I play games in Zongman World

"Yes, I have."

Sayuri Sawamura said affirmatively, "There is a screenwriter in our club, who is a junior from my university. Although he is not the top in the industry, he is still good. He has published novels before. It's just that he won't do this after getting married. Alright, I'm just writing fan game scripts in my club to kill time. Why, Shiba, do you want to find a screenwriter to learn from?"

"Well, I have this idea."

Shi Yu nodded, "It's not suitable to say the content of the project right now, and my words have also been added. I am the chief screenwriter of the game. According to the outline given by Mr. Chen, the plot of the game is very large. I am worried that I am a little I can’t control it, so I want to learn more from my colleagues.”

"This, yes!"

Sayuri Sawamura immediately agreed, "I still have great confidence in our club. Mr. Yichen will definitely entrust us with outsourcing, and let the editor of our club chat with you when the time comes."

After talking here, I also finished watching the work exhibition there.

Yichen returned the laptop to Sayuri Sawamura, and then took out a stack of contracts from his backpack.

"Aunt Sayuri, the technology of your club is really good. As long as you can maintain the quality of your works, I would be happy to ask you to outsource some of the projects. This is the outsourcing contract I went to a lawyer this morning. You can take a look first, including The quotes are all in there too."

"I'm well prepared."

After receiving the contract, Sayuri looked at it immediately. Before chatting, she could relax a bit, but now she has to read the contract more carefully.

Even if the two parties know each other and have a good relationship, business negotiations must be rigorous.

It took 10 minutes for Sayuri Sawamura to read the contract carefully from beginning to end.

"Well, the content of the contract is fine. It is also a standard outsourcing business contract. The quotation is also the normal market in the industry, and it is even a little higher." Looking up at Yi Chen, Sayuri Sawamura smiled, "Yi Chen Jun was sure before, our club can meet your request?"

"Of course not."

At this time, Yi Chen took out another contract from his bag, "If egoistic-lily's ability does not meet my requirements, then I will take out another contract, and the price of this contract will be lower. The project entrusted to you is relatively simple in the game."

"That's it, I understand."

Sawamura Sayuri tapped her chin with her slender fingers, and made a decision, "We accept this project, let's sign the contract. Tomorrow afternoon after school, Yi Chen-kun and Ying Lili will come to our club to get acquainted and confirm the next steps." work arrangements."

"can."

In this way, the two parties directly signed the contract, sealed the chapter, and confirmed the cooperation.

With outsourcing, everyone can relax in the development of the project. The region can divide some easy and simple parts, and the studio does not need to manage it, just do those important parts.

After talking about the matter, Yichen and the three planned to go back. Ying Lili didn't follow to the studio, but went back with her mother. She didn't go to the club for a while, so she just went to have a look.

Sitting in Hazuki Shizuku's car, the three returned to the studio.

On the way back, Ye Yueshizuku said: "Mr. Yichen, how much is the map going to be outsourced? I know that the first map in the real world is going to be outsourced. What about the palace areas?"

"We will choose one or two pieces with less obvious style requirements, and we will give them as templates after we make a few, and then try to let them do it. It is mainly some monsters, NPCs and impression space. Impression space really does not need us I did it by myself, after all, it is mainly an area for side missions, so it doesn’t require very demanding level design capabilities.”

The main characters, whether they are the protagonists or the villains, can be used as supporting roles and some important characters in the plot. These Yi Chen intends to produce them in-house. In addition, a large number of fringe NPCs and some monsters are directly outsourced.

The modeling part was outsourced, but what about the music?

Sitting in the back row with Shi Yu, Yi Chen couldn't help thinking.

Well... I couldn't find the original P5 musician Shoji Meguro, and there was no suitable candidate.

So, in the past few days, I should study the knowledge of music scores first, and then write out several classic songs in the game.

It's just that Yi Chen has never learned music-related knowledge, so he doesn't know if he can learn it well, and singing by himself is average.

See Sayuri Sawamura tomorrow, and ask if there are any music companies or musicians I know.

A big project with few people is indeed a lot of trouble.

This year, I will do some initial content. After returning to China next year, I can consider expanding the scale.

Chapter 196 Music Matters

Back in the studio in the afternoon, Yichen took Hazuki Shizuku and Yagami Ko, and the three of them started to study together, and divided some of the less important modeling work in the development project, and planned to hand it over to egoistic-lily for outsourcing tomorrow. make.

Seeing the lack of such a large number of work items, Iori Yagami breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Without most of the relatively simple but boring content, we can concentrate on completing the most important parts. The game The process is so long, there are several large hall maps, each with its own characteristics, the design is still very complicated."

Yi Chen copied all the relevant content to the mobile hard drive, and then said: "Take your time, don't worry about the palace, let's make the core system first, we need to see the expressiveness of the battle first."

Yichen has already done almost the battle UI. Just complete a series of combat actions, design some monsters, and make relevant music, then you can simply test it.

In the past, people have always said that the most important thing in rpg games is the plot, character design and character development system, and then the design sense of maps and mazes in adventures.

