The strongest game producer

Xiao Gou and Qiao Hong did not continue to discuss the joke of "the Chinese language score is 150 and only 120 is the five scumbags".Xiao Gou was very happy to hand over the manuscript and PPT to Qiao Hong, and continued to debug the game by himself.

Qiao Hong worked so hard to find time to help Xiao Gou prepare the manuscript and PPT, and even dragged Xiao Gou to rehearse for a long time. Xiao Gou felt that he was invincible in the world, no, he had no plans left.

Qiao Hong sighed once again for Xiao Gou's indiscriminate use of idioms.He really didn't know whether Xiao Gou was really poor in idioms, or he used idioms indiscriminately on purpose.

On the day of going to the lecture, at Qiao Hong’s strong request, Xiao Gou put on the clothes that Qiao Hong bought for him, went to the barber shop to get his hair done, made a mask, put on light makeup, and sprayed on men’s eau de toilette Just go out.

Xiao Gou sniffed at himself like a dog: "It's strange to have a smell that doesn't belong to you. But it turns out that Da Qiao, you can also match normal clothes. I thought you could only match trendy front-line styles. Where are the clothes?"

Although the decorations on the clothes have been removed, Qiao Hong, who is still dressed so coolly that he has no friends, said while driving: "If you despise my vision of matching clothes again, I will throw you here and walk by yourself .”

Xiao Gou muttered: "It's as if I don't know how to take a taxi."

Qiao Hong raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

Xiao Gou coughed dryly: "Okay, I was wrong, Da Qiao's vision is awesome! You are indeed the chief designer of Nuan Nuan!"

Qiao Hong snorted coldly, and said, "Although I'm not good at the old-fashioned outfits that my elders like, I'm good at how to make myself look the most handsome. I don't want you to be laughed at when you go to Mizuki to give a speech. Dude. Don't wink, put on a serious look! You are going to recruit people, don't let the alumni think you are an unreliable funny guy!"

Are you good at how to look your best?Qiao Hong's non-mainstream smoky makeup flashed through Xiao Gou's mind, and he almost couldn't hold back his laughter.

Xiao Gou smiled and said, "Okay, I'll rely on you to help me match clothes for formal occasions. But it's really uncomfortable to have a layer of stuff on my face. I hope I don't wear makeup when I sweat later."

Qiao Hong said unhappily, "Do you think my cosmetics are some brand-name products?"

Xiao Gou touched his face cautiously, and said, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen you wearing makeup yet, and you didn't even wear makeup last time you went live."

Qiao Hong explained: "Didn't you forget about the last live broadcast because you had been working overtime before the live broadcast? As for the usual..."

Qiao Hong paused, and said, "I've been lazy for a year, and suddenly I don't want to put on makeup when I go out."

Xiao Gou said: "You are so handsome, you can crush most people without makeup, and you don't need makeup at all. By the way, do you want to listen to the lecture later? Or do you want to go out for a stroll?"

Qiao Hong said: "I will wait for you in the audience. I hope that I will watch you in the audience, so that you can memorize the manuscript, and don't be crazy like in the last live broadcast, and suddenly play nonsense on the spot."

Xiao Gou whistled.He didn't know who was crazy.

……

After arriving at the school, Xiao Gou and Qiao Hong went to meet the principal first, and then Qiao Hong put on a peaked cap with the brim pressed down to cover half of his face, carrying a messenger bag and holding a notebook, and followed the staff who had gone to the lecture theater to prepare in advance. classroom.

Qiao Hong chose a relatively back corner to sit down. When the students listening to the lecture came, he just assumed that he was also a student of the school and did not attract anyone's attention.

Soon the lecture theater was full of people, and some people brought their own benches and sat in the corridor aisle, and the door and windows were also full of people.Xiao Gou was startled when he entered the lecture theater.

"So I'm so popular? Or is it that I'm surrounded by players who want to kill my red dog?" Xiao Gou's first words after opening the mic were a joke, "Let me tell you that in reality, people kill and beat people." It's all against the law."

