Chapter 485 Inner Ghost? Allies!
On the Vortex game forum, a post suddenly became popular.
And it was very popular: in just 20 minutes, there were an astonishing more than 3,000 replies.
The title of this post is very simple - [If you are accidentally stranded on a deserted island, how should you survive? ]
Don't be surprised, [Vortex Game Forum], although the name is a game forum, and the main board inside is also a game, it doesn't mean that all posts are related to games.
Players often come here to discuss all kinds of weird things.
From social news to neighborhood gossip, to wild fishing spots, outdoor survival, and even husband and wife issues, issues between men and women...it covers everything.
It's just that this post was posted on the [New Tour Prospect] section.
It was originally just one of the posts that were sent out in large numbers on the whirlpool forum every day, and quickly sank to the bottom and disappeared.
It suddenly became popular today because of the reply to this post.
Below the original poster's question, the first post immediately followed was a trumpet account without any information or posting records, and the post read——
"First fell the tree, then build a house, then build a workbench..."
The reply time is November 15, which is last Friday.
At that time, Yunmeng's trailer hadn't been released yet, and all information about "Minecraft" was kept confidential.
So strictly speaking, this reply is actually a ghost post.
The person who replied was obviously a player who was invited to the internal test last Monday and entered "Minecraft" in advance, and it is obvious——
He violated Yunmeng's game confidentiality agreement.
There is no accidental leak, otherwise I would not have deliberately used the blank trumpet I just registered to answer, and this post would not have been posted in the [New Tour Prospect] section—how could such a coincidence happen!
This is the first time that Yunmeng's game has been leaked by the "inner ghost" in a true sense, and it is also the first time that Yunmeng's game confidentiality agreement has been blatantly breached.
Although this post was not noticed at the time, most people did not click into this post at all, and a few netizens who clicked in did not understand the meaning of this reply at all.
In the end, this post quickly sank to the bottom and disappeared from everyone's sight.
Until today, Yunmeng officially released the "Minecraft" trailer. At the end of the trailer, after seeing the scene of the player picking up a tree and building a house, it took another two hours before this post was dug up.
And then it's big red big purple!
Players are frantically touting under the post:
"Brother is awesome!"
"Why didn't you say it sooner! Reply a few more posts and stand up earlier!"
"More, more, more! More exciting news!"
"That's right, what about the game mechanism? What about the core gameplay? Anything is fine, talk more!"
"My brother is a bit fierce, a role model for my generation!"
...
On the other side, these same people, while bragging about the ghost brother, ran to Yunmeng and Lin You's Lingxi accounts, blazing wildly, saying that the ghost broke the contract, so hurry up and punish him.
Show the true colors of fun people.
Xiaomeng, who was always paying attention to Lin You's comment area, noticed this matter at the first time, and immediately showed it to Lin You.
"Xiaomeng is amazing!" Lin You glanced at the post, praised Xiaomeng again, turned around and went back to work, completely ignoring it.
Lin You didn't care, so of course Xiao Meng didn't care either.
Apart from these two big-hearted ones, Yunmeng was the first to notice this matter was a female employee of the "Minecraft" development team: Gong Shi.
This is actually a senior employee of Yunmeng. He left NetDragon with Fan Rui and joined Yunmeng.
But this girl is not self-motivated, and she is not interested in being promoted to be the team leader at all. As soon as Xiaochun mentioned it, she refused, and she has been at ease as a salted fish who goes to and from get off work on time.
——The group of people back then, all used the rewards from "League of Assassins" to earn money that would normally take decades to earn, and even now, they still receive a large amount of dividends every month.
This leads to employees who have no ambitions, and they all live a little bit as they please.
Naturally, the quality and quantity of work is still guaranteed, and they have never stopped the pace of self-improvement. This is the quality they think they must possess to stay in Yunmeng-after all, they are surrounded by awesome people, and no one wants to be left behind.
But apart from these, just come as comfortable as you can.
No one is worried about being put on small shoes by the boss.
Lin You's game release plan was postponed, and he started to go to and from get off work on time every day, and there was no one who asked the development team to work overtime.
——For Yunmeng’s employees, the boss Lin You came to and from work on time every day, and worked hard all day without fishing. .
This did not make everyone work overtime, which is enough to show the true nature of the boss-of course, the boss himself did not work overtime.
Therefore, Gong Shi felt at ease in front of her own small staff—the kind with top salaries and multiple dividends.
Recently, I am still on my way to study, and I have made a few good friends. Life should not be too happy.
Today, because of the release of the "Minecraft" trailer, Xiaochun gave everyone a half-day vacation according to Yunmeng's long-standing habit. The reason is: to pay attention to player feedback.
But in fact it is fishing time.
