Play Game of Life

Chapter 77 Brother Lu, you must be joking, right? (710)

After leaving the virtual space of 404 Studio, Lu Zhixing began to tell everyone about the company structure and the specific recruitment plan.

"As I said before, currently 404 studio will be divided into three departments, which are research and development department, transplantation department and action department.

"Among them, the R\u0026D department is mainly responsible for the development of the latest game, right now, of course it is "Walk with Darkness".

"I'll be in charge of the R\u0026D department, and Lu Yixiao is mainly responsible for the plot planning of this game, and by the way, get in touch with more external business matters;

"Liu Bo is mainly responsible for determining the art style of the game, and is also responsible for some internal project management by the way.

"Old Zhao, you will be the person in charge of the transplantation department. After the recruitment is complete, you will take the new employees to transplant "Ordinary Life" to computers and mobile phones. Of course, the operation method and required configuration must be adjusted accordingly. .

"Besides that, you also have a little touch with level design."

At present, there are only three employees in the 404 studio, or more precisely, the initial partners, all of whom are clearly arranged by Lu Zhixing.

Everyone is very excited and ready to shake off their arms and do a big job.

"Hey, by the way, Brother Lu, didn't you say there is an action department, what exactly is that for?" Liu Bo asked curiously.

Lu Zhixing said seriously: "Of course it is responsible for all kinds of actions in the game.

"Walk with Darkness" is a game with parkour as the core gameplay. If the parkour movements are not standard and are picked on by players, how can it work?"

Lu Yixiao asked: "Brother Lu, how many people are you planning to recruit in the action department?"

Lu Zhixing stretched out a finger: "One."

Lu Yixiao was a little surprised: "Just recruit one?"

Lu Zhixing nodded: "Yes, just one."

Lu Yixiao was a little confused: "I'm afraid this is not enough, right? Although recruiting an experienced motion capture actor can complete most of the actions, there are still some interactive actions in it, such as the zombie jumping on the player and the player breaking free. No matter how you think about it, it takes at least two or three people to complete the action, right?"

Lu Zhixing smiled slightly: "I only said to recruit one person, but I didn't say that all these actions were done by one person. All the staff of our 404 studio can be included in the action department."

Everyone was stunned, looking at each other in blank dismay, not wanting to understand what this meant for a while.

Zhao Haoyan suddenly thought of something: "Hey? Brother Lu, what did you say when you answered investors' questions at the competition? What kind of parkour will you arrange?"

His memory is relatively average, but he still remembers such a sentence sporadically.

Lu Zhixing corrected: "What I'm saying is that as a new studio, we have no experience in making parkour-like systems before. In order to ensure that the expected design effect can be achieved, I will arrange for designers to experience parkour in person. , to implement this detailed design.”

Hearing this, both Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao's faces darkened.

Liu Bo's voice was stuttering: "Lu, Brother Lu, this should be just for you to fool investors, right? Right, Brother Lu?"

Lu Zhixing showed him an amiable smile: "Guess?"

Sunday, November 19.

A taxi pulls up on the side of the road.

"Master, we're here, do you want a receipt?" The taxi driver woke up the passengers in the back seat while dialing his watch.

Yao Wenyang yawned and took out his mobile phone to scan the QR code to pay.

I don’t know how long I slept for this sleep, mainly because I worked overtime late yesterday and Saturday, and I didn’t get enough sleep. Although the location of today’s interview is not too far away, it happened to be on the other side of Jinghai City, so it took a long time to drive , fell asleep in the car.

After paying the bill, Yao Wenyang opened the door and was about to get out of the car.

However, as soon as he took a leg, Yao Wenyang looked around, and suddenly realized that something seemed wrong, so he retracted his leg again.

The driver master just wanted to kick the accelerator to drive away and continue to work, but he was stunned when he saw his reaction: "Why, did something fall?"

Yao Wenyang shook his head and rubbed his eyes again.

"Lost things. But the question is... Master, where is this?"

The driver was a little speechless: "Isn't this the location you gave? Building 4, Area C, South Gate, Creative Park, No. 9 Xueyuan Road? Get off the car and walk forward. That place is Building 4."

Yao Wenyang scratched his head in bewilderment: "But what I want to come is a game company!"

