Chapter 482 He Was Just an Otaku!
Before meeting Chen Dong, Yang Huan couldn't remember what this guy looked like.

But as soon as I saw him, I recognized him at a glance.

The reason is simple, this guy's clothes are still exactly the same as yesterday, and he looks like a technical nerd.

Especially the slightly Shamat style hairstyle, very joyful.

But in his own opinion, it seems that such a hairstyle is very cool, very special, and very satisfying.

The place where the two met was in the senior conference room of the headquarters office of WeChat Research Institute.

In addition to Yang Huan, Zhuang Zicheng, Palmer Larch and other core executives of the institute were present at the meeting.

This makes the meeting feel a bit like an interview.

"I heard that you want to see me?" Yang Huan looked at him and asked with a smile.

Chen Dong looked at the strangers around, swallowed his saliva, nodded and hummed.

He looked a little uncomfortable.

"If necessary, we can talk outside!" Yang Huan suggested.

Unexpectedly, Chen Dong shook his head vigorously and took a deep breath to calm himself down.

"It's okay, I..."

Looking at Yang Huan's encouraging eyes, Chen Dong finally mustered up his courage.

"I wanted to say to you personally, I'm sorry."

"Why?" Yang Huan felt very strange.

There must be a reason for an apology for no reason, right?

Is it because I'm more handsome?
Chen Dong tilted his head, "Because of what happened yesterday, so..."

"That's not your problem, and..." Yang Huan curled his lips, "I didn't take it to heart at all."

But the young man who killed Matt looked at Yang Huan stubbornly, "No matter what, I still have to apologize."

"Whatever you want!" Yang Huan said with a smile.

If others want to apologize, you can't refuse to accept it yourself, right?
"Okay, now that you've apologized too, let's get down to business, shall we?"

"Ok!"

Chen Dong walked to the seat that Zhuang Zicheng pointed out to him when he entered the door just now and sat down.

"I want to know, why do you say that our two products are excellent, but we are still far away from success, and the direction is wrong?" Yang Huan shook a document in his hand.

It records the valuable opinions left by many guests who experienced on-site yesterday.

Among them, what everyone valued the most was Chen Dong's opinion.

Chen Dong was a little timid, "I don't have any other intentions, I just said it a bit directly."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help laughing.

Yang Huan also chuckled, "It's okay, our company advocates freedom of speech, anyone can speak, you can just talk about your thoughts."

Chen Dong took another look at Yang Huan, and found that the latter did not intend to blame him, so he was sure.

"I was outside the WeChat exhibition area yesterday, and I noticed that among the people who visited the WeChat exhibition area, at least six out of ten people were engaged in game-related industries, and the experience groups you invited were [-] to [-]% developers from the game industry."

Yang Huan, Zhuang Zicheng and everyone present were a little surprised.

This guy's eyes are too sharp, right?
Can this be found?
With this observation ability alone, Yang Huan wouldn't believe this guy if he said he wasn't a talent!

"Yes, keep talking!" Yang Huan admitted frankly.

"To put it a little exaggeratedly, I may be the first person in China to be interested in virtual reality technology and engage in research."

Yang Huan didn't believe this.

It seems that this guy is only in his early twenties, how can he be said to be the earliest?

Could it be that he started at the age of ten?

However, thinking about Zhuang Zicheng, Yang Huan felt that it was possible!
"I'll take the 3D technology that everyone is familiar with now. It took about 15 years from maturity to popularization. At the beginning, I started to make efforts in games, and then gradually entered other fields such as movies and design."

"So, how long will it take for virtual reality and augmented reality?"

In fact, this issue has also been discussed by the senior executives of WeChat Research Institute, and it has also appeared in the ecosystem planning of WeChat Research Institute, especially in the field of games, which has been listed as the top priority.

"Keep talking!" Yang Huan also became a little serious.

He found that Chen Dong was not the kind of person who talked nonsense, he had something to say.

"I've read some information. Your hardware is not too advanced. In the eyes of some top international companies, it doesn't even have much technical content. It's just a preemptive opportunity. Once you give them time to react and your R&D stops, they can catch up anytime, anywhere."

What Chen Dong said was a bit serious, but it was definitely not alarmist.

"Therefore, we must grasp the advantages of seizing the opportunity, and seize the market quickly before other manufacturers react. The most critical game market is the first to bear the brunt!"

Yang Huan nodded and smiled when he heard this, "Well said, continue!"

Many people present couldn't stop nodding, this guy is still very good!
"When it comes to games, I have to mention one thing, and that is WeChat's biggest weakness!"

Chen Dong scanned the crowd before continuing.

"There is no doubt that WeChat is the most profitable game developer in the world. Both WeChat games and the WeChat game platform are quite profitable projects. Especially in the past year, the number of smartphone users around the world has exploded, and the mobile game market has increased fivefold. It is said that the revenue of WeChat games alone has exceeded 2000 million pounds a day!"

When he said this, Chen Dong couldn't help but glanced at Young Master Huan again, his eyes were filled with admiration.

