To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 1062 You have a good connection...

Lin Wan froze for a moment: "Huh?"

Pei Qian explained: "In Tenda, each employee consumes 3.2 packs of snacks per day, coffee and drinks are not included, basically non-stop from work to get off work. This is the premise that many employees decide to lose weight and have some control Down."

"However, there is obviously a big gap between Chixing Studio and this value, and we still have to make persistent efforts."

"The amount of snacks you eat can tell how much your employees are working. If you eat more snacks, it means that employees are working hard and thinking hard, and consume a lot of energy, so they need to eat a lot of snacks as a supplement."

"So, we still have to work hard on this!"

Lin Wan's expression was slightly surprised.

Eat less snacks?

Is this also an issue that needs improvement?
Or... is there actually deeper information behind this that can be unearthed?
Lin Wan frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared: "I understand, Mr. Pei!"

"Are you saying that these employees have just joined the company not long ago, and not eating snacks actually reflects that their attitude at work is still relatively rigid and not relaxed enough?"

"And game creation is an industry that needs inspiration. Only when you are fully relaxed can you make a good design; only in a relaxed atmosphere can the communication between colleagues be more harmonious and smooth?"

"So eating less snacks reflects that the team's running-in is not enough, and the atmosphere is not active enough. This will actually affect the daily work status and the quality of the finished game!"

"Seeing the small things, only if everyone can eat a lot of snacks in a down-to-earth manner, can the whole team get on the right track faster?"

"Then I will send a notice to everyone in a while, encouraging everyone to eat more snacks in the future! According to the portion of 2 packs per person per day!"

Pei Qian was shocked.

He was just casually saying that he hoped that the employees of Chixing Studio would eat more snacks and work less, but he did not expect Lin Wan to make up so many things in his brain in less than a second...

Sure enough, is this an old employee of Tenda?

Pei Qian couldn't help but want to put his hand on his forehead, wondering what was going on, how did he train so many strange-looking employees...

But now there is no way to explain it. Pei Qian could only acquiesce to Lin Wan's statement, and immediately changed the subject: "Let's talk about the VR glasses."

Lin Wan nodded: "Let's go to the conference room, my brother happens to be there too."

As soon as he entered the meeting room, Pei Qian saw Lin Chang who was playing with his mobile phone with his head down.

Lin Chang looked up and saw Pei Qian immediately smiled: "Hey, Mr. Pei, are you here? Has the capital turnover issue at Tengda been resolved?"

The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly.

Isn't this a well-intentioned question?

Don't think that I don't know that you are behind the scenes!

Although Pei Qian didn't think so much at first, the more he thought about it in the past two days, the more something went wrong.

It stands to reason that the sloth apartment building should be very popular, why is it that no one wants it?

It is a bit far-fetched to say that all companies do not want to "take advantage of the fire", because it is impossible for all interested companies to respect Tenda enough to give up such a large piece of fat.

Therefore, it is likely that someone ventilated them behind their backs!
As for who this person is, it is actually easy to guess, it is nothing more than one of Li Shi or Lin Changzhong.

But Li Shi doesn't have such great energy, his influence is limited to Jingzhou, and he can't say anything to some big real estate companies in China.

With that out of the way, the answer is obvious.

In this event that hindered the sale of the property, Lin Chang definitely exerted great energy!
Pei Qian chuckled: "This is thanks to Mr. Lin for his 'help'."

Although Pei Qian tried his best to speak in a yin and yang tone, Lin Chang still didn't notice it, and instead waved his hand a little embarrassedly: "Hey, Boss Pei is too polite, which one of us is with whom, you are welcome!"

"Actually, it's all a matter of making a few phone calls for me."

"Mr. Pei has contributed so much to Chixing Studio, and even would rather sell the building to pay this amount of money. How can this kind of friendship be measured by money! This little favor can't be called a help, Mr. Pei must not take it to heart! "

Pei Qian: "..."

Why can't you hear the good words?Am I thanking you?
If it weren't for the system to control my mouth, I would have vomited fragrance to you, okay?
Pei Qian was very speechless, so he found a chair by the conference table and sat down: "Let's talk about business. I heard that the research and development funds for VR glasses are not enough?"

