Forced to become an idol in order to make games

Chapter 95
When the two of them were heading towards their destination, He Yuqing started talking about the things in the game group, which could be regarded as telling Lu Yu about the situation

"Yesterday I sent your game to my friend, and now it seems that the response is pretty good, and everyone likes it."

"So fast? Are they all night owls?"

Lu Yu didn't expect to get feedback so soon, but considering that He Yuqing is a game anchor herself, she must know people in the game circle, so it's not difficult to understand
"That's not true, it seems that they all played all night. They were still playing when I first went out!"

"That's great! It means that the game I made has been recognized. Do you have any feedback?"

Lu Yu smiled and then asked what he was concerned about. He Yuqing nodded and said
"There is still some feedback. For example, there are some props. But I haven't summarized them here yet. I asked them to send me all the things, and I will give them to you when the time comes!"

"That's fine, you can just give it to me when the time comes."

After Lu Yu finished speaking, he nodded and stopped talking. He Yuqing was also a little curious when she thought of the things that were discussed in the group before. Now that Lu Yu was beside her, He Yuqing asked directly
"Lu Yu, what do you think?"

"Huh? What's your idea?"

Lu Yu looked at He Yuqing with some doubts, and He Yuqing continued
"Are you preparing to release this game globally? It definitely has such potential. And will you do triple-A in the future?"

Lu Yu didn't expect He Yuqing to ask this question, so he couldn't help being a little dazed, but he continued to say
"I don't have a channel for global distribution. I'll contact the GAME platform to see if it's time. I definitely want to distribute it globally. As for whether to do triple-A or not."

Lu Yu couldn't help but pause when he said this. He Yuqing, who was standing next to him, looked over and waited for Lu Yu's next words. Lu Yu smiled and continued.

"I will definitely do triple-A, but you should also know. How expensive it is to make a triple-A, but the cost of capital is not a big problem for me. Now I am mainly afraid that the time cost will be high. A triple-A The research and development time of A is usually two or three years, maybe four or five years, or even ten years, which I can't bear now. So if I want to do triple A, I will definitely find a way Reduce the time cost. After all, I still want to make a few more games.”

"Are you going to benchmark against the top games abroad? Speaking of this time, isn't that the development time that only top games have? You are really thinking too far now."

He Yuqing didn't expect that Lu Yu's idea was to compete with the top international manufacturers' games, which made her a little surprised at his self-confidence, and Lu Yu shook his head slightly and said with a smile
"If you can't reach the top level in foreign countries, how can you be called triple-A? To do it, I must do the best, not barely pass!"

"Then how are you going to reduce the cost of time? This is something that no major international company has done. Isn't every top game made with time?"

He Yuqing offered her own question, while Lu Yu smiled and said

"I have my own way, but I can't do it now, and I will implement it after next year."

"What is the solution? Can you tell me?"

He Yuqing couldn't understand. This kind of thing can't be done just by saying it wants to be done. Seeing this, Lu Yu could only explain briefly.

"What do you think is the most time-consuming part of a game?"

"Plot? Gameplay?"

After all, He Yuqing has never been in touch with game development, so she can only take it for granted and say what she thinks is the most time-consuming thing. After listening to Lu Yu, she shook her head and said
"Although what you mentioned is time-consuming, it is not the big one. The most time-consuming part of a game development is often the optimization of the engine and some rendering modeling and other things that cannot improve efficiency. This is a This is the most time-consuming thing about a game, and there is no way to change it. Just like when you make a video. You will always have to wait for such a long time to render a video. This time is wasted. If it comes out If the effect is not good, or if fine-tuning is needed, then we have to wait for such a long time again.”

"Then there is no way to do this! Is there any way to improve this?"

After hearing this, He Yuqing was even more puzzled. No one could change this thing. Why did Lu Yu say he could do it?
"Do you know a project of the GAME platform?"

