The Game Developer Who Left the Company Is Too Competent - The Game Developer Who Left the Company Is Too Competent chapter 119

76. investment(1)

After a week-long vacation, Taeyeon sat down in her office chair again.

“It’s Taesan that needs to be done.”

The two directors and the chairman distributed a lot of work, but it is still full of work.

It was because Taeyeon had a lot of things to solve on her own.

One of the biggest challenges facing us is the issue of investment.

There were a total of five small and medium-sized game companies that Nexple was investing in, and the cost used here was a whopping 50 billion won.

It was a content that had been carried out before Taeyeon became the CEO, and it was currently considered a big headache for Nexple.

“I’m going to have to deal with this soon.”

Vanilla Soft.

It is a company located in Yeoksam-dong, Gangnam, and is producing MMORPG using a unique engine.

4 years of development!

The amount invested is 300 billion won.

Unfortunately, the game hasn’t shown any signs of coming out yet.

before vacation.

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong called Taeyeon and said.

“If you check it yourself and think there is no way to fix it, then clean it up.”

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong’s face looked painful.

The reason was because the chairman of this place was the former CEO of Nexple and a close junior of Chairman Yoo Jin-seong.

I arrived at the office building of Vanilla Soft in Yeoksam-dong.

From nob le mt l dot com

My first impressions were:

‘It’s an expensive place. A large part of the investment will go to rent for this office building.’

It’s a new building, so the exterior is very clean and nice.

It is located on the main road, and there is a bus stop and a subway station right in front of it, so commuting to school is good.

‘Does this look better than our office building?

The inside is more spectacle.

The company logo color, vanilla, was actively used to decorate it very pretty and cute. Character sculptures are placed everywhere, and the cafeteria is modeled after the interior of the store in the game.

‘The chairs are all Herman Air products that cost more than 1 million won, and the top-of-the-line electric desk has a monitor, keyboard, and mouse… … .’

It seems that the cost of equipment paid to employees alone exceeds 10 million won per person.

Large and small flower pots are appropriately placed throughout the office, and these are also objects that are managed using people.

‘There are about a hundred people in development.’

charge.

30 billion is by no means a small amount of money… … .

‘Even CEO Kang Geon didn’t spend money this way.’

If it can’t be defeated even compared to the Nexle Gangnam office building, there is a problem.

A company that only spends without making money is similar to a place that has already made hundreds of billions this year alone… … .

When I opened the office and entered, a middle-aged man was sitting there.

“Oh, welcome. Representative Yu. Is this your first time seeing this? I am Kim Sang-young, the CEO of this company.”

The former CEO of Nexple and an acquaintance of Chairman Yoo Jin-seong.

It was a meeting with Kim Sang-young, the current CEO of Vanilla Soft.

Contrary to his dignified appearance, the middle-aged man in front of him was very talkative.

“When I was CEO of Nexle… … .”

And I really like stories from the past.

For tens of minutes already, he had been talking about his days as the CEO of Nexle, where he was the brightest.

‘There’s a lot of bravado.’

I don’t know if it’s because I live in a good house, but everything I wear, including suits and shoes, is a luxury item.

The office was also decorated in the form of a cozy study, and the color of all the furniture and props was unusual.

‘It could be a personal item, so let’s not have prejudice.’

Anyway, isn’t there a lot of money since you’re from Nepple’s CEO?

It’s my mind how I spend my money.

‘It would be a different story if the investment money was used.’

Today, I’m not just going to watch the game.

I was going to check in detail in what name the investment was spent.

20 minutes into the conversation, Taeyeon cut him off.

“I’m not here to talk about the past today, so I’ll talk about private things later.”

“uh? that, yes I said yes.”

It was representative Kim Sang-young who had stopped talking before I knew it.

Leave the office and go to someone.

“This friend is Jung Hu-sang, the producer of ‘Dragon Slayer’. Say hello to PD Jung. You’re the representative of my junior, Yoo Tae-yeon!”

When did you say you were a junior… … Taeyeon handed over her business card and greeted politely.

“I am Taeyeon Yoo, a game developer.”

“I-I didn’t expect to see CEO Yoo Tae-yeon like this… … I really admire you!”

For Taeyeon, the atmosphere in the studio was very burdensome. A lot of attention in the studio was focused on him. I don’t know if it’s just watching, but it was very agitated, as if I was watching a popular star.

“He is much taller than he looks on TV, has a great body and is handsome!”

“Awesome, it’s CEO Taeyeon Yoo! i really like it… … .”

“The person himself is really cool and has a force. He is not a national goddess man for nothing.”

It’s not that I just don’t like being noticed. I’m used to this

The problem is that the overall ability of the employees seen through the status window… … .

‘The standard is not met.’

He is so low-key that he would never have chosen a studio he led. It wasn’t that there weren’t any useful ones, but it wasn’t to the point of being noticed.

‘If it’s a game made by these people… … .’

You shouldn’t judge everything based on the status window. However, according to my experience so far, the ability displayed by the window is very intuitive and accurate.

Not knowing this, PD Jung Hu-sang speaks gibberish with an excited face.

“Ph, I’m preparing a presentation, so please wait! In fact, I already knew about the news of the visit and was preparing for it, so if you wait a bit, it will be over soon!”

It seems like a joke… … .

‘I’ll see if I’m confident.’

