The strongest game production method

Chapter 2 "You Squirt with Blood!"

==

"It's amazing, Yu Hanguang. If you grab a talking marketing manager, you're the only one who can beat a programmer."

Chi Lan finished appeasing Wei Bo, saying that she would inform Yu Hanguang first, and then let the two of them have a face-to-face interview before entering the conference room.

She has been in Love Dream for more than four years, and usually has a lot of work exchanges with Yu Hanguang; both of them are good people who know the meaning of music by listening to string songs, and the relationship is maintained quite well.

"Also, here, here," she pointed to her ankle again, intending to liven up the stagnant atmosphere in the conference room, "what's the matter, you have to buy me a bottle of safflower oil, too?"

"...I'm sorry." Yu Hanguang didn't have the heart to tease her at the moment, "Lao Meng sent you to Xingshi to question the crime?"

"Even if Mr. Meng doesn't say anything, I have the obligation to investigate clearly." Chi Lan's voice was crisp, "Why did you beat up the new programmer?"

Fine.

The same question was asked by the immediate supervisor Wan Minzhe an hour ago, and the CEO Meng Ai half an hour ago.

This is the third answer Yu Hanguang has to face today.

"I've already explained it clearly to the bosses. That kid's ability to work is not good, and there is a problem with the code. After I pointed it out, he was too angry to move first." Yu Hanguang played the scale again with his fingers on his thigh, " I was really, really, self-defense."

He was tired of saying this.

Chi Lan didn't make any more detours: "Why did I hear from Wei Bo that you changed his code? If that's the case, it's really justifiable for him to hit you."

Yu Hanguang stood up abruptly: "Don't listen to that kid's one-sided words. Chi Lan, always ask why first, and then ask if it is right. The code is written for our operation activities. If something goes wrong, everyone must bear the responsibility. In other words, the progress of the project will be delayed even more. The time node of summer vacation is the golden period for growth, and you can’t wait for a minute.”

"You said that if I change his code, what good will it do for this project, for the marketing operation team, and for me?"

Chi Lan was taken aback by Yu Hanguang's cannon-like explanations, and felt that the meeting room was stuffy.

Her eyes subconsciously turned to the window - Yizhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River, the climate is humid, and the summer is even more sunny and rainy; at this time, the dark clouds in the sky are moving very fast, and a thunderstorm is approaching.

"Of course there are benefits."

Chi Lan was startled, turned her head and found that Wei Bo had arrived outside the meeting room at some point, still clutching...

A bottle of red wine?

Dark clouds loomed over the city outside the window, all the incandescent lights in the meeting room were turned on, and the corridor was somewhat gloomy due to the diffuse reflection of the glass door film.

The product analysis meeting next door has stopped again, and some employees have already secretly rushed to the front line of eating melons, constantly poking their heads outside.

The glass door was slightly shaken by a series of sounds, like a crumbling frontier line in two barriers - Yu Hanguang was in the light, Wei Bo was in the dark; while Chi Lan stood at the door, blocking some of the tense air.

Wei Bo calmly shook the bottle and said, "Of course there are benefits. Otherwise, how can you drink red wine with peace of mind?"

Now it was Yu Hanguang's turn to be restless.

This bottle of red wine is the focus of his work recently.

Ameng Games has been established for seven years, and the seeds have grown into saplings. At this time, it is at the critical stage of the B round of financing.What the bosses mean is, hurry up and sell melons to Wang Po and do a good job of publicity.

Propaganda naturally needs to be coordinated with the media.Yu Hanguang's business group has never had a full-time public relations officer. In Meng Ai's words, "Companies with a valuation of less than [-] million US dollars do not need to set up a public relations position." The job naturally fell to Yu Hanguang from the marketing operation team.

Two weeks later, Aimeng will invite several important media in the game industry to visit the company.

Yu Hanguang knew the meaning of Rong B round to the company and to himself, so he broke his heart for the event.As big as planning and choosing a venue; as small as changing the slogan and buying materials; he does everything by himself.

Some time ago, he inquired that the chief reporter of a well-known media known as "Wonderful Pen and Iron Man" would also attend, and his name did not show his face often, so he agreed to it for the sake of the bosses.It is much more cost-effective to deal with this person than to deal with those small media who come to mess around with money and coffee breaks.

