Chapter 82: The Careful Thoughts of the Manufacturers
Empty floors, dirty walls.
Meng Shu stepped on the dust all over the ground, came to the window, silently lit a cigarette, and took a deep breath.
Looking at the greenery of the industrial park from the height of the 7th floor, I spit out smoke rings.
"Quote a good price."
"Okay, Mr. Meng."
The professional clothing agent behind her smiled her trademark smile.
"Jichuang Industrial Park is located in a relatively prosperous area, with a variety of lifestyle shops and restaurants nearby, and the subway station is less than 10 minutes away. If you sincerely want to rent, this whole floor of more than 500 square meters can give you 4 square meters / day. ”
After hearing this, Meng Shu nodded.
"Is the monthly rent 60,000 yuan, but what about the property management fee?"
"The property management fee is 15 yuan per square meter, paid monthly."
After Meng Shu heard this, he took a deep breath of cigarette, exhaled, and drifted into the air.
"67,500."
He turned around, walked into the empty company, and took a closer look.
This is one of the rooms on the 7th floor of Building A of Jichuang Industrial Park.
In terms of scale, it is almost 70 square meters.
Originally, Meng Shu didn't plan to consider here, even if the location was good, he was ready to change places.
Because it's too small.
But then the agent lady said that the whole floor had been moved, so he stopped.
After careful questioning, I learned that the previous company was a training company, and I couldn't do it for some reason, so I chose to leave.
Meng Shu didn't care about the previous company.
An opportunity like this for an entire floor is rare in Deep City.
And the area is about 500 square meters, as long as the wall outside the load-bearing wall is opened, then it will be very spacious.
So he thought about it and didn't leave in time.
Instead, I went in and looked at every room.
I have to say, there is a lot of garbage.
The last training company left a lot of stuff here.
"Is it possible to have a lower price?"
The intermediary suddenly had some difficulties.
"Mr. Meng, this price is already the lowest. Originally, it was 5 square meters/day, but you are a young entrepreneur, and I also talked to the landlord for a long time, so there was a price of 4 square meters/day. ”
Meng Shu couldn't help but smile a little when he saw the sincerity of what the intermediary said.
Just listen to these words of hers.
After looking around, the more I looked, the more satisfied I became, and I faintly had a decoration plan in my heart.
If you rent it out, you can have more people.
At the same time, for the sake of the health of employees, the fitness room and desks and chairs have to be upgraded in all aspects.
So the office area and the fitness area should be a little bigger.
You also have to hire a cooking aunt to avoid them eating takeout.
There is enough space for the mocap room to be built larger, and since it is a game company, it makes sense to have a full-platform game experience room.
At the very least, employees can relax here.
Of course, you may not be able to use it frequently because you are too busy with work.
But it doesn't matter, for Meng Shu, it is always okay to have a lounge like this, and the employees will definitely use it.
So after thinking about it for a while, he decided to rent it.
So after talking to the intermediary lady about the potential safety hazards and follow-up situations, I went to the intermediary company to sign the contract.
Next, it's time to find the right renovation company and start designing the decoration.
Meng Shu directly handed over this matter to Sister Mei, the treasurer, and then went to the real estate center.
The new office space has been chosen, and the rest is to renovate.
I don't think it will take half a year to get it done.
So I still have to work in my current company.
And due to the problem of space, there are not many places for new employees, so the recruitment of people has to continue to be shelved.
At the same time, the console transplantation of the three games "Dark Forest", "21 o'clock" and "Face" was also outsourced by Meng Shu.
Originally, it was going to be handed over to Infinite Net Entertainment, but now they are also developing new games and can't spare time.
Therefore, I can only provide a few studios that have long-term cooperation and have good technical skills for Meng Shu to choose.
Meng Shu took the time to get to know these companies, and finally chose a small company called 'Future Studio'.
Although their scale is not large, judging from the company's information, it is quite powerful.
They are involved in most FPS on the market, and they themselves say that they are very good at shooting games and are long-term partners of many game companies.
Due to their surprisingly good shooting feedback, they have a good reputation in the industry and in the gamer community.
So it's a bit overkill to let them help port the game.
However, this also made Meng Shu very relieved, and directly handed over all three games to them for transplantation at one time, and the funds were also abundant.
The goal is to make horror games accessible to players who are afraid to play VR in other ways.
As for the VR version of The Dark Forest.
Due to the technical limitations of the engines currently on the market, no company can do it except for its own monkey system.
So you have to do it yourself.
Qiu Yuan, Xu Hong, Xia Nianzhen, they are now working intensively.
Chen An even asked him to expand the plot and add side quests to the VR version of "Dark Forest".
Meng Shu thought about it and agreed to this request.
Anyway, everything will be reviewed by him before it can be implemented, so let them play to their heart's content.
Now, it's time for a new home.
...
At this time, because of the global popularity of "Sky Mountain", there are also public accusations from the technical game network.
Many large and medium-sized manufacturers in China have begun to re-examine this development company called 'One and Only Game'.
Although I paid a little attention to the game "Gloomy Forest" before, I didn't pay attention to it.
