Chapter 37 - Life and Death

Goose Flying Car Studio

At this moment, all the programmers were dumbstruck. A few of them were holding their heads and wailing.

They had just banned Route 56 last night and slept. When they woke up, Shen Lei came to them and released the bug in Summoner Canyon.

"Who is it? Who is it? Is it deliberately targeting us?"

"I can't take it anymore. I haven't even left the company's entrance until now. I'm going crazy!"

"Is this f*cking over? Why was there another one right after the first one? Was this something that humans would do?"

"Alright."

At this moment, Shen Lei, who was at the back, stopped them. He muttered,

"The ban on Route 56 has seriously affected the company's interests. If new bugs continue to appear, it will be a devastating blow to the entire game. We have to think of a way to stop the source of the bugs."

When the others heard this, they also calmed down.

"Supervisor, are we going to call the police?"

"No."

Shen Lei shook his head and said,

"There's no point in calling the police. This bug itself is a technical error on our part. The fundamental error is on us. If we leave the bug alone and go to the police to arrest the person who discovered the bug, what's the point?"

"This is like going to steal, but the owner's house is empty. In the end, we call the police and ask them to arrest the owner because they are too poor?"

".."

Shen Lei covered his forehead." Something like that.""

The people present were all elites in the industry. After saying that, they understood that calling the police would not help. It would even affect the game's reputation and be scolded by the players for not doing anything.

"Then what should we do?"

" Unless we recruit more programmers to fix bugs," someone said with a blank expression." How else can we solve this situation?" He's not the one in the wrong, we are. Can we still retaliate?"

"I can."

Shen Lei suddenly thought of something and stood up." But this matter can't be solved by us alone. We need the help of other departments."

After saying that, he looked around and saw the tired employees present. He said seriously,

"Cheer up. The moment of life and death for the company has arrived!"

As soon as he said this, everyone was shocked and immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Wait for my news here. I'll go and ask the general manager!"

Shen Lei quickened his pace and left the technical department.

Half an hour later, Luo Wei, the general manager of Goose Flying Car Studio, called for an emergency department meeting. All the supervisors had to be present within an hour. Those who did not show up would be fired.

The company implemented a 10 am to 5 pm system. It was not even 9 pm yet. Once the news was out, all the department heads of Goose Flying Car rushed to the company regardless of where they were, whether they were in bed or in the toilet.

Fortunately, the morning rush hour was approaching the end of the day, so they were not stuck in a traffic jam. The original rule of going to work at ten in the morning was to avoid the morning rush hour. This early emergency meeting almost scared them to death.

When everyone rushed into the meeting room, regardless of gender, they were all drenched in cold sweat.

"Very good, since everyone is here."

Luo Wei, who had arrived at the company at seven o'clock in the morning, sat in the main seat. He crossed his hands and rested his chin on them. He said in a deep voice,

"Then let's begin. This meeting is about everyone's life and death."

The moment he said this, other than the public relations department and the technical department, all the supervisors 'pupils dilated in shock.

They had only slept for a moment. How was it related to life and death?

What exactly happened?

At this moment, Shen Lei, who had been organizing documents in the conference room, stood up and connected a video to the big screen. After clicking play, he said,

"The cause of everything came from this video…"

..

At noon, the door of the conference room was opened, and all the supervisors walked out.

Everyone's eyes were extremely solemn.

When Shen Lei mentioned that if the bug continued to spread, the game would lose 90% of its paying players, they realized the seriousness of the matter.

This was indeed related to their life and death!

After coming out, all the supervisors quickly returned to their posts and began to implement the final decision made in the meeting:

1. The public relations department was responsible for the docking of the Beep Station, deleting videos related to bugs, preventing the videos from spreading, and applying to the head office to put pressure on the Beep Station when necessary.

The White-bellied Goose Corporation was the major shareholder of Beep Station and had a lot of say.

2. The technical department temporarily suspended all the projects in their hands. All the programmers tried their best to fix the bugs to prevent the company from causing greater losses.

3. The legal department revised the original user contract and added new regulations: If the game bug was maliciously spread, the company had the right to hand over the bug communicator to the relevant department and demand that the communicator compensate the company for all losses.

4...

..

Those who could enter the Goose Flying Car were the elites of the industry.

Once this group of people gathered together, the power they could unleash was definitely not to be underestimated.

In just two hours, he had made a response.

The effects of the first and second rules were very obvious.

It was necessary to delete the video about the bug and stop the bug from spreading. Otherwise, they would suffer a huge loss if they delayed it for even a second.

It was also a must to fix the bug so that it would no longer pose a threat to the game environment.

However, the third condition was the most important. It was proposed by Shen Lei. When the head of the legal department heard it, he was ashamed. As a member of the legal department, he could not think of such a method.

However, although the decision was made at the meeting, the company's revision of the contract regulations needed to be reviewed by the relevant departments.

It would take time, but with the power of the White Belly Goose Company, it was only a matter of time before the review was passed. Moreover, the speed was faster than other companies. It would take a few days at the latest. Normally, it would take a few months.

Once this rule was implemented, even if players discovered a bug, they could not spread the bug. Otherwise, they would be punished by the law.

The other decision was to do some supplementary things, purely to not let them be too idle.

Otherwise, at the moment of life and death, would you be slacking off like that?

Public Relations Department.

Supervisor Yuan Haichuan walked into the office and assigned several tasks in succession.

He contacted Beep Station's official website and deleted the video of the bug. At the same time, he banned the video account of the person who spread the bug…

Although the contract had not yet fallen, as long as the company put pressure on Beep website, they could find a reason to temporarily ban it, such as a dispute. The main purpose was to prevent the communicator from continuing to publish new bugs.

After Shen Lei's investigation, they already knew that this UP had started to be called a BUG streamer. He used the bonus mechanism to call on netizens to vote for him when they discovered bugs.

There were tens of millions of netizens. Even they couldn't guarantee that the netizens wouldn't find a bug, so it was necessary to ban this streamer!

Riches Garden.

Zhou Tianhao played a dozen more rounds and upgraded the Summoner League from Gold Level 5 to Gold Level 1. His win rate was still a shocking 100%.

He looked at the time and realized that it was already 2 pm.

"I stayed up all night again. I have to change this habit."

After Zhou Tianhao made up his mind to change his routine, he picked up his phone and opened Beep Station to see how many views he had.

However, as soon as he clicked on it, he realized that his video account actually showed a big red exclamation mark!

The next sentence made him very confused.

" Your account is involved in a dispute and has been temporarily banned!'

Zhou Tianhao: "???"
