To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 1157 The new game "Real Estate Agent Simulator"!
Pei Qian fell into silence.

It sounds so reliable!

Now that Chixing Studio has become a hit in the VR field, it is indeed a considerable challenge to continue to cultivate in the VR field, modify the game content and develop a new VR game according to the operating standards established in "Animal Island". Safe decision.

After the game is made, with the fame of Chixing Studio and Tenda, it is very likely to make money.

Seeing that President Pei fell silent, Cai Jiadong was a little lost.

Sure enough, this idea of ​​mine is still too simple, and it is far from the standard answer in President Pei's mind.

Lin Wan took over the words: "Lao Cai's choice is indeed the most reasonable choice under normal thinking."

"However, I think there are risks involved with this option."

"I chatted with Lao Song, the product manager of VR glasses, and he said that Doubt VR glasses have used all the currently available VR glasses technology, and it is a comprehensive product. It is not optimistically estimated that in the next two or three years, The form of VR glasses products may not change much."

"What I am worried about is that once the development of VR glasses products stagnates, the VR industry will definitely cool down rapidly. At that time, the games we have invested heavily in developing may not be able to recover the cost because the market is not large enough."

"So, my thinking is, don't put your eggs in one basket."

"Regular games and VR games can be developed alternately, or dual versions can be made at the beginning of the project."

"In this way, even if the VR industry shrinks sharply in the future, Chixing Studio can continue to make traditional games and still live well."

Pei Qian continued to be silent.

Sounds like...that makes sense!

Lin Wan's plan is more solid and stable.

According to her method, Chixing Studio can not only enjoy the dividends of VR games, but also use the experience and advantages of developing traditional games before, avoid risks, and make money steadily.

This special meow, no matter how you choose, it seems that you will earn...

However, Lin Wan still provided a very useful information, that is, the VR industry has no technical reserves and is likely to stagnate or even shrink in the future.

This is exactly in line with the state of the VR industry in Pei Qian's memory.

Due to technical reasons, the VR boom will only last for a short period of time, and then it will drop sharply. The "VR game era" that many people expect has ended before it even started.

Therefore, the plans of these two people must not be used, and they have to think of a plan that loses money and loses hard.

Continue to spend huge sums of money to develop VR games, and can't develop VR games that seem to have a high chance of success!

As Cai Jiadong said, it is absolutely impossible to develop a 3A FPS game, the probability of success is too high.

Pei Qian concluded that the success of "Animal Island" was mainly because the idea was not outrageous enough.

Previously, he decided to work on the project "Animal Island", mainly because he was in a hurry to talk during meetings. After denying several directions such as realistic FPS and movie games, he inexplicably finalized the direction of cartoon style and casual games.

Then, after a lot of brainstorming, "Animal Island" was born.

Looking back at the game "Animal Island" now, Pei Qian found that it was obviously too reliable.

How did you allow Chixing Studio to develop such a reliable game in the first place?
No wonder it failed so badly.

Therefore, Pei Qian felt that the reason why the VR game did not fail was mainly because he was lazy and didn't think too much.

This time, I propose a particularly outrageous VR game idea, invest a huge amount of money, coupled with the general trend of the VR industry gradually cooling down in the future, I will definitely lose money!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian coughed twice and said, "Both of you are quite right."

"but……"

"Obviously it still doesn't meet my previous definition of the word 'late'."

"Think about it, what did you say before you decided to make a VR game?"

Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong looked at each other.

Cai Jiadong said: "I remember. At that time, everyone said that we wanted to make mobile games. President Pei, you said that being late means making bold assumptions, carefully verifying, and having a long-term vision when setting goals. Without foresight, there will still be detours.”

"Also, it is only by daring to make breakthroughs that progress can be made. None of the previous projects have been successful because of 'seeking stability'."

"Could it be that... Mr. Pei, do you think my current thinking is still too stable?"

Pei Qian nodded, the class representative summed it up well, and he was a good seedling.

Cai Jiadong was thoughtful.

"really……"

"When Chixing Studio was just starting out, VR games had not yet appeared, and making games like "Animal Island" was already considered a relatively risky behavior."

"But now that the Doubt VR glasses have been successful, it's not an adventure to make a regular VR game step by step."

Lin Wan thought about it and said, "So, Mr. Pei, do you mean that we should continue to invest more in making VR games, and at the same time make a very novel game that no one has ever made before?"

Pei Qian nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, that's what it means!"

"Don't be afraid of failure, if you are afraid of failure, you will never be able to achieve real success."

