Chapter 103: The Poor Dagger
Xiao Baihe's positioning in the planning department of the threesome studio is similar to that of the Holy Grail studio before. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
To put it simply, most of the time I spent testing the game and keeping a record of the problems encountered during the test.
When Ling Xingning was too busy, he would occasionally throw one or two irrelevant system documents to him to complete, and then Ling Xingning would take some time out of his own time to approve and tell Xiao Baihe where the writing was unqualified and needed to be revised.
Duan Shanshan is responsible for most of the interaction with the art department, just as Ling Xingning is responsible for most of the interaction with the program department.
As for the internal interaction of the planning department, to be honest, Saiwen's attention is far higher than that of Xiao Baihe. After all, Saiwen's unique insights on player interactions such as team battles, arenas, team battles, and national battles were unanimously recommended by Liu Kewei and Ling Xingning.
Xiao Baihe is just a fresh graduate who is an ordinary gamer.
Therefore, after Jumei and Jucheng joined the studio, he couldn't find any opportunities to contact them openly in the office.
He struggled for two or three days, until finally he had an idea and tried to instigate Ling Xingning to build a company group in the name of "strengthening communication between colleagues" and adding everyone in the studio.
So, Xiao Baihe finally got the Q numbers of Zhu Cheng and Zhu Mei, and sent these two numbers to Manager Xu in Hangzhou by text message that night.
As a former member of the top domestic portal, Manager Xu's contacts and news channels are much more extensive than those of ordinary game practitioners.
The previous recruitment work of the Holy Grail Studio confirmed this, compared to Manager Bing, who would only post job postings on major job search websites and then wait for the other party to recommend himself, when Xu Zhuce wanted to recruit a deputy director, he effectively transmitted the news to hundreds of veterans in the industry and more than a dozen headhunting companies in a short period of time through his own private social network channels.
When Xiao Baihe finally got the contact information of the new master Cheng and the main beauty of the threesome studio, Manager Xu first directly contacted the main beauty in private, and offered a relatively more competitive treatment to persuade the other party to join his team.
As for the client master, because the position conflicts with Manager Wang's partner Gong Master, it is inconvenient to poach directly, but this is obviously not difficult for Manager Xu, who has been prepared for a long time. He inquired about several companies that needed this position a few days in advance, and chose a target with better conditions and HR that he was familiar with, and directly gave the contact information of the client's main program.
And Manager Xu also specially arranged for the two to resign next Monday.
After preparing everything, Manager Xu happily informed Vice Dong Shao that he had confirmed the situation, and gave the email address of Azel, the administrative director of Xiafei Company, and the public relations department of Mingzhou Company had already prepared the official letter, and after filling in the email address, it was sent immediately.
ββββββββ divider of the twenty-ninth appearanceββββββββ
In an office building on the East Gate Commercial Pedestrian Street of Pengcheng, Guangdong Province, in the office of the administrative director of Xiafei Company. Azel sat dumbfounded at his desk, facing the e-mail on the monitor, unable to close his gaping mouth for a long time.
An electronic letter sent to me by Mingzhou?
I naturally know that Mingzhou Company is among the top ten domestic online games with our Xiafei Company, but they are headquartered in the imperial capital, and we are headquartered in Pengcheng, one south and one north, and the intersection is not too much.
Occasionally, there will be some interaction between the marketing department and the operation department of the two companies, but at the level of senior executives, there is really no dealing.
Looking at the wording on this official letter, it is even more inexplicable - solemnly declare: The copyright of the full set of art resources of the original "Legend of the Six Paths Online" has been transferred to the company, and any unit or individual is prohibited from infringing on it......
What does this matter to me? I have never heard of this project at all, and I don't control the R&D team, so there is no possibility of using any art resources to infringe on the issue.
Azel rubbed his eyes and carefully looked at the addressee, forwarding, and header of the mail - yes, it wasn't a mass mail, it was addressed to him by name.
Could this be some kind of prank?
Puzzled, Azel was about to throw the inexplicable email into the trash when the office phone on his desk rang.
It was the front desk of the company who called.
"Mr. Azel, a man who claims to be surnamed Xu has come to you and called me. He asked if you had received the letter, and if there was anything he didn't understand, could he explain it to you, would you like to pick it up for you?"
