Universe Infinite Canteen.

Chapter 345: Shifting the blame
Baldy introduced everyone around him, and then said to Malu, "We have five more colleagues, all from the marketing department. They went out to work earlier, and they should be here soon."

Before he finished speaking, another taxi stopped outside the restaurant and five guys who were obviously from the Chiling project team got out.

After arriving at the destination, the taxi driver was obviously relieved. He dropped the passenger off without even taking the money, then stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

The five people walked into the Universe Infinity Cafeteria, and the small restaurant was immediately filled with murderous intent.

After the five people greeted Malu and shook hands, all the employees of the Chiling Project Department took their seats under the leadership of Tutuzi.

Malu winked at Ma Youyou and they walked into the kitchen together.

"What's the matter, boss?" The girl was not afraid at all when she saw the group of bandits outside who claimed to be from the game project team. She kept looking at Baldy and others curiously.

"I will receive today's guests. You can help in the kitchen." Malu said.

"Boss, are you worried about me?" Ma Youyou blinked.

"No, it's just that the kitchen needs more manpower."

Seeing that Ma Youyou wanted to say something, Ma Lu directly reached out to stop her, "I'm the boss, listen to me."

"Okay, then boss, if you're in danger, just call me. I can go back to an earlier time to save you."

"it is good."

After Ma Lu settled Ma Youyou down, he picked up two plates of cold dishes and walked out.

Because the ingredients have been prepared in advance, Lao Wang cooks very quickly.

Half of the dishes were served in a short while, and by the time the main dish, Unity is Strength, was served.

Baldy picked up the glass of cat urine beer and stood up.

"Well, let me just say a few words."

"Please give us your instructions, producer." The remaining thirteen people said in unison, and leaned forward slightly, pretending to listen attentively.

“I don’t need to tell you how much the company values ​​this project. Before we started, the investor talked to me and asked us to make sure Chiling is done well.

“And you all know the company’s situation. In addition to our Chiling project team, there are more than a dozen other project teams. We are both brothers and competitors.

"Those who do well will definitely receive generous rewards from the company, and will be able to move up a level. I know some of you also want my position as a producer.

"If I get promoted, the person who takes over will definitely be chosen from among you. Otherwise..."

The bald man's tone sank, and he swept his eyes over all his subordinates present, saying grimly, "Whoever makes me lose face in the company, I will make sure that person never loses face again."

When Malu heard this, he spat the Coke he had just drunk onto the floor tiles.

They say it’s not a club. How can a game company threaten its employees with death?

Hearing the noise coming from Malu, the members of the Chiling Group all looked over here.

Malu quickly lowered his head and pretended to put away his phone.

After a moment, the bald man continued, "Anyway, this is what happened. Cheer up, okay?!"

"Yes, producer!"

Another uniform answer. Baldy was very satisfied, but still did not pick up his chopsticks. He turned to look at the five people from the marketing department and asked, "How is the promotion going? How many players have been attracted to play?"

One of the men, who only had four fingers on his left hand, hesitated and said, “Well… producer, we have been actively exploring the market these past two days, but the results are still not ideal.

"I found 9 people yesterday and pulled in 14 today, but... the conversion rate is a bit low."

"How low?" Baldy frowned.

"Uh, there's only one left."

After the 4-fingered man said this, even the millipede who was pretending to be slacking off at the counter felt that the temperature around him seemed to have dropped by 1 degree.

Not to mention the table of people who faced the producer’s wrath.

Fortunately, the bald man finally controlled himself and said word by word, "Then, have you analyzed which place the problem is?!"

"It's definitely not from the marketing department. We've been working very hard to recruit people 24 hours a day." Another younger woman in the marketing department muttered.

"Coconut Milk Jelly, what do you mean by this?" The copywriter Xiao Xiaowei was angry, "Are you implying that we didn't do a good job?"

Beigong Meng snorted coldly, "Don't include me, I'm a top artist, players say I'm riding the planner in C."

"The responsibility is definitely not mine, there is nothing wrong with my numbers." Meng Mengda also quickly passed the buck today, "They are all 1:1 real replicas, and you were the one who made the decision, boss."

"What do you mean? Are you trying to say that I didn't complete the level well?" I was the worst in kindergarten and I was not happy about it.

"Is it possible that players must first play the level before they can criticize it? The people in front of you didn't send anyone into my level, so you can blame me?"

Seeing that his team members were about to quarrel, Baldy slammed the table and said, "Shut up, everyone!!!"

The restaurant suddenly fell silent again.

"I asked you to come here to pool your wisdom and find problems, not to let you complain to each other." The bald man looked disappointed. "Forget it, let's eat first and fill our stomachs first."

With a wave of the producer's hand, the depressing and solemn atmosphere in the air finally eased a little.

Everyone started to pick up food, but there was still a lot of distance between them. They just focused on eating and no one communicated with each other.

Seeing this scene, Baldy once again felt how difficult it was to lead the team.

However, when everyone started eating the main course, their originally frozen hearts gradually melted.

As the producer, Baldy was the first to reflect on himself, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lost my temper just now. I know you have all worked very hard."

Today, Meng Mengda hurriedly said, "Producer, please don't say that. We all know how much pressure you are under from above."

"That's right..." Everyone echoed, "After all, you are just a worker who has no choice but to work like us."

Xiao Xiaowei also had tears in his eyes, "Thinking back to the time when we brothers went through life and death together, fought in and out of the army, and made great achievements, but in the end, the big money was taken away by the higher-ups, and we were left with only a small amount.

"Now the times have changed. The people above have started to set up companies and project teams. We are being assigned to develop some stupid games. Sigh, I never thought that when I am old, I would still have to learn how to write copy."

"And you asked me to write something fascinating, with twists and turns and profound themes. Isn't that difficult? I'm not complaining about you, producer."

"Alas, it's all the fault of the higher-ups. I somehow became a numerical planner. How would I know what the numerical values ​​are? I can only fill them in randomly." Mengmengda also said today.
