Chapter 392 If you don’t enter the tiger’s den, how can you catch the tiger’s cubs?

 The next morning, in the editorial department of Shaowan Game Network.

Not long after Zhang Qifeng arrived and sat down in the office, the office door was pushed open with a bang.

"Zhang Qifeng! Look at the good things you have done!"

Zhang Qifeng was startled. He quickly looked up and saw that the person coming was Liu Dong, the director of Shaowan Game Network.

He is also considered his immediate boss.

Zhang Qifeng was confused because he had rarely seen Liu Dong get so angry. The last time he saw him, it seemed that one of his editors made a stupid mistake when interviewing a very important foreign manufacturer, which caused many Players have the misunderstanding that this game does not pay attention to domestic players.

That time at Shaowan Game Network, Liu Dong was so angry that he cursed Zhang Qifeng and his editor. It was a dark history that Zhang Qifeng was reluctant to look back on.

Unexpectedly, after many years, he saw Mr. Liu's furious expression again.

"Mr. Liu, what's wrong? What happened?"

While Zhang Qifeng stood up and tried to calm down Liu Dong's anger as much as possible, his brain was running at the speed of light, trying to recall when he stabbed Lei.

Shaowan Game Network is currently a relatively popular game media. Basically, various game information and briefings are released every day. In the past few days, there have been at least ten or twenty manuscripts reviewed by Zhang Qifeng. In a hurry, I can't think of a specific problem.

What's more, Zhang Qifeng is also puzzled. He has carefully reviewed these manuscripts, so what's the big problem?

Liu Dong's anger was obviously justified: "Have you played "Heartbeat Dreamland" yet?"

Zhang Qifeng was stunned for a moment: "No, no. Isn't that a new game from Nitiantian? Has it been released?"

Liu Dong pointed at him with a bit of hatred: "You, you, go and see for yourself what the current public opinion about this game is on the Internet!"

This makes Zhang Qifeng even more confused, right? What does the game Against Heaven have to do with us?

Although they are editors of game media, they cannot play all games. After all, the usual work itself is very busy, with manuscripts to be written, and there may be as many as a dozen games involved at the same time, so it is impossible to play them all.

At most, a few colleagues can divide it up and play one game each. Only some top-level games that are extremely popular and attract much attention can be played by multiple editors together.

This is also the reason why many game media are prone to overturning. It is true that there are not enough manpower to play, and it is easy to have problems with the manuscripts written.

But Zhang Qifeng is an experienced editor after all. He is very careful in this regard and all manuscripts are carefully verified.

So far, the intersection between Shaowan Games and "Heartbeat Dreamland" seems to be the only interview, right?

Although Shaowan Game Network does have internal plans to publish a game review and trial guide for "Heartbeat Dreamland", and the task of writing the article has been assigned, the submission date is still early!

Are you saying there was something wrong with that interview?

That makes even more sense, because Zhang Qifeng only truthfully recorded the words of Zhou Yang, the producer of "Heartbeat Dreamland", so this thing can also overturn? ,

Unless he's tricking me!

Thinking of this, Zhang Qifeng quickly explained: "Mr. Liu, I definitely wrote that interview according to what the producer of "Heartbeat Dreamland" said. There was no free play at all. I swear! If you don't believe it, you can check the recording."

At this time, Zhang Qifeng was extremely grateful that he had the habit of archiving all the recording files in the voice recorder. If he had deleted them, he would have jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't clean them up.

Liu Dong obviously didn't particularly believe what Zhang Qifeng said.

After all, they are all working in the media. How could he not know the virtues of the editors under him?

Who doesn’t understand the fascinating moment of journalism?

Of course, Shaowan Game.com still has a little bit of a bottom line here. It will slightly embellish the content of the interviewees, and it may sometimes be a little condescending, but in general, it will not deviate too much from the facts.

But looking at Zhang Qifeng’s determined attitude, maybe this interview really was true to his word?

This is indeed very possible, because at the time of the interview, the game "Heartbeat Dreamland" had not yet been released. Even if Zhang Qifeng wanted to play freely, he had no material or reason at all.

Thinking of this, Liu Dong frowned: "Then you mean that we are being used?

"Is it the producer from Nitiantian who deliberately used our interview to convey wrong information to the players, thereby misleading them?

"That's a bit too ungrateful!"

The more Liu Dong thought about it, the more he felt it was very possible.

Because "Heartbeat Dreamland" has been regarded as a scam by players at this time, Nitiantian officials are basically deliberately misleading players whether they are releasing demos, promoting it, or selling figures.

Since these are all misleading, what's weird about misleading the media for exclusive interviews?