After thinking for a few seconds, Azel asked the receptionist to transfer the call to his extension with the intention of listening, and then put down the microphone.
After a while, the phone rang again, and he grabbed the phone and asked straight to the point: "Are you from Mingzhou Company? What does your company mean by sending me that inexplicable official letter?"
The man on the other end of the phone seemed to let out a chuckle, and Azel cursed a little annoyed and was about to hang up, when the person on the other end of the line spoke.
"Don't worry, Mr. Azel, please listen to what I explain to you. I heard that you are very dissatisfied with the producer of your company's second part, and I can help you a little, so I asked Mingzhou to send you that official letter, in fact, it is the team that Joey has recruited to make a promotional video using the art resources of "Legend of the Six Paths". β
It seems that the person who called either had a conflict with Joey, or couldn't get along with that team? In this case, it makes sense to send this official letter to himself.
It's just that Azel claims to be a principled person, and the confrontation between him and Joey is also on the table, and he doesn't bother to use this kind of small tricks under the table.
Therefore, he replied in a very cold tone: "You know quite a lot, but this official letter may not be as effective as you think, as far as I know, the project of the new team that Joey got has already reported to the company that all art resources are to be remade, so there will definitely be no copyright problems." β
There is another sentence that Azel did not say clearly, as long as the project can bring benefits to the boss, the boss will not fire Joey because of the small controversy over the use of infringing art resources in the promotion video.
However, as if he had guessed what he was thinking, the other party continued to speak: "Don't worry, don't worry, Mr. Azel, that official letter is just a public reason for your company. According to what I know, there was a huge bug in the game engine of the new project, and I don't know if it was the studio that concealed it or Joey's idea, but the previous team of this project was disbanded because of this bug. β
Azel's eyes suddenly lit up, if the other party's words were true, no matter which of the two possibilities, once the boss knew, he would not be able to spare Joey.
"Is that really the case?" asked Azel, incredulously.
"Hahaha, if you don't believe it, you can call and ask Vice Director Shao of Mingzhou Company why he stopped his cooperation plan with the Holy Grail Studio less than a month ago. If you don't have his private mobile phone number, I can tell you. β
Listening to the tone of the man on the phone, could it be that the reason why Mingzhou gave up this project was because of a vulnerability in the game engine? However, it's been almost a month, maybe the situation has changed again?
"Even if there was a bug before, it doesn't necessarily have been solved now, right? Joey's new team came with a main plan, maybe he has already done it!"
"The main program you are talking about is called Che Guanglong, right?" The man on the phone sneered, "I won't tell you, he was just a team leader on the server side in the Holy Grail Studio before, and the technical director of the original Holy Grail Studio spent half a year not solving it, and then pulled the client master and four programmers, including Che Guanglong, and it took more than half a month to see no hope of solving the problem, you said that Che Guanglong He could solve the problem in less than a month?" If he really has this ability, and the people in the Holy Grail Studio are not blind or stupid, they should have promoted him to be the master or technical director a long time ago!"
In this way, the possibility that this loophole still exists is indeed very high, Azel groaned for a while, silently thinking in his heart, feeling that he wanted to use this matter to shake Joey's credibility in the eyes of the boss, and it seemed that the grasp was still a little bit short.
"If Joey says he doesn't know about the loophole, it's easy to get by. Azel frowned and said, his attitude to the call unconsciously changed from disdain to participation at the beginning to a position of frank communication, "To be honest, our boss's ears are very soft, Joey that guy is a charlatan at all, he relies on two mouths to eat, he will definitely shirk his responsibility cleanly." β
"Is that so? But that's okay, I have a trick up my sleeve. The man on the other end of the phone replied confidently, "Next Monday, Joey's new team has just recruited the main beauty and the client master will hand in their resignations together, how about it, this sudden incident is enough to prove that Joey has no control over his subordinate team, right?"
Azel's eyes narrowed suddenly, her pupils narrowed, and she clenched her free left hand hard.
If the man's words on the phone are true, then this is the opportunity he has been waiting for to kick Joey out of the company!
The boss may be indifferent to the use of infringing art resources in the game video, or he may believe that Joey does not know that there are serious loopholes in the project of his subordinate team, but as a producer, if he can't even keep the senior director of the team, the boss will never risk his own investment money to continue to support him!
He's just a good talker, and he's not the boss's father or son!
