When it was time to get off work, as expected, Chai Mao announced, "Zhu An, Lu Zixin, Lao Bai … You guys finish this task before you leave."
Zhu An said bitterly, "Supervisor, it will take at least 11 pm to finish this!"
Chai Mao stared at him and said, "Why? You don't want to? You can leave if you don't want to! "
Zhu An had no choice but to shut up. He did not want to lose this job. However, Lu Zixin was unhappy. He worked overtime for the company every day and didn't get a single cent of overtime pay. If it were not for Ding Yu, he would have quit long ago.
He picked up his things and said, "I'm sorry, supervisor. I have something to do today. I'll leave first."
With that, he ignored Chai Mao's murderous stare and left the office.
"That little bastard really left!" Chai Mao scolded, "It's because of such unprofessional employees that the company's performance is not good!"
An old fox said, "That's right. This intern is too unprofessional." The old employees were paid overtime, but the interns were not.
For the Grim Reaper Gaming Company, hiring interns was like hiring cheap labor.
Once the internship was over, they would fire them and then hire new interns. They had done this countless times.
"I'll fire him next month!" Chai Mao said coldly, "These days, four-legged animals are hard to find, but two-legged people are everywhere!"
Zhu An saw this and quickly pleaded for Lu Zixin, "Supervisor, he really has something to do. He … "
Before he could finish, Chai Mao interrupted, "Why do you care? Just do your job. "
8 pm, Blue Hole Gaming Company's Huaxia branch. The branch manager, Zhang Xiaofeng, was still busy in his office. His secretary and assistant, Li Ming, was also there.
Zhang Xiaofeng was in his forties and was an elite in the online gaming industry. He was a talent that the Blue Hole Gaming Company had spent a lot of money to hire, and he was very professional.
"What a headache. My phone number has been exploding with complaints recently!" Zhang Xiaofeng sighed, "Because of the certification, the number of players from the Huaxia region has dropped significantly, and our performance has dropped significantly!"
Recently, in order to prevent cheating everywhere. The officials of the PUBG game decided to temporarily ban accounts with good battle records in the game. Those who were reported a lot would also be banned. As a result, many normal players were affected, and complaints were everywhere.
Secretary Li Ming also said helplessly, "Why hasn't the technology department at the headquarters come up with a good idea? There's nothing we can do if this results in a drop in performance! "
"How's Penguin going?" Zhang Xiaofeng asked. Penguin Corporation was going to be the distributor for their game, and they were still discussing the distribution fee.
Li Ming shook his head and said, "We still can't raise the agency fee. Penguin Corporation asked us to reduce the price by helping us fix the game's loopholes. This is really our Achilles' heel."
"Yeah." Zhang Xiaofeng nodded. "Their company's technology is indeed much better than ours."
"Alright, do you have any other questions? If not, then get off work. "
Li Ming said, "That's right, Manager. Our official mailbox has been hacked. Someone sent us an email saying that it's the complete version of PUBG: The Great Escape. They want to sell us the patch for the bug. "
"There's such a thing?" Zhang Xiaofeng was surprised. "Even our company's email was hacked! Has it been solved? "
"No." Li Ming shook his head and said, "The technology department hasn't been able to solve it yet."
"Have you seen what's in the mailbox?" Zhang Xiaofeng asked.
"No." Li Ming still shook his head. "Manager, I don't know if this hacker is playing a prank or something. He actually called me today and wanted to sell this thing to us? Don't you think this is a joke? We have to spend our own money to buy our own game! "
Zhang Xiaofeng listened to his description of the matter, but frowned and said, "Look at what's in his mailbox." He felt that this hacker was quite capable. Otherwise, their technical staff would not have been unable to solve the problem in the mailbox for such a long time.
"Alright." Although he felt that it was a waste of time, Li Ming still opened the mailbox as instructed and downloaded the game.
"Isn't this just chicken dinner? What's so special about it? "Li Ming's tone was disdainful." That hacker is really sick! "
"No!" Zhang Xiaofeng entered the game in test mode. "Look, the smoothness is much better than ours. Also, the clarity and details are improved by a lot! "
"Eh? It's true! "Li Ming finally noticed.
"Interesting." Zhang Xiaofeng's heart skipped a beat. He said, "Is there anyone in the technical department? Get them to test it quickly and see if those plug-ins can be used on this. "
Blue Hole Games Company naturally had those plug-ins for chicken dinner that were circulating on the Internet. They even designed their own plug-ins to find loopholes and improve them.
Soon, the game that Lu Zixin sent over was sent for testing.
In less than half an hour, the technical staff came over excitedly to report the results.
"Manager, it's been tested! This version is really the perfect version! It has fixed all the loopholes that we have and has even done a high degree of optimization! It can be said that currently on the Internet, there are no plug-ins that can attack it! "
"What!" Zhang Xiaofeng and Li Ming were shocked. It was really the perfect version?
"How is this possible?" Li Ming questioned. "We haven't even researched it internally. How can an outsider develop a perfect version without our original program?"
"It's true!" The technical staff's tone was also filled with disbelief. He said, "To be honest, even we find it hard to believe. But after testing, it is indeed so. This version is even better than the one designed by Blue Hole's headquarters! "
"How much better?" Zhang Xiaofeng asked.
"At least … ten versions ahead of us!" The technical staff said.
"Ten versions ahead of us!" The two of them didn't know what to say. Assuming that developing a new version required a quarter, this was ten quarters, more than two years!
In the gaming industry, two years was the lifespan of a game. It could be said that the version that was sent to the mailbox was invincible!
Li Ming sucked in a breath of cold air and said in a shocked tone, "So, what the person on the phone said today was true?"
He still found it unbelievable. Who would have thought that an unknown person would call and say that they had perfected their game? It was impossible.
Otherwise, why would Penguin Corporation spend so much money to cooperate with Blue Hole?
But the reality was that the other party had actually done it! It sounded like a story!
"It's actually true!" Zhang Xiaofeng thought of more.
The other party actually had a more perfect version of their chicken dinner game. This meant that the other party already knew all the information about their game! That was too scary. If the other party was a business competitor, they could use this trick to kill them!
For example, they could secretly develop those private servers or sell this information to other online gaming companies to copy their work.
If that was really the case, the company would suffer a huge loss! Blue Hole Gaming Corporation was not a gaming giant. It was not easy for them to come up with a popular game. They could not suffer such a blow!
"No, we must contact him as soon as possible!" Zhang Xiaofeng said anxiously, "Xiao Li, you were too careless! If the other party sold his program information to other companies, we would be in deep trouble! "
Li Ming had just thought of that, and his face turned pale. If that was the case, the company's management would definitely be furious, and all the blame would fall on him!
"Oh right, he wanted to sell it to us today. He probably wants to cooperate with us," Li Ming said.
"I hope so." Zhang Xiaofeng was very anxious. "Quickly contact him!"
