Super entertainment red envelope

Chapter 737 Game studio!
Survival games in this world became popular in the middle of 18, which is much later than the other world.

And according to the chats of those stars in the entertainment group, the survival games in another world have begun to go out of style at the end of 18 with the various krypton gold experiences after the birth of the national server. Discussion is almost nonexistent.

But in this world, survival games are on the rise, and there are many domestic imitations of survival games, but only mobile games and web games, the quality of mobile games is not bad, and web games are purely trickery, not good at all.

Li Zhifan couldn't accept the task of radio and television. It was even harder than asking him to make a movie, because he was doing things for the country.

Therefore, in the next week, in addition to preparing for concerts in various places, I will contact game companies at home and abroad through various channels.

Li Zhifan is also very open-minded. Anyway, the radio and television have already made plans, so just implement it by yourself. Contact a small game studio in China with a complete team, and then recruit some talents in the industry, and contact a powerful game studio abroad. Or a mature team, the two sides cooperate to develop, but the operation right is still in the hands of the Chinese.

After half a month.

Chengdu.

This is the sixth stop of Li Zhifan's domestic tour.

I finally came to the city that I sang in this song but haven't visited much.

The first day was a rehearsal. After the rehearsal, Li Zhifan and his accompanying team started a journey of eating and drinking.

The snacks in Chengdu are civilized throughout the country. Li Zhifan is not a person who can eat spicy food, but when faced with the food in Chengdu, he will also welcome spicy food.

The dazzling array of snacks in the night market made the whole team enjoy themselves. They walked and stopped, ate and drank all the way, and finally chose a small stall with a small facade to sit down directly.

"Brother, come here!"

Outside, the team members spoke in unison, calling Li Zhifan the big brother.

But the title of Big Brother has changed a long time ago, especially in games, Big Brother refers to cheats.

So a group of young people who were eating and drinking at the next table heard that the eldest brother was long and the eldest brother was short, so they couldn't help but turned their heads and took a look. In the middle of the night, wearing sunglasses and a hat always feels weird.

"Look at that man!"

A young man at the head of the table pouted his lips at Li Zhifan, "It's so strange, dressed like this, why is he here to eat skewers!"

"Stop talking! Maybe it's the boss somewhere!"

Another young man said, "Hey, director, our sales data for this week is so messy. We didn't even make it into the top 53 in the major mobile app stores. The best result was [-] in the Touch store. Sigh! !"

"Let's eat first, go back and continue to optimize, but find a way to shrink the installation package. At present, most Chinese people's mobile phones are already very high-end, especially those who love to play games. Our game optimization must be improved. In terms of content, check the BUG again."

"Director, Qiulu wants to buy this game from us, or... let's just sell it. It has been in operation for half a year, and the income is not enough to invest. We haven't paid wages for three months, and the investors have changed. Two..."

"Stop complaining and eat yours!"

The tone of the room manager's speech seemed to be worried, and he looked at the beer box at his feet, which was the cheapest kind in the night market, presumably the work was really hard to do.

Li Zhifan had heard their conversation.

So he snapped his fingers at the shop proprietress, and after saying a few words, he took a glass of beer and walked towards the table.

"Everyone, talk about five yuan?"

As Li Zhifan said, he pushed his sunglasses to his forehead, pulled up a chair and sat down with a smile.

These people just wanted to question the purpose of the visitor, but they were all dumbfounded when they saw that it was Li Zhifan.

"Shh!"

Li Zhifan smiled, put down his sunglasses again, and asked, "What game did you develop?"

"Lee, Lee, Lee..."

A young man on the table was stuttering, and when Li Zhifan asked about their game, he immediately smiled and said, "Ah, it's an RTS game, that is, a real-time strategy game, but it's a pity that all MOBA and survival games are played on the market now, and There are more and more variants of the game, without innovation, it is impossible to attract new users.”

"Oh!"

Li Zhifan said, "What's it called? I'll download one later to play!"

