Chapter 103 Overtime, Must Work Overtime

Ren Pingsheng has been in a good mood recently, on the one hand, it is An Qi's change of heart, which has made up for the missing part of his heart to a certain extent.

Although An Qi agreed to leave Tang Jian, she did not divorce Tang Jian immediately, An Qi is a woman who has a beginning and an end, and she will not leave it alone until Tang Jian's body fully recovers.

For An Qi's consideration, Ren Pingsheng reciprocated with a tolerant attitude, after all, they have been husband and wife for many years, and they were inserted halfway, so it is okay to win people's love, there is no need to sprinkle salt on other people's wounds when they bleed.

An Qi wants to send Tang Jian to finish this journey, which is also in line with her character, Ren Pingsheng will do his best to support her, Tang Jian needs a house, he needs money, Ren Pingsheng can give it to him, as long as it is not difficult for An Qi and does not make it difficult for her, it is fine.

On the other hand, the good thing is that with the help of Jiang Qiurong's connections in the financial circle, Wanyou Network has contacted several venture capital companies, and from the initial contact, these venture capitalists are quite interested in Wanyou Network and the games under development of Wanyou Network.

However, venture capital has the rules of the venture capital industry, and it is difficult for them to persuade investors to invest their money in Wanyou before Wanyou Network comes up with a certain convincing game work.

Ren Pingsheng can understand this kind of caution, venture capital is also a company, although it is engaged in venture capital, but the control of risk is not relaxed.

If it is Ren Pingsheng himself, he will also put a bunch of question marks on a start-up that has never come up with a product.

Like Lei Jun, private equity investors who invest when they see the founder are still a minority.

Therefore, Ren Pingsheng now needs to urge the R&D team to quickly come up with the finished product of "Ideal World" that can be seen to accept the review of venture capital.

At the same time, Ren Pingsheng has another consideration, which is why "Ideal World" needs to speed up the progress.

Because it's almost winter vacation.

As a former gamer, Ren Pingsheng has a deep feeling about the impact of winter vacation on online games.

Every year, the winter vacation is regarded by game operators as the trough period of online games, and the online rate of various online games during this period will drop sharply, resulting in this period being called the "trough period" of online games.

According to statistics over the years, the largest group of online game players in China is students, especially college students.

Ten years ago, neither personal computers nor broadband were as ubiquitous as they were in later generations, and the main places for college students to play online games were Internet cafes and dormitories.

During the winter vacation, after returning to their hometowns, college students either have no computers, or no broadband, and they have to visit relatives and friends during the Spring Festival, so they can't play games online.

During this time, when I opened various online games, it was a miserable and miserable scene.

When Ren Pingsheng played "World of Warcraft" back then, the biggest headache was that during this winter vacation, there was a shortage of people, and even team copies could not be organized.

However, one of the effects of the "trough period" is that the first month or two after the start of the new school year is the "prime time" for online game operations.

The reason is very simple, the group of students who have returned to school have very little pressure on schoolwork during the beginning of school, and they have the New Year's money for the Spring Festival in hand, so the study pressure and economic pressure are very small.

Coupled with the fact that many people don't have time to play games during the winter vacation, the pent-up desire to play will be fully released within a month or two after the start of school.

Just like the retaliatory rebound of the real estate market after the liberalization of long-term purchases, the retaliatory return of college students to online games is also an iron law.

Therefore, this "prime time" is the best time for new online games to attract players and cultivate the market, and it is also a market opportunity for various online game operators to compete for.

In the short period of less than one month from the "trough period" to the "prime time", if "Ideal World" can be successfully completed, it will seize an excellent market period, which will be of great benefit to the marketing and popularity promotion of new online games.

……

"The most important thing now is that we need to get the game ready for the end of the winter break and start the closed beta before the start of the new school year. ”

Ren Pingsheng issued a new task goal to several leaders of the R&D department.

After listening to the boss's speech, everyone turned their heads to each other and talked constantly. Judging from their facial feedback, it is not easy for Ren Pingsheng's goal to be realized.

Xu Tao also frowned, Ren Pingsheng's idea came to him recently, and it was the first time he knew it.

Although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he still opened his mouth and asked:

"Guohui, do you think we can do it if we start the internal test before the start of school?"

Li Guohui took a heavy breath, his thin face rose a few green tendons, his hands seemed to be operating a keyboard, writing and drawing on the paper for a while, and then he raised his head and said:

"According to the current schedule, it will take about 135 hours to complete the work of the alpha version, and if you want to add the prototype of the numerical, virtual, and social system just mentioned, the workload will be at least doubled, and it will not be possible to do it without 300 hours. ”

Xu Tao turned his eyes to Hu Jinren, the leader of the art team,

Hu Jinren nodded and immediately replied:

"In terms of art, we currently have plenty of manpower, and the new content can be processed with the original materials, which is not a problem. ”

Wu Liao, the leader of the copywriting team, also took the initiative to express his position:

"In terms of copywriting, the new content is all noun explanations, and there is no need to write a story and design tasks, which I believe you can do. ”

Ren Pingsheng had been silent all the time, and after listening to the report of the R&D team, his face turned a little brighter, and he said:

"Special period, special arrangement, in order to complete the task of online beta testing in the new school year, the vacation that should be canceled will be canceled, and the overtime must be overworked, which is a key battle related to the company's listing, everyone must unite as one to fight this battle"

Ren Pingsheng's words were categorical, and there was an irrefutable momentum in his words, but the repercussions on the scene were not very consistent.

Other departments are okay, but Li Guohui, the director of the technical department, has been making a bitter face, and he said helplessly:

"Mr. Ren, it's not that we don't want to work overtime, this Spring Festival is a statutory holiday, many brothers haven't been home for more than a year, and they are all clamoring to go back to see their parents. ”

Ren Pingsheng had already considered Li Guohui's difficulties, he nodded, made a gesture that reassured him, and then turned to Liu Yijun and said:

"Isn't there a plan to arrange a team building this week, I suggest an outdoor barbecue dinner, all the employees of the company should go, and the management should also participate. ”

Although Liu Yijun didn't know which one Ren Pingsheng was selling in his bones, she definitely didn't dare to bother the boss with this question, so she immediately nodded and agreed.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away. ”

Ren Pingsheng nodded approvingly at her, patted Li Guohui's shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Guohui, don't be discouraged, what you are worried about will definitely be solved. ”

Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Ren Pingsheng said softly.

"Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men. ”
