Chapter 1272 The person who dumped the pot was dug out?
Afternoon, Magic City.
As soon as Chretien got off the plane and turned on his phone, he received a series of messages bombarding him.
Looking at the messages in English and Chinese, Chretien, who was dragging his suitcase outside, stopped and frowned.
All bad news!
His face instantly became ugly, and his mood became even worse.
"Monsieur Chretien! Hello, we meet again."
"Welcome back!"
Someone is already waiting at the pick-up port.
Chretien looked up, and he had an impression of this person, named Jin Yong, who was Zhao Xuming's right-hand man in the ioi operation and cooperation department before.
Since the ioi operation and cooperation department is regarded as a key department in Longyu Group, Jin Yong's position is actually not low. Although he is not at the level of Zhao Xuming, he is still considered a senior manager.
As early as when Finger Company and Longyu Group had just reached a cooperation on the operation of the ioi national service, Chretien was the person in charge of the Greater China region, so he had dealt with this group of people long ago.
"Let's get in the car first, and talk while walking. In the past half a year, many things have happened..." Jin Yong's tone was obviously quite emotional.
Chretien nodded, followed Jin Yong and the accompanying driver to the parking lot, and got into the commercial vehicle.
He was just appointed a few days ago and became the head of the Greater China Region again.
But for Chretien, he was not happy at all.
Because the situation this time is even worse than when he was in charge before!
When he succeeded Eric as the person in charge of the Greater China Region, he was still very ambitious.Cooperating with Longyu Group to hold the first ioi global finals, and a series of measures implemented as a result, are all because he firmly believes that his successful experience in the European market can bring the ioi national server back to life.
But now?
There is no such illusion at all.
Since the ioi finals failed and was replaced by Eric, Chretien returned to Finger Company to continue his old business and was responsible for the follow-up development of the game.
For him, this result is not unacceptable. After all, fighting with GOG in the national server has already made him a little physically and mentally exhausted.
Of course, in his eyes, it was a fight, but in the eyes of the higher-ups, it might be a unilateral beating.
So for Chretien, it is more comfortable to go back and continue designing games quietly.
But gradually, he realized that something was wrong.
He began to frequently receive development needs directly from the top management of Dayak Group, such as new paid content, operational activities, etc.
Immediately afterwards, bad news came from ioi.
Although Chretien and Eric have different philosophies, he also knows very well that Eric is definitely a capable person.
If Eric has devoted himself to studying Tengda for such a long time, but still can't make things turn around, even in the future, there probably won't be any turnaround...
The Dayac Group's increasingly frequent intervention revealed increasingly strong profit intentions, which also made Chretien feel uneasy.
This time he took over as the person in charge, not because of promotion, but because everyone knows that the ioi national server has become a mess, and the person in charge of the Greater China District has become the position of the scapegoat, so they don't want to come.
Chretien is very clear that as the person in charge of the Greater China Region, he probably doesn't have any right to speak, and he must perform whatever tasks are assigned by the senior management of the Dayac Group.
Just like this event.
Tenda's 1024 Digital Festival-related game promotions are carried out simultaneously around the world. People from Dayak Group, Finger Company and Longyu Group are all watching, so they got the news immediately.
Since the position of the person in charge of the Greater China region is temporarily vacant, Chretien has not yet had time to take up the post, so this decision was made jointly by the three high-level executives.
After the three parties communicated remotely, they immediately decided to take this opportunity to launch a new skin that had been prepared for a long time, and took the opportunity to increase the price.
Of course, the opinions of the top management of Dayak Group may have accounted for more than 70% of this decision.
Chretien instinctively felt that this matter might be fraudulent. After all, he had dealt with Mr. Pei before, and Mr. Pei's unconventional but deadly trick left a very deep impression on him.
But after all, he has been out of the operation position for a while, and he doesn't know the current situation, and he can't guess what specific routines Tengda is going to play.
What's more, even if he expresses his concerns, this suggestion is dispensable to the executives of the Dayak Group. It is impossible to give up the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to increase prices just because of Chretien's concerns.
As a result, it became what it is now.
Chretien realized that he hadn't gotten off the plane yet, the black pot was already hanging over his head, and he couldn't help but collapse.
