Cannon Fodder Genius Game Producer

On the Internet, since Pei Shu's "Budou Studio" was officially announced, some diehard fans of Budou teacher began to pay attention to this studio and the studio's first game project.

But this part is a small number of players after all, the vast majority of players just had a "hahaha" after knowing this, and thought it was very funny that the group of inexplicable sunspot sailors overturned on the body of the teacher. .

After laughing, there is probably an impression in the minds of some melon-eating players——Teacher Buba opened a studio, and the members in it include Wang Fei, the former project manager of "Super God" and the previous true and false producer incident. Jiang Ziye, the protagonist in the novel.

Besides, most players don't pay attention to what Pei Shu's studio does.

In the Bulo studio, after Pei Shu, Wang Fei, and Jiang Ziye gathered for the first day of discussions, the preparations for the studio quickly spread out.

On the same day, Pei Shu and Jiang Ziye first finalized the setting direction of several player characters. Wang Fei contacted the art team he was familiar with and began to trial-produce the art style of the game tentatively named "Code Name Xianyuan".

After Pei Shu and Jiang Ziye mentioned the key points of the game, Jiang Ziye started to build the worldview framework of the game, and he started to build the main system framework. According to Pei Shu's several gameplay requirements and combat methods, Wang Fei An outsourcing program contacted has also begun to lay the bottom layer of the game and design various editors specially made for the follow-up performance and task requirements of "Code Name Xianyuan" according to their needs.

Although their "Codename Xianyuan" is just a "casual, easy and not chasing krypton gold" game in Pei Shu's words, or for other game manufacturers, the total investment is only Such a small game of 50 yuan is really not worth the effort.

However, Pei Shu still asked Jiang Ziye not to cut corners in the construction of the world view framework.

If the frame design of the game system represents a purely mechanical skeleton of the game, then the world view represents what kind of flesh and blood can be covered on this mechanical skeleton—will there be an Eastern dragon or a Western dragon in this world?Is the existence of this world based on magical elements or aura?This world runs through tens of thousands of years, but which era is the game currently in?

After the world view framework is established, various settings of the game will be laid on the basis of the current world view, such as different levels of map area naming design, art style of different areas, monster design, NPC design, etc.

The plot line of the player's character will also start to be laid within the framework of the worldview setting. In the future, it will also involve the plot of the player in different game areas and so on.

Nowadays, all major companies are getting more and more involved in all aspects of Xinyou, especially the plot. Maybe they feel that the imagination of the plot can be more unrestrained than the expressiveness of the game. Can't wait to take off in place.

Your world view Xiuxian + steampunk?My world view: Apocalyptic Wasteland + Infinite Reincarnation... There are also some games from the early years, perhaps MOBA and other types of games that do not pay much attention to the world view. In the past two years, they have also regrouped and invited many well-known authors to serve as the world view architects of the game. , preparing to rationalize and reconstruct the original fragmented content of the horizon through novels.

In short, attaching importance to the world view is now a major trend, and Pei Shu, Jiang Ziye, and Wang Fei in the studio are all people who understand the importance of setting the world view, so the burden on Jiang Ziye is naturally very heavy.

Simply put, Jiang Ziye is indeed a young man full of enthusiasm for games, and he was originally good at cultural expression such as worldview.

So after receiving the task, I immersed myself in the setting of the world view framework.

Jiang Ziye was responsible for the world view, while Pei Shu began to design the overall system and gameplay of "Code Name Xianyuan".

For Pei Shu, this task is actually quite difficult. After all, from the last time he made a game to this time, he has been in a daze for 8 years. It can be said that there is a huge gap between the current game environment and mainstream design. time gap.

Although he has been trying to experience the hottest types of games ever since he woke up, but it’s all about playing – being able to understand a game system doesn’t mean that you can understand a game system design.

The content covered by the gameplay design of the game system is very intricate, and there may be huge possibilities around the core gameplay of the game. Considering the cost, the complexity of the game, and the tolerance of players to the complexity of the game, at least the game In the initial launch stage, what kind of system gameplay should be open to attract players' attention, what kind of gameplay can form a perfect cycle, which gameplay is outdated and out of date, and which gameplay is hot...

