Build a game empire from scratch

The next day, Saturday, 7:45 am.

Lin You had already turned off the alarm clock and started to sleep back into the cage.

As for NetDragon's R\u0026D department, everyone is already sitting at their desks, opening the webpage, taking out their mobile phones and tablets, and preparing for the third opening to grab the goods.

Don't ask why you don't rest, is it rare to go to work on Saturday?

Recently, NetDragon's R\u0026D department is under a lot of pressure. The boss boasted to Haikou and assured the boss that he would complete the technological breakthrough within 2 months.

Now that more than half a month has passed, let alone a technological breakthrough, there is not even a clear direction.

There are probably feasible plans, but they all take ten or twenty years at first glance, and they may not be successful in the end.

But this plan was flatly denied by the director Wei Zhang.

He firmly believed that Lin You must not have adopted this traditional plan, and there must be a shortcut they didn't know about! It was by chance that Lin You discovered this shortcut, and was able to achieve a technological breakthrough in a simple rental house of 20 square meters.

The problem is that they can't find this shortcut.

When he promised his boss that the results would be produced within 2 months, Wei Zhang's idea was to grab a mirage from the Internet and come back to do reverse engineering.

But he never expected that Yunmeng's mainframe would be in such high demand. There were two batches of goods, 600,000 units, and he couldn't get a single one.

I really couldn't bear the pressure from the boss later, so I lost all face, and straightforwardly mobilized all the employees to find a way to get a mirage reverse engineer.

But in the end, it was just a painful discovery that on various second-hand platforms, there were only purchase orders for Mirage hosts, but no sell orders.

Many people have already offered 10 times or 20 times the price, but they still can't buy one.

Wei Zhang angrily posted a purchase order of 300,000 yuan, but was actually reported by the scalper for fraud and banned by the platform.

...

All in all, Wei Zhang tried his best, but failed to get a piece of equipment from other channels.

In the end, we had no choice but to make a bad decision. All the employees will grab the goods in three openings, and even use the crowd tactics to grab a few mirages.

Even if you only grab one, it has important guiding significance for research and development.

Five minutes to go! Pull yourself together!

Wei Zhang reminded again, but although he took it very seriously, he was still very confident in his heart.

After all, this is a research and development center, with industrial-grade fiber-optic cables and top-of-the-line computers. The speed is beyond comparison for ordinary users.

With such a big advantage, and nearly a thousand people together, no matter how you think about it, it is impossible to return empty-handed.

If it weren't for the limited equipment, Wei Zhang would have liked to have pulled all the people from the research center to clean, tidy up the computer room, and take care of the warehouse.

It's a pity that the equipment is not enough, and those people are not under his control, he can't order them.

Last minute! Keep an eye out! Be ready to place an order!

At this time, across the country, countless people were sitting in front of their computers, opening Yunmeng's homepage, frantically pressing F5, and refreshing the webpage, wanting to shoot at the mirage that was on the shelves as soon as possible.

Maybe only Xiaomeng, who is staring at the background and preparing to ship goods, can know how many people are fighting for it through real-time data.

08:00

Go grab!

Wei Zhang shouted while ordering.

Delayed response!

Placing an order, entering the payment process, network fluctuations, payment failed!

There are still 1 million units, and there is no response to the order!

600,000 units! How many people are robbing them! The staff's voice became a little trembling.

Yunmeng, what kind of garbage server is this! It's stuck again! Someone became annoyed.

No! Order queue!

100,000 units! The researcher was a little anxious and desperate.

Payment! Shit! Payment failed!

Sold out!

Sold out!

It's only 2 minutes! Did you make a mistake!

Hearing the angry shouts in the air, Wei Zhang looked at the loadingIng interface that was stuck on the payment interface and kept turning in circles, feeling unbelievable.

1.6 million devices, sold out in 2 minutes?

More than 1,000 people, three sets of equipment, and industrial-grade optical cable dedicated lines. Didn't anyone grab it?

Is this reasonable?

Unwillingly, he asked in the work group: Has anyone snatched it?

There was silence in the group, and no one responded to him.

He felt that his hands were trembling while typing on the keyboard, and he pressed several wrong keys before he uttered another sentence: No one?

Not one?

The crowd was still silent.

He wanted to say something, but didn't know what else to say.

In the end, he tried his best and posted a sentence in the group: Try to contact the person who bought the host on the Internet, and buy it back at a higher price.

After pressing the Enter key, Wei Zhang felt exhausted. In just two minutes, he felt deeply exhausted all over his body. The whole person was slumped on the large leather office chair, as if in mourning.

Seeing Wei Zhang's request, the employees present sighed in the private group, It's selling so fast, Yunmeng is so terrifying. While logging into Consonance, look for players who show off online that they have grabbed the console.

This is not difficult, every time Yunmeng launches a batch of mirage hosts, it will cause huge waves on the Internet.

Those who couldn't buy it complained and even scolded Yunmeng for being a bad person and sending beggars away. Even crazy @Lin You, urging him to go to the factory to make screws.

The people who bought it cheered and flaunted their successful orders wantonly, even if they were scolded as shit by gnashing their teeth, they didn't mind.

Seeing that Yunmeng just launched a batch of consoles, which caused such a loud voice, they couldn't help but return to the small group again and sigh: Yunmeng is so terrifying.

It's not difficult to find these people who show off, but it's not so easy to buy them.

It's not that the people who bought it are all fans of Yunmeng, and they must play the game immediately. These employees will increase the price by 10 times. It is impossible to say that they are not tempted.

But after a few chats, the other person's attitude gradually changed from being very interested to lukewarm, which made the members of NetDragon's R\u0026D department puzzled.

Tried it several times in a row, and it was the same every time.

If the person chatting with the sellers is someone from the marketing department of NetDragon, then the problem may be discovered immediately. There must be other people who are contacting these sellers and competing with them.

When the seller sees someone competing, he naturally cools down and compares which side has the highest bid.

It's a pity that the people here are not from the marketing department. These people are all engaged in research and development, so how can they have such intrigue skills.

Let them compete with specialized marketing personnel, it is completely based on their own weaknesses, attacking the other's strengths, and naturally they will lose steadily.

After 10 minutes passed, I went to private message to buy, and no one even responded to them. Only a few people replied: You are late.

Only then did they realize that there are many others who are doing the same thing as them, and who are more decisive in their actions and better in speaking skills than them.

Unfortunately, it is too late to realize now.

————

It was not until 8:30, when the bustle of buying mirages had gradually subsided, that Lin You lifted the quilt and got up in a daze.

Hearing the sound of Lin You waking up, the mobile phone beside the bed automatically turned on, and Xiaomeng's voice rang: Master, you are waking up! Good morning!

Well, good morning Xiaomeng, how is Mirage selling?

The sales are very good! 1.6 million units, sold out in less than 3 minutes. Xiaomeng's voice is always full of vitality.

By the way! Lin You suddenly remembered, The IP addresses of those big companies we marked before, and their order requests have all been processed?

Hey. Xiaomeng laughed mischievously, Xiaomeng is all done, I guarantee they don't know what's going on, now they might think it's their problem.

Read on, friends, please! These days are really critical!
