: Interview

Su Jie temporarily forgot about Hiratsuka Jing, and came to Panda Game Company to continue his work.

In Panda Game Company, Su Jie, as the chief creative officer, has a heavy responsibility. Currently, he is mainly in charge of supervising the game “Fleet Collection” designed by himself. He gives suggestions to the employees during the production process, and they are responsible for the specific code. to knock.

At this time, Su Jie went to the art department of Panda Game Company to check the work situation, and a man jumped out.

“Su Jun, can you see this character?”

Cool Breeze Aoba swayed her twin ponytails, ran over with small steps, and excitedly took the “Fleet Collection” figure painting to Su Jie for review.

Generally speaking, this level is reviewed by the head of the art department, Yagami Guang who is in charge of character design and art direction, and then Yagami Guang will hand it over to Su Jie to make a decision. However, Liangfeng Aoba and Su Jun have a good relationship, so directly Let Su Jie give advice.

The so-called vertical painting means that there is no background, and the characters are simply drawn on white paper.

“Okay, let me take a look.” Su Jie smiled and took the work of Liangfeng Qingye. On the paper was a woman wearing a white military jacket and a red skirt, holding an umbrella.

She has a tall and sexy figure, a delicate and charming face, and a neat hairstyle with a single ponytail. Behind her is the structure of several large-caliber heavy artillery, which looks mighty and beautiful.

“This is the image I drew of Yamato, transformed from the battleship Yamato. Is this okay?”

Cool Breeze Aoba’s small face was full of apprehension and anticipation, and her dark eyes kept looking at Su Jie, waiting for Su Jie’s review result. This is actually the seventh time she has revised it, and the character she drew before did not quite match.

“Yes, this time the image is very suitable. No, it should be much better than I imagined. In the future, the big sister holding the umbrella you draw will definitely win many fans.”

Su Jie looked at it, nodded in satisfaction, gave Liangfeng Qingye a thumbs up, and praised him without hesitation.

“Thank you Su Jun. As long as I can pass the review, I will be very happy.” After hearing the answer, Liangfeng Qingye jumped up happily, looking extremely happy and excited.

“Keep working. When the game is produced and released successfully, I will give you a bonus.”

Su Jie rubbed Liangfeng Qingye’s little head, although Qingye was as old as Su Jie, but because of her childlike face and twin ponytails, and her cheerful personality like a child, Su Jie regarded her as his younger sister look at.

“Hey, Hifumi, why do you avoid me as soon as I come, am I that scary?”

After chatting with Liangfeng Aoba here, I saw Hifumi buried her head on the computer desk. When other employees were greeting Su Jie, she didn’t dare to look at Su Jie.

Rifumi pursed her lips and shook her head. She didn’t say a word. When she saw Su Jie looking at her, she was still clutching her collar nervously. It was especially easy for people to have a bad taste and a sense of guilt for bullying a good boy.

“Just don’t bully others, Hi Fumi don’t talk to him.”

Asuna came from behind Su Jie, patted Su Jie on the shoulder, and told Su Jie not to tease Hifumi.

“I’m just chatting.” Su Jie shrugged. Rifumi is an introverted girl who is not good at communicating with others. She is just chatting, so she is not a bully.

“How is the progress of “Fleet Collection” now? Let’s start warming up the publicity.”

Asuna gave Su Jie a blank look.Instead of entangled with Su Jie here, we talked about the game.

“The basic art design has been completed, and more than a hundred character portraits have been completed. The following is the specific programming and numerical arrangement, and the publicity can begin.”

Su Jie quickly gave his opinion. Su Jie has been in charge of “Fleet Collection”. Su Jie has the most say in the specific production process.

“Well, then I’m going to start preparing to promote the vertical paintings of “Fleet Collection”. We have also contacted a few related authors of the fan creations. When the time comes, we will bring out some of the best vertical paintings to see how they work.”

“I can help with this, drawing books! I know a master.” Su Jie chuckled, with evil in that smile, causing Asuna to pinch Su Jie, and said: “Seriously, why are you laughing so wretchedly? Are you going to draw a book? Well, for you, drawing a book is really easy, and it is more famous, think about the scene where the famous cult gentleman draws a book, it will definitely become popular by then.”