Lin Wan nodded: "Well, yes."

"The research and development funds we originally set were 2000 million yuan for games and VR glasses. The game is absolutely no problem, it must be enough, but the VR glasses... have encountered a little problem."

"Actually, according to our original design, the amount of money is about the same, but after the specific design and communication with the factory, we changed several versions of the plan, and Lao Song wanted to adopt some new technologies. The cost goes up..."

Lao Song is the product manager in charge of the VR glasses project at Shenhua Group.

The investment in this kind of hardware research and development can be more or less, and the fluctuation is actually very large. The key depends on how much it needs to achieve.

Not to mention a piece of equipment, even the development of a small controller, Microsoft has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in funds.

But these are too much attention to details, such as the ergonomic design, durability, feel and unique appearance of the handle, all of which need to be revised and tested repeatedly.

But many domestic manufacturers actually also make handles, and the research and development expenses for this kind of handles are much, much lower.

Of course, there will be a gap between a good handle and a bad handle, the feel and the actual experience, but the gap will not be that big.

In other words, the cheap handle "is not unusable".

After all, you get what you pay for, and you get what you get for ten dollars. On this kind of somatosensory device, the price paid for every point of improvement in the feel is very huge.

As far as VR equipment is concerned, the very sensational first-generation Oculus Rift was only made with crowdfunding of 250 million knives, which also included part of the money for production and stocking.

Many domestic companies also use crowdfunding to develop VR glasses. For example, a domestic VR glasses with 8K as a gimmick has raised 300 million dollars to develop VR glasses with the highest resolution in the world. Although the base station and the handle are both It uses off-the-shelf technology, but it is enough to show that the research and development of VR glasses does not actually cost that much money.

The current VR glasses do not actually have much advanced technical content, and the difference from traditional displays is only the display method.

The two lenses of the VR glasses create a virtual field of view in the user's brain based on different visual fields and depth cognition of different pictures in the local space, making a display effect that is different from traditional screens. .

In other words, the information is still that information, it is nothing more than showing these pictures to the players in a different form.

And Chixing Studio invested 2000 million, which can be converted into 300 million knives. In fact, it is already a relatively large investment at present. Ordinary companies dare not spend this money to make VR by themselves, fearing that they will lose everything.

What's more, VR glasses have something in common with mobile phones. For example, they both need a chip and a basic Adraine operating system. These are undoubtedly the strengths of Shenhua Group, which can save a lot of money in this regard.

Originally, the money was enough, but as a product manager, Lao Song has a more geek personality. He had some new ideas in the design process, and the development of the handle was indeed more difficult than originally expected, so several editions were published. After designing the plan, it was discovered that the funds were a bit stretched, so he reported to Lin Wan for instructions.

Lao Song even proposed a somatosensory glove in a whimsical way, but he quickly rejected it.

Because there are several problems in making gloves, which are difficult to solve with the current technical conditions, such as:

The size of players' hands is very different. Making gloves means making many sizes, and even if you make many sizes, it may not be completely suitable for players' hands.As for gloves, a little bigger or a little smaller will be uncomfortable.If it is a handle, it can be made into a one-size-fits-all, so that all players can use it comfortably.

Moreover, in order to complete the corresponding functions, the handle must be equipped with batteries, sensors, joysticks and buttons. Gloves plus these things will definitely be too bloated and heavy, and it will be very inconvenient to operate.

Therefore, the glove solution is not feasible based on the current technical level. Even if it is barely made, the user experience will not be good, so it is honestly returning to the handle solution.

But even for the handle solution, because it is different from the existing VR handles, the money needed for research and development is more than previously expected.

Hearing this, Pei Qian regained his energy, and his eyes lit up instantly: "I said at the time, the money must not be enough!"

"You said at the time that 1500 million would be enough to make it. I was worried that the money was not enough and it was added to 2000 million. Now it seems that 2000 million is not enough!"

"It must be added!"

Hearing this, Lin Chang hurriedly said: "No problem! As much as Mr. Pei adds, we Shenhua will also add as much!"

Pei Qian glanced at him, a little speechless.

What are you messing around with?

Originally, Pei Qian didn't want to play with Lin Chang, because Pei Qian was rushing to lose money. If Lin Chang also paid the same money, wouldn't he also suffer a loss?

