Chapter 498 Down to earth

With the official opening of the studio, they also entered the interview process. Although their studio already has two game foundations, it is still an unknown studio in China, and the interviewees are basically fresh graduates. And these graduates are not planning to do some performance or learn something, but simply earn some extra money and get some work experience.

After all, their games are not very famous yet, but Liu Huaxing doesn't care, it's better to say that it's just right to use each other, and they don't need to pay too much, and they don't have to worry about when these people will resign in the future, anyway, after finishing the next game These people resign when they should resign, it doesn't matter.

Liu Huaxing participated in the interview with other partners. Liu Huaxing’s standard still depends on his character, and his programming ability can be learned and improved slowly. However, if the program at hand is half written, he suddenly resigns due to his personal reasons. Before leaving, I destroyed all the written programs, which would seriously slow down the speed of the studio.

That's why Liu Huaxing firmly opposes cooperating with those with unscrupulous intentions. This has already been learned from Qian Xiaofan. Fortunately, he is quite accurate in judging people, so after a round of screening, they basically confirmed all the internal members of the studio. The eight programmers... are of course all men. They are composed of Chen Ye, Liu Chang, Li Xuesong He and Bai Renzong led the four, and each of them took two people to be responsible for part of the game content programming.

As for the four artists, there are three girls and one boy, responsible for game modeling and illustrations, plus two members of the subtitle team, a total of fourteen people were recruited, including Yang Xiaoxiao, Li Ying, Zhou Hong and Dong Yue. There are 2 members of the finance department and 7 partners, and there are 25 people in the whole studio. There are a few more than expected, but there is room in the office.

After all, the seven partners don't have to be here anytime and anywhere, as long as two people come over every day to supervise everyone's work in rotation. In the future, members of the two operation departments will be recruited to be responsible for the game operation. As for the game music, it can be outsourced to other music studios. It doesn't have to be original, just change the existing music to another instrument and adapt it.

Therefore, on May 10th, the first day the studio officially started working, Liu Huaxing and seven partners came to the studio, looked at all the staff, and prepared to briefly explain to everyone.

"I won't tell you about dreams, aspirations, and those MLM-style brainwashing ideas. What brings us together today is pure profit." Liu Huaxing said bluntly, "In this case, I hope we can use Best way to get what we each want. You give me a game and I give you work experience and a salary..."

As he said that, Liu Huaxing shrugged his shoulders: "Of course I know that our salary may not be very high, but looking at it from another angle." Liu Huaxing looked around the studio and said with a smile: "At least our working environment is not bad, yes Right? And what I can guarantee is that there is no mandatory free overtime, and employee benefits are perfect, but it does not include referrals.”

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and Liu Huaxing continued: "Everyone is young, and it is more convenient to communicate, and you don't need to be too formal. If you have any questions, you can negotiate in time. That's it, I hope you can have a good time working in this place."

There was sparse applause, and then Liu Huaxing added: "We will have a party after get off work tonight to celebrate the official opening of the studio, and I will pay for it privately." The applause became enthusiastic at that time.

The work on the first day is relatively simple. Basically, it is to call all the members and introduce his game plan and his expectations for the game. Because it is a mobile game, it is not difficult to achieve the effect Liu Huaxing expected, but there are still some problems, that is, the performance of the mobile phone.

At present, the Apple mobile phone only stays at the iPhone 5, and there is still a relatively large gap in performance from the future, which is more obvious in domestic mobile phones. The key to the popularity of mobile games depends on whether the mobile phone can drive the game.

This requires that the optimization of the game must be done well enough, which is a challenge for programmers.

A well-optimized game can greatly reduce the capacity of the game and reduce the performance requirements of operation, but this depends entirely on the programming of the game, which needs to be continuously improved and simplified to reduce the capacity of the game and speed up the calculation method. In particular, optimization is extremely important. A well-optimized game can lower the running configuration by several notches.

This is also the reason why Liu Huaxing recruited two more programmers. On the one hand, Chen Ye and the others can have two people working together, and on the other hand, it is more efficient to work with more people.

By the time the game is made, mobile performance should improve, but it's still not enough to make the game popular. So there is a very critical question here: the best release time for the game.

