Chapter 6 The Shengda Conference
Speaking of Shengda headquarters, it is a paradise for "degenerates". The geniuses of the fallen have gathered in this fifty-story nest. But here itself is not engaged in game program development, but in game publishing decisions. So it is conceivable that this 50-storey building is just a signboard of Shengda's financial resources.
A group of people are meeting inside this "signboard". In the crowd was a half-centenarian with gray hair and messy hair, and despite his messy hair, his suit was so neat. The thin face and sharp eyes couldn't hide the wisdom he hid in his brain, because except for him, almost all of the people present were fat people, even if a few were not fat enough to be the shape of a rice bucket, but looking at them could make people think of a rice bucket.
I only heard one of the rice buckets say: "Dr. Shars, I personally respect your scientific and technological achievements and respect your character even more." But we have a contract first, and if we break the contract just because of my respect for you, then what character do we have to talk about? ”
At this time, the half-centenarian with unkempt hair replied: "Chairman, members of the board of directors, I reiterate once again that I have not failed to fulfill my responsibilities in accordance with our contract, on the contrary, my objection is precisely the performance of the contract. "It turns out that this half-centenarian is Dr. Sarmas, no wonder the hairstyle is like a chicken nest, as if every Frankenstein is a chicken that lays a lot of eggs. And the person who argued with him was the chairman of Shengda Game Development Company.
Speaking of the chairman of Shengda Game Company, I'm afraid there is no gamer who doesn't know him, this person's name is strict, and it sounds like a name that has been put together before he was born. Oh, or maybe the linguists invented the term and waited for such a person to be born. Strict is the slightly more outstanding of the many fat people, because he is not so fat, like a goat and a pig sitting together. Yan continued: "Our contract stipulates that you own the development rights of this game, and Shengda has the publishing rights. This means that you don't own the game. Then the problem is clear, since you have developed it, it is our business whether you will issue it or not, I don't know if you don't understand it or deliberately make it difficult. ”
Dr. Sars took a breath helplessly, held the lower pegga with his hand, and said after a while: "The stability of the game console still needs to be investigated, and you are rushing to the market like this, in case ...... If something goes wrong, the damage to the company's reputation is far greater than the benefits that this console brings to the company. I would like to ask all of you here, is it the responsibility of the developer or the issuer for all these consequences? ”
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say. After a long time, one person finally broke the deadlock, this person stood up, propped his hands on the table, and said a little less seriously: "What else can it fail?" Which network company's products are not all first introduced to the market, and then slowly upgraded, and slowly improved. We don't launch it first to seize the market, if other game development companies develop it and seize the market, it will be a real loss. ”
"Director Li obviously didn't think about this game console in detail," it turned out that the person who broke the deadlock was Director Li. Seeing that Director Li did not reply, Dr. Sars lowered his tone and said solemnly after a while: "This is a game that is operated by connecting the neurons of the human brain, and it is not the rigid and broken iron of the past. Neurons, neurons. Dr. Sarsa, emphasizing the last three neurons, also circled his head twice with his hands. Judging by his tone and movements, he knew that he wanted to make this sentence more serious, but obviously no one understood his words deeply.
The chairman is no exception, and he did not deeply understand Dr. Shas's heart. He only thought about how to convince Dr. Sars, and then stopped talking about it all day. In any case, the final decision is in the hands of the chairman. Therefore, the chairman of the board of directors followed Director Li's words and said: "What Director Li said is completely right, which network company's products are not all introduced to the market first to seize the market, and then slowly improved? We've already launched this console, and we've advertised it, and now it's really affecting the company's goodwill if we take it back. Look at the current orders are far higher than we expected, so what we have to do now and in the future is to improve, improve, and all this has to worry about you. Seeing that no one responded, the chairman continued: "I think it's decided, don't you think it's a waste of time to enjoy coffee and wine when you talk about such a thing in a meeting all day." After the chairman finished speaking, he walked to Dr. Sars and wanted to shake hands with Dr. Sars, but his hand was stretched out, and Dr. Shaws did not say anything. The chairman had no choice but to say: "I don't think there is any need to raise hands to vote, this meeting has been held for so many days, and every time it is approved by the board of directors." ”
Dr. Sarsashi sighed, and reluctantly reached out and shook it harshly. He said softly, "I hope everything goes well." ”
Yan Xiancheng smiled and said, "You are always the person I respect the most. ”
Director Li, who had interjected before, stood up and pulled the belt on his fat belly, he was not tightening the belt buckle, nor was he loosening the belt buckle, this was just a habitual action of his, every time he made this action, he indicated that he was leaving, and then everyone would stare at his duck pace and roll their eyes. Isn't it just a member of the board of directors, why does everyone love to pay attention to him? This has to start with identity. In the eyes of the outside world, Shengda Game Company is a game empire built by those former brothers who are strictly led, but it is different internally, the game empire is strictly built, but this huge game empire has a black hand that is subverting its direction at any time, that is, the military of this continent, and the military and Shengda have an inexhaustible clue. Most of Shengda's earnings are in the military, and this director Li is the military's resident adviser to Shengda, it doesn't matter whether he is a market consultant or a decision-making consultant, the important thing is that the company's senior management should respect him for three points.
Director Li's name is Li Shuangyue, and the member of the board of directors is only his superficial position, to put it bluntly, he is a money official who is in Shengda to monitor Shengda's income. In the military, his rank is colonel, in fact, many people in the military know that his colonel has long exceeded the rank of lieutenant general, of course, not because on the surface he is more wealthy or powerful than those lieutenant generals.
After everyone stared at Li Shuangyue's duck steps and shook their eyes, they got up and retreated.
The meeting was broken up like this, but in fact the meeting had been going on for many days, and every day it was discussing an issue. The reason is that Dr. Sarsashi is not in favor of putting this game console on the market now, he feels that this is a game that connects the operation of brain neurons, there are potential risks, and it is irrational to launch a game without fully grasping the potential risks of the game itself. However, the board of directors of Shengda Games felt that it should seize the market as soon as possible. As a developer and publisher, there may be nothing wrong with what they are doing, but sometimes there is such a thing as paradoxes in this world.
After everyone came down to the Shengda headquarters building, they were busy returning to their comfortable villas. Some members of the board of directors even traveled thousands of miles to attend the decision-making meeting. After discussing it for so many days, it felt like something that had been discussed on the first day, but it was a waste of time to talk about it so many times. Only Dr. Sarsa, who seemed to be in a heavy mood and pressed his legs, which was already unable to walk, walked alone at the rear, and when he walked out of the building, everyone scattered.
Dr. Sars looked around for a moment, then turned to look up at the Shengda headquarters. The sunlight made his eyes slitted in two and caressed the wrinkles of varying shades. After a long time, Dr. Sars said meaningfully, "When God created us, we will do the rest for him." ”
