Chapter 011 The style is wrong
After returning to the Chen Group headquarters, it was almost afternoon.
Chen She got out of the business car and was about to return to his CEO's office when he suddenly realized something was wrong and stopped.
Zhang Sirui was a little surprised: "Mr. Chen, what's wrong?"
Chen She looked at the time on his bracelet and confirmed that today was Saturday.
The moment he returned to the Chen Group, he did not feel anything strange. The factory was still bustling with activity, and everything was the same as it had been two days before.
But he then realized that this was the biggest problem.
Why are all employees still working as usual even though it is the weekend?
I remembered that there is no such thing as rest days for the Chen Group!
Because the highest goal of all resistance fighters is to make money and accumulate military funds, these people voluntarily work more than ten hours a day and strive to create the most profits for the company.
Because only when the company makes money can it buy better weapons and equipment, and only with weapons and equipment can it go to war with the big capitalists.
Therefore, even on weekends and late at night, these resistance fighters are always working in full swing, whether it is the foundry or the Mewtwo R&D department.
After realizing this problem, Chen She could no longer remain calm.
He must find a way to stop this evil trend!
Otherwise, all the rebels in the company are working desperately, and Chen She only relies on his own strength. How can he ensure that the company makes less money?
With the power of unity, it is possible to turn decay into magic. Chen She wanted to slow down the speed of the resistance army making money with just a few ideas, which was not safe enough.
Chen She really wanted to call all the responsible persons over right now and ask them to stop any form of overtime work immediately.
But he still lacks a convincing enough reason.
Therefore, Chen She temporarily put the matter aside and planned to think of the most convincing reason first. He would wait until the regular meeting of the responsible persons on Monday to use the method of deception to implement the matter.
…
…
Monday, February 10th.
This was a regular meeting of the heads of the Chen Group with a normal style.
The heads of each department still report on the work completion status of each department as usual.
Lin Luxi, who was promoted by Chen She to become the head of the Super Dream R&D department last week, also attended the meeting. But it was her first time to attend such an occasion, and she was inevitably a little nervous when she met with many superiors of the resistance army.
In fact, Chen She was always surprised that a girl like Lin Luxi, who looked so soft and cute, was also a member of the resistance army. It must be said that one cannot judge a person by his appearance. There are many talented people in the resistance army, and there are all kinds of people.
Chen She listened carefully to the reports from the responsible persons and gained a comprehensive understanding of the current situation of the Chen Group.
Lishan Technology has been successfully registered, and all personnel in the Chen Group who are related to the development of Mewtwo have been transferred to Lishan Technology.
However, the Mewtwo of "Desperate Struggle" is still under the charge of Chen Group, which means that "Embers of Desolation" will be the first Mewtwo of Lishan Technology Group.
Over at the Super Dream Experience Store, the renovation work was going on smoothly. Several resistance fighters were watching, but no gangsters dared to cause trouble.
According to the original plan, the experience store will be completed and officially opened by the end of the month.
The preparations for "Ember of the Dead" have been completed, and we will start rapid development from this week. The simple trial version will be completed at the end of this month and put in the experience store to check player feedback.
As for the Chen Group's original OEM business, its production capacity is gradually being restored.
The previous robbery of Fujido Group's supplies gave Chen Group a chance to catch their breath. So far, Fujido Group has not suspected Chen Group.
Although the Fujido Group was very angry about the loss of this batch of supplies, they could not find a target to retaliate against, so they had to give up for the time being.
After listening to these reports, Chen She felt slightly relieved.
Ever since he learned of his identity as the leader of the resistance army, Chen She often felt uneasy, as if the troops of the corporate coalition would surround the Chen Group headquarters in the next second and kill him on the spot.
Hearing that everything was still under his control for the time being, Chen She felt a little safer.
After gradually adapting to his identity and gaining a comprehensive understanding of the current situation, Chen She also began to try to influence the responsible persons.
After the main agenda was discussed, Chen She knocked on the table lightly and said, "There is one thing that requires your cooperation."
"I have decided to cancel all overtime in the company starting this week."
"After 7pm, as well as on Saturdays and Sundays, as normal rest time, in principle, no department is allowed to work overtime unless there is an emergency that threatens the survival of the company."
As soon as these words were spoken, the responsible persons all showed confused and bewildered expressions on their faces.
Zhang Sirui was the first to raise his hand to object: "Mr. Chen, I don't think this is appropriate. Brothers, oh no, the employees won't agree with it either!"
Zhao Zhen also nodded: "Mr. Chen, it seems that this is not necessary?"
Chen She knew very well what they were thinking.
The rebels, from top to bottom, are working hard because they all have the ultimate goal of overthrowing the big chaebols. Reducing working hours means cutting company profits, and cutting company profits means cutting the rebels' military spending.
