Chapter 223: Old acquaintance, Shengda Chen Qiao
Wen Ying also realized that something was wrong, this was a male boss.
Usually report to Xia Qingyu, how can you feel like choosing a concubine when you talk to Ye Shenxi? Should I go to Mr. Ye's office and say it?
The other employees also looked up and found that it was Ye Shenxi, and immediately buried themselves in their work, moving quickly and quickly, and they were a little more serious than before.
In the face of embarrassment, the best way to solve it is to be like a person who has nothing to do, to be generous and normal.
Ye Shenxi Gujing Bubo said: "It's not bad, it's quite in line with the image of our company, and it is conducive to showing our company's young, lively, positive and enterprising spirit." Then he pretended to flip backwards.
"Well, yes, this is the first time for our company to participate in CGS, so the requirements are very strict, these Shogirls not only have face and body requirements, but even the height difference is within 10 cm, to ensure a neat posture."
"Is this our outfit for this year?" In the photo, there is a beautiful and refined girl, with beautiful plates and thin strips, wearing a blue and white bandeau skirt. This set of clothes can also be regarded as conservative, relative to other manufacturers, Xia Qingyu should have been specifically instructed not to be in the limelight on such things as dressing.
Blue and white is the color of the logo of the herring fish network company, standing in the crowd of people in the venue, this relatively bright color should be quite eye-catching.
"Yes, this is designed and produced by a local clothing company, this model is our main product this year, called Zhang Jing, she is still a student, and this year is the first time to play a Shogirl." Wen Ying replied.
Why did he twist it on the model again, and he pulled it on his clothes.
"Not bad." Ye Shenxi said: "It's nothing, you're busy with yours." ”
"Okay." Wen Ying took the document, nodded, and left in a hurry.
Ye Shenxi also walked into his office lightly under the gaze of the employees.
……
On the second day, the CGS Summit Forum was held in the large luxury conference hall with a capacity of 800 people at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Pudong, and Ye Shenxi was one of the guests who were invited to speak today, and the speech time was in the morning.
In fact, there will be an unwritten ranking of seniority in every circle, just like the order of speeches in this forum, the ultimate goal of many game companies is that the boss can squeeze into the podium, and if you go further, squeeze into the morning speech.
Shengda's Chen Qiao was ranked first, and Qingyu Ye Shenxi was arranged to take the stage in the sixth place, with Shicheng Chen Xiaowei in front and E space-time pool Yufeng in the back, which is completely the current market share ranking of each company's game, which is very social.
Before the summit started, Ye Shenxi was also hanging around in the lounge, greeting and greeting the bigwigs.
Frankly speaking, this is not actually his previous social circle, the previous Ye Shenxi was more of a game producer, and occasionally participating in some activity forums was also related to game research and development, and now Qingyu Network's achievements in the game field have actually exceeded the milestones of the year, and he also has an extra layer of identity as the boss of a large game company, compared to the game producer, this identity is much heavier in this circle.
In fact, many bigwigs in this circle also started with technology, but there are no young ones like him, no.
On today's high-end and serious occasion, Ye Shenxi also changed into casual clothes, showing off his suit and leather shoes, which made him even more extraordinary, and he felt like he stood out from the crowd of bigwigs.
Standing in the hall is quite recognizable.
At this time, a middle-aged man who looked to be forty years old walked in front of Ye Shenxi, with a slight fat, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a wide heart and a fat body, and looked at Ye Shenxi with a smile and said, "Mr. Ye, meet again." ”
Ye Shenxi stretched out his right hand and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Meng." ”
This person is Meng Xianmin, general manager of CCTV network element, in early May, when Ye Shenxi was wandering in the capital and uniting major distribution companies, CCTV network element was one of his main goals, and he chatted with Meng Xianmin for longer than Zhan Ping of Huanyu Star, because Meng Xianmin was not only the general manager of the acting distribution company of CCTV network element, but also the chairman of Huangpu Zhulong.
Meng Xianmin himself is a disc pressing, printing, packaging, distribution of the integration of the beginning, his first offset printing factory peak, 70% of the domestic stand-alone games are pressed into discs in his place, compared to many game people, he has a deeper understanding and vision of the game industry, especially stand-alone games, which is why Ye Shenxi and he can talk for a long time.
Because of the influence and investment of CCTV, Meng Xianmin actually treats CCTV network element as a TV station, whether it is a stand-alone machine or an online game, it is a channel of the TV station, he insists on a stand-alone machine, but he does not exclude online games, and will not refuse any kind of game.
After the dissolution of Huangpu Soft Star last year, Zhang Yijun led the team to get Meng Xianmin's investment, and then established Huangpu Zhulong, and began to develop a Xianxia stand-alone game called "Ancient Sword Story", aiming to create another sword after the domestic three swords, and the ambition is not small.
Over the years, CCTV Netelement has also established a good cooperative relationship with international manufacturers like EA in stand-alone game publishers, and has learned a lot, and now they are also developing their own games.
