Forcing Me to Be Reborn?!
Chapter 338 - Chapter 338 Chapter 263 Dig a Hole and Jump In

Chapter 338: Chapter 263: Dig a Hole and Jump In Chapter 338: Chapter 263: Dig a Hole and Jump In In room 212 of the East Building, the employees of the gaming studio looked at each other in bewilderment.

Even Wei Bo, who always thought he could grasp the boss’s deep meanings, was now dumbfounded.

“Our ‘Sheep’ game is thriving right now!

The number of daily users is exploding, and the buzz index across the internet continues to climb.

The situation is looking so good right now, with more and more people recommending this game to their friends.

Actually, it had been mentioned before, that in Cheng Zhu’s past life, ‘Sheep’ became massively popular because it was the right time and the right place; everyone was cooped up at home, and things that went viral online would get a lot of people to try them out.

But in reality, even a simple mobile game like this transmits well person-to-person in real life, and the intensity isn’t small.

For instance, when you see a co-worker playing it, or friends and classmates around you playing, some people will download it to try it out as well.

Online transmission definitely has a stronger impact, but offline spread adds a certain boost as well.

From Wei Bo’s perspective, shouldn’t we be doing everything possible to maintain the balance of the game right now?

Because it’s so hard to complete, who knows if there are people out there thinking about how to create hacks for it, beat it, and then profit from those hacks!

In fact, when ‘Sheep’ first blew up, there were so many people selling hacks on Taobao!

Unbelievably, they all sold like crazy!

Even though the game is not as popular as before, if you search for hacks on Taobao, there are still some sellers with thousands of sales, and countless shops have hundreds of sales.

Not to mention during its explosive phase, those selling the hacks made a killing.

Cheng Zhu didn’t get into this stuff to sell them on Taobao and make a bit of money, of course.

He had his own considerations.

Wei Bo, as the team leader, swallowed his saliva with difficulty and asked, “Boss, are you sure?”

In his view, shouldn’t we be focusing on preventing hacks?

The game ‘Sheep’ really has a low production barrier, which also means it’s easily compromised.

Wei Bo always felt this was a major concern the game team would need to address going forward.

But what did we just hear?

The boss wants to sabotage his own game!

Good grief, our game is doing so well right now, let me just go ahead and make some trash myself.

Pfft! Just create a huge loophole!

Cheng Zhu looked at Wei Bo and others, nodded seriously, and said, “I’m sure, let the hack leak out.”

These college students still couldn’t manage their expressions well; there were complex looks on several faces.

Madness, the boss has definitely lost it!

But as always, Cheng Zhu’s word was final in the studio; when he gave an order, the rest had no choice but to follow.

After giving these instructions, Cheng Zhu left the studio, leaving the employees there discussing heatedly.

“Brother Bo, what on earth is the boss thinking?”

“Yeah! Previously, when he told us to make our own hacks, I thought there was a significant reason, but it turns out it’s just to let them leak?”

“Do we really have to do this?”

Wei Bo shook his head and said, “I can’t figure out why either, but since the boss said so, we should just do it.”

Another person turned to Dong Dong and others, asking, “Dong, you guys are roommates with the boss, what do you say?”

“What the heck!” Dong Dong was also completely puzzled: “But from experience, I tell you, Brother Zhu always has his reasons.”

He had been proven wrong by Cheng Zhu more times than anyone else there and was getting quite used to it.

Apart from that, he wondered to himself, “What roommates? He hardly ever comes back to the dorm, probably living it up out there! He must be sleeping with some girl we don’t know about.”

For college students, even freshmen, some of them live quite the flamboyant life already.

If Brother Zhu wasn’t living some kind of magical life behind the scenes, I wouldn’t believe it!

Right now, within the gaming studio, people had varying thoughts.

These past few days, everyone had been full of energy, feeling infinitely motivated in whatever they were doing.

But now, to leak the hack, it really made everyone feel a bit painful inside, like digging our own grave and then jumping in to be buried alive.

Damn it, where did our wise and invincible boss go!

…

In a high school in Zhejiang Province, senior year student Meng Yiyi was secretly playing with her phone in the school bathrooms, dressed in her school uniform.

