241: Who is the foil?

One question from the reporter put Peter in a dilemma.

If he said he had played it, then why would he criticize such an excellent game incessantly?

If he said he hadn't played it, what right did he have to criticize if he hadn't even played it?

Peter was very angry now, and the consequences would be severe!

"kitchen chaos is a game that defies common sense and ruins the mental health of teenagers and children; I don't think it's a good game!" Peter argued unreasonably.

Even Peter himself felt that this lame excuse couldn't stand, but there was no way around it; he couldn't possibly admit that kitchen chaos was excellent, could he?

Wouldn't that be slapping himself in the face?

The reporter asked again, "But the audience here seems more interested in kitchen chaos, while very few players are playing winters sanctuary."

"What are your thoughts on this?"

Peter: "…"

What thoughts could I possibly have?

I wish I could take a knife and hack these people right now!

And you reporters, you took my money but didn't do your job for me, focusing all your attention on kitchen chaos!

Of course, these were all thoughts in his mind; he could only grit his teeth and say, "Our winters sanctuary has more depth."

"Things with depth often need the test of time to show their value."

The reporter smiled meaningfully and did not continue the interview.

After all, they had taken money, and such a public execution was a bit inhumane.

Seeing the reporter stop interviewing, Peter wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and just as he let out a sigh of relief, his expression changed drastically again.

Because many reporters were walking towards him.

Seeing this, Peter suddenly bent over and shouted, "Oh no, my stomach hurts so much!"

With that, Peter sprinted outside.

The reporters looked speechlessly at the restroom right next to them, then at Peter, who was fleeing out the door.

This new product launch event ended without a hitch because Peter had fallen into the restroom and never came out.

The next day, major gaming websites began promoting the game winters sanctuary.

winters sanctuary is a beautiful, high-quality, and large-capacity 3A game masterpiece.

Aside from the graphics, it was all about the graphics; the reporters' praise for winters sanctuary lacked originality.

Because most reporters hadn't really played winters sanctuary much, they weren't sure what was good about it.

They only knew the graphics were very good.

So they just praised that point, which was considered worthy of the money Peter had secretly given them.

After forcefully praising winters sanctuary, the reporters heaped praise on kitchen chaos.

A reporter from Southern New Times Game Society reported:

"kitchen chaos is a groundbreaking game; the moment I first saw it, I was deeply drawn to it."

"It made me recall the first time I met my wife; it was so heartwarming, so surprising."

"Every character in it left a very deep impression on me, and the level design made me admire the game's designers immensely."

"This is a work of joy, and even more, a work full of sincerity, so much so that when I returned home, I bought it immediately!"

"Oh, and I like the Fifth Child in it; I love absorbing and spitting water!"

A reporter from Northern Qingqing Game Society reported: "…"

A reporter from Lunbulie Game Society reported: "…"

A reporter from Donglai Times Game Society reported: "…"

Countless gaming websites were unreservedly praising kitchen chaos.

Of course, as a foil, for winters sanctuary, they adhered to the principle of doing business after receiving money.

They would still praise its decent graphics a few times.

However, the lone praise for its decent graphics made winters sanctuary a laughingstock among players.

Players' interest in winters sanctuary, conversely, grew lower and lower, while their interest in the newly released Chinese game kitchen chaos was strong.

Thus, on the distant other side of the ocean, kitchen chaos became popular.

And it became increasingly popular.

Qian Ziyong was completely unaware of this.

He hadn't even seen discussions about kitchen chaos in the domestic gaming news, and immediately felt very secure.

Seeing that kitchen chaos seemed to have failed miserably, Qian Ziyong would occasionally praise kitchen chaos in the game company group.

After all, Qian Ziyong had a conscience; he felt a bit bad about exploiting his employees so much.

That's why he would compensate by greatly praising kitchen chaos, even telling employees to quickly develop trouble in the kitchen 2, as he couldn't wait to see the new game!

Qian Ziyong's praise greatly boosted the employees' work enthusiasm.

Furthermore, trouble in the kitchen 2 was just an upgrade of kitchen chaos, which was much easier than starting from scratch.

trouble in the kitchen 2 was under intense development and would soon meet players.

…

On the other side, Liu Gaoda drove his eight-hundred-dollar five-seater car, rattling and shaking, to the office.

He had been truly exhausted during this period.

Opening over a thousand Milk Tea Shops in one go, he had been working non-stop, so tired that he had lost more than ten pounds.

Now, the streets and alleys of Shen City were already filled with their Mi Bing Milk Tea, finally completing part of the task in stages.

He could finally return to his warm office and play games properly.

He hadn't played games for many days, and he estimated Han Xin's skills might have gotten rusty.

Oh, and their Feihuang game company seemed to have released a new game several days ago; he hadn't played it yet!

Liu Gaoda parked his car and went straight to the 16th floor without returning to his own office.

The 16th floor was the game company's rest and entertainment area.

As an old employee of Feihuang and the CEO of the new Milk Tea Shop, although he was not an employee of the game company, resting and entertaining here was still no problem.

However, because there was no restroom, every time he wanted to use the restroom, he had to run back to the 15th floor.

Arriving at the game area, Liu Gaoda turned on the computer and picked up the controller.

Just then, Zhao Caiyi, the general manager of the game company, walked over to him, carrying a tray of drinks and many snacks.

"General Manager Zhao!" Liu Gaoda greeted Zhao Caiyi.

Don't let Zhao Caiyi's youth fool you; he was the overall person in charge of the game company.

That was equivalent to his position as CEO of the Milk Tea Shop.

"General Manager Liu!" Zhao Caiyi was no longer as shy as before; he walked over with a smile and said, "Fruit juice, soda, iced black tea, which one do you want to drink?"

Liu Gaoda said, "Just Happy Fat Water!"

"It's really too embarrassing to trouble you to get me water!"

Zhao Caiyi shook his head, "This is my duty; there's nothing to be embarrassed about!"

"You play well, and when you're done eating and drinking, just call me, and I'll get you more!"

"?" Liu Gaoda was full of confusion.

Duty?

Wasn't Zhao Caiyi the general manager of the game company?

The game company seemed to only have him as a high-level executive.

How did serving tea and pouring water become the general manager's duty?

And looking at Zhao Caiyi's skilled manner, he was even more like a waiter than a waiter!
