“Wang Xiangliang, I’ll say one last thing. If you still want to leave after hearing this, I won’t stop you!”

After Xu Zhi finished speaking, Wang Xiangliang did not continue walking forward. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at the ground. Xu Zhi also began to speak amiably.

“Wang Xiangliang, I’ve heard a saying: You will lose your money the same way you got it. Don’t you think this saying is very true to you? You lost everything in one night. Why? Because your money isn’t from the right source. You can’t control it. Let me ask you, what are you going to do this time? Are you going to move bricks? Go to work? No, I don’t think you will!!”

“It’s not that I’m looking down on you. This is human nature. When you once earned money that you shouldn’t have earned in the past few years, your heart would change, and it would turn black.”

“I think that when you come out this time, it might not be long before you go back to making plug-ins and cheats, because it’s a fatal temptation for you. Wang Xiangliang, this is a quagmire. If you get sucked into it again, no one will be able to pull you out.”

“I, Xu Zhi, don’t have any malicious intentions. What I like is your innate talent. Come to my company. If you have any requests, feel free to mention them. I need your skills, and you need my platform. This is a win-win deal!”

Perhaps it was Xu Zhi’s sincere words, or perhaps it was the truth in Xu Zhi’s words, Wang Xiangliang finally raised his head.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll forget all my skills after three years?”

“I’m not worried!” Xu Zhi said affirmatively. “In my opinion, although three years is not a short period of time, it’s not a problem for a person like you.”

“Humph!” Wang Xiangliang laughed contemptuously. He was not confronting Xu Zhi, but he was confident in his own skills. For a person like him, the technology he mastered back then was not outdated for five years, let alone three years.

“Are you sincere?” Wang Xiangliang suddenly looked at Xu Zhi with a wolf-like gaze.

“If I, Xu Zhi, am not sincere, I will be struck by lightning here tomorrow!” Xu Zhi said while clenching his teeth and pointing at the ground.

“Alright, let’s not talk about the salary first. Give me 10,000 yuan first. I will go pack up. I will go to your company tomorrow.”

Wang Xiangliang smiled and looked at Xu Zhi. This was a test. If Xu Zhi refused, he, Wang Xiangliang, would turn around and leave.

Xu Zhi also smiled.

“What is your bank account number? I will give it to you now.”

“62389569xxxxxxx.” Wang Xiangliang looked at Xu Zhi and recited a number.

After a while, Xu Zhi put down the phone.

“Alright, I’ve already settled my finances. You can check at any time.”

“Hahaha.” Without saying anything, Wang Xiangliang laughed and left.

“Hey,” Xu Zhi suddenly called out to Wang Xiangliang. “I haven’t given you my company’s address yet!”

“No need!”

Wang Xiangliang did not even turn his head.

Looking at Wang Xiangliang who was striding away, Xu Zhi let out a long sigh.

…

The next day.

From early morning to dusk, Xu Zhi had been waiting for Wang Xiangliang while he was dealing with work at the company.

However, just like a lone sail that had gone far away, nothing could be seen on the surface of the sea except for the afterglow of the setting sun.

By the time it was seven o’clock in the afternoon, there were only a few employees left in the company.

Xu Zhi smacked his lips and prepared to go home in disappointment.

On the first floor of the company, Xu Zhi was suddenly stunned. He did not expect Wang Xiangliang to bit sitting on a small bench on the first floor. He was wearing a checkered shirt and was holding a brand-new backpack in his arms.

“Why are you here?” Xu Zhi asked in surprise.

“Didn’t I say yesterday that I would come today? Why? Shouldn’t I be here?”

Wang Xiangliang stood up with his bag in his arms.

“Hahaha!!”

Xu Zhi’s gloomy mood was swept away. He pulled Wang Xiangliang and walked upstairs. “Let’s go to my office.”

In the office, Xu Zhi poured a glass of water for Wang Xiangliang and said with a smile, “I’ve been waiting for you all day. I thought you wouldn’t come.”

“President Xu treated me so well yesterday. I, Wang Xiangliang, can’t come empty-handed today, right? I made some preparations when I went back and spent some time.” Wang Xiangliang opened the backpack in his arms and took out a laptop.

He spread the laptop on the table and looked at Wang Xiangliang with interest.

At this time, after Wang Xiangliang turned on the computer, his fingers swept across the keyboard at lightning speed, and he quickly pulled out a few hidden folders.

“I’ve done some research on Jumping the Line of Fire game. There are a lot of loopholes, so it’s very easy to make a plug-in. It’s not that easy to defend against it. Also, because it’s a shooting game, it’s even more difficult.”

“Before a large amount of data is transferred to the server, a certain amount of calculation will be done on the local computer. It’s very simple to grab the bag and make it transparent.”

“Defending against the plug-in will be a long process. It can’t be done overnight, and it’s also impossible to skip the process and get the result directly.”

“I understand!” Xu Zhi nodded. He knew that Wang Xiangliang’s words were meant for him.

“Good. These folders are some of the patches I made today. I estimate that after joining the game, it can reduce the number of plug-ins by at most 80%, or at least 60%. It can temporarily stop plug-ins.”

“Are you saying that these patches you made can at least defend against 60% of the current plug-ins? At most, it can defend against 80% ?” Xu Zhi asked in disbelief.

“That’s right. There are different levels of plug-ins. My patches will be a devastating blow to some low-level plug-ins. This is a small gift for President Xu. However, this patch is limited to this. If you want to improve one step further, it’s not something that can be done with patches.”

“Then how do you want to do it? Develop a separate login software?” Xu Zhi asked humbly.

Wang Xiangliang looked at Xu Zhi in surprise.

“That’s right. To be precise, it’s a separate monitoring software. On the fragile body of Jumping the Line of Fire, we’ll erect a line of defense and build a separate anti-cheat system.”

“I’m afraid that won’t be easy, right?”

Xu Zhi had experience from his previous life, so he knew that this was not a simple matter.

“Indeed, but this is only a technical problem. Actually, I have other ideas today.” Wang Xiangliang took out another piece of paper from his bag.

“I’m all ears!”

“In the past few years, I’ve thought a lot in prison. It’s not only about plug-ins but also about defending against plug-ins. I have some ideas of my own. I think that if you want to fight against plug-ins, you can’t just do it from a technical point of view. Instead, you have to build an anti-plug-in system and fight against plug-ins in all aspects.”

“The root of the use of plug-ins is human nature. It makes sense to do something from this point of view. No matter how good the technology is, it will be cracked one day, but if we can get players to take the initiative to abandon plug-ins, I think any high-tech plug-ins will disappear.”

“Last night I wrote down some of my ideas on this paper, I think if we can implement all of it, the plug-ins, this tiger will be tamed no matter how powerful it is..”
