Chen Ba’s expression was quite regretful when he spoke.

There are too many biases against him and Tianba Studio from the world! People always think he only produces game bugs and that Tianba Studio only cooks up crappy games.

Absolutely absurd!

Besides, just the Tianba Engine technology, how many domestic game companies can manage to create that?

With just the Tianba Engine, Tianba Studio is worthy of being called a high-tech enterprise.

Cold knowledge!

A certain research institution once specifically sent people to find Chen Ba, aiming for the "Super Realistic Physics Engine" in the game "Speeding Frenzy".

Not many people know about this, even within Tianba Studio, except for Dong and Huang Qing, not even Lu is aware of this.

It can’t be helped, after all, the other party is a research institution with a high level of confidentiality, researching something likely of great national importance, so it can’t be advertised widely, it must be kept low-key.

"Let’s apply for a few patents in the future! Otherwise, people keep saying our Tianba Studio lacks technical strength..."

Huang Qing helplessly said, "Whether it’s a game company or a technology enterprise, we should be high-profile when appropriate, we can’t let people keep underestimating us."

"That’s very reasonable!"

Chen Ba nodded.

The most awkward thing about Tianba Studio is that its games are very famous, a few of them could even be said to be known worldwide.

However...

As the developer of these games, Tianba Studio itself is still very, very low-key, far less known than competitors like Pig Factory and Mi Youhuo.

It’s simply too shameful.

Frankly, except for the giant Penguin Game, which Tianba Studio can look up to, none of the remaining domestic game companies is a match for Tianba.

This is also why in the past year, Chen Ba has frequently appeared in various mainstream media, attending various events large and small, to madly brush up his presence.

Being too low-key doesn’t work either, Tianba Community has reached tens of millions of active users, it’s imaginable how many fans there are.

Yet, despite so many fans, the official account of Tianba Studio only has a pathetic few hundred thousand followers, isn’t this the ultimate embarrassment?

"Alright, I’m off now."

Chen Ba waved his hand, signaling to everyone to continue with their work, and said he would deal with any issues when he returns after attending the summit.

"But..."

Lu wanted to mention something about "Mountain Village Memories", but Ba walked too fast, and soon he was already in the elevator.

"What’s up?"

Huang Qing asked curiously, "You can talk to me about anything, you don’t always have to go to Ba for solutions."

"You? You can’t solve this!"

"What are you saying? I’m the CEO, isn’t there anything I can’t solve, needing to involve the boss?"

"Well, alright then..."

Seeing Huang Qing insist on getting to the bottom of it, Lu reported, "The divination feature in ’Mountain Village Memories’ has gone viral, you know about it, right?"

"I know!"

"The problem lies there, because it went viral, all kinds of mystical figures are popping up..."

Thinking he couldn’t explain clearly enough, Lu took out his phone from his pocket, opened a certain short video app, and played a video for Huang Qing.

Huang Qing earnestly watched the phone.

Only to see on the screen, a stylishly dressed young man slowly walking towards a fortune teller under the bridge, who boldly claimed to "predict accurately."

"Folks, today I’m going to show you an impressive challenge! Technology VS mysticism, let’s see whether technology or mysticism is the superior!"

What on earth is Technology VS Mysticism?

Huang Qing watched, bewildered, not understanding the significance of the video Lu showed him.

"Keep watching, you’ll know soon enough!"

Lu wasn’t in a hurry, just dragged the progress bar, signaling to Huang Qing not to rush, the good show is yet to come!

The young man approached the master, who had an air of mysticism, pretending to be worshipful and asked, "Master, I’ve recently encountered some trouble, can you help me with a divination?"

Snap!

The master didn’t speak, just tapped gently with his right index finger on the payment QR code in front of his table.

The young man immediately understood and hurriedly scanned it and paid 200 yuan.

After hearing the "XXX received 200 yuan" voice prompt, the master softened his expression and asked, "What’s your surname? What trouble have you encountered?"

"Master, my surname is Wang!"

"It’s like this..."

Seeing the master willing to speak, the young man then expressed his troubles.

Apparently, he has fallen for a girl and wants to pursue her. This girl likes playing with her phone, is a computer genius, and has a very cold personality, barely talks to anyone...

The young man gave a "precise" description, then said with a troubled expression, "I’ve spent 648 yuan to pursue her, but she still hasn’t spoken a word to me."

"Master, do you think if I continue to spend 648 on her, she will agree to be my girlfriend?"

648?

Why such a specific amount?

The master found the number strange, how could there be anyone pursuing a girl with such precise expenditures, isn’t it usually a vague "hundreds or thousands" type?

Moreover, if the girl is really as good as he describes, forget 648, adding a zero, even two would be a great deal!

The young man is indeed too naïve.

These days, dowries are so expensive, dreaming of winning a beauty for merely 648 is pure folly, what kind of family’s girl is so oblivious, marrying you for 648?

Thus, the master utilized his life experience to analyze it for the young man.

Then, putting on a show, he asked the young man for his birth data and the girl’s name to calculate their marriage compatibility.

"Yin Lang?"

Hearing this name, the master instinctively suspected, "No, did you say it wrong? Is there a surname Yin?"

"Oh, she’s a foreigner!"

The young man sighed, "She’s wandering alone, without a home, so I want to give her one."

Foreigner, that makes sense.

The master pondered for a while, mainly unsure if foreigners have dowry custom, and what the standards might be.

After a while, the master finally said, "Young man, don’t rush, I think if you pursue her wholeheartedly again, the marriage will likely materialize."

"Really?"

"Master, do you mean, if I spend another 648 on her, she’ll agree to be my girlfriend?" The young man was excited.

"Relax, accurate predictions..."

Even though Huang Qing doesn’t play much games, at this point realizes that the young man’s girl is likely a game character.

Poor master, played around by the young man, without understanding the real issue.

Sure enough, once the master learned the girl is a game character, his expressions towards the young man changed.

However, the young man didn’t intend to let him go, and took out his laptop, using the "Mountain Village Memories" divination to challenge the master, to see who is really right?

yuan isn’t easy to earn!

Even knowing the young man came to disrupt, the master was still forced to face off with the divination system.

Inevitably, the master’s mystical business is limited to the real world, hasn’t expanded into the virtual network, so the PK was destined to end in failure.

The young man was satisfied.

The master earned two hundred, although his face was figuratively slapped by a program, but earning money is always a good thing, so he didn’t feel losing.

Netizens enjoyed the fun, but they affirmed from another angle that the "Mountain Village Memories" divination system is the "true mysticism."

Can’t you see, even the fortune-teller master feels embarrassed, quietly recoiling his "accurate prediction" sign? Don’t believe? Go ahead, and battle this divination system!

"So?"

Huang Qing inquired, "This video is quite amusing, but how does it relate to the trouble you mentioned?"

"Of course it relates, the relation is that this video went viral, soon people will mimic it!"

Lu explained, "With people mimicking, innocent fortune teller masters suffer, so it’s normal for us to get reported for promoting feudal superstition, isn’t it?"

"Normal... hey, wait!"

Upon hearing the accusation of promoting feudal superstition, Huang Qing initially found no issue, but he quickly thought about it, the reporting came from fortune teller masters?

No...

Whoever reports would seem reasonable, but why specifically a group of fortune teller masters? Don’t they realize who’s truly promoting feudal superstition?
