I just want to make idol dramas

Chapter 38

The current layout of Xingyao Games is very interesting. Headquartered in Kyoto, the marketing team is led by CEO Yang Zongwen, and the technical team is in Pengcheng. It is mainly the Paradise Island game studio led by Ye Zhixiang. A development team called Destiny in Western Europe has very good technology, but because they are all Chinese, it is difficult to get in touch with the core of a large company, so some of them are in the tower country. Although Star Games has not made any international games, the company is not Internationalized first.

At present, there are three games under Shining Star. The addition of Paradise Island brought their self-developed game "Light Seeking Dream Journey". Players, just because the subject matter is relatively small, it is difficult to become popular.

After the technical team joined, Xingyao Games quickly released the online Werewolf Killer. Once this popular offline game was released, the number of registered users soon exceeded [-] million, and the number of online users reached one million at one time, becoming a market star.Now most of the operating income of Xingyao Game comes from this game, so many venture capital groups are optimistic about Xingyao Game, but compared with the game's attributes, this game's social attributes are more obvious, and there is no technical difficulty at all.

Thanks to the popularity of Werewolf Killer, Space Killer was also popular when it went online, especially after several anchors tried it out. It can be said to be quite successful, but Xiao Yu knows in his heart that this small game can only be regarded as a condiment in life, and it will not go very far.

So the current star game needs a real large-scale game to prove itself. For Xiao Yu, it needs to have a successful precedent, enough influence, stable revenue capacity, and lasting vitality to help star game go smoothly. During the expansion period, he established his status in the arena in one fell swoop, which is also the purpose of today's online meeting between Xiao Yu and all the main personnel.

"This is the game we will launch next, "League of Legends", "League of Legends". I have already sent you the idea of ​​the game, you can take a look first."

That's right, the game Xiao Yu chose is "League of Legends", his favorite game, he can be said to be an experienced player in his previous life, from the end of S2 until after work, he would occasionally play two games, but his level Generally only hit diamonds.

He still remembers the joy of the whole dormitory working day and night, the grand occasion when all the Internet cafes were playing a game, and the time when a few people saved money just to watch a game live.Later, those friends who once said that "you will stop playing after reaching level 31" have never been online again. He still chooses to play two games occasionally. If he chooses the first game in his mind, it must be LOL.

This is a computer game that has created a strong e-sports culture, created a world championship that has attracted worldwide attention, allowed e-sports to be included in the Asian Games, and is still the computer game with the largest number of online players in the world after ten years of release. subordinate.

"Mr. Xiao, is this the project we talked about before? I think the painting style is more western." Ye Zhixiang had heard of this project before, but it was the first time he had seen so many details.

Xiao-Woo's file not only includes the general direction of the game mode, operation ideas, etc., but also draws maps, characters, equipment and even some specific values. What's more, what he drew is the earliest version of the original painting, with an obvious western style.

Xiao Yu explained: "The background of this game itself is born out of Western mythology. The characters' skills and equipment must be unified, and the game must be released worldwide. This style of painting is more acceptable."

Jin-Woo has already considered this aspect, the charm of LOL lies in the use of hero skills, various subtle tactics and the pleasure brought by the confrontation itself.After ten years, a lot of equipment has disappeared, many heroes have been greatly changed or even redone, maps and original paintings have changed again and again, but it has not delayed everyone's love at all, and it doesn't matter what kind of painting style.

Ye Zhixiang then asked, "What about our operation method?"

"Registration is free, game matches are free, heroes and runes are purchased through the game, and a certain amount of gold coins can be obtained for each match."

"Then how do we make money?"

Jin-Woo said affirmatively: "Skins, when we create characters, we must create a series of skins around them at the same time. It can be separate, it can be limited to festivals, or it can be multiple heroes to create the same series."

Wei Shaobo was a little puzzled after hearing this, "Mr. Xiao, do these skins have any function?"

"No, except for the difference in skill release, special effects and voice, there is no bonus."

"Then why buy skins? Would anyone spend that money?"

After Wei Shaobo finished speaking, Jin-Woo laughed directly, would anyone spend this money?Young man, you are too young!In my previous life, I would rather eat one less meal to buy a set of pleasant skins. Many people have to prepare all the skins no matter how many dishes they play. How many people have computers at home and go to Internet cafes because of the privileged skins of Internet cafes. What does it rely on to become one of the top game companies in the world from a little-known company?Why are you buying skins?Because TMD is handsome!

"Mr. Wei, you are thinking of a technician, not a product manager. Think about your mobile phone. The manufacturer has already made the bare phone so beautiful. Why do you still buy a mobile phone case? Isn't it just for individuality? This is the same as when you charge money to draw cards in card games, and you can get gems by swiping for a while, so why spend money to draw cards? Apart from saving time, you just want to be different from others.”

Tang Jie, the representative of the Destiny team, thought for a while and asked, "Then we need a lot of artists?"

"Yes, I will leave this matter to you. I need you to recruit people from Europe to carry out the first stage of drawing and modeling, first to produce the Summoner's Canyon and the batch of heroes I selected. And Mr. Ye It’s time to start the preliminary data testing and development preparations. I plan to conduct this game testing in Europe and China at the end of the year. If it is suitable for the official public testing next year, the time is relatively tight, so everyone has a heavy task.”

After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he looked at the CEO Yang Zongwen again, "Mr. Yang, I will trouble you to be a trapeze man for a while during this period. You are a senior in the game industry. People still do tests to check.”

Yang Zongwen immediately said, "President Xiao, you are welcome. It is my honor to participate in this project. It is the greatest honor in my career to witness the birth of this game under my hands. I will definitely do my best."

This video conference continued for several days. Xiao Yu fully explained the concept of the game and his own understanding of the game to them. He couldn't help with specific technical aspects, so he tried to restore the details as much as possible.

This masterpiece, which will be called "the world's number one game" in the future, was also born in these video conferences.