“I didn’t draw it, it was drawn by someone I know? Asuna, you have no bottom line in your thinking. Am I the kind of person who draws from a book? I just like to read.”

Su Jie was speechless. The pen name of his cult gentleman can be said to be the top manga artist in Japan. If he used this pen name to draw books, he would definitely be famous, but the consequences of being famous would be disastrous.

What will my sister and cousin at home think? What do the employees of the company think? What do teachers and friends think? What do cats and dogs think? I can’t live anymore.

“Do you know this kind of painter? Who?” Asuna asked curiously.

“You can’t say this. Don’t ask about other people’s privacy.” Su Jie doesn’t have a big mouth.

The picture book is Ying Lili’s secret, and few people know it now. If Ying Lili knows that Su Jie leaked this secret to Asuna, she will definitely be angry with Su Jie.

“Then I won’t ask anymore. You need to find someone to promote it here. I’m also contacting a few more fanart artists and authors. I will start promoting it next week.”

Seeing that Su Jie didn’t say anything, Asuna didn’t continue to ask, but made arrangements for the publicity, and then said to Su Jie: “By the way, since the character portraits have been completed, we also need to prepare for other publicity. The animation of the same name of “Fleet Collection” is going to be produced by your Firefly company, and the Brunei publishing house you bought, can you promote it?”

“I have already prepared for this. I have already ordered Firefly to start producing the animation of the same name of “Fleet Collection” in a week. I have estimated that if everything goes well, it should be possible to release two animations in the “Fleet Collection” game. Within a week, we will launch our animation of the same name. As for the Brunei Publishing House, it is currently difficult. You know, the situation of the Brunei Publishing House is very bad, and the number of editors is still not enough. Even if there are some improvements now, it is very important for the development of “Fleet Collection” It is not easy to solicit essays for fan works, and it will take a while to recruit enough talents.”

“That’s good. There’s no rush for the publishing house. Just start making animations. With the reputation of Firefly, the animations released can play a big role in publicity. As long as there are no problems with the production, that’s fine.”

“It’s definitely not a problem. With the script that I personally control and the hard power of Firefly, we are no longer the second-rate animation company that we used to be. It is very simple to produce such an animation.”

Su Jie said confidently that Firefly is not too famous in the industry now, at least it is one of the top five animation companies in Japan. Every animation produced by Firefly is a popular masterpiece, and now Firefly has produced it. It must be a boutique statement.

There is no doubt that the launch of Fleet Collection will greatly increase the sales of the game with the help of Firefly’s reputation.

“How’s the sales of our “Plants vs. Zombies”?” Su Jie asked about the sales of another game, Plants vs. Zombies.

After the game was successfully produced, Su Jie left it aside. The promotion and operation were basically under the management of Asuna, and Su Jie only occasionally asked about sales.

“The sales data of “Plants vs. Zombies” is very good. This small mobile phone tower defense game has the fastest sales growth in Europe and the United States. The Japanese market is basically close to saturation. At present, the cumulative sales of 20 million copies worldwide have exceeded 200 million US dollars in profit. It is certain that it will break through 30 million copies in a month’s time.”

Asuna said it very easily, this game has become a well-deserved gold-absorbing behemoth of Panda Games, and the profit of “Bubble Hall” is not at the same level as Plants vs. Anti-small games can sell so well, and the sales volume is approaching the 30 million level.

Su Jie also showed a smile. This game can be sold by any game company. Although the game is small, it can’t bear to make money!

A copy of “Plants vs. Zombies” sells for US$4.99, but the various value-added prop services will also benefit the most. Only when the sales volume is 20 million can it bring 200 million US dollars in revenue to the company.

And relying on the current super popularity of Plants vs. Zombies, sales are still showing rapid growth. Japan is saturated, as well as Europe, America, and Asian countries, etc. The success of this game is that it will not be rejected by the local cultures of the world. , This is like Chinese-style martial arts games, which are not popular in Europe and the United States. Plants vs. Zombies does not have this problem of geographical restrictions.

