Chapter 141 Me and the World(1/2)
Jin Jian looked at the enthusiastic people and said: "Currently, the liquid funds in our company's account are about 20 million. I plan to reserve 10 million to rent a larger office building for the company and buy a basic building."
Facilities and improve our office environment. The remaining 10 million will be divided between the two departments."
,!
Everyone was silent for a moment, thinking about something in their hearts.
Kang Jiayu was the first to speak: "We already have the budget for the third episode of The Voice of Wonder, and our Variety Show Department will not participate in the 10 million yuan."
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Xiaoxiao and others' eyes lit up.
Xiao Xiaoxiao quickly expressed his gratitude, so the 10 million was naturally transferred to the game department's budget.
Overjoyed, Xiao Xiaoxiao looked at Jin Jian and said, "Mr. Jin, does our company have a basic server?"
Jin Jian said: "Not yet, but we can take advantage of Honghuo."
"What?" Xiao Xiaoxiao shook his head: "The computing speed and data bandwidth must not meet the requirements. Our idea is to make an action-type large-scale console game, and an independent server host library is indispensable.
.”
Jin Jian didn't know much about this aspect of the game. After thinking about it, he frowned and asked, "Isn't ten million enough?"
Xiao Xiaoxiao discussed it with the people around him.
After the discussion, Xiao Xiaoxiao said: "The game we are going to make is a AAA masterpiece that can subvert the domestic game market! Looking at the preliminary preparation work, 10 million is enough, but the total investment in the game
At least 30 million is required, and an additional 5 million may be required at a later stage.”
"What?!" Jin Jian was shocked: "Thirty-five million?! Just to make a game?!"
Are you crazy? Do you think money comes from strong winds?
Even Kang Jiayu and others were a little surprised.
You know, the total investment for the second phase of Beautiful Voice is less than 30 million.
Good guy, you’re just making a game, so you dare to ask for more than 30 million?
"Of course it's not just about making games." Xiao Xiaoxiao's chubby face was full of seriousness as he said: "There are also publicity through various channels, the purchase and maintenance of servers... there are many places to spend money!"
Hearing this, Jin Jian couldn't help but shake his head: "No, no, it's too much investment!"
In Jin Jian's opinion, this ten million should be enough for them to live happily for a while.
I didn’t expect that eating it all in one go wouldn’t be enough?!
I don’t study well, don’t lie to me. Is it so expensive to make games?
"More than 30 million yuan is a big investment? The development cost of the same type of games on the market has exceeded 100 million yuan, right?" Xiao Xiaoxiao pushed up his glasses and said: "Besides, it's just a large investment in the early stage. Wait for the game
Once completed, the funds invested in daily operations are completely negligible, and you can just sit back and collect the money.”
Jin Jian felt that his outlook on life had been reconstructed.
Just making a game, how can you spend so much money!?
Are you still sitting around collecting money? Can you get your capital back?
Jin Jian looked at Fang Jin and asked, "Boss, what do you say?"
Fang Jin had been thinking about something in a daze. When he heard someone calling him, he came back to his senses: "Ah? What did you say?"
Jin Jian: "...It's okay, just rest first."
You can’t count on this guy at all!
Fang Jin continued to be in a daze: "Okay."
After ignoring Fang Jin, Jin Jian looked at Xiao Xiaoxiao and said: "The capital investment is too large and the return cycle is too long. Are you making games or burning money? I don't agree with this!"
This first site is:
Xiao Xiaoxiao was a little anxious: "How can you make games without burning money?! I promise you on the risk of my own life that I will definitely make back my money!"
Jin Jian still refused to let go: "No, no, it's too risky. Let's test the waters by making a few small games first. We can talk about 3a masterpieces later."
Xiao Xiaoxiao gritted his teeth: "Making mini-games again? Is it possible that our Dimei Studio is only destined to make mini-games?"
As soon as these words came out, other people in Dimei Studio were filled with indignation:
"We have been playing small games for eight years, can't you give us a chance to prove ourselves?"
"You don't believe in our strength, do you?"
As a game producer, my biggest dream is to make a AAA masterpiece that will become popular all over the world.
Mini-games and the like are really made out of necessity. To let game producers make mini-games is to insult them.
