Chapter 66: Special Effects Master

At night, it was already ten o'clock when the convoy returned to the villa area of Lanting Villa.

Lu Xiaoqin, Liu Qian, Fan Nana, Ainos, and Cheng Xiaoya, who were tired for a day, all collapsed on my bed after taking a bath.

Looking at the five beautiful women lying next to me in uniform white bathrobes, I actually didn't have any strength. It is estimated that he was also frightened by this wait, and the second child actually flinched, and Mi had no reaction.

The whole big bed is black and crowded with beautiful women, how can you sleep on this?

Liu Qian and Ainos contacted mainland actor Hu Ge, Japanese actor Oda Cherang, and American actor Jason respectively during the day? Statham, actress I Elena? Gilbert, actresses Angelina Judy and Mila? Jovovich. When they heard about the shooting plan and the honorarium, they immediately agreed. Each person appeared on the camera for less than 50 seconds, and the remuneration was 600,000 US dollars, who wouldn't want it? And there is a later schedule. This game and popularity have exceeded 30 million players.

The ten-minute game intro uses such a heavyweight movie star, which is originally a money-burning business, but what can I do if I am a money-burning product?

And just for the costumes used by the actors, a 200 million yuan costume contest was held in advance. Who would have thought of this?

All I need is momentum to let players know that I'm not just going to make money, I'm spending a lot of money for players.

In order to make music and background dubbing for the game "Virtual Time and Space", I contacted thebeatles before, and now I have invited the top four famous bands in the world, thestones, thebeatles, eangle, and beyond. Have them voice each scene of the game.

Because the servers in the later stage are not only in the Xia Kingdom, but all over the world, it is necessary to require different styles of game background music absolutely, and at least forty tunes are required. Singers will be invited to record various songs in the later stage. It's not just about spending a lot of money, it's about building a game with a lot of money, and players will face a real and passionate game world, and they will be nostalgic in this virtual world.

Paul is an international special effects designer who has produced the films "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban", "Hugo" and the musical "Ghost Love"? Paul Kiefer can be described as a rare high-tech, high-value first-line celebrity in the industry. The visuals he designed were unique, so the post-production of my short film would leave him a place in the post.

Tokyo is not only an open-ended game, but also a real-world world that blends music, world-class supercars, top models and movie masters.

I was relieved that each band only needed to come up with four pieces of their own tunes to deliver their first installments of background music on July 21st, which was enough time for them to give them nearly 38 days.

I almost saw the hot opening of "Hot Blooded Tokyo", and the crazy shouts of players in the later stage.

I also have a unique game server launch event, which I expect will surprise players all over the world.

I have already written the main program for the opening content of the three games of "Super Running Wild", "Bloody Killing" and "Beauty Like a Cloud", as long as the server group is started, we will wait and see.

When I was making the plan for these games, Liu Qian and Ainos, who saw the content, both commented on me in unison: "You are a game maniac. ”

Yes, after the statement in the afternoon, the reporter also officially announced the beauty contest in the Asian region that began on the 12th, and it is the top beauty, so you can come.

The news of the shooting of the costume contest and the opening movie of the special effects game, Liu Qian officially announced it at the press conference. It is estimated that several online game celebrities in China are estimated to be stunned at the moment. spent nearly 400 million yuan in publicity to create "Bloody Tokyo".

Maybe some people who make games don't understand that it is more cost-effective to invite real people to make movies as game titles, it is better to buy the portrait rights of stars and then make game CGs, at least the shooting cost is saved, and the cost is less than one-tenth of this cost.

It is not necessary to spend money on model contests and fashion contests.

There is a saying that a reluctant child can't trap a wolf.

In fact, judging from the input cost of the game, I didn't do a technical and cost analysis with my senior white-collar workers.

The main cost of the game is reflected in the three-dimensional realistic modeling of the game platform, but after the main model is established, the other models are just applied, and there is no need to repeatedly rebuild the basic new model for a new scene and item props. For example, clothes, after making a model of a garment, the rest of the same clothes do not need to be different in color and size, and it does not take much time to modify them, and batch abrasives can be formed. The same is true for houses, mountains, rivers, streets, viaducts, etc., all of which have inherent basic realistic framework models, new realistic scenes, and are just a process of modification and recombination. It's like building blocks, you don't need to spend a lot of work to make another set of blocks, you just need to change the way the blocks are built.

The second major expense is in the construction of server groups. However, the server I have signed a fixed contract with a computer host manufacturer, merged with the motherboard intelligent production line of this manufacturer, its supporting spare parts, small electronic components factory, and purchased at a very low price, the cost of producing a server host is one-third of the price I went to buy, not to mention, my supply channels have been guaranteed. And I have no shortage of other suppliers of peripheral spare parts.

The three major costs are network fees, which I can negotiate with the local telecom fiber department for traffic costs, which can greatly reduce the costs.

The second is to develop the game's engine and the program of the game's mission package, which can be continuously copied to other regional versions of the game after development, without incurring new costs. Therefore, the later tasks of the engine development team and the game task editing development team will be new games, new mission program edits. But it definitely won't be the content of a Virtual Time Games anymore.

