Chapter 418: An Antique From 100 Years Ago
Lin You spent a lot of effort and assured He Peng three times in a row: This is really a literary creation and has nothing to do with scientific research.
Even so, He Peng was still a little skeptical when he hung up the phone.
Turning around, he called the security team, intending to ask them what Lin You had added to the laboratory recently.
For Lin You's parcels, small ones are sometimes taken by himself, but for larger ones, Yue Pengju will help.
If you are buying experimental supplies, the goods you buy are often not only large in size, but also in large quantities. In the end, most of them are sent by the security team to help move them into the laboratory.
And if Lin You planned to build an exoskeleton, then ask the security team, they will definitely notice some signs.
Lin You also sat in the office.
Today is bound to be a busy day.
Lin You even felt that holding a plenary meeting was too inefficient, so he simply logged into the virtual world office and began to arrange work directly.
First find Zhong Chang, and assign the task of finding Feihu and Huangdao to discuss cooperation.
After Zhong Chang learned about Lin You's specific thoughts, he went offline without saying a word, and started to act confidently.
In his opinion, such a three-win task is really not difficult at all.
For players, as long as the cooperation is reached, they can play VR games more easily.
——Of course, you must have both Mirage and VR equipment to play now.
Such players do not account for a very high proportion in Yunmeng.
There are very few players who are willing to buy another set of VR equipment specifically for VR games.
However, given the large number of Yunmeng users, even if it is a small proportion, the actual number is considerable.
In particular, the virtual world excludes the physical requirements of VR games, which will definitely help expand the user base of VR devices.
For Flying Fox and Deserted Island, this means: old users can increase the activity and discussion of the game, and new users can get money for nothing.
All they need to pay is a license and a few system updates, so why not do it?
As for Yunmeng——
Yunmeng not only made money, but also enriched the ecology of the Mirage mainframe, and the best part was that it cost nothing.
Anyway, the boss never counts his investment in software research and development into the cost.

After sending Zhong Chang away, Lin You found the new head of the live broadcast department: Luo Tian.
This is a veteran in the live broadcast industry, who has been working in the live broadcast industry for six years.
If it is in a traditional industry, 6 years is still far away from the title of "veteran qualification".
But the Internet industry is different. The live broadcasting industry has only been around for 8 years from its inception to the present. Luo Tian's 6 years of experience in the industry is already very rare.
Whether it is experience or contacts, they can help Yunmeng build his own live broadcast platform and bring great help.
But today's exchange is more for the purpose of "caring for new employees".
—— After a while, after Luo Tian got used to the new job, it would not be so easy to meet Lin You easily.
Lin You was not surprised to see: Luo Tian's face was excited, obviously the work was going very smoothly.
From joining the company to the present, his main job content is actually to activate his personal connections in the industry.
To put it more bluntly - poach people everywhere.
At first, his idea was: firstly recruit a few backbones and add some newcomers to ensure that the platform can operate. After that, he can continue to recruit people to expand the team while improving the live broadcast ecology.
The benefits of doing this are obvious: you can quickly support a team and let the business run as fast as possible.
The price is: the initial team members will work very hard. One person has to be the leader of three people, working hard day and night, and sleeping in the company for many days. This was once a norm in the early days of the industry's development.
It's just that Lin You frowned after hearing this, and immediately shook his head to express his rejection.
Seriously introduced Yunmeng's working hours to Luo Tian, clearly opposed the workplace culture of working overtime, and asked him to build up the team almost before starting to work, don't be too impatient.
The current Yunmeng fully has this leeway.
Besides, the current live broadcast platform has long since ended the initial stage of staking land and fiercely competing for time. It is completely meaningless to be in such a hurry.
After that day, Luo Tian started to run around, every day he was either poaching or on the way to poach people.
"How is it? The formation of the team went smoothly?" Lin You asked.
"Very smoothly!" Luo Tian nodded again and again, "Most of the old friends will come when they hear the word Yunmeng, and they are already going through the resignation procedures. can also join in.”
"Aren't there restrictions like non-compete agreements?" Lin You asked curiously.
"No, in the live broadcast industry, the restrictions are basically on the host, and there are very few restrictions on the staff. There were some when the competition was fierce in the early days, but now the industry has long since stabilized. Among several platforms, except for the top A few positions, ordinary employee turnover, are very common."
While explaining to Lin You, Luo Tian also complained in his heart: I will not go after those who have higher positions than me...
Lin You chatted with Luo Tian for a while, fully affirming his work achievements, and after listening to his arrangements and ideas for the next work for a while, he sent him away again.

Next are Qin Songyun and Fan Rui.
This is also today's highlight: the development plan for the new game "Battlefield".
Qin Songyun and Fan Rui had been prepared for a long time, and each sat down with a stack of materials.
Qin Songyun copied a copy of the information in his hand and handed it to Lin You.
Then get straight to the point: "We screened suitable historical battles based on your request last week, but encountered a problem."
"What's the problem?" Lin You stopped flipping through the files.
"Boss, your request is: to avoid wars within 100 years as much as possible. However, we found that the weapons used in wars 100 years ago were very different from those used now, and our standard [Shooting Proficiency] skill package does not include These old antiques."
"This." Lin You didn't care, "Then we won't give them skills."
"Ah?" Qin Songyun and Fan Rui were a little dumbfounded, "Then the player got an antique gun from the last century, not to mention whether they can shoot accurately, many people may not even be able to shoot?"
"Or like "Quick Chase", you must first clear the single-player teaching mode, learn how to use these weapons, and then open the online matching mode?" Fan Rui tried to understand Lin You's thinking.
"No, no, you will be wrong." Lin You shook his head again and again.
"Quick Chase" has proved that [clearing the single-player game and then opening the online] is a bad attempt, and it will naturally not be done in the future.
"The online mode must be unconditionally open, especially because "Battlefield" focuses on player confrontation, so it is not possible to match players with the game and set up any obstacles." Lin You explained.
"What I mean is that when the player unlocks the weapon, the method of using the firearm is directly passed on to the player in the form of [skill]. But this [skill] only includes the most basic method of use. How to use the specific advanced method? In order to be able to play accurately, players need to explore by themselves.”
"Then the skill packs for these old antique guns..." Qin Songyun looked at Lin You. He knew that the boss was with the army and seemed to have a strong relationship.
"Ah, this." Looking at Qin Songyun's eyes, Lin You felt a little headache.
When he and He Peng went to gain knowledge, they experienced all modern weapons, and the oldest one was only thirty or so years old.
As for the 100-year-old antiques mentioned by Qin Songyun, let alone the warehouses of the army, you may not be able to find them in Africa...
I really want to find it, but I'm afraid I have to go to some military museums, or overseas private collectors.
And as soon as this question was raised, Lin You immediately thought: antique firearms are still a small problem, and the real problem is those antique vehicles!
Ancient tanks, biplane propeller fighters, and even Zeppelin airships, these things seem to be more troublesome than each other.
Even then, there were hussars who actually fought on horseback!
What are these things?
