Chapter 566: Will the future work out?

A few hours later,

the two sisters finally returned to Pengcheng.

However, they did not go home directly. They

first went to a pet fostering place and brought back the increasingly fat ragdoll cat at home...

After the Chinese New Year,

the ragdoll cat was indeed fatter.

When Lin Yao picked it up, she was shocked because it was too heavy...

And the cat was still restless. After being picked up, it was still arching in her arms, stretching out its claws to probe outside, as if it wanted to go back to its original place and didn't want to leave...

"Why is it fat again!? Is the food here so good!?"

Lin Yao hugged the cat hard and was shocked.

This cat must be at least 20 kilograms, right?

"Before the Chinese New Year, I asked the staff to feed it more food."

Lin Xi reached out to take the cat and felt the same sinking: "Now it seems that the staff fed it too much..."

The gray and white ragdoll cat with soft fur came to Lin Xi's arms.

It immediately settled down.

"It's okay to feed too much, then it really eats."

Lin Yao opened the car door and let Lin Xi get in first, and she followed closely behind, and told the driver to drive home.

"It must really eat. It's like this at home, it must be more indulgent outside..."

Lin Xi held the cat, weighed it gently, and smiled and put it on her thigh.

She also felt that the cat was too heavy now.

The ragdoll cat seemed to know that it was going home, and it lay on Lin Xi's thigh like a resigned person and began to take a nap.

Lin Yao glanced at the chubby ragdoll cat, and then couldn't help but reach out and gently flicked its little head.

The ragdoll cat raised its head with a gurgling sound, and immediately became restless again.

It stood up directly, stepped on Lin Xi's plump and tight thighs, changed direction, turned its butt towards Lin Yao, and continued to lie down and take a nap.

"..."

Lin Yao was stunned, and then angry.

She stretched out her hand and rubbed the cat wildly, and questioned: "Fuck... Why is this so? It's fine that it struggles when I hold it, and you said you feed it more, I admit it.

But why does it hate me when I touch it!? I obviously fed it too! And I often open cans for it!"

"..."

Lin Xi couldn't help laughing, and replied: "Maybe, it's because it thinks that you and it are of the same kind... Well, like repels like."

"Same kind!? You said I am of the same kind as such a thing."

Lin Yao was immediately furious, picked up the cat, and then held it to her face, and looked at Lin Xi with it: "Do you think we are of the same kind?"

The cat was held in the air, with a droopy face and purring.

Lin Yao also slumped her face, and her chest rose and fell slightly.

"To various degrees."

Seeing this scene, Lin Xi finally couldn't help but laughed softly.

"...Then you will spend your whole life with the cat."

Lin Yao became even angrier, and gently threw the cat back onto Lin Xi's thighs, turned around and began to rub Lin Xi's soft face angrily.

Lin Xi did not struggle, but looked at his sister half lying on him to avenge him, and felt a little funny.

Isn't this similar?

...

A night of silence.

The next day.

Linmu Studio officially started work.

Lin Yao also stepped into the company on time.

Then, as soon as she pushed open the door of her office.

Lin Yao saw that Mu Wanqing was watering the green plants inside.

"Happy New Year."

Mu Wanqing heard the sound of the door opening and immediately knew that it was Lin Yao who came.

Because most people would not go directly into Lin Yao's office without knocking.

Except for Zhu Nianqiao.

But Zhu Nianqiao is still saying Happy New Year to the staff of the host product department and receiving red envelopes...

So, Mu Wanqing immediately put down the small shower, turned around, and looked at Lin Yao, whom she hadn't seen for half a month.

She was very restrained.

Whether it was a smile or a move.

But even from a distance, one could feel her mood at the moment...

"Happy New Year."

Lin Yao smiled at Mu Wanqing when she saw her, then thought for a moment and suddenly asked, "Miss Mu, let me ask you a question, do you think I look like a cat?"

"...???"

Mu Wanqing didn't expect it.

The two hadn't seen each other for half a month.

The first sentence Lin Yao said was this... It was a bit ridiculous.

