Game company goes bankrupt? I backhand cyberpunk!

At ten o'clock in the morning, Lin Yuan took a taxi to the company. When he arrived at the door of the company, the first thing he saw was the busy Nanxing employees.

Li Lin was sitting in his seat, typing away at the code, and the art director Xu Xiao was also painting scenes from Sword and Fairy 4 in his seat.

But it was such a busy group of people. After hearing the beep sound of the company door, first the guy closest to the door called out the leader, and then everyone turned their attention at the same time.

Lin Yuan raised his hand, feeling a little strange, but he still greeted everyone first: Good morning, but what are you looking at me for?

Xiao Pan, who was closest, immediately shook his head, but his eyes were still on Lin Yuan.

What are you doing? Is there something on my face? Lin Yuan reached out and touched his face, feeling strange about the sight of these guys.

These guys, it’s just been a weekend. Why, don’t they recognize me?

After Lin Yuan entered Feng Shuyun's office with doubts, a group of people in the office area immediately started talking.

Is that really a song written by Director Lin himself? I listened to it in Kuku on Saturdays and Sundays!

It must have been written by Chief Lin. Didn't you see that the composer, composer and lyrics were written by Nan Xing?

Hey, what is the relationship between Boss Feng and Director Lin?

It's definitely not just a boss-employee relationship!

What the hell are you talking about? It's a simple superior-subordinate relationship. Will you bring meals to employees and drive them home after get off work? It must be something more than a simple relationship, hehehe.

A group of people were talking about it.

There is no other reason than the keywords are popular. As employees of Nanxing, when the theme song of the Full Moon Night was released, they naturally wanted to listen to it. When they heard it, they were immediately shocked. How could it be so good? ah!

What does Lin Yuan's chief planner do?

How can you be so good at making games and then make music?

And because of the traffic of keywords, Nanxing has really broken out of the industry this time, moving directly from the gaming industry to the music industry.

Chief Lin is really amazing. He is so good at writing code, and then he can even write songs. The songs he writes can even be sung by big singers like Lin Jie! said an employee in the programmer team in admiration.

Indeed, Team Leader Li Lin is already very powerful. He is a high school student who graduated from Shuimu. However, there was a slight mistake in the code I typed last time. Team Leader Li Lin failed to spot it and the result was sent to Chief Lin. Ce can tell at a glance!

The people from the art team also came closer, heard the sound and said:

I would say the most powerful thing about the chief designer is his painting skills. His painting skills are no different from those of our teachers at the Academy of Fine Arts. The Han Lingsha he painted is really amazing. His ink painting style makes him cute, cute and smart. moving!

Liu Mengli is the best, okay? If Mengli, the main planner, wasn't afraid of leaking secrets, I would have sent it directly to Moments to show to my classmates. They even laughed at me before, thinking that there was no future for me as an artist. , No, as for our chief designer Meng Li, can they draw it if they have another ten years of study?

The team members began to encourage.

Until Li Lin appeared, coughed in displeasure, and then said loudly: What are you doing? It's working time now!

This group of guys dispersed and each returned to their posts.

Lin Yuan, who was in the office, naturally didn't know what was happening outside.

At this moment, he was enjoying breakfast with Boss Feng.

During this time, Feng Shuyun also discovered that the employees looked at him and Lin Yuan abnormally.

Since he only bought breakfast for Lin Yuan and not for them, they would naturally find it strange.

So Boss Feng thought of a way, which was to let Lin Yuan come to his office to have breakfast. That would be enough, and there would be no pressure on the line of sight!

In fact, it's not that Feng Shuyun is not generous, but that she really can't bring breakfast for so many people. You must know that she has a snack area in the company. Potato chips, bread, happy water and other things are provided to employees for free.

Feng Shuyun is really never stingy when it comes to spending money!

And if Lin Yuan knew that Feng Shuyun thought this way about what he had done during this period and the eyes of his subordinates, then Lin Yuan would probably have doubts about Feng Shuyun's IQ again.

Wait, maybe this isn’t an IQ thing at all?

The two of them were eating mutton noodles. Feng Shuyun added a lot of spicy food to Lin Yuan's noodles. When Lin Yuan ate the battered chili shells, it was actually a seasoning that added flavor, but Feng Shuyun was so spicy. of.

She stuck out her little tongue like a deer, her face was red, her temples were moist, and she drank half the bottle of mineral water on the table.

I really don’t know why she added chili pepper. Since I can’t eat spicy food, wouldn’t it be better if I didn’t add any spicy food?

Hey, Lin Yuan, let me tell you something. The two of us may be going on a business trip in a while.

Business trip? Lin Yuan put down his chopsticks and looked at Feng Shuyun who put his hands in front of him to fan himself.

Yes, before you came to the company, Tianyou just sent us an invitation letter, inviting us to participate in the Autumn Game Show held by Tianyou on September 10th. Our game was nominated for the summer game, and both games were nominated!

Feng Shuyunsi said harshly.

