Before meeting Chen Dong, Yang Huan couldn't remember what this guy looked like.
But as soon as I saw him, I recognized him immediately.
The reason is very simple.
This guy is still dressed exactly the same as yesterday.
At first glance, he is a technical geek.
Especially the hairstyle with a hint of Shamate style is very joyful.
But in his own opinion, this hairstyle seems cool, special, and very satisfying.
The place where the two met was in the high-end conference room of the headquarters office of WeChat Research Institute.
In addition to Yang Huan, several core executives from the institute including Zhuang Zicheng and Palmer Luckey were present at the meeting.
This makes the meeting feel a bit like an interview.
"I heard that you want to see me" Yang Huan looked at him and asked with a smile.
Chen Dong looked at the strangers around him, swallowed, and nodded.
He looked a little uncomfortable.
"If necessary, we can talk outside," Yang Huan suggested.
Unexpectedly, Chen Dong shook his head vigorously and took a deep breath to calm down.
"It's okay, me" Looking at Yang Huan's encouraging eyes, Chen Dong finally summoned up the courage.
"I want to tell you personally that I'm sorry."
"Why?"
Yang Huan felt strange.
Apologizing for no reason, there must be a reason Could it be because I'm more handsome?
Chen Dong tilted his head, "Because of what happened yesterday, so" "That's not your problem, and" Yang Huan pouted, "I don't take it to heart at all."
But this Shamat young man looked at Yang Huan very stubbornly, "No matter what, I still want to apologize."
"Whatever you want," Yang Huan said with a smile.
If someone wants to apologize, you can't just accept it yourself.
"Okay, now that you've apologized, let's talk about serious matters."
"Um" Chen Dong walked to the seat that Zhuang Zicheng pointed out to him when he entered the door just now and sat down.
"I want to know why you said that both of our products are excellent, but they are still far away from success, and there is something wrong with the direction."
Yang Huan shook a document in his hand.
Here are recorded the valuable opinions left by many guests who experienced it yesterday.
Among them, the opinion that is most valued by everyone is Chen Dong's opinion.
Chen Dong was a little timid, "I didn't mean anything else, I just said it a bit directly."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help laughing.
Yang Huan also chuckled, "It's okay.
Our company advocates freedom of speech.
Anyone can speak, so just tell us what you think."
Chen Dong took another look at Yang Huan and found that the latter really didn't mean to blame him, and he felt certain in his heart.
"I was outside the WeChat exhibition area yesterday.
I noticed that among the people who came to the WeChat exhibition area, at least six out of ten people were engaged in game-related industries, and the experience group you invited was 100% Ten out of ten are developers from the gaming industry.”
Yang Huan, Zhuang Zicheng and everyone present were a little surprised.
This guy's eyes are too sharp, right?
All this can be found With this observation ability alone, Yang Huan wouldn't believe this guy if he wasn't a talent.
"Yes, keep talking."
Yang Huan admitted frankly.
“To be a bit exaggerated, I may be the first person in China to be interested in virtual reality technology and engage in research.”
Yang Huan didn't believe this.

It looks like this guy is only in his early twenties.
How can he be said to be the oldest?
Could it be possible that he started doing this when he was ten years old?
However, thinking about Zhuang Zicheng, Yang Huan felt that it was somewhat possible.
"I will take the 3D technology that everyone is now familiar with as an example.
It took about fifteen years from maturity to popularization.
It started with games and then continued to enter other fields such as movies and design."
"So, how long will it take for virtual reality and augmented reality?"
This issue has actually been discussed by WeChat Research Institute’s senior executives, and it has also appeared in WeChat Research Institute’s ecosystem planning, especially in the gaming field, which has been listed as a top priority.
"Keep talking."
Yang Huan also started to become a little serious.
He found that Chen Dong was not the kind of person who talked nonsense.
He meant what he said.
"I have read some information.
There is nothing too advanced about your hardware.
In the eyes of some top international companies, it does not even have much technical content at all.
It is just a head start.
Once you give them a response, time, and your research and development has stalled, then they can catch up anytime and anywhere.”
What Chen Dong said was a bit serious, but it was definitely not alarmist.
"Therefore, we must seize the advantage of seizing the opportunity and quickly seize the market before other manufacturers can react.
The most critical game market is the first to bear the brunt."
When Yang Huan heard this, he nodded and smiled, "Good point, continue."
Many people present couldn't help but nod.
This guy is quite capable.
“When it comes to games, we have to mention one thing, and that is WeChat’s biggest weakness.”
Chen Dong scanned the crowd before continuing.
"There is no doubt that WeChat is the most profitable game developer in the world.
WeChat games and WeChat game platforms are both very profitable projects.
Especially in the past year, there has been an explosive growth in smartphone users around the world.
The mobile game market has increased fivefold, and it is said that the revenue from WeChat games alone exceeds 20 million pounds a day.”
When he said this, Chen Dong couldn't help but look at Master Huan again, his eyes full of admiration.
You know, among Apple's ten most profitable games, WeChat games occupy eight seats.
One day is 20 million pounds, how much is one year?
It’s scary just thinking about it.
The creativity and production of these games are all the work of Master Huan.
To put it bluntly, Master Huan is definitely a god-like figure in the eyes of game lovers all over the world.
Although Mr.
Huan has gradually faded away from game development in the past six months or so, WeChat Games is snowballing and growing, and has become a palace-level company in the global gaming field.
Two years ago, everyone was shocked that WeChat games surpassed Nintendo and Blizzard.
But now, the situation is reversed.
If it doesn't surpass Nintendo and Blizzard, it will be shocking.
As a game lover, Chen Dong admired Master Huan very much.
"But WeChat's biggest weakness and shortcoming is that all your games are mobile games, but to promote virtual reality helmets, you must rely on console games and c-games."
When he said this, Chen Dong had a rare sense of humor.
“I don’t think anyone would be that stupid, holding a thin and light mobile phone while wearing a brick-like virtual reality helmet to play games.”

