The days of retirement with the singing queen

Lu Anzhi did not expect that Liang Zhe would find Li Huiming and the others, and was a little surprised.

After hearing Li Huiming's words, Lu Anzhi thought for a while and asked first: "Now that we are engaged in Xianxianjingting and Weixiao, do we still have the energy and financial resources to do other things?"

Li Huiming said: "In terms of energy, there is no problem. Xianxianjingting and Weihua are now on the right track. All they need to do is to do follow-up operations and daily maintenance, so they can be free to expand other businesses. In terms of financial resources... it must be Not enough. But with the current scale of the company, it is no problem to get a loan. But Mr. Lu, you are the major shareholder of our company. If you have such an opportunity to expand the company's business, we all feel it is necessary to report to you and see. your opinion."

Lu Anzhi smiled coquettishly, thinking that he, as the company's major shareholder, had become a little relaxed. He had always been a hands-off shopkeeper. It was rare that Li Huiming and the others still remembered him.

——But to be honest, although I usually don't care about the company's affairs, the company's dependence on me is quite strong. Leaving aside the initial investment and providing creative ideas, let’s just say that the subsequent operations of Xianxianjingting and Weihua were all based on their own works. The company's two network products have achieved such results, which is inseparable from themselves.

In other words, the company in this world and its two products, WeChat and Xianxianjingting, are actually products brewed by the earth in the previous life.

After hearing Li Huiming's words, Lu Anzhi pondered for a while, and then asked: "Have you discussed the prospects of this game company? As far as I know, Jiji Company has made two games, both of which failed, and the losses are unbearable. Only if we want to continue, we will look for investment. If we take over this game company, can we ensure that it turns losses into profits?"

Li Huiming said: "We have discussed it and just reported it to Mr. Lu. After they came to us for investment, we also carefully investigated this game company. The structure of this company is very simple, and everyone is involved in the game." In order to serve the development of games, they completely ignored marketing publicity and game production market research. Therefore, the final product they produced was technically sound, but was very lacking in other aspects."

Lu Anzhi nodded inwardly. Li Huiming's views were the same as his own feelings when he played Liang Zhe's "Dragon Clan" game.

Li Huiming continued: "If there is good creative support and reliable game announcements, it will be no problem for this game company to come back to life. There are many excellent games on the market for reference, and we don't need to come up with how good or good they are. There are so many incredible game ideas - even those of us who have not been exposed to the game industry can't do this - but we should carefully analyze the excellent works on the market, refine their advantages, sum up experience, and hand it over to this company To make the finished product and then rely on our WeChat products for promotion, I think it will be no problem to at least turn a loss into a profit.”

Lu Anzhi smacked his lips. Why did Li Huiming's description sound so familiar?

Then he heard Li Huiming say again: "In addition, if we invest in this company, I think we can not only focus on stand-alone games, but also online games. The idea is still as I just said, refer to the excellent people in the world now Online games, refine the advantages, sum up experience, and make our own games. Later, we can rely on WeChat, a huge user group, so that players who are interested in the game can log in using account association to attract traffic to the game. In this way, as long as the game If it passes the customs and publicity is in place, it should be no problem.”

Good guy!

Lu Anzhi reacted.

Isn't this the Sharingan company that penetrated his entire gaming era in his previous life? !

Lu Anzhi immediately nodded and said, "Okay, you can just come and see. There is no problem with the idea, but I hope that if you are creative, you can refine the advantages and make your own characteristics. Don't start from scratch. Full copy from end to end.”

Li Huiming said: "Okay, Mr. Lu, we know. Maintaining the company's excellent reputation is also what we need to do."

After the call with Li Huiming ended, Lu Anzhi was still in a daze for a while. When I came to this world, I just copied books and songs. For my own convenience and to help others, how could I create such a company? !

Although this company is different from a certain company in the previous life and did not work on chat software, the final path it took seems to be no different from that company.

Well, right...

Now is the era of smartphones. There is a software that I think I can mention to the company.

He thought of something and called Li Huiming again.

"What's wrong, Mr. Lu?"

Li Huiming asked on the phone.

Lu Anzhi said: "Don't you want to expand your business? I have an idea here. If you want to do it, you can give it a try. Of course, if you don't want to do it, it's no problem."

Li Huiming immediately cheered up and asked, "What idea? Mr. Lu, tell me." It was Lu Anzhi's creativity and ideas that shocked him so much. Li Huiming feels that it is a pity that Mr. Lu has taken the two paths of writing novels and songs. If Mr. Lu officially enters the Internet field, he may be able to crush others.

