"Hey, senior, are you Chinese? What does a few mean? Cui Minxi asked with some curiosity.

Zheng Xiuheng's throat rolled as if he was about to vomit blood, and finally held back and replied: "It's weird, saying that your thinking is too peculiar, okay, no matter how many you are, I came to you because I want your help!" ”

"Isn't it a meal?"

"Do you want to eat a pen?"

Zheng Xiuheng asked with a cold face, this bastard is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, but he can be so persistent for what he likes, but he still thinks about his family, Zheng Xiuheng has to say his admiration.

Choi Min-hee smiled awkwardly, thinking of Zheng Xiuheng's fountain pen that ran through the wooden table, his attitude instantly improved a lot.

In fact, Cui Minxi was surprised that Zheng Xiuheng contacted him, and he was even more surprised that he actually asked him for help, but for Zheng Xiuheng, a senior, Cui Minxi still has a very good impression, he is a very interesting person, and it should be very good to make friends with such a person.

Although Cui Minxi's true mood is not what it appears on the outside, there is no really decadent Cheng Dù, and the corrupt and outrageous life during this period of time also seems a little boring, except for secretly holding the computer to carry out various designs and helping friends complete some small projects, there is really nothing to do.

In fact, what makes Cui Minxi the most heartbroken and angry is that his father is simply for his own face, if at first he thought that his father was indeed for his own good.

But when he came home last time and carefully explained about the development and current situation of the game industry, as well as his own abilities and future plans, my father still didn't give in. finally made Choi Min-hee understand the reason, it turned out that he didn't care about his future at all.

At present, South Korea has been recognized as one of the most developed countries in the world in the online game industry, and has become the second largest online game country in the world after the United States. In just a few years, the Korean gaming industry quickly completed a multi-level transition. There is only one means to rely on - online games. The key factor that promotes the use of this "magic weapon" to achieve the goal is the role of the government, which has done some very practical cultivation work.

In addition, as early as 99, new regulations were added, that is, the government stipulated that high-tech talents engaged in the game industry were exempted from military service for two years, which greatly encouraged many young Korean men to join the game industry, to put it bluntly, the government is encouraging more young people to join the industry, you must know that the basic people who can be exempted from military service in South Korea are Olympic champions, world champions, etc., or married. Three or four people in the family or parents who are paralyzed and sick, and only one person supports the family can be exempted from military service.

It can be seen that a job in game development is not a bad career in Korea, on the contrary, it is not a low status.

So Choi Min-hee's attitude towards his father. Basically dead, anyway, his thoughts are only this year, if his parents still have that attitude, then next year will have to leave that home anyway. Although he is still very young. But that doesn't mean you can waste your life at will.

"Senior, just say something, although I'm half-disabled now, it's still okay to do some physical work with this body, do you need me to do some work on my behalf? During this time, I watched the show several times before my predecessors, and I heard that I was making a movie? ”

Zheng Xiuheng knows very well that this guy is not the kind of character who is settled, and he belongs to the kind with a strong subjective consciousness and is difficult to be moved by external forces. It's been a few months since I left MBC, so it's not the same that I'm still fighting against my family.

But Zheng Xiuheng didn't want to solve his family affairs. The reason for looking for Choi Min-hee is that he needs help, of course, not to fight, but ......

"I'd like to ask you to help me develop a game!"

"Haha, you've found the right person to develop a game, don't brag about anything else, but technical workers, although I'm ...... Wait, I think I heard you ask me to help you develop a game? Cui Minxi came back to his senses and opened his mouth wide, his eyes were round and he asked in amazement, he had thought about a lot of reasons why Zheng Xiuheng was looking for him, but he never thought that he was asked to develop a game.

Zheng Xiuheng ignored his surprise, but said very seriously: "I don't know much about the game development process, but it shouldn't be difficult to think about, I just want to make a music game of the type of O2JAM (Jin Band), but it's not that it's the same as O2JAM, it's just a stand-alone game." ”

"In addition, the main thing is to tell a story through guò games, and the song is about twenty songs, and I may not be able to help with the rest. But I can provide the design of the rhythm buttons of all the songs, you don't have to worry about this work, that's probably what I said, if you want to make it, how much time and money will it take? ”

o2jam is an MMOMPG game developed by O2Media in South Korea. It is a casual music game based on MP3 music, which was open beta in June 2003 in South Korea, and was launched in public beta on March 04, 2005 after being represented in China, and is a benchmark music game in South Korea.

"Zheng Xiuheng senior...... Are you sure it's not a joke? Cui Minxi was very surprised when he heard Zheng Xiuheng say in more detail, this really didn't seem like a joke, but this surprised Cui Minxi even more.

