Chapter 641: Chapter 660: The New Star App Fiasco Post: Only the Unimaginable, Nothing New Star Can’t Flop
There were just so, so many glitches.
So many that even Jiang Qiuqiu, who was in the middle of the live stream, was starting to feel helpless. Her end would freeze up too, and when it did, she couldn’t see anyone’s comments.
Or, a sudden flood of comments would burst onto the screen, overlapping until they became an illegible mess.
All in all, the three-hour live stream was a complete disaster that basically amounted to a public thrashing of the New Star app.
After the stream ended, countless enraged users flooded the New Star app’s message boards to leave comments and swarmed the online customer service to file complaints. But because there were too many people, the complaint portal and the live support chat crashed too.
"..."
There were too many grievances to even know where to begin.
But an initial burst of anger can only last so long before it fades. After being beaten down by one speechless-making failure after another, their endless fury finally subsided. Everyone migrated to Jiang Qiuqiu’s food circle and fan groups to vent and ponder what went wrong.
[I’m losing my mind, how could this kind of error even happen? I’m gonna die. I specifically grabbed the Lamb Soup and the Coo-Coo Meat, so why did the uploaded data combine the two?! I’m speechless. Just... wow. The taste is so weird...]
[I hate data corruption! It feels like a mouse came and ate more than half of my food!]
[Don’t even start. I couldn’t grab anything at all. The lag was killing me.]
[Heh, you think that’s bad? Is anyone suffering more than me? I didn’t lag at all for the entire stream. I managed to grab everything. All the food shown today was unlimited, and I grabbed one of everything! And my orders all went through!]
[??? Is the person above me just asking for a beating?]
[I want to beat someone up. Like, schedule a high-end combat bot to make a house call. Specifically to beat up show-offs. I only got to eat two bites today! And yeah, those two bites were delicious, but I should have been able to eat ten!]
[That person who got everything is so infuriating.]
This was a complaint thread, not a bragging thread.
Everyone started commenting that they should kick the fan who got everything out of the thread. This was a place for the unlucky ones; the luck lords could kindly see themselves out!
[Heh... heh... WAAAHHH... SOB SOB... I got everything, but my end is bugged! I can’t connect to my taste sensor! It won’t connect! All I can do is look. I can’t eat a single thing!]
[I can’t eat a single thing! Or rather, I tasted one, and I have no idea what it was supposed to be... I’m so mad! I can look but I can’t eat! WAAAAHHHH! I even got the person with the fastest reflexes in my department to grab the food for me! I agreed to a totally unfair deal for this, and this is what I get? THIS?! And now it turns out I don’t even have the right to be in this thread!]
[...]
The sheer resentment was practically bursting through the screen.
And the thread just kept getting longer and longer.
Everything about it was terrible. Truly, truly terrible.
Jiang Qiuqiu, Qian Xingxing, and the rest of the original team sat in their new office building. The promotion had been perfect, and the exponential growth in downloads had filled every one of them with confidence.
It was then that Jiang Qiuqiu received a short message from Mei Lin.
Mei Lin: [I tried the app.]
[It’s bad. Really bad. The whole experience was awful. If it weren’t for you, I would have immediately uninstalled this app and cursed out its boss.]
’Sorry... we didn’t expect this to happen either.’
[How could this be your fault? You’re just in charge of the live stream. The boss is the one to blame for this.]
The young lady was currently studying finance for nobles, and her curriculum included how to be a good boss.
[A leader needs to think of everything in advance! Juju, you’re so popular, the boss should have planned for this! The boss should apologize to all of us who watched the stream!]
