Chapter 215: I'm Quitting!
7.12.
On the second day of the release of "Bloody Scientist", in the office of the CEO of Techgame Network, Mr. An looked at the sales report in his hand and turned pale.
On the other side of the desk, Yang Ying.
At this time, he was standing tremblingly in the middle of the office, with a bitter and nervous face.
The huge president's office is surprisingly quiet at this moment.
The atmosphere is extremely oppressive.
Yang Ying could only hear his restless heartbeat and the traffic outside.
Looking at Mr. An, whose face was hard to see that could condense water, he felt that his breathing was a little difficult.
"Yang Gong."
"In! Mr. An..."
In front of the president's table, Mr. An put down the sales report of the game and looked directly at Yang Ying with an indifferent face.
"With a development budget of more than 6 million, plus an advertising budget of 2 million, you have made such a result for me?"
There was a soft snap.
Mr. An slapped the sales report in his hand on the table and opened his mouth to question.
And Yang Ying bowed his head silently, not daring to look at him.
Because he himself knows what the 24-hour sales of "Bloody Scientist" are.
A total of 10,446 sets...
That's more than 10,000 data.
If you don't deduct taxes, it's more than 4 million, and if you deduct taxes, you don't even have 4 million.
It's a big loss!
Yang Ying knew that he was helpless, his expression was silent, and he didn't know how to respond.
As a result, in the eyes of Mr. An, it is a manifestation of incompetence!
"I'm asking you! Why not answer!? Well? “
In the quiet office, this sudden loud question made Yang Ying tremble lightly and raise his head in cringe.
When he saw Mr. An's increasingly pale face, he clenched his fists and responded with a sigh.
"I'm sorry... Mr. An... I..."
"Excuse me?"
Before Yang Ying finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Mr. An.
"Did I call you here to hear you talk like this nonsense?"
"Aren't you supposed to tell me why you used the company's money to make such a money-losing thing?"
"Your presentation and your ideas were very good when the whole group was in a meeting, and now this thing is not profitable, what is the problem?"
"I want you to report to me right away!"
3 consecutive iron-faced questioning, so that Yang Ying, who was in the middle of the office, was speechless.
He opened his mouth to answer.
But when he saw Mr. An's indifferent eyes, he shrank down.
Mr. An...
The problem is not that there is a link on...
It's out of your own thoughts...
The game will have such a result, and it is entirely thanks to you!
If it weren't for your interference in game development for the sake of competition and profit, "Bloody Scientist" would not have such a result at all.
Now, because of you, everything is a joke.
The efforts of all 30 or so of our group were worthless in an instant.
You never look at the process, you only look at the market and the results, and you only look at the data reports that others have put together and submitted to you.
The game has such problems, it's all because of you...
Yang Ying sighed in his heart.
Of course, he didn't dare to say these words.
He also didn't think that Ann would be aware that it was his own problem.
Therefore, the failure of the game, he had anticipated before the release.
A game that cuts the development cycle and level content, resulting in no time to optimize, is also rejected by players.
Yang Ying even felt that the first-day sales of more than 10,000 were mostly due to promotion.
Because if it weren't for the promotion of those 2 million and the publicity of the operation team, the game might have sold thousands.
So...
Yang Ying sighed in his heart again.
He was tired, and he didn't want to live in such a humble way anymore.
He looked at Mr. An's indifferent face and responded softly.
The tone also flowed at this moment, no longer submissive.
"Mr. An, I'm really sorry, I personally think that the problem of the game's failure is mainly in the development cycle."
"If we can give more time to develop and optimize, we may be able to make a game that satisfies the market."
"At the same time, we don't want to be interfered with by other factors, which would make our work redundant and waste time."
As soon as Yang Ying finished speaking, Mr. An responded loudly.
"You mean, the game will fail because the company doesn't have enough time? And I interfered in your development process, right? Well? ”
"Are you blaming us? Well? ”
In the face of Mr. An's aggressiveness, Yang Ying also changed his normality, his voice raised slightly, and he responded calmly.
"Not at all!"
"Mr. An, I don't mean to blame the company and you, on the contrary, I am very grateful to the company for trusting me and allowing me to lead the team to develop horror games!"
"But now, as the person in charge of the game, now that it's happened, I don't think we should dwell on the reasons for the failure. It's about looking to the future, trying to update and optimize the game as much as it was originally envisioned. ”
After Yang Ying finished speaking, he looked at Mr. An calmly.
The two met their eyes at this moment, and neither let anyone.
In the office of Nuoda, there was silence.
Only the traffic outside kept ringing.
At this time, Mr. An smiled.
It's a sneer.
"It's a mid-to-high-cost game, and it's the second scrap product that the company has failed to test the waters."
"Since it's scrap, do you think I'm going to let people continue to spend time on this thing?"
