Chapter 673 Teacher He Is the Lamp

During the seven-day National Day holiday, Tengda is of course a normal holiday.

The last cycle has just ended, and Pei Qian's personal wealth has also reached 2.2 million very touchingly, so he can take this opportunity to take a good rest.

Parents finally moved to the new house.

Pei Qian's plan went smoothly. Let the elders take time to choose furniture, home appliances, etc., and then let them live there for a few days to add life to the house. After the elders get used to living in it, the house will be given away naturally. out.

However, this time when Pei Qian came to the new house near the high-speed rail station, although he had prepared himself in advance, he was still shocked by the soft decoration style inside.

The whole set of solid wood furniture is big and heavy, all in dark brown; lotus flowers are painted on the TV wall, and large landscape paintings hang on the wall; green plants can be seen everywhere in the living room, bedroom, and study.

Pei Qian thought silently, um, don't worry about it this time, this house will be given to the second elder, and he won't live in it no matter what he says.

But Pei Qian really doesn't need this house anymore, the sloth apartment is so comfortable to live in, and there are housekeepers and cleaners, so there is no need to tidy up the house or clean it.

As for the current two million personal property, Pei Qian has not figured out how to spend it for the time being.

Let’s save first, save some money, and the ability to resist risks will be stronger.

...

Saturday, October 8th, normal work.

Pei Qian came to the company office early. He has two things to do today.

First of all, the shock department and the Tenda Cornerstone Award were arranged.

Secondly, assign new game development tasks to the Tenda game department.

It is really difficult to choose between the shock department and the Tenda Cornerstone Award in this cycle.

Shock therapy is prepared for the departments that make the most money, but in the last cycle, it seemed that many departments were making money, but none of them made money to the point that Pei Qian was anxious.

Obviously, the 500 million ioi shares that made the most money, but should the account go to Yuanmeng Venture Capital, or to Shangyang Games? Neither seemed very appropriate.

Strictly speaking, this is a historical legacy.

Want to say shock old horse? That doesn't make sense either.

Therefore, Pei Qian thought for a long time, and decided that this cycle should be a shock and touch the fish Internet cafe. Of course, just to shock the management, each store is still operating normally.

After the management arranges the site selection and decoration of the new store, it will go to shock for three months, and the store employees will be paid extra wages according to the overtime standard, which will cost money without creating new backstabs, which is perfect.

Although Tengda Games and Shangyang Games should also be shocked, but this cycle is still counting on them to maintain normal operations to burn money, so they can only be spared.

As for the choice of Tenda Cornerstone Award, it also gave Pei Qian a headache.

Originally, if Moyu Foodway insisted on losing money until now, it would undoubtedly win the Tenda Cornerstone Award, but Moyu Foodway has already betrayed, so it is not eligible to win this award.

Other departments that Pei Qian gave high hopes to, including managed gyms, sloth apartments, etc., have basically made all kinds of moths, so they can only say goodbye to the cornerstone award of the "last reward system" up.

As for Headwind Logistics, I have already taken it once, so I can't keep taking it.

Pei Qian thought about it, and finally decided to give this award to OTTO Technology.

Although OTTO Technology didn't do anything, they only spent money and produced nothing, which is already a great achievement.

Rewards don't turn white, don't give out, the generals out of the dwarves, let's make do with it.

After everything was arranged, Pei Qian handed over the commendation to Assistant Xin, and then began to think about the new game.

This period is only four months, which is not enough for a well-made RTS game.

Not to mention doing CG, it's not enough.

Therefore, Pei Qian decided to drag this game to the next cycle, so that he could spend more money.

It's just that I don't have a clue how to do it in this game.

Pei Qian didn't want to make up his own mind, let alone let Hu Xianbin and the others play freely, no matter which one it was, it seemed that there would be no good results.

So, let’s turn to Mr. He for help!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian made a video call request to He An.

Not long after, the video call was connected.

He An has left Jingzhou and returned to his residence. Judging from the situation in the video, it seems that he is drinking tea and reading a book, quite leisurely.

"President Pei? What's the matter?" He An took a sip of tea slowly.

Pei Qian said very humbly: "Mr. He, I would like to ask about the new game."

"puff!"

He An almost choked.

For some reason, the more humble Mr. Pei's attitude is, the more people think he is pretending.

Fortunately, He An has gotten used to it. After coughing twice, he said, "Didn't I already explain everything clearly? What else is there to ask?"

"RTS games, the game body costs 200 million, and CG spends another 300 million, a total of 500 million, which is definitely challenging."

He An repeated what he said before.

Pei Qian nodded: "I know, Mr. He. But if only this is the case, I'm afraid it's not enough."

"Are you thinking about the details?"

"For example, what subject matter? What kind of story background to choose?"

"Should the operation difficulty of the game be more hardcore or simpler?"

He An at the other end of the video was stunned: "Let me choose this one too? This challenge is already high enough, do you want to add more?"

