In the previous life, Yang Dongxu had come to KTV many times to sing and other things, but this was his first time calling a girl. Because he came to the KTV as either a friend or a colleague, and he was acquainted with both men and women, and he never asked for a backup singer or anything.
But if you have never eaten pork, you have obviously seen pigs running away, so everyone knows what it is like to sing and drink. After all, if a man goes to a nightclub to find a woman to drink with him, he will know what he is looking for as long as he is not brainless.
When a man plays with a woman, the best stimulation is undoubtedly the ambiguous heckling of the woman. So they held hands while drinking, and even got close to each other, and then some people started teasing and talking about kissing and so on. Yang Dongxu didn't have any objection, and he also had a drink with the girl sitting next to Xiao Wu and others.
I was just drinking, and I don't know if I got high or something happened. The girl accompanying me reached out for a cigarette and Yang Dongxu handed one to her. But when a girl took her small bag and took out some pills that were obviously not serious, his expression naturally changed.
In fact, not only Yang Dongxu's expression changed, but the expressions of Xiao Wu and others also changed a bit. Although I have often done things like beating dogs and chasing chickens since I was a child. But as traditional rural people, they have never done anything bad, let alone taken drugs.
But at the same time his expression changed, Xiao Tao couldn't help but take a pill and look at it. Obviously, no one has seen this thing before, but most of them can guess what it is. After all, there is no shortage of TV sets in Yangjiacun, and everyone has enough brains to watch movies from Hong Kong and Taiwan.
"Boss, do you want to try it?" Seeing Xiao Tao picking it up and looking at it curiously, the young lady who took out the pills couldn't help but move forward and lay in Xiao Tao's arms.
"Don't hurt me!" Xiao Tao quickly shook his head and refused.
However, while refusing, the curiosity in his eyes could not be concealed. Although he knew it was definitely not a good thing, he always felt that he could escape safely if he tried it, and at the same time he was curious about what this thing felt like. As a result, once you put your foot in it, it is difficult to pull it out.
"This stuff is just a pill. It's not white powder. It's not addictive, and it makes you feel good after taking it." The drunken lady stuffed the pill into Xiao Tao's mouth with one hand and a wine glass with the other, trying to give it to Xiao Tao. Tao poured it down.
"Okay, it's getting late, let's go back." Yang Dongxu took up the position.
He had no intention of calling the police for a thorough investigation as the biological mother. Unless this thing was removed from the root, it would be useless to catch these small fish and shrimps. Even if these points are sealed, it won't be long before people find other places for bulk goods. So when faced with this kind of thing, it is only proper to hold your own bottom line and resist temptation.
"Okay, let's go." Xiao Wu pulled his brother up. In fact, he was also curious about what it felt like to eat that thing.
However, compared to Xiao Tao who was too young and his curiosity temporarily took over, Xiao Wu, who became a father, was naturally more mature. He wouldn't touch this thing, and naturally he couldn't let his brother touch it either.
"Xiaoli, the bosses are leaving. Let's toast to these bosses." The girl who was sitting next to Yang Dongxu just pulled the girl who took out the pills.
No one was too surprised when Xiaoli took out the pills. Obviously this was not the first time. But she didn't know why, although she felt that the guests who came today were strange, and they were generous enough to fish, she still felt a little unspeakable in her heart. Especially when Yang Dongxu frowned just now, she was so frightened that her body froze and she didn't dare to move.
"I'd like to toast all the bosses. Be sure to order me when you come to play in the future." Xiaoli changed her color and paused, then put away her things and laughed while holding the wine glass.
At the same time, he glanced at Yang Dongxu with some annoyance, seeing that a good cash machine was about to take the bait and then it just flew away. No one was happy. But if you were hanging out in a nightclub and still doing this, you would naturally look at him a little. Seeing that things were not going to work out now, she didn't force anything, otherwise she would be in more trouble if something happened.
1999 can be said to be a year of vigorous development for China's Internet. Sohu, Groom, NetEase...almost all Internet giants who will be familiar to future generations opened their pockets at this time and prepared to harvest and enter the IT industry. The first pot of gold.
Because Yang Dongxu's appearance poached Lei Jun and cut off "Legend", Shanda, which could have skyrocketed to 90,000 miles this year, is still the leader in anti-virus software, but it is somewhat stretched in other aspects. Although it is also planning to go public, without the cash cow of "Legend", this road will undoubtedly be much more bumpy.
After Yang Dongxu came out of his home, he first went to Feicheng to see Chen Hong. As the first project for which he accepted the work of Haina, although "Super Winner" has been following the outline planned by Yang Dongxu, Chen Hong was the one from beginning to end. Participate in execution.
Although the first episode of the program did not become an instant hit after it was aired, its widespread acclaim greatly boosted the ratings of Wan Provincial TV. The ratings of the subsequent two episodes of the program increased steadily, which gave both parties the confidence to promote this program. Make it a trump card.
After staying in Feicheng for three days, Yang Dongxu flew to Hefei. In the new year, he dug another hole for himself. After careful consideration, he split the game department from Dongxu Technology and established a new Internet company called Xuri Technology Co., Ltd.
The person in charge did not find anyone else, but sat directly in this position himself. Over the past two years, he has been constantly trying to accept various jobs.
But for now, except for Hurricane Construction, where he has to sit in the chairman's position, other companies are basically hands-off bosses. He undoubtedly lacked basic management convenience in the company's initial stage, so he simply split the game network company and became the general manager himself to hone his work abilities.