The school didn’t allow students to bring phones, but prohibition never stopped anyone, and every class had a few who sneaked their phones in; every homeroom teacher’s office drawer also housed a few confiscated ones.

In fact, sneaking phones in wasn’t the hard part, the trouble was finding places to charge them when they ran out of battery.

At that moment, after turning her phone on, Meng Yiyi saw a friend request pop up on QQ.

“Meng Yiyi, may I get to know you?”

She ignored the friend request outright.

In this high school, Meng Yiyi was definitely considered a campus goddess.

She was prettier than most of the girls at the school and had a pure, innocent quality about her, like a delicate little white flower, very popular at this age.

Many old lechers might have had this realization: I’m sorry, I used to say I didn’t like flashy, but now I see I was just pretending!

Of course, the pure type of girl has her audience at any young age, but it’s just more invincible during the school years.

Besides, Meng Yiyi knew how to dress better than her female classmates.

She always appeared bare-faced at school, because in this era, if high schoolers wear makeup, they would often be gossiped about behind their back, and people would speak ill of such a girl, escalating it to a behavior issue.

Not like a few years later, when more high school girls began wearing makeup.

But this didn’t mean she couldn’t look more refined than others.

Her eyebrows were perfectly groomed.

She knew how to style her hair better too, even a simple ponytail looked more attractive when she did it.

And her demeanor was a bit too invincible; even when teachers criticized her, their tone would soften.

This resulted in several boys always trying by all means to get her QQ number, WeChat ID, or phone number.

But these boys seemed very childish to her, even… quite useless and helpless!

She often encountered situations where she would politely accept the friend request, but the other side acted as if they were severely brain-damaged, daring to confess their feelings for her, but refusing to reveal who they were, even too scared to say which class.

In situations where they didn’t dare to share any personal information about themselves, they still often took the initiative to chat with her and then engage in all sorts of awkward conversations.

Not to mention, there were plenty of such people during student days, regardless of gender.

Adding them as friends seemed to exhaust all their courage.

As for telling the other party their name, who they are, which class they belong to, they truly didn’t dare.

Whether out of timidity, inferiority, or just being green…

Little did they know that all this became a kind of inequality in the eyes of the other party.

You know who I am, you know my name, you know what I look like, but I know nothing about you.

If it were some less pursued girls, suddenly experiencing this crush of adolescence, they might still engage enthusiastically.

But for someone like Yiyi, who had lots of admirers, always encountering this was annoying.

In fact, she herself was the type to gather her courage to strive and seize, hence she even more felt indifferent to such behavior.

Right now, she directly ignored this friend request.

Having met Cheng Zhu, she increasingly found the boys at her high school both childish and laughable.

Someone just a year or two older than you guys, what is he doing?

And look at you guys, putting on a show when I walk by the basketball court.

She even encountered people who intentionally threw the ball towards her, which was really exasperating.

After closing QQ, Meng Yiyi then opened her Weibo.

She sneaked into the bathroom to play with her phone, mainly to check Weibo.

“My follower count has gone up again!” Meng Yiyi saw the increase in followers on her Weibo and a satisfied smile spread across her face.

“Though it’s not as fast as the last few days, it’s still very good!”

However, she didn’t attribute this to the video Zhang Qiqi had posted.

She thought it was all thanks to Cheng Zhu.

Besides, what she enjoyed most was reading the comments from her fans.

Yiyi usually updated her Weibo once a week, posting some photos on weekends.

Many new fans would go through her previous Weibo posts after following her.

Those who came specifically to follow her were clearly very taken by her beauty and demeanor.

Hence, she occasionally saw comments like these.

“I think the cousin is even prettier than the cousin!”

“The cousin and cousin are not the same style, I somehow like the cousin a bit more.”

“Little sister is very cute!”

“I went to see the school beauty play games, but was completely captivated by the younger sister all the way, she’s so adorable!”

These comments could make her day.

“I wonder if Cheng Zhu likes the cousin or the younger cousin?” Such a thought sprang up in this tender little white flower’s mind.

Too bad she could only go to Hang City for university next year.

Although Communication University is very close to Technology University, and proximity creates beauty, that’s still something for next year.

“I hope you don’t fall in love though,” she thought to herself.