Pei Qian nodded hurriedly: "Yes, add more!"

He An was silent.

Are you so confident?

I have been doing RTS games, but I still think the difficulty is not enough, so I want to increase it?

OK, I hope you don't regret it.

He An thought about it, and said: "In terms of themes, there are actually not many options. They are nothing more than science fiction, western fantasy, and Chinese style."

"The sci-fi theme is "Star Sea", the western fantasy theme is "Fantasy War", Chinese style...no one has done it yet."

Pei Qian was overjoyed: "Then I will be an RTS of Huaxia style?"

He An chuckled: "Don't you want to be challenging? The Huaxia style RTS challenge is the worst!"

Pei Qian was stunned: "Huh?"

He An took a sip of tea and continued: "There are almost no RTS games that can be sold by domestic manufacturers. If you make an RTS game with the theme of the Three Kingdoms or ancient mythology, and then spend a lot of money to craft it, it will be of average quality. It will also be blown up by domestic players, after all, this is the only one!"

"At that time, foreign players will buy it because they are interested in Chinese culture, and the chance of success is still very high."

"If you want a challenge, choose western fantasy or science fiction, and directly touch "Fantasy War" and "Star Sea", how about it?"

Pei Qian suddenly realized.

Sure enough, an old family is like a treasure.

If I did it stupidly without asking Mr. He, and made a Chinese-style RTS game, I might earn money again!

Thinking about it carefully, what He An said made a lot of sense.

Dislocation competition, but the probability of success will be greatly increased.

On the contrary, RTS games have already had "Star Sea" and "Fantasy War" as their jewels, and if they follow suit and make a similar one, wouldn't this become pure head-to-head?

very good!

Mr. He is really scheming, and he feels stable!

Pei Qian raised his eyebrows with joy, and continued: "Okay, let's do this! Mr. He, go on, what about the difficulty of the game?"

He An frowned, and carefully looked at Mr. Pei's expression on the phone screen.

Seems really happy?

So confident?

I don't believe you dare to do what I say!

He An continued: "The operation difficulty of the game must be simpler."

Pei Qian froze for a moment: "Huh?"

He An chuckled: "Ah what? Don't you dare?"

Pei Qian scratched his head: "It's not that you don't dare, Mr. He, are you sure you can pay for it by doing something simpler... Oh no, it's more challenging?"

He An frowned slightly, a little confused whether Mr. Pei was telling the truth or acting: "Of course, there is nothing questionable about this."

"RTS games are now in decline, but there are a lot of old players, and the most important thing is feelings!"

"It's more cumbersome to operate. Like "Fantasy War" and "Star Sea 2", it will naturally be welcomed by hardcore players. This is the target player group of RTS games."

""Star Sea 2" was released the year before last. Although many people slammed it badly, the sales volume was not low at all. The expansion pack released last year was also well received."

"Although it is impossible to reproduce the glory of "Xing Hai", but purely from a commercial point of view, it is very successful!"

"Making the difficulty of the RTS game higher is the correct way to open it. As long as the requirements of these hardcore players can be met, their purchasing power is terrifying."

"On the contrary, if the RTS game is simple, it will be very embarrassing. For hardcore players, the game is too simple and boring to play; for ordinary players, no matter how simple it is, it is still an RTS game. Can it be compared with GOG? Or I won't touch it."

Pei Qian was stunned again.

yes! Teacher He is right!

After all, Pei Qian is also a person who has studied game design, and He An immediately understood after a little bit.

"Okay, I understand Mr. He! You are really my guiding light! When the game is finished, I will invite you to have a big meal at the nameless restaurant!"

Pei Qian was very grateful, and then hung up the video.

He An looked at the "Video End" prompt on the phone screen, and was a little puzzled.

What Mr. Pei said seems to be... a guiding lamp?

...

After hanging up the video, Pei Qian knew it all.

To make a low-difficulty sci-fi or western fantasy-themed RTS game, if you spend 500 million on it, you will definitely lose money!

Then the question comes, whether to do science fiction or western fantasy.

After thinking about it, let's do science fiction.

On the one hand, "Xinghai 2" was released more than a year ago, and it is still popular until now. If you hit this, the probability of failure is higher.

If you hit "Battle of Fantasy", it was a game nine years ago after all, and the probability of failure is not that high.

On the other hand, there are a lot of heroes in GOG that are suitable for the Western Fantasy background. Pei Qian is afraid that the new game will cooperate with GOG and kidnap all GOG players, which will be troublesome.

From past experience, this is not impossible.

Therefore, if you still do sci-fi themes, the probability of failure is greater, and you will burn more money!

It's not a broken chapter, I really didn't think about it, the game name has been thought about for three hours and I still haven't decided, the plot of this cycle has not been finished yet, I have to write slowly. You can fill out this questionnaire to find out what is related to this book.
