Chapter 1159 - New Game "Real Estate Agent Simulator"!

Pei Qian fell silent.

Sounds so reliable!

Now that Chi Xing Studio has become an instant hit in the VR field, it is indeed a pretty safe decision to continue to cultivate the VR field and change the game content and develop a new VR game according to the operating standards established in Animal Island.

After the game is made, with the fame of Chi Xing Studio and Tengda, there is a great possibility of making money.

Seeing that Mr. Pei fell into silence, Cai Jiadong was a little lost.

Sure enough, his idea is still too simple, and it is far from the standard answer in Mr. Pei's heart.

Lin Wan took over the conversation: "Lao Cai's choice is indeed the most reasonable choice under normal thinking. ”

"However, I think there are some risks associated with this choice."

"I chatted with Lao Song, the product manager of VR glasses, and he said that Doubt VR glasses have used all the currently available VR glasses technology, and it is a comprehensive product, and it is not optimistic to estimate that in the next two or three years, the form of VR glasses products may not change much."

"What I'm worried about is that once the development of VR glasses products stagnates, the VR industry will definitely cool down quickly, and when we spend a lot of money on the development of games, it may be difficult to recover the cost because the market is not large enough."

"So, my idea is, don't put your eggs in one basket."

"You can alternate the development of regular games and VR games, or make dual versions at the beginning of the project."

"In this way, even if the VR industry shrinks sharply in the future, Chi Xing Studio can continue to make traditional games and still live well."

Pei Qian continued to be silent.

Sound...... It makes sense!

Lin Wan's plan is more solid and secure.

According to her method, Chi Xing Studio can not only enjoy the dividends of VR games, but also use the experience and advantages of developing traditional games before, avoid risks, and make money steadily.

This special meow, no matter how you choose, it seems that you will make money......

However, Lin Wan still provided a very useful information, that is, the VR industry has no technical reserves, and it is likely to fall into stagnation or even shrinkage in the future.

This is completely consistent with the state of the VR industry in Pei Qian's memory.

Due to technical reasons, the VR craze will only last for a short period of time, and then it will cool down sharply, and the "VR game era" that many people are looking forward to will end before it has even begun.

Therefore, the plan of these two people must not work, and they have to think of a plan that loses money and loses ruthlessly.

Continue to spend huge sums of money on VR games, and you can't develop VR games that seem to have a high chance of success!

As Cai Jiadong said, developing a 3A FPS game is absolutely not good, the probability of success is too high.

Pei Qian summed it up that the success of "Animal Island" is mainly because this idea is not outrageous enough.

Before he decided to do the project "Animal Island", mainly during the meeting, he was in a hurry, and after negating several directions such as realistic FPS and cinematic games, he inexplicably finalized the direction of cartoon style and casual games.

Then it was pieced together, and after many people's brain supplements, "Animal Island" was born.

Looking back at the game "Animal Island" now, Pei Qian finds that it is obviously too reliable.

How could he have allowed Chi Xing Studio to develop such a reliable game in the first place?

It's no wonder that it failed so badly.

Therefore, Pei Qian feels that the reason why VR games did not fail is mainly because he was lazy at the beginning and did not think outrageously enough.

This time, I put forward a particularly outrageous VR game idea, invested a lot of money, and coupled with the general trend of the VR industry gradually cooling down in the future, I will definitely lose money!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian coughed lightly twice and said, "You two are quite right. ”

"But ......"

"Obviously, it still doesn't fit my previous definition of the word 'late'."

"Think about it, what did you say before you decided to make a VR game?"

Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong looked at each other.

Cai Jiadong said: "I remember. At that time, everyone said that they wanted to make mobile games, and Mr. Pei, you said that late travel means making bold assumptions, carefully verifying, and taking a long-term view when establishing goals. Although the road has to be taken step by step, but only caring about the feet and not having foresight, there will still be detours. ”

"There is also the courage to break through in order to make progress, and none of the previous projects have been successful because of 'seeking stability'."

"Do you mean...... Mr. Pei, do you think my current thinking is still too stable? ”

Pei Qian nodded, the class representative summed it up well, he is a good seedling.

Cai Jiadong was thoughtful.

"It does ......"

"When Chi Xing Studio was just starting out, VR games had not yet appeared, and making a game like Animal Island was already a risky act."

"But now that the Doubt VR glasses have been successful, it's not a risk to make a regular VR game step by step."

Lin Wan thought for a while and said, "Then, Mr. Pei, what do you mean that we should continue to increase investment in VR games, and at the same time make a game that is very novel and has never been done before?" ”

Pei Qian nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, that's what it means!" ”

"Don't be afraid of failure, if you're afraid of failure, you'll never be able to achieve real success."

