Chapter 1586 A Group of Rats
Large-scale traditional online games, compared to the large-scale competitive games that are slowly becoming popular now, are actually much more difficult to manage personnel and eliminate predators.
Because in traditional online games, the attributes and equipment of characters, as well as all aspects of pet beasts are too easy to get started with.
For example, insiders of game companies collude with other people internally and externally to acquire some valuable equipment for sale. Another example is that a few years ago, there was a programmer in the Legend Game Group. He made a game character himself and sold it to others through gold coins in the background, etc.
Just by moving your fingers a few times to get data, you can earn hundreds or thousands of dollars. It is difficult for ordinary people to restrain their greed.
There are even hundreds or even thousands of equipment. Nowadays, a top-notch weapon in Fantasy Westward Journey is as good as an apartment in Magic City. Faced with the temptation of such huge profits, many programmers cannot help but take risks.
And they took the risk and got the money, but it caused the proliferation of some weapons and equipment in the game, and the trading market collapsed like inflation, causing huge losses to the company.
Economic games do not have this kind of trouble. Competitive game companies only need to stabilize the game system and program as they should, and then resolutely ban cheats.
There is no profit model such as buying weapons and equipment or buying gold coins. At most, you can just get a skin by yourself, and having multiple skins for one account will have no impact on the balance of the game.
For high-end players, their own skills are far more important than their skin, so game balance and game operations are relatively easier to do.
Therefore, in the past two years, Yang Dongxu has begun to test the waters with the "Sail" platform, and has begun to shift the focus of Xuri Technology Company's games to competitive games.
But what currently supports Xuri Technology's position as the leader in the game market is, after all, traditional large-scale online games such as "Fantasy Westward Journey", "Legend" and "Swordsman".
Therefore, these games are also the hardest hit areas for anti-corruption. In web games, many programmers have obtained a data number for themselves.
If you just play it by yourself, that's fine. If you go in and beat up people randomly, you can think of it as stimulating consumption for the game. Let those players who are willing to charge money continue to charge money to become the boss, and in turn crush you.
But you actually sold these accounts privately, which is undoubtedly a blatant act of harming the public and enriching private interests. If a player spends money to sell your account, will he still add money to his own account?
Therefore, in the past two years, the anti-corruption efforts of Xuri Technology's major game departments have become stronger each time, but the number of people detected has increased year by year. As a result, Yang Dongxu looked ugly during the meeting at the end of every year.
The reason why it is so ugly is not only because of the corruption of these people, but also because these people are relatively capable employees within the game group.
But then again, if these employees were not very important, they would not have access to the core source code to buy equipment, accounts, and gold coins for themselves.
The success of the game is inseparable from the efforts of these people, but also because the game is successful, the virtual items in it are more valuable, and it is more convenient for these people to commit crimes.
This kind of thing seems to form a vicious cycle.
When Legend became an instant hit and started to become popular, there was a big rat inside.
Now the Fantasy Westward Journey market is beginning to stabilize and grow, and it is beginning to show its evergreen characteristics as a domestic game. Insiders began to draw oil from it.
What's more, in the casual game group, even the Happy Beans of Happy Landlord in the game hall are secretly refreshed for themselves.
When the game failed, everyone was very hardworking and worked hard. After the game was completed, everyone wanted a bite of fat.
After the game started to make steady revenue, did they not give you a salary increase or provide you with benefits?
Programmers working at Dongxu Technology, especially middle- and high-level programmers, can easily buy an apartment in Hangzhou after one year of work. Looking across the country, do you think which game company has such benefits?
The bad nature of human beings seems to have not changed since ancient times.
“Any employee above the supervisory level who violates regulations and uses game data to make money and is punished in accordance with the law will lose this year’s year-end bonus and receive a demerit.
Every time the self-examination is not strictly prohibited, the Ministry of Supervision will find out, and they clearly know about such things, but do not report it to cover it up.
Just pack your bags and get out. There are no one else who is accomplices in protecting you. I don’t care who you are and what position you hold in the company. A prison cell will definitely be your final destination. "
In the conference room, Yang Dongxu's face was as gloomy as water, while the supervisors sitting in the conference room were all sitting upright, and even the timid ones began to sweat on their foreheads and tremble.
After all, the big boss who used to have a pleasant appearance and seemed very friendly looked too scary today, the atmosphere in the conference room was too depressing, and his heart was beating wildly uncontrollably.
"After the meeting, everyone will write me a review report of their own department, and I will send people to all departments to conduct spot checks from time to time. If anything is found out."
Yang Dongxu snorted coldly, and many people in the conference room trembled. He glanced sharply at everyone in the conference room. No one dared to look at him, and he stood up and left the conference room.
After he left, the atmosphere in the conference room relaxed slightly, but it was still very solemn.
Qiu Bosong glanced at the left and right sides, and then it was Chen Xin who stood up and left. The heads of the major game groups also left one after another, their expressions forming a Sichuan shape.