Before, he just gave the address of the recruitment email to the driver master, and asked the master to navigate, but now he realizes that the situation is a bit complicated. I hurriedly took out my phone and checked the address, only to find out that the location said "Yufeng Indoor Parkour and Rock Climbing Gym"!

The company name on the map APP has not had time to correct it.

Yao Wenyang was completely confused: "No, no, why is this an indoor parkour gym? It seems that the address was given wrong..."

The driver was very helpless: "Why don't you get out of the car and check first? If not, you can take another taxi. Anyway, there are many taxis and online car-hailing around here. I have to hurry up and take the next order." went."

Yao Wenyang had no choice but to get out of the car with a dazed expression.

Open the recruitment email and double check with the address above.

That's right, it's here?

But he took a closer look at the building in front of him. It was written on the map app that this is a parkour and rock climbing gym, but in reality, it really looks like a parkour and rock climbing gym.

But the problem is, I'm here for an interview at Studio 404 today!

Something must have gone wrong!

Just when he was confused, another online car-hailing car stopped at the door, and a neatly dressed young man with a good figure got out of the car, carrying a small satchel, and seemed to be going in.

Yao Wenyang noticed that the person's satchel seemed to have the words "so and so rock climbing club" written on it.

So he hurried forward: "Hello, can I trouble you to show me the way?"

The other party stopped and said sincerely: "I'm sorry buddy, it's my first time here too. I'm here for an interview."

"Oh?" Yao Wenyang hurriedly asked, "Are you also here for an interview for planning? Or art?"

The other party opened his mouth slightly: "Brother, what are you talking about? Look at my outfit and equipment, and you know that I am a coach."

He patted his satchel: "Teaching rock climbing and parkour, buddy, are you interested? If you want to learn, come to me and sign up for the class, and the price will be 20% off for you."

Yao Wenyang froze: "Parkour... rock climbing... coach? Is this really a parkour and rock climbing gym?"

The other party shook his head: "I don't know what this place is, it was introduced by a headhunter, so I came here. However, apart from the parkour rock climbing gym, there should be no place that can recruit parkour rock climbing instructors, right?"

Yao Wenyang sighed silently, well, I really came to the wrong place!

He knew that 404 Studio was a start-up studio, and it might be a bit informal, but who would have thought that even the company address in the recruitment email could be wrongly written?

"Okay buddy, thank you." Yao Wenyang walked back after speaking, and then took out his phone, ready to make a call to confirm.

As a result, before he took two steps, he heard someone calling himself behind him.

"Hey? Wait. Dude, it seems wrong."

As soon as Yao Wenyang turned his head, he found that the coach who was planning to go in had returned, and he had the same puzzled expression on his face.

"The big sign above it says '404 Game Studio'? How did this parkour and rock climbing gym get such a name?"

Obviously, this coach was as confused as Yao Wenyang.

Yao Wenyang took two steps forward and took a closer look. There was really a "404 Game Studio" sign next to it. It was far away before and I didn't notice it.

"this……"

The two of them looked at each other, both standing there stunned.

After a long silence, Yao Wenyang said: "I think, either there is a problem with this company, or there is a problem with the two of us.

"Why don't you go in and ask?"

The coach nodded: "Go."

The two adjusted their mentality and walked into the main entrance together.

The front desk of the original Parkour and Rock Climbing Gym has now become the front desk of the studio. The newly recruited front desk girl took the resume from the two of them and confirmed her identity.

"Yao Wenyang and Zhong Haibin, right? According to the appointment time, Mr. Zhong Haibin will interview first. Mr. Yao, you came a little earlier, so you can sit for a while and take a rest, or you can go around the company if you want." Sister The voice is sweet and gentle, and the professional quality is quite excellent.

Yao Wenyang was very curious: "Huh? Is our company really recruiting game designers and parkour coaches at the same time?"

The girl at the front desk nodded: "Yes."

Yao Wenyang was very puzzled: "It's strange. Although the game company has a demand for motion capture, it is enough to hire a professional motion capture athlete. Why hire a coach?"

The girl at the front desk smiled and said, "Mr. Lu personally decides the recruitment, and I'm not very clear about it."
