Game designer: I am making games, not charity

Inside Platinum Games.

Li Yaolong strode to the door of the company's office hall.

This is the main game design department of Platinum Corporation.

After Chen Feng ordered Zhang Mengyao to set up a mobile game branch, the company rented the office building upstairs for Zhang Mengyao to use.

Li Yaolong didn't know about these things, and thought that this office hall was the mobile game department.

He was a smart man, so he didn't go in immediately, but stood at the door, observing and listening to the situation inside.

"Director Luo, the coffee is here, let's play first?"

"That's for sure, bring the playing cards!"

"I will never lose again this time!"

Hearing this, Li Yaolong frowned slightly, turned his body and looked inside.

I saw that the office hall was full of employees at the moment, but they stopped working, and a group of people gathered together, as if they were playing some game.

Among the employees, there is a man with a Mediterranean haircut. He is holding a deck of playing cards and is dealing the cards one by one.

He muttered softly: "Now the company has set up a mobile game department, which also makes card games like this.

After the game comes out, it will be much more convenient for us to play the game directly on the mobile phone. "

The whole group laughed.

Li Yaolong outside the door listened with pricked ears, and his eyes lit up when he heard what they said about mobile games and card games.

He came here just to know what mobile games Platinum Games is doing.

Unexpectedly, before I could say anything, the group of people started discussing themselves.

Li Yaolong was overjoyed, but when he looked sideways, the group of employees had already started playing poker. From what they said, it seemed that the losers were asked to go downstairs to get coffee.

But that's not the point. The point is what the Mediterranean said just now.

Li Yaolong recalled it, and thought to himself, the cards these people played should be similar to the mobile game they are about to make.

"Well, that's how it should be. Platinum Games is able to get to where it is today by making computer games. It's just a gimmick. Those games are really that good. I don't believe it..."

Li Yaolong has never played "Legend" and "Diablo". In his mind, these two games are quite ordinary, and they are so popular only because of the gimmick of their computer games.

Now they want to play games on mobile phones, this gimmick is more sufficient than computer games.

Play anytime, anywhere.

It's just... mobile card games, how can they attract players?

Li Yaolong thought for a while, and then looked at Luo Zhonghao and his party who were playing cards not far away, and then the corner of his mouth hooked up, revealing a smirk.

Anyway, these sand sculptures are already playing by themselves, wouldn't it be ok to just go and copy homework?
Moreover, he just observed that there is no Zhang Mengyao in this hall.

He thought maybe Chen Feng took Zhang Mengyao with him when he left.

In the entire platinum game company, only Chen Feng and Zhang Mengyao knew what he had done.

Now that both of them are gone, he doesn't need to worry at all!
Thinking about it, Li Yaolong walked directly inside.

Now all the employees in the hall are surrounded by Luo Zhonghao and the others, so no one noticed that Li Yaolong came in. He walked into the office hall smoothly, lowered his footsteps, and quietly walked behind Luo Zhonghao and his party, stood on tiptoe, and walked towards the signboard. Look inside the table.

After watching carefully for half a minute, he already fully understood how Luo Zhonghao and the others played.

Very simple!
There is a total of a deck of playing cards, one for each person, and the size is compared there.

Li Yaolong was stunned watching it, it's so simple? !

But he soon fell into deep thought.

The mobile phone is a touch screen, with very few buttons, and there is no way to install a controller or something, so controlling the game must be a big problem... Maybe, only such a simple game can survive.

"That's right! It must be so!" Li Yaolong became even more proud, "I said, how can this platinum game company have the ability to make good games? Sure enough, this so-called mobile game is just a gimmick!

And even if they want to do it well, with the performance of the mobile phone, it is impossible to put our VR game on it. The model alone can fill up the memory of the mobile phone!
At the same time, if the game is made too rich, the time for game production will naturally be lengthened. Maybe when the game is made, other companies have already thought of the idea of ​​mobile games, seized the gimmick in advance, and stole the market.

Therefore, the game must be simple, and the production speed can be increased. At the same time, this kind of card game that compares the size is simple, but it is easier to attract people. It can be played on a mobile phone anytime, anywhere.

If it is really done like this, even if the game itself is not fun, but with the gimmick bonus of this mobile game, just relying on the player's early adopter psychology, the income will not be too bad! "

Li Yaolong couldn't help squinting his eyes, thinking that he had taken such a good idea from Chen Feng before, and the other party could still start the company.

I have to say, he is quite admirable.

"Chen Feng, Chen Feng, you really have two brushes... But next, the mobile game you finally came up with will be mine!"

Li Yaolong couldn't help laughing as he thought about it.

For taking away Chen Feng's game ideas, he will not have any psychological burden!

And right now.

Next to Luo Zhonghao and his team, the game had just ended, and in the final comparison, Luo Zhonghao had the smallest card points.

Luo Zhonghao shook his head in frustration: "Damn! What a bad luck, come on, get out of the way, I'll get coffee... Hey, who are you?"