Seeing that there was going to be a conflict, Jin Jian quickly said: "It's not that I don't believe you, it's just that the company's funds can't bear such a consumption. What I mean is that we can make a less expensive game first. If
If possible, consider the 3A masterpiece you mentioned."
Xiao Xiaoxiao was a little discouraged, but he had to lower his head under the eaves. After thinking about it, he said helplessly: "Okay."
Xiao Xiaoxiao and the others also knew that the budget required for the game was indeed too scary for people who did not understand the market, so they were mentally prepared for this result.
But even though they were mentally prepared, Xiao Xiaoxiao and others couldn't help but feel disappointed.
It seems that we are still a long way from our dream.
At this time, Jin Jian thought of something again and added: "Also, if I don't see any hope of profit during the production of the game, then I'm sorry, I will withdraw my investment immediately. I still understand the principle of stopping losses in time."
"
"None of the games we make in the United States lose money..." Suddenly, Xiao Xiaoxiao frowned: "Wait, you mean, you still need to participate in the production process of the game?"
Jin Jian nodded matter-of-factly and said, "Of course, otherwise why would I acquire you?"
Xiao Xiaoxiao shook his head resolutely: "That won't work! The biggest fear in making a game is someone blindly giving instructions. Let professional people do the professional work. If you also participate, if the game is finished and the game is finished, it will be attacked.
Whose fault is it?”
"It's just a game, why is it so troublesome?" Jin Jian was annoyed by the game and waved his hand impatiently: "I don't care about the rest. Anyway, we must participate in the production process of the game.
This is non-negotiable!"
The original purpose of starting this game company was because Fang Jin wanted to make games. If he couldn't participate in the production process of the game, then what kind of game company would he start?
Xiao Xiaoxiao gritted his teeth and refused to give in: "No!"
,.
Jin Jian’s attitude was very tough: “If you can’t do it, you have to do it!”
For a moment, the atmosphere in the conference room became a little tense.
Kang Jiayu and others watched the excitement silently, while Xiao Xiaoxiao and others looked a little ugly.
Xiao Xiaoxiao pushed up his glasses, took a breath, and said seriously: "Then let me tell you directly, you only need to contribute the money in making the game, and you don't have to worry about anything else. After we make the game, we will earn
The money will be returned to you."
Jin Jian sneered: "Then what's the difference between this and investing?"
"This is investment!" Xiao Xiaoxiao said, holding his stubby neck: "But if you insist on the practice of laymen commanding experts, I'm sorry, we will never accept it!"
"Don't accept it?" Jin Jian's expression turned cold: "Then you..."
At this time, Fang Jin, who had been offline for a long time, finally reconnected. He suddenly interrupted Jin Jian's words: "I've thought about it! Let's do this for the first game!"
Jin Jian: "..."
What kind of nerve is this?
,!
At least pay attention to the current situation before speaking!
Everyone looked at Fang Jin in confusion, wondering what this guy wanted to do.
Fang Jin said excitedly: "The game I want to make is an open-world console game that integrates survival, cultivation, construction and other gameplay methods. This world is entirely composed of simple blocks, and what is presented is not
The graphics and special effects are gorgeous, but the focus is on gameplay, so even the worst equipment can play this game."
Fang Jin's words made Xiao Xiaoxiao and others frown and fell into deep thought. They threw aside the 3a masterpiece, investment budget and so on.
Jin Jian didn't care about arguing with Xiao Xiaoxiao, and quickly took out his voice recorder, preparing to record Fang Jin's words.
Kang Jiayu, Zhang Xu and others showed interested expressions.
Fang Jin continued: "Players can create and destroy blocks in the game in the three-dimensional space. The gameplay is diverse and focuses on allowing players to explore, interact, and change a map dynamically generated by blocks. In addition to blocks,
,Environmental units also include plants, animals and objects..."
Hearing this, everyone's faces showed a look of yearning.
It seems like a lot of fun.
"...Players can collect ores, fight hostile creatures, synthesize new blocks, and collect various resources and tools found in the game..."
This first site is:
As Fang Jin narrated, everyone slowly entered a magical world that was infinitely vast and full of infinite possibilities.