The audience roared with laughter.Qiao Hong covered his face.Did you say that no one will go crazy?Xiao Gou, take it easy!

Fortunately, Xiao Gou is still reliable in business.After making a few jokes to mobilize the atmosphere, he opened the PPT and began to memorize the manuscript seriously.

When I was in college, whether it was a group assignment or an individual assignment, the teacher asked the students to come to the stage to explain.Xiao Gou was not afraid of the show, and he spoke well.

Of course, the content of Xiao Gou's PPT is not his outlook on the future of the game industry or the future development of Red Dog.These dry goods are the secrets he wants to hide, the magic weapon for defeating the enemy in the future.He just talked about some things that the domestic game industry still lacks compared with foreign countries, and then focused on explaining the implicit discrimination against gender in gameplay.

After Nuan Nuan’s success, many media outlets have begun to analyze this issue at length. Xiao Gou doesn’t need to hide it, he can talk about it seriously.Anyway, after he said it, other game manufacturers will not change their scheduled game development plans.After all, the invisible chain of discrimination is not so easy to eliminate.

Although Xiao Gou didn't talk much about dry goods, it was full of dry goods in the ears of the students who hadn't left school yet.When Xiao Gou used "playing with toy guns is the mainstream, playing with dolls is not accepted by the public" as a metaphor for the invisible sexism in the game industry today, many students, especially female students, slapped their palms red.

"Actually, it's not accurate for me to say that Nuan Nuan is a female-oriented game. It's like the argument that 'boys can't play with dolls and jump rubber bands' is obviously wrong. Nuan Nuan is just a casual game." Xiao Gou half-joking Dao, "Speaking of dressing up, the proportion of male fashion designers is not low now. No one says that clothing design and collocation are exclusive to women, so how can dressing games be said to be exclusive to women? Next, we will discuss in Nuan Nuan Introducing men's dressing in the activities, everyone will not only be able to raise their daughters in Nuannuan, but also raise their sons."

The audience roared with laughter.

Qiao Hong breathed a sigh of relief.He thought, Xiao Gou finally didn't come to talk nonsense this time, and he followed the script completely.He wrongly blamed Xiao Gou.

But Qiao Hong's breath was obviously too early.

After the PPT presentation, the on-site question and answer session began.

The student asked: "Brother Xiao Gou, what is the secret of your entrepreneurial success? Is it your long-term vision for the game industry, or your outstanding personal ability? Or both?"

Xiao Gou smiled: "Obviously, neither. I think students of Mizuki must have personal abilities as long as they are not dawdling in college. Although you haven't left the campus yet, in this top international university, you accept Influenced by successful people from all walks of life, the vision is definitely not bad. But the people who can succeed in starting a business in the end are still rare. Therefore, besides the hard conditions, luck is also an important factor in the secret of entrepreneurial success. Hard conditions You can achieve it with your own efforts, all of you here are hardworking people, for you, what you must lack is luck and opportunities."

The students were curious: "What does Brother Xiao Gou think is his greatest luck and opportunity? Is it the success of "Fruit Swordsman"?"

Xiao Gou shook his head: "No, my greatest luck and opportunity, of course, was meeting Da Qiao and hugging Da Qiao's thick thighs."

Students: ...huh?

Xiao Gou smiled: "Da Qiao not only served as a painter, but also polished the plot and planned activities for me. Now he is also in charge of the administration, and he is also the benefactor of Red Dog. More importantly, he gives money and contributes, I don't love money and don't love power. Even the shares of Red Dog were forced into him by me. Now he doesn't get a penny of salary or share. He is simply a saint. Without such a brother, how could I succeed? "

Students: Uh...?

Xiao Gou spread his hands: "It's a pity that you are unlikely to meet this kind of good luck. So my success cannot be copied."

Students: ...Go away.

Xiao Gou asked: "Is there anything else you want to ask?"

Students: ...After hearing what you said, I suddenly don't feel like asking questions.