Lu Yu asked with a smile, He Yuqing shook her head in doubt, there are so many GAME projects, and she didn't know which one Lu Yu was talking about

"The GAME platform is working on a game engine development and supporting development tools based on a supercomputer platform. If this project is successful, it means that supercomputers can be used to develop games. It's not just to do some rendering. When the time comes The time cost can be greatly reduced."

Lu Yu's words made He Yuqing shake her head and refute
"The GAME platform of this project has been established for many years, and there has been no news until now. Who knows how many years it will be developed? And it may have been abandoned now. It is a waste of time for you to wait for this."

"This project is definitely not abandoned. And I also know that this project is just a step away. It will definitely be successful within two years. It will almost meet my requirements by then."

Lu Yu's words made He Yuqing even more puzzled. Where did Lu Yu know about this state-led project? She couldn't help but ask.

"How did you know?"

"Of course I have my source of information. You just need to know that it will be done within two years. When this comes out, I will consider doing triple-A!"

Lu Yu's source of information was none other than the system. In the system, there was an option to use money and popularity points to improve technology. Although Lu Yu didn't have it for the time being, he still studied this option thoroughly, and then he realized that he was wrong.

If this option is to improve a single item, such as the game stealth equipment that Lu Yu never forgets, the current technological progress of this item displayed in the system is only about 60.00%, and the remaining 40.00% is more than [-]%. Popularity, and the improvement progress is unknown, but there are various small items under these, which are individual projects led by different people, and choosing these is very different from choosing large technologies
Big technology Lu Yu invests in everyone, and has nothing to do with Lu Yu, but there are differences in investing in individual projects. For example, the game project led by the country that Lu Yu saw is one of them, and the progress has reached 90.00% More than five, this project is led by the state and does not require funding

Lu Yu can only choose to invest in popularity points to speed up the completion of this project. The popularity points needed are not much, only 5000 million, and this kind of projects that do not lack funds cannot be invested with money in the system

On the contrary, those Lu Yu who lack funds can choose the investment of money and popularity, buy the project directly or take a share, but although the required popularity value remains the same, the difference in funds between the two options is very large, but all of these are different. It is done by the system, so there is no need for Lu Yu to bother to deal with it
Lu Yu also thought about investing in the development of stealth equipment by himself in the future, but looking at the progress of this technology, Lu Yu feels that it may be an astronomical figure. Lu Yu thinks it is better to have a good relationship with GAME, and it is more reliable to invest in this project with the country. As for other national defense Lu Yu just took a look at projects such as science and technology, and was persuaded by the number of zeros behind the popularity value, which is a completely unimaginable number

The popularity value is obtained based on everyone's love for Lu Yu, which can be high or low. Although there has been constant news about Lu Yu recently, the popularity value has not actually increased much. It has only reached 2000 million now, but fortunately every day It can grow to hundreds of thousands naturally. Lu Yu has been keeping an eye on the GAME project now. He only takes a look at it if he has nothing to do, hoping that it will increase the percentage and reduce the investment in the popularity value. But unfortunately, after a few months, it has not Still stuck at the bottleneck of 90.00%[-]

He Yuqing couldn't help but believe Lu Yu's confident words when she heard Lu Yu's confident words, then nodded and said
"If it is true as you said, then this project can be completed within two years, which can greatly reduce the time cost. However, this kind of project will only be given to large domestic companies. After all, they only have so many supercomputers. Are you sure you can get it?"

He Yuqing's worries are naturally clear to Lu Yu, but he has already learned about this through the system, and then he said

"In fact, this is not the case. This project has been divided into four sections, including mobile games, online games, stand-alone games, and finally the most core full version. You pay for the mobile games and online games and only provide game engines and development tools. , if you want to use the supercomputer, you need to pay extra, the fee is not cheap, and the stand-alone is divided into free and charged, free and directly open to all users, but you need to apply for calling the supercomputer and you need to pay [-]% of the sales of the game Take out ten, of course there is a minimum standard, if it is not enough, you have to make up for it, and for the paid version, you can choose to directly purchase the stand-alone version and use permissions, the cost is not low, it depends on the person coming.”

"So you are interested in the stand-alone version? You should be able to afford this!"

