Chapter 747 Dream

Speaking of dreams, Hong Tao’s real dream is not to be the first killer in the world in the game. If he kills the first, it is another person’s game. He is just a participant.

What he wants to be the creator the most is because he always believes that only by creating new things is the most beneficial to human beings, so he wants to make a new game by himself.

This idea has been around a few years ago and has not been forgotten yet. But this dream is more complicated to realize, and the difficulty is much higher than the world's first kill, and it is still unfulfilled.

But Hong Tao was not idle either. Although he basically withdrew from Mantis Shrimp Company in name and became a pure shareholder of the company, there is a department that currently exists independently of the company, which is the game development department led by the little fat man Wang Li.

In the words of the fat man, no one in the company understands her, only Hong Tao can rely on her. So no one can lead her. The company's regulations can be abide by, but don't expect her to do other jobs.

What she does every day is to bring four or five young game architects recruited by her to keep playing games, discussing constantly, modifying their own game structures, and not reporting the progress of work to anyone other than Hong Tao.

In fact, there was no progress. The people she found were all the same as her. In Ouyang Fanfan's words, she was full of random thoughts, unrealistic fantasies and waste, and wanted to run away before she could learn to leave. If Hong Tao had not protected her, this department and these people would have been driven away by her long ago.

"Don't interfere with the work of this department. As long as they do not disturb the normal operation of the company, just pretend that they do not exist. My uncle has bought a hotel in the north and is now being renovated. I have built a separate studio for them in that building. I will move it at the end of the year, so it won't be hindering your eyes."

"Actually, it's not nice to say that if there is no such department, the Mantis Shrimp Company, there is no need to exist. If I want to make money, I can find more transactions than agent games in minutes. Why bother with this effort?"

"They are not dreaming or wasting money in vain. They are fulfilling a dream for me. If anyone dares to stop me, he will beat him!" Hong Tao was not spoiled at all in the face of Ouyang Fanfan's dissatisfaction. He could pretend to be confused and obsessed with anything else, but this matter was not possible.

By the way, Hong Tao also warns Ouyang Fanfan, don’t think that you are the second-in-command of the company now, and that you can also affect Qi Rui’s decisions, so you have to be upset. You should not be abusive to this problem. Whoever is the one who makes the decision must always understand in your mind, don’t mess with the primary and secondary.

Not only can't interfere, Mantis Shrimp Company also has to use the little popularity it has in Europe and the United States to poach the department all over the world. There is nothing outstanding about salary and benefits. The only thing that can be achieved is the concept proposed by Hong Tao and the cost he intends to pay.

Create a virtual world that is as close as possible to the real world, so that people all over the world can play the same game!

For this reason, the preliminary budget he gave was one billion yuan, and it would not be capped! The investment depends on how much money he could make. At present, it seems that he can only shout a slogan of one billion yuan. If it is more, it is a bit unrealistic.

Hong Tao doesn’t worry about whether anyone comes and whether the people who come are real and have real talents. Let’s leave professional matters to professionals, just point the direction and pay.

Even if the people who come are waste and scammers, the cost will be spent. There is no way. In the eyes of the world, people who can understand themselves are basically no different from madmen, fools, and scammers. People who are neither crazy nor stupid nor bad come, don’t want them when they come. It’s a big deal to create!

Speaking of the topic of making money, no one dared to express dissatisfaction with Hong Tao. Seeing that World of Warcraft, a pure European and American online game that has never been favored by domestic industry experts, is becoming more and more popular, and anyone who comes out to say that he is overestimating his abilities.

Since the day it landed in China, it has been setting records. At the end of February, the number of people online at the same time exceeded 700,000, not a certain day, but an average, and there is no moisture yet.

In fact, this data does not need to be announced to the public by Mantis Shrimp Company. Just ask the two companies that underwrote the sales of this game point card, and then go to count the sales of several websites that recharge online virtual point card and street convenience stores, newsstands, and convenience stores, and you can roughly calculate how many paid players are.

At this time, there are still people who are stubborn. They say that it is currently the rising period of the game. After everyone's level is full, sales will drop significantly, because players don't have to level up all day.

This time, Hong Tao and Mantis Shrimp Company don’t need to refute it. Someone who understands it has written an article to analyze this issue. He first analyzed the game mode of World of Warcraft in detail, and then came to a conclusion that leveling is just the beginning of this game, and the real time-consuming stage is after the maximum level.

Because this game is not for leveling, many things cannot be done before the maximum level. Moreover, it emphasizes teamwork very much, and a large number of players must do one thing together.

The person who wrote the article was the reporter who Hong Tao asked to bet at a press conference last year. He lost, and he was convinced. Without Hong Tao urging him, he took out the bet and doubled it. He wrote several articles in the magazine where he worked in a row introducing the details of this game. They were all long-term and well-founded, but they were not just a few things to make up for the numbers at first glance.

Of course, Hong Tao also saw the reprints online and remembered this reporter. People abide by the rules and be honest, so we can't say nothing. This quality should be encouraged.

How to encourage him? I also set up a small courtyard for him? It will definitely not be possible. He is not his own employee. Since he cannot reward him personally, then reward their magazines. I will buy your advertising space assembly? I have to say that it is for your article to make your leader happy, and then you will be happy. This is inevitable.

Hong Tao does not hate the media. He hates those media that have no bottom line, look forward, and talk nonsense. As long as you can speak out, it doesn’t matter if you name it in the media every day. Not only won’t hate you, but you also have to secretly give you a thumbs up, admire you for being scolded, and it makes sense.

If you have no brains, you will hate it if you call your father Hong Tao every day, or even more annoying, because they are misleading others by writing these things, just wanting to earn more than 1,800 yuan a month.

You said that just for such a little money, would you rather mislead a generation or several generations? Is this kind of person still considered a human? It is simply a cancer of society. Hong Tao can withstand deception or even betrayal, and can follow the guidance of a gentleman who takes revenge for ten years, but he has no endurance to ignorance. In his opinion, liars are much more stupid and cute than foolish. The former has at least a brain, while the latter is no different from animals.

The operating performance of World of Warcraft not only surprised domestic media, but also surprised foreign investors of Mantis Shrimp Company. After being surprised, it was time to eat the taste. Because the share price of Mantis Shrimp is rising higher and higher, it makes those who have not bought less and those who have bought less unhappy.

The most unhappy one was Pierce. He said that he and the company's senior management were confused by Hong Tao and should not have signed such a loose contract clause. As long as he calculated the operating data of Mantis Shrimp in the next five years, he would know how much benefit the company would get from World of Warcraft. It is worthwhile to spend ten years of manpower and material resources to make such a good game, but the fattest piece of meat was fooled by Hong Tao.

But the contract is the law, and no matter how much regret it, it is useless. At least there is no way to do it in the past five years. Moreover, Blizzard Company is not too unacceptable to this result. After all, there are still terms for sharing. The more Mantis Shrimp earns, the more they will share. It is much better than giving it to a company that has no ability to operate. As for how Blizzard will torture Mantis Shrimp Company when renewing the contract in five years, then let's talk about it later.

"It must be free! Your sailboat is also free!" But Pierce has waited less than five years later, and he is shameless when he is anxious. He has not heard anyone say that Marshall Manor belongs to Hong Tao, and there is also a large sailboat parked in the club. The manor is empty and the sailboat is idle, so let's collect some interest first. He wants to take his family to vacation, but he doesn't want to pay.