The corner of Qiao Hong's mouth twitched in the auditorium, and he couldn't control the hand that wanted to pinch Xiao Gou's cheek.

What are you talking about?Do you believe that your nonsense will become a hit in the media tomorrow?God damn, success doesn't depend on vision or ability, it all depends on hugging brothers' thighs, is there anyone who abuses juniors and juniors like you? !

Xiao Gou smiled and said: "Oh, it seems that the truth is not very good, everyone is very irritated by me. There is no way, I have such a good brother, I just can't help showing off. You just think I am an upstart mentality Bar."

Students: ... God damn the nouveau riche mentality, how can you ask us? !

Finally, some students recovered from the shock and asked a new question: "Will Red Dog continue to make casual games in the future? Is Red Dog planning to use casual games to gain a foothold in the game industry?"

Xiao Gou said without hesitation: "Casual games? Because I think mobile games are quite casual. But it doesn't count as casual games. Anyway, I have my brothers to support me, and I can eat even if I go bankrupt. It is to invest all the money earned from the previous game into the next game, without considering any strategy or long-term goals, and I can make whatever game I want.”

Students: ... what? !

The voice of the student who asked the question was a little trembling: "Aren't you afraid of bankruptcy if you don't have a plan or a goal?"

Xiao Gou's expression was very serious, and what he said was not serious: "So I said, since there are brothers who have the bottom line, I can have food when I go bankrupt, so it doesn't matter. Don't worry, every time I play a game, I will put the staff There is enough wages reserved, and employees’ wages will not be deducted.”

Students: You said "wave" right?You did say "wave" just now, right?Is this a question of whether wages can be deducted? !If you start a company like this, what future do you have for your employees? !It's a precarious situation, okay? !

Qiao Hong took a deep breath, took a deep breath, took a deep breath, he was out of breath!

Do you still want to recruit people? !Where is the reliable Xiao Gou just now? !Why are you talking nonsense all of a sudden! !You will make people doubt the future of the company! !

Xiao Gou smiled: "Are there any students asking questions?"

Qiao Hong pushed down the brim of his hat with one hand, and raised his hand with the other.The person who was in charge of holding the microphone was the faculty and staff who entered the classroom with him, and immediately ran to his side, and passed the microphone over excitedly.

Xiao Gou didn't recognize his good brother from the dark crowd, he smiled and said, "Does this classmate have any questions?"

Qiao Hong lowered his voice and said, "Xiao Gou, shut up."

Xiao Gou: "!!!"

Students present: "!!!"

Everyone in the audience turned their heads in unison to look at this divine man who dared to shut up the guests.

Xiao Gou instantly recognized his brother's voice, and said with a dry smile, "Da Qiao, don't be angry, I'm just trying to liven up the atmosphere. The younger brothers and sisters must have heard that I was joking, ha...haha..."

Students present: "!!!"

The students present were in an uproar.So God Qiao is there too! ! ! ! !

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, it's God Qiao who can control a wave of dogs!

Qiao Hong returned the microphone to the host, stuffed the notebook into the messenger bag, and strode to the front of the stage with the messenger bag in his hand. He took off his hat, smiled at everyone, and said, "Now Xiao Gou's The speech is over, so I came to the stage uninvited, I hope you don’t mind. He has nothing to say about the company’s development strategy, so if you have any questions, please ask me.”

Xiao Gou brazenly said: "Yes, yes, yes, yes, I said it was not a hahaha. I just made a joke with everyone with Da Qiao. Of course, our company has a clear development strategy. Administrative matters are still a question. Big Joe, I'm not very good at this."

Students: ...what are you still doing?Scream now!God Joe, I love you!So handsome, so cool, completely different from a puppy!

Xiao Gou consciously gave up the C position, and together with Qiao Hong took turns answering the questions from the younger brothers and sisters.At the end of the time, Xiao Gou and Qiao Hong left the school under the escort of the teaching staff. According to gossip, someone in the parking lot saw Qiao Dashen pinching Xiao Gou's cheeks on both sides and pulling hard, while Xiao Gou raised his hands in a gesture of surrender. .