He always felt that Lu Anzhi's vision and thinking on the Internet were advanced, and he was way ahead of this era.

Lu Anzhi said: "I have seen that people's mobile phones have gone through another round of upgrades during this period. Although I bought a mobile phone last year and did not replace it this year, when I look at other people's mobile phones, they have all switched to the large-screen mode. It seems that There’s also gravity sensing, right?”

Li Huiming said: "Yes, that mobile phone is very popular. The screen can be turned around to watch TV. It feels great. But I don't think it is very convenient. The operation buttons all rely on the matching stylus, which will be eliminated sooner or later."

Lu Anzhi said: "You are right, this kind of stylus should be eliminated sooner or later. But if a company invents a suitable capacitive screen, we can directly touch the screen with our fingers to achieve the effect of a stylus. What do you think will happen?"

Li Huiming was stunned.

Lu Anzhi said: "But that's not what I'm telling you. We make Internet products, and we don't do mobile phone business. I just said that mobile phones will only become more and more intelligent, and the mobile applications we develop should also I have some thoughts on these.”

Li Huiming took a breath immediately and asked, "Mr. Lu, do you have any good ideas?"

Lu Anzhi said: "I'm thinking that the current mobile phone applications are mainly transplanted products of computer products, and there are none specifically for mobile phones. This is a blank market. If you want to, you can try it."

Li Huiming asked directly: "Mr. Lu, what do you recommend?"

Lu Anzhi said: "How about chat software?"

Li Huiming was stunned: "Chat software?! Not suitable, right? Now Qiuqiu is so powerful, how can we beat Qiuqiu when we make chat software?"

Lu Anzhi said: "You think Qiuqiu is great because it is great on the computer. You think so, and others think so too. No one is competing with Qiuqiu to grab this track. But compared to mobile phones, Qiuqiu is still It is too bloated. After so many years of development, many of its things and applications are unnecessary on mobile phones. If we can refine and simplify those functions and only make a simple mobile chat application, we can achieve overtaking in corners. of."

Later, Lu Anzhi gave Li Huiming many suggestions, such as Moments, who can only see the replies in Moments, page layout, etc.

Li Huiming had been listening with an open mind and attentively. He felt that what Lu Anzhi said made sense, but based on this alone, he felt that it was still a bit difficult to win over Qiuqiu. He asked: "But Qiuqiu has already achieved the first-mover advantage on both computers and mobile phones. What we have done is just to make a chat software more suitable for mobile phones. We are already used to Qiuqiu's Users, relatives and friends are all on Qiuqiu, so it will be difficult to transfer to a new chat software, right?"

Lu Anzhi said: "You think Qiuqiu has already occupied the first-mover advantage, but in fact it is not enough. The main users of Qiuqiu are still those people who have been exposed to the Internet in advance, and most of them are young people. I don't know if you play Qiuqiu. , but if you have played it, you should know that when people play Qiuqiu, they basically find online groups with the same hobbies and attributes on Qiuqiu, and rarely communicate with real friends and relatives through Qiuqiu.

"Don't forget, there are not just young people in this world. If you want to create a new chat software, you must also find a way to attract older mobile phone users who are not very familiar with the Internet, so that this Products become connections between family, friends, and work.”

But speaking of it, Lu Anzhi doesn’t want such a product to become a work connection. In his previous life, he had had enough of checking in, posting work photos, and likes in work groups. He really didn't want to experience this world again.

But fortunately, in this world, he doesn’t work. He doesn’t need to take photos to leave traces, and he doesn’t need to like other people’s work photos. When such a product comes out, the pain will belong to others and has nothing to do with you.

Li Huiming suddenly became excited and said: "I understand! Mr. Lu, this thing is very exciting! Mr. Lu, you can always find the direct difference between computer applications and mobile applications. It's really amazing! It's just that we really made it For such a product, we must ensure that it can spread quickly. If it is slow, it will probably be noticed by Qiuqiu and lose its advantage."

Lu Anzhi said: "Have you forgotten that I just told you about the current smartphone?"

"ah!"

Li Huiming said one word, but he didn't understand it for a moment.

Lu Anzhi said: "If we add a function to the new software, such as shake, we can connect two strangers who are shaking their phones at the same time, and then chat and contact each other anonymously. You Do you think it will attract people to install the machine?"

"ah!"

