Li Jian, the editor-in-chief of "Popular Software", has been busy with his feet lately, and during this year's Christmas holiday, a number of game companies around the world rushed together to release new games, and there were more than 50 new games worth paying attention to, and in order to do a good job in the first issue of the magazine in 1995, he worked overtime every day for a month in a row, and made a cross-ocean phone call with the review team of the American cooperative enterprise "Game Pass" to exchange scoring opinions.

"Editor-in-Chief Li! This morning, Director Fang of Longteng called you and asked if you had time to go to their company! The secretary walked into the office to give the news.

Li Jian has just come back from outside, and it hasn't been 5 minutes since he sat down, and he hasn't even breathed!

But as soon as he heard that it was Long Teng's call, he immediately stood up: "Did you say what happened?" Forget it, they definitely won't say it. When do you meet? ”

The secretary pursed his lips and laughed: "Director Fang said this time, it is Mr. Yang who wants to see you, if you surprise him, he will also give you a surprise, and meet at the Longteng headquarters in Zhongguancun at two o'clock in the afternoon." ”

Surprise? Yang Yun must be concerned about the game rating committee! Li Jian knew it and put his mind at ease: "Of course I will surprise him!" ”

Li Jian sorted out the relevant information of the scoring committee in the office, and drove away from the magazine with the first draft of the new issue of the magazine, he had just turned down from the fourth ring road, and had not yet entered Zhongguancun, and saw the colorful flags, balloons, waist drum team, red and yellow streamers next to Longteng Company from a distance, beating gongs and drums like a festival, it turned out that Longteng Computer World was officially open to the public!

When he entered the old Longteng headquarters building next door, Li Jian was taken to Yang Yun's reserved office and saw Yang Yun who was writing hard.

"Why didn't you cut the ribbon next door?" Li Jian hurriedly stepped forward and handed over the cigarette.

The two lit a fire. Yang Yun beckoned Li Jian to sit down, and said with a smile: "This is not a big deal. Yongping they arranged for someone to do it, and I don't want to come forward. Come on, come on. Did the surprise bring me? ”

Li Jian had the courage to joke: "What kind of surprise are you going to give me?" ”

Yang Yun pointed back with a thumbs up: "The office building in the back, leave you a floor for the headquarters of Popular Software Magazine, do you want it?" Rental at cost price! ”

"What?" Li Jian's first reaction was to give him a floor, but after hearing it clearly, he realized that it was a cost price rental, patted his chest and said: "Scared me, I thought it was to give me a floor!" ”

Yang Yun laughed: "If "Popular Software" is your private property, why don't I give you a layer? But the magazine is a public thing, so it's inconvenient for me! The property company here is our own Longteng, and a qiē fee can be given to you at a cost price. It's a prime location where every inch of land is at a premium. If you miss this village, you won't have this place! ”

"Popular Software" moved next door to Longteng headquarters, the biggest advantage is convenience, in the future to get first-hand information, no more than ten minutes to come, but also by the way to take into account the vast majority of the IT industry, Zhongguancun is not the core area of the IT industry.

And the transportation is convenient, the subway is at the foot, as long as the total cost is reduced. Who wouldn't want to move to Zhongguancun!

Li Jian raised his eyebrows: "This is really a surprise, but I have to go back and discuss it with the above......"

Yang Yun interrupted him and said with a smile: "Don't be happy first, will I give you two things back!" What do I want? ”

Li Jian handed over the grading criteria and the first draft. He introduced: "We adopt a rotation system for scoring editors, with 6 fixed standing committee members and 4 external professional reviewers who change every year. Every year, we only announce the list of external professional reviewers for the previous session after the new replacement members are announced. and all their ratings for public scrutiny. ”

Yang Yun nodded: "Both Chinese and foreign?" ”

Li Jian said: "Yes. There are 3 fixed standing committee members of "Popular Software" and 3 "Game Pass". We select from the more famous global game critics and game professional magazines to ensure fairness. There are no Japanese! ”

Yang Yun burst out laughing: "Aren't you fooling around?" Japan is also an important customer for us, so give them a place so that they don't make trouble. ”

Li Jian said indignantly: "In the past few months, little Japan has been scolding us across the sea every day, and I have long been annoyed!" I want to kick them away! ”

Yang Yun looked at the first draft of the new issue of the magazine again, and said lightly: "Don't do this, what you have to ensure is absolute fairness, don't be caught, and finally let the scoring criteria lose credibility." We want long-term benefits, and you don't want personal feelings in business. ”

Li Jian knew the importance of the list to Yang Yun, and hurriedly promised not to come nonsense.

Looking at the first batch of game ratings in the first draft, "Tomb Raider 1" scored 94 points, "Pro Evolution Soccer" scored 95 points, and was promoted to the platinum palace level, "Zuma" 89 was the golden palace, and several other games from Longteng Company were also ranked around the Silver Palace, Yang Yun laughed out loud.

