Open the era of black technology

Chapter 855 Game Upgrade
Callon came directly to Xu Pingan's side, directly entered the internal cloud system of Tianqi Group, and called up some videos for Xu Pingan to watch. Xu Pingan must understand where the money was spent.

If Xu Pingan didn't feel that the money was worth it, it might be difficult to obtain new special funds.

These videos are all videos with special effects, so that you can't see any flaws at all, everything is natural and very delicate.

At least it was more exquisite than any special effects Xu Pingan had seen before.

After reading it, thinking of the money spent, Xu Ping'an felt a pain in the flesh.

"Carlon, I know what you mean by letting me watch the video, and I know you didn't spend money randomly"

"However, you must tell me clearly how many years it will take for this film to pay back," Xu Pingan said while looking at Karlone.

Callon didn't know how to answer for a moment. If it was another company, he could still say something big, but this is Tianqi Group, and the punishment for telling lies is the highest in the world.

"Boss, it's very difficult for us to pay back the cost of this film from its release, and we may not be able to recover our investment in the next few years," Callon said with a helpless expression.

Hearing what Karlon said, Xu Ping'an felt a little better, because Karlon didn't tell lies.

There can be disputes within the Tianqi Group, but there won't be any problems, but you can't tell lies to fool people. This is the corporate culture that Xu Ping'an has been advocating.

In other Tianchao companies, it is difficult for you to see the subordinate employees disagree with the supervisor or even the general manager, but in Tianqi Group, you can easily see it.

Of course, not everyone has this qualification.

Newcomers do not have this right. If you make comments just after you step into the company, you will be fined at a minimum of [-] yuan.

Only employees who have been employed for more than three years have the right to express opinions, which is very advanced.

In particular, the Fairness Committee within Tianqi Group has very powerful rights. Employees can complain if they feel unfair.

"Carlon, I am very pleased that you dare to tell the truth"

"I understand that you all want to make an unsurpassable classic movie. This mood is very urgent, including you, and you are also in the same mood. You deliberately indulged in it." Xu Pingan stared at Karl Long and said directly.

Callon lowered his head and remained silent. As the main producer, how could he not notice the cost of the film.

Only this time, in order to create an unsurpassable classic, Callon chose not to say a word, and only came to Xu Pingan when the special funds were about to be spent.

"I will allocate funds to you this time, but as a punishment for your dereliction of duty, you will deduct half of your year-end bonus every year"

"I'll give you five years. Within five years, Apocalypse Film and Television must make up for the loss of this film."

"After five years, the average annual profit of Apocalypse Film and Television must reach 15.00% of the total profit of last year"

"If you do it, the deducted year-end bonus will be reissued in one go. If you can't, you will lose this part of the bonus forever."

"This is your punishment for deliberately indulging"

"Do you dare to bet?" Xu Pingan said, staring into Karlone's eyes.

"I bet," Callon said very calmly.

With an annual profit of more than 15.00% within five years, Callon is really confident that the fandom of World of Warcraft's big IP movies will continue to grow.

Launch two with guaranteed capital every year, and launch one more to make a profit. It can be done with a bit of hype.

"Fanxing, tell Huo Minghai to come over," Xu Ping'an said into the air.

"Good boss," Fanxing said, then fell silent.

Xu Pingan waved his hand, took Karlon to drink tea and waited.

After a short time, Huo Minghai came over. Xu Pingan invited Huo Minghai to have tea together, and during the tea, he told about his bet with Callon.

Let Huo Minghai implement what he just said, and by the way, allocate funds to Karlone tomorrow.

Huo Minghai will definitely implement the matter that Xu Pingan personally handed over. Another thing is that Tianqi Group is not short of money now, and the cash in the account is very sufficient.

Xu Ping'an asked Fanxing to notify Darlene to order Karlon's return flight ticket tomorrow, and book a restaurant by the way.

At noon, Xu Ping'an, Huo Minghai, Karl Long, Miao Yong, Lei Peng, and Chen Qilin had a drink together, and they all rested in the afternoon.

The next day, Callon flew back to the United States.

More than half a month passed slowly. On this day, NASA held a press conference to announce that the Voyager spacecraft was destroyed by a meteorite.

There was also a set of pictures released at the scene. The picture of a piece of fine meteorite fragments rushing over was very clear, and everyone could clearly see that the Voyager spacecraft had no possibility of being spared.

After all, this is the farthest spacecraft that humans have traveled so far, which is very commemorative. Many countries have sent condolences to the United States.

Xu Ping'an even circled NASA on social media, hoping that NASA can build a Voyager museum to commemorate human efforts to explore space.

This proposal has won the support of many people, and many celebrities have started to circle NASA, hoping to see such a museum.

With more people involved, NASA will have to seriously consider this issue.

While the media was paying attention to this matter, the interstellar spacecraft ordered by the European Union was completed on Pusferli Island, and the spacecraft took off slowly and flew directly to Hamburg, Germany.

