With the vigorous publicity and promotion of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment, the hot topic of "Fate: Grand Order" swept the whole of June, which also made Mei Fang, the founder of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment, once again a hot topic as the distributor of the work.
Although there are few offline discussions about Mei Fang in real life, there are also endless discussions about Mei Fang online, especially on campus forums:
[Today I found a wild webmaster in the cafeteria in the North District! My classmate was very brave and went up to ask for his autograph, but was decisively rejected by the webmaster.]
[Damn, the webmaster is acting like a big shot, isn't he? I thought he looked quite friendly, but I didn't expect him to be this kind of person! ]
[That’s not the case… He said he was just a normal student in school, and we shouldn’t treat him like a celebrity.]
[That’s true. If every one of us asked for his autograph and took a photo with him when we saw him, he would probably be annoyed to death by us every day.]
[I give 648 yuan to the webmaster every week. Now I am also a spiritual shareholder of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment]
[You are so rich, why don’t you give me some! ]
[The upstairs upstairs, do you need a girlfriend? Dating is not much cheaper than playing games.]
[Hahahaha it’s so funny, women will only affect the speed of our shipment]
[So Pengda boys are very cool]
[You said the webmaster can earn tens of millions a day from FGO, why is he still studying this? ]
[Didn’t I say before that it’s all about experiencing life and enjoying youth! What else can I do? ]
[It's rare that I'm in the same class as the webmaster, so I have to find a way to get an internship opportunity in the webmaster's company! ]
[The above, why are you just thinking here? Others’ internship recruitment is already in the third round. Don’t you know it?]
[ah?]
Mei Fang, who entered the university as the president of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment, naturally could not have a university life full of singing and laughing with his classmates. In addition to daily study and experiencing daily university life, Mei Fang also carried out relatively in-depth cooperation and exchanges with Pengda itself.
At the graduation ceremony of the senior class, Mei Fang attended and spoke as a special guest among the representatives of the students who stayed on campus. In addition to thanking the seniors for their contributions to the development of Pengda and congratulating everyone on their success at Pengda, he also extended several olive branches to everyone -
First, Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment provides a green channel for seniors from Pengda University to avoid screening their resumes, providing an extra opportunity for those who failed the postgraduate entrance examination and still have not determined their future careers;
The second is additional incubation support. Pengda itself actually has a lot of bonuses and entrepreneurial incubation support, but that is more concentrated in the School of Computer Science rather than the brand new School of Game Design.
Mei Fang hopes to attract more outstanding talents in the independent game design industry from this game design academy and create a good ecological reputation and content inventory for TABTAB, so he has formulated a new plan.
At the previous Fangciyuan product launch conference, Mei Fang and Lin Youxi jointly announced the holding of the gamejam competition, and some of the winning works came from students of Pengcheng University.
Mei Fang will give priority to providing a small angel investment for the works of these seniors to help them realize and improve the creativity of gamejam, and provide channel promotion and priority contract support. This is also similar to a scholarship mechanism, dedicated to Mei Fang's expansion of his own network in Pengda and absorbing future talents in the gaming field from the ivory tower.
Jiang Peihuan, a red-haired senior who had just enrolled at Mei Fang, also resigned from the position of student union president at the end of this month and had a long exchange with Mei Fang at the venue.
From the conversation with Senior Jiang, Mei Fang learned that Jiang has not graduated yet, but is continuing her studies in game design at Pengda University.
This master's degree program was just opened this year. As the first senior to try it, Jiang Peihuan plans to continue to explore this field in depth. Mei Fang certainly does not want to miss this senior who has a very high reputation in the school. At the end of the conversation, she invited her to join Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment at any time after graduation, but was politely rejected by Jiang Peihuan.
“Thanks for the kindness, but I am learning these concepts purely out of interest. As for business… I still hope to make a decision after I graduate and take over some things at home. I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, rather than being competitors.”
Jiang Peihuan's few simple words showed her extraordinary family background, which also made Mei Fang realize that he was overconfident.
Obviously, although Mei Fang is a popular figure now, it does not mean that Jiang Peihuan will admire him so much.
A young man who started from scratch and is worth over 100 million is certainly rare in this era, but without the wealth and connections accumulated by his family lineage, he may just be seen as a nouveau riche who is eager for quick success in the eyes of the wealthy families in Pengcheng.
A university is a microcosm of society, and there are many unfathomable elites in Pengcheng University. In addition to his own accumulation, Mei Fang should also pay attention to discovery and observation during his study and life in university.
