After listening to his cousin's words, Gu Cheng felt that it really made sense. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In those grey, ambiguous business areas, local protection is a powerful swing factor.

People who make money through gray businesses on the Internet in China tend to avoid the place where the sufferer is registered.

After all, if the enterprise is diverted with 40 million profits, it is equivalent to the local government being cut off 10 million taxes, which is all cut on the heads of officials. In particular, online game companies are the most typical taxpayers in the Internet industry.

After turning his mind, Gu Cheng pondered and said, "It seems that Wang Zhi has to work harder and dig deeper." This also pays them some hardship. We don't engage in unspoken rules, nor do we engage in bribery, but it is troublesome for people to work overtime, and the benefits that should be given must not be less, and it is okay to sponsor the public. ”

Pan Jieying agreed, but also reminded: "Just say hello to this matter, the New Year, and don't rush to produce results in a day or two, the most important thing is to stabilize them first." ”

Gu Cheng listened to his cousin in details, so this matter was arranged.

Aunt Gu Wen had to carry gifts to the local tax to greet her during the New Year's holiday, and her cousin Pan Jieying took care of the middle executive layer and spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to maintain a good relationship.

Everything seems to have passed for the time being.

The news of the crackdown on the plug-in/number theft group led by Du Ming naturally needs to be kept secret at present. Because Gu Cheng is still counting on Du Ming to pretend to be idle and continue to be a tainted witness.

After the meeting, Gu Cheng didn't say much to others, but just told Cheerilee, the project manager of Legendary Games, and Gan Jiawei, who is still the marketing director of Legendary Games, - these henchmen need to adjust their work arrangements in time according to the progress of future plug-ins/number theft/private server crackdowns, so they can't hide it all.

……

The next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Cheng and Pan Jieying were not so busy, so they naturally spent the New Year at home. The people over there are not easy to push too hard, and the Wang detachment promised that no matter what private goods Du Ming still has in his stomach, he will definitely take them out if he can take them out, and Gu Cheng also recognized this progress.

The company is on holiday, and only the operation and maintenance teams of Legend and Alipay must stay behind - even if it is Chinese New Year's Eve or New Year's Day, there are people playing Legend, and the number of players online may be more than usual. In addition, Gu Cheng had previously instructed the operation department to hold activities during the Chinese New Year, so those people were even busier.

In 2002, the concept of engaging in activities in domestic online games did not exist. It has to be put on hold for another two years before all kinds of games start to "kill the New Year Beast", "hit the lucky bag", "burst red envelopes/firecrackers" and other kinds of online moths.

Therefore, the only New Year's event arranged by "Legend" this year (in fact, it is only double experience and double explosion rate during the New Year) has quite a wave of sales for the game, and hundreds of thousands of new users have entered the pit with social diffusion.

The "legendary" project manager Cheerilee, in addition to the artists, several other key technical employees from Dongyi, as well as a dozen local maintenance engineers in China, all had to work overtime until the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

Gu Cheng's conditions for them were: 3 times the salary and red envelopes within 7 days, and after the New Year, they will get twice the length of annual leave in batches.

As for those Dongyi employees, Gu Cheng also gave a special "half-month vacation from the eighth day of the Lunar New Year and permission to return to Dongyi to pay New Year's greetings" -- among East Asian countries, Dongyi people, like Chinese people, also celebrate the Spring Festival. But the Fuso people are gone.

It was the second day of the Lunar New Year, late at night.

It was Cheerilee's turn to work overtime with a Dongyi data operations supervisor named Kim Sung-taek, as well as several Chinese test engineers.

Kim Sung-taek was one of the first six Dongyi employees recruited by Cheerilee, and now he is a legendary technology veteran. For more than a year, Gu Cheng's salary plus bonuses for him was enough to hundreds of thousands of yuan, which was not a disadvantage.

Player traffic was a bit higher than expected, but everything seemed stable thanks to the addition of backup servers in advance. After 12 o'clock, everyone went to the cafeteria for supper, and their mentality was quite relaxed.

"Huh? Today there is a cheese spicy fried rice cake, and I want this. ”

Cheerilee was the first to walk into the cafeteria, and she saw her favorite spicy fried rice cake, which was still topped with seafood, and she was very excited to order one. Kim Sung-taek also ordered the same, and the rest of the Chinese employees didn't like this bite, so they ate Chinese food.

Maybe it was homesickness at the end of the year, Cheerilee and Kim Sung-taek sat in a corner of the cafeteria, eating and chatting in Yi. Usually the relationship between the two is not very good - to be exact, Kim Sung-taek is very obedient to Cheerilee, but Cheerilee never pretends to Kim Song-taek.

Other O&M employees couldn't understand Yiyu, so they naturally wouldn't bother the leaders to chat.

While eating, Cheerilee casually instructed: "After the year, we must do a good job of backing up the server, and there may be a wave of new users in two months that is larger than the end of the year." The plug-in seizure algorithm to prevent penetrating the wall/piercing person should also be upgraded......"

