A new semester has begun, and this semester is a very peculiar one. The new students have infinite hope for the half-housed city, the beautiful half-house, the strange plants, the new life experience, everything is so magical for them, as if the road ahead is bright. But there is a group of students who are facing the fate of possibly leaving the half-house city at this moment.

The two-year term of Hantaku University is coming soon. There are not a few students who have not been able to enter Level 2 so far, and this semester is their last chance to work hard. For them, if they can't seize this opportunity, then they will most likely have to leave the half-housed city.

If you go to the second level, you can easily find a job in the half-house city even if you leave Hantaku University. But if you can't level up, even if you're just a little bit behind, other companies won't be able to directly recognize your strength, and it's not so easy to enter an anime game studio or company in Bantaku. They are already accustomed to living in a half-house city, so they naturally don't want to give up just like that, so they can start to study hard.

And Zheng Lu and the others are also holding the first teachers' meeting of the new semester at this moment. This has become a practice, mainly to announce the future schedule, as well as the benefits of each project, and so on.

"Because Mr. Gao Zhipeng has resigned, there is a temporary shortage of teachers in the music department, but it has been filled by a second-level student with outstanding performance, and there is no one who can be promoted to teacher in other departments. The hope of the Administration Department is to determine how many teachers will remain in the school in the future, and they will be able to make arrangements. ”

Gao Zhipeng has had nothing to do in the past six months, and he is all working for game companies from the outside world, so the glasses girl directly terminated his contract. But this also fulfilled his wishes, and when he went out, he found a game company in the city half of the house and became a music director.

The purpose of Han Luoqi's meeting today is to determine the number of teachers who will stay at Hanzhai University in the future. The number required by each department is not consistent, for example, the demand for dubbing is relatively large, while the demand for music is less. The animation department is the most in demand, and the manga department can maintain the Hantaku manga website as long as it can maintain it, and game development is second.

After discussion, the number of teachers in each department was determined, and although it was not made up so quickly, it was natural for students to jump in.

"Next is the project income during the winter vacation, the form has been handed over to you, everyone check it, if there are no mistakes or omissions, sign it."

Zheng Lu took a closer look, and "Promotion Chart" sold about 3.5 million copies, ranking first among all projects, and finally didn't embarrass himself. Other teachers saw Zheng Lu's results and also stepped forward to congratulate him. Teachers from other departments who participated in the Zheng Lu project are also very happy, and the better the results, the more dividends they will pay.

"Zheng Lu, do you really plan to let the students do this "Promotion Chart 2"?"

Now that the lion housekeeper is married, he values money and everything more, so he can't understand why Zheng Lu gave up the development of the second-generation game. Since the news was last announced on the half-house website, it has also caused a fierce reaction from a large number of fans of "Promotion Chart", and it was later Zheng Lu who promised that he would supervise the development process to quell their protests.

"Yes, students, where can you become a talent without training? Besides, they have a wide field of vision and can bring new ideas to the game, maybe they do even better than when I was there. ”

Zheng Lu doesn't care much about giving up the development right of the sequel, and he is quite confident in the students he brought out, so it shouldn't be difficult to do a good job in the development of the second generation.

"Well, if nothing else, that's all for today's meeting."

"Wait, I want to say a few words!"

Han Luoqi was about to announce the dismissal of the meeting, but he didn't expect Zheng Lu to stand up. A few teachers still wanted to go to the celebration banquet, but they were stopped by this kid, and they couldn't help biting their teeth with hatred.

"Since the establishment of Hanzhai University, the domestic animation and game market has been basically occupied, and the host Pangu is about to be sold, according to the influence of our Hanzhai University today, it is not difficult to occupy most of the market share. So I think we shouldn't just focus on the domestic market, it's time to hit the foreign market! ”

"Zheng Lu, the domestic market is occupied by us, but if everyone develops Western-oriented games in one go, it will make the situation quite unstable, and this matter has to be slowed down."

Han Luoqi's doubts were reasonable, and everyone nodded in agreement with Han Luoqi's statement. The acceptance of Western games in China needs to be cultivated slowly, and if they go in this direction and cause a backlash from domestic players, it will have a certain impact on the release of new consoles. The overall situation is undecided, but it is still prudent.

"No, I'm not asking everyone to make all Western-oriented games, but I hope that everyone will always have that in mind. Try to add some Western or modern elements to your anime and game works, which will definitely help to hit the foreign market in the future. ”

Going to the world is something that Zheng Lu has been thinking about all along, and now that he has such conditions, as long as he slowly turns the head of the car, this trend is unstoppable. Zheng Lu naturally doesn't think that it can be done overnight, but at least he must have this awareness and slowly make changes.

Everyone understands what Zheng Lu said, everything is going on imperceptibly, and the integration of Eastern and Western cultures is also the general trend, and it is also necessary to prepare early. Therefore, everyone agreed with Zheng Lu's statement, and planned to integrate a little Western or modern elements into their respective works.

