Chapter 140 "Tough Decisions"

Because Meng Zhe intends to abduct the idea of arrogant QQ Penguin Niang, the original work was only to make the official version of Plants vs. Zombies, a Kuanglan Entertainment Software Company, and there is more work to localize and optimize the instant messaging software ICQ.

After all, this is only the era when ICQ has just appeared, so the original ICQ is quite simple in terms of the program kernel and interface, far from being compared with the arrogant QQ Penguin Girl of later generations.

Therefore, what the Kuanglan Entertainment Software Company needs to do is to download an original ICQ package first, and then do reverse engineering while studying the source code while doing localization.

As for the user interface of ICQ, it naturally needs to be changed. For Meng Zhe, this is so simple that he doesn't need to think about it - just copy the interface of Tencent QQ.

Of course, because of the limitations of the times, Meng Zhe can't integrate all the functions of QQ Penguin Niang in later generations. He can only wait for the rapid development of China's Internet speed and then slowly add it.

But this is also good, so that new functions can be added again and again in the future to attract more users.

But even so, under the control of Meng Zhe's 'guidance', the ICQ that is about to be localized has still changed in at least three aspects. The first is to change the name of ICQ to QQ. This is what Meng Zhe would do that he didn't want to do, because if he still use ICQ or OICQ or something else. In the future, when ICQ is acquired by AOL, it will definitely be a lawsuit.

The second modification is the user's chat interface. The originally simple to rough chat interface has been beautified according to the appearance of Tencent QQ in later generations. Of course, the QQ show image on the right side of QQ within a year or two will definitely not be outstanding.

The third modification is the official emoji - the first official emoji used by Meng Zhe. It is the Q version of Fairy Sword, which is divided into the Yuntianhe version of the male expression and the Han Lingsha version of the female expression. A total of more than 40 pictures is less than 1M. There is no doubt that the original painter of these Q expressions is Meng Zhe himself.

As for the transmission of pictures, there will be no problem, because according to Meng Zhe's proposal, when these official expressions are used, they are actually sent command words without real expressions. After the other party's client receives the command word, it will be automatically interpreted as the corresponding emoji, which will be removed from the official emoji and displayed in the dialogue.

Therefore, the real transmission is only a few bytes of content. Even if it is still the era of 56K kittens, there is no problem at all.

Meng Zhe's proposal opened Bian Xiaochun and others, who have been playing stand-alone games, and praised Meng Zhe for his talent and future in software programming. This made Meng Zhe very embarrassed, because he really just plagiarized the successful experience of Tencent QQ in later generations - to be fair, although QQ Penguin Niang is an arrogant lady who can make 'difficult decisions', her own functions and so on are still quite good, otherwise it is impossible to do almost Exclusive the domestic instant messaging software market.

In addition to these three aspects, there are basically no other changes to the localized ICQ. Obviously, the multi-person dialogue function such as the group function will be released slowly in the future.

For the sake of confidentiality, there are many functions that Meng Zhe didn't even tell Bian Xiaochun and others, so naturally to avoid leaking secrets. If Meng Zhe doesn't plan to do QQ, then it doesn't matter if you say these things casually. Now that you want to do QQ, you must keep them confidential, because these things have changed from worthless to high-value business secrets.

However, after guiding these tasks, Meng Zhe immediately became a shopkeeper and turned his attention back to Tianjiao Society itself.

At this time, Kong Lan had already left for the United States to personally investigate a series of problems with Blizzard's cross-shareholding and cross-share exchange ratio.

And also at this time, Yanjing Cartoon, which is also a pilot publication of the 5155 project, together with Tianjiao Society and Anime Youth, suddenly received a large amount of capital injection, and the publishing house also changed to a new president. If Meng Zhe had noticed this, he would probably be surprised by the new president of North Carolina, because the name of the new president of North Carolina is Tang Gexuan.

But the problem is that although the 5155 project is still in name, the current reality is that Tianjiao Society and Anime Youth are the dominant family, occupying about 80% of the market share of animation journals, and the sales of various comics are also far ahead of other magazines and publishing houses.

In fact, this is also a very normal thing, because there is no other similar publishing house except Tianjiao Society, which will make great efforts to lay up reading sales channels across the country. After more than a year of development, Tianjiao Club has more than 2,000 animation shop franchise stores across the country.

