Chapter 13: Lu Sheng
After returning home in the evening, he went to his sister’s house for dinner, watched TV with her for a while, and then Lu Li went back to his room, turned on the computer, and logged into the “Valve Platform”. As soon as he logged into the platform, more than a thousand unread messages popped up, which scared Lu Li. Clicking in, he found that his game page had more than 900 negative reviews, and the game evaluation became “a flood of negative reviews”.
Not only that, in the weekly negative review promotion list, his game “ranked” fourth. This is not right.
More than 900 negative reviews were all clichés, all blaming the bad plot, poor optimization, and ugly art. Most of the people who posted comments were new accounts of level one or two. I think it must be Chen Jianing who is behind this. She can do such a tasteless thing as hiring water army. It is estimated that Lu Li made her very angry last time, and this time she is deliberately taking revenge.
However, thanks to Chen Jianing’s negative marketing, many passers-by clicked in from the negative review list and left fair comments:
“It’s not that bad? Who did the production team offend to get so many negative reviews?”
“The atmosphere is great! Keep an eye on it!”
“Why is it a DEMO again? Will it be crowdfunded again?”
Well done, Xiao Chen. Lu Li secretly gave a thumbs up. What independent games lack most is exposure. Many independent games often have more than enough reputation but less exposure. Lu Li’s game has an excellent foundation, and the number of downloads in the first week was less than 50. After Chen Jianing’s commotion, the number of downloads soared to more than 2,000. Most players will not leave comments. They will judge the quality of the game by themselves, which cannot be shaken by some water army.
Lu Li saw in the background that the praise rate was still rising slowly. If it maintained this momentum, it would be able to return to the “mixed” evaluation in the second half of this month.
He happily opened Chen Jianing’s private message, unblocked her, and sent a message: “Thank you, Boss Chen!”
Chen Jianing quickly replied: “???”
Lu Li had no ill will towards Chen Jianing, so he readily sent a screenshot of the background: “Thanks to you, the traffic has increased a lot.”
“Are you sick? Are you still happy when the praise rate dropped so much?” Chen Jianing was puzzled.
Lu Li shook his head in front of the screen. Chen Jianing was still too immature. In the Internet age, traffic is king. What’s the use of a high praise rate without a market? He hesitated for a moment, but still sent his own views. Chen Jianing should understand some truths earlier, suffer less losses in the future, and save her from going crazy on the Internet every day in the future.
“Oh.” She simply replied with one word. Ordinary people might think that she doesn’t care or respect him, but Lu Li understands that Chen Jianing is actually a very awkward girl. She is introverted, socially anxious, and has a mild tendency to self-abuse. Self-abuse does not refer to physical self-abuse, but psychological self-abuse. She likes but doesn’t say it, affirms but refutes, and values but rejects. Her honest reply of “Oh” actually means that she actually agrees with what Lu Li said, but she deliberately shows that she doesn’t care.
It’s very hard to live with such a girl for a lifetime. No wonder Chen Jianing never found a partner or got married in her previous life. Lu Li sighed.
“If you apologize to me and say that I didn’t plagiarize, I will forgive you and delete the bad review.” Chen Jianing suddenly sent a message. This means that she is planning to reconcile, but she is too proud to ask Lu Li to apologize to her and give herself a step to land safely. Lu Li didn’t want to spoil her, so he typed a line of words: “I won’t.”
“Hmph, you wait for me.”
Some girls are easy to please, and you will only make her gentler if you are humble and obedient to her. Chu Jingyi is one of them. If you listen to her in everything, she will come to understand you. Some girls are hard to please, and if you really obey her, it will only lead to worse results. Chen Jianing is one of them.
