Chapter 175
Chapter 175 Irreversible Aftermath (1)
Dragon, the official strongest in the world of Arcadia.
It is also an old dragon-class dragon that has accumulated near-infinite mana for a long time spanning thousands of years.
Such a splendid appearance of Kervenian was enough to instill the power of dragons in everyone's mind.
-You use the 8th circle magic so freely? how do you catch that
-Wow, there are so many magics I've never seen before, but they look really powerful. so cool
-Ha..... I also want to use those magics to my heart's content.
A Cervenian who unceasingly pours powerful destructive magic that even a high-ranking archmage would barely use once and run out of mana. In the city being swept away by his mighty firepower and destructive power, people watched the battle with a mixture of fear and awe.
However, even with such powerful power and infinite magical power, he met a very empty end. Everyone was at a loss for words when they saw the Kervenian's massive body, literally approaching a small mountain, slam into the ground and fade to a gray light.
-??? What?
- Is it a bug?
- What's the situation now? Why do you suddenly die?
Not only Korean users, but also users from all over the world flocked to watch the show. That's why the majority of people lost their words in this embarrassing situation and raised question marks. And the Korean language pouring out among them.
- Dex! Dex! Dex! Dex! Dex!
- Dex did it!!!!
-Wow..... Really great. Do you eat the best in every game you play?
- Hey hey! I believed you!!! shit!!!!!!!
-Black color!!!! I tore my panties and cried out!!!!
Deck fan dance spread all over Korea. They sincerely rejoiced and celebrated as if this dragon hunt had become their own, but there were too many people who expressed discomfort as if they didn't like the situation.
-No, you can do this with a bamboo spear?
-Oh my god, isn't this a real level of balance collapse, not ruin?
-It's really over the line. What kind of mind is the game company that makes this possible with event items?
-Isn't this honestly cheating play? I don't think it's even made to catch something.
Even if you try to understand and move on to some extent, this is an Eva tuna situation that even the Buddha will admit. That's why the number of people who complained about this unfair situation and expressed their dissatisfaction began to increase rapidly.
- I have to file a complaint. Where is this biased operation?
-Isn't Dex the hidden child of the president of this game company or something like that?
-I heard the boss is in his 30s?
-I don't know. It must be a nephew, then.
-lol. is this a game?
- No matter how much I try to understand, this is impossible in common sense. Clearly using inside information.
-I go straight to the game company. good luck.
Humans' natural jealousy and envy toward a user who achieves a great feat that he himself could not achieve. And the arrow of anger rising as a result so naturally headed for the game company, the operator of this game.
[hey. After watching the broadcast earlier, I couldn't understand it no matter how much I thought about it, so I called...] [
Are you going to run the game later?]
[No, common sense doesn't make sense. What kind of dragon did you hit?]
[Why did you hold an event like that? Ask the person in charge to come out.]
[Tell me honestly. That user game company employee, right? A ranker created to promote the game, right?]
The customer satisfaction service team struggles to come to their senses amidst the bombardment of complaint calls. In addition, while responding to this situation by attaching a department crisis management response team that only exists in the Korean branch, Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han muttered to Director Kang Tae-hoon with a somewhat bewildered face.
“Director Kang Tae-hoon.”
“Yes, manager.”
“What do you predict the outcome of this event will be?”
“yes....? What do you mean by that?”
Director Kang Tae-Hoon is making a puzzled expression as if he did not understand the intention of the question. After looking at him with a meaningful face, Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han said in passing that it was nothing.
“Don’t you know? What changes will happen to Arcadia in the future?”
“Ah, if that’s the case...”
A fact known only to a very small number of people through President Lee Mi-yeon. A huge project being prepared for Arcadia, which will transform into a completely different world from the past, being prepared secretly so that only Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon and Director Tae-Hoon Kang know about Arcadia's Korean branch.
Massive update Pangea.
Realizing that Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon was asking what would happen with this update, General Manager Kang Tae-Hoon thought about something with a serious face. And soon, he started talking about the future direction he was thinking about.
“I expect there will be a lot of confusion in the beginning. It hasn't been long since the fact that other continents exist has been known, but those huge continents are merging into one... To be honest, there won't be many users who will calmly accept this crazy thing.”
It's something game companies would never do unless they were hit in the head with a few shotguns. It was a crazy situation to the extent that it was okay to shout ‘our boss was shot in the head'.
“Doesn’t the managing director agree? Given the current circumstances, that update is far too premature. From the management's point of view, it is an update that can only be pushed forward after users have explored most of the continent of Arcadia and exhausted the huge scenarios we planted, while sticking to the current situation and worrying about as much content as possible.”
Only less than 10% of the regions and quests for each continent have been revealed yet. A state that is still full of things to explore and adventure. It was General Manager Kang Tae-hoon who did not understand why he dared to do such an irrational thing in a situation where the interest and popularity of users were at their peak. And at his words, Executive Director Kwon Myung-han sighed deeply and muttered with an indescribably complex expression.
“Huh... what should I do? It's a situation that's happening by the user. We must follow what we have decided above.”