You know, among the ten most profitable games of Apple, WeChat games occupy eight seats.

A day is 2000 million pounds, how much is a year?
It's scary just thinking about it!

And the creativity and production of these games are all written by Master Huan!
To put it bluntly, Master Huan is definitely a god-like figure in the hearts of game lovers all over the world!

Although in the past six months or so, Master Huan has gradually faded out of game development, WeChat games are snowballing and have become a hall-level company in the global game field.

Two years ago, everyone was shocked that WeChat games surpassed Nintendo and Blizzard.

But now, the situation is reversed. If it does not surpass Nintendo and Blizzard, it will be shocking!
As a game lover, Chen Dong also admired Young Master Huan.

"But the biggest weakness and weakness of WeChat is that all your games are mobile games, but to promote virtual reality headsets, you must rely on console games and PC games."

When he said this, Chen Dong had a rare play of humor.

"I don't think anyone would be that stupid to play a game with a brick-and-mortar VR headset on a thin phone?"

All the people present were imagining this scene in secret, and they were all amused in the end.

"Well said!" Yang Huan couldn't stop nodding.

Chen Dong obviously still didn't finish his sentence. After thanking Master Huan for his appreciation, he continued to express his opinion.

"At the exhibition, the appearance of virtual reality helmets and augmented reality glasses became the biggest highlight, attracting the attention of almost all enthusiasts around the world. Many media, including American authoritative newspapers, have reported on it. This can certainly help WeChat Research Institute become a hit, but there are also hidden risks behind it."

Everyone nodded in unison again.

In a crisis, there is an opportunity.

The attention and bookings at the exhibition are booming, which is certainly a development opportunity, but it is also a risk and a challenge.

"In terms of hardware, neither of the two new products has made much technological breakthrough. Although the WeChat Research Institute has applied for patents on many key nodes, it has not yet formed a strong technical barrier and cannot stop large international companies."

"Especially console game manufacturers like Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo. They already have a fairly mature ecosystem in the field of console games. Once they make efforts in this field, the products they launch will be more competitive. By that time, we will regret it too late!"

Yang Huan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and looked at Zhuang Zicheng.

"Zicheng, you still underestimated him!"

Zhuang Zicheng also nodded, apparently acknowledging his brother-in-law's evaluation of Chen Dong.

"Chen Dong, according to what you said, what should we do?" Yang Huan asked.

Chen Dong ignored the conversation between Yang Huan and Zhuang Zicheng, but thought about it carefully.

"I think there's only one option right now."

"Let's hear it!" Yang Huan asked with interest.

"Over the past few years, the game consoles launched by Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo have obviously provided rich social elements, but these game console manufacturers have done a mess in the social field, but they refused to give up."

"The reason is very simple. They are very aware that the added value generated by the game platform is too amazing, such as the interaction between players, but this part of the value is received by social media for free, and has nothing to do with them. Therefore, they are not reconciled to the benefits and value they have worked so hard to be taken up by social media. So they know that they have done a bad job, but they still have to do it."

"WeChat is best at social networking, and has accumulated amazing popularity and experience in the field of mobile games. It has done a better job in combining games and social networking. The only shortcoming is that it does not have its own console and PC game platform, and this is precisely the most necessary element to promote virtual reality headsets."

"Therefore, WeChat has no choice but to acquire or invest in a game console company or a game platform company, transforming it into a family entertainment center with social attributes that can replace PCs and form its own ecosystem."

After a pause, Chen Dong urged with a sense of crisis: "And it must be fast, time is life!"

Yang Huan couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and kept clapping his hands.

Gradually, Zhuang Zicheng and others also applauded.

I have to say that this technical nerd is really a talent, with a sharp eye!
What he said seems to be nothing, but everyone knows that there are so many big names in the WeChat Research Institute, haven't they been exploring and preparing for these things for more than half a year?

If he's an executive at a company, it's not worth the fuss.

The strange thing is that he is just an otaku!
This is too subversive!

Chen Dong did not expect that his long speech would receive such applause, which instead made him a little at a loss and seemed restless.

Seeing his appearance like this, Yang Huan felt amused in his heart.

This is what an otaku should look like!

But I also made a decision in my heart, this guy has to try his best to keep him!

"Chen Dong, what you said is quite good. If I had heard it half a year ago, I would have been enlightened."

Chen Dong was overjoyed at first when he heard it, but was soon taken aback.

Why did I feel enlightened when I heard it half a year ago?

Don't you hear it now?

What do these words mean?
After all, Chen Dong was a smart man, and soon realized the problem.

"Master Huan, did you think of this layer half a year ago? And you have already started the layout in advance?"

This time, his face was full of shock!
Fortunately, just now he thought how advanced his thinking was, and he felt like everyone was sleeping and I was only awake.

But now, he found himself a little too self-righteous.

There are so many talents in the WeChat Research Institute, so many great talents, are they all decorations?
Could it be that others can't think of the problems that one can think of?
Thinking back again, what I just said just now was like playing tricks in front of Guan Gong!
shame!
I am so ashamed!
