188: The revenue of the game "Sheep" soared, and Liu Jingming, who was disloyal, was solved

At this moment, a plan targeting Zhou Xianlong formed in Gao Ze's mind.

Although he hadn't fully thought it through, he already had a direction.

No matter how strong a fortress, it cannot withstand internal cracks, and an enemy's enemy is a friend.

Just like Liu Junpeng.

After shorting Feima Group, he was beaten by Zhou Xianlong and harbored a grudge against him, making him completely exploitable.

There was also Qin Deqiang, a billionaire tycoon; among so many Su City tycoons, only he dared to short Feima Group, knowing that Zhou Xianlong was Feima Group's largest controlling shareholder, which showed he was a hidden enemy of Zhou Xianlong and could also be utilized.

After heading to Su City tomorrow, Gao Ze would meet Zhou Xianlong and his enemies.

He looked forward to going to Su City and telling Zhou Xianlong that he had orchestrated the Feima Group short-selling incident, curious to see what expression would appear on his face.

“Three bodies forming an angel shape appeared in an abandoned factory in Huangpu District. It seems I don't have time to stay and solve this case.”

The Municipal Bureau would appoint him tomorrow to investigate Shen Gang's sacrifice in Su City, which indicated the urgency of the situation there.

If he returned from Su City and the Huangpu District police had not yet solved this case in Huangpu District, he would take action.

........

..........

The next morning, Gao Ze woke up very early.

However, he didn't go to the Huangpu District Criminal Investigation Brigade immediately but instead called Li Qingshu, arranging to meet her at the Gubei No. 1 residential complex clubhouse.

“Mr. Gao, what can I do for you?”

“These are buns my mom made, Mr. Gao, please try them, they’re delicious.”

Li Qingshu held a food container, placed it in front of Gao Ze, revealing a beautiful and charming smile.

Her ponytail was tied up and fell behind her shoulders, and she wore a simple white dress, looking as pure as a girl from a campus manga.

“Thank you, I called you because there’s something I want to ask.”

Gao Ze took the food container and said, “Didn't I tell you yesterday that I thought Liu Jingming might have ulterior motives after the Sheep A Sheep game became a hit? I asked you to prepare for crisis prevention in advance. Have you done it?”

“Already working on it!”

Li Qingshu nodded and said, “I took your advice, Mr. Gao, and am expanding the game development personnel and operations team, but it still needs some time.

Currently, only two or three game programmers have been recruited.”

Two or three game programmers were definitely not enough.

Gao Ze shook his head, understanding that he couldn't entirely blame Li Qingshu.

Liu Jingming’s rebellious intentions were orchestrated by Zhou Xianlong behind the scenes, and Liu Jingming’s sudden attack today was meant to catch them off guard, not giving Li Qingshu time to react.

If Li Qingshu didn't have his help and lacked experience, she would indeed suffer a huge loss and have to compromise with Liu Jingming.

But he already knew Liu Jingming’s plan in advance, so such a situation would not occur.

Solving the seemingly tricky problem of Liu Jingming was also very simple: just have Jiang Qianyu contact her social circle and have Shengyou Company dispatch game operations and programming personnel.

The last time Liu Jingming accepted Li Qingshu's investment, it was Gao Ze who had the well-known Donghai City Shengyou Company reject Liu Jingming's game project investment.

This time, asking Jiang Qianyu to contact Shengyou Company would be even simpler.

Because Jiang Qianyu and Jiahua Group were already under his control.

“Mr. Gao, what’s wrong? Is something happening?”

Li Qingshu looked at Gao Ze uneasily, faintly sensing that something beyond her expectations might occur.

She hadn't forgotten that Gao Ze was the Vice President of the Holy Light Society, possessing crucial investment intelligence that she and countless others couldn't access.

“Liu Jingming will make trouble for you!”

Gao Ze did not hide it, saying, “When the daily revenue of the Sheep A Sheep game exceeds ten million, then tens of millions, he won't be able to sit still in the face of such enormous profits.

Especially since this game was initially spearheaded by him, so today he will unite with several core game developers from the game studio to coerce you into demanding shares and increased profits.”

