Chapter 231 The Split of Actoz

Zhang Lexing and Park Guanhao had a heated discussion around "Dragon" over coffee and a few napkins. Park Guanhao was in a very excited mood. It is rare for someone to understand him like this today. Many things he has considered but not yet thoroughly come from Zhang Lexing Zhang Lexing was also very happy to get a perfect answer. He was just talking about "Legend 2", which of course is more complete than the so-called "Dragon" now.

After talking for about 30 minutes, Zhang Lexing felt that the time was almost up, so he said, "Mr. Park, it's getting late, why don't we go have a meal together."

Park Guanhao raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was already one o'clock in the afternoon. He suddenly remembered that he had promised to treat those colleagues. It seems that he will have to wait and see.Thinking of this, he shook his head and said, "No, I promised to treat my colleagues to dinner, so I'll have a look later. Mr. Zhang, it seems that we can only do it next time."

"That's a pity, Mr. Park, let's talk about "Dragon" another day." Zhang Lexing turned to Park Meixi who was standing next to him, and said, "Miss Park, please give Mr. Park a ride."

Park Mi-hee nodded, then turned to Park Wan-ho, made a gesture of please, and said, "Mr. Guan-ho, please!"

Park Guanhao first accused Zhang Lexing, then stood up, and followed Park Meixi to the outside of the cafe...

When Park Meixi sent Park Guanhao back, Zhang Lexing stood up and clapped his hands, and said to the entourage: "Everyone has worked hard, I will treat you to a big meal at noon today, Mengyao, you and Meixi are going to find a place, choose a place with a good environment, good service, and more The important thing is where the taste is good..."

Everyone cheered, and even the usually unsmiling bodyguards had relaxed smiles on their faces...

Park Wan-ho left the cafe and hurried to the Korean restaurant not far away.When he arrived, the group of people who came first had almost eaten.Pu Guanhao looked at the table with messy cups and plates, and looked at the people who were still working hard. He suddenly found that there seemed to be one person missing.

"Well, where is Jaehyuk?" Park Wan-ho asked Jiang Chengjun beside him.

Jiang Chengjun swallowed the barbecue in his mouth, then shook his head and said: "Jaehyuk, I don't know, he was still there when he first came here, I don't know when he didn't see anyone, but he should be so big. will get lost."

Park Guanhao smiled and shook his head, picked up the tableware that was just delivered on the table, and began to sweep up the little food left on the table...

Barely filling his stomach, Park Guanhao took out his wallet to pay the bill, and everyone went to the company together.Along the way, Park Guan-ho was very excited. The problem of how to modify "Dragon" that has troubled him for a long time has been solved. He believes that "Dragon" will definitely become the most popular online game in Korea.

Take the elevator back to the 8th floor where the company is located. As soon as Park Guanhao entered the door, he heard Jiang Yuner's voice: "Mr. Guanhao, the president asks you to go to his office immediately."

"Miss Yun'er, do you know what the president wants from me?" Park Wan-ho asked.

"I don't know about this." Jiang Yun'er replied with a smile on her face.

Park Guan-ho didn't know the situation for a while, but he just planned to communicate with the president about the modification of "Dragon". Although he originally planned to think it over carefully, since the president asked him, he just took the opportunity to mention it .

A few steps to the outside of the president, Park Guanhao took a deep breath, knocked on the door, and there was a "come in" from inside, Park Guanhao turned the doorknob, pushed the door and walked into the president's room.

"President, what do you need from me?" Park Guanhao asked excitedly.

"Oh, Guan Hao, your game development department has been very busy recently, and you rarely have time to rest. It's really hard work." Cui Xiong said with a smile on his face.

"Where, this is also our duty." Park Guanhao remembered his purpose of coming, so he planned to express his opinion on the revision of "Dragon": "President, "Dragon"..."

Unexpectedly, Park Wan-ho was interrupted by Cui Xiong just after he said a few words: "Guan-ho, I know that your game development department is indeed very busy, and you also have a heavy burden, so the company decided to arrange it in the game development department. A deputy minister can help you handle some daily affairs, reduce the pressure of work, and you can also have more time to rest. In the future, your work will mainly focus on the overall situation, and the specific management work can be handed over to the deputy minister deal with……"

Looking at Cui Xiong's squirming lips, Park Guanhao no longer had the initial joy. He just felt as if someone had poured a basin of cold water on his head. He couldn't figure it out. If there is no change, I, the head of the game development department, will become a castle in the air.But Park Guanhao didn't dare to ask. He knew that Cui Xiong was definitely a man of his word in the company. Even a minister like him couldn't object to Cui Xiong's decision. Even if he asked, would Cui Xiong say it? ?Up until now, Park Guanhao had no other choice but to nod indiscriminately, staying until Cui Xiong finished speaking, and then he walked out in a daze.

Seeing Park Guanhao turn around and leave without even saying goodbye, Cui Xiong felt even more disgusted in his heart, and couldn't help but snorted coldly at the disappearing back of Park Guanhao...

Back in the game development department, a chubby man with a round face stood up to Park Guanhao, stretched out his hand, and said with a smile on his face: "Minister Park Guanhao, I am your new deputy, and my name is Cui Zhifeng!"

Park Guanhao looked at the round face swaying in front of him, and felt a surge of disgust in his heart, but his daily self-cultivation still allowed him to control it, and he shook hands with Cui Zhifeng in front of him: "Vice Minister Cui Zhifeng, the important task of the game development department will be I'm relying on you."

"Where is the game development department? Director Park is in charge. I'm just helping you." Cui Zhifeng smiled modestly.

But Cui Zhifeng's smile fell into Park Guanhao's eyes, but it seemed very hypocritical, and he hated the one in front of him even more...