"Do you think I'm an idler?" Zheng Xiuheng replied sincerely, he really didn't have the slightest idea of joking.

Cui Minxi frowned, put away his playful look, and asked very seriously: "According to what you said, you are going to develop a stand-alone game, right?" ”

Zheng Xiuheng nodded.

Cui Minxi thought for a while and replied seriously: "Tell you the truth, senior, although according to what you said, except for labor costs, it basically doesn't cost much!" ”

"But, according to what you've described, no one will play this kind of game when it's developed, and O2JAM is now a very iconic music game, and it can even be crowned number one, like the hyped dance of the previous two years. It didn't take long for the group to go on the line.,As far as music games are concerned.,There are basically few companies on the PC to develop it.,Let alone a stand-alone game.,If the predecessors really want to do it.,You can only lose money...... Maybe wait two years to have a chance to succeed! ”

Zheng Xiuheng did not explain his purpose, but asked with some curiosity: "Why do you have a chance to succeed in two years?" ”

Cui Minxi smiled: "Now there is a lot of progress in science and technology. For example, Nokia's Symbian system is now a standout, but it still has a lot of limitations for mobile game developers, and Google acquired Andy. Rubin and others in 05 to create an Android company. Android is also a mobile phone operating system, this project is estimated to be several years old, during this time in some technology development forums to see the news is that Google is actively contacting a number of manufacturers, operators, software developers, etc., ready to form a consortium, to develop and improve this system, I don't know what the future holds. But technology is always advancing! ”

"In two or three years, if smartphones have significantly improved performance due to the new operating system, it will inevitably become a new battleground for many game companies. In fact, in South Korea today, many small companies that have been squeezed by large companies have begun to transform, just like Com2us, which I joined before, and has been focusing on the research and development of JAVE mobile games. So talk about technological progress. If you can play large-scale 3D games smoothly on ordinary mobile phones, instead of the type of dedicated machine development or pseudo-3D. ”

"At that time, the current game market is bound to change, and Com2us is ready to start to enter the smartphone market now, so I said that if such a game is developed in the future, it is very likely to be successful when it is launched on mobile phones, but it is really difficult to make money on PC, at least in South Korea!"

Zheng Xiuheng's first feeling after listening to it was that he felt 'it seems to be very powerful'.

"I'm not trying to make money. It's just that there are some things you want to do, so let's talk about how much time it would take to develop a game like the one I'm talking about. Zheng Xiuheng didn't pay much attention to Choi Min-hee's words. After all, it's not your main battlefield, just listen to it.

"Well, if you really want to do it, maybe one to three months, of course, maybe half a year!" Choi Min-hee replied helplessly, it didn't seem that he was very interested.

Zheng Xiuheng was still confused: "What is this statement?" ”

Cui Minxi explained: "It's very simple, depending on the number of people and professionalism of the development team, first of all, let's not talk about what your story is, and we don't care about the length of it, just talk about the background illustrations, if it has been designed, or experienced artists, this can save a lot of time, and secondly, the twenty or so tunes you said, if you directly use the existing music, as well as your rhythm and keys have been designed, then it is naturally something that can be completed quickly, but if not, and you have to do original music, That's a long time! ”

"What about the time spent developing? For example, in the program, in the engine? ”

Cui Minxi chuckled like a professional at this time: "Senior, in fact, this is the simplest link, first of all, as long as you don't want any 3D picture, then Cocos can basically meet your requirements, in addition, o2jam is too iconic, and even relying on o2jam's editing program network can be found at any time, so the length of development time depends on manpower and professional process, if I use the standard team I work in Com2us, in the case of all the materials are complete, I can get it for you in less than half a month. ”

"Although I am not optimistic about my predecessors joining the game industry, listening to what my predecessors say, it seems that they want to tell a story, can you tell me? You should know, although I am full of infinite yearning for making a game, but I don't like many games now, except for some large teams with pioneering strength, many companies are following the trend, because of government support and promotion, so they are still doing well, but the kind of boring thing in two hours, I hate it very much, so I'm curious, what kind of story do my predecessors want to tell? ”

Cui Minxi's words are very straightforward, but his attitude is very sincere, Zheng Xiuheng can also see it, when it comes to what he likes, this guy really doesn't have a hippie smile, and sure enough, everyone's attitude towards what he likes will become sincere.

"There is only one general story, the inspiration comes from a dream, and the story is taken from reality, first of all, I can sue you, but you have to help after listening!"

"Hey, hey, senior, don't you want to be so shameless, don't you just listen to a story? Do you want such a big price? Or I wouldn't have listened! ”

"Dang!"

Zheng Xiuheng's spoon suddenly knocked on the coffee cup, and the sound was very pleasant...... (To be continued......)
