Reborn to create a virtual world

Fang Zhihe came to Xingzhe's company, and proposed a deal that surprised the entire Xingzhe.

He hopes to acquire Xingzhe.

The entire Xingzhe includes all assets, technologies and existing copyrights of Xingzhe.

Lin Shu knew it, but asked Ju Mingfeng with a sneer: "Hey, you said I heard it right?"

Ju Mingfeng commented: "Whimsical."

Lin Shu was somewhat curious, and asked Zheng Fangcheng, "How much does he offer?"

Zheng Fangcheng replied: "Currently it is 800 million."

Lin Shu didn't even bother to complain, and said, "Yang Ziqi offered me 2000 million yuan half a year ago to buy future platforms and related technologies, but I didn't sell them."

"You go back and tell the people in Fetion this sentence, and then invite them to have a cup of tea and walk slowly."

His tone was not very sarcastic, but a bit lazy - Ju Mingfeng reckoned that Fetion's move was too frivolous, which made Lin Shu unable to arouse his will to fight.

Naturally, Fetion failed to negotiate this time.I went back soon afterwards, and I don't know if it was a strategic retreat or I gave up my original idea.

Lin Shu didn't pay attention to this matter, and went to school and work as usual.

As a result, on a Saturday morning in early April, he drank milk like a middle-aged man, turned on the TV and read the newspaper, and then heard a piece of news.

The news reported that the domestic youth inspirational TV series "Crimson" became popular in Southeast Asia, was popular in Europe and the United States, and was hailed as a new theme with fantasy and romanticism.

Although the TV series "Crimson" is an idol drama in essence, it actually has a touch of science fiction and fantasy.This is a youth idol drama centered not on love but on "dreams".

The heroine Sang Hongye is a female high school student with genius thinking and vitality, but the environment around her has always been gloomy. Every day she sees relatives and friends around her complaining about various things, hurting herself, others, or each other.They feel that everything in life is boring, full of misfortune and hopelessness.Life is just living, not a life full of fun.

Then she met another genius boy, Flynn.

Flynn is a very talented teenager who has no expectations or goals in life.He was at a loss, not knowing what to pursue in life.If Sang Hongye wanted to do something for the people around her, she wanted to use Fei Lin's ability.She created a life goal for Flynn, asking him to study the lives of ordinary people.

why are they cryingwhy are you laughing?Why do good deeds?Why do evil?In order to convince Fei Lin, Sang Hongye set an extremely evil goal for Fei Lin, letting this indifferent young man control other people's lives, control others, change others, and let others follow the trajectory he set.

Flynn became interested in this proposition, and then the two got together and used their minds and abilities to start changing others.They use human nature, ideas and interests to control and influence the actions of selected people, or make people suffer for themselves, or make people change their life attitudes or original words and deeds.

Sang Hongye said: "Look, it's very interesting, right? You have the ability to succeed if you want to make people successful, and to punish people if you want to be punished."

But Flynn finally realized: "All these choices, no matter what I did in it, these choices belong to them, and they are the choices they made with their own will."

Then he said to Sang Hongye: "You pretend to be my plan, but in fact you are only trying to help these people regain their purpose and vitality in life. But Sang Hongye, what about yourself? Where is your own goal?"

With the theme of chasing and regaining dreams, this drama focuses on two teenagers who seem to be in middle school, and tells a story that allows adults to regain their youth and courage.

And Su Shuang's character design of a young genius also fascinated many people, and a wave of "genius" suddenly became popular.

In Lin Shu's view, the popularity of "Crimson" is the beginning of all the changes.

At this moment, the newscasters on TV are still reporting on the hot screening of "Crimson", and announced a series of official policies at the same time, including increasing cultural exports to Europe and the United States, strengthening film and television cooperation with Southeast Asia...etc. wait.

When American dramas were officially introduced in the early days, in fact, domestic online copyrights have already undergone a rather serious review.But at that time, it was only the formalization of copyright, requiring all websites to broadcast episodes to be authorized, and nothing else was involved.

However, when "Crimson" began to be screened, the country began to export TV dramas in large quantities, and even foreign countries began to actively look for some popular domestic dramas to watch.As a result, the plagiarized masterpiece was sued and brought to court by the original company, and...the other party even won the lawsuit.

This is unprecedented.You must know that there are certain TV dramas produced by specific studios in China, which have always had a deep-rooted habit of plagiarism. Meaning, it has not affected the popularity of some popular TV series and the release of sequels one after another.

