Number One Game Designer

Chapter 301: Fang Xi's new secretary

The VR department is in a new building rented by Fang Xi, separated from the original office building by a tree-lined path. Now Fang Xi and Xiaolan are strolling on it.

Seeing Fang Xi's wink, Xiao Lan chuckled a little:

"So, boss, are you sure you don't need me to open Dr. Geng?"

With a sideways glance at Xiao Lan, who was watching the show, Fang Xi let out a "Ho":

"Just because he yelled at me?"

Xiaolan nodded pretentiously.

"If I have shrunk a prototype by 300%, and the boss is not satisfied and asks me to shrink it by 3000%, I guess this is the attitude, it's normal." Fang Xi said indifferent: "But isn't the technology like this? , Despise the target strategically, and attach importance to the target tactically."

"So this is why you agreed to add three times the R&D funds?" Xiaolan asked curiously.

Although she is not the company's financial affairs, a lot of Fang Xi's expenditures are in her hands, so Xiao Lan is also clear about the funding for many departments, but she never shows off to others, which is one of the reasons Fang Xi trusts her.

And for this VR department, which currently has only one prototype, its budget is almost equivalent to the budget of all game departments, but Fang Xi now says that it will add three times the budget. Even if it wasn't financial, this figure surprised her secretly.

"Yes." Fang Xi said in silence:

"We are a gaming company, there is no doubt about it."

"We humans are very interesting creatures. We started playing games with our own bodies, such as long-distance running, swimming competitions and so on."

"Later, this part was renamed as sports, and then we invented the use of some objects to make regular sounds to make ourselves happy. This part later became music."

"From then to now, when we were young, we had red and white machines, then arcade machines, and now computers. We are getting better and better at pleasing ourselves, but I always feel that this is not the final form of video games, so I tried Pushing technological innovation to the limit is also the purpose of research."

Then Fang Xi thought of the handle vibration bag sold on the earliest old N64. Although the N64 was fun, it was not at a monopoly level for other home machines, but this now seems simple handle vibration bag. As soon as it came out, the N64 immediately had no rivals in the market, and it surpassed the big step from visual feedback to tactile feedback. And now Fang Xi’s hopes VR technology also has such an effect, no, it’s better than this effect!

"So our VR is temporarily out of production, right?" Xiaolan looked at Fang Xi as if pensive and in a daze, cautiously.

"Of course not." Fang Xi replied categorically: "Remember, we must release all our products in the future, and we must be able to ensure that at least no one can imitate us in a short period of time on the market."

"Technical generation difference, this is the best monopoly method."

...

Until the scorching August came again, the studio under the charge of Chen Yu in Haifang City finally officially put up the sign.

There is also a line of small prints for the product under the studio name: R&D headquarters of "Super Speed ​​Racing"

Although Fang Xi likes the stalk of Qiu Mingshan very much, there is no "Initial D" in this world yet, so Qiu Mingshan Gunma County is just an ordinary place. Without this history, it is almost impossible to name a racing game, and even Yes, if the name of Hongyi’s sponsor is set, the name of the sponsor will probably be shrunk tenfold. After all, almost only Toyota and Mazda cars appeared in the original animation, and there are few other brands.

In short, after Hongyi's team returned from Los Angeles, Chen Yu began to concentrate on organizing the recruitment of automotive engineers, the formation of R&D teams, the complement of racing knowledge, and the research of game drafts that Fang Xi gave him.

If it weren’t for the familiarity of the planning case, Chen Yu would have forgotten that he was also a game planner at the beginning. Later, because of his rigorous work habits, he was valued by Fang Xi, and he became the management directly, and gradually became the game designer industry. The journey went further, until now, holding the draft given by Fang Xi again, did Chen Yu in a daze remember why he came to Hongyi in the first place?

Because I had no way to display my ambitions in the original company, but after I came to the new company, my position rose the fastest among the seven people at the beginning, but the person who was together at the beginning, Aden is now the top leader of the Hongyi web game, although The game field developed by Hongyi has experienced a short period of prosperity and has begun to shrink, but the current dominance in this field is still no one can shake.

Lu Qiu has already decided to devote himself to female-oriented game production and set the goal of creating the best game for all girls. Only oneself, the distance from game development is getting farther and farther. Although last time in Los Angeles and Lu Qiu were able to cooperate very well when they were busy together, the chat was completely gone.

It wasn't until Fang Xi's handwritten plan was obtained that Chen Yu suddenly realized that his original identity was also a designer. It is our responsibility to make the best game.

Of course, it is also possible that Fang Xi’s writing is too scribble: this draft has traces of alteration everywhere, and many of the writing is self-contradictory-this is not surprising, the last time and space racing game was trapped by licensing fees, so the scale has been It’s difficult to roll out, and some of the games’ protagonists are the speed party. The game plot is similar to the speed and passion of the game while fighting the traffic police. Some simply focus on the game, such as the dusty rally championship stunts and so on. Wait.

Fang Xi really doesn't understand this aspect, so this draft is actually to scribble down those he still remembers, and then believe that Chen Yu will hand in a satisfactory answer.

At this time, Chen Yu also turned to the end of the draft and saw the sticky smiley face drawn by Fang Xi and the message next to it:

"So are you ready to return to the life of a designer? Then this is the test. Take inspiration from these and make a racing game that the world likes!"

One sentence let all Chen Yu's complaints disappear.

...

Fang Xi's own office.

"And he is still grateful to me for the most part now."

Fang Xi made tea for Lu Wanqi on the sofa in front of him and said:

"A good boss who is sympathetic to his subordinates, and a good mentor who is also a teacher and friend. Oh, I start to like the person I created for him."

Lu Wanqi picked up the hot tea and sipped it. Drinking hot tea in a cold air-conditioned room in the hot weather is really a way of enjoying the taste, but at the same time, she must cooperate with Fang Xi:

"But actually?"

"Actually?" Fang Xi finally showed a stinky face when he said this: "Actually, Chen Yu is the best assistant I have ever used. He is very happy to pursue his ideals, but he doesn't even think about him. How troublesome will my work be after I'm gone?"

"I want him to be grateful to me for the next half of his life, this is the best punishment!" Then Fang Xi took a vicious sip of tea, and then he was scalded and hissed.

Lu Wanqi couldn't laugh or cry: "Well, then punish him and punish him. I will be your secretary."
