Post-2000 boss: You can be late up to seven days a week!

Chapter 180 The end of the project

In January, winter has arrived.

After a tense New Year's Day overtime, the entire Tengxiang exudes a tense and serious atmosphere from top to bottom.

Shen Xu and Jiang are sitting in the office, already discussing the release time of their company's games.

"Mr. Shen, if we proceed according to our plan, this project will be completed by the end of the month..."

Shen Xu nodded slightly after listening to Chief Jiang's words.

"At the end of the month..."

"If I remember correctly, Cuttlefish Company seemed to be around that time, right?"

Shen Xu stood up, glanced at the calendar on his desk, and his expression became more solemn.

Tengxiang started the project half a month later than Cuyu Company, but it was not easy for the two companies' projects to be launched at the same time.

You know, this is not a running race. You can catch up with the progress by working hard.

As a veteran company in the industry, Tengxiang naturally has two skills.

On the one hand, relying on Tengxu's plan, Chief Creative Jiang alone has a working team of more than 30 people, plus staff from his own company.

Currently, there are about 80 people working on the "Star Wars" project.

Moreover, almost all of these eighty people work overtime day and night. After two and a half months, the average working hours per person per day is around twelve hours.

It relies on constant involution and various financial support.

Leaving aside the quality, Tengxiang’s investment is nearly four times higher than that of Cuttlefish in terms of project scale and R&D alone.

This can only be released at the same time as Cuoyu Company, which has only a team of more than 30 people, which makes Shen Xu a little unhappy.

The time people spend on work a day is only five or six hours at most.

Actually, my team did not crush the opponent in terms of progress, but was evenly matched with the opponent.

Shen Xu looked at Chief Jiang in front of him, frowned slightly and coughed a few times.

"Ahem! That Chief Jiang, can you please advance the release date a little earlier?"

"After all, as you know, our opponent has already set a release date. Can we beat them by a day or two?"

Chief Jiang looked a little embarrassed.

"This. I'm afraid this can only be used to compress the game testing time..."

As a veteran in the industry, both he and Shen Xu knew it.

A game that has not been tested and a game that has been tested are two completely different games.

For example, various bugs in the game and most optimization issues are basically fixed based on testing.

Historically, many manufacturers have bravely released semi-finished products that have not been tested.

This is equivalent to charging the player for a bowl of powder, and then giving the player the raw materials to make it himself. Naturally, the players have to greet their eighteenth generation ancestors.

Now that his own "Star Wars" is a competing product with the Cuttlefish Company project, Shen Xu naturally hopes that the game will be perfect.

It can even rub the cuttlefish item on the ground.

Then testing is almost an essential procedure, and the testing time is now shortened.

This means that the final experience the game presents to players is bound to have some flaws.

But right now, Shen Xu has no other choice.

Shen Xu glanced at Chief Jiang in front of him, gritted his teeth and said:

"In short, this is an extraordinary moment, so we must mobilize the enthusiasm of our employees!"

"As long as we can sell it two days faster than the other side, we will have the first-mover advantage!"

Hearing this, Creative Director Jiang nodded, patted his chest and said confidently:

"Don't worry, Mr. Shen, we will definitely be faster than our opponent!"

"As far as I know, their studio seems to have suspended work for a period of time, and now it seems that it has just begun to complete the finishing work!"

"It's hard to say whether they can catch up with their release date!"

After hearing this, Shen Xu seemed to feel relieved.

"Just make sure to stay ahead of them as much as possible!"

When the masters in the studio saw Cuttlefish Company lagging behind, smiles suddenly appeared on their faces.

"Look, this is the efficiency problem caused by the company system. Cuttlefish Company started work half a month longer than Mr. Shen and others, but in the end they were even overtaken!"

"That's right! Everyone seems to think that Mr. Cao and the others are good. This is in the gaming industry. If we switch to other real industries, one second of delay will cause millions of losses! Isn't it that we in Jiuzhou rely on efficiency and speed? Can you create a niche in the turbulent international business environment?"

"That's right! The rise of our Kyushu is due to the dedication of countless people day and night. Don't be brainwashed by hedonism. Our ancestors relied on this hard-working spirit to achieve our goals for us. In exchange for this bright future?"

When the audience heard this, they were a little stunned for a while. They always felt that what they said made sense, but not much.

[But it’s true to work hard, but it doesn’t mean that we will be exploited during the New Year’s Day holiday, right? 】

【yes! It was a national holiday, so you had to work overtime voluntarily? I saw that there were more than 80 of them, looking listless. With dark circles under their eyes, they said they volunteered to work overtime? Are you fooling the devil by burning newspapers on the grave here? 】

[That’s right, it’s New Year’s Day, and I ended up working two more days due to the day off. How can I explain this? 】

[Not to mention too much, can the game that Mr. Shen made his employees work overtime to come up with be a good game? 】

【Shorten test time? What should I do if there are a lot of bugs in the subsequent games? I heard that this time they still have a buyout system. Is it true that they will only do business once? 】

[Stop talking nonsense, are young people taking advantage of their prime years to dedicate themselves? If everyone worked nine to five, then at least half of the businesses in Kyushu would close down, right? How can reality be so beautiful? Just read the jokes on the Internet! 】

【yes! Our ancestors worked hard to prevent the next generation from being exploited, right? Besides, if Jiuzhou is really in trouble, let alone fourteen hours a day, I can do it twenty-five hours a day. The question is whether the result of my hard work is dedicated to our Jiuzhou, or is it taken away by some capitalists? What's up? 】