"Okay Zheng Lu, everyone understands what you want to say. Now hurry up and treat you! ”

Who made Zheng Lu the king of the quarter, and the game that only sold for one month pressed everyone down, of course, it was a big hemorrhage. Now there are many hotels in the outer city, and everyone is tired of the food on campus, so they all run outside to eat.

Also accompanied by Zheng Lu's three right-hand men, Lin Fan, Jiang Miao and Song Yue. Zheng Lu is planning to give them the development rights of "Promotion Chart 2", and after reading the plan they co-wrote and handed in, Zheng Lu is still quite satisfied, young people really have their own ideas, which are worth cultivating.

"When the three of you were just promoted to the second level, you have been following me, and I am relieved of the level. Now let you do it, and you can't slack off. It's not so easy to develop a best-selling second-generation game, and if you do a good job, you will naturally gain fame and fortune, but once you don't do it well, you will have to bear a lot of criticism, understand? ”

People are animals that need pressure to move forward, so Zheng Lu added some pressure to the three of them so that they would not relax too much. The three of them were also very grateful to Zheng Lu for giving them this opportunity, so they all promised one after another.

"Teacher, are you going to develop another game?"

"Yes, the project has been completed, and the recruitment notice has been posted, haven't you seen it?"

Lin Fan and the others have just arrived at the school, so they haven't gone to see the school notice yet, and besides, they themselves are people with projects, so naturally they won't go to see it. In order for these three people to develop a good game, Zheng Lu released the original team to them, and he went to recruit a new group of people.

After entertaining everyone for dinner, Zheng Lu gathered the members of the original "Promotion Chart" and explained the distribution of profits to everyone. Hantaku University will automatically transfer the money to their bank card, just check it online. Finally, I encouraged everyone to work with peace of mind under the guidance of the new team leader and achieve greater success.

In the end, he also warned Lin Fan that because it was a three-person cooperation, it was inevitable that there would be some differences. When you encounter something, you can't do it brutally, you have to discuss it, and if there is something that can't be solved, you can go to him.

Zheng Lu's wordy appearance made everyone laugh. This teacher is really good, not easy-tempered, and there is nothing except for being scolded for work mistakes. Now that they are leaving, they also look very concerned, and these students with the surname are really a little moved.

It's no wonder that when Zheng Lu opened a new project, those second-level students all broke their heads, worked happily and paid high dividends, where to find such a boss? Zheng Lu's gang of people have gained a lot of money, and they are not good hands if they fail to get more than 100,000 dividends this time. In the list of student vitality released by the school, Zheng Lu's students have almost all the previous ones, except for those who have been single-minded or have old qualifications.

"Teacher, your new project is a third-person shooter, which is not a few in China, is it really okay?"

"Nonsense, what kind of person am you teacher, where is it difficult for me to fall into a little difficulty?"

After a burst of laughter, Zheng Lu left the place. The game script has already been written by Yang Yan, but it will take some time, and during this time, he will have to take time out to teach Fujii and them to learn.

"Zheng Lu, I heard that your console is about to start a development conference, is your next game going to be on this platform?"

"Yes, the function of this Pangu console is much stronger than that of Jade Pupil Jane, and the game I am developing needs this kind of powerful function."

Fujii also knew that there were confidentiality regulations for developing games, so he didn't ask in detail, but he expressed a strong interest in this console. It's no wonder that Hanyaku University's handheld consoles have overwhelmed both Nintendo and Sony in the Chinese market, and now they are going to release consoles, which naturally arouses their strong attention.

"It's better to do this, tomorrow the press conference of the Pangu host will be held in the center of the business district, I also have some tickets here, please go and watch it together, how about it?"

Fujii Ichi kept asking about the Pangu host, and Zheng Lu, who asked, was a little annoyed, and said that the press conference was meant to be watched, so he handed him the ticket directly, and then slipped away.

Nowadays, the students from all the schools in the city have almost arrived, and there are many tourists who come to the city, so the business district is the best place to hold the press conference. In the center of the business district, there is a large shopping mall of the half-taku city, which sells all kinds of products of the half-taku university, such as seeds of exotic plants, anime and game products, and merchandise, but the main purpose is to hold large-scale events.

In order to hold this press conference well and attract more tourists, the administrative department of Hantaku University has done many advertisements, and the release time is chosen on Saturday and Sunday, which should attract many people.

The launch event lasts for two days, and the show and the like are essential, and the game trial is a top priority. However, this time the game is all made by half-house immortals. Based on the creativity of teachers and students, a creative solicitation was held not long ago, which was held for today. Zheng Lu naturally also submitted a few ideas, just to earn some extra money for himself.

