"The feedback on the new functions we launched this time, such as online quizzes, fishing, logging, and identification and collection, has been very good. Most players welcome these online auxiliary functions that are not so... hard-core, especially life and leisure players.
, we have collected online and offline feedback and are preparing to further develop it and make more modifications and additions to the mainstream game process and content."
"The programming department has initially understood Canaan's development model, logic and language. Next, we will continue to recruit talents from major scientific research institutes and universities, organize more and stronger capable forces, and strive to make Canaan games
Incorporate more Chinese culture and elements.”
"The marketing department is relatively optimistic about the overall information of the 6th beta. Although the publicity has not yet started, it has already set off a related craze offline. Various places have spontaneously organized prayers and celebrations related to the 6th beta. Everyone is watching and waiting for the qualifications for the game.
The distribution method... it’s just not appropriate to delay it any longer. The final battle expansion pack for the 5th beta has been released, and we don’t expect much time left.”
"Last quarter, the legal department launched lawsuits against multiple major infringements, saving the company tens of billions of economic losses, and cooperated with the International Department to effectively provide a solid and powerful escort for the promotion of the game... Reaching in-depth cooperation
The number of countries and regions has expanded to 38, covering a population of 260 million. However, the level of economic development in these regions is low, and the public security and stability are
It is definitely a big problem, so the number of players provided has not yet reached a breakthrough, but the trend is very good. The wealth creation effect of Canaan game, the unique identity and status of players have formed a huge appeal in these areas, if it can be negotiated
Lowering the import tariffs on game equipment and lowering the entry threshold for games will surely set off a craze in the local area that is no less than domestic..."
"The manufacturing department stated that with the current production scale of the special precision manufacturing factory, once the lottery for game qualifications starts in 6 tests, the warehousing and supply of no less than 5 million game helmets will be satisfied within 3 working days...Currently 12
Special Precision Manufacturing Engineering has trained 204
77 skilled technical workers have provided 2,098 special types of talents for multiple scientific research institutes. There are now more than 50,000 junior skilled workers being trained in various production positions...but the infinite supply is a problem.
The reserves will be exhausted within two weeks."
"..."
"Overall, the company's operating conditions are good, cash flow is abundant, employees from top to bottom are full of energy, morale is high, and the atmosphere in the company is vigorous and uplifting. We are proud of the company, take the company as our home, and lead the world in the Yuan Universe
Being a member of the Technology Group makes even the lowest level employees proud!"
"...Mr. Yu, Mr. Yu?"
"Ah? Tell me, I'm listening."
The executives in the conference room looked at each other, and one of them coughed and said, "Very good, very good. The company and the board of directors see everyone's hard work and achievements. I hope everyone will continue to work hard and fight the tough battle of the 6th test...
Let’s adjourn the meeting like this, everyone above A3 will stay.”
Yu Qingdong was noncommittal. More than half of the people in the large conference room got up and left, leaving only a dozen or so people. The atmosphere was different from before.
There was silence for 5 minutes.
"Lao Yu, don't be stunned, you can tell me what to do!"
The executive just urged.
Yu Qingdong leaned back in his chair tiredly and said feebly, "Whatever you say, I'm just letting fate happen."
"Aren't we going to do nothing?" an A2-level executive shouted anxiously.
Yu Qingdong raised his eyelids and glanced at him. Is this the one sent by the 'mother-in-law'? She usually calls herself 'Mama Rong' and doesn't even take him seriously, but now she is worried about Chang Gong's family.
Already?
"Aren't the Americans finished arguing yet?"
"Your news is delayed, and an alliance has been formed."
"how?"
"Overseas operating rights, source code, development control rights... a lot of the same."
"Give them all"
"Haha, that's easy to say. What if they want everything except China?"
"What?"
"You're so greedy, you're not afraid of dying?"
"She's got a good teeth. She's holding on to our pigtails, so she doesn't want to ask for a price."
"It's time to bargain."
"There's no need to talk, it's like an ultimatum."
"..."
"This is absolutely impossible to agree to."
"Look, I'm coming back now, that's why I say I'll leave it to fate."
"What can we do? If it is announced, we... we can't..."
