Chapter 1 Dismissal

Next Chapter

"Xiao Ye, you have to let your team refuel again, our company is counting on this Dragon Ball mobile game to make a profit, and now that many advertisements have been released, you can't fail to deliver the goods."

In front of the boss of the game company is a young man with thick dark circles, his name is Ye Xun, 25 years old this year, and he is the main programming person in charge of the Dragon Ball mobile game "Dragon Ball: Evolution of the Gods".

Ye Xun was a dead house when he was a student, but because he had a high talent in programming, he was an out-and-out technical nerd.

However, this project is too rushed, Ye Xun himself has been working overtime for a month, but the results he has come up with still cannot achieve the expected effect.

In the face of the boss's questioning, Ye Xun cheered up and patiently explained: "Boss, there are too many Dragon Ball mobile games on the market now, if we want to kill a piece of the world, our mobile game must have distinctive characteristics in addition to being meticulous, and now I am overcoming the character lineage upgrade system in this mobile game, as long as some programming technical problems are successfully overcome, it can be clearly different from other Dragon Ball mobile games." ”

After listening to the explanation, the game boss sighed deeply, "Xiaoye, it's good for you young people to have ideals, but you know that we have invested considerable financial resources in order to win the copyright of this Dragon Ball adapted mobile game and the largest operator channel, and time can't wait for the ideal." ”

Ye Xun was distressed in his heart, and as a techno-obsessive-compulsive dead house, he couldn't forgive himself for being perfunctory to his favorite "Dragon Ball".

And the boss continued: "If you really follow your assumptions, in the world setting of Dragon Ball, add a martial arts upgrade system and a bloodline upgrade system, wouldn't it be to overturn the original plan of the planning team?" ”

Ye Xun knew that if he couldn't convince his boss, these excellent settings would not be implemented at all.

He coughed and said proudly, "The Dragon Ball mobile games on the market today are basically under the banner of 'becoming a Super Saiyan and fighting side by side', and then carry out an adventure similar to the manga plot. But the problem is that no one has ever thought of building new character settings under the framework of the original world of Dragon Ball, and these new characters don't necessarily have to go on adventures with Sun Wukong and them. ”

"Actually, I have studied the world setting of Dragon Ball, and found that there are a lot of magic that can be dug deeper, and it stands to reason that the story background is also very large, which can completely allow newcomers to start a new story around the legend of Dragon Ball, but because the Super Saiyans are too dazzling, we always ignore a lot of plots worth recalling."

Although Ye Xun elaborated his point of view in detail, the game boss shot back impatiently: "Xiao Ye, Xiao Ye, you won't forget that the core soul of Dragon Ball is the character of Monkey King, if you don't go on an adventure with Son Goku, can this still be called Dragon Ball?" ”

"If there are no Super Saiyans like Son Goku, Vegeta, and Taranks, players will buy it?!"

However, what I didn't expect was that no matter how the boss persuaded him, Ye Xun still retorted with the old point of view without humility or arrogance: "With all due respect, there is only one main core soul in the Dragon Ball world: Dragon Ball." Everything else doesn't matter at all, including Super Saiyans. ”

As soon as these words came out, the boss was full of helplessness, this Ye Xun is a young and vigorous idealist, and he has always emphasized the same argument with him in the past year: the core of Dragon Ball is Dragon Ball, and Sun Wukong can play soy sauce.

"If you really make it according to your idea, all our company's investment will have to be wasted, obviously there are turtle school qigong, realm king fist and vitality bomb, these famous skills are enough, you have to learn what martial arts world exercises the characters in it, isn't this inexplicable?"

The boss saw that Ye Xun was very stubborn, and he couldn't help but get angry, he was a businessman, he only valued interests, not ideals, and the world of idealists could not tolerate money transactions.

"One more thing I've always wanted to ask you, what is the setting of this super-earthling? Is there such a setting in the manga? ”

Ye Xun saw that the boss's mood was wrong, so he could only quickly and seriously replied: "Boss, I personally think that this super earthling setting is the finishing touch of the entire mobile game, why can this universe only have Saiyans to awaken into a super form, or even a god form?" Are earthlings destined to be an inferior race? That's what I'm saying there's so much to dig into. ”

"Just imagine, isn't it the biggest selling point to let players control the characters of the beautiful boys and girls on the earth to evolve their bloodlines and upgrade their martial arts little by little in the game?"

The boss really couldn't stand Ye Xun's taking it for granted, he slapped the table and shouted hoarsely: "Enough! You won't be responsible for this project from today! I've signed a new game team to make this Dragon Ball mobile game, you can rest, as for the money, we can discuss it another day, after all, it's you who delayed the progress of the whole project, you can't let me pay the full termination fee! ”

Seeing that the boss fired him directly, Ye Xun almost stumbled and couldn't stand firmly, but he endured it without having a seizure, he sighed heavily, in fact, it only takes one more month to perfect the entire procedure, but the businessmen are already impatient.

"Xiao Ye, we are relatives to give you so much time and opportunities, but you should understand my pursuit, please understand me, at least I have given you enough time to complete your ideals, but it's a pity that your ideals have not been able to stay at the same frequency as my pursuit, you take your program code home to rest, you won't use it tomorrow, I will talk to you about the details of the termination of the contract later."

Perhaps realizing his gaffe, the boss hurriedly added the latter sentence, but Ye Xun shook his head and left without speaking.

When he announced the dissolution of the Dragon Ball mobile game production team, the members couldn't help but shed tears, and it wasn't all because they lost their jobs, as long as the technology was there for young people, there were many IT companies, and it was more just a sadness that an ideal could not be realized.

After Ye Xun returned home with his computer, as soon as he entered the door, he seemed to be drained of all his strength, he knew that this boss was a pure businessman who just wanted to make the game on the shelves as soon as possible, he didn't care if this mobile game had any characteristics, as long as he could make a lot of money after being put on the shelves, he would leave after making money.

"It's me who is naïve, I am so naïve, I am naïve."

Ye Xun took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, sat down at the computer desk and drank it, he looked at a desktop on the computer screen where Sun Wukong transformed into the god of Super Saiyans, and fell into a trance.

After a while, I only heard him muttering: "What's so great about the Super Saiyan God, those monks in the fantasy novel who turned the world upside down and ascended to the shattered realm, any one of them can destroy you." "Dragon Ball", a world setting that only relies on combat power and destructive power to measure whether it is strong or not, is itself the lowest end of the universe, no matter how powerful your Turtle School Qigong is, what can you do? Won the two-way foil or the mountain and river diagram? ”

Ye Xun drank a few bottles of wine and began to talk nonsense at the computer, if it was heard by others, he probably couldn't help but laugh out loud, because Ye Xun was talking about some unconvincing childish words.

For example, "If I were in the Dragon Ball world, I wouldn't let a Saiyan sing a one-man show." ”

As he spoke, Ye Xun's consciousness began to blur, he only felt that he was very tired, his eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and fell desperately, before his eyes fell into darkness, what he saw was still the desktop where Sun Wukong had become a super saiyan god.

On this silent night, Ye Xun's heart also stopped beating, and then the computer also fell into a black screen of death, which could never be turned on again.

On July 13, 2017, the famous game developer Ye Xun passed away peacefully at home at the age of 25, and his inheritance was all inherited by his parents.