After all, the game was a horror game at the time, and it was advertised as a personal development.
Therefore, domestic manufacturers do not think that there will be any achievements.
It's just a whimsical young man who wants to chase his dreams.
Because of such people, there are many of them at the college game show every year.
But what shocked their jaws was that this young man actually succeeded!?
The game industry is known as extremely unpopular, and the horror and suspense genre of who did who did and who died really made him, an unknown young man, and the game popular?
But even so, the major manufacturers were only slightly surprised and did not pay attention to it.
After all, the horror game genre has been unpopular for more than ten years.
Suddenly there is a popular horror game, which is purely a flashback before the death of the market, or a small wave of calm.
After that, it was still as calm as ever.
They won't enter the horror market brainlessly because of the explosion of a horror game, and they will venture into it without experience, which is an act of seeking death.
It's better to be honest about the type of game you're good at.
And for more than a decade, there has been no shortage of bold companies that have ventured into this unpopular market to make profits, but they have all failed.
With so many failures in the past, they don't want to blindly spend a lot of money and manpower on a horror game with an unknown future just because of a single success story.
Therefore, the explosion of "Dark Forest" made manufacturers not think so, and even thought that it was just a good time and place, and the next one may not have such results.
But...
They never expected it.
Following "The Dark Forest", this young man actually fell on the thigh of unlimited online entertainment!
Then relying on the gold owner, the VR horror game "21 o'clock" was launched!
And it's free!
VR+Free+Horror, combined, was undoubtedly a fall from the sky in the period when the horror environment was extremely poor and VR games were extremely bad!
So not surprisingly, this horror game is popular again, and the 410W download volume has made manufacturers realize that the horror game market has gradually recovered!
It's no longer the backwater it used to be!
It's a 'XX market' with a large number of players and a lot of money!
As a result, major domestic manufacturers paid attention to it and began to investigate the market in all aspects.
But after all, this market has been cold for so long that everyone has no experience in making horror games.
In the case of 0 experience, if you enter the market rashly, you will only be crushed by "Dark Forest" and "21 o'clock", and you will become a stepping stone for others, and you will become a succession for others with your own reputation.
No way!
So you still have to be cautious, at least you have to be experienced!
As a result, major manufacturers began to recruit talents and prepare for entering the horror game market.
As for the only game, they still don't pay attention to it, after all, Infinite Online Entertainment has a reputation.
The success of the game can only be considered the strength of this head company, not the only game that is a 'part-time job'.
As a result, they have always believed that Unlimited Online Entertainment is the only owner of the game.
Then, the major manufacturers gathered their talents and began to study "Dark Forest" and "21 Points", analyzing their gameplay and mechanics.
In this case, the advent of "Face" once again shocked the manufacturers.
This new game has an unprecedented rational setting, an ingenious plot performance, a terrifying thriller experience, and a confusing story background.
With super high quality, it once again conquered the players.
The manufacturers couldn't sit still.
They see it in their eyes and are anxious in their hearts.
If this continues, the entire horror game market will become unlimited online entertainment.
Therefore, manufacturers began to desperately plan to come out with a game to test the water first and see how the market responds.
Try to experience without experience, after all, this thing is accumulative!
With this in mind, manufacturers began to act.
Unexpectedly, at this time, a dark horse was killed halfway!
Jiyou Network was born with his "Jungle Horror" and forcibly occupied the market.
With its own technical hard power, it squeezed out the factories and used the horror games launched to laugh proudly.
Then it cooled.
The kind that can't be saved.
This has made major manufacturers vigilant again.
The history of the horror game Who Did Who Cool has re-enacted!
Even the leading companies' technical game networks have failed miserably, so how dare these small and medium-sized companies spend money on trial and error?
However, everyone has been recruited, the working group has been formed, and the game has been analyzed, so do you want to give up halfway?
Looking at the horror game market of fragrant buns, major manufacturers decided to take the failure of technical games as a warning. Immediately immersed in it, planning to work slowly and carefully, focusing on quality, and developing his own horror game, so as not to follow in the footsteps of the game.
In this way, until the release of "Sky Mountain", it was still in production.
At the same time, because of the prize event of the only game, they faced it squarely.
This company, which is positioned as a 'part-time job' in their eyes, has already made a global hit game in less than a year since its establishment.
It also paid for an event that amounted to free giving back to players.
You say that Unlimited Internet Entertainment will be so kind?
That's definitely impossible, everyone is in the same industry, and they all know a little bit about what virtues are.
Does a capitalist give money to a group of people who play games, or just play games?
Will Unlimited Online Entertainment do this?
Joke!
So the only one who can come up with the money and make the decision on his own is the only game itself.
If they are really part-time jobs, Unlimited Internet Entertainment will definitely not agree to do so.
So the relationship between these two...
It may not be what the outside world thinks...
The quality of the only game is surprisingly high, and the technical strength has also reached the VR field.
These alone are enough for manufacturers to pay attention to.
As a result, a company called Xingheng Games attracted the attention of the only game.
