.
From his previous life to this life, Shi Lei had never been a person who was willing to suffer a loss!
It seemed like Fantasy Technology had suffered a huge loss in the licensing agreement signed with Shuangqing City. Shi Lei had made a big deal that was at a loss.
In fact, unless there was a conspiracy, Shi Lei would never do a losing deal!
Shuangqing City seemed to have obtained the authorization of Fantasy Technology's behavioral motion capture program at a very low price.
But in reality, did Shi Lei really suffer a loss?
Of course not!
First of all, Shuangqing City's public safety monitoring system, road monitoring system, secret security monitoring system, and more than 1.6 million cameras were all under Shi Lei's control.
Shi Lei had designed a hidden system backdoor in the behavioral motion capture program. Izur had control of it at any time and place. It was responsible for providing the behavioral motion capture program analysis for more than 1.6 million cameras.
In other words, Shi Lei had control of all the cameras through Izur.
Secondly, Shi Lei had used the licensing fee of the behavioral motion capture program in exchange for Shuangqing City's tax-free agreement with Dream Entertainment. He had successfully connected Dream Entertainment with the Shuangqing government.
Now, Dream Entertainment was facing the Internet Entertainment Review Department's violation of trade secrets. However, the Shuangqing government did not stand up for them. Instead, they were thinking about the agreement with Fantasy Technology.
To be honest, Shi Lei was quite depressed. Originally, Shi Lei thought that with the relationship between Dream Entertainment and the Shuangqing government, the Shuangqing government would help take care of the Internet Entertainment Review Department's review.
Although the accusation from Central TV News was a little too big, the Shuangqing government would definitely be able to take it.
Unfortunately, they did not take it!
The Shuangqing government chose to protect themselves and let Dream Entertainment face the Internet Entertainment Review Department alone.
The Shuangqing government thought that Dream Entertainment would give in. This was a normal thought.
In Xia Xia, the Internet Entertainment Review Department represented the ultimate power in the online entertainment industry.
However, Shi Lei did not play by the rules. Or in the eyes of the outside world, Mirui Technology's board of directors was the abnormal type. They actually announced that all of Mirui Technology's wholly-owned subsidiaries would withdraw from Xia Xia. Wasn't this nonsense?
In the online world, Tencent was the happiest about Dream Entertainment's decision to withdraw its investment from Xia Xia.
Dream Entertainment had ruthlessly suppressed Penguin Company in the online gaming industry. Penguin Company had no way to retaliate.
Ma Huateng had even considered adjusting Penguin's development direction and reducing its investment in online games to avoid being controlled by Dream Entertainment.
Fortunately, Ma Huateng had used Dream Entertainment to destroy it. Originally, it was a good piece of news to promote Dream Entertainment, but after being used by Ma Huateng, it became the best weapon to blacken Dream Entertainment.
The selling point of the Hero's World, the Somatosensory Operating System, had also become the biggest flaw of the Hero's World. This was because the Somatosensory Operating System was suspected of endangering public safety.
Just as Ma Huateng had expected, this huge accusation directly suppressed the Brave World and implicated Dream Entertainment, forcing them to announce their withdrawal from Xia Xia.
As long as Dream Entertainment left Mr. Xia, Mr. Xia's territory would once again belong to Penguin Corporation!
Big Penguin Headquarters, Ma Huateng's office. Ma Huateng crossed his legs, and the proud expression on his face couldn't be concealed.
A beautiful female secretary stood opposite Ma Huateng and smiled coquettishly. "Congratulations, Chairman Ma!"
Ma Huateng laughed. "Xiao Li, take care of your work. We'll go shopping in the afternoon.
What watch did you say you wanted to buy last time?
We'll go buy it in the afternoon! "
Xiao Li immediately walked to Ma Huateng's side and grabbed his arm. She said coquettishly, "Chairman Ma, you're the best!"
As the saying went, people were in high spirits when faced with happy events. Ma Huateng hadn't played games with his secretary for a few days. Today, when he received the good news from Dream Entertainment, he actually felt impatient.
Shuangqing City, Jingya Court.
