Sure, this video indirectly promoted our game again, but the leak of character model data is a serious matter...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Qin Xiaoyu, who remained calm and silent for so long, Cai Qiu’s eyes showed a flicker of anxiety and confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If this had happened to any other game company, they would spare no cost—immediately take down the video and send the leaker to enjoy free room and board.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Didn’t you just say this is essentially free promotion for us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Xiaoyu yawned, glancing at Old Cai. “You’re suspecting Wei, right? There’s no leaker—I gave the character model data to this UP owner myself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You? How could you...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Qiu’s pupils widened instantly; his bewildered expression matched his tone perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re worried that competitors will take the model data, make minor tweaks, and claim it as their own? Don’t worry—what you fear won’t happen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Xiaoyu saw right through Cai Qiu’s concern and gently reassured him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for why he shouldn’t worry, Qin Xiaoyu had no intention of explaining just yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This matter is complicated; if he were to explain it fully, it wouldn’t be settled in a few words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’ll be a better chance later to tell them slowly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way, Old Cai, I’m going back to sleep. If you’ve got time, publish all the character model data from our game on Xiaopu Station and our official site—with the condition that it’s for secondary creation only.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Qin Xiaoyu looked at Cai Qiu’s stunned face and added: “Also, team up with Xiaopu Station to host a genshin secondary creation contest. Discuss the prize money with Wei.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only because Cai Qiu already revered Qin Xiaoyu utterly would he not have erupted in protest if anyone else had said this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a company to publicly release its own character model data—no one in Xia’s gaming industry had ever dared to do such a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Qiu felt no one had ever even conceived of such an idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But since this decision came from Qin Xiaoyu, though he still struggled to understand it, he couldn’t say more. After a few seconds of hesitation, he finally nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Got it, Yu-ge! I’ll talk to Wei when he gets here!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I’m heading back.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Qin Xiaoyu stood up and left the studio.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That same noon, a moderate but significant rumor stirred another wave in Xia’s gaming circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>MHY had voluntarily released its character model data.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And partnered with Xiaopu Station to host a secondary creation contest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon the news breaking, senior executives across Xia’s gaming industry held divergent views.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many small-company managers scoffed, calling MHY insane—this move was self-immolation, benefiting others at their own expense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some executives from major game studios understood the deeper strategy but had no interest in commenting or paying attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A simple ad campaign on any channel would yield better results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Put plainly—they completely dismissed this approach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, the countless gaming bloggers on Xiaopu Station acted as if it were the New Year—each one thrilled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With model data now public, they could create far superior secondary content—and there was even a contest to join.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their enthusiasm surged instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within just one day, over a thousand Genshin-related secondary creation videos appeared on Xiaopu Station, including several viral hits.\u003C\u002Fp>",546,"2026-06-19T22:23:19.067Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","2e540d6fcc8734ffb52e57d4649e1a33c94c8b5282d3cadd1c6e244c85e063d3","game-development-starting-from-a-2d-game-chapter-42","game-development-starting-from-a-2d-game-chapter-40",89,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgame-development-starting-from-a-2d-game-cover.jpg"]
