In the south of Shudu City, in an office in Area B of Tianfu Software Park in the High-tech Zone.

Wang Bo, who was in the dust, looked at the three young men and women in front of him, and the expression in his eyes was a little complicated, but in the end he gritted his teeth and said: "Lu You, Liu Jie, Sui Xing, have you really thought about it? I have already talked to Zeng Lun just now, and he has accepted my invitation and decided to join the Tianmei Studio Group, which is about to be established by Penguin Games." ”

These are the persons in charge of the program, planning and art modules of Wolong Studio, among them, Lu You, who is in charge of the program module, is the oldest, already thirty-four or five years old, and Liu Jie and Sui Xing are both young people around twenty-seven or eighteen years old.

These three people, together with Zeng Lun mentioned by Wang Bo just now, constitute the high-level power structure of Wolong Studio.

Zeng Lun is responsible for overall progress, outreach, and version control.

Lv You and others are responsible for the day-to-day management of their respective modules and the work review of their subordinate members.

It was Lu You who spoke first, and he said helplessly, "Mr. Wang, I have already married and bought a house in Shudu, and now my wife is eight months old, it is impossible for the Tianmei studio group you said to let a programmer carry out daily work in Shudu, thousands of miles away, right?"

"Besides, I don't want to start from scratch in a strange place, so I can only say I'm sorry. ”

Wang Bo nodded helplessly, he also had some understanding of Lu You's situation from Zeng Lun, and compared his heart to heart, even if he himself faced such a problem, he would make the same choice as Lu You.

Buying a house, getting married, and dragging a family with you is basically a sign that a person intends to put down roots somewhere.

If it weren't for the changes that would upend his current circumstances, it would be difficult for anyone to make the decision to change......

"Sui Xing, Liu Jie, have you made a decision?" Giving up his plan to continue persuading Lu You, Wang Bo set his eyes on the two young people who were sitting on the side and had not spoken.

The reason why Wang Bo called these three people into the office separately for communication, on the one hand, is naturally because they are among the best in the industry at the work level.

On the other hand, Wang Bo also learned from Zeng Lun that the three major modules of Wolong Studio's programming, planning, and art were all set up by these people.

Among the key people in the team, they all have a lot of influence.

If you get these three people, you can basically get seventy or eighty percent of the people in their team.

These members, who have cooperated for more than a year, have a tacit understanding with each other, which is also a great asset.

As the person in charge of the original contact with Wolong Studio, although Wang Bo could not change Ma Xiaoyi's decision, he still won a first-line opportunity for these people.

Even if Wolong Studio will inevitably be spun up, small team members should still be able to be retained if they are brought together.

After listening to Wang Bo's words, Liu Jie behaved calmly, "Mr. Wang, most of the game planners under my command are from Shu or coastal cities to choose to settle down, if you say that the Tianmei Studio Group needs us to go to Pengcheng, then I can only choose to refuse." ”

"If you want to stay in Pengcheng, many of my people don't have to come back to Shudu at all. ”

"This question...... I can't solve it," Wang Bo spread his hands, with a helpless expression, "Ending the cooperation with Wolong Studio, this is the decision of Mr. Ma, the vice president in charge of Penguin Games, and the only thing I can fight for you is to join the Tianmei Studio Group that Penguin Games is about to integrate and establish by splitting the team." ”

"Mr. Ma attaches great importance to this newly established department, so it must be placed under his direct supervision. In other words, if you accept my suggestion, then your future place of work will inevitably be Pengcheng. ”

"In that case, I'd better forget it. Liu Jie shook his head and replied negatively, "Shudu is building a Western Information City with the High-tech Zone Software Park as the core, and my brothers and I still have a certain competitiveness." I have to be responsible for them. ”

"The second one," Seeing that Liu Jie was so resolute, Wang Bo stopped persuading and instead asked Sui Xing, the only female member of the three. "Sui Xing, what do you think?"

"I don't want to continue working for Penguin Games. ”

Surprisingly, Sui Xing, who seemed to be the weakest of the three, spoke the most resolutely.

