"Thank you, this achievement is nothing. Your Blizzard company's Battle.net has a maximum of more than 120,000 people online at the same time. This is an example for me to learn from." Chu Tianfeng smiled lightly.
"Haha, there is nothing to compare with. Our Battle.net is just an online game platform, and your "Legend of China" is the first Chinese graphics MUD online game. Just by virtue of this, you are fully qualified to join the Blizzard Club."
Zeng Xulang smiled.
"Mr. Zeng, thank you for the award." Chu Tianfeng smiled modestly.
"Mr. Chu, I have a little question. I don't know if I should ask it!" Zeng Xu smiled slightly, and his words were obviously more modest than Chu Tianfeng.
"Mr. Zeng, you're welcome. If you have anything to say, just say it." Chu Tianfeng smiled.
"Excuse me, did you develop the core engine of "Legend of China" independently? Or did you purchase someone else's technology patent?" Zeng Xu's eyes suddenly shot out two needle-like cold rays, and he stared at Chu Tianfeng and asked.
"This..." The other party's words clearly hit the point. Chu Tianfeng's game engine is a finished product bought from Mike. Of course, the technology patent has been successfully transferred. There is no other way. In order to get ahead of others,
In the past, when the company launched online games as quickly as possible, the only shortcut was to purchase someone else's game engine, which cost more than 10 million yuan at that time.
However, when faced with Zeng Xu's questions today, Chu Tianfeng found it difficult to answer. If he said it was independently developed, it would be tantamount to deceiving others. And judging from Zeng Xu's expression, it seemed that he had already mastered some inside information. He would definitely
It comes prepared.
"Haha, Mr. Zeng's question is hard for me to answer!" Chu Tianfeng's expression looked a little embarrassed.
"Actually, we both know the answer well. Your Tianfeng company has been established for no more than two years. It is simply an impossible task to develop a core game engine in such a short period of time, so your game engine
, it must be a patented product bought with money, right?" Zeng Xu asked with a faint smile.
"Since Mr. Zeng knows everything, I won't hide it from you. You are right." Chu Tianfeng said with a smile.
"Can I ask how much you spent?" Zeng Xu asked.
"12.5 million yuan, this is half a million cheaper than the seller because of the favor of his friend!" Chu Tianfeng said truthfully.
"Damn it!" Zeng Xu's face changed when he heard this.
"Huh?" Chu Tianfeng was confused. Is it "abominable" that he, the buyer, spends unjust money, or is it "abominable" that the seller makes shady money?
"Mr. Chu, did you buy your game engine from an American named Mike?" Zeng Xu asked again.
"Yes, how did you know?" Chu Tianfeng asked in surprise.
"To tell you the truth." Zeng Xu said to Chu Tian: "The Chinese game engine you bought was developed by me! Because I was in urgent need of money, I sold it to Mike, but when I signed the agreement with him, I had two
There are additional conditions. It’s a pity that guy Mike only complied with one.”
"First, the game engine must be sold to a Chinese company, and he did it... But second, I asked him to earn no more than 50% of the cost price, and he broke his promise! Mike spent $600,000,
The engine he bought from me for about 5 million yuan, he sold to you for more than 10 million yuan, more than doubled, damn it!" Zeng Xu said bitterly.
"It's normal to avoid business if there is no such thing as cheating." Chu Tianfeng said this, but secretly muttered in his heart: "You Mike, you hacked me for more than six million yuan in one go. If you had known Zeng Xu earlier,
Then I won’t spend so much money!”
"The people of the Thomas family are like mosquitoes seeing blood when they see money. The Chinese game engine market has been in chaos recently, and it was all caused by them." Zeng Xu said...
"Haha, you will learn from every experience! Anyway, my "Chinese Legend OL" will be launched soon, and I will make back the cost soon." Chu Tianfeng said confidently.
"Mr. Chu is still so generous. If you need help in the future, I, Zeng Xu, will definitely be willing to help. We are all compatriots." Zeng Xulang said with a smile.
"Thank you." Chu Tianfeng picked up the wine glass and had a drink with Zeng Xu, and they both laughed at the same time.
