Game company goes bankrupt? I backhand cyberpunk!

On New Year's Eve, at night, it was past seven o'clock in the evening.

Except for the sixth and seventh floors of the entire science and technology building, there are only a few scattered lights on the other floors, but the sixth and seventh floors are different, and they are so conspicuous in the dark night and light snow.

At this moment, as New Year's Eve approaches, there is a lot of heat inside Nanxing. This heat has two meanings. One is that the entire Nanxing is extremely busy right now, and the other is that Nanxing is indeed on fire right now.

The Legend of Sword and Fairy is going to be a waste for players. The reason is that there are some minor problems with the commercial engine. In the game, there is always a large shadow in the decryption of a level in the crypt, and also when going up Buzhou Mountain. There will also be lags, sudden frame drops, etc., and this has caused the Legend of Sword and Fairy, which was originally planned to be released years ago, to enter the revision stage.

During this period of time, Nanxing's official blog has been bombarded by netizens. Feng Shuyun's latest Weibo post about Legend of Sword and Fairy, thanking the voice actors for their performance, has been bombarded by nearly 10,000 pages.

The reason is because Legend of Sword and Fairy started pretending to be dead.

Why hasn't it been released yet? I've got all my damn new year's money ready!

Are you going to coo? Damn it, I'm just waiting to have fun during the Chinese New Year!

It's over, it's over. I'm an insider. The boss and the chief planner have run away. The game is ruined!

Tiantian sent beautiful pictures of Mengli and Lingsha to seduce us, but where is the game? Where is my wife?

Here? Why didn't Mengli's jade feet get sent out this week?

Look at the jailer!

Comments like this are full of Nanxing’s official blog.

The same is true for Lin Yuan's Weibo account. Those who were exposed knew that these people were here to promote the game, while those who didn't know thought that the blogger was exposed online!

During this period of time, Lin Yuan was the busiest person. He only slept about five hours a day. He was busy from morning to night. When he got home from get off work after one o'clock in the evening, Feng Shuyun drove him back.

Let's put it this way, Lin Yuan went back and took a shower tiredly. After washing, when he touched his hair, a lot of it fell out!

In the past, he thought that saying that a programmer was bald was just a joke, but now Lin Yuan knew that it was really not a joke!

It’s true that hair falls out!

Throughout Nanxing, except for a small number of employees who had to go home due to family matters, most employees stayed in the company to tide over the difficulties with Lin Yuan and Feng Shuyun.

According to the artist, only three were kept, and the rest were sent back for the New Year. The funny thing is that these newly graduated college students showed a reluctance to go home for the New Year. They really didn’t want to go back. ah!

Woohoo, four times the salary! During the Spring Festival, the salary is quadrupled. After working for ten days, you can get less than half a month's salary. In addition, everyone lives together on the sixth floor and eats, drinks and lodgings together. It feels like team building.

It feels like there is a power outage in a university dormitory and everyone goes to the cafeteria and gym to sleep and just join in the fun?

For creatures like college students who like to join in the fun, of course they also want to join, but what they want to do next does not require the help of artists, so they can only go back.

What remained was a group of programmers headed by Li Lin, and about a dozen newcomers who had just joined the company and worked overtime.

Fortunately, working during the Spring Festival is not a problem for these young people in Nanxing. They are all young people and can endure hardships. In addition, they are given four times the salary, so everyone is happy to stay.

And what's even more amazing is.

The boss and chief planner are more able to endure hardships than they are!

In addition to salary, is there anything that is easier to motivate employees than the boss and the chief planner to do their best and set an example?

Really no more.

Therefore, the current sixth floor of the building is an entire floor of the office building rented by Feng Shuyun. Because the employees have not yet been recruited, the sixth floor is now used as a temporary canteen. The end of the year is approaching, and every household has left in a hurry to celebrate the New Year. , because there was no takeout nearby, and there was no storefront to eat out. Feng Shuyun simply took his employees to the supermarket, bought the ingredients on the 18th and stored them in the refrigerator. Yes, everyone cooked and ate by themselves!

At this moment, Feng Shuyun was wearing an apron and a sanitary mask, with her hair tied up, exposing her white neck, and she was busy in front of the induction cooker.

Fried rice is ready. Fried rice is ready!

Li Lin walked up to Feng Shuyun with the plate and handed it out. His face was full of haggard, but he still said gratefully to Feng Shuyun who served him the meal: Thank you, boss.

Where's mine? Lin Yuan asked from behind Li Lin, looking at Feng Shuyun, who also had the characteristics of a national treasure, with thick dark circles under his eyes.

It's all there. I've made a big pot of it. As for the taste.

The taste is not important, as long as it can fill your stomach! Lin Yuan said.

Who cares about taste now?

