Rebirth 2003: Dominate the Tech World

After lunch, Ye Yunzhou returned to his study to authorize the super artificial intelligence Jarvis in his brain to control his body and continue to work on the code.

The sky gradually darkened, and the night sky was filled with stars.

However, Ye Yunzhou did not realize that it was Jarvis in his brain who was controlling his body. He had been immersed in programming for four or five hours and only went to the toilet once.

“Son, son…”

After hearing his mother’s shout, Ye Yunzhou regained control of his body, and then found that his hands were sore. He stretched hard, and the soreness eased a little.

Li Wanrong shouted for a long time but did not hear her son’s response. She was a little worried. She quickly walked to Ye Yunzhou’s study, opened the door, and found that Ye Yunzhou was stretching, and she was relieved immediately.

“Son, why don’t you respond when I call you? What are you doing?”

“Mom, you are back. I was just writing code. I was so engrossed that I didn’t hear you.”

Li Wanrong frowned and said, “Son, you can’t sit for a long time when writing code. And don’t bend your back all the time. You are growing up now, and you will have a hunchback.”

“I know, Mom. Where’s my dad?”

“Your dad is in the back. He bought some seafood. Mom will cook seafood for you later.”

“……”

After dinner, Ye Yunzhou went to the dressing room to take a hot bath, and the soreness in his body disappeared immediately.

He returned to the study to continue his programming career until 2:30 in the morning, when Ye Yunzhou’s mother came to the study and forced him to turn off the computer and go to bed.

However, the core code of this game engine called “Aurora Forge” is completed.

After the code and algorithm optimization are completed tomorrow, it can be tested.

However, the code and algorithm are written by Jarvis, so there should be no problem. The so-called optimization is just a formality. The game project can be launched tomorrow after the test is completed.

The next morning, Ye Yunzhou slept until 9:30. After getting up, his parents had already prepared breakfast for him.

“By the way, Dad, when will the painting of Tang Bohu be auctioned?”

“Well, it has been sent to Charles Schwab International Auction Company. There will be an auction tomorrow afternoon.”

“Dad, I thought about it and decided to rent an office space first and then apply for a company. It will be troublesome to change it if it is placed in the Origin Building.”

Ye Zhenting thought for a while and said, “Then wait until the painting sent to Charles Schwab International is auctioned tomorrow, I will rent an office first and then apply for a company.”

Ye Yunzhou nodded, pondered for a while and said, “It would be better to be closer to Cambrian Company and Alphabet Company, so it will be more convenient.”

Ye Zhenting nodded.

“By the way, son, are you going to see the auction tomorrow?”

“I won’t go. Classes start tomorrow. I can’t ask for leave for the first class.”

“……”

He is still quite relieved about this auction house. Although this auction company has not been established for a long time, it is very famous in Yanjing because the boss behind it is very famous.

Ye Yunzhou just wants to auction as soon as possible and register the new company quickly, so as to apply for the patents that Jarvis has copied from so many countries around the world but has not applied for in time.

These patents are very valuable. As long as these patents are successfully applied for globally, the patent fees collected in the future will be an astronomical figure, just like Qualcomm.

Well, let Jarvis take out some patent technologies in the Marvel Universe in the future, and then we can also strangle others’ necks.

After breakfast, Ye Yunzhou took his laptop and external hard drive and prepared to go out. He was going to the Alphabet company to optimize and test the “game engine”.

Because today is the weekend, most of the company’s employees have rested, and only a few are on duty. Of course, Alphabet is in its early stages, so all supervisors are working overtime.

“President, why are you here?”

“Well, the game engine is written, and I came to the company to test it. By the way, have you negotiated the lease of the eighth floor?”

“The contract has been signed, but it needs to be redecorated.”

Ye Yunzhou nodded, and he was still very confident in Xu Lei’s work.

“Is Xu Liuyang here?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, you go and get busy first.”

Ye Yunzhou walked to his office, turned on the computer, and began to optimize the game engine. Because the software was written by the super artificial intelligence Jarvis, there was basically nothing to optimize in terms of the code, just a casual check.