Gong Shi once again declined Xiaochun's promotion proposal—and was preparing to completely take over the promotion at the long-term operation level of "Minecraft" in the future, and then began to fish happily and chat with new friends.
Just mentioned the game project she developed in Yunmeng, which is "My World".
Before today, her friends only knew that she was developing games in Yunmeng, but not what specific project she was developing.
I remember a friend suddenly bluffed and said: "Many people on the Internet said that some players violated the confidentiality agreement of the game you developed, should it matter?"
Gong Shi took a look and felt that it was not a big deal, but out of professionalism, she ran to tell Xiao Chun.
"What's wrong? Have you changed your mind?" Xiaochun was very happy.
"Give up." Gong Shi once again refused, "I must go to Chang'an."
"Stop talking about that, just look at this first."
She pulled the post information from the panel and showed it to Xiao Chun.
Xiaochun looked at it, didn't care too much, and directly forwarded it to Shen Ping and Luo Hengye.
In the end, Shen Ping didn't take it seriously, and replied "Got it, thank you", and then discussed with the new operation team the follow-up update plan of "Hunter: Call of the Wild".
Only Luo Hengye, although he didn't think it was a big deal in his heart, was still within the scope of his duties and couldn't be ignored, so he got up to find Lin You.
Anyway, this is the first time it has appeared, and it is considered the first case, so I still have to ask the boss what he thinks.
The result was not what he expected.
He found Lin You, and as soon as he mentioned "the player violated the confidentiality agreement", Lin You interrupted directly: "It's hard work, but this time I won't be able to go to the court. I will deal with it in detail."
Luo Hengye then left with peace of mind, and continued to fish.
Since he established the legal department, he has been quite free.
Since then, Yunmeng has never encountered any lawsuits, and his employees are more than capable of dealing with business cooperation issues. He will only participate in large transnational cooperation.
It's just... quite free.
Luo Hengye went fishing, and Lin You continued to work on the production of the secondary artificial intelligence core.
Shen Ping and Xiao Chun didn't take it seriously either.
The person who troubled Yunmeng the most was actually Gong Shi—his new friend had been curiously asking how Yunmeng would deal with this matter.
She said she didn't know.
The new friend said: "Oh, I understand, I understand, the rules of big companies, right? Before the final decision is made, you can't just say it to the outside world. I understand, I understand."
"You know what a fart!" Gong Shi muttered in a low voice.
Of course, she wouldn't say that in the chat software.
It's only been a few days since I made friends, so be reserved and don't swear...
It's no wonder these friends were curious, during the time Yunmeng was silent, this matter had become more and more noisy.
The players probably watched the trailer, were overly excited, and had nowhere to express themselves, so they all grabbed a melon and ate it hard, even pulling out the melon seedlings.
Even soon, a bunch of game media also kept up with the heat and began to join in the fun, scrambling to send news reports:
"Mysterious inner ghost, breach of contract Yunmeng!"
"The first case of virtual reality game breach of contract!"
"A post worth millions!"
"The next ghost, or Yunmeng's punishment, which one will come first?"
...
There was an uproar on the Internet, but Yunmeng remained silent.
Players and the media were baffled.
However, in the office of the Lingxi operation and maintenance team, the team leader has issued orders in advance: "Be mentally prepared in advance. Additional expansion may be used at 4:30, or it may be 4:50."
The group members understood.
...
...
At 4:50 p.m., there are still 10 minutes left before Yunmeng gets off work.
Yunmeng's employees are basically finishing their work and preparing to leave work.
Lin You also put down the development work and turned to deal with this trivial matter.
So players, media, and Lingxi operation and maintenance personnel waited for a response all afternoon, and finally came——
"Thank you for your concern, but don't @me, I see.
This matter does violate the game's non-disclosure agreement, but I don't intend to pursue it-because I feel that this matter is quite interesting.
Of course, in order to prevent messy leaks in the future, I would like to explain my attitude in advance:
If it is a post like this that can completely leak the secret without being discovered, and it is not discovered until after we publish it, then OK, you have the ability, Yunmeng will not pursue it.
But if you are found out, then sorry, liquidated damages start at 500,000.
The game that was leaked by you will also close the door to you forever.
How about it? Isn't it interesting?
Do you want to challenge? "
Why is Lin You so tolerant?
The reason is simple - he thinks it's fun.
Compared to coldly suing and losing money, isn't it more fun to play a "real game" with players like this?
Anyway, it's not just once or twice that Lin You acts willfully and recklessly. As long as the risk is controllable and the price is acceptable, then it's fun to spend money on.
Besides, looking at this matter alone, no matter what the insider thought, objectively, he really helped Yunmeng create popularity and further promoted the new game.
From Lin You's point of view, this is completely a friendly army!
