Restart the Gaming Era

Lao Xie was driving the speed car, and Jia Jia was the co-pilot.

Looking at the familiar building of Guangyi Huyu from a distance, Lao Xie was still a little emotional.

"I didn't expect that this time I came here in such a capacity."

After hearing this nonsense, Jia Jia was still a little confused, but quickly realized: "What identity? Oh, by the way, many people in our studio have jumped out of Light Wing Interactive Entertainment before."

Xie Jin's current position should be said to be the CEO of Tianji Studio, and most people outside should call him "Mr. Xie". However, most of the members of the studio came from Guangyi Interactive Entertainment, so everyone still likes to call them "Director Xie" or "Old Xie", and Jia Jia also called him "Director Xie".

Lao Xie and Zhu Yang both came from Guangyi Mutual Entertainment, and Jia Jia has been working with them for so long, so he already knew about it.

"If the bell came, it would be more emotional, but he seems to have ignored this matter, and he was inflated." Lao Xie said jokingly.

Zhong Ming really didn't think much of a conference of this level.

It is said to be a mobile game developers conference, but in fact, all the mobile game developers and designers in Huaxia District are invited, not to mention that Zhong Ming's interest in mobile games has long since ceased to be, and most of the mobile games are directly thrown to Tianji Studio That's fine, and I don't even bother to come to this kind of meeting.

You can't learn anything from this kind of conference, and it's a waste of time to come.

But for Tianji Studio and Lao Xie, it is better to participate if they can participate. After all, they do not have such a high level as Zhong Ming, and secondly, new games can also be promoted by the way.

In the past, Lao Xie's flying car could fly directly to the parking lot above the building, but after leaving the job, he no longer has the authority of internal employees, so he can only enter through the main entrance to register.

Lightwing Interactive Entertainment is the organizer of this mobile game developer conference, and the venue is naturally inside Lightwing Interactive Entertainment.

This place, Lao Xie has been here, and Zhong Ming has also been here, it is the large venue inside Guangyi Interactive Entertainment, where the experience exchange and sharing meeting of "Learning the Sea is Boundless" was held before.

Lao Xie walked from the main entrance to the hall, and couldn't help but sigh: "Nothing has changed."

Isn't there nothing changed? It's been less than half a year since he left the job. What changes can there be?

When Lao Xie came to the front desk, the front desk recognized him.

"Thank you, Supervisor? Hey, why are you back?"

The girl at the front desk knew Lao Xie, but then realized that he seemed to have left the job.

Lao Xie smiled: "Oh, I'm here to participate in the Game Developers Conference, this is an invitation letter."

Lao Xie clicked on the bracelet a few times, and the girl at the front desk smiled after checking the invitation letter: "The venue is on the 17th floor, so I won't give you directions, you know better than me."

It was the first time for Jia Jia to come to this place. Looking at the lavish building and beautiful hall of Guangyi Huyu, she was a little envious.

"This building is well built," Jia Jia said.

He joined Shimmer Studio directly after graduation, and then transferred to Tianji Studio. Ever since I started working, I have been in the building of Huanyu Daguan.

Although Huanyu Daguan is also a high-end office building, the place of Tianji Studio is rented by itself after all, unlike Guangyi Interactive Entertainment, whose own company occupies an entire building.

Moreover, Huanyu Daguan is for various companies, including financial companies and other industries. The decoration is relatively low-key, while the lobby of Weiguang Studio is full of Internet companies, especially the avant-garde atmosphere of the game industry.

"Stylish? That's it. Maybe I've been working here for so long and I'm used to it." Lao Xie smiled, "But it's useless. Although Guangyi Huyu is not small in size, it is pure The profit is really not much. What's more, how many years has Guangyi Interactive Entertainment been a big company? Weiguang Studio and Tianji Studio have developed to their current level in just over a year, and Zhong Ming is amazing."

"But I still envy this kind of building." Jia Jia said.

Lao Xie said: "Maybe after a while, Tianji Studio can afford such a building. The elevator is here."

It was working hours, so few people took the elevator, but a lot of visitors arrived one after another, probably designers or internal personnel of some other mobile game companies.

There were many people in the elevator, but Jia Jia didn't recognize them, and neither did Lao Xie.

Although Lao Xie also has some friends in the industry, but his level was not enough before. He said that Potian was a very marginal executive in Guangyi Interactive Entertainment. How could he have the opportunity to meet the star producers and executives of various mobile game companies.

Those who can come to this conference, although they are a group of people that Zhong Ming doesn't like, but in the mobile game circle in Huaxia District, they are all famous people.

Soon, we're at the venue.

Lao Xie is also familiar with the road, and walked to the venue after getting out of the elevator, but the elevator door next to him also opened, and this time there was an acquaintance.