Lin Yao was still a little bothered by what happened yesterday.

People are like this.

They always worry about inexplicable things...

"Not like."

Mu Wanqing was stunned for a long time, and finally came back to her senses, shook her head gently, and gave her own answer.

"Isn't it."

Lin Yao immediately breathed a sigh of relief, smiled brightly again with satisfaction, and walked towards Mu Wanqing.

But the next second.

"But the habits are indeed a bit similar." Mu Wanqing added.

The smile on Lin Yao's face froze, and then she turned around and went to the seat instead of meeting Mu Wanqing...

Seeing her expression, Mu Wanqing probably knew what happened.

She held back her smile and took the initiative to greet Lin Yao. Then she stretched out her hands through her armpits and gently embraced her, saying gently: "This is good, and cute... Let's not talk about this, Happy New Year. And, we finally meet again..."

After that,

she rubbed Lin Yao's neck with nostalgia.

At this moment,

she was quite like a pet...

"You are so cruel."

Lin Yao sighed and gave up.

She tilted her head a little ticklishly, then hugged Mu Wanqing's waist with her backhand, picked her up, and changed the subject: "Happy New Year! Let me see if you have gained weight during the New Year!"

Mu Wanqing: "..."

...

In the office.

After a brief reminiscence, the two

walked out and began to distribute red envelopes to the staff of each department. After all,

it was the first year of moving to the new headquarters, and during the Spring Festival, the sense of ceremony was still necessary.

However, the number of employees in Linmu Studio was too large now.

Although it was said to be distributing red envelopes, Lin Yao only gave the red envelopes to the department leaders and took the time to distribute them.

Others could only ask the department heads to do it for them.

As for standing by the door early in the morning to hand out red envelopes... forget it, Lin Yao didn't make any preparations.

However.

Although the red envelopes were not handed out by Lin Yao herself, it seemed that the staff were still very happy.

This year, there are still not many staff members who have asked for leave in Linmu Studio. After all, the holiday time is very long, and the staff on duty during the Chinese New Year are still there.

So it's quite lively.

The whole morning.

The company is in a festive atmosphere.

However.

After lunch time,

everyone got back to work.

Now Linmu Studio is huge in size, and the work has been backlogged for half a month. You can imagine how much work needs to be dealt with.

Every department is very busy.

At this moment, the only one who can be considered free is probably the Linmu E-sports Branch.

After all, the E-sports Festival has just ended.

But having said that.

On his first day at work, Nie Hui was called to the headquarters of Linmu Studio... Actually, it can't be considered free.

"Press conference?"

In the conference room.

Nie Hui sat at the conference table, looking at Lin Yao dragging the whiteboard, and was slightly startled.

This is not an area he is familiar with!

Why should he participate himself?

"Yes."

Lin Yao nodded, and then explained: "When I returned to Pengcheng yesterday, I talked to my sister. They definitely don't have the corresponding experience in this area. As for Youmei, their experience is too old and useless.

So I thought about it carefully and decided that our Linmu Studio should host it."

"For a mobile phone launch conference, shouldn't we just announce the mobile phone directly?"

On the other side.

Bao Liangzhe from the hardware development department asked in surprise.

"Then is our Switch released directly?" Lin Yao asked back.

"Uh..." Bao Liangzhe scratched his head.

He is a pure technician, and this is indeed not his area of ​​expertise.

"It is definitely not okay to announce it directly. A good mobile phone launch conference can bring many benefits, such as creating a sensation in advance and attracting public attention. If you can systematically introduce the appearance parameters and configuration of the mobile phone, it can also let consumers know more about the new product. The most important thing is - this thing can also expand the popularity of the product and open up the market better."

Lin Yao began to explain the benefits of holding a press conference to several staff members present.

Then, she suddenly changed the subject and complained: "In my opinion, the current mobile phone conferences in our country are all unsatisfactory... Most of them just mechanically read out the parameters, and then let two concierges hold the mobile phones... It's like a pyramid scheme scene, very embarrassing.

