After the game project was established, Liu Huaxing continued to prepare for his new game project. It is a very wise choice to enter the game market with the goal of mobile games in the future, especially in the past two years with the rapid popularization of smart phones among young people, the first excellent mobile game will surely become a cash cow in the market.

Of course, considering the current habits of mobile phone users, it is best to use the form of free games plus krypton gold in the mall, and the content of krypton gold...mainly weapon skins and character skins.

Others in the studio, including Hao Qian, were not very sure about Liu Huaxing's decision, but they couldn't imagine how much players would be willing to spend to make themselves look better, even if the skin didn't even have any attributes.

It can be seen from various competitive games and mobile games in the future, including LOL, King of Glory, Fifth Personality and even CF, that these games rely on skins to make profits, although most of the game skins do not even have attributes. But players will spend a lot of money to get it, so there is no need to worry about profitability.

What's more, free games can also rely on advertising to make money. As long as the game is fun, profit is not a problem at all.

From the "flaws" of the previous game, Liu Huaxing once again felt the importance of the "details" of the game.

The praise of the game is basically because the details of the game are good enough. Conversely, the game is not the best because of the lack of details in the three aspects of graphics, sound effects and BGM. As long as it is improved this time, it will be fine. Of course, the most important thing to pay attention to is the "harmony" issue.

After all, China is a harmonious country. Anything stained with red is bloody, and anyone who kisses or records a leg is pornography. We must pay attention to this aspect, and everything that can be harmonious is harmonious. So after thinking about it again and again, Liu Huaxing plans to adopt the animation style of Plants vs. Zombies that is biased towards the Q version. The best choice is the style of "Fifth Personality".

Although it is cute, it is also dark. At the same time, it is absolutely impossible to be harmonious, and it can also attract players of more ages and female players to join. But what can really retain players is the gameplay of the game, so how to enrich the gameplay is very important. Here, Liu Huaxing has retained a mechanism in their studio's game "Tomorrowland": the random story mode.

The system AI randomly arranges various disasters, such as storms, zombie tides, plagues, and epidemics to increase the difficulty of survival in survivor camps, forcing players to search for different materials according to different disasters, such as digging flood embankments, collecting ammunition, finding Food and medicine, and then arranging related materials in different copies can improve the game's durability.

With the basis of writing scripts, it is not a big deal for Liu Huaxing to do game planning. After all, a script is written with hundreds of thousands of words. A game planning with tens of thousands of words is not a problem at all, but it takes a certain amount of time to think about it. As far as the balance and game details of all aspects of the game are concerned, it is enough to deal with it a little every day and gradually improve it.

But as the game plan is slowly completed, they will also start preparing to recruit people.

As for the job of recruiting, Liu Huaxing asked other partners to handle it, posted recruitment information on various job search websites and the human resources department, waited for everyone to submit their resumes, and then prepared for interviews. But in this way, they also need to prepare a studio. It is impossible to let the employees of the studio work at home by themselves, so Liu Huaxing and Yang Xiaoxiao went out to look at the place this day.

"Xing Xing, do I have my own office?" Yang Xiaoxiao happily asked with a smile while holding Liu Huaxing's arm, Liu Huaxing raised his eyebrows, and lightly poked her on the forehead, "You are an accountant, what do you want an office for? "

"Isn't that your secretary? When you're free, you don't want your little secretary to serve you..." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled shyly, Liu Huaxing couldn't help laughing, and kissed her little hand: "Look again, maybe I will arrange an office for myself, isn't my office your office?"

"Hey... how many people do you plan to recruit in the studio?" Yang Xiaoxiao asked with a smile.

Liu Huaxing made an estimate. Based on the workload of the previous "Tomorrowland" game, he thinks that there are about eight to ten programmers. It is enough to recruit another five or six people, and then there are four artists, four people from the finance department, and two people from the operation department...

Counting the entire studio, there should be around 20 people. Since the subtitles and music will be produced in the later stage of the game, there is no need to rush to recruit them now. You can wait until the production of the game is almost done before recruiting, or simply outsource to The subtitle group and the music room, after all, these two departments do not have many tasks and are not that important, so there is no need to keep them for a long time.

