Chapter 108 Voting

The game project developed by Zhao Cangting's team is called "Hot Blood Ninja Online". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Most of the background settings can obviously be seen to be "borrowed" from the Japanese cartoon "Naruto".

It took Liu Kewei less than three hours to run through almost all of the game's completed system functions and story missions on the test server. Then with more than a dozen opinions recorded on a piece of paper during the game, he sat down in front of Zhao Cangting again.

Che Guanglong naturally sat next to him and translated for him.

"Mr. Zhao, in general, this is a fairly passable game, as long as you find a stronger agent and do a good job of publicity and promotion, it should be able to earn back the cost. But with all due respect, I don't think this is a particularly valuable option for this game to be played by a Korean game company that recruited a group of Chinese gamers and used Japanese ninja culture as the background of the game. Although this cartoon is indeed very popular, such a background setting is actually not pleasing in the Celestial Empire",

"Secondly, the game's redemption is a bit of a problem. Based on my experience over the past few hours, it seems that there are only two currencies in the game: gold and copper coins?"

After listening to Che Guanglong's instant translation, Zhao Cangting nodded in approval.

After thinking about the wording for a few seconds, Liu Kewei continued: "The way to produce gold is to recharge consumption and game rewards, while the output of copper coins is game rewards and exchange for gold...... Generally speaking, this idea is correct in the type of online game with a fee system for props, but it is not perfect. Because the way of gold production includes game rewards, and the game includes peer-to-peer player transactions, this will lead to the possibility of players completing tasks by registering a new account and then transferring them to the original account, which is the so-called money farming for mainland players. If this behavior is not curbed in an effective way, it can quickly be devastating to the server. ”

Zhao Cangting nodded secretly and asked tentatively: "So do you have any solutions to the problems that exist in this game currency system?"

Liu Kewei turned the piece of paper over and drew three circles with his signature. Nodding his head, he said, "The most fundamental solution is to distinguish the gold produced through the consumption purchase channel from the gold produced by the game rewards, for example, to change the name of the latter to Silver Liang." And the function of the silver two is positioned as 'can complete part of the function of gold, but it cannot be used for trading between players, and it is bound to the account for life. This will block the possibility of players getting a lot of gold by repeatedly creating new numbers + trading. ”

Zhao Cangting's face froze, and he instinctively felt that although the plan proposed by Liu Kewei was simple, it might be the best way to solve the problem.

So he confessed, left his office, went to a secluded corner, took out his mobile phone and made a call.

"Uncle Quan, the last time you came to me to evaluate the game, you raised a question about the shopping mall system, and today a producer who came to look for investment also pointed it out, and also gave another solution. ”

"Oh, tell me about it. The voice of a middle-aged man on the other end of the phone sounded very steady.

Zhao Cangting repeated Liu Kewei's plan, and then asked cautiously: "Uncle Quan, what do you think of this guy's ability?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for about ten seconds, and then there was an exclamation: "Very clever, it is simpler and more thorough than the solution we suggested to you to cancel the peer-to-peer transactions of players and replace them with auctions."

So Zhao Cangting Ying made an appointment and realized that he was very likely to pick up the treasure today!

After returning to the office, Zhao Cangting pretended to be as relaxed as before when he listened to Liu Kewei continue to talk about his more than a dozen game omf feedback, but his eyes were always on the USB flash drive on the desk floating in the air, turning back and forth.

After sending Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong away, Zhao Cangting immediately sent the information in the USB flash drive to the "Uncle Quan" through the Internet.

Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong stayed in Yanling City for three days, ran all over the Korean-funded online game company in the software park of the new district, and were about to pack their bags and go to the next stop, when Zhao Cangting invited them back with a phone call.

After Zhao Cangting expressed his intention to cooperate, Liu Kewei learned the lessons of the last contract dispute and bluntly revealed several problems that currently exist in this game, one is that all art resources need to be rebuilt, the second is that there is a loophole in the collision detection system of the game engine, which will take two or three weeks to solve, and the third is the entanglement between Mingzhou and Xia Fei, two Celestial Empire game companies, and this project.

Explain these three 1510 clearly, and then put forward the cooperation conditions of the three-person studio, which is consistent with the previous position when negotiating with investors such as Xiafei, that is, the investment quota of 300,000 yuan in exchange for 49% of the studio's equity, as well as the right of priority agency of the project.

Zhao Cangting shook his head with a smile, saying that he did not agree with such a cooperation plan, and just when Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong were disappointed, Zhao Cangting spoke: "The purpose of my investment in the Heavenly Empire is not to make money. ”

Why don't you go all the way from South Korea to Yanling to invest in it in order to make money? Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong looked at Zhao Cangting in confusion, waiting for him to explain.

"I came to Celestial Empire to find a game development team for games, and I want to bring this team back to Seoul to make an impactful and excellent project to prove my vision and ability. "My team in Seoul evaluated your project and they thought it had the potential to become a blockbuster, and Mr. Liu's analysis of your opinion on Hot Ninja and some of your suggestions also proved your professionalism in the field of game development, so I think you are the collaborator I was looking for." ”

Are you going to Seoul? After listening to Che Guanglong's translation, Liu Kewei almost impulsively agreed. Fortunately, seeing his red face, Che Guanglong couldn't help but lightly bump him with his elbow, and he realized that he was now speaking on behalf of a team.

