There is at least a three-storey basketball hall converted into a basketball court, like entering a basketball court open-air bar, surrounded by Jordan's private collection, and open a Jordan franchise store authorized by Nike, the huge video wall loops Jordan's game video, the environment is cool, the atmosphere is strong, this qiē makes Yang Yun envious, when to go back to Shanghai, get a Yao restaurant!

A few people sit in a private private room, and you can see the lively scene outside through the special glass curtain wall, but you can't see the situation of the people inside from the outside, which is lively and hidden, so you don't have to worry about someone peeping and watching.

Yang Yun tasted and enjoyed the signature dish "Juanita's Macaroni and Cheese" from Jordan's wife, and said with a smile: "You don't need to be so restrained, please feel free!" ”

The Big Four are indeed a little unable to let go, eating the staple food in front of them as carefully as possible, not to mention chatting and gossiping, this is the feeling of Xiao Hanging and the billionaire eating at the same table, each of them is excited, nervous, and focused on Yang Yun, paying attention to his every move.

"Marcos, now you're the head of Vulture Studios, right?" Yang Yun wiped his mouth and asked casually.

Marcos put down the knife and fork and nodded solemnly: "Yes Yang, there are only 15 people in our studio, and the scale is very small. Although I am the professed CEO, I am responsible for a lot of programming in my spare time. ”

Yang Yun smiled and said, "Yes, I hope you can continue to continue." Six years ago, I was a porter in an electronics factory, dealing with boxes of semiconductor components every day, and then I worked as a programmer. Write assemblers, do MIDI music, and design game scripts. I've done every job in the game-making process. ”

Now everyone has a common topic, it turns out that billionaires also start working hard as porters, what reason do they have to be frustrated?

The four giants are all programmers, planners, and sound engineers, and after being driven by Yang Yun, they have opened the chatterbox. It was a lot of fun.

That's what kind of effect is it, talking about business in a relaxed atmosphere often has the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort......

Yang Yun smiled and chatted with these people. After gaining their initial trust, he suddenly mentioned the content of the ongoing project at Vulture Studios: "I have a reluctant request, if you can, can you talk about Vulture's current game project?" ”

It's coming, it's coming! The hearts of the four increased rapidly. That's what they guessed when they got the invitation call in the hotel.

Yang Yun's invitation will definitely not be as simple as a dinner invitation. He'll be sure to mention the vulture's work, perhaps to see if they're worth investing in and buying, and it's definitely an impromptu interview!

Unreservedly and discussingly, this is the coping method decided by the four of them, they don't want to miss this opportunity, not everyone is qualified to eat with billionaires, and the other party takes the initiative to invite and pay!

"Our most important task right now is to develop an SS version of Justice League for SunSoft. The game is nearing completion and will be ready for use in three weeks. Marcos said.

SunSoft。 "Justice League", these two names, Yang Yun is not too impressed, there are too many games on the SS platform, and there are even more such unknown small companies.

Yang Yun smiled: "What about three weeks later?" Do you have any new outsourcing orders? ”

Marcos said embarrassedly, "Not yet...... We came to this exhibition to look for projects. You know, there are a lot more opportunities at the fair, and you can learn the best design ideas. ”

Yang Yun agreed: "So Bill came to us to learn the Tomb Raider game?" ”

Everyone let out a good-natured laugh, Yang Yun is definitely not stingy, dare to release it for his peers and players to experience it up close, he is not afraid that they will plagiarize his ideas.

Programmers from small companies like Vulture will basically visit the entire booth of the exhibition and try out everyone's games, what is expected to be released by each game company next year, analyze the game trends next year, and also see the technological progress of competitors, evaluate various UI interfaces, and experience gameplay, which is the best opportunity to understand trends and learn from themselves.

Marcos sighed and said, "It's true, after observing many of our peers, we found that our technology is really ugly, and we are ashamed of ourselves. For example, ID's Doom2 and Silicon&Synapse's Justice League, hell, they all developed a PC version for EA! ”

Speaking of which, Vulture Studios really doesn't have any core technical capabilities, all they have is a game idea that hasn't been realized yet, or even turned into a plan.

For the game "Justice League", Yang Yun can only say that it is too coincidental.

SunSoft hired two studios to do the port, Vulture did the SS platform port, which has Diablo's idea, and Silicon they did the SFC platform port, ready to do Warcraft.

was so intervened by him, and the good Blizzard was split into two, each forced to a dead end.

