Qin Yuanfeng looked at everyone with joy.

Four people, not much, but it was the first team he started.

If there is no cha cuò, this will be the core team of the Qin Dynasty in the future.

Plus him, so fat, six people. But these six people have the ambition to challenge the entire electronic entertainment dynasty!

"Everybody sit." He took the lead and sat down, beckoning the others to take their seats, "Introduce yourself." ”

"Xu Lishu." A girl with two ponytails stood up with a sweet smile on her face, "Vice President of the Art Club, Senior Qin, it's not the first time we've met." ”

Qin Yuanfeng remembered her, when she was in the art club, this girl handed over two paintings, which was the most except for the president.

"Zhou Yujian." As soon as he finished speaking, a boy with a somewhat indifferent expression lifted his black-rimmed glasses, just nodded his head, and did not speak again.

Zhong Han looked at Qin Yuanfeng's expression with a smile, but now he just smiled, and couldn't help but be angry in his heart, "Mr. Qin, you don't know him?" ”

"Don't recognize?" Qin Yuanfeng looked at Zhong Han with a little surprise, could it be that Zhou Yujian was very famous?

Zhong Han stroked his forehead with a headache, "You are a scholar in the science department of your department, and Zhou Yujian, the second year of ten thousand years." Hey, I said you're either fourth or third, and you don't even remember him?! It took a lot of effort to convince him to do an internship here. ”

He is so old and energetic to dig the other party over, but Qin Yuanfeng nodded lightly and it was over?!

Qin Yuanfeng was speechless, he really didn't know the other party, so he could only smile and shake his hand, "It turned out to be you, Jiuyang, Jiuyang." ”

"This is lofty." Zhong Han introduced depressedly, "Like Zhou Yujian, he is also a programmer. ”

He paused and said, "Although they come from different majors, and their names may not be on the school's big exam scores, they do have their own specialties, and most importantly, they all love games!" ”

Qin Yuanfeng smiled and waved his hand, "Everyone will be colleagues in the future." Now that I have come to the company, the scores and classes of the previous school are no longer important. Today's purpose is to tell you about the company's future exhibition direction. ”

Everyone sat up straight and listened.

"I'm a doer." He restrained his smile and said sternly, "The first rule of the company, anyone, must obey the command. ”

"If you have doubts, you can mention them, I can explain them. But you can't refuse. ”

After saying that, he quietly looked at everyone, and no one objected.

He nodded, "Rest, I won't say much, Zhong Han will list the company's rules, and everyone just needs to implement them." What I want to tell you today is the current state of the company. ”

"I'm not here these days, the school should have publicized it, and everyone knows that the company has eight million dollars in funding." He groaned, "Do you think it's a lot? ”

"Definitely!" Xu Lishu was the first to speak: "This is eight million!" Converted to tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars! That's not much? ”

"Yes...... Gao Yuan also nodded again and again, "The company is strong, and the employees are guaranteed." We're all interning in our senior year, and we plan to become the backbone of the company. ”

Qin Yuanfeng shook his head, "Wrong, eight million, it seems like a lot, but it's actually very little!" And it's pitiful! ”

Seeing everyone's surprised and puzzled eyes, he continued, "I'll tell you about the steps of the game. First, you need to know the company's positioning. ”

"The company is positioned as a third-party software company, and of course, this is temporary. What is a third party? The host is the first party, and we make software for them, which is the third party. Simply put. He cleared his throat and said, "Once you've joined a faction, whether it's Sega or Nintendo - there are only two factions in the world right now. Then, all our data will appear in their database at once. Enter their monitoring department. ”

He simply stood up, took out a pen, and drew a circle on the board he had specially made, and then drew seven or eight more circles, connected them with a line.

"Of course, now that we have a game that Sega is optimistic about, they might pay a little more attention to us. However, you must know that even if Sega is not as good as Nintendo, there are definitely no less than a dozen or twenty game companies like us with millions or tens of millions of funds. Not to mention the smaller ones - I'm talking about liquid assets, not reserve funds. And once we all come to find the red, then ......"

He drew another circle on top of the first circle, tapped it with a pen and said, "It is possible to enter the quality sequence of Sega and become the company that he values more." ”

"Now the problem arises." He put down his pen and spread his hands, "Our game project is to be reported to Sega, and then after their arrangement, for example, we are a large company, and they are about to deploy a new console, so it is likely to be tied to our game for marketing." So we have to go through Sega's projects, but they don't have the right to veto. ”

"Because of this, this involves Sega's project schedule, and in order to prevent the plan from being completed and affecting Sega's process, we need to make the first payment - this is the deposit!"

Everyone listened attentively, and since they decided to enter this industry, it was extremely important to understand the process, and at the same time, they were very puzzled, eight million dollars is not enough? How much does a game really cost?