"Hey, old Liu!"

Lao Xie took a look, isn't this Liu Yuxin?

These two are old acquaintances, Liu Yuxin was also taken aback for a moment.

"Old Xie? Didn't you...resign?" Liu Xinyu didn't turn the corner for a moment.

Lao Xie looked behind Liu Yuxin again, and there were several supervisors, all of whom were acquaintances.

These are all people under Mr. Lu, and they were familiar with each other before, but now they are very surprised to meet them.

"Old Xie, didn't you jump to start a business by yourself? How is it now?" A supervisor next to Liu Yuxin asked.

"How about a start-up company, let's make do with it." Lao Xie exchanged a few words casually, and entered the venue with everyone.

They knew that Lao Xie had switched jobs, but they didn't know exactly where he jumped.

Because when Lao Xie left, Tianji Studio hadn’t written a word yet. It was just started to be formed. Later, "Dawn Era" became popular, but it has only been popular for three or four months now. Many people know this game and know it. Tianji Studio, but I didn't know that it was Lao Xie who did it.

And to be honest, the relationship between Lao Xie and this group of people is just an ordinary colleague, and the relationship is not that close. After leaving the company, he didn't have much contact with him, and of course he wouldn't tell them that he was working on "Dawn Era".

This time, Guangyi Mutual Entertainment hosted the event with people from the operation department. After they contacted Tianji Studio, they found Lao Xie and knew that he was the producer of Tianji Studio, but these executives definitely didn't know.

Liu Yuxin looked at this old Xie secretly, and found that he hadn't changed much since he left the job, he still kept his thermos in his hand, and he never forgot to drink hot water wherever he went.

The clothes are still so poor, and today such an important occasion is also very casual, and I feel that Lao Xie is still a bit haggard.

It’s true to be haggard. After all, Lao Xie is now in charge of the entire Tianji Studio. In the past, there were only a dozen people under him, and he was working on puzzle game projects, which was much easier; now he is working on "Dawn Era" and A game like "City Defense War" is inevitably tiring.

Moreover, seeing Jia Jia following behind Lao Xie, Liu Yuxin felt even more comfortable.

Those who can bring this kind of occasion must be more important people in the studio, most of them are the chief designer.

But the chief designer is young enough, no matter how you look at it, he looks like he just graduated.

Moreover, Jia Jia had never been to such a big scene, and his every move was a little timid. Liu Yuxin, who is so good at observing words and expressions, immediately realized that Jia Jia should be a newcomer who has not been in the industry for a long time.

"Lao Xie's starting a business is hard enough. Bringing a new chief designer, you have to worry to death. But he deserves it. He is doing well in the company. Mr. Lu is so kind to him, and there is no problem with taking care of him all the time. You have to find the fault yourself accept." Liu Yuxin gloated silently in his heart.

Originally, he was a little jealous when he heard that Lao Xie started his business, but now seeing that Lao Xie is not as good as himself, he feels more at ease.

After entering the venue, Liu Yuxin found a seat with other executives, while Lao Xie found his name tag in the first two rows, and a relatively side seat in the second row.

Seeing that Lao Xie sat down, Liu Yuxin happened to be in the third row, behind Lao Xie.

This developer conference has been held for two days, and each day is divided into two halves, the morning and the afternoon. The main content is that the producers of various successful projects come to the stage to share the successful experience of the game, or introduce their own new games. During the period, there will also be some art and program speakers, but considering that most of the venues are design Teacher, so the content of the explanation is still based on the design aspect.

This conference also invited many producers from other companies, some of whom had arranged speeches, and some had not, but all of them had assigned seats, which were the first two rows in the most central area.

The designers of Lightwing Interactive Entertainment must also be able to listen at will, and sit in any position, but the first two rows are vacant. Since Lao Xie was invited to come, he must be sitting in the first two rows. Liu Yuxin is very clear about this.

But sitting in the first two rows is also treated differently from person to person. Some are gold medal producers of big companies, even Yu Zong of Light Wing Interactive Entertainment is very polite to them; while some are completely here to make soy sauce.

Obviously, in Liu Yuxin's opinion, Lao Xie is probably the kind who comes to make soy sauce.

Before the meeting started, Lao Xie turned his head slightly, intending to catch up with Liu Yuxin.

"How is Director Liu recently? Have you started a new project?" Lao Xie asked.

Liu Yuxin had a smug look on his face: "Well, a new project has started. It's called "Mecha Tide", and the closed beta will start next month. The current data...is not bad. And now Mr. Lu is quite serious about this project. , A lot of publicity funds have been allocated, and it is estimated that the first month of this game will reach seven to eight million yuan, no problem."

