i really just want to play games

Chapter 68 Project Approval
Four o'clock in the afternoon the next day.

At the regular meeting of Praise Network, Pei Guangming, who has become vaguely the second in command, pointed to the PPT on the curtain and said:
"Boss, this is the situation since the release of "Hunting Crisis" one month ago. It is expected that by the end of this year, the total sales will exceed 140 million, and the monthly in-app purchase revenue will also reach 400 million."

"With the update of version 2.0 in January next year, I believe this number will continue to increase."

"The domestic media's enthusiasm for "Hunting Crisis" is not high, and there is not much exposure on the Internet. But surprisingly, the base of domestic players is increasing, and it is close to 30.00%."

"Of course, as the main battlefield, the situation of foreign servers is gratifying. Not only did foreign game media report extensively on matters related to "Hunter Crisis", but there was also a high degree of discussion among foreign players. Those famous video websites and live broadcasts The platform also denounced the videos and live broadcasts of "Hunter"."

"Therefore, I suggest that our next target of publicity is those big foreign anchors, and let them broadcast "Hunting Crisis" more to ensure the continuation of the popularity."

Pei Guangming talked eloquently and introduced the current situation of "Hunting Crisis" to everyone, and also put forward suggestions for publicity and distribution.

"Very good!" Chen Tiancai praised.

Then he said: "The work is going smoothly, and version 2.0 has been polished. It can be said that you will be very free next time."

"I have to pay you. Is it unreasonable not to keep you busy?" Chen Tiancai joked with a smile, which made the employees laugh too.

However, the employees had already heard the meaning of Chen Tiancai's words, and each of them held their breath and pricked up their ears to listen to Chen Tiancai's next words.

Chen Tiancai stood up, walked to Pei Guangming and asked him to sit down.

Then he took out his mobile phone, connected it to the projector, opened the PPT that he made hastily last night, pointed to the four large characters that appeared on the screen, and said loudly:
"I officially announce the approval of our new work, it's called "Legend Chang'an"!"

There was a bang.

In the conference room, it was as if boiling water had been poured out. The employees began to ask Chen Tiancai questions loudly, probably holding back for a long time.

"Boss, what are the specifications of the new game?"

"You're stupid! It must be of AAA specifications. The name looks like it has a historical theme. Boss, are we going to make a strategy game?"

"The subtitle of the strategy game will be the place name 'Chang'an'? It's not titled with the era, it must be an open world! Boss, tell me I'm right."

Chen Tiancai was relieved to see the heated discussion and questions in the conference room.

It seems that the old employees he recruited are all people with game dreams, but he caught a glimpse of Li Zhu and found that although the employee he liked very much had a look of excitement on his face, he opened his mouth for a long time and didn't say anything.

Pressing his palms to signal the employees to keep quiet, Chen Tiancai continued to introduce new projects.

"The establishment of the "Legend Chang'an" project represents the official launch of the Legend Project. This is the direction of the game that I have been thinking about for a long time. Combined with our traditional culture, it will tell players all over the world how brilliant and fascinating our history is."

When employees heard the words "Legend Project", they understood that this was a project that would determine the development direction of Anthem Network.

The height that Praise Network and themselves can reach in the future depends on the success of the Legend Project, so they continued to listen to Chen Tiancai's speech.

"As the first work, the development progress of "Legend Chang'an" will be very long, and we have to be prepared for a protracted battle. But now with the cash flow provided by "Hunting Crisis", you don't have to worry about money. "

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Tiancai didn't talk about Tengyi's capital injection, and planned to share the joy with the employees after the formal contract was finalized there.

""Legend of Chang'an" is an open world linear story game. The main stage is during the Tang Dynasty. I have been thinking a lot recently, and the combat system has almost been considered. As for other details that come to mind, I will write them down. The planning document will be sent to everyone.”

Chen Tiancai spread his hands, and continued: "Unfortunately, I only have a rough idea in my mind. "Legend Chang'an" still needs everyone's joint efforts to perfect it step by step."

clap clap clap...

There was applause in the conference room, and the faces of the employees of Anthem Network were full of longing.

After the meeting, Chen Tiancai called Li Zhu, Pei Guangming and Feng Bi as usual, and prepared to open and close the meeting.

Art requires specific work, and the general direction is to restore history as much as possible.

And this belongs to the scope of An Qinghuan's work. Chen Tiancai can communicate with her slowly when he has time, so he only called these programmers.

"Boss, I have some fans. What exactly do you mean by the open world linear story?" Pei Guangming asked first.

Chen Tiancai explained: "Just right, I will give you a task before explaining. Not only have you played "The Witcher 3" before, but you should play it carefully when you go back. This game is very helpful for us to develop "Legend Chang'an"."

Pei Guangming is an old fritter, patted his chest and said, "Of course I've played "The Witcher 3". You mean to make an open world like it?"

The open world of "The Witcher 3" is just like what Chen Tiancai said, the development of the world map is done in the main plot, and there is basically no large map of the traditional open world game.

The advantage of this is that players will not wander around and focus on the main and branch lines of the game, without having to design pipelined open world tasks.

After removing the integrated large map, not only can a lot of workload be reduced, but also art resources can be used wisely.

At the same time, on these open world maps connected by faces, many side tasks representing the core of the game have been thrown in, so as to enrich the sense of substitution that the game brings to players.

These are also the results of Chen Tiancai's thinking.

Chen Tiancai nodded and continued: "You have to play "The Witcher 3" carefully. The most important thing is to experience its side tasks and find out how it expresses the core of the game."

"Mr. Chen, this may be a little difficult for me, because I don't have a host." Li Zhu blushed and raised his hands, like a student.

Feng Bi immediately said: "It's easy, I just bought the NS version of "The Witcher 3", and I plan to play it on and off work. Tomorrow I will bring you the old version of Ps3 that I don't use at home, and there is a digital version of "The Witcher 3" that I bought. The Witcher [-]."

"Feng Li, thank you very much." Li Zhu seemed relieved.

"Well, besides experiencing "The Witcher 3", the three of you should carefully look at the combat system I designed and think about interesting skills." Chen Tiancai didn't ask Li Zhu why he couldn't buy a game console worth 2000 yuan. He winked at Feng Yu and asked him to come to the office later and ask about Li Zhu's situation carefully.

In fact, in most cases, Chen Tiancai has already guessed the reason. Although Li Zhu's family conditions are not good, he pays Li Zhu a lot of salary a month, so he won't be unable to pay even 2000 yuan.

And this month, the bonus of "Hunting Crisis" will be distributed. Li Zhu estimates that he can get more than [-] yuan.

As Li Zhu is an employee to focus on training, Chen Tiancai naturally hopes that he can live a better life in Beijing, so that he can devote 100% attention to the development of the game.