Once a media teacher becomes well-known, the relationship with the company becomes a "different offensive and defensive situation", so Yu Hanguang attaches great importance to it.

One of the major hobbies of "Miaobi Tiegan" is the Cabernet Franc of Chateau Mouton—it turns out that "Tiegan" also means a love of drinking in addition to being fast in public relations drafts.

Chateau Mouton is far away across the ocean, and Cabernet Franc is well-known but has a small output. Yu Hanguang mobilized all the human connections he could use, and finally got a bottle of it through the domestic agent.

There is no suitable cabinet in the office, so he simply puts the wine box by the table like a baby, so that it is always in a safe area of ​​vision, so that he can feel at ease.

And this bottle of wine was in Wei Bo's hands.

Yu Hanguang's accumulated anger instantly turned into panic, and he stammered, "Wei...Wei Bo, put down the wine first, if you have something to say...say it well."

"I can let it go. You answer me first, did you change the code?" Wei Bo asked.

"I haven't." His tone was still firm, "It's still the same sentence, what good will changing the code do me?"

Wei Bo looked at the red wine, and then turned his gaze to Yu Hanguang: "You didn't want to do this operation in the first place, and changing the code is purely to put the blame on me. I'm new here, and it's inevitable that I will be tricked by the outside world; after I make a mistake , you can just find any reason to drive me away, it's not difficult."

On the side, Chi Lan's smile froze on her face, and she slowly moved her swollen ankle, which was on fire, trying to escape this pin-point match, for fear of being accidentally injured by the arrows that sprang out at any time.

She thought to herself, although Aimeng's salary is high, at least the salary has to be broken into three parts: one part is medical expenses, and the other part is mental damage expenses.

The last petal is the serious labor remuneration.

"You have the computer in your hands, how can I change it? Do you want to use your mind?" Seeing that Wei Bo had guessed his mind, Yu Hanguang avoided his gaze, lowered his eyelids and found that the sweat on his chest had soaked his T-shirt.

Wei Bo said: "At the operation meeting the day before yesterday, you sat next to me. At that time, I called up the code page to do a final check. Later, because I answered the phone, I temporarily went out for a few minutes. At that time, you deleted a A short buried point triggers the code."

Without burying points, the event page cannot be counted, and the final background lacks the statistics function of the number of participants in real time, which is a major mistake for online operation activities.

To put it more seriously, it means that the programmer who wrote this code is stupid and lazy.

Wei Bo always remembered the sneer on the corner of Yu Hanguang's mouth when he found out the problem.Although the arc of that ridicule was shallow, in Wei Bo's eyes, it was the deepest insult to him, and it was the fuse that made him take the lead in punching Yu Hanguang.

"The project is in a rush, and you keep urging me. The event went live after the operation meeting, and I didn't have time to review it. Then, you came to find fault." Wei Bo's face was as sinking as water, but he didn't give Yu Hanguang a chance to accept the call. "The fact is that so."

The raindrops began to fall, hitting the glass from time to time, making a characteristic cracking sound.

Yu Hanguang's scalp was numb, and he was still holding on: "Oh, the truth? It is a fact that there is no evidence to presume guilt, and then kill him. The programmer's logic is really meticulous!"

Wei Bo squeezed the wine bottle tightly and covered the cork with his palm: "There are people coming and going in the meeting room, and our seat is on the side. There is a blind spot, and the computer screen is facing the camera. You must know this to be so confident .”

Yu Hanguang said angrily, "You're spewing blood!"

Wei Bo sneered and shook his head: "Up to now, you are still lying."

After speaking, he raised the wine bottle and threw it against the wall.

"Don't...don't! Wei Bo, Mr. Wei, Mr. Wei!" Yu Hanguang waved his hand anxiously, and almost knelt down.

"The code was indeed changed by me at the operation meeting. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I apologize to you. Please stop...stop!"

There was a sudden thunderclap from the sky, covering the sound of glass shattering.The dark brown liquid quickly spread and seeped into the carpet of the meeting room, like a pool of terrifying blood.

"Sudden myocardial infarction needs to lie down on the ground, with nitroglycerin. Does the company have nitroglycerin?" Wei Bo took the time to look at Yu Hanguang, who was holding a heart and his face was pale. "I have learned first aid knowledge, and I can help with chest compressions."

