Chapter 72 No Ringing Ball Spicy!

Want it all!
As soon as these words came out, the entire staff was stunned.

Since ancient times, PCs and mobile terminals have often fought because of optimization issues, and console games have independent PS-based players, pointing out the country by the side.

"Hey! This should be optimized like this."

"No, the inside should be changed inside."

PC and mobile: "Take care of yourself!"

(Because of the different programming software of console games, the optimization of porting to other platforms is the most difficult to do)
But now, Mr. Chu wants to open the PC port and the mobile port simultaneously when the game is released.

This is a very bold attempt for the current domestic market.

First of all, from the server, it will directly increase countless costs.

If the accounts are shared.

A player's account goes online on the PC side during the day, and goes online on the mobile phone side at night.

Then the company needs to pay the server fee for both ends.

In addition, it is also necessary to have operation and maintenance personnel responsible for the mobile terminal and the computer terminal respectively.

Double-ended announcements should also be done separately.

Waiting for a series will undoubtedly intensify the cost burning.

Fees increase, but revenue does not increase because of double-ended.

The money recharged on the PC side is also used on the mobile side.

It is equivalent to saying that earning one share of money gives away two shares of strength.

However, Chu Jun is the boss of the company.

The decisions that were made were unquestioned, especially when the first few games were all well-received.

Employees have extra confidence in him.

At Chu Jun's order, [-] employees turned into humanoid machines one after another, and began to devote themselves to game development.

Does Chu Jun have [-] employees?

No.

So after a week of game production, less than 5% of the overall progress has been completed.

This is still when the art and sound effects of some cards are outsourced.

The card game seems to be easy to make, but it is actually very expensive.

The core art part, because every card may become one of the players' favorite cards.

Therefore, each original painting is required to be very delicate.

Under this premise, even Tang Wangyue, a talented painting girl, is trying her best to draw a finished original picture in a day.

According to Mr. Chu's estimation, the number of initially determined cards is around 200.

It is unrealistic to throw all 200 original paintings to Tang Wangyue. Even with a few artists from the company, it is still impossible to complete.

Only part of it can be handed over to art outsourcing.

Even so, other outsourced original drawings were returned by several art studios.

The reason is that Mr. Chu is not satisfied with the pictures produced.

The difference from the original card painting in my impression is too big, it always feels a bit off taste.

After changing the drawing several times, several art studios even cried and refunded the deposit, saying that Party A’s father, we will not draw anymore...

Chu Jun: "..."

In the end, Mr. Chu paid the deposit to the other party, no matter how hard he worked.

We can't ask everyone to be like Tang Wangyue, who is like a humanoid printer, and the composition in his heart can be printed on the paper flawlessly.

But now, a problem has also been seriously exposed.

The company is short of manpower!

Some time ago, Chu Jun asked Xu Nianqing to release the recruitment information.

There are many people who come to interview every day.

After all, the reputation of Junyue Studio has been completely opened up in the industry after "Master of Rhythm".

Every day, countless applicants step on the threshold and flock to them.

The finance, personnel, and legal departments have recruited [-] to [-] C-level employees one after another.

But when it comes to games, there are not many talents in Jianghua City.

Those who can be recruited are almost recruited during the first batch of interviews in the company last time.

Recently, only a dozen or so C-level game employees have been recruited sporadically.

B-level is only recruited one.

Seeing that there are nearly a hundred vacancies left in the system, they can be promoted to small companies.

Chu Jun fell into deep thought.

The path of games is more difficult than he imagined.

Even with fame and resources in hand, too few talents is still a big problem.

There are many C-level or B-level talents, but they are all distributed in other provinces and cities, and most of them even have family members.

With the company's current financial resources, Mr. Chu is not yet able to settle this group of employees.

Just when Chu Jun was worried about where to find people.

Suddenly a phone call came in.

"Hello, Mr. Chu, I'm Ling Tianhang, the former game director of Phoenix Interactive Entertainment. I saw your recruitment information on the Internet. Does your company still need people? I can bring a group of professional teams here."

Chu Jun was stunned for a few seconds.

Then he nodded fiercely.

"Come!"

"Everyone can come!"

Junyue Grand Stage, come if you have a dream!
----

Ling Tianhang resigned from Phoenix Interactive Entertainment, where he had worked for 20 years.