Li Qingshu sent him daily reports on the Sheep A Sheep game's revenue via WeChat.

Gao Ze knew that the game's top-up revenue had grown from two to three hundred thousand on the first day to several millions, then breaking through ten million, and yesterday it had already surpassed the twenty million mark, which also included his earnings.

“The Sheep A Sheep game was developed under his leadership, but I put no less effort into it than him.”

With a shimmering mist gathering in her eyes, Li Qingshu’s nose trembled as she gritted her teeth and said:

“Ever since the studio's shares were acquired and controlled by me, Liu Jingming's work attitude has been extremely perfunctory; I've been responsible for all the game promotion and operation work.

Moreover, I believe I've treated him well; even after he stopped working, I still retained his shares and gave him game dividends.”

“I know all your efforts.”

Gao Ze gently patted Li Qingshu's shoulder, knowing that every word the girl said was true.

He had also seen Li Qingshu working late into the night to negotiate cooperation with the female manager of the WeChat Public Relations Department to promote the game.

If it weren't for Li Qingshu's hard work and dedication in promoting the Sheep A Sheep game, it would never have achieved its current soaring revenue.

“Mr. Gao, what should we do now?”

Her sadness was fleeting; Li Qingshu was far more resolute than Gao Ze had imagined, and she composed herself, asking:

“I haven't recruited enough game programmers yet.

If Liu Jingming unites with the core game developers to challenge me, I'm afraid I'll find it very difficult to cope.”

“Don't worry, I'm here!”

Gao Ze had given Liu Jingming a chance yesterday; as long as Liu Jingming chose not to conflict with Li Qingshu, Gao Ze would allow him, as the game developer, to continue holding shares and remain in the game studio.

However, Liu Jingming had already made his choice.

Gao Ze would not let him stay any longer.

“You go to the game studio; if Liu Jingming makes trouble for you, you arrange for him to meet me at the Jinghai District bar.

I want to see him in person.”

Gao Ze sent Jiang Qianyu the bar's location.

“Okay!”

Looking at the bar with the strange English name, Jiang Qianyu was slightly surprised.

She had heard of this bar's reputation; according to friends in her circle, it was an extremely high-end, membership-only bar in Donghai City, where most of the patrons were elites from various industries, or wealthy businessmen and tycoons.

They weren't drinking alcohol; they were drinking their social status.

“Mr. Gao, how will you deal with Liu Jingming?”

“Liu Jingming was the original owner of the studio and has deep connections with many core game developers; he's not easy to handle!”

“Are their connections as strong as profit sharing?”

Gao Ze smiled and said, “I won't let Liu Jingming stay in the studio and affect you; he must be kicked out.

As for the specific method, you'll see when you go to the bar.”

After speaking, he returned the empty food container to Li Qingshu, left the Gubei No. 1 leisure clubhouse, and headed to the Huangpu District Criminal Investigation Brigade.

Midway, Gao Ze called Jiang Qianyu, informed her of the problem, and told her to contact the Chairman of Feima Group to dispatch game development and operations personnel, and also to invite the Feima Group Chairman to meet at the bar at noon.

Jiang Qianyu had already gained control of Jiahua Group's shares, and her position was stable; her influence not only returned to its original level but also greatly increased, enough to extend to Feima Group.

And this was also Gao Ze's current influence.

Solving matters concerning a multi-million dollar game studio like Liu Jingming's no longer required his personal handling.

During the call, Jiang Qianyu mentioned the opening of the Hong Kong stock market, and Gao Ze told her to proceed with the original short-selling plan, which also did not require his handling.

“.......”

Huangpu District Criminal Investigation Brigade.

Upon arriving, Gao Ze went straight to the Criminal Police Center to find Captain Liu Wenzhong.

“Brother Gao, you're finally here.”

“You said there would be a result for the culprit in today’s case; is that true?”

Liu Wenzhong, with dark circles under his eyes, excitedly came out of his office after learning of Gao Ze's arrival from his subordinates, saying:

“Who exactly is the culprit in the Spring and Scenery Bar case?”