In terms of mobile phone performance, it is most appropriate for this game to be released in three or four years. At that time, the performance of mobile phones will improve rapidly, and even a domestic machine worth more than 1,000 yuan can reach the performance of Apple 6. At that time, most mobile phones can run the game. And before that? It can only be released or run as a computer game first, but then there is another problem.

If you take computer games as an example, the picture quality and engine of their game are not excellent in contemporary games. How can they compete with other games? Only rely on the playability of the game, and change the style of the game.

Fortunately, in order to avoid the harmonization of the game due to bloody violence and other reasons, Liu Huaxing has decided to change the game to a Q-print style similar to that of the fifth personality, which can make up for the shortcomings of the graphics and engine.

And they can use this game to run on the computer to accumulate a certain popularity and popularity, and wait a year before releasing the mobile version to perfectly solve all the problems.

Of course, the best way is to sell the copyright of the game to other big companies after the game is produced, so that they have nothing to do. Those big companies have deep pockets, and they can invest games on mobile apps when they see fit. Liu Huaxing explained this to the people in his studio, and today is over.

Then it was almost time to get off work. Liu Huaxing invited everyone to a dinner party as he said before, and welcomed the newcomers.

But Liu Huaxing didn't choose a particularly high-end place, it was just an ordinary barbecue restaurant, where twenty people gathered around the table in the studio, and everyone talked freely.

Most of the questions the studio staff had was why their cohort of partners was so young.

At this time, Liu Huaxing can proudly tell them that he came here step by step.

Liu Huaxing has never liked to let people around him think that they can get rich overnight by buying lottery tickets. Many people think that they can do it when they see others winning lottery tickets, buying stocks and investing in stocks. Everyone only sees those who buy stocks and get rich overnight. rich, but did not notice that more people went bankrupt because of stocks. This is known as "survivor bias".

So now Liu Huaxing can tell everyone in the studio how they started from scratch from the very beginning. A group of people jointly produced their first "CSGO" DLC based on hobbies and became popular on the Internet, and then sold the game project. The money raised a second group of people to make a second game and make more money.

He can tell them that making money is down-to-earth, accumulating little by little, not opportunistic.

"The sales volume of "Tomorrowland" has already exceeded one million." Liu Huaxing smiled proudly, "If the DLC is included in this game, the current total profit has reached more than 30 million. I think it is already enough for us. It was a big success."

"Oh, it's a pity that we didn't have much vision at the beginning, and we transferred the copyright of the game for a temporary benefit." Zhang Chengfei sighed and said to the team members in front of him, "So you must have a little foresight. If I gave up the temporary benefit and chose to If I take the long view, I can now make four times more money. Man, you have to have a vision to make money."

"Fortunately, we turned back in time." Liu Huaxing teased.

Wang Zhao immediately echoed: "It's really time to turn around! Do you still remember Qian Xiaofan? Since he left our studio, I heard that he also started looking for a job, but because of his high-sightedness and low-handedness, he ran into walls and couldn't find a suitable one. In the end, he ran out of money, his girlfriend broke up with him, and now he even sold his car worth more than 200,000 yuan."

"I've also heard that it's quite a big deal." Chen Ye nodded and said, "That guy didn't have a good reputation at school, and the incident of cheating on his girlfriend behind his back was exposed several times. So Later, when he ran out of money, he was dumped by his girlfriend, to be precise, he was cheated on by his girlfriend, and then dumped again."

"Wow, is it so hot?" Yang Xiaoxiao was excited at the time, after all, she is a girl, and her nature of gossip is hard to change.

"Yeah." Chen Ye sighed, "I heard that his girlfriend went to a hotel with another man and he bumped into him, and then he questioned his girlfriend face to face, and his girlfriend simply dumped him. I think It should be a kind of revenge."

Zhou Hong whispered: "It must be on purpose, he used to cheat a lot, his girlfriend must hold a grudge."

"This can be regarded as retribution." Li Xuesong said with a smile, "Man, you still have to know how much you are. Besides, a million is not a lot. A house is a million these years. As for letting him float like that Is it? Or too little experience and no insight.”

