Chapter 22: Mr. Knocking the Lid

IBM's John Oppel and Microsoft's Gates didn't understand at first why Caesar was recruiting the down-and-out "Mr. Ray".

It wasn't until the media dug up that "Mr. Ray" was appointed by Caesar as the general manager of the marketing department of FFF that they understood Caesar's general idea.

"Mr. Ray" is not as depressed as he seems, he left his mansion to hide in a motel because the pain of failure made it difficult for him to face his previous life, and secondly, to hide from the media.

Today, "Mr. Ray" has regrouped with the encouragement of Caesar, sold his mansion next to Silicon Valley, bought a villa next to FFF headquarters in Santa Monica Beach, and moved his family to start a new second life.

Caesar lacks a veteran in the game industry, as well as experience and achievements in sales.

At that time, as soon as the news of "Mr. Ray's" resignation came out, Caesar asked the private investigator to take action. After all the twists and turns, it was not in vain, and finally won the "Caesar II", which underestimated its own value.

On the first day of his arrival, "Mr. Ray" announced that he should not be called by his full name, nor should he be called Mr. Caesar. Call him his position, or call him "Mr. Ray", there is only one Caesar in FFF, and that is Caesar von Lawrence Lee.

Hearing this decision, which was unassumable, whether it was a suspicion or a sycophancy, Caesar just laughed it off.

He doesn't have time to think nonsense, the company's production and sales are on the right track, and the R&D team and the game production team still need to be expanded and integrated.

In addition, Gates entered the game industry so early to stir up trouble, and if he didn't teach him a lesson, Caesar, the industry leader, would make people see jokes.

In June of '83, Caesar released FFF's latest personal PC on the MTV game channel, and it was open for pre-order, and it was officially released a week later.

The CPU is an improved version based on 80386, which can be said to be two years ahead of IBM's launch of 386 personal PCs, which are equipped with the "Windows 83 Windows operating system" (in fact, it is the modified Microsoft).

At this time, Microsoft hasn't even figured it out yet. Caesar's mischievous pit is not to snatch Microsoft's position on the operating system, but mainly to retaliate against disgusting Gates.

The second is to make technical and word-of-mouth reserves for FFF's "honeycomb system" (HONEYB) in the future. The so-called hive system is also a game platform that Caesar used as a sample of the Steam platform in his previous life and was ready to be transplanted at that time.

Caesar didn't want to release the hive system himself, and those sunspots and opponents would use the fact that they hadn't done PC-related business as a point of attack.

Now is the right time to warn Gates and to reserve and warm up for future hive systems and gaming-specific PCs.

In Caesar's vision, at the beginning of the online era, any FFF user could log in to the hive system through a home console or a PC dedicated to gaming, and the PC and console could play online, of course, the premise must be a non-exclusive game.

Caesar had these questions in mind from the start, and FFF had its own exclusive games for consoles and PCs.

For example, real-time strategy games on PC and related extended Dota classes, Sims and Simcities, are exclusive to PC.

Even if Caesar was going to equip all 32-bit consoles with keyboards and mice, he wasn't going to make these games available for PC. These game genres must be featured on the PC platform.

Console-exclusive games are, of course, "Uncharted", "Tomb Raider", "Legend of the Recluse", "Dark Souls", "Bloodborne", "American Armageddon" and other difficult or classic action games or action RPG games.

In addition to the above games, Caesar expects most PC and console players to be able to play online through the Guò Hive system.

Finally, the fps game in Caesar is a wonderful storage zài.

Because the keyboard and mouse operation naturally surpasses the controller in FPS games, only the cooperative mode of FPS games allows PC players and console players to cooperate, and if you choose the versus mode, the system will automatically divide players on both sides according to the different platforms used by the players.

Caesar painstakingly conceived so that console and PC players would be able to enjoy World of Warcraft and Destiny online on the same network.

The emergence of this windows83 really scared Gates, Microsoft is still demonstrating the feasibility of the graphical interface system according to IBM's PC performance, and FFF has released a PC machine with a Windows system.

This gap is too big, and it has completely exceeded the bottom limit on the part of Microsoft and IBM.

Having been crushed by someone for a whole generation (three years) in terms of technology and philosophy, this gap can almost be said to be a shame in the IT world.

Microsoft and IBM, as two giant companies in the IT industry, one soft and one hard, met overnight to discuss, because people have announced more advanced things, should the backward projects under development need to be stopped?

Some people say that you need to stop, otherwise it will be a waste of time and money.

Others, however, insist that their own research should be continued as a technical and theoretical reserve. As a giant, if it is forced to have a technological fault, it will be a joke.

As a result, both companies were the same, and the whole meeting was a mess.

Keesar didn't know that in order to warn Microsoft, he made a prototype with a golden finger on a whim, and scared Microsoft and IBM.

You must know that if Caesar's prototype wants to be mass-produced, it will take at least one or two months of training and one or two months of technical preparation.

After finishing this business, Kaisa is also on summer vacation, and he will be in the seventh grade when school starts again, and he will be considered a junior high school student in Huaxia.

In the past six years, he has rarely missed school, because during this period, elementary schools in the United States were basically half-day classes, and the afternoon was either extracurricular activities or directly after school.

Caesar simply went to class on time in the morning and went straight to the door in the afternoon. His extracurricular activities are basically in the company, the factory and the family. Occasionally, I go to MTV to broadcast a live broadcast of a one-life clearance or something.

After the start of school, such a pleasant day will pass......

Originally, the seventh grade in the United States was the same, there were one or two classes in the afternoon, and Caesar attended Beverly Hills Private School. Compared with public schools, the curriculum is not only intensive, but also rigorous. If Caesar is lazy and skips class, he will definitely notify his parents.

Thinking about Elizabeth's nirvana "pulling her ears" that she couldn't dodge, Caesar had a sense of despair that "there is no advantage in being reborn".

Bea also filmed "Angels on Earth" in New York...... It is estimated that after the start of school, the only person who can comfort Caesar is the obedient and well-behaved little Liv.

The life of the little one in kindergarten did not alleviate her attachment to Caesar in the slightest.

Originally, as a four or five-year-old child, it was the time to grow his body, and it was surprising that the task of waking Caesar up every day was actually completed by little Liv.

The little one couldn't shake every day, and the first thing he did when he got up at half past six was to go to Caesar's room, and he climbed into bed with great difficulty, and then he didn't speak, but sat beside Caesar and shook until he was awake.

When Caesar had fully woken up, he kissed the door of the head, and there was a giggling and cheerful laugh that is characteristic of little girls.

In fact, Caesar has beauty energy, why do you need to sleep? It's just that every morning with the little girl.

Just to hear that elf-like laugh.
