Chapter 86: Video Conferencing

The name Ascending Mountain may sound like a lot of atmosphere, but in fact it is just a hillock with a height of only a few tens of meters above the ground, and such a hill can be found everywhere in the hilly areas of northern Fujian. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info is unique only because it is located near the center of Tan city. Compared with Duan Shanshan and Cai Pingping's previous visit to Anshan, which is more than 1,000 meters above sea level, it is not remarkable at all.

Because of its proximity to the city, it was built into a free and open park, and was named Tanshan Park after Tancheng.

There is a four-story pavilion-shaped building on the top of the mountain, and under the eaves at the entrance, there is a plaque with gold paint on a black background, on which are written the three big characters of "Song Ci Pavilion".

Cai Pingping stood under the plaque and tried to look up, and at the same time couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who is Song Ci?"

This girl has been in Tancheng for almost a week, but not only did she not express any desire to leave, but her attitude changed from a little impatience and defensiveness at the beginning, and gradually became a little happy. This made Duan Shanshan feel a lot of headaches, could it be because I was self-aware that I was not interested in her, and I kept my distance deliberately, but it made her have a sense of trust in me because of this? Girl, do you really care about the danger that a straight man who is not familiar with his personality and is in the prime of life may pose to you?

Besides, even if the customs and customs of Tancheng make you linger for a while, but Anshan also went, Kaoting Academy also went, Jianzhan Street also went, and now even this inconspicuous Tanshan Park has also come, a small Tancheng is nothing worth letting you go to play again! Is it possible that we still have to go to the towns under the jurisdiction of Tancheng?

"Song Ci was the first forensic doctor in history, a native of the Song Dynasty. Duan Shanshan replied with a strain of temperament, "He once wrote the prison break notes "Collection of Grievances", and was recommended by Chinese and foreign forensic doctors as the originator of the industry. There is a local contemporary writer named Wang Hongjia, who wrote a historical novel with Song Ci as the protagonist called "Divine Experience", which was published by Lujiang Publishing House in 86. Later, the Fujian Provincial Television Station adapted and filmed this novel into a serial drama "Yin and Yang Jian"; later, in 99, Hong Kong TVB also filmed a serial drama "Clearing Grievances", which also featured Song Ci; and finally in 05 and 06, the mainland filmed a total of nearly 100 episodes of "Da Song Ti Criminal Officer" and "Da Song Ti Criminal Officer 2", and the protagonist was still Song Ci. ”

"I know about "The Criminal Officer of the Great Song Dynasty", but I haven't watched a few episodes, it turns out that Song Ci is played there?" Cai Pingping nodded as if she had just woken up from a dream, "Speaking of which, this guy is quite powerful, and he has filmed three or four versions of the series before and after?" No wonder you have Song Ci Road, Song Ci Avenue and Song Citing in Tancheng, but who is more famous than him and Zhu Xi?"

Although Duan Shanshan felt that the other party was a little bit of a pole to raise, he still couldn't say something against his heart, so he honestly admitted in a low voice: "Of course, Zhu Xi is more famous, Confucianism is orthodox after all, and its influence is much higher than that of forensics." ”

"Then why don't there be Zhu Xi Road, Zhu Xi Avenue and Zhu Xi Pavilion in Tancheng?" Cai Pingping asked with a wink.

"Zhu Xi is a native of Shenxi County, western Fujian, and Song Ci is an authentic native of Tancheng, how can this treatment be the same?" Duan Shanshan explained.

Cai Pingping pursed her lips disdainfully and expressed her disdain: "Cut, it turns out that you are engaged in local protectionism!"

Duan Shanshan opened his mouth to say something, but he couldn't find the right words to refute Cai Pingping's nonsense for a while, just at this time his mobile phone rang, so he picked up the phone as if he had been amnestied.

"Hey, it's me, what's the matter with Lao Liu? Not now, I'm outside, I can't access the Internet, and I can't get on QQ on my mobile phone...... Hey, I don't know if my Nokia classic phone has such high-end features, and even if it did, I wouldn't use it. Okay, I'll go home and surf the Internet right away, and you can wait for me a little bit, about a quarter of an hour or twenty minutes. ”

After hanging up the phone, Duan Shanshan turned to Cai Pingping and said, "My colleague has something to do with me, it seems to be in a hurry, I have to go home immediately, let's do this today, right?"

Cai Pingping looked at Duan Shanshan suspiciously, and saw that he had a rare serious expression, so she nodded obediently and walked down the steps of the mountain behind Duan Shanshan.

Fifteen minutes later, Duan Shanshan opened the door of the house out of breath and went straight into his bedroom to turn on the computer, Cai Pingping climbed up to the eighth floor in one breath without blushing and heartbeat, moved a stool and sat behind him, looking at him with blinking eyes.

Duan Shanshan didn't care about her, and after landing on QQ quickly, he immediately received a string of messages from Liu Kewei.

"Absent?"

"Speak!"

"Haven't come back yet?"

