113 The sun shines at the beginning of August
The sky was a deep blue, the wind under the scorching sun was hot, and the rain at the end of July suddenly turned into a torrential rain, sweeping away the accumulated moisture and quickly disappearing.
The sunny day that lasted for several days made Pei Qian feel that he was standing in another world.
Moby Dick Games moved to a new office, and hiring is in full swing.
After Moby Dick moved to a new home, the development of Zhao Yiming's new game was also on the agenda.
The reality is really incredible, and Zhao Yiming didn't expect that he would be able to independently plan and develop a game.
In Pei Qian's office, Zhao Yiming was pacing while excitedly drawing cakes for Pei Qian, talking about the uniqueness of this game.
"First of all, we are a 3D Japanese-style turn-based RPG mobile game, which will have a combat system, a mission system, a trading system, a team system, a ranking system, a collection system and a master-apprentice system. ”
"At the heart of the game is card collection and PVE battles. ”
"We want to use beautiful Japanese style graphics with ink rendering to create a unique and exquisite picture, so that players can enjoy an extraordinary visual feast. ”
"The character design is delicate and exquisite, and the game scenes are elegant, ethereal and serene, blurring the boundaries between the nether and the real with this style of painting. ”
"The plot of the game will have a short story and small chapters to find and advance, which are interlocking. ”
"The background music and character soundtracks of the game will be produced and dubbed by RB's top vocal team and first-line voice actors. ”
"In this way, our characters, plot, and voice acting are very suitable for two-dimensional players, and we can also attract female players, and our playability in the game is far beyond other two-dimensional games on the market today. ”
"Mr. Pei, this is a dimensionality reduction strike!"
After Zhao Yiming finished speaking in one breath, he no longer had the strength to dance.
Pei Qian got up and poured him a glass of water. "Lao Zhao, your performance just now is hard enough to moisten your throat. ”
"Thank you. Zhao Yiming took it with both hands and drank it in one gulp.
Pei Qian sat down again, opened the plan revised by Zhao Yiming, and exhaled. "Lao Zhao, this version is more demanding than before!"
Zhao Yiming smiled. "The main reason is that the earning power of "Miracle Snow Snow" was beyond my expectations, so I raised the bar a little bit. ”
"So now the budget for this game is 300 million yuan. Pei Qian rubbed his brows, looked up at Zhao Yiming and asked, "Old Zhao, to be honest, how confident do you have?"
Invest 300 million to develop and publish a game, even if Pei Qian's current money seems to be blowing in the wind, he is very hesitant in his heart.
The main thing is that this game is planned by Zhao Yiming, not his golden finger.
If it fails, although the Moby Dick game will not go out of business, it will also break its muscles and bones, and it will take a long time to recover.
After hearing Pei Qian's question, Zhao Yiming took a deep breath, looked directly into Pei Qian's eyes, and replied calmly: "Mr. Pei, I don't dare to say 100%, but I am at least seventy percent sure." ”
After seeing Pei Qian rubbing his brows again, he paused and continued: "In fact, there are many projects in the game industry, and the success is very good, even if a large company like Penguin and Wangyi is generally only 50% sure. ”
Pei Qian knew that what Zhao Yiming said was the truth, how could anyone in this world be 100% sure that he would succeed?
Unless it's the main character.
Pei Qian pressed his temples with both hands, rubbed them gently, and recalled the conversation with Pei Qingxue on the sofa that day.
"Brother, this game is definitely a lot of fun. ”
Zhao Yiming saw that Pei Qian had been silent and was a little disappointed in his heart.
This game is his renewed passion, after seeing that Pei Qian, a newcomer to the game industry, can develop such an excellent product as "Miracle Snow Snow", the flame that has been extinguished for a long time in Zhao Yiming's heart rekindled.
"Pei Qian can be, my Lao Zhao will never live to a dog for more than ten years!"
To be honest, Zhao Yiming also understood Pei Qian's hesitation, mainly because he had increased his own death.
Although Zhao Yiming knew that this was death, he still couldn't help it.
"Who stipulates that people who have been smoothed out by reality can't regrow their edges and corners? There is such a thing as a cutter in this world!"
But now, Zhao Yiming still decided to become sleek again, sighed in his heart, and asked tentatively: "Mr. Pei, why don't you follow the original plan?"
Pei Qian opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Yiming, the loss on his face was undisguised.
To be honest, he felt that seventy percent of what Zhao Yiming said was watery, but now he didn't want to care about this, and said slowly: "Old Zhao, since we are determined to do it, we will do the best." ”
Pei Qianqing clearly remembers the mood of the first time he developed those two games, and now he has the mentality of fighting again.
"What are you missing, what do you want to use, you can tell me and Du Li, and now "Miracle Snow Snow" doesn't need you to be in charge, you can seriously and wholeheartedly develop this dream work. ”
Zhao Yiming looked at Pei Qian, and he once again felt that it was really cool to be able to work for such a boss.
Generous, willing to delegate power, and the courage to gamble.
It's not accurate to say that developing a game is gambling, you can control it, you can predict it, and you can cheat, but in front of the players, you can't get out of the way.
