"Old Yuan, have you ever thought about returning to the penguin game?"

Long before Wang Xinwen asked this sentence, he had preset several reactions in Yuan Shuai's mind when he heard this sentence: if it wasn't surprise, it would be unbelievable...... Maybe it's possible to laugh out loud, and the most unlikely outcome is to hit it off and be ecstatic......

However, Yuan Shuai's next behavior fully proves that using logic to speculate on human behavior patterns is itself an extremely spectrum thing.

After listening to Wang Xinwen's suggestion, Yuan Shuai's reaction was neither surprised and unbelievable, nor ecstatic, but a, a faint ...... Disappointment and ridicule.

That's right, although Wang Xinwen was only a small game planner during his work at Penguin, but since he started his own business, he has shouldered the responsibility of investment contact and external contact.

Even if it can't reach the level of clarity at a glance, but the most basic seven emotions of joy, anger, sorrow, worry, and shock, Wang Xinwen thinks that he will not be wrong.

Seeing that Yuan Shuai just glanced at himself and stopped talking, Wang Xinwen's face was also a little unbearable, he put down the cup and said again: "Old Yuan, our friends and colleagues for so many years, if you have any requirements, you can say it directly, although I may not have the authority to agree, but at least there is no problem in being a messenger." ”

"Lao Wang, in fact, when you came to me last night, I already thought about which company you would be a lobbyist for," Yuan Shuai let out a long sigh, and seemed a little reluctant to continue the topic, "It's just that I didn't expect that behind you, it would actually be Penguin Games." ”

"Enterprise ...... What's wrong with Penguin Games?" Speaking of this topic, Wang Xinwen became a little at a loss, "Penguin Games is also a company, as long as it allows us to play our abilities, does it make any difference which company we go to?"

"Lao Wang, that's not what I said. Yuan Shuai continued to sigh, as if he wanted to 'erupt' the words in his heart in this way. "Do you remember why we left Penguin Games in the first place?"

"I ......" Wang Xinwen was speechless.

Back then, Wang Xinwen, Zhang Hao, and Yuan Shuai, all three of them were originally members of the Northern Lights Studio under Penguin Games.

Northern Lights Studio is a team of about 100 people, and its members are not cultivated by Penguin Games itself, but mostly young people from well-known project teams and studios across the country......

In other words, from the very beginning, the members of Northern Lights Studios were unstable people who were dissatisfied with the old environment and eager to succeed in the new environment.

"I think at the beginning, when the three of us met, you and Zhang Hao thought that I was just like you, a newcomer who had just entered Penguin Games for a short time," Yuan Shuai didn't seem to intend to listen to Wang Xinwen's answer at all, and said to himself, "Actually, there is one thing I have been hiding from the two of you, and that is - in fact, Northern Lights Studio is my second time in Penguin Games." ”

"Back in '06, I was already working at Penguin Games. ”

"It was about '08 and I didn't think making games was what I wanted, so I submitted my resignation letter to my department head and went to work in sales for half a year. Speaking of this, Yuan Shuai smiled self-deprecatingly, "You always think that my temperament is silent, silent, and doesn't like to talk, but in fact, this is all a problem I fell when I was doing sales." ”

"In the six months of doing sales, I have endured I don't know how many failures, once people are hit too much, they will naturally feel that they are wrong to say more, and then, they simply don't want to talk. ”

"When I couldn't do sales, I had to go back to game planning. It was a small game company, and it was not very large, but I felt like I had found my original intention to make games...... It wasn't until the company's chief planner received an invitation from Northern Lights Studios to poach the company, and it was because of that chance that I became an employee of Penguin Games for the second time. ”

After listening to Yuan Shuai's experience, what Wang Xinwen could do was not only surprised, but still ...... Surprised, he didn't expect Yuan Shuai, who looked about the same age as him, to have such a past.

"So, why did you decide to leave Penguin Games a second time?"

Regarding the matter of recruiting Yuan Shuai, Wang Xinwen actually has almost no hope now.

The reason why he can still stick here is more purely as a 'curiosity', just to know what kind of mentality this man has in his heart.

