Chapter 171: Is the Studio Closed Down (1st Update)

The game's icon is on a white background with a black text: "Word." ”

"Words" is the name of this game.

Although it seems simple, this website is a platform for the contest to be showcased to the outside world, and if it is not a game with enough highlights, then it is impossible to be released.

Tournaments require highlights, but completion is also a must, and unless there are some aspects of the game that stand out, they won't be shown here.

And the icon of this game looks very simple, there is no vertical painting in the game introduction, and even the introduction only has one sentence "The world of words", which makes people seem to see a cold game maker, silently sending the game up.

Clicking on the game, Qiu Yu saw that the screen was black, the title of the game appeared, and the huge text "word" appeared, and then it became bigger and bigger.

In this huge "word", there is actually a large number of other words, and these small words are then shattered and scattered like raindrops, leaving only one "one" on the screen.

The visual effects shown at the beginning are quite shocking, although it is just a bunch of ordinary words, Qiu Yu can feel a blooming self-consciousness coming towards him. The author of the game changed his previous coldness and fully displayed his ideas, which brought a strong impact.

And that's where the game really begins.

Looking at the flickering "one", Qiu Yu dragged the text, and saw that the "one" began to be dragged out continuously, and then copied itself.

Later, when the ten "ones" appeared, these ten "ones" suddenly combined with each other and turned into a new character "ten".

Seeing this scene, Qiu Yu muttered to himself: "Tao gives birth to one, life to two, two to three, and three to all things." ”

Trying to drag the previous one in different ways, Qiu Yu found that through different dragging methods, different Chinese characters and numbers can actually be combined.

And that's just the beginning.

Dismantling the ten, the original ten was directly split into "one" and "δΈ¨", and the appearance of new strokes allowed him to combine more words, and further expanded the words that could be combined.

And in the middle period, the noun appeared.

"Wood", "and" and "inch" can be turned into trees, and after the tree is cut down, "leaves", "branches" and "roots" can be obtained, and the slight combination of "leaves" is "day", and the appearance of "day" fills this black world with light, and gives birth to "day" and "night"

As he continued to try, Qiu Yu found that he had formed more and more nouns, although some nouns had no practical use, but the words with practical uses changed their form through deformation and other means, so that it seemed to have a mutual reflection relationship with his corresponding nouns.

Two hours later, the whole world finally shines brightly, mountains and rivers, the sun, the moon and the stars, all kinds of things that are commonplace in daily life, at this time, they are restored one by one in the game, so that Qiu Yu feels the novelty at the same time, and also has some insights.

This game, Alain, they will never be able to play.

It's a very personal game, and it's also a game that fully shows your character. The gameplay of the game and the artistic conception of the text itself are fused with each other, and finally a game that only Chinese people can play and understand was born.

The Taoist ideas contained in it are also quite reasonable, not forcibly instilled, but through the combination of words, it finally brings a mysterious and indescribable wonderful atmosphere.

Combine most of the nouns and the game is over.

After the game, Qiu Yu leaned back in his chair and began to reminisce about the feelings brought by this game.

Although it is still a little rough in many places, the artistic conception of the whole game has been in place, and the gameplay of the game has been complete, which is a very good game.

The author of the game should be a producer who has studied the gameplay, and if it is from the perspective of the game as a whole, he is slightly better, but in terms of gameplay, the other party should be much better than himself.

After some comparison, Qiu Yu found that except for his and this author's games, other games are basically nothing to look at, and the final first and second places should be produced between him and the other party.

After playing the game "Words", Qiu Yu also had some new inspiration.

Closing the game, opening the documentation, he opens his game and takes a fresh look.

"Flying Sword Asks" is the game he made this time, but it is not the game he wants to make the most.

According to his idea, after he set up a studio, he would use the flying sword as his stepping stone to make his studio famous.

But what he really wanted to do was something else.

That's a game he wanted to make when he was in college.,The gameplay of the game is relatively simple.,There are kryptonite components but not much.,The main payment direction is content payment.,Players can get materials through the game.,You can also buy resources with krypton.。

Although the gameplay is simple, the depth inside is very high, and the paid depth is not large, but it can guarantee a monthly retention of about 10%, which also satisfies his idea of hoping that a game can operate for a long time.