Even the best products will become boring if they are treated like this. Of course, we can't imitate them. Not only will we not imitate them, but we will also change this situation! Tell all colleagues! How to hold a press conference!"

The few people at the conference table were silent.

In addition to not understanding.

It's also because they trust Lin Yao very much.

Linmu Studio has released hardware before.

The Switch press conference was led by her.

The effect is really great.

"So, you must first recognize one thing."

Lin Yao picked up the marker under the whiteboard, pulled out the pen cap, and wrote on the whiteboard while explaining: "That is, our mobile phone press conference is very different! Secondly... everyone present, except Miss Mu and Nie Hui, must show up."

"Huh?"

As soon as Lin Yao said this.

First.

Li Qi, who developed the operating system for mobile phones in Kaishan Research Laboratory, couldn't help but make a puzzled sound.

Others were not much better.

Even Zhong Xiu, who was in charge of the mobile version of Kaihei, was quite surprised, not to mention Kang Yi, the head of the mobile game department who had just graduated from college.

"I told you it's different, don't be so surprised."

Lin Yao turned around and said with a smile: "I think this is necessary. For example, Li Qi, I know that the industry generally thinks that there is no need to explain the operating system, because everyone is in the Jiaming Alliance. Some small differences will be known by users after they use it.

But think about it carefully, is it really like this? Not to mention that our operating system is completely different from that of the Jiaming Alliance, even if they are the same, if we can introduce some interesting functions in front of users, can they understand the mobile phone better? And thus become more interested in the mobile phone that they have not yet placed an order to buy?

For example, the beauty function of our system camera, such as skin smoothing, face thinning and eye enlargement, if we can demonstrate it once at the press conference, can it make users with needs instantly excited?"

Li Qi: "..."

He had nothing to say. He

had to admit it.

Lin Yao is right...

"In addition, the same goes for hardware."

Lin Yao looked at Bao Liangzhe from the hardware department: "Think about it, if you can emphasize the screen at the press conference and say that it can display the colors of photos more accurately, and at the same time list the main parameters of the phone and compare it with the current mainstream phones, wouldn't it make users more likely to buy this phone?"

Bao Liangzhe: "..."

"Mobile games and software need even more exposure."

Lin Yao finally looked at Zhong Xiu and Kang Yi: "For this new phone, the only area that overlaps with our expertise is games. Ordinary games have to release promotional videos for exposure. Mobile games are also games, and they are one of the selling points. We can't just release this selling point separately, or let players shout about it after the phone is released, right? We must arouse the players' interest at the press conference."

Kang Yi and Zhong Xiu: "..."

“So, to put it bluntly, the purpose of letting you show up is actually the same, which is to let them introduce the selling points of the mobile phone in detail, so that more users will be interested and choose to buy the mobile phone.”

Lin Yao summarized, then turned around and continued to write and draw on the whiteboard: “And in order to achieve this goal, we first need a good stage, a good story, a beautiful PPT, a good speech, a warm-up event that is eye-catching enough, and... a group of staff who can give full play to their eloquence.”

She wrote a few key words on the whiteboard.

Then he turned back again and circled a few key words: "Among them, good stories, PPT, and speech manuscripts are the responsibility of Miss Mu and me, but I need you to write a report first, write down all the mobile phone content that you think can be used as a selling point, for my reference. The warm-up activities are the responsibility of the marketing department, and the good stage is prepared by Nie Hui and Lin Mu E-sports.

If you don't understand why I do this for the time being, it doesn't matter. You just need to know that you need to practice your eloquence and perform perfectly... I will definitely give you the speech manuscript first. If you feel that you need to change it or want to play freely, you can do so."

Lin Yao finished speaking and tapped the whiteboard lightly.

But to be honest.

At this moment, several senior executives in the audience.

Are all confused.

What the hell?

Good story? PPT? What does this have to do with the mobile phone conference?

In short.

Don't quite understand...

Lin Yao also understands.

But for a moment, she can't explain it.

She plans to explain these things slowly next. Anyway, the conference will not be confirmed for a while, and warm-up also takes time.

