Otherworldly Architect

On this side, Blue Star Studio is still collectively apologizing.

On the other hand, the Tulong Baodao studio has entered another "life and death, endless cycles of reincarnation".

Just a few months ago, Chief Designer Ming finally remembered that he still had a trumpet.

There were batches of documents, blog posts, and finally a new game concept was proposed in Tulong Baodao Studio.

At that time, all the staff in the studio were excited, they were finally able to grab an idea from Mr. Ming again——

This feeling is like an unfavored imperial concubine who has waited for many years to finally get the emperor's favor again!

After all, it has been a long time since Tulong Baodao Studio has produced a decent work.

PS: "Decent" in the terminology of Tulong Baodao is basically equivalent to "robbing money".

However, Chief Master Ming really ran away after raising a concept like a ungrateful emperor.

——Like an irresponsible scumbag who left a dragon!

The deputy chief engineer of Tulong Baodao Studio worked hard to pull together a research and development team, and often held remote and explicit meetings to determine the specific details of the design.

Although the progress of the project is not as fast as that of Blue Star's group of overtime workers, it is not slow.

It has always been different from Blue Star's concept of full-group creation and striving for high-quality products. Tulong Baodao is more accustomed to outsourcing bulk work to professional production companies.

So far, there are still only 200 members in the Tulong Baodao Studio, while Blue Star has almost exceeded 800 people-including the new game development team and the old game update and operation team.

On Tulongbaodao's side, there are basically no more than three employees in professional fields such as music producers, 3D modelers, and plot planners. Most of them are used to connect with outsourcing, but they don't often produce directly.

They pay attention to: efficiency = least resources + best results.

This time, the new game of the Dragon Slaying Sword seems to be a little princess who is doomed to be unfavored before she was born. Chief Master Ming can't even come up with a name.

Ming Yan explained with embarrassment: "Actually... I'm not very familiar with the female market, and I don't know what kind of name will be more popular with female players."

Deputy chief teacher: "..." Who are you kidding!Who are you kidding!

——Didn’t you design the popular soft assistants in “League of Legends”?Those beautiful girl skins that are about to explode in sales every year and festival...doesn't it count?

The consequence of being too famous is that others often worship Mingyan as an omnipotent god.

When God said that He had a rock that he could not lift, no one believed it.

Mingyan was full of black lines, so he had to go home with a few names provided by the marketing department of Tulong Baodao, and discussed with Xia Cheng.

"Which name do you think... is more appropriate?" Ming Yan asked.

Xia Cheng stared at the name of the game above, and fell into a long-term bewilderment.

——"The Court"? "Little Princess' Wardrobe"? "Cloud Thinking Clothes"? "Wide Sleeves"? "Sparkling Mirror"?What kind of names are these?

——Why are girls interested in these things?Don't they have makeup mirrors and wardrobes in their own bedrooms, why would they pay for another virtual wardrobe?

The two men entered a state of contemplation at the same time.

Then, Mingyan finally began to ask for help outside the court.

He got through the communication with his secretary, Miss Sister, and asked a few questions.

For some reason, Blue Star's designers gathered around the communication, and turned the call into an informal planning meeting.

Then, not long after, under the suggestion of a plot planner, it became a vote of all female employees of Blue Star.

——They chose "Yun Xiang Clothes"!

Mingyan finally breathed a sigh of relief, and sent the result back to the Tulongbaodao studio.

Then the deputy chief teacher showed an expression of "Boss really has a plan for a long time, but he is still pretending to be a big clove of garlic", and then asked: "Boss, and our main plot, how many questions did you ask?" None of the outsourcing solutions are very satisfactory, can you take a look at them?"

Clearly stated: "..."

The next day, Mingyan brought home a few outlines of the scripts and discussed them with Xia Cheng.

Xia Cheng showed a hesitant expression, and said, "Do you really think it's useful to discuss this with me?"

Said plainly: "One plus one equals two..."

Xia Cheng said: "Is the perfect score [-]?"

Mingyan nodded silently.

Both of them sighed together.

Then the two of them flipped through the general outline again, and fell into a state of sitting against each other again.

——The theme of ancient palace fighting is gods and demons?Don't girls have zero tolerance for cheating, why would they be willing to grab a virtual emperor man with other people?

——The theme of simulating female stars looks very good, but do female stars not endorse or send clothes from manufacturers?Can't you rent famous brands and buy custom-made ones?

——And this...a different world where the outcome of a battle is determined by how well-matched the clothes look? ? ? ! !

Ming Yan was surprised: "The screenwriting industry is really full of talents, and even such a magical brain hole can be opened."

