Forced to become an idol in order to make games

Chapter 154 Personnel
"Co-author, you are interested in my people! Tell me, how many people do you want?"

Wang Pengtao laughed directly. He could still decide on this condition. If he just wanted people, he could find them for Lu Yu in any number.

"It would be best if all the engine developers come over. I have already contacted the special effects side, and Huayun will be in charge. I don't need screenwriters. The most lacking thing is these developers. After all, there is no one for the new engine now." I know better than them!”

Lu Yu directly put forward the request. He has long taken a fancy to these developers. Only these people can use the performance of the engine to the extreme at the fastest speed, and they can solve problems by themselves. Lu Yu should not waste such an opportunity.

"How dare you think about it! Do you know how many people are involved in this project?"

Wang Pengtao was surprised when he heard Lu Yu's words, and he wanted everyone to come over to help.

"What's wrong? Are there many people?"

"Of course! This project has lasted ten years, and there are as many as ten thousand participants. And the completion of this project does not mean that it will be abandoned directly. Many of them will participate in the second generation research and optimize the current one. It must have been unrealistic in the past, even if I give you all, can you afford to support so many people? You must know that many of them are masters in the world!"

Wang Pengtao explained to Lu Yu a little bit. With the completion of the first generation, even if this quota fails in the end, the project itself will not be stopped. The engine itself is used to make money. Naturally, personnel are needed to update and optimize. When the project ends, the first Those people have already invested in the second-generation team that has been established since time.

"There are so many people! That's indeed a bit too much. I thought there were only a thousand people at most, and I can afford it even if I grit my teeth!"

Lu Yu didn't expect so many people to participate, but considering the difficulty and time of this project, Lu Yu can understand it. Only the GAME platform can support it. Other companies have long since given up. It is simply a bottomless pit. .

"Then you underestimate us. About a thousand people were invested in this project at the beginning, and they were scattered in several major cities. After that, people continued to be added every year. After so many years, the volume has long been no longer an ordinary one. Now, and not all of them are developing engines, and there are also people responsible for supercomputing and other things, so there are so many people!"

Lu Yu nodded in understanding after listening, and Wang Pengtao said with a smile when he saw this.

"In this way, I will arrange a few hundred people for you. Anyway, it will not be less than five hundred. You use it first. If there is still a shortage of people, I can also find someone to help you urgently. This plan works. ?"

"Okay, so many people are enough, plus the foreign aid you mentioned, it's not a big problem!"

Seeing this, Lu Yu nodded to confirm, and Wang Pengtao asked after seeing this.

"But I have to remind you, you have already found the special effects, I will reduce the number of people in this area, and other technologies will only send the team leader, and everyone else is working remotely, you can accept this! After all The people who give you can’t be bad, most of them have families and rooms, and they are scattered in different cities, we also need to consider the issue of humanization! And if you really find 600 people to go there, do you have a place to put them?”

"Telecommuting? This...!"

Lu Yu didn't expect that this would happen. These people could only send representatives over. Lu Yu was also a little entangled at this time. After all, if the developers of the game are not here, there will be some time delays. It is certain that there will be errors.

Wang Pengtao was hesitant when he saw Lu Yu, and knew that the conditions were not very good, but even if this matter was reported to the headquarters, the final result was the same. After all, there were too many people involved, and it would definitely be unrealistic for them all to gather under Lu Yu's subordinates. Wang Pengtao Seeing this, he said immediately.

"Don't worry, I have arranged here to be the team leader of this project. There are not many people, about dozens of people. These people have been here for many years, and most of them are their team members. You hand over the project to them , with their tacit understanding, there is actually no difference from the scene, and you are also a star after all, and you are filming now. With your attitude, next year's work will only be more or less. Telecommuting should be the norm, so these people can't live. It's all the same, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Lu Yu thought for a while and could only accept it. Wang Pengtao's words were true. He hadn't finished filming the Condor God yet, and next year he will be filming a TV series about Immortal Sword. At least the first half of the year will have to be spent on it. That's for sure, since he is like this, he can't force others, and then he opened his mouth.

"Okay, that's all we can do!"

