The diva and I cross each other

Chapter 116 Wenwen, not astringent enough!

In the afternoon, John, his translator, Luo Ming and Rong Mu sat in the Burning Light Conference Room again.

Rong Mu's English is rubbish, and he only passed Level 4 in his junior year.

It has been more than a year, and I have long forgotten about it.

On the contrary, Luo Ming's English was not bad and he could understand what John was saying without the need for a translator.

This is mainly due to the third company he worked for in his previous life, which was the company that provided the voice assistant for DaMi Auto.

This company’s Da Mi is the major shareholder, but the CEO is not from Da Mi, but from Lao America. It is said that he was invited from OpenAI, and Da Mi’s Xiao Ai classmate did later connect to OpenAI’s ChatGPT. This It can be regarded as a hammer on the origin of the company's CEO from the side.

Luo Ming didn't care where Boss came from. He only cared about one thing at that time, and that was how to make money.

If this company hadn't given him too much, Luo Ming wouldn't have come.

After all, it is very difficult for a person to jump out of his comfort zone and start working hard again.

The gaming industry is a comfort zone for Luo Ming, and AI technology and voice assistants are new challenges.

Not to mention that the boss is not Chinese yet, so work reports and other matters must be given in English.

Luo Ming remembers that he worked hard on English in his first year of employment. At least in terms of spoken English, Luo Ming was able to communicate normally with foreigners.

Unexpectedly, he could still use English in his next life, which made Luo Ming feel that his efforts were not in vain.

"Mr. Luo, Mr. Rong, I have conveyed your intentions to the boss. Our boss said that if you do not sell D encryption, it is okay to cooperate with us on a share basis, but the share rate will not be too high."

"What is the ratio given by your company?" Rong Mu asked after listening to Luo Ming's translation.

"1%."

"This is impossible. This ratio is too low and we cannot accept it." Before Rong Mu could say anything, Luo Ming shot back.

"You Chinese people are very particular about starting your business and paying your price when you get there. I have told you my price, and you can also tell me your price."

Luo Ming and Rong Mu looked at each other with helplessness in their eyes.

There is no doubt that they are the weak side in this negotiation. Facing a large platform like Steam, they have no countermeasures. If they want to cooperate, they can only follow their wishes.

"The share we expect here is 5%." Rong Mu gave his quotation.

John smiled after hearing what the translator said. Everything was said correctly by Bilson.

The next step is to negotiate according to the share ratio set by Bilson.

Two hours later, the two sides reached a consensus.

Luo Ming's D algorithm takes a commission of 2% on games produced and purchased by Steam. At the same time, Steam will not restrict Luo Ming from selling the algorithm to other game companies, and there will not be any additional fees for games equipped with this algorithm. Review and even provide supporting services.

In addition, Steam will give "Plants vs. Zombies" five special sales and two home page recommendations.

In other words, in 2014, "Plants vs. Zombies" will be included in Steam's Spring Festival Sale, Summer Sale, Halloween Sale, Autumn Sale and Christmas Sale.

As for the recommendations on the main page, Zhuoguang can contact the steam platform at any time to request the recommendations.

Luo Ming did not hesitate to choose to recommend it now.

In the past two days, as the New Year holiday abroad has gradually come to an end, the popularity of "Plants vs. Zombies" has also declined, and the daily sales volume has dropped below 5.

At this time, it’s time to let Steam help with a wave of advertising to increase the popularity of “Plants vs. Zombies” and boost sales.

Naturally, John agreed immediately.

The two parties have reached an agreement, and then it is up to the lawyers of both parties to draft the contract.

After John finished his work, he seemed much more relaxed. He asked Luo Ming and Rong Mu with interest: "Mr. Luo, Mr. Rong, are you from this city?"

"Mr. John means that your hometown is in this city?"

"Yes."

"I'm not, he is." Luo Ming pointed at Rong Mu and said.

"Mr. Rong, do you know any ancient buildings in Bingzhou worth visiting? I'm very interested in this aspect."

"Ancient building? Does Jin Temple count?" Rong Mu said with some uncertainty.

"Jinci?"

"Yes, when you talk about ancient buildings, the first thing that comes to my mind is the Jinci Temple, which contains the Notre Dame Hall, Yunzhu Feiliang, and the Xian Hall.

In addition to Jinci Temple in Bingzhou, there are also Chunyang Palace and Shuangta Temple. Old Bingzhou people may call it Yongzuo Temple, but I can't remember the others. "

"That's enough. I don't have much time for a business trip. I only have three days. I'm very satisfied to see so many ancient buildings in three days." John said excitedly after hearing what the translator said.