The implication is that if you eat your old books and keep making money, then how can I withstand it?

There must be a lot of adventure and failure, and this huge family can be ruined.

Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong each nodded, and they both had a sudden expression on their faces.

Sure enough, Mr. Pei's way of looking at the problem is still so unique, so to the point!

It's just that Mr. Pei has any new ideas this time?

Pei Qian coughed lightly twice and said, "This time, my idea is to make a game with a realistic theme. ”

"The game will be set in Jingzhou, with realistic painting style, fine modeling, and real-life motion capture, and the investment must be huge!"

And the identity of the characters in the game ...... In reality, it is a more annoying and boring type of profession. ”

Putting the most annoying profession in reality into the game and letting players bring it into the game should make players run away disgusting, right?

It's a realistic theme again, and it's boring to think about.

As for what is this profession......

There are many kinds, and Pei Qian didn't think too much about it.

He looked at Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong, obviously he had to count on them to make up for it at this time.

Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong looked at each other, and they didn't guess what the profession Mr. Pei was going to talk about at the first time.

Cai Jiadong was silent for a while, and said tentatively: "Uh...... Real estate agent? ”

Pei Qian immediately slapped the table: "That's right, that's it!" ”

Real estate agency, that's definitely a rather annoying industry.

Of course, it is not about the majority of real estate agents, but the nature of the job, and the nature of most real estate agencies, determines that this job is not easy to do.

There are other ways, and many people will not choose to do this business.

Making this a game, thinking about it with your feet, feels very boring and dissuades players.

The basic gameplay of the game is nothing more than constantly taking customers to see the house, selling the house, and clicking on the dialogue options on the screen, and the gameplay has no depth at all.

Such a boring game, with fine modeling and real-life motion capture, can be said to be quite wasteful.

There will also be a lot of useless dialogue and text in the game, all of which are voiced by real people, which is another waste of money.

With such an outrageous game, it shouldn't be possible to make money, right?

In fact, Pei Qian didn't think about what kind of professional simulator he wanted to do at first, but when he heard Cai Jiadong say this, he suddenly felt that the real estate agent was quite suitable.

That's it!

Pei Qian stood up and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, he added: "Of course, this is just a little idea of mine that is not very mature, if you think it is not appropriate, you can do something else." ”

"Also, we must be fully prepared before the project is developed, and it will start next month at the earliest."

Nominally, Tengda Group and Chi Xing Studio are only in an investment relationship, and Pei Qian cannot "order" Chi Xing Studio to develop a certain game.

But Pei Qian believes that Lin Wan will definitely do it.

……

After sending off Mr. Pei, Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong went from one confusion to another.

Mr. Pei pointed them in the direction, but why does it sound a little unreliable?

Cai Jiadong said: "Mr. Lin, according to what Mr. Pei said, ......"

"A game with a real estate agent as the protagonist, it can only be a 'real estate agent simulator'......"

"But what's there to simulate here?"

"The work of a real estate agent is very boring, every day is nothing more than taking clients to see houses, posting on the Internet, looking for properties, etc."

"In reality, many people are not happy to do this job, let alone make a game?"

Lin Wan's expression was solemn and fell into deep thought.

"Since Mr. Pei said that he can do it, there must be enough gameplay to hold it up."

"The game must be based on reality and higher than reality."

"We can actually design it like this: the protagonist starts out as a rookie real estate agent who rents a house, and his job is to show customers the house, introduce the house to the customer, and make money with a commission. But as the game progresses, he can also open his own company and build his own brand. ”

"In the early days, the protagonist mainly looked at the house, and different guests had different preferences, whether they wanted to truthfully say the shortcomings of the house or deceive the customers, they would bear the corresponding consequences."

"After the protagonist is promoted to store manager, he can have a certain degree of autonomy to change the layout and structure of the house and renovate some old houses to attract more customers and earn the difference in rent."

After that, after the protagonist builds his own brand, he can also customize furniture with furniture manufacturers and deeply transform the house according to his favorite style. You can also save money to buy your own house, rest in your own house, and do some simple entertainment. ”

"In this way, the gameplay of the game is still very rich, it can be a real estate agent simulator, judging the shortcomings of the house, communicating with customers to promote orders, or it can be a decoration simulator, planning the layout and decoration style in the room, and the system will give a score."

"We can even work with sloth apartments and furniture manufacturers that meet the standards to link up in the game."

"From a VR perspective, players can clearly see the structure and layout of a house, which will also be very helpful for many people who need to buy or rent a house in real life."
