However, this requires signing some guarantees, such as not taking the equipment around or doing anything improper.

When the experience center opened, it was a mixed bag, and inevitably some people with bad intentions came along.

Zhou Tiankuo had also taken these situations into consideration.

Zhou Tiankuo had no experience in managing and operating the experience center.

He only discovered after coming to this world that there are game experience centers of all sizes in the studios and even among individual designers.

However, they are different in size.

Some are officially certified, some are not.

Compared to others, the experience center operated by the "Starlight" Design Competition is actually quite excellent.

Unfortunately, its lifespan was not long either.

Initially, everyone was determined to make the studio a huge success when they created the experience center, and they put a lot of effort into its creation.

And those studios would initially put many new games on display in the experience center.

However, the overall level of game development in this world is still not good, and the experience center gradually became deserted.

Without visitors, the experience center loses its purpose and will soon be closed.

The location chosen for Tiankuo Studio's experience center is also in a busy downtown area. Zhou Tiankuo and Xia Tian had already seen it when they went to discuss the zoning last time.

He is quite satisfied with this position!

Because there is a university town near the experience center, this area is also considered the city's high-tech zone, and many technology and digital stores have opened here.

Zhou Tiankuo also plans to set up a special lounge for himself on the second floor.

Sometimes, if you don't want to go home, you can stay at the experience center, which is a rather novel experience.

"By the way, my system, I have something to ask you."

Zhou Tiankuo suddenly spoke.

"How long was the experience center supposed to be open, according to the original contract?"

The system replied: "Host, the experience center is scheduled to open for one year. We'll see how it performs before deciding whether to renew it."

After saying that, he added, "All expenses will be borne by Starlight."

Zhou Tiankuo's eyes lit up.

"Starlight" will take on this responsibility?

He was determined to fleece them!

The contract clearly states that as long as the experience center can still operate, all expenses will be covered by Xingguang, so why not open it?

Despite causing so much trouble for "Starlight" before, Zhou Tiankuo felt no remorse whatsoever.

On the contrary, I feel that this is what they should do. After all, they used those game awards to fool the players before.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tiankuo shrugged.

He opened his Weibo account, intending to summarize the key points from today's interview and post them.

But then I found that my private inbox had been flooded with messages from many people.

When he clicked in, he found that they were all game designers he had met while researching.

The purpose of these people sending him private messages was very clear.

That is, teach him a lesson!

[Your recent performance has been excellent, and the studio's results are also very good. But do you know that success attracts attention? If you want to survive in this industry, it's better to be more humble.]

[Tiankuo Studio has only released a few games, so why is it making things so difficult for Xingguang in the industry? They are senior figures in the industry, after all. Leave them a way out; you might need to find someone else in the future!]

[Brother, I understand how you feel. You're young and fearless, but even if you want to expand your studio significantly, you need to consider connections within the industry!]

Honestly, what you're doing is really making yourself look bad. You're going against so many senior figures in the industry. Do you know how much they worried about the public opinion surrounding you? And then you release a plagiarism accusation—how are you going to make them feel?

That's all for now, bro. If you ever need anything, feel free to contact me, but please keep a low profile. I'm genuinely afraid of getting dragged into this mess.

Zhou Tiankuo carefully read through some of these private messages.

Five big words and a question mark popped into his mind: Who the hell are you?

He checked the time again, and the timestamps indicated that the interviews were likely nearing their end.

Zhou Tiankuo recalled for a moment.

That should have been when they announced the game's production plan.

Zhou Tiankuo muttered, "What's going on... I don't recognize any of them, and now they're all coming to lecture me?"

And everyone thinks he's arrogant!

It seems that my interview today has angered some people.

They might think they look very impressive, but in Zhou Tiankuo's eyes, they are nothing but clowns.

"I was originally planning to reply to each one individually, but now I think I'll pass."

Let these private messages rot in the inbox!

Chapter 100 Xia Tian's Suggestion, New Ideas

The private messages that the designers sent to Zhou Tiankuo were only a part of the total.

When Zhou Tiankuo opened Weibo again that evening, he found even more people "denouncing" him.

The sales pitches are all pretty much the same.

I keep repeating the same few sentences, saying that I think Zhou Tiankuo is too arrogant.

Zhou Tiankuo lost all interest in posting on Weibo and simply closed Weibo to watch the live stream.

"Sorry, I went out today and got back a little late..."

Xia Tian has just started airing.

She didn't notice Zhou Tiankuo entering the live stream room; she was just talking to her viewers.

Seeing that Xia Tian was still full of energy, Zhou Tiankuo felt a little better.

It has to be admitted that Zhou Tiankuo felt his studio had only truly begun to develop after Xia Tian came to the studio.

"I'm still streaming PUBG today... I think I played all afternoon yesterday but didn't get a chicken dinner."

Xia Tian smiled.

[Whatever you like to do, we'll watch.]

You don't actually think I came here just to watch you play games, do you?

If you're not watching streamers play games, then what are you watching for?

The streamer is very pretty and cute; just watching her makes me feel good!

Does this girl stream every day? I'll start following her channel from now on.

Zhou Tiankuo glanced at the comments section, and almost all of them had this kind of style.

He also felt very gratified.

Xia Tian's decision to become a full-time live streamer was likely influenced by her own suggestions.

Moreover, it must be said that Xia Tian is quite capable at work.

She has been able to complete all the operational plans assigned to her during this period very well.

"Are you playing PUBG? I'll join too."

Zhou Tiankuo opened the game and sent Xia Tian a private message.

Of course, because she was live-streaming, everyone could see this message.

[The boss is inviting employees to play video games—there's a conspiracy!]

How come you guys always log on at the same time? Did you plan this?!

They work at the same studio, so it's normal for them to play games together...

[Wow, I suddenly have a bold guess: if Xia Tian only hangs out with people from the studio, then maybe her teammates will uncover even more big shots from Tiankuo Studio!]

[Let's not do this anymore. Tiankuo Studio has already said that it's best to avoid any more exposure...]

Zhou Tiankuo frowned as he looked at the comments section.

How could anyone try to obtain information about Tiankuo Studio using such methods?

Fortunately, I did a pretty good job of keeping it a secret.

Zhou Tiankuo entered the team voice chat: "Hello? Can you hear me?"

Xia Tian volunteered, "Sure. Boss, the experience center will be launched in a couple of days."

Mentioning this during the live stream was also a way to promote Tiankuo Studio.

Zhou Tiankuo deliberately chimed in, "Yes, in a few days everyone can come to the studio's experience center to play games."

He also runs Xia Tian's live stream, so he can see more comments.

Is the game launching in a few days a highly interactive game?

[Probably, considering it will be launched in the experience center...]

The expert seemed to have hinted at it before, saying it's similar to catching Pokémon.

]

[Miss Xia Tian, ​​could you give us a spoiler?]

After seeing the comments, Xia Tian said helplessly, "Why would I spoil it for you? I haven't even played this game myself."

Zhou Tiankuo laughed: "Indeed, this game hasn't been tested by anyone else in the studio yet."

Wow, this sounds like a very mysterious game! I'm even more excited now!

[Holy crap, so that means the new game is also entirely handled by a big shot?]