Li Huiming made another sound, but this time it was more of an exclamation.

Lu Anzhi thought of something again and said, "But speaking of which, you can put this one away. There is another one. You know the drift bottle, right?"

Li Huiming said: "I know, it's just like putting a piece of writing paper inside the bottle, letting the bottle drift in the sea, and drifting into the hands of the destined person. It's actually a bit unrealistic, but many movies and TV dramas like to use these bridges Duan, it looks romantic."

Lu Anzhi said: "What do you think if you add such a romantic tool to the mobile chat application? Someone writes a paragraph and sends out a drift bottle. Another stranger fishes for the bottle and picks it up. Then he can reply with a paragraph and insert it into the bottle. Send it back in the bottle. We can implement this function first and open up the installed capacity of mobile chat software first. After that, this function will gradually become boring. By then, maybe the penetration rate of smart phones will be greater. Shake it up again.”

Li Huiming was silent for a long time and said, "Mr. Lu, I'm calling everyone to a meeting now. I'll talk to you after the meeting!" After that, he hung up the phone.

Lu Anzhi could hear that Li Huiming's voice was a little excited.

It seemed that he listened to everything he said.

I wonder if this product can be made? If it works, you will have WeChat and a chat software that will occupy almost all mobile phones. Then it can be said that the company of myself and Li Huiming will become a behemoth.

Lu Anzhi exhaled softly.

However, I just opened my mouth and didn't seem to do anything, and all these things came out? Why do I have such a strong sense of unreality?

Forget it, don’t think about it anymore. In previous lives, penguins could develop into such behemoths because of a combination of various factors. In this world, even if you make these suggestions, you may not be able to reproduce the behemoths of your previous life.

The opinions that need to be raised have been put forward, and then you can continue to be your own hands-off shopkeeper. There is no need to worry about these things all the time.

Only by staying true to your original intention can you always succeed. What you want is a warm bed with your wife and children.

Thinking of this, Lu Anzhi regained his composure and continued his daily routine.

Song Xiaoqin was going to stay here for a few days, so she and Zhang Suxin went out again and bought a DVD of an idol drama to watch. After Lu Anzhi played Jiji Company's "Dragon", he suddenly became interested in games in this world again.

He liked playing games in his previous life, but compared to those players in his previous life who valued gameplay more than graphics, he preferred games that had equally good gameplay while ensuring quality graphics.

After my eyes have been exposed to images with higher resolution and refresh rate, it is always a little uncomfortable to go back to play games with relatively poor graphics. In his previous life, he played Monster Hunter Rise for hundreds of hours on the NS, and also played next-generation PS and PC games. When he went back to play Rise of the Monster Hunter, his eyes couldn't accept it.

Not just games, but mobile phones and TVs too. Once you adapt to better refresh rates and images, it will be difficult to go back to the past.

This thing differs from person to person. Regardless of others, Lu Anzhi's eyes are like this.

Before he came to Zhang Suxin and Xianxian, he had played previous games. At that time, the game graphics were still unacceptable to him, but now that he is watching the "Dragon" game, it is much better.

It seems that within a year, the game engine has also undergone changes, to the extent that he can accept it.

He went out with Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin. When the two women went to pick out idol drama CDs, Lu Anzhi went to the game store and asked the boss to introduce them. He bought two game CDs and a controller by the way.

After I came back, I installed the game and tried it, and it felt pretty good. After the graphics were improved, a game concept similar to "Final Fantasy VII" was developed in this world. The plot and graphics were pretty good, and the gameplay was just okay. He had a lot of fun playing it.

After playing the game for two days, he finished one game and planned to take a rest and code for a day. Then he would bring his father-in-law and mother-in-law over to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival and weekends before playing another game.

And that night, he received a call from Liang Zhe.

Why is this guy calling me again?

Lu An was a little puzzled for a moment, but he still answered the phone.

"Mr. Lu."

As soon as the call was connected, Lu Anzhi heard Liang Zhe's voice.

"Hello, what's the matter?"

Lu Anzhi asked.

Liang Zhe said: "Mr. Lu, our company has accepted your company's investment and has become a member of your company. I really didn't expect that WeChat and XianXianjingting are actually your products."

Lu Anzhi then understood that Li Huiming had completed the acquisition of Liang Zhe Jiji's company and revealed some inside information to Liang Zhe.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but he could faintly hear a hint of admiration in Liang Zhe's voice.

"I didn't do anything. The company is mainly run by Brother Li. I just made some suggestions."

