In the sky of Ningjiang, snowflakes are still flying.

In cold weather, snuggling under the covers is the best option, especially on weekends when you don't have to go to work.

What's more, in this warm quilt, there is still a person hidden, Su Yuhan.

She quietly stretched out her pretty face from the quilt, through the window, she could imagine the chill outside the window, but in the quilt, she could feel the warmth. She really didn't want to get up.

Suddenly, a fiery body hugged her tightly from behind.

"I need to get up. Su Yuhan snorted. She felt a hardness, against her own groin, and thought of the madness of last night, the dry wood and the fire, and her face couldn't help but blush slightly.

Liu Yun's head also came out of the quilt, glanced at the snowflakes outside the window, and said nonchalantly: "This kind of weather is suitable for hiding in the quilt, and then ...... Do things that do with love. ”

Su Yuhan rolled his eyes, and suddenly lifted the entire quilt in one go.

There was no air conditioning in the room, and when the quilt was lifted, a chill rushed in.

Two young bodies, just naked, were exposed to the air.

......

"Yuhan, what are you doing. Liu Yun asked through gritted teeth.

Su Yuhan grabbed the quilt, wrapped it around his body again, and grinned: "Freeze you to death." ”

Liu Yun looked at his girlfriend's naughty demeanor, and was also happy, pulled the quilt over, and got into it again, and the two played together.

After a while, the quilt had been kicked far away, and on the bed, two people were playing with each other naked.

"It's so cold......" Su Yuhan's voice came out softly.

"When you freeze, it's even more emotional. Liu Yun's voice sounded a little out of breath.

……

In such a snowy season, major flights have been suspended.

Liu Yun is also rarely lazy, nesting in Ningjiang, there is no need to go anywhere.

He didn't even go to the company once a few days, so he didn't feel comfortable.

When I turned on the TV, the news was scrolling about the snow disaster in various places.

According to the analysis of the weather forecast, the heavy snow will continue for a few days.

Liu Yun arrived at a cup of hot water and said to his girlfriend: "Your parents, you can't come to Ningjiang these days, right?"

Su Yuhan said helplessly: "On a snowy day, the long-distance bus is not very safe. ”

Liu Yun carried his girlfriend behind his back and nodded silently, but a hint of happiness flashed on his face.

For some reason, Liu Yun was a little reluctant to meet Su Yuhan's parents at this moment.

After all, because of the turmoil of the Golden Melody Awards, the scandal between himself and Tian Fu caused a storm in the city for a while.

"When my parents came over, they wanted to see you. Su Yuhan looked at her boyfriend's back and said suddenly.

Liu Yun turned around, looked out the window, looked at her and said, "When are you coming?"

"Can't wait for the snow. ”

"Oh, that's a few days away. ”

What should be faced, sooner or later, must be faced.

He remembered some memories from the past, Su Yuhan's parents from the initial opposition to the final approval.

In Donghai City, there are some small sporadic projects in the two industrial commercial plazas and resorts of Youyou, and Liu Yun also waved her hand and gave them to her relatives.

That's what Su Mu said at the beginning: Xiaoliu, think about it. These sporadic small projects are not very technical, and even if you don't care about them, your management will secretly subcontract them to your acquaintances.

If you directly go past those management to call the shots, you will cut off the idea of those management making small moves and enriching their own pockets.

Cheap outsiders, it's better to be your own people, don't you say?

In her eyes, Liu Yun and her daughter are almost gone, so her relatives are also her own people for Liu Yun, aren't they?

Liu Yun was a little stunned when she listened to Su Mu's eloquent conversation, and she also felt that she was ...... Seems to make some sense.

Those sporadic small projects, who earns or not.

He retracted his thoughts and said, "Yuhan, when the snow is light, I'll ask the driver to drive to Donghai City to pick up your parents." ”

Su Yuhan tilted his head and thought for a while, then nodded.

……

Guangdong Province, Shencheng, Tencent Office Building

In winter, even at the coldest time, the temperature is generally maintained at about 10°C, far from other areas, and the snow is heavy and it is difficult to travel.

The snow disaster that swept through most parts of China did not affect here.

Brother Xiao Ma made a cup of hot tea, held it in his hand, and looked through the floor-to-ceiling windows to see the prosperity of this southern metropolis.