"Does Mr. John need a guide?" Luo Ming asked.

"No, no, no, I like to experience the beauty of ancient buildings quietly by myself, and I don't want others to disturb me."

"Okay! I wish Mr. John a good time."

John smiled and nodded.

After seeing John off, Luo Ming looked at Rong Mu and said with a hint of ridicule: "Mumu, can you do it? You can't say anything about your hometown?"

"It's not that I can't tell. It's that there are too many ancient buildings in Bingzhou. They are everywhere. In fact, it's not just Bingzhou, it's the same in the whole of Shanxi. Ancient buildings are everywhere?

Not to mention anything else, let’s just talk about your hometown. I remember that when I visited your house, I climbed the mountain to pick sea buckthorn. The Taoist temple I passed by was from the Northern Song Dynasty, the resting pavilion was from the late Ming Dynasty, and there was a fortress built during the Republic of China on the top of the mountain.

There are so many ancient buildings in Shanxi that you won’t be surprised if you see them. Since you won’t be surprised anymore, who would bother to remember them! "

Luo Ming thought about it too.

"Dong dong~ Mr. Luo, Mr. Rong, there is news from Sony." Zhao Ningyuan's knock on the door interrupted Luo Ming's thoughts.

Rong Mu immediately stood up and opened the door, welcoming Zhao Ningyuan in.

"What did Sony say, Senior Brother Zhao?" Rong Mu asked.

"Sony asked us if we were willing to sell Algorithm D." Zhao Ningyuan replied.

Hearing this, Luo Ming and Rong Mu looked at each other with helpless expressions: "It seems that these big companies are all following a routine! First, they asked us if we are willing to sell algorithms to test our attitude, and after confirming how we want to cooperate, Start lowering prices.”

"Then shall we still talk?"

"Let's talk! Sony's ps4 will be released next month. If you don't make money, you won't make it in vain.

Brother Zhao, please tell Sony that we do not intend to sell Algorithm D and only accept sharing cooperation. "

Zhao Ningyuan nodded to express that he understood.

The next day, someone from Sony also came.

The same process was repeated again, as Luo Ming said, the routines on both sides were exactly the same.

However, based on the experience last time, and Luo Ming revealing intentionally or unintentionally that Steam had reached a cooperation with them, Sony was stimulated.

In the end, Sony's share was 3%, one percentage point higher than Steam.

Don’t underestimate this point. You can earn millions of dollars more in a year.

After the D algorithm matter was settled, Luo Ming immediately called Lin Shuwen to report the good news. Lin Shuwen is also very busy these days. After the MV shooting is completed, the album cover, sales channels, and sales sharing must be discussed bit by bit.

Lin Shuwen cannot avoid these things, and Lin Shuwen doesn't want to avoid them. After all, it is her first album, and Lin Shuwen also takes it very seriously.

Lin Shuwen had just finished discussing the album cover and was resting on the sofa with her eyes closed, when Chen Sichu sent her mobile phone over: "Sister Wen, Mr. Luo's phone number."

Lin Shuwen heard this and immediately took the phone and answered the call.

"Hello~" Lin Shuwen's voice was a little lazy, with some bubbles in it, as if she had just fallen asleep.

"Why are you so weak?"

"Today is too tiring."

"A lot of things about the new album?"

"How can I put it! There are no big things, just small things. I never thought that dealing with these messy little things would be more labor-intensive than shooting music videos and recording songs."

"Wenwen, actually you don't have to do everything yourself."

"You have worked so hard, I can't lose to you! You don't want to raise a canary either!"

"I don't mind."

"Well~" Lin Shuwen stretched and let out a comfortable moan.

Today, Lin Shuwen is wearing a white printed shirt and a black leather skirt. Black silk is wrapped around her legs, making her legs look slender.

As she stretched, her slender, white waist was looming.

"Luo Ming, I don't want to be a canary, not even your canary."

"Okay! Then you have to work hard. I got the authorization of Algorithm D today."

"So fast? Did you get one house or two houses?"

"Sony and Steam have reached an agreement."

"When you say that, I feel like I can't do anything anymore. Chu Chu helps me up! I want to work!" After saying that, Lin Shuwen hung up the phone.

After a while, Lin Shuwen and Chen Sichu left the office together.