Sitting on the commercial vehicle, Chretien sighed softly.
Anyway, as long as it comes, let it be.
If one's destiny is to take the blame, then he has no choice but to carry the burden on his shoulders and move forward.
He looked at Jin Yong, and he was quite satisfied with this person.
Judging from the previous experience of working together, Zhao Xuming is obviously a slippery old fritter. Although he has a good brain, he is good at shaking the pot.
Chretien was born as a designer, and he was born to disagree with Zhao Xuming's ideas. After working together, he even had a big opinion on him.
On the other hand, Jin Yong is more pragmatic and quick to do things. He left a good impression on Chretien during the previous cooperation.
Thinking of this, Chretien said: "There is something that I am hesitant to say."
Jin Yong was stunned for a moment: "Just say what you want, we are old acquaintances, so there is no need to be so alien."
After thinking for a while, Chretien said: "I want to talk to the senior management of your Longyu Group and let you take over as the person in charge of the ioi operation and cooperation department. To be honest, the cooperation between Mr. Zhao and I seems not to be tacit, continue If we continue to cooperate, it may be a drag on both of us, and it will not be conducive to the development of work."
He put it more tactfully, but in fact he disliked Zhao Xuming's incompetence.
Although Zhao Xuming was good at throwing blame, it was all for the people above.
From the management's point of view, Zhao Xuming's blame has indeed been thrown out, and he is clean and there is nothing wrong with him; but for his partner Chretien, the blame can be thrown on himself!
Therefore, Chretien had a big opinion on Zhao Xuming, and the first thing he wanted to do was to replace him.
This is not a very excessive request.
Longyu Group had a very good attitude towards Zhito before, and they basically responded to their needs. After all, ioi is a project that Longyu Group attaches great importance to, and in this game, Zhito has a great say.
Chretien didn't want to beat Zhao Xuming to the end, but simply hoped that he would change his position, a position that was more suitable for him.
The senior management of Longyu Group should satisfy this request.
After hearing this, Jin Yong fell silent.
After hesitating for a while, he said, "Mr. Chretien, there is something that I am also hesitating to say."
Chretien couldn't help laughing: "Didn't you just say that we are old acquaintances, don't we need to be so strangers? Just say it."
After considering it for a while, Jin Yong said: "I am now the person in charge of the ioi operation and cooperation department."
A slightly surprised expression appeared on Chretien's face: "Really? What about Mr. Zhao? Have you been transferred to another department?"
In his view, this result is not very surprising.
How many times has Zhao Xuming been defeated?
To make so many mistakes and still sit comfortably in the person in charge and not be replaced is outrageous.
I don't know what the Longyu Group's senior management is looking for in him, so he is so desperate.
But now it's all right, Longyu Group finally got the hang of it.
Replacing Zhao Xuming would not fundamentally change the situation, but when Chretien thought that the person in charge was replaced by Jin Yong, he could cooperate with peace of mind and save himself the trouble of finding the senior management of Longyu Group. feel very happy.
This is the only good news in the near future.
Jin Yong's expression was a little awkward: "Uh... Let me just say it directly, Mr. Zhao was poached by Tengda, and now he is the person in charge of GOG's national service operations..."
Chretien's eyes widened incredulously, and his whole body froze.
He even doubted his ears a little.
What the hell? !
Zhao Xuming was poached by Tengda, and also became the person in charge of GOG?
Do you want this kind of goods?
Why does Boss Pei want to poach his defeated generals?And he was defeated more than once and never won?
If it wasn't for Jin Yong's serious and serious expression, he almost thought that Jin Yong was joking with himself.
In order to prevent further misunderstandings, Jin Yong hurriedly finished his sentence: "It seems that Eric was also poached by President Pei."
Chretien fell into a long silence, seeming to be fully digesting the information.
It's so unreasonable that you will subconsciously resist and accept it.
After a long time, he asked weakly: "Don't they have a non-compete agreement..."
Jin Yong explained: "I only know that Mr. Zhao's non-competition agreement has been properly resolved, and Mr. Pei will definitely not dig people hard. Such things as non-competition agreements will not be ignored."
Chretien fell silent again, with a complicated expression.