To be honest, there were still many people who were lucky before this happened.
I feel that my boss will not do anything serious, and even if he does, he will not kill me.
After all, this year is different from last year, or from the previous years.
In the past few years, Sunrise Technology was the best in all aspects, and others could only look up to it.
But this year, the situation has changed. First of all, CC and MM have giants behind them. It can be said that they have the background and funds, and they are currently preparing for recovery.
On the YY side, user growth has fallen into a bottleneck, because after a wave of Internet users in the past two years, the number of Internet users in the past two years has continued to increase year by year, but not as exaggerated as in the past two years.
Therefore, it is impossible for YY's registered users to grow explosively and soar like in the past two years.
In terms of games, Magic Domain and World of Warcraft have now stabilized their pace. Although they are not comparable to Sunrise Technology in general, they each have their own private land, are very profitable and have a stable position.
In addition, Weibo has emerged as a new force, and Baidu has entered a period of rapid growth since it launched a satellite, etc.
As Sunrise Technology, which has already stood at the top of the industry pyramid, needs the entire industry to grow upward at the same time if it wants to move forward.
However, those who are chasing behind are following the path that Sunrise Technology has taken and are catching up quickly.
Therefore, in the eyes of some people, their boss will definitely choose to stabilize the overall situation and continue to maintain it without giving those who are catching up the opportunity, so even if they do something, it should be temporarily safe.
When it is not safe in the future, it will be a few years later, and they have already made enough money to immigrate abroad.
But what they never expected was that Yang Dongxu didn't care about the turmoil caused to the company by such a ruthless move.
Either don't make a move, or a group of people will go to jail and eat prison food.
How can this not make those who have some tricks but have not yet found out tremble.
After Qiu Bosong and others left, they did not go to Yang Dongxu's office.
Because Yang Dongxu did not return to the office at all, but left the company directly.
After several people returned to their departments and convened the people below for a serious meeting.
The heads of several departments gathered in Qiu Bosong's office.
"It's useless for you to come to me. You know the boss' temper over the years. And this time, it's not just the rats in your game department that are frightening, I'm not having a good time here either."
Seeing Chang Hao and others looking at him, Qiu Bosong said with a wry smile.
In fact, compared with the crimes of using some game equipment, gold coins and virtual program data to make money in the game department, his crimes are more serious.
There are actually people who are doing commercial espionage and directly sell the development plan of 361 in the next few years and the news of the computer self-use system that Rising Sun Technology has already started to develop.
Fortunately, the spy's position is not very high, so he only knows the plan, but not the specific progress, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable.
After all, if it's just a plan, it doesn't matter even if someone knows it.
Because now in domestic technology companies, who doesn't shout a few slogans about independent innovation of national enterprises?
There are even some people who really invest money in research and development. There are often news reports about these things, and the bosses of these companies are touted as national entrepreneurs.
But bragging and actually doing it are two different things, and 361 is undoubtedly the kind that actually did it.
In addition to independently developing domestic computer systems, 361 has also had in-depth cooperation with the national network security department to prepare to build a Chinese network security network.
Once the progress of these projects is exposed, let alone those competitors, the United States will definitely be unable to sit still.
Microsoft will definitely be the first to jump out. After all, if China really has its own computer system, what will Microsoft do?
Does the US Internet really use Microsoft to gain international advantages?
You must know that the reason why Microsoft is pirated so seriously in the Chinese market is that, apart from special circumstances, there is no reason for connivance?
And the purpose of this connivance is to strangle the buds of China's domestic computer system.
After all, computer operating systems are not something you can do if you want to. This requires a lot of manpower and material resources.
This thing is made to make money, not to be given to everyone for free. Capital is for profit, not for charity.
So the market is full of Microsoft computer operating systems that are better and more advanced than you, and these systems are all free.
If you were domestic capital, would you still bet all your worth on developing a domestic computer operating system?
And this thing, you can't just develop it successfully.
After the successful development, it will not make money if it is given to the public for free, and it may not be successful. If you are a big capital, what will you choose?
So if the commercial spy exposes the process of 361's domestic computer operating system, the impact will be huge.
Although it is a bit of a boost to others' ambitions and a loss of your own prestige, who let them be the world police now, and you are still a relatively weak pursuer.
So after this matter was found out, Qiu Bosong was shocked and broke into a cold sweat, and Yang Dongxu was even called to Yanjing to be criticized and educated by the superiors.
"I know the boss is very angry this time. I am also angry when I see the losses caused to the company by those people who were found out. I am even angry to the point of gnashing my teeth."
Chang Hao and his men looked at each other, and then he, the first team leader, spoke up: "But for those who made minor mistakes and were confused for a while, can this be mitigated?
After all, there are quite a few people who were found out this time, and it is understandable that some of them went to jail. But the turmoil caused to various departments, especially the employees, who could not work with peace of mind, is still a bit of a big impact."
