17 February 2005. The ninth day of the first lunar month. Thursday.

The weather was sunny and windless.

Half past eight in the morning.

The gate of the Gujia factory.

Gu Wei smiled and looked at the big red firecrackers placed by the employees at the door, today is the day when the factory officially went to work, the workers came to the factory early in the morning, and after cleaning, they gathered at the gate of the factory, waiting for the boss Gu Wei to light the firecrackers.

Today is also the day when the employees of the bright era end their formal work after the holiday, Huang Anguo and Su Xiaoya also gathered at the door with a group of programming apes and artists, looking at the lively scene with a smile.

It's been a very comfortable year. Huang Anguo took Su Xiaoya back to his hometown for the New Year for the first time, and during this period, he naturally inevitably compared the children between relatives. The comparison between relatives may be without malice, but the blow to people is all-round.

Huang Anguo chose to start a business after graduation and lost more than 100,000 yuan, and his relatives have become a laughing stock. When I went home to the relatives for a gathering this time, someone teasingly asked Huang Anguo what kind of work he is doing now, and how many years will it take to earn back the hundreds of thousands of dollars he lost? Huang Anguo looked calm, and pretended to say that the money he lost had been earned, and the two of them had a surplus of more than 100,000 yuan.

This stunned everyone, Huang Anguo "modestly" said that he followed the right boss, the company launched two popular games, and then the year-end bonus for him and Su Xiaoya was 200,000.

Gu Cancan was indeed benevolent to Huang Anguo and Su Xiaoya. Relying on the memory in the brain, the income of the two games is more than 20 million, and the main credit is naturally Gu Cancan, but it also depends on Su Xiaoya's technical talent and management ability to successfully complete the development, especially during this period of time, Gu Cancan asked for the development of many Happy Farm copycat versions on a whim, all relying on Su Xiaoya's overall planning, multi-threaded work, and the maximum reasonable arrangement of everyone's workload, in order to complete these developments before the year. As for Huang Anguo, Gu Cancan may have seen a trace of his original shadow from him, and he took care of him, and Huang Anguo managed the company in an orderly manner, which is also very creditable. So in the end, Gu Cancan proudly gave the two a year-end bonus of 200,000 yuan.

Huang Anguo came to the company early in the morning, cleaned up the office with the employees, and then rushed to the door, stood with Gu Wei, chatted quietly, and was full of hope for the future.

At nine o'clock, with Gu Wei's order, the festive firecrackers crackled, the smoke of gunpowder dispersed, and the sound of firecrackers ended, Gu Wei said loudly: "It's good to open!" ”

"It's a good start!" The employees shouted in unison.

The sun was shining warmly, and everyone's eyes were full of hope.

……

Happy Farm has exceeded everyone's expectations, and even during the Chinese New Year, the phenomenon of stealing vegetables is still in full swing, and Tencent's QQ Space has quickly gained a large number of customers, becoming the blog with the largest number of users in China. In this fiery event with almost universal participation, the bright era of Happy Farm's development company has finally been excavated and exposed to the media.

Considering that Gu Cancan is still just a child, even if she wants to become an Internet celebrity. After discussing with his father, Gu Cancan is still hidden as a hidden boss, Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng, Gu Wei doesn't want Gu Cancan to appear in front of the public as a successful entrepreneur at such a young age.

Therefore, when the media found Qingjiang City, Gu Wei, as the boss of the bright era, came forward and was interviewed.

In media reports, Gu Wei's experience is also legendary, he only graduated from junior high school, started from a small store, went to a factory with 200 employees, and then was defrauded of 6 million in cooperation with others to do business, with a debt of nearly 4 million, and then transformed and developed online games under heavy pressure and achieved great success, which can be called a middle-aged inspirational brother.

So this version was publicized by the media, and when it was bright, it was born as a dazzling dark horse image in the IT industry in 2004, and Gu Wei also became famous overnight, he himself has a very good image, handsome and chic, and a successful man's style, and became the idol of IT otaku for a while.

For this kind of scene, Gu Cancan is also happy to see, the Gu family's garment factory is trapped in equipment and technical limitations, in Gu Cancan's opinion, the achievement is just like that, unless a huge amount of money is invested in industrial upgrading. The garment industry is indeed very promising, and there are many related listed companies, but there is no garment industry cluster in Qingjiang City, and it is very difficult for Gujia's garment factory to develop into a giant enterprise. Gu Wei is now very interested in the IT industry, and has shown a certain talent, Gu Cancan now has money in his hands and good ideas in his head, and he is very supportive of Gu Wei's transformation into the IT industry.

