Because Marumi unilaterally altered the plot of “Fantasy World,” and without authorization, used the publisher’s banner to deceive countless customers, claiming it was a new server for “Fantasy World,” but was actually promoting their own new product. Given Marumi’s extreme dishonesty and malicious infringement of the rights of Yamato Technology, the publisher, a punitive compensation of one billion dollars is demanded. Tian Yingzi glanced roughly at the document, focusing only on these sensational claims, and was astonished that the other party was demanding a billion dollars in compensation right off the bat, which was quite an appetite. When she saw the figure of a billion dollars in compensation, Tian Yingzi couldn’t help but read it aloud. She knew that if the claims listed by the other party were true, Marumi indeed had its faults. For instance, when they launched the virtual reality game “Fantasy Mirage,” they did use the name of “Fantasy World” without seeking authorization from Yamato Technology, essentially a case of misrepresentation, where the actual content was a new game “Net Spirit” transplanted onto the framework of “Fantasy World.” In purely commercial terms, Yamato had indeed caught Marumi with their pants down. If it came to a lawsuit, Yamato was sure to win. No wonder they were so aggressive. However, in the gaming industry, using a popular product to push a new one is an unwritten rule, and no partner had ever used such tactics to pin down another, let alone demand such an exorbitant compensation of a billion dollars. However, it was quite frustrating. The contract between the two parties did not specify whether secondary development could be conducted using the other’s platform, and according to common understanding, what was not expressly forbidden could be done. Moreover, from a normal business cooperation perspective, Marumi leveraging “Fantasy World’s” fame to promote their new product was supposed to be mutually beneficial, with no fundamental conflict of interest. But now, the other party was suddenly serious, nitpicking the terms, which immediately changed the flavor of the situation.
Tian Yingzi did not know the true identities behind these three individuals or that their visit was with the intention of falling out mercilessly, ready to fight to the death, to drag “Fantasy World” through the mud. She recalled from her intelligence that these three had just negotiated a contract with another domestic game company that morning, selling the agency rights for the next five years at the ultra-low price of one million yen. One side was demanding a billion dollars in compensation, while the other was practically giving away the agency rights for the next five years for just one million yen. The stark contrast made even someone as well-trained and versatile as Tian Yingzi, a super elite in the military, unable to suppress her anger!
Bang! Tian Yingzi slammed her palm down on the table, sending the documents flying like snowflakes all over the room. “This is outrageous! What do you want?!” Tian Yingzi slammed the table in anger, her voice like a fierce tigress. Seeing this, the trio from Fujilanjiyuan immediately brightened up but feigned surprise. Fujilanjiyuan said insincerely, “Little girl, getting angry is not pretty. You’ve seen the documents, if you can’t make decisions, don’t get upset, let Qin Sang come out to talk.” As he spoke, he inadvertently flashed a sinister smile and reached out his chubby, greasy hand, trying to pat Tian Yingzi’s delicate hand.
In her fury, Tian Yingzi had let her guard down, not expecting this beast to dare to touch her. Moreover, Fujilanjiyuan was no ordinary businessman; his skills were indeed formidable. Before she could react, his chubby hand was already hovering over Tian Yingzi’s white hand, about to press down.
“Humph,” Lin Feng, who had been coldly watching the drama unfold, suddenly had a sharp glint in his small eyes and let out a cold snort. Although he had decided not to deal with these three Japanese, he had considered using some underhanded tactics to provoke them, especially after learning that their purpose was not just to terminate the contract but also to make such an audacious demand for a billion dollars in compensation. Now, seeing one billion dollars in compensation suddenly appear, Lin Feng maliciously speculated whether these Japanese had gone mad with greed, while he continued to watch coldly, anticipating the moment when Lieutenant Tian would inevitably report to the person in charge, promising a good show. After all, feeling deceived and used, he had developed a strong aversion, and if not for his own vulnerabilities being exploited, he would have already gone berserk like Sun Wukong in the Heavenly Palace. Now, however, the seemingly honest old man, Fujilanjiyuan, was taking advantage of Tian Yingzi’s moment of distraction to act improperly. Moreover, judging by the techniques he displayed in that instant, he was indeed a master of hidden martial arts. Fujilanjiyuan’s hand moved like lightning, covering Tian Yingzi’s hand, but Lin Feng, with his keen eye, immediately recognized this seemingly casual grab as containing the highest form of Japanese ninjutsu’s illusionary attack.
The so-called illusion attack is somewhat akin to deep hypnosis, utilizing the moment when the opponent’s mind is distracted to suddenly interfere with their consciousness using mental force. Once locked, the victim would be instantly drawn into a specific illusory world, compelling them to perform actions against their will. Lin Feng could recognize this sinister move because he had spent the past few days with Niu Niu, researching and mimicking ways to decode the Thousand Illusion Coca Code, inadvertently gaining a thorough understanding of various illusion techniques from different schools worldwide. Although he didn’t know what Fujilanjiyuan’s intention was with such a vicious move, the lecherous expression on his face and the hopeful looks from his two accomplices suggested nothing good. Especially when he saw Fujilanjiyuan’s dirty trick aimed at Tian Yingzi’s hand, Lin Feng felt a sudden jolt in his heart, a sour taste rising up, as if a vinegar jar hidden deep within had been overturned. Therefore, even Lin Feng himself did not expect that, in his subconscious cold rebuke, a mental shock attack would instantly shoot towards Fujilanjiyuan.
