Chapter 30: Taiwan's Little Genius Company

  At the same time, in Beijing, at the headquarters of Longteng Entertainment Games Company in Zhongguancun, all employees were waiting in the R&D room, listening to Yang Yun's instructions.

  "Inoue, your game code framework is well-built, but in terms of specific details, I'll discuss with you later and try to dig out the most core code package of Super Mario. Also, I have some new ideas."

  "Near East and Guo Qiang, you two not only need to have solid hardware, but also versatile software. Let's wait a bit and then we'll work together to refine the architecture of horizontal scrolling games, and you can participate too."

  "Matsumoto and Katsumi, the next project is temporarily undecided. You can study Super Mario's breakdown and thoroughly understand their image processing methods. Also, I had Mr. Nagano bring many comic books from Japan. When you have time, recharge your batteries with a focus on technical reserves."

  "Less cloud, you've been working hard for this period of time, busy with sales and shipping, and also helping me find those talents, I'll give you a big red envelope!"

  Fang Huimin was unhappy: "Director Yang! Are you only thinking of giving Shaoyun red envelopes? Although we haven't been running outside, we've done a lot for the company!"

  "Exactly! Exactly!"

  "Those who see it will have a share!"

  Someone took the lead and the rest followed suit.

  Yang Yun burst out laughing: "Great, great, everyone gets a red envelope! I want to thank everyone for their hard work over the past month! Our first project - Circus Game has been successfully developed and we have signed a cooperation agreement with Chiyang Electronics Factory, achieving the opening of Longteng Entertainment Game Company. This is inseparable from everyone's efforts, it's all your credit! Thank you everyone, thank you!"

  Chuangyu Electronics Factory has started mass production of the Chuangyu 4-in-1 game card, which includes four games: one is an original creation, and the other three are from Nintendo, cracked by Inoue Osamu, Fang Jindong, and a master from Chuangyu Electronics Factory within a week, perfectly ported, and finally encrypted by Fang Jindong on the finished game card motherboard.

  Because the Red Sun Four-in-One game card has Longteng Company's supervision, it perfectly matches all FC consoles in the Chinese mainland market except for Nintendo and Sega, so the market prospects are very good, with huge demand. After Jiang Yang's statistics, the first batch of production plans was arranged at 50,000 boxes, with each box giving a share to Longteng Entertainment Game Company of 8 yuan, which immediately put a profit of 400,000 in his pocket.

  So Yang Yun initiated the red envelope, and didn't feel any pain at all. As long as Chiyang Electronics Factory continued to produce and Jiangyang continued to sell, the money would keep flowing in endlessly.

  The circus was just a wedge, a touchstone. The R&D department worked together with one heart and soul, and Yang Yun also took the stage in person. From nothing to something, from zero to one, not only did they thoroughly understand the program code of single paintings, but they also successfully completed the initial development of horizontal scroll games.

  Although the game is simple, with only one jumping action, it means that Longteng Company has broken through the technical threshold of horizontal scrolling, and in the future, pouring other content into it will be a way of changing the soup without changing the medicine.

  "After arranging these things, Yang Yun looked at Fang Jindong and said seriously: 'The five employees who were recruited in the past few days, you and Hui Min are responsible for training and settling them. Let them integrate into the team as soon as possible. It's hard on you two.'"

  Fang Jindong didn't react much, but Fang Huimin was startled: "Chairman Yang, you don't even exchange pleasantries with these people?"

  Yang Yun waved his hand: "I don't have time to see them, I'm busy! The meeting is dismissed now. Those few people I called out earlier will stay behind to discuss the details, and everyone else can go do their own thing!"

  After a night of intense discussion, Yang Yun finally put his mind at ease. The next morning, he left the company with Inoue Takeo and Matsumoto Yoshino, heading to Sega China.

  The first major test for Longteng Entertainment Game Company is finally coming!

  Can the circus game pass through Sega's production standard specification in one move?

  ……

  ……

  The sky is pouring with rain, a common thunderstorm weather in summer days.

  A taxi stopped at the entrance of the building where Sega China was located, the door opened and several people rushed out in a hurry, not even bothering to open an umbrella, running quickly towards the rain shelter wall of the building, it turned out to be Yang Yun and two Japanese subordinates.

  Three people rushed towards the stairs, Yang Yun holding a floppy disk in his arms and carrying a bag of materials, fearing that the heavy rain would get everything wet.

  A dark figure suddenly appeared. Yang Yun didn't have time to dodge and collided with someone, who let out a dull hum and sat down on the ground with a thud.

  "Ah yoh! Have I grown eyes? Ran into someone!"

  "Sorry! Sorry!"

  Scolded by someone right to his face, Yang Yun was also furious in his heart, but indeed he had bumped into the person. It was raining heavily outside and he ran a bit too fast, the weather was gloomy, at the corner of the stairs he failed to brake in time, bumping into the other person who fell over, and he himself wasn't much better off either, his nose throbbing with pain.

  "What's wrong with you? Do your eyes grow on your butt?" The one who was hit was a young guy, but his words were too unpleasant and his tone was too aggressive.

