Alien game producer

【cooperate】

That night, Xie Yunfan and the other three were sent to a nearby five-star hotel by Luo Hang.

Qihang booked high-end suites for them. They were treated as "VIPs" in every aspect of this trip, including reception, meals, and accommodation. The CEO and public relations manager accompanied them throughout the entire trip. To be treated with such courtesy, the three of them had an impression of Qihang. Very good too.

However, these are all superficial, and the details of the contract must be carefully looked at.

After returning to the hotel, Xie Yunfan emphasized to Lawyer Zou: "The terms of the contract must be written clearly. I will serve as the general planner of the project and have veto power on any changes to the game's gameplay."

"We account for [-]% of the domestic profits. Overseas, because the operating expenses are very high and the agents have to take commissions, I can appropriately share the profits."

Lawyer Zou asked: "What is the maximum concession?"

Xie Yunfan thought for a while and said: "I can accept [-]% to [-]%. After all, the maintenance and operation of overseas experience stores are all invested by Kaihang. We just sit back and enjoy the gains. It is not appropriate to take too much."

Lawyer Zou: "No problem. I will go over the terms of the contract carefully twice. After checking the details, you can sign the contract."

At ten o'clock in the evening, Xie Yunfan sent a message to Ning Sha in the "Artist's Garden": "Sister Sha, our "Labyrinth of the Underworld" is going to be adapted into a holographic version, and we need to add some characters. Can you continue to draw the original painting for me?"

Ningsha had been thinking about it since she last received an invitation from her boss. It wasn't until she saw a lot of positive comments about "Labyrinth of the Underworld" on the Internet recently that she finally made up her mind.

——She wants to join Yangfan Studio!

In her previous company, the boss was short-sighted and the art director was narrow-minded. They made things difficult for her and asked her to repeatedly change the original painting. After two years of hard work, she came up with a shoddy game that failed to make any splash.

But Yangfan Studio is different.This boss has great ideas for making games, is innovative, has a big brain, respects his partners, makes clear and clear requirements, and is a refreshing and sincere person.

She is willing to work on the next game with such a boss.

Ning Sha said simply: "Okay boss, please send me the profile information."

Xiaozhou: "This time we need to work offline. Can you come to the Imperial City soon? We will communicate on the spot and make corrections at any time if there are any problems. This will be more convenient."

Anyway, she quit her job and stayed at home. No matter where she went to paint, Ningsha said without hesitation: "No problem, I'll pack my luggage. What date will you come over?"

Little Sailboat: "Wait until I take care of everything here, then I can book your flight and accommodation for you."

Ning Sha: "Okay, I'll wait for your notification."

Xie Yunfan then sent the message to the scene painter Chu Yue.

Chu Yue, who was playing "Maze of the Underworld" at home, was shocked when he received the message: "Boss, do you still need to paint the scene? Hasn't the 18th floor of the underworld been painted?"

Xiaozhou: "The 18th Level of Hell has been painted, but many scenes of the ghost world cannot be installed in the stand-alone game. I didn't paint them at the time, and I need to add a few more. I like your painting style very much, so I want to invite you to the Imperial Capital to accompany you. I get the job done.”

Chu Yue scratched his head nervously: "Are you going to work in the imperial capital? Can't I paint at home?"

Xiaoying: "Don't worry, I will help you solve the problem of food and accommodation. If I remember correctly, you are still a senior, right? If you want, you can come to work in our Yangfan studio after graduation."

Chu Yue: "..."

Damn it!What kind of bad luck did he have that a father, a financial sponsor, fell from the sky to help him solve his work problem? ?I used to worry that my gory horror paintings wouldn't be popular and I wouldn't be able to find a job, and I wouldn't be able to make much money by accepting private manuscripts.

The boss is indeed his noble person.

Why are you hesitating?Pack your bags quickly and go see the boss.

Chu Yue agreed simply: "Okay! I have been free recently and can fly to the Imperial Capital at any time!"

He paused and then said: "However, the original painting of the 18th floor of the underworld had to meet the deadline, so I asked a few roommates to help with coloring. If the deadline for the subsequent paintings is tight, can I also find a few assistants? Help?"

