Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 19 Developed Games

Lin's Tea Restaurant.

Upstairs in the room where the Lin family lived, Lin Baicheng was typing codes on the computer to develop his game when he was resting due to dry mouth.

This IBM computer was bought by Lin Baicheng for nearly 20 Hong Kong dollars. There is no way, who made the computer itself very expensive in this era, let alone Lin Baicheng specially bought a computer with higher performance.

It's all about making games.

When Lin Baicheng was preparing to make a game, he thought about what kind of game would be better, and he even thought about it for several days.

Lin Baicheng, who came from 50 years later, has too many classic games in his mind, and it seems that just selling any game can be a big hit.

However, thinking of the computer performance of this era, the funds he has, and the difficulty of developing it alone, Lin Baicheng gave up one game after another, leaving only a few choices.

Tetris, a very classic casual game, Lin Baicheng remembers that it was invented by the Russians in the 80s.

The gameplay of this game is simple.

A variety of boards of different shapes composed of small squares fall from the top of the screen one after another. Players adjust the position and direction of the boards so that they form a complete one or several lines at the bottom of the screen.These complete horizontal bars will disappear immediately to make room for the newly fallen plates, and at the same time, the player is rewarded with corresponding points.The blocks that have not been eliminated will continue to pile up. Once the pile reaches the top of the screen, the player will lose and the game will end.

The gameplay is simple, but it's classic and has a long lifespan.

In fact, Tetris is not very suitable for arcades. It is more suitable for video games, red and white machines, palm-sized portable game consoles and computers. However, Lin Baicheng decided to develop it because he only remembered that this game was a Russian He developed it in the 80s, but he doesn't remember the exact year.

It is now 77 years, if the Russians developed it in 80, it will not be a few years, so Lin Baicheng decided to develop it first, and then take up the pit.

Besides, Tetris is just not so suitable for arcades, and it doesn’t mean that it is not fun to put it on arcades. Its gameplay itself has not changed.

Of course, after Lin Baicheng develops the game, he will definitely not call it Tetris, and the name Xiangjiang Tetris is more suitable for it.In fact, Lin Baicheng thought about using a name like "Chinese Cube", but considering that Hong Kong in this era is still British, and Western countries are not friendly to China, in order to avoid hitting the streets, he still dared not use this name in the end.

In fact, at the very beginning, Lin Baicheng even thought about developing gaming games, which are fruit machines, poker machines and other gaming arcade machines that were very popular in China in the 90s.I believe that those who like to play arcade games will never forget Bao Qingtian Gaming arcade machine. The singing of "There is Bao Qingtian in Kaifeng, who can tell the traitor without selflessness" can be heard in the store all day long.

Gambling and arcade games are very simple to develop, and they can be popular in China in the 90s, and I believe it will also be popular in this era.

However, there are two reasons why Lin Baicheng gave up in the end.One is that Lin Baicheng has other choices, and there is no need to ruin his reputation and the company’s reputation by developing gambling games; the other is that he doesn’t want to deal with black people, at least for now, he’d better not deal with those people, because he has no money and no power If one is not good, it will be swallowed up to the point where there are no bones left.

The risks and benefits are out of proportion, and there are other options, so Lin Baicheng put the gambling game behind him.

The code program took about half an hour, and the throat was almost rested. Lin Baicheng would continue to tell the story, and the scribe would write out the content.

After one day, the novel can still write about [-] words, but now the novel has only more than [-] words left at the end. It only takes a few days to finish writing, and Lin Baicheng can concentrate on developing games by then.

In the evening, my sister Lin Shufang came back from get off work in the factory.

When she first took over the financial work, because Lin Shufang was not a professional, she didn't know how to start. Fortunately, she always remembered that she had to manage money well, so she didn't make a big mistake.

It was much better in the afternoon, and Liu Yihui directly recruited a professional accountant from outside to help Lin Shufang. Only with the assistance of a professional accountant did Lin Shufang know how to do financial work.

Lin Baicheng listened to her talking about why she was not used to today's work, and felt that she couldn't do it, etc. After she finished speaking, she was naturally relieved, saying that no one would be able to do it at the beginning, and he still needed his sister to help him Looking at the money, I hope she doesn't give up.

Of course Lin Shufang wouldn't just give up like this, she was just worried that if she didn't do well, it would bring losses to her younger brother.

In the next few days, Lin Baicheng didn't go to the factory. He didn't go even when he learned from Liu Yihui's call that Wu Jianjun had recruited security guards. He decided to write the novel in one go, and then threw himself into the production of the game. .

After a few days, Lin Shufang also adapted to the financial work with the assistance of professional accountants, and found that the financial work is actually not that difficult.As long as the accounts are managed well, there will be no big mistakes, and small mistakes can be corrected without much impact.

The arcade factory was renamed Xinghe Game Company. After a few days, the employees found that the new boss of the factory had little effect on them. On the contrary, they got 5% more wages one by one, and got benefits.

Only the management knows that the factory no longer assembles arcade machines. After a period of time, it will make games developed by the boss himself. If the games made cannot be sold by then, the factory will definitely be affected, and it will be determined whether it can exist or not. question mark.

On July 1977, 7, the weather was sunny and sunny.

Lin Baicheng's novel "The Wind and Cloud Heroes Overlord the World" has finally been finished. The total number of words is more than 190 million words. The exact number needs to be calculated by newspapers or publishing companies to know.

This book has been written since the beginning of February, and after nearly half a year, it is finally finished.Thanks to Lin Baicheng who hired a professional scribe, he wrote about 60 words every day, and about [-] words in a month.

Although the novel is finished, Lin Baicheng will not give all of it to Star Daily and Haohan Publishing House immediately, but will give them a part according to the corresponding progress of the serialization of the novel.

But for Lin Baicheng, the most important thing is that after the novel is finished, he can finally develop the game wholeheartedly, and then let the factory make the game and start selling the game to make money.

For the game, Lin Baicheng has high hopes, not to mention that it will become popular all over the world immediately, but as long as the market is opened, he will definitely make more money than writing novels.

In the game industry, the market is improving every year, and it is the blue ocean of blue oceans.