"It's called Castle Battle!"

Their room chief said, "If Brother Fan thinks it's fun, can you send us a quick blog recommendation?"

"it is good!"

Li Zhifan nodded, "Then who is the person in charge? Leave me a contact number! If you post a quick blog, I will notify you at that time."

"OK, OK! Please leave my phone number! I am the head of the game studio, our name is Orange Elephant Game, and my name is Chen Cheng!"

The young man left his phone number, and watched Li Zhifan save his number in his phone before he felt relieved.

"Okay, I think the game is fun later, I'll find you guys again!"

Li Zhifan raised his glass, had a drink with these young people, then got up and returned to his seat.

At this time, the proprietress brought up a plate of skewers, and said with a smile: "Eat thi, eat more!"

"Uh……"

Chen Cheng showed embarrassment and embarrassment, "We don't seem to want it?"

"That gentleman ordered it for you!"

The proprietress pointed to Li Zhifan, and said, "He paid for your table, he said he was a treat."

"what?"

The young people at this table were all stunned. Looking at Li Zhifan, they picked up their wine glasses and came over to toast one by one.

Li Zhifan reluctantly agreed, and said, "Eat what you eat, don't make a big fuss, or I won't be able to slip away for a while."

"Haha, okay, let's go back and eat!"

How could the people at this table sit there honestly, kept looking towards Li Zhifan, raised their glasses to show their eyes when they met each other, and they had almost eaten everything on the table, and they still refused to leave, sipping silently. Bottle of beer, where to sit.

And this time is when the business in the store is booming. The proprietress stood aside and watched for a long time, so she was naturally unhappy.

In the end, it was Li Zhifan who ordered something for them again, but after the skewers went up, Chen Cheng ran over and said, "Brother Fan, don't order for us anymore, we really can't eat anymore, let's sit for a while and leave."

"Okay, then sit down, we are almost there."

Li Zhifan stood up, "We'll leave first, you guys had fun!"

Seeing that Li Zhifan and the others were about to leave, these young people stopped sitting down and turned to ask the proprietress: "We haven't brushed up the skewers yet, can we stop?"

The proprietress said: "It's all settled, you want to refund, and I have to refund you!"

"That……"

"Pack it up!"

Li Zhifan said to the proprietress, "Pack it up for these younger brothers."

"Row!"

The proprietress is very straightforward. After selling things and then taking them back, they are not fresh at all, especially the food.

"gone!"

Li Zhifan patted Chen Cheng on the shoulder, then snapped his fingers to the team members, and the group left the small shop quickly.

On the way back, Li Zhifan downloaded the "Battle of the Castle".

During this period of time, he contacted many small domestic game companies, game studios, and small teams that independently develop games, etc., and Li Zhifan has basically played all of their games. , will be left by him to continue the evaluation, if it doesn't work, just delete the game and delete the phone number.

This night, Li Zhifan devoted more than half of his time to this game, building houses, mining resources, producing minions, and busy fighting with the opposing faction.

It’s not how fun this game is, because this kind of game existed ten years ago, and Li Zhifan was very addicted to it at that time, but now this game has made him find his feelings. In that nostalgic game mode, the production level is also high Very high, character design, scene design are also very good.

Perhaps it is because of some types of reasons that this game is not profitable.

The next morning, Li Zhifan woke up after three hours of sleep, called Chen Cheng directly, and asked him to meet tomorrow.

Chen Chenggang stayed up all night and was about to go to bed, when he received a call from Li Zhifan, he was so excited that he agreed repeatedly.

That night was Li Zhifan's concert, which lasted for 3 hours. In addition to the fixed playlist, he sang encore songs for almost half an hour, 7 songs in a row, which spoiled the happiness of the fans.

That night Li Zhifan restrained his thoughts of playing games, had a good sleep, woke up the next morning, and met Chen Cheng in the hotel room.

He also came with a small partner from the studio named Xu Nan.