Zhang Qifeng was a little unsure: "This...Mr. Liu, it's hard to say. I think the producer of "Heartbeat Dreamland" is quite honest and doesn't talk much. He shouldn't deliberately lie to me."

Liu Dong was a little angry: "As an old man, you don't tell the truth much, right? You know people, faces but not hearts. You should have a longer memory!"

Zhang Qifeng didn't know what to say. The facts were here, and it was difficult for him to argue.

I could only quickly browse the relevant information on the web page, and then compare it with the interview content at that time. Then, Zhang Qifeng said with a somewhat complicated mood: "Mr. Liu, don't tell me, what the producer told is the truth, but I didn't hear it at the time...

"You see, he told me not to assume the gameplay of this game. He also said that this game will bring players a dream version of the game experience, and players will experience the feeling of heartbeat and love across dimensions..."

Liu Dong was stunned. He thought about it carefully, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with these words!

Even a lot of the content here does imply that this game is extraordinary.

For example, playing this game requires players to have excellent psychological quality, good operating techniques, and good self-cultivation...

Do ordinary romance games need these? Obviously not needed.

But it was obvious that neither Zhang Qifeng, who was interviewing at the time, nor the players who saw the interview later, considered that aspect at all.

But do you want to say that Zhou Yang is a liar? No, it can only be said that there is a deviation in understanding.

Zhang Qifeng continued: "Mr. Liu, look, there is one last sentence. The producer also said that whether the surprise can be achieved depends on the person, but in general, it should be no problem to achieve half of it.

"At first I thought he meant to achieve half of the surprise, but now it seems that he meant to at least surprise the players..."

Liu Dong couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead: "I've been fooled!

"I didn't expect, I didn't expect that the geese hunting all year round would get a peck from the geese..."

As members of the media, they are the only ones who have always deceived their interviewees. How could they be deceived by their interviewees?

"Then, Mr. Liu, what should we do now..." Zhang Qifeng asked softly.

Liu Dong didn't know what to say.

Okay, now the truth is out, who has a problem? Everyone seems to be fine!

First of all, Zhang Qifeng must have no problem. He asked the questions seriously and wrote them truthfully according to the recording without any artistic processing.

There must be no problem with the website either.

Where is Zhou Yang?

First of all, what he said is indeed true, but everyone's understanding is wrong. Secondly, the decision to engage in fraud in this game should have been decided by the top management of Nitiantian. As a producer, it is certainly impossible for him to directly expose the game's background. He can only use this method to hint and send a distress signal to the outside world.

But the outside world may not be able to understand this distress signal!

In the final analysis, the boss who decided this matter within Nitian will still have to take the blame!

Mr. Li and Mr. Gu, well, Mr. Gu seemed kind and not aggressive, so it was clear who the culprit was.

Liu Dong's anger was almost gone, and he sat down on the chair next to him: "The most urgent task now is to think carefully about how to eliminate the negative impact!

"After all, angry players are now looking for outlets everywhere, and video complaints are no longer enough to satisfy them. Nitiantian has always liked to be a coward, leaving them nowhere to vent their anger, so they just vented it on us. .

"We have to find a way to distance ourselves! We can't let the players think that we are the accomplices of Ni Tiantian."

Zhang Qifeng was also a little bit noisy: "Well, Mr. Liu, please be patient and I will think of a solution."

The simplest way to deal with it was to simply issue a statement, saying that at that time Shaowan Game.com had not played the official version of the game, and the interview manuscript was written entirely based on the producer's answers.

In short, it is to clear up the relationship.

But doing so would be a bit too blunt, and it would easily lead to a stalemate in the relationship with Nitian.

If you encounter a little pressure from public opinion this time, you will quickly throw away the blame and cut off the relationship. Then next time you want to ask Ni Tiantian to arrange an exclusive interview, I'm afraid they will ignore you.

So it's best not to do this unless absolutely necessary.

But as for other ways to deal with it, Zhang Qifeng really couldn't think of it for a while.

Fortunately, this matter is not that urgent. It is not a particularly serious public relations crisis. He still has two or three days to think about it carefully.

Liu Dong nodded: "Okay, please put your other work aside and deal with this matter first! Anyway, there are no new masterpieces in the gaming industry recently, and the popularity is basically in "Heartbeat Dreamland" here.

"If there are any new discoveries by then, maybe we can publish a few other manuscripts."

After Liu Dong finished speaking, he turned and left.

Zhang Qifeng sighed silently and hurriedly downloaded "Heartbeat Dreamland" on his computer.

Looks like you have to do it yourself!

If you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you catch the tiger's cubs? You still have to try it out for yourself, and then see if there is any room for redemption in terms of the reputation of the game and this interview.