"Not bad, yes, worthy of being the mouthpiece of Longteng! Don't move to the office building next door, just work here! ”

Li Jian laughed: "I'm very willing, but won't the list lose credibility?" But I'm going to tell you the truth, Pro Evolution Soccer scored 94 points, and the experts at our magazine gave 9 points, which is poor because I feel that the game emphasizes heroism too much, relies too much on the stars, and has a sense of refreshment, but it still can't reach the realm of perfect 'live'. ”

Yang Yun nodded, of course he knew that there were flaws and bugs, this was the first football game made by Longteng, technically speaking, it was not mature enough, and the subsequent version must be getting better and better.

"I know what you mean, you mean that even if Chinese doesn't favor Longteng, Pro Evolution Football can win the Platinum Palace......" Yang Yun smiled: "It's okay, anyway, the meat is rotten in the pot, and the reviews are all Sega platform games, and the profits are still us, you just need to ensure absolute fairness." ”

Credibility is a very valuable asset, and it cannot be abused once, otherwise it will lose the effect of authority, and once it is lost, it will be difficult to pick it up again, just like Nobel, this kind of honor must not be lightly distributed, it must be justified and verified.

"No problem, Mr. Yang! Oh yes, this is the press release of yesterday's Tsinghua Carnival, you can take a look at this ......" Li Jian handed over another piece of information and introduced: "Every year at the Sega Carnival, we will come up with a special topic, and from this year onwards, it will be changed to the Dragon Carnival. ”

Dragon Carnival, Yang Yun has a plan in his heart, and it's almost time.

On the Japanese side, the programmers and game architects have been evacuated, and there is still a hardware room that is not easy to dismantle and move, and it is estimated that in the next few days, during the New Year, the Japanese government may make a final decision.

He's ready!

……

On December 29th, Yang Yun drove his Ferrari to CCTV, and unexpectedly, his Beijing A00001 license plate was known to everyone, and the doorman directly released it.

In addition to Yang Yun, Fan Zhiyi Hao Haidong, and some football players who play in Ligue 1 and La Liga all came to the studio as guests to record the program.

Every Thursday night from 18:30 to 22:30, a full four hours, covering domestic and foreign football, as well as live broadcasts, Football Night is the favorite TV program of the first generation of football fans in China.

Producer Zhang Bin greeted Yang Yun and held Yang Yun's hand as soon as he came up: "Thank you, Mr. Yang, it will premiere on Sunday on New Year's Day, so I can only record the show today and edit the video on Sunday." ”

Yang Yun smiled and said, "That's just right, I'm afraid of the live broadcast of foreign appearances." It's so much easier to record and broadcast! ”

The two laughed and walked into the studio, and everyone else had arrived, and they all stood up to say hello to Yang Yun.

There was another guest in the room, Xiao Zhiqiang, a famous sports commentator and football commentator of the important domestic sports newspaper "Sports Weekly", who shook hands with Yang Yun and expressed endless respect.

When everyone was chatting, Zhang Bin asked his assistant to hand over the program flow chart, the questions listed on it were all fine, Yang Yun said that he didn't mind answering, so Zhang Bin continued to arrange for the makeup artist to come over to touch up the makeup, and asked the assistant director to come over to explain the recording process, introduce the camera position, introduce the audience representatives, and soon enter the official recording site.

Zhang Bin is a very experienced presenter, he is also a producer and director, he speaks humorously, eloquently, and well-informed, and quickly eliminates the tension of the guests.

After introducing Yang Yun, Zhang Bin asked, "When did Yang always start paying attention to football?" ”

Yang Yun thought for a while: "In the Asian qualifiers for the World Cup in 89, the Chinese team lost to the United Arab Emirates and Qatar and missed the World Cup. ”

Zhang Ming took over and introduced: "Maybe the audience and friends don't know very well, the owner of the Spanish First Division La Coruna Football Club is Mr. Yang. Let's show you a video of A Coruña's introduction. ”

Introducing the club and then introducing the youth players, Fan Zhiyi and Hao Haidong, the two internationals, spoke one after another, telling their feelings about playing in the Spanish First Division.

Zhang Bin commented on the training video materials provided by Deportivo La Coruna, as well as the highlights of the First Division, the League Cup and the Copa del Rey, and finally took out the precious video of the last game of the 94 season, lost to Barcelona, and won the league runner-up.

In this way, step by step, the specific situation of Laco was introduced in simple terms, the possibility of Chinese players going overseas for youth training was discussed, and the growth of young players abroad was commented on.

At the end of the program, Zhang Bin jokingly asked: "You may not know that Long-Sports is the biggest sponsor of this station, in addition to La Liga Deportivo Club, Longteng also bought the American NBA team Minnesota Timberwolves, and sponsored the upcoming 1995 Dakar Rally." ”

Yang Yun smiled: "For more information, please pay attention to the sports channel NBA live broadcast, as well as the Dakar Rally special program!" ”

Everyone laughed and gave a thumbs up! (To be continued......)
