When the announcement was first released, some people didn't react immediately, wondering why Zhumeng would thank these three competitors.
But they were quickly reminded:
"The 'Frost Snow Project' was almost taken down, mostly because these three companies were meddling behind the scenes!"
"For Zhumeng to be so angry as to publicly call them out, they must have used some unsavory tactics."
So everyone quickly understood, abandoning the cheers and congratulatory messages they had prepared, and replaced them with another set of 'auspicious words':
"Luzhu Games, Miaowang Games, Kashima Games, fuck your mothers! Did you hear that? Fuck your mothers!"
"Damn it, game companies should focus on making games, not engaging in these underhanded tactics every day!"
"If you can't beat them in game development, you stab them in the back, huh? Trash!"
"Remember the names of these three companies. In the future, avoid all their games."
"Avoid? Avoid my ass! I'm blacklisting them and deleting their games right now!"
"Seeing this announcement, I can't help but ask... who the hell are these guys anyway?"
......
The players were ignited with anger by Xu Meng's announcement, and they fiercely cursed these three companies on Mengjin, Weiguang, pilipili, and in chat groups...
...in all the places where they were active.
Especially in the comment sections of these three companies' official accounts, which were flooded with tens of thousands of replies filled with extremely vulgar language.
The players of "Frost Snow Project" cursed the most fiercely.
— The game was "almost" castrated, even taken down, which already infuriated them.
They cursed with unrestrained pleasure.
The players of "Frost Snow Project" took the lead, and casual players were not to be outdone.
They followed suit, beating a dog when it's down, even taking the opportunity to kick it a few times and spit on it.
"Reporting" has always been a "taboo" weapon in the gaming industry.
Because if you're not careful, the risk will spill over and affect the entire industry.
At that time, it would damage more than just one or two companies or one or two games.
For the players, this trend must be nipped in the bud!
The same goes for game companies!
Especially after "Frost Snow Project" became a hit, many game companies, envious of Zhumeng's revenue, began to launch characters with bolder styles.
The feedback was very good.
With "Frost Snow Project" attracting the attention, no one came to criticize them, and they comfortably made a fortune in silence.
Who would want this comfortable state to be interrupted?
So... those with money contributed money, and those with strength contributed strength, beating a dog when it's down.
......
The cursing was so intense that Luzhu Games, Miaowang Games, and Kashima Games all welcomed the highest peak of popularity since the company's founding!
It's just that they didn't really want this popularity...
One by one, they had to hold emergency meetings to discuss how to deal with the surging public opinion.
Especially Luzhu Games and Miaowang Games.
Kashima Games is essentially an outsourcing company with no in-house games. The projects they are currently working on are still overseas projects.
Although they are being cursed, their revenue will not be affected for the time being.
But Luzhu Games and Miaowang Games are different.
One of these two companies operates two mobile games, and the other operates three, all in a half-dead state.
Their daily active users have already fallen to the bottom. After deducting operating costs, they only earn enough to keep the company afloat.
Especially after "Frost Snow Project" became a hit, the data deteriorated even further, which is why they couldn't help but go all in.
But they didn't expect that the broken jar they threw out would hit them so accurately on the foot!
They are now in a state of utter chaos.
But before they could come up with a solution, an even more serious problem appeared—
Their customer service received hundreds of requests for invoices, and as time went on, more and more users were requesting invoices!
Faced with this abnormal situation, Meng Jiawei, the operations director of Luzhu Games, immediately realized something was wrong and quickly took out his phone to find out where the problem lay.
In less than three minutes, he located the root of the problem on Mengjin—
[Stop cursing! Cursing won't kill them! If you want them to die, follow my instructions]
1. Refunds.
They may not give you a refund directly.
But it's okay, follow my steps—
Step 1: Request a refund.
Step 2: Tell customer service that if they don't give you a refund, you'll call the consumer complaint hotline.
Step 3: Actually call, and it will be effective if enough people call. Game companies are the easiest to bully and will handle it.
Step 4: Some mobile phone operating systems can force refunds. Refund directly if you can.
Step 5: Refunds for minors.
If you're a minor, refund directly. If you're an adult, say your phone was used by your younger sibling, relative's child, and they accidentally spent the money. Try your luck even if it's unlikely to work.
It's good to give them some extra work.