The two of them brought up a package of fruits, as if they were meeting each other.

"sit down!"

Li Zhifan called his assistant to bring over a few bottles of mineral water, which were imported from Germany, costing more than 200 a bottle.

The two of them probably hadn't seen this thing before, so they unscrewed the gulp and drank it. They just glanced at the label after drinking it, and didn't say much.

"Brother Fan, have you played the game? How is it?"

Chen Cheng greeted him with a smile, "Are you planning to recommend it to us?"

"Played, played all night, very good!"

Li Zhifan said, "But I came to you not for this game, but because I plan to make a new game, a survival gun game, are you interested in joining?"

"what?"

Chen Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and then understood instantly, "Brother Fan, you want to start your own game company? Want to recruit us?"

"That's what you mean!" Li Zhifan nodded, "I think you have done a good job of optimizing this mobile game, but the game mode is no longer suitable for the current game environment. Only those players with a nostalgic complex will play it, but I don’t play often, I believe you must have the statistics of the number of people who are online at the same time!”

"Well, it's true that this data is not very good, but we started designing this game when we were in college. It took us six years, but the game market actually needs a long-term vision. Everything has changed in six years. For those games that are rising now, either the development team is efficient and can produce a follow-up game in three months, or the designers are forward-looking and have designed a new model a few years ago. There is no one to contend with."

"However, Brother Fan! You said you want to make a survival game? There are already many such games. There are two or three mature end-games and more than a dozen mobile games. If you want to seize the market, it will be too late!"

"not late!"

Li Zhifan said, "In fact, the lifespan of a game is only one year. After one year, new games will appear to divide the market, but after one year, games that can continue to retain people are the real good ones." The game, the game I want to design, is somewhat different from other survival games, the specific differences, I will talk to you slowly after you join in."

"How many studios does Brother Fan plan to incorporate?"

Chen Cheng was a little tempted, but not because of Li Zhifan, but because he really wanted to change his way of working. He has been losing money in self-employment, and maybe it is not a bad choice to work for others. After all, he led his classmates to start a business before leaving school. , Everyone has no part-time job experience. Seeing those who work for other game companies with high salaries and benefits, and give a quarter of their energy, they don't have to worry about precarity. It's really good.

"It's just your family at the moment, but there will be more in the future!"

Li Zhifan said, "Because the main R&D team of this game is a foreign game company, but they are outsourced, and you need to participate in the entire R&D process. The subsequent maintenance and operation are also yours, oh, it should be said that it is ours. The game company will do it."

"That's it!"

Chen Cheng looked at his little friend Xu Nan, and they hesitated again.

Their hearts are higher than the sky, and their lives are thinner than paper. They are talking about their current mood. After hearing Li Zhifan's plan, they thought it was Li Zhifan's idea. It is said that it is participating in it, but in fact, it may not even be considered an assistant, but a student watching from the sidelines.

And the core of the game, if the main R&D team doesn't reveal it, the follow-up maintenance will be a big problem. The key is how much Li Zhifan is willing to spend to do it.

But if I think about it the other way around, if I can really work with a foreign team, I might be able to learn a lot. Even if I start my own business again in the future, I will have new experience.

After thinking about it, Chen Cheng said: "Brother Fan, although I am the head of the studio, the studio belongs to all of us. I can't be the master. Otherwise, I'll go back and have a meeting to discuss with everyone, and then I will discuss it with you. Give you an answer?"

"it is good!"

Li Zhifan had no objection, and said, "I can give them a relief here. As long as they agree, everyone in the studio can stay. Even in the future, when the company is established, the name Orange Elephant will still be used, and your team will It will be distributed to the company's shares, so strictly speaking, it is not coming to work for me or the company, understand?"

"I know!"

Chen Cheng nodded his head, he had already talked about this point, he had clearly stated the future treatment and environment so clearly, he actually did not refuse at all, because no matter how bad the situation is, can it be worse than it is now?