I don't know whether it was because of the pain or excitement on his face, but his almond-shaped eyes were reddish and moist. He looked at Lin Yuan and said, I thought about it, you have to go with me.

The Four of Swordsmen are still here. When Lin Yuan heard that he was going on a business trip, he immediately wanted to refuse.

I'm only going for two days. It'll be fine! Just let Li Lin manage the company. I'll talk to him later. Feng Shuyun immediately opened his mouth and blocked Lin Yuan's mouth.

This is the first time that Feng Shuyun has been invited by Tianyou to participate in an exhibition as a developer. Naturally, Feng Shuyun is very excited.

But despite being excited, this girl is also a little shy. If she goes alone, what will she do if she wins the award and speaks on stage?

Speaking or something, that must be left to Lin Yuan!

As for whether he can win an award, Feng Shuyun said that he will definitely win an award on a full moon night!

The best art award in the summer should be, no, definitely for the night of the full moon!

Please, please, please! Feng Shuyun clasped his hands together, lowered his head and made a girl's prayer to Lin Yuan. His almond-shaped eyes were moist and translucent, looking at Lin Yuan pitifully like a deer.

Lin Yuan closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose.

This guy also said he doesn't know how to act coquettishly

Isn't this just being coquettish, you bastard? !

Even with his eyes closed, Lin Yuan could feel the aura emanating from Feng Shuyun, sweeping towards him like waves.

What a piercing gaze, my family!

This made Lin Yuan's attributes begin to change at this moment, well, resistance -10, sanity -10, excitement +20, and satisfaction +30.

Don't tell me, I'm being coquettishly spoiled by my beautiful boss, please ask me for help or something like that.

It’s really cool.

After a while, Lin Yuan opened his eyes and said, Okay, I'll only go for two days, right? I agree. So boss, where is the venue?

Okay! Feng Shuyun made a V and continued with a smile: The location is at the Convention and Exhibition Center in Pengcheng. If we fly there, it will take about three hours. I have already checked the map. The hotel is very close to the convention and exhibition center after we get off the plane. Are we a little anxious to book a hotel now?

Hey~ I'll answer Tianyou first and tell them we will go there then.

Feng Shuyun stood up, picked up his cell phone and started sending messages.

After Lin Yuan thought for a while, he said, By the way, boss, please ask the people at Tianyou if we win the award by then, if we can mention our new game when we speak.

Yes! This is a good opportunity to announce something! Feng Shuyun nodded, then lowered his head and looked at the phone.

Seeing Boss Feng's actions, Lin Yuan laughed and shook his head.

How can this be a boss?

Isn't this just a little mascot?

But, gaming expo?

This is really the first time for Lin Yuan to participate, and he is participating as a game producer.

I don’t know what interesting things will happen then.

——————

Pengcheng is where Tianyou's headquarters is located. In the science and technology park, there is a building that is unique to Tianyou.

At this moment, in the spacious and bright conference room on the third floor of Tianyou, department director Zuo Xuanzheng looked at the group leaders below with a serious look on his face, and said seriously:

We at Tianyou have always been able to achieve such success because of integrity. We uphold the concept of being the hands and mouths of the players, passing on what they choose and want to say, with players as the core, which is our Primary purpose.”

Then everyone, now we will announce the winners list for the 21st issue of domestic game summer. There are thirteen awards for Tianyou's best summer game this time. The first is, the best-selling online game award in summer - Nominated by Damengxian, Gods and Demons 2, Iron Cavalry War Song.

After Zuo Xuan finished speaking, he looked at them quietly.

The eighteen team leaders sitting below also began to discuss. Everyone took out the data they had collected. They began to argue with each other, using the data and player support rates as the basis, and then based on personal preferences. Take a vote.

Finally, beside Zuo Xuan, the secretary wrote down the voting results of this round.

Then, Zuo Xuan read about the second award: The best-selling mobile game award in the summer. The list is as follows: Battlefield Elite, Dahe Tianxia, ​​and Mengduoduo World.

The discussion and round of voting are over again.

Zuo Xuan read out several awards in sequence. Then, when he was about to read out the new game nominations, he paused for a moment, then pushed up his glasses and said, Next is the single-player category game.

Summer Best-Selling Game Award - Nominations include: Digging for the Highlights, Night of the Full Moon, Fantasy Castle, and many more cute games.

A discussion began below. After a long time, the discussion ended. Eighteen people voted, and the secretary recorded the results.

On her booklet, it was noted that - the winner of the Best Selling Game of the Summer Award - Digging Up.

The game ranks among the best with monthly sales of 180,000 copies!

The current total sales volume is 300,000. Although except for the first month, the sales volume in the other three months is not very good, but the overall sales volume is still ranked at the forefront of stand-alone games. Therefore, Digging Up has become the best-selling game in the summer. There is no problem.

Best Narrative of the Summer, nominated for Night of the Full Moon, My War Story, and The Song of Life.

Please vote.