"I remember that there was once a hit movie, which was also brainstormed, and it was played by Julie." Xia Cheng was also in a mess, opened the last general outline and started to read.

It's a pity that although the last brain hole is well developed, the direction of the story is not satisfactory, and the screenwriter failed to control this theme well.

After thinking about it, Xia Cheng called out the smart butler, and searched for the movie from that year.

Coincidentally, the film was produced by Golden Ring Films - the same company that collaborated with Blue Star Studios at that time to produce the big movie "Blue Star Doom"!

Back then, their boss met Mingyan at the League One's annual awards ceremony, and they have always been fans of Mingyan's games.

Xia Cheng said: "Since it's someone we've worked with, why don't you ask if there are any opportunities for commercial cooperation. There are many professional screenwriting teams on the Golden Ring side, who are good at all kinds of themes and have everything you expect. Let them write a female to the game There is no problem with the script, if you think about it.”

Mingyan quickly contacted the former person in charge of Blue Star, and then took him to Tulong Baodao studio to discuss cooperation with Golden Ring Films.

Of course, this is another cross-star province cooperation, and it will take a few days to establish contact first.

As for the two responsible persons——

At first, he was a little confused, and said: "Ah, boss, it turns out that we are going to cooperate with the next door Tulong Baodao again."

Then, the two of them found that both of them were calling Mingyan boss.

"??????"

"!!!!!!"

Mingyan rubbed his nose, and said helplessly, "Well, yes, I am the chief person in charge on both sides."

And got two dazed faces looking at each other.

Next, in fact, the person in charge of Golden Ring Films was also full of question marks when he received the email in his own name.

The answer came first with a sentence: [Master Ming, hello, first of all, congratulations on the acquisition of Tulong Baodao Studio...]

After that, he was naturally very willing to cooperate with Mingyan.

First of all, I don’t need to explain that I am a very high-quality partner. I never delay or lose money when talking about things, and pay attention to fairness and justice.

Just because of the current name of Blue Star Studio, it is already a well-known boutique studio in Chaoyang Alliance.

If it was said that during the cooperation back then, the leading Golden Ring Films acquired the IP of Blue Star Doomsday, then now the same leading master Ming decided to come to Golden Ring to acquire the script.

It's just a matter of identity...

Mingyan was very helpless, so he had to explain the last sentence of the reply in a joking tone: 【Thank you very much for your congratulations, but Tulong Baodao studio has been under my name since ancient times...】

The identities that were once only known by one or two people now seem to be exposed more and more.

Although every time I make a statement, I will remind you that I hope the other party will not expose this matter to the public, but——

Ah, I always feel that this vest is getting more and more crumbling.

Of course, the draft cooperation items were attached to the email.

Tulong Baodao studio packaged the main plot of the new game "Yunxiang Clothes" and handed it over to the "Spring Rain" screenwriter team of Golden Ring Films for full production, and paid a one-time labor fee of 200 million yuan.

The entire plot production cycle is three months, and the content includes about [-] words of plot creation, and needs to meet the corresponding requirements of Tulong Baodao Studio.

The fee of 200 million is really quite small for a professional team. It is obvious that Golden Ring Films is selling a favor to Mingyan.

Because Golden Circle has never needed to take this kind of outsourcing orders to make money, their movies, whether they make profits or losses, start counting from "[-] million".

So the matter of money is not important at all, what is important is that their boss wants to discuss another matter with Mingyan, so they sell one to Mingyan first, and it will be easier to discuss cooperation in the future.

He said he didn't know, but Golden Ring had already aimed at another game under Bluestar...

——"League of Legends" has entered its fifth season!

In the fifth year, the popularity of "League of Legends" has not decreased but increased, showing a trend of "I'm going to kill all the competitive games in the field" as an evergreen tree in the industry, which almost makes people's jaw drop.

Its momentum is so huge that it is almost becoming the second largest e-sports competition in the Chaoyang League after the First Division League.

Now that the league has just started, there are already corresponding ripples in all walks of life.

It is conceivable that after the finals this year, there will inevitably be "earthquakes" in many dormitory buildings, many self-media will be swiped by "waterfalls", and a large number of related new memes will frantically sweep across the stars, forming a tornado-like momentum...

Of course, this also caused a lot of waves in the film and television industry.

Many screenwriters have fallen in love with the content of this theme!Even Jin Huan was poking secretly to fight for the opportunity.

——There is nothing more inspirational than an unknown game master finally becoming an e-sports champion!

And the audience is naturally so wide, anyone who has a sense of the market knows that this will be the next outlet... not this year, but next year.

So to be able to connect with Blue Star's Master Ming in advance, many people think that their boss was too insightful back then.
