Chapter 482: The Otaku Version of Promising Yourself
"What did Minister Li say to you after dinner last night?"
As the sunlight shone in from the window, in the master bedroom of a luxurious mansion in Pengcheng's top-notch high-end community, a young man and woman who had just woken up were lying on the bed, head to head, whispering to each other.
"He didn't say anything, just asked about my recent situation and so on."
Zhuang Ziqing was lying lazily, with disheveled hair just after waking up in the morning, giving people a very strange and moving beauty.
"Is it that simple?" Yang Huan was a little skeptical.
"What else do you think?" Zhuang Ziqing asked back with a smile.
Yang Huan curled his lips. He couldn't explain it clearly, but he always felt that it was not that simple.
"He wouldn't ask you this for no reason, right?"
Zhuang Ziqing knew that Yang Huan was smart and she couldn't hide it at all, so she nodded.
"In fact, my family has always hoped that I would return to politics."
This explains it clearly.
No wonder Zhuang Ziqing chose to study law; it was obviously arranged long ago.
Seeing that Yang Huan didn't say anything, Zhuang Ziqing turned around, half of her body pressed on Yang Huan, and kissed him on the cheek affectionately, "Why? You don't like it?"
"If you don't like it, I won't come back."
Yang Huan laughed when he heard this, "Grandpa Zhuang and Uncle Zhuang might be very angry, and the consequences could be very serious."
Zhuang Ziqing immediately realized that this guy was teasing her on purpose and started to chuckle.
"I can't help it. I've already promised myself to you. I'll follow you wherever you want. I can only listen to you. Who is more important than my husband, right?"
Yang Huan felt very warm at heart when he heard this. He reached out to grab Zhuang Ziqing's delicate hand and stroked it gently.
"Ziqing, whatever you want to do, just do it. No matter what decision you make, I will definitely support you."
"real?"
"Don't you think that letting your woman do what she likes is the goal and direction that every man should strive for?"
Zhuang Ziqing was stunned, her eyes showing emotion, but she quickly concealed it.
He gently stretched out his hand and made a tearing motion on Yang Huan's face.
"What are you doing?" Yang Huan felt a little itchy.
"Let me see if you are wearing a human skin mask."
"Who's wearing a human skin mask?"
"Otherwise, when would my husband say something so profound and pleasing?"
Yang Huan was depressed. Do I look like such a vulgar person?
Seeing Yang Huan's expression, Zhuang Ziqing couldn't help but giggle.
"Well, since you actually suspect that I'm pretending, I'll have to risk it all to prove myself."
"What do you want?"
"Look at my Yang family spear"
"Ah - help... I don't dare anymore... Stop tickling me..."
An hour later, Yang Huan and Zhuang Ziqing had just walked down the stairs side by side when Zhuang Zicheng came to meet them.
"Brother-in-law, you two are too slow, aren't you? It's already noon and you're just getting up."
The sun is at noon?
Yes, it is indeed the sun at three o'clock.
Yang Huan stared at Zhuang Ziqing with a smile. The latter's face turned red to his ears. He first glared at Yang Huan fiercely, and then hit his brother on the head with his hand.
"How can a child like you care so much about adult matters?"
Zhuang Zicheng was depressed. I have been waiting for a long time, so why am I complaining?
Oh, you can't even complain?
Besides, how am I a child?
Twenty years old
"Sister, I didn't say anything, why did you hit me?"
"That's right, Zicheng didn't say anything wrong, why did you hit him?" Yang Huan also spoke up.
Zhuang Ziqing got angry and glared at the two of them with her eyebrows raised, as if to say, okay, you are so powerful, I can't afford to offend you, but can't I just hide from you?
Having said that, she walked towards the kitchen.
Yang Huan and Zhuang Zicheng secretly made a YE gesture at the same time and smiled.
"Hey, where's Zhang Ning?" Yang Huan asked.
"Sister Ning has to attend a few events today, so she left early in the morning."
"oh."
The servants in the restaurant had already prepared breakfast. Yang Huan walked over and sat down opposite Zhuang Ziqing shamelessly.
The latter just buried his head in eating porridge and didn't dare to look at him at all, for fear that this guy would say something embarrassing again.
"Zicheng, have you eaten yet?"
"I've eaten." Zhuang Zicheng walked over and answered with a smile.
Yang Huan nodded, "By the way, how many orders did we receive yesterday?"
According to the previous plan of WeChat Research Institute, the pre-order for the first-generation developer versions of virtual reality helmets and augmented reality glasses officially started yesterday, with the pre-order prices being US$300 and US$350 respectively.
The price is relatively inexpensive, especially for developers around the world.
If the sales volume of the developer version is higher, it will prove that the market prospects of these two products are better, and it will be more beneficial for WeChat to improve the entire ecosystem.
When this was mentioned, Zhuang Zicheng became excited, "Brother-in-law, sister, guess what?"
"Look at your appearance, it should be a lot, right?"
Zhuang Ziqing also nodded, "Don't keep us in suspense, just say it directly."
"Can't you give me a little face?" The young handsome Zhuang Zicheng pouted his lips in a cute way.
"Are there a thousand copies?" Yang Huan asked with a smile.
"One thousand copies?" Zhuang Zicheng repeated in surprise.
"Too much?" Yang Huan frowned. Isn't this too shabby?
There are not even a thousand copies. If this gets out, where will Master Huan save his face?
"Brother-in-law, you underestimate the competitiveness of our products."
Yang Huan then laughed, "So, there's more to it?"
"Of course," Zhuang Zicheng answered with his head held high and his chest stretched out, shrinking his stomach, "multiply it by ten."
