Chapter 179 Cooperation
A project promoted by Arcadia Co., Ltd. Glory of the past.
Jaeyoung and Jaekyun are participating in this project to recreate the IP of a popular computer game in the past in virtual reality. Jaeyoung was personally experiencing the first result created by Jaekyun and the entire design team.
[Nexus destroyed. Blue team wins!]
[The game ends.]
Those who formed a team of 5 and finished one game and came out of the capsule. In an awkward atmosphere where no one spoke as if everyone had complicated thoughts, Jaeyoung first talked about his honest playing experience.
“Hmm... It’s worse than I thought, isn’t it?”
Jae-Young gave his impressions as he felt without paying any attention. Seeing him like that, those who participated in the play began to talk about their honest thoughts one by one.
“Isn’t it?”
“Am I the only one who thought so?”
“That's right..... The action is gorgeous and the graphics are fantastic...”
“It's a comparison, but there is Arcadia, but it's too hard to play this game...”
Everyone who has a virtual reality connector has Arcadia Users with experience playing . Therefore, their expressions became serious as they knew that simply bringing back nostalgia for old popular games would only evoke a brief repercussion and would not secure a fixed user base.
“First of all, I think the big problem is that the skills and all motions that can be used in a combat situation are fixed. Unlike Arcadia, where you can move freely and actively and create various situations, it feels like you are using a doll rather than your own body....? Anyway, I think the fun of control is halved a lot.”
“that's right. It's not only that the sense of control and the taste of battle are degraded, but the method of strengthening through items only increases stats, right? How can I say it..... As the game progresses, it seems that it becomes a battle of shame rather than individual player abilities...” ”
Hmm... It seems to be a problem that comes from bringing computer games as they are. It just feels like a very good old game with just the graphics, and I don't think I'll be able to get my hands on it.”
A problem that occurred because the computer game was brought in as it is.
With the help of Jaekyun, the graphics themselves were implemented into a world full of realism, but the systemic parts in it were not touched at all, so when I actually played it, there were not one or two problems. And it was Yang Min-hyeok, manager of the design & development team who led the project, who was taken aback by the staff's harsh criticism.
“Isn’t that fun?”
“Rather than saying it’s not fun... Um... why do you have Arcadia? It feels like this...”
“Isn’t that not fun?”
“.....”
Unable to say that it is not fun, the employees are silent and looking at each other. Looking at their attitude, manager Yang Min-hyeok muttered with a dejected expression on his face.
“Haha..... It's ruined now..... I asked the boss to leave it to me with so much excitement...”
Manager Yang Min-hyeok confidently announced this project at the general meeting and confidently received permission. Considering the schedule of the Game Festa, which is less than a month away, it was almost impossible to completely replace the game's system, so he had to choose one.
Go to the president and other executives and ask them to postpone the deadline for the project.
Or, as it is now, open it to Game Festa and pray that the public's evaluation will be good.
“Hey Jaekyung. Still, the skill implementation was very tasty. Did you do your research hard?”
“Hehe... I checked each champion's skill effect one by one at home.”
“Somehow... it seemed like they put a lot of effort into it.”
“Thank you for noticing.”
Whether or not Yang Min-hyeok knows that Manager Yang's stomach is burning. The two were chatting in a friendly atmosphere. And behind them, there was one who suddenly appeared.
“Oh my God, why are the departments here so huddled together?”
“Sa boss!”
“omg! Oh hello!”
President Lee Mi-yeon, who shows her face with a kind, bright smile.
Upon seeing her, Manager Yang Min-hyeok, with a white face as if he had seen a ghost, ran out and all the staff bowed at 90 degrees and looked at each other. Jaeyoung and Jaegyun were also swept away by the atmosphere, got up from their seats, and looked at their eyes.
“We were just demoing a game we were developing and discussing feedback on it.”
“Ah, you mean the project you talked about last time? how is it? Is everything going smoothly?”
President Lee Mi-yeon asked a question with a smile. At that moment, in that fleeting moment that feels like an eternity to manager Yang Min-hyeok, he chose one of the two options and closed his eyes tightly.
“That's right! The entire department is doing their best to meet the project deadline by working overtime!”
for your own eternity. And for the sake of the team members who believed in him and followed him, Manager Yang Min-hyuk had to make this project unconditional. Therefore, he shouted with determination to make the most of the remaining time to fix the problems. And at his answer, Lee Mi-yeon nodded with a satisfied smile.
“It’s nice to see. I like the content of the project, and seeing all of you full of passion, I look forward to seeing how the public will react to the game called League of Legends in virtual reality. Anyway... I'm watching with interest, so make sure you finish well until the end.”
“yes! All right!”
“By the way... can I borrow this friend for a while?”
“yes....? Are you talking about student Jaeyoung?”
“...can’t you?”
“Oh no! It's possible! Don’t be!”
President Lee Mi-yeon suddenly looks at Jae-young and wants to take her with him for a while. Everyone froze for a moment at the completely unexpected question.
