Chapter 3: A New Beginning
"Finally, I believe you, there are still more than 400,000 in the card, your previous salary and the money from "Monster Dungeon", as well as all my own savings, were originally intended to be the down payment for our new house in the future, if you lose it this time, then the down payment on our house will be gone."
Wang Yaliang, who pushed open the door, walked in front of Yang Chen, shook his lips and took out an ICBC savings card from his pocket.
Looking at the bank card stuffed into his hand, Yang Chen's mouth opened for a long time without saying a word.
"First of all, I don't give you this money for nothing, it's an investment I made, and I want to be the big boss of the new company; If you fail in your business, you'll have to pay me for yourself. Wang Yaliang pounced on Yang Chen's body, pinched each other's faces with both hands, and smiled.
The card in his hand was obviously very light, but Yang Chen felt very heavy, very heavy.
After half a ring, Yang Chen looked at the woman lying on top of him like a koala, and suddenly smiled: "Okay, Mr. Wang!" β
In my last life, I must have been a good person!
"So, next...... Comrade Yang, can you talk to your Mr. Wang, where did you get the money to buy cigarettes? β

"It's a bit unbearable in Shanghai, let's go back to my hometown for the time being."
They only have more than 400,000 start-up capital, Yang Chen is not a novice, this industry has been in this industry for several years, plus he has served as the main planner of the game twice, Yang Chen knows what is needed for the development of a game.
More than 400,000 yuan, if you continue to be in Shanghai, the cost of living alone will consume a large part of the funds.
In addition, the necessary funds such as office space and staff salaries are a large part of the expenditure.
And with the dream memory in his head, Yang Chen has already decided what to do with the first game.
"Listen to you, I'll go wherever you go anyway." Stretching his waist without the image of a lady, leaning back on the sofa and leaning back, Wang Yaliang looked at Yang Chen with wide eyes and said with a serious face.
"But when it comes to making games, it's only the two of us who have a big problem." Thinking of something, Wang Yaliang said with a little distress.
When Wang Yaliang was in college, he didn't study anything related to games, but a major in ideological and political education, and after graduating from college, he entered the company under Yang Chen's back door and worked as an administrative worker.
She's pretty good at playing games, but if she makes games, even if her boyfriend is a game producer, she's all about it.
"It's not a big problem, this time I'm going to outsource most of the content, I'm going to do the main stats, level design, and art style, and I'll leave the programming to the contractors." Yang Chen explained to Wang Yaliang, although he knew that most of this girl didn't understand what these things were.
In general indie game development, there are basically only two or three people, and these two or three people include programming, values, level design, creativity, copywriting, music, art, and so on.
Therefore, the development cycle of an indie game will be longer than that of a large game.
For example, if all of them are outsourced, the production cycle of a game is 1 month, and it takes 300,000 RMB.
The small team of only three people came by themselves, and the production cycle was 1 year, but the cost was only 100,000 RMB.
So many indie game teams will choose the latter option, and the previous Yang Chen used this method, although this method saves costs, many uncontrollable things will happen in a long production cycle.
For example, if you want to develop a game that has already been launched in the same genre, for example, if you are developing an RPG game, and the trend of RPG games has passed during this period of time, these are very unfavorable and unstable factors.
So Yang Chen decided to take the first plan this time, because he needed to succeed quickly, and at the same time, those games in his memory gave Yang Chen some confidence to succeed.
Even if it's not the same world, but a successful game is a successful game, and it is impossible to say that a person who doesn't understand anything can be reborn once and become the richest man in the world without learning and recharging.
With the help of something, it is not very difficult to become a rich man, but it is obviously impossible to really become the richest man.
"Hmm...... Well. β
Yang Chen looked at Wang Yaliang, who pretended to understand and nodded with a sudden expression, and couldn't help but smile.
Three days later, from Shanghai to Jiangshi.
A two-bedroom and one-hall house is simply decorated, with a monthly rent of 900 yuan, and a 60-square-meter small three-bedroom pure rough house with a monthly rent of 700 yuan, and the water and electricity bills are at your own expense.
Three high-end computers, as well as corresponding desks, office chairs and water dispensers, more than 400,000 yuan of funds have been spent.
It's mainly for rent prepayment, and as for the computer, it's still used when developing "Monster Dungeon".
"This is my little coffer, I can't fail!" Wang Yaliang's face was flushed, he panted and put his luggage away, turned around and lay on the bed, looking at Yang Chen, who was installing the router next to him, and said.
Hearing Wang Yaliang's words, Yang Chen, who had installed the router, couldn't help laughing: "It's too late to regret it now, right?" β
"Hmph, what do you regret, 400,000 yuan to buy you for a lifetime, I made a lot of money." The corners of Wang Yaliang's mouth curled slightly, snorted lightly, and then asked a little worriedly, "What should we do next?" Do you want to go to the talent market to recruit externally? β
She didn't have any experience at all of these, she gave all the money to Yang Chen, and then went from Shanghai to her hometown, purely believing in Yang Chen, but now that she calmed down, she felt a little too much, as if her head was hot and then she decided to start a business.
Even though she had returned to her hometown, she didn't dare to tell her parents.
"It's useless to go to the talent market, there are no real talents in themselves, and those who have the ability will not choose to join us." Yang Chen shook his head and said.
Although he really wanted to form a team, Yang Chen also had to admit that he really didn't have the ability to set it up now.
Smashed with money? Unrealistic, because what he lacks most now is money.
Flickers? What's even more unrealistic, he has a criminal record; If Dungeons of Monsters succeeds, it's a fool, but the key is that it fails.
"Find a studio OEM, including UI, art, program, all these are outsourced, the main design, values, cards, copywriting are up to me." Yang Chen had almost already thought about it.
There are more than 400,000 funds left, and this is completely sufficient.
Of course he wouldn't dare say that before, but with the memory of the dream, everything in the game is clearly remembered in his mind, and the values are still level designed, and although it is a bit complicated to reverse the deduction, it is not difficult.
In the same way, just copy the UI, art, and copywriting by yourself, and then change some according to the actual situation.
