Chapter 437: Two Bankrupt People
In 1991, three UCL graduates, Mike Mohuaimi, Alan Adhan and Frank Pierce, met and met because of a coincidental computer password Joe. After graduation, the three of them jointly founded the Silicon and Neural Bond Company.
The company is mainly composed of Mike Mohuaimi and Alan Adhan. Another founder rarely participates in actual company management. The goal of these two entrepreneurs is very simple, which is to make a game that they like and is also loved by all players around the world.
But the idea is beautiful, but the reality is always cruel. After releasing two games, silicon and neural bonds fell into a worse situation.
"Damn it, why do we call the name silicon and neural bonds? I bet that 99.99% of people in the United States cannot read the word neural bonds!" In the office, Alan Adhan complained wildly.
"Yes, that's right. If it weren't for the three of us who used the word neural key as the computer's boot password at the same time, I think there wouldn't be such a damn company!" McMohuaimi, who was standing beside him, replied.
The two of them, plus the other Frank Piltz, knew each other because they set the same technological password, that is, synapse (nerve key). After a sincere conversation, they found that the three of them had the same dream and wanted to make the best game in the world, so the game company Silicon and Nerve keys was born.
"Listen to me, Mike, we must find a way to get another $100,000 this week, otherwise our company will be over!" Alan Adhan said loudly.
"Yes, it's all a damn Nintendo. Our game sold 100,000 copies, each worth $49, but the only one we got was damn $15. We only made $1.5 million. That's so damn. Even the programmer's salary could not be paid!"
"And there is also this damn water and electricity cost!" McMowaimi said.
"Damn it, I'm asking you to solve the cost problem, not asking you to complain about Nintendo here, although Nintendo really deserves to die!" said Alan Adhan.
"Damn it, what else do you want me? My 12 credit cards have been overdrawn. If the banks know that I have done these things, they will take away my dad's house, and I will be finished. Ade Khan, you should solve the funding problem this time!"
"Oh, my God, you just might have been sealed off the house. My house has been sold, but that's what my grandmother left for me! This is really damn."
"Yes, I sold a total of $2,000 in ancestral property!"
"But that's also what my great-grandma left for me!"
Two damn guys were constantly modifying the programs on the computer while quarreling.
Although these two damn guys kept shouting, I have to admit that this did not affect their working speed, but instead seemed to be faster than usual. This is probably a bond between friends.
"Damn it, I won't write anymore, I want to play games!" Suddenly, Alan Adhan probably felt that he had reached his limit. He threw the computer mouse in his hand, then collapsed on the chair, took out a gb and started playing.
"What are you playing?" McMoWaimi, who was beside him, asked curiously.
"Of course it's the latest Pokemon. This game is so fun, but damn I can't catch Meow Meow!" Alan Adhan muttered.
"What! You actually have money to buy game cassettes!" Mike Mohuaimi exploded instantly and reached out to grab the gb from Alan Adhan's hand. "Damn it, I'm willing to spend money to buy game cassettes to save money every day!!"
"Oh my God, my Pokemon, I don't have time to play!" Mike Mohuaimi wailed while snatching.
Just as the two bosses were fighting in the office, the door of the office suddenly opened, and a petite and cute female secretary happened to see the scene of Alan Adhan pressing on Mike Mohuaimi.
"Don't get me wrong, we're just playing games!" Seeing the little secretary's expression of seeing a ghost on his face, Alan Adhan quickly explained.
"I understand! I understand!" The secretary carefully retreated. Alan Adhan had to call the secretary back and asked, "What's the matter with us?"
"That's right. There is a gentleman who claims to be the chairman of the Rockets Game Production Company. I hope to meet you and he said there are important things that I hope to talk to you!"
"Rockets? What a strange name, it sounds like a team. Have you ever heard of this company?" McMoWaimi asked Alan Adhan beside him curiously.
