Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

, The fastest update to become the richest man in the latest chapter from the beginning of the game!

Pei Qian looked a little dizzy and couldn't figure it out.

The main reason is that when Li Yada wrote the content, he didn't intend to write it in detail. A lot of the content was written with the core content.

Who is Mr. Bae? Game designer!

Why do you write so long-winded?

In a word, President Pei should understand it, and writing too much is easy to be annoying.

Therefore, the content written on the paper is relatively simple, and Pei Qian glanced over it, and his first impression was that the game was mixed with a lot of content, which was a bit bloated.

The focus is still on the risks of this game.

Anyway, as long as Li Yada can demonstrate that the risk of this game is high enough, Pei Qian thinks it can be considered.

"You can briefly talk about your views first." Pei Qian looked at Li Yada.

Li Yada sorted out his thoughts a bit.

President Pei asked me to report, obviously there is something I don't understand.

Mr. Pei quickly read the plan, thinking that he has a general idea of ​​the content of the game.

After all, as a game designer, seeing a framework can make up the whole picture of the game. This should be a basic ability.

So, what should I report now?

There should be no report on the plan, and Mr. Pei can't make up for it.

Thinking of this, Li Yada said: "The proposal was made by a small studio. The previous game was called "The Blade of the Empire". It was on the Chaolu game platform and the results were fair..."

"The main designer is Yan Qi, and his time in the industry is not short. His previous design experience is mainly in the field of mobile games..."

"This game was designed by Yan Qi in a flash. I think the content is quite bright."

"However, as I wrote in the risk assessment report, the size of this game is too large, and it has completely exceeded the capacity of Yan Qi and his studio. The estimated R&D funding is at least 100 million yuan."

"Moreover, this game also has high risks. The risks mainly come from the following aspects."

"Yan Qi and his studio's development experience are difficult to handle such super large projects, and many unexpected problems may be encountered during development;"

"Because of the huge investment, the purchasing power of the domestic game market may be somewhat insufficient. Although the reputation among the niche players who prefer this game type will be good, it is very likely that the R&D and promotion costs will not be recovered;"

"Moreover, compared to the purer game content of "Returning to the Shore", there are more blended content in "Military". This is an innovation, but it is also an adventure..."

"As for whether it is feasible or not, you still have to judge whether you want to invest or not."

"The key is whether this idea and creativity is worth taking these risks."

Li Yada's introduction mainly focused on the background of Yan Qi and his studio.

After all, the gameplay of this game has been clearly written in the plan. It is nothing more than the inspiration from "Returning to the Shore", but it has incorporated many gameplay methods and added various officially encouraged skipping mechanisms to create such a self-contained game.

Pei always took a look at the points in this plan, and he should be able to make up the whole picture of the game.

If you tell the truth about the risks of this game, Mr. Pei should be able to give a more comprehensive evaluation.

When Pei Qian heard about the risks, he was no longer sleepy.

It sounds like this project is pretty reliable!

The main designer and the entire development team did mobile games before? No experience in the development of stand-alone games at all?

And he has done a few million small projects at most, and this time it will be hundreds of millions?

The key is that the game itself sounds like a hodgepodge. If it can replicate the success of "Looking Back", the two games are a bit too far apart.

On the surface, they all seem to have a bit of suffering, but in practice, the difference is big.

Moreover, the background of the story is overhead, there is no IP, and the prototype is also a relatively unpopular dynasty in history. This story background should have no extra points for the players.

It feels good!

Pei Qian took a look at the plan again.

This early-stage suffering and late-stage gameplay seems to be not completely unworkable, but considering two points, one is that similar games are rarely made into popular games, and the other is that the investment in the game itself is huge and the development team is inexperienced, so Taken together, the possibility of making money is actually very low.

Whether the game makes money or not is relative.

The higher the investment, the more difficult it is to make money.

Because there are so many player groups, the upper limit of game pricing is also difficult to break. The more investment, the higher the guaranteed sales, and the difficulty will increase exponentially for every order of magnitude increase in sales.

All in all, it's a sentence, it's worth a try!

After thinking for a moment, Pei Qian said, "You can invest money."

Li Yada couldn't help but be overjoyed.

If Mr. Pei agrees, it means that the gameplay is no problem, it can be hot!

But after waiting for a while, before waiting for the following, Li Yada hesitated and asked: "President Pei, do you have any comments or suggestions? Is there anything that can be improved in the gameplay of this game?"

Pei Qian looked at the plan and then at Li Yada.

