If it is not this venture, Zengo can sit and enjoy tens of millions of options, generous remuneration, there are good positions.  For the perfect time and space dedicated to the last 8 years of life the most valuable time, Zengo feel it is when they start to do their ideal game products. Asked to leave the driving force of entrepreneurship, Zengo Smile said, mainly to lose weight. It is said that after 2007 perfect time and space listing, he gained a full 40 pounds in two years! Poor 髀 meat! " Zengo quoted a novel in the Kingdoms of the allusions, when it is, Liu Bei married the younger sister of Sun Quan Shangxiang, was trapped in the East Wu, all day good wine fine meat hospitality, also issued "髀 Meat Alive" lament.  Joke to joke, since the venture in just a few months, he has been solid thin down 20 kg. "Dwelling" inside the Guo Haiping once said, every day, a series of numbers jumped out of the mind ... At least 400 to live in the city. "Zeng ge half Jest half Earnest said:" We now every day opens the eye, must spend at least 20000 yuan, the pressure equals Guo Haiping 50 times times.  "It seems to be the main reason for his rapid weight loss," stopgap said. At some point, Zengo is almost born of the game, the 70 generation of strangers, since childhood love games, talk about the arcade era of "Double Dragon", "Tomahawk", "1942", Red and white machine era of the "mice Steal Rice", "Super Mario", are familiar.  But as a child, he never thought that the game would completely change his life in the summer after many years. Zengo seriously described that summer afternoon, the vicious sun, dusty back street, he lowered his tou to work, waiting for him in front of the dull work and lazy colleagues, everything is not good, everything is expected.  Occasionally, he looked up and saw the new computer room in the street screen, suddenly stunned: there is a dragon! "There's a dragon in there!" 15 years later, he still felt the consternation. In fact, there are not only dragons, but also stone ghosts, castles, lightning, fireballs, knights dressed in golden armor, many never, unheard of monsters, treasures, magic, Heroes ... We now know that it is only a PC game, "Magic Door hero Invincible", and for the Zengo 15 years ago, is tantamount to accidentally fell into the door of time and space.  One eye for thousands of people, he thought, had found the direction of life. The next trajectory of life is logical, 1998, Zengo alone to Beijing (at that time only a handful of original game research and development companies, such as "target", "octopus", "leading" and so on, mostly concentrated in Beijing), first into the computer World (CCW) settle down, and use the advantage of learning Chinese origin to start writing for the major game media; 2002 joined the industry's famous development team "ancestral Dragon Studio" (that is, the predecessor of Perfect time and space), has participated in the development of the "Da Qin Jag", "Bloody Battle of Shanghai Beach", "Burma", such as a variety of stand-alone games; 2004 Chi in the Archosaur studio based on the establishment of a perfect time and space,Immediately into the "Perfect World," the tension of research and development, 2006 "Perfect World" on-line and stable operation, Zengo put forward the "Sin-sen" project plan and was adopted, when Ren "the master plan, the project leader."  2007, in the "Perfect World", "Wu Xian", "Wulin rumored" three driving wagon, perfect time and space officially landed Nasdaq, ZENGO also promoted to the group's strategic development director. With the advent of perfect time and space, Zengo also shares a generous return, plus a variety of bonuses and options, earning far more than 1 million yuan.  It is the two years of excellent life, weight from 130 kg to 170 kg. September 2009, the perfect time and space of the stock price reached an unprecedented 49 dollars.  Zengo formally submitted his resignation to the company at the end of his eight-year tenure in a few months. Of course, no one believes Zengo's departure is just to lose weight.  In his speech, he was deeply buried in another complex-"debt repayment." Come out and mix, always return. Zengo has been almost paranoid that Chinese gamers owe all players a "blood debt". Things may go back to more than 10 years ago in a stand-alone era, a certain release was blown before the unparalleled game, thoroughly hurt a whole generation of Chinese players heart. He was just a regular player, have been waiting all night to wait for the game's starting, later, in their own development of the online games "Perfect World", Zengo to borrow NPC's mouth out of this dull pain: "You know in the perfect world, people deep heart deepest fear is what?" It's a blood lion! When it was born, it completely destroyed the majority of the world's trust and hope.  What does it mean to compare 100,000 of the Legion of resentment? The trust and hope of a generation of players ...  More than 10 years later, a new generation of players have no traces of pain, the industry a prosperous scene, "Blood lion" imitation if a magic spell, a large number of plagiarism, cottage, fast-food online games in the Magic spell under the constant gush, continue to nibble on the player's trust and hope. "I used to compare Chinese original games to original football, but nowadays even Chinese football has a spirit." Zengo wry smile way.  He believes that, like Chinese fans, Chinese players have a strong resistance, the game makers need only to come up with the minimum sincerity, so that players see the intention to develop products, they will gain their support, commercial success naturally. However, the high technical threshold of large-scale online games, long research and development cycle, the need for a large amount of funding support, many small and medium-sized research and development teams are under the pressure of capital to Zeize.  