Little Sailboat: "No, I will help you solve your assistant's problem."

Chu Yue: "Awesome!"

Xie Yunfan breathed a sigh of relief after getting rid of these two original painters.

It is best for a game to have a unified style.Qihang's original painters are of course excellent, but Qihang started out by making science fiction games. Their style is more apocalyptic and sci-fi style. The characters they draw are full of technology, including various machines, prosthetics, and the Chinese style of "Labyrinth of the Underworld". The difference in horror is quite large.

Although Chu Yue is a college student with little work experience, he has great imagination when painting scenes and his style is strange, which coincides with Xie Yunfan's requirements; Ning Sha has always been a realistic figure painter that he admires and can paint well. Black and white are impermanent, so he can naturally draw the Ghost Emperor of the Five Directions well.

As for music, funds were limited at the beginning, so the mobile version of "Labyrinth of the Underworld" had relatively few soundtracks. Since the holographic version cooperates with a large company like Qihang, the project is not short of money and can have a fitting background song for each of the 18 levels of hell. For the soundtrack, make two more opening and closing theme songs.

Music production does not require on-site supervision, it can be outsourced directly to "Ding Dong Music".

Xie Yunfan contacted Ding Huaian, the boss of Dingdang Music, and explained his requirements in detail.

Ding Huaian was also playing "Maze of the Underworld" during this period. Every time he heard the screams he recorded in the game, he would get goosebumps - it was true that he screamed in the recording studio all day long. I found the scariest sound effect and gave it to the boss, and the effect was amazing.

Seeing that his boss said that each level of hell should have a piece of music that fits the background, Ding Huaian couldn't help but wonder - the game was already on the market, why would he still make additional music?

Forget it, don’t ask too much about the boss’s affairs. Just record whatever the boss asks you to record.After the last cooperation, he has subconsciously remembered this principle.

Ding Huai'an replied excitedly: "This is a big deal! Boss, don't worry, I have completed the maze of the underworld from beginning to end. I know the style of each layer very well. We must seize the time to make a picture that fits each layer." Music from hell! By the way, when’s the deadline?”

Xie Yunfan said: "Can it be completed within two months?"

Ding Huaian: "No problem!"

The next day, Xie Yunfan got up early and went to the headquarters of Qihang Group with his brother and lawyer Zou.Luo Hang asked the public relations manager to pick them up at the door and take them directly to the conference room on the top floor.

There was a group of people sitting in the conference room, and the contract had been drawn up.Luo Hang asked the legal officer to hand the paper version of the contract to Lawyer Zou, looked at Xie Yunfan and said, "This is the first draft of the contract. There are many detailed clauses. You can put forward the areas that need to be modified and modify them on the spot."

Lawyer Zou looked at it carefully and found that there were no obvious pitfalls in the contract, and Qihang was quite realistic.According to Xie Yunfan, he added several clauses in handwriting and the wording was very rigorous.

Professional lawyers are different. Lawyers from both parties read the contract together and checked each item. Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the morning passed. After two rounds of revisions, the contract was finally finalized.

Xie Yunfan said: "I have no problem here, where is Mr. Luo?"

Luo Hang's voice was gentle: "I don't have a problem either. Should we sign the contract now, or should we organize a signing ceremony another day?"

Xie Yunfan didn't like those red tapes, so he simply said: "Just sign it."

Luo Hang asked someone to bring over the reprinted final version of the contract.The contract was made in quadruplicate, and the two people signed and stamped it separately, and then exchanged it with each other... Since the bosses of both parties were present, it was settled quickly.

After signing the contract, the two stood together and took a photo with the document, which represented that the project jointly established by "Yangfan Studio" and "Qihang Games" was officially confirmed.

Luo Hang took the initiative to reach out and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."

Xie Yunfan: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."

Luo Hang whispered: "Tomorrow afternoon, I will organize a project establishment meeting for the "Labyrinth of the Underworld Holographic Edition" and bring the members of the working group over to introduce you to it. This project establishment is an internal meeting and the entire process will be kept confidential. I don't want friends to know about it. Shang knows that we are cooperating on this project, can you understand?"

