Chapter 2: Selection

Unexpectedly, the options that were originally dim in front of Chen Tiancai became bright again. Perhaps it was the alcohol that gave him courage, as the usually cautious Chen Tiancai began to feel eager to try.

... ...

Fang Jingtang understands the reasons for the regret, as the situation of Chaoyang Games is already precarious, leaving no room to attend to an intern's proposal.

... ...

On the way back to the company, Fang Jingtang's eyes lit up as he came up with an idea: "Xiao Chen, you have started learning coding, right? If you are not too concerned about high-quality graphics, you could try using pixel art. This way, you can get the hang of it quickly, and within a year, you could produce a prototype."

Fang Jingtang is one of the core technological strengths of Chaoyang. General Zhao dares to make things difficult for others, but he does not dare to challenge him in any way. Therefore, Chen Tiancai is not afraid of General Zhao launching a surprise attack, and since he is already quite hungry, he keeps nodding in agreement

Moreover, who knows whether speaking or other means could be considered a choice? If one were to let slip even a little, the consequences could be unpredictable. Thus, Chen Tiancai remained silent, blinking his eyes as he looked at General Zhao, appearing somewhat pitiful.

Chen Tiancai blinked, feeling that he had indeed been overly cautious, and then he fiercely continued to click on 【Yes】 https://www.hetushu.com.com

Oh! It's almost 8:30, let's go downstairs and get something to eat

Ah! What a pity! Fang Jingtang returned the proposal to Chen Tiancai, letting out a sigh

Code is ultimately an insurmountable hurdle. After today's conversation with two masters, Chen Tiancai is also prepared to embark on the path of strength through coding

Yet his nature still restrained his impulses, and he began to eat and drink with Fang Jingtang, engaging in casual conversation and laughter.

Fang Jingtang touched his smooth forehead and said, "It is very good! Moreover, the technical difficulty is not high, as the scale is relatively small. If it were placed in our group, we could produce a demo in a month and start closed testing within six months."

Chen Tiancai is not a foolish internet user; he possesses a sense of responsibility towards his own ethnicity and himself. He also wishes to find a beloved woman to marry, have a lovely child, and live a life filled with warmth and family.

Chen Tiancai roughly paraphrased Liu Cheng's words and then tentatively asked, "Brother Fang really thinks it's good?"

When Chen Tiancai came to his senses, President Zhao's speech and the presentation had already reached the concluding remarks stage. Perhaps it was because Chen Tiancai had been dazed and did not interject, President Zhao had thoroughly indulged in her speaking. Alternatively, she might have noticed that Chen Tiancai was quite handsome, which led her to adopt a more conciliatory tone in the end, likely intending to provide both parties with a way out.

General Zhao also felt embarrassed, as she had entered Chaoyang through backdoor connections and could only rely on her background to exert influence. She found the looks of this young handsome man quite appealing, but she was unwilling to be fined even a hundred yuan; if that happened, she would lose all her authority and how could she manage others thereafter

As for General Zhao, who was spitting with rage at him, Chen Tiancai could no longer hear her voice; he began to fall into a daze, feeling as though the real world had become severed from him

Fang Jingtang was picking up the planning documents that had fallen on the floor while saying, "Alright, it's just a small matter, punish as necessary! General Manager Zhao, please don't be angry, I will talk to him later!"

The passion of the youth ultimately led Chen Tiancai to make a decision

To be honest, Chen Tiancai must be hesitant. He has an excellent education and appearance, his family conditions are also good, and his parents have already begun to prepare for the new house for him. With some stability, he could certainly lead a prosperous life

The risks are certainly present, as I recall there are self-destruct programs and such. However, the opportunities are undoubtedly greater! Is it worth taking the risk?

Only after Chen Tiancai sat in the snack shop and downed a glass of beer did he realize that he had overreacted a bit earlier, while his left thumb rubbed against the black gold ring

So, are you convinced now? Is it reasonable to deduct 200 yuan from you?

After enjoying a hearty meal and drinks, Fang Jingtang said with a smile, "Your proposal is quite good. Have you shown it to the boss?"

At this moment, the mediator finally arrived to save the situation. This person is named Fang Jingtang, an old subordinate of Liu Cheng. He has a very good temper and taught Chen Tiancai many things during his internship.

Chen Tiancai has designed a single-player game, with the artistic style, musical style, and complete story text all finalized. It can be said that this is a project proposal that can be directly presented to any studio for project initiation.

At 9:30, Chen Tiancai and the interns of the same period finished work together, yet the office of Chaoyang Games remained brightly lit

Chen Tiancai felt very confused, with only those two options swirling in front of him

He also realized that remaining silent was not a solution, so he pondered for a moment with the *illustrated* book and then said with a wry smile:

Where, Brother Fang, you are exaggerating

Chen Tiancai awakened the selection bar, and then resolutely moved towards the option of "Yes"

He has no idea what it will become after the choice is made

However, Chen Tiancai is currently in a very awkward position, with the options of "yes" and "no" still hovering before his eyes

General Zhao hurriedly walked away in her high heels, making a clattering sound, and in the end, it seemed she glanced back at Chen Tiancai, who was still standing there in a daze

Chen Tiancai is a very patient person; otherwise, he would not treat the system options before him as if they were air

At this moment, Chen Tiancai noticed that the options before him began to dim, resembling a mobile phone entering standby mode

What if after choosing 'yes', his bank account increased by one billion, and then the Earth was destroyed five hundred years later

Before entering the subway station, Chen Tiancai looked up at the window of Liu Cheng's office and began to pray that the morning sun could weather this difficult time, if only for the good people Liu Cheng and Old Tang

As they were sitting in the elevator going up, Fang Jingtang finally reminded, "Xiao Chen, you are a talented person, but do not regard technical skills as the sole aspect of game development. Sometimes, that moment of inspiration and the art of storytelling are the true essence of a game. Technology can only determine the lower limit, not the upper limit"

Just get it done

Fang Jingtang saw General Zhao leave, placed the completed proposal on the table, and said: "Xiao Chen, you really startled me! I thought you were going to get into a fight with her!"

Well! You are finally smart, not arguing with her. Fang Jingtang nodded and, out of curiosity, began to browse through Chen Tiancai's proposal. After a while, she looked at the time and said:

Chen Tiancai returned home, greeted his parents who were still watching television, and then went to wash up. It was only after lying in bed that he began to continue contemplating the question of whether it was a "yes" or a "no".

I am not being cautious; being overly cautious is just cowardice

The data activation process is irreversible, please select [Yes] to continue

This ring was found by him in the morning while taking the subway. Its appearance is quite ordinary, and coupled with its remarkably light weight, Chen Tiancai estimated it to be of little value. Therefore, he picked it up to keep as a trinket to play with.

Originally, Chen Tiancai thought that Liu Cheng's words were merely a form of self-comfort. However, upon hearing Fang Jingtang also affirm him, he immediately cast aside thoughts of the system and the like, as he genuinely wanted to create games

Or perhaps there is an invincible snail that has been relentlessly pursuing him
