Chapter 378 Code Zero Group

Group Zero, "Zero" Studio This is the place where Zhang Lexing's new dream is entrusted, a "brand new" game development studio.In Zhang Lexing's game map, he regards BJ's creative workshop as a place to fulfill his personal game dreams, and it has been true for quite a long time.However, as Zhang Lexing and Chen Zishan settled in Hong Kong, the distance between the creative workshops has become farther, and the difficulty of realizing personal game dreams has also become more difficult. Although the Internet is very developed now, even though he has his own private jet, they cannot make up for the space. The estrangement caused by distance.

After all, games are a product of thought. Zhang Lexing can provide game ideas, but he cannot complete the development of a game on his own. Therefore, if he cannot keep track of the progress and situation of game development, then the final game will not be completed. It may be completely different from his original idea.

Zhang Lexing hopes to communicate with his game developers at any time, and also hopes to see how the game he conceived is developed at any time. Hong Kong is very suitable in terms of distance, but the cost of game development is too high. Although Zhang Lexing There is no shortage of funds for game development, but he is not willing to burn too much money for his personal hobbies, so the mainland region near Hong Kong has become his target of choice.Zhang Lexing once considered Shenzhen, but the relocation of Xishanju to Zhuhai gave him a new choice. Compared with Shenzhen, a commercial metropolis, Zhuhai with a better natural environment gave Zhang Lexing a better feeling. It is suitable for game development, an industry that needs inspiration. In the end, the balance in his heart completely turned to Zhuhai, so today's trip was made.

……

With a slight shock, the helicopter slowly landed on the roof of a commercial building located at No. 168 Shihua West Road, ZH City. This is the only commercial building in Zhuhai that has a helipad. The future office location of the "Zero" studio.

The bodyguard opened the cabin door and jumped out, standing vigilantly beside the helicopter. A gradually weakening roar rang in Zhang Lexing's ears as the cabin door opened. He turned his head and looked outside. Edge walked over, and one of them was his old acquaintance Zhan Jun.

"Boss, they are in charge of the zero team project. The one wearing a black and white plaid shirt is called Cao Xinchun. He is the general manager of the project preparation team and the future general manager of the 'Zero' studio." Wang Mengyao moved closer to Zhang Lexing, Pointing with his hand, he introduced: "On Cao Xinchun's right hand, the beautiful woman in glasses and professional attire is an administrative expert called Ye Zifei who was transferred from BJ's side. On Cao Xinchun's left hand, the one in a water blue shirt is the person in charge The designer of the office building decoration was sent by Gao Wen'an Design Co., Ltd., who often cooperates with us, and his name is Qin Weiwen. Behind them is Zhan Jun, your old subordinate, the boss."

Zhang Lexing nodded, leaned on the seat and carefully jumped from the cabin to the tarmac, then turned around and helped Wang Mengyao down, who was wearing high heels, and then the two of them walked towards Zhan Jun and the others who came up.

"Boss, the journey has been hard." After Zhan Jun and others approached, they greeted Zhang Lexing unanimously: "Welcome to Zhuhai!"

Waving his hands with a smile on his face, Zhang Lexing said, "It's nothing, you guys have really worked hard!"

Zhang Lexing’s words are not out of politeness. As the saying goes, “If you say one word above, the next one will break your leg.” In many cases, what he can provide is just an idea or a direction, and the specific implementation depends on Wang Mengyao, Hua Ziqing and Zhan. Jun waited for the efforts of these subordinates to turn his ideas into reality, so that things could develop in the direction he expected.It seems that Zhang Lexing just sent an email to set up the "Zero" studio this time, briefly explaining his requirements for the game studio, and someone will take over the next work immediately, including the budget of the zero group project and the studio staff. The scale, the selection of office locations, the list of management personnel, etc., and all he needs to do is to read the feedback emails and make instructions.

After shaking hands with everyone one by one, Zhang Lexing ignored the greetings and asked directly, "How is the preparation of the office area?"

"Boss, the decoration of the office area has been basically completed, and it is expected to be ready for use in about 10 days." Cao Xinchun, who was wearing a plaid shirt, made an inviting gesture and said, "Well, let me take you to visit."

Zhang Lexing nodded. He originally had this intention, so under Cao Xinchun's guidance, he walked into the corridor accompanied by everyone.Before reaching the stairwell, Cao Xinchun turned the doorknob and opened the door, and everyone filed in and went downstairs.

"Boss, this building does not include the roof. It has a total of 23 floors, including 20 floors above ground and 3 floors underground. The 18th to 20th floors of the building are assigned to Studio Zero..." Cao Xinchun walked up the stairs. Introducing Zhang Lexing.

