Chapter 228 Fertilizer water does not flow outsiders field

"A question about funds?" Chen Tiancai asked back, and at the same time began to ponder in his mind.

Chaoyang Network has survived by breaking its arm, and its revenue in the past two years has been good, so there should be no financial problems.

Moreover, Liu Cheng is the oldest person in Chaoyang Network, so it stands to reason that his project will not be blocked.

"It's not a question of funds, but it's actually a question of funds. I don't want you to laugh when I say it. In fact, we are a little scared this time." Liu Cheng spread his hands and said.

"Small-cost and small-scale games are okay, because they don't need a lot of funds, so it's okay even if they fail. But this time we prepared a development cost of [-] million yuan. When things come to an end, Lao Zhang and I still I'm afraid." Liu Cheng's next words were filled with a kind of desolation, and his eyes were also very confused.

Chen Tiancai also fell silent.

In the industry, in fact, all developers will have a manifestation called "pre-release depression". The actual manifestation is that in the final period before the game's release, these developers will not eat well, sleep well, and worry about themselves all the time Years of hard work in vain.

But looking at the real situation, the state before the development of a 3A game is the most uncomfortable for developers.

A huge amount of funds has been prepared, and even the planning book about the game has been written, but it is still a hurdle to completely calm down and start production.

Because for game developers, this period of preparation time is like the ancient emperor preparing a hundred thousand elite soldiers, who will send the talents and wealth accumulated by these countries for many years to the unknown battlefield.

As for the emperor, it is very uncertain what the final battle will be like when he fell to the ground.

Chen Tiancai is very clear about the situation of Chaoyang Network with a capital amount of [-] million. This shows that Zhang Yang, the boss of Chaoyang Network, and Liu Cheng and his group are almost betting on their lives to do this.

If Chaoyang Network faces failure this time, it will have no capital to start over and will have no choice but to hate this industry.

"In the final analysis, it is still a matter of risk, or we old men are becoming more timid as we live." Fang Jingtang was much calmer than Liu Cheng, and made a joke to ease the gloomy atmosphere of the scene a little.

Liu Cheng smiled wryly, and stroked the nearly white hair on his head, which shows how much pressure he has been under recently.

However, Chen Tiancai still has a solution for this matter. The root problem is just like what Fang Jingtang said, that is, the risk cost is too high this time, so as long as someone takes the risk, it will be fine soon.

In other words, this can be achieved by finding a major issuer in the industry to invest.

But when it comes to Chaoyang Network's big project, it is impossible for Chen Tiancai to take risks with Zange Network's money. Although it is foreseeable that Zange Network's income will get better and better in the future, he still spends a lot.

But fortunately, Chen Tiancai's connections in the industry over the years are very solid, and it is not difficult to find a 'taken advantage'.

"In this way, I will introduce you to the people of Suo Dafa. You can consider cooperating with them. They are still very enthusiastic about the development of the domestic market." Naturally, Chen Tiancai thought of Suo Dafa. Suo Dafa is not only really rich, but more because of the PS platform.

"Is this going to work? Although our company has been in business for many years, this is the first time we have developed 3A. Is Suo Dafa Association willing to fund us?" Fang Jingtang asked.

Chen Tiancai smiled, and continued: "Don't worry about that. In fact, we will develop a limited-time exclusive game for Suo Dafa now. As long as you join their limited-time exclusive plan, they will still be very generous in terms of funds."

"Also, don't worry about exclusivity. Although the sales volume of the steam platform is good and the cost is very low, if you want to turn to the largest console platform, you still have to look at Suo Dafa's PS."

Although the sales volume of PS5 has not caught up with the PS4 in the same period, it is still the first in this generation. Coupled with Suo Dafa's good platform maintenance, the sales volume of 3A games is still here.

After all, whether it is from the risk of being cracked or the plug-in of online games, the console platform is still the best game platform.

In addition, in order to attract more manufacturers to settle in these years, Suo Dafa has also relaxed the restrictions on exclusive games. According to different contracts, it can basically log in to other platforms in about one and a half years.

Although this kind of behavior deviates from those players who are aiming for monopoly, in fact, this kind of behavior has made Suo Dafa gain a lot of favor from PC players, which may be the reason why PS5 can keep pressing XBOX after its release.

"In addition, I can give you the bottom line. As long as the game is released with the world engine, there will be no worries about being cracked." In order to give these two seniors more confidence, Chen Tiancai revealed the biggest secret.

"It won't be cracked!" Liu Cheng and Fang Jingtang said in unison, and their mouths grew very big at the same time. Obviously, this hidden news surprised them.

It is a commonplace problem that the game is cracked.

But the realization of this is not because of the world engine, but because Chen Tiancai has an almost all-round world editor.

Again, there were too many things involved in this matter, and Chen Tiancai didn't want to be the leader, so he didn't publicly declare this characteristic.

However, Chen Tiancai still marked a feature of the world engine on the official website of Ange Network, that is, it has the latest game encryption method, which can prevent it from being cracked within a year.

In fact, all the developers who are using the world engine do not care about this small point, because the industry is accustomed to piracy and does not care about this aspect.

But in the face of Liu Cheng and Fang Jingtang, Chen Tiancai still revealed this secret, just to reassure them, but he still warned: "This matter is actually a secret, and I hope it will not be disclosed."

Liu Cheng and Fang Jingtang gave Chen Tiancai a look and nodded solemnly.

"In addition, in fact, I also plan to set up a domestic 3A subsidy fund in the name of Anthem Network, which will provide technical support and funds to some small and medium-sized manufacturers at a preferential price. It is estimated that you will be able to use it in the middle of the development. Don't forget to call me." Chen Tiancai said another idea of ​​his own, and gave Liu Cheng and the others their last reassurance.

The market of an industry cannot be made big by one company, and in the future Chen Tiancai will need the help of other game manufacturers for the game 'Shimmer', and domestic game developers will naturally become Chen Tiancai's first choice.

And this idea may require a lot of qualified game developers, so Chen Tiancai decided to train a group of small and medium-sized developers by himself, and even if there is a big project, he can integrate them together.

It's the same reason he heard from his father since he was a child: the fat and water don't flow into the fields of outsiders!