If you still don't understand, you will understand after the phone launch.

In the conference room,

the only one who is calm is probably Nie Hui.

Because he is very familiar with the stage he is responsible for.

"How big does the stage for this launch need to be?"

He took the initiative to ask when everyone was confused.

"It doesn't need to be too big, just enough to accommodate the media who are interested."

Lin Yao just wanted to say this, and immediately said: "The launch is not like a competition. It will not last long, so there is no need to trouble users or players to come all the way here. We can invite some interested players, but we will not sell tickets.

Probably... a venue that can accommodate about 500 to 1,000 people will be enough."

Nie Hui nodded gently: "What are the specific requirements for the stage?"

Lin Yao thought about it carefully and replied: "I have an idea, but I haven't written it out systematically yet, but the stage should not need to be changed... The requirements are very simple, just a set of headlights and a super large background screen."

As she spoke, she began to draw a schematic diagram on the whiteboard.

Soon.

A schematic diagram was drawn.

"The main function of this screen is to play PPT and videos. The specifications require... it just needs to be big enough. We will adjust the specific stage effects later."

Lin Yao put away the marker pen, and after finishing speaking, she looked at Nie Hui with an inquiring look.

"I understand." Nie Hui carefully looked at the content on the whiteboard and nodded.

"Then let's get ready first."

Lin Yao clapped her hands lightly, then looked around at everyone: "This time I called you all here, mainly to tell you one thing - our mobile phone launch conference this time is very different from other launch conferences, and this will also become one of our most important activities in the first half of the year. Although I am sorry to say this just after the Chinese New Year, we will be busy next.

The launch conference and carnival will occupy all our energy in the first half of the year, so you should be prepared. Now, let's summarize the highlights of each of your responsibilities for my reference, try to be as detailed as possible, and don't miss any selling points.

Then, I will confirm the process of the launch conference as soon as possible, and then we will meet again to systematically sort out the process and try to have a bottom line in mind.

The above is what I want to say, do you have any questions?"

The others looked at each other.

They could not understand the new launch conference proposed by Lin Yao for the time being.

After hearing what Lin Yao said, he was even more confused.

So at this moment, they really didn't have too many ideas.

"Then let's stop here and summarize the advantages first."

Seeing that they had nothing to say for the time being, Lin Yao directly announced the disbandment: "Once the process is confirmed, we will slowly discuss the details."

The group nodded.

Then they filed out.

Lin Yao stayed until the end and looked at Mu Wanqing: "Miss Mu?"

Mu Wanqing raised her head: "Hmm?"

"When they hand in the selling point report, remember to remind me."

Lin Yao smiled at her: "We'll see you later."

After that.

She waved to Mu Wanqing and prepared to leave.

This meeting was just the beginning.

There were still many things she needed to do next...

Mu Wanqing watched Lin Yao leave, then stood up, gently pushed the glasses on her small nose, and smiled.

...

"The new version will be launched at the end of this month."

"World of Warcraft" project team.

Lei Hongguang looked at Lin Yao, did a little mental calculation, and gave a clear answer.

Lin Yao nodded slightly, and then asked: "Have you completed the tavern linkage task planned before the New Year?"

"Of course it's done."

Lei Hongguang replied immediately: "After the new version is launched, several well-known tavern stores in the Alliance and the Horde will put on the shelves 'Fireside Party Tickets', which will be refreshed for a limited time. After purchasing the tickets, players need to answer a long list of questions from the tavern owner... Our entire project team and mobile game department have worked hard, and the questions cover almost all the content of Warcraft and World of Warcraft!" "

That's good."

"Will this be too difficult?"

Lei Hongguang suddenly felt embarrassed.

To be honest.

When he set the questions, he did have some bad taste.

"No, it's just right for the players to discuss it first, and it can also bring some heat."

Lin Yao shook his head slightly: "When the time comes, the qualified players, remember to communicate with Kang Yi."

"Don't worry about that."

"Then you get busy."