“What happened...”
“Oh, it's nothing special. I have a few questions about Seomin University.”
Seomin University was the first among universities to conclude industry-university cooperation. No one seemed to doubt Lee Mi-yeon's statement that she had something to ask Jae-young, who was studying there, but Jae-young hesitated and followed her.
“Would you like something to drink? coffee? green tea? Or juice?”
Jae-young follows her into her office. He blurted out when President Lee Mi-yeon asked for something to drink.
“Coffee.....”
“I’m sitting and relaxing. It will burn soon.”
President Lee Mi-yeon pours water into the coffee maker placed on one side and makes coffee while humming. Jaeyoung, who looked at her and looked around, was just awkward at the current situation, which didn't suit her at all.
“sleep.”
“...The coffee is also brewed by the owner himself. Don’t you have a separate secretary?”
“Oh, of course there is a secretary. But today is a special situation, so I told you not to go to work. I told all the executives who frequented my office, including this floor, not to come out.”
“....why?”
“That’s because no one should see the two of us meeting Jaeyoung student... No, Dex customer.”
“...Did you know?”
Instead of being surprised, as if his ominous intuition was right, Jae-young answers more calmly than ever. In response to his reply, CEO Lee Mi-yeon smiled lightly and nodded her head.
“Sure. I'm the president, but I don't know the user information?”
“The other employees didn’t know at all, so I thought no one knew.”
“Hoho, that’s of course. How many employees want to permanently suspend Dex's account? I don’t know, but if Jaeyoung knew that he was Dex, he probably wouldn’t be able to walk out of this company on his own two feet.”
“...Have you had a lot of accidents?”
“It's not even comparable to when I received the bamboo spear as a reward the other day.”
“It does.”
As if it was fun, Jaeyoung smiled and said without knowing. President Lee Mi-yeon looked at him with strange eyes and then muttered to herself.
“Anyway, it's all the same fun...”
“Yes?”
“it's nothing. Rather... How does it feel to become the richest person in Arcadia history?”
“...Actually, I don’t know.”
Goods that exist in virtual data. Of course, in reality, its value is recognized by the public, but the amount of gold acquired was so enormous that it was beyond imagination, so Jae-young did not touch reality well with honest feelings.
“Hmm... First of all, to be honest, I won't make any adjustments to the compensation. The rewards obtained this time were created due to the fault of the company, although there is a slight difference of opinion as to whether the reward that should have been originally given when the dragon was caught is correct and the method of catching the dragon is completely justified.”
President Lee Mi-yeon, who did not expect that he would do such an amazing job with a bamboo spear. As for her, she had no choice but to acknowledge Jaeyoung's ability.
“To be honest... after looking closely at the process, I have no choice but to admit it. To be honest, the job of being a wanderer in turbulent times is not all-round, and the penalties are horrendous, but the process of overcoming all of them feels amazing even when I see it.”
A wandering song in the hidden class turmoil.
It is true that it is a job with infinite possibilities, to the extent that the word “fraud” comes out aloud if probability is guaranteed. However, instead, the level does not exist, so the existing abilities are horrendously low. So, if you don't have a certain level of probability, you become a character who can't do anything.
However, the student in front of me achieved the current feat by digging through loopholes in the game and system at a phenomenal level from such a precarious tightrope. His talent is too overwhelming to be called just a job. So CEO Lee Mi-yeon looked at Jae-young and asked.
“The Sajok is getting too long. First of all, the reason I called Jaeyoung right now is because I have a favor to ask of you.”
“...a request?”
A request from the president of Arcadia. Jaeyoung gave her an uneasy look at her words, which were full of suspicious feelings.
“It's not too difficult. It's just that if I'm going to do something big sometimes in the game, I'll give me a word in advance, or if I'm earnestly asking for something, I'll restrain myself a little... or something like that.”
“You mean... you mean you're going to intervene in my play within Arcadia?”
To put it simply, she said to do it in moderation. Jaeyoung's expression became serious because it was the words of the president in charge of Arcadia, not someone else. Then CEO Lee Mi-yeon hurriedly waved her hand as if not to misunderstand.
“I'm not threatening you, so don't misunderstand. It's just... I want to do business with Jaeyoung.”
“A deal?”
“Hmm... How should I say... You know that student Jaeyoung’s influence within Arcadia is stronger and greater than any other user, right?”
nod
It's hard to admit to yourself, but it's true. In particular, there was no doubt that it was a situation where he could not dare to compare with other users even more now, when he had obtained great wealth and probability.
“It seems clear that it will continue to maintain its strong influence in the game... As the person in charge of this company, it is necessary to adjust the level of these huge events to some extent.”
“Well... that's understandable.”
“If you accept the deal with me...”
President Lee Mi-yeon said in a sweet voice, looking at Jae-young with sparkling eyes.
“I will try to be a strong support for student Jaeyoung in real life.”
The strongest user of virtual reality and the president of a real giant company.
The secret (?) cooperative relationship between the two of this strange combination was established that day.
