Shanghainese cuisine is relatively acceptable to Americans. And Jimmy probably knows Britney's taste, so the dishes he ordered are all acceptable to her.
As for Yu Dong and others, there is no problem eating Shanghai cuisine.
Britney complained that she had put on a lot of weight recently and stuffed food into her mouth. It didn't appear that she had any intention of managing her figure.
The meal lasted for more than an hour. After the meal, Britney happily suggested that everyone go out for a walk together, but Jimmy said, "In the past few days since Yu Dong and the others came to the United States, they didn't even have time to catch up on the jet lag. They were running around everywhere every day.
They are running to participate in activities and deal with company matters, so let them go back and rest early. We will talk about shopping later when we have the opportunity."
Hearing what Jimmy said, Britney looked very regretful. She took Cheng Yanqiu's hand and said, "I should have met you when we were in Jinling before. Jimmy is right, you are too busy these days, and
I'm too tired, so I won't waste your time anymore. Let's go out and play together when we have time later."
Cheng Yanqiu smiled and said, "How about this? The Deep Space Park will hold a science fiction themed event next month. If you have time then, you can go to Jinling and I will take you around Jinling."
"Is that okay? When is your sci-fi themed event exactly? I'm not particularly busy in August, so I should have time." Britney looked at Jimmy, her eyes full of anticipation.
Although Britney is very lively, she relies heavily on others to help her make decisions in most things. Whenever she encounters any problem, she always asks Jimmy first.
If Yu Dong didn't know Jimmy very well, he would have doubted whether Jimmy is CPU Britney.
Seeing Britney looking at him, Jimmy said with a smile, "Go back and confirm your itinerary. If you have a schedule, you can go there, but don't go in private. I'll ask the company to send you a formal invitation letter.
Just treat it like running a notice. In this way, you can play around openly in Jinling without having to worry about being photographed."
"Yes, this is a good idea. There are many people participating in the event. When you pass, I will take you to hang out with others." Cheng Yanqiu said with a smile.
Britney hugged Jimmy's arm and said excitedly, "You are so amazing that you can think of such a way."
Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu looked at each other, and both twitched their mouths. This kind of green tea line, coming from Britney's mouth, didn't seem so green tea. Maybe it's because Britney originally felt a bit silly.
.
Even though Jimmy has been through many storms, he was a little unsettled by Britney's praise, "Ahem, no, no, it's just a routine operation. We can go there together then, as well as Matthew McConaughey and the others,
There will be many artists together, so you won’t be too conspicuous.”
"good……"
Britney was nodding her head when the cell phone in her bag suddenly rang.
"Excuse me."
After apologizing, Britney walked to the side to answer the phone.
I didn’t know who was calling. Britney’s expression didn’t look good. After saying a few words, Britney hung up the phone.
When she came back, Jimmy asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
Britney smiled and said, "Nothing, my dad asked me where I was."
Jimmy nodded, "It's okay. I'll take you back later. Yu Dong and the others have their own car."
After saying that, Jimmy turned to look at Yu Dong, "You go back by yourself, I will take Britney home."
"Yes." Yu Dong nodded and added, "I will go find you tomorrow morning and I have something to tell you."
"great, see you tomorrow."
After Britney and Jimmy left, Cheng Yanqiu said with a smile, "It can be seen that Jimmy still cares about Britney very much. He probably didn't want Britney to be photographed when he went out with us, and deliberately said that we were tired.
I have to go back and rest."
"That's right, Jimmy is probably worried that she will have a rebellious mentality if she directly says that she doesn't want us to hang out together because she doesn't want her to be photographed. If you put it this way, she might be more able to accept it."
Being photographed with Britney has no impact on Jimmy. After all, he is a businessman, and he is still a man. Those gossips in the entertainment media not only cannot defeat him, but may even become his "
"Medal". When people talk about this kind of diamond king, they certainly hope that he will have more things to talk about for their entertainment, and those women who are rumored to be gossips are the things to talk about.
But Britney is different. She is a pop star and a woman. If she is photographed with Jimmy, all kinds of strange and vicious remarks will soon come out.
A young woman who is less than twenty years old and a rich man who is forty years old will always make some people think differently.
These remarks are likely to have an impact on Britney's career.
Not letting Britney go out with them was Jimmy's way of protecting Britney. In order to prevent Britney from feeling controlled, Jimmy would tell Yu Dong and the others that they were tired and not to disturb her.
In order to make Britney happy, he planned to have the company officially invite Britney to a science fiction themed event.
From all indications, Jimmy and Britney are really likely to get married.
…
Although Jimmy made an excuse, saying that Yu Dong and the others were tired and needed to rest, he was actually not wrong. Yu Dong and Cheng Yanqiu had hardly had much rest in the past two days after landing in the United States, and they were indeed quite tired.
So after separating from Jimmy and the others, the couple returned to the hotel to rest.
Since I had no other plans for the next morning, I slept very well.
It was only when the phone on the bedside rang that Yu Dong woke up leisurely. It was almost nine o'clock.
After Yu Dong washed up, the two met in Jimmy's room.
Jimmy's room is much better than Yu Dong's room. It doesn't mean that Jimmy's room has higher specifications than Yu Dong's. Both rooms are luxury suites in the hotel, but Jimmy's room was booked for a long term.
Whenever Jimmy comes to Los Angeles, he will stay in this room, so there are a lot of things in the room, and the curtains, sheets, and quilts have all been changed. When you walk in, it doesn't feel like a hotel, but like a home.
.
