Chapter 27 The Dilemma Faced

Listening to the busy tone from the mobile phone, Xu Lei couldn't laugh or cry, he didn't expect to be rejected instead.

Because he had been interviewed by a reporter from the main station before, and the school had specially called his family to express his condolences, so Xu Lei didn't mean to hide it, and directly told the two elders that he had registered a company and was doing business.

The parents are naturally very supportive of this and are proud of raising such an excellent son.

It's just that Xu Lei didn't expect his parents to relax to such an extent after learning that they don't have to worry about his life, and they would leave him and the two of them to travel to Hainan for the New Year.

However, seeing his parents' mentality is so good, Xu Lei is also quite happy in his heart. At least in this way, he can put all his thoughts on the development of the smart game engine project, and strive to make it go online as soon as possible.

"Ah~"

"I hope that when I go home next time, I won't suddenly have more brothers or sisters."

Immediately, Xu Lei put away his mobile phone, and after saying this with sincere emotion, he readjusted his state and put himself into work.

……

……

2018 2 Month 15 Day.

Thursday.

New Year's Eve.

The Longhu Summer Palace, which had already been pasted with Spring Festival couplets and decorated with lanterns and festoons, was quite lively in the villa at this time.

"Shihe, hurry up and see if the dumplings are ready."

"Good Miss Xia."

"You boys quickly cleared the table, and I asked Lu Hongbo, can you ask your people to put the computer away first, it's not work for Mr. Xu to ask everyone to come here today."

"My pot, I'll turn them off right away."

"Here comes the freshly made chicken soup~"

On the sofa in the living room, Xu Lei looked at the more than 20 figures busy back and forth in the kitchen and restaurant, and for some reason felt a little warm.

For those present, while busy with this New Year's Eve dinner, their relationship with each other became closer.

After all, everyone basically comes from various cities. For various reasons, they stayed in a second-tier city like Binjiang to develop. Now they can find a company worthy of lifelong entrustment and a group of like-minded colleagues. Everyone will cherish it very much.

But what needs to be explained is that Xu Lei didn't intend to put on airs of the boss, the main reason is that so many people stayed together and just finished all the work.

There is really no chance for him to intervene.

I can only sit on the sofa and rest with peace of mind.

soon.

When the food was brought to the table, Xu Lei looked at the braised carp in front of him, braised pork knuckle with sweet and sour pork ribs and other delicious hard dishes, and had to praise that the company is full of talents!
But since it is a New Year's Eve dinner, there must be a must-have meal program.

Otherwise, it will always feel like something is missing.

Then Xu Lei shouted to Xingtong immediately: "Xingtong, play Wulin Biography."

"Good host."

Almost at the same time as Xingtong's voice came out, familiar pictures and figures appeared on the big screen in the living room, as well as the opening song engraved deep in the soul.

As for the national program Spring Festival Gala.

It's really uninteresting.

Unlike other companies where the team building of employees requires leaders to give speeches and lectures, there are no such messy things in Xu Lei. The purpose is for everyone to eat, have fun, and have a different year than before.

What's more, there is no reason to live up to the delicious food.

Until around ten o'clock in the evening, when everyone had eaten, Lu Hongbo from the technical department and Zhang Xia from the operation department came to Xu Lei on their own initiative.

And the expression looked a little weird, as if something was simmering in his heart.

Seeing this scene, Xu Lei didn't think too much, and asked casually: "What's the matter, if you have something to say, just talk about it."

"Mr. Xu, our engine is about to enter the final stage right now, but the problem of publicity and promotion has not been resolved yet." Facing Xu Lei's inquiry, Lu Hongbo first opened his mouth to express his purpose.

at the same time.

Zhang Xia who was next to him quickly took over the conversation and added: "Yes, Mr. Xu, with our company's current financial situation, I'm afraid it's not enough to support the announcement of the follow-up engine."

After listening to what the two said, Xu Lei immediately understood their concerns.

In the past few months, the company has rented office space to pay staff salaries, and spent millions of dollars to build server rooms in order to better utilize the performance of Star Pupils, so that the remaining funds on the company's books are now less than one million.

In the middle of this, it has undertaken the technical upgrade project of the Sky Eye monitoring system in other cities, otherwise the situation will only be more difficult.

But it is not enough to do publicity and promotion with only this little money.

When he released the deep memory, it was because he had no funds to promote that he had to use the short video platform.

If it were released by Penguin, with the various resources they have now, I am afraid that the number of deeply missed users will break through one million on the same day.

As the saying goes, it is easy to do things with money, and it is impossible to deny this.

The key game engine is different from ordinary software. Even if the engine developed by Future Technology is easier to operate and more intelligent than the market, it will be very difficult to stand out in today's nearly mature engine licensing market.

And this can better reflect the importance of early publicity and promotion.

Lu Hongbo saw that Xu Lei didn't respond for a long time, and thought he was worried about this matter, so he immediately suggested: "Mr. I am doubling the compensation to everyone."

"I think this plan is feasible." Zhang Xia nodded, agreeing with Lu Hongbo's proposal.

As the project progresses to this day, everyone is well aware of the powerful features of the smart game engine, and it will inevitably achieve engine hegemony after entering the market.

Completely occupy the top spot in the engine market.

With this confidence, let alone temporarily suspending this month's salary, there will be no complaints for a few more months.

But Xu Lei shook his head and chose to refuse.

"The company has not yet reached the point of stopping the salary of employees. Regarding the issue of engine promotion, I already have a plan. Your technical department can concentrate on improving the components of the engine."

Naturally, Xu Lei did not say this simply to appease Lu Hongbo and Zhang Xia. The company does have limited funds right now, but in today's Internet age, there is not the only way to promote products.

The promotion efficiency of Deep Miss may not be as good as that of a professional promotion company, but at least the final result is successful.

What's more, the company still has plenty of time to prepare.

Although Lv Hongbo and Zhang Xia entered the company at different times, through their contact with Xu Lei during this period, they both know his character and work style.

Now that they have made their words so clear, it is not easy for them to say more on their behalf. They can only choose to trust the boss's ability.

"I understand Mr. Xu."

After finally answering this sentence, he turned around and left to join other people's games.

……

The Spring Festival holiday has passed, and March has arrived in a few days.

The smart game engine developed by Future Technology with the help of artificial intelligence assistants has finally entered the stage of final testing and publicity.