Lin Yao waved her hand and turned to the Vaporwave platform department.

She wanted to ask about the easter egg.

The early stage of the mobile phone project was led by Youmei.

But in the later stage.

Because of the mobile games and Youmei, which is essentially a subsidiary of Linmu Studio.

It is definitely impossible for Linmu Studio to stay out of it.

Not only can it not stay out of it, but it also needs to cooperate in all aspects, using the influence of Linmu Studio to add more chips to the mobile phone project.

And what Lin Yao is doing now is to make sure that everything is on the right track...

The first day of work in the new year.

Lin Yao ran around Linmu Studio.

It was not until 4:30 in the afternoon.

She returned to her office and breathed a sigh of relief.

But it didn't take long for her to rest.

Lin Yao straightened up again, opened the document on the computer, and prepared to put some of her ideas about the mobile phone conference on paper.

She had a general idea of ​​the process of the mobile phone conference.

After all, she had never held a mobile phone conference in her previous life... But she had seen a lot of them.

She had seen several types of conferences.

And now, after confirming that there were no problems with the parts that Linmu Studio needed to cooperate with,

she should also prepare to write out the entire process.

"Opening..."

Lin Yao pondered for a moment, then looked up and typed the first word on the document.

But...

She stopped typing just two words.

Because she realized a serious problem - today is the first day of work.

And this year, she really entered the working state faster than any other year.

In the past, she would experience a long period of holiday syndrome after returning from vacation.

Usually, she was quite sluggish on the first day of work.

But this year, she entered the working state quickly...

I have to say, this is a big change.

So, why is this?

Lin Yao looked at the blank document in front of her and suddenly said, "No... If there is a system, it will start a ghost life, right?"

But as soon as she finished speaking.

She shook her head and denied this statement.

Not really. Was

n't she slacking off last year...

Then why?

Lin Yao thought about it carefully, then suddenly laughed softly and continued to type.

She thought of a possibility.

Perhaps.

She was excited because she felt that the release of the mobile phone could change the world to some extent from another level...

Although this sounds very second-year.

But it is indeed exciting... It made her enter the state faster.

...

After the first month of the year,

the new year is over.

Everything in the city is back on track.

It's back to how it was before.

Of course.

There are always some new things in the new year...

For example, the 4G that has been making a lot of noise recently is a new thing.

The first domestic mobile phone that supports 4G was announced last week. The price is 1,999 yuan. This price is not expensive, but it is definitely not cheap.

And there are not many players who keep an eye on this phone.

Because most players think that it really has nothing to do with them.

On the contrary, some game company leaders are quite concerned about this phone.

For example, Mou Feng of Tianhu...

Mou Feng is optimistic about mobile games. In addition to thinking that Lin Yao is also optimistic, a large part of the reason is that he thinks that the 4G network speed has been greatly improved, which is indeed worth doing.

And the mobile game they developed this time is in cooperation with several major mobile phone manufacturers.

Although these major mobile phone manufacturers have not yet announced 4G mobile phones...

But Mou Feng feels that he should be able to see the future trend from the first domestic mobile phone that supports 4G.

In fact, he did see it.

It's just.

This trend.

It makes people feel a little desperate...

This is the first mobile phone in China that supports 4G, but it didn't make much of a splash!

This... Did I really bet on the wrong thing?

Mou Feng has been following this phone for three days, but found that there was still no movement, and finally panicked.

He began to search frantically for news about this phone, and

at the same time searched for news about Linmu Studio. The more he searched, the more panicked he became.

The first 4G mobile phone really didn't make much of a splash.

As for Linmu Studio...

there was not even a shadow of a mobile online game!

The only thing worth paying attention to is that they will update and launch a small version of "World of Warcraft" next Monday.

But the news that made the players shout "Yeah!" is not good news for him at all.

Instead, it is pure bad news...

"So, will it work in the future..."

Mou Feng leaned back, leaned against the back of his chair, and looked at the announcement of the "World of Warcraft" server closure update released by Linmu Studio on the screen, feeling exhausted both physically and mentally.