And now they want to develop Persona, in addition to the above-mentioned clichés, Yi Chen also wants to make breakthroughs in music and UI.

Now is the 21st century. Compared with the game industry in the 90s, people now have more diverse ways to access all kinds of information, and the quantity is extremely large.

Under the scouring of various information flows, the old model cannot give most players a sense of freshness.

The core of traditional rpg games is basically impossible to change, so the way to do it is to wrap a series of modern and popular elements outside the traditional game core, so that traditional turn-based games and long-term The plot of the game has become more dynamic and more people want to try.

There is nothing to learn from these new things, only the memories of P5 in Yichen's mind.

However, as long as Persona is successfully developed, Yi Chen believes that it can definitely inspire companies in the industry who want to develop rpg games.

After confirming the outsourced project, Shizuku Hazuki went back, and Hikari Yagami went out with her, and the two were going to call Ron Toyama to have dinner outside together.

Yi Chen and Shi Yu returned home, and they planned to have dinner at Shi Yu's house today.

There was still some time, Yichen went straight back to the bedroom, turned on the computer and began to search for basic music-related knowledge.

He messed up the music lessons at school, and now he can only learn from scratch.

Shi Yu, who went home and talked to her mother, came to the bedroom now, and saw music-related knowledge slowly on Yi Chen's computer.

"Chen Jun, what are you looking at? Music?"

"kindness."

Yi Chen nodded, downloaded all these materials, and then found a video on the basics of music theory.

"I can't find a suitable music company for the time being. I plan to learn the basics by myself first, and then I will ask Aunt Sayuri if she knows any of them when I go to egoistic-lily tomorrow. Although I also found outsourcing when I was making Hollow Knight, but It’s mostly simple music and sound effects. But it’s different now, in the case of Persona, music is a very important part of it, and it must be taken seriously.”

"Learn by yourself? I really didn't expect that."

Leaning close to Yi Chen, Shi Yu looked at the content on the computer, and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, I haven't heard you sing, Mr. Chen, have I? Everyone in the school's music class has passed. This time the game Is it possible that you want to sing your own music?"

"This is not necessary."

Yi Chen dismissed it without hesitation, "I am very clear about my level. Although I have a lot of ideas, my DNA is limited to only making music. If I am asked to sing, I really don't have that level."

Grabbing Shi Yu's waist and letting her sit on his lap, Yi Chen looked at her and said, "I've already thought of some music that can go with the game, but I don't have enough knowledge to show it, so whether it's me To make it, or to find an outsourced music company, I have to have a certain knowledge of music theory, and I have to learn."

"So this is ah."

Shi Yu nodded knowingly, hugged Yi Chen and kissed him on the lips, and asked with a smile, "So, have you considered signing up for a class?"

"Forget about enrolling in classes, I'm not going to learn to sing."

Yi Chen finally understands, this girl just wants to learn singing for herself, and then sing for her.

Other things can be agreed, but let's forget about this, Yi Chen is very clear that his voice is not suitable for singing.

Seeing that Yi Chen didn't hook up and agreed, Shi Yu wasn't too disappointed, she also knew that Yi Chen wasn't good at singing, so there was no need to force him to go.

Instead, the two sat upright like this.

.......

When the time came to Monday, after everyone in the studio came over in the morning, Shizuku Hazuki began to distribute this week's tasks.

"Everyone should know that we have signed an outsourcing agreement with Egoistic-lily, the club managed by Egoistic-lily, Ms. Sayuri's mother. Some of the maps, monsters and NPC modeling in the development project have been outsourced. Less important work. So our next goal is more clear, to do a good job of the core content at hand, and to make a combat system that can be demonstrated before the end of this year.

For the art group, the modeling of the Phantom Thief suit for the protagonist group is going to be done, and Yuyin has already made the persona for the protagonist group for a week, and will continue to improve it this week.Haizi, I won't say much about the procedures on your side. Mr. Yi Chen is communicating with you all the time, so just pay attention to the progress yourself. "

Everyone nodded in unison, and got busy after getting their tasks.

Looking at the tasks assigned to her, Mochizuki Hongye's expression instantly became serious, and she couldn't help swallowing.

Sensing her expression, Aoba beside her came over curiously, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

Mochizuki Hongye didn't hide anything, and showed her mission to Aoba.

Mochizuki Momiji is the latest artist to join the studio besides Eriri. Last week, her task was to model the two main supporting roles, Sakura Sojiro and Mishima Yuki.

At first, Mochizuki Koye thought that his missions this week would be similar, and they would all be main supporting roles, but he didn't expect that the characters he got were actually Chihaya Mifune and Myo Takemi, two playable female characters?The importance of the role has directly increased to a level.

"Ah~~ Isn't this a good thing?"

Mochizuki Hongye nodded and said, "Well, it's a good thing, but I just didn't expect it."

Shizuku Ye Yue just poured a cup of coffee out, walked up to the two of them and said with a smile: "Xiao Taozi's progress is obvious to all, this task is entrusted to you after I discussed it with Yi Chen, please do it well!"

