Chapter 20: The Greatest Enemy is the Japanese People

  The leak incident was temporarily put aside, and Zhao Yongping followed Yang Yun all the way from the beginning of writing the first line of code. Zhao Yongping kept a close eye on it to ensure that the source code of Tank Battle could not be stolen by others.

  Tank Battle is a static screen, single-screen map where the player controls a tank defending their base at the bottom of the screen from enemy tanks appearing at the top.

  The first version of the program only had basic tank direction control and firepower control, could eliminate enemy troops, and could also be blown up by the enemy.

  In the second edition, Yang Yun added a reward refresh mechanism. In each level, three red enemy tanks will appear. After being destroyed, a treasure will randomly refresh on the screen: Iron Shovel (temporarily changes the outer shell of the base into steel plate), Clock (enemies cannot move), and Star (enhances firepower, upgrades one's tank, making it larger).

  In the third version, Yang Yun added three props: hand grenade, reward life and invincibility. He also added a dual strike function, allowing enemy and friendly tank shells to cancel each other out. When a tank is mistakenly injured by its own side, it will become immobile.

  In the fourth edition, Yang Yun added a map editor, allowing players to edit their own map levels, making it more playable.

  Within two days, Zhao Yongping witnessed Yang Yun's R&D team perfecting the game program bit by bit. He saw the entire process of this classic game from scratch to completion and finally believed that Yang Yun indeed had the ability to develop a classic game.

  During this time, the individual map editor was helped by a little girl named Su Xiuyun to design, Zhang Guotai and Zhu Shiqiang provided Yang Yun with many suggestions on program code and algorithms, Ma Liang provided multiple fixed level maps Code editing, took over the most tedious basic code task.

  It can be said that the entire team completed this game, while others completed the skeleton of the game, and Yang Yun infused the soul.

  During the trial, Yang Yun controlled Pyer1's yellow tank, hiding under a steel plate building, swinging left and right, firmly sealing off the enemy tanks in the middle and left roads, leaving only one road on the right for Ma Liang. As long as he dared to come up and grab the tank, Yang Yun would give him a shot, knocking Ma Liang dizzy on the spot.

  "Director Yang! Leave a few for me... This isn't enough to fight with..." Ma Liang's head hurt.

  Yang Yun smiled and said: "Alright, later on this level's code, you go and double the enemy tank refresh time and batch."

  Zhao Yongping and others stood behind him, sighing: "Yang Kechang, no need to say, this game will definitely sell well."

  Su Xiuyun muttered in a low voice: "Exactly! Those who suspect that Yang Ke has leaked secrets are really blind. If it were true that Yang Ke had leaked secrets, would he still have taken out the tank battle?"

  Zhao Yongping looked embarrassed, he himself had suspected Yang Yun before, but now, he couldn't say anything either.

  It's okay, Yang Yun handed the controller to Su Xiuyun, letting these two young people play, then made a wink, and called Zhao Yongping to one side, saying in a low voice: "Director Zhao, the source code of Tank Battle is all in your hands, hurry up and apply for the patent, don't let others steal it again."

  Zhao Yongping sighed: "Yang Kechang, I've been troubling you for these few days."

  Yang Yun waved his hand: "I'm fine. Zhang Gong and Zhu Gong have new ideas on program encryption, you should also pay attention to it, otherwise Shen Gong's kind of expert can easily reverse engineer and crack it. Of course, I'm not suspecting or accusing Shen Gong, I'm just saying that our card's encryption is far from enough, it's very easy for other manufacturers to crack."

  Zhao Yongping was overwhelmed with emotion, holding Yang Yun's hand and saying: "Thank you, Director Yang! With this, our Little Overlord now has four games, and it won't be a problem to make a four-in-one game. You've made another great contribution!"

  Yang Yun smiled faintly: "The tank battle was just right for cultivating Zhang Gong's new team, and in fact, their skills are still quite good, worthy of giving them more responsibility. Taking this opportunity, Director Zhao, I am applying to resign."

  "What!" Zhao Yongping was stunned, the founding elders were just the three of them, Aleksey had left, Yang Yun had also left, and in the end only he, Zhao Yongping, was left alone, this was a huge blow!

  Zhao Yongping was anxious: "Yang Yun, why do you want to resign? Is it because Zhang and others suspect you? Or is Shen Gong not good to you? Or have you been treated unfairly?"

  Zhao Yongping's voice was a bit loud, and several people who were playing tank battles nearby came over to ask about the specific reason.

  Yang Yun shook his head: "No, no one has put pressure on me. I just feel tired and want to go out and recharge. The clear will be self-clear, and I don't need to explain anything. How others see me, I don't care. To tell the truth, when writing these programs, I found many shortcomings in myself, especially my programming skills are too shallow. The algorithm of Tetris, the algorithm of eating beans, and the custom programming and thread principle of Tank Battle, all were done by Aleksey, Zhang Gong and Zhu Gong. My ability is really limited. If I stay here as a technical director, I will feel embarrassed."