Shi Lei had just ended his call with Bai Qiang when Shuangqing City's First Deputy Mayor, Meng Xun, called. Looking at the caller ID on his phone screen, Shi Lei grinned silently and pressed the answer button.
"Hello, Mayor Meng!" Shi Lei greeted politely.
Meng Xun's tone was not very friendly. "I'm not good at all!
Chairman Shi, it's rumored that all of Mirui Technology's wholly-owned subsidiaries will gradually withdraw from Shuangqing City? "
"Mayor Meng, that's not a rumor. It's a fact." Shi Lei corrected Meng Xun's words.
Meng Xun pretended not to know about the Internet Entertainment Review Department and pretended to be surprised. "Chairman Shi, what's going on?
Whether it's Dream Entertainment, Fantasy Technology, or Yumo Medical Sciences, aren't they all developing well in Shuangqing City?
Why are they withdrawing from Shuangqing City? "
Shi Lei pursed his lips and cursed in his heart. Then, he told Meng Xun about the Internet Entertainment Review Department. After that, Shi Lei said gloomily, "Mayor Meng, what do you think we should do?
The Somatosensory Operating System is our company's core trade secret. How can we hand it over for review? "
On the other end of the phone, Meng Xun also frowned. Meng Xun immediately felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
Although Meng Xun had never been in contact with the Internet Entertainment Review Department's work, it was impossible for them to ask a company to hand over its core trade secret technology.
"It seems that someone is pushing this matter behind the scenes.
However, the Internet Entertainment Review Department is also on the policy high ground. Dream Entertainment's Somatosensory Operating System does have some hidden dangers. "Meng Xun had his concerns, which was why Shuangqing City did not stand up for Dream Entertainment immediately.
The mayor of Shuangqing City was Wang Hong. Recently, he had been abroad inspecting friendly cities. The overall affairs of Shuangqing City had been handed over to Meng Xun to handle.
Meng Xun dared not risk his political career to fight against the Internet Entertainment Review Department for Dream Entertainment.
"Brother Shi, I'm sorry. I'm too busy. I didn't know about this at all.
What are those idiots at the Internet Entertainment Review Department trying to do? Why would they want Dream Entertainment's core technology? Isn't this nonsense? "
Meng Xun changed the way he addressed Shi Lei. First, he expressed that he did not know about this matter. Regardless of whether he knew about it or not, he had to at least show an attitude. Then, he criticized the Internet Entertainment Review Department and tried to get closer to Shi Lei.
"Brother Shi, regarding the Internet Entertainment Review Department's reasoning, will the Hero's World that you developed cause such an outcome?
For example, are the assassins in the Hero's World that powerful in reality? "Meng Xun asked the key question.
If the Hero's World's Somatosensory Operating System did not cause too serious of a consequence, Meng Xun planned to help Dream Entertainment get through this difficult time.
If it was really as the Internet Entertainment Review Department said, the Hero's World's Somatosensory Operating System could train an ordinary player into a real assassin character. Meng Xun did not want to get involved in this mess.
Xia Xia's higher-ups placed great importance on public safety. If the Hero's World really had the ability to destroy public safety, then no one would be able to protect it!
How could Shi Lei not know about Xia Xia's policy?
When developing the Hero's World's Somatosensory Operating System, Shi Lei had set strict restrictions in the design of the visual hypnosis system's specific scope of application. The only things that could be increased in the Hero's World were bare-handed abilities. Furthermore, they were ordinary non-lethal abilities.
Whenever a weapon was used, the visual hypnosis system would automatically shift and hypnotize the player's senses, making it impossible for the player to accurately inherit the experience in the Hero's World.
The visual hypnosis system's initial design was to prevent interference!
"Old Brother Meng, do you think it's possible?
If the Hero's World had such magical powers, why would I use it to develop games?
You know my relationship with Rongcheng Military District, right?
If I sell this system to Rongcheng Military District, wouldn't I be rich? "Shi Lei pretended to complain. He also changed the way he addressed Meng Xun and accepted his invitation.
