Chapter 433: Build a Game Empire!
In fact, the reason why these people question Lin Han is only because he is too young, his qualifications are not comparable to other writers, and even because focusing on science fiction will give people the feeling of being misguided!
No matter how fast the times develop, in the eyes of many people, novels are a pastime that does not enter the stream, and letting such a young writer go to teach students at Peking University will inevitably cause controversy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Why people not only did not question Mo Yan's entry into the university as a professor, but welcomed it, because they recognized Mo Yan's ability and felt that he was qualified and capable of teaching students well!
What Lin Han can get his hands on now is the sales of the novel and a few trophies, and his social influence has just begun, since "Bring Her Eyes" was selected as a Chinese textbook for junior high school students, it has been steadily rising.
However, Peking University did not disappoint Lin Han, and their vice president Cai Yu told reporters bluntly: "In fact, the introduction of writers like Lin Han is not beneficial to our subject evaluation, and literary works will not improve our university subject rankings, and we will not give Lin Han millions of appearance fees." ”
Cai Yu's words are very upright, he has enough confidence, this is Peking University, one of the top universities in China, and it will not become a second-rate university because of the addition or departure of a writer.
At the same time, Lin Han is already a young man who has achieved fame, as a leader in the domestic science fiction industry, the characters who have appeared on the cover of the global edition of Time Magazine will not suddenly increase their popularity just because they joined Peking University!
It was meant to be a win-win!
"In my opinion, even our students who graduated from the Department of Chinese at Peking University generally have the problem of lack of creative writing ability in their mother tongue. He can only write official documents and essays, and his Chinese expression skills are getting weaker and weaker, so he can contact more writers like Lin Han, at least he can let students know what creative writing is all about. ”
In addition, although Sun Lei, vice president of Tsinghua University, who had a relationship with Lin Han, did not bring Lin Han to Tsinghua University, the incense between Lin Han and Tsinghua University could not be separated, so he also spoke to express support for Lin Han, "In any case, writers' residency should be supported." Their existence will become a part of the campus culture, and will quietly form a certain tradition of the school, which is very meaningful to writers and students! In many foreign universities, writers-in-residence poets are very common, and they are a way for literature and university education to communicate and complement each other, and I am looking forward to Lin Han's teaching career at Peking University. ”
The two most famous universities in China have stood up for Lin Han, and this respect lets everyone know that they are not joking, but seriously want to let Lin Han make something in the university!
With these two big names in the education world speaking, many neutral people remained silent, waiting for the day when Lin Han took office, and if the classroom performance was not good, they would directly attack.
……
"It's really strange, those people are not full of food, and they are staring at you one by one. This writer is not the first to enter the campus as a professor, you are not even ranked in the top ten, that group of people always speculates maliciously!"
Chen Jiaxuan said angrily, she threw the iPad on the sofa, and she pulled the doll's nose to hug the bear, as if the bear was a troll on the Internet.
Lin Han sat on the side and peeled the grapefruit, and he said unhurriedly: "Although I am not the first, maybe I have the attribute of recruiting black." After all, I'm a little too young, and it's possible that the navy organized by someone else wants to hack me and take revenge. ”
He rarely does sinnerful things, and being called such a dazzling writer means getting in the way of others, who doesn't know that as soon as Lin Han's new book came out, countless writers fled from the schedule in late July just to avoid him!
These writers who avoid "Resident Evil" may not be so cautious, but it doesn't mean that the publishers behind them don't want to take revenge, maybe it's Lin Han's decision that made them sell hundreds of thousands of fewer books!
A petal of peeled grapefruit appeared on the fruit plate, the crystal clear fruit looked very appetizing, Chen Jiaxuan grabbed a handful and put it in her mouth, the sweet and sour taste made her mood finally better.
"They can't make big waves, as long as their heads aren't crooked, they know it's a good thing. Lin Han said with relief, he only has the end of "Resident Evil" left, which has actually changed a lot from the plot of the original game, and the science fiction component is gradually decreasing, Lin Han is consciously increasing the rest of the writing.
For example, a lot of suspense and horror content has been written, all kinds of mystery decryption, science fiction can be written for a lifetime, but when the reader is tired of reading and writing, he has to find some new fun!
It's like big fish and big meat are delicious, but people can't just eat them in their lives, they have to be paired with some porridge and side dishes, and changing the taste will sometimes surprise people more.