Yu Hanguang was so angry and hated that he couldn't say a word.

He slumped back in the swivel chair, staring straight at the wreckage of the wine bottle on the ground, wondering which one had more broken pieces, the bottle or his own heart.

Wait a moment……

This wine, why is this wine foaming?

Yu Hanguang jumped up from the chair suddenly, squatted down, got some "blood" on his finger, and sniffed it at the tip of his nose.

It's Coke!

He went to look at the pile of broken wine bottles. There was no sign of Mouton Villa on them. It was clear that he took his team members to work overtime to eat box lunches a few days ago, and opened it casually in order to reward the children. I bought a "flat replacement" when I was on the road.

No wonder Wei Bo was holding the mouth of the bottle, and the wrapping paper rushed to the inside, just to prevent him from seeing that it was a counterfeit bottle that had been opened.

I also blamed myself for being dizzy with anger and not paying attention to the details.

Damn, it was put together.

……

"How did you know about that bottle of red wine?" Chi Lan didn't dare to stay in the conference room, and went out with Wei Bo on the pretext of going to Auntie Cleaning to clean it up.

"First, he pasted several sticky notes next to his computer to buy red wine." Wei Bo said, "Second, a few days ago, he was chattering for a long time."

After her good looks, Chi Lan also admired Wei Bo's attention and analysis ability.

She asked again: "Also, you went to President Qin's office just now, didn't you really mention resignation?"

Wei Bo shook his head: "No. Mr. Qin has already set a time to communicate with me 1v1. But this accident happened, and I couldn't find him."

Chi Lan pulled her broken hair behind her ears and let out a soft breath.

The next day was Friday, early in the morning, Chi Lan went into Meng Ai's office to give a report.

Then she sent an email to all staff in the name of the personnel team, briefly describing the big news that happened to Aimeng yesterday:

[Business Group - Marketing Operations Team Yu Hanguang (Employee Number: EM006) and Technology Group - Development Team Wei Bo (Employee Number: EM143) had a physical conflict due to work problems, and the impact was relatively bad.After investigation and verification, the processing results are hereby announced:

Yu Hanguang deducted the monthly performance in June and canceled the qualification for the year-end evaluation.Weibo deducted third-quarter performance. 】

……

Yu Hanguang frowned, staring at the emotionless bureaucratic articles on the screen, he felt that Meng Ai could only be described in four words:

Duanshui Master.

In the email, the reason for the beating was summarized as [work problem], and there was no mention of Yu Hanguang's bad behavior of changing the code.The two of them punched each other, and Wei Bo threw red wine, which was euphemistically described as a [relatively bad] physical conflict.

Meng Ai said "seriously and seriously", but in the end he saved face.

But after all, I made a mistake first, and the punishment is heavier than Wei Bo, and it is only natural——

It's no big deal to cancel the evaluation at the end of the year. Anyway, Yu Hanguang is in Aimeng, and he never relies on his reputation to convince others.

It's just that the award bonus that could be obtained has gone, and it hurts.

He thought of Wei Bo again, this e-mail was short of writing the words "quiet things and calm people" in the subject line, which was enough to make this guy speechless.As a newcomer, he was fined another three months of performance. As long as he has a little bit of discernment, he will never stay in Aimeng again.

Yu Hanguang's ups and downs were interrupted by the sound of footsteps, and he saw his subordinate Zhou Xiaosheng running over, holding two huge paper bags full of coffee, milk and tea.The cold breath lingered around the bag, and tiny drops of water slid down the cup.

Zhou Xiaosheng took out a glass from a separate small paper bag: "Master, don't be angry! Have a cup of coffee. Your favorite Dirty, I specially asked the lady in the cafe to freeze the cup for a few hours in advance, and the coffee is bitter. , and you are super sweet."

A transparent cover was added to the glass, and it was wrapped several times with tape to prevent splashes.

Yu Hanguang looked at the nondescript Dirty: "..."

He seemed to think of something, and handed over the high-end VR headset that he bought from Haitao a few days ago to Zhou Xiaosheng: "I just got it, it's still hot, try it out, and remember to submit an experience report to me."

Zhou Xiaosheng's eyes lit up, and he almost lost his temper, and returned to his work station with the beautiful headset in his arms.