How much would the Somatosensory Operating System be worth if he sold it to Rongcheng Military District?
Let alone 10 billion or 20 billion, even 100 million or 200 million would be rejected by Rongcheng Military District.
If he used the Somatosensory Operating System to develop the Hero's World, he would be able to earn billions in a year. Why would Shi Lei be so stupid as to sell it to Rongcheng Military District?
Unfortunately, Meng Xun did not know this logic!
After receiving an affirmative answer from Shi Lei, Meng Xun's mind became active. "Old Brother Shi, are you saying that the Hero's World's Somatosensory Operating System won't cause those terrible things that the CCTV news and the Internet Entertainment Review Department announced?"
"Yes!
That's right!
Is the Internet Entertainment Review Department's staff full of sh * t for brains?
Why would they think of those unreliable possibilities? "Shi Lei snorted.
"Old Brother Shi, don't be angry. Who doesn't make mistakes?
This matter is not the Internet Entertainment Review Department's fault. It's all the CCTV news' misdirection.
Old Brother Shi, don't worry. I'll personally talk to the Internet Entertainment Review Department and ask them to take back those messy reviews.
However, Old Brother Shi, Dream Entertainment has to cooperate with the officials and explain to all the players and media that the Hero's World will not cause any serious social impact. "
Meng Xun said in a serious tone, indicating that the Shuangqing government would take responsibility for this matter.
Shi Lei also breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, Shi Lei did not plan to move the data, nor did he plan to withdraw from the Xia's World. The Xia's World had a population of 1.3 billion. How could Shi Lei give up on such a huge market?
It's not like his head was caught in the door!
However, he still had to adjust his attitude!
"Old Brother Meng, there's no need to trouble yourself. Mirui Technology has already made the decision to withdraw from the Xia's World.
Today, the Internet Entertainment Review Department jumped out. Who knows what the Bureau of Investigation or the Ministry of State Security will come out tomorrow.
Dream Entertainment can't afford to be tossed around! "Shi Lei said indifferently.
Meng Xun laughed and replied, "Old Brother Shi, think about it!
Shuangqing City has given Dream Entertainment so many preferential policies. Staying in Shuangqing City has its benefits too!
Besides, Old Brother, I heard that you have a confidante in Shuangqing University. You can't just leave her behind and run away, right? "
"This …" Shi Lei showed just the right amount of hesitation.
"Old Brother, I'll give you a personal benefit. One of Shuangqing University's vice presidents is retiring. I can let you arrange it.
What do you think? Old Brother is sincere, right? "Meng Xun promised Shi Lei.
Li Zhiyue's father, Li Kunning, was a professor of mechanical and electronic engineering at Shuangqing University's Academy of Engineering. Although he had the title of a professor, he did not have any official position.
Meng Xun's intention was to give the position of vice president to Li Kunning and create an opportunity for Shi Lei.
This was a roundabout way to save the country by besieging Wei to save the Zhao. He wanted to use Li Zhiyue to retain Shi Lei.
Shi Lei had not expected Meng Xun to have such a plan!
"The vice president of the Academy of Engineering?
If that's the case, maybe … "Shi Lei thought of something. Maybe he could use the position of vice president to establish a good relationship with Li Kunning.
"Old Brother Meng, to be honest, I'm very tempted by this offer.
However, you really think too highly of me. I'm just a small shareholder in Mirui Technology. I only have 9% of the shares. I can't influence the decision of the Mirui Technology's board of directors. "Shi Lei once again put on airs.
Meng Xun thought for a moment and said unwillingly, "Old Brother, I hope you can try your best to get this done. Shuangqing's government can immediately contact the Internet Entertainment Review Department.
As long as this matter is done well, old Brother, you can also please your confidante, right? "
"Okay!
Old Brother Meng, I have to say that you're really considerate! "
Shi Lei pretended to be moved by Meng Xun. "However, old Brother Meng, I'll say this first. If there's no way to salvage the situation, there's nothing I can do!"
"Do your best!" Meng Xun said quickly.
"Mm!
I'll do my best! "Shi Lei smiled. He had already gotten the answer he wanted …