Perhaps, the release of Xiao Gou and the appearance of Qiao Dashen in this lecture were not due to the intentional collusion of the two?

……

"I don't think it's collusion. You didn't see Xiao Gou's flustered expression. It's like a dog who has bitten furniture and was found by its owner. It's really guilty and flustered."

"Speaking of it, I always wondered why Da Qiao didn't come with the puppy. It turned out that Da Qiao was saving the scene in the audience."

"Master Qiao is also very angry. Listen to what Gouzi said. The secret of success lies in having a good friend who is rich, good-natured and hard-working. The future strategy is to row boats without oars... If I were Master Qiao Mad."

"What do you mean rowing a boat without oars?"

"You don't need oars to row a boat—it's all about the waves!"

"Am I the only one who thinks that the two of them are really in collusion? After all, the company's future strategy must be kept secret. Red Dog is just a small company. If they reveal the game they want to make in advance, they may be chased and intercepted by big companies. Since I was asked a key question and couldn’t say it, instead of refusing it bluntly, it’s better to just joke around and the atmosphere might be better.”

"I think it's possible for you to say that. With such a successful career, it's impossible for Xiao Gou to be a man without a city. Indeed, answering like this is definitely much better than saying with a straight face that 'the company's secrets can't be disclosed'."

"But did they discuss it in advance? Xiao Gou's acting skills are so good?"

"Maybe it wasn't discussed in advance, but Xiao Gou knew that Qiao Hong would come to the rescue, so he was relieved to talk nonsense."

"Several witnesses saw Master Joe pulling the dog's cheeks in the parking lot. They must be angry."

"Wow, cheek-pushing? So cute? Did anyone take a picture of it?"

"Hands up, I'm a witness. But Qiao Qiao let go after a tug, before touching the phone."

"Okay, gay is dead, these two are gay, right?"

"So what, isn't this sweet?"

"My God, are all the outstanding men in this world going to be with excellent men?!"

"It should be said that excellent people are with excellent people, regardless of gender."

……

"Is the discussion on the Internet going off topic?" Xiao Gou asked, crossing his legs and flipping through his phone.

Qiao Hong said unhappily: "You should thank the netizens for their brain supplements, which didn't turn you into a joke."

Xiao Gou tilted his head, and said: "It's not a brainstorm, I really thought so at the time. It is definitely impossible to tell the future development of the company, so why not just joke around. Who knew you would be so angry that you would run to the stage?"

Qiao Hong sneered: "You mean it's my fault?"

Xiao Gou blinked his eyes and put on a very cute expression: "No, what I mean is, the two of us really have a good understanding and cooperate with each other tacitly."

Qiao Hong looked at Xiao Gou for a long time, Xiao Gou is cute.jpg.In the end, Qiao Hong failed, and said helplessly: "Okay, I guessed it too, you want to get away with it. But we are going to recruit people, and you are too unreliable, so be careful not to recruit people."

Seeing that the alarm was lifted, Xiao Gou leaned close to Qiao Hong with a shy face, sat down next to Qiao Hong, and said, "Why can't we recruit? People who really take my joke seriously and don't want to come are not suitable to come." We work in the company. Besides, it’s really up to me to decide what games the company will make next, and I’m not talking nonsense.”

Qiao Hong thought for a while, then said helplessly: "It seems to be true. As long as you can convince me, I will not interfere with your decision."

Xiao Gou smiled and said: "And your focus is not whether the game makes money, but whether we can do it now. This is very strange for many companies. So I said that this company is making waves, but I didn't say wrong."

Qiao Hong raised his forehead, it was really like this.Indeed, every time Xiao Gou proposes an idea for the next game, he always considers the feasibility.This is probably because he joined the business just to find something to do for himself, and he didn't think about how much money he would make.

"That was before, and it may be different now." Qiao Hong reminded, "Especially after the company develops, the company is no longer about the two of us, but also related to the lives of many people."