Of course, Ye Shenxi knew that the game "The Legend of the Ancient Sword" was launched in 2010, and it had sold more than 600,000 units at the end of that year, creating a record for the sales of domestic stand-alone games at that time, and then five years later, the popular TV series of the same name drove another wave of sales, and finally reached nearly 800,000.
Of course, its record was refreshed again a year later by Beijing Soft Star's "Sword and Fairy 5", and Sword and Fairy 5 sold more than 1 million sets in the main story alone, but that is because of the popularity accumulated by the entire series of Sword and Fairy for so many generations, and the reputation is not higher than "The Legend of the Ancient Sword".
"Just call me Lao Meng." Meng Xianmin said with a smile, this old brother has a natural self-familiarity.
"Okay, Mr. Meng."
"Mr. Ye, your platform is really hot, and I estimate that it is difficult for many people present today not to hear about the current name of "Survival". Meng Xianmin's tone was very sincere, and the smile on his face also made people feel that he was really happy for Ye Shenxi.
"It's just opportunistic." Ye Shenxi said modestly.
After all, survival is only a low-cost 2D game.,The taste of indie games is actually very heavy.,This kind of game wants to be popular in fact, the accidental component is much bigger than the commercial masterpiece.,The right time and place are indispensable.。
The reason why it can be as popular as it is now is not because Ye Shenxi is ahead of the insight and ideas of this era......
"I don't think so." Meng Xianmin shook his head: "Actually, the game "Survival" really gave me a lot to think about. ”
"When I was in the capital at that time, Mr. Ye said that you wanted to be a stand-alone game publishing platform. Personally, I'm really supportive, but if I want to say how optimistic I am, I don't. ”
Ye Shenxi nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Although what you said about the Belt and Road Initiative at the time, I later thought it was really reasonable, but over the years, I have seen too many people die on the road of stand-alone games." Meng Xianmin said: "So we Zhulong plan to make a stand-alone machine, or we have to start with Xianxia RPG, at least this seems to be the most secure, and it is also the foreman they are best at." "Foreman Jun is another name for Zhang Yijun.
"We've actually thought about making some very interesting, all kinds of games, like the previous indicators, strategy, dark and whatever, and there are still some ideas that we want to try."
"I know that Mr. Zhang also did "The Han and Rome" and "Cat and Dog Wars" back then."
"yes, but sales are dismal. At that time, even the foreman was a little suspicious of himself, and found that he could only sell it by making the "Fairy Sword" series. On the one hand, it may be that we are not capable enough, and on the other hand, we are also worried that the market and players will not accept it. ”
"You're a lot more courageous than we are." Meng Xianmin's eyes sparkled as he looked at Ye Shenxi, making Ye Shenxi a little hairy.
"I just want to try." That's all it can say.
"yes, I just want to try. Just like you read the open letter before, I read it several times, someone has to do it, and I'm glad to see that it's a talented young man like you who takes the lead in doing it, which makes me feel that our own game is still very promising. ”
Well, Ye Shenxi's age makes it easy to ignore his qualifications, if he really talks about making games, he is actually more "old-qualified" than many people here today.
It's just that the one in front of him is almost twice his age, and that's someone who really wants to do a good game, and he's so sincere.
Ye Shenxi could only nod solemnly.
"To be honest, we haven't thought about the gameplay of "Survival", and we have also tried to think about an open-ended game, but it is also limited to the framework of traditional RPG, just like the previous "Win the Gate", the domestic "Legend of the Heroes Trilogy", an open-ended plot and mission. But it's the first time I've seen a game like yours that has no quests at all and relies on the players to figure out how to build it themselves. ”
"You really dare." Meng Xianmin shook his head and smiled heartily.
Ye Shenxi didn't know how to respond...... Among the old men of domestic game manufacturers, Meng Xianmin is definitely one of the people who know games very well, which Ye Shenxi knew when he was in the Beijing Netelement Company before.
This is a compliment to split his head and cover his face, and Ye Shenxi is also very helpless.
"Now even Americans play, haha." Meng Xianmin actually laughed out loud when he said this, and Ye Shenxi didn't expect him to pay attention to this kind of news.
"How many stand-alone game users are there on the FG platform now? Mr. Ye, can you reveal it. ”
There is nothing to hide, Ye Shenxi said: "Two and a half million." ”
"Yo ho, so many?"
"But there are fewer people who spend money on games, and now it's less than 100,000." Ye Shenxi said bluntly.
"Your platform has only been online for a few days, and players have to get used to it, so maybe they have to apply for a bank card first. Look at this later. ”
That's one of the reasons.
"I'm really happy, in addition to participating in the event this time, the most important thing is that I want to talk to you again, the more I think about the things you talked about before after I go back, the more interesting I find it."
"No problem, Mr. Meng can call me at any time, I should be in Huangpu during this time."
"When our "Ancient Sword Story" is made, we will definitely choose to debut on the FG line, and Mr. Ye will have to give us a better advertising space at that time."
"That's a real deal."
……
When the summit was about to start, Ye Shenxi came over to greet Ye Shenxi again, this person has known him for a long time, Chen Qiao of Huangpu Shengda, this is a legend-like figure.