Although he is full of regret for passing by the hit game "Dungeons & Warriors", he is still very satisfied with Tencent's performance in 2007.

QQ's dominance in instant messaging software has shown an unstoppable trend, and foreign MSN is struggling under QQ's encirclement.

MSN is far less functional than QQ, and the chat interface is not as diverse as QQ, but it also has a stable and loyal user base.

Man is often a very strange animal with a very unique mind. For example, many people like niche things, and there is a saying that describes it like this: because it is niche, so pretending to be forced.

MSN, on the other hand, satisfies the niche mentality of these people, and a small circle of people who claim to be high-end elites like to use MSN. What's more, Tencent's reputation in the industry is not very good.

Brother Xiao Ma is scornful of such a group of people.

With the growth of QQ's user base and the degree of monopoly in the market, the gap between MSN and it will become more and more huge. Sooner or later, they will face the dilemma of ceasing operations, this group of self-righteous petty bourgeoisie, if they have the ability, never use QQ?

Back to the game section that Pony pays the most attention to.

This year, Shanda fell at a rocket-like speed due to the failure of transformation, and in addition to Baidu, several other large Internet companies are fighting wildly on the battlefield of online games.

Today, this market is dominated by Youyou, and Tencent and NetEase are in the second group. These two companies, both in Guangdong Province, regard each other as a thorn in their side.

NetEase has "Fantasy Westward Journey" and "Westward Journey", and their games are better than quality, while Tencent has launched a series of QQ series games because it is tied to QQ for promotion, which is better than quantity.

"One year has turned the world upside down. ”

Brother Pony took the teacup and sat back on the sofa, muttering to himself.

In his vision, Tencent should try to avoid financing and diluting its shares in the future, but the company's development needs a steady stream of financial support, and games are the best way to attract money.

What he was a little puzzled about was why Liu Yun's kid's vision was so accurate, and the game developed by Yoyo or agent, or developed by himself, could be said to be online and popular.

In just one year, Yoyo has sprung up with Liu Yun's precise vision and occupied the largest share of the market.

Brother Xiao Ma even had doubts that Liu Yun's kid was proficient in divination and the like, so he would be so powerful.

Knock knock~ Just as he was drinking tea and was a little distracted, there was a knock on the door outside, which pulled his thoughts back.

The person who came is Tencent Yangcheng R&D Manager, Zhang Xiaolong, who is also famous in the future> and now, his job responsibility is to be fully responsible for and lead the QQ mailbox team.

"Xiaolong, what's the matter?" Brother Xiao Ma glanced at him and smiled.

In recent years, the market share of QQ mailbox has been steadily increasing, but the competitors in the market are still very strong, Yahoo, 163, Sina and so on.

The business of mail has never been the focus of Xiao Ma's eyes.

Although it is not enough to completely ignore its existence, it is not enough to meet the core business of Penguin.

"Mr. Ma, I have something I want to report to you!" Zhang Xiaolong said seriously.

Pony put down his teacup and stood up, ready to return to his seat.

At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door outside, and Brother Xiao Ma couldn't help but be slightly stunned, secretly saying that today is so lively, so many people come to his office at the same time.

The person who came was Ren Yu, the president of Tencent Games and the vice president of the group company.

Ren Yu also saw Zhang Xiaolong, just nodded slightly, and walked in front of Brother Xiaoma.

Brother Xiao Ma glanced at Ren Yu's facial expression, which was very dignified, as if he had something important to report.

Sure enough, Ren Yu sat down in front of Brother Xiao Ma and said: "Mr. Ma, our company's self-developed QQ dazzling dance will be officially launched after the year!"

After hearing this, Brother Xiao Ma gently touched the frame of the glasses, showing excitement, and said, "Prepare well, I believe you can make a beautiful start again." ”

Zhang Xiaolong stood aside a little awkwardly, feeling that he was a little unaccustomed to interjecting or not.

Ren Yu took a deep breath and said, "Mr. Ma, I know who our opponent of QQ Xuanwu is, and I will also formulate a corresponding promotion plan." ”

The popularity of "QQ Speed" continues to expand Tencent's ambitions.

With QQ as a drainage tool, this penguin firmly believes that as long as the quality of the game is passed, it will be able to obtain huge economic returns. For other game manufacturers, advertising and publicity have never been a big problem for Tencent.

