Chapter 195: The Legend of You Still Exists in the Jianghu
"300 units?" Everyone was shocked.
This is a big deal.
Cheng Yi smiled and said, "If the test goes well, half of the computers in Momo Internet Cafe will start using the new system!"
Yu Sen said, "I think it's better not to rush things. We need to negotiate with each of the popular online games and emerging software companies first. If we want to use their software and games in our system, we need them to create a new version and submit it to our backend for review. This is the most difficult part."
"There's no need to proactively negotiate. Once we have more users, they'll naturally come to us and talk." Cheng Yi chuckled, "Besides, in the next couple of days, there's an online game that's about to be publicly tested that's actively adapting to our system."
"One online game shouldn't be enough, right?" Yu Sen asked doubtfully.
"That's enough! This game is enough to replace ten!" Cheng Yi said with a smile, "But this game is sold through an overseas agent, and the source code is very rough. We need to modify and improve it ourselves, and we also need to fix some bugs in the game one by one."
"No problem." Yu Sen smiled and said, "As long as the game has the source code, it will be much simpler. A programmer who has just been in the industry for a year or two can easily modify it."
At this time, Huang Ganping came over and said, "Cheng Yi, I have a suggestion. Please listen to it and see if it is feasible."
"You say." Cheng Yi looked at Huang Ganping with respect.
Huang Ganping said: "If you don't plan to open source this system, then we will form an elite team and, following the example of Microsoft, integrate the operating system business with supporting software projects and PC products. A complete operating system ecosystem is divided into three aspects."
"The first aspect is the upgrade and optimization of the operating system itself."
"The second aspect is the development of supporting software projects."
"The third aspect is hardware matching. If we want to optimize our operating system, we actually need to order hardware, such as chips, which need to be customized according to the needs of our operating system. Although we don't have this capability yet, we need to set up a team to at least optimize the existing hardware to the extreme and make it more compatible with our system."
Yu Sen said, "Old Huang, we have to take it step by step. The investment you mentioned is too huge."
Huang Ganping sighed and said, "I know, but I still can't help but say it."
Cheng Yi smiled and said, "Actually, we can start preparing for the three points Mr. Huang mentioned now."
"Cheng Yi, you have to think carefully. This requires a very large team. The eight of us can't accomplish these three aspects." Yu Sen advised: "Even if we just set up the framework, I estimate that we will need a team of 100 people."
Looking across the country, I'm afraid that only China Software Group has a software development team of this size with 100 people.
In this era, 95% of programmers are making quick money by building websites, and very few of them can really settle down to do software development.
Cheng Yi smiled and said, "I have a way to quickly build a team without spending too much money, but it requires the eight teachers to suffer."
Yu Sen looked at Cheng Yi with a wary look on his face and said, "What are you planning now, kid?"
Huang Ganping said, "As long as we can build the team, just give us your orders. We are all your employees now, so you don't have to be polite to us."
"Yes, just give the order." Li Tao and others also responded.
Cheng Yi smiled and said, "This is what I think. The School of Computer Science at Handong University has the top computer major in the country. Anyone who can get into the School of Computer Science is considered an elite, even if they can't be called a genius."
"I think those senior students can be utilized."
"Given the prestige of these eight professors in the IT industry, they would still line up outside the lab even if they weren't paid."
Huang Ganping nodded slowly and said, "We don't mind. The question is whether they will agree. We have been out of the IT industry for many years."
"Yes, a few years ago, I would have had this confidence, but now..." Ruan Yingzhuo smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Cheng Yi laughed and said, "Eight teachers, please don't underestimate yourselves. Although you have retired from the martial arts world, your legends are still there. If you don't mind the trouble, let me handle this matter."
"No problem, just arrange it." Huang Ganping said, "It would be great if we could train a group of students while our brains haven't degenerated yet."
Cheng Yi continued, "Also, I've built a software R&D center at Jingzhou Vocational College. We've recruited over a hundred students who are about to enter or have already entered their internships. Although it's a vocational college, they have a good foundation in their majors, and many of them are from Mr. Yu's training class. I need two teachers to lead the team to develop supporting software projects."
"I'll go."
"And me." He Xu and Zhou Hui volunteered.
He Xu and Zhou Hui are a few years younger than Yu Sen and others. They are in their prime, 34 and 35 years old respectively. They graduated from Zhonghai Jiaotong University and Nanzhe University.