Hearing this, Mochizuki Hongye nodded with a serious expression.

Chapter 197 Last Surprise

In the afternoon, after the last class was over, Yi Chen and Shi Yu packed their schoolbags and went to the first floor of high school together, to the door of Ying Lili's class.

Two high school sophomores who are well-known in the whole school suddenly came here, which naturally attracted the attention of everyone in the class. Everyone knew that these two came here to find Ying Lili. They only know Ying Lili in the class.

Ying Lili, who was tidying up her things, naturally saw the two of them, and hastened to stuff all the books in, and trotted to the door of the classroom with her schoolbag.

"Why are you so fast?"

Shi Yu said with a smile on his face: "Because the homework is almost done, and there is nothing to review. Just bring a little bit with you."

"...Aren't you just saying in disguise that my grades are poor and you have to take everything back?"

Rolling her eyes at Shi Yu, Ying Lili said angrily, "Look, I will let you steal my progress for this final exam!"

"Oh~~~ Then I'll just wait and see."

Ying Lili's confidence, Shi Yu, is very clear. It is nothing more than Xue Nai who gave her tutoring. In addition to excellent grades, Xue Nai is also very good at betting questions. Under the premise that the teacher gave the test center, she can accurately press a part of the test questions and not It's not difficult.

But Shi Yu doesn't think that relying on these alone, Ying Lili's performance can be improved by leaps and bounds.In the first year of high school, there are still quite a few people who are good at studying. Ying Lili can be in the top [-] of her grade if she is at the top, which is similar to her midterm exam last semester.

Like Yinglili's complacent tone, Shiwa is also very confident in her own judgment.

It depends on the results of the final exam in the near future.

The three of them left the school together, and saw Sayuri Sawamura's car waiting here.

Rolling down the window, Sayuri Sawamura in the driver's seat waved to the three of them: "Get in the car and take you to the club."

The three of them got into the car, and Yichen sat in the co-pilot at the request of Sayuri Sawamura.

After the car started, Yi Chen asked, "Is the club far away?"

"Not far away, it's in Shinjuku. I have an unused office property, which is used as a venue for club activities. Everyone's usual creations are carried out there."

Driving the car, Sayuri Sawamura smiled and said, "Yichen-kun, if you need office space for your company to expand in the future, you can come to me. I know a lot of people here, and I can give you a fair price."

"That's really necessary, thank you Aunt Sayuri in advance."

Yi Chen had planned it long ago. After the Chinese New Year, he started to expand the enrollment, and the venue was a very important part of it.Now with the help of Sayuri Sawamura, an elder who has a good network in Tokyo, various things can be much easier.

Sayuri Sawamura smiled and said, "You're welcome, this is also the business of taking care of my friends, and Yichen, you and Shiyu usually take care of our Yinglili, so it's no problem to do a little favor."

Ying Lili in the back row heard it, and said dissatisfiedly: "What is taking care of, it's not bad if you don't bully me!"

Recalling that after Eri Kashiwagi's identity was exposed, everyone in the studio used this scene to tease her from time to time, and Eirili felt quite helpless.

Sayuri Sawamura doesn't care about her daughter's complaints at all. If she really didn't like it, she would have stopped going to the studio, wouldn't she?It seems that the relationship with everyone is already very good, and it is not really bullying.

Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of an independent three-story office building.

After parking the car, Sayuri Sawamura said, "The third floor is up there, let's go."

The four of them entered the office building and went up to the third floor. Sure enough, they saw the egoistic-lily sign at the entrance of the third floor.

There is no front desk at the door like those companies. After entering, there are neatly arranged desks, computer monitors and digital tablets placed in front of the monitors.

Because I knew that the person who sent the cooperation request today would come, so everyone in the club was here.

At first glance, everyone's age is not too old, and they should be in their 20s to 30s. After all, Sayuri Sawamura has said that some of them are classmates and juniors from her previous school.

After getting to know each other for a while, everyone got together, and Yi Chen talked about outsourcing.

Of course, a non-disclosure agreement needs to be signed, Yi Chen doesn't want his game to be leaked before it's developed, that's not a good thing.

The meeting didn't end until six o'clock, and Yi Chen and Shi Yu were sent back to the apartment by Sayuri Sawamura.

Originally, Sayuri Sawamura wanted to invite the two of them to have a meal with everyone in the club, but today Shiyu's home is cooking, so I still have to come back, and the opportunity to eat will be saved for the next time. short.

After eating a dinner made by Mrs. Xiazhiqiu at Xiazhiqiu's house, and chatting with Mr. Xiazhiqiu after the meal, Yi Chen returned to his side with Shi Yu.

Not in a hurry to go back to the bedroom or take a shower, the two sat on the sofa in the living room, watching TV and chatting leisurely.

Holding Yi Chen's arm, picking up an apple with a toothpick and biting it, Shi Yu said: "Mr. Chen, if you want to expand the company next year, do you think there is a chance to recruit all the egoistic-lily people?"

"Huh? All recruited?"
