Chapter 171: Cooperation

Fengwu Entertainment Company, in the live broadcast room on the third floor.

"Lin Qiao, you can't do it!"

A long-haired woman pointed to her leather shoes and said, "It's not cleaned here!" When I was live broadcasting, I was seen by the audience, where did I put my face? ”

Lin Qiao hurriedly walked over, apologized and squatted down to help the woman shine her shoes: "Siya, I'm sorry, I'll pay attention next time." ”

In fact, she knows that Siya is more difficult to serve, after all, she is a first-line big anchor, and the first sister of Fengwu Entertainment Company must put on a show, so she takes the things arranged by Siya very seriously, and everything is carefully and carefully, for fear of mistakes.

And this pair of leather shoes, she has also wiped many times, it is impossible to get dirty.

Siya looked at Lin Qiao, who was squatting down to shine her shoes, with a look of disgust, and said, "There is another time?" I want to mention to the company that irresponsible people like you can't stay! ”

She retracted her foot, waved her hand impatiently and said, "Okay, okay, it's time for the live broadcast, you go out quickly!" I'm annoyed when I see you! ”

Lin Qiao nodded again and again and exited the live broadcast room without saying a word.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Siya's live broadcast room, our live game this time is still "The Adventures of Little Snails", last time we played the little snail fell into the sewer, can it escape? Hee-hee, watch me do it! ”

The door slammed shut, and Siya's voice stopped abruptly.

Lin Qiao let out a long sigh, this was the third time she had been blamed by Siya today.

Another assistant standing outside the door complained for Lin Qiao: "Sister Lin Qiao, that Siya is clearly bullying you!" ”

"She doesn't show her shoes during the live broadcast, what does it matter if it's dirty or not? Something is wrong! ”

"It's really hateful to bully us staff members by relying on their status as the first sister of the company!"

"It's disgusting that this kind of person still has fans who like it! Those fans are either blind or stupid! ”

Lin Qiao hurriedly covered the little assistant's mouth and said, "You can't talk nonsense!" Fans don't know the situation either, and they don't know what the anchors they like are like before and after, so we can't blame them. ”

The little assistant pursed her lips and said, "Sister Lin Qiao, your temper is too good, if it were me, I would have quarreled with that woman a long time ago!" ”

Lin Qiao shook his head and said, "No, if you quarrel with the anchor, you will be fired from the company, and I still need this job now." ”

Her younger brother Lin Yi is studying game design at home, and she has no income and relies on her sister to support her, so she can't afford to lose this job that pays well.

Isn't it just being bullied? It's no big deal, and the patience is over.

Lin Qiao always enlightened herself like this in her heart, and she pinned all her hopes on her younger brother, hoping that he would become an excellent designer in the future.

I don't ask my brother how much money he makes, as long as he can realize his dream in his heart and be happy every day.

The little assistant sighed and said, "Sister Lin Qiao, in fact, your conditions are okay, as long as you dress up well, you will definitely not be worse than those professional anchors......"

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't know anything about games, I don't look good, I can't speak, I can't be a streamer." Lin Qiao smiled and said, "Let's go, let's take a break now, and when the Siya live broadcast is over, we still have to come over to work." ”

……

Lin Yi stood in front of the window with the phone, his brows furrowed slightly, but he still nodded: "Okay, I know." ”

Just now it was a call from the program team, and they told Lin Yi that according to the agreement signed when he participated in the program before, the three games designed by Lin Yi during the program, the radio station to which the program team belongs, enjoy a one-year priority and exclusive broadcast right.

The so-called priority exclusive broadcast right means that when someone broadcasts Lin Yi's game live, the radio station can give priority to exclusive broadcasting, and after one year, it can be licensed to other platforms.

Of course, the broadcast fee is a lot, but Lin Yi hates this kind of forced clause.

When he crossed over, the original owner had already signed the relevant agreement, and he could not change it, so he could only be forced to accept it.

"Damn, this world is the same as my world, full of pits dug by capital, and it is impossible to prevent it!"

Lin Yi scolded in his heart: "For the sake of money, these guys are really hollowing out their minds and trying to make money!" ”

"Next time you sign an agreement, you must keep your eyes open!"

He had just put down the phone here, and another call came in, it was Li Hu.

