Chapter 675: Cultural Strategy
This brand new game development mission has excited the members of the three teams in the development department.
If they were asked to make a Three Kingdoms game before, they would feel a little like vomiting, thinking that this was a theme that everyone had played badly, but now the task assigned by Zhao Li makes them feel fresh.
No mistake is fresh, from this point of view, the tasks assigned by Zhao Li are very challenging, combined with history, and then let players play freely, and then see who can get greater challenges and achievements in these games, this is simply not a game, but a real world that can be challenged independently.
And all this is not built on the illusion, but on the real historical data.
What else is there to say about the museum's thousand-year-old collection, and everything can be used by these people?
In the past, those were weak.
Let's take a look at those games in China. You can make money with a Three Kingdoms theme, think about foreign countries, two of the three most successful games in the development of Three Kingdoms games are foreign. It's still a little Japanese.
Whether it's Heroes of the Three Kingdoms, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, or Warriors of the Three Kingdoms, the three famous Three Kingdoms-themed games are actually only part of the game, but it's this part that makes these games a big hit.
But are these things faithful to the epic? Disloyalty, not to mention that these games are just some low-degree of freedom games, judging from the games of the second world released before, what Zhao Li is asking for must be a game with a very high degree of freedom, otherwise he would not have arranged a supercomputer to support the hardware of the entire game.
This kind of hardware support may seem like a no-brainer, but it's actually a supercomputer for a game. Already quite exaggerated.
And this is still a stand-alone game!
According to Zhao Li's meaning, this is obviously just a stand-alone game to expand the content of the game helmet.
But this one-camera game. It can accommodate a lot of time nodes.
Like the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties? Or Xia Shang Zhou? You can go! If you don't like it, the Stone Age is fine, as long as you are willing, the game is the best carrier for your time travel.
The eyes of these employees looking at Zhao Li were completely different. This brain hole is simply too big, but at this time, the water has no way to pick a thorn, after all, this is still the boss.
However, in private, these employees gave Zhao Li a nickname, Robot Cat.
Whether it's the new technology he didn't know where to escape, or his infinite brain model, it seems to be a bit similar to that blue fat man.
"Mr. Zhao, let's make this game like this, how can we make a profit?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhao, the profit point of this kind of game is completely invisible!"
For online games in general. Whether it is selling point cards, or the legendary Chinese style of selling props without selling point cards, it is actually a very good profit model, but this profit model is not suitable for this game company.
According to Zhao Li, this is a stand-alone game, if it is just by selling CD-KEY, I know if those people will buy it.
"How our related single-player games are profitable, we will make money!"
In fact, the game companies I found before basically made a profit by selling CD-KEY.
"Mr. Zhao. This kind of stand-alone game, will it be a little pitted, you should also know about our domestic stand-alone form, it's just a bright future! ”
"It's okay!" Zhao Li waved his hand. This is just a political task, and it can be regarded as a brick thrown by yourself, and it is of course the best to attract jade. If you can't attract it, you can be regarded as completing a political task. This is more important than anything else.
What's more, this is still used to promote the country's culture, and this is well done. It can also show that Cybertron Technology focuses on these topics of people's livelihood.
Coupled with Zhao Li's deliberate low-key at this time. It is also a good choice for this game to enter the public's field of vision silently.
"Mr. Zhao!" Curator Jin, who chose to stay on the side to organize and coordinate the work, spoke. "Although I don't know what a game is called an old antique like me, if I think that if we can experience the life of the ancients, I think it is still very interesting, such as the ancient private school, such as the ancient Hanlin Academy, I think our modern students, cut those who are not lost, and definitely not lose to those ancient literati bachelors."
He studied history and admired the scholars of ancient times, especially those beautiful poems and so on.
But at this time, he had to face a reality, that is, the reality that these beautiful poems were about to be passed on.
With these experiences, he really wants to experience it, even though he is very old, although he is past the age of playing games, but if he can, he also wants to see what ancient times were like.
In particular, historical monuments such as the Old Summer Palace and the Yellow Crane Tower, as well as Afang Palace and other places of interest that have disappeared in the long river of history.
Those things that are gone forever will be the driving force behind many people to visit.
"Even if we sell CD-KEY, as long as we can make people really feel like they are in ancient times, our games will not sell!" Zhao Li's idea is very clear, as long as the game itself is done well at this time, then the game will not be sold, and he will have a relatively stable adaptation strategy, and different countries will find it.
What country doesn't want its population to know about its country's history? What country doesn't want to be remembered for what their country has done? I'm afraid there is no other country in the world except Japan.
Whether it is good or bad, the history of the country itself in this world is an unavoidable reality, and it is also the root of a country's real cultivation of young people who love their country.