At this moment, Lin Shuwen was wearing a beige windbreaker with long petal sleeves, and her waist was tied up with a long belt. She looked like a flower waiting to bloom, and there was no trace of the person who had just collapsed on the sofa. Lazy energy.

It was already 9pm when Lin Shuwen got home after a busy day.

Coincidentally, as soon as Lin Shuwen got out of the elevator, she happened to encounter the little girl next door being pushed out by her mother.

"Mom, I'll ask you one last time, are you wrong?"

"I am right!"

"Then you should reflect well outside!" After saying this, the woman nodded to Lin Shuwen and closed the door.

The family opposite and Lin Shuwen moved in front and back.

Both parties watched each other move. Lin Shuwen was already somewhat famous at that time. Perhaps out of curiosity about celebrities, the couple showed great enthusiasm towards Lin Shuwen.

Lin Shuwen was wary at first, but later she confirmed that the couple were good people, so she became less wary and would always say hello when they met.

The man of this couple is from Shanghai and works as a physical education teacher at a nearby junior high school, and the woman is from XJ. You can tell this by looking at their appearance.

Their child is also a bit exotic. The little girl has very big eyes, just like the character in the anime. Lin Shuwen still likes this child.

"Maodou, have you made mom angry again?" Lin Shuwen knelt down and asked.

"I didn't! Aunt Lin"

"Call my sister."

"Okay sister, Aunt Lin, it's not Maodou's fault today. It was the kid who snatched Maodou's paintbrush, so Maodou beat him. Mom still didn't listen to Maodou's explanation."

"Click~" The door opposite opened before the little girl finished speaking. It was obvious that the mother had been paying attention to the situation outside the door.

"Hu Kejia! No matter what, you can't hit the children first."

"He even snatched Maodou's paintbrush. It's okay for Maodou to beat him. Dad has said that if anyone robs Edamame's things, he will beat him back hard."

When Lin Shuwen heard this, she secretly glanced at the face of the woman opposite.

Sure enough, the woman's face darkened: "Okay! I asked you, why is such a well-behaved child like Maodou suddenly fighting with other children? Hu Qiang, it turns out you are the one who taught the child indiscriminately, you"

Halfway through her words, the woman realized that the door was still open and the neighbor was still watching.

"Ahem! Wenwen made you laugh. My family is unreliable."

"It's okay, sister, don't worry, I didn't see anything." As she said this, Lin Shuwen covered her eyes with one hand, put the other on the door handle, and unlocked the door with her fingerprint.

"Pfft" the woman couldn't help laughing. The more she got along with Lin Shuwen, the more she felt that she was a lovely and kind girl.

After being teased like this by Lin Shuwen, the woman didn't seem so angry anymore.

When Lin Shuwen returned home, she slightly raised the corners of her mouth as she thought about the family opposite.

Will she and Luo Ming get along like this in the future?

Lin Shuwen considers herself not a very good-tempered person. Will Luo Ming tolerate her as Hu Qiang tolerates her wife?

There are also children. If they have children, can the children tell the difference between father and mother?

Wear each other once a week, and the secrets the children share with their father this week become shared with their mothers the next week.

After thinking about it, Lin Shuwen suddenly wanted to hear Luo Ming's voice. She was about to make a call when her hand suddenly paused.

Recalling the way the family got along just now, Lin Shuwen wanted to tease Luo Ming. She came to the cloakroom, rummaged around, and found a nightgown at the bottom of the closet.

Lin Shuwen bought this nightgown online last year. The one she bought was one size too small and it was a bit tight.

Lin Shuwen put on her nightgown, turned around in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

This nightgown has a looming beauty.

"Click~" Lin Shuwen covered her face with her mobile phone, took a selfie in front of the mirror, blurred the background, found a few pictures online and sent them to Luo Ming.

"Ask, which one is..." Before Lin Shuwen finished typing, Luo Ming's voice came over first: "Wenwen is not astringent enough! There are too few leaks."

Lin Shuwen's head was full of questions. Before she could recover, Luo Ming sent another voice message: "Wenwen, which one do you want me to look for? The second one is perfect."

"How do you know? My background is blurred."

"There is a black mole the size of a small grain of rice on your right shoulder, close to your chest."

"You observe so carefully!"

"Ahem, this is all necessary contact. I can't help but take a shower, right?"

"Dog man! I just paid you back"

"What else?"

Lin Shuwen didn't reply anymore. She took off her nightgown and threw it into the trash can. As soon as she changed her clothes, Luo Ming called.
