"To sell or not to sell?" Ye Shenxi sent out such a sentence in the chat group.

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"Wow?"

In an instant, these four sentences popped up in the group, as if grabbing a red envelope.

However, these four sentences did not come from Murong, and this girl had not yet reacted to what she meant, and she was still in the process of comprehending it...... Instead, they came from Li Rong, Hua Yiming, Feng Juan and Ma Shengwei.

These people didn't know when they woke up, they didn't interject, they kept silently peeping at the screen, and then finally couldn't help bubbling.

It's just Lao Zhao, a middle-aged man who wants to come to the age of forty, who has experienced vicissitudes of life and ups and downs, and with the stability of life experience, he can see it lightly, and he can deal with anything he encounters calmly.

"Wow!"

Immediately afterwards, Lao Zhao also came to say this.

It turned out that it was just the elderly who typed slowly.

"Eh, Sister Li, you got up so early......" Ma Shengwei immediately typed again.

"You too, I go to bed early, my work and rest have always been healthy, I am old, I have to pay attention to maintenance, I can't compare with you young people." Li Rong replied.

Hua Yiming also said: "Yes, the air is good in the morning, and I am about to go to the playground to play basketball, sweat and take a shower, comfortable." ”

Feng Juan: "It's such a coincidence, everyone is up ......"

Lao Zhao actually posted an emoji very fashionably, just a picture, and then put on seven or eight different ORD artistic fonts: "Good morning, day, good mood, start with mine, greetings." ”

Each comma is a line break, the color is different, how fancy and dazzling how to come.

This group of people.

Ye Shenxi ignored them and directly initiated a private chat with Murong: "Is the copyright of this song in your hands, I want to buy this song." ”

waited for a while before waiting for Murong's response: "What did you buy it for?" ”

"I want to use this in the game, and it should be a good fit." Ye Shenxi didn't go around the bend and said directly.

"Is that the game you're going to get to the United States?"

"Yes, it's urgent."

"Then you can use it."

"Refreshing."

"Does the game use this genre? Isn't it supposed to be the kind of electronic sound effect? ”

With this girl's perception of the game, Ye Shenxi felt that it might not be clear for a while.

"I'm making a promotional video, you can understand that it's similar to a movie promotional video, when the time comes, I'll make it and send you a copy to see it."

"Okay, when?" Murong is also very interested, for the game's movie promo.

This Ye Shenxi pit himself a little, he just said casually, and he didn't plan to send it to anyone before E3 was officially released, if it was leaked to the Internet in advance, who could say for sure. Anyway, when the time comes, this promotional video will be put on the Internet after the E3 exhibition, and you can send the link directly to Murong at that time.

"It can be done today or tomorrow, but can I send it to you after the 13th?"

"Yes."

"Then I will find someone to contact you for the specific contract, on QQ or on the phone?"

"You can use it directly, you don't have to pay for it." Murong is also upright.

"This is the company's business, and the company has the company's rules and procedures."

"Okay, you don't have my phone, do you?"

"Nope."

“138****1231。”

"Do you have any requirements for the price?" Ye Shenxi shouldn't have asked this, mainly because he felt that this girl was not social, and she was also the master who was not short of money, so the gap between perception and market was relatively large, and when the people over there in Huangpu quoted at the market price, they would feel that it was better not to sell personal favors.

"Just go by the market price."

It seems that the worry is unnecessary.

Ye Shenxi asked again: "Do you still have such a song?" ”

"Yes, yes, but it doesn't necessarily fit your game, it can't always be so coincidental."

"Yes, then...... Can I ask if you've done an internship before? Or has your family arranged a place for you to go after graduation? ”

"It's arranged, but it's ...... I'm still thinking about it, though. Murong hesitated, but still said it, as if he felt that it was not appropriate to talk about his private affairs with a man who was still a stranger.

"Why?"

"I have classical music at home, so I got an orchestra, but I prefer to compose, and I also like some electronic synthesized sounds, which are just something newer and stranger."

That's just great.