The implication is, if you guys keep your money and keep making money, how can I stand it?

It must take more risks and failures before this huge family can be completely defeated.

Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong nodded each with a stunned expression on their faces.

Sure enough, Mr. Pei's way of looking at problems is still so unique, so sharp!

It's just, what new ideas does President Pei have this time?

Pei Qian coughed twice and said, "My idea this time is to make a realistic game."

"The game will be based on Jingzhou, with realistic painting style, fine modeling, and real-life motion capture. The investment must be huge!"

"And the identity of the character in the game... In reality, it is a kind of occupation that is more annoying and boring."

Putting the most annoying profession in reality into the game and letting the player into this profession should make the player run away with nausea, right?

It's a realistic theme again, and it's boring to think about it.

As for what this profession is...

There are many kinds, and Pei Qian didn't think too much about it.

He looked at Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong, obviously he had to count on their brains at this time.

Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong looked at each other, and they didn't immediately guess what occupation Mr. Pei was going to talk about.

Cai Jiadong was silent for a while, then said tentatively, "Uh... a real estate agent?"

Pei Qian immediately slapped the table: "Yes, that's it!"

Real estate agents are definitely a very annoying industry.

Of course, it’s still the same sentence. It’s not how most people who work as real estate agents are, but the nature of the job and the nature of most real estate agency companies determine that this job is not easy to do.

There are other ways, and many people will not choose to do this.

Turning this into a game, thinking about it with your feet, feels very boring and very persuaded to repel players.

The basic gameplay of the game is nothing more than constantly taking customers to see the house, selling the house, and clicking the dialogue options on the screen. The gameplay has no depth at all.

Such a boring game, with detailed modeling and real-life motion capture, can be said to be quite a waste.

There will also be a lot of useless dialogue and text in the game, all of which are dubbed by real people, which is another waste of money.

Such an outrageous game, it should be impossible to make money, right?

In fact, Pei Qian didn't think about what kind of professional simulator he wanted to be at the beginning, but after hearing what Cai Jiadong said, he suddenly felt that a real estate agency was quite suitable.

It's it!
Pei Qian stood up and was about to leave.

Before leaving, he added: "Of course, this is just an immature little idea of ​​mine. If you don't think it's appropriate, you can do other things."

"Also, you must be fully prepared before project development, and it will start next month at the earliest."

In name, Tenda Group and Chixing Studio are just an investment relationship, and Pei Qian cannot "order" Chixing Studio to develop a certain game.

But Pei Qian believed that Lin Wan and the others would definitely do the same.

……

After sending Mr. Pei away, Lin Wan and Cai Jiadong changed from one kind of confusion to another.

President Pei pointed them in the direction, but why does it sound a little unreliable?

Cai Jiadong said, "President Lin, as President Pei said..."

"A game with a real estate agent as the protagonist can only be a 'real estate agent simulator'..."

"But what is there to simulate?"

"The job of a real estate agent is very boring. Every day is nothing more than showing clients to see houses, posting online, looking for houses, etc."

"In reality, many people are not willing to do this job, let alone make a game?"

Lin Wan's expression was solemn, and she fell into contemplation.

"Since Mr. Pei said he can do it, there must be enough gameplay to support it."

"Games must be based on reality and higher than reality."

"We can actually design it like this: the protagonist is a new real estate agent who rents a house at the beginning. His job is to show customers the house, introduce the house to the customer, and make money with commission. But as the game progresses, he can also open a house. own company, build your own brand.”

"In the early days, the protagonist was mainly looking at the house. Different guests have different preferences. Whether they want to tell the truth about the shortcomings of the house or deceive customers, they will bear the corresponding consequences."

"After the protagonist is promoted to the store manager, he can have a certain degree of autonomy, change the layout and structure of the house, and renovate some old houses, so as to attract more customers and earn the rent difference."

"After that, after the protagonist builds his own brand, he can also customize furniture with furniture manufacturers, and deeply remodel the house according to his favorite style. You can also save money to buy your own house, rest in your own house, and have some simple entertainment. "

"In this way, the gameplay of the game is still very rich, it can be a real estate agent simulator, judge the shortcomings of the house, communicate with customers to promote orders, or it can be a decoration simulator, plan the layout and decoration style in the room, and The system gives the score.”

"Even we can cooperate with sloth apartments and furniture manufacturers that meet the standards to link in the game."

"Under the perspective of VR, players can clearly see the structure and layout of a house, which is also very helpful for many people who also need to buy or rent a house in reality."