"Of course. It's good to keep it secret." To prevent some "friendly businessmen" from stumbling behind the scenes.

"Do you still need to bring an assistant here? I'll have someone arrange food and accommodation."

Xie Yunfan said: "The two original animators will join the team with me. I'm sorry to bother Mr. Luo."

Luo Hangdao: "You're welcome, then at 2:[-] tomorrow afternoon, our holographic adaptation of "Labyrinth of the Underworld" will be officially launched."

That night, Ning Sha and Chu Yue flew to the imperial capital overnight.

Their flights arrived at about the same time, and Xie Yunfan personally went to the airport to pick them up.

Ning Sha, the figure painter, is a tall sister, over 170cm by visual inspection, with neat short hair, wearing a brown knee-length coat and black leather boots. She is about 30 years old and has a very elegant temperament.

The scene painter is a boy in his early 20s. He still has the youthfulness of a student. His slightly long blond hair is tied into a cute little braid on the back of his head. He has a delicate appearance and wears a cream yellow sweater with fancy patterns. He is a bit dressed up. non-mainstream.

Xie Yunfan took the initiative to step forward and greet them: "Hello, you two, I am the boss of Yangfan Studio, Xie Yunfan."

Chu Yue looked at the young and handsome boy in front of him, and his eyes almost fell out.

How old is the boss?She looks younger than him!This suddenly changed from "financier father" to "financier brother"? ?

Ning Sha was also very surprised, but she quickly extended her hand politely and said, "Hello, boss."

Chu Yue came to his senses and hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Hello, boss!"

Xie Yunfan shook hands with the two of them and said: "Your accommodation has been arranged. The project will officially start tomorrow afternoon. After that, you will stay in the Imperial Capital and work with me."

The two looked at each other and nodded to express their understanding.

Xie Yunfan took them into the car. On the way back, Xie Yunfan whispered: "This project is to cooperate with Qihang Games to develop the "Underworld Labyrinth Holographic Edition". I invite you here because I want to make the holographic version and the mobile game version The painting style remains unified.”

He looked at the two of them with gentle and calm eyes: "Nominally, you two are the assistants I brought into the team. I hope that the two of you can be on the same page. When people from Qihang asked, they said, you are the original paintings of Yangfan Studio division."

Chu Yue was in a confused state of "who am I and where am I?"

How did he get involved in such a big project? !Qihang, the originator of domestic holographic games. As a die-hard fan of "Star Walk", he dreams of visiting Qihang headquarters!
As a result, this time I didn’t just go shopping... I also came to Qihang to work?

Boss, what kind of awesome person are you to be able to cooperate with Qihang? !

In comparison, Ning Sha was much calmer. She quickly understood what Xie Yunfan meant and said, "Boss, are you still the main planner of the holographic version of the Underworld Labyrinth project?"

Xie Yunfan said: "Yes. You two are my assistants, and other staff will cooperate. If you are a freelance painter, an external temporary partner, I am worried that they will not accept it."

Ning Sha had seen too many intrigues in the workplace, and she immediately reacted: "I understand, let me tell you, I am the original artist of the characters in the mobile version of Labyrinth of the Underworld, and we have other art assistants in Yangfan Studio."

Chu Yue suppressed his excitement and asked: "Then I am the original scene painter. I am responsible for the main composition of the scene. They assist me?"

Xie Yunfan said: "That's right."

Chu Yue: "..."

Set sail for the crew to assist him?He had never dreamed of such treatment.

He is such a transparent person, why did he take off with his boss inexplicably?

Ning Sha was also very shocked. She thought she came to the imperial capital to do odd jobs, but in the end, her boss directly made her the art director of original character paintings... This was a bit stressful!

But she always kept her composure, and gently clenched her fingers under her seat to cheer herself up.

From being squeezed out of a second-rate small company and having to resign, to now joining the team with Xie Yunfan and starting a large-scale cooperation project, serving as the main artist of the original character painting.

Her life seemed to have reached a new level without even realizing it.
