I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

"You are probably planning to operate this Stone Age mobile game in Asia first, and then sell it to a Chinese game company to make some money after the game becomes out of fashion." Chen Xi looked at the other party and said with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Chenyuan's old face turned red.

This is how game companies in Korea play now. After Korea’s PC game Legend was promoted in the mainland by Sheng Xiao Company, the Koreans discovered this business opportunity.

They will first operate the game in their home country or Asia for a period of time. After a few years when the game stops making money, they will hand it over to Chinese companies to make another profit.

Anyway, many Chinese gamers have never seen games from Korea and Japan. They only know Steam at best. This method has been tried and tested. Game companies from Korea and Japan have taken out a lot of old IPs to rehash them, and then sold them to Chinese companies. Penguin Games also spent a lot of money to buy copyrights from them, and both sides made a fortune.

Seeing that he had hit the nail on the head, Chen Xi continued, "Stone Age is a relatively unique game. Currently, whether it is a mobile game or a PC game, characters are divided into different professions. For example, in World of Warcraft, there are mages, warriors, and thieves. There is a saying that each version has its own god, and the planners continue to release new professions, which has also led to the game balance becoming worse and worse. However, Stone Age is different from these games. It has no professions. The strength of the characters is determined only by the points and equipment researched by the players. The PC version of Stone Age itself is an online game that follows a turn-based route, but this needs to be changed for a mobile game. Mobile games emphasize playing as you please, while PC versions of Stone Age, like Fantasy, emphasize teamwork. Most people will not hold their phones for a long time every day to team up to fight monsters."

"Then let's not do the turn-based system?" Li Chenyuan's brows were furrowed like twists.

He actually hadn't played Stone Age before, but had someone directly remake the PC version of the game with a fancy graphics. What Chen Xi just said meant that he was now on the wrong path.

"Not really. Turn-based team games are all about five players. You can use a mirror team, which is a one-to-four method, but this will reduce a lot of social attributes."

"Mirror image team?"

"It means copying your own character, from one to five. Or in other words, one account can create five characters, but they can form a team."

"This is a good idea." Li Chenyuan suddenly realized.

"But I don't think your first Stone Age mobile game should be made like this." Chen Xi said again.

"Oh? Then what should I do?"

"You can use a turn-based gameplay similar to card games, and the graphics can imitate the PC game. That is, there is no need to form a team. A player can bring 5 or even 10 pets to replace the combat power of other players. Pets can be obtained through card drawing, synthesis, capture, and exchange..."

Hearing this, Li Chenyuan was as excited as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Mr. Chen, you know a lot about games. Let's talk about the IP issue of Tianya now. You know, the anime like Fights Break Sphere, which is very popular in your country recently, has already spread to the island country and the Korean country. The anime is in the style of the island country, which is the same as the style of the games between our two countries. Many games in the Korean country are adapted from novels. In the past, our Korean novels were ahead of yours, but now the situation is reversed. Most of the online literature in the Korean country is fantasy-based, while you in China have more types, such as fairy tales and fantasy. Adapting these themes into games can make them more acceptable to Asians..." At this time, Jin Dongjian spoke.

Indeed, Korea’s online literature market used to be pretty good, with many excellent works produced, and some of them were even made into large-scale online games.

For example, the "Rune Children" that Chen Xi used to love to watch was later made into an online game "Chain of Skywings", which is a game comparable to RO.

The fantasy novel "Dragon Clan" written by Korean writer Li Rongdao has also been made into a game similar to Diablo and Legend.

Those Korean TV dramas were all adapted from domineering CEO novels. The Korean novel market was indeed very hot in the past.

However, with the rise of Chinese online literature, the Korean novel market has declined.

Jin Dongjian wanted to cooperate with Chen Xi to jointly create an overseas version of the novel website.

The collaboration changed from gaming to online literature, which was somewhat unexpected to Chen Xi.

With the idea that it would be a jerk not to make money even if he has the chance, he did not reject the other party's proposal.

After chatting for a while, Chen Xi found an opportunity to ask, "Jin Dongjian, your last name is Jin. Have you ever heard of Jin Junxiu?"

Jin Dongjian was stunned when he heard this, and after thinking about it, he shook his head.

"Their family seems to be quite famous in your place. Although they are not a big chaebol, they should be strong." Chen Xi gave a hint. He actually didn't know the situation of Jin Nana's family.

"There are many people in Korea with the surname Kim, just like you with the surname Zhang, Li, and Wang. If you want to talk about a chaebol with the surname Kim...it might be the Hanwha Group." Jin Dongjian thought for a moment and gave an ambiguous answer.