What about a game made by pouring 30 billion won in 4 years?

Taeyeon entered the conference room with a half-expectation and half-concern.

“If you type /dance into the chat window, the character will do a girl group dance! Just like this!”

An armored barbarian character performs a s*xy dance.

’30 billion… … .’

Taeyeon closed her eyes.

‘It’s a waste of money and time.’

The quality was lower than that of the university game club.

‘Sand, floor tiles, wood… … These are all items sold at the Unique Asset Store.’

The modeling and animation quality was quite good, but… … .

“Did you write an outsourced playable character?”

“yes? uh, how… … .”

Because the quality was good.

“How much did it cost?”

“that… … .”

“Tell me quickly.”

“About 2,800… … .”

A person who was so full of strength suddenly shrinks.

Taeyeon’s face darkened.

“Something like that… … ?”

Oops, I should have said it to myself… … .

With that one word, the lively atmosphere of the presentation rapidly turned cold.

but it’s already past. Taeyeon glared at the game screen with fierce eyes.

The outsourcing fee received by the top modeler in the industry is about 30 million won.

‘It’s not even the quality to spend 15 million, let alone 28 million won… … .’

I have a feeling.

A chill began to run through Taeyeon’s body.

“Bring the details of outsourcing.”

“… … !”

“Right Now!”

While CEO Kim Sang-young, who had not been able to grasp the situation properly, was confused, PD Lee Hu-sang’s face turned white.

before becoming CEO.

It was Taeyeon who had a history of sweeping away all kinds of misconduct that was prevalent in Nexple.

In Taeyeon’s eyes, a suspicious act was caught and a statement of the use of funds was put in her hand.

I murmured while comparing the specifications and the quality of game implementation one by one.

“I should have eaten in moderation, what is this… … .”

this is a bit harsh

PD Lee Hu-sang buried his head and shivered.

Representative Kim Sang-young asks cautiously.

“Is there any misconduct?”

Taeyeon looked at him without answering.

Did I really not know?

or not… … ..

“I’m sorry!”

After that, Sang PD lay flat on the floor.

to voluntarily pay taxes.

‘You know everything. The more I get out of here, the more I have to lose!’

Taeyeon’s pseudonym is well known.

One of the most famous of these is PD Yu of Annihilation!

All developers know that the numerous misconduct that was prevalent in Nexle was caught at once and taken action without mercy.

It would be foolish to try to deceive him.

“In fact, all of this was led by CEO Kim Sang-young’s instructions! I can’t even get a dime… … no it wasn’t! Really!”

“What man? hey! Are you crazy?!”

Embarrassed, CEO Kim Sang-young kicks out of his seat and stands up.

“What kind of nonsense is the crazy bastard talking all of a sudden? When did I order that? Do you have any grudge against me?!”

While bursting out with harsh swear words, he noticed Taeyeon’s gaze and hurriedly made an excuse.

“Oh must! I never ordered anything like that! What am I sorry about… … .”

“I was going to tell you that I couldn’t do it anymore! I have all the transcripts and evidence!”

“What, what… … ?!”

Pointing swords at each other… … That’s a lot of fuss.

Employees gathered outside the conference room and were buzzing.

“It’s a lot of sh*t.”

* * *

Vanilla Soft CEO Kim Sang-young was accused of embezzlement of investment funds. Vanilla Soft, which had been used without earning since its establishment, had no room for salvation. It was a natural procedure to go through the dissolution process.

The problem was the Vanilla Soft employees.

The employees who did what they were told were not guilty of anything.

‘Everyone’s capacity is below the standard… … I don’t know where to put it.’

Currently, Vanilla Soft employees are trembling with anxiety, but on the other hand, they are looking forward to being transferred to Neflo. Taeyeon’s actions so far have created such anticipation.

In addition, if it is the current Nepple, it is the best company in the game industry and the treatment is very good, so isn’t it rather better?

‘I made an equity investment, but it’s actually a different company… … There is no reason for me to take responsibility.’

It is rather unfair to others to give benefits blindly.

Currently, Nexple is envying many people in Korea as a dream company.

What would happen if even those with much better careers and specs were preparing thoroughly, and people who fell short of the standard were brought in?

There is no obligation to do so.

Taeyeon finally made a decision.

“Only those who apply for a job, let’s give them at least an opportunity to take an interview and test.”

Normally, most of them would be eliminated in the document interview, but this is a really big benefit.

As the news spread, Vanilla Soft employees poured out their complaints.

“Who got rid of our jobs?!”

“CEO Taeyeon Yoo! Damn, I didn’t see people like that… … .”

“done. I do not need. I’m not going to hurt my pride! Did you think there would be no company I could go to other than Nexle?”

However, the internal atmosphere was different, and everyone applied for a job at Neckple.

As Taeyeon declared, she passed the first document interview!

The problem with the interview… … Among them, it was a test in particular.

At Neckple, there is an entrance exam made by Taeyeon herself and inspected by producers.

The test was very well made, so I was able to quickly check the level of competence this person had by looking at the solution process and results.

This is because it is a collection of numerous issues in each part of the past and reconstructed into examples suitable for the test.

“Okay.”

“This is too difficult… … .”

The Vanilla Soft employees who were taking the entrance exam grunted and grabbed their heads.

In the meantime, Taeyeon was mercilessly destroying another investment company.
