The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

Two days later.

Ma Shangfei rushed into the office again.

This time, his expression was even more confident than before.

"General Jiang!"

"All tests are complete!"

"Everyone has run through it!"

Ma Shangfei sniffed, somewhat impatiently.

"The entire company has thoroughly experienced it. Everyone agrees that the plot has no logical flaws, the emotional transitions are flawless, it's just... the aftertaste is too strong, some people are still addicted and can't pull themselves away. However, there are absolutely no bugs, it's very smooth!"

After he finished speaking, he even placed a test record on Jiang Bo's table.

Their attitude was extremely sincere; they practically had "I want to go online" written all over their faces.

Jiang Bo stroked his chin.

"Old Ma, what about compatibility?"

"Have you adapted it to be compatible? It works fine on PC, but what about an ultrawide monitor? Will the image be stretched or distorted?"

"Fully compatible, Mr. Jiang!"

Ma Shangfei smiled confidently, "Don't even mention an ultrawide monitor, it could easily handle even a ten-year-old CRT camera!"

"President Jiang, there's really nothing more to investigate!"

"We've already got tens of thousands of reservations, let's set the price and go live quickly!"

Good grief, all the reasons have been blocked.

Jiang Bo took a deep breath and slowly stood up.

"Look at you, you're in such a hurry again!"

"Old Ma..."

Jiang Bo's voice suddenly turned low.

"Mr. Jiang...?"

Ma Shangfei was stunned by this sudden aura.

"What do you think love is?"

Jiang Botou watched as he posed a fatal philosophical question.

Ma Shangfei's face froze for a moment. His relationship had been too rushed, and he was somewhat baffled by this sudden question.

"President Jiang, I'm already married. My wife and I met through a blind date, we liked each other, paid the dowry, bought a house, and started living together. What else could it be? It's just about the daily grind."

Jiang Bo slowly turned around, looking heartbroken.

"That's the problem, Old Ma!"

"Do you think that once you've written the code, run the program, and passed the tests, the game is perfect?"

"Do you think that just because you're married, you understand what true love is?"

You're wrong! Utterly wrong!

Jiang Bo walked directly up to Ma Shangfei.

"What we've created isn't a cold, impersonal program! We've created 'Love Requires Talking to People'! It's about the most complex, delicate, and irrational human emotions!"

"Love is such a complicated thing!"

"It's not just a compromise made for reproduction and survival!"

"It is more than just a resonance of the human soul; it is a dopamine rush, and an extreme hallucination produced by the brain as a self-protective mechanism after suffering severe psychological trauma! It encompasses suspicion, fanaticism, sadness, and even an escape from the real world!"

"The complex topic of love, the psychological metaphors hidden behind the filters... this question deserves another ten days, or even a hundred days, to study it carefully and refine it repeatedly!"

"Alright, Lao Ma, you go back first. Take your team and rewatch some classic romantic movies, read some psychology books, and maybe even go home and have a passionate reunion with your wife!"

"We must be responsible to our players, and even more so to the word 'love'!"

"..."

Hearing Jiang Bo's words, Ma Shangfei stood there, somewhat dazed. He even wondered if he had been too impetuous.

Having worked in the industry for so many years, and at Chaoxi Games for so long, he had never seen a producer like President Jiang who was so concerned about a game that was already completed and ready to be launched and monetized at any time, and who pursued the ultimate perfection so much!

President Jiang used to value games, but that kind of emphasis was more like strategic control.

But this time was different; he started repeatedly emphasizing emotions, immersion, and compatibility...

Ma Shangfei looked at Jiang Bo and was suddenly moved.

President Jiang really values ​​this game!

Perhaps, this book, "Love Requires Talking to People," holds a completely different meaning in President Jiang's mind.

Could it be that President Jiang was hurt in a relationship before?

Or perhaps he also has some mild depression?

Wow... This is hard to fathom!

However, since President Jiang said we should study it first, let's study it some more!

……

In the following days, the atmosphere in Chaoxi Games' office became quite bizarre.

In order to complete the task as soon as possible and launch it online, Ma Shangfei really listened to Jiang Bo's philosophical questioning and carried it out thoroughly.

This time, everyone in the company was forced into a state of research on dating.

Every morning when I arrive at work, Richard Clayderman's "Wedding in a Dream" plays in the office area.

The previously cluttered workspaces now have some pink scented candles.

A group of programmers who usually wear plaid shirts were all wearing headphones and frantically wiping away tears in front of their computer screens.

"Waaaaah... Jack, don't sink, Jack!"

"This damn love! Why didn't Fujii Itsuki in 'Love Letter' confess sooner?! I'm a grown man, and I'm totally smitten!"

"Everyone should go see 'Your Name'! This kind of connection across time and space is what truly resonates with the human soul!"

"I can't take it anymore! I need to listen to a sweet song to cheer myself up, cough... I have a simple question, what is love... until the sea dries up and the rocks crumble~"

In the office, various romance-related movies and music played in turn.

What about movies like "The Classic," "La La Land," and "Flipped"?

Everyone transformed into a top-notch film critic, watching from morning till night. For them, every film they watched was a long, drawn-out night.

Moreover, Lao Ma practiced what he preached.

These past few days, he's been ordering his wife a slightly sweet first milk tea of ​​autumn every day, and he even sent her a special message.

Honey, if I had remained silent during my blind date back then, would you have thought I had a lot of stories to tell?

His wife replied very quickly.

Ugh... I'll feel like you didn't like me.

Ma Shangfei fell silent.

well.

There are still significant compatibility issues between real-life romance and romance in movies and TV shows!

It seems that President Jiang was right to have him refine it further!

But this didn't diminish the strong atmosphere of romance research permeating the entire Chaoxi Games office.

Shen Zhaozhao felt extremely speechless looking at the group of people in the company every day.

These scenes are as if the confession wall has been miraculously restored!

But what confused her even more was the boss's office, which was just a wall away.

……

It's completely different from the pink bubble-filled, tearful style of the outside world.

Jiang Bo's office was nothing short of hell on earth, a meat grinder on the battlefield.

"Fire in the hole!!"

"Da da da da da da...!"

"RPG...stealth!!"

"BOOM...!!"

From morning till night, Jiang Bo's office is filled with a constant loop of movies and documentaries depicting the most brutal wars in human history.

Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down, Hacksaw Ridge, Band of Brothers...

Every time Shen Zhaozhao went to report, the moment she opened the door, she felt as if she wasn't at work, but had been transported to Omaha Beach during the Normandy landings.

Meanwhile, their great General Jiang was sitting in front of the screen amidst the smoke and fire, sipping tea and frantically taking notes in his notebook.

This has led to the bizarre and surreal ecosystem that Chaoxi Games currently enjoys:

My left ear hears the film critic outside sobbing: "She ran, he chased, they both had no way to escape..."

He overheard a voice from outside the boss's office through his right ear: "Second Battalion Commander! Give me full firepower!"

Half of it is seawater, and half of it is fire.

Half of him is a love-obsessed person, and the other half is a war fanatic.

Is love inherently a form of warfare?
