The best mobile phone in the future

Chapter 21 The Lost Studio
This weekend, taking advantage of the holiday time, Li Bei called the computer professional expert whom Yu Wang asked for earlier.Game translation work should be put on the agenda.

"Hello, hello." Li Bei dialed the phone.

"Hello, who is it?" A lazy voice from the opposite side replied.

"Hmm... are you Mr. Wang Jiaheng? I have a question about game software translation and I want to ask you for help. It was Yu Wang who introduced you to me." Li Bei directly clarified the matter.

"Is it Mr. Yu's family!?" The voice on the other side suddenly became a little serious.

"Uh, if the person you're talking about is also a senior student of Jiang University, I think it should be him."

"That's fine! You tell me the time and place, we can meet, or you can come to me directly, mainly because I have a studio here, and there is no shortage of various equipment and technicians. It's settled here." Wang Jiaheng quickly agreed.

"Then do you have time now? I can come over anytime." Li Bei didn't want to waste too much time.

"Well... that's fine, I'll give you an address..." Wang Jiaheng thought for a while before responding to Li Bei.

……

Li Bei was a little surprised when he arrived at the place Wang Jiaheng mentioned. A dilapidated residential building was located in a remote community without any image. I saw the big Chinese character "Demolition" painted on the wall.

Li Bei was a little speechless. Is this the studio where the master Yu Wang introduced to him is located?Li Bei was a little skeptical, but at least he had to see someone before looking at it.

He took out his mobile phone and called Wang Jiaheng.

Soon, a young man of about 26 or [-] years old, who was absolutely impossible to find in the crowd, came out of the residential building. When he saw Li Bei outside, he was a little dazed, and then he came back to his senses.

"Is it Li Bei?" Wang Jiaheng asked.

"Well, it's me. You are Wang Jiaheng, the computer expert Yu Wang recommended to me, right?" Li Bei looked at the unremarkable young man in front of him, and hoped that he could help him with this matter.

"Hehe! Where did you come from, what kind of expert is there, just to make a living in this line of work." Wang Jiaheng smiled casually, there was a sense of pride in the smile, but there was a bit of bitterness in it.

I think he has already achieved profound knowledge in computers at a young age. When he was in college, even many teachers who taught them computer courses felt inferior, thinking that he was a computer genius.

But what about geniuses? In this day and age, there is no way to make any money in the computer industry. This industry is a pattern where the winner takes all the losers and loses nothing.

Several large IT companies like Netease and Sohu have already occupied most of the market, and other small companies can't even get some soup. How difficult is a bloody path.

At the beginning, he was ambitious to find a group of like-minded friends to set up a computer studio, dreaming of becoming the next Ding Lei, the next Zhang Chaoyang.

But technology alone cannot turn it into profit, and the money that everyone pooled together was quickly spent, and only the struggling snail lived in this residential building that was about to be demolished, occasionally repairing computers and installing systems. Software, these unskilled jobs, to make ends meet.

It may not even be long before this studio that once carried his dream will no longer exist, and he will also become a laughing stock and a loser in the eyes of others.

This made him a little melancholy, but he didn't know what to do.

Li Bei clearly saw the fleeting bitterness in Wang Jiaheng's eyes, and a thoughtful look flashed across his face.

Instead, he comforted Wang Jiaheng: "Where, if you just want to make a living, you don't want to set up a studio. Isn't it much easier to go directly to a software company to find a job. Since Brother Wang has established his own studio team, The technology must be strong."

"What's the use of being good at technology! Isn't it necessary to install systems for people in this ghost place to make a living!" Wang Jiaheng was a little resentful.

"Okay, let's not talk about it outside, let me show you our studio here." Said Wang Jiaheng led Li Bei into a basement in this dilapidated residential building.

Walking into the basement, Li Bei was presented with a messy and messy environment. There were four or five computers on several dilapidated tables, and the power cords were messy and entangled everywhere on the ground. There is a fire.

One side of the ground is full of rubbish, eaten instant noodle boxes are all over the floor, and there is a bed in the corner, which seems to be used for people to rest, but that bed can't be called a bed at all, it should be used "Nest" is a more appropriate description.

Two or three young people were sitting in front of the computer and playing games, and they didn't even notice that Li Bei and Wang Jiaheng came in.

Seeing this, Li Bei also somewhat understood what kind of people they were. No wonder they were reduced to relying on instant noodles for a living here. It looked like a group of people living in their huts all day long playing with computers and not interacting too much with the outside world. It's no wonder that an otaku who programs games can make money.

Wang Jiaheng was also a little embarrassed at this time, "You know, this, we usually clean it occasionally, but isn't this place going to be demolished soon? We think we're going to leave soon anyway, so there's no need to clean it..." Speaking of these words, even Wang Jiaheng himself blushed a little.

Li Bei didn't care too much, all he wanted was the opponent's technology, and he didn't care about other aspects.