If you just look at the plum blossoms, if you don't face yourself, then everything is illusory.
And everything in these historical materials, Zhao Li does not plan to change, the previous dynasties have changed. The natural and man-made disasters recorded in the previous history, Zhao Li did not plan to change them.
But soon after the progress was made in the history of the country. Another person Zhao Li didn't expect came up.
Or rather, it wasn't him who found it, but his agent.
Several big names in the domestic martial arts industry came to the door. Their purpose is also very pure, whether it is a game or a film or television work, they also want to see what level this Cybertron technology can achieve.
Although a few of them have already said that they have sealed the pen, but for them, the longevity of the work is the most important, not to mention that Zhao Li's company's products are exported overseas, and there may be the possibility of driving new readers.
Coupled with Cybertron Technology's original performance in games, if Zhao Li can really develop a new game at this time, and can really turn these martial arts novels into games, then this is completely different.
This is the broker in front of you. It represents several masters of martial arts novels, but what surprised Zhao Li was that they didn't want money.
Although he was impressed by the bearing of several masters, Zhao Li still handed over 20% of the final sales profits of this game to several masters in the form of script shares, as for what they did with the money, Zhao Li couldn't control it, but he couldn't do it just with benefits, plus these things were worthless even in the eyes of these masters, this was also their hard work.
Twenty percent is not a lot. It can only be said that it is a little heart.
For Zhao Li's very polite approach, this agent is not hypocritical. Anyway, even if they don't collect money, they can use the money according to their own free will, and when the time comes, they will establish a foundation to support poor children. Or go to set up a charity fund, it's all a matter for a few masters.
"Mr. Zhao, the meaning of several masters is to make these previous works into games or movies. With your technique, it shouldn't be a problem to make it. However, several masters have one requirement, and that is after it is produced. Must be released worldwide! The agent was not hypocritical, and directly said the final bottom line, which is also the bottom line of his negotiation.
"Our Cybertron Technologies' games, as soon as they land on this game helmet, will be released globally. And we have another very important thing, that is, we want to make an all-round production of this game, since there are a lot of works by several masters, what I want to consider now is whether to follow the previous ideas, according to this work to create a game that follows the plot, or according to our current concept, to make a game that just builds this martial arts world, and then allows players to participate! Zhao Li was a little hesitant, after all, these classics are still very marketable.
"New concept!" That broker doesn't think about it at all. "If Mr. Zhao thinks it's impossible, you can come in both modes, and I believe it shouldn't be difficult for you Cybertron Technology."
It's not that hard.
"Okay! Say hello to the masters on my behalf! Zhao Li sent the agent away, and his eyes suddenly looked at Curator Jin on the side.
"This time the Ministry of Culture has taken a big action!" Several masters will definitely not be found for no reason, judging from the actions of this museum before, these masters are probably also entrusted by others.
"Yes! The Ministry of Culture's battle plan this time is to enhance cultural influence, and at this time I think no one can establish other advantages under your technological superiority, our culture is not lost to others, but there is no good means of propaganda, since the official propaganda means are not good, then we will follow your path, since at this time we have no way to follow what TV series and movies in other countries, then we will take the game of young people as a breakthrough. Sell our culture in a different way. "Director Jin has a deep understanding of the above policies.
"This is a solution, but who brought this matter up, I don't look like those official handwritings!" Accustomed to those official styles, Zhao Li was very puzzled by this, after all, whether it was to find himself or after this, their museums shared their own dividends, and it was rare that no one interfered in the interests of them, which is still rare in the official.
"It was the Great Elder himself who brought it up!" Curator Jin laughed very loudly, and anyone could see his pride at this time.
After all, if this matter was brought up by the Great Elder himself, then as the leader of this project, he could be regarded as a person who listened to the heavens directly. It should be regarded as showing a face.
Arching his hand at Curator Najin, Zhao Li stepped forward with a smile. "Congratulations, the curator has a bright future in the future!"
White-eyed Zhao Li, Director Jin shook his head casually. "I really haven't thought about getting promoted and making a fortune in this matter, but if it can really solve the problem that these museums of ours have to rely on finances to eat, then I will really burn high incense! Mr. Zhao, don't you make money by doing this, you will lose money no matter how you look at it! ”
"Loss? If I do this project, at least there will be millions of more domestic helmet sales, and if you do a good job, it can be tens of millions, so that at least hundreds of millions of money, now our Cybertron technology power is not a problem, even supercomputers can be manufactured by themselves, as long as they can return to their costs, why don't we do this kind of money-making thing? Speaking of this, Zhao Li smiled weirdly. What's more, we can't make a lot of money from our own people, can't we still make money from foreigners? (To be continued......)
