American Fortune Life

Chapter 21: My World

In the conference room, Andy looked at the very neat queues of employees and gave a smile, although he was still a little uncomfortable with the feeling of being noticed by many.

In his previous life, he was one of those sitting down there, and he looked at his boss with awe, because the man was in charge of his job, and perhaps the same is true of the people in the conference room now.

But by the way, he kind of enjoyed the highlight, “Hi, I'm your new boss, Andy Smith, and I'm sure you won't be stranger to anyone, after all, my photographs often appeared in newspapers this time of year. ”

Andy didn't have the laughter he expected in the conference room. The employees sat down and looked seriously at him, touching his nose a little embarrassed, and said, “It seems like you're still a little bit confused, but you don't have to worry about your work problems. I can assure you that none of you will be idle. Bill will give you a project in a moment, and it's my idea. ”

Bill distributed a pile of material, and Andy stood at the top of the table and looked at the people who were looking at it.

“This is a 3D sandbox game, and what I need is not gorgeous images and effects, but a pixel pattern that you are familiar with, focusing primarily on the game XING, allowing each player to freely create and destroy different kinds of pixel blocks in 3D space to create exquisite buildings and art, or to collect objects to explore maps to complete the main line of the game. ”

“You can imagine that cabins, medieval castles, famous cities, places in the sky, and underground cities can all be realized in games, allowing players to experience the feeling of God through creations. ”

Andy tapped the table, drew everyone's attention, put a finger up, "I'll inject money into the company, so money's not the problem, you can work with confidence, and this game I call" My World ”is your future job. ”

The employees who had been unemployed for some time were excited, and the company had the funds, new projects, and there was no need to worry about unemployment.

With thunderous applause in the conference room, Bill was excited to tighten his fist. He had played a pixel square LEGO casual game before, which made him the project manager for the new company's first game.

Holton applauded, and while he was grieving himself, Bill got a new project, although he was a little jealous of Bill's good luck, but thinking about the task Andy had entrusted to him, he couldn't help but shock himself, and perhaps the project he was responsible for wouldn't be bad.

Since the people of the company haven't changed much, after getting the new ideas, the company started to operate intensely, and Andy had no experience in the day-to-day operation and administration of the company, so he urgently needed a good CEO, and all he had to do was be a good boss and creative director himself.

To be honest, there are a lot of people like that in the United States, but even so, Andy went to a leading hunting company, and he needed a CEO with extensive sales and management experience, as well as excellence in the IT industry.

Less than a few days later, Andy got the CEO he needed, and the other party had been a deputy manager of the branch after three years from a server salesman, and the deputy manager for two years made him lose hope of a promotion, resolutely choosing the headhunting company's digging angle and becoming the new CEO of Mockingbird Games.

“Welcome aboard!” Andy grabbed Blair's hand and smiled.

“Thank you, and I'm honored to be part of the company.” Blair's five-official line is very tough and gives people a serious feeling, but his smile is mild and affectionate because of his sales origins.

“Boss, I've read the company's data," My World ”This game is a genius idea, I'm sure it will make players like it, replacing the simulation life is not an issue. ”

Andy smiled, “It takes a lot of effort. Well, this office will be yours from now on, Mr. Blair.” Stand up and shake Blair's hand when you're done, "if you don't like these decorations, you can design them yourself and let them do what you want. By the way, the meeting will be held in 10 minutes. ”

“Thank you, boss. I'll think about it.” Blair walks Andy out the door, looks around at the new office environment and feels good.

As for Andy's new office, which is naturally still under renovation, only one meeting room can be temporarily requisitioned.

Andy climbed onto the conference room table, writing on a pile of paper with a pencil in his hand, and new CEO Blair and company management came in.

“Sit down and I'll be right there.” Andy didn't look up, he just said something random.

Finish painting the last game image, Andy, put the pen down, put a pile of paper together, then look up around the next area, find the people are all here, cough softly “Okay, now the meeting. ”

“The purpose of this meeting is twofold. First, this is Blair, the new CEO of the company. Let's get to know each other. ”

After a welcome round of applause, Andy continued: "Secondly, I have the company's second game project, developed by Holton. The name of the game," Plant Wars Zombie ”, is an intellectual tactical PC stand-alone game. These are my general ideas and the game images in it, let's take a look. ”

There's nothing more exciting in the conference room now than Holton, watching Bill pull away the company's programmers one by one these days, and he can only sit still, don't get upset in his mind, finally it's his turn, he can't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he hastily grabbed the game plan from the boss, nobody else, he just keeps flipping, looking at an image on the draft paper, his face is getting richer and richer, his mouth can't help but beep “Wonderful, it's just a genius idea... ”

Others couldn't help but shake their heads and laugh at the scene. They naturally knew that Holton had been involved and depressed these days, and Bill was relieved. After all, he and Holton were both colleagues and good friends, and Holton was the first company to plan for himself, but Holton had nothing to do. He really didn't know how to comfort him, he was really afraid to mislead him, so even his friends might not have done it. Now it seems that this young new boss is not easy, he planned everything early.

Holton watched the project and rose red-handed and stood up and said to Andy eagerly, "Don't worry, boss, I won't let you down. ”

Andy nodded seriously, "Sit down, I'm sure you'll do fine. Besides, you didn't show the plan to anyone else. You didn't want to keep it in your hand, did you? ”

“Ha-ha-ha.”

Holton shrugged a little embarrassingly in the conference room, passing the plan on to Blair.

Blair looked at a different plant and skill on the draft paper, a strangely dressed zombie, and looked up at the young owner enjoying his coffee, and the last minute of deep down contempt was replaced by admiration.

A dozen minutes later, Andy dropped the already empty cup and cleared his voice, "Well, now that we have two development teams, Bill, your team is going to be pulling people around these days, so recruit them if you don't have enough. Speed up the progress a little bit while guaranteeing quality. ”

“Holden, don't worry, you'll have your team fully equipped after this job, Blair, and you'll be in charge of the job. The company is renovating, the office space is limited, at the moment it is crowded, well, that's all, this time is a little annoying by the paparazzi, I'm going to go out to hide for a while, if anything, call or video contact. ”

“Good boss.” Blair replied solemnly.

Things at the gaming company are well arranged, Andy feels a lot easier, he has been busy these days, working late at night to rest, two perfect plans, the company's personnel arrangements need him personally, after all, this is where his career starts, not a little sloppy.

The CEO is recruited. The finance and legal departments are all members of his negotiation team. The development part is divided into two groups to maximize the decentralization, so that he can reassure himself that he will not be blinded. After all, he is not good at the day-to-day management of the company, or the professional affairs are left to the professional, as long as he is a good helmsman and owner.