The complexity involved is also a huge challenge for Pei Shu.

Because of this, from the first day when the game was officially started, Pei Shu began to stay up all night in the studio.

In order to make it easier to stay up late, Pei Shu bought sleeping bags and camp beds for the only three members currently in the studio, and arranged them properly for Jiang Ziye and Wang Fei.

Wang Fei: ...

To be honest, as a project manager, he didn’t really need such a thing as a camp bed when the worldview framework and system framework design hadn’t been completed yet.

As an existence that is almost project coordinator, Wang Fei's more work is to communicate with the outsourcing team and follow up the progress. In addition, he is to urge the progress of Pei Shu and Jiang Ziye. Suggestions are provided.

"Ah, sure enough." Pei Shu had a kind smile on his face: "An old man is like a treasure in a family. It's really great to have Lao Wang here!"

Wang Fei just made some suggestions for modifying his system gameplay. He thought it was very reasonable, and immediately changed it on the computer file.

Hearing Pei Shu's words, Wang Fei rolled his eyes expressionlessly.

During this period of time, he has seen through it. Pei Shu looks gentle and amiable, but in fact he has a bad stomach-probably a revenge against the honest and chaotic personality during the previous 8 years of amnesia. Now Wang Fei looks at Pei Shu, I just feel that this guy has gone straight from a silly roe deer to an old fox with at least nine tails(?).

... And the words are getting less and less.

For example, this 'family has an old man'.

Wang Fei glanced at Pei Shu: "You say I'm old?"

Pei Shu immediately smiled obediently and shook his head: "No, I said, Lao Wang, you are a treasure in the studio!"

On the side, Jiang Ziye, who would have been terrified when seeing Pei Shu and Wang Fei fighting each other half a month ago, is now able to quietly eat melons in the golden position next to him in the blink of an eye.

However, the melon hadn’t been eaten for too long, and the studio’s door guard rang. After greeting, the food delivery staff who was already familiar with delivered 3 exquisite afternoon teas to the Bulo studio, and then turned around to say goodbye and leave.

Wang Fei and Jiang Ziye looked at the time, and it was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

During this period of time, Wang Fei and Jiang Ziye were also surprised to find that the studio still provided afternoon tea desserts at the beginning, and then they got used to the various snacks sent by the "investors" every day.

"The people in Huanyu probably don't think that the treatment of afternoon tea in our small studio of three people is better than that of Jixing." Wang Fei smiled and took one of the labeled iced Americano, and took a small cake.

Pei Shu smiled: "It's the investors' credit."

While speaking, Pei Shu had seen Li Chuyue's profile picture pop up on his WeChat.

Li Chuyue: 【^^ Do you like Pei Pei's afternoon tea today? 】

Pei Shu sighed softly, and typed: [... Li Chuyue, there is no need to deliver afternoon tea to the studio every day, and my studio is just an investment project of yours. 】

Li Chuyue: [^^ Nonsense, Pei Pei's studio is of course my most important investment project, how could it be one of them? 】

Pei Shu: […]

Li Chuyue: [^^ Is Pei Pei very busy today?Then I will have dinner with you in the studio at night? 】

Pei Shu: [...No need. 】

Li Chuyue: [^^ Peipei's studio is my most important project. Of course, I can't watch the founder of the studio have irregular meals and stay up late, so it's agreed, I will come to the studio to eat with you at night ! 】

After finishing speaking, Li Chuyue 'disappeared' before Pei Shu refused again.

Looking at the chat records in front of him, Pei Shu rubbed his head with some headaches.

Ever since he realized that Li Chuyue probably liked him, he began to try to alienate him, trying to make Li Chuyue calm down, but he hadn't succeeded before.

He thought that after the studio started to operate, he could gradually increase the distance between him and Li Chuyue by using the excuse that the studio was busy, but he found that Li Chuyue was still surrounding him everywhere.

This studio is funded and invested by Li Chuyue, and the office location of the studio is provided by Li Chuyue. The studio even has regular afternoon tea funded by Li Chuyue every day, and occasionally lunch and dinner.

