American Fortune Life

When the lawyer opened the door and walked in, Andy was about to call the game company in San Francisco, but when he saw someone coming, he could only put down the microphone in his hand, with a warm smile on his face, nodded slightly, and stretched out his hand , Said: "Hank, you are here, please sit down."

"thank you boss."

"I called you over, just one thing, to re-draft a work contract for Tori Black, and she will follow me in the future, working as an assistant, and a non-disclosure agreement..." Andy finished , looking at each other with a faint smile on his face.

"Okay, boss, I'll draw it up right away when I go back. As for the confidentiality agreement...do you need special clauses?" Lawyer Hanke immediately replied. Although he also noticed the strange expression on the boss's face, he could generally think of something, after all Tory Black's appearance is still very good, and he is working as a personal assistant, so the probability of something happening is very high.

In line with my professional habits and attitude of being responsible to my boss, although the question I asked may be a bit straightforward, it is better to ask this kind of thing clearly, otherwise troubles will inevitably arise in the future.

Andy shook his head and laughed, and looked at the lawyer sitting opposite with meaningful eyes, "Hehe, what do you think?"

Hank pushed the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, without a trace of embarrassment on his face, and nodded seriously, "I understand! Then, boss, I'll go back and draw up the contract now."

Watching Hank leave, Andy couldn't help but shook his head and chuckled again. He finally understood that his father Auston recommended this ice cube-faced lawyer to him. Affecting his emotions, the professional ethics of a persistent person can naturally be guaranteed. This kind of person only cares about the interests of the employer, and will appear a bit cold towards others.

Smiling, Andy picked up the phone and called Carlisle from Mockingjay Games.

"Carlisle, how are you doing recently?" New York is three hours ahead of San Francisco, and this time is also the time when the game company just went to work.

"Boss, good morning. Hehe, since "Zombie" was released, I have never been in a better mood than now. God, boss, you don't know how popular our "Zombie" is, the children love it to death It is! On the first day of the new year's launch, the sales volume exceeded 300,000 copies, which is simply unbelievable!" Carlisle's laughter is very hearty, which shows that he is really in a good mood.

"Hehe, this is also a pre-advertisement. The publicity is well done. After all, it takes more time to prepare than when "Minecraft" was launched. With the promotion, "Zombie" will become more and more popular. This is what I have long said. It is expected that future casual games will dominate the market in the form of tower defense. By the way, how is the progress of Toby's team recently? I am very much looking forward to the intelligent background of the game "Under the Legend". It will be our company’s greatest asset.” Andy asked the question he was most concerned about. To be honest, although he was also an IT graduate in his previous life, he basically only had a superficial understanding of artificial intelligence. Knowing that, ever since he re-entered the university in this life to learn this aspect of knowledge, he has been deeply attracted.

Since the formal introduction of the subject of artificial intelligence in 1956, humans have made great progress in the subject of artificial intelligence in the past 50 years, but they are just standing at the door, wanting machines to think like humans, and There is a long way to go, the baidu brain of the previous rabbit country is already considered the top artificial intelligence program in the world.

Andy is very clear that if he wants to study artificial intelligence, the huge data flow is fundamental, and the data model built by Baidu based on the human brain is the most reliable in his opinion, which is also the reason why Rabbit Country has come from behind in artificial intelligence. a very important factor.

Science is like this. Some inventions and creations can already determine whether they will succeed or fail when they first conjecture and construct.

Andy believes that the game "Under the Legend" is the best opportunity to cut into artificial intelligence.

Make complex intelligent programs in the form of games, and then push them to the market. Through the huge game player base, create countless customs clearance processes, collect data, build data models, and improve artificial intelligence. This will undoubtedly save a lot of time. and manpower and material resources.

Of course, the laboratory that should be established still needs to be established, but at that time it will be carried out by the research team led by him. Before that, he needs to launch an excellent software for data collection to increase his advantages in artificial intelligence research and development. .