  The young man looked down and saw that a black umbrella had been crushed, he was so angry that his seven orifices were smoking, and he grabbed Yang Yun's collar, ready to hit him.

  Even a clay figure has three points of earthly nature. Although it was Yang Yun who didn't get it right, having been scolded and beaten one after another, this time everyone couldn't take it anymore.

  "Ah, damn it!" Inoue Gen'yu and Matsumoto Yoshino couldn't bear to watch any longer. They rushed over to help. If their own boss was getting beaten up, they would be the ones following behind watching the commotion - how could they expect a good outcome for themselves?

  Yang Yun raised his hand and blocked the young man's arm, with a fiery tone in his voice, saying: "Speak properly, don't use force!"

  The young man was taken aback when he heard the two speaking Japanese: "Japanese? Are you employees of Sega?"

  Yang Yun thought he was someone from Sega Corporation, held back his breath and tried hard to restrain himself: "No, we are here for the evaluation of Sega."

  The young man's eyes rolled around: "So you're a domestic game development company?"

  Yang Yun nodded: "Right, Longteng Entertainment Game Company, I don't know who you are, sir..."

  "It's Long Teng..."

  The young man sneered, picked up the crushed black umbrella and threw down a sentence: "You think you can pass the assessment with this attitude? Hmph, get out of my way!"

  Beyond comprehension!

  As he looked out, a black sedan stopped not far from the building. It was actually one of the first Santana cars in the country, with only 20,000 vehicles nationwide. Yang Yun had hardly seen a few in Beijing, and had only seen Jiang Yang drive this car before.

  In this day and age, anyone who can afford a Santana is a big shot!

  This stinky temper little guy held a broken umbrella to welcome him, took out a new umbrella from the front car door, then opened the back door and held an umbrella with his head down, and picked up a middle-aged man.

  Yang Yun was slightly surprised and didn't pay much attention to it. He straightened his clothes and went upstairs to the Shijia company by himself.

  They were greeted by Nagano's assistant, who informed them that Nagano was in a meeting.

  Three people sat in the rest area waiting, and heard that familiar loud voice come over: "Director Xiao, this way please!"

  The three people from Santana also came up, walking familiarly towards the rest area. As they passed by Yang Yun's side, the middle-aged man who was leading them stopped and looked him up and down before asking: "Are you Yang Yun of Longteng Entertainment Game Company?"

  Yang Yun was stunned, I'm not that famous yet, and Long Teng hasn't caused a big stir in the industry either, so why does everyone ask as soon as they see me? Who is this Xiao Zong anyway?

  He stood up and said: "I am Yang Yun, may I ask who you are?"

  Middle-aged man did not answer back and asked: "How many games has your company developed in total?"

  Yang Yun replied: "For now, there's just this one model, but..."

  The middle-aged man interrupted him, his eyes full of disdain: "Only one? Oh, it seems that today is to give a review to that thing called... what was it called?"

  Impulsive young people behind him snickered: "Circus!"

  "Right! You think you can just come over and try your luck? Ugh, I'm telling you, you'd better go back now before Sega blows you away and makes a fool of yourselves!" Xiao Zong laughed triumphantly.

  Is this person sick? Yang Yun had never seen anyone like that before, coming straight up and scolding horizontally. Are you a Sega judge? Can't pass if it's your word? What's wrong with one game, can't even come to deliver the test?

  "Didn't expect Xiao to still be so stubborn: 'How, still not convinced? You think by clinging to the thigh of Chiyang Electronics Factory you can rest easy, but Chiyang Electronics Factory is such a rundown factory, and they're actually counting on you to revive it? What a joke!'"

  Yang Yun couldn't hold it in anymore, rolled her eyes: "What are you? Did Red Sun Electronics provoke you? Is Sega your company? Who do you think you are to decide who can pass or not? With an attitude like that, does your mom know?"

  Xiao Zong burst out laughing: "Ji Yang Electronics Factory is my subordinate, Sega may not be mine, but it also has to give Xiao Dehua three points of face! Young man, your road ahead is still long, abandon the dark and follow the light early on, maybe I'll even leave a meal for your Longteng Company, haha!"

  With that said, he turned and left.

  Yang Yun's heart was burning with anger, and he turned his head to say to Inoue Takeo: "Go ask Yoneda's assistant what these people are up to!"

  In a little while, Inoue Osamu returned and said, "They are Taiwan's Little Genius."

  Yang Yun suddenly realized: "I said why it sounds like a Taiwanese accent! It turns out we're from the same industry!"

  What kind of people are they, one more arrogant than the other? They even advise me to turn over a new leaf, but don't they dare to take a piss and look in the mirror to see what kind of person they themselves are!

  Taiwan's little genius, huh? After Long Teng grows up, the first one to be eliminated will be you! The grievances I suffered in Xiaobawang were all caused by your little geniuses' mischief!

  Yang Yun was furious, and the little genius wasn't even an original software company. The learning card probably also plagiarized from others. Later, a four-in-one cartridge came out, copying part of Nintendo and part of Little Emperor. Whatever card sells well, he would copy whoever's. Does this kind of company have the face to point fingers at others?

  Is Little Genius also here to deliver game reviews today? Yang Yun smiled gloomily and walked away.
