The film and television city starts from the courtyard

Chapter 2260 An unexpected start but a tail end

The next day.

When Zhao Shucheng was dating Zhao Erxi, he mentioned what happened when he attended the party with Meng Yiran yesterday.

Zhao Erxi was just a little jealous at first, but when he heard that it was related to Bei Weiwei, and even that Zhenyi Technology's young master Zhen Shaoxiang had once been Bei Weiwei's partner in the game, he finally understood why Zhenyi Technology had called him separately after rejecting their internship.

It turned out that she had borrowed Bei Weiwei's game account during the interview, so Zhen Shaoxiang mistook her for Lu Weiwei and invited her to Zhenyi Technology. She felt lucky that she didn't go, otherwise it would be very embarrassing. Because all this was not because of her ability, but because of Bei Weiwei.

"Is that the end of it?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Of course not. Don't forget, Zhen Shaoxiang once asked to meet Bei Weiwei offline, but was rejected before, so he canceled the chivalrous couple and chose someone else. But after seeing Bei Weiwei in person this time and finding out that she is so beautiful, do you think you can accept it?"

"It looks like Weiwei is going to have a headache. Xiao Nai is a jealous person, so he's going to keep a close eye on Weiwei, isn't he?"

"It depends on Zhen Shaoxiang's next move. If he takes the initiative to pursue her, Xiao Nai might take action."

In fact, Zhao Shucheng knew very well that although Zhen Shaoxiang had taken some actions, they would not cause any trouble to Xiao Nai and Bei Weiwei. Because in the original plot, after he knew that Xiao Nai and Bei Weiwei were together, he just found Bei Weiwei and belittled Xiao Nai. After being retorted by Bei Weiwei, he directly joined the company's game design team, and was determined to defeat Xiao Nai and prove himself, but he did not think about pursuing Bei Weiwei.

If he follows the routine of a domineering CEO novel, Zhen Shaoxiang might stage a belated and affectionate pursuit of his wife, pursuing Bei Weiwei in various ways, and even using Zhenyi Technology to actively suppress Xiao Nai's company and so on.

Unfortunately, Zhen Shaoxiang is not a domineering boss. He was just a rich second-generation who lived a life of idleness and waiting for death. Even if he wanted to defeat Xiao Nai, he only wanted to start with game development.

So when Zhen Shaoxiang really met with Bei Weiwei and belittled Xiao Nai, he was refuted by Bei Weiwei, who even felt that Xiao Nai was at least the company's supervisor and chief planner, while Zhen Shaoxiang was just a mascot in the company, which made him want to compete with Xiao Nai.

He went straight to his father and asked to join the development team of New Legend of Mir. Father Zhen felt a little strange, wondering when his son became so concerned about the company's affairs.

Zhen Shaoxiang naturally couldn't tell his father the truth. He just claimed that he was also a hardcore player of the A Chinese Ghost Story game, and was even at the top of the leaderboard. There should be no one in the company who knew the game better than him, so with his help, the company team would be able to defeat Xiao Nai.

However, when she actually went to the development team and saw the game sample, she was immediately disappointed. After all, this sample was not attractive to her at all, let alone attracting more players. The character modeling was mediocre, the skills were vague, the scenes were rough, and there was no new creativity at all. It was completely impossible to tell that this was a carefully developed game, nor did it look like a product of a large company like Zhenyi Technology. Instead, it was similar to those shoddy games.

Naturally, he was unwilling to lose to Xiao Nai so easily, so he asked the company staff to work overtime to modify the sample according to his opinions, and even offered five times the overtime pay.

Zhao Shucheng didn't know that Zhen Shaoxiang had already competed with Xiao Nai, and he had been very relaxed during this period. His two girlfriends took turns dating him, and the company's game development was also progressing steadily. In order not to delay the progress of game development and Zhang Kun's studies, Zhao Shucheng even hired a lot of game developers, rented a new office, and concentrated on completing the game development and launching it online as soon as possible.

On the weekend, Zhao Shucheng brought Zhang Kun, Bei Weiwei and others to the new office. Seeing the company that had begun to take shape, he couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

When Zhang Kun and others saw that the company already had dozens of people, they immediately became motivated and felt that they could definitely make something of a career.