"Maybe we will have to close down shop, and then we will face denunciation from the whole world, and the public opinion environment, tsk tsk... maybe we will become a scapegoat."
"Ahem..."
"Mr. Yu, Mr. Yu?"
"Ah!?" Yu Qingdong just woke up from a dream. Seeing everyone staring at him, he said confusedly: "Is the meeting over?"
The previous executive sighed and said helplessly: "Let's adjourn the meeting. I've been...be smarter these past few days."
Everyone dispersed worriedly, and after a while, only Yu Qingdong was left in the conference room. Secretary Xiao Wang came in and reminded him that there was an important foreign affairs event at two o'clock in the afternoon, which made him temporarily come out of his confusion and depression.
——Being helpless!
This is his most intuitive feeling in recent days.
Watching bad news coming one after another, but unable to do anything, unable to exert any energy, could only passively wait for the verdict that would determine the fate of him and the company. The feeling was... like torture.
It’s okay if you haven’t had it before. Once you have tasted the taste of power, giving it up is undoubtedly a kind of suffering.
Naturally, he is not willing to give in, but he can't do anything. He used to be able to "take advantage of foreign countries to take advantage of his own self-respect", but this trick is not easy to do now.
In the office, No. 0 still didn't reply to his message, and Yu Qingdong was already desperate.
Forget it, that's it.
As far as he knew, after the Americans and Americans reached an agreement, the situation was as good as it could be, and their request was absolutely impossible to agree to. The Americans turned over the table and violently attacked Canaan based on the evidence they had and the so-called truth.
It became a done deal.
Once the scam of Canaan Games is exposed, it will surely trigger a tsunami of international public opinion. Canaan Company and Yu Qingdong are the number one "traitors", and Canaan Games will also become "a human experiment with ulterior motives by aliens".
Or 'prelude and attempt to invade Earth'.
There are already hints that he is prepared to deal with this situation.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but he already feels that his every move is under some kind of surveillance. He is also very sensible. He has no plans to go abroad or even travel by plane in the near future. He believes that once he reveals the slightest bit,
If he crosses the line, the seemingly calm water will be broken, which is undoubtedly extremely detrimental to him.
I have been absentmindedly processing the formulas all morning. On the surface, the preparations for the 6th test are on track and the situation is excellent. Although there are various discordant voices, under the control of intentional or unintentional measures, no trend has formed.
When he was about to get off work, he hurriedly read a copy of the various "concerns" expressed by the educational community about the Canaan game's "corruption of students' minds" and its impact on the century-old education plan. He yawned boredly, signed it casually, and sent it to the public relations department.
get off work!
He stood up and stretched. He had some time to go home recently. The yellow-faced woman at home looked much better, but she couldn't keep clean. Those who asked for information asked for the 6th test qualification. This unit, that classmate, this relative
, that leader... It seems that these people have almost forgotten about that spy encounter.
Also, was it the 3rd test or the 4th test at that time? Looking back, it seems like a long time passed, but in fact it was less than a year.
Sitting on the luxurious and low-key Land Cruiser, Yu Qingdong saw a team of cloud players who had come from the Southern Province to make a pilgrimage. What was rare was that there were actually a few players from South America mixed in the team, and they seemed to belong to the same family.
Seeing them being led carefreely into the headquarters building by beautiful staff, Yu Qingdong sighed with envy.
It would be better if I were just an ordinary player.
"Why did you come back at noon?"
The wife took his briefcase strangely and handed it to the attentive young son.
This kid...
"Dad, please help me find a few places for this 6th test. There is no need to draw lots."
Yu Qingdong lay relaxed on the sofa, enjoying his wife's gentle service. He waved slightly to the secretary and security captain at the door, with a lazy demeanor of a big shot, "Who is asking for your help this time?"
"Hey, friend... I really can't shirk it."
"You bought the quota I got for you last time. It's not good for who to buy it for. You just bought it for...you almost got yourself in. Did you forget that your uncle is still locked up?"
"This time it's true, I promise!"
"You are also a player. I haven't seen you achieve anything good. You can't do anything. If you try some crooked ways, I will be pissed to death by you sooner or later."
