The meeting started, and it turned out to be a meeting in the virtual world.

Chu Pengfei and several of the earliest core personnel showed regretful expressions on their faces.

They thought they could see the shocked expressions of other colleagues, but the two bosses just feinted.

In the conference room, Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan were still the images from "Magic Era".Many people in the company were recruited from "Magic Era", and they were very familiar with and kind to the images of Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan.

Neither Ji Li nor Bai Xiuyan like to talk nonsense during meetings, and they just assign work.

"In the last quarter of this year, our work is divided into two aspects. First, continue to update "Block City", open a creative workshop, extend the life of "Brick City", and let the game designers in the company practice their hands. This aspect of work Bai Xiuyan is in charge."

"Second, make a new game of level-breaking to earn some New Year's money. I originally planned to make a card-drawing game, but the team has not worked together enough. After seeing the production effect of the new game, I will make a card-drawing game to make money. God asked Card-drawing games must also be high-quality goods."

After Ji Li arranged the work plan, the employees looked at each other in blank dismay.

Are these tasks to be completed in the last quarter of this year?How can it be?

They have never heard of the creative workshop or anything. Doesn't this new function need to be tested?

Not to mention new games.Even if the game production of Tianwen Technology is given the green light by the above, after the professional review is completed, it can be reviewed and released in three working days, but how can a game be produced in less than four months from production to testing?

Many employees have work experience in game studios and even major game manufacturers.The game starts from the idea of ​​the main planner to the end of the final test, and I don't know how many times it will be overturned.Could it be that the "new game" Boss Ji Li mentioned was just a start to finalize the idea?

Although Ji Chenxi started school, he had more free time in college, so he also came to the meeting.

Seeing the confusion of the employees, Ji Chenxi scratched her head.

Four full months, isn't it enough to make a small game?

What's the problem?To make games, don’t you just need your hands?

No matter how confused the employees are, they have to wait until the meeting is over before giving their opinions.

Bai Xiuyan first started to talk about his work arrangements.

"The employees of Tianwen must have played "Building Block City" and know that "Building Block City" is very creative. In the creative workshop, we will further open up permissions, and players can directly build new ones in "Building Block City". map, set the plot, upload the creative workshop, and pay for other players to use it.”

"All the works of the creative workshop can be played for free for a period of time, and then paid. If the paying user has too many negative comments, the work will be removed from the shelf, and the player's creative workshop function will be closed..."

Creative workshops were very common in the era of Bai Xiuyan and Ji Li.

When every powerful country has developed a game editor that can be used cheaply by game designers, game production will no longer have a high cost threshold.Game designers accept the benefits of sharing and are willing to share their games to help more people who want to enter the industry.

Later, they discovered that the creative workshop can not only help others, but also revitalize their own games.This makes small games that do not focus on plots and worldviews follow suit and add the function of creative workshops.

Of course, the most suitable for creative workshops are sandbox games.

"The incident of the gang editor in "Magic Era" has brought out many powerful newcomer game designers around the world. It can be seen that what game designers lack is only opportunities. Now all countries are developing new game editors. The threshold will be further lowered. But even lower, game design also requires certain technical requirements.”

"In our "Building Block City", making games does not require technical requirements. When someone who is interested in game design makes a work that other players like through "Building Block City" and achieves the first success, they may There will be motivation to learn how to use the game editor and enter the game design industry."

"Game production in "Block City" is basically free, you only need to buy our game. Even if there is an official game editor in the future, funds will be needed to buy resources. Some game designers with little cash can also use our Brick City as a practice place. This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.”

"As far as we are concerned, the development potential of Building Block City is great, but we are short of manpower and need to continue to develop other game fields. At least Ji Li and I are not interested in sticking to one game. Players' creativity is pouring in, definitely Can increase the lifespan of the game..."

After Bai Xiuyan explained the reasons for setting up the creative workshop, he listed the work contents in detail one by one.

From the establishment of the creative workshop to the relevant audit rules and regulations, the work plan given by Bai Xiuyan is very complete. The employees only need to take the work they want to do and complete it.

After listening to the work schedule, the employees in charge of updating "Building Block City" suddenly realized that these tasks can be completed in less than a month, let alone four months?

The four months also included the time for them to make some creative games and revitalize the creative workshop of "Building Block City".

This part of the creative game is also their extra money, enjoying the same share as the players, which is considered as a commission from their work.

Whoever has an excellent creative game can be trained as a key player and enter the new game project team.

Gan!Can game updates and maintenance also have a commission? !It's on fire!

After Bai Xiuyan finished talking about the content of the creative workshop of "Building Block City", Ji Li took the stage to talk about the preparations for the new game.

