The Creator of the Second Dimension

Chapter 194: .Cooperation or competition

The first three episodes of the "Classical Literature Club Series" were quickly completed. Xu Rui stopped the pen in his hand, stretched his waist, and then prepared to go to the Hatsune Game Headquarters next door.

There was a light rain outside the window, drizzle, and no sound of moisturizing. Xu Rui greeted the girl at the front desk, took a transparent umbrella, opened it, and walked quickly to the office building of Hatsune Games.

It’s still busy here. "Bloodborne: The Curse" is about to start the swimsuit event in July and August. The swimsuit version of each character is being drawn urgently to catch up with the publicity. These swimsuit characters are not skins, but brand new and have their own independence. The new role of skills, so the design work is very complicated.

Xu Rui and Holofei said hello, and went to the reception room with him.

Two men in suits and leather shoes are already waiting here.

"Hello, I'm Shi Dao from Suo Ren Interactive Entertainment's game development department, and this is my colleague Li Zhen."

When the two saw Xu Rui coming in, they immediately got up, and the man standing in front stretched out his hand to Xu Rui.

Several people shook hands before sitting down.

Shi Dao's hair is slightly longer, with a bit of artistic flavor, and has a mustache, while Li Zhen is younger, with a flat head, and looks capable and shrewd.

After receiving the other party's business card, Xu Rui glanced at the title. Shi Dao is the head of Suo Ren's game console development department, and Li Zhen is the head of the third development department.

"I won't say much about greetings, let's get straight to the point."

Xu Rui put away the business card and looked at each other.

"Hatsune Games is preparing to develop an exclusive console game on the SN platform of Suo Ren Hu Yu. I hope that your company can provide some development machines and certain technical support."

Hearing Xu Rui's words, Shi Dao was stunned and asked immediately.

"I originally thought you would commission our company to develop games."

After receiving the news of the business cooperation of Hatsune Games, the game department of Suo Ren Huyu still attached great importance to it, and immediately sent the person in charge of the console and the boss of the production team over. They felt that Hatsune Games and Xu Rui now hold hands. With several big IPs, whether it's the popular "Magic Girl Madoka Magica" or "Bloodborne: Curse", there is enough content to support an adapted game work. Now seeking their cooperation, it must be authorized and commissioned to develop.

"If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely choose to develop a game with Suo Ren Huyu, but first I want to set up my own console game development department."

Xu Rui smiled and said that since the beginning of the year, Xu Rui has asked Holofer to recruit console game developers, from art to modeling, from programming to numerical values, because last year's "Blood: The Curse" was awarded at the Game of the Year Awards. Having won many awards on the Internet, this high-quality web game has also entered the field of vision of many practitioners, and Holofer is not difficult to recruit.

"Own game development department?"

Li Zhen's eyes widened slightly. To be honest, he has met many people who say similar words to Xu Rui. These people have made money in the mobile game circle and want to "go ashore" through console games. However, the inertial thinking of mobile games and the lack of experience in game development in the console field made these production teams suffer miserably without exception.

However, Li Zhen has played "Bloodborne: The Curse". In his opinion, without drawing cards and other krypton gold elements, this is still an excellent turn-based game, many of which are difficult to think of even in the mainstream game industry.

In fact, after the "Bloodborne: Curse" fire broke out in August last year, some independent game production teams also "copy" the game mode of "Bloodborne: Curse" and developed their own games, which also caused several waves. Controversial, but most of these games eventually sold beyond expectations, which shows the exquisite game design of "Bloodborne: Curse".

"Yes, even though Hatsune Games started from web games, I am also a loyal console player myself. I will also play games with my family during holidays and breaks. As Hatsune Games' first step towards the console market, I think Be as perfect as possible."

Xu Rui explained.

"It's true that although there are several well-known free studios in the industry, the schedules are quite tight."

Shi Dao said with emotion.

For example, the Golden Studio, which helped the game department of Tomato Video Network to develop the host game "Iron Sorcerer: Magic Engraving", is a game studio established by several game producers who were previously independent from the hat game, and inherited the hat game's expertise. As for the characteristics of action games, Golden Studio also focuses on the development of action games.

It’s just that the Golden Studio itself is very ambitious, but the development capabilities are slightly insufficient. There has been a cooperation with another console developer’s hard-core software to develop games before, and the result is half of the development because of insufficient technical skills. Scandal.

If it were not for the famous producer of Golden Studio itself, action games are second only to hat games, and it is estimated that few companies would be willing to find them.

"Suoren Huyu has strong technical strength. Of course we know it. That's why we want to seek technical support from you. We can also share the benefits of this game."

Xu Rui means that Suo Ren Huyu will become a technology shareholder and participate in the development of this game. When the time comes, everyone will share the money.

Shi Dao fell into thinking.

In fact, the IP of Hatsune Games is exclusively on the SN of Suoren Huyu. This is already a victory. Suoren Huyu is now in fierce competition with the hard-core software on the host market. SN and the opponent’s game host are basically white boxes. Although the SN host is portable and the graphics are also good, the white box relies on the **** software to buy out the studio's work, spend money to promote the installed capacity, and quickly occupy it. market.

As the hottest game development of last year, Hatsune Games was able to stand on the side of Suo Ren Mutual Entertainment, and Shi Dao was already very satisfied.

"Well, our development department can't make a decision on this business. We still need the decision of business cooperation and other departments and the big boss. I will convey this intention to the past and hope to achieve this cooperation."

Shi Dao paused and said.

"To be honest, Mr. Xu, you made a fortune from an animation company. As long as you set foot in a certain industry, a certain industry will cause a storm. I am now a little worried whether I brought the devil into the house."

He is of course a joke, but maybe it is also Xu Rui's plan. Who knows if Xu Rui will also set up his own game console company after the successful production of the game and sell his own game console.

"Haha, don’t worry, I don’t have the energy to tinker with the console platform market anymore. It’s my biggest wish to be able to make games that make players happy~lightnovelpub.net~ Xu Rui is the truth. He is not interested in getting a new host for the time being. First, he invested too much and was thankless. Second, the current host platform is also developing very well, and there is no need to force intervention.

"Speaking of which, I can curiously ask, which IP game does Hatsune Games plan to make?"

Seeing that the discussion was almost complete, Li Zhen interrupted and asked.

"No, I do not intend to make the existing IP into a console game, at least not for the time being."

Xu Rui answered without even thinking about it.

"You mean... the new IP?"

Li Zhen was really frightened. The first time Hatsune Games set foot in a console game, he had to do it himself, and he didn't plan to rely on the popularity of the old IP. He no longer knew whether this was arrogance or self-confidence.

"Yes, Mr. Li, I am going to make a movie-like game."

Xu Rui said mysteriously.
