Chapter 250: Faith
"รท Lu, do you want coffee? I'll get you a drink. โ
"No, I'm not sleepy, by the way, how did you complete that requirement?"
"I cleaned it up casually, I haven't had time to run, whatever, I'm tired, I'm fishing."
"Today, I was thinking about meeting Mr. Luo, but I saw a group of colleagues showing photos in the group."
"Now Mr. Luo is estimated to have been called to dinner by those stupid leaders, it's annoying, I hope I can see it tomorrow."
"Hopefully."
The above chat records are from two ordinary employees of the game development team of "Cyber Liaozhai".
It can be seen that neither of them is in the mood for work now, like two corpses that can breathe.
When Mr. Luo, who was informed by the boss Tang Yunpeng of his original intention, that he would be invited to the development department to experience the current internal beta version of "Cyber Liaozhai" with a personal relationship, all the employees of the development team were very excited.
They had been obsessed with this man for a long time.
Not to mention Luo Bai's current outstanding influence in the game industry, the mere fact that he is indeed leading the domestic stand-alone development environment to become better and better is enough to make everyone admire.
Of course, the more important thing is that they actually want to go to work.
In the early days of the development of "Cyber Liaozhai", a professional team of Chuxin once settled in the development department and gave considerable help to the entire game development process as a "consultant".
At this stage, the most talked about thing is the off-duty time of the staff of Chuxin.
Although there are occasional overtime shifts that accommodate normal development work, it can be called a 9-to-5 schedule.
Leave when you arrive, never stay longer.
That overtime is a kind help, not a mandatory.
If it's just early after work, everyone is actually just a little jealous, but the business level of people is really good, and everyone is convinced.
This feeling has been transformed into a yearning for the original company.
Although the management of Tianxing's side was very angry about the behavior of the team on the Chuxin side of "shaking the morale of the army", and even asked the board of directors to make the working hours of the professional team on the Chuxin side be the same as the working hours of the employees of the development department, but in the end it was still not done.
This is the benefit of having someone behind it, and it's not good to envy it.
And all this is to blame on that man.
However, the current understanding of Luo Bai basically comes from some hearsay on the side and on the Internet.
I heard the boss say, how can this man who has made everyone think for so long suddenly come to the front, how can everyone not be excited?
Today, all the employees of the entire development department are like chicken blood, and the work efficiency is naturally needless to say.
But now, the sun has set, and looking at the colorful neon scenery in the city, everyone feels tired.
Even if Mr. Luo didn't say anything to everyone, it would be better to take a look?
When I thought that my gang of people had worked hard all day, and the leaders of the gang of beasts were now eating and drinking spicy food, maybe they were still touching the black silk of other people's wine in a certain businessman, which made me feel cold.
In the end, the pie didn't materialize, and it's no wonder that the entire development department was dead.
Touching the fish is touching the fish, and the big guy is still quite sensitive to the movement of coming and going.
Someone goes to the toilet, takes a look, and continues to touch the fish.
Someone pours coffee, takes a look, and continues to fish.
Someone coughed twice, took a look, and continued to touch the fish.
Stock speculation, chatting, chasing drama.
Normally, this is a very common situation in any company.
But tonight......
As soon as he got up and poured coffee, the buddy's urine was about to come out, and almost half of them looked at him, as if he had made a big mistake.
Just Nima is outrageous! Don't you all have to go to work? Why are you fishing?
Oh, I'm fishing, too, that's fine.
Zou Lecheng also had a headache when he saw the scene in front of him, as Tang Yunpeng's deputy, when Lao Tang was not there, he should take on the responsibility of managing the project team.
But it is understandable that everyone is depressed, and if it is not a last resort, he does not intend to force everyone to work in such a state.
Doing this business with emotions is terrifyingly inefficient.
But more than half of the people in the project are in this state, and he has to say something.
I was just about to get up and say some empty words about chicken soup for the soul, so that everyone at least didn't show too much.
At this time, the appearance of Tang Yunpeng, the No. 1 person in charge of the project department, made Zou Lecheng, who had already lifted his butt three centimeters, sit down again.
