Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 39 New Game

A week after Lin Baicheng left RB, Miyamoto Soo and Yamada Hideyoshi brought five talents from the game industry to Xiangjiang.

The next day, Lin Baicheng asked five employees to sign contracts with the company. Of course, their treatment cannot be compared with that of Miyamoto Soo.

After that, Lin Baicheng took them to the office rented by the company, which was just downstairs of Yum Securities.

The equipment ordered from IBM had already been delivered the day before yesterday, so when Miyamoto Soo and the others arrived, they could start working immediately.However, before the development of the game begins, Lin Baicheng still needs to explain the game to be developed to them.

Lin Baicheng didn't know Japanese, and Yamada Hideyoshi was arranged by him to return to RB. Fortunately, Lin Baicheng had thought of this a long time ago. He hired a Japanese translator a few days ago, and at the same time worked as his Japanese teacher part-time to teach him Japanese.

"Miyamoto, and you guys, I will name the game I want to develop this time "Pac-Man."

"The gameplay of this game is mainly that the player controls the protagonist of the game, the elf, to eat all the beans in the maze, and at the same time cannot be caught by the ghost in the maze."

"In my setting, there are flashing props in the four corners of the maze. I call them Dali Pills. After the elves eat Dali Pills, they can eat ghosts in reverse for a certain period of time. During this time, ghosts will Dodge the elf, but the speed of the ghost will slow down. If the ghost is eaten, it will die, and after a certain period of time, it will be revived in the haunted house and hunt down the elf again."

"Of course, as time goes by, as the beans are gradually eaten, the effective time of the Dali Pill will become shorter and shorter, and the speed of the ghost will become faster and faster."

Lin Baicheng paused after saying one sentence, so that the translator could translate it in time.

The shooting game that was originally going to be developed could not be developed, but Lin Baicheng still had many choices. In the end, he chose the game "Pac-Man", because he remembered that this game seemed to be developed in the early 80s. He Don't want to miss this pretty good game anymore.

"President!"

Soo Miyamoto raised his hand, and after Lin Baicheng signaled him to speak, he said, "Isn't it good that the game only has beans as an item that can be eaten by elves? I think it's a bit too monotonous. You can design more for elves." props to eat."

"Miyamoto, you mentioned it very well, but I have already thought of this point."

Lin Baicheng nodded appreciatively, and said: "I'm going to design several props using different fruit types such as oranges, bananas, and grapes as templates. If you eat these props, you can get a lot of points. As for how many kinds of these props to design, each How suitable the sample props are, we will discuss it slowly when we develop it.”

Miyamoto Soo praised: "President, you have really considered thoroughly."

"Everyone can come up with any ideas."

Lin Baicheng said something with a smile, and then continued: "I have set up an exit on the left and right sides of the maze, and the elves can go to another map to eat beans through the exits on both sides, but the beans on the first map are eaten. Before they are all eaten, the ghosts will follow the map, which means there will be more and more ghosts."

"This setting is good!"

After hearing this, Miyamoto Sou immediately said: "In this way, players can have more novel experiences. The president's setting is great." He didn't flatter, but sincerely praised.

"Do you have any ideas about the setting of how to clear the game?"

Lin Baicheng nodded, and asked the six people including Miyamoto Soo.Of course, he had already thought about how to pass the level, but he wanted to see what ideas Miyamoto and others would have, and let them start to use their brains, which was also their training.

"Set a certain kind of prop, how about if the elf eats the prop and passes the level?"

"I think it's better to set a point value. After the elf controlled by the player reaches a certain point, it will pass the level."

"How about setting multiple customs clearance methods?"

"..."

The six people, including Miyamoto Sou, expressed their opinions. It can be said that it is good to have ideas in a short period of time.

"This is not urgent, we can set the clearance conditions while developing the game."

Lin Baicheng didn't say his decision right away, let Miyamoto Soo and the others think about it, maybe they will have better ideas.

Lin Baicheng did not develop the game "Pac-Man" according to the original version. He just copied some settings and gameplay. After all, this is just an arcade game in the early 80s, and there are many better settings in later generations.

Of course, Lin Baicheng will not take out the truly classic settings, but will put them in other games. It is very uneconomical to take out too many good settings at once.

Time passed slowly in the discussion of Lin Baicheng and others. At the same time, under the guidance of Lin Baicheng, they also knew the general outline of the game "Pac-Man" and the effects of the developed game, which can save a lot of money. time.

The reason why Lin Baicheng said all this is because he has asked lawyer Chen Gao to apply for patent copyrights such as game images, so he is not afraid of being copied.

"Jingle bell~~~"

While talking, the phone in the office rang.

"Hey, who is it?"

Lin Baicheng went to answer the phone.

"Boss Lin, it's me, Liu Yihui."

The call was from Liu Yihui. He called to tell Lin Baicheng good news. There was finally something happening in the United States. There was an agent who was very optimistic about the game "Xiangjiang Cube", so he wanted to come to Xiangjiang and the company. interview.

I don’t know exactly what the employees in the United States are talking about. The agent didn’t say anything. What’s more important is that the American agent is coming to Xiangjiang today and has already bought a plane ticket two hours later.

The agent is in Los Angeles. The time difference of Xiangjiang is about 15 hours faster than that of Los Angeles, and it takes about 15 hours to fly between the two places.

But don’t worry about the time difference for the time being. If the ticket is two hours later, and the flight will take 15 hours, then the other party will arrive in Xiangjiang in 17 hours, which is around three or four o’clock in the morning tomorrow.

For Lin Baicheng, this is indeed good news, but he is not too happy, because Lin Baicheng has long decided to wait for the game "Pac-Man" to be developed, and take two games together to go to Los Angeles to participate in the event held in October. The trade fair at , when agents from all over the world will be there.

This trade fair is not held specifically for the game industry, games, toys, electronics and other industries can go to participate and display products.

For Lin Baicheng, the arrival of the agent is just icing on the cake, but it is good news to some extent.

　(Favorites, recommended tickets, investment, please support me a lot!)