Everyone chatted while eating, because they were either students or had to drive, so everyone didn't drink, and they dispersed after eating.

"Do you just drive this car?" Chen Ye looked at Liu Huaxing's Dongfeng Fengshen, and frowned slightly.

"What's wrong? I don't drive much." Liu Huaxing said disapprovingly.

"You have earned more than ten million, right? It would be better to buy a better car." Li Xuesong replied, "After all, he is also the founder of our studio. When I go out to meet and chat with people in the future, I will drive this car. It won't be a bit embarrassing..."

"At that time, I will take a vehicle worth hundreds of millions." Liu Huaxing joked, then blinked slyly, "The subway."

After speaking, Liu Huaxing took Yang Xiaoxiao into the car. After fastening her seat belt, Yang Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "I'm a little nervous. I'm going to work in the studio officially from tomorrow..."

"You are still students, I don't force you to work in the studio." Liu Huaxing patted her head and said, "As long as you do your job well, record the flow of funds and pay five insurances to employees One gold will do."

"But it's okay. Anyway, I'll be a junior in more than a month. There will be fewer courses, and it's normal for us to go out for internships." Yang Xiaoxiao leaned over and kissed him on the face. People are also driving away.

Liu Huaxing drove behind them, but he was also thinking about what Chen Ye and the others said. Indeed, as the founder of the studio, it seems inappropriate to use this 70,000 to 80,000 yuan car to negotiate business with others. He himself doesn't care, but he thinks that he should pay attention to the image of the studio. People cannot change the society, they have to adapt to it.

In terms of money, he is not very short now. The current sales volume of "Tomorrowland" is still increasing, and has reached more than 1.2 million sets. The income from the game continues to flow into his Zhang Huli. Liu Huaxing can get more than half of the profit here, so there should be close to 20 million in his bank account. Anyway, the money has been entering the account, and he didn't look at the specific amount.

With 20 million yuan, it feels reasonable to buy a better car. This Dongfeng can be given to relatives in my hometown. But there is no need to buy it yet, after all, the game has not been produced yet, and there is no point in discussing it with other people. And cars depreciate quickly, and it won't be too late to buy a million-dollar luxury car after their game is finished.

After returning home, as soon as Liu Huaxing opened the door, Chengzi immediately rushed over and moaned around them.

"Oh, okay, okay, I brought you meat." Yang Xiaoxiao leaned over and touched Chengzi's head and smiled.

Every time they left Chengzi a dog at home to eat, Yang Xiaoxiao would pack the meat from the leftovers and bring it back for Chengzi to eat. So Cheng Zi also developed a habit, came over to flirt with him for a while, and followed Yang Xiaoxiao to wait for the meat.

"Mabaogou..." Liu Huaxing shook his head and sighed.

"Huh? Can the kids keep urging them to eat?" Yang Xiaoxiao frowned as she looked at the orange that kept nuzzling her, "No! Yes! Yes! What should I do if I want to eat? Tell mom."

Chengzi snorted, then took two steps back and sat down, and Yang Xiaoxiao smiled with satisfaction: "Yes! So cute!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Xiaoxiao rinsed the meat in the packing box in water, rinsed off all the seasonings on it, and then put it in the orange dog bowl. Because dogs do not need to consume salt, eating salty food for a long time can cause kidney failure.

"It's really obedient." Yang Xiaoxiao squatted beside Chengzi and watched it eat while smiling, while reaching out to touch Chengzi's neck, Chengzi didn't protect the food and didn't flinch, it knew Yang Xiaoxiao wouldn't hurt it .

"My babies are very good." Liu Huaxing touched Yang Xiaoxiao's head and smiled, "Shall I take a bath first?"

"Then you throw the changed clothes into the washing machine later? My underwear needs to be washed separately." Yang Xiaoxiao reminded.

"Let me wash it for you." Liu Huaxing said with a smile, but just after getting a change of clothes, a call came on the phone. The name of the phone was "Wang Dao", which is the director of the TV series Wang Haicheng. I know that this bath is not enough.

"Little Strawberry, you should take a shower first." Liu Huaxing sighed, "I'll answer the phone."