The boss came back, and the whole project department was squirming a lot, and then quickly returned to a dead silence.
Everyone's eyes were staring at the computer screen in front of them, and the programmers were pretending to be tapping on the keyboard quickly, and the old fritters next to them rolled their eyes fiercely.
Why do you write programs so fast? What are you pretending to be? It's not all copy-paste?
In the end, he is young and young, and his experience is still too shallow, so he can't pretend.
This scene seems to be where everyone is seriously engaged in their work, just like the high school evening self-study class teacher coming to the classroom.
Luo Bai, who followed Tang Yunpeng, naturally took in the scene in front of him.
Seriously, everyone's small actions can actually be seen clearly, just like the teacher knew what small actions you were doing.
It's just that everyone doesn't debunk it.
He glanced at the old Tang beside him with some teasing, and Tang Yunpeng smiled awkwardly.
Zou Lecheng's buttocks, which he had just put down, lifted it up again at a rapid speed, and hurriedly walked in front of Luo Bai, his eyes full of irrepressible surprise.
it! Shouldn't this order be eating and drinking at public expense in a business restaurant, why did Mr. Luo come?
"Mr. Luo."
Zou Lecheng smiled.
"Old Zou, long time no see."
Luo Bai smiled and beckoned to him.
After a few simple greetings, Luo Bai's main focus was still on the employees in front of him.
The movement here couldn't hide from anyone, and everyone clearly heard the two words in Zou Lecheng's mouth.
However, everyone seemed to have a good heart, and no one stopped what they were doing, but focused on the keyboard.
Well...... At least on the surface.
Luo Bai saw a lot of more obscure eyes shooting towards him.
The keyboards in some people's hands are about to smoke, and the cliff is sharing with others that Luo Bai actually came to the development department of "Cyber Liaozhai".
Tang Yunpeng also knew that it was time for him to go out, coughed lightly twice, and raised his right hand:
"Let's put aside all the work at hand first, and I'll announce something."
I'm a stupid beep!
Luo Bai silently added a sentence to Old Tang in his heart, and looked straight ahead with a peaceful smile on his face.
Today, Lao Tang called him over to not only test the game, but also to give the development brothers the idea of beating the chicken, Luo Bai naturally had to show his attitude.
Everyone looked up in unison at this moment.
Some people deliberately want to keep their faces peaceful, but their faces are red and they can't hide their excitement; Some people are looking straight at this side, and they can't wait to get closer; Someone even waved directly and generously at Luo Bai, excitedly like a monkey only seeking to mate.
"Brothers, live up to expectations! I promised everyone to bring Mr. Luo to you, and I did it! โ
Lao Tang has also been in this industry for so many years, and he naturally has a hand in project management ability.
I also know that what to say now can best mobilize everyone's atmosphere.
Luo Bai didn't pull his crotch here, and waved directly at everyone:
"Hello everyone, I'm Luo Bai, it's a pleasure to meet you."
In an instant, the entire development department was boiling.
"Mr. Luo! Mr. Luo! Mr. Luo! โ
"I'm super! Lo! โ
"Roselle! Roselle! Roselle! โ
The applause and cheers resounded in this development department, as if the entire building was going to be torn down.
The employees in the development department in front of me are no different from the players who are beginners.
No, it would be more accurate to say that they are also players.
finally waited for everyone's cheers to subside, Luo Bai also said jokingly:
"It's so late, let's not make too much noise, you're really not afraid that Old Tang will be jealous of me for wearing small shoes for you."
Old Tang also pretended to have a straight face, raised his chin slightly, and looked like I was unhappy and was about to make you crazy overtime.
It's just that this expression still didn't stop in the end, and he grinned directly.
The audience also burst into laughter.
Looking at the relationship between our boss and Mr. Luo, most of the people present knew it.
Old Don jealous? The leaders above are jealous, right?
The people present also put away the smiles on their faces and turned to look at Luo Bai with a focused gaze.
Luo Bai also ended the hot jokes and turned to everyone with seriousness:
"The project "Cyber Liaozhai" has been more than two years since it was established, and if you count its predecessor "Cyber Fengshen", it has been three years.
