Chapter 210: Torchlight
Li Feiteng was busy with the loan to build the unfinished building in Xiamen, and he also called back to Yanjing every day to ask about the progress of Xu Changlong and Yao Xian's work.
Since the establishment of Yunteng Games last year, Li Feiteng has invested tens of millions of RMB in games, plus the $15 million raised by Son Zhengyi this time, Yunteng Games' family foundation is actually very thick.
As early as last year, Li Feiteng reached a contract with a large domestic logistics company, and when he determined it, a large truck began to set off from Yanjing, loaded with Yunteng game's family property and shipped to Xiamen.
Leaving aside the hardware equipment purchased by the company, there is still a full 100 million RMB on the Yunteng game account, which is mainly the 15 million US dollars financed by Masayoshi Son to huàn, the previous tens of millions, only 20 million remained.
Yunteng Games has invested a huge amount of money, but in fact, from the Three Kingdoms Kill, Xianjian 98, and Xuanyuan Sword 2 under development, they are all loss-making projects, and now Yunteng's most important "Cloud Soul 2D Engine" and "Blood Soul 2D Engine" The two domestic engines have finally been developed one after another, and it took a total of three months and a cost of 60 million RMB.
Li Feiteng spends money to make domestic engines, not to make money, but to change the backward situation of domestic games, he is not ready to make money by engines, and Li Feiteng intends to use the two game engines to complete the game development, at the end of this year on the Internet to establish a domestic game technology exchange forum, the two game engines of the source code to the world, free of charge for domestic companies to learn and use.
This is going to be. He hasn't sued anyone yet. Because of such behavior. In the eyes of many people, it is an idiotic behavior, and even Li Feiteng himself feels that his heart is too soft.
But in fact, game engine technology is a technology closely related to many industries, which is not only directly related to the game's life, but most importantly to film special effects, and many film and television image technology industries.
If Li Feiteng relies on engines to make huge profits today, then many foreign game companies will sell cheaper and cheaper engines to invade China. Let China's game, movie, animation and other image technology industries continue to decline.
When more than a dozen industries fall and an industrial chain has problems, it is not as simple as a sacrifice of 60 million RMB, but a loss of 6 trillion yuan!
Li Feiteng hopes to wake up the development boom of domestic game companies through his behavior, but he understands that sharing the results cannot drive the entire industry, and only if he takes the lead in making money and shouldering the responsibility of the leader of the rise of domestic games, can he completely achieve the desire to realize the prosperity of national games.
After four or five days, the logistics company transported all the hardware equipment of Yunteng Games from Yanjing to Xiamen. A total of 215 Yunteng employees took planes or trains in batches. The transfer of the brigade came to the city of Xiamen.
Li Feiteng had already chartered a big hotel, with 215 employees, each of whom had three days of free accommodation, and spent nearly 80,000 yuan of Li Feiteng's private money.
That's right, he paid out of his own pocket to invite all the employees to live in this big hotel, and in the past three days, 215 employees gathered in the hotel's large conference room to receive training and guidance from Li Feiteng.
In the past three days, he is not only talking about the development technology of the game, but also instilling the confidence that every employee of Yunteng wants a domestic game to prosper.
"Diablo" 2 and 3 have not yet been released, and the "Blood Soul 2D Game Engine" developed by Li Feiteng and Yunteng Games is a game engine that belongs to the dark style.
The two versions of Diablo 1 have become popular abroad, and he chose a role-playing game that can be expressed in a dark style - "Torchlight" as the first work of Yunteng's export game.
The dark style 2D version of "Torchlight" is an idea that Li Feiteng produced very early, and when he handed over the game planning plan to Xu Changlong and several team leaders to watch, the group leaders admired him indescribably.
There are three major professions in this game, namely the destroyer, the alchemist, and the conqueror, with an open career system, equipment system, pet system, dungeon dungeon, and upgrade system, all five major systems will subvert the concept of traditional games and bring people a game experience that they have never experienced.
In the temporarily rented office, Li Feiteng personally supervised and guided more than 100 game development members to develop "Torchlight", and the game development progress soared like a rocket every day, and he pondered that according to this progress, the game would be completed in less than a month and a half.
The core of a game is the engine, it can be said that with the game engine, coupled with the perfect and detailed game planning plan, the rest of the work will be carried out without lag, and there is no problem in producing a game every month.
"The graphics rendered in the game are a little darker, don't worry about the players not being able to see clearly, we want to impress the players. ”
Li Feiteng walked around the company, commanding and inspecting every open post, and correcting any problems immediately.
"BOSS, there are a few people in our group. Yao Xian walked up with a smile and said.
"Okay, bring me over and develop the torch together. Li Feiteng nodded, he pondered for a while, found Xu Changlong, and asked several team leaders to have a meeting together.
In the humble conference room, Li Feiteng was smoking a cigarette, he held a large notebook in his hand, knocked on the table and said: "Lao Xu, the progress of the torch is a little faster, I want some people to stop first and develop an online chess and card game room." ”
"Boss, tell me more. ”
Li Feiteng nodded, and he continued: "Backgammon, Xiangqi, Fighting Landlords, Go, Military Banner, in short, I mean developing a chess and card game platform that can be used for multiple games online, or LAN battles. ”
Saying that, Li Feiteng also suddenly thought of a very simple game, that is, Lianliankan, a simple game like this, which may not even be used for a day when developed, but the game users brought are really unimaginable.
Xu Changlong also had inspiration, he understood what Li Feiteng meantg, nodded excitedly and said: "Boss, this is simple, find 20 people to make a group, it will take less than half a month to get it." ”
Li Feiteng listened, nodded and smiled in praise, and at the same time, he also told Xu Changlong about this kind of puzzle game, and asked him to write it out and put it on the Internet, and the name was "Yunteng Pet Lianliankan". (To be continued......)