"I understand your thoughts, so have you ever wanted to go to work for a company?"

"Of course I have considered it, I also have an offer from a film and television company in my hand, but I am still thinking about it." Murong said lightly, she naturally didn't worry about work.

"I wouldn't mind thinking about game companies again." Ye Shenxi felt like a girl who was abducted: "In fact, if you like to create, the space for play in the game field is not necessarily weaker than that in the film and television field, and it is ...... By the way, do you know the name of our company? ”

"I don't know, what's wrong, is it famous?"

It was indeed a bit difficult to communicate, Ye Shenxi could only say: "Yes, it's very famous." ”

"Didn't think about it."

Ye Shenxi's already brewed rhetoric was just about to spit out, but he suddenly held it back again.

“…… Do you want to go to the Internet to check our company first, the name is Qingyu Network. It is one of the top game companies in China, and also has a certain market share overseas, with a wide range of product audiences and a relatively deep foreign user base. "There are some things that Ye Shenxi really shouldn't say by himself, as if he is a pyramid scheme or a micro-business development offline, boasting about himself.

"I'll look it up sometime." I didn't pay much attention to it at first glance.

"Then can you wait a minute, I will come back to the capital to meet you after I return from the United States in mid-June. I know it may be a bit too much, but I don't think it's just a bit of an empty phrase to understand you, I think the reason why you like to create is because you're not content to borrow other people's work to express your thoughts, emotions, perceptions and attitudes. ”

"I'm the same kind of person as you, so I can really understand you and give you the environment you want. Music is your weapon, it's the carrier of your thoughts, and I don't think you care so much about whether it's expressed through movies and TV works or games. ”

"It's about watching, music is about listening, movies are about watching and listening, and games have another dimension besides watching and listening, and that's interacting with the world in the game. Players can change this game world, the protagonist will become what he wants to be, the world will be different because of his choices, and the characters in this world will have different fates because of different players. ”

"You chose film music composition and went to film and television schools instead of music schools, which shows that you prefer this multi-dimensional form of expression, whether it is the plot, the picture, or the music, they all collaborate for the same purpose, and tell the story more fully and fully in their collision."

"Why not give it a try?"

God is pitiful, Ye Shenxi hasn't typed so many words in text chat with someone for a long time.

In fact, he himself wasn't sure what Murong was thinking, anyway, he said it as much as he could, at least he thought it was right not to impress her from the aspects of salary, treatment and position, and it was estimated that those would not impress her.

He can only show that, you see, I value you very much, and at least I am willing to try to understand you.

I don't even go to class...... Take time to figure you out.

"I've found your company." The other side replied with such a sentence.

"How?"

Murong took another picture, which was a news about the herring fish network, which will participate in the E3 exhibition on June 13-15, US time, and announce the news of the mysterious new work.

"Is this mysterious new game the one you're working on now? To use this tune. ”

"Yes."

Murong was actually quite surprised, just when Ye Shenxi kept beeping, she actually checked more information.

I thought that at most he was handsome, but he was quite mature and stable, and he wouldn't desperately want to show his advantages like those little boys in school when he got along, so that beautiful girls would be familiar with him and praise him.

may also be a little smarter, others learn a year's things he can do in three months and understand more thoroughly than others, and inferences can be applied to practical work;

The family may still have a lot of money, and the wealthy family itself is not a derogatory term, but a kind of self-confidence in dealing with the world that he has developed in the process of growing up, so that he is very good at speaking and doing things. Needless to say, Hua Yiming's standard scholar role, let the director of a large company like Li Rong, and the boss of an advertising company like Lao Zhao, who has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, be willing to take the lead for him, even if he doesn't speak often, but as long as it is his suggestion, everyone will almost reflexively accept it and implement it.

Even if he sits in the corner and doesn't speak, it will affect the aura of this group of people when they communicate and the trend of the topic.

That's probably the best of it.

But I didn't expect to be the boss of such a big company?

He seems to be the same age as himself.