"Father-in-law, are you free now?" Li Hu said on the phone: "I have already contacted a programmer friend for you, and he agreed to help you optimize the game, but he said that he had a condition that he wanted to talk to you face-to-face. ”

Lin Yi nodded: "Yes, I can do it anytime." ”

"Great, then let's be in Longxiangju tonight, I'll have a treat!"

Hanging up the phone again, Lin Yi sat in front of the computer and opened the game forum, and the money in the account increased again, but the increase was significantly reduced, and it was less than one million, but this is also a considerable number.

Now, in the crowdfunding post, many people are asking when they will be able to play the game, and they can't wait.

Lin Yi, as a crowdfunding beneficiary and game designer, naturally wanted to give everyone a satisfactory answer, so he replied in the post: "Thank you for your support, I can understand everyone's urgency, I am also anxious, but game production is a very complicated process, you can't be in a hurry, otherwise, the game will not do well, and everyone will not be happy." ”

"In short, I will push forward the progress of the game production as soon as possible, as long as there is any new progress, I will announce it here immediately, thank you for your support and understanding!"

"Next, here's today's update. I've got in touch with a programmer friend and I'm going to meet tonight to look into the priority games, and I'll let you know when I get the results. ”

……

At six o'clock in the evening, Lin Yi arrived at Longxiangju on time, private room No. 308, where Li Hu and Zhang Lianzhong were already sitting waiting for him.

"Lao Zhang, this is the teacher Lin I told you about, the game design boss!"

Li Hu hurriedly introduced the two: "Mr. Lin, this is my friend Zhang Lianzhong, he is now working in a game production company, and his skills are absolutely excellent!" ”

Lin Yi and Zhang Lianzhong shook hands, the three of them sat down, and the waiter began to serve the food, and soon, a table was filled.

However, the attention of the three was on the next topic, and almost no one moved their chopsticks.

"My team and I have optimized hundreds of games before, such as "Little Dog Shovel Officer", "Little Snail Adventure", "Kung Fu Cockroach" and so on, you can go and see the level of our team."

Zhang Lianzhong introduced the situation of his team, Lin Yi nodded, he was not interested in those garbage games, he only cared about whether the other party could optimize his game in place.

"You've already seen the three games I designed, right?" Lin Yi poured a glass of wine to the other party and said, "Can you optimize it well?" I need to get it to run smoothly on different gaming terminals. ”

"No problem at all!" Zhang Lianzhong looked confident: "We have been doing similar work, and there will be absolutely no problems." ”

"Very good, I don't know much about the remuneration, you can first say a price, and I'll measure it."

Lin Yi really didn't understand the market in this regard, so he asked Zhang Lianzhong to quote by himself, if the price was too high, it could only be shot in two.

"The price of an optimized game is determined by the size of the game and the difficulty of the optimization, which is normally between one million and five million."

Zhang Lianzhong said seriously: "I have seen the game you designed, "Plants vs. Zombies", although you can only see the first level during the live broadcast, but I infer that there should be a lot of levels in the back, and they will change, the volume is not small, and it is also a little difficult to optimize, so it must be close to five million." ”

"As for the later "Resident Evil" and "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", it's the same, after all, your games are all high-quality products, and the optimization price is definitely not low."

Lin Yi calculated in his heart, if it is calculated according to five million, the three games will cost fifteen million.

He now has just over 9 million in his crowdfunding account, which is far from enough, and he can only optimize one.

"Let's just have one, and when the money comes from the sale, I'll optimize the next two games."

Lin Yi thought so in his heart, he was about to speak, when he suddenly heard Zhang Lianzhong say again: "However, Mr. Lin was introduced by my friend, and your game design is so good, I want to make friends with you, so I will give you half the price this time, two and a half million!" ”

Lin Yi hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't use half price, it's still full price, one yard is one yard!" ”

He was worried that if the other party halved the price and the quality would also be halved, it would be worth the loss, and he couldn't afford it.

"Hehe, you don't have to worry, I promise there will be no quality problems!" Zhang Lianzhong seemed to know Lin Yi's worries and hurriedly stated.

Both sides insisted, and in the end, Lin Yi agreed to Zhang Lianzhong's decision, but raised 2.5 million to 3 million.