"Director Liu is indeed amazing. It has improved a lot compared to "Mecha Age". Congratulations." Director Xie said.

Liu Yuxin hurriedly waved his hand: "Oh, luck, luck. "Mecha Tide" is still in the company's credit. If I left Guangyi Huyu, I would never be able to make this kind of game. But having said that, Thank you, what project are you doing now?"

"The current project? "City Guardian"." Lao Xie said.

""City Guardian"? What kind of game is that?" Liu Yuxin was a little confused, he had never heard of it.

"It's not online yet, but it's coming soon." Old Xie said.

Liu Yuxin was very happy: "Is there a demo? What about the beta version? Play it for me, and I can help you check it out and give me your opinions."

"Okay." Lao Xie handed over his bracelet, "That's it."

Liu Yuxin took the bracelet, only to find that Lao Xie's bracelet turned out to be the most expensive style at present, with a price of around 15,000. Because the wristband is usually hidden under the sleeve, Liu Yuxin has not noticed it all the time, and only discovered it now when he picked it up.

The wristband is quite clean. Apart from a bunch of commonly used apps, there are only two games, one is "Dawn Era" and the other is "City Guardian".

"Dawn Era" is a bracelet game that was very popular some time ago. In Liu Yuxin's opinion, it is normal for Lao Xie to experience it, so I don't think there is anything wrong.

After clicking on "City Guardian", Liu Yuxin started to play.

The conference just started, and the first person to go up was a mobile game designer from Xinghua Interactive Entertainment, who began to tell everyone about the successful experience of his project.

Liu Yuxin felt a little drowsy, and slowly turned his attention to "City Guardian".

The first designer spoke for less than an hour, there was warm applause from the audience, and there was a break.

Old Xie turned his head: "How is it?"

Liu Yuxin's expression was a little bit surprised, but the complacency from before was still there.

"Very good, thank you, this game is quite finished, and the art resources... didn't cost much money, did they? Which outsourcer did you find?" Liu Yuxin asked.

"Outsourcing? I didn't find an outsourcer, and I did it with my own art. How about it, isn't our art team good?" Old Xie said with a smile.

"Okay, pretty good." Liu Yuxin said, "But the Q version of the art is really easier to make, and you guys are very smart in making the Q version. Is there any other way to play this game?"

"Others? No more, what you see is the final form after going online." Lao Xie said.

"That's it? Lao Xie, I'm not talking about you, you... you're not very good at it." Liu Yuxin said earnestly, "There's too little content! But you can't blame you for that. All you made before were puzzle games. I can’t figure out the current situation of mobile games.”

"Uh... Then tell me in detail?" Old Xie said.

Liu Yuxin immediately opened up the chatterbox. Obviously, the success of "Mecha Tide" has inspired him very much, and he is eager to share his successful experience with Lao Xie.

"What kind of game is popular now? Heavy game! I see "Dawn Era" on your bracelet, have you played it too? Why is this game popular? It's because of seriousness! There are so many activities! You can see that there are only GVG activities in it There are four of them, and the players play hard every day, once the stickiness increases, the online time and consumption of the players will naturally increase!"

""Mecha Tide" was inspired by this. I deliberately made the game a lot more serious, and the feedback from the players is really good. But the "City Guardian" you made, the gameplay is too simple, that's it After typing a picture back and forth, I will get tired of playing after a while.”

Lao Xie wanted to scratch his head when he heard it: "It's not Lao Liu, wait a minute, "Dawn Era" is not the same as this game at all, "Dawn Era" is..."

"I know it's not a way, but now players like heavy games, which is a big trend. Let me tell you, I have been studying it since the launch of "Dawn Age", and my understanding must be deeper than yours. This game is indeed a representative It’s not good to be dissatisfied with the mainstream tastes of the current players. So I suggest that you better add more activities to this game. It’s good to copy a few from "Dawn Era". Just launch the game as it is now, definitely not ah."

Liu Yuxin enthusiastically gave old Xie a popular science.

Lao Xie scratched his bald head helplessly: "That's fine, I'll think about it..."

At this time, an on-site staff member came to Lao Xie: "Mr. Xie, your speech will be next, and you should get ready to go on stage."

"Oh, okay." Lao Xie took the bracelet from Liu Yuxin, tidied up his clothes, and walked to the stage.

Liu Yuxin was stunned.

what's going on?

Seeing Lao Xie walk to the front of the stage, the title of this speech was displayed on the huge projection screen at the front of the venue: Sharing the successful experience of "Dawn Era" - Xie Jin, CEO of Tianji Studio.

"Wait, wait a minute..."

Liu Yuxin blinked his eyes, thinking he was wrong.

What's the situation?

CEO of Tianji Studio? ?