During the most difficult days of the company ten years ago, he did not leave.

Even pleading for unsolicited wage reductions to help the company weather the storm in small ways.

When the game developed by the team was blasted by players all day long on the official website due to improper operation, he did not leave his job.

Just silently take remedial measures to restore word of mouth.

When the company's top executives secretly found Chu Jun and did not communicate with him, they offered him the position of game director, and he did not leave.

After "Master of Rhythm" became popular, his position was temporarily replaced by Zhuang Ding to develop the music century following "Master of Rhythm", but he watched the whole process like an outsider, and Zhuang Ding still messed up the whole project bad.

At this time, he still has not resigned.

When did you start thinking about quitting?
Probably, he found that the company's top management has been in turmoil since a month ago, and there has been a big change.

Perhaps it smelled the promise of the game industry.

The director spent a lot of money to hire a management who has studied abroad as the general manager.

Double Master's Degree in Economics and Management.

After taking the position, he began to interfere with the game project team by all means.

With some operational techniques that even a layman would laugh at, he is forced to intervene in the game operation.

For example.

Speed ​​up the version change, and remove the enhancement limit of some characters or props.

Add additional equipment slots, speed up the output of character clothing, and a series of harvesting plans.

After the leader took over, the Kpi is indeed rising crazily, and the players' intention to krypton gold has increased to a very exaggerated value.

In just one month, compared with the company's performance last month, it has increased by 289.1%
But a real insider can tell it at a glance.

This scythe for harvesting performance was swung at the cost of losing the game's lifespan.

A layman doesn't understand the game, he will only analyze it from the perspective of his economics and management, to make the performance bigger, stronger and more beautiful.

But the game is not as long as a new version is released every day, the equipment can be strengthened infinitely, and the characters have crazy skins, then people will play.

Game balance is always a topic that cannot be avoided.

All games that ignore balance are already so cold that they couldn't be any colder.

Therefore, Ling Tianhang left.

Bringing my dreams and vicissitudes of life in Phoenix Interactive Entertainment for 20 years.

He stayed behind under the symbolic persuasion of company director Li Mei, but he left anyway.

Before leaving, he hugged the office storage box and looked back at the company with nostalgia.

He also took a look at Zhuang Ding who was hesitatingly trying to see him off behind the sensor door.

The two have been fighting for so many years.

Now that I heard that I was leaving, the only person who came to see me off was this old opponent.

He smiled at Zhuang Ding.

Zhuang Ding knew that he couldn't hide anymore, so he walked out of the revolving induction door coyly.

"President Ling...Brother Ling." Zhuang Ding looked at the cardboard box Ling Tianhang was holding in his hand, and changed his words again.

Ling Tianhang put the cardboard box on the ground, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and handed out one.

After the two lit their own fire, they both took a deep sip and remained silent.

"I still remember when you first came to the company, at the age of 25 or [-], you would follow behind my butt all day long, shouting at Brother Ling." Ling Tianhang looked at the pedestrians passing by in the distance, and said with a smile: "In the blink of an eye , how long has it been?"

"Isn't it..."

"People, there is nothing wrong with wanting to climb up. Your starting point, from your own point of view, from the company's point of view, doesn't matter. That's enough." Ling Tianhang interrupted Zhuang Ding and it broke in his throat. sorry.

The two of them are in a competitive relationship in the company, but once they leave the company, they seem to find that the previous life-and-death struggle is meaningless.

"Have you decided where to go?" Zhuang Ding looked at the passers-by who were walking towards him, bent down and lifted Ling Tianhang's office storage box from the ground, moved it to the side, and moved away from the position of the company's gate, and nodded with the passers-by , then turned his head, clapped his hands and said, "I'm still planning to retire."

"Retirement? No, no." Ling Tianhang shook his head and flicked the cigarette ash with his fingers: "It's still too early. As a gamer, I have been in this industry for nearly 20 years. Now I see the game industry If you are promising, how can you be willing to leave?"

"Too."

The two took another puff of cigarettes, and the blue mist they spit out was diluted with the wind.

"I plan to go to Mr. Chu to inquire about the situation."

"Cough...!" Zhuang Ding almost choked.

Zhuang Ding was really impressed when mentioning Mr. Chu.

Just relying on the game "Master of Rhythm", he has slapped faces and conquered the main and deputy directors of the game in the big game factory.