These technical developers, online game operation and maintenance personnel, internal managers, and game promotion and sales personnel, in fact, the salary and salary I give are relatively high, in fact, more than 40% of the salary of my peers, and after the benefit commission, it is almost double the remuneration of many people.

But compared to the profit ratio brought by this game, the proportion of people is not much. And these core personnel are the same, in the process of developing the game, they can continue to split into other branch personnel, that is, the managers of Xia Guo can go to the Japanese server group for management, and they can also be transferred to the United States, to the United Kingdom, etc., these countries have only one cheap management personnel in charge of his basic work.

In fact, there is a huge gap in the distribution of salaries and bonuses between the company's core members and peripheral employees.

In this way, I only need one senior executive to give him the salary of two regular supervisors, and he can manage five to ten branches. For the managers of the branches, I hired ordinary employees at half the salary of the management cadres. I'm actually saving money and hiring someone to manage everything.

Management is a science, and how to hire managers is even more of a science.

In this way, the upfront cost of the game seems to be huge, and the profit that accompanies the game is indeed huge. However, in the later period, when the new area is constantly released, there is basically no cost of repeated investment, just sitting and collecting money. All the units needed for the game are mature and ready-made, and the new engine development team and the game programming software development team are actually completing tomorrow's plans, tomorrow's tasks, and they are indeed taking today's salary.

I'm a group of movie actors, but I only pay for one movie when I make two different films.

But a lot of money is invested in clothing and models, in fact, the drunkard does not mean to drink, by setting off the heat wave of the "Virtual Time and Space" game, I invested a lot of money into it, and the players are very comfortable to watch at the same time, my clothing industry, the film industry is quietly rising at the same time.

It's a sum of money doing two things. Am I stupid?

And I can lend you money as supermodels, lend you contracts for filming, and they have become tangible assets. When my clothing store opens, will my clothing not have a masterclass effect?

This is a commercial brand effect that cannot be earned back by 400 million.

I'm investing in today and looking to the future.

In fact, at the same time as coming up with these plans, I've seen that I'm earning.

Whether a company can make money depends not on how many employees work and work hard, but on whether there is a high-IQ planner who is planning the future development of the company.

This kind of talent is not something you can hire if you have money. And I was rejected by small game companies on the grounds that there was not enough weight in the office, which is not only ridiculous, but many things in this world are fundamentally ridiculous.

Some people may say that you are so capable, why don't you have a diploma? There is a saying that answers, I only have time to improve myself, I don't have time to show off. Do the writers and scientists of the past have diplomas, what diplomas? What diploma is Li Shizhen? Li bai?

A diploma is an ID card for ordinary people, not a job for a great man.

I was lying beside five beautiful women, thinking about something that I was very entangled with, that is, my master.

Why do they want to teach me these skills that ordinary people can't do at all, that they can't think of?

And I couldn't see their mysterious figures even when I was so successful. Who is my master?

What is the value of my life in this world?

Thinking back to the dark night nineteen years ago, a mysterious person entered the house and took Li Cheng away, and behind him was the shouts and chases of a large group of people, "We must find the little cub, and we can't leave a disaster ......"

This voice has been lingering in Li Cheng's ears all the time, and it can't be dispersed for a long time.

From that day on, a five-year-old boy was left without parents and a home of his own.

And the boy never cried, he didn't know how to cry, he didn't dare to cry, he was afraid that he would not have the courage to live because he thought of his parents.

Every day, a master came to him, brought him delicious food, gave him a beautiful picture album, gave him fun toys, taught him martial arts, how to practice qi, memorized poetry and prose, and memorized many things that ordinary people could not remember.

Because the master said that when Li Cheng has the ability to support the pressure brought to him by this world, he will have a happy home of his own again, and his parents will return to him.

But Li Cheng did not live up to his master's hopes, he has been studying harder than ordinary people, and has been working very seriously, he suddenly found that he is no longer an ordinary person. He felt himself standing at a height that was impossible for a large group of people to reach. What height will this be?

The five women around him all slept soundly, almost as if they had been discussed, and squeezed into his bed together.

Li Cheng looked at these cute, beautiful and kind girls, and he suddenly had a strange psychological reaction, this kind of impact like an electric current passing through the body to reach the limbs and bones, maybe it is called happiness.

Li Cheng quietly approached them and kissed them on the cheeks one by one.

These beautiful girls sprouted his strong protection**.

Li Cheng suddenly seemed to hear the call of a mother in mid-air: "Li Cheng, the child grows up, mom can rest assured." Then a man's voice said, "Good son, you know how to behave, and we will be happy for you." ”

Li Cheng looked around, there was no figure in the empty room, he came to the big balcony and looked at the stars outside.

It seemed as if a dark shadow had disappeared into a hill not far away.

(From today, the nuclear explosion will be 3 days in a row, 5 chapters per day, everyone will recommend it, more intense and better stories are waiting for you, thank you for collecting and recommending)
