Start the era of black technology

Xu Pingan stayed at the headquarters for a few days and then took a single-person aircraft to the Hangzhou Science and Technology headquarters. This time he came to be a referee, and there were major disagreements within the game company.

Mi Jian and Ye Changlin got on the bar. Since Mi Jian and Zhu Hongyun made an excuse to reconcile themselves, their relationship has become very close. At first, Mi Jian didn't want to be so stiff with Ye Changlin.

When I was eating with Zhu Hongyun, Cui Tianyi, Li Changfeng, Gao Haiyang, Yao Peng and the others, Mi Jian talked about conflicts between himself and Ye Changlin over the new version of the game.

"You are afraid of a fart, you forgot who our boss is, and if you are right, just insist. I think Ye Changlin dares to fire you."

"Don't forget, we were personally invited by President Xu," Zhu Hongyun said unceremoniously.

Mi Jian is very aware of Zhu Hongyun's status, and he also has this status. It's impossible. Zhu Hongyun is domineering because Zhu Hongyun's technology is top-notch, and there are many people who replace him in the company.

"Xu always can stand on our side" Li Changfeng asked, lacking confidence.

Li Changfeng currently manages the internal system of Tianqi Group. The entire internal system of Tianqi Group runs on one platform, including the normal operation of Tianqi Group's domestic and foreign official websites.

Zhu Hongyun curled his lips and understood what these people meant, "As long as you are responsible, Mr. Xu will stand by our side. Don't look at me being overbearing, that's because I am responsible."

"When dealing with Mr. Xu, as long as you take care of it, everything is not a problem."

"Well, this time I will never give in. I must give players more freedom. The same game is not what our players are after. I will definitely hit the end this time." Mi Jian made up his mind.

"What do you mean by giving players greater freedom in the fairy world?" Zhu Hongyun asked after taking a sip of wine.

Mi Jian put down the wine glass, "Brother Zhu, in the new version, I added a logic program for the NPC, that is to say, if you talk to the NPC, it is very likely that you will refuse to release the task for you."

"The specifics depend on your character. If your character is good, you may be able to get hidden missions. If your character is not good, you can't get ordinary missions, so that players can experience the authentic world of cultivation to the greatest extent." .

Zhu Hongyun was taken aback for a moment, the logic program "you won't add our logic program, I rely on it, that program is not perfect yet" Zhu Hongyun said, sweating down.

"It is imperfect, but it will gradually improve over time. There are all kinds of players in the game. The only problem is that they need frequent upgrades and patches."

"At the same time, the current server needs to be fully upgraded and controlled by a more powerful supercomputer."

"Ye Changlin thinks that the cost is too high and I must let me go step by step. This is the root of the contradiction between the two of us," Mi Jian said directly.

"You are awesome, you dare to give NPC intelligence, how do you calculate the player's character" Li Changfeng directly asked a key question.

"This is a hidden attribute that will be planned according to a person's normal behavior. The Virgin is the Virgin, and the selfishness is selfish. Just like a normal person, it is calculated based on self-interest, guild interests, friends, camps, etc. To make a trade-off"

"According to my plan, after perfecting this program, it will be directly linked to the Tribulation, and the difficulty of crossing the Tribulation is determined according to your character. If your character is not good, you can only die under the Tribulation," Mi Jian said directly.

Several people were stunned, Zhu Hongyun looked at Mi Jian, "Brother, tell me about your algorithm, we will be through the foundation building in a while, you can't bear to watch me die in smoke, right? ".

According to the setting of the fairyland civilization, players with deep foundations will face a thunder tribulation after building the foundation. After passing them, the foundation will be deeper. However, re-establish the characters and start playing.

This method caused a lot of volatility among players at the time. Apocalypse Game Company directly issued an option for the players to decide for themselves, and only one vote for a player account.

As a result, after the two-week voting period expired, 67% of the players who chose to clear the robbery directly accounted for 67%. This result caused Ye Changlin's jaw to drop.

Because of this problem, Mi Jian also had a conflict with Ye Changlin, and letting the players make their own choices was the way the two people came up with to resolve this opposition.

As a result, Mi Jian won.

"Brother, you know the logic program very well, I can't control it" Mi Jian said, scratching his head.

Zhu Hongyun narrowed his eyes, thought for a moment and said, "Tell me about your algorithm, and I will see if I can find the loopholes."

"Let’s eat first, let’s go back and talk," Mi Jian said. Everyone nodded, and then they started drinking and eating meat. They had to eat with Zhu Hongyun. There must be enough meat.

Several people have bought houses here in Hangzhou, and they are all villas, and they are all next to each other. The cars of several people are also bought together. The license plates of several people are connected.

It can be regarded as a small group that is relatively close, and they have a care for each other.

When they came to Mi Jian’s villa together, everyone went straight to Mi Jian’s study and started discussing the algorithm. The night passed without knowing it, and the eyes of several people started to turn red.

