Losing Money to Be a Tycoon-Chapter 1673: Which Company Is So Lawless!

Everyone in Dream Stealing Games got busy in the following week.

Even Chen Yu did not expect things to get on the right track so quickly.

That was because everything Pei Qian said at the meeting had come true!

As expected, Tengda Corporation announced a piece of news that made the entire gaming circle boil with excitement this week: They were going to gradually virtualize the entire Tengda Corporation in augmented reality, make it into art materials, and upload it for everyone to use for free!

This meant that any independent game designer could directly use this huge and rich material library. Many independent game designers could also create games that were not inferior to AAA masterpieces without the restriction of art resources.

Of course, the company that benefited the most was Dream Stealing Games.

The game that they wanted to create, 'Destruction of Tengda', could really use these art resources.

Other than that, Ruan Guangjian actually agreed to design an art style for them. Moreover, he only accepted a symbolic fee. It was definitely a friendly price.

That was where they could seriously plan the game content and perfect its mechanism. When the art resources were released, they could use the art style template given by Ruan Guangjian to set it up. They could build most of the game's shelves almost instantaneously.

This was simply twice the result with half the effort!

Chen Yu couldn't help but sigh. He had found the right person!

Even if this stand-in actor only knew how to act and not design, just relying on his connections and internal information was enough to provide them with enough value!

Moreover, he was actually really good at designing.

Thus, the game was developed in full swing and gradually approached completion.

However, Chen Yu still had one last worry.

This game had indeed been created, but could such a game that slandered or cursed Tengda really succeed in business?

Chen Yu could not help but sigh when he saw that Pei Qian did not care at all. He really did not take his old boss seriously!

However, he had no choice but to give it a try now that things had come to this.

Perhaps a miracle would happen after the game was officially released?

…

…

Half a year later.

Qiao Liang yawned. He continued rummaging through the game platform with two dark circles under his eyes.

"D*mn it… I have to stay up late every time I update the 'Trash Games Diss' segment…"

In fact, Qiao Liang was already a well-known game UP on the Internet. With his popularity, he did not need to make content too seriously.

Nowadays he would start a livestream to receive gifts or casually do some reviews and promotions when he had nothing to do. He would also participate in some business activities and earn a lot of money.

It was just like on Aili Island's website. UP owners with hundreds of fans were dedicating all kinds of amazing quality content, while UP owners with millions of fans were playing the 'Don't Laugh' challenge.

However, Qiao Liang was still a person with aspirations. He did not forget his original intention and was still updating the series of videos, 'Trash Games Diss'.

However, it was easier said than done to not forget one's original intention.

Qiao Liang wished he could pull out all his remaining hair every time he found a trashy game.

At this moment, he suddenly frowned.

"'Destruction of Tengda'?"

"Good lord, who is it? So lawless! This company is definitely trying to ride on the popularity!"

"Such a shameless game company, I must get my fans to flame them to death!"

Qiao Liang felt his blood boil. How could he tolerate this as Pei Qian's best bro?

He had to download the game and criticize it!

Qiao Liang immediately clicked on the purchase button and waited patiently for the download to be completed.

…

When Qiao Liang entered the game with a critical attitude, the first thing that appeared on the screen was the interior scene of a bus.

Yes, at this moment, the character in the game was sitting in the bus and looking at the scenery outside the window.

He had been to Tengda Corporation's headquarters more than once, so he was relatively familiar with this path and recognized it at a glance.

The perspective seemed to be bobbing up and down along with the movement of the bus, making Qiao Liang mistakenly think that this was a cutscene animation and that it had not entered the real game segment.

However, after waiting for a while, he realized that something was wrong, so he tried to push the right joystick, only to find that he could control the view.

From left to right.

His line of sight looked away from the left-hand window and looked right into the interior of the bus. He realized that there was no one there except himself. It could even be said to be a little desolate.

"Is it so obvious right away? Is it really the Destruction of Tengda?"