However, when Bei Weiwei saw that Zhao Shucheng's company was hiring so many people to develop games at once, and thought that Xiao Nai's company still had only a dozen people, she suddenly became a little worried about Xiao Nai.

After all, she knew that the September sample demonstration meeting agreed with Fengteng Group was suddenly moved forward to September 1st, and Xiao Nai and his team only had ten days, which was very stressful for them.

If Xiao Nai and his team had as many people as Zhao Shucheng's company, the pressure might be less, and they wouldn't have to sleep in the company all the time in order to catch up with the progress.

Zhao Shucheng couldn't help but laugh when he heard Bei Weiwei's words. He felt that Bei Weiwei's thinking was too simple. Even if there were so many people in his company, if there was an emergency, they would still have to work overtime, or even sleep in the company.

However, Zhao Shucheng is different from Xiao Nai in developing the game from scratch. He has plug-ins, so he has a thorough analysis of the game, even down to the exact workload of each person every day. He also reserves enough time, so there will basically be no emergencies that catch them off guard.

Xiao Nai's Zhiyi Technology and Zhenyi Technology both targeted Fengteng Group's new Qiannu development. They also knew that the demonstration would be brought forward to September 1st, so they began to work hard.

Meng Yiran also found out by chance that his cousin had suddenly become a workaholic, staying in the company until very late every day before going home, and sometimes even living directly in the company.

She was immediately curious, so she went to the company's office to check it out. When she learned that Zhen Shaoxiang was trying to defeat Xiao Nai in a fair and square manner, she found that game design was interesting and that she had found something she liked to do. She couldn't help but be happy for her cousin.

Actually, Xiao Nai was a stranger to her now, but she didn't mind her cousin teaching Xiao Nai a lesson, because Xiao Nai was a little arrogant. Ten days later, the time for Fengteng Group's demonstration came. Zhenyi Technology was the first to start the demonstration. The idea he proposed was still reasonable. Players were attracted to a game, not really keen on endless repetitive battles and endless upgrades. Even if they found it interesting at the beginning, they would always get tired after playing for a long time. So a game must be attractive, and more importantly, the interaction and feelings between people. So their game added an interactive system, bringing everyone more complex and interesting love systems, family systems, sworn brotherhood systems, and even 100-person team tasks, etc.

After the demonstration of Zhenyi Technology was over, the others applauded, thinking that Zhenyi Technology still had something. However, when Xiao Nai and others were about to die with the demonstration, at the most critical moment, it showed that it could not connect to the server.

  Mr. Li of Zhenyi Technology even questioned that when Fengteng Company provided the same server, Zhenyi Technology could connect to the game, but Zhiyi Technology could not. Shouldn't there be something wrong with the game itself?

However, Fengteng did not listen to one side and asked employees to check the computer room. They finally determined that the server they provided was suddenly shut down, and it would take at least half an hour to restart. However, Mr. Feng of their company had to fly abroad, so he could only stay here for 45 minutes at most.

When the other people at the scene heard that President Feng was leaving and there was no time to wait for Xiao Nai and the others to start over, they suggested directly choosing Zhenyi Technology's game. After all, it seemed pretty good at the moment.

Xiao Nai had already made a plan for this. After all, Zhenyi Technology would not really bid with them honestly, and they often resorted to shady tactics. So he directly asked Hao Mei to connect to the mirror server so that he could continue the demonstration.

When someone raised doubts, they even asked to hand over the remote login account of the mirror server to Mr. Feng so that he could check the various parameters of the game server at any time to ensure that there was no fraud.

Of course Xiao Nai would not refuse. He even felt that this was a good opportunity to let others understand his design concept. It could even be considered as the biggest bargaining chip to win the new Qiannu.

As expected, after the game demonstration, Xiao Nai and his team received great praise from Feng Zhong, and the game captured the hearts of many people. After a brief discussion, he decided to sign a contract with Xiao Nai and his team after he returned.

Zhen Shaoxiang didn't expect that the sample developed by Xiao Nai was so much better than his own, but he was convinced of his defeat and admitted that he was indeed inferior to his opponent this time. So instead of complaining here, he might as well go back and work harder to make a better game to defeat Zhiyi Technology.