In fact, most viewers don't care about plagiarism or not, they only care about whether the TV series they see are good or not.However, it is very important for the producer to have the ability to be original. The former means that the producer can produce works independently, while the creation of the latter must depend on the former.

What does this mean?

This means that if there are only imitations, plagiarisms and plagiarisms left in the world, then all viewers will only see many same, self-repeating works.Plagiarizing foreign classic works may have many viewers who have not seen these works, so they find it very novel and beautiful.But these novelties do not belong to the plagiarized works themselves. No matter how novel and beautiful the stalk is, if a person has read it a thousand times or ten thousand times, will he still think it is novel and beautiful?

This is why many people call for the protection of originality and against plagiarism.They want to protect the author's self-creation ability, but also their self-creation will.

This is why, in many cases, the law draws a dividing line between reference and plagiarism.In fact, laws or morality never prevent a person from learning anything from existing works or knowledge, what they prohibit is the destruction and killing of self-creative ability.The protection of copyright and the punishment of plagiarism itself are to protect the self-creation will of the plagiarized and prevent plagiarists from abandoning their own self-creation ability.

After "Crimson", as the country's cultural and entertainment industry is in line with the world, the state has strengthened its control and management of this aspect.At the same time, it is accompanied by an upsurge of patent lawsuits that has not been seen in the past few decades.The whole society seems to want to settle all kinds of infringement lawsuits left over from the past ten years in just a few years.

Ding Cheng's studio was disbanded under such circumstances, and it was set up as a typical case of plagiarism.He has experienced a full six infringement lawsuits during these four years, the last four of which were handled by the famous intellectual property lawyer Li Zewei.These six lawsuits ruined a well-known promising screenwriter and turned him into a street mouse that everyone shouted at. It also made Li Zewei famous and became a benchmark in the field of intellectual copyright law.

Since Ding Cheng was prosecuted in the fourth case, Li Zewei began to make an additional request in addition to the general compensation, demanding that Ding Cheng be executed with a new concept of qualification punishment, which is to "deprive the public of the right to publish commercially" for life.

At this time, there are not many types of such qualification punishments and examples of implementation in China. However, during the sixth lawsuit, Li Zewei's request was finally accepted by the court.

Ding Cheng was sentenced to 40 years for "deprivation of the public's commercial publication rights".During these 40 years, he cannot publish and obtain commercial rewards for any content he created that involves copyright ownership, including but not limited to novels, scripts, film and television, and other related industries that change authorization, such as game copywriting, etc.

While the victory of this lawsuit shocked and deterred the entire industry, it also made many people's minds come alive.Since then, the deterrent effect of copyright lawsuits on plagiarists has been greatly enhanced.

Of course, these are all things to follow.

At this time, Lin Shu watched the host's praise of "Crimson" on TV, but felt that the creators and producers of "Crimson" must have never imagined that this drama itself would have such a big impact on the future domestic cultural industry. Influence.

It can be seen that sometimes, excellent creation itself is a merciless mockery and deterrence of plagiarism.

But at this time Lin Shu's mind was not on these matters.

Because his hypocritical wife caused him trouble again.Within two months of the start of the new semester, Ju Mingfeng drew 370 turtles of different sizes and shapes on the monthly exam paper. The head teacher was so angry that he dragged him to the office for a morning training, and then I was fined to stand for an afternoon.

The primary school test paper is really simple. It takes about 10 minutes for Ju Mingfeng to complete the complete test paper, but Lin Shu doesn't understand how he managed to draw more than 10 turtles in the remaining 300 minutes. On average, one is needed every four seconds—although an exam lasts one and a half or two hours, the papers can usually be handed in half an hour after the exam starts.Ju Mingfeng always handed in the papers at the first time.

Is he finally bored enough to challenge himself?

Of course, Lin Shu felt that a math teacher who was furious but could even output the number of tortoises was boring and speechless.

But no matter what, such unscrupulous behavior is always annoying.So Lin Shu ignored Ju Mingfeng for two whole days, didn't answer his phone or talk to him, let him reflect on himself and learn a lesson.

As a result, on Friday morning, in desperation, Ju Mingfeng got a tortoise shell from nowhere to cover his schoolbag, and carried it to school, and said to the teacher with grief: "Teacher, I was wrong. , I have already reflected deeply. Lin Shu has not spoken to me for two days, so please forgive me!"

The teacher in an office was stunned.Lin Shu and Ju Mingfeng's homeroom teachers were still stern-faced, but the stern-faced muscles twitched for a long time, and finally they couldn't help laughing, then suddenly lightly slapped Ju Mingfeng on the shoulder, angrily and funny Said: "Looking at you like this, you haven't reflected on yourself at all! It's Lin Shu's fault for ignoring you—don't bring bad classmates, go back to the classroom!"

