[CFCS] Chapter 151
Arc 11.6 - Game Developer
Translated by guilty
Jing Yang's words have led He Lang assumed that Jing Yang is a chef who specialized in dark foods. He has already considered it; if what Jing Yang prepared is truly unpalatable, he will eat a small portion and then properly suggest a takeout.
Jing Yang didn't create anything exceptional; he simply prepared a few home-cooked stir-fries that he enjoyed. He only cooks because he hasn't had a good appetite lately. He only wants to make some foods that he likes.
He Lang was taken aback when Jing Yang placed the dishes on the table. He hadn't anticipated Jing Yang's skill to be that high. Even if simple, these foods are exquisite in color, smell, and flavor. You can tell the foods are very excellent just by smelling them.
Jing Yang served He Lang a dinner and then proceeded to eat while ignoring him.
He Lang is acting exactly like the owner of this house, and he began eating after being served a bowl, and he didn't plan to be courteous at all.
He felt conquered simply by Jing Yang's culinary prowess, and he secretly resolved in his heart to return more frequently in the future.
While eating, He Lang couldn't help but stare at Jing Yang, whose eyes, like stars reflected in the lake, had a strange and addicting sense under his long eyelashes. He was puzzled, to say the least. Obviously, he hasn't had much contact with this person before; it's the first time he's sat and ate with him face to face. But why does he feel a sense of déjà vu, as if this has happened many times before?
He Lang felt a sense of unexplainable feeling, as if he was supposed to live such a life. And he immediately felt something he never thought before, as if his search for life's meaning and purpose were only for this moment.
Jing Yang had all of his memories and was entirely used to getting along in this way, so he wasn't as emotional as He Lang. This was already a fairly common and natural occurrence for him.
Jing Yang sent He Lang after dinner. He Lang was still a little reluctant to leave as he stood at the entrance. He had no idea why, but he felt compelled to stay the night. Fortunately, his reason remained intact, and he did not express his true feelings. After all, their relationship is still developing, and it would be too sudden for him to even consider asking to stay in the guest room.
In any case, He Lang thought, they would have a cooperative relationship in the future, and there would be additional opportunities for interaction. It's simply a matter of time until the relationship improves. So, being abrupt now is a no go, and scaring this person away is not worth the risk.
Jing Yang's head was entirely blank after the dinner, compared to He Lang's who constantly had something in his mind. He just sent He Lang blankly to the door. Then he stood there waiting for him to exit so he could close the door.
"I'll bring the contract over tomorrow and go over it with you in detail." He Lang said, looking at Jing Yang.
"Ah? Oh, great." Jing Yang stared at He Lang in daze.
He Lang's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing became heavy for a brief moment. Because this type of Jing Yang is so adorable in his eyes, he wants to take him in his arms and rub his hair before kissing his face.
However, He Lang kept his cool and swiftly turned around and went after mumbling something about seeing him tomorrow.
Jing Yang wasn't shocked that He Lang seemed to be eager to leave. He shut the door and went to sleep, still thinking of nothing.
He Lang arrived with his lawyer and assistant the next day to discuss the deal with Jing Yang.
He Lang's terms for Jing Yang were far superior than others, demonstrating his willingness to work with him. Jing Yang couldn't find anything wrong with the contract. Jing Yang even felt that his objectives were too obvious, but he was not the type to make comments because the deal was really too beneficial for him, so he gladly accepted all of the benefits He Lang offered him.
The contract was signed in one afternoon because neither party was dissatisfied with the content.
He Lang asked the lawyers and assistants to leave first and he stayed to discuss the substance of the job with Jing Yang.
He Lang wanted the company to broadcast a high-profile announcement that their company will partner with Jing Yang after obtaining Jing Yang's agreement. Many people were taken aback when this event was announced, particularly the Xi family, who had been expecting that Jing Yang would establish his own company.
__________________
Du Jie and Xi Rui did not go to the office. The family of four sat together, serious faces on their faces, discussing Jing Yang and Weiyu Group's partnership.
(T/N : He Lang's company)
Du Jie is well aware of the Weiyu Group's might. He can be described as the most worried. "Xi Le left the company; perhaps at that time he didn't even consider starting his own business. He must have intended to work with other companies from the start, then take revenge against us.”
"For a president, I thought he had ideals and objectives. As a result, he has resorted to working for others." Xi Rui, despite his recent graduation, is well aware of Weiyu Group's might. He was also furious since he knew it was difficult for them to deal with Jing Yang when he joined Weiyu.
Xi Guangshan was also surprised by Jing Yang's decision to join Weiyu, and also that Weiyu agreed to work with Jing Yang. Even while the conflict with Xi Le is well-known, they are still father and son, and the blood tie cannot be severed. Weiyu and Xi Sheng are also competitors. He couldn't understand why Weiyu's chairman, He Lang, made such a decision to work with a former president of their competitor.
