Chapter 44 Crazy Robert

But now there is indeed only one and a half hours left, and I don't know whether the original team over there will agree, this is really uncertain.

Los Angeles, in an apartment next to Caltech.

The mobile phone on the pillow next to Robert, who was sleeping soundly, kept vibrating. It had been a while, who would have been calling him.

Sleepy-eyed, he finally connected the call reluctantly after 5 minutes. When he heard that it was not an American, but English with a Chinese accent, he sat up suddenly, because his phone only saved A Chinese number, that is Ding Yong.

"Robert, I'm very sorry to disturb your rest at this time, but I have a very important matter to discuss with you."

"Ding, is there anything that can't be discussed until work tomorrow?"

"It's like this, Robert. You know that I have never interfered with your team's design of the game Glory Century, but today I have a unique advertising contract to play something that involves a core thing on China's side."

"what?"

"A well-known radio anchor gave me a suggestion. He suggested changing the game of Glory Century to League of Legends, because it was designed by you and the team. I want to hear your opinion. "

"League of Legends? Legends? Hmm... I haven't really thought of using this word to describe the big and small stories in the game before, but it sounds very interesting."

When Ding Yong heard that Robert didn't refute immediately, he quickly pouted at Chu Yitian beside him happily. You know, as the chief designer of Glory Century, Robert is proud of being a top game designer.

You know, when acquiring Riot Games, Ding Yong insisted on taking full control at the beginning, but Robert disagreed with life and death, and threatened the acquisition of all the most elite design teams of Riot Games to resign.

In the end, although he succeeded in controlling the holding, he was still forced by Robert's obsession. In the end, Ding Yong handed over the design rights of the game itself to them.

After the acquisition, Ding Yong was more concerned about the overall operation, and basically did not intervene in the specific design content of the game, and the two of them rarely talked on the phone or met each other.The last time we met was when Ding Yong went to Los Angeles to look for him when he was on a business trip to the United States.

Hearing that Robert didn't refuse immediately, but said "sounds very interesting", Ding Yong's heart kept beating, for fear that he would ruin such a good idea.

"Ding, it is undeniable that the name of the new game you proposed is indeed very interesting, but my head is still dizzy, so I will hold a meeting tomorrow morning to discuss the decision, and then I will reply to you, OK?" Robert yawned again and again on the phone.

"Hey, Robert, I can't wait for your tomorrow! I want the results now, now! Because I need to use a new advertisement at five o'clock here, and there is another hour and a half... And, if your If it is approved, immediately organize programmers and engineers to modify the code and change the name of the game! For the introduction on the official website, you can make a maintenance page first and take your time, but it doesn’t work inside the game!”

Nani?

an hour and a half?Robert didn't fall asleep instantly when he heard such a fucking request: "Ding, you are not crazy, are you? An hour and a half? Do you know that it is almost four o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles? Programmers just can stay up late, You must be asleep now, you are killing me!"

Ding Yong died as a living horse doctor: "Well, Robert, if you have no objection, you must agree to the name, right? You know that I have always supported your team and never interfered, but this time I hope you can Support my decision, because it is really important, and even related to whether this game can become the world's most participated e-sports super-class game in the future! I must count on you!"

"Well... I personally have no objection to this name, but I really can't guarantee that the code will be modified and launched at five o'clock, can it be done at 05:30?" Robert is also desperate at the moment.

Chu Yitian interjected next to him and said, "No problem, I should have broadcast the commercial at the end of the show, at about 05:30 at that time, please make sure to modify the code!"

Ding Yong kept begging Robert on the phone: "Okay, I will trouble your team! Be sure to maintain the internal test server at 05:30, let's not talk about it, work as soon as possible, see you next time I invite you to eat lobster, BYE!"

Ding Yong quickly hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief.

Nima, this is really fatal, less than two hours, is this really a man?

Robert hung up the phone and put on a T-shirt and shorts, slippers on his feet, and went out to the garage.

He started his Land Rover, woke up the core programmers with the car phone, and rushed to the company in downtown Los Angeles immediately!
Maybe we usually think that changing the name of the game is not a matter of minutes?

