Chapter 316: Chapter 246 “Sheep” Officially Released Chapter 316: Chapter 246 “Sheep” Officially Released Ti flew by, and before long, it was the official release day for “Sheep.”
This also marked the official start of the “Sheep” campus competition at Technology University.
You wouldn’t believe it, but room 212 in the East Building was actually buzzing with activity.
At the mont, since Brother Zhu was busy with other matters, everyone felt freer to chat.
“Let’s put in so effort these next two days and see if we can get through one internally? Help Brother Zhu with clearing so prize money internally!” Dong Dong joked.
“Laughable, you know how difficult the ga is, right? We made it, and we can’t even get past it ourselves normally!” soone retorted with a laugh.
“No one clearing it isn’t good either. Didn’t we develop a cheat too? How about I be the one to cheat and bear the sin!” Liu Feng joked along, “Leader Wei Bo! Liu Feng requests permission to cheat!”
“Are you bearing the sin? You just want to hog all the prize money!” Dong Dong smacked him on the shoulder.
“Say, do you think the boss added that rule last minute because he thought perhaps no one in the school could clear it, so he decided to donate the unclaid prize money to the school?” one of the studio mbers pondered, stroking his chin analytically.
Wei Bo waved his hand and said, “According to our algorithm and the number of students here, if enough people play, there’s still a chance soone can clear it within two days.”
“And the difficulty of the levels these two days isn’t that outrageous.”
“It’s just that the prize pool of fifty thousand, I guess it won’t be fully given away, and the remainder being donated to the school makes sense. Otherwise, so people might say ugly things like the prize pool wasn’t even fully dispersed, the ga so difficult, they don’t want to give away money. Donating to the school can at least shut so nasty mouths.” He analyzed.
“Ouch, makes sense. So people do speak very horribly, saying things like the prize pool isn’t even fully dispersed because the ga is made too hard on purpose, not wanting to give away money. Donating to the school can shut up so of those mouths,” Dong Dong nodded repeatedly.
“So, Brother Zhu had this planned out early!” Mr. Dong felt enlightened.
“Possibly,” Wei Bo responded with a smile.
After speaking, he glanced towards the door and then whispered, “Besides that, I personally think there’s another reason. But it’s just my speculation, so take it with a grain of salt!”
“Let’s hear it!” Everyone imdiately leaned in.
“Since we’re doing a ga competition, you know, so school leaders are definitely a bit resistant to it. Although college isn’t like high school, it’s normal to have many leaders with different personalities and ideas.”
“Dean Zhang and Director Li both value our studio highly and can really support us, but adding a donating elent, even if it’s not a lot of money, looks better publicly, doesn’t it?”
“Anyway, it’s just wild guesswork.”
So, they chatted back and forth like this for over ten minutes.
Finally, they each couldn’t help but wonder, “Who knows who is playing our ga right now?”
…
…
anwhile, Boss Cheng, who was out on the release day of the ga, happened to catch soone playing “Sheep.”
— The manager of Youu Co to Play, Wang Wei.
She had been busy in her shop the past few days, handing over her duties to a new manager selected by Xu Shao and Pei Yan.
This morning was the final handover.
aning, from now on, she was no longer a mber of the toy crane shop.
Earlier, Brother Zhu had discussed with her, and she was willing to work with him at the bubble tea shop.
And now, Brother Zhu was here to pick her up.
But unexpectedly, she was sitting at the cashier, in the very spot Brother Zhu often sat, playing “Sheep.”
“Let’s go,” Brother Zhu tapped lightly on the desk, nearly startling Wang Wei who was engrossed in the ga.
In the shop, Xu Shao wasn’t there, but Pei Yan was.
This elegant freak imdiately greeted Brother Zhu and even ca over.
“The shop’s doing well, I see,” Brother Zhu remarked casually.
“Yeah, it hasn’t rained these past two days, so business has picked up again,” Pei Yan obviously in a good mood.
“That’s good,” Brother Zhu smiled, not really wanting to chat more, and walked out of the toy crane shop with Wang Wei.
Watching them leave, Pei Yan’s smile gradually faded.
He always disliked how haughty Brother Zhu acted.
After leaving the toy crane shop, Wang Wei spoke to Brother Zhu, “Boss, although the gaplay is quite simple, I don’t know why, but I find it quite fun.”
Brother Zhu, looking at her absorbed yet calm deanor, imdiately asked, “You haven’t been playing long, have you?”
“Right, just about fifteen minutes,” Wang Wei checked the ti.
“No wonder.”
“Ah? What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, let’s go, get in the car, I’ll take you to the bubble tea studio,” Brother Zhu didn’t explain further.
He was considering training her to be the manager of the bubble tea shop.
This person is very ticulous. The toy crane shop is so busy, yet rarely makes mistakes, and that’s quite comndable.
So people might manage to be detailed on a regular day, but once the scene becos chaotic and crowded, they too can beco frazzled.
The Land Rover thus left the grand avenue outside the school.
Sitting in the shop, Pei Yan also rembered, “Today is the day Brother Zhu’s ga is released.”
He looked down at his own phone, feeling conflicted.
