While other players are still struggling for 100 followers, they will have already gained thousands or tens of thousands!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’ll also appropriately protect the experience of small spenders and zero-cost players. After all, even with high traffic, retention is key.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Small spenders or zero-cost players, as long as their work’s conversion rate is high enough, can also beat the big spenders, becoming a big influencer ahead of time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He gave an example.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On certain online literature sites, large donations can gain high attention, bringing enormous traffic and readers’ collections to novels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is the advantage of spending money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But ultimately, it’s the work that speaks; if the novel is good, pairing it with donations is like adding wings to a tiger. But if the novel is bad, spending money can’t beat those authors who don’t spend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spending system in \"I Am a Big Influencer\" is the same!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Big spenders might start much faster than others, but in the mid to late stages, zero-cost and small spenders might catch up, or even far surpass big spenders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s fine; that’s no problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba, who had been silent all along, rarely spoke up: \"This in-game purchase plan is indeed good; both zero-cost and big spender players’ experiences are guaranteed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So that’s settled!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the seminar ended, Chen Ba allocated a special fund to Yang Dong, then instructed Lu, Liu Jinfu, and Li Qizhen to stay while others dismissed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ba, is there something up?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not much, just wanted to tell you three that you don’t need to participate in Dong’s new project, there’s another arrangement.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another arrangement?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Liu Jinfu and Li Qizhen had no particular reaction, but Lu got interested and couldn’t help asking, \"What arrangement? Could it be your new project, Ba?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not a new project.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba was speechless, thinking Lu’s intelligence varied significantly at times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tianba Studio is not a large-scale game company; how can it simultaneously start multiple game development projects?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Money is not the issue; the problem is a lack of people!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The studio’s personnel are all assigned to develop Yang Dong’s new game, leaving just a few who can start a new game?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it’s not a new project, then what is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A very special task!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba smiled, took out a thick file from the drawer, and distributed it to everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu took it and looked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The document seemed thick, but by its title, it was clear that it was the plan concerning the remastered edition of \"Love Advisor Department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Remastered edition?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah! Remastered is just a nicer term; you could also understand it as a stripped-down version...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba explained: \"As an end-game, ’Love Advisor Department’ won countless player praise with its excellent matching mechanism.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But using computers is still inconvenient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mobile version of \"Love Advisor Department\" was launched, but players felt it wasn’t convenient and demanded too much in terms of configuration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So someone suggested removing all flashy features from \"Love Advisor Department,\" keeping only the core \"matching\" mechanism to create a small software that can be one-clickly awakened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"One-click awakening, express your thoughts, the system will match you with the most suitable love advisor!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba demonstrated with his phone: \"For example, I’m a travel blogger, and I watched a video about Jiangning; wanting to travel there, I can open the software...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I want to travel to Jiangning; any fun spots or tasty food recommendations?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Matching nearby love advisors in Jiangning City for you, please wait...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unnecessary!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu raised an eyebrow and said: \"Isn’t this like taking off pants to fart? I could directly ask the AI assistant and get a response, so why add a matching mechanism?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, you can directly ask the AI assistant and get a response, but do you think the AI assistant’s answers are reliable, or those from locals are?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba smiled and said: \"Oh, by the way, the local answering you is perfectly aligned with your preferences, knowing you better than anyone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed to understand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to directly searching online for answers or asking an AI assistant, the \"matching\" process seemingly adds a step, but significantly boosts the reliability of the outcome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was just a travel inquiry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if the question is different? Like more profound and professional queries, or even emotional issues?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, such topics are beyond the scope of AI, and its answers might even be amusingly misguided.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finding answers online might not work either, after all, if you’re fighting with your girlfriend and hope to find comfort or solutions online, that’s just foolish, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for seeking medical advice online, that’s even more ridiculous; for a small cold, the search engine might just suggest amputation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In these application scenarios, the magical matching mechanism of the \"Love Advisor Department\" becomes quite useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The matched love advisor is tailored to your likings and shares your interests. Their advice or suggestions, while not guaranteed to be absolutely correct, are far more reliable than others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But... can the stripped-down version still have such a magical database matching?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu was somewhat skeptical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The full end-game version of \"Love Advisor Department\" could achieve such precise and fitting matching mainly by relying on powerful AI data analysis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stripped-down version, limited by software size and insufficient data, might not be as effective, and matched love advisors might not be as accurate or aligned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Simply integrate end and mobile games to share data!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba had already prepared a solution: end-mobile integration sharing, allowing the stripped-down version of \"Love Advisor Department\" to enjoy the most comprehensive AI matching mechanisms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stripped-down version of \"Love Advisor Department\" can’t retain its original name, since it’s been stripped down so much, keeping the old name is inappropriate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s call it Ba Assistant!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Awake it with \"Hey! Ba\", after which you can directly state your request content, the system will match special players for real-time answers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, Ba?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu considered the awakening phrase carefully, then jokingly said: \"Are we copying Siri?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How’s it copying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba frowned, saying: \"Isn’t this how all voice assistants are awakened? If not like this, how would you suggest awakening them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoa, Ba!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu proudly said: \"Four syllables, catchy, if it’s three syllables, we could set it as ’Whoa, Ba’ for an awakening word.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you sure this is an awakening word?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba rolled his eyes: \"If we dare to set it like this, don’t you believe this stripped-down version won’t even be publishable?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swearing is definitely not acceptable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu was just joking; awakening words need only be memorable and catchy, and fewer syllables are better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s not hard...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After listening to Ba’s description, the three considered it, finding the task simple, taking at most half a month to complete the stripped-down version.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, then half a month it is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Once you finish this stripped-down version, we’ll hold another meeting to discuss the content of the major update for ’Global Evolution’.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Major update?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lu was stunned: \"Didn’t we just finish a round of updates?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This time is different...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Ba rubbed his temples, saying: \"This update mainly removes limitations so players can keep evolving without limiting the number of times.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nine evolutions are too few!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some players don’t want to start a new file but want to continue playing; reaching the end of the evolution path without further enhancing strength is a bit awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why not allow infinite evolution?\u003C\u002Fp>",1279,"2026-06-06T03:03:37.618Z",1,"novelbin.me","e447d088f46ae8bf87539d6a003d7e4731dcaede4d3adfe56cbd7393539acba6","this-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-chapter-306","this-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-chapter-304",479,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthis-is-not-a-bug-but-a-game-feature-cover.jpg"]
