Almighty Game Designer (Almighty Video Game Designer)

Chapter 40: Interview

These requirements are all added together, Chen Mo wants to find someone like this:

Young, have the potential to dig.

The ability is more comprehensive and can be used as an assistant's job.

Have a basic understanding of the game.

The character is reliable and trustworthy.

According to this standard, Chen Mo screened all the resumes sent today.

The result is regrettable.

No one meets the requirements of Chen Mo.

Of course, Chen Mo has long been psychologically prepared for this result. His request was very strict, and on the first day, he did not need to worry at all.

......

Three days later.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the experience store opened normally. Chen Mo continued to write the design document of the new version of Plants vs. Zombies with his laptop at the front desk.

The several major functions of this time are relatively simple, they are attached to the original framework, and the rules are very clear, so the writing is very smooth, there is not much need to be repeatedly considered.

The big framework has been almost the same, and the next work is mainly to refine the documentation and production.

During these three days, Chen Mo received many resumes from candidates and arranged four or five interviews, but he was not satisfied with the results and did not find the assistants and front desk he wanted.

A few people who came to the interview were either almost spiritual, or they were careful to think too clearly, and they all had their own problems. Chen Mo was not satisfied.

After all, there are still differences between looking at resumes and real interviews. Words and demeanor, words and deeds, and some subtleties can also reflect something.

Chen Mo’s standard is that unless you are particularly satisfied with yourself, the other will not be considered.

He is definitely not going to make do.

"Hello, I am coming to the interview." A voice said.

Chen Mo looked up and saw a girl outside the door, about twenty-three years old, short hair Qi Liu, very cute, with a heartfelt smile on his face, very infectious.

"Oh, hello, please come in."

Chen Mo stood up and took out the resume that had already been printed from the side.

Chen Mo took the girl to the conference room and poured a glass of water.

Su Yuyu, 23 years old, is a well-known key university in the imperial capital. He is a student of the art major. During the school, the rewards are soft and the resumes are almost impossible to write.

However, Chen Mo roughly judged that Su Yuyu is not a strong backbone of the kind of Wen Lingwei, but a model of partiality. The various rewards on the resume are basically the kind of hard work that others are not willing to do.

In other words, she is not the kind of speculative drill-type students, on the contrary, it is more practical to work.

Up to now, Chen Mo’s impression of Su Yuyu is not bad.

"I have already read your resume. The basic situation is understood. The interview is just a chat, don't be nervous." Chen Mo said.

Su Yuyu nodded: "Well!"

Chen Mo felt that he was too worried. Su Shiyu did not have any nervous emotions. She should have seen this scene at school. It may also be that she is born with a big heart.

"You write on your resume, the front desk and assistants can, why?" Chen Mo asked.

Su Yuyu said: "Ah, because I feel that if I can't be an assistant, I will be the front desk. I should be able to learn something at the front desk."

This is a very pragmatic answer. Chen Mo can see that Su Shiyu's posture is relatively low, probably because she tried to be a game designer before but failed.

"Why don't the art major do the painter, but choose to be a game designer? I saw your hand-painted, high level, and can be qualified for the original painter." Chen Mo asked.

Su Yuyu replied: "Well... on the one hand, because of being a designer, I can use my ability in painting. On the other hand, I think game designers are a more creative career."

Chen Mo said: "But you have also tried to develop some independent games, and you have never been a designer. Do you feel that you are not talented enough?"

Su Yuyu said: "Well, maybe my talent is not high, but I will not give up!"

Chen Mo nodded and continued to ask the next question: "What do you think is the most important quality of game designers?"

Su Shiyu's brows are slightly wrinkled. Obviously this is a relatively empty question. She needs to think for a while.

"Well, I think the most important quality of game designers is to stick to their beliefs." Su Yuyu replied.

Chen Moyi: "Faith?"

Su Yuyu explained: "Ah, don't get me wrong, it's not the belief in the traditional sense. I mean, game designers should always stick to their own heart and make games that move the players, bringing joy and inspiration to the players."

Chen Mo thought for a moment and asked: "If there is an opportunity now, you can make a game with poor reputation but make money, will you do it?"

Su Yuyu has some doubts: "The word of mouth is bad, why do you make money?"

Chen Mo said: "It's just a hypothesis."

Su Shiyu thought for a moment: "Well... I don't know. I can only say that if this game makes me think it is a bad game, then I won't do it even if I make money again."

Chen Mo continued to ask: "What if I want to make such a game?"

Su Yuyu said: "Ah? You are the designer of Plants vs. Zombies. Can you make this kind of game, how can you ignore the word of mouth for money?"

Chen Mo said: "To be honest, I have a good chance to develop some games that make money but have a bad reputation. If you can't accept this, then we can't cooperate."

Su Yuyu's brows are slightly wrinkled. Obviously this choice makes her somewhat tangled.

After thinking for a moment, Su Yuyu said: "I should not be able to change your mind. To be honest, I really like the game "Zombies vs. Zombies". I think you can develop such a game, it must be a talented talented designer. Be sure to learn a lot of things as your assistant."

"I am a relatively stupid person. I wanted to be a game designer myself, but I didn't succeed, so I want to start with my assistant and learn."

"Do you think this is OK, I will be the front desk, but you can also let me take on some assistant work. If I encounter a game I don't like, I can choose not to do it."

Su Yuyu’s attitude is very sincere, neither giving up his persistence nor attempting to influence Chen’s concept.

If you are an assistant, then Su Yuyu must completely obey Chen Mo’s command in game design. Even if Chen Mo asks her to do a game she doesn’t like, she must do it. This is the professional cultivation of game designer assistants.

Therefore, Su Yuyu wants to be the front desk and serve as an assistant. This is a relatively compromise approach.

Chen Mo thought about it.

Su Yuyu is his most satisfied candidate so far. The most important thing is that Su Yuyu has a natural love for the game, and she is a person full of positive energy, positive attitude and very capable of infecting others. Working with such people should be It is very enjoyable.

However, what worried Chen Mo was that Su Yuyu and his philosophy did not fully fit.

Obviously, Su Yuyu is a person who must "stand still and earn money", while Chen Mo is different.

The game industry is very dangerous. In front of Chen Mo, there are also huge monsters such as emperor and mutual entertainment and Zen mutual entertainment. There are countless latecomers who are looking at it and want to be the only winner in this environment. A few quality games in the past are not enough.

Chen Mo wants to develop a large-scale boutique game, which requires a lot of money, so for him, the only goal now is to make more money, and it is not necessary to sacrifice some word of mouth for the time being.

This will definitely conflict with Su Shiyu's philosophy.

Chen Mo thought for a moment and said: "Let's do it. Before you graduate, you can always be the front desk here and serve as an assistant. If you have any dissatisfaction, you want to leave, you can always. If you are willing to wait for your graduation. Stay, let's sign the formal contract, how about?"