After saying this, the young man couldn't help laughing and looked quite excited.
"Multiplied by ten?" Yang Huan couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"That means more than 10,000 copies?"
Even Zhuang Ziqing was a little surprised.
"Yes," Zhuang Zicheng nodded, "We started promoting it in the developer community more than half a month ago, and it's working very well."
Yang Huan kept nodding his head. This was undoubtedly a huge hit.
Compared with other electronic products with sales of millions or even tens of millions, the WeChat Research Institute's sales volume is not even a fraction of that.
Just like the Internet mobile phone brands, for them, selling more than 10,000 mobile phones is probably just a matter of a minute.
But for WeChat, being able to attract 10,000 developers is a really impressive starting point.
"Of the more than 10,000 orders, nearly 70% are from China, and the number has skyrocketed since yesterday afternoon. I think this has a lot to do with the experience yesterday morning."
When he said this, Zhuang Zicheng smiled confidently.
"You know, our on-site experience has received rave reviews, which is worthy of our down-to-earth research and development over the past two years."
Yang Huan thought it made sense. Now is the information age, and word of mouth in the morning can easily be spread through social networks and the Internet, and directly converted into order sales in the afternoon and evening.
"Yu Dehao, notify all employees that their bonuses will be doubled"
In the past few years, everyone knows that as long as Master Huan is happy, he will have a lot of money.
"Ah?" Zhuang Zicheng was stunned.
"Why? Not enough?"
"No, no, no," Zhuang Zicheng shook his head vigorously. "Our project was successful, and the bonus was originally very high. Now it has doubled. I'm afraid we have to pay more..."
As he spoke, he began to count the money on his fingers.
Yang Huan laughed, "It's okay, just give as much as you want. The most important thing is to maintain the company's morale and continue to increase our efforts in research and development to improve our products and technologies. This is the most important thing."
Zhuang Zicheng also felt Yang Huan's high fighting spirit.
It can be said that yesterday's start gave things a good start.
But there are still many challenges ahead.
Just as Zhuang Zicheng had told Minister Li before, there is nothing advanced about the hardware of the two sets of equipment. Others can imitate them in minutes. Even for big conglomerates including Sony, Samsung, Apple, and Microsoft, it is not difficult to make this product, especially with the WeChat product as a reference.
Therefore, the most important thing for WeChat Research Institute now is to improve the construction of the entire ecosystem as soon as possible, attract more developers to enter this platform, launch their products, and establish their position in the industry in one fell swoop.
Just like Apple, whether it is a mobile phone or a tablet computer, the most core competitiveness is the developers.
It is because of developers who launch various applications on their platforms that the entire ecosystem can be improved and more ordinary users can be attracted.
This is also why Microsoft's mobile phone systems are always niche.
"Well, brother-in-law, I know what to do." Zhuang Zicheng also nodded solemnly in agreement.
Currently, he is in charge of most of the affairs of the entire WeChat Research Institute.
"Oh, by the way, brother-in-law, someone wants to see you." Zhuang Zicheng suddenly thought of something.
"Want to see me? Who?"
"Remember the guy who lent you his phone yesterday morning but Chris took it away?"
Yang Huan met too many people yesterday, especially when he accompanied Minister Li on inspections, and the number of people he came into contact with was countless.
If it weren’t for what happened to Chris, Yang Huan would definitely not have remembered it.
Even so, he couldn't remember what that person looked like.
"Well, what does he want from me?"
Zhuang Zicheng chuckled, "Brother-in-law, that guy's name is Chen Dong. He's very famous in the domestic game development circle. He has excellent technical skills and has quite a lot of loyal fans in the game circle."
"Really?" Yang Huan was a little surprised.
The image of that otaku yesterday and the internet celebrity are totally mismatched, okay?
But this is nothing to be surprised about. We can only say that the otaku named Chen Dong is not good-looking.
"What does he want from me?"
"It's like this. Yesterday he waited in a long line and tried our two products. Then he raised some opinions with the staff at our exhibition area. Later, the staff felt that the opinions should be taken seriously and passed them to me."
"After watching it last night, I thought this guy was pretty good. Although he was a bit blunt, he had a good vision and interesting ideas. So I called him and had a chat with him. I found that he had some very interesting ideas on how to solve the problems of our two products."
Yang Huan remembered that guy had said it right yesterday. He said with certainty that Google Glass would never be successful and would be a failed product, and he also gave very sufficient reasons.
It can be seen that he is indeed a capable person.
And Yang Huan knew very well who Zhuang Zicheng was; he was a computer genius.
How could someone who is valued so much by Zhuang Zicheng be bad?
"You mean, you want to recruit him?"
Zhuang Zicheng nodded, "I mentioned it before, and he was willing, but he put forward a condition."
"What conditions?"
"He wants to meet with you."
"Why?" Yang Huan was a little surprised.
"How should I know?" Zhuang Zicheng also thought this request was strange.
"Brother-in-law, it's not that you were the hero who saved the otaku yesterday, and he was so fascinated by your wise and heroic appearance that he wanted to marry you.
"Go to hell and promise me your love." Yang Huan almost kicked him back to the capital.
This kind of otaku version of giving oneself as a pledge of love, please forgive me for not being able to enjoy it.
Zhuang Ziqing also chuckled when she heard this, but she did not forget to give her brother a cold look. The latter quickly stopped talking and said no more.
Otherwise, his sister will make him suffer again.
"Brother-in-law, do you want to see me?"
"See, why not?"
"Okay, I'll arrange it."