After a simple check and optimization, Ye Yunzhou came to the company’s technical department. At this time, several core members of the technical department were having a heated discussion, mainly about the implementation of a certain function of “Twitter”, the current main product of the technical department.

Seeing Ye Yunzhou coming, everyone stopped immediately.They stopped discussing and greeted Ye Yunzhou.

“Okay, everyone, stop being polite. Is Xu Liuyang not here?”

“The supervisor was here just now. Maybe he went to the bathroom.”

“Those from Hahayou Game Studio, raise your hands so I can see.”

“Well, 1…2,3…”

“Okay, the eight of you follow me.”

These six people are the core members of Hahayou Game Studio. Among them, there is 1 game designer, 1 art designer, 3 programmers, 1 sound designer, and 2 testers.

Ye Yunzhou led them to the conference room and said, “Everyone, sit down. There is a job that needs everyone to complete today.”

When everyone heard Ye Yunzhou’s words, they were a little nervous. They didn’t know what the boss needed them to do. At the same time, they were a little looking forward to it. They thought, if they can do the boss’s job well this time, then they will be in the emperor’s heart, right? Will the boss think of them in advance if there is something good in the future?

After everyone sat down, Ye Yunzhou continued: “I recently wrote a game engine. I called you together today to test the engine. Raise your hands if you have done software testing before.”

Ye Yunzhou looked around and found that 1 game designer, 3 programmers and 2 testers had all done software testing.

“Okay, raise your hands if you have done game testing.”

Yes, the game designer and 2 testers all raised their hands.

“Raise your hands if you have participated in game engine projects.”

In the end, only the game designer had participated.

“Okay, Lu Ming, today you will lead everyone to complete the testing of this game engine.”

After Ye Yunzhou finished speaking, he handed the hard drive to Lu Ming.

“Okay, President, I will give you the test results as soon as possible.”

Lu Ming was very excited because this was the first task assigned by the president. If he did it well, he might be able to rise to the top in the company in the future. If he didn’t do it well, he might have a hard time getting along in the company in the future. However, Lu Ming was confident in himself because he had participated in several games in a certain game company before and was an expert in testing.

In fact, the testing of game engines is neither difficult nor simple.

First of all, there is functional testing, which mainly checks the basic functions of the engine, such as rendering, physical simulation, audio processing, animation system, etc., to ensure that they can run normally and meet expectations. Of course, different types of graphics effects, including lighting, shadows, material performance, etc., must be tested.

In addition, there is performance testing, which mainly evaluates the frame rate and performance of the engine under different hardware configurations to find possible performance bottlenecks. At the same time, it is also necessary to focus on testing memory usage to prevent problems such as memory leaks.

Of course, compatibility testing is also necessary, mainly testing the compatibility of the engine on multiple operating systems (such as Windows, Mac, Linux, etc.) and different versions. It is also necessary to check compatibility with various mainstream hardware (graphics cards, processors, etc.).

There is also stability testing, which is to conduct long-term running tests to observe whether the engine can work stably and avoid crashes or abnormal errors.

Of course, there are other things like interface testing, stress testing, security testing… There are many test projects, so Ye Yunzhou will bring it to the company to let the game project team do it. Anyway, they have been in the company for a long time and have no projects to do.

“Lu Ming, you are in charge of all the people in Hahayou. You can divide them into groups and conduct multiple tests at the same time. My requirement is to give me the results before the National Day.”

There are currently more than 20 people in the Hahayou game studio. Ye Yunzhou thinks that the test should be completed in two to three days.

“President, don’t worry, I will give you the results before the National Day.”

“Well, there is one more thing. You have all signed a confidentiality agreement.”

Seeing everyone nod, Ye Yunzhou continued: “This thing is also one of our company’s core products and is also in the scope of strict confidentiality, so all tests can only be carried out in the company.”

“President, don’t worry, I will definitely conduct the test in accordance with the company’s confidentiality regulations.” Lu Ming promised seriously.

Ye Yunzhou nodded, motioning them to get busy, while he himself was thinking about which game to make next.