"I think I've heard of this name!" Alan Adhan had actually heard of this name, but he thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out where he heard it.
Until Alan Adhan glanced at his desk, there was a box containing a Pokemon game cassette.
Alan Adhan suddenly grabbed the box, looked at the names of the publishers and manufacturers of the work, and then said with great excitement, "Mike, this is the company that makes Pokemon!"
"What?" Mike Mohuaimi snatched the box, looked at it several times, and finally confirmed that it was really a Pokemon made by the Rockets.
"Damn it, my idol has come to the door. I must see him immediately now!" Alan Adhan rushed out of the office directly. Mike Mohuaimi followed him and frightened the cute little secretary.
The man who came to the door just now was quite handsome. These two perverts wouldn't be...
The little secretary didn't dare to think about it carefully, but if you think about it carefully, you still feel a little excited!
"Hello!" Jia Yapeng looked at the two guys who were running and panting, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a little scared. These two guys were not the same, right?
"May I ask, are you the representative of the Rockets game production company that developed Pokemon?" Alan Adhan asked excitedly.
"Yes, you really made Pokemon!" Mike Mohuaimi asked immediately.
"Yes, Pokemon is made by the Rockets, and the Rockets are a wholly-owned subsidiary of Huaxia Daqian Group. As for me!" Boss Jia smiled and said, "I am the chairman of the Daqian Group, so the Rockets are indeed our company's product."
"Chairman!" Mike Mohuaimi and Alan Adhan were surprised. Although they had heard the secretary say it was the chairman just now, they only thought it was the secretary who said the wrong thing. How could a dignified chairman run into such a small studio? Mike Mohuaimi and Alan Adhan were very suspicious.
It was not until now that Boss Jia personally revealed this identity that the two of them realized that it was really the chairman who came in person!
"Hello... Please sit down... There is nothing to entertain..." Mike Mohuaimi said with a little cramped. Although there were 15 people in the company, they were still crowded into a small garage to work.
All employees of the entire company sit in front of a row of computers in the lobby to work, except for Mike Mohuaimi and Alan Adhan who have their own offices.
As for other things, such as the living room, it doesn't exist at all. In the end, the three people could only squeeze into the small office to talk, which made Mike Mohuaimi feel a little ashamed.
"It's okay, I remember Apple started in such a small garage back then!" Boss Jia said with a smile, and when he heard Boss Jia say this, Mike Mohuaimi and Alan Adhan were also a little happy.
"Mr. Jia, I really didn't expect that Pokemon was created by a Chinese company. I think Pokemon is definitely the best game ever written in 1990. It is one of the most perfect masterpieces in history. We two are your loyal fans!" Mike Mo Huaimi said with a respectful look on her face.
"You two are too modest. In fact, the game development is mainly due to Xiaozhi. I just came up with some ideas!" Boss Jia laughed.
"I wonder Mr. Jia, who is here today, what's the matter with us?" After being excited, the two began to be curious about Boss Jia's purpose.
However, Boss Jia is not able to directly express his purpose, because he is not sure whether the company in front of him is the future Blizzard, so Boss Jia smiled and said, "I have played two Lost Viking games developed. I think this is a very excellent game with great ideas in it. I like it very much, so I can't wait to meet the developer of this game!"
Everyone likes to hear the compliments. When Boss Jia, the developer of Pokemon, said this, Mike Mohuaimi and Alan Adhan instantly felt extremely glorious and proud.
"By the way!" Boss Jia asked casually, "Do you have developed new games now?"
"Yes!" Mike Mohuaimi replied without thinking, "We are developing a real-time strategy game, which is a game that is somewhat similar to Command and Conquer, and Sand Dunes. However, the platform is on PC, not on FC or GB, and these two platforms cannot install this game..."
"Real-time strategy games...pc..." Boss Jia's eyes lit up now, and this was halfway.
"Then what is the theme of this game?" Boss Jia asked again.
