After resting for two days, Xiao Yunhai accompanied Zhao Wanqing to the Grammy Awards Ceremony.
Like Xiao Yunhai, Zhao Wanqing was nominated for eight awards including Best Singer, Best Album, Best Single, and Most Popular Female Singer with last year's "My Heart Will Go On" album. At the same time, Xiao Yunhai was also nominated for Best Album Producer.
When the plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport, it was seven o 'clock in the evening in Los Angeles. The people who came to pick them up were his brother-in-law, Zhang Yuan, and his butler, Ivor Spencer.
In the car, Xiao Yunhai asked about the situation of War of the Kings.
Zhang Yuan said, "It will enter the internal testing stage in half a month."
Xiao Yunhai was stunned, and said, "So fast?"
Zhang Yuan smiled. "It's been three months. It's already considered slow."
Xiao Yunhai said, "That's great. Zhang Yuan, I really have to thank you guys. By the way, is there anyone in this group who wants to stay? Especially that Mouse. If he can stay, I can let him be the person in charge of Storm Game Company. "
Zhang Yuan said, "Big Brother, I've helped you sound them out when I was in the past. Most of them, including Mouse, want to stay, but it's hard to leave their homeland. Their parents are in Hua Xia. It's basically impossible for them to work in Los Angeles. "
Xiao Yunhai thought for a moment and said, "I don't have to let them stay in America. It's fine to have Allen and the others to run the game, but the game production needs Mouse and the others. I might as well set up a Storm Game Company branch in Hua Xia. Mouse will be the head and will be in charge of the game production. "
Zhao Wanqing asked, "What about Storm's R&D department?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Spend a lot of money to recruit. There are so many game designers in America. I don't believe that we can't find a genius. "
Zhang Yuan said, "It's not difficult to make a game. What's difficult is the creativity. As long as the creativity is good and the game is fun, it will definitely succeed. When I was in university, I knew a very capable American who went to Hua Xia to study. His name was Tommy Sydney, and he graduated from Harvard University in America. I even had a meal with him a few days ago. Unfortunately, he is now in charge of the R&D department of Mi Ke 'er Game Company, or he would be very suitable. "
"Mi Ke 'er Game Company?" Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "Why haven't I heard of it?"
After acquiring the Storm Game Company, Xiao Yunhai did some research on the whole game industry. He remembered all the famous game companies in various countries, but there was absolutely no Mi Ke 'er Game Company.
Zhang Yuan said, "It's a company under Mikestel Games that specializes in standalone games."
Xiao Yunhai came to a sudden realization and said, "No wonder I've never heard of it."
Compared to online games, standalone games were easier to create, but the profits were not great. The main source of income was some download fees, and it could not be charged through cards like online games.
In the entire gaming industry, the market share of standalone games was not even one-tenth of that of online games.
Zhao Wanqing asked, "Zhang Yuan, since Tommy Sydney is so powerful, why does he work for Mi Ke 'er? Isn't this a place where heroes are useless? "
Zhang Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "This guy is a Casanova. The manager of Mi Ke 'er Game Company is a girl he likes. For her sake, Tommy was willing to work for her in the company. Otherwise, with his ability, he would have been famous in the game industry. "
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "This guy is really stupid. He doesn't know the meaning of the phrase 'distance makes the heart grow fonder'. He hangs around in front of her all day. If the girl is interested in him, she would have been with him long ago. How could she wait for such a long time? Zhang Yuan, ask him out at noon tomorrow. I'll talk to him. "
Zhang Yuan smiled and said, "No problem."
Soon, the three returned to the manor villa. Mouse and others had been waiting for them in the dining room.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Xiao Yunhai said, "Brothers, thank you for your efforts and painstaking efforts in the production of 'War of the Kings'. When I was in the car, I heard Zhang Yuan say that it would enter the closed beta in half a month. This speed is far beyond my imagination, and it also shows your powerful ability. Come on, let me toast you. Cheers. "
"Cheers."
After drinking a glass of wine, Mouse smiled and said, "Boss Xiao, it's us who should be thanking you. In just three months, you've given us tens of thousands of dollars in income, which we didn't even dare to think about before. When I threw 20,000 dollars on the tea table during the New Year, the sense of achievement was indescribable. My mother cried and said that I've finally become successful. "
The others nodded.