What can be improved?

In fact, he really wanted to command something, but after thinking about it, from the point of view of the "competitions" of Tenda Game and Zangyang Game that he pointed out before, let's just rest in the cool.

What if a random pointer gives the finishing touch to this game again?

That's maddening.

Therefore, Pei Qian shook his head: "As an investor, don't always interfere. For the game, everyone has everyone's ideas. After all, this is not Tenda's game."

"Besides, I think this game is okay, there is no big problem."

"The only thing is that one hundred million is not enough. If you can add more, it might be better."

"Imagination is priceless, how can money limit a designer's imagination?"

It stands to reason that one billion is quite a lot, but for this kind of game, it is obvious that the greater the investment, the harder it is to recover the cost.

In other words, every additional sum of money after 100 million will increase the profitability of this game exponentially.

But Pei Qian can't directly say that he should give more money. That is not reasonable. After all, they only need 100 million.

And the system is still staring, so I have to think of a way to fool it.

An advantage of projects like this is that the system will not use it for card settlement. For Pei Qian, the money is spent, and there is no need to worry about it for a long time.

But Pei Qian can't figure out the specific reasons for paying more, so he can only let the designer of this game think about it.

Li Yada nodded: "Really? President Pei feels the same way too?"

"Indeed, this kind of game still needs sufficient research and development funds to make the effect good."

"In that case, I will go back and ask Yan Qi to refine the plan again, and add back the previously cut content. The game process and level design will also add more equipment, props, NPCs, monsters, etc., Do more too."

Pei Qian added: "The recruitment should also be arranged as soon as possible. Anyway, sooner or later, you will have to recruit. Don't do half of the job when you find that the progress is too slow. Then you won't rush."

For game companies, labor costs are the bulk of development costs.

The more people are recruited, the greater the daily expenses. Recruit people early and spend money early, and hire more people and spend more money.

Anyway, for such a large project, it is a new team that needs to be run in. The development time is not short, and early recruitment will not make the development progress much faster, but can cost more.

Li Yada was a little touched.

Although she had anticipated that Mr. Pei might invest in this game to support Yan Qi's dream, she did not expect that Mr. Pei would be so open and bright. One hundred million would be enough, and additional money would be required.

But to be honest, similar game effects are indeed made by money.

When Tenda made "Looking Back at the Shore", the foundation was not very strong, so the content of the game was relatively pure, the game process was not very long, and the final price of the game was not high.

But now, Tenda's size is no longer what it used to be.

Perhaps President Pei saw the predicament of Yan Qi's small studio and thought of the state of Tenda when it was founded, so he decided to lend a helping hand?

You can't let the project of "Military" leave any regrets!

Sure enough, President Pei's understanding of investment is different from other investors.

Other investors are thinking about how to cut costs and how to seek the lowest cost to obtain the greatest return. Therefore, when encountering this kind of project, the first reaction is definitely how to reduce the cost, and the second reaction is to interfere with the project. Interfere with creation.

But President Pei is different. When encountering this kind of problem, the first reaction is to consider whether the money is enough, whether people should recruit as soon as possible, and even if Pei is always a master of game design, he fully respects the original designer’s ideas. Anything to interfere with creation!

It can only be said that Mr. Pei’s first identity is still a designer, and then he is an investor.

In other words, even if Pei is always an investor, he is an investor with a completely different nature from other investors.

"Okay, President Pei, then I will tell you, let the designer re-run the plan again, make up all the ideas that were cut off before, and make the game complete."

"Uh...or wait for He Desheng to come back and let He Desheng speak?"

"I still have to make sure that my identity is not revealed. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com"

What Li Yada told Yan Qi before was that she knew people from Yuanmeng Venture Capital and could talk, but if she were to send the official message directly, it would be a bit beyond the scope of a friend, and it would easily arouse suspicion.

Therefore, it would be better to wait for He Desheng to come back and talk as the person in charge of Dream Venture Capital.

Pei Qian nodded: "Well, yes, we still need to do some confidential work."

"Speaking of which... Can you hide the identity of Chaolu game platform?"

Li Yada thought for a while: "It's okay, it's still safe at the moment."

Pei Qian was a little relieved: "Okay, continue to hide it, how long you can hide it, this is very important."

Continue to hide it so that you can continue to burn money. Don't expose it in the short term, and you can burn more money.

Once the relationship between Chaolu Game Platform and Tenda is exposed, it can only be forced to enter the next stage.
