Chapter 21: Little Nezha takes charge!

Jiang Yun has been in the gaming industry for nearly ten years.

As one of the first graduates of the game design major at Binjiang University, Jiang Yun was full of enthusiasm and passion when he just stepped out of the school.

He is eager to achieve great success and establish a monument in the field of game design.

He is not satisfied with the gaming environment in China , and even more dissatisfied with the rigidity and obsolescence of the global gaming circle!

He wants to become a pioneer of a new gaming era and create a groundbreaking masterpiece with his own hands!

Games shouldn't just focus on profit!

This is what Jiang Yun thought.

Then.

Reality slapped me in the face!

The countless setbacks he had experienced seemed to be pointing at his nose and scolding him:

If you don’t focus on profit, what do you focus on?

Art? Word of mouth? Do you really want to create happiness for players?

Idiot.

The purpose of making games is money!

This is the only demand of game developers in China and even the world!

What creates new gameplay and what creates a good plot!

Are you sick? Thinking about that?

If you have that much time, why not do more research on the market to see which games are popular recently, or are showing signs of becoming popular, and then copy them right away?

Is it because of money?

that's all!

Over time, when Jiang Yun's edges and corners were smoothed out, he naturally became numb.

Even if ambition occasionally arises, it is only a spark that will be extinguished at the slightest blow.

Just like today.

Forget it.

Why make yourself unhappy?

Jiang Yun comforted himself in his heart.

He became famous in Star, and he was successful in Star. Now that he has finally become a game director, he certainly cannot leave Star.

"So what should we do now, Mr. Chen?"

When Chen Hang's anger had almost subsided, Jiang Yun finally spoke, and asked in a low voice:

"How about I buy another DLC to save it?"

"Why--"

Deputy Chief Chen let out a sigh, glanced at Jiang Yun, and waved his hand:

"Forget it, I have a more important project for you now."

As he was talking, Vice President Chen took out a piece of paper from his desk and handed it to Jiang Yun: "Take a look first."

Jiang Yun took the list and read it carefully.

[Invitation letter to the "Mini Game Development Festival" of Yiyou Platform]

"This is the invitation letter that Yiyou sent us,"

Vice President Chen said:

"In theory, a relatively mature gaming company like us cannot participate,"

"Because they are targeting emerging game companies or studios, or individual designers,"

"But I am more familiar with Yiyou's marketing director, he is my senior."

"They are willing to give us a slack and allow us to participate,"

"According to Yiyou, there will be a voting phase in this competition,"

"If I can win the final voting round and get the majority of the players' votes,"

"Then, the designer who created the game will be featured on the platform's banner."

After saying that.

Vice President Chen raised his eyebrows at Jiang Yun:

"See what I mean?"

hiss--

Chen Hang's words made Jiang Yun gasp.

Designer featured on banner?

Yiyou is trying to create stars.

As we all know!

in the country, whether it is players, developers, or media platforms, they usually only care about game works.

As for the designer who is mainly responsible for the game, no one pays attention to it.

This also leads to the fact that most of the well-known designers in the gaming industry are from abroad.

This time, the Yiyou platform has obviously noticed this problem.

So, they followed the example of foreign countries where the game industry is more developed, and used this mini-game development festival to hope to introduce a benchmark that can represent the new generation of Chinese designers.

This is a rare opportunity!

Jiang Yun's expression froze.

If I can win first place in this game festival, then I will have made it.

At the same time, since the copyright of the games he designed is owned by Starmang, the company can also make a lot of money.

"I see,"

Jiang Yun nodded:

"Mr. Chen, what do you think of the direction of our competition this time...?"

"I think the two games from Golden Wind Games are pretty good, and they have high sales."

Vice President Chen waved his hand:

"Just pick one and copy and modify it!"

…

"Copy and revise? How can that be possible!"

The next day, in the president's office at Golden Wind Gaming Company.

Faced with the game design direction suggested by Chu Qingzhou, Shen Miaomiao immediately denied it.

Yes.

Just now, Shen Miaomiao called Chu Qingzhou and wanted to ask her if she had any opinions or suggestions on the direction of game development for this competition.

After all, Secretary Chu doesn’t understand games!

If you let someone who doesn't understand games design the game framework, the game will most likely be ruined.

However, Chu Qingzhou is not a fool.

Although she doesn't understand games, she has recently studied the production methods of many game companies!

Generally speaking, for a game company to survive in the market and gain a foothold, a groundbreaking work is essential.

It’s just like the martial arts techniques that were founded in martial arts novels.

Then, through this one project, the company can branch out, whether it's DLC or a sequel.

In short, the goal is to quickly grab profits and accumulate capital while the work is still popular.

so!

Chu Qingzhou followed the example of these existing companies on the market and suggested to Shen Miaomiao that they develop a sequel.

If it really doesn't work, you can choose one of the two games, "Cat Rio" and "Who's the Daddy", modify it a little and release it in a different style.

Anyway, both games are very successful!

You can copy any one of them!

In fact, according to the logic of today's game market, Chu Qingzhou's suggestion is not bad at all.

But that's exactly the case!

Shen Miaomiao is the one who has to say no firmly!

What a joke!

Isn’t it obvious that it’s making money?

How could she be so eager to dig a hole for herself?

Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao shook her head and acted righteously:

“We are a company that pursues progress, and Director Gu is also a designer with extraordinary creativity,”

"How can we just rest on our laurels like other companies?"

"Especially in such a crucial competition, which concerns the reputation of the company and Director Gu, we must show our creativity even more."
