I Just Want Players to Save Money, They Insist on Giving Me! Chapter 71 - 71 43 Revoke the Advertisement1

Chapter 71: Chapter 43: Revoke the Advertisent!_1 Chapter 71: Chapter 43: Revoke the Advertisent!_1 The mountains were clear and the waters were beautiful, with lush green grass stretching onward.

Thanks to recent rainfall, the sunshine was warm but not harsh, and small scattered clouds ford the shapes of puffs in the sky.

“We’re here.”

Ke Jun had rented a van and took his family of four, along with a special invited guest, to the outskirts of Jianglin City, to Xanwei Lake.

From an aerial view, the lake resembled a silver serpent biting its own tail, where the sunlight made the rippling water glisten like shining snake scales.

That’s why it was given its na.

After parking the car on the side of the road, Ke Jun and Ke Jin, the two grown n, hopped out to retrieve the luggage from the trunk.

Mrs. Ke followed suit, alighting from the vehicle with two little girls.

Standing next to Ke Yu was a standard oval-faced girl, almost as tall as Ke Yu at about 1.65 ters.

She had her hair tied back in a high ponytail, exposing her fair and full forehead, her eyes as clean and flawless as though they were made of glass, and underneath her delicate and pert nose, her cherry-pink lips were lightly pursed as she lingered on the surrounding scenery with her gaze.

“Wow, this environnt is amazing,” Luo Xinlin uttered a soft sigh of admiration, “I never knew this place existed, even after living in Jianglin for eighteen years.”

“Xinlin, you’d better not tell anyone about this place,” Ke Jun admonished seriously as he set up the barbecue grill, “Not even your dad, that old guy still owes 12 tails, and I’m counting on this secret base to get ahead of him.”

“12 tails?” Luo Xinlin blinked.

“Fish,” Ke Jin said as he placed a portable cooler on the ground and took out a bottle of sparkling water to hand to Luo Xinlin, “Here.”

“Thank you, brother,” Luo Xinlin was about to reach out for it.

“Hey!” But her attempt was cut off by a small palm that intervened.

Without any courtesy, Ke Yu snatched the water from Ke Jin’s hand, shook it in her hand, and said with a sweet smile, “Thank you, brother!”

“Get up… Can’t you grab it yourself?” Ke Jin rolled his eyes, clearly annoyed.

Luo Xinlin stood by, covering her mouth with her hand, letting out a light chuckle.

She was dressed in a white tee paired with a pleated miniskirt that gave off a schoolgirl vibe, complented by a pair of brand-new white sneakers.

Standing in this land of fragrant grass, her aura was enhanced, making her appear even more pure and pristine.

Even Ke Jin, who had seen countless beautiful faces and developed so immunity to them, couldn’t help but take a few extra glances.

Of course, offering her the water wasn’t a deliberate charm offensive.

This young girl had been in the sa elentary school as Ke Yu ten years ago, then went on to the sa middle school and high school, and now hand in hand, they both attended Jianglin University; their friendship was solid as iron.

Their hos were close to each other, and over the past ten years, Ke Jin had seen her countless tis, becoming quite familiar with her.

She also called him “brother” along with Ke Yu.

But while Ke Yu sotis called him more casually—brother, stinker, hey, Mr. Ke, Ke—whatever ca naturally, Luo Xinlin was always polite and sweetly called him “brother” every ti.

Ke Jin quite liked that.

Yet in his heart, he simply saw her as a little sister from next door whom he looked after without any ulterior motives.

Right, if there were to be a second child, they could take the mother’s surna Luo.

…

Before long, a simple open-air BBQ setup was complete.

Mrs. Ke brought down a selection of prepared vegetables, ats, beverages, and wine from the car.

Although they had joked before that their al depended on how much fish Ke caught, that was obviously just a joke.

Really relying on his fishing, a whole family, plus soone else’s child, could starve.

Taking advantage of the fact that Mrs. Ke had already started to get things organized,

Ke Jun had set up a small folding stool by the river, propped up a support pole, and took out the bait he had prepared early, ready to start fishing.

The three youngsters were imdiately drawn to the scene.

Although Ke Jin occasionally ca across fishing videos, he was still only vaguely familiar with the sport itself, struggling to appreciate its pleasures.

The two girls were completely clueless, and driven by curiosity, they also moved forward to watch.

Perhaps invigorated by the audience, Ke Jun stood straight, his teaching habits kicking in, prompting him to start explaining the fishing process to the kids.

“Actually, the most important part of fishing isn’t the technique, but the bait,” he explained.

“Bait is like our food. If the dishes aren’t tasty, they won’t attract custors. Similarly, if the bait isn’t good, the fish won’t bite. These days, fish are very particular.”

Ke Jin really wanted to say ‘who asked you,’ but noticing the Seven Wolves belt around his dad’s waist, he refrained from making any remarks.

“The ratio of bait to water is generally 1:1, but it depends on the situation. If there are lots of small miscellaneous fish, add more water, making the bait thinner so it disperses quickly in the water and attracts more small fish.”

“If there are many large fish, then make the bait thicker so it can hook the fish precisely.”

The two girls nodded as if they understood, while Ke Jin, on the other hand, started pondering.

You know, my dad looks really serious about this, with all sorts of fishing techniques and skills well-mastered, like a king of shore fishing, but why is it that he never seems to catch any fish?

But soon, Ke Jin thought about himself.

