After a long while, Zhou Wen finally came to his senses.
He asked in astonishment, "Director Xie, you're not mistaken, are you? You want me to be the CEO of Qidian.com?!"
"What? You're not interested?" Xie Shibao smiled and asked in return.
How could I not be interested? This website is a subsidiary of Wujiang Group!
However, how could someone as insignificant as myself shoulder such a great responsibility?
Zhou Wen hesitated for a moment, then, as if having made a decision, said firmly, "Director Xie, of course I'm very interested in becoming the CEO of Qidian.com! If... your company is willing to give me this opportunity, I will definitely work hard and live up to your expectations!!!"
Such a tremendous opportunity was placed before me. If I didn't seize it, I would be struck by lightning, and I would regret it every time I looked back on this moment.
There are no second chances in life!
Therefore, I must bravely face the challenges!
When opportunity knocks, seize it!
Xie Shibo smiled upon hearing this and said to Zhou Wen, "Okay, then you can give it a try. Be the CEO for three months first."
"Okay, Mr. Xie. Also, thank you so much for giving me this opportunity!" Zhou Wen said gratefully.
Xie Shibao shook his head and said, "No need to thank me. I am just the human resources director of Qidian.com. It is not up to me to decide who becomes the CEO of the website."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Wen was immediately puzzled. He only knew Xie Shibao. Who recommended him to be the CEO?
Xie Shibao smiled and explained, "Making you the CEO of Qidian.com was actually Chairman Zhao's idea!"
Chairman Zhao?
Holy crap, isn't Chairman Zhao the same person as Zhao Ye, the boss of Wujiang Group?
Zhou Wen was immediately overwhelmed with excitement and could not contain his emotions.
He never expected that he would actually catch Zhao Ye's eye.
...
A week later, Zhou Wen officially joined Qidian.com as CEO.
Qidian.com began to get on track, improving the website, hiring employees, and recruiting writers.
Once everything is ready, the website can go live.
It will probably be early next year.
...
The hottest topic right now is still related to "Primordial World: Three Races Battle for Supremacy".
After all, an investment of $400 million is terrifying to even think about.
Many games, including Legend of Mir and CS:GO, have been greatly impacted.
The top executives of Shanda Group are very worried right now. "The Primordial World: Three Races Battle" is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game, and it will have the biggest impact on "Legend of Mir".
Once this game is released, it is highly likely that a large number of players will abandon "Legend of Mir".
"Everyone, what should we do now?" Cheng Tianqiao sat imposingly at the head of the table, his face grave.
"We'll meet force with force and water with earth. We don't have any good solutions right now. Let's wait and see. After 'Primordial World: Three Races' is released, we'll study the game and then formulate a counterattack plan," said a vice president of Shanda Group.
"Yes, we know nothing about 'Primordial World: Three Races' right now. We'll have to wait until it's released to see. But in my opinion, a game that cost $400 million to develop must have very high-quality graphics, and an average computer definitely can't run it. There are relatively few people in our country who can afford computers, and most netizens go online in internet cafes."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Tianqiao's eyes lit up, and he nodded, saying, "As far as I know, the computers in internet cafes are generally not very powerful and shouldn't be able to run 'Primordial World: Three Races' smoothly. This would naturally filter out a large number of players for 'Primordial World: Three Races'. If that's the case, then the threat 'Primordial World: Three Races' poses to 'Legend of Mir' has been reduced to the minimum!"
Just then, a female secretary dressed in a black business suit pushed open the door and walked in.
"Mr. Cheng, we just received news that Tenglong Internet Cafes have suddenly upgraded all their computer configurations to ensure smooth gameplay of 'Primordial World: Three Races Battle'!!!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Tianqiao's initial joy vanished instantly.
"President Cheng, although Tenglong Internet Cafes are very large in scale in China, they do not have an absolute monopoly on the market. We, the 'Legend of Mir', still have a chance!" said the operations manager of Shanda Group.
Cheng Tianqiao nodded, then looked at his secretary and asked, "What are the specifications of the computers at Tenglong Internet Cafe after the upgrade?"
"The CPU is a Kirin Pentium 4, the GPU is a Kunpeng 4, it has 4GB of RAM, a 300GB SSD, and even the operating system has been updated to HarmonyOS 4.0," the secretary explained.
Everyone was greatly shocked upon hearing this.
Wujiang Group is truly powerful in the fields of computers and chips. This configuration is number one in the world; other computer companies simply cannot produce it.
Especially the chips; it's said that Canon and Nikon are almost going crazy.
After more than 20 years of research on dry lithography machines, there has still been no major breakthrough.
In contrast, Wujiang Microelectronics makes significant breakthroughs in chip manufacturing processes every year.
Cheng Tianqiao couldn't help but think of the phrase "a lone rider leaving all others in the dust." In the semiconductor field, Wujiang Microelectronics Company was indeed a lone rider, leaving its pursuers far behind.
"How much would a computer with these specifications cost?" Cheng Tianqiao continued to ask.
The secretary replied, "The market price seems to be around 10,000 yuan, which is quite expensive."