At this time, the atmosphere in the banquet hall became even more lively. On the front stage, a group of Broadway singers and dancers, handsome men and beautiful women, dressed in a variety of beautiful costumes, appeared dazzlingly.
As a Broadway classic music played, the song and dance performance officially began.
"Haha, Mr. Chu, we meet again!" Mike appeared out of nowhere, wearing a black tuxedo, waving at Chu Tianfeng and smiling.
"Hello, brother!" Chu Tianfeng smiled brightly, still looking very enthusiastic on the surface, even though he was struggling in his heart: "Mike, you have the nerve to say hello to me? When you hacked my money, I will make you vomit sooner or later.
It’s coming out! Let’s ride on the donkey and read the songbook—we’ll see!”
"Hey, Mr. Zeng, you are here too." Mike glanced at Zeng Xu next to Chu Tianfeng, and his expression changed slightly. He did not expect that Chu Tianfeng and Zeng Xu could get together. Thinking of himself
I feel a little embarrassed about all the dirty money I earned from breaking the agreement.
"Brother Mike, you have been very proud of yourself recently. I heard that you are about to get married to the eldest lady of the Chen family. You will really gain both wealth and beauty!" Zeng Xu said with a thorny tone.
"Haha, that's good. I'm going to see my fiancée now to finalize the marriage to avoid long nights and nightmares." Mike chuckled, turned around and left.
As soon as Chen Xuewei saw Mike walking towards her, a look of disgust appeared on her pretty face. She couldn't hide even if she wanted to. Mike's nose was too long, and he would find her wherever she went.
.
"Xuewei, my dear, you are the most beautiful angel tonight." Mike stared at Chen Xuewei like a mosquito in the dog days of summer and chuckled.
"Thank you." Chen Xuewei smiled softly, the expression on her face seemed a bit stiff.
"I have a carefully prepared gift for you, which represents my sincerity to you. I hope you can accept it." Mike smiled slightly and took out a jewelry box from his pocket. After opening it, it released a bright light.
Chu Tianfeng took a closer look and saw a sparkling blue diamond ring inside. It was heart-shaped and weighed 2 carats. It immediately attracted the eyes of many people in amazement.
Blue diamonds are the same grade of precious diamonds as pink diamonds, costing between $50,000 and $200,000 per carat.
The blue diamond ring that Mike took out was of high grade and exquisitely made. Its market value is at least US$200,000, which is equivalent to more than 1.6 million RMB.
If such a precious ring is given to a woman, everyone knows that it represents a naked proposal!
Very few women can resist such an alluring engagement ring. Not to mention that Mike himself is a suave, handsome young man. Even if he is a rotten old man, there will still be women who fall for him.
In the past, I threw myself into my arms.
Chu Tianfeng and Zeng Xu looked at each other, with anger in their eyes. Chu Tianfeng secretly resented in his heart: "Damn it, this kid took the part of the money that was used to blackmail me.
Chen Xuewei buys a ring to propose?"
"Xuewei, the goddess in my heart, please accept my ring and marry me! I will love you for the rest of my life!" Mike knelt on one leg and held the ring in front of Chen Xuewei with a pious face.
Almost everyone's eyes fell on Chen Xuewei, wanting to see if Chen Xuewei could accept Mike's crazy proposal...
Chen Xuewei was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that Mike would propose to her in this way. She was thinking about how to decline him politely and stood there silently for a while.
Mike thought Chen Xuewei was moved by him, so he quickly said while the iron was hot: "Xuewei, I love you! Please accept my heart!"
"Xiaowei, what are you doing standing still? Take it now!" Chen Shen said to Chen Xuewei with bright eyes.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept such an expensive gift from you." Chen Xuewei said to Mike with a cold face.
"No, only you are worthy of it. I hope you will accept it." Mike stared at Chen Xuewei affectionately and said sincerely.
"No, I won't accept it." Chen Xuewei said firmly.
"If you don't accept it, I will keep kneeling like this until I die!" Mike said persistently.
"Hey, Mike, what are you doing? I told you that we can't be together!" Chen Xuewei said firmly.
"Why? You must give me a reason." Mike said with a sad face.
"Do you think it's necessary?" Chen Xuewei asked coldly.
