The steps of summer are approaching us as we are getting closer and closer. It is already the end of April. Even the afterglow of dusk is less gentle. It is scattered in every corner of the city with a full of heat and is refracted into colors by some glass windows, like rainbows after rain that dot this city that has actually not rained for a long time.

I remember that there was a lot of rain in early spring this year, and it refused to rain again in late spring. The whole city suddenly fell into dryness, and sprinkler trucks working on the road could be seen everywhere.

After a busy day, I was going to Shanghai to see Jian Wei, because I haven't been there for nearly half a month since I visited her with Le Yao last time. But just as I was packing my briefcase, the boy came to my office with a USB flash drive in his hand and said to me: "Brother Yang, today our game development team has completed the character styling and equipment mode. You can see if you are satisfied."

I put down the briefcase in my hand and was surprised that under the leadership of the boy, the entire team promoted the project. According to the original plan, the two links of character shape and equipment mode could not be completed within a week. I started to start the computer again, plugged in the USB drive brought by the boy, and started to look at it one by one. It took about twenty minutes. I communicated with the boy with a few unreasonable character shapes and weapon upgrade modes that I was not very satisfied with. He then called out several main creators, and we communicated for more than an hour until we basically reached a consensus.

Afterwards, I asked the boy some other questions about game development. After answering it one by one, he also raised his own doubts. He asked me: "Brother Yang, how much publicity funds will the company prepare for the promotion before the game is put into operation?"

"Mr. Zhou and I attach great importance to cost control. Regarding the funds for early publicity, it depends on how much development funds your development team can save. The market competition pressure is very high. Every amount of funds we spend must be strictly controlled, so I can't give you specific numbers yet. I hope your development team can improve development efficiency and avoid unnecessary waste."

"I understand that I have been strictly controlling the development efficiency, and the cooperation of the entire team is becoming more and more tacit. Otherwise, it would be impossible to complete the two small items of character styling and equipment mode one week in advance... Well, Brother Yang, actually I just want to ask, do you plan to invite Sister Le Yao to be the spokesperson for our game? This will save a lot of publicity funds!"

"Will you save it?...Le Yao, she is too big, we can't afford to invite her. We don't plan to invite any celebrity endorsements for the promotion after the game is launched!"

"Brother Yang, what is your relationship with Sister Le Yao! You can ask her to endorse her friendship! As long as she is willing, we can really spend a lot of resources on publicity. Have you forgotten her title of National Goddess? The main body of her fans is all otaku who has a hobby of playing games. She is really suitable for our game!"

I said to the boy seriously: "Boy, you should know more than anyone else about the scale of our game. You also know what Le Yao's value is. There is not the same level between the two. Yes, Le Yao can indeed help us endorse our friendship, but think about it: a super first-line actress endorsing a second-rate mobile game is a dangerous behavior that reduces her commercial value. The road of literature and art has damaged her commercial value so much. If the mobile game is damaged again, are we too selfish?"

The boy lowered his head and was silent for a long time before replying: "I'm sorry, I didn't think enough. I always habitually thought that Sister Le Yao would do anything for you willingly, but she didn't think about it from her perspective."

I sighed in my heart, and I felt that I owe too much to this woman, so much that I don’t know what to repay in my life. Although she never asked me to pay it back, I finally patted the boy on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile: "Don’t worry, even if we don’t invite celebrities to endorse, we have other ways to make the popularity of this game. You should believe in our company’s marketing planning capabilities!"

"Well, Brother Yang, since I follow you, I will definitely believe in you 100%. I will do my best to develop my own game later. Let's leave the promotion of games to the marketing department who is better at it."

I nodded... After that, the boy talked to me about his private matters. He asked me about Jian Wei's current physical condition, and I once again gave the boy a disappointed answer.

......

This night, it was already past 9 o'clock when I left the company because I was dealing with work affairs, and it was not practical to go to Shanghai again. I was just walking on the streets with a briefcase, and my dinner was solved while walking, and my brain was not idle. I was conceiving promotion strategies before the game was launched. Although I was still in good time, it was definitely not a bad thing to plan ahead.

Although Fang Yuan and I live in this city, I haven't seen him again in more than a month. But just as I was about to put the bag in my hand into the trash can, I saw him and Mi Lan coming from the opposite side. They seemed to have just attended a cocktail party because Mi Lan's face was a little flushed after drinking, and Fang Yuan had never been able to drink, so he walked as usual.

While I found them, they also found me. Fang Yuan said a few words in Mi Lan's ear. Mi Lan followed the assistant behind and walked towards the parking lot on the other side, and Fang Yuan walked towards me.

He still spoke to me first and asked, "Have you just got off work?"

