Ten years as a substitute!Now that she leaves, she regrets it too much

Chapter 876 Choosing an Address
After hearing this, the dean frankly introduced the extraordinary value of this painting to Jiang An. However, Jiang An did not take the painting as his own after hearing this, but put it back to its original place.

The dean looked at him in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?"

Jiang An replied simply: "If it is such a valuable painting, I think it is better to leave it to you. What I want is friendship, not price."

The dean liked Jiang An's frankness and sincerity more and more. He said, "Okay, what you said is exactly the same as what your grandfather said when he was young. However, since you have selected this painting, it proves that you have an eye for it. . In this case, take it back and let your grandpa take a look. If he likes it, just keep it. The relationship between me and your grandpa cannot be represented by a picture."

At this time, Lao Zhang also came over holding the painting. The dean took a look at the scroll in his hand and couldn't help but sigh: "You two guys have really good eyesight. The one Jiang An chose is the work of three famous artists, and the one you chose is also the work of three of us. It’s a personal collaboration, and these two paintings are a set. I deliberately posted them separately, just because I was afraid that if someone took a fancy to them one day, I might not have the opportunity.”

At the dean's insistence, Jiang An and Lao Zhang finally accepted the scroll. Later, the dean took them to the college's restaurant for dinner. Even though this is just a university cafeteria, the food is very good.

Lao Zhang mentioned some interesting anecdotes when they were at the film studio, especially the anecdotes that happened while eating in the restaurant. After hearing this, the dean couldn't help but laugh and said proudly: "I dare to tell you, the food here is definitely better than theirs. Do you know why? Because the chef we use now was a movie star in the past. The head chef of the production house.”

"So, this is the talent you discovered?" Lao Zhang joked.

The dean shook his head and explained: "I didn't recruit people from Jiang An. The main reason was that the income of the film studio was sluggish in the past few years and he could not give the chef an ideal salary, so he took the initiative to jump to our place. And I I am good friends with the leaders of the film studio. When they learned that the chef was here, they were quite supportive. The college happened to be restructuring at that time. All these coincidences contributed to today's situation." He paused and continued: "Since the chef. After I came to the college, the quality of our food has definitely improved. To be honest, I didn’t want to eat here. ”

While Zhang Zhejie was eating, he joked: "Dean, I'm very pleased that you can say that. However, the quality of the food in the past was so poor, do you have to take some responsibility?" He has a straightforward personality and will just say what he has in mind. Frankly speaking, the dean also understood this about him and knew that he, like Jiang An, had inherited the frankness and frankness of his family elders.

The dean smiled bitterly and said: "What happened in the past really didn't have much to do with me. At that time, I was just the deputy dean and couldn't get involved in many things. Unlike now, in addition to being the dean, I am also the party secretary of the college. He has more decision-making power.” When he said this, he showed a bit of pride. Jiang An and Zhang Zhejie looked at each other and smiled. They could see that the dean had really put in a lot of hard work to get to where he is today.

"Okay, you two, hurry up and eat. I have something to do this afternoon, so I won't keep you much longer. When your branch is built, I will invite many leaders to cut the ribbon for you." The dean said, preparing to leave.

Jiang An quickly stopped him: "Dean, if I plan to build a branch here, do you have any good locations to recommend to me? My understanding of this city is still from when I was a child. Although information is now developed, after all, I have no personal experience. I have experienced it, but I don’t know which one is best.”

The dean pondered for a moment, and then sent a location to Jiang An on his mobile phone: "You can consider this building. It was built more than ten years ago, but it is well maintained and the location is quite good. It should be a game company. No problem, after all you don’t need much physical reception.”

Lao Zhang curiously came over to take a look at the location, and then searched a few pictures of the building on the Internet. He was obviously not satisfied with the appearance of the building: "Do you have any other recommendations? This place looks shabby and shabby."

"Of course, this place cannot be compared with the Magic City." The dean rubbed his eyes and lit a cigarette. "Our city was very glorious in the past, and it enjoyed a great reputation both in the country and in the world, especially It was the automotive heavy industry that once held a leading position. However, with the changes of the times and the influence of various factors, the vitality of the city has gradually weakened. However, I can tell you for sure that this city is far from entering a period of decline. If more energy is invested in rebuilding this city, it will definitely be among the best in the world and one of the best in the country in no more than five years.” The dean’s words deeply touched Jiang An. He thought for a moment and then said to Lao Zhang: "I think we should choose this building."

Jiang An believes that if the branch is built here and the location and conditions are gradually adjusted as the company develops and the city changes, it will be beneficial to the company's long-term development. Zhang Zhejie also agreed with his idea.

"Then it's settled, we'll go take a look tomorrow." Jiang An decided.

The next day, Jiang An and Zhang Zhejie came to the building. The on-site effect is much better than what is shown in the pictures. The entire building seems to have just undergone a comprehensive renovation. The exterior facade and internal hardware facilities are completely new. However, from the layout point of view, it still retains the original appearance of more than ten years ago. style.

Accompanied by sales department personnel, Jiang An and Zhang Zhejie visited several model rooms. Finally, Jiang An decided to rent two floors of the building as the office space of the branch. However, Zhang Zhejie thought he was too conservative. According to previous communication with the college, they need to rent at least three to four floors to accommodate enough staff.

Although the work direction for the new year has not yet been finalized, Jiang An, Zhang Zhejie and Lin Qingyou have reached a consensus on one point: the current focus of work must shift to the development of large-scale games. At the same time, they also realized that in order to compete with foreign game companies, they needed to integrate the output ports of micro-short games and normal games.

Based on this consensus, Jiang An made an important decision: he plans to recruit at least several hundred people to join the company, a few of whom will be transferred to the Magic City, while the majority of them will stay in Spring City. His goal is to create a new gaming industry in Spring City.

The reason why Jiang An emphasizes "game industry" rather than "industry leader" is because he firmly believes that Spring City has the potential to nurture a small-scale game production group. By integrating these small groups, a dynamic and innovative new industry can be formed. Compared with the traditional game industry, this emerging industry will pay more attention to entertainment and technological innovation, thereby promoting the diversification of games and the development of technology.

Jiang An's grand idea is inseparable from Boss Xu's strong support. Boss Xu’s capital injection provided strong backing for his plan. Jiang An knows very well that sometimes you don’t have to wait until you are sure before taking action. It is worthwhile to take appropriate risks in exchange for greater benefits. Therefore, he is determined to seize this opportunity and build Spring City into a new highland in the gaming industry.

Jiang An has a well-thought-out idea for the construction of the game industry. He plans to use Spring City as a base to create a full industry chain game ecosystem integrating game research and development, operation and promotion. This is not just a single game company, but a diverse cluster of multiple small game studios, independent developers, game designers, etc.

In his vision, Spring City will become the cradle of domestic game innovation. First, he will invest in the construction of a series of advanced game development studios, provide first-class hardware facilities and software support, and attract domestic and foreign game developers to come to work and exchange. These studios will become incubators for new game ideas and continuously launch novel and interesting game products.

At the same time, Jiang'an also plans to establish a game industry exchange platform and regularly organize seminars, lectures, exhibitions and other activities within the industry to promote knowledge sharing and experience exchange among game practitioners. This will help improve the technical level and innovation capabilities of the entire Spring City game industry.