Qingyu Network, a game called "The Origin of Everything", which went public at the end of last year, sold more than $250 million...... There is no such box office movie in China, and when Murong saw this number, he felt that his three views had been impacted.

The company's games have a total of more than 15 million loyal players worldwide.

"You started this company yourself?"

"My girlfriend drove it."

"The last time you video chatted? Summer herring? ”

Murong remembered the last time he saw a plump young woman on his computer screen in the studio...... Belch......

It won't be a rich woman, she kind of wants to take back the praise she had given to Ye Shenxi in her heart before.

"That's our company's art director."

"Oh, you've really only been around for two years, huh?"

"What's there to fake this, I can't fake it, I can't wait to write a century-old store, the video game company handed down from the Song Dynasty sounds very powerful. How about it, do you want to think about it? Previously, our company's music and sound effects were outsourced, and if you come over, I will set up a department specifically for you, and you have the final say. ”

Ye Shenxi remembered a little when he met Xia Qingyu two years ago, and Xia Qingyu said the same thing to him at that time. "You come to the company, and you have the final say on the game."

"Then I'll think about it."

"Just have your words, wait for me to go back to the capital and talk to me in person."

"I'd like to wait and see what your project is."

"That's better, I'm more confident."

……

……

On June 11th, the Little Blue Fish Travel Group, Abu, the delegation departed from Funan, Funan Airport has not yet opened a direct flight to Los Angeles, so it needs to transfer from Xiangjiang, go through a 17-hour flight, and then arrive at Los Angeles International Airport.

This time from the Funan R&D headquarters, Ye Shenxi brought 12 people, Tan Xun and Shan Jie were also among them, and the rest were also the young backbones of the company, the stars of tomorrow.

Mainly planning and programming, because the backbone of the art department is still on the way back to Funan...... They have already finished this journey, from the departure of the army to the return of a full load, which lasted two and a half months, half a month more than the original plan, mainly in some places to make people linger and indulge in artistic creation.

Of course, sometimes because of body aches, I take a day off in place.

In the past two months, this group of people estimates that both professional skills and physical fitness should have improved.

The company also has Li Zhi to preside over the overall situation and welcome Cao Ruoruo's triumphant return.

And the No. 12 people brought by Ye Shenxi in the past, they couldn't arrange the venue for anything, and the speeches and new content introductions were all the work of Ye Shenxi's boss.

This time I took them over mainly to communicate with excellent peers all over the world, and the language must be passable, and the face-to-face dialogue hopes to inspire and help them.

The art gap in the domestic game industry is the smallest, followed by the program, and then the planning, which is more embarrassing. In the field of planning, the gap between ideas and ideas is the most fatal.

This thing is most affected by the atmosphere and the larger environment of the whole circle.

It is also necessary to have more contact with the outside world.

Among them, Doug took the initiative to ask Ying, at that time he directly found Ye Shenxi, as if he had been in China for a long time, and he had also learned some Chinese-style twisting, and said BOSS, can I go with you.

There is also a hint of resoluteness in the twisting, and there is no unrestrained in the subtlety.

Ye Shenxi knew that Doug was from New Jersey on the East Coast, but if it was about the country, it could be regarded as returning to China to visit relatives.

Two years ago, the trio decided to terminate the development of their game, and then wanted to sell the engine to recoup some of the cost so that their small supermarket could run smoothly.

In those months, Doug ran a lot of game companies in the United States, including EA, 2K, Activision, and glass slag that had not yet merged with Activision. But everyone rejected their Athena engine, which seemed relatively shabby when it was a single-player game.

Then Doug went to Europe, Yubi, Eidos...... is also the same fate, I came to China after these twists and turns, almost a wandering posture, Shengda, Huang Yi, E time and space, and finally met Ye Shenxi.

