Is it not a galgame?

Chapter 152 56. Who else?
During the lunch break at noon the next day, the art boss Taiji Sakata and the programming boss Ken Akanishi were blowing on the roof.

Smoking and chatting nonsense.

"Since Xin Jincheng went back to school, I always feel that something is missing."

Akanishi Ken bit his cigarette butt, shielded himself from the wind with one hand, and started a fire with the other.

After flipping twice, the lighter burst into an orange flame.

He lowered his head and moved the cigarette butt closer, took a deep breath, and lit it smoothly.

"Don't tell me." Sakata Taiji glanced at the wooden chair Makoto Nitsu liked to lie on with approval. Now it was empty, and there were only him and Akanishi Ken on the entire rooftop.

"Although Xin Jincheng doesn't usually speak, he likes to lie on the bench and watch the sky, which is really strange. The sense of existence can be said to be weak to death.

I didn't think much of it at ordinary times, but when the person disappeared, I found out that it actually had an impact. "

"This is the so-called companionship." Akanishi smiled, "Usually a big living person lies here, and I'm not used to it after it's gone."

"It's not gone, it's just back to school." Taiji Sakata corrected.

He actually likes the kid Xin Jincheng. Although he is a little introverted and has a small hobby of looking at the sky, his original painting ability is really strong.

And it's okay to love the sky, the stars and the sea.

Kant said that there are two things, the more often and persistently we think about them, the more our hearts are filled with ever fresh and unabated admiration and awe——
One is the moral law in our hearts, and the other is the brilliant starry sky above our heads.

To be honest, Taiji Sakata is still a little jealous of Makoto Niijin. He is in his 20s, but his eyes can still be so pure, and he can still look at the sky so persistently.

It is full of the romantic atmosphere of an artist and possesses the ultimate ideal of an artist.

"After "The Witcher" is finished, I will also apply to the president." Said Taiji Sakata, looking at the distant sky.

"Huh? Apply for what?"

"Application to collect folk songs!" Said Taiji Sakata firmly.

After finishing speaking, he laughed evilly, "We also need inspiration in art. If we don't go outside to collect folk songs, we will definitely not be able to continue working behind closed doors like this."

"It's disgusting!" Akanishi Ken was envious to death.

It's called Caifeng, but it's actually for tourism.

It's a pity that programmers don't have such an excuse.

Other artists go to collect inspiration, sketch from life, experience life, like Hayao Miyazaki, travel abroad to obtain material for animation production.

What can you program ape Caifeng do?Can you still find the code from the scenery?
Therefore, in pokeni, art collection is a very legitimate thing, which can be regarded as a business trip.

……

Seeing Akanishi Ken's envious and jealous expression, Sakata Taiji laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up.

After a while, the two of them had already finished smoking two cigarettes while standing on the roof.

Taiji Sakata exhaled the smoke ring, looked at the sun poking out of the clouds in the distance, "Akanishi-san, have you noticed that our president is really a strange person."

"How to say?"

"Look at the strange talents that the company recruits. Except Yoko Shimomura, who was poached from Capcom and has proven strength, the other guys were a bit uncomfortable at first. Look at ease.

Bai Chuan, who had never made game music, had already gone to Pharaoh to control him, and was dragged back abruptly by the president.

This guy Hetian was completely self-recommended from the player forum. The scary thing is that the president really dared to use him.

There is no one who checks.

Later, Shinji Mikami failed the written test and interview at all, and Capcom didn't want him. As a result, the president inexplicably favored him.

Now……"

Taiji Sakata glanced back to make sure there was no one there, and then said cautiously, "Isn't the new Maeda Jun a bit strange?"

"It's more lively than I imagined. The strange thing is that he is a standard baseball player, right?" Akanishi laughed dumbfounded, "He obviously looks like a person who is weak in baseball, but he likes to talk about baseball. .

By the way, I especially like Guyuan Chunqiu.

Maybe it's Urobuchi again. "

"Don't..." Taiji Sakata trembled all over, and quickly waved his hands, "Don't come to Urobuchi Gen, one Furuhara Chunqiu, one Urobuchi Gen, isn't it enough to torment us?"