Feng Shuyun nodded, then took Lin Yuan's bowl and served him a bowl of fried rice full of beef cubes.

Afterwards, the three of them found a seat, lowered their heads and started to cook.

Lin Ce, looking at it now, there is indeed a problem with the use of the engine. If we want to change it, there are many things we need to change. I also specifically asked the professor at my university, and the other party said that this is not a problem with our operation. It's just an engine problem and a graphics problem. Li Lin yawned and said.

Lin Yuan looked at Li Lin. In fact, in terms of professional knowledge, Li Lin knew more than Lin Yuan, and the professor Li Lin was talking about must be the top expert in the country.

Such an academic expert can take the time to help, which shows that the other party attaches great importance to Li Lin.

At this moment, the third leader of Nanxing nodded and continued sleepily: If we want to improve the exploration gameplay of the maze map, we need to make a special engine to serve the fairy sword. The commercial engine is fully usable, but for Our gameplay didn't help much, so Lince, we have a big problem now.

Tell me about it.

If you want to keep the original picture and gameplay, the repair time will take about half a month. If you delete that place, it will lower the picture quality in the crypt, and then remove the decryption gameplay. The same is true for Buzhou Mountain, which will reduce the picture quality. It can be solved. Between the two situations, which one should we choose?

Half a month. Feng Shuyun took the spoon out of his mouth, looked at Lin Yuan and whined, Lin Yuan, let alone half a month, we won't be able to bear it the day after tomorrow!

Some people came to the company in the past two days and asked us why the game was not ready. If it takes another half a month, they will definitely explode!

. Lin Yuan was silent and scratched the back of his head with a headache.

If you choose the second option, wouldn’t all the efforts and employees’ efforts during this period be in vain?

Another thing is that Lin Yuan himself is not willing to lower the graphics of the game.

Although there are only two places, even so, Lin Yuan is not willing, because so far, Lin Yuan has made it as a perfect work. At the beginning, Lin Yuan only harvested rice to make money, but in the face of Facing the expectations of more and more players, the eyes of bloggers, and fans in the gaming circle, Lin Yuan's thoughts also changed.

Fairy sword must be done well,

We need to let domestic stand-alone game studios know that domestic players are still willing to pay for domestic games!

Lin Yuan remembers that when the trailer of Black Myth came out, all domestic players were excited because it was the first 3A game made by Chinese people with a Chinese background story. Black Myth is not just a domestic game. The producer’s dream is also the dream of domestic players.

Domestic players have been looking forward to a 3A for too long.

The emergence of Black Myth has proven that in China, it is possible to make a lot of good games with a lot of money, a lot of manpower, and a lot of production.

The A of 3A is not the A of American certification!

Of course, Legend of Sword and Fairy has not yet become that big, but as the only large-scale stand-alone Xianxia game, it also carries the dreams of many game producers. There is no shortage of good ideas in the country, but only the market and the courage to do so. People of action.

Therefore, the current rating of Legend of Sword and Fairy on Tianyou is 9.9. While the praise rate is full, there are also many supportive comments below.

Therefore, this flaw, which may seem inconsequential to others, even peers, is something that Lin Yuan will not allow.

Therefore, Lin Yuan looked at Li Lin and said in a deep voice: Continue to revise and speed up. You don't need to worry about the rest.

Li Lin smiled and nodded: I understand.

Yes, Li Lin is not willing to let Legend of Sword and Fairy have flaws.

This is the first South Star game he's worked on as a lead staff member, and he doesn't want there to be any taint.

Provoke it! Then just get scolded! What a big deal! Scold me, I will pretend to be dead anyway! Feng Shuyun suddenly raised his arms and shouted.

She supports all Lin Yuan's choices!

Since Lin Yuan said he would continue to do it, then let’s continue to do it!

She doesn't care if the players are disgusted by them, call them pigeons, etc.!

Lin Yuan looked at Boss Feng and was amused by Feng Shuyun's behavior of raising his arms and howling.

This living treasure

Boss, I'll go to your office later and take a video for me with your phone. Lin Yuan said to Feng Shuyun.

Take a video? What video? Feng Shuyun, Yigan Yuntian, asked loudly.

Apology video.

Oh, I'm going to apologize to the players? Feng Shuyun pointed at himself, Can I finally play my role?

It's me. Lin Yuan said.

Ah? Feng Shuyun was a little confused.

Why is it her turn to apologize?

Woohoo, can I really just be a mascot?

——————

At nine o'clock in the evening, Zhou Xiao watched the live broadcast. As a college dog, Zhou Xiao enjoyed the love and care from his old mother in the first few days after returning home for vacation. However, after four days, he became disgusted with dogs. , the old mother changed from being affectionate and kissing him at the beginning to making a bad face when she saw him.

