Chapter 226: Ionia's Mouth is the King of Strong
Jurassic Island suddenly became very lively, in addition to the researchers of the research institute and the construction team responsible for the construction of Jurassic Island, a group of people also rushed to Jurassic Island.
Steve Spielberg enjoys a very high reputation in Hollywood, USA, and even the world, although because of the different worlds, some of his movies have not appeared in this world, such as the "Jurassic Park" series, and "Artificial Intelligence".
However, his other works still make him famous all over the world, such as "ET", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series, "Saving Private Ryan", and many more.
In this case, when Steve Spielberg decided to work with Apple to shoot a Jurassic Park commercial, he had already assembled a team of people and began to collect information on Jurassic Island.
Tom Ding, the head of Apple's game division, is very shameless in trying to relocate his game division to Jurassic Island in the name of cooperating with the filming of the promotional film.
"Boss, don't you think it's a very reasonable thing to do if we develop a game on this island?"
Tom Ding was struggling to advise his boss Wen Ming: "To be reasonable, the people who develop games are a group of otaku, for otaku, what could be more suitable than working on an island far from the mainland?" ”
Wen Ming looked at Tom Ding helplessly and said, "How big do you think my Jurassic Island is?" I'm going to build a park on top of this, and my research institute. ”
Thomding smiled and said, "Boss, we are developing games, we only need a large office, and then we can solve the living needs of less than a hundred of us." This is not worth mentioning for Jurassic Island, which has 26 square kilometers, you know, there is a country called Tuvalu, their total land area is only 26 square kilometers, but their country has a permanent population of more than 10,000 people, and it is divided into several cities. ”
I have also heard about the country of Tuvalu, and I have heard that it is about to be submerged by the sea because of its low altitude.
Wen Ming said: "Tell me first, what kind of game are you going to develop?" If it's just a plan I've given you, then you don't have any right to ask for it. ”
Apple's gaming division, which has developed all the games so far, has been very successful and has been able to generate a lot of money for Apple every month. However, these games are all based on the plans that Wen Ming has copied from those games that have been successful in the other world, and handed them over to Tom Ding to do.
That said, so far, Apple's gaming division has not developed a single game on its own.
After hearing this question, Tomding's expression instantly became excited, and he said: "Boss, I was about to report this matter to you, I already have a very genius game idea, and I have also poached more than a dozen people from Blizzard, including some high-level executives of Blizzard, such as Steve Guinsoo, the original map author of DotA, the main planner of World of Warcraft and Warcraft 3...... By the way, boss, have you ever played DotA? I'm talking about Steve Guinso, Guinsoo's evil scythe. ”
When it comes to his hobbies, Tom Ding's mood seems a little excited, of course, being a movie screenwriter is also his hobby, so he wants to relocate the game division he manages to Jurassic Island.
In this way, he can participate in the filming of the movie "Jurassic Park" while developing the game. After all, for a Hollywood blockbuster like "Jurassic Park", the shooting time plus the time to make special effects will take at least a year or more, and even if it is only for special effects, because it requires dinosaur models, it also needs to be done on Jurassic Island.
Wen Ming hadn't actually played DotA, so he didn't know anything about sheep knives or anything, but when he heard Tomding say that he had dug up someone from Blizzard and was still the main creator of DotA, he had some premonitions in his heart.
"Tomding, tell me about your new game plan."
Wen Ming is the boss after all, and Tom Ding, as a subordinate, can make reasonable demands, but how can the boss pull some other things when he has an order?
"Boss, regarding the new game, we have named it 'League of Legends' on the internal plan, it is a MOBA type game, and our design concept is like this......"
Tomding's explanation of the design of the game, Wen Ming no longer needs to listen to it, his heart is actually a little broken.
How could he not know the game League of Legends?
As the Ionian king of Ionia, who is known as the gathering place of professional gamers in the League of Legends national server in another world, Wen Ming's understanding of League of Legends may be more than the entire game division of Apple led by Tom Ding, as well as the dozen or so people who have just been poached from Blizzard.
But the question is, why League of Legends?
Shouldn't this game have been officially launched abroad in 2009, and now it's 2010, but someone has just told me to start development?
Tom Ding Balabala for a long time only to find that his boss had wandered, so he said a little embarrassed: "Boss, this game may not sound interesting, it doesn't seem to be much different from DotA, but in fact, I am very confident in this game." ”
Wen Ming was stunned just now, just because he remembered the days and nights he had spent in order to rush to the section, but at this time, Tomding's boss made him return to the present.
What about League of Legends?
What about the king with a strong mouth?
Do you still need to care about these things?
The feeling of not being able to go back to the past is bad in many cases, but for Wen Ming now, if he suddenly returns to the old days, and all the knowledge he has obtained is suddenly news, then he will definitely choose to commit suicide.
"Come on, as for relocating the game division to Jurassic Island......"
Wen Ming thought about it for a while and found that what Tom Ding said was indeed very right, not only because otaku like otaku, but also because even otaku have entertainment needs. If the game division can be relocated to Jurassic Island, then where will those people go to entertain?
What else can you do but honestly seize the time to develop a game?
"You can go and talk to Lilith, let him communicate with the construction team and Cui Chuanming, and help you sort out an office area."
Thomding said excitedly: "Thank you boss, don't worry, I will definitely let our team develop this game as soon as possible, and then create enough profits for the company." At the same time, we will definitely not give up on the maintenance of other games that we have already launched in the market. ”
After sending Tomding away, Wen Ming could only feel the similarity and difference between the two worlds, and originally wanted to educate Tomding when Tomding made this somewhat unreasonable demand. But as soon as he heard that Tom Ding was able to lead the game division and come up with the League of Legends as a money-absorbing weapon, the unhappiness in his heart had already dissipated.
Although he is not short of that amount of money at all, a team that can develop a game with an annual revenue of more than 1 billion US dollars for itself has absolutely no problem changing the office address.
Moreover, based on the huge user base that the iPhone already has, as well as the user base accumulated by those games that have been launched before, it is very easy for Wenming to promote a game. Therefore, he can definitely get the vast majority of those profits.
What's more, if League of Legends is developed in his hands, then the king pesticide will naturally be developed by his subordinates, and it is not a copycat. As for someone's business, at most, they can only get agency permissions. If you dare to copy, then when the time comes, you will take all the products of someone's company offline on the iPhone, or charge a super high 'protection fee'.
Coupled with the profitability of King Pesticides, Wen Ming suddenly found that it was really easy to make money.
Just these two games, from the time they were launched to the time when they stopped maintenance, they could definitely provide him with a profit of more than $10 billion, and this money, even the current Wen Ming, can never be ignored.
"Cage gave me a surprise, and Thomding gave me a surprise, so who else would surprise me?"