"He Xu and Zhou Hui are very suitable, as they both majored in software development." Huang Ganping said with a smile.
"Okay, then Mr. He and Mr. Zhou will serve as senior consultants for the Software Development Center, overseeing all the affairs of the Software Development Center." Cheng Yi said, "I'll notify them to tidy up the office later."
"Teacher Yu will still be in charge of the operating system team, and Teacher Huang will lead the hardware optimization team." Cheng Yi said, "You can do the staffing yourself. I will start recruiting programmers for you tomorrow."
"No problem." Yu Sen and Huang Ganping had no objection.
After arranging these things, Cheng Yi ran back to Momo Internet Cafe to get all the CDs of stand-alone games such as Red Alert, Empire, and StarCraft and handed them to Yu Sen.
These stand-alone games can be modified at will without any cooperation from the game developers.
After leaving the laboratory, Cheng Yi immediately called Lin Shengjie.
"Cheng Yi, is there something wrong?" Lin Shengjie's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Assistant Lin, our teacher Yu and his colleagues have always felt that living in the school's apartments for free isn't a good idea, so they've discussed it and are planning to help the school support some of the senior computer science students who are about to start their internships."
"Really?" Lin Shengjie's originally calm tone suddenly became excited.
If the senior students of their school could participate in the development project of Yu Sen and others, the speed of progress would definitely be like riding a rocket.
You know, Yu Sen and his eight companions are national treasure-level programmers. Even Academician Feng Hongmo is trying hard to win them over.
In the field of programmers, having someone to guide you and having no one to guide you are two completely different concepts.
Lin Shengjie asked excitedly, "How many people can we arrange?"
"Thirty people should be no problem, but more than that won't work." Cheng Yi said, "The teachers are also very tired."
"Thirty people? Okay, I'll report to the principal right away." Lin Shengjie said and hung up the phone.
Get it!
Cheng Yi was not surprised by this result. The reason why he did not say too much was that he wanted to create an atmosphere where scarcity makes things valuable.
Anyway, we don’t need so many people now, so just take it slowly. The fewer people we need, the more elite those who come will be.
If Momo Group had already reached a peak before these people graduated, they would naturally become internal employees. "It's time to contact Shengda." Cheng Yi started the pedal Mulan and then called Luo Shenyi, the deputy general manager of Shengda.
"Boss Cheng, you finally contacted me." As soon as the call was connected, Luo Shenyi complained, "I thought you'd changed your mind. The public beta of our game is coming up soon. How are your preparations going?"
Cheng Yi smiled and said, "You can come over now to verify the authenticity of the system. Bring the contract with you and we'll get everything done in one go."
Luo Shenyi said, "Okay, I'll be there on time tomorrow afternoon. Boss Cheng, let me confirm with you again. We will create a new version based on your operating system. This version will only run on your system. If you breach this agreement, we will pursue legal action against you and require you to compensate our company for all losses."
"Don't worry." Cheng Yi said, "Just come directly to Handong University after you get here."
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yi rode his bike to the cafeteria.
After going through so many places this morning and eating too little for breakfast, my stomach is already growling with hunger.
He rode his beloved little motorcycle and soon arrived near the cafeteria.
It was lunchtime, and a large number of students were rushing into the cafeteria. Cheng Yi found a place to park his bike. Just as he took off his helmet, he heard a familiar voice from behind him: "Cheng Yi!"
Cheng Yi turned around with some confusion, and saw Song Meng in a floral dress looking at him angrily not far away.
There were three other girls beside Song Meng, all of whom looked at Cheng Yi with strange eyes.
Cheng Yi frowned slightly and said, "What's the matter?"
Song Meng came over angrily and asked rudely, "How long are you going to hide from me?"
"When did I hide from you?" Cheng Yi asked helplessly.
Song Meng snorted, "I've been to your dormitory looking for you several times. If you're not hiding from me, why don't you come out to see me?"
"I've just arrived at the dormitory a few days ago." Cheng Yi said in a flat tone.
Song Meng stared at Cheng Yi and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. Cheng Yi, can we talk now?"
"What do you want to talk about?" Cheng Yi said, "Do you want me to help you with your student loan?"
