Chapter 635
Although the letter was disregarded, their PR team still had to write an article to broadcast this incident to
keep users in the loop.
Even though they could be silenced by theirpetitor’s powerful ghostwriters, the new version of the
game was released after a day or two of warming up since the news broke.
This version was extremely simr to ‘Medal of Sniper’ by Richard’s game developmentpany. Since
its release, it instantly attracted attention and a wave of negative news followed.
When the other party became aware, they officially sent out awyer’s letter while buying arge number
of inte ghostwriters to attack Sophia’spany. It was the typical move of a hypocrite.
Since then, thepany had be hectic. The pressure on every department was particrly high,
especially for the Public Rtions department.

“Aunt, what should we do next? They’re suing us!” Stanley panicked.
At that moment, Sophia felt indifferent. “Stan, do you know what media hype is?”
Now that the twopanies were suing each other for giarism, this incident had immediately
attracted a lot of attention. Even those who were not yers were driven by curiosity to download both
games topare as they wanted to find out who was the true giarist.
As such, the number of downloads for both games had shot up significantly.
One of these games was developed by a neerpany with many aspects still in the experimental
stage, and the user experience was not as good as others. Yet, they had many ideas and the gamey
was unique.
On the other hand, the other game was from an establishedpany with many years of experience
and a strong and aggressive team.
They each had their own strengths. In terms of the number of downloads for each game, it was a tie
between the two.
Still, ‘Medal of Sniper’ obviously had the upper hand with their strong team from behind the scenes.
Otherwise, they would not be standing now with all thewsuits filed against them over the years.
At this point, this situation was unfavorable for Sophia.
Before thewsuit was concluded, both parties may be the giarist. Meanwhile, fans of both games
were losing their heads.
Sean was a nervous wreck. He had been working overtime every day, as he was constantly reporting
any updates to Sophia.
“Aunt, there areints against our game andpany. The relevant authorities have asked to meet
Stan.”
Sophia was calm. “Don’t worry, Stan will be back in a while. We’re undergraduate entrepreneurs, so
concessions will be made. No one will trouble us for no reason.”
The problems didn’t stoping. “Miss Edwards, several of our games received over ten thousand zero-
star reviews overnight. The average score has gone down to 2 out of 10.”
“Miss Edwards, the business administration and firefighting department stopped by earlier and said that
our relevant procedures were unqualified.”
“The Travelling Snail has been temporarily removed from the app store due toints, and there is a
new game called The Butterfly’s Outing. The gamey is exactly the same as our game!”
“Miss Edwards…”
In fact, it seems like Sophia had already anticipated all kinds of emergencies.
If they couldn’t get rid of them through illegal means, then they would use wful’ methods. The other
party was frantic and would not stop until Sophia’spany was destroyed!
Standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, Sophia looked out to the view of Bayside City. “It’s time…” Her
lips curled up.
Bad publicity was still publicity. Though they were ndered, their exposure had ultimately skyrocketed.
Once the time was right, they would get the chance to turn the page. This was a trick she’d learn from
Harps.
As the twopanies were tearing each other down because of the giarism issue, a sudden news
came that shocked the entire online game industry!
Currently, Richard was investing in one of Cethos’s top online gamepanies called Raytheon Tech
that had developed a number of popr online games, some of which were used in the Esports World
Championship. However, those in the industry knew that many of their games were giarized from well-
known ssic online games from overseas. For various reasons, the other parties had given up their
rights protections, but now, several foreign online gamepanies had sent awyer’s letter to
Raytheon Tech. They were publicly defending their rights and suing Raytheon Tech for infringement,
demanding highpensations.
Now, severalpanies were suing at the same time, which involved more than a dozen games! This
never-before-seen multinationalwsuit was shocking to the industry and various rted parties.
Due to the bad press, the games under Raytheon Tech that were used in the Esports World
Championship were invalidated.
It was as if Raytheon Tech had just messed with a ho’s nest!
The people in the industry were specting that Raytheon Tech might have provoked some powerful
figure this time.
As soon as this news broke, Sophia’s team was relieved.
Apany like Raytheon Tech should have been shut down a long time ago!
For the past couple of days, Stanley had been busy with meetings with several different authorities. He
still had the protection of the Fletcher Family status, hence no one dared to give him a hard time.
Fortunately, thepany’s procedures were inpliance with regtions, and they were on time with
tax payments. On top of that, thepany was run by university students, so they were able to get
subsidies. Also, they strictly abided by thews and regtions, so there were no loopholes. For the
sake of Stanley, they would not cause any major trouble with them.
Just then, Stanley returned from the tax department, looking exhausted. “Every department has been
taken care of, including inte cafes and e-sports associations.”
“By the way, the cooperation between ‘The Traveling Snail’ and several scenic spots has also been
negotiated. We will ntndmarks in the postcards sent back by the snails to promote their scenic
spots and I’ll be signing the contract in the next two days.”
Upon hearing that, Sophia patted him on the shoulder. “You’ve worked hard.”
Then, Sean asked, “What should we do next?”
For some reason, it had be a habit for everyone to wait for Sophia to make a decision. It was
probably because she was older, and also an aunt.
Mysteriously, Sophia smirked. “An eye for an eye.”
That very night, ‘Medal of Sniper’ was cyber attacked by hackers. Arge number of ounts was stolen
and ced on a trading tform, which caused an outburst ofints from yers. Not only that, the
server was also destroyed and the game was shut down for more than twelve hours.
As the major shareholder of Raytheon Tech and thepany’s decision-maker, Richard was directly
responsible for ‘Medal of Sniper’. On that day itself, all kinds of crises emerged one after another.
“President Harper, the game is currently down!”
“Our servers were destroyed and the IT staff have collectively resigned today!”
“We’ve received over twenty resignation letters!”
At once, Richard’s expression darkened. Suddenly, there was a sharp cry from the reception desk. A
group of gangsters had barged in and started to smash everything, and even sshing feces!
A few more buckets of feces were pulled into the office. The gangsters were not afraid of getting dirty
and immediately, they started to ssh.
Just then, the security who rushed up to stop them were sshed with feces and he instantly retreated in
disgust.
Soon, the office was filled with a pungent odor and theputers and desks were all soiled. The
employees were so disgusted that they had fled the moment the gangsters started doing their deed.
When the police were called, the gangsters escaped without a trace, but the office was already
completely ruined.
Richard had been hiding in his office all this while. Still, feces was sshed onto his lower body. He
looked down and was so disgusted that he vomited. When he saw his own vomit, he vomited again.
Suddenly, his phone rang. Once he answered, Mr. Harper’s voice rang from the other end. “How dare
you embezzle thepany’s funds in my name? Fantastic, just fantastic!”