"Oh? There doesn't seem to be anyone named Kim Junsu in this Hanwha Group..." Chen Xi shook his head. He had roughly looked through the information of Hanwha Group before and didn't find his old acquaintance.

In terms of company revenue, Hanwha Group ranks last among the top ten chaebols in Korea, but ranks third in military industry. Its main businesses are military industry, solar energy, finance, aerospace, etc.

Overall, Hanwha belongs to the second tier in Korea.

"Then I don't know." Jin Dongjian spread his hands.

"Um...is the prince of SK Group married? The one who is Choi Jong-seng..." Chen Xi asked in a different way.

He remembered that Jin Nana seemed to have mentioned this before.

"No, things like this usually make the news. If they did, I would definitely know about it."

"Does this Choi Jong-seng have a fiancée?"

"This... I don't know either. After all, it's someone else's private matter."

Since he knew nothing about anything, Chen Xi just gave up.

"You care so much about this Jin Junxiu, he must have been your good friend in the past." Jin Dongjian looked curious.

"Ah? Yes, yes, very good friends." Chen Xi nodded desperately, trying not to laugh.

"Then I can help you keep an eye out for news about him. After all, the country of Kimchi is so small."

"That's great, but please don't tell anyone that it was me who came to find him. I really want to give him a surprise."

"I understand. We haven't seen each other for so many years, so we must give him a big surprise. When he suddenly sees you, he will be so moved that he will cry." Jin Dongjian made an OK gesture.

"Yes, yes, that's right. If we want to maintain our friendship, we must make the other party remember it forever." Chen Xi took Jin Dongjian's hand and shook it, as if he had something important to ask him to do.

Seeing that the matter was almost settled, Chen Xi invited the two to go out for dinner.

Oh my god, it’s raining outside the headquarters gate in Huajing, which is a rare occurrence.

In this dry northern city, the annual rainfall is still very limited compared to the south. The sky was low, and Jin Dongjian stood under the eaves at the entrance of the headquarters and looked up, only to see a turbid lead-gray mass hanging above his head, as if someone had turned a soup pot upside down over Huajing.

At this moment, dense rain threads carrying suspended particles weave a gray net between the sky and the earth. The CBD towers, which are already shrouded in smog for more than 30 floors, look more and more like faded ink paintings in the rain.

Suddenly, a few drops of rain fell on the beige cashmere coat, spreading ink spots.

He looked closely, put his index and middle fingers together and rubbed the surface, and his fingertips were immediately covered with black and gray particles. The next second, Jin Dongjian's eyes widened.

This looks like mud...

Chen Xi, who was standing next to him, also witnessed this scene, but he was not surprised because he was used to it in his previous life.

"Mr. Chen, this... this should be mud..." Seeing that the people next to him didn't react, Jin Dongjian stretched out his hand and showed it in front of Chen Xi.

At this moment, in an official conference hall in Huajing.

The LED screen in the conference room flashed dazzling data: the daily average of PM2.5 was 786 micrograms per cubic meter, and sulfur dioxide exceeded the standard by 17 times. At the conference table, Huajing's deputy manager used a laser pen to point at the rising pollution curve on the projection screen. The collar of his gray shirt was stained with black rain stains from when he met the people for research this morning.

"This is a sample of pollution crystals sent in by the street this morning. Sulfate accounts for 38%, and the proportion of motor vehicle exhaust derivatives has increased by 9 percentage points compared to last year." The head of the Environmental Protection Bureau pushed over the glass dish, and the brown particles glowed with a cold metallic light under the spotlight.

The leader of the Development and Reform Commission rubbed his temples and said: "We must take mobile source control as a breakthrough point. Huajing currently has 540 million motor vehicles, and the number is still increasing at a rate of 24 vehicles per year. This plan clearly states that by 2017, all yellow-label vehicles in the city must be eliminated..."

The director of the Energy Office coughed lightly. In front of him was a copy of the "Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Fifth Phase of Vehicle Fuel Standards". "Sinopec Yanshan Petrochemical is currently upgrading its catalytic cracking unit and will fully supply gasoline and diesel that meet the National Five Standards by the end of the year. The sulfur content can be reduced from 50ppm to 10ppm."

"It's not enough." The female leader of the Transportation Commission took off her glasses: "We have calculated that even if we implement odd-even number restrictions all day, the traffic speed on the West Second Ring Road during the morning rush hour will still be less than 15 kilometers per hour." The electronic map on the projector flashed large red spots, representing real-time congestion. The color blocks were spreading like cancer along the Third Ring Road.