Qiao Hong recalled his parents' sighs. When the company grows big enough, their designs will be restricted and the market response must be taken into consideration.Because whether it is the company's shareholders or the company's employees, they all count on the company to make money.

"We may not care about money, but the future shareholders and employees of the company do." Although he couldn't bear to shatter Xiao Gou's innocence so early, Qiao Hong still felt that it would be better for Xiao Gou to wake up earlier, "You can't want to do this in the future. Whatever the game does."

Xiao Gou still had an indifferent smile on his face: "No, I think I can still make any game I want in the future. You see, every game I make now is not the mainstream of the market. As long as I make a game that is popular After one game, the shareholders will trust me and think that my strategy is correct, and will not judge me. And in the future, when the company grows bigger, I will definitely not be the only one making games. If they think that mainstream games make money, they can Let other game studios in the company make mainstream games, and I will give corresponding financial support."

Xiao Gou pointed to himself: "I will continue to be a pioneer and leave the achievements to other people in the company. I represent the direction of Red Dog. With me, Red Dog will continue to innovate."

Looking at Xiao Gou's confident expression, Qiao Hong couldn't help but speed up his heartbeat.

Qiao Hong pretended to be calm and said: "I am not sensitive to the market and prospects of game development. Since you are so confident, then I can only trust you."

Xiao Gou smiled and said: "Yes, but I can't guarantee that I am correct, so it all depends on Da Qiao. You are in charge of the company's operations, earn more money, and let me fight for Youlang's second and third times. Opportunity. So I said that the success of entrepreneurship depends on brothers, which is not wrong.”

Qiao Hong was a little embarrassed by Xiao Gou's praise, although his tone was still calm, his ears were pink: "Even without me, you still have the technology and ideas, and you can slowly accumulate resources, but the development will be a little slower. I'm not necessary."

Although Xiao Gou still had a smile on his face, his eyes were very serious: "There are not so many ifs, you are necessary."

Qiao Hong's breathing was stagnant, and suddenly he felt something was wrong.

He asked suspiciously: "Why are you suddenly so strange today, why do you keep praising me? Did you do something bad behind my back?"

Xiao Gou's expression froze, and he immediately said: "How is that possible! I just praised you and emphasized your importance to me!"

Qiao Hong's suspicious expression became more obvious: "No, I think there is definitely a problem. Frankly, I will be lenient."

Xiao Gou said weakly: "Sit in prison?"

Qiao Hong straightened his face immediately: "It seems that there is really a problem."

Xiao Gou laughed dryly: "Why do you say that?"

Qiao Hong started to move his wrist.

Xiao Gou put his hands together immediately: "Don't do this, it's really not an important matter."

Qiao Hong said: "Since it's not something important, why don't you dare to say it?"

Xiao Gou twitched and said, "Actually, it's not that I don't dare, it's just that I'm a little embarrassed."

Qiao Hong was puzzled: "What's the matter?"

Xiao Gou hesitated for a while, and said, "You have to promise not to get angry."

Qiao Hong was expressionless: "No guarantee."

Xiao Gou: "..."

Xiao Gou said pitifully, "Don't do this."

Qiao Hong crossed his arms and said, "You haven't said it yet, how do I know if I'm angry or not? Tell me quickly."

Xiao Gou hesitated for a while, but decided to confess and be lenient. Although he might really be in jail, but Qiao Hong is magnanimous, so maybe he should probably forgive him in the end?

"I just... just received a call from your friend when I was in the company, and then exchanged contact information with them privately without telling you, and built a group..." Xiao Gou stole a glance at Qiao Hong's face.

Qiao Hong frowned: "Then?"

Xiao Gou cried and said with a mournful face: "Then just gossip in the group. They talk about your past, and I talk about your present. Don't worry, I just talked about some daily things and told them that you are doing well. I I didn't even take a photo, even though you've already appeared on the scene..."

Qiao Hong's frown slowly unfolded.
