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

Inside the office.

Jiang Bo is now in a difficult situation and is extremely panicked.

These past few days, he's been watching the expectation value on the system panel rise rapidly while also looking at the calendar, so worried he's been pulling his hair out.

Old Ma is a very pragmatic person.

Just yesterday, he sent him another work progress report.

"President Jiang, I have mastered the art of love! I am ready to launch this magnificent work to the market and let it be a spiritual baptism for players!"

Will this work?!

Jiang Bo felt he had no reason to refuse anymore!

We can't keep using the same excuse forever; those employees aren't stupid.

But if "Love Requires Talking to People" were released now, given the current size of Chaoxi Games, would all those eagerly waiting players be able to get their fill?

Who can eat one bowl of noodles? If other people saw this, they would think that Chaoxi Games couldn't afford to provide it!

If not enough content is pushed out, it will inevitably lead to a huge waste and loss of traffic!

"It must be a seamless transition!"

"We absolutely need new works!"

This is the main reason why Jiang Bo has been watching movies these past few days!

He has done his research and found that male players make up a large proportion of Chaoxi Games' current user profile!

For boys, what games are the most appealing?

The answer is simple: war! Guns! A steel torrent!

Men's happiness can sometimes be so simple it's outrageous.

When I was a kid, I could pick up a twig from the ground and call myself a sword saint.

They walked and hacked their way through the streets and fields! They didn't even blink...

The more war movies Jiang Bo watched these past few days, the more he felt there was something more to them.

The appeal of war-themed games to male gamers is too direct.

It doesn't need much explanation.

A cannon shot, a countdown, a mission objective—and the player will naturally stick their head in.

This type of game is very tense, with clear objectives and a grander scale!

Jiang Bo had already researched this; in this world, the top games with the most online players all do it this way!

The problem is that there are too many war games on the market now.

A thrilling, adrenaline-pumping ride, yes.

There are also hardcore games that involve tactical stealth.

What kind of game is he going to make? Jiang Bo scratched his head in confusion.

"There's not enough time..."

Jiang Bo glanced at the time on the computer and felt inexplicably anxious.

It's been so long, and the new folder still isn't created!

Eh...

"Time... War..."

"time……"

"war……"

Jiang Bo kept repeating these two words to himself, recalling the moment in the movie when the deafening sound of gunfire intertwined with the rhythmic countdown of time.

Jiang Bo had a sudden flash of inspiration, and a chilling sensation that made his scalp tingle instantly spread throughout his body.

found it!

He suddenly thought of a very interesting direction.

In traditional war games, mission countdowns only create pressure.

Time's up, mission failed.

But what if the countdown isn't just a limitation, but a resource?

Jiang Bo's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

In traditional war games, time limits are like a sword of Damocles hanging over the players' heads.

The countdown has ended, the mission has failed, please try again.

But what is time on a real battlefield?

It's life! It's firepower! It's space!

For every minute you hold your position, your main force can retreat an extra kilometer! For every second you blow up the bridge, you can cut off the reinforcements of an entire enemy armored division!

If we consider time as the absolute core of the dynamic evolution of the entire battle situation...

That solves it, doesn't it? I've got an idea!

A meeting is needed! We must have a meeting immediately!

……

Ten minutes later.

meeting room.

Everyone sat neatly in their seats, their faces filled with barely suppressed excitement.

Everyone felt like they had finally become mothers-in-law after waiting for so long; President Jiang had finally given his word!

At this meeting, it's certain that the release date for "Love Requires Talking to People" will be officially set!

How wonderful! Graduation is finally here!

Amidst everyone's expectant gazes, Jiang Bo slowly walked into the conference room.

Jiang Bo sat in the main seat, looking at the group of energetic employees whose eyes revealed a hint of expectation, and nodded to himself.

The troops are in high spirits and ready to fight!

"Cough cough."

Jiang Bo cleared his throat and glanced at everyone.

"Everyone has worked hard."

Old Ma's spirits lifted.

It's not hard work! This is all part of the job that needs to be done to get the game launched!

During this period, he not only did well at work, but his relationship with his wife also improved dramatically. The two seemed to have found an experience they had never had before, and he now looks forward to leaving get off work every day!

Now, President Jiang is finally going to give this game a formal explanation!

Jiang Bo continued:

"Everyone has had a tough time during this period."

"Game development has always been a difficult, painful, and even soul-searching process. Every step requires us to think about it repeatedly."

Then, Jiang Bo raised his head slightly, his gaze seemingly piercing through the ceiling and looking towards the distant river of history, before changing the subject.

"During this time, I've thought a lot."

"From the city walls of Ping'an County, I saw the beaches of Normandy... From the icy landscape of Stalingrad, I saw the ruins of Lebanon..."

"I have learned about countless wars. I have seen humanity under the fire of gunfire, and flesh and blood before the torrent of steel."

The air in the conference room suddenly fell silent.

? ? ? ?

Shen Zhaozhao blinked, turned to look at Ma Shangfei beside her, and frantically conveyed a signal through her eyes:

Brother Ma? What's going on?! Shouldn't we be talking about romance? How come we've suddenly gone from Ping'an County to Normandy, and then all the way to Lebanon?

Could it be that the biggest mystery of this game is about to be revealed: the protagonist's PTSD was caused by the Italian bombardment?!

Is the protagonist a special forces soldier?

Ma Shangfei was also completely bewildered. What's wrong with President Jiang? What's going on? Has he gone mad? Did he watch "Bright Sword" and get the wrong channel?

Jiang Bo was completely oblivious to the increasingly dazed looks on his employees' faces; he remained engrossed in his grand narrative.

"This world is full of uncertainty and cruelty! You never know what will happen next."

"The artillery fire may fall, the positions may be lost, the closest people may leave, and the things you believe in most may crumble."

"However, our confidence in making a good game at Chaoxi Games..."

"Yet, like a bonfire in the night, it will never go out!"

The crowd below was stunned.

President Jiang's words are certainly inspiring, but why do they sound so out of place?

They waited for ages, just waiting for Jiang Bo to nod and go online.

After waiting for a long time, President Jiang gave him a talk about a community with a shared future for mankind.

Who can handle this?

Looking at everyone's expressions, Jiang Bo felt a little helpless.

Why don't you understand?

Aren't these people usually quite quick to understand things?

Was he not clear enough?

War! Fighting!

"It seems we need to use a more common analogy."

Jiang Bo sighed and decided to change course, using relatable metaphors to awaken them.

"Let's put it this way!"

Jiang Bo slammed his hand on the table.

"Whether a dish is good or not isn't determined by how fancy its presentation is, but by whether it makes you want to eat more rice!"

"I feel that the dishes we're currently preparing at Chaoxi Games, while exquisite, aren't plentiful enough! They're far from satisfying everyone!"

"Don't you think this is life?"

Everyone was even more confused.

Who the hell thinks life is a dish?