Ji Li originally planned to create a card-drawing game or a disguised card-drawing game to make a lot of money, but after reading the work reports of the employees, he felt that the team was not working together enough to cope with the huge group of "free" players, so he had to make a paid game first. Try the small game operation.

Both Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan have done variety show break-through games, and they are quite introverted.Now the two of them have stitched together the introverted game and turned it into a new game of Tianwen.

The name of the game is very useless, it is called "Crossing Levels!"Humanity! ", there are three modes in total.

The first mode is multiplayer.A group of players run from the starting point to the finish line, and are constantly eliminated until only two players are left for a peak duel;

The second mode is team break through.Players are divided into several groups randomly or online by themselves, reach the end by helping each other, and calculate the time of the first person arriving in each team;

The third mode is also for players to cooperate, but not to compete.Players can team up in twos or threes to go to the finish line together, which is a relatively harmonious and friendly couple friendship game mode.

The playable point of the first mode is to cheat each other; the second mode needs to help each other while cheating each other; the third mode is purely helping each other.

Of course, this is just the setting of the game.When it comes to actually playing, they may all be pitting each other.

In order to reduce the pain of the player after being cheated, the character model should be designed as funny as possible; after the competition fails, the wandering mode can be turned on to watch other players play; after a game is over, the player can choose to start over or continue to watch the players of this round duel.Speed ​​up the pace of the game as much as possible.

Ji Li's job arrangement is the same as Bai Xiuyan's, with every detail in mind, even the initial map and player image have been considered. The employees learn the essence of the game during the game making process, and then add their own ideas in subsequent updates. create elements.

The work arrangement is over, and the employees are dumbfounded again.

Employees who have worked in other places have never thought that they have such a clear idea of ​​​​game production.

The boss has considered all aspects of the problem, they only need to complete the arranged work plan.Isn't it enough to have hands?A college student who has never played a game can do it!

After the work arrangement, Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan allowed the employees to raise their hands to speak.

Ji Chenxi is also the boss, he doesn't need to raise his hand, he speaks directly.

"Uh, this work will take four months?" Ji Chenxi didn't understand, "Can it be done in one month?"

Ji Li said helplessly: "There are so many people in the company now, the work efficiency can't be as high as when there were only three of us. Give them some time to learn and get used to it."

The hands that the employees were going to raise silently put down.

Ah, this...we are trash, we are dragging down the work efficiency of the bosses, I am really sorry.

No one raised questions about work arrangements—if anyone did, the meeting must have been distracted.

The leaders of each department spoke in turn, trying to give full play to their subjective initiative and actively looking for work.

For example, Shang Xuezhen asked if it is possible to process what Bai Xiuyan said about the creative workshop and promote it as an advertisement for the creative workshop.

The trio of CEOs of Tianwen Technology have been willing to share from the beginning, and they can't wait to share all their experiences.The creative workshop just adhering to the concept of the three bosses.

Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan were indeed happy to share.

If it wasn't that they didn't have to play, why did they bother to make games so early to start their careers?

They just think of all the games, and then tempt other game designers to expand their game list.

For example, they are not interested in "Building Block City" now, but when the creative workshop is launched, they will finally have something to play.

In the final analysis, the game editor has not kept up, and the concept of Donghuang game designers has not kept up. The speed of game development is too slow.

They can't wait to wave their little leather whips and whip the game designers behind their buttocks, run hard for me!I'm bored to death!Make me a new game!

"Do you understand everything?" The meeting was about to end, and Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan asked again.

The employees nodded vigorously.

I get it, I get it, I've already fed the food to my mouth, if I don't understand it, then I'm really a fool!

It only takes one month for the boss to go out on his own, and we can shorten the time to two months anyway, so we can't really be a waste!

Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan were very moved by their enthusiasm for work, but stopped them from working overtime unnecessarily.

"The operation and maintenance of the game is nothing more than that. Some shifts have to be overtime, and everyone rotates. But in other aspects, overtime is absolutely not allowed." Ji Li said, "Our company does not work overtime. If you want to get together in private, get together in private."

The employees were very moved and puzzled.

Is this too idealistic?What if the worker process is too slow?Can it be dragged on indefinitely?

Bai Xiuyan added: "If the work process is too slow and you can only work overtime, then the team leader will submit an application for overtime work. Although the overtime pay will not reduce you, the whole company will publicly criticize and affect individual assessment. Our game editing tool It is more advanced than those on the market, and our work plan is detailed enough that there is no room for you to work overtime."

The employees were touched... beyond touched.

It was the first time that overtime work was reported and criticized.