In fact, Yang Dongxu also hesitated to place the headquarters of Xuri Technology Company there at first. Shenzhen was undoubtedly the best choice because the Internet development trend there was very good, Zhongguancun was also good, or Magic City was also good. However, after careful consideration, he decided to locate the company in Hangzhou.
When Xuri Technology was founded, it was very low-key. The office was more than 100 square meters, and there was only a game department that had just been poached from South Korea. Then there was a boss and a financial officer who looked like a grassroots team.
However, compared to the shabby appearance, Yang Dongxu, who is now definitely a leader in the mainland business community, has strong capital. Therefore, Xuri Technology’s foundation was very strong.
The game is still in the testing phase, and it has already spent 10 million to build an absolutely top-notch server. In addition, server construction is still in full swing, and it is necessary to support all players around the world to be online at the same time.
"How was the test?" In an ordinary office area, Yang Dongxu walked into the game department, the only department in the company.
"The inner copy has been completed and 13 bugs have been fixed. No new problems have been found so far. The test after three days showed no problems." Quan Zhiming looked at the boss who was younger than himself with a look of respect and even fanaticism.
In fact, when Yang Dongxu was preparing to bring "Legend" back to China from South Korea, the R&D department of "Legend" was very repulsive.
Although Hong Kong and Taiwan stars are very popular in South Korea, many mainland stars have emerged in recent years and are loved by Koreans. But the impact on the mainland is the same as that of other foreigners who are prejudiced against China.
Quan Zhiming also feels that mainland China is still in the 1970s and 1980s, when even a car on the road was very rare. As for the Internet, and even games, it is simply a desert, okay? Going to the mainland is simply tantamount to suicide.
But under the temptation of high wages and the guarantee of a fixed five-year contract, the entire game development team was reluctantly brought back by Yang Dongxu.
When I first came to Hangzhou, although I was surprised that the mainland I saw was different from what I imagined, I was not too surprised. After all, although Hangzhou is prospering now, it is not the Hangzhou of later generations. Compared with South Korea, it is still slightly behind.
However, Hangzhou still looks like a modern city, which makes the game development team feel a little relieved that they no longer have to work in an office full of teachers.
Then the feeling of relief turned from surprise to shock, because although the office in front of me was not big. No matter it is the laid network, the computers used, or the servers used for testing.
Not to say they are all top-notch now, but they are definitely first-class, definitely one level or more better than what they use in Korea.
Then the boss who forcefully poached them from a continent that was originally thought to be an Internet desert. They were very dissatisfied at the beginning when they pointed out the "Legend" in the first regular meeting. But the more I listened, the more my eyes shone, and in the end I just worshiped.
Looking at these people as if they were fans seeing their idols, Yang Dongxu raised his lips with a proud smile: "As a veteran player of "Legend" for ten years, it is enough to just mention one or two classic settings of "Legend" in later generations. You guys are stunned.”
"Be careful and don't be careless. And be fully prepared. There may be more than 100,000 players on the first day of the game." He stood aside and looked at the game screen, as well as the regular test characters running and fighting on the map. Blame Yang Dongxu nodded with satisfaction.
Although the image quality still looks a bit rough, when the warrior uses [Brutal Crash], the image quality in some corners seems to be mosaic-like. However, the overall level is basically passable, and these detailed problems can only be repaired slowly.
"One hundred thousand?" Quan Zhiming looked stunned.
You must know that in South Korea, even if a well-known game company launches a new game, it cannot be said that the number of players will exceed 100,000 on the first day. What's more, although he saw that the company attached great importance to "Legend", he also spent a lot of money. But he never saw any advertising, which made him have no expectations for the number of players on the first day.
But as a game developer, he believes in the quality of his game and has information about his game. Even if it is not popular at first, as time goes by and his reputation gradually grows, he believes that "Legend" will definitely succeed.
But this is obviously a long process, and he is ready for a protracted battle. But who would have thought that when his boss came up and said that the number of players on the first day of opening the server would reach 100,000, it would immediately become a hit. This is simply incredible.
"Be prepared, I plan to guarantee 20 districts on the first day." Yang Dongxu smiled and patted Quan Zhiming on the shoulder, which made him look shocked again.
You must know that the servers built by Rising Sun Technology and their game zone settings can have up to 6,000 people online in one zone. The number of players in the 20 new areas on the first day was reaching 120,000, which was 20,000 more than the 100,000 that he originally thought was incredible.
"Be prepared first, be prepared for anything unexpected." Yang Dongxu smiled and did not explain.
As a Korean game developer who came to China for the first time, he obviously didn’t understand the craziness of Chinese gamers. In fact, it is not only him who does not understand, but also the current Chinese game companies do not understand the existence of this crazy strength and the huge cake that expands rapidly once it is opened.
But they didn’t know that Yang Dongxu knew that, so he actually made a conservative estimate of the 120,000 players in the opening area. You should know that although he did not make an announcement to promote the legend, because the current social perception of online games is as fearful as snakes and scorpions, he wanted to advertise at all. Cannot be reviewed.
The domestic Internet has just started, and there is no chat software yet. The browser is just like that and there is no way to do online promotion, so naturally there is no way to place ads.
Although there is no way to place advertisements, game promotion has already begun. At present, the largest Internet cafe management system in the country is developed by Dongxu Technology, and the fertile ground for Legend's rapid growth is Internet cafes.
So as soon as the open beta ends here and starts, the "Legend" port will appear on the display page in all regular Internet cafes across the country. Even though it was only 1999, millions of domestic netizens already remembered it, okay? With such a huge base, even if only a few percent of people play "Legend", the unit is tens of thousands of people.