Similarly, there are few people in other magazines. While publishing comic magazines, they will distract their energy and money and the development of animation peripheral products, not to mention reading to do TV animation - in a sense, the minds of other animation magazine managers are far less than Meng. Zhe, a reborn person, thinks more and thinks far.

Speaking of the development of animation peripheral products, Meng Zhe couldn't help but think of Zhang Xinyu, the descendant of the clay figurine Zhang who chased him all the way from Yanjing just a few days after he came back from Yanjing.

Meng Zhe really didn't expect that Zhang, who was originally a clay figurine who was a traditional drama character at most, would be willing to run for the clay figurine sculpture of animation characters.

And the century-old clay figurine Zhang, combined with the 'new comics' that attracts young people, what kind of existence will the clay figurine make?

Value!

It will be very valuable!

Meng Zhe's first reaction was to measure it with money. Compared with the clay figurine in animation, the price was relatively low.

But with the joining of clay figurine Zhang Chuanren, the way of measuring this value is different - with the reputation of clay figurine Zhang, you can completely create a brand-new animation pottery brand in one go!

As for the sales, there is no need to worry. "Immortal Sword" and "I-am-legend" will be broadcast in overseas markets soon. Meng Zhe has reason to believe that these two cartoon pottery products with clay figurine Zhang as the brand can make a small profit overseas, especially in the Japanese market.

Meng Zhe didn't even consider the problem of low-price sales at all. He just wanted to sell this kind of clay man as a luxury goods, just like the high value-added product in the world in the Tang and Song Dynasties - porcelain.

However, Meng Zhe also knows very well that it is impossible for him to sell these 'made-in- clay figurine Zhang' animation clay figurine as popular as once porcelain. The target is only those foreign otaku or fake otaku who like animation.

But Meng Zhe doesn't feel anything, because he is still young, which makes almost all successful people jealous, so he has enough time to slowly make the brand bigger. Maybe one day, I will instentionly achieve the level of Hasbro and Disney.

When he thought of this, Meng Zhe suddenly remembered that he just borrowed the name of clay figurine Zhang, and it seemed to be a little inappropriate not to create a brand. Therefore, Meng Zhe began to think about the brand name very seriously - at that time, whether the sales are booming after the launch of the product or the sales results are not ideal, it can continue to operate as a sub-brand of 'Confuciang Meng Huazhang'.

"Which one, Xiao Meng... Boss, how about the brand name is Xun Zhimei?"

When Meng Zhe was thinking about the brand name, he would be taken by Meng Zhe to borrow Zhang Xinyu, the famous clay figurine Zhang, as if answering the teacher's questions in class, raising his hand and proposing with a stiff expression.

"The charm of Xun?"

Meng Zhe looked at Zhang Xinyu suspiciously, because he vaguely noticed that the seemingly shy clay figurine Zhang Chuanren, and the motivation for such a proposal was very impure.

Looking at Zhang Xinyu, who was obviously fantasizing about something, so he showed a pure little virgin smile, Meng Zhe understood: Your sister! Well, you son of a bitch, how dare you hit my wife and sister-in-law?!

"Reveto, reconsider."

Meng Zhe, who figured it out, drooped his eyes and slanted his eyes to reject Zhang Xinyu's proposal.

Even Meng Zhe was thinking about not to give up this idea of making money. He sent Zhang Xinyu, a stinky boy who dared to beat his wife and sister-in-law, to Tianjin as a gift.

"Ah? Doesn't this name work? Where, where..." Zhang Xinyu, who rejected the proposal, didn't realize that Meng Zhe was thinking. He really began to think bitterly according to Meng Zhe's request. After thinking about it for about half a minute, Zhang Xinyu really put forward a new name: "Boss Meng... That's called Tianbaohua, okay?"

"Heavenly Treasure? Tianbao Hua..." Meng Zhe read the name several times, and then he decided not to repatriate Zhang Xinyu to Tianjin, because the new name was very popular with his appetite.

The reason is very simple. Although the name is suspected of plagiarizing the idiom to materialize Tianbao, the problem is that Meng Zhe planned to sell these products overseas from the beginning, and the name "Tianbaohua" is obviously very in line with this sales strategy.