Although they also believe that it is absolutely impossible to work overtime according to the work plan, the bosses are too strict.

"Our company is not an iron rice bowl. I hope you will cherish this job opportunity without overtime. If you don't cherish it, we can only ask you to go to other wolves who are not allowed to leave early even if the work is finished and must stay. A sex culture company has just started working." Bai Xiuyan smiled.

Employees: "..." Is this a threat?Boss Boss is definitely a threat, right?

Ji Li also smiled: "Bo Xiuyan, who are you scaring? It's not that wolf cultural enterprises are not allowed to leave without work, but continue to increase work after completing the work plan. How can we be so lazy like us? What is the plan is what it is, finish it in advance and take a rest early. There must be employees who don’t like our lazy corporate culture, and we respect individual choices.”

Employees: "..." Well, they get it, this is a threat.

"No, no, no wolf culture, no overtime."

"Boss, I will work hard, and I will definitely not be eliminated to the Wolf Culture Company!"

"Rest as long as the work is done? Really? Boss, don't lie to us!"

"Can I secretly take my work home?"

"Of course not. All the work tools in the company are specially customized. They cannot be copied and packaged to take away. They can only be made in the company."

"What about copywriting and painting?"

"If copywriting and painting do not procrastinate, they can definitely be completed during working hours."

"The boss said that the copywriting and drawings are also produced by the company's computer, and private copies are not allowed. Don't think about going to work to catch fish and go home to work overtime."

"Okay, procrastination master green knot."

"Ooooh, can't wait to get to work!"

……

The employees were served by Ji Li and Bai Xiuyan with sticks and candies, and all of them were on fire.

Many employees who have experience in game production are gearing up.Directly follow the bosses to make games with clear goals, and then learn from the boss's game making experience in the production project. This is just like a university teacher giving a lecture, teaching you how to make games.

You still don't cherish such an opportunity, are you worthy of the hard work the boss has put in?

Looking at the detailed work plan and game design plan that the bosses put forward, you can see how much hair the bosses have spent in private.

Employees don't work overtime, but the boss works overtime every day, what kind of spirit is this!This is the entrepreneurial spirit of the new era!

Woohoo, I'm so moved, I have to go online and blow it up anonymously.

As a result, a group of employees of the Versailles game company appeared on various forums and social tools.

Our company does not allow overtime.

The boss of our company works overtime by himself.

The boss of our company arranges everything just like mom and dad, we just need to do it step by step according to the work plan.

Our company is too boring. You don’t have to be tossed about by the endless whimsy of the leadership, you don’t have to worry about getting more and more work after you finish the job, and you don’t have to worry about interpersonal communication. How can there be such a boring company.

The hair of the programmers in our company seems to be the most hairy among all game production companies, hahahahaha!

Programmers from other companies were working overtime while catching fish and brushing posts.

They were collectively lost in thought.

So how does such a good company treat you?I don't believe that big factories don't get involved!You must be a small game studio that generates power for love!

"Generating electricity for love is definitely generating electricity for love, but the salary is also quite high."

"I won't say much, and I'll lose my horse if I say it. Anyway, it's not as good as a big factory, and it's more than enough for food and clothing. It's definitely not as good as you, hehehe."

"Yeah, we just generate electricity for love. What? Look down on generating electricity for love?"

"Who said we are advertising for the company? Our company still needs to advertise to recruit people? It's a joke. The job fair is overcrowded and it's super hard to get in, okay?"

"Stop talking, don't talk, more people will come to grab their jobs if you talk too much."

"I can't help it. We are not allowed to work overtime. When we are bored, we can only post. It is not as fulfilling as their lives. We have to realize our self-worth outside of working hours. We are all a bunch of lazy and useless people."...

The hands of programmers working overtime in other companies trembled slightly, and their scalps shone with a heart-pounding glow.

Damn it!Report to the company if you have the ability!Let's come to real K!

Anonymity on the Internet is not absolutely safe, and it is easy to find out the real person from the clues of historical messages.What's more, the irony of this group of people is programmers who know a lot about the Internet.

Soon, the origins of this Versailles group were revealed—someone’s unhidden historical message once celebrated their entry into the idol’s company.

Who else is a big company run by the idol of a game designer?

Well, the case is solved.

Wish there was only one!Tianwen Technology, it turned out to be you!

The programmers' sarcasm stuck in their throats, and they almost suffocated themselves.

Forget it, they also admire the three bosses of this company, so they can't start with the satirical company.

"Working with three god-level game designers, are you amazing?"

"What can you learn just by playing? You have to learn from nothing like us, so that you can learn something."