You're welcome, take them! After feeling their fiery eyes, Yang Yun laughed: "After Vulture Studios finishes "Justice League", how about you develop an SS platform game for me?" ”

YES！

The four of them shouted this almost at the same time in their hearts, they had been waiting for this sentence for too long!

But the most important thing is, how to cooperate? A project that Longteng outsources to them? Or did Longteng give them a sum of money and buy it out directly? Or is it just a promise?

Marcos asked, "I wonder what we can do for the Dragon?" ”

Yang Yun smiled and said, "I don't believe that you vultures are not prepared, and if there is no new project in three weeks, you will stop and do nothing?" I want to know your new ideas, new ideas, and see if it's worth my investment. After all, there are a lot of companies with more powerful technical reserves than Vulture Studios, aren't they? ”

The four of them fell silent and looked at each other, and they discussed the situation, with Marcos and Bill agreeing to sue Yang Yun for the new game they were protecting, while Eric and David objected, after all, it was rumored that Dragon's favorite thing to do was to copy someone else's idea.

Yang Yun knew it, but he didn't say anything, he didn't prompt, he drank coffee slowly, leaned comfortably on the back of the chair, and admired the Jordan dunk shot on the glass façade.

There are some things, it is best to let them break through the knot by themselves, not to mention, Yang Yun is ready to make a big change to this game!

Finally, Marcos persuaded his younger brother Eric, gritted his teeth, looked at Yang Yun and said, "We have a great game idea, but due to financial pressure, we can't realize it." If Longteng thinks it is possible, we hope to use this idea as start-up capital to obtain a commercial loan from Longteng, if we can apply for support funds, it is the best! ”

No, Diablo can't let you go for nothing, make commercial loans, support funds, and wait for it to sell well, and then miss it?

Yang Yun put down the coffee and said solemnly: "Don't be so troublesome, I will pay a settlement fee of 2 million US dollars, are the four of you willing to disband the vulture studio and go to China to work for me?" When I get to Shanghai, China, I will give each of you a four-and-a-half house, give you a minimum annual salary of $120,000 after taxes, and hand over the sequel to you for the Warcraft series. Well, I've even figured out the name of the group for you, it's called Blizzard! ”

Marcos and his party were stunned, what kind of rhythm is this? The settling-in allowance of 2 million US dollars, 500,000 yuan per person, but to work in China, although it is a big city like Shanghai, China, no one knows what the outcome will be in the future.

The minimum annual salary after tax is $120,000, which is already a very high salary in the United States, and the average IT engineer cannot reach the annual salary of $120,000 before taxes, and the tax is as high as 40%, and there is less than $80,000 left in hand.

None of the four of them are married, and they do not have the traditional Chinese idea of "parents are not far away", under the instigation and temptation of Yang Yun, the four of them decided on the spot that after completing the project at hand, they would disband the vulture studio and collectively report to the North American branch of Longteng to go to China!

Sending the Big Four to China, settling in the Shanghai Longteng R&D Center, and hanging the Blizzard nameplate is the business strategy that Yang Yun considers.

Dark, Warcraft, Interstellar, these real-history Blizzard games, will be handed over to the Big Four to operate, make a base camp in Shanghai, carry forward the real-time strategy game to the world, and make the world's largest e-sports city in the future, and become a holy place in the hearts of e-sports fans!

The headquarters of Longteng in Beijing is the location of the Long-Sports brand, and all sports games and 3D shooting games will be arranged in Beijing, echoing Shanghai from afar, which is more from the brand and positive image.

War games, World War II, World War, Nuclear Submarine Wars, Dune Wars and other games that are not suitable for distribution in China will be handed over to the European branch system, which will be responsible for the former Russian 1C game department.

As for the branches in the United States and Japan, they have the most miscellaneous business, they catch all kinds of games, they grab everything, and they are responsible for competing with behemoths such as EA and Sony, and they are the most fierce.

In addition, the R&D centers in Hong Kong and Taiwan make casual games, domestic RPGs, animations, movies, and games, all of which are aimed at Asian people, and are the main force in promoting and maintaining Chinese culture in games.

After reaching a preliminary cooperation intention, Marcos asked a little strangely: "Mr. Yang, I didn't seem to have said the idea of our new game just now, right?" It's called 'Diablo', which means ghost, and I ......."

Yang Yun interrupted him, and asked with a smile, "Do you know what my car in Los Angeles is?" Lamborghini-Diablo！ I don't think a game with the same name as a Lamborghini will disappoint me, right? Don't be surprised, boys, Diablo Games, I'll be in for it myself, and let's make it a classic game that will last around the world! (To be continued......)