Lu Anzhi said.

But Liang Zhe hurriedly said: "Mr. Lu, please don't say that! For the Internet industry, the correct thinking and direction are the most important. Mr. Li and the others also have high regard for you."

Lu Anzhi suddenly realized something after hearing Liang Zhe's words. But Liang Zhe hadn't said it in detail yet, so he didn't speak randomly.

Sure enough, the next thing I heard was Liang Zhe say: "Mr. Lu, I have a heartfelt request. I wonder if I can tell you about it?"

Only then did Lu Anzhi express his thoughts: "You don't want me to give you some advice on making games, do you?"

Liang Zhe smiled coquettishly and said, "Mr. Lu, you guessed it."

Lu Anzhi said quickly: "It's better to say goodbye. I can't suggest this. A game is a game, and it's different from other games. This is out of line."

Liang Zhe was silent for a while and said: "Okay, I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, it's just my imagination. I really can't fail anymore. If I fail again, I will have no choice but to go back and inherit the family business."

Lu Anzhi: "..."

He really wanted to ask Liang Zhe if he knew how unreasonable his words were. Such conditions are what many people dream of, but this guy said such things.

"Are you so resistant to your family's business?"

Lu Anzhi asked.

Liang Zhe said: "It's not that I resist my family's business, it's that I really like games and want to play games. But after I go back, I won't have the time and energy to play games."

Lu Anzhi said: "Sorry, I didn't see it."

"Well……"

Liang Zhe was slightly startled.

Lu Anzhi said: "I have experienced your game "Dragon". Let's put it this way, I can see that the game you made is a barely qualified industrial product, but I don't think it is a game for people who like games. Games made.”

Liang Zhe was silent for a while and said, "Sorry, I didn't quite understand..."

Lu Anzhi: "..."

I made it so clear, but this guy still doesn’t understand...

"To put it in simpler terms, do you like playing the game you made?"

Liang Zhe was stunned, and then said in a low voice: "I haven't thought about this, I just want to make the game..."

Lu Anzhidao: "That's it. You regard making games as a task, so how can you make excellent and fun games?"

Liang Zhe was silent for another while and said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Lu, you are right. There is something wrong with my mentality. Our entire company has been affected by me, and there is a problem with my mentality."

Unknowingly, Liang Zhe's address to Lu Anzhi had changed from "sir" to "teacher."

After saying that, he said hello to Lu Anzhi and hung up the phone.

Later, when Lu Anzhi was chatting with Zhang Suxin and Song Xiaoqin, he talked about Liang Zhe's call. Song Xiaoqin sighed for a while and said that fortunately her parents only urged her to get married and did not force her to inherit the family business. It was much easier than Liang Zhe.

Lu Anzhi and Zhang Suxin looked at each other, both speechless. Fortunately, the woman was speaking to the couple. If anyone else were listening here, they would probably think that the woman was in Versailles.

That night, Liang Zhe called again and said, "Sorry to bother you, Teacher Lu. I still want to ask you for advice. From your words, I feel that you also like games. I now My thoughts are stuck, I hope someone can help me break it down."

To a certain extent, this guy is quite persistent.

Lu Anzhi thought for a while and asked first: "What kind of games do you like to play?"

Liang Zhe said: "In my case, I like to play games where I cooperate with others to fight together. There are different levels, different bosses, challenges and achievements. You can compete or cooperate and share. I have played a game before, called "Insight" was very popular at that time, I wonder if you have heard of it, Teacher Lu?"

He wanted to continue talking, but Lu An said "no" and blocked his words.

Lu Anzhi thought for a moment and said, "I have some suggestions. Let me tell you. You can see if you think it's appropriate."

Liang Zhe said: "Teacher Lu, tell me."

Lu Anzhidao: "You have already bought the IP of "Dragon" before, and this IP can still be used. You can create a dragon-slaying game based on the world view of "Dragon" and using Kassel Academy as the player base. Players are Students who graduate from the academy and join the Action Department. This is the background foundation.

In this game, you try to simplify the plot as much as possible and put more experience into the player's mission of participating in the action through the operations department and hunting dragons.

"Then in terms of gameplay, it will test how you design the map and dragon clan. There are also various weapons in the academy, which need different moves and derivation, as well as the combination of words and spirits, etc..."

He recalled the characteristics, combinations, and magic modifications of games such as "Dragon Nest" and "Monster Hunter" in his previous life, and gave Liang Zhe suggestions.
