   Chapter 226 Active car companies

  Bob is now one of Harvard's biggest names.

   His social network has become popular in colleges and universities across the United States.

  Bob is also one of the people who knows most of the programming talent in schools today.

   Through this channel, you can more accurately find some potential stocks that are not generally found.

   That's what Take Yusei thought.

"That's what I think." Zhu Yuxing said, "I will plan to invest in Harvard University and several other universities to hold an event. The title of this event is called: Heroes, Every Interested Programmer. All of them can join the event, and in addition to the prize money for the winner of these people, they can also get a high-paying work contract in advance, which is equivalent to locking their future in advance.”

   Bob listened carefully.

   It sounds like a game, but the final reward will be a real reward.

   Not only Zhu Yuxing can find some talents in this way, but also himself!

At this time, Zhu Yuxing added: "However, what I need is more of a kind of creative talent, not someone who can only program, so we can work together, I choose those who have Creative people, you can filter people who meet your company's conditions, and our two companies will work together to cut off the outstanding talents of the university in advance."

   Bob nodded: "It's a good idea. Seriously, I want to go back and hold this kind of competition right now. This kind of competition must be super exciting."

   Take Yuxing said: "So it seems that we have reached a consensus. Next, it depends on whether your publicity on social networks is in place. I also want to see with my own eyes what kind of outstanding talents your universities can produce."

After a meeting   , Jeff returned to the dormitory with a suit that smelled like hot pot, and Bob began to help Take Yusei to find so-called talents.

   This is a very interesting thing in his opinion.

   In the process, he can also find some capable people to work with him.

   Then, under the impetus of Bob, he soon set up a team to break through the barriers in his school.

  There is only one condition for recruitment of this group, that is, excellent programming ability.

  This programming ability is not limited to programming software and systems, but even includes people who have programming ability for music, painting, etc.

   Soon Bob got in touch with some familiar computer geeks in his profession and invited them. At the same time, he also posted a bounty announcement on his social network.

   The name of this bounty announcement is called Heroes.

   The so-called “passing the level” means that there are difficulties to be overcome, and this first level is some puzzles about programming and creativity that were released together when the announcement was made.

   Everyone can come and try it.

   If you are really good enough, you can get a work contract with an initial annual salary of $500,000.

   For these top universities in the world, such an annual salary is slightly higher.

   But this is also the most likely to attract people.

  When the announcement of the reward was spread throughout the social network, every student in the university who knew programming skills immediately started to move.

   Most of them are attracted by the high salary, but some are attracted by the so-called puzzles.

   "Want to take risks? Want to strive for excellence? The world's greatest video game company invites you to join, solve puzzles, and be a part of us."

   In order to attract these cutting-edge young people, it is not enough to just pay a high salary, but also to give them a sense of achievement in accomplishing something.

   This challenge is a test for them.

   Regarding the recruitment of employees, Matsuhashi and Bob will work together to get it done, and both parties will get what they need.

   At this time, Zhu Yuxing received a phone call that surprised him.

   This call is from a German car company.

   If you use the analogy from the previous life, this car company should be BMW, but this world is called the Rennes Brothers.

   The other party's purpose is very clear, and he wants to talk to Take Yusei about cooperation.

   As for the cooperation content, it is related to Need for Speed.

   They want to provide sponsorships and are willing to take the initiative to pay for their cars to appear in Need for Speed ​​without any licensing fees.

   This is not a sudden decision by this company.

  In the earliest days, Matsuhashi tried to send invitations to many of the world's more famous car companies, hoping that the authorization would allow the other party's car brand to log in in his own Need for Speed.

   However, that invitation was unanimously rejected by most car companies. Their reason was that the authorization fee for Songqiao’s actual driving was a bit low.

   They hope that they can license it to Yuxing Electronic Entertainment at a higher price.

   However, this does not include the Rennes Brothers car company. At that time, the car company chose a silent attitude and did not actively respond to Matsuhashi.

  There were quite a lot of car companies who had originally rejected them. In the end, only Japanese car companies were willing to provide brand authorization, and when they heard that they planned to promote the game overseas, they didn’t even ask for a penny of licensing fees.

   In such a comparison, car companies in other countries have come to a standstill all of a sudden.

   In the end, Take Yusei simply asked Matsuhashi to accept none of them and rejected them all.

   Then let their designers design a bunch of cars that are similar to but different from those of the car companies. At the same time, the brand is not marked, which is equivalent to stealing traffic, but even if the car companies are dissatisfied, there is no chance of winning a lawsuit.

  Just like that, Need for Speed ​​is officially registered in the United States.

  Although the total sales of this game are only 300,000 to 400,000 yuan, which is not comparable to the two games Street Fighter and Street Basketball, but it is also regarded as the first echelon of video games in the United States.

   Especially Need for Speed ​​is really well made, at least every player who plays it is full of praise.

   Then all of a sudden, the cars of Japanese car companies suddenly gained some popularity in the United States.

   About four or five years ago, it happened to be a period of time when the Japanese threat theory prevailed in the United States,

   During that time, the Americans went crazy and went straight to the streets to smash all kinds of Japanese products and boycott Japanese products, which caused a lot of trouble.

   At that time, the U.S. government also chose to acquiesce, and even government officials came out to show off a certain Japanese product.

   At that time, Japanese automobiles, electronics and other products plummeted in the minds of Americans.

  Especially Japanese auto companies were the targets of heavy suppression by the United States. At that time, it was a symbol of cutting-edge industrial products, and it was completely incomparable with other products.

PS: Sorry for the lateness, Carvin is a bit powerful, I deleted and wrote and deleted, this story is always not satisfied, I feel it is too watery, and finally decided to skip it, just take the recruitment and write other things. of.
