Chapter 332: So powerful that it makes people despair!
Neither Li Zhongtian nor Zhang Yin agreed to arrange a meeting.
First of all, Zhang Yin was Li Zhongtian's first love and his enlightenment in all aspects, so it was impossible for him to be calm when they met. So even if he brought his spouse to meet and have dinner together, it would be unfair.
Of course, Li Zhongtian used to have some very immature ideas.
For example, I am so successful now. Zhang Yin is just a white-collar worker in the United States. She looks good on the surface, but in fact, she works very hard. And I heard that she is dating a foreign writer, who must be very romantic, but also very amorous, and hurt her all over. Then, the two met by chance. I, Li Zhongtian, gave a friendly and tolerant smile.
Whenever he thought of this scene, he still felt a little happy.
However, this was really only an idea at the beginning.
Eventually, mutual friends would reveal the news.
Zhang Yin is married, and her husband is still the German writer she was with a few years ago. Her husband works at Dream Vision and is one of the core screenwriters of Stranger Things.
Later on, it became even more outrageous.
That was Lyon, whom Li Zhongtian’s wife Ding Yuanzhi had come into contact with earlier.
Ding Yuanzhi started out at Target Studio, but later felt that it was not challenging enough and wanted to reach the highest level of gaming technology, so he joined the domestic branch of Ergou Studio.
About the year before last, Fallout 4 began to gradually enter development.
Leon is very good at writing episodic stories and is very talented, so Ergou Studios asked him to join the writing team of Fallout 4 to write some side stories.
Ding Yuanzhi is a middle-level manager at Ergou Studio and often invites people to attend online meetings and video conferences.
There will be a lot of discussions between the Chinese and foreign divisions.
In the current development cycle, screenwriters are the core.
After they write the script, they still need to have a lot of discussions with artists and game designers.
Make sure what you want to show and what I can give you.
It’s just that they had many meetings together, including many video conferences, but Ding Yuanzhi didn’t know that Leon was Zhang Yin’s husband.
Fortunately, when Li Zhongtian and Ding Yuanzhi were together, he was already very outstanding.
And now, he is even better. So Ding Yuanzhi's feelings for him were quite strong from the beginning.
In the Lightning Group, Li Zhongtian has already ranked among the top 20.
After about one or two years, you will be able to hold the title of vice president.
Although he is not a vice president yet, the resources and power he controls already exceed many vice presidents.
Lightning Group's entire precision advertising model was developed bit by bit seven years ago.
He was even more fortunate because he was Lin Xiao's brother, the most direct of the direct descendants.
Therefore, he only needs to be himself and devote all his energy to his profession. He does not need to get involved in office politics or engage in too much interpersonal communication.
Therefore, he worked harder and deeper on his strengths and expertise, and has become an absolute top player in this field.
Moreover, he can refuse most social engagements.
On the contrary, Zhu Hongbin, although he graduated from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, did not end up taking a legal position at Lightning Group, but instead went into human resources.
Wang Lei went to the public relations department.
The third press conference on quantum technology is coming soon, and Li Zhongtian and Ding Yuanzhi have also come to Ning City from Shanghai.
After finally finding some free time, the couple started shopping in the mall.
As a result, while walking around, Li Zhongtian's professional addiction kicked in and he started counting how many digital stores there were in the mall and how much traffic there was.
How many Apple phones, Android phones, and X-system phones were sold per unit time?
Moreover, he almost instinctively observed everyone's mobile phone, silently calculating in his mind the occupancy rate of mobile phones of each system, the ratio of men to women, the approximate occupation of the owner, and so on.
These seemed to be instincts, and they turned directly into data and charts in his mind.
Ding Yuanzhi didn't care either, her mind was full of Fallout 4 related game designs.
The two of them just wandered around aimlessly and hardly bought anything.
Immediately afterwards, two people came from the opposite side.
Li Zhongtian looked at his phone instinctively.
Quantum NOTE+2.
The woman was dressed fashionably and elegantly, but the colors were not lively; she must be a senior white-collar worker.
The man was a white man who dressed seemingly casually but tastefully.
These are two high-end users of quantum phones.
Huh?!
The two people in front of me actually stopped.
Li Zhongtian raised his eyes and looked at the other person's face.
Wow!
It looks so familiar.
ah?!
Senior Sister Zhang Yin? !
No way, the world is so small?
Some time ago, a mutual friend secretly asked him if he wanted to meet Senior Sister Zhang Yin. Li Zhongtian refused, but he did not expect to meet her in this shopping mall.
But...it's not accidental.