……

It could be seen that the other party was very anxious, so he didn't dare to slack off, and sent a video application as soon as possible. The other side immediately accepted it, and after a while, two parallel heads of Liu Kewei and Che Guanglong appeared on the screen, and the background should be in Liu Kewei's house.

"Yo, Uncle Duan, there's a beautiful woman sitting next to you, don't you want to introduce us to it?" Liu Kewei, who was still anxious on the phone and QQ message just now, immediately changed to a standard conversation tone with a hippie smile as soon as he saw Cai Pingping behind Duan Shanshan.

"Ahem, this is ......"

Duan Shanshan coughed, and was worried about how to introduce the two of them, saying that it was a world friend? He was a little embarrassed, saying that it was a blind date? Although it was a fact, it was even more presumptuous and rude. Before he could think about it, he was interrupted by Cai Pingping.

"Hello, I'm his cousin, my name is Cai Pingping. Cai Pingping leaned over to Duan Shanshan and said into the microphone, she smiled happily and spoke very politely, "You guys talk, don't worry about me, just let me not exist!"

Duan Shanshan rolled his eyes helplessly, cousin, you really listened to your grandfather's words, his old man probably just said it casually, why are you still serious?

However, he didn't have the heart to dwell on trivial issues, so he hurriedly opened his mouth and went straight to the point: "Lao Liu, you are in such a hurry to call me home, is there something wrong?"

Liu Kewei was stunned, as if he had just remembered the matter at this time, so he also changed his tone and said, "Well, it's a bit of an emergency, I think it's a good thing, but I still have to discuss it with you." ”

Duan Shanshan spread his hands at the camera and motioned for Liu Kewei to continue.

"To put it simply, Manager Wang handed me all the game code, planning documents, art resources, etc., from the Holy Grail Studio so far......"

With Liu Kewei's narration, Duan Shanshan's mood also fluctuated, one moment said that he had a full set of quasi-alpha version of the data, one moment said that the copyright of art resources had been given to Ming Zhou, so it could only be used in the demonstration, and another time said that the bug of the collision detection system of the game engine might not be easy to solve, and finally mentioned the various suggestions given to him by Manager Wang, including setting up a studio and three solutions to that bug.

"Well, now you all know, the situation is completely different from before. So I have to ask you what you think, you can't let me have the final say on such a big matter!"

After Liu Kewei said a long list of words, he picked up the cup on the table and drank it all in one gulp, then got up and poured water.

When he came back, he saw that Duan Shanshan and Che Guanglong were frowning and didn't know what they were thinking, so he asked, "What, what do you think, just talk about it." ”

Duan Shanshan scratched his ears and said tentatively: "What's the difference between setting up a studio and not setting up?"

"If we can set up a studio, we can raise some of the money ourselves, and if we can exceed 50% of the total investment, we will have more control over the direction of the project, and we will be more confident in the face of investors' interference. The Holy Grail was like this before, although it was nominally a branch, but the administrative system on Mingzhou's side basically couldn't control the Holy Grail. In other words, we can decide how the game is going to be done. Liu Kewei explained.

"How much does that cost?" asked Che Guanglong.

"I did a rough calculation, if you can solve the bug on your side, the code of the program and the configuration table of the plan don't need to be moved, just tinker with a little new function, mainly art resources to be redone. That's a total of about 10 scene maps, 40 character models and matching bones, and 60 more textures and colors. And among these forty sets of character models, half of them are mission NPCs that don't require combat actions, plus the UI part is also required......"

"Stop, stop!" Duan Shanshan was dizzy by what he said, "Let's just say the conclusion, skip the process in the middle!"

Liu Kewei accepted Duan Shanshan's suggestion with kindness: "That is to say, we need one scene original painting, two scene 3D, two character original paintings, one action, one special effect, two character 3D, and one UI, and it took about four months to complete a full set of art resources." The monthly salary is estimated at 75,000, and four months is 300,000. There is not much planning and programming work, and the number of people needed is limited, and it will not add up to more than the art, if we take less ourselves, one or two hundred thousand is almost enough. ”

"What about the office space and machinery and equipment?" Che Guanglong, who has always been steady and cautious, asked calmly.

"We can rent a community apartment to do it secretly, if you don't need to rent an office building, it doesn't cost much, that's what we did before you came to the Holy Grail, at the beginning, our collective dormitory was actually the earliest office location of the Holy Grail Studio!" Liu Kewei said confidently, "As for the machinery and equipment, plus the rental cost, 100,000 should be more than enough, and it is estimated that 70,000 or 80,000 can be solved." ”

"So, if you add it up, in the best case, we only need less than 600,000 yuan to complete the alpha version! Even if we invest half of it, it's only 300,000 yuan, and it shouldn't be difficult for the three of us to make up this amount of money, right?" Liu Kewei turned his head to look at Che Guanglong a little nervously, and even couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"The question now is, are you sure you're going to fix that damn collision detection bug as soon as possible?"

P.S. Thanks to Mr. Fourteen for his careful calculation of the staffing needs of the art department and the cost of salary!