At the beginning, Su Jie was correct in letting Plants vs. Zombies charge for props. As time goes by, the income from such props will continue to be used by Panda Game Company.To ensure the vitality of this game, just look at the previous life. Even after ten years, many people still keep this simple tower defense game in their mobile phones.

Su Jie is also very satisfied in his heart. Now the profit of Panda Game Company has become one of Su Jie’s important sources of income. This is something Su Jie did not expect when Panda Games was established.

“How about your family?” Thinking of this, Su Jie asked about Asuna’s family. After the Panda Game Company was established, Asuna had a hard time with her family because of this matter. In order to make achievements to prove herself The choice is correct. Asuna has put a lot of effort into the company, and sometimes she is the last one to leave after working overtime. Su Jie sees this and hopes to see the relationship between Asuna and her family ease down.

“My parents have let go, and now they have no objection to my busy work on the Panda Game Company.” Asuna had a comfortable smile on her face, which was a joy from the bottom of her heart. No one wants to quarrel with their parents. As good as ever is of course the best choice.

Asuna tiptoed to the ground, raised her head and whispered to Su Jie, “Also, today is the 19th, and the day after tomorrow is my birthday, so go to my house on time, I told you the address, my parents Everyone wants to see you.”

“I remember this.” Of course, Su Jie will not forget such an important event as Asuna’s birthday. Asuna seems to have a bet with her parents, which seems to be related to herself.

“How are your parents? Can you talk to me?” Thinking of meeting Asuna’s parents, Su Jie was inexplicably nervous.

“Are you scared?” Asuna gave Su Jie a sideways look, a little funny.

“What am I afraid of, I just ask, even if I ask!” Su Jie muttered twice.

I have been with Asuna for so long, from the sophomore year to the graduating from the third year of high school, from the game hacker partner to the company’s entrepreneurial partner, as the best friend, and even crossed the line intimately, Su Jie has never met Yasi Na’s parents.

In contrast, Su Jie has met the parents of Ying Lili, Kasumigaoka Shiwa, and even Shizuka Hiratsuka’s parents, Su Jie has just met, so it can be said that he has a wealth of experience. This time, I don’t know why he was nervous.

“Okay, my parents are not tigers, so you have nothing to be afraid of.” Asuna pursed her lips and smiled, telling Su Jie not to worry.

While talking, Asuna’s cell phone rang.

“Hey!”

“Hello, is this Miss Yuki Asuna?”

A pleasant voice came faintly from the other end of the phone.

After a brief chat, Asuna took the phone away and asked Su Jie: “The reporter from Tegu.com game channel called to come to interview our company, mainly for your “Plant Wars” Interview with the designer of “Zombie”, what do you say, do you want to agree or not?”

Interview?

Su Jie was stunned for a moment. After realizing it, he took the phone from Asuna and said to the other end of the phone, “Hi, I’m Su Jie, the designer of “Plants vs. Zombies.”

“Hi Su Jun, I am Qiuzi Murakami, a full-time reporter for the game channel of Tegu.com. Do you have time? We at Tegu.com hope to conduct an exclusive interview with you. The majority of players are interested in the designer of the game “Plants vs. Zombies.” I’m very curious, we will make reasonable arrangements for the interview, and it won’t take up too much of your time, do you think it’s ok?”

“No problem, tell me a time, as early as possible, I’m free now.”

“Well, we’ll come over in an hour, do you think it’s okay?”

“Then see you in an hour.”

After confirming the time for the interview, he hung up the phone and handed the phone back to Asuna. Su Jie said with a proud smile, “You sit at home and your fame comes from heaven. There is no other way. If you are talented, you will be famous easily.”

“You promised, people will take a camera to make a video later, don’t you usually like to show your face?” Asuna was a little puzzled, if Su Jie had long been famous, the cult gentleman had millions of fans, However, Su Jie has always been very conservative about exposure. He seldom participates in public events, interviews are very rare, and the only one or two times is to ask for a mosaic.

“It’s different now. I’ve graduated from high school, so let’s expose it. Anyway, I don’t plan to keep it a secret.” Su Jie said indifferently.

“Get ready, let’s have a meal first, and come back for an interview later.” Su Jie checked the time, and it happened to be meal time, so he invited Asuna to have dinner together