Years later, the imitators of Happy Farm began to appear, and at this time, the bright era released ten games similar to Happy Farm in one go, and for a while people in the industry were confused, what the hell is this operation?

People in the industry think that Tencent is going crazy and wants to fight to the death with the bright era, but Gu Wei has already communicated with Tencent and made his intentions clear to Tencent, in fact, Gu Wei and Gu Cancan both hope that Tencent can buy these cottages in a big way, but Tencent is not stupid, after trying to understand all the joints, he expressed his attitude and let the bright era do things.

Ten cottages completely disrupted the rhythm of the imitators, including the ones who were about to imitate, they were desperate to find that the ideas they planned to launch were basically collided with this wave of cottages in the bright era, what pastures, fisheries, farmers, orchards, but everything that can be thought of, the bright era is made into rough products and put them on the Internet for free, and take other people's roads so that others have no way out!

These products have a little impact on Happy Farm, but because of the poor experience, users are scattered, and individual users find that no one interacts with them after using them, and eventually these become niche and are abandoned, and at the same time, other companies' cottages are basically just emerging or have not yet been brutally cut off, so this time Happy Farm is the biggest winner.

The bright era is really a god teammate, and Tencent is satisfied with it, don't want it.

Gu Cancan took the time to come to the factory, handed over her latest game plan to Su Xiaoya, and asked about the recruitment of the original artist by the way.

Huang Anguo tried his best to finally find a teenager who was interested in the original design of the game at the Academy of Arts, the boy's name is Chen Xiaofeng, he is very talented in painting, and his major is Chinese painting, but he is a serious Internet addict teenager, and his leisure time is usually spent playing games. I have played a lot of games, and I feel very interested in the graphic design of each game. Huang Anguo released a recruitment information on campus, he was originally a dead horse and a live horse doctor, and he didn't expect to recruit qualified original artists. And Chen Xiaofeng found that there was a recruitment of game original artists in a small place like Qingjiang City, and he was curious to contact it, only to find out that it was actually a bright era when Happy Farm was developed, and he was immediately in awe. Of course, he knows that he has to set an alarm clock every night recently, and he gets up in the middle of the night to pick vegetables and steal vegetables.

After Chen Xiaofeng and Huang Anguo came into contact, Huang Anguo was surprised to see the original game drawings he usually designed when he was bored, happiness came too suddenly, and Chen Xiaofeng's performance was beyond his imagination.

Now that the original artist in the company is also in place, Gu Cancan's plan has been released.

All the employees first signed a confidentiality agreement, and then curiously opened their own plan, and three big words appeared in front of them: Three Kingdoms Killing.

Yes, Gu Cancan finally made a move on the Three Kingdoms. After seeing Chen Xiaofeng's original design drawing, Gu Cancan only felt amazing, Chen Xiaofeng's level of performance is fully qualified for the original painting design of the Three Kingdoms, it depends on whether the picture he designed can meet Gu Cancan's requirements, and whether he can design the original version of the quaint feeling.

Su Xiaoya had a complete plan in her hand, she flipped through it, but looking at the plan, Su Xiaoya could judge that this was probably another game of very high quality, and she finally admitted that there were indeed geniuses in this world, and Gu Cancan belonged to the category of geniuses. In her opinion, the design of the Three Kingdoms Killing could not find a loophole at all (that was natural, the original time and space had been tempered thousands of times).

Next, some of the bright times were busy, and Su Xiaoya summoned the program apes and artists and began to divide and distribute tasks. Gu Cancan chatted with Chen Xiaofeng in detail, fully communicated his requirements with Chen Xiaofeng, and asked Chen Xiaofeng to try to design the sketch first. Huang Anguo continued to run various procedures and software copyright-related matters. Everyone began to work energetically at the beginning of the new year.

In the development of the Three Kingdoms, there are not enough existing programmers, Gu Cancan asked Huang Anguo to recruit people first, improve the company's department, at least build the human resources department first, and the CEO personally ran the recruitment, which is too grassy......

Everything is developing in an orderly manner, the structure of the bright era tends to be perfected, and the Three Kingdoms Killing tends to be perfected at the same time, Gu Cancan communicated well with Gu Wei and Huang Anguo, established a mobile game division in the company, and began to recruit mobile game-related talents.