“Forget it, just download it and see.”
“I want to see what kind of impressive ga he made!”
“I’m not going to contribute data to him, I’ll just play one round!”
“Yeah, just one round, just to get a feel!”
An hour later…
Xu Shao got out of his Porsche and entered the toy crane shop.
He quickly saw Pei Yan sitting in a corner.
Pei Yan was frowning, his index finger hovering over the screen, sotis wanting to tap, sotis shaking his head and pulling back.
It looked like he was struggling with a significant decision.
Xu Shao walked over, puzzled, and bent down to see that the guy was actually playing a ga!
“Pei!” Xu Shao called out, visibly displeased.
We just took over the shop, and we agreed to work hard, didn’t we!
Damn, it’s only been a few days, and you’re already playing gas on your phone in the shop!
“Brother Shao,” Pei Yan looked up, surprised, “You’re here.”
“What ga is so interesting?” he asked, sowhat scolding.
“Well… the ga Brother Zhu just released today, I was just curious and thought of downloading it to take a look,” Pei Yan explained.
“Hm? Brother Zhu’s ga?” Xu Shao paused, then asked, “Is it fun?”
“Not really,” Pei Yan didn’t know how to describe, “It’s just a matching ga, quite monotonous actually.”
After chatting a bit more, Pei Yan left first as he had sothing to do at school.
Xu Shao sat down on the bespoke chair behind the cash register that Cheng Zhu used to occupy, feeling a bit itchy himself.
He couldn’t resist pulling out his phone, downloading “Sheep,” and thought similarly to Pei Yan:
“I’m not going to contribute data to him, I’ll just play one round!”
“Yeah, just one round, just to get a feel!”
…
…
In the Technology University innovation park, Director Li’s office.
This head of the student entrepreneurship center suddenly rembered that today was the official release day for “Sheep.”
He recalled his tryout session in room 212 of the East Building.
Hmm…
As he walked downstairs, a thought occurred to him: “That last move, I shouldn’t have thought about eliminating the fork; I should’ve gone for the scissors first, maybe then I could have cleared everything piled up beneath!”
A middle-aged man nearing his fifties had no idea just how bad the young man he esteed could be!
At the mont, Director Li felt a bit of an itch in his hands.
He picked up his phone and started downloading “Sheep.”
Once downloaded, Director Li quietly pulled out his reading glasses from the thick pocket of his black jacket.
After putting on the glasses, he imdiately turned off the sound on his phone.
“The background noise in this ga is too noisy.” He didn’t like it much.
Most importantly, he felt the sounds in the ga were noisy and silly.
Quite enchanting and brainwashing, but not befitting the image of a dignified university director.
If others heard these sounds, they’d certainly think I was playing sothing very foolish.
Well, this ga seems pretty simple to operate, doesn’t seem all that clever, does it?
At that mont, Director Li discovered a detail: “Can you join a ‘sheep flock’?”
After clearing “Sheep,” the ga randomly awards you with a specially imaged sheep, and you can join a sheep flock.
In the ga, the number of sheep each province adds to the flock is publicly displayed.
In simpler terms, the provinces are ranked against each other.
Director Li didn’t pay much attention to this and eagerly opened the ga, deciding to rise from where he had fallen!
However, when he got to the second level, he couldn’t help but pause.
“Why is this deploynt different from last ti?” He looked at the level, feeling completely unfamiliar.
Extra patterns had appeared on both sides.
Director Li didn’t yet know that the arrangent for the second level changes daily.
He thus began playing the ga while on paid ti in his office.
“Just one round,” he thought.
He assud that last ti, when he tried the ga, he at least cleared half of it, only to discover today that he probably didn’t even clear a quarter.
The ga quickly ended, and Director Li felt he had cleared much more this ti than last!
His finger involuntarily tapped to restart.
I am the head of the student entrepreneurship center, and this is a ga project under my supervision.
What’s wrong with checking it a few tis?
No problem.
Twenty minutes later, there was a knock on the office door: “Knock, knock, knock!”
“Who is it?” Director Li asked, looking up while still wearing his reading glasses.
The door opened, and Dean Zhang of the School of Information walked in.
“Old Zhang, what brings you here?” Director Li put down his phone, removed his reading glasses, and smiled, “I was just studying that ga developed by your student.”
“A ga? You an Cheng Zhu?” Dean Zhang caught on.
This short old man squinted his eyes as he chuckled: “A ga developed by young people, do you understand how to play it?”
Director Li, displeased, picked up his phone, “It’s quite simple. Just match three items together to eliminate them!”
“Look, these three carrots, I put them together, and hey! They’re gone!” He even demonstrated the gaplay to Dean Zhang.
“Try it for yourself,” Dean Zhang, curious about Cheng Zhu’s ga, suggested.
Since both were already familiar with each other, Director Li flatly refused, “Just download it on your phone, I’m playing this round better than my last, don’t ss it up for .”
Dean Zhang: “…”
As the dean of the School of Information, although he was no longer young, he definitely wasn’t like those elderly who couldn’t use smartphones.
He sat down on the office sofa, then… quietly pulled out his own reading glasses.