Although during this period of time he did stagger the meeting with Li Chuyue on the grounds of being "busy at work", or sleeping temporarily in the studio, or returning to the apartment on Daonan Road late at night, Li Chuyue was still using all kinds of A reminder of his own existence in ways that are neither obvious nor urgent.

This kind of reminder has a hint of toughness in its gentleness.

Pei Shu really doesn't have much experience in dealing with such situations. Although he is 7 years older than Li Chuyue, he was controlled by the will of the plot for 8 years in the middle. He is 8 years old and has some chaotic memories, but in terms of mental age, he is actually not much better than Jiang Ziye today.

fall in love?

When he was young, how could he have thought of falling in love?

He devotes all his attention to the game, playing games, evaluating games, evaluating hardware and making games-if he doesn't spend all his time on these, how can he come up with 500 hours of GM3 generation "Flying Thieves" "Cumulative time?

After all, even if he plays 5 hours a day, it will take him a full 100 days.

What's more, he has played more than one game, "Flying Thief".

In short.

Faced with Li Chuyue's liking, Pei Shu, who seemed calm, was actually panicked and didn't know how to deal with it. He was a pure-blooded single dog who couldn't be more pure.

Seeing that Pei Shu was still in front of his computer, Wang Fei delivered the last afternoon tea with Pei Shu's label to his desk.

"Eat and do it again, it's not a few minutes away."

"Oh." Pei Shu sighed melancholy.

Wang Fei frowned: "What are you doing?"

Pei Shu glanced at Wang Fei, and suddenly smiled: "It's nothing, it's a trouble you can't understand."

Wang Singleist Mu Dan Fei looked at Pei Shu suspiciously, then shook his head and turned to leave.

When it was almost time for dinner, Wang Fei wanted to ask Pei Shu and Jiang Ziye to have something to eat, but Pei Shu refused.

Pei Shu had regained his composure at the moment, and calmly said, "You don't need to go out to eat tonight, there is a temporary dinner fed by investors."

When Wang Fei and Jiang Ziye heard that there was another dinner, they were looking forward to it. Li Chuyue is a good eater. The quality and taste of the dinner he invited was very outstanding. It was definitely better than finding a small restaurant nearby. Eat well.

It's just that they didn't expect that the investor of their studio, Li Chuyue, came with the fed dinner.

This was the first time Wang Fei and Jiang Ziye met Li Chuyue in the studio.

Li Chuyue came here directly after get off work from Li's Group today, and he was wearing a high-end suit that he usually wears at work.

It's completely different from his aura when he was wearing casual clothes, and he has a high-level temperament that makes life and death decisions lightly.

"Mr. Li?"

Wang Fei was the first to discover Li Chuyue, so he quickly got up and shook hands with the director who came to the studio for the first time to say hello.

He made up his mind to come to Pei Shu's small studio at the beginning. Li Chuyue's investment accounted for a large part of the reason. Now that the studio has been officially in operation for less than a month, Li Chuyue not only arranges afternoon tea every day, but also Chinese food from time to time. The dinner was delivered, and such attention made Wang Fei more sure that Li Chuyue attached great importance to this studio.

Li Chuyue's personal presence today also made Wang Fei secretly affirmed in his heart - after all, with Li Chuyue's net worth and an ordinary investment of 80 yuan, it is not worthy of him to attach so much importance to the studio.

Pei Shu didn't stand up right away, he still had a headache about Li Chuyue, and was a little worried that Li Chuyue would frighten Wang Fei and Jiang Ziye by acting like tea in the studio.

But Li Chuyue probably knew the worry in his heart, and when he saw him, his attitude towards him was very natural - it's just that this naturalness seemed to go in a different direction.

"Pei Pei." Li Chuyue smiled and walked to Pei Shu's side, and hugged Pei Shu very reservedly.

……

If Li Chuyue hadn't gently rubbed against his ear when he hugged him, he would have been taken aback by Li Chuyue's mature appearance today.

Since Li Chuyue was pretending, Pei Shu didn't intend to expose Li Chuyue's true colors in front of Wang Fei and Jiang Ziye, so instead of slapping him away, he just patted Li Chuyue's shoulder to signal him to let go.