In this regard, Zhou Xiao can only say that maternal love is fickle!

At this moment, Zhou Xiao, who was watching Sister 66 play at the animal party, was also having fun with everyone.

Watching the Queen of Zhou play with her younger brother, Prince Zhuang, the effect of this live broadcast is extremely enjoyable.

But as he watched, a colorful barrage floated past.

[Shit, Legend of Sword and Fairy has been delayed. Lin Yuan said the game can’t be produced! 】

Zhou Xiao was stunned when he saw the barrage.

He likes Nan Xing's games very much. No one played with him at Animal Party, so Zhou Xiao bought one, but he never played it. But at Full Moon Night, Zhou Xiao especially liked it, and Legend of Sword and Fairy, even more It was a game that Zhou Xiao had been looking forward to all autumn.

Zhou Xiao has been looking forward to it since the trailer for Sword and Fairy, when Lin Yuan and Nanxing boss Feng Shuyun received the award at Tianyou.

Xianxia stand-alone game. As a Chinese, how could Zhou Xiao not love the word Xianxia?

He likes to play games very much. He has played many stand-alone games from abroad. However, when playing those themes, it is always difficult for Zhou Xiao to feel immersed in them. That is, the games are very fun, but the backgrounds are all Western fantasy and all belong to foreigners. That set made Zhou Xiao feel like an outsider.

But Immortal Sword is different. Just hearing the name, Zhou Xiao wants to give it a nine.

Legend of Sword and Fairy!

And now, the barrage says that The Legend of Sword and Fairy is going to be delayed?

No!

Zhou Xiao suddenly sat up from the bed, then picked up his mobile phone to log in to Weibo.

After finding Nanxing's official blog, Zhou Xiao saw a Weibo post that Nanxing had just posted five minutes ago. It already had hundreds of comments.

The word Nan Xing is paired with is——Here, Nan Xingniang is very sorry to inform everyone of something.

And below, is a video.

Zhou Xiao opened the video, and the next moment, a voice came from inside.

Ok?

OK, recording is already underway.

Okay, wait, boss, what are you doing to my face and my feet?

oh oh.

The picture moved from a pair of casual shoes and trousers to a pale, delicate face with messy hair and heavy dark circles under the eyes.

It’s Planning Lin from Nanxing!

Good evening everyone, I am Lin Yuan, the chief planner of Nanxing.

In the camera, Lin Ce stood upright, looking at the camera with calm eyes.

I'm sorry to inform you that the release of Legend of Sword and Fairy is going to be postponed. During this period, we have released production content and updated information about Legend of Sword and Fairy every day, which has occupied a lot of public channels. , everyone has been paying attention to us, but now, we are unable to hand over the game as scheduled, which is my fault.

I know that the release of this video will disappoint many players who have been waiting for us for a long time. Lin Yuan paused, took a deep breath, and looked at the camera, with a tired face and bright eyes. Guang appeared: The next words are what I personally want to express, as well as the attitude of Nanxing Games towards the players.

Everyone, Nanxing is a game company that focuses on players. The main purpose of the games we make is not to sell well, but to allow players to play happily. The current situation of Legend of Sword and Fairy is , due to some technical problems, defects appeared. I, and everyone at Nanxing, could not tolerate handing over a defective work, so we chose to postpone the release.

Nowadays, there are many game companies on the market that sell semi-finished products, which are called service-based games, and improve the games through subsequent updates. I will not comment on this behavior. I can only say that Nanxing will never do it. As a person who likes to play games, what I hate more than the disappointment I have been waiting for for a long time is that what I have been waiting for is a piece of shit.

The phone suddenly started to shake, and then there was the sound of a woman breathing heavily.

I firmly believe that late good games can win the hearts of players more than early bad games. No one will remember those garbage games that were released on time.

So, please wait a little longer, we will deliver the Legend of Sword and Fairy to you as soon as possible.

In the picture, Lin Ce bent down and bowed, saying, Thank you.

When the video ended, Zhou Xiao looked at his phone in a daze.

A good work that comes late can win the hearts of players far more than a bad product that was scheduled to be released.

Gosh

Lin Ce said something wise again!

Zhou Xiao, who was still a little resentful, suddenly felt that waiting a little longer would actually be okay.

yes

No one remembers bad games that were released on time.

So, I'll wait a little longer.

Zhou Xiao thought so.

This chapter is 4000 words.

Everyone, the next plot will involve some movies and TV shows.

It’s about the film and TV adaptation rights of Fairy Sword. I’m thinking whether to write about it in more detail or speed up the process a few steps.

The game is the main theme of this book, and if it’s a side job, then...

Games are truly all industries integrated into one, so you know.
