Have you ever made games? Then you should write about games!

On a summer evening, as the sun sets in the west, the temperature does not decrease at all, but instead tends to rise, making people feel irritable and unbearable.

Inside the classroom, students eagerly anticipate the upcoming summer vacation; in the office, corporate slaves slack off while contemplating which pond or stream to visit after get off work for a couple of swings.

For gamers, each of the three pieces of news that suddenly broke out in the community was extremely eye-catching.

First, StarCard Games posted the latest updates about their next game on their official account, which has nearly 100,000 followers.

Thanks to the combined efforts of all employees, the first version of "Vampire Survivor" has been completed and has successfully entered the testing phase. It is expected to be released seamlessly after the development festival.

Furthermore, Starcard Games will also launch a special bundle where players can purchase both "Devil Roulette" and "Vampire Survivors" at a 30% discount.

The latest work from the up-and-coming Starcard Games has received extremely high praise from both the industry and the player community.

However, there is no shortage of opposing views online, and there are quite a few bloggers who are pessimistic about Starcard Games and Vampire Survivors.

Among them are gaming influencers with over a million followers who have publicly called for a boycott of Star Card Games, a company that fabricates rumors to gain traffic.

Surprisingly, it received a lot of positive reviews and approval in the comments section.

However, the second piece of news was a slap in the face to many people.

[Originally from Xingka Games, now an employee of Tengyan Networks publicly admitted that "The Rock Isle" was stolen by a disgraced producer and transferred to Tengyan!]

Originally, many people believed Teng Yan and thought that Xingka was fabricating rumors in order to gain traffic from Teng Yan.

The vast majority of netizens, however, maintained a neutral stance.

Now, those who experienced the events firsthand within Tengyan Company have come forward to speak out, causing the online sentiment to quickly shift in favor of Xingka Games.

Many netizens who had previously maintained a neutral stance have gradually become more inclined towards Star Card Games.

After all, if StarCard Games were truly spreading rumors, why didn't Teng Yan choose to report it to the police instead of simply issuing a meaningless announcement?

As the incident escalated, 30 minutes after the news broke, Tengyan Networks issued another announcement denying the negative comments about Tengyan circulating online.

At the same time, Teng Yan also posted a case filing receipt, threatening to use legal means to recover the losses suffered by Teng Yan.

Teng Yan's move did curb the spread of public opinion to some extent, but if he cannot produce more evidence later, it will still arouse doubts from the player community, and may even trigger a greater backlash.

As for the last piece of news, it came from staff inside the steam platform.

Although its authenticity remains to be verified, it has still attracted a large number of netizens.

On the forum, the thread about this news has already been posted over a hundred times.

"Guys, is this melon guaranteed to be ripe?"

"Didn't you read the original poster's comments? This post is just hearsay; you can judge for yourself whether it's true or false."

"In my opinion, this news is highly credible. I have long suspected that the fact that 'The Rocky Isle' was able to reach the top three of the popularity charts was due to inside manipulation."

"Same as above. The quality of 'The Rocky Isle' is so poor that it's already a miracle to even make it into the top ten, let alone break into the top three."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! You just can't stand to see Teng Yan do well, you bunch of rookie generals!"

"If you don't like it, get out. Yan Xiaozi's stench is too strong."

"..."

……

Beijing, headquarters of Steam Game Technology Co., Ltd., back-end data management department.

Even though it was well past the end of the workday, no one in the department had left. Like diligent worker bees, they were busy checking the backend data for any errors or omissions.

As the department head, Huang Ang did not have to do the complicated and tedious inspection work that others did.

However, he preferred to do inspection work rather than stand next to the imposing deputy general manager.

Ren Kang sat in the chair that originally belonged to Huang Ang, his back ramrod straight, his attention completely focused on the data he had compiled in his hands.

Every time he flipped through the documents in his hand, Huang Ang, who was standing beside him, would feel his heart skip a beat.

As the saying goes, if you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear.

But Huang Ang had done something wrong, and just then, Ren Kang, the devil himself, came knocking on his door.

For Huang Ang, every minute and every second felt like an eternity.

The last time he experienced something like this was when he forgot to wear his red scarf in elementary school and encountered the principal checking at the school gate.

The same racing heartbeat, the same restlessness.

"Manager Huang."

Huang Ang was focused on observing Ren Kang's expression, and only snapped back to reality after being called several times.

"Manager Huang, your tea is hot, please be careful."

Taking the paper cup from Ren Kang's female secretary, Huang Ang carefully blew away the steam and took a small sip.

The warm tea flowed into his stomach, quickly warming up Huang Ang's somewhat cold limbs.

"Turn up the office air conditioning, so that Supervisor Huang doesn't catch a cold."

The sound of turning pages continued, and Ren Kang didn't even look up.

"Yes."

The pretty female secretary nodded and turned to leave.

"Thank you, Mr. Ren."

Seeing the female secretary leave, Huang Ang quickly thanked her.

"No need." Ren Kang waved his hand, raised his head, adjusted his glasses, and looked at Huang Ang.

"Manager Huang, you are the best programmer in the company. If something happens to your health, it will be a loss for the company."

As he spoke, Ren Kang handed the documents in his hand to Huang Ang.

"Manager Huang, the backend data for 'Yanduyu' seems to have changed significantly around last Friday."

In your opinion, could there be a problem with the backend data?

Facing Ren Kang's gaze, which seemed to see right through him, Huang Ang swallowed slightly, carefully took the documents, and pretended to flip through them.

After thinking for a moment, he slowly spoke.

"Manager Ren, this is probably because it's the weekend, which is why the data for 'Yanduyu' has increased significantly."

Although it seems somewhat unusual, it's still within a reasonable range.

Ren Kang didn't say anything to Huang Ang's explanation, just nodded and turned his gaze to the employees who were carrying out the inspection work, as if talking to himself or implying something.

"If the data is normal and everything is within a reasonable range, then it's fine;"

If it is discovered that someone has defied the rules, I will not tolerate it!

Upon hearing this, Huang Ang nodded repeatedly in agreement.

In fact, his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

All he could do was pray that the inspectors wouldn't uncover the tricks he'd made in the system's backend.

Not long after.

Xiao Li approached Ren Kang and Huang Ang.

He glanced at Huang Ang first, then looked down at the report in his hand and said loudly.

"Manager Ren, no traces of modification have been found in the database yet. It seems that the significant increase in the data for 'Yandu Island' is due to the weekend."

Further investigation would not only require more time but could also impact the progress of the development festival.

After Xiao Li finished speaking, Huang Ang felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders and immediately looked at Ren Kang.

"Manager Ren, it seems the situation is as I predicted."

Ren Kang nodded slightly, giving Huang Ang a meaningful look, especially noticing the fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

Ren Kang stood up and walked outside.

"Let's put this matter aside for now and conduct a more in-depth investigation after the Development Festival ends."

After watching Ren Kang leave the data management department, Huang Ang finally breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He picked up the paper cup on the table and, ignoring the temperature, drank it all in one gulp.

However, Xiao Li's next words made Huang Ang's heart sink.

"Supervisor, I just checked and there is indeed a problem with the backend data."

However, for the sake of our department, I've kept it a secret for now.

Huang Ang turned his head and saw Xiao Li looking at him with an expression that seemed to be seeking praise.