Qiao Liang knew that this bus to Tengda would be full in reality even though there were many timings for this bus.

However, there was no one around now. This indirectly confirmed the fate of 'Destruction of Tengda'.

Qiao Liang did not find anything after looking around. He waited for a while but still did not trigger the next step.

At this moment, an inconspicuous notification appeared at the bottom right corner of his vision, telling him to turn the right joystick.

"Oh? I've already turned the joystick."

Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment before he thought of pushing the joystick up and down until the bottom of his vision.

Only then did he realize that he was holding a tablet computer and a bouquet of white flowers.

This tablet computer was the key to triggering the next step.

"I see. This game deliberately didn't make very deliberate guidance in order to enhance the immersion. In the beginning, it only allowed the players to figure out the buttons and interact. They will give an inconspicuous hint only when the players haven't figured out the trick for a period of time."

The ingenious design at the beginning made Qiao Liang have an inexplicably good impression of this game.

Of course, he still had to criticize. He just had to be realistic and selective.

He looked at the tablet computer in his hand and began to read the information on it.

The first page was an artistic structural map of Tengda Corporation. There were a few larger sections on it, such as Tengda Games, Fish-Catching Take-Out, Upwind Logistics, Fei Huang Workspace, and so on.

However, they were all covered in vines and weeds from the scene, as if they were completely abandoned.

One could see the specific situation of each department by pushing the joystick to the right.

By pushing the joystick to the right, one could see the specific situation of each department.

The character in the game stood up and stepped off the bus.

At that moment, Qiao Liang subconsciously pushed the left joystick and realized that he could move.

The once popular Tengda Corporation's headquarters building had already become desolate. Countless vines crawled all over the entrance.

On the other hand, Qiao Liang controlled the game character to pull away the vines and enter. There was an inexplicable atmosphere of heart palpitation and sorrow even though it was still daytime and the sun was shining brightly.

The entire map seemed to have been designed according to the structure of Tengda Corporation's headquarters.

Obviously, they had used the resources that Tengda had placed online some time ago. They had only adjusted the style and details.

He walked forward. According to the information on the first page of the tablet computer, he seemed to be touring the entire desolated Tengda headquarters in a certain order.

Of course, there were some automatic connections between the various departments in the game. For example, Qiao Liang would find some balanced cars that could still move or could quickly reach the other departments through rock climbing.

Otherwise, it would really become a walking simulator if it was done in the game with the size of Tengda Corporation's headquarters.

Soon, he arrived at the first section: Tengda Games department.

The office area of the gaming department that had once nurtured countless top game designers had already declined. Tables and chairs were arranged messily, and the design idea of the game could still be seen on the whiteboard. There were also paper cups scattered in the conference room. It seemed that many people had been discussing the details of a new game a second ago.

Tables and chairs were arranged messily, and the design idea of the game could still be seen on the whiteboard. There were also paper cups scattered in the conference room. It seemed that many people had been discussing the details of a new game a second ago.

He walked around and came to the eye-catching computer— The only one with a bright display screen.

With a soft click, the two were connected.

The next second, a line of words appeared on the tablet.

[Tengda Games is the first business that Tengda Corporation dabbled in. It was also seen as the soul of the entire Tengda Corporation.]

[The people in charge of this place, such as Huang Sibo and Lu Mingliang, have either become the top game designers or the heads of departments in Tengda Corporation.]

[This place has also produced The Lonely Desert Road, Ghost General, Ocean Stronghold, Game Designer, and a series of popular works.]

[But when the disaster came, the gaming department was the first to be destroyed…]

The perspective of the game seemed to be the combination of the screen of the tablet as these lines of words appeared. The words did not change, but the surrounding scene naturally changed.

Qiao Liang realized that his vision had changed drastically when he looked up again!

"Da da da da…"

BOOM!

Gunshots and explosions came from all directions. Qiao Liang was a little frightened. He quickly controlled the game character to dodge and realized that he seemed to be in the battlefield of the Ocean Stronghold.