The pioneer of the industry.

The walking pretender king.

If it is said that before the Rhythm Master version was updated, Zhuang Ding still had a critical view of Chu Jun.

Then after the version update, Zhuang Ding was almost worn out and lost his temper.

Chu Jun's understanding of games... is almost 20 years ahead of him.

It was like a game that just opened its server today. He eagerly got into the game and was just about to experience it, but he saw that Chu Jun had been playing Goblin in it for 20 years and reached the full level.

Is this still a joke?
Don't ring spicy!

"Are you sure?" Zhuang Ding actually wanted to ask if he would accept you or not.

After all, it was Ling Tianhang who openly expressed his dislike for Chu Jun in the program before.

"You have to try." Ling Tianhang didn't look at the sidewalk this time, but looked up at the distant sun covered by the clouds: "It's mainly in his hands, I seem to see the future of the game industry."

"Then I wish Brother Ling good luck." Zhuang Ding crushed the cigarette on the trash can.

"Aren't you going to try?" Ling Tianhang sent out an invitation.

Before he left, he used WeChat to send a private chat invitation to everyone in the game department.

Many of the employees under him have worked with him for a long time.

If he continues to stay in Phoenix Interactive Entertainment now, he may not get any good development.

There have been problems at the decision-making level of the company.

It's nothing more than a skinny camel that has been eaten by bugs for a year or so, and now it doesn't look any different.

"I can't do it." Zhuang Ding smiled apologetically: "I can't compare with Brother Ling, the breadwinner can't stand the storm."

Mr. Chu is a real talent.

But no one can guarantee how much stamina this talent has.

The more you are a peer, the more you know the difficulty of new game development.

Even someone as seasoned as Ling Tianhang has led a team to develop many games that have sold out.

What's more, I have only made decisions about the major events in my life a few years ago, and the child has only been born for two years.

There are still many places where money is needed at home.

Zhuang Ding dare not take this risk.

"Then I wish Brother Zhuang a bright future, and I will take a step ahead." Ling Tianhang patted Zhuang Ding's shoulder lightly, and then picked up the office storage box.

Slowly, step by step go far.

Until the back figure is no longer visible at the corner of the intersection.

Only then did Zhuang Ding withdraw his gaze.

In terms of affection, he respects the former boss who led him to start and was both a teacher and an enemy.

Yu Li?

Ling Tianhang left, and as the person with the most experience in game development in the company, he became the new director of Phoenix Interactive Entertainment.

The road ahead is bright and infinite.

I also have the ambition to break out in the game industry.

Become an explosive game designer that players can really remember!
Oh, mere Mr. Chu.

It may not be better than myself who has ten years of rich experience in the industry!

At least, the group of brave and skilled subordinates who took over from Ling Tianhang are all experienced in many battles. In terms of work experience, they must be better than Junyue Studio.

Ling Tianhang compared Chu Jun to the sky?
Then he will win the sky!
very good!Come on!
The next day.

Zhuang Ding briskly carried his briefcase and came to the game department of the company.

After straightening his tie, he stretched out his fist and put it to his mouth, coughing twice.

Waiting for the sound of the respected 'Director Zhuang' to sound.

But I stood at the door for a long time, but I couldn't wait for the greeting.

Zhuang Ding opened his eyes, glanced at the huge office, and was stunned.

The entire office was empty, and hundreds of employees evaporated collectively!
What about people?

I was still here yesterday, so what about a large group of people? ? ?
Why are none of them missing?
"Boy, put your feet up."

At this time, the cleaning aunt who was passing by sweeping the floor saw the dust beside Zhuang Ding's shoes, and took the broom to pat the ground dissatisfied, and reminded.

"Ah... ah, sorry." When Zhuang Ding moved his position, he couldn't help asking aloud.

"Auntie, do you know what's going on with the employees working here?"

He only knew that Ling Tianhang had resigned, but he hadn't heard that these employees would quit...

"Oh, they were still discussing before they got off work last night, saying that they were going to a place where the king, the sun, and the moon are going. I don't understand, I can only clean up."

Have you all gone to Junyue's studio?

slap!

The briefcase in Zhuang Ding's hand hit the ground, his expression dull.

Regarding the fact that the entire game department resigned on my first day as a game director...

It's a fart!

No sound pills are spicy! !