"I know, but I don't care about these things. As long as you can help me do this well, I will pay you [-] yuan." Li Bei secretly speculated how much time and capacity the two games would take. A price was quoted for the workload.

"What? Twenty thousand!" Wang Jiaheng's voice suddenly became higher, and even the few people who were playing games next to him looked over.

"Who is this guy? It's [-] yuan. Is Brother Wang negotiating business with him?" A boy with greasy hair that hasn't been washed in a long time asked doubtfully.

"I don't know. It would be great if I came for business and got a job. Then we can last for a while, and I'm afraid it's just another joy." Another young man next to him took over the conversation.

"That's right. We've had nothing to do for a long time. The location of this community is biased, and there's basically no business here. It's because of the old relationship with Brother Wang who occasionally has something to take care of us. Otherwise, this studio won't be able to continue. I hope this time You can take over the big job." The boy with greasy hair replied.

"Well, since it's the customer introduced by Mr. Yu, we shouldn't have charged, but you've seen our current situation. To be honest, we can't keep going any longer. Let's just charge a little bit, or else, You can do it with eight thousand?"

Hearing Wang Jiaheng's words, Li Bei couldn't help but laugh. "You still don't know what I want you to do, and you agree so easily. If the workload is too much, you will die at a loss."

"Uh, look at me, I'm so happy that I'm a little confused. I haven't asked you what I can help you with?" Wang Jiaheng patted his forehead and said, "But since you are Mr. Yu's friend, you can come here if you want to." They won't cheat us, and besides, we have all reached such a point, as long as we can make money, we won't accept anything."

Only then did Li Bei take out a USB flash drive from his pocket, "Well, as I told you earlier, there are two game software in this USB flash drive, but they are both Chinese versions. Translate it into an English version of the game that can be played by Americans, and then limit some of their functions to make a simplified version of the game. I wonder if you can do it?"

After listening to Li Bei's words, Wang Jiaheng thought for a moment and replied: "If that's the case, it's actually not that difficult. As long as you have learned some professional software knowledge, people with good English skills can do it. In this way You paid us a little too much."

Two or three people in the studio on one side were about to cry at this moment, Brother Wang, what are you doing!Originally, they agreed to give [-] yuan before, but you gave away [-] yuan and only [-] yuan left. That's all, after all, it was introduced by an acquaintance.

Now that people have already explained the work, you still have to lower the price. It’s not a problem if you make a little bit of money. Didn’t you change your face when you heard people say that you gave [-] yuan?What kind of business are you doing?

Fortunately, Li Bei seemed to have heard their voices at this time, shook his head and said: "It's not easy for you, but this matter is very important to me, I hope you don't disclose this matter to other people, and let the game The translation is better, but the price is the same as what was agreed before, if it is [-], it will be [-], there is no need to change it."

The few people on the side did not wait for Wang Jiaheng to speak at this time, and quickly replied: "No! We promise not to say anything. We still have this bit of professional ethics. As for the translation, you know, what to do with us? That’s fine, those with poor English skills can’t survive in this industry, that’s definitely no problem.”

Several people's hurried explanations made Wang Jiaheng a little helpless, but made him even more bitter.

As the leader of the team, he has lost count of how much he has suffered with his brothers these days. Now his brothers are still doing their own work for the team and want the studio to continue. He doesn't even know what to do now that there is no place to stay. The word dissolution is a nightmare that he doesn't want to bring up and has to hold back in his heart for a long time. Thinking of the parting that everyone will face in the future, he feels a burst of pain and self-consciousness in his heart. responsibility.

But at this time, he did not disappoint the good intentions of these brothers, and he forced a smile and said to Li Bei: "This matter must only be known to a few of us. Your work is very important to us, and it can almost be regarded as a job. Our benefactor, not to mention the relationship between you and Mr. Yu, we will never leak it. As for the game translation, you can leave it to us. There will be no problem, it just depends on the size of the game It takes a certain amount of time to level up, but a normal game can be completed in three or four days. I will call you to come and pick it up when the time comes.”

"Well, fine, then this matter will trouble you." Li Beidao paused for a moment, then took out a stack of money from his body and put it on the side table, "Also, this is half of the advance payment for you, and the total is For 1 yuan, you'd better stop eating those instant noodles and pay attention to your body, don't break down your body and you won't be able to help me, right?"

The eyes of the few people on the side were a little red when they were moved. When did they meet such a customer!

Given such a high reward for a not-so-difficult matter, they offered to lower the price but did not agree. After seeing their difficulties and leaving such a large deposit, they took the initiative to care about their health. Think about how much money they owed before. Compared with Li Bei's current concern, the landlord came over and roared like killing pigs, urging them to pay. Compared with Li Bei's current concern, this made them almost have the urge to die for their confidants.

"Mr. Li, don't worry! We will definitely do the tasks you have given us!" Several people replied firmly.