As a start-up company, how to get investors trust and support? Zengo did not answer this question directly, but chatted about a very classic PC game "Tai ge aspire to pass 1", the game is a Japanese Warring states era of the lowest level of "Stroke Light" (infantry) Toto, step by step into the Minister of politics, was revered as "Tai Ge" legendary story. In the early game, Toto in order to complete the task of foster around, in the wild oftenWill encounter the enemy's generals to provoke, the wrong response will have a life of worry. And one of the most practical of Toto's alternative strategies is "the greatest ambition". That is, to the enemy generals to confide their lofty ambitions, often will have the magic, and even the enemy as friends.  This little design Zengo touched, he believes in real life is also so: firm their own ambitions, poured all enthusiasm, what, will eventually get people's approval. Determined to leave the business, Zengo a phone call to a former old friend on Wall Street. Jason does not understand the online games industry, ten years ago, they are because of the common interest in ancient poetry and the Internet to meet, but in earnest listening to the Zengo "," after the first time, Jason remitted 300,000 dollars. Want to like the ancient poetry word of many people to retain some of the generosity of the ancients, Zengo MSN on the signature can be a note: "When it rains for the world, on the intersection must have the ancient wind."  "In this friend's referral, more investors into the step-by-step, the newly established Beijing Fun Tour Horizon Network Technology Co., Ltd., in a very short period of time to get more than million dollars angel investment, no" duanliang "of worry means that can be more calmly choose a round of financing partners.  Now, the fun tour is not lack of "ambition" and "capital", another factor of entrepreneurship-"talent" is how to solve it? In role-playing games, each career has a unique "talent", and Zengo believes that "digging and aggregating talent" is one of its own natural skills.  Prior to the perfect time in office, he had a force for the company has introduced dozens of research and development personnel, now this group of people all because of outstanding performance to become the core backbone, and some even in the senior positions. Since the perfect departure and Chi have a "gentlemen's agreement", Zengo did not take away from the perfect directly a person, but the previous separation of the "perfect World" Master planning Wang Zhenyu, art director Wang and other people have joined the fun tour of the entrepreneurial team. In just a few months, the fun Tour has a complete game development team of more than 50 people.  Half of these are Zengo's contacts in the industry for years, and the other half is still a dig. "Any one industry's top talent, usually will not appear in the recruitment market, need to go out, a professional QQ group, forum slowly bubble, slowly looking for." "How do you find talent that can be successful with experience and smell?" Zengo thinks "you have to be more professional than they are." "The fun of a numerical planning, is Zengo in a well-known strategy web game to meet." At that time with the in-depth understanding of the game, only to spend a little time and price, Zengo in the game id "had gu qu" kill the ranks of the enemy jumped into the first, attracted a lot of attention.  More than 20 years of player career, eight years of research and development experience, a variety of large-scale online games, the successful experience, "professionalism" is the Zengo that is one of the core competitiveness of fun tour. Access to talent is only the first step, the online games industry has developed rapidly in recent years, talent competition is also unusually fierce. How can we retain talent and stimulate the enthusiasm of our talents? Zengo againGet inspiration from the game itself. He himself is "World of Warcraft" veteran player, based on the "World of Warcraft" large copy system, the player has a more complete equipment allocation system, that is DKP (Dragon Kill Point is intended for the Dragon Slayer points). The principle of DKP is very simple, players participate in guild activities, according to attendance and special contributions to get points, and then by virtue of the award of various boss drop reward items.  Because the DKP is expendable, not only take care of the interests of the old staff, the new person will also have the opportunity to the fore. Fun Tour ready to put this whole set of DKP system into the company's management, will continue to introduce DKP drop rewards, small to leave, raise opportunities, large to bonuses, company shares, as the company's growth will even launch cars, homes. The point, Zengo adds, is that it's fun.  He believes that mediocrity, apathy and boredom are the source of all things that are frightening. Today, the fun tour of product development line has been full throttle, is expected at the end of 2010, the main product 3DMMORPG "Infinite World" will be online testing. According to Zengo revealed that the online games used a lot of "wild" design, only in terms of charging mode, in addition to the traditional prop fees, there is a new "world fees", players can only for their favorite content to pay.  In the "Infinite World" will also launch a martial arts theme of the Web game, tentatively named "the most martial arts." The fun tour will be a very wild company, Zeng-GE, who once again used the word "wild".  He said that before the perfect is also Cubeb road blue Ray, from more than 10 of people's studio has been to Nasdaq, for the hardships of entrepreneurship and various uncertainties, already have full psychological expectations. But, from ancient to ancient, no one's achievement can surpass his dream. "Zeng GE recent Photos