Of course, "Resident Evil" is just a transition, not a direct transformation, Lin Han always has to add things to it little by little, and he can't become a fat man in one go.
In the next time, it became Chen Jiaxuan's personal talk show time: "Today, Mr. Fu of Xingyue Games came to me again, saying that he wanted to cooperate with us to develop the game "Three-Body Problem", but he wanted to empty the gloves and persuade us to invest in their company in the form of "Three-Body Problem" game copyright, accounting for 25% of the share. It's so beautiful, why don't he just let us give him the copyright for free!"
"I guess he also wants to keep this company, after all, he has put so much effort into it. Lin Han can understand this feeling, Fu Zhan single-handedly built Xingyue Company from scratch, experienced the global popularity of "The Martian", and then the collapse of "The Dragon of Destruction", which is not something that ordinary people can bear.
"It's not caused by us, anyway, you can't just promise him, what if you hand over the copyright of "Three-Body Problem" to him, but Xingyue Games collapses, it's not that it was pitted. ”
Lin Han has always felt that Fu Zhan is a very good person, and now he wants to help him, and it just so happens that the novel he is writing seems to be related to games, I don't know if "Resident Evil" can still be popular in this world if it becomes a game!
As soon as he thought of this, Lin Han became excited, this is not the nineties of the last century, and "Resident Evil" will not meet the peak of handheld sales, there are too many games to choose from on the market!
No one can guarantee that "Resident Evil" will be as successful as in the previous life, but it is precisely because of this uncertainty that it is necessary to try it, who can guarantee that everything can be done to make money?
Since there are very few handhelds now, simply make the PC version or mobile version of the game directly, taking into account the PS series and XBOne and X360 and other home game consoles, the same game should not be released on different platforms There should be not many problems, I am afraid that the performance of the mobile phone will not be able to hold on!
As long as the game is made, it is a matter for technical personnel to adapt it to these platforms, which should be a relatively easy thing to solve, and many games adopt this full-platform release method to meet the needs of any game group.
"My dear, have you ever considered a thing, since Xingyue Games is so miserable now, why don't we just buy it?" Lin Han said while thinking: "Compared with other companies, at least Xingyue Games knows the roots, and the price is definitely not too high, others are in a hurry to get rid of it." ”
Chen Jiaxuan never thought that Lin Han wanted to directly become a shareholder from a stock speculator, or go one step further to become a boss, "After buying Xingyue Games, we have to find a project for them, right?"
Speaking of this, Lin Han showed a smile, "Actually, we have accumulated a lot of game resources in our hands, and just adapting my novel is enough for them to be busy for many years." For example, "Resident Evil" that I am writing is particularly suitable for adaptation into a game, and even I directly helped them do a good job of the game's plot and setting! I don't feel at ease about handing over something like "Three-Body Problem" to other game companies to produce, so it's better to make it myself, at least I can make any requests. ”
"It's possible that we spend money to buy a burden for ourselves, in case the sales prospects of the "Resident Evil" developed by the time are not good, wouldn't it be a loss to my wife and soldiers, and I have to go to my grandmother's house!"
Buying a game company is not child's play, because it costs money, and you have to take the game copyright worth millions to your company for development, Chen Jiaxuan is more cautious.
Lin Han looked at Chen Jiaxuan seriously, and said jokingly: "Hey, are we in our twenties or sixties? How can we make sure that we can make money in business, and how can we know if we don't try! I think that success is very good, some of them have skills, we have works and well-known publicity, isn't this combination the best choice?"
When Chen Jiaxuan heard this, she couldn't help but pout, "Okay, okay, it's your money anyway, and you can earn it again when you spend it." ”
"That's it, maybe we can build a game empire!" Lin Han said half-truthfully, he really looked forward to Xingyue Games making so many classic games in his head.
Not to mention anything else, the popularity of the "Resident Evil" series and the "Three-Body Problem" series of games can at least guarantee that they will not lose money, Lin Han's readers are all over the world, as long as the game is not too bad, there will be many readers to play under the attraction of the novel!
What's more, Lin Han is also counting on Star Leap Games to produce games such as "Star Wars Eve", "Home", "Halo", "Apocalypse", "Battlefield" and even "Red Alert", "Final Fantasy", "Mass Effect" and so on!
With so many games piled up, if Xingyue Games doesn't expand its scale, I'm afraid that the game in Lin Han's mind may not be able to be completed in ten years.
Not to mention that he also wants to promote StarCraft, a real-time strategy game that promotes esports! )