"Dad, what should I do now?" Du Jie asked, looking at Xi Guangshan.
"Huh!" Xi Guangshan snorted coldly and said, "He is quite smart, knowing that he will never be able to start his own business, so he got a strong backer and then turned against us. So what if he thinks he is the only person capable of leading Xi Sheng? We'll give him what he asked for and let him know what regret is! "
"But...," After a slight pause, Du Jie said, "Weiyu is a formidable opponent. It will be tough for us to deal with Xi Le if he truly joins with them to fight us."
Xi Guangshan looked at Du Jie and said, "Xi Le was able to compete with Weiyu when he was the president. Can you still not defeat them now that you and Xi Rui have teamed up?"
Du Jie was at a loss for words. Even if he believed in himself, Xi Rui's abilities were incomparable to Xi Le's in the first place. Despite the fact that Xi Rui hasn't worked that long, the numerous issues in the company have kept coming up. Xi Rui's incompetence was exactly how Du Jie manipulated the entire company multiple times behind the scenes, so he was first quite pleased. But now, with such strong pressure from Weiyu, he wasn't sure if he should keep being pleased.
"I think we should steer clear from Weiyu at the moment and focus on other types of games first, which may be more beneficial to our company's growth." Du Jie voiced his thoughts. "As for Xi Le, let's leave him alone for now; we'll see how his collaboration with Weiyu goes, and there will be possibilities to teach him in the future."
"I'm not going to wait any longer!" Xi Rui hates it as long as he remembers Jing Yang beating him. "What's so great about him? He thinks I'm terrified of him now that he's joined Weiyu? I don't want to avoid their nonsense; I want to fight! We'll do everything he does and see who comes out on top!"
Xi Guangshan thought for a moment before saying, "Xi Le took the initiative to leave the company and join Weiyu right away; the goal is clearly not to battle us internally, but to attack us from the outside. He will definitely come at us even if we take the initiative to avoid him. Yes, it is better for us to strike first, even if the opponent is Weiyu, we are not completely out of the game."
"Dad, I already have a general idea," Xi Rui assured him. “Xi Le can join Weiyu, and we can also work with other companies. Technical skills are the most vital for game companies, and we’ll also hire more game developers with high salaries. Allow Du Jie to lead them in creating better games. We will be able to surpass even Weiyu as long as more people like playing our games."
"Okay!" With satisfaction, Xi Guangshan patted Xi Rui on the shoulder. He was really pleased with Xi Rui's idea. He believed he deserved to be the son he had raised himself and thought he was far superior than Xi Le. "Just be free and act bravely according to your own thoughts, and Dad will wholeheartedly support you from behind!"
Du Jie saw they had made a decision. He was still concerned, but he thought that if he followed Xi Rui's strategy, he would be able to succeed. Even if it fails, Xi Rui has a backup plan.
Despite the fact that they never avoid Wen Zhu when discussing company issues, Wen Zhu never interrupts when they discuss work and simply listens silently.
Wen Zhu was outraged at first when they claimed that because Xi Le had joined Weiyu Group, they couldn't deal with him temporarily and that he might retaliate against them. How could there be no chance of getting her long awaited revenge?
Wen Zhu's mood lightened just as she was about to lose control of her expression when she heard them say that they could still deal with Xi Le. She felt reassured when she saw her son's confidence. It's impossible for her son to be worse than that woman's son. Let that old chairman look from the sky, Xi Le that he personally cultivated is not as good as her own son.
_________________
Jing Yang officially began working in Weiyu after thinking about what kind of game he would like to produce. He Lang not only provided him with an excellent team, but he also had an entire floor for him and the team. The working atmosphere is likewise excellent, with plenty of space and comfort. He Lang also enlisted the help of three assistants. All he has to do now is create games. Someone will quickly assist him in arranging other things as long as he speaks.
Even if a new boss is appointed, it is difficult to instantly make everyone underneath to follow. Individuality grows stronger as people become more capable. Jing Yang can see that the team He Lang put together for him is full of capable people, yet they seem to have no problems about welcoming a leader who unexpectedly joined them. He is free to do whatever he wants. Jing Yang realized that He Lang must have greeted them ahead of time, which explains how this was possible.
He Lang had a positive impression of Jing Yang since they had worked together, so he would not wrong Jing Yang when he joined his company. He never had this kind of thought before. In his opinion, the capability to subdue the people under your control is also a test of ability. But when it comes to Jing Yang, his thoughts are completely different. He doesn't want him to be tested or embarrassed in any way. So he did 'greet' the people he arranged for Jing Yang; otherwise, how could they be so sincere and obedient?