"The main planner who brought me into Penguin Games back then was very popular on the Penguin Games platform. Now he has hundreds of millions of DAU (Daily Active Users) daily active users. It is often used to reflect the operation of websites, Internet applications, or online games. The person in charge of the business can still have meetings with the big boss every once in a while," Yuan Shuai said with a wry smile, "and before I left the Northern Lights, I could barely stay in the project team." ”

"So you mean that the person in charge doesn't pay attention to you?" Wang Xinwen was slightly stunned, and replied with a dark face, "Do you think I don't pay enough attention to you?"

"Lao Wang, you think too much. Yuan Shuai shook his head and denied Wang Xinwen's speculation, "When I first started working, I used to think that I could bury my head and do my own thing. When things are done well, the leader will naturally see it, the leader will naturally fully understand everyone's work, and the leader will naturally give everyone a chance fairly......"

"But unfortunately, all of my assumptions are wrong. ”

"Lao Wang, you are also a person who has been a leader, so you naturally know that leaders also have their own jobs, and there may be bigger leaders above the leaders", speaking of this, Yuan Shuai changed his words, "Compared with these things, the detailed situation of the employees under him is actually not something that they must master." ”

"Neither you nor my old superior have done anything wrong from this point of view. ”

"Just didn't do anything wrong? You mean, Li Mo has done a better job in this area, so you don't want to leave Lilith Technology?" Wang Xinwen finally sensed what the other party really wanted to say from Yuan Shuai's tirade, and his tone gradually increased, "Old Yuan, do you know that Lilith Technology can have today's success, "Dota Legend" can have its current results, and the foundation of the product's success is all laid down by us at the beginning, Li Mo is just a liar who steals the results at a low price." He ......"

"Wang Xinwen, shut up!"

Yuan Shuai interrupted Wang Xinwen's chatter tirade with an angry roar, and also made the people in the café cast inquiring glances in this direction.

"Yes, the purchase price paid by Mr. Li at the beginning is indeed disproportionate to the value created by "Dota Legend" now, but if you still have a little conscience, you won't be able to see how much "Dota Legend" has changed compared to when it was in our hands, right?!"

"If you don't know, I'll tell you!"

"Through outsourcing, we replaced all the art resources in the game within two months, and the total cost was about 4 million......

"Liu Yifei is the female star, she dubbed the role of Ice Girl in our game, and Wan Qian, the heroine of the movie "Hypnosis Master" with a box office of 500 million, she dubbed the role of Xiao Hei......

There are also Chen Chichi, Wang Chuanjun, Sun Yizhou...... They all contributed their voices to the characters in "Dota Legends", and these are completely Mr. Li's personal favors......"

"We hired a well-known numerical planner of Wangyi Games with a high salary, the one recommended to you by Zhang Hao, and his monthly salary is 35,000 ......"

"We have also expanded the R&D team and set up our own distribution team, and now all the salaries of these people are borne by Mr. Li......"

"We also bought the full rights to the characters and skills of the Dota series from Blizzard and Wilwu, and the person who negotiated this is not me, the exact amount is unknown, but I heard that it is about 5 million or so investment......

"In the end, when Dota Legend was released on the Apple App Store, we spent money on the volume for two weeks in a row, and the cost was about 6 million ......."

"Wang Xinwen, even if your brain no longer has the most basic computing power, it should not prevent you from calculating through the calculator, how much money has Mr. Li invested in total since he took over Lilith Technology!"

"And let me tell you, from the beginning to the end, Mr. Li has not put forward any rectification opinions and functional requirements, and even the development cycle is for us to evaluate by ourselves, and finally before the launch, he just gave us some suggestions as a gamer......"

"This ...... This can only show that Li Mo is scheming, he has done so many things and spent so much money, isn't it all for today's harvest?"

Wang Xinwen still didn't give up, and replied stiffly.

"Wang Xinwen, you ...... It really makes me look down on you. Yuan Shuai shook his head, with a disappointed expression, "Didn't you set up Lilith Technology in the first place to one day launch the game, prove yourself, and earn profits?"

"When Mr. Li took over Lilith Technology from you, did you ever think that there would be today?"

"Just because you are one of the founders of Lilith Technology, it is natural for you to reap the benefits, and because Li always takes over this stall from you halfway, so he is just scheming?"

"Wang Xinwen," Yuan Shuai picked up the cup of coffee in front of him, which was almost cold, and drank it all, "...... Let's not meet again. ”

"Today's coffee, I please!"
