Chapter 553: Drawing Men from Europe to Do a Big Job
Early in the morning, just after dawn, Pete, the leader of the bullfrog studio, was lying on the bed, the phone rang, it was the company calling, he laboriously pushed away his girlfriend who was muttering in his arms, sat on the edge of the bed and rubbed his temples.
Half an hour later, I went to the company to participate in the conference call, the initiator of the meeting was Longteng Shanghai R&D Center, and the CEO Yang Yun personally named and notified, Pete did not dare to slack off, staggered to the bathroom, and washed his head with cold water, so that his head could sober up faster.
Before seven o'clock, Pete drove to the company, he saw Tuzolev who had just parked the car, the two laughed and walked out of the parking lot, and found Zhang Guoqiang and a group of them also walking from the staff dormitory area provided by the company.
The French don't love work very much, their values are like this, they can sleep until three poles a day, and only go to work at 9 o'clock, even if the hard-working Chinese come here, they are more or less affected, basically no one shows up at 8 o'clock on weekdays, so today everyone seems to have no good rest, full of sleepiness.
In fact, what is even harder is Xiao Liangyu and the other staff of Longteng, Xiao Liangyu is on call 24 hours a day, after he received Yang Yun's call, he notified all relevant personnel one by one, and communicated directly with Yang Yun, he had to report his work and prepare for the meeting in advance.
The secretary on duty was even busier early, calling the cook, preparing coffee and drinks for everyone, and telling them to bring breakfast, because according to previous experience, I don't know when this meeting will be held.
At 7 a.m. Paris time and 1 p.m. China time, the meeting started on time.
"I'm sorry to wake everyone up so early!" Yang Yun's voice came, and the first sentence was to apologize.
Everyone could hear that Yang Yun was a little tired. At this time, it was also the most sleepy time of the day, and Yang Yun had an in-depth discussion with Blizzard people for several hours at the Shanghai R&D center. They were too busy to stop for a meal at lunchtime, and they had too many ideas to exchange and discuss. It was a collision of ideas, the more you talked, the more passionate you became, but after the passion was tiredness.
Xiao Liangyu said: "Mr. Yang, you are in such a hurry, something big must have happened, and we all understand it." ”
Tuzorev is an interesting person: "I have been looking forward to the company's breakfast coffee for a long time...... Xie Lu Xie Linda! He gave Linda, the secretary who brought the coffee, a wink and a joke at the right time, causing everyone to chuckle and lighten up the atmosphere in the conference room.
Yang Yun is no longer hypocritical. Straight to the point, he said: "The Shanghai R&D Center will set up a number of new games, and I have already informed Mr. Xiao in advance that some people will be transferred from your European branch back to Shanghai, so I want to hear your thoughts." ”
Then, he told the situation of the three games, which immediately made Pete and Zhang Guoqiang's faces look very good.
Pete is a little embarrassed, he really didn't notice the internal emails of the company, he has been playing LongChat lately, and he always likes to mingle in various chat communities in his free time. Talk to your friends, move between other chat apps, learn the strengths of each, and make your own thoughts. Submit suggestions for improvement to LongChat.
He didn't expect that in just a few days, the Blizzard gang would think of "Theme Hospital" from "Theme Park", which is what their Bullfrog Studio is best at.
The same is true for Zhang Guoqiang. He had just become familiar with the Warhammer Middle Ages, and he didn't expect to deal with Warhammer 40,000 again. Of course, he knows the hardships and hardships involved.
"Mr. Yang, in fact, our Bullfrog Studio also thought of the game of the theme hospital. But we've been busy working on a full campaign version of Spec Ops lately, so the development of the themed set has pretty much come to a halt. ”
"Okay, why don't you hand over the work, leave some people to continue to develop "Special Forces", you come to Shanghai to communicate with Marcos, and first set up the structure of "Theme Hospital". The poor here is an experienced architect, and you also have the right to come to China for a vacation, bring your girlfriend, one month is enough! ”
The proposal of a vacation made Pete quite excited, all the expenses were covered by the company, the expatriate type and high subsidies, the "Special Forces" project was only left with trivial and complicated plot settings and modification bugs, and script production is not what Pete is best at, he can go to China with his hands.
And when it comes to themed game series, no one thinks more than him, which is what he is most proud of, and he doesn't want others to meddle in this matter from the bottom of his heart.
"OK, I'll go back and talk to Lindsay in the evening, she should be interested!"
"Why wait until the evening? Go call now, and if you can, you'll be in first class to China today! ”
When Pete left his seat and walked out of the room to call his girlfriend, Zhang Guoqiang asked with some surprise: "Mr. Yang, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Yang Yun replied with a smile: "People must have at least two impulses in their lives, one for desperate love, and one for a trip that says go. ”
"Haha......ha
Everyone is familiar with English, this sentence is quite philosophical, and many people joke that they must write it down, so that they will have a good excuse when they pursue their girlfriend in the future or don't want to go to work.