"By the way, I remember Li Hu said that you have any conditions to talk to me?" Lin Yi thought of this and asked.

Zhang Lianzhong pursed his lips and nodded: "Yes, I hope to reach a long-term cooperative relationship with you, and in the future, your games will be optimized by us, and we guarantee that as long as the lowest remuneration in the industry!" ”

Lin Yi pondered for a moment and said, "First of all, I don't know much about your team's situation, and I need to see the optimized finished product to decide whether to continue to cooperate with you in the future." ”

"Secondly, I'm not sure how many more games I can design, and if I don't do it in a few years, you're probably going to risk losing your job."

Zhang Lianzhong immediately said: "Although you can rest assured about the quality, I dare not say that it is the first in the industry, but it can definitely be ranked in the top three!" ”

"As for the future, no one can say, I don't dwell on it, this industry is originally about eating youth, maybe, you will still be doing it then, and we will all quit."

Lin Yi smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll leave the game optimization to you, I hope you don't let me down." ”

After speaking, he handed over the game memory of "Plants vs. Zombies" to Zhang Lianzhong, who would take the memory back, analyze and disassemble it with professional machines and software, and then optimize it.

In this world, there is no need to worry about piracy, because the anti-theft system of the game software is very powerful, as long as you find illegal copies and cracks, it will directly self-destruct!

Self-destruct means to make the computer device running the game self-destruct!

In addition, the world is very copyright-conscious, and if anyone dares to make pirated copies, it will start in thirty years!

The spread and use of piracy, at least twenty years!

Not only that, but personal property must be confiscated and compensation will be given to the author, as for the amount of compensation, it depends on the author's mood, and the judge is 100% supportive.

Therefore, because the cost of crime is too high, no one dares to break the law, resulting in the almost extinction of piracy in this world.

Lin Yi was so happy when he knew about this at the time, in his world, pirated games, pirated movies, pirated novels...... Innumerable, the state control is not effective, or even ignored, resulting in rampant piracy and miserable authors.

In comparison, the authors of this world are so happy!

Zhang Lianzhong said that optimizing the game is slow work and meticulous work, especially the game designed by Lin Yi, there are too many elements and details, and each one must be carefully optimized, so it will take half a year at the earliest.

"Half a year is half a year, you just have to do it well!"

Lin Yi shook hands with Zhang Lianzhong, and then asked him, do you want to pay a part of the deposit first?

In order to show sincerity, Zhang Lianzhong said that he didn't need it for the time being, he and his team first made a trial version of the game, and if Lin Yi was satisfied, he would pay a deposit.

Lin Yi was very satisfied with Zhang Lianzhong, and felt that this person was still quite reliable, and he should be able to rest assured if he handed over the game to the other party.

Next, the two parties signed a cooperation agreement, which is a contract template found on the Internet, with clear terms and absolutely fairness, and the two can sign it with confidence and boldness.

Looking at the signed contract, Lin Yi sighed in his heart.

"Isn't win-win cooperation normal and a very proper thing? Isn't it good for everyone to work together and work hard to make money? Why do you have to play tricks in the contract, dig big holes, and cheat each other? ”

"Can't people be sincere with each other? Alas...... It's all the fault of capital, this bastard is insatiable in pursuit of profits! ”

After eating, the three of them said goodbye to each other.

Zhang Lianzhong went back to his team to study how to optimize Lin Yi's game.

Li Hu said that he is also going to start designing a new game, called "I Have a Store in the Other World", which is the same as the previous tavern management game, but this time it is a restaurant, and the people from the other world are entertained.

Lin Yi said goodbye to the two and returned to his home, he looked at the news, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"Deutsche Cologne Game Festival?"

He suddenly had an idea that if he could bring his game to the game festival, he would definitely be able to open up the international market!

When the time comes, both domestic and foreign countries will blossom, and the conditions for one billion people to play games will be completed just around the corner!

"However, everything has to wait for Zhang Lianzhong to make the game, at least, to make the trial version."

Lin Yi sighed and lay on the bed, looking forward to the future in his heart, and unconsciously, he fell asleep.

Late at night, Lin Yi suddenly heard the sound of the door opening, he opened the door and found that it was his sister who came back.
