Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

fraid that he would change his mind and let him watch it again.

In the end, Boss Pei casually made a small suggestion: considering that most of GOG’s gamers had registered with IOI accounts before, it seemed inappropriate for only new accounts to enjoy the benefits of the event.
It should be expanded to all accounts.

This suggestion led to IOI gamers using loopholes to register GOG accounts and farm rewards!

What’s more, this event accurately locked onto IOI’s diehard fans, who had never played GOG before.

That was because gamers who had already played GOG had accounts.
If they wanted to register a new account, they had to tie up a new cell phone number.
It was relatively cumbersome.

On the other hand, it was relatively convenient for gamers who had not played GOG to register.

Thus, the group of IOI players with the strongest will also try to register GOG’s account and play the game.
It could be said that a small crack had appeared on the solid dam.

The effect did not seem obvious, but the impact was very far-reaching and very targeted!

But then again, if he had not accepted this suggestion back then, it would have had a very serious impact.

Many gamers in GOG had played IOI before and registered for IOI accounts.
If they did not follow Boss Pei’s advice and could only get rewards if they were new accounts, they could indeed prevent IOI gamers from doing this.
However, the problem was that that would create huge difficulties for the traffic!

GOG players had wanted to participate in the event, but they realized that they could not use the old IOI account.
They had to register a new account and create a new cell phone number…

Many players must have been so angry that they did not want the reward and could not be bothered to spend so much effort.

That way, the effect of the event would be greatly reduced.

Something was wrong!

Of course, if he could predict these two problems in advance, there would still be solutions.
For example, he could create a specific program.
He could assess the state of each account based on the length of the game and the recent online time.
He could also adopt different measures against different accounts.

However, that would be too much work.
It would be impossible to be released during the holidays.

What’s more, everyone had been a little muddle-headed in order to catch up.
They had not thought so deeply and seriously about this matter.

That was how this awkward situation happened!

Eric’s attitude was very calm.
He was not furious.

On one hand, it was because the blame was not on him.
He was already a mouthpiece and a tool.
There was nothing to be angry about.
On the other hand, it was because he had a bad premonition and was mentally prepared.

“Let’s think about how to solve this problem,” Eric said.

There was a moment of silence in the conference room, and then everyone began to share their countermeasures.

Someone suggested, “Hurry up and develop a software to test the account and plug this loophole?”

However, this statement immediately attracted opposition.

“Definitely not! Firstly, this would definitely affect players who want to use this rule to profit and cause them to feel disgusted.
Secondly, the working period would not allow it.
After the development test was completed, more than half of the event had passed.”

It might be a loophole but it was a benign loophole that could be used by IOI players.
What’s more, the official announcement did not say that they were not allowed to register new accounts at GOG.

At most, he could only be considered to have exploited a loophole.
It was fundamentally different from cheating and maliciously using bugs.

Even if he apologized and compensated them to eliminate the impact to a certain extent, he would still be scolded.
What’s more, he could not make an accurate estimate of the working period at the moment.
Perhaps the event would be almost over after the update.

Someone else said, “How about… we ask Tengda to cooperate and do a screening…”

Eric immediately shook his head.
“Impossible.
First of all, the contract did not agree on these contents.
Secondly, Tengda never worked overtime.
They did not even make an exception when they were so anxious that they almost sold the building.”

The conference room fell into a temporary silence.
Obviously, when they heard the words’ Tengda never works overtime ‘, they felt an inexplicable sour feeling.

Zhao Xuming thought for a moment and said, “This is really difficult because we will definitely not be able to make any adjustments to the content of the reward.
On one hand, it is because of the existence of the contract.
On the other hand, it is also because we will be scolded by players.”

“The only way is to screen and separate the players.
However, we are back to the initial problem.
There is not enough time for development.”

Eric nodded reluctantly.

That was really the case.
This was a dead end!

It seemed like Boss Pei had blocked every path perfectly.

An unprecedented eight days long holiday was the right time;

The constraints of the agreement were geographical benefits;

Players’ mentality was naturally harmonious.

Initially, he had thought that both sides would compete using 30% of their strength.
However, the results were uncertain.

However, now that IOI’s gamers had gone to GOG to play, GOG was no longer 30%.
Instead, it had become 50%, 70%, or even more!

He could not control it!

Eric thought hard for a long time.
In the end, he was relieved.
“That’s it, then.
Everyone, go home and rest.”

Zhao Xuming was stunned.

Huh? Pretend that nothing happened?

That wouldn’t be good!

Eric continued, “This is not something we can solve.
I will report the relevant situation.
I believe that the higher-ups at the headquarters will definitely give a suitable solution.”

Eric had something to say as well.
I’m just a mouthpiece now.
What do you want a mouthpiece to do?!

Have you ever seen a mouthpiece jump out to save the world?

What’s more, Eric’s problem was not entirely with his attitude.
In the current situation, he really did not have the ability to solve this problem.

That was the situation.
He was stuck.
What could he do?

He could only let nature take its course.