This project is the first cooperation project between Chuxin and Tianxing, and it is also the project I have been staring at.
I attach great importance to this project, and when Don has a new breakthrough in this game, he will also discuss and communicate with me with great interest.
Among all the people present, there were old employees who had been working in Fengshen at the beginning, and new employees who joined the project later.
It can be said that I see everyone's efforts. โ
Speaking of this, Luo Bai turned his head and glanced at Tang Yunpeng beside him:
"Sometimes Don would complain to me, he said he was very confused.
I don't know if this project will be successful in the end, I don't know if this game will be welcomed by players, and I don't know if there will be a tomorrow.
But in everyone's eyes, he always has to maintain confidence in the project, and he will definitely sell it in the end.
He had to give everyone confidence, but he didn't have confidence himself, so he had to come with me to find confidence. โ
Everyone present slightly hooked the corners of their mouths, and they were very emotional in their hearts.
Everyone is actually quite confused, and the stars are not as good as the original intention.
The development department of "Cyber Liaozhai" is the pioneer of stand-alone games in the entire company, and it is cannon fodder to say that it is not good.
In the field of online and mobile games, there is already a mature profit formula that can no longer be mature, and they are an outlier among the company.
A lot of people are talking about how if the project loses in the end, all of them will lose their jobs.
Who wants to be unemployed?
can only numb yourself with the idea of "it's a big deal, I will work for a day and get a day's salary", and do it hard.
It's really bad, I feel unwilling, to be able to devote myself to this industry, don't you say that everyone has to be a world-class game developer, at least you have to have a little highlight in your career, right?
For example, he participated in the development of a game with "million sales", "popular game" and "phenomenal work".
Don't look at the fame of "The Legend of Mountains and Seas Cultivating Immortals" a few years ago, it has completely stinked on the Internet, but the programmers who participated in the development are actually very good in the industry now.
Rotten and unwilling, hard work but no direction.
All day long is self-internal friction.
That is, there is Lao Tang whipping in the back, and he is also the first, otherwise everyone's mentality is about to collapse.
Seriously, it's more comfortable to find a small studio to mix around than to be in Tianxing.
The management here is too rigid.
"Old Don asked me to give him confidence, but I don't know how to give him confidence.
I've also had a stage where I'm confused and dying, and I've had works like Wanda that aren't accepted by the vast majority of players.
So I asked him, don't say you have confidence in the future of games, do you have confidence in games?
He said yes, he would be able to do it well.
Actually, that's enough. โ
Luo Bai looked at everyone present with a smile and spread out his hands,
"Whether Cyber Liaozhai can succeed in making money in the end is not something you should worry about.
What you need to pay attention to is always the quality of the game itself, even if the game loses to death in the end, isn't there still a star for everyone to cover, and you don't have to lose a penny. โ
Everyone was amused by Luo Bai.
Tang Yunpeng was also laughing, but he didn't smile.
It's numb, Luo is not authentic, why don't you work in Tianxing, it must have nothing to do with you if you lose.
"After more than two years of hard work, there is still a result, and the development of the game is now coming to an end.
As you know, the purpose of my visit today is to participate in the internal testing of the game.
After the test, I definitely can't give you an answer about whether this game can be popular in the end, whether it can be a big hit.
But I believe that everyone's efforts are meaningful.
The future of single-player gaming is limitless, and you are the future of the industry. โ
The applause lasted for a long time.
Looking at the people who had regained their fighting spirit, Tang Yunpeng had a heavy sense of responsibility in his heart.
Mr. Luo's words just now, if the game is done in the end, it will be a good story.
If the game doesn't get right, it's chicken soup.
Although Luo Bai himself may not care much about this thing, Old Tang now feels a little like being roasted on the fire.
Forget it, it's not bad for this fire.
Let's start with today's core link.
The experiential part about "Cyber Liaozhai".
Luo Bai, who followed Tang Yunpeng, is looking forward to it, a "Witcher 3" plot-driven gameplay of the cyber chat story, which is really exciting.
Thank you for the monthly ticket support of Huainan Luozhi!
Thank you!