"It's necessary. Do you really have the heart to hurt a man who loves you so much? I would give my life for you! Xuewei, you are the most beautiful goddess in my heart, you can't be so cruel." Mike said with tears in his eyes.
.
Chu Tianfeng and Zeng Xu next to them felt goosebumps all over their bodies when they heard it. Such a disgusting proposal from Mike is common for Westerners, but it is really difficult for a reserved Oriental woman like Chen Xuewei to accept it.
"Xuewei, why did you reject me? Please give me an explanation." Mike was still kneeling on one leg, staring closely at Chen Xuewei, and said reluctantly.
"I'll give you a reason!" Chu Tianfeng suddenly walked over and sneered at Mike.
"Chu Tianfeng, what do you mean?" Mike asked in surprise.
"Haha, you want to know the reason why she rejected you?" Chu Tianfeng asked with a smile.
"Yes!" Mike said firmly.
"Because she has a boyfriend, and it's me!" Chu Tianfeng suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Chen Xuewei's shoulders and said with a smile.
"Ah?" Everyone present showed expressions of amazement. Even Chen Xuewei herself was frightened by Chu Tianfeng. Although she knew that he was helping her to save herself, she would also bring trouble to him.
Big trouble.
Mike's expression changed. He looked at Chu Tianfeng carefully, gritted his teeth secretly, straightened up slowly, and asked in a cold voice: "Is what you said true?"
"Haha, I am Chen Xuewei's boyfriend! Is this still false?" Chu Tianfeng put his arms around Chen Xuewei's tender shoulders. The closeness between the two of them is the best proof.
"Xiaowei, what's going on?" Chen Shen on the side was almost furious. He glared at Chu Tianfeng and said sternly: "Hurry up and let go of my daughter. Who admits that you are her boyfriend?"
"Sister Xuewei, tell me quickly, am I your boyfriend?" Chu Tianfeng quickly winked at Chen Xuewei beside him. Yesterday when they were drinking, he said that he would be Chen Xuewei's substitute boyfriend and help her.
Overcoming the difficulties, Chen Xuewei was still hesitant at that time, but today, facing such a severe situation, she had to make a decision.
"Xuewei, tell me, is he your boyfriend?" Mike was not given in vain, a pair of blue eyes were chattering around wildly.
"He... is my boyfriend!" Chen Xuewei gritted her teeth secretly and nodded. As soon as she said the words, she regretted it. This was pushing Chu Tianfeng forward as a "shield", which was equivalent to pushing him away.
When he gets to the fire bed, the Thomas family will definitely make trouble for him... However, when things are "forced" to this point, there is no other solution!
Words spoken out are like water thrown out; you cannot take them back even if you want to.…
The surroundings suddenly became silent.
When Chen Shen heard this, he was almost furious. His hands were trembling. He subconsciously glanced behind Mike from the corner of his eye, and his heart immediately started to tremble.
I saw Mike's eldest brother Shrive standing next to him, holding a glass of champagne in his hand, but his face was as cold as iron.
Mike held the ring in his hand and stayed there like a wood carving and clay sculpture. His face changed again and again, his eyes glared at Chu Tianfeng, and he wanted to rush up and take a bite of him.
Chen Xuewei looked embarrassed and ashamed, muttering to herself: "Xiao Feng, I'm sorry for you, because I made you make so many enemies, how can I repay you in the future?"
Chu Tianfeng's face was always calm and composed. Instead of letting go of Chen Xuewei's hand, he hugged her tighter. He had many enemies to begin with. If there were too many lice, he wouldn't bite them, and he didn't care about having another Mike.
The scene was deadlocked for about two minutes, but Mike spoke first. He smiled at Chen Xuewei and said, "Okay, since you have a boyfriend, I take back everything I said today."
After saying that, he took back the blue diamond ring in his hand.
"Mike, I hope you can understand me. I will definitely repay you for the kindness your Thomas family has shown to our Chen family." Chen Xuewei said with a slight smile.
"Okay, this is how you repay me, right? I appreciate it." Mike gritted his teeth and said bitterly.