A large number of zombies were rushing towards him!

The surrounding scene might still be the dilapidated and desolate Tengda Corporation headquarters, but the entire game's combat system seemed to have instantly become "Ocean Stronghold".

Qiao Liang did not think too much about it. He quickly took out his gun and fired at the zombies.

The battle mode might not have changed, but fighting in the headquarters building was like the game scene and reality had strangely merged into one. It still gave Qiao Liang a very novel feeling.

But more zombies soon appeared.

The battle mode might not have changed, but fighting in the headquarters building was like the game scene and reality had strangely merged into one. It still gave Qiao Liang a very novel feeling.

Right at this moment, he saw a gun drop from somewhere.

"Pick it up and keep fighting!"

He rushed over and picked it up without thinking.

This was a Bluefire Gatling Gun with 999 bullets!

Qiao Liang was instantly overjoyed. The sea of zombies from before could not withstand a single blow from him.

However, more zombies and stronger enemies appeared before he could feel good for long.

This time, the Bluefire Gatling Gun was no longer of any help.

Another gun dropped from the sky.

Qiao Liang picked it up again without thinking.

This time, he noticed that there seemed to be a line of small words below the two airdropped guns. It seemed to be a three-digit price tag?

However, he did not think too much about it. This game did not have a currency system or a charging system. In any case, it was fine as long as he could pick it up. The battle was urgent, so he did not have the time to think about it.

"Da da da da…"

Initially, there seemed to be some people fighting alongside him, but soon, the gunshots disappeared. Clearly, they were drowned by the zombie wave.

However, the game did not end the moment he was swallowed up. Instead, a digital stream of light spread out, changing everything in front of him.

The overwhelming number of zombies turned into soldiers wearing yellow scarves.

The character he controlled also changed from a first-person shooter to the Dragon Clan's Martial Saint, Guan Yu, who held the Green Dragon Crescent Blade.

This time, he could swing the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and cut melons and vegetables.

However, it did not take long for the number of minions to increase again. Moreover, some of the minions swelled up and became even stronger Bosses. The Green Dragon Crescent Blade made sand scraping sounds whenever it was used to chop something.

At this moment, a new weapon fell from the sky.

The Heavenly Halberd!

Qiao Liang immediately rushed over and picked up the Heavenly Halberd, ignoring the four-digit price tag below. He instantly transformed into Demon God Lu Bu and started killing again.

Just like that, the scene in front of him became a different game again after repeating a few more cycles.

These games were classic games that had been created by Tengda. What's more, they all had one thing in common. The monsters were constantly strengthening. Qiao Liang had to pick up various paid weapons to last longer.

But in the end, he was still devoured by the monsters that kept leveling up.

After a tough battle, with the last scene switch, 'The Future You Choose' ended. Qiao Liang returned to the original dilapidated reality scene.

The game section had also changed on the tablet computer. This meant that he had already ended this stage of his experience.

...

Next, Qiao Liang continued walking around the dilapidated building.

The player experience was actually a linear process even though the headquarters building looks huge.

The game would allow players to experience these different departments in a specific order through just the right guidance and hints.

The game would allow players to experience these different departments in a specific order through just the right guidance and hints.

This was the first time Qiao Liang had seen such a method of guidance. It was completed through subtitles.

This character would recall bits and pieces of his work in the Tengda headquarters building as he walked. Subtitles appeared on the screen as these memories were retold.

However, these subtitles did not appear at the bottom of the screen. Instead, they appeared in the scene. It might be beside a door or a pillar. It fit the scene very well and was not abrupt at all. At the same time, it was guiding Qiao Liang in the right direction.

One could also find the main line very smoothly in a chaotic and complicated environment.

Qiao Liang took the tablet and went to the other departments after that.

He would still see a cutting-edge description of this department after plugging in the tablet. Then, the surrounding scene would instantly change.

However, the changes in different departments were also very different.

The gaming department brought him into reminiscing about those classic battle games again.