After returning to the classroom, Ju Mingfeng happily reported to Lin Shu: "I admitted my mistake, and the teacher has forgiven me!"

Lin Shu: "..."

When Fang Zhihe appeared in Xingze for the second time, his offer had already reached 3000 million.It jumped nearly four times at once, and it can be predicted how sure Fetion will be for the future platform.

However, Lin Shu was not moved by it.

He knew that the reason why Fetion did this was that the Fetion engine encountered setbacks in anti-theft, so he tried to solve this problem through some more rapid and effective methods.From the other party's point of view, Xingzhe is actually a small company, and it can be spent with money, so naturally there is no need to worry about it.

But they obviously don't understand that it's not just the boss of Fetion who has a long-term vision and great ambition.Fetion was also a small company that was dilapidated and could only rent servers, but it was able to develop to its current scale in the end because of the founder's ambition and persistence.

Naturally, the negotiations this time were extremely unsuccessful.It is absolutely impossible for Lin Shu to transfer the future platform. After all, he is not leaving just to earn a ticket, but to accumulate capital in a long-term and stable manner.

But Fetion didn't give up, so they were still trying their best to persuade Xingzhe, and hoped that Xingzhe could sit down and negotiate.Later, they took a step back and expressed their hope to chat with Xingze about cooperation and willingness to purchase their anti-theft technology.

From this point of view, Fetion actually did not regard Xingzhe as a competitor, so they did not take the competition between the two parties seriously—even if the two parties were still involved in a lawsuit at this time.

Or in Fetion's view, as long as this acquisition is completed, the entire lawsuit will naturally be settled.

However, the actual situation did not match the expectation.According to Lin Shu's wish, Zheng Fangcheng was very firm and tough in rejecting Fetion's acquisition or cooperation.

Fetion raised the price several times in the middle, as if they wanted to use money to change Xingzhe's thinking and shake their will, but several visits failed to change the situation, and finally they had to return in defeat.

But after Fetion failed, the whole thing did not end there.

Here I want to talk about the current situation of Xingzhe Technology Department.Xingze's current head of the technology department is Jing He, but in fact the person who manages the department key is Zhou Fan.There are several main reasons, one is that he lives close.

Because Zhou Fan and Bai Chiwen's home is not in this city, their residences are both apartments arranged by Xingze, which are close to the company and have a high cost performance ratio. It will undoubtedly be more convenient to go to and from the company every day.

Although Jing He is from this city, he lives with his mother.The distance is not too far, but to take care of the elderly mother, there are a lot of things to do before going out every day, so naturally I can't get up early.Lin Shu was also curious, because Jing He looked to be in his 20s, but it was said that his mother was over [-]. The age difference was really too big, which made people wonder.

The second is that Zhou Fan is meticulous and reliable, and willing to take responsibility.Handling keys is a troublesome thing, and it is also a thing that needs to be careful. If these things are handed over to Bai Chiwen, there will definitely be problems, so it is still necessary for more responsible people to master them.

Xingze is not without security, but Lin Shu thinks it is more appropriate for the heads of each department to hold the keys.Although Du Sitong and the security guard also had backup keys, they only had office keys, such as filing cabinets, safes, and computer room keys, none of which were available.

But also because Zhou Fan has a strong sense of responsibility, so he has always been very careful in taking care of his own affairs.He has independently installed several small programs on his work computer and the company's server group, that is, once there is a large amount of data transmission, the computer will automatically connect to the Internet or directly send code information to his mobile phone when it is already connected to the Internet.

This is the preparation just in case, but someone actually triggered the alarm that day.Zhou Fan rushed to the company almost without hesitation, and then asked the security guard who was in the company at this time.

Xingze actually had a group of staff on duty that night. Apart from the customer service department, the technical department was still working without procrastination, but unexpectedly a girl in the public relations department was still working overtime.

That girl was one of the public relations staff responsible for receiving visitors from Fetion.

When Zhou Fan arrived, he happened to capture the girl who copied the server data without authorization.The girl was a new employee who just joined the job this year, and she was completely terrified after being caught.After Zhou Fan used both hard and soft threats to intimidate him, he learned the cause and effect from the girl.

As a member of the public relations department, the girl does not have a server login password, but her password was obtained from a male employee in the customer service team who was chasing her.And the reason why she downloaded the data is also very simple - Fetion is willing to pay 100 million to buy her to steal a copy of the main program of the future platform and platform engine development software.