"Xuewei, are you crazy? Do you want to make me angry to death?" Chen Shen finally regained his breath and pointed at Chen Xuewei and scolded her sharply.
"Dad, don't be angry. Chu Tianfeng and I have been together for a long time...I never had time to tell you!" Chen Xuewei blushed, and in order to get over this hurdle today, she simply pretended to the end.
.
"Uncle, Chen Xuewei and I really love each other, and I hope you can help me." In order to cooperate with Chen Xuewei's acting, Chu Tianfeng turned to look at Chen Shen and said sincerely.
"Who is your uncle? I don't have you as a son-in-law, let go of my daughter!" Chen Shen became angry, glared at Chu Tianfeng, and said sternly.
"Whether you admit it or not, Xuewei and I have been in love for a long time. This is a fact that no one can change." Chu Tianfeng said with a smile.
"Chu Tianfeng, you are so determined! You want to be the son-in-law of our Chen family, unless I die!" Chen Shen stared at Chu Tianfeng hatefully and said sternly.
"Dad, can we discuss this matter after we get home?" Chen Xuewei blushed and said coyly.
"Xiaowei, no matter where you are, I will never agree to your marriage with that boy." Chen Shen said coldly.
"Mike, what the hell is going on?" Shreve finally lost his temper, and his face turned pale and pale. The young master of the Thomas family was rejected for marriage proposal, and he became a big deal at tonight's sorority.
joke.
"Brother, I don't know. How could Xuewei suddenly have a boyfriend?" Mike was also confused. Before that, he had vowed that Chen Xuewei would definitely agree to his proposal, and then Shi
Leaf will announce the news of their engagement in public at the sorority party.
Mike wanted to use this all-or-nothing method to continue to put pressure on Chen Xuewei. Because her father Chen Shen had already agreed to the marriage, could Chen Xuewei still twist her small arms past her thighs?
However, he never expected that Cheng Yaojin - Chu Tianfeng suddenly appeared and said that she was Chen Xuewei's boyfriend. Chen Xuewei also happened to get off the donkey and admitted the relationship between the two, which suddenly disrupted the situation.
’ After learning about Mike’s plan, he felt a little confused.
"Come here." Shrief pulled the microphone to a place with few people and whispered: "How do you think Chen Xuewei knows Chu Tianfeng?"
"Well, I heard that Chen Xuewei used to be Chu Tianfeng's teacher and taught him for three years. Did they have a teacher-student relationship when they were in high school?" Mike said with a puzzled look on his face...
"I think it's impossible! Chu Tianfeng must have been brought in by Chen Xuewei to deal with you temporarily." Shriver has a lot of experience, and his eyes have never tolerated criticism. He had secretly observed Chu Tianfeng and Chen Xuewei just now, although they were very close to each other.
They were close, but their expressions didn't look natural, and they didn't look like a couple who had been together for several years.
"I also find it strange. If Chen Xuewei has really been in love with Chu Tianfeng for many years, why didn't she tell me clearly before?" Mike said coldly.
"So, don't be discouraged now. As long as the two heads of the Chen family, Chen Yunqiao and Chen Shen, support you, even if Chu Tianfeng is really Chen Xuewei's boyfriend, he can't compete with you." Shriev's eyes flashed,
He smiled lightly.
"I know, I was too submissive to her in the past, which made Chen Xuewei feel that I was unmanly. Now I have decided to play hard!" Mike looked at Chen Xuewei in the distance and murmured: "Xuewei, just wait.
, one day I will let you see what a real man is!"
"Mike, don't act recklessly. You should be a little patient when dealing with women." Shreve said in a deep voice.
"Brother, don't worry! I'll let Chen Xuewei and Chu Tianfeng, the fake couple, cheat on me soon!" Mike said bitterly.
At this time, the Broadway show on the stage ended and the dance party began. Men and women, dressed in all kinds of bright costumes, walked onto the dance floor and danced gracefully.
"Sister Xuewei, shall we dance?" After Chu Tianfeng helped Chen Xuewei out of the siege, he never left her. Since he had decided to pretend to be her boyfriend, he simply pretended to be her boyfriend.
"Well, let's go!" Chen Xuewei, with a rosy face, took his hand and walked onto the dance floor.