Jin Chengze listened, his face was slightly cloudy: "The Chinese New Year is already the peak of players, how can it be possible after the New Year?" Is something happening? ”

"It's nothing." Cheerilee still has that string in her head, knowing that Gu Cheng has explained her words and can't talk nonsense, but many work instructions are not explained, and the people below can't know what it is and why, after Cheerilee is entangled for a few times, it is very painful.

Kim Sung-taek said with an unhappy face: "Xiaoche, we have been colleagues for three years, don't you trust me?" Is there anything you can't say to me?"

Cheerilee turned her face: "You should call me the car manager!" ”

Kim Sung-taek seemed to be a little emotionally unstable: "Car manager! Although your administrative level is higher than mine, I am a purely technical position, and the salary level is ...... I don't want to mention this. What I've done to you in the past two years, you know in your heart. There are some things that I really want to fight for......"

Cheerilee's face turned red and she was slightly impatient: "Some words are enough to say once, and if you dare to mention it again, I'll turn your face!" ”

"You're 24 years old! It's time to think about yourself, don't be unrealistic. You want to make Gu Cheng favor you with your loyalty, that's a fool's dream! Although you are a beauty, he is surrounded by stunning female stars, you are a game planner, and you are five or six years older than him, how can you compare! ”

"Shut up!" Cheerilee was enraged, her face turned red, she didn't finish the seafood spicy fried rice cakes, and gritted her teeth and ordered: "What I said just now, you understand it and implement it, and if you don't understand it, you must implement it." Otherwise, I'll have to report to my superiors. ”

With that, Cheerilee left the cafeteria without even putting away the plates. Kim Song-taek followed behind, and seemed to be angry: "If you don't tell me the reason today, even if you report it afterwards, I won't carry it out." Even if I am punished, the company's affairs will be delayed! ”

Cheerilee stopped, took a few deep breaths, and secretly thought: What Mr. Gu explained, can't be wrong...... Forget it, others can't understand Yiyu, and they say that if Jin Chengze listens alone, he will not joke about his future.

"Tell you yes, but you have to do it to the letter. Also, I can't say it to a third person anymore! ”

Cheerilee thought that she had explained it tightly enough, and then returned to the office and said the news that Gu Cheng had secretly cracked down on a large gang of number thieves/plug-ins.

She didn't see it, and Kim Sung-taek's face changed suddenly.

"Du Ming is exposed? Worst! I used the authority of the data operation and maintenance director to modify the server-side program to sell equipment, I don't know if the company found out? No, I shouldn't have found it yet, otherwise the car wouldn't have been able to guard against me. ”

Kim Sung-taek's matter is actually not accidental.

In that case, a total of three people were arrested from the data operation and maintenance director to the GM of the specific execution layer, and the profit of the modified equipment seized in the end amounted to millions of yuan.

This can't be blamed on human greed, it's really a moving fortune - when a person in charge of data operation and maintenance looks at the market when a ruling sells for hundreds of yuan, a dragon slayer knife sells for tens of thousands, a free fan costs thousands of yuan, and the God of War suit is thousands, it is very difficult for them not to be psychologically shaken.

Especially for these equipment, the person responsible for server-side data maintenance can change it with the permission at their fingertips......

Changing a few thousand pieces of equipment and selling them out is a business with millions of capitalless.

Since the second half of 01, the Alipay system of personal accounts began to pave the way, and the game equipment transaction became hot, Jin Chengze did not resist the temptation, and began to do this with a hardcore henchman, he took the fattest big head himself, and has already made more than 2 million, which is about ten times higher than his legitimate income in the past six months.

However, it is impossible for Kim Sung-taek to have a shipping channel in person, so he has a subordinate family, that is, Du Ming.

This is also the reason why Du Ming has to stay in a high-risk place like Qiantang to run a number-stealing/plug-in business - Kim Chengze has repeatedly demanded that the settlement between him and him must be all cash, and bank transfers and Alipay are not accepted. Because Kim Sung-taek must absolutely protect himself and leave no traces.

Every month, Du Ming had to personally connect with Kim Sung-taek under the single line and hand over the money from the sale of equipment to Kim Sung-taek. Then he sold the equipment he got from Kim Sung-taek at a low price and sold it directly through the channel of stealing the number and selling the stolen goods.

……

After chatting with Cheerilee, Kim Sung-taek's brain was racing.

When he returned to the office, the first thing he did was to check the flight information.

The flight to Seoul on the third day of the Lunar New Year still has empty seats, and his ticket for the eighth day of the Lunar New Year can be changed to the third day of the Lunar New Year with additional money online.

"Long nights and dreams...... If the case is discovered, more than 2 million yuan will definitely be recovered, and maybe he will have to go to prison for several years. That's it, so far, the only way is to go, anyway, I don't have any relatives in China to be involved. Whether it is to flee back to China incognito or to find another way out, it is impossible to extradite such a small case. ”

"But 2 million is not enough for the rest of my life...... If something really gets bigger, don't even think about looking for a job normally for the rest of your life. No, is there a way to make a fortune faster...... That's right! Xiaoche said just now that the reason why Du Ming can't be exposed is to lead Mr. Park to take the bait. If I can poke this news to Mr. Park and let him know that he must not contact Du Ming again...... This news should make Mr. Park reward me with a lot of money, right? ”

When Kim Sung-taek thought like this, he didn't take into account that he had betrayed Park Young-gwan once a year and a half ago and jumped to Legendary Entertainment.