"Penguin Games pays too much attention to revenue feedback, our work is obviously an effective supplement to the existing art style of Penguin Games, everyone knows, 3D modeling time is much longer than 2D cute style, just because we pick out the quality, talk about details, so I feel that we can not bring benefits to the company, Mr. Wang, this concept I really can't accept. ”

After listening to Sui Xing's answer, Wang Bo sighed heavily.

Today's solicitation plan is a complete failure.

After losing these three people and their team, Wolong Studio is simply an empty shell.

As a former front-line R&D person, Wang Bo can fully understand this idea of excellence and perfection, but as the current manager of Penguin Games, he can also understand Ma Xiaoyi's motivation when he made this decision.

…… Departments and teams that can't generate profits are worthless for a commercial company.

Since Wolong Studios accepted the capital injection of Penguin Games for a year, it has consumed nearly 10 million yuan of investment after accounting. And the game they are now working on called "Heroes' Traces" has not yet seen any signs of completion......

If it were normal times, this situation in Wolong Studio might not be an eyesore, after all, as Sui Xing said just now, the time spent on 3D modeling and 2D painting is not the same......

But at this time, Lilith Tech's "Dota Legend" was born......

It's no wonder that Ma Xiaoyi focused all his attention on this aspect.

In this context, the 'inaction' of Wolong Studio is particularly prominent.

Coupled with the fact that its office is located in Shudu, which is thousands of miles away from Pengcheng, it is difficult to take into account the poor performance, Wang Bo can fully imagine that if Ma Xiaoyi does not take the initiative to make changes, what awaits him will be anger from the top of Penguin Company.

So in this context, the survival of a Wolong studio naturally becomes less important.

Everyone has their own ambitions, and Wang Bo no longer continued to persuade him, and finally he just left a sentence: "Everyone, although Penguin Games has decided to terminate the cooperation with Wolong Studio from next month, if you can find someone who is willing to take over and continue to invest within this month, then you should still be able to work together." It's just that this problem can only be figured out by you, good luck to everyone. ”

After Wang Bo left, the three people who stayed in the office were thinking about their own affairs and didn't speak for a while.

After a long time, Sui Xing, who was still the hottest temper, opened his mouth first, "The one with fake eyebrows and fake eyes, first cut off our food, and now he is coming to fake mercy ......"

"Actually, I can't blame him," Liu Jie was relatively more sensible, and he tried to explain to Wang Bo, "This matter is indeed not a decision that his level can make, he is just a messenger at best." Can't blame him. ”

"Let's think about how to find the right investors. ”

"It's not that easy," Sui Xing took over the topic and said, "Penguin Games has invested so much money, and it will inevitably take our R&D results during this period as part of its assets, unless the new company can get all the results from them, it will be difficult for us as a team to get capital injection." ”

"With the virtue of Penguin Games, our R&D results will inevitably sell more than their total investment," Lu You frowned, with a distressed face, "At least the price of more than 10 million ......"

Liu Jie and Sui Xing also sighed deeply after hearing this number, both of them knew very well that this price was not a small number.

"By the way, do you know Lilith Technology?" After being silent for a long time, Lu You said suddenly.

"You know, they developed and published the most popular card game "Dota Legend" recently, and I am still a V15 player of this game. ”

As a game planner, Liu Jie plays more games as his compulsory course. So after hearing Lu You's words, he reacted the fastest.

"Zhang Hao, the project manager of the project, and I used to be colleagues, and I heard that their company was almost finished half a year ago because of investment problems, and then someone bought their company as a wholly owned company and has been supporting them, which is why today's "Dota Legend" is here. Maybe we can go down this path too. ”

"Brother Lu, if you want to get all the previous R&D materials from Penguin Games, as you said, it's tens of millions of funds, it's not that easy, right?"

Although Sui Xing has a hot temper, he is not empty-headed after all.

"Anyway, I'll ask Zhang Hao first, and if it doesn't work, let's try it first. ”

"Then, I'll leave everything to Brother Lu. ”