Liu Huaxing estimated that based on the number of 20 people, the salary of the employees is calculated according to the standard of Beichang City, and about 100,000 yuan is needed every month just to pay the salary.

In addition to renting a studio that is enough for twenty people to work, if it is spacious enough, it will probably require an office building of about 150 to 200 square meters, with four to five offices. And the monthly rent for an office of this size is about 20,000 yuan, plus the scattered expenses, the cost of operating the studio is conservatively 150,000 yuan per month.

"It's really tiring to run a studio by yourself..." Liu Huaxing sighed in his heart.

But he has already embarked on this path, and it is not easy to turn back now, after all, there are still people counting on him. What's more, this is also a way for him and Yang Xiaoxiao to work in the same place, so they don't have to be separated when working in the future.

"What do you think of this place?" Liu Huaxing asked while holding Yang Xiaoxiao's little face. Yang Xiaoxiao looked around, the office building was well decorated, and there were also desks and chairs inside, as long as the computer and personal items were placed You can start working.

"It's okay, but is the floor too high?" Yang Xiaoxiao pondered.

"But the vision is good, isn't it?" Liu Huaxing patted her little head.

"Then you can rent here if you like." Yang Xiaoxiao said with a smile, "Anyway, I'm satisfied with you here."

"Don't rush to make a decision, let's look at other things." Liu Huaxing said with a smile.

In the end, Liu Huaxing rented the roof of an office building. Although it is the top floor of the 18th floor, it may be a bit inconvenient to go up and down, but this office will come with a rooftop. There is nothing on the roof at the moment, but maybe we can plant some flowers and plants here in the future. When you are tired, you can also come to the roof to breathe.

He rented this entire floor, which is almost 180 square meters, consisting of two small offices, a large office and a common room. The common room is somewhat similar to a small living room. In addition to the sofa, there are refrigerators, water dispensers, coffee machines, and microwave ovens. The large office is about 60 square meters. Programmers and artists usually work here.

The two small offices are only a dozen square meters, one of which is for the four people in the financial department to carry out activities, and the other is for their partners to hold meetings. Liu Huaxing didn't leave a private office for himself and Yang Xiaoxiao, because he is the "boss" here after all, and he doesn't have to stay here when he has nothing to do.

However, because there are ready-made desks, chairs and microwave ovens inside, the rent per square meter is 100, which is almost 20,000 a month. In terms of area, it is not particularly large, but the working environment is really good.

The good news is that the studio currently has 2.5 million funds, plus the 2 million funds invested by Hao Qian in the name of her father's company, 4.5 million is completely enough for the studio to last until the next game is produced More than enough. When the new game starts to make money, new funds will naturally flow in.

But it would be too busy for Liu Huaxing to be in charge of all these things alone. Not only does he have to rent an office building, but he also needs to prepare computers for the studio, register company information with the Ministry of Commerce, check submitted resumes, etc., so these things It needs to be separated and shared by other people in the studio. This is the benefit of having a partner, and you don’t have to deal with everything yourself.

Although Wang Zhao and Zhang Chengfei are no longer involved in programming, the work of the studio is still their job, so they are not idle, helping with other people to buy computers, screening submitted resumes and so on. In terms of recruitment, Liu Huaxing is more inclined to hire fresh graduates with excellent professional standards, low salaries, and young people who are easy to communicate with.

This hastily prepared, busy with everyone in the studio, time came to May in the blink of an eye.

Taking advantage of the May Day holiday, Liu Huaxing was also planning to have a good rest at home with Yang Xiaoxiao.

"It's been a busy time." Yang Xiaoxiao leaned on the sofa to pillow his stomach, while looking at her manicure, because new nails grew out, the previous manicure was considered scrapped, and she had to go to the manicure shop again Make it up again.

"Yeah, but at least the two of us deal with it together, don't say I left you out." Liu Huaxing gently pinched her little nose and said, Yang Xiaoxiao looked up at him and smiled: "Yes, so I feel quite happy, running around with my family Xing Xing."