Seeing that Lu Yu agreed, Wang Pengtao felt relieved, and then smiled.

"Since you agreed, let's talk about wages and benefits. How about this, don't ask too much. These people are worth 5000 million a year! The people who support are free, so it's not included!"

"what!"

"What? Too much?"

Seeing Lu Yu's astonished face, Wang Pengtao asked with some concern that he had already discounted the price a lot, and if Lu Yu wanted to lower it, he would be very embarrassed, and Lu Yu shook his head quickly when he saw this, and said hastily.

"No, no, no! Not much! I think it's too little, 5000 million is a big deal for me!"

Lu Yu naturally knows the price of these people. With so many people, Lu Yu is prepared to pay more than 5000 million a year. If the money is not enough, he is ready to go to Yun Feiyan first and use his own small treasury. Who would have thought? Wang Pengtao actually only wanted a price of [-] million, which means that the GAME platform itself has to bear part of the wages of these people.

"As a wise boy, you are indeed a bargain with the 5000 million yuan! That's settled, by the way, do you need me to find a painter for you?"

Wang Pengtao cursed with a smile, it seems that Lu Yu is still very aware of the importance of these people, thinking that these people are technicians, he immediately asked.

"No need, I have candidates for the painters!"

Seeing this, Lu Yu shook his head. The candidate for the artist has been confirmed. He Yuqing introduced him earlier. Isaac and the others have done a very good job, and they have a group of people from Jinghua Academy of Fine Arts who can directly accept them. Lu Yu has already talked about it. alright.

"What about the people who motion capture these?"

"This one hasn't been selected yet. I'm not familiar with it. Does Director Wang recommend any good companies in China?"

Lu Yu shook his head after hearing this. He hadn't paid attention to this aspect yet, so naturally he didn't know it clearly. When Wang Pengtao saw this, he said with a smile.

"That's just right. We actually have a set of supporting motion capture technology and equipment here, but we haven't had time to use it in games yet. How about you help us try it?"

"Is this engine and this all matched?"

Lu Yu didn't expect this to be available as a package, so he couldn't help being a little surprised. After all, this has nothing to do with game development, and most of it is used in film and television, while Wang Pengtao nodded.

"Of course, if we want to do it, we will do the best. There must be supporting facilities for this, and the technology must be the top in the industry, but the price is a bit expensive! If you add the top catch, it will be even more expensive! Of course, it must be an internal price for you!"

"A face-to-face arrest is definitely needed, and the shape of the face may not be needed. The specifics will depend on the time. How much will it take to solve it?"

Lu Yu thought about it for a while and asked, the face shape is definitely not needed, although it is good for publicity, but it is undoubtedly another expense, and now the salary is 5000 million, not counting other development costs in the future, Lu Yu's current Money is also a little tight.

"About tens of millions. You can accept this price. Anyway, it won't exceed 1000 million. If it doesn't take long, I can lower it for you. Let's see when the time comes!"

Wang Pengtao probably gave an offer, and Lu Yu compared it with his previous life, and found that the price was not expensive, and he could accept it, then he nodded and said.

"Okay, then let's use this price, and wait for the specific time to connect!"

"Well, that's it. Is there anything else you need here?"

Lu Yu thought for a while, and this time he came here to solve everything that should be solved, and he couldn't think of anything that needed help, so Lu Yu shook his head immediately.

"It's gone for the time being. If there is still a need, then Director Wang will help!"

"What are you talking about? Just come to me if you need it. I won't say anything if I can help. It's all for the purpose of making a game and standing on the award platform. Naturally, we will give the greatest support here!"

Wang Pengtao will not make any excuses on this point. As long as a satisfactory work can be produced in the end, no matter whether it is him or Lu Yu, the benefits they can get will far outweigh these sacrifices, and they will naturally try their best to help Lu Yu.

"That's natural. See you on the podium the year after next!"

"Okay! I'll wait and see what you say!"

The two looked at each other and smiled, and they still had a lot of confidence in the prospects of this game. However, Director Liu, who was the selection committee for the Gold Cover Award for many years, expressed some concern at this time.