The children from the marketing operation group gathered around one after another, and each chose their favorite drink. The chattering laughter made Yu Hanguang feel at ease.

Dirty had to swallow a big gulp to get the taste, but he had just finished drinking it greedily, before the aroma lingered twice on the tip of his tongue, the surroundings fell silent instantly, and he could smell a needle drop for a while.

With the computer on his back, Wei Bo stood in front of the empty desk diagonally opposite Yu Hanguang, with a few development team employees scattered behind him.

"There are not enough seats in the technical group, Mr. Qin asked us to move here first."

All of Aimeng's recruiters are technicians, and the technicians' positions are tight. This is the truth.But did CTO Qin Haotian lose his memory, or did it on purpose?

Want to see a Fight Club sequel?

Yu Hanguang slammed the glass on the table with a "bang", and got up to find Qin Haotian.

As expected, the Buddha disappeared again. He leaned in the corridor for a moment of silence, and knocked on the door of the CEO's office next to him.

Meng Ai's office is simply furnished, with only a computer desk and a set of light blue reception sofas.This makes the two LEGO framed pictures on the wall even more eye-catching.

A set of black and white two-color, the spelling is a line of code: while (life) {hope=true;}

He can read it clearly - there is hope in life.

According to Qin Haotian, this was the most difficult time in Aimeng's early years, and Meng Ai used a line of code to boost morale.

The other set is gaudy, quite bright, and the writing is tacky.He couldn't help laughing every time he saw it, because it spelled:

【Play more games and less sulk】.

But in the current situation, he was sullen.

Meng Ai was leaning in the swivel chair to try out a new game. He took off the headset when he heard the noise, and seemed to understand why he came: "It's fine to change someone else's code, and I don't even want to see it?"

As soon as he said this, Yu Hanguang understood that Qin Haotian must have made such an arrangement at the behest of his boss.

Yu Hanguang had no choice but to smile bitterly and said: "Old Meng, I was wrong. But you punished me, and if you still do this, you are slapping me in the face..."

"You're usually not very smart, why did your IQ drop when you got into Wei Bo?" Meng Ai took a sip of tea unhurriedly, "Wei Bo is a graduate of Jinhai University, a prestigious school, and a university in Jingzhou. The factory has been working for so long, and it is a real full-stack. It’s just a matter of the original company’s development, and the business department was taken over by us. Yu Hanguang, don’t underestimate him.”

He still had a smile on his face, but changed the topic: "Do you know why I want to disqualify you from being selected for excellence?"

Too many accidents happened in the past two days, Yu Hanguang didn't have time to think about it, and he was indeed caught up in the question right now, so he wanted to distinguish for a moment.

"The cancellation of the evaluation means that you can only prove your strength through projects." Meng Ai paused for a moment, resting his elbows on the table, "Even if you don't want to prove your strength, you still want money, right? Not much, but don’t say you don’t like it.”

Like a puppet on a string, Yu Hanguang nodded his head hastily, then shook his head in a panic.

Aimeng is well-known in the industry for his generous salary and rewards. His house and car are not blown by strong winds.

As for the year-end awards that everyone is looking forward to, in addition to the cake that everyone is happy with, most of them are in the "two excellent" awards that are scarce - the Outstanding Employee Award and the Excellent Project Award.

There are always employees who joke that if you get the "two excellent", you don't have to work in Aimeng, and you can lie down and dream for a whole year.

"You know, although the company has been running very fast in the past two years, there are very few truly successful games. Shootouts, racing cars, secret rooms...whatever we do is popular, but none of them are popular."

Meng Ai continued: "The company is still relying on a few old games to make money. If this continues, even if it gets money, the development will not be optimistic."

"Everything is foregone, and if not forewarned, it will be abandoned. Aimeng is trapped in Aimeng's style because of Aimeng's thinking." Meng Ai got up, "No one has entered the company for a long time. To put it bluntly, it is a stagnant pool. "

"But we need new projects after all, and new projects need new ideas and new people."

He walked up to Yu Hanguang: "Yu Hanguang, you also put away your little cleverness who beat around the bush. Regarding the project, take it easy."

"There must be one this year."

Teacher Wei (eyes of wisdom): You fell down before I exerted any force.

Mr. Meng (tired eyes): Don't hit me any more!