He Yuqing understood this pattern after hearing it, but Lu Yu shook his head and smiled.

"No, I'll buy the stand-alone version, but I'm looking at the full version"

"The full version? By the way, you haven't mentioned the usage conditions of the full version yet. Is this any different? And do you need it?"

He Yuqing then remembered that Lu Yu had a full version that he had not mentioned just now, but in her opinion, this full version was not necessary.
"How to say the conditions of the full version, it is difficult to say, it is not difficult to say it is not difficult"

Lu Yu's intriguing smile caused He Yuqing to pat him and give him a cute look. Then Lu Yu said with a smile
"The condition is to get an official invitation, and you can only make stand-alone games, and you have to sign a gambling agreement. This game must be able to win the top international triple-A game awards, not to mention the annual game at least can participate in the election To do it, the sales volume must be at least tens of millions, and you can get the most complete development tools, and have priority access to supercomputers, and you can also provide personnel if you need them. These are all given to you for free, of course If you fail, you will not only have to pay for the relevant usage fees, but if you do poorly, it is basically impossible for you to survive in China, so you must at least achieve an excellent international level."

He Yuqing was very surprised by the conditions Lu Yu said. This is no longer a game, it can be said to be a political task. Such a request will directly discourage many companies.

"Who dares to agree to such conditions? How dare you challenge this?"

"There is nothing to be afraid of. You have to know that this development tool can save a lot of time. It is precisely because few people in China will agree to this agreement that I have the opportunity. Moreover, this gambling agreement only requires winning a prize. , will not interfere with your game content. All investment in the game is funded by oneself, and the profits are all one’s own. Why don’t I do this kind of thing that brings both fame and fortune! The most important thing now is to get an official invitation, otherwise These are all in vain.”

Lu Yu didn't care about this agreement. With so many excellent game templates in his previous life, Lu Yu expressed no pressure on getting an annual game.

"You also know that you need an official invitation. How can you get an official invitation now? And I am afraid that no company in China would dare to agree to this condition. If you are really desperate, I might not be able to survive."

After playing games for so many years, He Yuqing naturally knows the nature of domestic companies. No one dares to agree to such a condition. If the international triple-A game awards are really so easy to win, they would have rushed over. Sales He Yuqing I don't care, after all, as long as you can get such an award, there is basically no one whose sales volume does not exceed [-] million
"If you can't get it now, it doesn't mean you won't get it in the future. When this game is released now, I believe I will definitely get this invitation!"

Lu Yu replied confidently, and He Yuqing shook her head when she heard Lu Yu's confident words and said
"Do you just believe that this game can become a stepping stone, and the next game can directly win the triple-A award?"

"Yes! If a game with tens of millions of sales can't get this ticket, then I really suspect that there is something wrong with the leadership of GAME!"

"Ten million! Are you thinking too much! How could there be such a high sales volume! This is a sketchy game!"

When He Yuqing heard Lu Yu's sales forecast for the game, she cried out directly. Although He Yuqing thinks this game is okay, she doesn't think it can reach tens of millions of sales. At best, it can be more than 500 million is very good
"We'll see if we can reach it then! How about making a bet now?"

Lu Yu's slightly frivolous tone aroused He Yuqing, and He Yuqing agreed without thinking, saying

"Okay, how do you want to fight!"

"It's quite simple. How about you come over and help me to set up a fund after reaching tens of millions of sales. If I lose, you can mention the conditions as you like!"

Ever since Lu Yu knew that He Yuqing graduated in this field, he had thought about her. If someone like her who has a deep love for games manages this fund, Lu Yu believes that there will be no waste
"Okay, then I'll wait to make the conditions!"

He Yuqing agreed immediately after hearing this condition. She had no reason not to agree to this bet that she believed was a sure win, and even if she lost, He Yuqing was willing to manage such a fund.

"Then it's done! Don't go back on your word!"

"You are the one! You just wait for me to make the conditions!"

The two of them arrived at their destination while talking, and He Yuqing calmed down a bit, and led Lu Yu straight into the shopping mall.
