Starting with Genshin Impact, the whole world is going crazy for it.

Originally, many people supported Tiankuo Studio because of the news.

The reputation of the Starlight Contest has also been severely damaged.

Zhou Tiankuo originally thought they wouldn't treat him well.

Not to mention, Xia Tian was also recruited by him to work in his studio as an operations manager.

Xia Tian's original role at Xingguang was almost that of a junior assistant who held multiple positions.

If I leave now, the work over there will probably fall into complete chaos.

"No matter what, they have no obligation to write for me so well, so why is it like this now?"

Zhou Tiankuo was completely baffled.

He opened other web pages to search.

The new game from Tiankuo Studio has received rave reviews online.

The headlines of various news reports are also quite amusing.

Some are quite standard.

Tiankuo Studio continues its glorious legacy!

"King of PC Games! Tiankuo Studio!"

Tiankuo Studio releases PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds game, sparking a frenzy among players.

There are some other interesting ones as well.

Why is this studio so amazing?

In-depth look at the secrets behind Tiankuo Studio's game development.

"Every game this studio releases becomes a hit, it's like a ghost!"

Of course, there's also the studio that Zhou Tiankuo knows very well, the one he always tries to interview but can never get a chance to.

After reading these headlines, Zhou Tiankuo thought for a moment.

I searched for negative reviews again.

He was surprised to find that no players had raised any questions about PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds since its release.

"How could that be? It's impossible to please everyone. There will always be some people who dislike my game and might even make some negative comments."

Zhou Tiankuo murmured.

Zhou Tiankuo had never seen such a large-scale, one-sided situation before.

Just like rating a game, even the best game will only get most positive reviews, but there will always be one or two negative reviews.

Currently, most people's dissatisfaction with this game boils down to one thing.

"I'm too bad at the game to win, so I don't find it fun..."

Zhou Tiankuo: ?

Is he crazy, or is the world crazy?

"How can you not find fault with a game? Even the Starlight Contest is like that..."

Zhou Tiankuo continued scrolling down, still confused, and finally found an official announcement.

It's the same official association that had the system submit evidence of plagiarism and other crimes last time!

The official association's Weibo account, which is rarely updated, surprisingly posted a screenshot of Tiankuo Studio's new game.

"This studio is performing well and has great potential."

Just a short sentence.

The comments section was also closed.

It received over a million likes!

It has been forwarded hundreds of thousands of times.

Am I seeing things? The official announcement is out?

[It seems pretty normal... The official stance is that they want to make good games, and they certainly support excellent original independent studios like Tiankuo Studio.]

Wow, this is amazing! They've already gained official recognition in just a few months...

[I wanted to tag some studios here; they were even criticized by the official account last time!]

Some comments defended Tiankuo Studio, while others subtly criticized Tencent and other major companies.

It's more of a surprise to see the official appearance.

Zhou Tiankuo suddenly realized.

No wonder he saw so many people speaking up for him, and there were almost no negative reviews.

So it's the official statement!

However, this also shows him that the world really values ​​games.

There are also dedicated official game associations that collect evidence of plagiarism and other issues, and they even post updates specifically to highlight the outstanding performance of Tiankuo Studio.

Looking at the players' reposts and likes, it's clear that they have great trust and respect for the official game association.

Zhou Tiankuo laughed: "Not bad... With the official stamp, it will be much easier for me to fight against those big companies."

Take another look at those news headlines.

Zhou Tiankuo opened his private messages.

Sure enough, the game research studio sent him several private messages inviting him to join.

I was quite nervous when I posted it for the first time.

"We wonder if the big shot has the time, amidst his busy schedule, to grant us an interview..."

Zhou Tiankuo remembered seeing the message, but at that time he hadn't decided to show his face, so he didn't reply.

In the following instances, it turned into a style of "Please, boss, look at me! I'm going to die if you don't look at me!"

Even though Zhou Tiankuo didn't reply, they persisted in extending invitations.

There was a pause in the middle.

Zhou Tiankuo carefully recalled the timeline and realized that it should be the time when he accepted the Starlight Interview and appeared on the show with Xia Tian.

"So you've been angry lately?"

Zhou Tiankuo smiled.

He opened a can of soda and continued looking at the invitation.

I finally discovered that the latest post was published that morning.

Zhou Tiankuo immediately replied, "Okay, you guys set a time, I'll check my work schedule."

Actually, his time is quite flexible.

This reply is just an attempt to show that she's managing a studio and is very busy!

The other party clearly didn't expect Zhou Tiankuo to agree, and replied: "Okay, no problem, boss, let's meet again next time."

Two seconds passed.

"What? Boss, you say it's okay?"

The other party clearly did not expect this outcome, but they could not back down.

"I'm so sorry, sir, I thought you were rejecting us. I'll arrange a time right away!"

Zhou Tiankuo: LOL.

"There's no need to be so nervous. I'm just an ordinary person. It's very easy for me to do an interview. You can even send me the questions in advance so I can take a look."

He replied to the past.

The other party, however, stated that their interviews were quite spontaneous and that they did not prepare scripts or questions in advance.

However, they will ask some questions related to game studios. They'll also discuss Zhou Tiankuo's views on the overall game market.

In short, I hope everyone has a pleasant chat.

Zhou Tiankuo finally finalized the time with the other party.

The next morning at 10 a.m., we chose to conduct an interview via live video link.

After closing his Weibo account, Zhou Tiankuo sent the message to Xia Tian.

I'm doing an interview tomorrow morning; please make a note of that.

Xia Tian quickly replied: 【Okay.】

This reply left Zhou Tiankuo feeling uneasy. He explained, "I don't see you as a secretary or anything like that. I just thought it was part of the studio's schedule, so I was just letting you know."

Boss, you've misunderstood. I didn't mean anything by it; I just instinctively replied "okay" when I received a work assignment...

Xia Tian was also very nervous.

Upon seeing this reply, Zhou Tiankuo scratched the back of his head.

Ok!

It seems he still doesn't know how to get along with an employee like this.

Chapter 97: Another Interview, Everyone Shocked

The next day, around nine o'clock, Zhou Tiankuo turned on his computer.

"I feel so weak all over."

Zhou Tiankuo shook his head.

Suddenly I realized that I haven't bought any stamina-boosting items from the system shop recently.

No wonder staying up late makes me feel so tired.

Upon opening the online store, Zhou Tiankuo discovered that many new items had been added to the store.