Every ga he developed was thoroughly prepared, and he took every precaution, but in the end, they were always ‘Buy it’ bombed.

Turns out I’m the sa, eh? Then it’s alright.

Like father, like son, right?

However, this situation was going to change.

The ga “Skyline” will put an end to his current streak of four battles, four defeats!

As of today, it has been 15 days since the ga launched, and it is also the last day of the system task deadline.

Yet, the back-end statistics are steady as an old dog’s—absolutely zero!

The contract for the promotional push with WWga also expired at dawn today, ending the campaign.

The download numbers had far exceeded his expectations.

Up to this point, it had almost reached a high of 300,000, with nearly 30,000 players bookmarking the “Number One Player” official website.

This would be a promising start for the future developnt of the company.

This is also why Ke Jin could go out with peace of mind to celebrate his little sister’s birthday today.

So stable it’s not even worth discussing!

Everything is under control. Brother here is truly about to soar!

“Cancel the ads?”

Inside the eting room of Number One Player Company.

As the host of this temporary eting, Gou Chehua caused the employees to look at each other in disbelief after bringing up the plan to cancel the advertisents.

Mr. Ke had said at the ga’s launch ti within the company, “We’re currently in the stage of accumulating users, so let’s have players spend less, and we’ll make so ad revenue. It’s a win-win.”

At that ti, the employees inwardly thought that Mr. Ke had a grand vision.

The industry is fiercely competitive, sacrificing a portion of profit to cultivate user loyalty.

That strategy, truly brilliant!

But when Director Gou suddenly ntioned canceling the ads today, they were all confused.

But soon, Gou Chehua clarified the reason.

That morning, the Ga Supervisory Bureau had called.

They wanted to feature the outstanding ga “Skyline” on the official bureau’s Weibo account to drive traffic to it.

Given that the bureau’s official Weibo had been managed quite well and had several million followers in the past few years, this promotion was sure to bring much more exposure.

Moreover, being recognized by the official Weibo was certainly sothing to celebrate!

You should know that previously, many gas with decent revenue had been turned down when they desperately sought recomnded status on the official platform.

They couldn’t even kneel down to beg for this opportunity!

But the bureau also stated that to be featured, the ga had to remove its in-ga ads. After all, the randomness of those ads was too great and they could easily pop up so lowbrow and inappropriate inducents.

“I see,” the employees realized in enlightennt.

But there were still employees who said,

“Director Gou, shouldn’t we discuss this with Mr. Ke first? If we cancel the ads and the in-ga purchases don’t make as much as the ad revenue, and Mr. Ke blas us… none of us can bear that responsibility…”

“Responsibility?” Hearing this, Gou Chehua imdiately frowned with disappointnt and said angrily, “Are you so afraid of taking responsibility?”

“Mr. Ke works day and night for the company, putting in every effort to enrich the details in the proposals to lighten our workload. Now that he’s finally taking a few days off, we disturb him with every little thing that crops up. What’s the point in us being part of the company then? Just leave everything to the boss and it’s done.”

“Besides, have you ever seen a normal company where every big and small matter needs to be reported to the chairman? Aren’t problems usually resolved with the managers leading the employees?”

This speech made the employees feel imnsely ashad.

Think about it…

In other companies, the boss usually takes a hands-off approach, delegating everything to the employees, who naturally prefer pushing unnecessary troubles to the boss to resolve.

But what about Number One Player Company?

How does the boss there operate?

Proposals, design solutions, modeling, copies, music, and so on… he has enriched and perfected all these details, truly pouring his heart and soul into them.

He also always encourages the staff with kind words like, “Even if the ga doesn’t sell well, don’t put too much pressure on yourselves,” and “I really don’t care much about the ga’s sales, everyone needn’t worry.”

How could there be any boss who wouldn’t want their ga to be a big hit?

That must be the boss trying to comfort them deliberately.

To empathize and soothe the employees’ state of mind, such a boss is truly hard to find!

Now, when it’s ti to make a decision, why does everybody instinctively want to shirk responsibility?

Cowardice!

What a cowardly act!

“Let’s follow Director Gou’s instructions then and cancel the ads! We don’t need to tell Mr. Ke; let him rest in peace,” an employee voiced with newfound courage.

“Right! If sothing really goes wrong, I’m wiiling to take the responsibility!”

“ too!”

“Agreed!”

Watching the employee’s consciousness slowly rise, Gou Chehua nodded and said.

“Good, that’s the spirit! This is what a company with cohesion and a spirit of adventure looks like!”

“Besides, this ti the officials are helping us promote the ga on their own initiative, and no matter how you look at it, it’s a good thing. Considering the millions of followers on the official Weibo, this wave of promotion is naturally going to be effective! Later on, we can also quietly give Mr. Ke a nice surprise!”

“So…”

Gou Chehua glanced over the employees and said solemnly.

“Start removing the ads! Also, who among you knows how to modify the program written by Mr. Ke? We need to be fast and can’t keep the officials waiting.”

“I’ll do it!” An employee imdiately raised their hand.

“I can do it too!”

“I’m in charge of writing the code.”

“I’ll handle syncing it up.”

Watching the young employees eagerly raise their hands one after another, Gou Chehua showed a relieved smile.

“Well done. If Number One Player Company grows bigger and stronger in the future, each of you will have played an indispensable role! Mr. Ke will definitely want to comnd you when he finds out!”