Not to mention those in charge, even ordinary resistance fighters would not agree.
Because even if they were allowed to leave work early, they would have nothing to do.
You can't just go out and do something with a gun after get off work, right?
It is absolutely impossible to let these people rest in peace or engage in some entertainment activities.
However, since Chen She brought it up at the meeting, he had obviously thought of his excuses in advance.
He looked at the people in charge and said, "I think that the long working hours have seriously affected everyone's energy, making daily training seriously insufficient!"
"If this continues, everyone's physical fitness will decline, and some may even develop occupational diseases. Without a healthy body and superb fighting skills, how can we achieve our goals?"
“So, I think we should cut down on working hours and put the saved time into simulation training!”
The responsible persons looked at each other, unable to find a suitable reason to refute for a moment, and even felt that what Mr. Chen said made sense.
The resistance fighters' hard work will indeed reduce their training time to a certain extent.
If Chen She used other reasons to cut working hours, it would be equivalent to cutting the military budget of the rebels, and no one would agree.
But now this statement actually still has the ultimate goal of overthrowing the big consortium, hoping to increase the training time of the resistance fighters and enhance the combat effectiveness of the resistance.
The reason is very good.
Zhao Zhen hesitated for a moment and said, "But Mr. Chen, our OEM business is gradually recovering, and we have to work a lot to ensure that we can meet the order requirements. If we follow the normal working hours, we may have to give up some orders, which will have a great impact on the company's profits."
Chen She was well prepared for this.
"The profit margins in the OEM business are slim, and earning these profits requires sacrificing a lot of training time, which is not worth it."
"We have to carry out industrial transformation and gradually shift from the OEM business with relatively low profit margins to the Super Dream business with high profit margins. As long as Super Dream can succeed, this profit can be made up quickly."
Zhao Zhen and Zhang Sirui looked at each other, confirmed each other's thoughts, and were finally convinced by Chen She.
"Okay, Mr. Chen, we will make it clear to our employees. In the future, outside of normal working hours, we will ask everyone to focus more on the simulation training of "Desperate Battle"."
Chen She was very satisfied after successfully fooling the responsible persons again.
Of course, there are still hidden dangers. Although the resistance fighters no longer work overtime, they will continue to train in "Desperate Struggle" in their spare time.
While improving their combat skills, it will also stimulate their fighting will.
Chen She is also prepared for this, because the trial version of "Embers of Demise" can be developed and completed before the end of the month.
By then, Chen She will completely replace "Battle of the End" with "The Embers Are Going Out".
At that time, it can not only reduce the company's profits but also suppress the fighting will of the rebels, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Chen She nodded with satisfaction: "Then let's adjourn the meeting!"
"Lin Luxi, come with me to the Mewtwo R&D department to finalize the new Mewtwo."
…
After arriving at Mewtwo's R&D department, Chen She first took a look at the preparations for Mewtwo: The Last Embers.
In the Super Dream Editor, the overall framework has been almost completed, and some basic resources are also being produced.
It is definitely impossible to produce the entire map including the imperial city in the trial part. In Chen She’s plan, only the outer wall of the imperial city needs to be produced.
The entire trial content starts from the settlement where the player is born and ends at the walls of the imperial city.
However, after Chen She looked at the completed Mewtwo resources, he frowned.
Because the prototype of these resources was far from what he had imagined!
Take the role that players play in Mewtwo as an example.
The character created by Mewtwo's R&D department is quite beautiful, with a tall stature, firm eyes, and a sword in his hand. At first glance, he looks like a handsome and chivalrous hero.
The existing concept drafts of the imperial city walls are all bright and beautiful. The soldiers on the walls are well-equipped and heroic, and the captain of the guards' temperament is no less than that of the protagonist.
This obviously did not meet Chen She's expectations at all.
She is so good-looking that it is easy to deceive some people who are unaware of the truth!
But this can't be blamed on the people released by Lin Luxi and Chaomengyan. After all, Chen She only briefly explained the background of the story at the time, and did not give them a very clear resource demand plan.
When Chen She was conceiving this super dream, he certainly had a picture in his mind, but just saying it verbally could not convey this picture to Lin Luxi.
Lin Luxi can only produce according to his own understanding.
According to this story background, the player has to enter the imperial city to save and defend the sacred fire and save the people of the world. This is obviously the image of a knight.
Lin Luxi misunderstood and it is understandable .
Fortunately, this image is still just a prototype and has not been further developed. Chen She immediately asked Lin Luxi to stop before it was too late!
"It's my fault. I didn't clearly explain the art style of this Mewtwo before."
"This state is definitely not in line with the spirit of this Mewtwo. I hope you can make the characters and scenes as ugly as possible, the kind of real ugliness. The uglier and more real the better, understand?"
"It would be best if it could scare a child to tears at the mere sight of it."
