I! Game Designer! Ultimate Tormentor

Hearing this, Xiang Tianming was a little confused.

"What do you mean by adding ten thousand? Adding what?"

"Adding money, of course. What else? Heh,"

Pang Wen shook his head and sneered:

"It's fine to tell you the truth. Do you know Platinum Studio? The one you're trying to get involved with, Wu Wei."

"He offered me forty thousand to expose your favoritism and impersonation."

"I'm considering our usual working relationship, so I'm not asking for much, just an extra ten thousand yuan. It's not that expensive..."

Pang Wen rambled on, a smug look on his face.

However, Xiang Dahai couldn't hear the rest of his words.

His mind was buzzing!

So it was all Wu Wei's revenge!

That's right!

Wu Wei was the one who instigated Pang Wen!

Internal strife was always the most entertaining.

If he could, Wu Wei would never choose to confront enemies head-on.

Killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own was always the worst option.

After igniting the players' anger, Wu Wei knew that Zhiyou would definitely not let Xiang Dahai off the hook.

The external threat was now in place.

Next, it was time for the internal strife.

Wu Wei was a master of torment.

After some investigation, Wu Wei effortlessly found Xiang Dahai's project teams.

Then, he chose Pang Wen, who had the worst reputation in the game design circle.

This scoundrel was a two-faced traitor.

He had a record of jumping between three game companies in a single year.

According to rumors, the reason he could move around like this and still be hired by game companies was that he would poach core members from his previous companies every time he switched jobs.

People like him were the easiest to handle.

So, Wu Wei contacted Pang Wen immediately.

The first thing he said upon meeting him was, 'Xiang Tianming's game, you still have the source code, right?'

Without a shred of evidence, Wu Wei's confident tone and terrifyingly sharp intuition about games had genuinely startled Pang Wen.

Then, without wasting any time, Wu Wei explained the current situation to Pang Wen, letting him assess Mingye Game's predicament himself, and then presented his offer.

Forty thousand!

To buy the source code evidence and expose Xiang Dahai!

Wu Wei bet that even if Xiang Tianming had the development materials, he definitely wouldn't have the game's source code files.

After all, as the very foundation of the entire game, no game designer would easily hand over the source code.

Especially not for an ordinary game company like Mingye, and not to someone like Pang Wen.

One was an ordinary game company without the ability to create a god.

The other was a two-faced designer who had changed jobs countless times.

Pang Wen naturally wouldn't hand over something as crucial as the source code.

Because if the game became a huge hit, as long as he had the source code files, Mingye couldn't abandon him.

The game would need him for updates, as it couldn't function without the source code.

In essence, the source code was the designer, and the designer was the source code.

A two-faced traitor like Pang Wen, could he have managed to jump jobs so many times without some leverage of his own?

As expected!

Wu Wei's guess was spot on.

Pang Wen weighed the pros and cons, knowing that Mingye Game was now like a lone boat adrift.

With a behemoth like Zhiyou pursuing them, even if Mingye wasn't destroyed, it would likely only be able to struggle to survive.

He couldn't stay here.

It was better to accept Wu Wei's offer, make some money, and run.

But!

He thought about it again.

On one side was Platinum Studio, wanting revenge and to bite back. On the other was Xiang Dahai, who had something on him.

Since he wanted to make money and run, why not squeeze both of them?

So, the sly Pang Wen found Xiang Dahai, intending to negotiate a higher price.

Pang Wen walked out of Xiang Dahai's office, beaming!

Fifty thousand in hand!

Xiang Dahai, forced by the circumstances, had to swallow his pride to prevent the matter from being exposed!

After all, if this incident were truly revealed.

Not only would Xiang Dahai be ostracized by everyone in the gaming circle.

Even his son, Xiang Tianming, would be rejected by game companies.

You have to understand, all game companies detest impersonation the most!

If this blew up, neither he nor his son would have a place in the gaming industry!

On the way, Pang Wen hummed a tune and called Wu Wei.

"Hello, Boss Wu, I have something to tell you."

Pang Wen had received a price from one side and wanted to raise it further.

After all, human greed is boundless.

But before he could speak, he heard Wu Wei on the other end say:

"I'll add twenty thousand, making it sixty thousand in total. Combined with what you extorted from Xiang Dahai, that's enough to cover your expenses for this trip."

"This matter ends here."

Pang Wen jolted!

Wu Wei was too smart!

He had seen right through his actions with a single sentence!

Clearly, Wu Wei had anticipated his plan to use his price to extort Xiang Dahai!

For a moment, Pang Wen even felt a sense of disorientation!

Could such cunning, bordering on supernatural, truly be possessed by a new game designer who hadn't even graduated from college?

"Wu... Boss Wu, I didn't..."

"You know perfectly well whether you did or not."

Wu Wei didn't argue with him; there was no need. He just said earnestly:

"Pang Wen, people should know when to be content. Do you understand what I mean?"

"By 8 PM tonight, I want to see proof of the source code, and for this matter to be settled."

"Otherwise, I can make Zhiyou's stock plummet, and I can make yours plummet too."

"Goodbye."

Click.

The call ended.