But boys, this is not as simple as changing a file name in WINDONWS. A client must modify the corresponding code, as well as the artist LOGO, and most importantly, update the data code inside the server. , this process takes a long time.

If it is a game that is officially in operation, it will take an hour for a server to restart and update the data on the server side.

But fortunately, Glory Century, oh no, it will be called League of Legends from now on. This game currently only has one large closed beta server in the world. Although the capacity is large, there is only one at least.

Due to time constraints, Robert had no time to go to the office for a meeting. He directly used the car phone to turn on the electronic screen and hurriedly held a meeting to convey Ding Yong's revision opinions, and then went straight to the company.

The security guards of Riot Games were shocked. Since when did this nima see the chief executive coming to work overtime in the middle of the night?You must know that the corporate culture in the United States is completely different from that in China, especially this kind of IT game company.

They don't clock in at work, and there is no one to supervise them. You can even stay away from work for several days in a row, but you must ensure that your work is completed on time and according to the quantity, and you cannot hold back the entire team.

You must know that Robert is the person who dislikes working overtime the most. Because he takes the lead in taking vacations, it is still very easy to go to work inside Riot.

After a while, all the cars drove in, and the security guard who was on duty at four o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles was shocked. This is... Did the game server explode?

But once Robert starts working with all his strength, his work efficiency will be just right.

Because it only involves changing the game name, including the Chinese name and English name, the task of this piece of art is not complicated. In the current internal test client, all the places where the game LOGO appears are redrawn, which is not difficult for professionals. .

The most difficult problem now is the server data update problem, because although there is only one server, it is a global internal test, so the real data server cannot be only in the United States and China, and there are two points in Europe. There is one point in Oceania, one point in South America, and one point each in Asia, South Korea, and Southeast Asia. Because of the time, this test is entirely about Riot's ability to coordinate and organize in an instant!
Overseas calls were made one after another. Except for the colleagues in South America who were also in the early morning, fortunately, colleagues in other regions were almost at work or were at work.

Los Angeles, 4 a.m.
It's 5 a.m. in Rio de Janeiro.

London, seven o'clock in the morning.

Berlin, 8 o'clock in the morning.

Sydney, 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

Magic City, 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

Singapore, 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

Seoul, 5 o'clock in the afternoon.

The heads of the branches of these fist companies from different countries around the world also received an overseas call from Robert, the president of the US head office.

There is only one purpose: the headquarters is preparing to release the latest version of the emergency update patch in half an hour, and to ensure that within the next hour, the data servers around the world must update the patch synchronously, and then go online!

"FXXX, is Robert crazy?"

"Axi..."

"Hold the grass, what the hell is this, how can such a short time be enough?"

…………

However, the operating efficiency of the fist company is amazing, otherwise League of Legends will not become a popular e-sports confrontation game all over the world in the future.

The various programmer groups and artists in the Los Angeles headquarters were frantically operating on their computers like chicken blood, and Robert actually assumed the role of an office clerk at this time...

Everyone has an extra-large cup, which is full of black coffee ground from original Brazilian coffee beans!Double metered, no coffee mate, no sugar, the only thing that can get everyone's brains jumping into gear at 4am!
"Link, you can repair the LOGO here again, yes, it should look more imposing."

"Could you hurry up with the code? I've already issued an announcement that the server is offline, OHNO, and by the way, make an announcement about the closure of the official website for maintenance!"

"It's here, it's all in this folder, please update it quickly..."

……

Facing the core team of Riot Games who were busy on the other side of the ocean at this time, the radio department of the TV station in the High-tech Zone of the Magic City did not have any tense atmosphere at all.

Because Chu Yitian was already rehearsing the key advertisement with Tian Lin at this time, this was a stroke of genius, and he couldn't say it casually, otherwise it would be greatly compromised.

Chu Yitian smiled and said: "Teacher Tian, ​​because today we have to cooperate with the launch of the latest version of the advertiser's advertisement, so I think the theme of our runaway radio column today is, video games and e-sports!"

Tian Lin said with a little stage fright: "Xiao Chu, I really don't understand this. I usually don't play any games. To be honest, I can only play Xiaoxiaole on my mobile phone at most. Other games I really haven't played before!"
