Game Development Giant

When Jester rushed to Clement Card Company, he discovered a strange scene.

Because the design of the new card game has just been completed, only a few samples have been produced, and promotion has not yet begun. Clement’s previous sales staff are basically helping to expand the sales channels of Game magazine, so The current Clement Company is relatively quiet.

For example, many employees openly gather to play this card game during work hours under the pretext of testing new products.

This made Jester a little bit dumbfounded. After all, no boss likes his employees to be idle during work, but the problem is that trying out his company's new products is not considered idle.

Jester didn't notify Clement Company before he came, so when he just walked into Qin Duanyu's studio, he saw a group of people gathered together, shouting and playing with the model they just designed. The scene of the card game called World Storm.

Jester didn't stop them, he just watched quietly.

Although he doesn't like his employees doing other things during working hours, a product that even his employees don't like is destined to have no future.

Halfway through the game, Clement's employees also noticed that Jester was watching with interest.

I suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

But when Jester saw it, he just smiled and said: It's okay, you continue, just treat this as the first evaluation of this card game. After playing, write an evaluation report to see if this card game has any future.

After receiving Jester's affirmative and accurate reply, these Clement Company employees began to play again, but Jester felt that because he was here, they were not having as much fun as when he first came in, so He had no choice but to nod to Qin Duanyu, who was not participating in the game and was only watching from the side, and motioned for the other party to come out with him.

In the office, Jester and Qin Duanyu sat opposite each other.

The two chatted about what happened during the design of the original card design. Qin Duanyu also took out a large stack of manuscript paper from his studio, which was the original manuscript of part of the illustration.

Jester was in China before, so he hadn't seen it before. This was also the first time he saw the original illustrations of The World.

Jester didn't know much about European history, but he only analyzed some of the characters he knew. Qin Duanyu's team also did some research on the images of some European historical celebrities in the minds of ordinary people. At least they I think this Charlemagne is very good.

While looking through the manuscript, Jester nodded. Suddenly, his movements stopped, and then Jester looked up at Qin Duanyu, who was sitting opposite him, with a surprised look in his eyes.

He actually saw an illustration of Guan Yu, with a long beard, a green hat, a red face, and a big sword. This image is really too classic.

Haha. Qin Duanyu just smiled when he saw Jester's expression. He simply said, I was just a little tired when I was drawing these Europeans, so I drew a few pictures from the history of the Celestial Dynasty. You can also find a lot of inspiration by using famous celebrities to change your thinking, and...

When Jester saw that Qin Duanyu seemed to be hesitant to speak, he smiled nonchalantly and said, It's nothing, just say it.

Actually, it's just my opinion. Qin Duanyu frowned and thought for a while before speaking, Because I got your specific gameplay settings of this card game before, and I thought it was quite interesting from the beginning. , very suitable for a group of people to play together when gathering together. When I was drawing these character illustrations, I felt that it might be suitable to make a similar card game with the background of the Three Kingdoms based on the setting you made, so I decided I drew a few images of people during my break.”

Jester nodded. He didn't expect that Qin Duanyu, a painter, had such a keen eye. When he first made the setting of this card game, he copied many places from later Three Kingdoms. Although Three Kingdoms has already been used in the later stages. It was badly broken, but when it came to the standard package, the quality was nothing to say.

However, he has no intention of launching a Three Kingdoms version specifically, because launching a Three Kingdoms version will not have any audience at all. He also loves the Three Kingdoms very much, but he cannot do things based on personal preferences.

Well, it is true that the setting of the three countries pack at the beginning was based on the Three Kingdoms, but the several forces are not important, and this is not the core of this card game... I have no intention of making a Three Kingdoms pack specifically. Yes, I had plans to add the Chinese dynasty pack when I continued to add country card packs, but I will leave this for later. The main task now is to make the two British ones first. Bags, Elizabeth bag and Victoria bag, this is also my gimmick to promote this card game in Europe, especially the UK.

Jester also explained.

Qin Duanyu also sighed and nodded to express his understanding. Originally, he had no intention of convincing Jester to make a Three Kingdoms version that was exactly the same as World Storm. He just thought it might be interesting to make a Three Kingdoms version, and He was also somewhat satisfied when he heard that Jester planned to add the content of the Celestial Dynasty in the later stage.

After all, there is basically no market for promoting the background of the Three Kingdoms in Europe and the United States, and even the content about China can only be done as ancillary parts.

In fact, Jester did not intend to promote the history of China when making the card packs of China. It is just because it is easy to earn money from fans by constantly releasing card packs. Some fans just like to collect such cards, and they continue to add more. One of the greatest joys of card games.

Although these additional cards are of little use.

This time Jester went to the UK not alone, but included the legal team and the marketing team, gathering many people from Fengxing Publishing and Mars Entertainment. Adam Edgar also went with him, and as Jester Barrister Howard, head of legal affairs at Special Group.

Originally, Carly Terry was going to let Margaret Whitman lead the popular publishing team this time, but Adam Edgar took the initiative to take on the task.

The reason was simple, he wanted to go to Wembley to watch Queen's concert.

Jester went to the mainland before saying that he was going to invest, but it was mainly for an examination, so he could go alone and did not need to bring a special team. After the examination was completed and the decision was made, he really had to go there. Only when investing in the mainland will they send their own team to the mainland.

But this time Jester went to the UK not to test whether Europe is suitable for investment. He just went to invest. It was imperative for him to establish a European issuing company as soon as possible. After all, he planned to do so in the first quarter of 2085. We are going to sell our own console around the world, so a complete team is a must.

Of course, a dedicated charter plane is also necessary.

After boarding the plane and waiting boredly for the plane to take off, Jester wondered whether he would be flying more and more across countries or long distances within the United States in the future. Do he need to buy a dedicated aircraft for the company? Business jet?

But after just thinking about it, Jester threw this idea away. Now is not the time for him to waste money. He needs to spend too much money. An income of hundreds of millions of dollars seems like a lot, but In the face of his real plan, it was just a drop in the bucket.

For example, the research and development cost of a top-level arcade base version requires hundreds of millions of dollars.

But once his console is released next year, money will not be a problem for him.

After all, arcade machines only account for a very small part of the entire electronic game industry. The only ones that can really make big money in electronic games are home consoles.

It takes a full eleven hours to fly from Los Angeles to London. The time in between is extremely long, so Jester put on an eye mask and started sleeping not long after the plane took off. Moreover, he had no appetite. After all, he was The planes chartered by US Airways don't have the kind of aged Moutai plus one-meter-long lobster that Continental Airlines offers.

While closing his eyes, Jester was thinking wildly. Somehow, he remembered what Adam Edgar said about the Queen's concert at Wembley Stadium. He liked Queen very much in his previous life. If he had time, he would also go and watch the song. After all, it was less than seven years since the death of the legendary lead singer of Queen, so one of their concerts might be missed.

Of course, he also wanted to watch the game of the team he had loved for more than ten years in his previous life.

It can be regarded as making up for the regrets of the previous life.