"So, Wuyi will accompany you well these few days." Liu Huaxing smiled while feeling her pink cheeks with the back of his hand, "If there is anything you want to eat or where you want to go, just ask. I will serve you these few days Well done."

"Then..." Yang Xiaoxiao turned around on him, from lying down to lying on his chest, "I want to eat mapo tofu."

"Oh, she is such a girl who is easy to satisfy." Liu Huaxing sighed with some distress, "Is there any more?"

"No more." Yang Xiaoxiao smiled cheerfully, sat up from the sofa, "I'll go with you!"

After getting up, the little girl happily followed him to go to the kitchen, but she only took two steps, and because of too much movement, she accidentally kicked her foot to the edge of the coffee table. At that time Yang Xiaoxiao exclaimed, then squatted down covering her foot, and let out a shrill hum. Liu Huaxing quickly sat down with her in his arms, holding the foot she kicked.

"Oh, be careful..." Liu Huaxing said distressedly, helped her take off her shoes and socks, and tightly held the toe she had knocked on. Yang Xiaoxiao burst into tears in pain, and said angrily and wronged: "It's all the fault of this coffee table! If it were round, I wouldn't have kicked it! We shouldn't have bought this square coffee table in the first place!"

"Well, yes, that's right." Liu Huaxing nodded while suppressing a smile, rubbing her little feet.

But the fact is that Yang Xiaoxiao was also the one who wanted to buy this coffee table. Liu Huaxing is not particularly concerned about the furniture at home, as long as it is convenient to use and not particularly ugly in appearance, so Yang Xiaoxiao picks everything in the house.

Yang Xiaoxiao seemed to know what he was thinking, she stared at him with wide and beautiful eyes and asked, "Are you thinking that I wanted to buy this tea table at the beginning? Now it's hard to say?"

"Do you know what I'm thinking?" Liu Huaxing smiled, lowered his head and kissed her feet: "I was thinking, your little feet are so white and tender, so cute, I want to take a bite."

"Hmph..." Yang Xiaoxiao squinted her eyes and looked at him suspiciously. Liu Huaxing lowered her head to check her toes, and nodded: "Well, there is no injury, toes and nails are intact. Fortunately, the weather is cold The shoes and socks are separated, so be careful in summer? It would be bad if such a beautiful little foot is damaged."

"Got it..." Yang Xiaoxiao pouted and muttered, then opened her arms, "I want to hug..."

"Okay, you little fairy..." Liu Huaxing hugged her with a smile, "Let's go, I'll make you mapo tofu."

Yang Xiaoxiao frantically followed him to the kitchen, circling around him.

In fact, during this period of time, Yang Xiaoxiao's own cooking skills have improved to a level that is quite rare in Liu Huaxing's eyes. In terms of cooking techniques, Yang Xiaoxiao is actually comparable to him, it's just that the little girl has some foreign cooking techniques. She is not very familiar with the process, but as long as she tries more and learns more, she is completely at the level of a Michelin-level chef.

Liu Huaxing was thinking about whether he should occasionally teach his little strawberry some more complicated foreign dishes, such as Wellington steak, so that he would have no problem even if he was not working in Wandao. Since Liu Huaxing showed his skills last time, Wandao has no one to find fault with him. Now Wandao has completely completed the decoration and is now recruiting a new chef.

In order not to affect the business of the store, it took a lot of time to open up the walls on both sides, so the completion of the decoration was later than expected. Now that new chefs, waiters, etc. have all been recruited, the next step is training. When the May Day holiday is over, Liu Huaxing will also go to the restaurant to tutor them in their training.

This training is not a culinary teaching, and all elite chefs are recruited. The purpose of the training is to tell these new chefs how the current restaurant back kitchen works, and let them adapt quickly. Of course, Liu Huaxing is not specifically in charge of training, but just to give a demonstration to everyone. The real training is for the more experienced chefs in the restaurant.

"Little Strawberry, pass me the pepper." Liu Huaxing rolled up his sleeves and smiled.