Everyone present was secretly thinking about this scene, and everyone was amused.
"Good point."
Yang Huan couldn't help but nod.
Chen Dong obviously still hadn't finished speaking.
After saying thank you to Master Huan for his appreciation, he continued to express his opinions.
"At the exhibition, the appearance of virtual reality helmets and augmented reality glasses became the biggest highlight, attracting the attention of almost all enthusiasts around the world.
Many media, including authoritative American newspapers, have reported on it.
This is Although it can help WeChat Research Institute become famous, there are also risks hidden behind it.”
Everyone nodded again.
Crisis is crisis, and when there is danger, there is opportunity.
The attention at the exhibition and the booming bookings are certainly opportunities for development, but they are also risks and challenges.
"In terms of hardware, the two new products do not have much technological breakthroughs.
Although WeChat Research Institute has applied for patents on many key nodes, it has not yet formed strong technical barriers and cannot stop major international companies at all."
“Especially console game manufacturers like Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo, they already have a fairly mature ecosystem in the field of console games.
Once they develop their efforts in this field, the products they launch will be more Competitiveness, by then, it will be too late for us to regret it.”
When Yang Huan heard this, he couldn't help laughing and looked at Zhuang Zicheng.
"Zicheng, you still underestimate him."
Zhuang Zicheng also nodded, obviously acknowledging his brother-in-law's evaluation of Chen Dong.
"Chen Dong, what should we do according to you?"
Yang Huan asked.
Chen Dong ignored the conversation between Yang Huan and Zhuang Zicheng, but thought about it carefully.
"I feel like there's only one option now."
"Tell me about it," Yang Huan asked with interest.
"In the past few years, the game consoles launched by Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo have obviously provided rich social elements.
However, these game console manufacturers have made a mess in the social field, but they refuse to give up."
"The reason is simple.
They know very well that the added value generated by the game platform is amazing, such as the interaction between players.
However, this part of the value is received for free by social media and has nothing to do with them, so they are not willing to work hard on their own.
The benefits and value I worked so hard to create were taken away by social media, so I knew I was doing a bad job, but I still had to do it.”
"What WeChat is best at is social networking, and it has accumulated amazing popularity and experience in the field of mobile games.
It has done an even better job in integrating games and social networking.
The only shortcoming is that it does not have its own console and c-game platform, and this This is exactly the most important element to promote virtual reality helmets.”
"So, WeChat has no choice but to acquire or invest in a game console company or a game platform company, and transform it into a home entertainment center with social attributes that can replace C computers and form its own ecosystem."
After a pause, Chen Dong urged with a sense of crisis: "And it must be fast, time is life."
When Yang Huan heard this, he couldn't help laughing and clapped with both hands.
Gradually, Zhuang Zicheng and others also applauded.
I have to say, this technical geek is really a talent, and he has a very accurate vision.
What he said seems to be nothing, but everyone knows that there are so many great people in WeChat Research Institute, and they have been exploring and preparing for these things for more than half a year.
If he were a corporate executive, it wouldn't be a big deal.
The strange thing is that he is just an otaku This is so subversive Chen Dong did not expect that his long speech would receive such applause, which made him a little at a loss and seemed restless.
When Yang Huan saw his appearance, he felt funny in his heart.
This is what an otaku should look like But I also made a decision in my heart.
I have to try my best to retain this guy.
"Chen Dong, what you said is quite good.
If I had heard it six months ago, I would have been enlightened."

Chen Dong was delighted at first, but was soon stunned.
Why did I feel enlightened when I heard it half a year ago?
Could it be that now that you hear it, you don’t have it?
What does this mean?
After all, Chen Dong was a smart man and quickly realized the problem.
"Master Huan, could it be that you had already thought of this level half a year ago and started planning in advance?"
This time, his face was full of shock.
Fortunately, he thought his ideas were so advanced just now, and it felt like everyone was sleeping and I was alone.
But now, he found that he was a little too self-righteous.
WeChat Research Institute has so many talents and so many big names:
