"Insider" leaks getting debunked in real-time — NGA might just be the internet's best anti-fraud unit. One self-proclaimed insider swore that GFL2 Exilium is printing money, but the entire comment section collectively burst out laughing.
It all started with a screenshot. The OP reposted claims from a so-called "uncle" (舅舅, jiùjiu — Chinese internet slang for anonymous industry insiders who drop supposed leaks). The gist: Sunborn's GFL2 Exilium is supposedly raking in revenue, already profitable during its beta phase, with a staggering 9x PC platform revenue multiplier. The leak also claimed Tencent dropped a cool 1 billion RMB in investment and that Sunborn CEO Yu Zhong (羽中) is "very satisfied." The OP's own take? "If Commander Quartz's bedtime stories were at least entertaining, this one just leaves me scratching my head... a 9x PC coefficient? I can't buy any of it."
The comment section came out swinging immediately. Reply #1 dropped the classic deadpan sarcasm: "I'm his friend, I can confirm — Yu Zhong is very satisfied with the revenue." Reply #2 piled on: "Classic Yu Zhong being satisfied. Saw the post-launch numbers and said they made bank. What a pro." Even Reply #3 joined in: "Big bro Yu Zhong is so satisfied, he's brushing his teeth in the bathroom with Sister Xing (星姐)" — a reference to the game's controversial character, used here to mock the leak's credibility.
But what really killed the leak's credibility was Reply #6's devastating chain of logic bombs: "If they really made money during beta, why would they hire STN (a popular gaming commentary channel) for sponsored content? Why delay the launch from October to December? Why keep secretly rewriting story content and deleting plotlines at 3AM? And why are they now going around begging content creators to make positive coverage?" — These aren't baseless theories; veterans who lived through GFL2's turbulent pre-launch period know every single one of these incidents firsthand.
Reply #7 twisted the knife: "Oh absolutely, Yu Zhong is SO satisfied — then explain the recent streamer sponsorship blitz and the astroturfing campaign from a while back? Wasn't he supposed to be happy?" Reply #8 went straight for the jugular: "Contradiction much? Revenue is great but you're out there fundraising everywhere? Can't afford a Ferrari on your own?"
When the conversation turned to the alleged "10 billion RMB Tencent investment," the comment section went full comedy roast mode. Reply #11 quipped: "10 billion just like that? Uncle Tencent is way too generous." Reply #13 went all-in on the shitpost: "It's true, I was there. Pony Ma (化腾) personally wired the money to Lord Locust (蝗总, a derogatory nickname for Yu Zhong), said 'spend it however you want, there's more where that came from.' The noble Lord Locust was very satisfied."
Reply #16 delivered what might be the most academically devastating takedown, analyzing Yu Zhong's "track record": "If Yu Zhong really made money, he'd have gone full unhinged mode by now. Remember when the Daiyan (黛烟) banner spiked revenue? He immediately ordered the team to revert the half-finished 'Painted Intent' (画意) rework back to the original 'Tuned Strings' (校音) version. Like the wolf of Zhongshan in Dream of the Red Chamber — give him an inch and he takes a mile." Using classical Chinese literature to psychoanalyze a gacha game CEO is peak NGA energy.
Reply #10 also hit from the personality angle: "Use your brain. With Yu Zhong's personality, if he actually made money, would he be acting like this? He'd already be on his soapbox pushing his 'values' everywhere." And Reply #15 went full detective, digging into the insider's post history: "I checked this guy's posts from January 10th — he claimed Yu Zhong and his team just got back from a hot spring trip in Tokyo. Yeah, I'm not buying any of it."
Reply #9 wrapped up the whole circus with peak absurdity: "I AM Yu Zhong. I'm extremely satisfied with the revenue. PC coefficient is 999. Tencent invited me to head their entire gaming division. I genuinely don't understand why anyone would discuss an 'insider' who has zero track record and zero sources."
Looking back at the full thread, the supposed "insider" provided exactly zero concrete evidence, while the community's rebuttals formed a complete logical chain — from business logic (profitable but fundraising?), to operational behavior (making bank but begging for PR coverage?), to character analysis (Yu Zhong would've gone nuclear with ego if the money was real). On NGA, where everyone fancies themselves a detective, a bedtime story without receipts doesn't just fail — it becomes the entertainment itself.