The emergence of Mango mobile phone and Anbang mobile phone system has changed the process of mobile phone development, Anbang system is open source, and the ownership belongs to Mango Technology, only from this point of view, the future of Mango Technology is immeasurable.

Gu Cancan learned in detail during the holidays, and many technical masters in various countries have begun to study the Anbang system, and found that Anbang is unexpectedly mature, mature enough to be applied when it is used, not at all like it is produced by the Celestial Empire. Eagle Sauce's Google began to panic, they found that the Android they had invested heavily in was useless, and the Anbang system had swept the world in a hurricane, quickly making everyone too late to react, and it couldn't be contained.

The birth of Anbang's mobile phone operating system has made many people start to study the corresponding application software. Gu Cancan knows in his heart that it will be the world of mobile games in the future, and now it seems that Google's Android is likely to be stillborn, and the Anbang system is too mature.

Then the next mobile game division is a programmer for the Anbang system, which is more difficult to recruit than the original artist. Gu Cancan said to Huang Anguo that if he can't recruit in Qingjiang City, he will go to Beijing or Shanghai to set up a branch, after all, most of the 20 million funds obtained by Bright Times to sell Happy Farm are still lying in the company's account.

For Gu Cancan's whimsical thoughts, Gu Wei and Huang Anguo were already numb, there was no need to question why she had such thoughts, just consider this if she did what she wanted.

Go to Beijing or Shanghai to set up a branch, think about it is a very touching thing, Gu Wei and Huang Anguo are full of energy, after the family affairs are arranged, first go to Beijing, and then go to Shanghai, after a detailed investigation of the two parties, Shanghai for foreign investment in Shanghai high-tech companies more comprehensive preferential treatment, and finally the bright era mobile game division is set in Shanghai.

Just when Gu Wei, Huang Anguo and others were busy and began to work hard, it was time for Gu Cancan to start school.

……

24 February 2005. The sixteenth day of the first lunar month. Thursday.

The weather was cloudy.

Teacher Zhang, the head teacher of the first class, had a gloomy face like the weather, and on the first day of school, Gu Cancan, the seed player she had focused on, asked for leave.

When Gu Cancan was admitted to the first middle school and divided into a class, his score was the tail of the crane and ranked forty-fifth, but during the midterm exam in half a semester, Gu Cancan was admitted to the seventh in the class! Teacher Zhang found that Gu Cancan was a good seedling for learning, smart and quick-witted, and was planning to devote himself to training, Gu Cancan's painting style changed abruptly, and he no longer concentrated on studying, so he actually went to do a live broadcast of Lao Shizi! Is live streaming such a mess something as a high school girl should do? Sure enough, in the final exam of last semester, Gu Cancan considered the twenty-eight in the class, this is the end of not concentrating on studying, and Teacher Zhang was heartbroken.

Now Gu Cancan has intensified, and he asked for leave on the first day of school...... the reason for taking leave is actually to participate in the super girl's audition, what the hell is this reason! Her parents actually cooperated with the signing of the leave, don't you want the child's future? Teacher Zhang was heartbroken.

But the parents agreed that she could do anything, but it was a pity that there was a good seedling, alas, Teacher Zhang could only sigh regretfully in the end.

……

Zhengzhou.

Light snow.

Ma Dan's audition actually caught up with the snow, the sky was overcast, and I was not happy to look at it. Gu Cancan and Wang Yan complained about the bad weather. Although Wang Xiaoxiao accompanied Gu Cancan to sign up, it was obvious that Wang Xiaoxiao would not be able to participate in this kind of competition.

Super girl seems to be different from what she remembers, at least the game time has changed, Gu Cancan secretly complained in his heart, this Nima is too inhumane, just after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the audition will start, such a cold day, it is almost freezing to death. In other words, what is the reason for this butterfly effect?

Speaking of which, the Zhengzhou Division in 2005 was miserable enough, and none of the top 10 in Zhengzhou in the finals entered the top 10 in the country, which is simply weak and unscientific. Of course, it can also be a matter of luck and image.

However, this is good news for Gu Cancan, if the opponent in the Zhengzhou division is really weak, her chances of qualifying are too great.

(I always want to say a few words of nonsense...) Forget it, ask for a ticket. ）