After everyone stepped aside, Luo Zhonghao saw Li Yaolong, the unexpected guest.

The other employees around were also stunned, turned their heads in unison, and cast their eyes on Li Yaolong.

This guy... when did he come in?who is he?
The girl at the front desk who was in charge of guarding the door was also blushing. She had just come over to watch the excitement, but a stranger suddenly entered the company. This was entirely her responsibility.

If the company loses anything because of this, then she is doomed!

But strictly speaking, it has nothing to do with the girl at the front desk.

It was already off-duty time, and logically speaking, she could have gone home long ago, but because of the good atmosphere in the company, she stayed and worked overtime voluntarily with Luo Zhonghao and the others.

Therefore, it is normal to be a little negligent during this time period.

No one would blame her.

As the director of the game design department and an old man in the game circle, Luo Zhonghao has a high awareness of precautions, and immediately looked at the computers at his respective stations.

Fortunately, the computers of all the employees are locked, so there will be no leakage of game content or confidential information.

After confirming these, Luo Zhonghao was relieved a little, but at the same time, he was even more annoyed at the person who broke into the company suddenly: "Who are you? If you don't say anything, I will call the police! Breaking into other people's companies without permission, What do you want?"

But Li Yaolong, standing there, looked normal, without any embarrassment of sneaking into someone else's company and being caught.

He adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on his face, and at the same time showed a self-styled smile: "I know your boss Chen Feng, he begged me several times, let me come to your company to guide the work, is it possible, do you think You are a small company, what else can I see?"

As he said that, he took out his mobile phone again, opened the photo album, and flipped through the photos in it. They were all photos with Chen Feng. The relationship between the two seemed very good, just like brothers.

However, these photos are obviously old, and Chen Feng in them still looks quite immature.

When Li Yaolong said this, Luo Zhonghao and the others couldn't help being taken aback.

How many times did Mr. Chen beg him?Let him guide the work?

They all know how talented Chen Feng is, and they can't even be described as human beings. Is this kind of thing really possible?
But judging from the photos in the other party's mobile phone, Mr. Chen seems to know the other party...and for a long time.

Therefore, the employees around were all half-believing, not daring to really trust, but also not daring not to believe at all, for fear of offending Chen Feng's friends.

On the other hand, Luo Zhonghao, who has been in the game industry for so many years and has experienced all kinds of ups and downs, looked unreliable when he saw Li Yaolong's appearance, but he didn't say much before getting proof, he just took out his mobile phone and gave it to the person upstairs. Zhang Mengyao sent a text message.

As one of the company's oldest employees, the only person Luo Zhonghao knew who was more senior than himself was Zhang Mengyao, who had become a shareholder and was likely to be promoted to be the proprietress.

At the same time, he also sent a text message to Chen Feng, but he didn't expect to get a reply.

He had received a call from Chen Feng before, and he knew that Chen Feng's affairs had been finished, and he got on the plane back. He should be on the plane now, but he didn't receive any information at all.

It can only be said that this person came here by a coincidence!

Li Yaolong grinned, pulled Luo Zhonghao's chair and sat on it: "Quick, my time is limited, please tell me about the mobile game department, how long will it take to make it? What is the current level?"

All the employees around were silent. When it came to matters related to work, even if they believed in each other's identity, they would not reveal it casually. This is a company secret!
And first, this person opened his mouth and said that he was sent by Mr. Chen to guide the work. Mr. Chen never explained it. Who would believe it?
If you have a slightly normal mind, you won't believe it.

And they didn't receive any notification from Chen Feng, so it was even more impossible for them to believe it casually.

Second, the mobile game department is not the same department as them, and they really don't know it.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Yaolong thought they were all intimidated by him, and said with a smile: "The predecessor of Platinum Game Company was founded by me and you, Mr. Chen. Heh, your Mr. Chen is not good at making games. At that time, I taught him a lot of things."

The employees froze again.

This person can actually teach Mr. Chen how to play games?

You must know that Mr. Chen is a fierce man who can code out a thief with awesome game data in half a day.

Then this person is so awesome that he can teach Mr. Chen.

There were one or two ordinary employees who had just joined the company, and expressions of shock and admiration flashed in their eyes.

Seeing this, Li Yaolong showed off his might even more.

I just feel that in this place, I can show my awesomeness even more than when I was in the goose factory.

Next, he was going to set the words of the employees.

So he turned his head, looked at Luo Zhonghao, who was obviously in charge, and said lightly, "You are the director of the game design department? Let me ask you, how do you make this card-based mobile game?"

Luo Zhonghao spread his hands, looking like an old fritter: "I don't know about that."

Li Yaolong's eyes widened, and he pretended to be threatening: "You are the director of the game department, you don't know this? What kind of director are you? Then, who knows about this?"

At this time, an angry voice suddenly sounded at the door: "You shameless guy, what evil do you want to do!"