Pei Qian couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhao Yiming's sparkling eyes. "Lao Zhao, don't cry, it's strange. ”
Zhao Yiming took out a tissue and wiped the corners of his eyes, and laughed. "Mr. Pei, I know what the grace of knowing is, this game has been in my mind for three years, and I mentioned it to my superiors once on the Internet, and he gave it back to me after a glance. ”
Zhao Yiming recalled the original scene, and said in the tone of his boss: "Lao Zhao, work hard, this kind of thing is not something we should think about." It's really so easy to succeed, why don't penguins do it? There are too many smart people in this world, and if they really have good ideas, they will be preempted by others. ”
Pei Qian looked at Zhao Yiming's weird appearance of yin and yang, and thought to himself how much he was stimulated at the beginning!
waved his hand. "Okay, don't complain, people can't see it. ”
Zhao Yiming hurriedly smiled and said, "I can't help it, I can't help it." ”
"Say, what else do you think?" Pei Qian said helplessly after seeing Zhao Yiming looking at him expectantly.
Zhao Yiming swallowed his saliva, cautiously thought about the wording, looked at Pei Qianjing and calmly proposed: "Mr. Pei, I want to set up a special studio to develop this game." ”
"Yes. "There is nothing to refuse this Pei Qian, the Moby Dick game is currently a big pot of rice, but sooner or later it will have to learn from the penguins, divide internally, and compete with each other.
"And then I hope I can pick some of the staff, to be honest, the employees of Moby Dick Games are mixed, and I want to have gold under my hands. Zhao Yiming continued.
"This can be there. Pei Qian nodded, he could understand Zhao Yiming's idea.
"In fact, the company should have an elimination system, and you are still soft-hearted in this regard, Mr. Pei. Zhao Yiming said it in a joking tone with a smile on his face.
"Ci is not in charge of the soldiers, Mr. Pei. Zhao Yiming sighed.
This was not originally his business, but Pei Qian and Du Li never mentioned this aspect. In line with the conscience in his heart and the value of his shares in the future, Zhao Yiming still decided to speak out.
Pei Qian stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the blue sky outside the window.
I thought that since the success of "Miracle Snow Snow", some employees have begun to fish in troubled waters, spending more time sitting on the sofa than looking at the computer.
Yesterday, Du Li watched it, and they reminded her that it was work time, and the other party joked about her. "Sister Lili, let's just take a break. ”
Thinking of Du Li's complaints, Pei Qian said seriously: "This is very important, let's implement it after this round of recruitment! We don't engage in the final elimination system, just draw a passing line, which will be handled by the human resources department at that time, Du Li is not good at it, she is softer than me." ”
After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhao Yiming again. "Lao Zhao, thank you. ”
"It should be. Zhao Yiming shook his head, and then as if he suddenly remembered something, he hurriedly said.
"By the way, Mr. Pei, please lend me the tea and tea like fire, and let them be in charge of the original painting. ”
Pei Qian looked at Zhao Yiming and laughed. "Lao Zhao! This is your first point, right?"
Zhao Yiming just smiled and didn't answer.
Pei Qian saw that it didn't matter if he didn't admit it, anyway, he wasn't going to interfere with this, so he said to Zhao Yiming: "You go and Ye Chacha and say directly, she is also an employee of Beluga Company." If you're embarrassed, ask Du Li to help, Du Li knows that the company doesn't have any new game plans except for you. ”
Then, the company set up a new art department, and Ye Chacha is currently working as a part-time interviewer, and you can communicate with her. ”
The skeleton of Moby Dick is now set up as a whole, and as long as there is money, everything seems to be so smooth and fast.
The first amount of money for the alphabet jump has already hit the account of Moby Dick Games, so Moby Dick Games is not bad money at the moment.
Pei Qian discussed with Du Li to raise the salary to such a first-class level as Penguin and Wang, and at the same time, in this way, better employees could be recruited.
If you give a lot of money, others are willing to come, and only a few people are willing to send a little bit with love, and it can't last.
Because, after all, this is an unhealthy model, and it is only right for those who can take more.
Thinking of this, Pei Qian asked Zhao Yiming again: "We are actually still short of old ginger like you now, you go and contact your previous acquaintances in the network to see if there is anyone willing to change jobs." ”
Zhao Yiming was dumbfounded, why did the painting style change abruptly?
Isn't the theme my game?
Pei Qian couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhao Yiming being a little stunned. "You're not afraid of Han Fei, are you?"
Zhao Yiming hurriedly shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Pei, I'm not Li Si, and I also know a few colleagues who are unambitious. ”
I hesitated just now, mainly because I was afraid that they would not accept me as their boss, and I would not agree to save face, and secondly, I was afraid that there would be a net to help the company at that time. ”
Pei Qian gave him a blank look. "Don't worry, because when the time comes, maybe there will be a Penguin Gang to fight with you, maybe there will be an Alphabet Gang, and the Three Kingdoms will fight. ”
When Zhao Yiming saw Pei Qian say this, he had no worries in his heart, so he nodded. "I took the time to contact them. ”
At the same time, I was a little admired. "Some people are natural leaders and can't learn it. ”
"Okay, the treatment of joining us will definitely be better than before, you give them a focus on promoting our future and draw a big pie. Pei Qian said with a smile.
Zhao Yiming also laughed. "Not necessarily, I guess they should be very worried about being fired by now, and maybe they are already secretly looking for a home. ”
Just like he did at the beginning.