After making a cup of coffee for Yu Dong, Jimmy sat down opposite Yu Dong with a smile, "Well, not bad, I see that your condition today is much better than last night. Next time you come here, you should extend the time a little longer.
Let’s rest for a few days and then start working again.”
Yu Dong blew the coffee foam inside the quilt and curled his lips and said, "Then why can't you arrange less work for me? In this way, I can have more time to rest."
"Look at what you said, who am I doing all this for?" Jimmy took a sip of coffee with a smile, and then said, "Don't say that the bald monk is hairless. When I arranged work for Yu Hua and the others,
I also asked you specifically for your opinion. It was you who told me to put more burdens on their shoulders and let them contribute to the cause of promoting Chinese culture. Why is it different for you?"
"No, don't compare me with them. Among them, except Feiyu who is a little more diligent, the others are just idle all day long and don't do anything serious. Especially Yu Hua, who brags about how fast he can type on his computer every day.
But all his typing speed is used in chatting with people, and he may not be able to squeeze out a single sound in a few months of actual writing. As for me, it is not an exaggeration to say that he will never stop writing?"
"Hehe, you look like you have quite a lot of complaints. If I had known this earlier, I should have arranged more work for Yu Hua and the others, asking them to do book signings during the day and attend TV interviews at night. In addition to the ABC interview
, and many media outlets sent us invitations, hoping to conduct TV interviews with you, but I declined them all."
Yu Dong thought for a while and said, "In this way, in addition to Wang Xiaobo, the others will arrange more TV interviews."
"Why Wang Xiaobo excepted?" Jimmy asked.
"His heart is not very good. It's better not to make him too tired."
"Well, you do need to be careful. But he has recovered well in the past two years and looks much better. By the way, you said last night that you wanted to talk to me about something. What was it?"
"It's not a big deal. You can arrange an itinerary for me just before we leave the United States."
"What trip?"
"A discussion, the participants are you, me, and Mr. and Mrs. Williams. It doesn't need to be too long, just two or three hours."
"Symposium?" Jimmy raised his eyebrows and asked doubtfully: "What was the theme of the seminar? What did you talk to them about yesterday?"
"We talked about two things. One was to allocate some funds to them. I went to the company yesterday to see there were too few people, and many things in the company had been moved away by Vivendi."
Jimmy smiled and nodded, "No problem. In fact, I have already made a grant plan for them. It is divided into three stages, five million in August, ten million in October, and fifteen million in November."
Yu Dong was surprised and said, "So many?"
"I have carefully calculated that it is indeed necessary to have so much, and there will be further investment. My idea is to let Xueleshan retain a studio to be responsible for maintaining previous games and developing new games. Although Xueleshan will focus on future work
It’s distribution, but you can’t lose the production aspect. Spend some money to maintain this aspect of the business, and it’s very possible to win big prizes.”
Hearing what Jimmy said, Yu Dong couldn't help but laugh, "It seems that the heroes have the same idea. I also want Roberta to set up a studio. In addition, the topic to be discussed in this discussion is also related to this matter.
They told me about a game idea yesterday, and I think the idea is quite good, but this game has encountered a problem that Roberta and the others can't solve, so they are not going to do it. But I have an idea that may be able to solve their problem."
Jimmy became interested, "What kind of game idea?"
Yu Dong explained to Jimmy, "This idea was originally thought up by Ken after he watched "The Martian"..."
After briefly describing the idea of ​​the game and the problems encountered in the game to Jimmy, Jimmy couldn't wait to ask, "Then what is the solution to the problem that you came up with?"
Although Jimmy is not a gamer, games are one of the company's main businesses after all. He certainly has a good eye for games, so after hearing Yu Dong talk about the idea of ​​​​this game, he knew the charm of this game.
.
The most popular game this year is undoubtedly "The Sims", which was released at the beginning of the year. This game has now sold out.
After a popular game comes out, everyone in the industry will study it carefully.
After research, people came up with a new term - sandbox game.
The game idea proposed by the Williams couple is in line with the sandbox games proposed by people now.
Moreover, if this game can eventually be developed according to the ideas of the Williamses, the degree of freedom of the game will definitely be higher than those of previous games.
The problems faced by this game are also real, and this problem is very difficult to solve, so Jimmy is eager to know what method Yu Dong can think of to solve this problem.
Yu Dong said with a smile, "It's actually very simple. To solve this problem, we need a little reverse thinking."
"Reverse Thinking?"
"Well, reverse thinking. Whether it is the Williams couple or you, when thinking about solving this problem, they should be thinking about how to improve computing power and solve module design problems. Things are constantly getting complicated. But we can do the opposite.
Come to think of it, why not make the module design simpler?"
"You keep talking."
"When building a house, what you think about is that you need bricks, concrete, wood, steel bars and other materials, or walls, roofs, doors, windows. But we can think simpler, a house
Only use one kind of thing to build. Just like if you want to compose a picture, you need pixels one by one."
When Yu Dong said the previous words, Jimmy was still confused. But when he heard Yu Dong say that pixels are needed to form a picture, he suddenly understood what Yu Dong meant.
"Genius, Dong, you are such a genius."
Jimmy clapped his hands excitedly and admired sincerely. The so-called genius idea is the kind that you can't think of until you say it, but you can react immediately once it is said, just like many magic tricks.
And Yu Dong's idea is definitely a genius idea.
This method not only solved the problems encountered by Williams and others, but also further improved the degree of freedom of the game, because the simpler and more original the module, the more diverse and free the gameplay is.
For example, in a house-building game, you pre-design doors for the player. No matter how many types of doors are designed, it is still a limitation.