He still disliked Zhao Xuming, but Zhao Xuming went to GOG to be the person in charge!
Why, co-authoring means that I am actually climbing high?
Did I hold Zhao Xuming back?
The clown is me?
Otherwise, why was I forced to come here to be a successor, while Zhao Xuming was promoted step by step, and even became the person in charge of GOG?
Anyone with eyes can see that being the person in charge of the GOG national server has a much more promising future than the ioi national server.
After all, one is thriving and victorious, has entered a perfect virtuous circle, and the user base continues to expand; while the other is dying.
Chretien was silent for a while, but decided to change the subject and stop discussing this.
After all, the more we discuss, the more frustrated we feel.
"Actually, as the person in charge of the Greater China District, there are not many things that can be done, but the tasks that should be completed still need to be completed. We still cooperate well and complete the work with due diligence."
"Of course, to be honest, I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to fundamentally turn the situation around. I can only expect some action from the higher-ups."
Chretien knew that if the current situation wanted to be reversed, not only the game quality had to keep up, but more importantly, the Dayac Group had to be willing to give resources and continue to spend money.
Otherwise, with GOG's efforts to spend money, this tragedy may happen more than once.
This is the same as marching and fighting. In addition to the combat capability of the army, the key is more than logistics supply.Tenda has always had a huge resource preference for GOG, and is willing to give up huge profits to seize the market. It is Tianke who is eager to make profits for Shangdayak Group.
"Wait a moment."
"Could it be that Eric and Zhao Xuming did this event?"
Thinking of this event, combined with the fact that Zhao Xuming was poached, Chretien suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of this possibility.
For this event, he still doesn't know the specific details, after all, he was on the plane when the incident happened.
But after a brief look at the information, I also understood the cause and effect.
He felt desperate to clean up this mess just after taking office.
The point is that there is no way to clean it up, so what can I do now?It is absolutely impossible to apologize and reduce the price, because the damaged reputation is difficult to recover. After the price is reduced, it is absolutely impossible to increase the price in the future.
Let the players enjoy the sweetness, and the players will scold wildly when the price of the skin increases in the future, so what's the matter?
If he really did this, there is absolutely no way to explain it to the senior management of the Dayak Group.
And it doesn't count if he said something like a price cut.
The final result of this matter is mostly as if nothing happened, there will be no apology, and the price will not be changed.
At least the price of skins has gone up.
At most, Chretien is doing some activities to compensate the players, there is no other way.
Thinking that such a fatal blow came from Eric... Chretien's mood was very complicated, even a little sour.
Jin Yong thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure about this, but Mr. Zhao has only been here for a week, so he shouldn't be taking over the job so soon."
Chretien balances out a little.
If he knew that Mr. Zhao was killing all directions, his mentality would collapse!
Jin Yong said again: "As for our side, don't worry, I am very clear about the current situation, and I must do my best to cooperate with your work."
In fact, the two of them are very clear about the current situation of ioi, but even if some things are true, they cannot be said.
Although Jin Yong could not feel the change in the attitude of the top management of the Dayak Group from the finger company like Chretien, but he could feel the change in the attitude of the top management of the Longyu Group.
The current ioi operation and cooperation department has actually not received so much attention.
Because the ioi national server is really dying, and there is no point in investing resources and energy!
This time GOG can be said to be a heavy blow to ioi, and the ioi national server has also been greatly affected.
It stands to reason that Longyu Group is the party whose interests have been harmed, and should be gnashing their teeth with hatred for this matter. After all, the income of the ioi national server may be severely hit again.
But the top management of Longyu Group was indifferent to this.
What if you are angry?In the current state, the ioi national server is hopeless.
That being the case, it is better to save the resources and prepare to use them for the new game jointly developed by Tianhuo Studio and Tenda.
Therefore, exchange Zhao Xuming for a new game, as long as the new game can succeed and replace the ioi national server's position within the Longyu Group, it will be very profitable.
Next, as long as the data of this new game is not bad, Longyu Group will transfer most of the resources from ioi.
Jin Yong also knew this, so he, like Chretien, completed his work tasks step by step based on the idea of "being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day".
Chretien nodded: "Okay, let's go to the company first, I have to get a little familiar with the work here."
