Number One Game Designer

Shuiran came here for the Honghu platform, with a clear purpose, which is also her style.

"Settled in the Honghu platform?" Fang Xi was a little puzzled.

"I didn't let you register?"

Shuiran called and asked to join the Honghu platform, which made Fang Xi a little confused.

After some explanations from Shuiran, Fang Xi finally understood that what Shuiran was talking about was still seeking cooperation. starter

What Shuiran likes is still the nearly 30 million users of Hongyi, and also pointed out the shortcomings of Hongyi in operation:

"Your comment system is very imperfect." This is Suiran's opinion.

"The best thing about your Honghu platform is undoubtedly the management of the community function. Players can talk about everything related to the game here. It can be said that each game is a community."

"But the management of the games inside your store is quite chaotic, am I right?"

"But it's okay to say, continue." Fang Xi put the phone by his ear, changed a comfortable position and continued to listen to the phone.

"Although your store only has some of the company's own games now, oh yes, it is said that you plan to put some of Hongyi's earliest games on it?"

There is no need to hide this, because although Hongyi has a huge number of users now, the games of other brands are still very, still 0.

On the one hand, it was because domestic independent producers changed engines midway, and on the other hand, because Hongyi’s digital platform was still a new thing, domestic independent game producers were a little nervous. The most important thing was that Fang Xi set up a review team , although the Honghu platform accepts games, Fang Xi also has a threshold. It is impossible to say that someone can directly put an image aggregate on it and sell it for money. There are also reasons why the construction period of the game is actually not short. In short, There are no games from other companies on the Honghu game platform.

But Fang Xi also has some plans for this. When the Youth Fund of the Honghu platform first started, it would review and invest in the game drafts of the players every three months. Up to now, there have been three phases, with a total of about twelve games. Calculating now, the three games of the first phase should be almost ready to go online. When the time comes to promote the three games of the first phase of the Qingmiao Fund, the producers will have a good reputation in their hearts, and they probably know what kind of games can get the platform. Favor, it will be better by then.

So for the time being, in order to fill up the game library, Fang Xi also put the GAL games that Hong Yi made when his father was leading him on the platform, at least it doesn't look so empty, and now he asked this...

"Yes, after all, although those games were made by my father, they still belong to Hongyi's games."

"Then Mr. Fang should also be interested in a batch of early games under our GAME World?"

"Oh? Tell me in detail." Fang Xi became interested when Shuiran said this.

Under Shuiran's explanation, Fang Xi also understood a little bit of the early game history in this world in the world. The country only started making games in the 1990s. It also took ten years of fighting before the domestic market solidified into the current few The appearance of a big company, and some well-made games in the early ten years that did not belong to a few big companies, now the copyright is held in the hands of the media GAME World.

Fang Xi was a little surprised: "What is your company doing with these copyrights?"

The voice of Shuiran on the phone paused, and said quietly: "The creator of the GAME world is the loser who lost to several big companies, and he is also the producer of these games."

Hearing what Shuiran said, Fang Xi suddenly understood why the GAME world has always been more friendly to new companies.

Shuiran also said that he has played this kind of "mutual investment" game with many newcomers in the game industry. If the GAME world has always been unhappy with several major companies, it is relatively clear.

Shaking his head, Fang Xi didn't bother to disturb this kind of thing, so he went straight to the point:

"I'm really interested, but if you want to use this as a threat to negotiate, I won't accept it."

"No conditions." Shuiran's voice remained steady. "Launching these is just the wish of a few veteran producers. They are very optimistic about your Youth Fund and Jade Bird Engine."

Fang Xi suddenly felt that these games were a bit heavy.

"No problem, let them rest assured."

Before the conversation ended, Shuiran seemed to mention a sentence unintentionally: "Do you think this new mode of Left 4 Dead can host a competition?"

"Yes." Fang Xi thought for a while: "But the effect may not be that good, and there are more problems to be dealt with. What, what do you want to do?"

Shuiran also does not hide: the first episode

"Some time ago, Lin Rongchang came to us to talk about future cooperation. He told me about the concept of e-sports. "Eternity" is too far away, and Battle Royale is just around the corner. We just have the resources and want to try it."

"Do it, I will greet the operation department, you don't have to worry about copyright issues."

Shuiran probably didn't expect Fang Xi to be so straightforward, "Thank you."

After hanging up the phone, Fang Xi finally felt the dawn of a new game era. I am not interested in the grievances of the older generation. I can only say that everyone has the same purpose, probably.

After July, Hongyi started a round of recruitment expansion, because there are two games that are expected to be launched this year. In the past two months, there will be more than 1,000 people. Counting the branch office in Shanghai and Xuanniao Studio in North America, there may be 1,500 people. Fang Xi feels that his burden is two points heavier, and this number of people With continuous growth, the subdivision of authority is also inevitable.

"In the future, the Beiyang City company will focus on being a research and development base, and all the content related to operations and competitions will be handed over to the branch in Haifang City. Haifang City has a very good geographical location and will be the core city of our e-sports plan in the future. "

"The European branch must also step up preparations. In the future, we will at least need three bases in China, North America, and Europe. North America is developing well now, and Su Luo's working ability is worthy of recognition."

In the conference room, Hongyi's executives were listening to Fang Xi's requirements for future work. When Fang Xi mentioned Su Luo, Chen Yu's face became tense again. Fang Xi didn't know what the relationship between the two was now.

"North American Xuanniao studio also needs to expand. After the eternal e-sports plan is officially launched, Xuanniao will take on the responsibility of Hongyi's North American branch and can no longer be a simple studio."

Su Luo couldn't come back, so he used a video conference. Su Luo, who was sitting upright on the screen, nodded to express his understanding.

"The company's existing operation department will be split. The top person in charge is still Liu Hai. The subdivision is divided into the mobile game operation department. The person in charge is Lu Qiu. The person in charge of the e-sports operation and matchmaking department is appointed by Liu Hai. Honghu Platform For the operation department, the person in charge will be designated by me after assessment, and for the overseas operation department, the person in charge will be part-time by Su Luo."

"The art department has also been restructured, changed to a content support department, and the movie CG department is also under the jurisdiction. The person in charge is tentatively named Qian Shasha, and the following is subdivided into the original painting support department, the world view architecture department, the UI beautification department and the movie CG department. The person in charge Designated by Qian Shasha."

"The remaining departments will remain unchanged for the time being, so that's it, the meeting is over."

Hongyi's reorganization meeting was sudden, but the executives were not surprised. Hongyi expanded too fast, and it was destined to constantly change and adapt. Survival of the fittest is the best rule.

After the meeting, Lu Tao approached Fang Xi.

"Eternal profit point?"

"It seems that you also think that the e-sports plan is unreliable, but it's not surprising."

"If you make a profit, how do you feel about opening the box?"