Song Meng explained, "So this is why you're upset with me! Cheng Yi, I was just joking with you about the student loan. How could I possibly let you help me shoulder the student loan? I just wanted to test whether you were sincere to me."
"Test me? Song Meng, listen carefully, in this world, only the country and the people are qualified to test me." Cheng Yi sneered: "Do you have anything else to say?"
Song Meng blushed and gritted her teeth, saying, "Are you really unwilling to forgive me?"
"Forgive?" Cheng Yi sneered in his heart. He really wanted to point at Song Meng's nose and curse her with all the words he wanted to curse her with in his previous life.
But thinking that Song Meng is not yet at the age where he can be so bad, he is too lazy to talk nonsense anymore.
"Don't bother me anymore. You walk your way and I walk my way." Cheng Yi said this and walked towards the cafeteria.
Looking at Cheng Yi's back, the always proud Song Meng couldn't help but clench her fists.
"Song Meng, is he the Cheng Yi you mentioned?"
"I can't believe he's so aloof despite his ordinary appearance."
"How can a man like this be worthy of you?" Song Meng's three roommates came over and advised.
Song Meng gritted her teeth and said, "I must win his heart back."
"Song Meng, are you afraid that no one will pursue you? With your talent and looks, wouldn't the boys in our School of Arts be lining up to pursue you?" A roommate said with some envy.
Song Meng's eyes flashed with hatred, and she shook her head and said, "I've never been treated like this since I was a child! I want to win his heart back, and then dump him! I must make him taste the feeling of being dumped!"
"A-choo!" Cheng Yi couldn't help but sneeze as soon as he entered the cafeteria. He rubbed his nose and cursed, "Damn it, it must be that bitch Song Meng scolding me."
It was the peak meal time and all the seats on floors 1 to 4 of the cafeteria were full. Cheng Yi had no choice but to order a bowl of tomato and egg noodles and take it back to the dormitory.
In the dormitory, Fei Zhengyu and his friends were sitting around the table eating two roast ducks. When they saw Cheng Yi coming back, Fei Zhengyu immediately said, "Cheng Yi, you're back just in time. Come and try some authentic Yanjing roast duck!"
Cheng Yi went over and tore off a piece of duck breast. While eating, he laughed and said, "Isn't your life a bit too extravagant?"
Meng Gang laughed and said, "This roast duck restaurant is the only store in our school that offers points. Fei Zhengyu is crazy about points now."
Fei Zhengyu's mouth was full of oil as he ate. He said, "It's all because our External Relations Department is so incompetent. We only managed to get a roast duck restaurant."
Cheng Yi said: "It's great to be able to negotiate with the next company. They are already on campus. Whether they negotiate or not, they are targeting all college students. This kind of specialized business does not require any concessions."
Fei Zhengyu laughed and said, "You are right. Now that I think about it, this roast duck restaurant owner is really an idiot, haha."
For four young men full of vigor and vitality, they could not keep two roast ducks for long. After more than ten minutes, they had already eaten the two roast ducks.
After eating and drinking, they began to choose clothes for the class meeting.
Because it was the first class meeting, Meng Gang and the others took it very seriously. The three grown men all changed into what they thought were their most handsome clothes, as if they were going to be best men.
However, the handsome clothes in their eyes were just four words to Cheng Yi: tacky.
By the time the three of them finished changing their clothes, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
Led by Meng Gang, the four of them came to classroom 102 in the teaching building. There were already thirty or forty people sitting in the classroom. When they saw Meng Gang and the others come in, many people's eyes were focused on Cheng Yi.
Except for Wang Ping and Yang Lei, everyone else looked at Cheng Yi with doubts in their eyes.
"Hello, my name is Miao Jin." At this time, a boy wearing gold-rimmed glasses blocked Cheng Yi's way and said with a smile: "Are you Cheng Yi, the classmate in our class who didn't participate in the military training?"
Cheng Yi asked with a straight face, "What's wrong?"
Cheng Yi's attitude made Miao Jin a little angry. He laughed and said, "It's nothing. I just wanted to tell you that military training is the first memory of our youth in college. If you can participate in military training, try to come, even if it's just to cheer us on. This is also a reflection of the class's collective sense of honor."
Cheng Yi frowned and asked, "Do you live by the sea?"
"No." Miao Jin was stunned: "Why do you ask?"
"Since your family doesn't live by the sea, why do you care so much?"