Hamburg is defined by the European Union as a starship base.

Within a few days, another ship on Pusfili Island was also completed and flew to Japan.

There is no way, Tianqi Group must deliver according to the order of the order, and the factory is not idle at all, but continues to carry out orderly production.

Xu Pingan didn't want to publicize, the European Union didn't plan to publicize it, and Japan didn't do the same. None of the three parties publicized this matter.

But there are some things that you can’t pass if you don’t want to publicize them. The media refused to agree, and directly reported the news of the delivery of two interstellar spacecraft by the Apocalypse Group.

Xu Ping'an can not care about the media, but the European Union and the Japanese government cannot.

The European Union announced that it will start the Mars base plan within two months. The new interstellar spacecraft will be named Unity, and it will be loaded with various supplies to Mars to build the EU Mars base.

Japan also announced that it will speed up the construction of a Mars base and name the new spacecraft Mount Fuji, which will depart for Mars within a month to speed up the construction of Japan's base on Mars.

Xu Pingan watched the news in the office, smiled slightly, and said, go, the more you go, the better, so that you can catch them all at once.

The natural disaster destroyed your Mars base, I see if you will retaliate against the natural disaster.

After closing the news, Xu Ping'an began to devote himself to the game industry.

In the fairy world civilization, Xu Ping'an's account has reached the Golden Core stage, but now the Nascent Soul stage masters are the mainstream in the game, which is far behind.

On this day, Mastin, the president of Apocalypse Electronic Entertainment Group, came to the Hangzhou branch, and Jacques, the president of the French game company branch, also came.

Mastin, Jacques, Ye Changlin, the three started a meeting to discuss the overall upgrade of the end game.

Apocalypse Electronic Entertainment Group has been conducting research on a global unified server. So far, there has been little progress, and there are many technical issues involved.

If it is just a technical problem and there is a way to overcome it, it is nothing more than spending money and time.

The biggest problem in wanting to unify servers is the governments of various countries, and the relevant departments of various countries want to get a share of it. This is the biggest problem.

The issue discussed this time is not a unified server issue, but a comprehensive server upgrade issue.

At present, there is basically one server for each country. Although this is achieved, you cannot allow players to fully activate special effects. If all players activate all special effects, the server will not be able to handle it.

Well now, the new generation of servers has passed the verification, and the internal test can fully support the scene with full special effects. If you want to upgrade all of them, the cost problem is not a small problem.

Taking the small country of South Korea as an example, the agent needs to invest more than 800 million euros to upgrade the server. If it is replaced by a big country like China, the investment will be even more.

The larger the country, the more players there are, and the greater the agent's investment.

The three of them discussed it, and all three of them agreed to fully upgrade. After the special effects are fully activated, the player experience is completely different from what it is now.

The equipment is cooler and the combat effect is more popular. This kind of scene is the player's pursuit.

Why is the market for single-player games so big? Isn’t it because of the high definition of stand-alone games and realistic special effects? If client games can also achieve this, it will greatly squeeze the living space of stand-alone games.

The next day after the discussion ended, Apocalypse Electronic Entertainment Group issued a notice to hold an agent meeting, requiring agents from various countries to gather in Hangzhou within five days to discuss this matter.

The purpose of holding the meeting was also reported to Xu Pingan. Xu Pingan smiled after reading it. Mastin finally started to attack, crushing the living space of stand-alone games.

Nowadays, gamers really don’t lack money, and a group of people have made a fortune because of games. This is all due to the financial system implemented by Tianqi Group many years ago.

After the game currency is linked to the real currency Euro, players have found a new direction of struggle. The United States is the one that hates this financial system.

With the popularity of the game, the coverage of the euro began to increase greatly, forcing many countries to start using the euro as the settlement currency, which caused the dominance of the US dollar to collapse a lot.

He secretly made several small moves in a row, but was forcefully resolved by the European Union, saying that he must ensure the normal operation of the financial system of Apocalypse Electronic Entertainment Group, and he would not hesitate to lose money.

After the two sides moved their hands several times secretly, the United States had no choice but to compromise. If it is forced any further, the EU will be completely pushed into the arms of the Chinese Empire.

This is even more detrimental to the United States, so we can only admit it by pinching our noses.

However, the United States and Canada strictly implement the game currency pegged to the U.S. dollar, otherwise, your game will be shut down for me.

After multi-party negotiations, the US and Canada's client game settlements are mainly based on US dollars, and other countries continue to implement the financial plan based on the game currency linked to the euro.

Last year, Hahn, the chief economic analyst of the European Union Bank of Switzerland, said that as long as Apocalypse Group's game finance business and Golden Grass business exist, Apocalypse Group will not have the risk of bankruptcy.

These are two cash monsters. Every day, every minute, and every second, they are creating a steady stream of cash flow for Tianqi Group, and they are also on a global scale.

This is the guarantee for Apocalypse Group to maintain a high reputation in major banks around the world.