Zuo Xuan pushed up his glasses, and after finishing speaking, he turned his gaze to the full moon night.

This summer full moon night is really famous.

Then, the secretary recorded the results.

Zuo Xuan read out a new round of lists again——

Best Art Award for Summer Games. Nominations include: Full Moon Night, Dream Castle, and Dream Story.

Summer Players' Voice Award, the nominations are: Full Moon Night, Song of Life, lots of cuteness.

The best creative game of the summer, nominations include Full Moon Night, Fantasy Story, and Dragon Egg Bouncing.

Finally, after three hours of discussion and voting, Tianyou Summer’s Thirteen Project Awards were determined, and then, after another round of screening surveys, the winners were officially determined.

Tianyou will hold two awards a year, namely the Summer Award in the first half of the year and the Annual Award in the second half of the year. The latter will have more awards and be more meaningful, but it does not mean that the Summer Award is unimportant. .

The first is that the winning works in the summer will receive Tianyou's January promotion resources for free publicity and distribution, and the second is the honorary awards with trophies and certificates.

Therefore, the summer award is also very important.

After the meeting, Zuo Xuan sat alone in the conference room and rubbed his temples with his hands.

But just when Zuo Xuan was rubbing his temples to rest, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in a suit rushed in. After entering, he said: Old Zuo, the person in charge of Nanxing has spoken. , how about it, am I a friend enough? I will give you the answer, Director Zuo~

Lao Luo, please stop being so pretentious. What did Boss Feng say?

Zuo Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the other party. He was the person responsible for arranging Tianyou's game list and promoting resources. At this moment, the other party shrugged and said: The other party agreed to come to our game exhibition, but she also mentioned a small Require.

any request?

She asked us if we could mention the new game that Nanxing will develop when giving a speech when we win the award. Lao Luo said, and he laughed after saying this: She was so sure about Nanxing when she asked this question. Will any of the works win awards?”

Although domestic game companies have all developed mobile games in recent years, and single-player games have become somewhat unpopular, it is still difficult for a small company like her to win awards, right? No, it should be able to win the bestseller award if it digs deep for promotion. ? I remember that when I left, I sold more than 100,000 copies of Dig Di Qiu Sheng, right?

Difficulty? Zuo Xuan glanced at Lao Luo speechlessly, but seeing the other person's tired appearance, he immediately understood and said as if he thought of something: Did you just come back from participating in Rondo's game exhibition?

Yes, I just got off the plane in the morning, and then the team members in my department told me these things. Lao Luo replied.

See for yourself. Zuo Xuan pushed the paper away from the table and shook his head helplessly.

And Lao Luo stepped forward and looked at the paper.

On it were thirteen winning games recorded by the secretary.

After reading it, Lao Luo's expression became speechless.

Here I go, nominated for five awards? Winning four awards? Is it true or false?

It's true. A lot of things have happened in China during this period. You can search it online. Zuo Xuan stood up and reached out to pat Lao Luo on the shoulder.

Lao Luo nodded, put aside his contempt for Nan Xing, and instead picked up the paper and read it seriously.

After a while, he said: I understand. I will quickly absorb what happened online during this period when I return to the department.

As the manager of the publicity department, Luo Feng is well aware of the importance of information.

Therefore, he was going to make up for what happened when he left the country recently.

Zuo Xuan also nodded, and sighed again after a moment.

In fact, normally speaking, it is very good for a game company to win two awards. It is basically impossible for a single game to win multiple awards, because the organizer must try to be evenly distributed, not to mention that the selling point of a game cannot be It's all-powerful, but it can't withstand the current slump in the domestic stand-alone game industry.

Although Tianyou has been working hard to promote stand-alone games and provide more interfaces, domestic manufacturers still prefer to make online games and mobile games. After all, the profits of the latter are considerable in the long run, while the income of stand-alone games is very unstable. Not to mention the long development process, whether it can be sold is also a question.

Unlike mobile games, the mobile games on the market now, as long as the art is good, can trick many players into earning money. The game template is the same as drawing cards and opening treasure chests, just like a matryoshka doll.

Tianyou is a game platform that adheres to the player concept. All awards are based on the player's choice.

The current sales volume of Night of the Full Moon is 260,000, and the support rate has reached an astonishing 98, far exceeding the second place by 11 points. What does this mean?

This means what everyone expects!

Therefore, even if this award is announced, it will be given to other platforms. Tianyou seems to be lonely. There are no good stand-alone games anymore. Unlike before when a hundred flowers bloomed, now one game can win several project awards on Tianyou!

However, Tianyou could only bite the bullet and do this.

Because this is Tianyou.

Players are their gods.

Even if the professionals think the game has shortcomings, as long as the players find it fun and interesting, that is the most important thing.

So.

There should be quite a stir in the gaming circle when the Summer Awards are announced this time, right?

It's strange. Nanxing used to be an unknown game company that made junk web games, but it turned around in one summer. What kind of grassroots counterattack story is this?

Zuo Xuan thought with some dumbfounding.
