To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 490 Crowdfunding and Playing Games

Monday, October 4.

The matter of Jin Yiwei has been handed over to Xiao Tang, and I don't know what kind of people she will find.

There are quite a few departments in Tengda now, even if each department has a staff member, it would take more than a dozen people, and it is impossible to get them together in a hurry.

Pei Qian's request to Tang Yishu is to find all the people before next Saturday.

On Saturday, when no one in the company sneaks into a small meeting and arranges work, I still feel a little bit confused when I think about it.

Pei Qian still slept until he woke up naturally today. After eating, he came to the company for a walk, expressing a little bit.

However, before I had time to open the Elli Island website to follow the drama, I heard a knock on the door outside.

"Ok?"

Pei Qian couldn't help but frown, what's the rush?

He had only been in the office for 2 minutes when someone knocked on the door, obviously he had been waiting for a long time.

"Please come in."

Outside the door, Hu Xianbin pushed the door and entered.

"What's the matter, did the development of "Struggle" encounter problems?" Pei Qian couldn't help but have some small expectations in his heart.

Hu Xianbin shook his head: "No, the development of "Struggle" is going well so far. It's GOG's business!"

Pei Qian couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

On the one hand, it is because the development of "Struggle" is smooth, and on the other hand, Hu Xianbin is still worrying about GOG, which is very inconsistent with the spirit of Tenda.

Pei Qian coughed twice: "Don't rush to talk about GOG."

"There are some problems with your working ideas."

"People's energy is limited, and they can only do one thing at the same time. How can we manage the development of "Struggle" and the operation of GOG?"

"Give up the operation of GOG as soon as possible."

Anyway, Hu Xianbin is also a research and development staff in the second half of GOG, responsible for the launch of the mobile game version and the client game version, and is very familiar with the GOG project.

Pei Qian asked Hu Xianbin to be in charge of the research and development of the "Struggle" project in order to let him no longer manage GOG, but he actually wanted to do both jobs together, which is really too much.

Hu Xianbin was stunned for a moment: "Uh, good Mr. Pei, I will hand over the work to Min Jingchao when I get back."

"However... for the GOG project, I do have very important things to report!"

Pei Qian nodded: "Well, tell me."

Hu Xianbin seemed very urgent: "President Pei, I hope to make an exception and urgently recruit more people for the Tenda game department!"

Pei Qian couldn't help frowning.

Make an exception?

Hiring more people?

Little brother, this is a very dangerous thought!

At present, all departments and positions of Tenda are recruited uniformly, only twice a year, in May and November.

This time is set mainly to avoid the peak season of recruitment.

Since the recruitment process is relatively cumbersome, and sufficient time is left for new employees to go through resignation procedures and handover work, the actual entry time will be delayed by another month.

But Pei Qian looked at the date, and today is already April 4th. What is there to worry about on GOG, and they can't even wait for more than a month?

There must be something wrong here!

Pei Qian attached great importance to it in his heart, but on the surface he asked calmly: "Why are you in such a hurry to recruit people?"

Hu Xianbin said: "Mr. Pei, because ioi is going to engage in an 'arms race' with us, and now the GOG project urgently needs manpower expansion! Otherwise, our early advantages will be gone!"

Pei Qian couldn't help but feel happy.

Although I don't understand what the "arms race" refers to, but one thing is clear: Lin Wan has started to act!

During this period of time, the preparations for the ioi national server should have been almost completed, and a series of publicity strategies should have been formulated to start grabbing GOG's market.

I don't know what channel Hu Xianbin got the news from.

However, considering that Tenda Games and Shangyang Games are brother departments, it is not surprising to get news from any source.

Based on the mentality that watching the excitement is not a big deal, Pei Qian smiled and said: "Really, tell me in detail."

Hu Xianbin hurriedly said: "ioi's strategy is to update desperately and win by quantity. According to the current plan, two new heroes will be updated in a month, which is too fast!"

"The number of heroes in GOG is slightly less than that of ioi, but it is still within the acceptable range."

"Once ioi updates new heroes at such a speed of light, and we still update a new hero slowly in two months, we will definitely be left behind soon, and GOG's first-mover advantage will be gone. !"

Pei Qian nodded frequently.

Sure, Finger Company and Lin Wan are both reliable!

Sure enough, the script still developed as I imagined, and I was really exhausted.

Pei Qian's expression became more and more calm: "So, you want to recruit more people and compare their speed with each other?"

Hu Xianbin nodded: "Yes, there is no reason for us to lose to them in terms of speed! Whoever updates faster can better maintain the stickiness of players and the enthusiasm of the game. The advantage in this aspect is too great!"

"The current situation is that the brave wins when we meet on a narrow road, and GOG must not give in!"

Pei Qian was silent for a moment: "I disagree with you."

"It's definitely not good to recruit people in advance. Even if it's next month's recruitment, I don't recommend that the game department recruit too many new people."

Hu Xianbin was stunned: "Why, why?"

Pei Qian leaned back on the boss's chair, and said seriously: "Manpower is not enough."

"With more people, the speed will be faster, and more ideas will come up. This seems to be a good thing."

"However, a large number of people may be a treasure, or it may be a cage."

"Don't encounter problems and always think of this stupid way of crowd tactics. It will lower your upper limit of thinking and obliterate your inspiration."