Unfortunately, it was only when he overheard the phone call between Mr. Li and his father that he realized that their company had done so many shady things without his knowledge.

Zhao Shucheng also knew the results of Xiao Nai's demonstration with Zhenyi Technology, and was not too surprised. Although Zhen Shaoxiang wanted to develop the game well, he didn't know that the employees in his company might not have the same idea.

Zhenyi Technology has actually gone astray. They are used to playing dirty tricks on their competitors, absorbing other companies, and poaching people, but they have ignored the most important thing in game development, innovation. Although they have absorbed many companies, they have driven away those meritorious veterans who were originally full of creativity. Those who can go to their company are all profit-seeking people without faith.

Although these people can copy the products developed by the original company, it is extremely difficult for them to develop games on their own. Moreover, Zhenyi Technology cannot really trust such traitors. They are often reused during game development, but after the development is completed, they are discarded, which leads to the loss of more talents.

Zhenyi Technology only looks strong, but in fact, it has had problems internally for a long time. Its own game development level is not high, so it can only swallow up other game companies, but it does not know that all this is just drinking poison to quench thirst.

Zhang Kun and others also learned from Bei Weiwei how thrilling the demonstration was, especially after they learned that Zhenyi Technology had secretly shut down Xiao Nai and his team's server. If Xiao Nai had not been prepared, he would have been defeated miserably. They couldn't help but start to worry about the problems their company's game would face after it went on the market.

Zhao Shucheng heard the conversation between Zhang Kun and others and couldn't help but said with a smile: "You don't have to worry so much. We are developing our own game this time, so we won't encounter any competitors, and there is no possibility of shutting down the server."

Moreover, Zhao Shucheng knew very well that this game had been tested in practice, so there was no need to worry about any problems. Moreover, Zhao Shucheng did not intend to let his company operate the game alone, but instead planned to find a large company to cooperate and operate together to ensure that the game would not encounter any problems.

  In fact, this is easy to understand. Although small companies can develop games independently, operating games is not just about renting servers. There are also many other problems. The most basic one is what to do if the server is attacked?

Large companies have been operating games for many years and have more experience, so their game servers have very good firewalls and are basically impossible to be maliciously attacked. On the contrary, if small companies buy servers to operate games themselves, they may be attacked by others because of jealousy. Even if they take precautions in advance and buy anti-virus software, they still need employees to maintain it in real time when facing hacker intrusions, but they don’t know that this will increase costs invisibly. If they encounter an expert, the game will crash directly, which is not good. Large companies don’t have this concern. After all, their own technical level is top-notch, and they can defend or even fight back when they encounter intrusions.

Not long after, Zhao Shucheng met with Fengteng Company, showed them the game, and signed a cooperation agreement. After the game was launched, it quickly gained popularity after being recommended and promoted by Fengteng Company. Although some people complained that only the first few levels of the game were free and the later levels required payment, it did not stop the enthusiasm of players.

In fact, Zhao Shucheng didn't want to charge for this, but the profit model of this game is different from other games. There are not many profit points. It is impossible to let players buy skins or props and equipment like other online games, so at the beginning he can only sell genuine game copyrights and charge for them.

However, Zhao Shucheng plans to adopt the real-life zombie war as the profit model, setting up various props and equipment and upgrade options to provide consumer choices. Of course, he can also use product placement to make profits, but this is also an option that will be chosen after a long time.

Time passed quickly, and it was two years later.

Zhao Shucheng and his friends are finally graduating. In fact, in the past two years, Zhao Shucheng has maintained his relationship with Meng Yiran and Zhao Erxi, and has always been the center of gossip on campus. Everyone is speculating about the relationship between them, but it has never been said by the parties involved.

After taking graduation photos and moving out of the school, Zhao Shucheng and Zhao Erxi officially started living together. Meng Yiran secretly joined their lives because their villa was right next door to Zhao Shucheng's.

Of course, Meng Yiran and Zhao Erxi both knew very well that Zhao Shucheng would not have only two girlfriends. For example, there was some unclear relationship between Xia Qing, the junior, and Zhao Shucheng.

However, Zhao Shucheng could no longer care about so many things. After completing his three connections, before he could get Xia Qing, he was teleported away by the system. He could only bid farewell with regret to this world that seemed to be a bit anticlimactic.