Because the press conference is not far away from here, there is a luxury hotel and it is the largest business district.
So, it's normal to encounter it here.
"Senior sister?"
"Li Zhongtian."
"Ms. Ding?"
"Leon?"
The four people looked at each other.
Now, we can't even not meet.
"Have you eaten?" Li Zhongtian asked.
Zhang Yin: “I’ve eaten.”
Li Zhongtian: "Well, how about we go have a cup of coffee together?"
Zhang Yin: “Okay.”
As a result, when the four of them sat together, it was Li Zhongtian and Li Ang who were chatting animatedly.
"My GOD, you are actually the leader's classmate? You actually started a business with him from the beginning?"
Next, he kept asking Lin Xiao about his first entrepreneurial experience.
Because this is a relatively unfamiliar and mysterious area for him.
“It’s amazing!”
"His life is even more legendary than I thought."
Next, both sides began to talk about their work, games, etc.
Zhang Yin and Ding Yuanzhi, on the other hand, spoke less.
But Zhang Yin looked at Ding Yuanzhi very seriously, and couldn't help but say, "You are so beautiful."
This is not against his will. Before, Ding Yuanzhi was androgynous, but he actually looked very good and very distinctive.
After following Li Zhongtian, she immediately had an extremely powerful group of close friends.
Li Duanduan, Jiang Lir and others are top-notch in aesthetic attainments and makeup and dressing.
In less than a year or two, Ding Yuanzhi became a great beauty.
Moreover, she is particularly white.
"When will Fallout 4 come out?" Zhang Yin asked.
Ding Yuanzhi: "Do you play too?"
Zhang Yin: "I don't play, but Leon likes to play, so I often sit next to him and watch. I've become familiar with it and know it very well."
Ding Yuanzhi: "I don't know. The leader attaches great importance to this work and has extremely high requirements. Although the development work has been going on for several months, the script is still being polished. We have ten script meetings, and the leader will be there for more than three."
Zhang Yin: "I know that. He directly led the writing team for this game and has already written more than two to three million words."
Ding Yuanzhi: "Because Fallout 4 is different from The Last of Us, it is an open world. And an open world means possible repetition and emptiness. At the beginning, after 20 or 30 hours, you may still feel that this world is very rich and real. But after playing for a hundred hours, you will feel that this world is very empty, and you may not even find the motivation for self-development. Also, Fallout 4 is mainly about personal upgrades, while The Last of Us is often full of plot destiny."
“The leader really wants to combine some of the advantages of The Last of Us, but the world of Fallout 4 is more real and even more grand.”
"According to his plan, Fallout 4 is expected to be twice as large as Fallout 3, but also very substantial."
"According to estimates, the number of people developing this game may exceed 1,500, of which 1,000 are in China. The development time will exceed three and a half years, and the development cost is tentatively set at US$380 million, but it will definitely exceed the budget."
Lyon: "So, there is even a feeling that I want to live for this game. The years before this game came out were dull and boring. But fortunately, CDPR's "The Witcher 2" came out a year or two earlier, and that game was also very, very big. Whether it is the size of the game, the lineup, or the entire map, it is very large. It is an epic work."
Next, the four of them chatted about the game with great interest.
Lin Xiao attaches unprecedented importance to "Fallout 4" and he wants to push this game to an unprecedented peak.
Whether it is the game map, game size, or game graphics, they will all be piled up.
The richness of the plot, the richness of the free world, base construction, and so on.
Many players will find after playing for hundreds of hours that even if all the volunteer camps on the map are built and connected in series, they seem to be of no use.
The volunteer camp still only has a few rookies.
And whether it's the Railroad, the Brotherhood of Steel, or the Academy's side quests, there are certainly some good parts, but overall they are very bland.
Moreover, I can't push it up during climax.
The big scenes are not enough, etc.
We really need to learn this from "The Witcher 3" and "Cyberpunk 2077".
Therefore, Lin Xiao’s requirement for "Fallout 4" is that I would rather this series has no future than to make it the best it can be.
Even in his mind, the production cycle of this game could be three and a half years, four years, or even four and a half years.
As for the production cost, it was announced as 380 million US dollars, but in his heart he had already prepared 500 million US dollars, which is about four times the historical development cost of Bethesda.
It doesn’t matter whether it makes money or not, but it must become a milestone in the history of gaming.
In the end, the four of them chatted for several hours and then found out that they were staying in the same hotel.
We had a very enjoyable chat and felt relieved.
But... in the short term, we probably won’t be eating and chatting together again.
After finishing work in the evening, Li Zhongtian and Ding Yuanzhi hugged each other and watched TV.