It's better to let Boss Pei bear this kind of thing by himself.

But when he thought of the good deeds Lin Chang had done a few days ago, Pei Qian immediately lost his sympathy for him.

Fortunately, it deserves it!

Pei Qian chuckled: "That's fine, Tengda will make another 1000 million follow-up investment."

Lin Chang froze for a moment: "Ah? Do you need so many?"

Pei Qian coughed twice, and said, "If it's not convenient for Mr. Lin, it's okay if it's all from Tengda's side..."

Lin Chang hurriedly waved his hand: "No problem! What could be wrong with this?"

"Shenhua will invest another 1000 million, it's all right!"

"4000 million, almost equal to nearly 600 million knives, which is already twice as much as the foreign VR glasses that caused a sensation before..."

"It's all right now, right?"

Although it is to support his sister, Lin Chang still instinctively feels a little hypocritical.

1000 million is not a big amount for Shenhua Group. What he is worried about is whether the project will fail after investing the money, and whether it will cause a huge blow to Lin Wan.

But since Boss Pei made the decision to increase the money, let's add it!
Lin Wan nodded: "This is definitely enough! But, Mr. Pei, is there really no problem with Tengda's funds? Why don't you just keep the money and let my brother pay all the 2000 million..."

Pei Qian's face darkened instantly: "Tengda's funds are fine, very good! You don't have to worry about this!"

"Instead of worrying about this, it's better to put all our energy on the development of equipment and game design, and strive to make the product come out as soon as possible!"

Anyway, the day this product came out, it was not far from blood loss.

Lin Wan nodded: "Okay, I will tell Lao Song later. In this way, his previous designs can be implemented, and I will be very happy!"

"By the way, Mr. Pei, it's hard to come here. Would you like to see the current art concept map of "Animal Island"?"

Pei Qian thought for a while: "That's fine."

After all, there is still a long time before the game DEMO is released. Looking at the art concept map, you can also get a general idea of ​​the general style of the game and make up the game screen.

Lin Wan took a laptop from the side, found some conceptual drawings of the game, and showed them to Pei Qian and Lin Chang.

Pei Qian glanced at it and couldn't help being a little surprised.

This Q-version concept drawing is... perfect!
The background of the concept map is a small island in the sea with lush vegetation and picturesque scenery.The main part of the picture is a variety of anthropomorphic small animals, such as kittens, puppies, lions, bears, rabbits, etc. Some are fishing with a fishing rod in their hands, some are cutting trees with an axe, and Some are farming with hoes.

There is also a weird robot with a steamy style, assisting these small animals to manage the farmland, and built a steampunk farmland irrigation system, of course, it is also a Q version.

For painters, compared with the realistic painting style, the Q version is relatively easy to learn, because as long as they are not particularly talented, the Q version will not be too ugly.

But it is difficult to master the Q version, because the key to the Q version is to extract the outstanding features of the original image for re-creation. How to make the Q version characters cute and recognizable while retaining the core essence is a very important task. Difficult things.

And these pictures are obviously masterpieces.

Pei Qian was very happy.

A masterpiece means expensive!

It's definitely a good thing to spend more money.

"This picture looks like a master's handwriting, didn't it cost a lot of money?" Pei Qian asked casually.

Lin Wan smiled: "I'm still talking about money with Mr. Ruan. Isn't there a long-term cooperation price?"

Pei Qian froze for a moment, and a question mark floated above his head.

?

"Is this painted by Ruan Guangjian?"

Pei Qian felt a little dazed, because he remembered that Ruan Guangjian seemed to be mainly painting in a realistic style.

Lin Wan nodded: "Yes, I can only say that the boss is the boss, and the Q print is so good!"

Pei Qian was silent.

He suddenly remembered that Ruan Guangjian painted more realistic paintings, but it didn't mean he couldn't draw Q version.

When Pei Qian looked for an artist on the Internet for "Ghost General", it was because he saw that Ruan Guangjian's representative works were all in Q version, and suspected that he would not be able to paint realistically at all, so he came to him...

Not long after "Mission and Choice" was released, Ruan Guangjian came to work on "Animal Island"?

The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with emotion: "You guys have connected well..."