"Do you want to update optimizations? Do you want to make it the stage it was originally envisioned? This is already a waste product, and no matter how much effort is spent on the waste product, it is still a waste product. ”
"Yang Gong, is this any significance? Well? ”
After Mr. An finished speaking, he leaned back in his chair, and already lay down tactically, looking directly at Yang Ying.
The latter nodded silently and opened his mouth in response.
"This game is the brainchild of our jumping team, and we created it by working overtime day and night. As the person in charge, I should be fully responsible, and I should give an explanation to the market and players. ”
"I can't just leave everything at that, we keep updating things before they are finished, and we work overtime to fix bugs. We want to use actions to improve the quality of the game, and use actions to save the reputation of technical games. ”
"I think the main thing right now is..."
"But it's still a scrap."
Mr. An interrupted Yang Ying, and said lightly in just one sentence.
Then he cocked Erlang's legs, his head slightly sideways, and looked at Yang Ying.
"What's the use of you being here to be excited? After spending so much time, money, and manpower, the things made are not as good as the daily flow of mobile games of other groups after selling for a day. ”
"You go and ask the heads of other groups, how much money do they make for the company when you are talking about what reputation and quality you are talking about?"
"If you go and take a look at the mobile game projects that other groups are responsible for, which one spent more than 6 million?"
"Do you know what your remarks made me think?"
Yang Ying was silent and did not answer.
And Mr. An got up slightly, his elbows against the table, and his ten fingers interlocked and dragged his chin.
"You're introducing me to a non-profitable thing that costs a lot of money, time, and manpower to make."
"It's like a college student in a job market who comes to job with his ridiculous garbage."
Hearing this, Yang Ying's face changed slightly, but then he quickly retracted and looked directly at Mr. An.
At this moment, he already understood what he was about to usher in.
Inside, there is no harmony.
There is competition between the various development groups.
The company's resources are limited, and the wolves are more and less meaty.
Whoever has the most resources will be the leader.
The jumping group led by Yang Ying has lost two games in a row, causing a lot of losses to the company.
Today's interview, from the very beginning, was not about accountability, but...
Trial!
Or even a trial that has already had a result!
Thinking of this, Yang Ying smiled in his heart.
After knowing the result, even if it was obviously a criticism, he felt a little relieved.
"If the project fails, I should have a certain amount of responsibility, and I admit it, and I will also be responsible."
"But Mr. An, a stand-alone game is not a finished product that you don't care about after it is done like before, but like an online game, it needs to be patched and maintained, and the user experience needs to be investigated and then optimized at any time."
"I have the ability and the heart to perfect this game. What I need is the support and trust of the company and you, not the arrogance and insult that you have always had. ”
"I have a responsibility to try to make a profit for the company, I didn't do it, and I apologize. But I also want to use time to prove the value of this game's existence. ”
Speaking of this, Yang Ying took a step forward, looked at Mr. An, and spoke sonorously.
Title, and no longer with respect.
"Mr. An, if you come to me just to count me down and devalue me, then you don't have to."
""Bloody Scientist" is the bloody work of all members of our jumping group, it can be bad, it can be scolded, but you can't."
"Because it will be in the current situation, and it is completely inseparable from your wise guidance."
"It's not a waste product in your mouth, it's still valuable, it needs time to precipitate and polish, and it needs to correct the mistakes that occur because of your requirements."
...
...
Once again, the office fell silent.
Both were silent.
Mr. An stared at Yang Ying, his face was extremely pale.
The hands that had been interlocked with ten fingers were also put down.
On the other hand, Yang Ying was much calmer.
It was as if he had been lifted from his burden, and he was stress-free.
Even when he looked at Mr. An, he didn't care a little.
At this moment, Mr. An's computer made a soft sound.
It is an e-mail tone.
Mr. An glanced at Yang Ying, turned his head and touched the mouse to check the email information.
The waiting time added to the already oppressive atmosphere in the office.
A minute later, Mr. An took a deep breath, put away his ugly face, and looked at Yang Ying with his eyes.
"The precipitation and polishing of time? Yang Gong, you don't have time now. ”
"Just now, the manager of the operations department sent me an e-mail, saying that the Internet is full of criticism of the games you make."
"Do you know what that means?"
"It means that we also need to ask the PR team to eliminate the negative impact of your game on the company, which is another expense."
"As the person in charge, you led the team to fail two projects in a row during your tenure, which affected the company's reputation twice and caused a lot of losses to the company."
"Companies now need to re-evaluate your capabilities to see if you really have what it takes to lead a team and the value of generating revenue."
"During the inspection, the jump team was disbanded and all the personnel were reorganized. Those who have enough ability are merged into other groups, and those who are not enough are dismissed. ”
"As the person in charge, I will arrange for you to join other teams to assist in the work. As for your game, please don't waste any more of your company's resources. ”
Hearing this, Yang Ying smiled.
"Mr. An, don't be so troublesome."
"Because I... Really tired. ”
With that, Yang Ying turned his head and walked out of the office.
His behavior has already expressed his meaning to Mr. An.
That is, Lao Tzu is gone!