"Then you have to do it before it's too late." Ken Akanishi said with a smile, "After the brainwashing of the president and Wada, it will be a matter of time before Maeda Jun becomes the next Gen Urobuchi."

"Uh……"

The corner of Taiji Sakata's mouth twitched.

How can I brainwash him... Can I beat the president?

"In any case, before Ma Zhizhun learns to change the requirements repeatedly, let him develop a good habit of being cautious.

In addition, to tell him the power of love and justice, don't always think about throwing a knife.

Following Guyuan Chunqiu and Xu Yuanxuan is a road of no return, and there is no future on this road. "

"Hehe, you said it so well, why don't you do it?"

"I don't have time." Akanishi smiled, "And the rework on the program side is not as exaggerated as yours. I don't think it's unbearable."

Rather than enduring it, Ken Akanishi has long been used to enjoying it. Every time he is changed by the president, Ken Akanishi always receives many weird demands.

This is not entirely a bad thing, at least he has made great progress in programming ability, and now pokeni's program ape is second to none in China.

All this is thanks to Qing Zhiyuan.

It is equivalent to doing special training for the devil.

"So young. Our team. Originally, the average age was only around 20 years old. Now that Ma Zhizhun has come, it has dropped down a bit.

I, a person in my 30s, is actually the oldest here.It is not established in any company. "Sakata Taiji said angrily.

Akanishi frowned severely.

In fact, he is about the same age as Taiji Sakata.

"There's nothing wrong with being young, right?" Akanishi said, "This makes our company look young and energetic."

In the game industry, Pokeni is indeed a relatively young company, and most of them are young people. It is hard to imagine that a 20-year-old like Urobuchi Gen can take the lead alone.

Although Shinji Mikami is 27 years old, he has only been in the industry for only two years.

Thinking about it now, Akanishi Ken felt scared for a while.

Whether it is Rentiantang, Sega or Capcom, their founder team is not too young now, and they also have a complete newcomer training mechanism.

But since its inception, Pokeni has relied entirely on young people to come all the way.

A slight mistake in the middle may cause the entire pokeni to fall into the abyss of eternal doom.

It's a miracle not to go bankrupt.

What's even more frightening is that pokeni can still develop so well.

If you don't think about it, you still take everything for granted, but when you think about it carefully, Akanishi Ken only feels his scalp tingling.

He stroked it carefully, and suddenly his eyes widened.

The source is not anywhere else, but Qing Zhiyuan.

How well he got his name!

……

Taiji Sakata nodded, "Well, things like experience can be obtained through accumulation, but creativity is very valuable. The most rare thing is that the young people in our company are quite creative."

"I wouldn't be able to control it at all." Ken Akanishi sighed sincerely.

So far, probably only Qing Zhiyuan can do this.

So Akanishi Ken still admires him.

If you have to say it, Qing Zhiyuan is the real genius.

The vision is terribly vicious, whether it is Shinji Mikami, Gen Urobuchi, intern Makoto Nitsu, or even the newly arrived Jun Maeda, they all seem to have shown extraordinary talents.

Just being able to unearth these people and put them together is already powerful enough.

What's more terrible is that if you change to any other person, I'm afraid you will feel a headache for such a team. Too many people with ideas in the company is not necessarily a good thing, and it may lead to nothing being done in the end.

But Qing Zhiyuan is really good at employing people.

Wada and Mikami are two completely different usages.

Moreover, each of them can display 100% of their strength and value in their own fields. How terrible is this?
Now Ken Akanishi is quite looking forward to how the president's favorite [Maeda Jun] will perform.

……

After working in pokeni for more than two weeks, Ma Zhijun was called to the office by the president.

"Boss, are you looking for me?"

Ma Zhizhun opened the door and sat on the sofa, shook the long hair on his forehead, and looked at Qing Zhiyuan.

"Yes." Qing Zhiyuan nodded, "I want you to be responsible for the copywriting of the new game, including the story script."

"Really?!" Ma Zhizhun asked in surprise.

"Great!"