  Zhang Guotai hastily said: "Director Yang! You can't say that, programming languages are not something anyone is born knowing, we've just read a few more books over the past two years."

  Zhu Shi Qiang also said: "Yang Ke Chang, Old Zhang is right, compared to him, we are even more ashamed. After doing programming for a few years, we can't even do assembly encryption perfectly. You have a quick mind and think clearly, leading us is more than enough!"

  Ma Liang was even more anxious, he was only one year younger than Yang Yun, and didn't take him as a leader at all: "Brother Yang, in this world, if you're not envied by others, you're mediocre. Have you been irritated by that bastard Shen Jun? Don't worry, I'll go beat him up, he's still trying to make a comeback in the electronics industry of Chongshan City!"

  Su Xiuyun said softly: "Yang Kechang, if you leave, it won't be much fun for us to do it."

  "That's right! Director Yang Ke, we all believe in you, you are innocent!"

  "Director Yang, don't go, okay?"

  Although we haven't been together for a long time, we have already developed very deep feelings. Especially with the game "Tank Battle", it was a joint effort and everyone worked hard to complete it from scratch to its perfect launch. Everyone has a sense of belonging to Xiaobawang Company and is enjoying the thrill of success. Of course, no one wants Yang Yun to leave.

  Especially at this subtle moment, the achievement is done, but the name has not been obtained. The first thought that comes to everyone's mind is: Is it possible that someone upstairs wants to pluck the peach?

  Yang Yun's heart was warm and fuzzy as she listened to everyone's advice, and in the end, she finally made up her mind.

  He can't stay, now is not the time to leave, it will be even harder in the future: "Everyone, don't get excited. As the saying goes, a strong army has flowing soldiers, Xiaobao Wang is a growing company, personnel come and go very normally, I'm not unwilling to grow together with Xiaobao Wang, but I really feel overwhelmed. I want to return to Beijing for further study, if there's an opportunity, I will go to Japan to learn from their technology. Director Zhao, I give you a piece of advice, Xiaobao Wang's biggest competitor is not Xiaotiancai, Jintian, or Kote, nor any Chinese game console company, the greatest enemy is the Japanese!"

  Zhao Yongping sighed: "I remember."

  Although it's not clear what Yang Yun is really thinking, since he has made up his mind to leave, everyone can't persuade him anymore and can only sigh with emotion. Ma Liang angrily pounds the table with his fist, Su Xiuyun sheds tears reluctantly, while Zhao Yongping's face turns iron-blue, lost in thought.

  Nothing was taken away, and Yang Yun left Xiaobawang Company just like that.

  It was still that simple luggage, came simply three months ago, left simply three months later. Yang Yun was very carefree, but he gained a lot.

  To be fair, the high-level executives of Little King Company framed him for leaking secrets. Anyone would get angry if they were in his shoes, but Yang Yun is not someone who doesn't know what's going on. After weighing the situation, he didn't argue reasonably and didn't do anything drastic like sacrificing himself to destroy the net.

  Firstly, it was Taito that took him in during his most difficult times and gave him the platform to meet Alexey and create Tetris, as well as obtain the patent. Without Taito, he might have been forced by life to run to some small factory to survive.

  Secondly, he is really not interested in the struggle for power. Even if Shen Jun is exposed, what can he do? His vision is focused on the whole world, and internal struggles within Xiaobawang Company are not his style. He had enough of office politics before his rebirth, so why waste precious time on personnel struggles now?

  So, to repay the kindness of his host, he left behind four practice works. These four games, the patent for Snake is unknown who owns it overseas, Tetris belongs to him, Eat Bean is a small game that doesn't make sense, and Tank Battle is the wealth he left for his subordinates.

  As for personal vendetta against Shen Jun, a gentleman takes revenge ten years later is not too late. When Yang Yun's wings are full, as long as Shen Jun is still in the domestic gaming circle, Yang Yun will make him spit out a hundred times more than today!

  Yang Yun walked away with a clear conscience and an untroubled heart.

  Lost some, gained not less, Yang Yun got Zhao Yongping's friendship, got the respect of all colleagues except Shen Jun, got Aleksey, a Soviet expert, most importantly, he got the patent right of Russian block, got the pass to enter the game industry, and also got freedom itself.

  Any achievements made within a state-owned enterprise are those of the collective, and if all goes as expected, the rights to these four games will belong to Ryeo Group once they are patented domestically, while he personally will only have personal honors and perhaps receive some bonus.

  So, this freedom is really too precious, next, it's his chance to make a big move, he will rely on the patent documents of Tetris, and create a huge sensation in the global game market!
