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

Two days later.

Star City, the Fireworks Story Factory.

Liu Dazhi arrived at the company early in the morning.

At this time of day, he's usually downstairs slurping noodles, casually sending a message in the author group saying, "Everyone update early today," and then pretending he's already started working.

But today is different; the people who play games day and night are coming today.

Last night, Liu Dazhi spent half a day watching videos related to the Chaoxi game to get a thorough understanding of it.

The more he looked, the more he felt that this CEO Jiang of Chaoxi Games must understand content. At least, they weren't a company that just took an IP and knew how to reskin it and make gacha games!

With this, Liu Dazhi felt even more confident.

Soon, half an hour later.

Editor-in-Chief Liu Dazhi, along with two core editors, were already waiting at the front desk.

Upon seeing Jiang Bo, Liu Dazhi immediately greeted him with a beaming smile, extending his hands warmly.

"President Jiang! I've heard so much about you!"

"I've also tried your company's games, and they're truly mind-blowing!"

"Editor-in-Chief Liu, you're too kind. I've heard a lot about Huohua's influence in the industry, so I brought people here today specifically to learn from them."

Jiang Bo was very serious, and his skill in mutual flattery was second nature to him.

"This must be Mr. Shen... Mr. Shen is truly young and promising!"

"This way, please. Let's take a quick tour of our company first..."

"Mr. Shen...?"

Her? When did I get promoted and why didn't you tell me?

Shen Zhaozhao's lips twitched almost imperceptibly, and her toes instinctively clenched into her shoes.

Liu Dazhi led the way familiarly.

"Come on, let me show you both the content production process for our fireworks project..."

The group entered the office area of ​​Fireworks.

At dozens of workstations, a group of authors and editors were frantically typing away at their computer screens, the sound of mechanical keyboards pounding like raindrops on banana leaves.

"President Jiang, President Shen, let me briefly introduce our company, Fireworks. Our studio has been established for seven years, currently has 37 signed authors, 8 core authors, and 21 authors who update regularly, mainly focusing on the male-oriented genre."

"The genres we are currently focusing on are mainly fantasy, xianxia, ​​suspense, and infinite flow. As you know, these genres are naturally suitable for gamification, as they have maps, characters, progression paths, and dungeons."

As Liu Dazhi spoke, he felt much more confident.

Although their company is not large, it is very professional!

Today, we must let Chaoxi Games see the professionalism of Huahuo.

Jiang Bo nodded politely.

"Yes, that's good."

Upon hearing this, Liu Dazhi became even more excited.

"President Jiang, to be honest, online literature has now entered a highly industrialized era."

"We at Fireworks have a very mature big data scoring model. From the entry point of the three golden chapters to the control of the reader's emotional curve, and the setting of the golden finger, we have strict procedures."

"Even beginners, as long as they follow our method, will definitely find a market!"

"..."

Jiang Bo walked along with his hands in his pockets, listening as he went. As he listened, his initially inquisitive gaze gradually turned into one of boredom.

He came all this way to learn how to manage user engagement and anticipation.

Why does this feel like it's gone a bit off track?

It's like a chef who wants to learn how to stir-fry over high heat being taken to visit a fully automated steamed bun factory.

You are indeed awesome, but this is not something he should learn at all!

Isn't this just a complete waste of time and energy?

Liu Dazhi was completely unaware of the disappointment Jiang Bo felt; he assumed Jiang Bo was simply putting on airs like a big shot from the client's side.

"Come on, Mr. Jiang, let's go to the conference room. I'll show you something more substantial!"

The group arrived at a spacious conference room and took their seats.

On the table, a pile of mature IP project proposals were already neatly arranged.

Liu Dazhi pulled out a chair and got straight to the point:

"President Jiang, let's not beat around the bush. Everyone can see the current R&D capabilities of Chaoxi Games."

"These are some of our most popular works right now, as well as some successful examples from the past. Feel free to browse and choose whatever you like!"

"..."

Liu Dazhi spoke fluently and eloquently.

After the introduction, seeing Jiang Bo's silence, Liu Dazhi assumed he was giving a serious evaluation and quickly lowered his voice to say:

"Mr. Jiang, there's no need to rush. You can take your time looking at these projects; we at Huohua have plenty of content!"

"As long as you feel a certain direction is suitable, our authors and editors can participate in subsequent communication. We can organize anything you need, including outlines, character information, and world-building materials."

Shen Zhaozhao held her teacup, her eyes looking at the ceiling.

This is a huge misunderstanding, a really huge misunderstanding.

The two sides can now chat across servers completely.

Jiang Bo finally realized that if he sat any longer, he might be forced to listen to all of this today.

Listening to Liu Dazhi's still passionate introduction, Jiang Bo finally couldn't help but raise his hand to rub his temples, interrupting him.

"Editor-in-Chief Liu, I have deeply felt the depth and professionalism of Fireworks. These IPs are indeed very promising."

"However, the scale and scope of these projects are quite extensive, and we need to consider them carefully."

Upon hearing Jiang Bo's words, Liu Dazhi immediately displayed his high emotional intelligence and stood up.

"I understand!"

"How about this, you two discuss this over here first. Take a close look at these notebooks, and we'll add contact information later so we can stay in touch."

After saying that, Liu Dazhi turned and left, giving the two of them a quiet space to discuss.

After Liu Dazhi left and the door to the lounge closed, Jiang Bo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Whew... this tour was so tiring!

He's never been this tired, not even when he's having a meeting at his own company.

At least in his own company, he was the one who led others astray.

Today, before he even had a chance to speak, Hanabi had already proactively led him down the path of IP adaptation.

This is so embarrassing! But Editor-in-Chief Liu is a nice guy, so I'll have to find a way to steer the conversation back on track later.

As Jiang Bo was thinking, the door to the lounge was suddenly pushed open gently.

A young man peeked in.

The man was in his early twenties, carrying a black backpack and holding a resume. He was clearly taken aback when he saw Jiang Bo sitting on the sofa.

The air was silent for two seconds.

The young man asked cautiously:

"Excuse me... is this where you wait for your interview?"

Jiang Bo was also stunned.

He glanced at the resume in the young man's hand, then at the teacup in his own.

"Who are you?"

The young man quickly walked in, closing the door behind him, his tone somewhat reserved.

"I'm here for an interview."

"The receptionist told me to wait in the lounge, is this it?"

After saying that, he glanced at Jiang Bo again, as if he had finally found his people, and asked in a low voice:

"Hey bro, are you here for an interview too? You're dressed... way too formally! Are you applying for the editor-in-chief position?"