"Hehe, Boss, Toby has become a little crazy now. He has made a simple trial version, and then led his team members to clear the customs every day to collect data. The effect is obvious and there is a big impact. Progress, but this still doesn't satisfy him. He has installed this game on all computers in the company. He hopes that all employees of the company will come to clear the level. Just play the game for four or five levels all day long. crazy..."

"Well, you have to understand Toby on this point. To develop this game requires a lot of data for calculation. Different choices will lead to different developments in the plot, and different orders of NPCs you contact will also lead to different clearance directions. This is It’s a great game, tell people in the company to help collect data as much as possible without affecting work and rest.” Andy understands Toby’s helplessness, after all, his team is only a dozen people, even if Doing nothing but verifying the possibility of the game clearance process is just a drop in the bucket, no wonder he has been working on this game for ten years in his previous life.

"Okay boss, I know what to do..."

After hearing Carlisle's answer, Andy asked, "Have you received a call from Alvetrie? In the next period of time, I hope you can cooperate with the promotion of the game company as much as possible. You can also Accept a few more interviews with the media so that you can moderately disclose the company’s operations and profitability to the media, time is running out, and I need the valuation of the game company to reach a new height.”

"I understand that I will cooperate well. After a period of time, after the first payment for "Zombie" is credited, I think the company's valuation in the eyes of the third evaluation agency will increase again. Boss, can you see if you can start?" Making a 3D game and formally entering the home game market, I think the diversification of the company's games will help increase the company's valuation."

Andy pondered for a while. He was still very tempted by Carlisle's suggestion of making a 3D game. He no longer lives in the United States, so he can't understand how big the home game market is here. This is mainly related to the rabbit country computer game With the same status, he is no stranger to console games, and of course he is not very familiar with them. He has played several classic games. Before, because his game company lacked a 3D game engine, the few console games he was familiar with Only in his mind.

With the acquisition of a 3D game company, the game engine problem was solved, and it was indeed time to launch the first console game.

"I have a story here, which is very suitable for making a console game. I also have some good ideas. I will sort it out first. When the time comes, I will go back to the company and have a meeting with everyone to study it."

Andy's words made Carlisle very happy. You must know that the current mockingjay game company really admires the creativity of its boss. Seeing the company's rapid development, every employee is eager to witness a great I am extremely proud and proud of the company's growth.

Now that the boss has a new idea, Carlisle can imagine how excited the 3D game development department will be.

"That's great! To be honest, the lads in the company are looking forward to your new ideas, boss. I think how excited they are after hearing the news. Since the acquired 3D game company was split, the current 3D The only job of the game development department is to perfect and improve the game engine, because I have been approached many times about new projects.”

Andy was still in a good mood when he heard Carlisle's euphemistic compliments. With his continuous success step by step, no matter whether it is his employees or the American people, even the most unscrupulous reporters are now very few. Let's talk about his age, especially the distrust and suspicion when he bought the newspaper. With the "Observer" newspaper's turnaround and sales, the expansion of influence not only severely slapped some media in the face , also established his status as an upstart in the publishing industry.

Lunch at noon is a meeting between Andy and Zakaria, a famous reporter from Time Magazine who is about to do an exclusive interview with him. embarrass each other.

After chatting with Carlisle for a while, Andy hung up the phone. At the same time, the red light of the answering machine flashed a few times.

"Boss, I need to leave for a while, Lawyer Hanke asked me to sign a new labor contract..."

"Okay, I see, you go!" Andy said with a meaningful smile on his face, listening to Tori Blair's slightly trembling voice from the answering machine.

"Thank you boss!" Tori hung up the phone, unable to hide the excitement on his face, took out the makeup mirror to look left and right, took out the lipstick and reapplied one side, "Boom!" The cherry lips closed tightly and made a pop. Taking a deep breath, she buttoned up the second button of the shirt collar. After all, she showed the gully to show to her boss. Others don't get this kind of treatment, so they are a little cautious.

Stepping on high-heeled shoes with seven-point heels, twisting her slender waist and hips, she walked quickly to the office of the legal department, where her future lay.
