Gossip: 'Tanmao', Project Lead of 'Aether Gazer' Successor Title, Let Go and Now Seeking Employment

Recently, major drama has erupted in the Chinese ACG mobile game community regarding 'Tanmao', the former project lead for the game 'Millennium Journey'. He was reportedly fired following a massive backlash over the game's plot, which earned it the mocking nickname 'Millennium Green' (a slang term implying infidelity).

Rumors suggest that while Tanmao served as the lead, he was also responsible for HR-related hiring of programmers and testers. The game's launch was a technical disaster, with developers working extreme overtime to fix critical bugs. A new leader, 'Wu', has taken over, and after a brief stint in the art department, Tanmao has been officially let go.

The community reaction is mixed. While some credit him with the game's initial combat framework, many criticize his 'Literary Youth' syndrome (a derogatory term for developers prioritizing personal artistic ego over player experience) and poor hiring choices. Some players are even joking about which company he will 'haunt' next, calling him the 'Master of Cringe-worthy Statements'.