"I think I'm probably going to meet people I've met before, but turned me down," Doug said. Maybe they don't remember me anymore, but when you mentioned Athena 2.0 in your talk, I would go up to them, and even if it was unseemly, I wanted to tell them that it was my Athena, and see, she has changed from an ugly duckling to a white swan now. ”

Ye Shenxi asked: "Those days were very difficult, right?" ”

Doug said, "BOSS, I want to thank you, I am very content and grateful. I'm now working for a company that sold more than 12 million copies of its first commercial single-player game in just half a year, and I'm now the world's most popular MOBA, Eternal War, which has more than 3.8 million simultaneous online players, using Athena, which was despised by the executives of such a large company at the time. ”

"Athena 2.0, which I improved myself, is now going to make a truly top-of-the-line game that would have only existed in the imagination of the three of us in the supermarket at the time. Not only that, but it may even bring about change in the world, and yes, isn't that the ultimate pursuit? I'm changing the world too. ”

"So I'm grateful to you, BOSS, for the patience you gave me for a few hours at the developer conference dinner and for listening to me explain the engine to you, and in retrospect I think I was really long-winded...... Well, in fact, it's not good to get there now, I'm grateful to God for allowing me to come to China and meet you and Mr. Xia, that's it. ”

Ye Shenxi patted Doug on the shoulder and said, "I also thank you, Athena is the best gift that the three of you have brought to Qingyu Network." I wouldn't say that Athena 2.0 is the best game engine in the world, it has a lot to improve, but there are some qualities that are at the top of the world, and I would say I'm looking forward to Athena 3.0, 5.0, and even 10.0. ”

Doug was a little excited: "Yes, we will definitely try." ”

Ye Shenxi said: "You can almost watch this company grow, and I can also feel that as the company grows, you are also working harder, learning more knowledge, spending a lot of time optimizing details, racking your brains to think about better algorithms, and more effective solutions." All of this is in the eyes of the company, and the herring fish network is also grateful to have employees like you. ”

"Thanks, BOSS, we just want to be worthy of this company."

……

When Doug was about to leave Ye Shenxi's office, Ye Shenxi suddenly remembered an old saying that should not have become popular at this time, and stopped Doug and said, "Doug, you have been in China for so long, have you ever heard a sentence called "Don't bully young people into poverty"? ”

Doug nodded, "I've heard of it and know what it means." ”

"I think you are the [Don't bully the poor boy] himself."

Doug couldn't quite understand this sentence...... There was some ignorant expression.

"When you go to the United States to meet acquaintances, don't be too arrogant, just be appropriate."

"No......"

As for the other two guys, Kevin and Robinson, there must be someone else working in the company.

So the family didn't get neat up, so Doug went back to China and pretended to be forced to go alone......

Accompanied by Adam's CDPR four-person technical support team, they also need to transfer from Xiangjiang when they return to Poland, and they happen to be together.

It's been four months since they came from Warsaw. The contract between the two companies was originally for technical support once a year for a period of not less than three months.

Give them DLC for a virtue, and they also give away a free month of technical support DLC......

With the help of Adam and them, ProjectB's world framework has been built, not only to help solve a seamless world map, but also to help indoor and outdoor scenes without Loading~~~ Several typical weather templates have also been built, to derive a more complex climate, you only need to adjust the intensity of these parameters on these templates.

There are also some more details of the wind blowing a pool of spring water, rippling, soaking clothes, or the effect of wide sleeves of skirts fluttering in the wind has also been achieved, and even a considerable part of the workload of Shan Jie's overtime content these days is to adjust these detail parameters to make it look more real.

Naturally, these will also be things that will be shown "inadvertently" in the trailer.

According to Adam's exact words, he himself learned a lot during the four months of communication, including the tuning of their own "RED" engine and a more user-friendly editor tool, which can also reduce a lot of unnecessary work costs when applied to the CDPR team.

In terms of various humanization and ease of use, the herring network can really be said to be the world's top.

Even Adam has already had the year to end "The Witcher 2" as soon as possible, and quickly started the development of "The Witcher 3", and used the experience of these four months to build a real witcher world that is the same as ProjectB, or even more grand.

Fortunately, they followed Ye Shenxi together, otherwise...... They're here to communicate, wow, the main forces are almost gone, who are they going to communicate with?