"Damn, are you crazy"

"This algorithm changes anytime and anywhere with player account activities. An ordinary supercomputer is not enough. At the very least, you need to add another super database."

"And it can't be effective immediately. With such a large investment, coupled with the subsequent intermittent upgrade patches, it is no wonder that Ye Changlin did not agree. Can your program department improve the follow-up system?" Zhu Hongyun said, touching the fat on his chin.

Purchasing parts and components to assemble a supercomputer requires at least 80 million euros to meet Mi Jian's vision, plus the subsequent huge database, at least 40 million euros.

The investment of more than one billion euros is not an immediate effect. So many national servers need to be upgraded and too much funds are needed. How could Ye Changlin agree? Zhu Hongyun now understands Ye Changlin's difficulties.

"If you don't have enough staff, you will be recruited. Normal technicians will definitely not work. If you need a real master, you will definitely need Brother Zhu to help," Mi Jian said from the side.

Zhu Hongyun nodded and said, "It's okay to help. Your topic is related to the artificial intelligence I am currently doing. My analysis, Xu will support you."

"Because Tianqi Group's next step is to focus on artificial intelligence, and Mr. Xu is willing to invest in this area."

"I'll give you a suggestion to calm down with Ye Changlin, and talk about it seriously. It's best not to make trouble with President Xu. If you really want to make trouble with President Xu, Ye Changlin will lose face."

"Since the company's focus is on artificial intelligence, why would Ye Changlin disagree? This is helpful for collecting artificial intelligence information," Mi Jianda said puzzled.

"It's normal. This is my guess. Ye Changlin was the first to follow President Xu, but now you can see that Ding Zhijun and Qiao Yicheng are both above him."

"Ye Changlin's vision is still a bit short, and I have been taught less by Mr. Xu. Ding Zhijun and Qiao Yicheng were beaten repeatedly by Mr. Xu. Now as long as it involves artificial intelligence, it is a green light for me." Zhu Hongyun explained.

Only then did Mi Jian understand what was going on, and said with a serious face, "I will have a good talk with Ye Changlin at work later."

"That's right, the company advocates disputes with different opinions, and Ye Changlin is not an unreasonable person. If you really don't make sense, let Ye Changlin and Mr. Xu call to decide this matter," Zhu Hongyun said directly.

Several people went to the bathroom to wash up. They went outside to eat a bit of food and went to work together. When they came to the company, Mi Jian sorted it out and went to talk to Ye Changlin.

This time, Mi Jian’s attitude was very good, and Ye Changlin also listened carefully. This requires a lot of investment. The version update definitely needs global synchronization. One place invested more than 100 million euros, and so many places, it would require several billion euros. Invest.

Ye Changlin let out a long sigh, took out a cigarette and handed it to Mi Jian. "Mi Jian, really, if it's just an upgrade of the Tianchao area, I will support you"

"But you also know that a region invested more than 100 million euros, and the fairy world civilization is now operating in 38 countries, and it needs to invest almost 4 billion euros. This is not a small number."

"I will call Mr. Xu in a moment and let him decide. The amount of investment required is too large and I cannot make this decision."

"I understand, it makes Ye always embarrassed." Mi Jian was also very polite at the moment.

Ye Changlin spit out the smoke in his mouth and smiled bitterly, "What is embarrassing is for work, it's okay."

In this way, Xu Pingan needs to make a decision on this matter. With the investment of several billion euros, no one can be this family except Xu Pingan. If Ding Zhijun and Qiao Yicheng are replaced, they will also make the same decision as Ye Changlin. .

Xu Ping'an came all the way and saw that many people were using single-man aircraft and greeted each other through a transparent cover. The single-man aircraft had been on the market for more than a year, and sales began to stabilize. Basically, everyone who should buy it bought it.

People who have not bought it really cannot afford it. The price of millions is not affordable for everyone.

When they came to their office and made some tea, Ye Changlin and Mi Jian came over quickly and shook hands with the two of them. They sat down to drink tea together and listened to the two people's detailed explanation.

After hearing what the two said, Xu Ping'an thought for a while and asked, "Mi Jian, if a single server is running, other servers will not be upgraded for the time being. Can the current supercomputer and database be satisfied?"

Mi Jian frowned and thought about it, "The supercomputer is okay, the database is not enough, it must be upgraded, because this set of algorithms is too complicated."

"You make a list, only for one server upgrade, and clearly tell the player that this is a test version, which has a lot of freedom, is very realistic, and more difficult. Let the players choose by themselves. Anyway, our servers are full now."

"It's not a big deal to open a new server for experimentation. In this way, if you just upgrade the database, the 100th person in your program department can also take care of it."

"It's not a big investment. A total of 780 million euros can fully upgrade the databases of various countries. It is enough to fully launch this kind of test area," Xu Ping'an said while looking at the two.

Both Ye Changlin and Mi Jian breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Changlin felt very uncomfortable. Why couldn't he think of such a simple method? The difficulty was really outdated and his thinking couldn't keep up with Mr. Xu's pace.