"Leon is somewhat similar to Lin Xiao in some ways. He is full of romantic feelings, has extraordinary emotional appeal, and possesses extraordinary charm." Li Zhongtian suddenly said.
"Maybe." Ding Yuanzhi said while looking at the TV, and did not answer very seriously.
Li Zhongtian: "Yuanyuan, am I too boring?"
Ding Yuanzhi turned his head and looked at Li Zhongtian for a long time: "I am also bored. We are more pursuing psychological security. I can't bear that kind of very strong emotion. I need something calmer."
It’s true.
The way Ding Yuanzhi and Li Zhongtian get along at home is very natural and comfortable.
Both of them have their own study, but usually they work in the same study. They can go hours without saying a word, or they can talk non-stop.
No matter when, looking up and seeing each other will bring a strong sense of security and belonging.
For example, now, Li Zhongtian is in a state of sentimentality, but Ding Yuanzhi will not become suspicious.
She could even sense Li Zhongtian's emotions very accurately. He was wondering why he was not as talented and charming as Lin Xiao.
Then……
Li Zhongtian looked at Ding Yuanzhi.
She was dazed, especially when she was pressed on a chair by Li Duanduan and Jiang Lier to put on makeup, she looked so embarrassed.
Often when I am with a few people, I would for no apparent reason become dazed and distracted, thinking about very far away things.
She is very cute like this.
Very very cute!
Cuter than Senior Sister Zhang Yin.
When Senior Sister Zhang Yin was in love with him, she was always mature, tolerant and calm.
Of course it's good, but it lacks passion.
Although he and Ding Yuanzhi lived a dull and peaceful life most of the time, they would occasionally do some stupid and crazy things for no apparent reason.
Therefore, when Li Zhongtian and Zhang Yin were in love, they even had a feeling that the other person seemed to have no flaws.
Perhaps when she is with Leon, she will show many of her shortcomings, or to be more precise, her flaws.
Just like now, she and Ding Yuanzhi were almost defenseless and all their flaws were exposed to each other.
Lin Xiao is right, Senior Sister Zhang Yin is from a very good school!
For him, that's all.
…………………………
In the past few months, the Android camp has continued to launch heavyweight products.
For example, Samsung’s second-generation Android flagship.
Another example is the cheap phones that Lianxiang is starting to sell crazily around the world.
It can be said that both products have been successful in some sense.
Samsung's second-generation flagship is still selling very well.
Just looking at this camp, it feels like it is thriving and global shipments are constantly increasing.
but……
Just look at the overall market share.
Google executives discovered very helplessly that once the momentum is established, it is really difficult to reverse it.
In the past four months.
Apple's IOS shipments increased by about 20 million.
The number of Android smart terminals also increased by about 28 million.
Normally, we should celebrate this achievement with champagne. The increase is even greater than last year. Cheap phones are indeed invincible.
Quantum Technology's X operating system has added more than 50 million users in the past four months.
This number is simply despairing!
The point is that the two trump cards of the X operating system camp, the high-end quantum phone and the mid-range Coolpad K2, have not been released.
Most of the more than 50 million shipments in these four months came from the cheap machine flooding strategy of Master Ergou.
In addition, mobile phones priced at more than 2,000 yuan launched by OPPO and VIVO have also been successful in the offline market in China.
Leader Ergou really relied entirely on these new Chinese mobile phone brands to push the total shipments of the entire camp to nearly 120 million units.
Although Google Android's shipments are soaring, the gap with the quantum technology camp is getting bigger and bigger.
Currently, the number of Android terminals is only half of that of X terminals.
The gap between the two sides has widened to 60 to 70 million units.
Moreover, LG released two mobile phones two months ago.
With almost the same configuration, the price is around three hundred dollars, which is a typical mid-range phone.
Even when LG released these two mobile phones, it was very low-key and did not even hold a press conference.
But many eyes around the world are still on LG's sales.
Because this is the first giant in the world to produce mobile phones with two systems at the same time.
In a completely fair competition, who has better sales?
This will become a clear weather vane.
As a result, two months later!
LG sold 2.6 million Android-based phones.
And 3.9 million phones equipped with the X operating system were sold.
When this number came out, Google executives could hardly believe it.
This is likely to cause a domino effect.
This is equivalent to proving to the world that as long as the phone is equipped with X operating system, it will sell better than the Android system.
Other mobile phone manufacturers, what are you waiting for?
Are you going to go against the market? Are you going to go against global users?
………………
Note: I have finished the work and would like to ask for monthly votes. Thank you.
