Chapter 971: Krypton to Death
Yes?
Facing Gu Xiu's questioning, Luo Xiang's first reaction was to be stunned, and then he came back to his senses:
"Got it."
"According to the boss, although it is borrowed from the name of the three-body game, it is only said to internal employees, in fact, the two companies are completely independent."
"This new company is a shell of a small local game company, which is now called WA
slikγ β
"Although it was acquired, the company's main market was for web games and the like, and the volume was not large, and the equipment was not very good, so in addition to borrowing some of their qualifications, we needed to rebuild everything else."
"So far, the company's office decoration has been improved, and the game team has been set up."
"According to your request boss, they have been training recently, mainly practicing some of the browser games we have made before, in addition, I also asked them to imitate the previous three-body game, and did a project screening activity."
"The content of the event is the same as in the three-body game before."
"If you have an idea and a thought, you can make a game plan and submit it, and after it is approved, it can be set as the main project of the company in the future."
ββ¦β¦β
In fact, there were plans for overseas game companies a few years ago, especially when Supernova was launched globally, and Three-Body Games also set up branches all over the world.
But.
With the development of the past few years, most of these branches have been merged and closed, after all, it is mainly used for market expansion and server construction and maintenance, in fact, there is no need to have so many branches.
Of course.
The main thing is because.
Supernova Battles is a game with a huge player base around the world, and there is no need to promote it yourself.
And it's relatively better than doing it yourself.
In fact, they are more willing to find a local agent.
After all.
The fame of supernova battles was there, and the banner of finding agents had just been flagged, and many agency requests from game companies around the world were immediately received.
And after the internal discussion of the three-body game, it was determined.
Instead of being thankless and spending a lot of money to expand branches, it is better to streamline the number of overseas branches a little, and each region will be carried out according to the agent.
And some time ago.
Gu Xiu suddenly asked Luo Xiang to get a game company out of Amelikan again, but it was interesting.
According to Gu Xiu's words.
This company can borrow the name of the three-body game.
But in essence, it has nothing to do with the three-body game, and even Gu Xiu reminded him to try to use the mode of selling dog meat on the head of a sheep as much as possible.
Although Luo Xiang felt very inexplicable about this request.
But.
The boss explained that of course he would obey unconditionally.
But it's just obedience, Luo Xiang himself forgot about it after he finished it, if it weren't for Gu Xiu suddenly asking, he would have forgotten himself.
There is also such a special company.
"Yes, so the company now has the ability to launch games on its own, right?"
Gu Xiu asked.
Luo Xiang nodded:
"Theoretically, after all, when we recruited people before, we played the name of Three-Body Game, so many of the people who joined were actually game practitioners with certain experience."
"Even if you don't have work experience, you basically belong to the kind of graduates from prestigious universities."
"It's not enough to do something god-made or something."
"But there is still no problem with ordinary distribution point games, the main thing is to have good projects."
Gu Xiu was very satisfied with this answer: "So, someone has already sent me a game plan?" β
"It's not." Luo Xiang explained: "After all, boss, you don't need to do such trivial work now, their plans are mainly sent to the director. β
"Oh yes, the director of this company was transferred by Three-Body Games, and you should know the boss."
"Who?" Gu Xiu asked.
"Wang Miao!"
Gu Xiu: ......
"It's not the Wang Miao written in Mr. Liu's novel, but Wang Miao, the director of operations of our three-body game." Looking at the boss's expression, Luo Xiang thought that his boss had misunderstood, and explained it as soon as possible.
The main reason is that Mr. Liu has already started to write a novel called the Three-Body Problem, and Luo Xiang himself has read a little bit and knows that there is a protagonist named Wang Miao in it.
Want.
The boss, as an avid fan of Mr. Liu, must have read the first draft, and it is normal to have some misunderstandings for a while, so I reminded him.
"The name does always give me a sense of disobedience." Gu Xiu laughed, and instantly thought of what Luo Xiang said about Wang Miao.
Teacher Wang Miao in the real world is not a scientist who has conquered nanomaterials, but an authentic game developer, and he also focuses on game operations.
At the beginning, Gu Xiu had engaged in the internal promotion channel of the three-body game, and Wang Miao relied on his outstanding performance.
Gained Gu Xiu's attention.
Gu Xiu remembered that Wang Miao had proposed that he should not be busy with his own games, but should act as an agent for the game first, and what he said at the beginning was the current World of Warcraft.
Though.
In the end, Gu Xiu did not accept his proposal.
But this person's vision and ideas also earned him a position in the top management of the three-body game.
And.