Domestic third-party software vendors have invited a lot of them, although they have not yet joined their games, after all, the third party will also react based on the share of the host. Now they prefer to make games for Jade Pupil Jane, because there is a lot of insurance. Only a few big game companies have declared to join the Pangu platform and have already started to develop games. This is because they are optimistic about the prospects of Pangu, and the result of Hanzhai University's great efforts.

Zhang Zijie of the linkage company also arrived at the scene. Their company's ebox is now in a very embarrassing situation, the foreign market can't do Microsoft, and now the domestic market is facing the challenge of Pangu. The most important thing is that now their third-party software vendors have all defected to Jade Pupil. Even several foreign software vendors, after cooperating a few times, felt that they were not interested, so they turned to Banzhai University.

In other words, the only way to support the ebox software market now is the support of linking itself and Hantaku University. The ratio is 1 to 9, and half of the university accounts for 90% of the share. How ironic is this that their own software market is actually supported by their opponents, and as long as they want to, they can end their lives at any time.

Faced with such a situation, Zhang Zijie tried countless methods, but the result still could not be changed. Fortunately, Hantaku University has always regarded ebox as a good place to train students to do game planning, so it has been maintained, otherwise ebox would have fallen into the dilemma of running out of ammunition and food.

"Alas, it's ridiculous, but in the end it's someone else's clothes. It seems that we can only transfer to a third party after the linkage. ”

Zhang Zijie looked at the scene of the booming press conference, all kinds of games were bursting, and the trial area was full of people, this kind of scene was like a needleprick, stimulating Zhang Zijie's heart. Just like Sega was defeated by Nintendo back then, Linkage has also lost confidence in competing for the hardware market at this moment.

In fact, hardware generally does not make money or earns very little, and some are even sold at a loss, which is an international practice. The more ebox is sold, the more it loses, but the software market can't make much money, so there is already a financial crisis. Before Zhang Zijie came, he had already met with the board of directors and decided to start discontinuing ebox next month, announcing the complete loss of the hardware position. It's really sad that the opponent's hardware has not been officially released, and it has driven itself to death.

"We link, even if the hardware is lost, the software must be saved! I don't care which platform it is, as long as it's popular enough, I can join. ”

The tone set at the meeting is the reason why Zhang Zijie came here. What is the prospect of the Pangu host, it is still necessary to observe it on the spot, the linkage is already stormy, and it can no longer be hit.

"Isn't this the linkage of Mr. Zhang? Welcome, welcome! ”

Xie Chaochao was also at the press conference at the moment, and as soon as he got off the stage after making a speech, he saw Zhang Zijie walking around.

"The general of the defeated army, I didn't expect Mr. Xie to remember."

Zhang Zijie also sighed with some emotion, Xie Chaochao was still a little-known figure more than a year ago, but now he is famous all over the world.

"The matter of ebox is really regrettable, I hope Mr. Zhang will not hold a grudge."

"Where, the mall is head-to-head, even if you lose, you have no regrets, and you can't talk about the word grudge. In the future, I will become a third party under Hanzhai University, but I still have to rely on you. ”

The two were standing there talking and laughing, and when the reporter on the side saw this kind of scene, he originally thought that the two were going to fight, and they had set up their cameras and waited to capture them. turned out to be a smile and a grudge, which was really disappointing to him.

"The talent training mechanism of Hantaku University is really wonderful. It's no wonder that in less than two years, it has already led the way in China, and others can't learn it even if they want to. ”

Zhang Zijie really admires Hanzhai University, at the beginning, it was not in hardware and linkage, but concentrated on cultivating his own game development talents. Linkage stares at the hardware market, immersed in the joy of success, but ignores the development of software, and when it reacts to the software market has been pinched in the palm of the hand by Hanzhai University, it is too late to think of what to do. This Xie Chaochao is really a difficult guy.

Zhang Zijie didn't know that everything was done by the half-house immortals, and Xie Chaochao was the general representative of the business of the half-house university, so he naturally thought that he arranged it single-handedly.

"Talents, you will have them soon, we will not hold them all in the palm of our hands. Half a year later, that's when those first-level students graduate. Although they didn't move up to Level 2, they had more skills than the other newcomers, and I promise they didn't have to be any worse! A year later, the second-level students will come out of the half-house university one after another, and the linkage will have to seize the opportunity at that time. ”

Xie Chaochao's words are mostly nonsense, who doesn't know that the students of Banzhai University are all talents, especially the second-level students. Before they graduated, they began to rush to ask for it, but these people were reluctant to leave the half-house university.

"To tell Mr. Zhang the truth, the goal of our half-house university is not all in China, and going abroad is the ultimate goal of us."

Xie Chaochao pointed to a group of people in the distance, and then patted Zhang Zijie's shoulder and smiled.

These people, all foreigners, were led by an interpreter and walked around each of the trial areas with great interest. If you have fun, you will scream again and again, which will attract the attention of people at the scene.

"They are?"

Zhang Zijie only felt that these people were a little familiar, but he couldn't think of them for a while.

"Hehe, guess what."