Li Chuyue's mature and steady posture was really too bluffing, Jiang Ziye didn't notice anything wrong at all, only Wang Fei looked at it with a little doubt, but didn't pay much attention to it.

When Li Chuyue and Pei Shu had dinner together, Wang Fei felt that the relationship between Li Chuyue and Pei Shu didn't seem to be a normal one. Li Chuyue's attention and care for Pei Shu should be meticulous. many.

But Wang Fei didn't have doubts for too long, Li Chuyue seemed to be aware of Wang Fei's attention, and shook hands with him with a smile.

"It's a great honor to invite Mr. Wang to join our studio."

Wang Fei immediately nodded to Jiang Ziye: "No, I am also very honored."

In the following time, Li Chuyue seemed to use his dual-purpose ability to the extreme. While picking up food for Pei Shu, he quietly pushed the food he thought was delicious to Pei Shu, while talking to Wang Fei with a smile. progress of the project.

When talking about the project, Wang Fei put it bluntly: "...the current budget is still a bit stretched for game development and operation and promotion."

Li Chuyue wiped his hands with a tissue, and smiled: "Within my ability, I don't lose any reasonable funding needs of the studio, and I don't set an upper limit."

After Wang Fei heard this sentence, his eyes lit up slightly, and he nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Li, for your support of the studio."

This meal was a feast for the guests and the host.

When Li Chuyue was about to leave, Pei Shu personally sent him downstairs. Wang Fei originally planned to come to see him off in person, but Li Chuyue refused.

"You are busy, it's fine if Pei Pei sees me off."

Although Li Chuyue's nickname for Pei Shu seemed a bit weird to Wang Fei, but thinking that the two of them were young, he took back this weird feeling in his heart.

After Pei Shu accompanied Li Chuyue into the elevator, as soon as the elevator door closed, the guy who looked like a dog at one moment dropped his head on Pei Shu's shoulder the next.

"Pei Pei, I miss you so much! I haven't seen you at home for half a month!"

Pei Shu: "..."

He pushed the head on his shoulder, but it didn't work.

Pei Shu had a headache. Just as he was thinking about how to deal with the situation in front of him, Li Chuyue suddenly stood up obediently.

At this moment, the elevator had reached the floor of the underground garage, Li Chuyue blinked: "Pei Pei, I will wait for you to come back obediently at home!"

Pei Shu: "..."

Pei Shu pressed his brows with a headache. What's the matter with the illusion that the tea smelled like he was a scumbag wandering outside?

When the elevator door was closed again and Li Chuyue was nowhere to be seen, Pei Shu leaned on the elevator wall with some annoyance. When Li Chuyue leaned on his shoulder just now, he felt that the person who followed him back then My little friend has grown to the point where he can't push at all.

Why did Li Chuyue like him?

Pei Shu sighed, today was also a day when he couldn't figure it out.

When No Lost Studio started to promote their own projects, Pole Star Studio also conducted an internal creative draft during this period.

This is the internal practice of Polar Star Studio. One session per month. If there is an excellent work in the monthly competition that has been recognized by the studio's senior management and can meet the production standards, it will be considered to give the winner a certain amount of authority. Let the winner At least there is a chance to make a game demo and go into the project approval process within Huanyu Group.

On this day, Li Sheng and others had just finished reading the internal manuscripts of this issue.

Polaris studio management group

Li Sheng: [I saw a pretty good idea here. 】

Chen Shan: [I also saw it here. 】

Li Sheng: [The idea is good, and the design proposal is also very complete. The only problem is that it may not conform to the current mainstream of the market. 】

Someone saw their discussion and asked curiously: [Which idea is it? 】

Li Sheng: [The one with number 17. 】

When everyone dug up the draft document No. 17 from the work library, they all felt that this document was really good.

Li Sheng: [If you think so, let’s see who submitted this document, shall we? 】

With the consent of everyone, the author of the planning case No. 17 finally unveiled his mystery—Pole Star Studio, system planning—Lin Cheng.