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "This is what you deserve. When we were in the car, I told Zhang Yuan that I want to set up a Storm Game Company branch in Hua Xia. It will be responsible for game development and production, and the game operation will be handed over to the headquarters. I wonder if you guys are interested? "
Mouse's eyes lit up and said, "Of course, I'm interested. If it weren't for the fact that Merrica is too far from Hua Xia, I would like to stay in Storm. "
"I agree. If we follow Boss Xiao, our future will definitely be bright. "
"I agree, too."
"As long as it's in Hua Xia, I'll do it."
Seeing that everyone agreed, Xiao Yunhai was very happy and said, "That's great. Mouse will be the head of this branch, and you'll be responsible for recruiting as many technicians and programmers as you need. The basic monthly salary is 10,000 Hua Xia dollars, and after the game is finished, you'll be given a commission according to the results. If you can make a World of Warcraft, hehe, I guarantee that everyone here will be multi-millionaires. "
Mouse thought for a moment and said, "Boss, there's no problem with the game production, but it's a bit difficult for us to plan it."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "The planning department of Storm Game Company will be responsible for the planning, you don't need to worry about it. I have a lot of ideas in my head, and when the time comes, you just need to come up with it. "
Mouse laughed loudly and said, "Then there's no problem. Come, let's toast to our beautiful tomorrow. "
"Cheers."
The drinking session lasted until 11: 00 pm before it ended.
Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing took a hot bath and fell asleep after making love.
At noon the next day, Xiao Yunhai met Tommy Sydney, whom Zhang Yuan mentioned, in a French restaurant.
He was about the same age as Zhang Yuan, and was not tall, only about 1.7 meters. He had an ordinary appearance, small eyes, and some acne on his face.
Tommy was very excited to see Xiao Yunhai. He took out an album he just bought from his bag and said excitedly, "Mr. Xiao, I'm your big fan. When I heard Zhang Yuan say that you're going to treat me to a meal this morning, I was so happy that I almost went crazy. God, it's like a dream. Mr. Xiao, can you give me your autograph and take a picture with me? "
"Of course."
Xiao Yunhai picked up a pen and signed his name on the album. Then he took a picture with Tommy, and the three of them sat down.
After ordering some steak and hamburgers, Zhang Yuan asked, "Tommy, how's it going? Have you settled your goddess yet? "
Tommy's face darkened. "No. Sigh. I've been chasing her for three whole years, but I didn't even get to touch her hand. It's so sad. I'm ready to give up now. "
Zhang Yuan said, "Sincerity can move metal and stone. Keep working hard, and you'll succeed one day. "
Tommy nodded and said, "You're right, even though I know you're just comforting me. Mr. Xiao, why did you ask Zhang to look for me? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Our Storm Game Company needs a person to be in charge of the technical department. Zhang Yuan thinks highly of you and said that you're very talented and capable, so I hope you can join Storm."
Tommy smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, since Zhang Yuan recommended me to you, he should have told you why I'm staying in Steer."
Xiao Yunhai drank two mouthfuls of juice and said, "That's right. I heard from him, so I'm more confident in inviting you to my place. "
Tommy was stunned and asked in confusion, "Mr. Xiao, what do you mean? Why don't I understand? "
Xiao Yunhai said confidently, "Tommy, let me ask you. Have you ever thought about why you've been chasing her for three years and still haven't succeeded?"
Tommy's eyes flashed and said, "Why?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Two reasons. Either she has someone else in mind and doesn't like you at all, or you're too useless. If it's the first reason, no matter where you work, the result will be the same. She won't be with you. If it's the second reason, then come to our Storm Game Company. As long as you design a game like World of Warcraft and become successful and famous, it would be much easier for you to woo her when the time comes. Tommy, if you were a woman, would you fall in love with a subordinate who listens to you? No matter how strong a woman is, she needs someone who can shelter her from the wind and rain. You can't even compare to her, how are you going to protect her? "
In his previous life, Xiao Yunhai had never been in a relationship. After transmigrating to this world, although he married Zhao Wanqing, they were already in love with each other when he confessed to her. Also, because he was a celebrity, he didn't have a serious relationship like normal people.
Therefore, to be honest, Xiao Yunhai was just a fledgling. Who would have thought that such a fledgling would turn into a love expert to comfort others in order to keep a talent. Xiao Yunhai was speechless.
What made him even more speechless was that Xiao Yunhai's words actually had an effect on Tommy.