"If I'm not mistaken, Wang Miao quarreled with other management in Three-Body Games?" Gu Xiu asked.
"Yes, boss." Luo Xiang was helpless: "The concept is not consistent, in fact, it is all for the good of the company, but because there are some deviations in the concept, there will be some disagreements occasionally." β
"This time I want to set up a new company, I just said it in the three-body game, Wang Miao signed up directly, and it can be seen that he doesn't seem to be too happy in the three-body game."
"Ideological discord?" Gu Xiu raised his eyebrows.
As the big boss of the company, Gu Xiu naturally doesn't have to care about the psychological condition of every employee in the company, not to mention that there are so many companies under Gu Xiu's hands, and there is no need for this.
All he knew was that Wang Miao had conflicts with other people in the Three-Body Game, and he didn't know much about the others.
"Yes, philosophies are at odds." Luo Xiang nodded, pondered for a moment, and then explained to Gu Xiu:
"The three-body game has always taken the route of high-quality products, and its reputation among the player group is very good, because the strategy of the three-body game has always been to ensure the player's game experience while gaining profits."
"To put it bluntly, although the three-body game also makes money, it is mainly because the player base is large enough and players are willing to spend."
"In Wang Miao's eyes, the three-body game is a waste of its potential, and with such a large player base, the three-body game should not give up collecting money in order to pursue the so-called artistry and reputation."
He feels that game creation is an industry that requires continuous investment, and it is good that one or two games are successful, but no one is sure that such success will be sustained.
"And money, or the money for creation, is the confidence, only when there are enough funds in the account all the time, not forced by life, can we create a better game."
"Therefore, he believes that without affecting the quality of the game, some points should be appropriately added to promote players' consumption of kryptonite."
"Is this a disagreement?" Gu Xiu couldn't help but ask, "Others don't think so?" β
"Not really." Luo Xiang shook his head:
"It's just that others feel that each game has its own different kryptonite points, and supernova combat itself is not a game that focuses on recharging, but the mainstream gameplay is to change various skins and players buy passes."
"And Wang Miao thinks that something that breaks the balance should be added, completely highlighting the difference between krypton players and ordinary players, which can be more effective and stimulate players to spend and recharge."
Hearing this, Gu Xiu understood.
Wang Miao does have ideas, and he knows that for a game company, the most important thing is the ability to make money.
But it's clear.
He was in a bit of a hurry.
And.
Luo Xiang made an understatement, but Gu Xiu estimated that some of the high-level leaders of the Three-Body Game were indeed full of ideals, not bread.
In order to pursue better game quality and higher player reputation.
Fear.
It's not just that you don't want to add some kryptonite modes.
This thing.
In fact, it is impossible to say who is right and who is wrong.
After all, both parties are for the sake of the company, one is more practical, the other is more idealistic, in fact, there is nothing wrong with both parties.
And.
Although there are contradictions, but they are just contradictions, but they do not escalate the contradictions, which is not bad, at least it will not make the three-body game fall apart.
In response to this situation, Gu Xiu not only didn't get angry, but couldn't help but smile.
It's good for a company to be in harmony.
But actually.
Some disagreements are better.
Let alone:
"Originally, I thought that in this new game company, I might have to take a good look at the candidates for the position of director, but now it seems that Wang Miao is the best choice to come to this company."
"Oh?"
Luo Xiang was stunned, and then suddenly understood what Gu Xiu meant: "Boss, what do you mean, this new company, you plan to make a company that looks at profits?" β
"That's it...... A company like the one we did before? β
"No, it's not." Gu Xiu shook his head.
Luo Xiang was strange.
saw Gu Xiu add another sentence: "In terms of page games, we are still too conservative after all, and the environment of the times at that time is different, in fact, we are not doing well." β
This......
Luo Xiang couldn't help but smack his tongue, and he complained a little bit in his heart.
When I played web games, the income was outrageous, although it couldn't be compared to now, but the size of the company was at the beginning, and now it's completely different.
Outcome......
What does the boss mean, the previous income is not high enough?
"You know, why do I call this company that?" Gu Xiu suddenly asked.
"Honestly...... I do not know. β
Luo Xiang cried and laughed dumbly.
The name of the company was chosen by the boss himself, and it is a completely unfamiliar word that does not exist in English.
Luo Xiang didn't quite understand the meaning all along.
But seeing Gu Xiu smiled slightly: "From a Chinese perspective, take a look at the transliteration." β
Yes?
Luo Xiang was stunned, and then spoke softly:
"To...... Slick? β
"No, you're wrong." Gu Xiu smiled slightly, revealing an innocent smile:
"The real recitation should be."
"Krypton !! to the Dead"