As far as I know, South Korea's consumption level and salary are higher than those in China, and if nothing else, at least the research and development costs of the project will increase a lot. Che Guanglong euphemistically objected.

"Don't worry about funding, I will provide you with office space, machinery and dormitories, and I will invest another 200 million won in your studio, on the condition that you still have 49% of the equity of your studio and the right of first refusal of the project. Zhao Cangting explained with a smile, "Also, I am also responsible for all the formalities of your passport and work visa, you can think about it, I am very sincere." ”

Although they had known for a long time that the exchange rate of the Korean won was not high, hearing the figure of 200 million won still shocked Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong, and the two hurriedly opened the calculator software attached to the notebook to convert.

"It's about 1.08 million yuan. Seeing that the two of them were in a hurry, Zhao Cangting coughed and directly gave the answer they wanted.

The figure of changing to the familiar renminbi unit is not scary at all, but it is only one million and eighty thousand yuan! Liu Kewei stupidly turned off the calculator on his notebook.

However, even if it is 1.08 million yuan, it is far more than the estimated total investment of 600,000 yuan. The so-called salary in South Korea is higher than that of the Celestial Empire, which usually refers to the general industry in ordinary areas, and if the salary standard of the game development industry in big cities such as Modu and Hangzhou is used as a reference, in fact, the salary in South Korea is not so high.

At the very least, it's okay to keep the money going until the alpha version of the project is completed.

"However, our team's procedures and artists are insufficient, and we still need to recruit people, so how to solve the language problem of recruiting people in South Korea?" Liu Kewei asked another question.

"There are a lot of Xian programmers from the Celestial Empire who work in South Korea, so there should be no need to worry about programming. Zhao Cangting pondered for a moment, and then gave a solution, "As for art, it may be a little difficult, but it's a big deal to have one or two translators." ”

Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong raised one doubt after another, which were solved by Zhao Cangting one by one.

After exchanging glances, Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong both understood each other's thoughts, and it seemed that this matter was still operable, as for whether they agreed or not, they had to understand the thoughts of the other members of the studio.

"Mr. Zhao, the two of us can't make decisions on this matter, please give us a little time to ask for other people's opinions. In the end, Liu Kewei still expressed a noncommittal position.

Zhao Cangting nodded slowly: "It's okay, it should be." I've been waiting for more than half a year and I'm not in a hurry for these few days, and I hope you can bring me good news after you discuss it. ”

After saying goodbye to Zhao Cangting, Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong hurried back to the hotel where they were staying, and immediately used their laptops to surf the Internet to have a video conference with others who stayed in the magic capital and waited for news.

On the way back, Liu Kewei gathered everyone on the phone, and as soon as the video screen was turned on, he saw Duan Shanshan, Ling Xingning, Saiwen and Ruoying huddled in Duan Shanshan's apartment.

After Liu Kewei finished talking about Zhao Cangting's conditions, the various doubts raised by himself and Che Guanglong, and Zhao Cangting's response, the six people on and off the screen fell into a short silence.

"I agree. Unexpectedly, the first person to express her stance turned out to be Xia Ruoying.

"You didn't even hesitate to leave Hangzhou for so long, why did you decide to agree so quickly when you wanted to go abroad this time?" Che Guanglong glared at his girlfriend with a toothache, squeezing out the question.

"Of course it's because of Kim Jong Kook! If you go to Seoul, you will have a chance to see it alive!" Wakazakura smiled solemnly, not caring at all about the way her boyfriend blew his beard and stared at the screen.

"I personally agree. Liu Kewei also couldn't wait to say, but fortunately, he still knew how to add a sentence, "But I still respect everyone's meaning more." ”

His reasons were not a secret at least to Che Guanglong and Duan Shanshan.

"Even if we really want to go, we are going to work, not for you to chase stars!" Che Guanglong said with a smile.

"What do you mean, don't you agree?" asked Liu Kewei rhetorically.

"It really doesn't matter to me, Chinese is my first mother tongue, Korean is my second mother tongue, I don't have a language barrier, Seoul is closer to my home maybe Hangcheng or Modu." Che Guanglong replied stupidly.

Next, Saiwen and Ling Xingning also successively expressed their casual but non-objectionable positions.

"Uncle Duan, you're the only one left, what do you say?" Liu Kewei stared at Duan Shanshan and asked, his expression a little nervous, as if he was afraid that he would say the word "against".

Looking at Liu Kewei's expectant gaze, I thought that as early as half a year ago, I was inexplicably dragged to the magic capital by this guy to watch a concert of a Korean girl group that I hadn't paid attention to at all, and then resigned at home and watched a lot of Korean variety shows at the instigation of this guy......

Could it be that all this is not a coincidence, but a providence in the dark?

Duan Shanshan pursed his lips and slowly said two words:

"Agreed. ”