Although in his own mind, he has never betrayed Park Young-guan, he is pretentious and suave, and he came to Legend Entertainment because he coveted the beauty of Cheri. If it weren't for Cheerilee's girl's spring heart, she would be loyal to Gu Cheng every day......

Thinking of this, Kim Sung-taek really hated his original decision.

After thinking about it, he first changed the plane ticket for the eighth day of the new year that he had bought on the website, and changed it to the next morning, that is, the third day of the new year

Then he got up and walked to the men's restroom on this floor of the office building. After confirming that there was no one around, he hid in a cubicle, took out his mobile phone and dialed Park Young-gwan's number.

However, he didn't expect that before the phone could be dialed, the cubicle door behind him was kicked open by a long leg wearing high heels.

"Kim Sung-taek, what are you doing? When you asked me to tell you the details, I doubted you! ”

Kim Sung-taek was frightened, the phone fell to the ground, and Cheerilee didn't care about the danger, so he rushed over to pick it up and pressed the hang up button.

Looking at the number that was about to be dialed on the mobile phone, Cheerilee's face changed greatly: "You actually contacted Park Yingguan?" Do you want to betray Mr. Gu? ”

Kim Sung-taek raised his hands above his head and looked reassuring: "Little car, don't be nervous, you can't talk about betrayal, right?" Park Yingguan and Gu Cheng are both things that eat people and don't spit out bones. We make things and let them make hundreds of millions, how much can they share with the R&D team? All of them add up to millions! I have something unspeakable, you let me go today, I'll give you 1 million, how about it? If you are willing to come with me, I promise you to live a good life for the rest of your life. ”

"Fuck off! You make me sick! I didn't expect you to be such Kim Sung-taek! Cheerilee stepped back with a look of disgust, then took out her mobile phone and dialed Gu Cheng's number.

Kim Sung-taek's face changed greatly, if he let Cheerilee make a small report successfully, his chance to escape would be over, and he would vomit out all the more than 2 million he swallowed, not to mention, and he would go to prison.

His blood swelled for a moment, and he suddenly rushed forward, and put a foot on Cheerilee's lower abdomen. Cheerilee is just a slender girl of 1.6 meters and 90 pounds, naturally she has no combat effectiveness, she was kicked away, hit her back on the wall behind her, and spurted out a mouthful of blood "wow".

However, Cheerilee is not unconscious, and although the phone is out of her hand, the person can still move. Kim Sung-taek is already difficult to ride a tiger, and if he can't at least stun Cheerilee, he will definitely not be able to escape.

A phone call can keep him out of the plane.

With a fierce look in his eyes, he took out the fruit knife he carried with him, stabbed Cheerilee in the abdomen, and then covered Cheerilee's mouth and nose until the other party passed out.

Then Kim Sung-taek threw the fruit knife into the squatting pit and rushed away, washed his hands and fled the company in a hurry.

……

"Sister Che, what's the matter with me in the middle of the night?" The moment the phone was connected, Gu Cheng was shocked.

Since running Legends, he is most afraid of any unexpected events in the operation of the game, such as server crashes......

Every time I get a phone call in the middle of the night, I can't sleep for a long time after waking up.

At this moment, he thought that there was a big bug in the game's New Year's activities.

Cheerilee was silent, and Gu Cheng was about to ask again, when he heard a violent ringing and struggle on the other end of the phone.

"What's going on?" He felt a burst of blood fill his brain, and after struggling to think about it for dozens of seconds, he jumped up from the bed, put on a few clothes, and prepared to go out.

Pan Jieying, who was next door, was also awakened, and walked to the living room to look at him with a puzzled expression: "What are you tossing in the middle of the night for the New Year?" ”

Gu Cheng said while putting on his shoes: "There may be something wrong with the company, Sister Che called me, but she didn't say anything." ”

"Huh? Then I'll go with you, I'll drive. Hearing this, Pan Jieying hurriedly put on a windbreaker directly over her underwear, and then left.

15 minutes later, Gu Cheng rushed to the company, but was told by the employees that he had not seen the car manager since supper.

"Look! Don't look for it right away! ”

"Yes, Mr. Gu!" A group of O&M personnel are in a hurry and have to scatter around.

"Wait!" Gu Cheng felt his eyelids jump for a while.

"What's wrong with Mr. Gu?"

"At the same time...... Call for an ambulance! Sister Che called me before the accident, and it was probably a big accident. ”

"Ambulance? It's okay if the car comes......"

"It's okay when the car comes, I'm losing money! I'll get it! Just go! ”

Five minutes later, everyone found Cheerilee in the bathroom, who had been stabbed unconscious.

"And breathing, stop the bleeding! Send to the hospital! ”