After all, most of Mei Fang's achievements are actually brought about by experience. There is still a big gap compared with those developers with family lineage and natural genius. The former is enough to become a part of his network, while the latter can become the core technology and professional talents of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment like Youxi and Guo Yun.
June is the graduation season. While Mei Fang was busy celebrating the graduation of her seniors, Xia Yuan was also celebrating the arrival of a new stage in life for one of her good friends.
Xia Yuan got up early that day. When Mei Fang got up and went to the living room, she saw Xia Yuan lying on the sofa, spreading her feet, playing with cats and talking on the phone.
Mei Fang stroked Xiao Bai, who had just been ignored. Lin Youxi, who was wearing an apron, came over with cat food and was about to add cat food to the cats' feeders. Mei Fang took it over and said, "Let me help you."
"Don't sprinkle too much on you, it will go bad easily."
"Who else could it be? Today is the day when the college entrance examination results are announced."
"Oh, this is Peng Xue's achievement..."
Mei Fang scratched her head. "I feel like she's even more excited than when I got my college entrance exam results."
"Yuanyuan is just like that... Hey, I told you that you spilled too much cat food."
Lin Youxi knocked Mei Fang on the head to teach him a lesson, then snatched the cat food and Xiaobai from Mei Fang's hands, "You always give so much at once, look how fat Daju has become, like a ball."
"It's already a big orange cat. It will get fat even if you don't feed it like this..."
"At least it can't be us who fed him. You are the one who is most responsible for Daju being so fat."
Mei Fang felt a little aggrieved after being scolded by Lin Youxi. The big orange cat next to him saw Mei Fang being scolded and jumped around happily and meowed.
The six kittens left by Sanhua Niangniang are now more than three months old. They have grown from kittens into lively little kittens, and they are usually very naughty.
Although it is a bit difficult to take care of six cats, Xia Yuan believes that the six cats are brothers and sisters and should live together, so she rejects the idea of others giving away the cats.
Of course, after being together for so long, the three of them have begun to get used to being with the cat every day. It can be said that they have become as close as a family.
However, Mei Fang has been very busy recently and has not had much chance to stay at home and pet her cat.
"By the way, Ah Fang, let me tell you something."
"How...you said?"
"I'm actually quite interested in the AI creation function you mentioned to me last time using data models. I think it's not just AI painting that you mentioned, but also AI writing and even AI engines. I think these are all areas that can be explored."
"In the future, I want to lead a group of people to explore this market and try to overcome the current technical barriers, but I have to understand more about this first, so I may have to spend a lot of time studying it in depth recently."
Mei Fang's heart trembled after hearing this, "You... don't want to go abroad for study and exchange, do you?"
Going abroad for exchange is often an inevitable separation for couples in love, but Mei Fang has been with Xia Yuanlin Youxi for too long. If she suddenly says she wants to leave, Mei Fang may really be reluctant to let her go, and of course she will be very worried.
"What's that expression on your face..." Lin Youxi smiled and pinched Mei Fang's cheek, "Of course not. If I go abroad, it will take a year or two for me to come back. By then, you will have given birth to a bunch of kids behind my back with Yuanyuan."
"We are not pigs, how can we give birth to a litter..."
Lin Youxi patted Mei Fang on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry. The Internet is so developed now. I can also study further here at Pengda. It's just that I won't have so much free time. I will be busy and won't have time to cook."
"That doesn't matter... I will definitely support the career you want to pursue. I'll cook for you when the time comes."
"Okay." Lin Youxi nodded.
Is it too early or too late to start working on AI now? Mei Fang is a little unsure. After all, cutting-edge topics like AI are beyond the understanding of a programmer like him who only knows how to code games.
As for Youxi... her talent supports her to go further, and Mei Fang has no reason to stop her from pursuing what she likes to do.
Even if it was really for the career of Yuanxi Interactive Entertainment, Mei Fang felt that she also liked delving into these technical difficulties.
Mei Fangzheng and Lin Youxi were chatting animatedly here, when Xia Yuan suddenly jumped up excitedly, and the shoulder straps of her nightgown slipped down.
At this moment, she didn't care about her own loss of composure, and hurriedly shouted excitedly to Mei Fanglin Youxi:
"Afang, Yesi, good news!"
"Xiaoxue scored 644 points in the college entrance examination. She is sure to get into Pengda this year!"
Okay, it’s finished.