Walking down 20 or 20 steps and passing through two fire doors, everyone came to a huge space on the 960th floor. Cao Xinchun stopped, gestured around with his hand, and said, "Boss, here is the place on the 840th floor. There are three main areas. The east side belongs to the art department, covering an area of ​​about 500 square meters. In addition to the semi-transparent office area, it also has two translucent crystal glass terraces. The west side is the business area, which has a large multi-functional conference room and two A small meeting room with a total area of ​​[-] square meters. In the middle is a rest area with an area of ​​about [-] square meters. It is planned to set up a coffee house providing Western-style food and a tea restaurant providing Chinese-style food..."

According to Cao Xinchun, where Zhang Lexing is standing now belongs to the rest area, with opaque glass partitions at both ends, separating the art department on the east and the conference area on the west from the middle area.The whole rest area is dotted with many chairs and dining tables. Beautiful green plants are dotted among them. The rest area is subtly divided into several areas. There is a slightly messy area on the east and west sides of the rest area. Several decorations The workers are busy up and down, and there will be the crackling sound of nail guns from time to time. It seems that it should be the coffee house and tea restaurant that Cao Xinchun mentioned.

There is an east-west aisle near the entrance. Several decorative paintings are hung on the wall. Along the aisle, many tall and straight potted green plants are placed, giving people a lush feeling. There are several upright freezers that are not powered on, and there is nothing in the freezers that have not been activated.

"...The 19th floor is divided into several areas, the program design center with the largest area, the planning department with an elegant environment, the project department responsible for the overall management of game development, and the technology that provides various support for game production, including motion acquisition, etc. Support Department..."

"...The 18th floor includes two well-decorated business reception rooms and a professional recording studio. It also has an indoor basketball room, a 600-square-meter professional gym and an electronic entertainment room..."

While walking casually in the building, Zhang Lexing listened to Cao Xinchun introduce the layout of the "Zero" studio, and occasionally exchanged his views with Qin Weiwen, who was in charge of the overall design.In fact, before coming to Zhuhai, Zhang Lexing had already seen the decoration renderings of the "Zero" studio on the computer, and even many of the requirements were put forward by himself, but some things are the same thing from the screen. The feeling of the scene is another matter. What's more important is that he walked all the way, looking at the office area of ​​the "Zero" studio where the decoration is coming to an end, it reminded him of the situation when he established the creative workshop in BJ.At that time, there were not many people available for Zhang Lexing to choose from. It took a lot of effort to set up the shelf of the creative workshop. The preliminary preparations took almost a year. Now that he has a strong team, it will save a lot of trouble. Many things just need to be ordered.

In Zhang Lexing's plan, the "Zero" studio will take the route of elite soldiers. At the beginning, the scale will not be very large. It is almost enough to have about 100 people. The staff must be the best, so as to complete his vision game.The first project that Zhang Lexing intends to hand over to "Zero" studio is "Big Thousand Worlds", which he has conceived for a long time, a general game platform including many game worlds, a killer online game in his mind, a fusion of Cloud game technology, universal payment technology, artificial intelligence, multi-platform data exchange, etc. are included in the entertainment center, and can even include digitized film and television, music and other resources.

The "Big Thousand World" in Zhang Lexing's mind is composed of a "safety island" first world that acts as a general game platform, plus several "game worlds" connected through "game data exchange gateways". Players can play in the first world. Cultivate your own game characters like "Sims", you can experience various occupations in the game in a more realistic way, you can go to the "arcade hall" to play classic arcade games, and you can even fly an airplane in the Experience the feeling of flying in virtual space.Players can also be sent to other game worlds connected by "The Big Thousand World" through a special channel to experience the feeling of "traversing".

The technology contained in "The Great Thousand World" is very complicated, and many of them have less than half of the research progress. Of course, Zhang Lexing did not expect to be able to develop "The Great Thousand World" in a short period of time. He even considered He has always been very patient in this regard by dividing "The Big Thousand World" into multiple versions and adopting a continuous update method to gradually improve it.

"...This is the front desk of our studio." Cao Xinchun stopped at the gate on the 18th floor, pointed to the front desk and said, "Boss, look, this is the logo of the studio!"

Zhang Lexing looked in the direction Cao Xinchun pointed, and saw a number 0 with horizontal lines transformed from the letter Z inlaid on a lake-blue bottom plate, which was the studio logo originally designed by a professional organization.Zhang Lexing breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the situation along the way, the situation of the "Zero" studio made him very happy. As long as the manpower is replenished, his "Big Thousand World" can be officially launched...