"That's right, isn't your job just to have hands? You haven't exercised your ability to withstand stress, you haven't exercised your ability to deal with Party A, and you haven't exercised your ability to deal with idiot leaders and colleagues. Is there any way for you to leave Tianwen Technology? A delicate flower growing in a greenhouse, hehe."

"I suggest that you resign as soon as possible. Tianwen Technology may seem beautiful, but in fact it cannot exercise your personal abilities."

"That's right, newcomers should still suffer a little bit of tempering and resign quickly."...

Programmers go first, followed by employees from other game companies.

Planning and operation copywriting and art have started to "swear war" one after another, complaining that Tianwen Technology "destroys the ecology of the industry".

This "war of scolding" was transferred to the Internet, and the netizens flocked to it like hungry people, crazily grabbing melons to eat.

But the joys and sorrows of human beings are not the same. Netizens paid a little attention to the terrible work pressure and work intensity in the game industry, and then turned their attention to another point.

"You mean, Tianwen Technology has a new game? The new game will be released soon? What is the new game! Please spoiler!"

"No way, no way, the game is about to be released, why isn't there even an advance promotion? Other game companies start promoting when they create a folder, why does Tianwen Technology only promote before it goes on the shelves every time! "

"Is there a follow-up major update for "Block City"? Or is it a free update? This is too conscientious. I suggest that you pay for the supplementary content directly. I feel uneasy if I am so conscientious."

"I can still play "Building Block City" for at least half a year. I didn't expect a new game to come? Tianwen's technology is awesome! This kind of production capacity is too powerful!"

"The employees who didn't listen to Tianwen said that Tianwen's game production is that the boss does all the preparatory work himself, and the employees can do it if they have hands. Can you not hurry up?"

"It's the same as when drawing a picture. The boss not only outlines the line drawing, but also writes how to color it with the same color. You only need to paint and refine it, and I can do it myself."

"Is it a free game or a paid game? Although the paid game is very good, I somehow want to play the free game of Tianwen Technology. I don't know if the free game of Tianwen Technology will be different from the mobile game of changing skins and drawing cards."

"I don't hate the mode of drawing cards, but please change the skin if you don't want the content. Mobile games also need gameplay, and the collision of vertical pictures is terrible."

……

"Here we come! Tianwen Technology's advertising department finally stopped pretending to be dead, and announced in advance the game update of "Building Block City" and the game concept of the new game "Let's break through! Human!"!"

The very indifferent official blog of Tianwen Technology, which often pretends to be dead, finally posted two enthusiastic blog posts in succession.

"Brick City" major update!The creative workshop is waiting for you to play!The kindest game designer is you!Million Game Designer Incentive Program!

"Let's break through!Humanity! 》Game concept map released!Cooperation, confrontation!Competition, friendship!A family carnival game suitable for Donghuang Spring Festival!

The two blockbusters exploded, and the players were all elated.

As for the other game manufacturers in Donghuang, it's hard to describe how they feel.

Is it possible that our game will be released on a staggered peak during the great winter holiday and Spring Festival?

Shouldn't it?The paid game of Tianwen Technology does not conflict with our free game of card-drawing and skin-changing, right?

------

When the game promotion was in full swing, Ji Chenxi had already started her intense university study life.

In principle, first-year students of University A must live on campus. Ji Chenxi has already started a business in advance, so naturally he doesn't need it.

As soon as he entered the school, he was a man of the hour.

But the man of the hour is also a marginal figure.Except for professional classes, Ji Chenxi is occupied with work and hardly participates in group activities in the class.

When a girl handed Ji Chenxi a love letter, Ji Chenxi confessed that she had a child, and the child was born by herself, which made Ji Chenxi's life on campus even more lonely.

However, University A is one of the highest institutions of higher education in Donghuang after all, and the atmosphere and atmosphere of the school are good. The fact that Ji Chenxi gave birth by herself did not arouse much public opinion.They just lamented that the legendary god-level game designer was once a poor little child who was abandoned by a scumbag and brought up children alone.

When the news of Ji Chenxi having a child was only circulated anonymously on a small scale on the campus forum of University A, some media reported that Ji Chenxi "tricked a big girl into her belly and caused her to drop out of school" based on the news of "Ji Chenxi's former friend". revisit.

At this time, Ji Chenxi came to the stage on behalf of Tianwen Technology to receive the "Donghuang Best Computer Game" and "Donghuang Best Newcomer Game Designer" awards from the Donghuang Game Association this year.

For a while, gossip about Ji Chenxi's chaotic private life was rampant.

Students of University A:? ? ?

Wait, didn't Ji Chenxi give birth to that child?Where is the girl!