2. Request invoices.
Everyone who has ever spent money in Luzhu or Miaowang's games, immediately request them to issue you paper invoices.
This won't make them pay more taxes, but it will add a bunch of extra work for them.
If they don't issue them, then even better, call the tax service hotline and report them to the tax bureau.
3. Leave bad reviews.
On all app stores, all channels, everywhere you can leave bad reviews, give their games bad reviews.
Let their new user acquisition numbers go to zero!
4. Delete accounts.
Special note: This is only for players who are very angry and decide to AFK.
If you still like their games, or if one of their games has special meaning to you, then feel free to continue playing. No one will blame you.
(Our opponents are these three unscrupulous game companies, not normal game players. Be sure to distinguish between friend and foe!)
Simply deleting the game doesn't give them a direct feeling.
But canceling your account is different. This is the most intense resistance, meaning they have completely lost old users and will never come back.
Refunds, overtime, cutting off new users, losing old users.
Only in this way can they feel the pain!

After Meng Jiawei finished reading this post and looked at the replies, which were filled with "Sir, you are righteous!" "Dragon-slaying technique!" "Learned a lot!"
His hands began to tremble.
"Too... too vicious!"
He hurriedly interrupted the meeting and pushed the post to all the management.
......
In the pilipili livestream, Brave Sniper Hand responded to a few more questions, patted the non-existent dust on his hands, closed Mengjin, and concealed his identity and name.
The livestream was filled with cheers:
"As expected of a former industry insider, right to the point."
"As expected of the number one UP master of 'Frost Snow Project', loyal! Sincere!"
"Forever loyal, forever leading the charge!"
The latest novel is first published on !
"Brother, you're so loyal, doesn't Zhumeng have anything to offer? Not even a commercial deal, that's not right, is it?"
......
Brave Sniper Hand noticed the barrage and immediately explained: "What are you saying? You're being too polite?!"
"I can have my current 800,000 followers and support myself through livestreaming, all thanks to 'Frost Snow Project'."
"They are already my bread and butter—second only to the sugar daddies in the livestream."
"So don't say Zhumeng is stingy."
"Let's continue playing the game. We haven't studied the new character yet."
While Brave Sniper Hand was expressing his loyalty, his phone suddenly rang.
He answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"A package? Leave it at the express station, thank you."
"Important item, must be signed for in person?"
"Oh, it's already downstairs, wait a moment, I'll be right there!"
After hanging up the phone, Brave Sniper Hand apologized to the viewers: "Sorry, going to get a package, be right back!"
After speaking, he hurriedly left the livestream.
Three minutes later, Brave Sniper Hand reappeared in front of the camera holding a large box.
He threw away the keyboard and mouse, and placed the large box on the table—the box was wider than his upper body and could barely fit on the table.
He picked up the camera with an excited expression and aimed it at the box.
"See it?"
"Sender: Zhumeng Game Technology Co., Ltd.!"
"Zhumeng sent it to me!!"
"Who says Zhumeng doesn't have me in their heart anymore?!!"
"Not playing games for now, livestream unboxing!"
His excitement was beyond words.
The viewers were also very surprised, curious about what Zhumeng would send him.
Brave Sniper Hand didn't waste any time.
After adjusting the position of the camera and placing the box on the ground, he took out a utility knife and cut open the tape in a few strokes, carefully opening the box.
The first thing he saw was a piece of A4 paper.
He picked up the A4 paper and read the words on it:
「Dear 'Frost Snow Project' player Brave Sniper Hand:

While Brave Sniper Hand was excitedly reading this letter, he didn't notice that on the back of this A4 paper, eight large characters were printed in bright red—
【Confidential Information, Do Not Disclose!】
The viewers in the livestream were going crazy looking at these eight large characters, frantically reminding him in the livestream.
But Brave Sniper Hand was immersed in the joy of unboxing and was completely unaware of this.
While saying: "Brothers, I'm really a little touched now!"
He put the A4 paper aside and skillfully removed the cushioning foam to take out the items.
"The touching words can wait."
"Let's see what big treasures Zhumeng sent me!"
I was reminded by a book friend that there is actually a company called Luzhu Games in reality...
This is the second book, and I still couldn't avoid the embarrassment of name collision.
To avoid trouble, it has been changed to [Luzhu Games], please forgive me.