"Lu Yu, your game is too oriental. Foreign players may not understand it. The market is not small. You may have to give up the possibility of giving up that market!"

"Old Liu, why are you saying such a disappointment? What we want is a work that represents oriental culture. Lu Yu is very suitable for this. Besides, the game made in the Asian region alone will definitely be able to make the list. Extravagant!"

Wang Pengtao was able to agree to Lu Yu, so naturally he had considered this issue a long time ago. As the person in charge of publishing, he knows the sales of various game types in different regions. Xianjian is definitely qualified to enter the annual game selection only by relying on the Asian market. As long as Lu Yu He still has certainty that it can be done according to the idea.

"The two may not understand well. Although I represent the oriental culture, which is not as bold and direct as foreign countries, but the core is understandable by everyone. These things are common in the world. As long as the translation is in place, Those who pay abroad may not necessarily pay a lower price!"

The reason why Lu Yu chose Immortal Sword was not only because of its status in the previous life, but more because of whether it was suitable for distribution in the world. With the core appearance of Immortal Sword, even foreigners who don't understand oriental culture can still feel the essence of the story. The emotion brought, this is the advantage of this script.

"This is the truth, don't worry, we will take care of the translation, it will definitely give you a sense of beauty, but for the dubbing, who are you going to find?"

Wang Pengtao laughed. In fact, Lu Yu hadn't thought it through yet, he only had a general idea, and then he said.

"I haven't decided yet. I don't know whether to use people from the TV series to dub the voice, or whether to hire someone specially. The former may need to capture the face model, while the latter can be used to demonstrate the whole process with CG!"

"Have you decided on the actor? If it matches with the TV series and the celebrity is big enough, finding them will definitely be a plus for the country! Otherwise, I recommend finding someone to dub!"

Wang Pengtao thought for a while and gave this answer, Lu Yu nodded and said.

"It's almost decided. I will play the male lead, Ren Fanshuang will play Ling'er, Sister Han Yun will play Qing'er, and Yueru and Anu are still being scouted!"

In the end, Rao Linghui did not bypass Zhao Hanyun, and found her the role of Qinger. After Zhao Hanyun read the script, he had no objection to this role, and directly agreed to it. Now these three people have been decided, and Rao Linghui is still in the other roles. He is not very clear about the specific circumstances of the selection.

"Zhao Hanyun, you? Then I recommend using a face model. Zhao Hanyun has a big celebrity and is well-known abroad, especially in Asia. If you persuade her to come, it will definitely be better than CG! And your appearance, I'm afraid Even CG can't draw a better face than you!"

When Wang Pengtao heard this candidate, he directly recommended a face model. Lu Yu's face shape was perfect, Zhao Hanyun was a huge celebrity, and Ren Fanshuang was only famous in China, but since he used it, it must be a full set, and he could rub it by the way.

"Director Wang, I'm ashamed of your boasting, but since you said that, I'll go back and talk to them. If they don't want to, let's talk about it!"

Lu Yu laughed straight away, and he was sure that they would agree to play Lu Yu, but in this way, Lu Yu felt that Xiansan's Zixuan could consider Zhao Hanyun to do it again, but he didn't know if she would be interested in this role up.

"That's fine, let's get in touch again at that time, and we're almost finished talking today, so, you go back first, and I'll report it immediately to confirm this matter, and I will definitely give you news tomorrow!"

"That's fine, then I'll wait for the good news from Director Wang!"

"Don't worry, what I say will definitely count. No one can handle it this time!"

Wang Pengtao glanced at He Yuqing calmly, and He Yuqing, who was standing by the side, nodded secretly. Wang Pengtao felt relieved. With her nodding, it was basically confirmed. Lu Yu didn't notice the small movements of the two of them, so he stood up. Come, said with a smile.

"Okay, then let's go first, Isaac, don't forget to log me in!"

"I forgot about this, don't worry, I will go online for you later! The publicity has been prepared for you!"

"That's fine, Yuqing, let's go!"

"kindness!"

After the two greeted each other, they didn't stay any longer, and Wang Pengtao and the others had to make some preparations, so naturally they wouldn't stay. After sending the two to the elevator entrance, they went back to prepare for this matter.