When Lin Shu received the call and found out about this, he frowned tightly in astonishment, but told Zhou Fan not to do anything first, and then rushed to the company.

After arriving at the company, he asked about the specific situation in detail, and then asked the girl: "You said they would pay for the copy you stole, do you have any evidence? Like a note or a recording?"

The girl said: "...it was just a private meeting, I didn't record it."

Lin Shu said: "Since this is the case, why do you think they will keep their promises? This is a shady deal. If you don't even get a handle on it, they can refuse to accept it after getting the flash memory. If caught, it is likely to go to jail."

The girl was stunned by Lin Shu and the dark thoughts of these social elites in Lin Shu's mouth, and she didn't speak for a long time.

Looking at her expression, Lin Shu knew that she couldn't dig out any more useful information here.He thought for a while, thinking about what could be used for this matter, but after thinking for a long time, he still felt that using this matter would have a limited impact on Fetion, and it would not be fatal in one blow, so he finally suppressed this matter for the time being. idea.

But he still asked the girl to record a recording, and then said to her: "You should understand that you can't stay in Xingze if you do this kind of thing? If you are willing to leave a testimony and need it later When you come out to testify, we can consider not sending you to the police station."

Girls have no other choice in this situation, so they must agree to anything in order not to get into the game.

Afterwards, the Fetion staff didn't wait for the girl's reply. Although they were a little disappointed, they didn't take it too seriously.However, they became a little nervous when they found that the girl was no longer among the reception staff and the phone was always busy.

Because of this change, Fang Zhihe had been observing Du Sitong's reaction when he came to persuade him again.

What happened before, according to Du Sitong's personality, he couldn't hide it.But Lin Shu specifically told her not to be too obvious and show her clues.So although Du Sitong was a little upset, he held back and didn't directly get angry at Fang Zhihe and the others.

But she is not a person who is very good at hiding her emotions, and the result of her deliberate concealment is that her performance is quite stiff and looks a little impatient.

Du Sitong is actually a person who is easy to see through, so after Fang Zhihe found out about her reaction, he was relieved, thinking that the other party was impatient with the long-term pestering.

Negotiations were ineffective for a while, and Fang Zhihe felt that it was unlikely that he would make any progress if he stayed in the west of the lake.

Before leaving, he expressed his wish to invite Du Sitong and Zheng Fangcheng to have a meal.Zheng Fangcheng wanted to see what else he wanted to do, so he agreed.

The meal was set at a seafood restaurant. During the meal, Fang Zhihe had been trying to persuade Du Sitong and the others to drink, but Du Sitong had been told in advance that Zheng Fangcheng asked her to take full advantage of being a woman and not drink a drop of wine no matter what.

Du Sitong didn't want to get involved either, so he naturally followed suit.

Zheng Fangcheng did not have such good luck, and was soon drunk.Then Fang Zhihe took the opportunity to help him to the toilet and asked him questions like "How much is Xingze's salary for you?"

Zheng Fangcheng was actually pretending to be drunk, so when he heard Fang Zhihe's question, he understood the other party's purpose, but he started to pretend to be stupid, saying: "Working...it's not like that...but if you come out to hang out, why...get more money?" A high salary is not as good as being your own boss..."

Fang Zhihe hit the snake with the stick, and said a lot of things, similar to demonstrating how hopeless Zheng Fangcheng is in Xingze, and how promising he is if he can work in Fetion... After talking like this for a long time, Zheng Fangcheng also kept responding. with.

However, when Fang Zhihe wanted Zheng Fangcheng to promise something, Zheng Fangcheng looked confused and didn't respond at all.

Fang Zhihe suddenly lost his temper.

What's worse, Zheng Fangcheng reappeared the next day, looking like he was hungover, but when Fang Zhihe brought up the topic they talked about the night before, Zheng Fangcheng had an honest and innocent face.

Fang Zhihe talked about salary and future, but Zheng Fangcheng smiled impeccably as if wearing a mask, and replied: "I am very satisfied with my current job. If there is a future, I don't think there is anything better than future games." There's a future ahead."

Fang Zhihe's teeth itch, thinking that's not what you said after getting drunk last night.

And in the end, he didn't know which part was the truth and which part was a lie for Zheng Fangcheng.

Half a month after the Fetion incident, one night when Lin Shu was having dinner at home, Liang Yuehua suddenly asked Lin Shu, "Xiao Shu, do you know that your father is living with someone?"

Lin Shu froze in place for a while, before asking, "Who?"