"In short, don't recruit too many people."

Hu Xianbin was a little anxious: "But Mr. Pei..."

Pei Qian emphasized again: "Don't recruit too many people."

Hu Xianbin had nothing to say, he didn't dare to ask Mr. Pei to repeat it a third time, so he could only sigh, and silently left the office.

Pei Qian showed a satisfied smile.

Lin Wan, I can only help you so far, you must complete the task as soon as possible!

……

Hu Xianbin went back upstairs dejectedly, and sat down at his workstation.

Seeing Hu Xianbin coming back, Min Jingchao immediately moved over.

"How about it, did Mr. Pei agree?"

Hu Xianbin shook his head: "No, President Pei refused."

Min Jingchao was taken aback: "Rejected? Can't you? Mr. Pei has always been generous with the company's various expenses, why is it not allowed to recruit a few new designers? This is a bit unscientific."

Hu Xianbin sighed: "Hey, I don't know what Mr. Pei thinks, but his attitude is indeed very firm, saying that not only can't make an exception for early recruitment, but we can't recruit too many people in the recruitment one month later. "

Min Jingchao frowned, puzzled: "Why did Boss Pei say such a thing for no reason? Did he say something else?"

"Generally speaking, there will be some hidden clues in Mr. Pei's words."

Hu Xianbin tried hard to recall: "Let me think about it..."

"He seems to have said that a large number of people may be a treasure, or it may be a cage."

"However, this sentence doesn't seem to have any deep meaning..."

"Why don't you ask Sister Li and Brother Bao for advice?"

Min Jingchao shook her head: "I think, don't always leave it to Brother Bao when you encounter analysis questions. In Tenda, reading Mr. Pei's intention is a necessary skill, and we need to practice more."

Hu Xianbin thought for a while: "That's right. But, what Mr. Pei said this time really doesn't seem to have any deep meaning? I still don't have a clue."

Min Jingchao frowned, lost in thought.

After a long time, his brows relaxed slightly.

"From the original point of view, this sentence means that every designer has different ideas. It is true that more people can provide different angles, ideas and ideas, but so many angles, ideas, and ideas are all combined in the Together, it becomes a cage."

"Other people's perspectives, ideas and ideas will in turn limit your thinking, and likewise, your ideas will also limit other people's thinking."

"If everyone does their own thing, it will hinder each other and reduce efficiency."

"So, making new heroes for GOG is a tiring job, and it's also a technical job. It needs to continue to produce creativity. The key is not that there are too many people, but whether the main designer can accurately control the direction of the game."

"No matter how many designers are recruited, in the end, only one person can make the decision, unify the style, and at the same time make overall plans for the balance of the game, otherwise the game will become a stitch monster."

Hu Xianbin is no stranger to this method of interpretation, and immediately understood: "Well, it makes sense!"

"But that still doesn't solve the problem."

"Everyone's ability to produce ideas is limited. There are too few people and there is not enough inspiration. You can do the overall planning, but you still need people to provide inspiration and design different new heroes."

Min Jingchao fell into deep thought again, this time thinking for a longer time.

After a long time, he said slowly: "It seems, not necessarily."

"It's true that everyone has limited inspiration and limited ideas. However, designers are not the only ones who can provide inspiration and design new heroes."

"Mr. Pei expressed a kind of dialectical thinking. He did not deny the power of a large number of people. His original words were 'it may be a treasure, or it may be a cage'. We only analyzed the side of the 'cage', but did not delve into it." Treasure' side."

"No matter how many designers are recruited, how can it compare with the wisdom of the majority of players?"

"The designer is just a small treasure, but the player is the big treasure."

"Boss Pei doesn't let us hire designers because it doesn't fundamentally solve the problem and is inefficient."

"That is to say... we can let players also participate in the design of GOG's heroes!"

"No matter how fast ioi's hero development is, so what? If we can really fully mobilize the enthusiasm of players, then inspiration and ideas will be inexhaustible!"

Hu Xianbin suddenly said: "It makes sense!"

"So Pei always meant that?"

"Indeed, fully mobilize the enthusiasm of the players, let the players provide ideas and content, and then our designers only need to be responsible for screening, modification, balancing and other work, which perfectly solves this problem!"

Min Jingchao stood up suddenly: "I'm going to make an activity plan now!"

……

After dismissing Hu Xianbin, Pei Qian chased the show for a while.

Looking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

"It's been a long time since I saw Lao Ma, let's go to Yuanmeng Venture Capital."

Only then did Pei Qian remember that he had been wanting to go to Yuanmeng Venture Capital to ask Lao Ma about the investment projects he was optimistic about, but he forgot when he was too busy.

The weather is fine today, so you can go out for a stroll, and take a look at the recent situation of Lao Ma and Yuanmeng Venture Capital.

Pei Qian had agreed with Lao Ma before to let him find a suitable project and notify himself as soon as possible.

However, after such a long time, there has been no movement from the old horse.

Pei Qian couldn't help but wonder, what the hell is Ma Yang up to?

He is not worried about Ma Yang spending money secretly, because since the last investment in Finger Company, Pei Qian has asked Yuanmeng Ventures to obtain his own approval for all investments.

Now that no one has asked for instructions, it means that Yuanmeng Venture Capital didn't spend a penny.

So here comes the question, since Ma Yang didn't spend any money, what is he doing?