Publicity, traffic, advertising, they have it all.

"Mr. Ma, "Go-Kart" and "Audition" have a similar problem, they are both Korean games. ”

Brother Pony picked up the teacup and took a sip, nodding with satisfaction: "You go on." ”

Ren Yu cleared his throat and continued: "Because of the uneven distribution of spoils, the update of the version has been in a state of sluggishness, not to mention that Korean game companies do not understand the psychology of Chinese players.

We're different. I dare to say that the operators of Tencent Games know the hearts of Chinese players best and what they like. What's more, our game will never have the problem of version lag.

The popularity of "QQ Speed" illustrates the problem. ”

Brother Pony lowered his head slightly, falling into a kind of contemplation. All kinds of memories of the past kept flashing through his mind.

The word "imitation" has actually infiltrated into the blood of penguins, such as their "QQ Fantasy", the prototype of which is NetEase's "Fantasy Journey to the West".

But the gap between the two is too huge, perhaps because of NetEase's team's excellent R&D capabilities and the background of the story of Journey to the West.

But Brother Xiao Ma doesn't care, "QQ Fantasy" can at least rely on QQ's drainage to make money for itself.

As for Yoyo's "World of Warcraft", the idea of plagiarism only flashed in Little Pony's mind and then went out. He understands that Tencent's team simply does not have this kind of strength.

Soon, Pony shifted his sights, and he set his sights on the hot competitive games from South Korea.

His choice proved to be wise and forward-looking.

The popularity of "QQ Speed" has gradually replaced the position of "Running Kart" in the market, and now he is ready to repeat his old tricks and set his sights on "Audition", so that the company's R&D team has produced a more sophisticated "QQ Dazzle Dance".

Brother Xiao Ma smiled and said: "Xiao Ren, I believe that "QQ Dazzling Dance" will be as successful as "QQ Speed". ”

Ren Yu also said confidently: "Mr. Ma, I believe that this possibility is very high. ”

Brother Xiao Ma shook his head slightly, stretched out his finger and pointed down, and said, "It's not very likely, but it must be so." ”

Ren Yu reacted, and immediately said, "Yes, yes, it is inevitable." ”

Zhang Xiaolong, who was on the side, had a strange face and said secretly: This time it should be my turn.

He spoke: "Mr. Ma, I ......." ”

Brother Xiao Ma was just about to turn his head to look at Zhang Xiaolong, when Ren Yu spoke again: "Mr. Ma, there is one more thing, which is about the "Tower of Eternity" that is about to be tested internally. ”

Aion!

Brother Xiao Ma smiled: "Xiaolong, you wait a while, sit down on the sofa over there first." ”

Zhang Xiaolong had no choice but to smile wryly and nodded, walked to the sofa and sat down.

"Obviously, I came to Mr. Ma's office first. This mailbox doesn't make much money, and in Mr. Ma's heart, it's far less important than games. ”

He glanced out the window and sighed inwardly.

Although it is now January in the cold winter, Shencheng is still sunny, and his hometown, Shonan Province, is now a vast white snow.

Zhang Xiaolong's heart suddenly missed the beautiful snow scene, and since he came to Yangcheng, he had never enjoyed the snow again.

The conversation between Brother Xiao Ma and Ren Yu was faintly heard in his ears, and both of them seemed very excited.

"Okay, Xiao Ren. We'll follow your plan, and I'm sure this game will be a hit. ”

"That's for sure, even if it can't be the next World of Warcraft, but if it becomes the next Miracle MU, this bottom line can be guaranteed. ”

"I believe it. "Aion" is very well-made, by no means a shoddy product like "World of Wonders", and the quality can definitely be guaranteed. ”

Brother Pony paused for a moment and continued: "We at Tencent have the best promotion channels, not to mention that Youyou will also help us in the back. ”

Yoyo Security Guard, Software Butler, they will provide the download link of "Aion" for free in the best position, and the reward is YOYO voice sharing QQ's user data.

"Yoyo~. ”

When Zhang Xiaolong heard Brother Xiao Ma mention Youyou, he thought of Ningjiang, Hangcheng, and other cities in the south of the Yangtze River, and it was snowing over there.

I don't know if I have the opportunity to witness the winter scenery on the south side of the Yangtze River, and the snow on the broken bridge......
