Chapter Seventy-One: Editor-in-Chief Lori Wants to Cooperate?
Regarding Li Yalin's production of computer games, it did arouse the curiosity of many students, but fortunately, it did not cause any sensation.
It's no wonder, after all, it's just a game made by high school students, and even if it's good, it's limited, and in everyone's impression, it can only be compared to those simple and rough games at most, and that's it.
Yes, during the period when the empire vigorously developed the entertainment industry, games have become an industry that has attracted the attention of capitalists, and a lot of money has poured in, which is why many game production companies have emerged.
Among them, there are large companies that are well-made, and naturally there are also small workshops that are shoddy.
Generally speaking, the goal of large companies is to strive for perfection, so that the games produced are more acceptable to players, but because of this, the number of games produced by large companies is quite scarce, and basically one or two games a year are already considered high-yielding.
On the other hand, if you look at the small game production companies, they are completely different from the big ones, and they are looking for short, flat and fast.
So what is short, flat and fast?
The game progression is short!
The story content is flat!
The production cycle is fast!
That is to say, many small companies are mixing in the attitude of testing the waters, maybe they want to fight, they can make a profit if they win, and they will not lose much if they lose, in this case, the number of shoddy games can be said to occupy a considerable part of the game market.
And the game made by a high school student, if it can be comparable to the game produced by such a small company, it is enough to represent a strength, in fact, if there is no Li Yalin to participate, the level of this college game competition is basically like this.
Since buying a computer, Li Yalin can better understand information through the Internet, and because of this, he is more confident in his game.
Although changed to his original world, Alice Sonata can only be said to be a niche game that few people know about...... Maybe it will become the originator of the maze turn-based RPG game!
So...... This next game competition, sure enough, you can still look forward to it a little.
After the lunch break, Li Yalin didn't sleep in the two classes in the afternoon, but even so, he was still recuperating.
Last night it took a whole night to draw an atlas and make BGM, and today he is going to officially start working on the game program, and the next is a big project, even if it is a conservative estimate, it will take him three nights to complete.
Typing on the keyboard is much more tiring than drawing, and it is completely impossible not to take advantage of the time to rest.
After the break to the end of school, Li Yalin said goodbye to Chunxiang and the others, went to the student union and met with Yujian.
Uami is very interested in the game that Li Yalin is making, and even said that if she can, she wants to see how Li Yalin makes the game with her own eyes.
It's a pity that Yumi's idea was categorically rejected by Li Yalin, although he didn't mind letting Yumi see the half-finished product, but if he really agreed to her, it meant that he would take this elder home with him.
Think about the girls in the family, and then look at the president of the fish in front of him, who has no discipline at all.
Sure enough, you have to decisively refuse.
"Teacher Yalin...... Are you going to participate in that college game creation contest? ”
After returning home from school, Li Yalin played in the store for a while as always, and then went upstairs with his schoolbag and turned on the computer to type code.
At this moment, his editor-in-charge saw that Zhang Meizi was suddenly coming, and his face was full of surprise.
"Do you listen to their beloved? Well, I do want to participate in that competition. ”
Regarding the fact that Li Yalin wants to make a game, the beloved knew last night, and if the beloved knew, it means that everyone will know, at this point, Li Yalin has absolute confidence in the beloved.
Because of this, when the editor in charge of the girl came, he understood what was going on.
But...... Why did Sister Zhang react so much?
"Could it be...... Is there a restriction on my cooperation with the magazine? ”
Subconsciously raised his eyebrows, Li Yalin felt that the reaction of the editor was too big, and there must be something wrong with it.
As a signed cartoonist of the weekly boy GONGON, he must have some restrictions, but he has read all the similar terms before signing the contract, and the restrictions on them are very relaxed, and they do not involve other industries.
But now...... Could it be that I was cheated by that Lori editor-in-chief?
"No, no, Mr. Yalin, you misunderstood, we definitely won't restrict the teacher's freedom, but I don't know what type of game you're going to make, teacher? Is it about Cat's-Eye? If so, Minano's editor-in-chief means that he wants to work with his teachers. ”
Hearing Li Yalin's question, seeing Zhang immediately waved her hand again and again, she was not here to restrict, but to cooperate.
Weekly Shonen Gongon is a manga magazine, but it also has a deep relationship with the game industry.
In fact, regarding the adaptation of Cat's-Eye's game, there have been more than one time when a game company approached the magazine, but Li Yalin did not let go of the game copyright, even if Minno was the editor-in-chief, he couldn't call the shots.
Regarding this issue, when the company held a meeting, it was mentioned many times, and Yin Sha saw that Zhang, as the editor in charge of Li Yalin, naturally kept this in mind.
Li Yalin didn't mention it before, and he wouldn't take the initiative when he saw Sister Zhang, but this time he started to make a game, and as the editor in charge, he had to report it quickly when he saw Sister Zhang.
After learning the news, Minno made a very decisive decision, no matter what, he would continue to cooperate with Mr. Yalin, and if he needed it, the magazine could immediately mobilize professional talents in games for him to help him complete the game and participate in the competition.
From this point of view, the editor-in-chief of Lori is full of sincerity, after all, according to her, Cat's-Eye is now the time for a big fire, and if you take advantage of this time to launch another game, you can definitely further hype up this IP!
It's a pity that Li Yalin never planned to do the cat's eye game, so she could only be disappointed.
"I didn't plan to make a cat's eye game, and even if I did, it would be too little time to complete it."
Regarding the idea of being entangled, Li Yalin refused directly without thinking about it, although the sincerity of the editor-in-chief of Lori is very strong, and what he said is right, taking advantage of the fact that the IP of Maoyan is hot, if the game is produced, there will definitely be many readers who will buy it.
It's a pity that there is too little time, and even with a professional team, it is impossible to make a finished game in just a few days.
After all, not everyone is like Li Yalin, who still has a plug-in.