"You're not willing to give me some inside information..."
"Why, you still blame me?"
"No, no, I only want 5 places. We are really friends. I kept failing in the lottery, so you asked me to do it."
"It's okay if you give it away, but if you make a profit..."
"Absolutely not, absolutely not!", the youngest son was overjoyed. He didn't expect his father, who was always shy to talk, to be so happy. He hurriedly patted his chest and agreed, only swearing.
"Friend? Male or female?", the wife's focus was in another direction, "I'm telling you Yu Qing, if you do the same as last time...",
The younger son quickly interrupted: "Both men and women are OK, Mom, you are so verbose!"
With his wife and children nagging around him, Yu Qingdong would have been annoyed before, but now he just closed his eyes and listened lazily.
His wife used a hot towel to apply on his face, feeling that the pores on his skin were open, all releasing fatigue, stress, and frustration. He groaned in comfort, and sleepiness came over him like a tide, quickly drowning him.
While wandering among the lakes, Hao Zuo had a dream. In his dream, he was sitting on a high throne, receiving dignitaries from various countries. Suddenly, a group of players broke in and fought with his guards.
The war was very stalemate, and the players could not be killed in an endless stream. Although our side was strong, they were being worn down bit by bit by the players.
At the critical moment, under the protection of his loyal security captain, he escaped into the aerospace fighter parked on the roof of the building and flew towards the huge interstellar battleship that had been hanging over the city.
This battleship is just like the one promised in science fiction on Independence Day. It is shaped like a huge disk, covering the entire city. Countless aerial fighters came to protect it, and players also appeared in the sky.
They rode griffins, giant dragons and various fantasy flying mounts, and fought with aerial fighters...
"Kill, that is the boss behind Umbrella Canaan Company!"
"Shit, he's just a little monster. I don't even know who the final BOSS is!"
"Kill him first to get plot points!"
"Come on!"
"They are all technological arms, look at my 'Psychic Storm'"
"..."
Yu Qingdong panicked. The aerial fighter planes fell like raindrops. The huge interstellar battleship did not make any rescue action. It seemed that a huge shadow shrouded the fighter plane, and a pair of cold eyes stared at him coldly.
Look carefully, the owner of these eyes is clearly himself!
"ah!"
"What's wrong, Lao Yu, are you having a nightmare?"
Yu Qingdong broke out in a cold sweat. He opened his eyes and was still in the living room at home. Someone came vaguely outside the door. His youngest son was talking to him with a playful smile.
"Who's coming?"
Yu Qingdong took the towel handed by his wife and wiped his face.
The wife shook her head and pointed to the ceiling.
...There should be news.
negotiation!
It doesn't matter if it's life or death, otherwise it would be unbearable to be like this.
Yu Qingdong went out, shook hands with two unknown men in Chinese tunic suits, sent away his young son, who had no eyesight, and took them to the study.
"Number Zero has come into contact with the Americans."
Yu Qingdong was shocked after hearing this and took the dossier handed over to him.
"...This information has cost us a lot!" The other man in Mao suit looked solemn and his eyes were bloodshot.
Yu Qingdong said: "I have contacted No. 0, but..."
"We know!" the first man in Chinese tunic said as he took out something like a laptop from the lockbox, but much thicker. "There will be a very important meeting in 5 minutes."
Yu Qingdong nodded, and looking at the two Mao Zedong suits, he began to assume that small instruments such as satellite receivers were arranged in the study.
…
Early the next morning, Yu Qingdong changed his usual tiredness and rushed to the company in full swing. The first thing he did was to inform the management of B1 level and above to have a meeting in the conference center on the 14th floor.
At the beginning of the conference, he ordered that the work related to the 6-test officially move from preparation to implementation stage, both at home and abroad. The domestic game quota is tentatively set at 2.5 million, and this quota does not take into account the number of future players.
A group of executives who knew the inside story were surprised. Before they could ask, Yu Qingdong said in a nonchalant way that the 6th test was the beginning of the company's true internationalization. The board of directors had already made a major move and decided to transfer the operation, management and management of Canaan Games.
Certain development rights are authorized to regional agents who have reached cooperation intentions.
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone in the room was shocked.