"I said Zhang Xinyu, I didn't see that you were very talented. How did you come up with this name?"

So, Meng Zhe looked at Zhang Xinyu with a slightly appreciative look and said. Although this boy has an attempt to coveted the two big loli of the Jiang family, Meng Zhe will not hate Wu and Wu because of this. Of course, this also has something to do with Meng Zhe's confidence in the two big loli of the Jiang family and does not think that Zhang Xinyu has a chance.

"Ah? Boss Xiao Meng, do you also think this name is good? He found that Meng Zhe seemed to like the new name he thought of. Zhang Xinyu, who was still a little nervous, immediately smiled heartlessly. While laughing, he also said honestly without any scheming: "It's the little boss Meng, in the animation shop chain next to the stadium, the very beautiful little girl. Isn't it called Mu Huahua, and my nickname is Tianbao... So together, it's Tianbao Muhua! But that, Tianbao Muhua is a little too straightforward, so I modified it a little..."

Huh?

Tianbao Muhua?!

Scum... This scum! That's what he came up with?!

Meng Zhe was stunned. He didn't expect that Zhang Xinyu was not plagiarizing idioms, but still picking up girls with the opportunity to name the product! What's more excessive is that this guy not only wants to pick up Meng Zhe's wife and sister-in-law, but also has an intention to Mu Huahuan, a mouthless girl who is at the same table with Meng Zhe!

Very good, Meng Zhe had the idea of sending Zhang Xinyu out of the country again.

But at this time, Zhang Xinyu took out a lifelike clay figurine, a god-like but also a god-like reading version of Mu Huaying clay figurine. Looking at the clay figurine placed on the table, Meng Zhe seemed to have seen the real person of Mu Huayu... The image of the gentle and quiet little sister next door coincided with the image of Mu Huayu who was always silent in his impression, which made Meng Zhe couldn't help but be distracted for a moment.

"Boss Xiao Meng, I accidentally saw this scene yesterday, and then I was completely attracted by this little girl - Mei! It's so beautiful! This kind of tranquility is like the feeling of empty valley orchid. Sure enough, only this kind of beautiful place can be raised!"

Zhang Xinyu, standing opposite Meng Zhe, continued to talk endlessly. He was obviously not a guy who was good at covering up his true thoughts.

However, the reason why Zhang Xinyu left Tianjin Qiao's house and ran to Tianjiao Club was just because he saw the Jiang sisters who made him excited on TV, but now he has just come to Tianjiao Club for a few days and he has obviously lost love!

If there are plants in a person's zodiac, there is no doubt that this guy's zodiac should be a flowery radish.

Meng Zhe hesitated. After thinking about it over and over again, he finally made a final decision: "Well, let's keep this guy. Although this guy is very evil and has a serious tendency to control loli, and even dares to boldly attack my wife and sister-in-law, but there is still a little talent. ......"

In this way, Meng Zhe finally made a difficult decision, leaving Zhang Xinyu and sending it to the animation peripheral product production department, and began to develop and manufacture animation pottery products that integrate clay figurine Zhang's skills.

After finishing this, Meng Zhe's ears finally calmed down, and it was basically time for the school to go to self-study in the evening. So Meng Zhe began to consider whether to go to school, and then told the two big loli and Mu Huahuan of the Jiang family about what had just happened, and gave these three big lolitas who were not deeply involved in the world a big warning, so that they could prevent fire and prevent theft.

Meng Zhe forgot that in theory, he is actually the biggest strange uncle. Zhang Xinyu just said that he could at most take advantage of being a clay figurine Zhang's heir to be a clay figurine. But Meng Zhe swayed around the three world-related big Loli all the time, and even took away the first kiss and cute heart of the two big Loli... Unfortunately, Meng Zhe, who planned to 'whistleblowing', was stranded by new things before he could put his ideas into action.

Yoshida, the editor of the Jiying Society, who is resident in Tianjiao Society, happily held a lot of video tapes and knocked on the door of Meng Zhe's office.

"Meng Sang! The good news is that "Sword of Immortals" will be broadcast on NHK next month! Ah - I got a videotape of Japanese dubbing. Let's take a look! Ah, by the way... I also heard that your CCTV has decided to introduce that "EVA", and now it seems to be selecting the right voice actor..."