Starting from this afternoon, everyone in the game development department found that the company's wind direction had changed inexplicably. But Minister Park Wan-ho was transferred to a small office, saying that he was in charge of overall work.Most of the staff in the game development department were brought into the company by Park Wan-ho. Hearing that his boss had been transferred, these people immediately quit. The impulsive Jiang Chengjun couldn't help but ran to the president's office to ask for an explanation. As a result, Jiang Chengjun was directly expelled by Cui Xiong who became angry.Moreover, Cui Xiong also believed that the reason why the people in the game development department made troubles was that Park Wan-ho was playing tricks behind his back, and wanted to use this to put pressure on the company.

"Park Guanhao," Cui Xiong muttered indignantly, "you think I will give in if you make such a fuss, hmph, at worst, you will be expelled, I don't believe it, Korea can't find anyone else who can develop "Dragon" .”

Neither of the two parties wanted to give in, and as a result, even the development of "Dragon" was forced to suspend, which further confirmed Cui Xiong's doubts about Park Guanhao.In fact, Park Wan-ho didn't want to make the matter so big. Although he was very unhappy with Cui Xiong's decision, he didn't want "Dragon" to be developed, but unfortunately he was already in trouble.

Because one day when he was off work, Park Guanhao met Zhang Lexing's car downstairs. Although he was in a bad mood, he still greeted Zhang Lexing out of politeness. After giving it to him, Park Guanhao opened the envelope and looked at it, and found that there were indeed folded manuscripts inside, so he readily accepted it, but it was such a coincidence that this scene happened to be seen by Cui Xiong who came downstairs.So Cui Xiong completely dispelled his doubts about Park Guanhao. He was already sure that the insider was Park Guanhao.Even Park Guanhao himself felt that something was wrong, but no matter how he explained to Cui Xiong afterwards, it had no effect, so he had no choice but to give up and stay in his small office, muddling along every day.

Zhang Lexing listened to Li Chengxu's report on the situation in the office of Asia Interactive Korea Company. When he learned that the Actoz company had become a mess, and even "Dragon" (Legend 1) had been shut down, he felt overwhelmed, but On the surface, he still looked normal and ordered Li Chengxu to contact Actoz's development team at the right time and try to recruit them.

Unexpectedly, this opportunity came so quickly. It was only ten days since Zhang Lexing visited Actoz, and Cui Xiong and Park Guanhao had reached the point of a complete break.Park Guan-ho and most of the staff in the game development department submitted their resignations together, and Cui Xiong agreed to all of them. Perhaps in his heart, he still regarded the behavior of Park Guan-ho and others as a kind of threat, but Cui Xiong is not a fuel-efficient lamp, although he agreed The resignation of Park Guanhao and others, but because of the non-competition clause in the contract, Park Guanhao and others are required not to enter the online game development industry within five years. This is like a bolt from the blue to Park Guanhao and others, but there is nothing they can do.

Just when Park Guanhao and others were desperate, the olive branch of Asia Interaction extended over. Maybe it was out of livelihood or revenge against Cui Xiong. Park Guanhao and others joined Asia Interaction, even Jiang Chengjun who was expelled before , forming an independent Wemade game development studio, Asia Interactive owns 65% of the ownership.However, due to the non-compete relationship, Wemade game development studio cannot enter the online game industry, but it happens that Asia Interactive has many games that need Korean localization, including many games recommended by domestic Fengyun Interactive, so Wemade Games After adding a certain amount of manpower, the development studio became a game Koreanization company under Asia Interactive.

After such a big personnel change, it took Actoz two full months to find enough manpower to re-establish the game development department. However, the development progress of "Dragon", which was given high expectations, has not been able to speed up. Due to the large number of people, although the new group of people has some experience, they cannot immediately grasp the overall situation. Cui Xiong found sadly that the development of "Dragon" may not be possible until the end of next year or the beginning of the year Completed, his original game promotion plan had to be readjusted.

During this period, Asia Interactive did not focus on the two companies NCSoft and Actoz, and took advantage of the great opportunity of the economic downturn and monetary tightening to go through all the game development companies with certain strength in Korea. At the same time, they are vigorously developing channel providers, and even infiltrating Internet cafes that are emerging. In short, it is to use this period of time to suppress the original ability of Korean games and network the best game developers as much as possible. For your own use, take advantage of the fact that South Korea’s game protection policy has not yet been issued, establish Asia Interactive’s dominant position in South Korea as soon as possible, control the game development technology with one hand, and control the game sales channels with one hand, so as to firmly control the game market in South Korea. Asian interactive hands.

On this opportune time, Asia Interactive was not the only one who rushed to South Korea to search. The entire Oriental Industrial Group was mobilized. They appeared in all places from Southeast Asia to East Asia that were strongly affected by the financial turmoil. They bought a company at an extremely low price. Targets such as factories, research institutes, and companies that are in financial crisis during the period, all those that can be used by their own companies, such as fabs, microelectronics research institutes, software companies, etc., will be merged into the group through integration and adjustment, and those that are not used, such as Iron and steel plants, paper companies, etc., all resell them for profit through reorganization, spin-off and other means.Among the cheap pickers, there is also the VisualSystem Group. Their goals are relatively simple, that is, small and medium-sized companies with important patents in Asia and IT technology-related research institutes.

Oriental Industrial Group and VisualSystem Group focused on RB, because the RB economy, which had been in a downturn since 90, had just started to improve, and was hit by the financial crisis. The economy fell to the bottom again, and a large number of companies went bankrupt or were on the verge of Bankruptcy, such as the case of a toy company that just rejected the merger plan in the first half of the year.