"Guoqiang, your group will also hand over, leave "Saloman: Red Alert" to more reliable people to continue, and then you all come back, and the project of "Warcraft 2" has been restarted."
Zhang Guoqiang is happy, at his level, it is difficult to be interested in boring and repetitive coding work after being well-informed, the "Red Alert" project has already set the script, and there is a general outline sent by the editorial department of Longteng headquarters, they only need to use the game chapter by chapter, in his opinion, this is really a job with no technical content at all.
"No problem! As soon as the meeting is over, I will also leave...... Zhang Guoqiang said with a smile.
Everyone chuckled, Xiao Qing and they looked at Zhang Guoqiang enviously, sure enough, the treatment of old employees is different, everyone is working for Longteng, but experienced old employees can be transferred at any time, first-class treatment, if there is a new game, the first one, will not be so skilled in coding work to these new employees who have not been in the company for a long time.
The six members of their JCDecaux studio have been working in Paris for many years, and they are even about to integrate into this society, and they have changed their visas one after another, but there is still not much progress, there is no hope of naturalization, and it is impossible to return to China.
Thinking that there was nothing to do with him today, Xiao Qing's thoughts couldn't help but fly a little farther, and suddenly heard Yang Yun ask, "Xiao Qing, what has your JCDecaux studio been busy with lately?" ”
Xiao Qing, who was named, was full of excitement and quickly replied: "We are divided into two groups, and we are responsible for the coding of "Special Forces" and "Red Alert" at the same time. ”
"Draw three people back and join the projects of the three new games and learn from the whole process. You can't always do coding, I need you to grow fast and move into more important positions! ”
"Huh? What a shame! What a shame! ”
This is the rhythm to be promoted!
Xiao Qing's excited face bloomed with a smile, and he was overjoyed, stammering and hurriedly agreeing.
Others looked envious, Tuzorev sat beside him, stretched out his furry arm and patted him on the shoulder, and sighed: "Young man, work hard, you can be valued by Mr. Yang, that is a blessing that you can't ask for!" ”
Xiao Liangyu was also full of approval, and said with a smile: "Xiao Qing, the opportunity is rare, I am afraid that there is only such a good opportunity in this life, you must seize it!" You are all top students of USTC and Fudan, I believe you have such strength, I am optimistic about you! ”
Looking at Xiao Qing, who was almost crying with excitement, many colleagues gave him a thumbs up and were sincerely happy for him.
There is a reason why Xiao Qing is excited, JCDecaux Game Software Company was absorbed by Longteng in the first batch of support plans in the capital, and six high-achieving students from the University of Science and Technology of China and Fudan set up a company with full of enthusiasm, and applied for a loan of 100,000 yuan from Qian Deliang, director of the Animation and Game Industrial Park.
At first, it was the despair of not seeing the future, and it was only after being acquired by Yang Yun that he came to the door to get out of the trough of his career, and then he honestly did the underlying coding in the R&D center in Paris, France for two years, like a sword that has been polished for many years, and now it finally shows its edge, and is brandished by Yang Yun, and has the opportunity to show their brilliance to the world, which is really a glory that life may never reappear!
Yang Yun heard everyone's reaction, and smiled: "Don't be so excited, gold will always shine, I chose your Degao from so many companies back then, because I took a fancy to your potential." ”
Xiao Qing choked up a little: "Mr. Yang...... I, we will certainly live up to your hopes! The sword/edge is sharpened, the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, we are ready to serve the dragon at any time! ”
"Tsk, it's really worthy of being a top student of a prestigious school, and the export is a chapter!"
"Yes, Team Leader Xiao, I can still recite poetry after coming to France for so many years!"
"This time you go back, bring your French girlfriend back too, the combination of China and France is another beautiful conversation!"
"Team Leader Xiao's girlfriend is beautiful and has a good family background, that's called an excellent, bring it back with an absolutely high-end atmosphere and grade!"
"That's it! Mr. Yang, you should also care more about the lives of your employees, right? How much fun it would be to give each single employee a wife first, and then have a wife talent contest within the company! ”
"Ha Lu Ha ......"
The more everyone talked, the happier they became, and Yang Yun deliberately snorted coldly: "What are you anxious about? My personal life hasn't been settled yet, who will send me a wife? ”
For a moment, the laughter was louder.
After Pete came back, everything was almost in place, Xiao Liangyu and Tuzolev stayed to guard the base camp, Pete Zhang Guoqiang and Xiao Qing and they were almost eight or nine people who took the plane back to Shanghai on the same day, the secretary had already booked air tickets for them, and the visa matter was better said, Longteng Company had never been embarrassed by diplomats.
Go for it!