"Last night's monitoring of flying dust deposition showed that there were 32 types of heavy metals in every square meter of road surface sediment." The newly transferred inspector of the Ministry of Environmental Protection cleared his throat. The meteorological satellite cloud map on the projector showed that the entire North China Plain was being slowly swallowed up by the gray-yellow air mass.

The administrator of Huajing City picked up the document and read: "From 2014, the city will prohibit yellow-label vehicles from entering the Fifth Ring Road. Chapter 8, Article : The municipal finance will provide a subsidy of yuan for the replacement of new energy vehicles. Chapter , Article "

The entire meeting was centered around the "Air Pollution Prevention and Control Action Plan," which is to strengthen the comprehensive control of air pollution in industrial enterprises, comprehensively rectify small coal-fired boilers, and accelerate the construction of centralized heating, "coal to gas," and "coal to electricity" projects. Accelerate the construction of desulfurization, denitrification, and dust removal renovation projects in key industries, and promote the control of volatile organic compound pollution.

Comprehensively control urban dust, strengthen construction dust supervision, and actively promote green construction. Carry out catering fume pollution control, and urban catering service business premises should install high-efficiency fume purification facilities.

In light of actual industrial development and environmental quality conditions, we will further improve standards for environmental protection, energy consumption, safety, quality, etc., and clearly define the task of eliminating backward production capacity by region.

Increase the intensity of environmental protection, energy consumption, and safety law enforcement and penalties, and establish a mechanism to promote the withdrawal of excess capacity in the "two high" industries based on energy-saving and environmental protection standards.

Strengthen urban traffic management, optimize urban functions and layout planning, and promote intelligent traffic management. Improve fuel quality, accelerate the upgrading and transformation of oil refining enterprises, accelerate the elimination of yellow-label vehicles and old vehicles, and vigorously promote new energy vehicles.

It was after this meeting that the promotion speed of new energy vehicles saw a qualitative leap.

Some car company bosses were grinning so hard that their mouths were almost crooked, but suddenly a new plan was announced from above.

Institutions that have invested in new energy vehicles also secretly gave their thumbs up.

The entire new energy vehicle industry is positive, which has led to certain stocks hitting the daily limit almost every day after the meeting.

A week later, Tu'ao Mo Village.

Returning to the land where he had lived for more than ten years, Chen Xi greedily took a deep breath of fresh air.

He has been breathing in the smog in Huajing recently, and the air in Tu'ao is like a sweet rain, nourishing his dry heart.

I haven't been back for a long time, and the urban construction here is still the same, and there may not be any new changes in the next few decades.

The only thing that made him curious was Carsales’ latest new energy vehicle project.

Chen Xi didn't expect that Norbert actually took what he said casually in Russia last time seriously.

What surprised him even more was that he thought Norbert was just making a small move, but it turned out that the business was taken to the official level and had a relationship with the Minister of Energy.

"Hahaha!" Chen Xi, who was sitting in Real-Car's office, couldn't help but laugh out loud while looking at the report in his hand.

Yuan Shuai, who was standing by, said with a serious face, "You can actually laugh. They are on the list of the Minister of Energy's thighs. This means that Carsales' new energy project has a backer. How can we fight them?"

Chen Xi put down the information in his hand and lit a cigarette slowly. "Well, that's nothing. Things in the political arena change rapidly. Maybe the Minister of Energy will be replaced in the future!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? The election was just over last year!" Yuan Shuai reminded, putting his hands on his hips.

"Remember, this is Australia. They practice liberal democracy, which means the ruling party is not irreplaceable." Chen Xi smoked silently.

If he remembered correctly, Australia would soon undergo earth-shaking changes.

Yuan Shuai didn't understand what Chen Xi was saying, so he could only change the subject: "Carsales' stock price has soared, and Norbert's mouth is already crooked with smiles. Last time, he even happily sent us a bunch of small gifts, saying that he wanted to thank us for our help..."

Just as Yuan Shuai was speaking, Lin Yu walked in from outside in a hurry.

"What's wrong?" Looking at Lin Yu's bad face, Yuan Shuai asked hurriedly.

"Go down and take a look for yourselves! The Carsales people are here again." Lin Yu pointed downstairs.

Hearing what he said, Chen Xi and Yuan Shuai looked at each other and walked outside.

Real-Car first floor lobby.

Norbert was standing there in a happy mood at this moment, and several Carsales employees behind him were holding pizza boxes and drinks in their hands.

"Where's your boss? I'm here to bring him some warmth." Norbert adjusted his tie. (End of this chapter)