Qin Yuanfeng stood up and walked casually, "The margin, which is generally one-tenth of the project." ”

"Then, since we chose to take sides, we had to buy each other's kits." He continued, "The toolkit, which is the software for the corresponding platform, is very small, but very expensive, and the price of an Fc toolkit is now about one million dollars. As the performance of the host becomes more and more excellent, its price will become more and more expensive, which is a bottomless pit, and it is also the reason why first-party platform providers dare to throw out high-priced copyrights, because they can get some of it back. ”

"Can we choose not to buy it?" Gao Yuan suddenly asked, "Let's make a game casually, wouldn't it be good if the one that bids high and sells it to which one?" ”

Qin Yuanfeng smiled and shook his head, "No, first, you can't stand in line in this era." Once you don't take sides, the first party will doubt your loyalty, so your game will not get the best promotion, which is very bad for the brand, and the other ......"

He glanced at everyone, "Who has the confidence to fool around under the hands of people like Yamauchi Pu and Hayao Nakayama?" I immediately made him vice president. ”

No one dared to say yes.

"Second, if you don't take sides, Sega can't give you real technical support. A console, if you can't eat up its performance, your game will be compromised. Often, a flaw that you thought was inconsequential was enough to ruin the game. ”

"The most important thing is that this unpacking is a tool to understand the performance of the host, and it is impossible for us not to buy it. It's impossible not to pay for this million dollars. Because there are only Nintendo and Sega in this world. Nintendo never refunds the security deposit. Who do you think I choose? ”

No one spoke, all of them were software people, the Daimyo of the Iron and Blood Emperor Lao Yamauchi, who was resounding all over the world at this moment. Everyone has heard a little about his tough methods.

"This is the second money. Counting up, it's close to two million dollars. Qin Yuanfeng sighed: "Do you think it's more than eight million? After deducting various tax rates, we have a little more than four million, deducting two million. And two million. ”

"That's a lot...... Zhong Han also interjected with interest.

"Quite a few?" Qin Yuanfeng said with a smile, "An electronic entertainment company that launches a game in a year? ”

"A normal electronic entertainment company has at least four or five games a year. Nintendo's contract for new starters, their contracts are nailed, no more than four per year, unless you rise to the level of Konami, Namco. But Sega doesn't have this restriction, which is one of the reasons why I chose Sega. ”

He didn't go on, everyone understood that when the game is open, there is no guarantee which one is popular, maybe the red one, and the others will lose, which is the simple reason why eggs can't be put in one basket.

In other words, a game company, with an annual cost of tens of millions of dollars, is divided into several projects, and if one is popular, it can almost return to its original cost. And that's not even counting the cost of post-promotion!

Although Sega will pay for publicity, won't its own company advertise?

Propaganda throughout Japan, all over the world, without a few million dollars to take down? It's still a small idea.

"Shhh......hh......h

"It's not just less, it's not enough at all." Qin Yuanfeng said lightly: "This is just a small expense. ”

"Is this still small?" Zhou Yujian finally couldn't help but speak: "This is already very big." ”

"It's really small." Qin Yuanfeng said with a smile: "I haven't mentioned the biggest amount of money at the beginning of the game, and that is copyright!" ”

"A new company, a new game, how to make a name for yourself, adapt an existing famous comic, a game is the best way. Then the question arises. ”

"Now the red manga, Dragon Ball, Saint Seiya, etc., Shueisha starts at more than fifteen million dollars. Famous games, none of which are under fifteen million. We simply can't afford to buy the rights to any of the famous books! Everybody. He glanced at everyone, "Do you still think it's more than eight million?" Still feel like you can drag your feet? ”

"Every minute you procrastinate is burning the life of the company!"

"If we don't open the next big red project, our company won't even be able to drag on for half a year!" He said solemnly, "I'll tell you another number, Sega, Nintendo's game consoles, none of them are less than five or six billion dollars!" ”

"It's just an eight-bit machine!"

"Our eight million, it's not enough to throw them in and stuff them between their teeth!"

No one spoke anymore. There was a cautious look on everyone's face.

No one expected that a company that seemed to be extremely beautiful would face such a big danger.

I didn't expect that the electronic entertainment industry turned out to be a bottomless pit. No amount of money is enough to spend!

Qin Yuanfeng looked at everyone's expressions with satisfaction, he was afraid that these people would have some slack mentality because of the company's funds.

He knows very well that this is not a bottomless pit, this is a black hole!

Now, his funds can only be played by a third party to open and enter the console war?

I'm afraid that Lao Yamauchi, Norio Oga, Hayakuo Nakayama and others will laugh off their big teeth.

Other people's publicity expenses for a day are more than this figure.

Without accumulating hundreds of millions of dollars in cash reserves, he simply did not dare and could not rush in.

Otherwise, the consequence will be to be played to death by Nintendo and Sony, who are sitting on tens of billions of assets.
