The chance encounter was meant to attract the streamer's attention.
As for concealing the fact that he 'improperly' showed the original artwork to the streamer without Wu Wei's knowledge, that was to pique their curiosity and interest.
Otherwise, showing the original artwork without the consent of Wu Wei, the sponsor, would technically be a violation of regulations.
Shen Yunshi, after all, was an experienced artist.
She was very careful in this regard.
As for Wu Wei being exposed as the "Old Thief" later and spontaneously gifting two hundred collaborative keyboards, Shen Yunshi was even more impressed.
Not only was his game design outstanding, but his adaptability and marketing strategy were far beyond ordinary people!
If this had happened to an average student, they would have clashed with Xiang Tianming from the very beginning.
If that were the case, they would have been kicked out long ago.
The streamer's comeback story would likely have been impossible.
"Now, things have temporarily come to a close,"
Old Zhang stood up with ease and stretched his neck.
"We were worried sick before..."
"It's not over yet."
Before he could finish speaking, Wu Wei took a sip of water and said.
"Huh?"
Old Zhang and Shen Yunshi were stunned simultaneously.
"What's not over?"
Wu Wei slowly screwed the cap back on his bottle and smiled slightly, gesturing towards the Music Master's booth next door.
"Have you heard of a fish flipping over?"
As he spoke, Wu Wei turned his head, his gaze chilling as he looked at Xiang Tianming's sparse booth.
Old Zhang smiled knowingly.
"I have to correct you on that."
"It should be called, 'A true gentleman never forgets a grudge'."
.
"What are you planning to do?"
Old Zhang asked Wu Wei.
"It's simple,"
Wu Wei shrugged.
"He's willing to find people, and others are willing to owe him favors, so let's have those favors return to him."
Wu Wei did not choose to confront Xiang Tianming directly.
In fact, Wu Wei had already completely broken Xiang Tianming's hold and had even completely overshadowed him.
He could have found an opportunity to drag Xiang Tianming out and break his ribs.
But that would have been too boring.
Wu Wei was not a malicious person.
However, that didn't mean he could be easily provoked.
Sometimes, seeking revenge for the slightest offense wasn't a derogatory term.
Wu Wei was precisely that kind of person.
If you don't provoke me, we'll get along peacefully.
If I win, I won't deliberately show off.
If I lose, I'll admit defeat because I'm not as skilled.
But if you use underhanded tactics against me, then I'm sorry, don't blame me for using some less-than-human methods.
Wu Wei's words left Old Zhang somewhat confused.
"I don't understand what you mean."
"You'll understand what I mean very soon."
Wu Wei took out his tablet, opened the Zhiyou page, and clicked into the special column for this year's college Game Expo.
Their page still hadn't been fixed.
Wu Wei sneered, opened the screen recording, and fiddled with it a few times.
After recording, he opened the 'Zhiyou Forum' and posted a thread using an alt account.
[Excuse me everyone, why can't I find the game "Dance of Ice and Fire"? Didn't they say there were a total of 100 games at this Game Expo? I counted twice and it's still 99?]
Soon, replies started coming in:
'Same here, I just finished watching the boss's stream and wanted to find the game but couldn't.'
'Me too, so is "Dance of Ice and Fire" not one of the participating games in the Game Expo?'
'What a joke, the streamers were all playing it at the Game Expo, how could it not be a participating game?'
'The key is why they said there would be a hundred games, and then kicked out "Dance of Ice and Fire"?'
'This page has a problem, when you get to the last page, swipe forward one more page and wait a bit, it'll be there.'
'...'
'Holy crap, it's really there! Thanks, big shot!'
'Big shot is awesome!'
'What kind of crappy design is this?'
'Why is "Dance of Ice and Fire" put on such a page?'
'Is it a page bug?'
'I do web programming, don't kid me man, there's no bug like that. I think it's highly likely that Wu Wei, that old fox, is being targeted.'
'I think so too. Otherwise, why would a game like this be placed in the most useless spot in the venue?'
'Isn't this a bit too much? Aren't they competing fairly?'
'Who knows.'
'There are only two rhythm games in this venue, one is that "Music Master" thing, and the other is Platinum's "Dance of Ice and Fire". Brothers, it's all been said, those who understand will understand.'
'Holy crap! This is a bit too much!'
'So that rhythm game at the entrance...'
The post stopped abruptly here.
Refreshing again, the post had already been deleted.
Wu Wei chuckled, changed to another alt account, and posted a similar question.
After receiving over a dozen replies in a short period, it was deleted again.
Posted again.
Deleted again.
Posted again.
Deleted again.
After four or five times like this, Old Zhang, who was beside him, couldn't understand.
"Old Wu? Why are you arguing with them? The people from Zhiyou are clearly deliberately deleting posts and not allowing discussion about this matter!"
"Mm, yes."
Wu Wei looked up at Old Zhang:
"I know."
"If you know, why are you still doing this useless work..."
"If I don't do this, how will everyone know they're doing it on purpose, and not just a page bug?"
Wu Wei's lips curved into a playful smile:
"If I don't do this, how can I stir up the resentment of other players on the forum?"