In the past, this kind of game was not realistic, because the number of monthly retention of 10% was very scary, and it was basically a hit, and the monthly retention of normal games was 3%~5%.

His career plan has been arranged, and now everything is ready, only the east wind is owed. As long as he finishes in the top three, then he is eligible to form a team of his own and start his own journey.

But will it really go this way?

Qiu Yu felt that his temples were beating hard, and he always felt a little uneasy.

And this premonition turned into reality three days later.

The results of the competition will appear on this day, but Tianyi will communicate with the individual in advance to see the situation, and then make a decision.

Qiu Yu's "Flying Sword Asks" won first place by a narrow margin, while "Words" won second place.

The third place is planned by an unknown company, and the things made are decent, but they are quite insightful in terms of values.

The audition part of this competition is selected by each producer, and the final is decided by the players and judges, and the authority of the game is guaranteed.

However, just the day before receiving the prize, the problem really arises.

That afternoon, Zhang Ping specially called Qiu Yu to the office, and then said to Qiu Yu: "I'm going to the headquarters." ”

Qiu Yu looked at Zhang Ping in confusion, not knowing why the other party deliberately asked him to talk about it.

"You cooperated with the localization of "Magic Dynasty" before, and then participated in the competition and won awards, so it stands to reason that you should be assigned a production team. However, the head office suddenly transferred me back, and the new branch president should not recognize these promises, so I can only tell you in advance. ”

After hearing this, Qiu Yu felt a huge sense of loss coming to him.

It's like a kick at the door, just waiting for cheers, but I didn't expect the referee to suddenly blow the ball offside, and the sense of loss in the middle can be imagined.

Although his heart was full of regret, Qiu Yu quickly cheered up and said with a smile: "It's okay, is there anything else?" ”

"I'm going to fire you."

"What?"

"Before dismissal, raise your salary first, so that you can get half a year's compensation, which is about 180,000. I am personally ready to fund some of your start-up capital, and I have also contacted me and expressed my willingness to invest in you. Add to that the prize money of the competition, the prize money for the completion of the project, etc., which should be enough for you to open a personal studio. ”

Seeing that Qiu Yu wanted to speak, Zhang Ping pressed it, and then said: "I talked to Huang Ping two days ago, and I was deeply touched by the other party's recent situation. Big companies have the security of big companies, but these are the turbulent times in the gaming industry, and it's better for smaller studios to transform. You've learned enough in Tianyi in this time, it's time to go out and make a breakthrough. And I've long seen that you kid is full of backbones, and you definitely have your own ideas, don't you? ”

Thinking of his true purpose, Qiu Yu smiled.

Zhang Ping also read Qiu Yu's meaning, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you know that you have your own ideas." Let me ask you, would you like it? If you don't want to, don't say anything about what happened here today. If you want, I'll give you a raise. ”

"Can I go back and think about it?"

Zhang Ping looked at Qiu Yu and said helplessly: "You have already thought about it, what do you want to sell with me?" Say it! ”

"That'...... Thank you Mr. Zhang for taking care of me during this time. ”

"Don't thank me, thank you for taking care of you, I didn't take care of you much. Alright, let's get ready for the handover. ”

Just as Qiu Yu was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something, looked at Zhang Ping and asked, "Mr. Zhang, will the second place go to receive the award?" ”

"Why do you ask this?"

"It always feels like he's not coming."

"Indeed, the other party did not agree." Zhang Ping rubbed his temples and said, "The other party only left a phone number, and after calling and telling the other party the news of the award, the other party just said 'I know', and then hung up." Since the other party does not want to receive the prize, the third place will be postponed to the second place, and the person behind will be replaced. ”

"That's a pity. By the way, and one last question, who recommended my game? ”

"Like "Words", they were all recommended by Fangcheng. They have a really good eye, and the games they recommend are very bright. It can only be said that the excellent team vision is really good. ”

"Indeed."

Zhang Ping's speed was quite fast, and as soon as he finished raising his salary, Qiu Yu was fired.

The next payday of six months' salary will come, and the compensation of 180,000 yuan, together with Qiu Yu's previous accumulation, should be able to make a demo.

