Chapter 69 RNM, Refund!
Zhao Yucheng's self-proclaimed elite talent is a civilized person, so naturally he would not tear Hu Rong apart.
However, he has already drawn a big cross to Hu Rong in his heart. After this matter is over, he will be the first person to be kicked out of the company.
Compared with Hu Rong, Zhang Heying, the head of the public relations department, has become more delicate and pleasing to the eye.
With a dark face, Zhao Yucheng sent Hu Rong to organize the manpower, get the DLC production team up and running as soon as possible, and then submit a reliable proposal and release timeline to him before tomorrow.
Then someone called Zhang Heying. Regarding the postponement of the release, we must discuss it with the person in charge of the PR department. Should we make it public? When will it be made public? What is the impact after it is made public?
He needs professional advice for reference.
Zhang Heying in the office was in a good mood.
Yes, although the state of the company is not very good, many people are working overtime to catch up with the progress, which is very hard.
But for him, the threat of being blamed has gone away, and Hu Rong caused big trouble over there, attracting all the firepower of the boss.
Here, Zhang Heying leads the public relations department to guide public opinion, properly handle the public relations crisis, and alleviate the plummeting word-of-mouth and refund tide of "Raging Flames 3" among the player community.
After advancing and retreating, he found that he had turned the corner, and the crisis of being blamed was over like this? !
Without saying a word, he deleted the job-seeking software, and blocked the headhunter's circle of friends by the way.
Whoever wants to, life is impermanent.
He had just been happy for a few days, but yesterday he was surprised to hear that a full third of the Lie Yan project team had resigned, and almost all core members had resigned!
He couldn't be more clear about what this meant. As for Hu Rong turning the tide, quickly picking up the burden, and leading everyone to move forward?
A fool would be so naive to believe in that bastard Hu Rong!
He felt uneasy all day today, and now he received a notification from the boss's assistant. While getting up to see the boss, he lamented in his heart: "I have experienced an ominous premonition."
When he arrived at the office, facing the boss's question, he thought about it for a while, and explained to Zhao Yucheng one by one the possible impact of various responses.
In fact, he can answer these questions without thinking. After all, he has been thinking about these questions since he heard yesterday that the core of Lie Yan production team had resigned collectively, and today he has been thinking about it for a whole day.
The appearance of thinking is purely to look more cautious.
In fact, many conclusions do not require more investigation, and one can think of it just by intuition: the announcement of the postponement is a matter of time, and it is impossible not to announce this matter.
The problem is that the sooner it is announced, the greater the impact on the sales of "Raging Flames 3", but the later it is announced, the worse the impact on NetDragon's brand image and player reputation will be.
"So in your opinion, is this a question of sales or word of mouth?" Zhao Yucheng asked.
"If there is no external interference, it will be like this."
"What external interference?" Zhao Yucheng was puzzled for a moment, but immediately realized, "You mean those employees who left?"
"Yes, I have already inquired about it today, and no one has left to work in Feihu and Deserted Island. There are too many small studios in the Jade Bird Alliance, so I can't be sure, but I have also asked about a certain scale, and no one has gone." When Zhang Heying found an opportunity, of course he tried his best to show off his ability.
"So what do you mean?" Zhao Yucheng had a bad idea in his mind.
"Yunmeng." Zhang Heying said affirmatively, "Their collective resignation was not a coincidence, most likely it was the team leaders who Qin Songyun contacted actively, and after these team leaders were persuaded, they persuaded the team members in private. They left together in the end. It is very feasible, they will go to Yunmeng, and they may have gone to Yunmeng to report today!"
"Do you think they might take the initiative to break the news?"
"Thinking about it in another way, I don't think Lin You will miss the opportunity to attack NetDragon."
These words made Zhao Yucheng frowned, but he had nothing to say.
Because he also felt that it was impossible for Lin You to let go of this opportunity.
"So what's your opinion?"
"Rather than being exposed by others, it is better for us to announce it ourselves. At least we can avoid being tempted by others, saying that we deliberately concealed it and cheated players of their money. If that is the case, sales and reputation will be damaged at the same time, and all face will be lost. "
When it was time to make a decision, Zhang Heying was still very decisive.
"Then—" Zhao Yucheng also made a difficult decision, "Let's announce the postponement as soon as possible!"
Zhang Heying got up and left the boss's office, thinking about what wording should be used for the next statement, and at the same time thinking, maybe he should download the job hunting software again?
Only one day later, NetDragon's official Lingxi account issued another statement.
"Dear players:
With great regret, we would like to convey a bad news to everyone: due to the change of production team members, the release of the first large-scale DLC of "Blaze 3" has been confirmed to be postponed.
We assure every player that we will invest all our manpower and material resources, and do everything possible to push forward the development progress of the "Blame 3" DLC, but the delay is inevitable.
We are very sorry for this.
Along with the development of the game industry, NetDragon has tried its best to provide players with many excellent games and good memories.
Now NetDragon is facing a difficult challenge, we ask for the understanding of all players, and hope to tide over the difficulties together with the players.
Yours sincerely
NetDragon Game Technology Co., Ltd.
When the players saw this statement, they even wondered what day it is today. This is not April 1st!
Soon, the anger of the players was ignited again.
"Yesterday you said that the free DLC will be released in 2 months, and you told me to postpone it after less than 24 hours?! Is it my fault or your fault?!"
"Postponed? Why the postponing? When is the postponing? Is there no clear explanation?!"
"Is this the credibility and thick skin of leading companies?! I learned it! Admiration!"
"I think you guys didn't have DLC in your plan at all! Yesterday, I just saw that the sales volume was affected, so I made up an excuse temporarily, in order to survive the time when the game was just released, so that I can spend a lot of money, right? Why are you in such a hurry now? Making a statement? Is it because I found out that I can’t hide it and I’m going to be exposed, so I can only jump out and pretend to be stupid, right?”
"Damn it! I just amlied my friend to buy "Blaze 3" yesterday, because you said that the free DLC will be released in two months, and now you say it will be postponed. Do you fucking think it's fun to play with me?! "
"NetDragon: All eyes are on me, I will show you a unique skill - I am a fool!"
Thousands of words from netizens merged into one sentence——
"RNM, refund your money!"