He had wanted to leave the witcher for a long time.

The main reason is that the tasks assigned by Urobuchigen to him are too detailed, either writing lines for a certain character in the demon hunter, or naming items and skills...

These are very different from the work content that Ma Zhizhun originally imagined.

According to Mazhi Zhun's prediction, after coming to Pokeni, shouldn't he write stories and contribute his creativity to amaze everyone?
Don't say it's not the same thing now, he often quarrels with the main copywriter Hetian because of some ideas.

The ideas of both are very interesting, but the work can only have one style.

In the end, Shinji Mikami must be on Urobuchi Gen's side, so many of Jun Maeda's ideas were not adopted.

But he was suffocated to death.

He didn't expect to be so relieved by the president today, which made him full of hope for the game industry again.

"Hmm. Really." Qing Zhiyuan nodded, "I plan to make a brand new galgame here."

After Xinjin Cheng went back to school, now pokeni doesn't have a galgame in hand.

Qing Zhiyuan thought about it for a while, and felt that it is still necessary to make one, which is a short-term game with a high return rate.

Before the witcher is released, it's just a good time to use the new galgame to make the transition.

It was because Hetian didn't have time before, but now that Ma Zhizhun is here, it's just time for him to try it out, which can be regarded as a practice.

"Yeah." Ma Zhizhun nodded violently, "Then what kind of galgame is going to be done next, or do you have any requirements?"

"Since it's a galgame, it's natural to focus on love." Qing Zhiyuan paused and said, "It doesn't have to be completely like this. There can be breakthroughs in the form and gameplay. How about..."

The president thought deeply for two seconds, then smiled meaningfully, "You tell me."

"Huh?" Ma Zhizhun blinked, not expecting the president to play so big.

Is pokeni the company's style of doing things always like this?
I want to make a new game, but I don't know what it is, let a newcomer design it...

I have to say that the president's courage is really fat.

And so confident in me.

Although Ma Zhijun was a little annoyed by Urobuchi Gen these days, but seeing the president like this, he suddenly felt that Wada-san was really kind and reliable.

……

Qing Zhiyuan is looking forward to clannad, and he can even write out the script outline of CL and throw it to Ma Zhizhun.

But doing so is tantamount to pinching seedlings to encourage growth, and the gain may outweigh the loss.

Let Ma Zhizhun play better by himself.

At least he can grow in practice like Urobuchi Gen.

Even if you can't write CL at the beginning, you will be able to write it one day.

Don't kill Ma Zhizhun's creativity just because you are eager for quick success.

……

Ordinary newcomers would probably have been frightened by Qing Zhiyuan long ago, but Ma Zhizhun didn't seem to back down in any way.

"So I can write anything?" Ma Zhizhun asked doubtfully.

He has written many novels in school, but it is hard to say whether they are the same as games.

Fortunately, although there have been many quarrels with Hotan recently, Ma Zhizhun has also learned a lot, and has some basic understanding of the game.

At least he now knows that the game is not simply about telling a story, whether it is the lines of each character or the name of the equipment...these all need people to think and write.

God said let there be light.

Then the programmers began to study wave-particle duality, speed, frequency, heat...

Light is not so easily created.

"Look at you, first of all this is a galgame, and second, I need a high-quality script that can continue the pokeni tradition.

This script needs to showcase your creativity, while at the same time moving the players.

As long as these points can be achieved, the project can start. "

Qing Zhiyuan smiled, "That's how Hetian Sang started."

Hearing Wada's name, Ma Zhizhun's mouth twitched slightly.

"However, since you have no experience in making games before, I will find an experienced producer to take charge of the new project. You only need to take care of the script part."

"Oh."

It turned out that there was a producer on it.

It's just that Ma Zhi must be very curious——

Guyuan Chunqiu is gone, now who else can Pokeni be the producer of the new galgame.

It can't be the president himself, right?

"Good president." Ma Zhizhun nodded seriously, "Within a week, I will write out the first draft for your review."

"Ok."

Qing Zhiyuan said that he is looking forward to Ma Zhizhun's script story.

In terms of player mentality.