Other colleagues found it incredulous to hear the news of Qiu Yu's dismissal.

After all, his thinking has always been okay, and the little games he handles are very popular, and it is hard to imagine that a talent like him will be expelled.

And in addition to him, some previous active and idealistic planners were also fired one by one.

The specific inside story is unknown, but everyone is wondering if they offended Zhang Ping and ended up with such an end.

Because of this incident, Zhang Ping's reputation began to decline, but Zhang Ping, who was already going to the headquarters, didn't care.

Holding his luggage, Qiu Yu left Tianyi.

For the first time since joining Tianyi, he got off work at 5 p.m., and he was still a little uncomfortable when he saw the sun outside.

Suddenly, the phone rang, it was Alain's.

After connecting the phone, Qiu Yu heard the other party say in broken Chinese: "You resigned?" ”

"Sort of."

"But you ......"

"It's a bit wrong to quit just after winning. But this is the path I chose, you don't have to care. What about you, when are you going to go back to Gaul? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Look at the back. ”

Qiu Yu turned his head suspiciously, and found that Alain, a handsome blonde guy, was squatting not far behind.

Seeing Qiu Yu turn his head, he raised the shopping bag in his hand and said to Qiu Yu: "I bought wine, and we will get drunk tonight to celebrate your first step towards your dream." ”

"You're not going to work tomorrow?"

"The work came to an end for the time being, and I took annual leave. The others went back to accompany their wives, and I'm fine, so I'll come to accompany you. ”

Qiu Yu took a step back: "You won't be ......"

"I'm not British!"

"That's fine."

Relieved, Qiu Yu walked together with the other party, and then saw a few people walking out of the opposite building.

The young man led by him was very eye-catching, making Alain on the side look like an ordinary person.

Seeing each other, Alain exclaimed, and then asked, "That person...... It should be Fang Cheng, right? ”

"Hmm."

"Want to say hello?"

"No, we don't know each other."

Qiu Yu turned around and wanted to leave, but when he passed by Fang Cheng, Fang Cheng suddenly stopped, then looked at Qiu Yu and asked, "Are you the author of "Flying Sword Asks", Qiu Yu?" ”

Qiu Yu's footsteps stopped suddenly.

He felt his heart beat fast, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "It's me." ”

"I'm Fang Cheng from Fang Cheng Studio, I like your game very much, and I can feel the very good gameplay in it."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Thank you. ”

"You're welcome, goodbye."

After finishing speaking, Fang Cheng left directly and did not stay any longer.

He didn't have much thought, he just saw Qiu Yu by chance and wanted to tell the other party how he felt.

And Qiu Yu also turned around and continued walking, and then heard Alan on the side say, "I thought you would recommend yourself and try to join Fangcheng Studio." ”

"No, I don't have that idea."

"Eh, don't you like each other's games a lot?"

Qiu Yu showed a relaxed smile: "Yes, so I want to be a good opponent more." ”

Looking at Qiu Yu, Alan didn't quite understand the other party's thoughts, but he also decided to respect the other party's choice.

Raising the wine and ingredients in his hand, he said excitedly: "Don't worry about anything else, let's have a good meal together." Tonight I will show you what authentic Gallic cuisine is. ”

Before eating, Qiu Yu said that he was looking forward to it.

But after eating, Qiu Yu said, you better make me something inauthentic.

Who said Gallic food is delicious!

Just when Qiu Yu was striding towards his dream, some people had the courage to bring their resumes and works to the downstairs of Fangcheng Studio for their dreams and survival.

He took a few deep breaths, stood downstairs in Fang Cheng's studio, took a deep breath, and then slowly moved into the building and began to advance towards the third floor.

As she walked, she muttered to herself, "Lin Nan, it's okay, you can do it." Your work already has the strength of second place, and you can successfully apply. ”

Constantly cheering herself up, she finally overcame the urge to run away and stepped onto the last step.

Then I saw that the door of the company was closed, and there was no one inside, only a three-flowered cat raised its head and looked out vigilantly.

After staring at Sanhua Cat for a while, Lin Nan lowered his head and typed text in the search bar of his mobile phone: "Has Fangcheng Studio closed down?" ”

After all, how could a game company leave work before nine o'clock?