"If you have anything, just say it. We don't need to waste time and spend chatting like this."

Fang Yuan was a little silent and said, "I just heard that Jian Wei has not woken up until now. I contacted the old Chinese doctor in Tianjin. He said that some traditional Chinese medicine treatment methods are also helpful for restoring consciousness. You might as well try it. If you agree, I can invite him to Shanghai first to see Jian Wei's current situation!"

I was unwilling to give up all the chances that Jian Wei could wake up, so I said to Fang Yuan: "You give me his contact information, just contact him."

"He is a more authoritative Chinese medicine expert in China. He can't invite him without a certain friendship. I'll do this. I told him in detail what I learned. He said that Jian Wei's current situation may be caused by overtreatment. In fact, you can try a more gentle Chinese medicine treatment method."

Jian Wei's safety is greater than everything. I accepted the help from Fang Yuan. He comforted me and must give Jian Wei some patience. There are many vegetable people in clinical practice who only woke up a few years later. Compared with these people, Jian Wei's current situation is not too bad.

I asked him when he could ask the old Chinese doctor to go to Shanghai for consultation. He promised me that he would do this tomorrow. When he left, he patted my shoulder as before. His smile was still full of calmness in the face of changes. I was a little dazed in an instant, as if he had abandoned Yan Yan and planned to plot against Mi Cai and my evil deeds. They were just a fantasy thing, and he was still the Fangyuan who always solved my troubles.

However, this is not a fantasy after all, so until now, I can't understand what he is pursuing such a life, but we seem to have walked through countless platforms. Finally, one stood by the cliff and the other continued to walk on the road paved with gravel...

.........

The next morning, I put down my work and went to the hospital in Shanghai early. Fang Yuan gave me a reply that he would bring that expert in the field of traditional Chinese medicine to Shanghai at 9 o'clock.

At this time, Yan Yan and Qin Yan were preparing for their wedding. The one who took care of Jian Wei in the hospital was a full-time accompanying staff we recently hired. Mo Zishi tried his best as usual, and would come to the hospital in the morning, noon and evening, and then record Jian Wei's physical condition.

When I arrived at the hospital, he happened to have a morning examination for Jian Wei. He gently brought it to the ward door and signaled me not to go in now. The accompanying staff was helping Jian Wei with a full body massage.

I sat on the bench in front of the ward and told him about an expert in the field of traditional Chinese medicine to participate in the treatment. Although he studied Western medicine, he did not show any rejection. Instead, he said with a serious expression: "Yes! As long as this Chinese medicine doctor can put forward his unique insights on Jian Wei's treatment, I can invite Dr. Carter to come back, and then we will develop a treatment plan that combines traditional Chinese and Western medicine, which may have unexpected results... At this time, I also tend to try several treatment methods!"

I clicked a little more hope, and as a patient's relatives and friends, it is often this mood, repeating hope, disappointment, and rekindling hope...

After talking about this topic, Mo Zishi asked me, who was in a state of distractedness, “Did you contact the girl after the phone number I gave you last time?”

I looked at him blankly, and after a while I remembered that he did give me a number a week ago and told me that this girl worked in an agency and had very superior conditions. I couldn't resist his entanglement at that time and agreed to take the time to contact the girl, but I didn't take this matter seriously at all.

I replied: "I've been so busy with work recently, I'll talk about it when I have time..."

Mo Zishi looked unhappy: "You are perfunctory to me!"

"Brother, is it that I am perfunctory or are you messing with me?...You know, you know that this is the eighth one!... It's only been three months, what do you want to do! Ah?"

Mo Zishi's face was even more aggrieved than me, and he replied: "Zhaoyang, you touched your conscience and said, "As long as the girl I introduced you, no one in a hundred, can you not be so stubborn!"

"Who is stubborn?...Mo Zishi, I have never seen you like this. If you dare to force me to the point of being too impatient, I will just go back to you by the way of others and directly help you sign up for those blind dates that are so popular. You see those girls shining on the stage one by one, and there is always something that makes you excited... At that time, let you show off as much as you can, as if you are the loneliest in the whole world, and you still use a lonely heart to care about other people's affairs!"

Our boring dispute made the nurses passing by look at each other. It was not until Yan Yan walked out of the elevator that the two of them closed their mouths tacitly, as if the blind date was only the secret of the two of us, and the third person could not know it, but the moment he was still shutting up, glaring at each other unhappily.

Yan Yan walked to me with the crowd who had just got off the elevator. I thought for a while and said to her: "At 9 o'clock, Fang Yuan will bring an expert from the field of traditional Chinese medicine to the hospital. If you feel it is inconvenient to meet, please avoid it."
Chapter completed!