Managing Director Myung-Han Kwon fully agrees with the fact that it cuts off the lifespan of the game by at least 10 years. However, I had no choice but to succumb to the actions of crazy President Lee Mi-yeon, who smiled and said, ‘If you have any complaints, please resign,' even when all the branch heads around the world shouted the opposite, as if they were not interested in such profitable aspects at all.
“Anyway, it’s a really unique company... I thought I was holding on to this industry until now, but this is the first time I’ve seen a company that binds administrators’ rights and returns to the convenience of users.”
Stories created by users.
It is a slogan that is put out in order to highlight the degree of freedom of the game in every RPG game. However, unlike other games where only the ideal is over and the users are nabbed and run their own way due to realistic situations and adults' circumstances, this game used to create so many situations in which employees' bloody tears flowed.
“yes....? Abandon all scenarios...? You don't need it anymore...?”
“Chief T, that’s the content we made while staying up all night for two months...!”
“Suddenly working overtime...? No, what kind of emergency is this...?”
“Uh..... Honey... I'm sorry.”
Suddenly, the slime goes crazy and works overtime.
Overtime, saying that the peaceful ducal territory was blown away by the undead attack.
Overtime, saying that the Holy Empire is going crazy.
overtime overtime overtime.
Employees who are put into overtime every day for all sorts of reasons. In addition, the customers who were caught up in all sorts of incidents and were damaged and made angry calls were a bonus.
At this point, it was worth punishing the user who caused a disturbance by causing enormous damage to the game by swinging the mace of the permanent ban of anger, but due to the meticulous privacy policy that thoroughly prevented even the game information from being viewed, let alone the user's personal information, It was impossible. And, at one time, managing director Kwon Myung-han was suspicious of President Lee Mi-yeon, who put these policies at the forefront and only watched the game being thoroughly disturbed on the part of non-employees, but users.
It is said that he is a pervert who feels joy when he sees his employees suffering.
However, in this situation, with his sincere and earnest words, executive director Myung-han Kwon was able to get a glimpse of President Lee Mi-yeon's intentions.
[Hmm..... I'm honestly aware of the concerns the branch managers have about this incident. It is true that I fully sympathize with the reason.]
[Then, why are you trying to force yourself on this matter? If you are the boss, you can intervene in this matter...]
CEO Lee Mi-yeon, who says she doesn't agree with this situation, but doesn't do anything. She said with a puzzled expression for the first time at Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han's question.
[That's it..... Actually, I can't do anything either.]
[Yeah...?]
An irresponsible statement that even she, who is in the position of president in charge of everything in Arcadia, can't do anything about it. The managing director, who had recommended her remarks, asked back with an expression as if he had been hit in the head with a hammer.
[As you know, I am running this company as the president...but do you know who the true owner is who owns most of the shares in this company?]
Arcadia Co., Ltd.
A cash cow that makes billions of dollars in cash every month, and the only virtual reality service company that generates huge side profits. Therefore, all investors drool and offered huge investments and demanded shares, but at present, 99% of the shares were monopolized by the three companies.
Ajin Electronics.
Silico The Bio Industries.
Corporation Argos.
Except for these three companies, CEO Lee Mi-yeon owns the remaining 1%. She smiled so brightly and asked Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han.
[No matter how much I am the president, I cannot ignore the opinions of the major shareholders who have voting rights, right? What should I do if I run the company on my own and get fired because of a general meeting of shareholders?]
[.....]
With those words, President Lee Mi-yeon gets up from her seat. The last word she said before leaving the room was an honest confession from a petit bourgeois filled with the joys and sorrows of a salaryman to the extent that even managing director Kwon Myung-han felt the same.
[Isn't this all about making a living?]
Of course, the petit bourgeois who said it was about making a living was the one who had stakes estimated to be worth trillions of won.
“Dex... I don't know why that user did this, but the competition and confrontation between users in the future will be incomparably harsher and more extreme than before.”
Executive Director Myung-Han Kwon, who was lost in thought while briefly recalling the past, looked up at General Manager Kang Tae-Hoon's words and looked at him.
“I see... If you run into users of different nationalities, not players of the same nationality, it will be a completely different realm than before.”
A situation where various conflicts can arise due to other factors such as nationality, ideology, religion, and race beyond simple game competition. Probably, if the integration between continents took place, it was obvious that various disputes and incidents would occur frequently both inside and outside the game.
“Besides.... Judging from the unusual reaction of Japanese users, I think there will probably be a lot of conflict with Korean users. It seems that it is a situation that we can not avoid even in terms of business.”
“...that's probably it.”
The Japanese branch is really frenzied over this incident, and especially after Kazuki, the branch manager, made a fuss over the phone, screaming that he would fly to Korea right away, the executive director who recommended Kang Tae-hoon at the end of the day looked like he was 10 years older. was just mumbling.
“Yes customer. I'm really sorry for causing you concern. Regarding the bamboo spear...”
“Thank you for your valuable opinion. Be sure to pass it on to the relevant ministries so that they can review the opinion.....”
“Stop being rude...? If the customer repeats such aggressive words and actions, the consultation will be forcibly terminated...”
“Yes. sorry. sorry. I'm really sorry.”
Employees cringing at their phones, dealing with disgruntled customers. Looking at them for a long time with a complex expression full of pity, Executive Director Kwon Myeong-han thought.
Anyway, this game is like X.