Fish-Catching Take-Out was a little different. It's perspective was looking down at the entire city and countless delivery men shuttled through it.

Players could accelerate the delivery speed and increase efficiency by adjusting the AI data backstage of the system, thus making each order more valuable.

Players would be considered to have cleared the level when he tested the limit value continuously.

It was different for Upwind Logistics again. This mini game seemed to have nothing to do with Upwind Logistics in reality.

The player appeared in a cramped and dark basement. They had to mechanically repeat a series of actions such as brushing their teeth, washing their faces, opening cans, eating cans, and moving their bodies.

Day after day, cycle after cycle.

However, one would find that there seemed to be laughter coming from a wall in such a boring cycle.

At this time, interaction options would appear on the wall. Players could use hammers and shovels to dig through the wall.

This way, the sounds coming from the wall would be clearer. Sometimes it would be a crosstalk, sometimes a skit, sometimes a song.

It made people want to know more about it when the film and television dramas were broadcasted there.

Thus, they kept digging just like that. Finally, everything collapsed in an instant, and this stage of the game ended when they were about to dig through.

It changed to another mode when he reached Fei Huang Workspace.

The player's perspective became a camera lens, and the main content was to adjust the focal length and take photos.

There were all kinds of characters in the camera. Men, women, old, and young. Some were handsome, and some looked honest. The narrator would remind you to take photos of the person that best matched the criterias.

Gradually, however, more and more people arrived, making it hard to keep up. There were also some handsome men and beautiful women among them. The narrator would remind you to take more photos of these handsome men and beautiful women, and the points added after taking photos were indeed more.

The player would continue taking photos just like that… Finally, there were fewer and fewer people in the camera, leaving behind all kinds of handsome men and beautiful women. It was as if they could earn a large number of points just by taking a few photos.

In the end, when the points were obtained, this stage of the game was completed.

The gameplay changed again for Sloth Apartments, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Deposit Fitness, and other branches.

In the beginning, players only needed to drag the lever and press a button somewhere in the city to open a branch here.

However, a completely irrelevant message would suddenly appear on the left side of the screen in the form of a bubble vision as he kept repeating this boring operation.

For example, the tenants of the Sloth Apartment reported that the room structure was unreasonable, and the players in the Fish-Catching Internet Cafe reported that a certain game was missing from the computer…

At this moment, four different options would appear, corresponding to four different ways of handling it. The default option was to let his subordinates handle it.

In the beginning, Qiao Liang had chosen seriously. However, this would greatly affect the operation of his right hand moving the joystick to open a branch. His efficiency would obviously slow down.

The goal of clearing this level was to open enough branches and form enough influence in the country.

If the branch opened slowly, other competitors would quickly seize the market, causing the market share to decrease instead of increase.

As for the four options that appeared in his left field of vision, they did not seem to have any effect at all no matter how he chose.

Thus, Qiao Liang naturally paid less and less attention to these options. The faster he chose, the smaller the bubble's vision would be.

In the end, he simply clicked on the option of 'let his subordinates handle it' for all the choices he had to make. At the same time, his right hand operated a machine and opened branches all over the country.

He cleared this segment too.

...

Finally, Qiao Liang arrived at the top floor of Tengda's headquarters as he wished after clearing everything.

This was the core position of the entire Tengda Corporation. There was the office of Boss Pei and a few Vice Presidents, as well as a large conference room that would determine Tengda's fate.

However, it was empty.

He could control the character to place the flowers in his hand in a vase on the table after connecting the tablet computer to the computer in the CEO's office.

This white flower seemed to be paying tribute to the destruction of the once prosperous Tengda Corporation.

A line of words appeared on the computer screen in the CEO's office.

[Would you still make the same choices if you could do it all over again?]

The game ended at that moment. All kinds of art materials of the Tengda Corporation appeared on the screen, as well as the memories of the time when it was at its peak.

The players could naturally enter the second cycle and experience it all over again.
