To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 1268 Simple Cloze
In the afternoon, in the meeting room of Skyfire Studio.

After Zhou Muyan struggled repeatedly, he still decided to choose Sun Xilai to help Min Jingchao.

Originally, I wanted to screen by grasping Mr. Pei's design intentions, but it turned out that everyone handed in zero marks in unison.

That being the case, you can only choose a chief designer who you trust the most and who has rich experience in FPS games.

After choosing and choosing, I am still the most satisfied with Sun Xi.

At this time, the two of them looked at Min Jingchao eagerly, wanting to speak but then stopping, stopping to speak but then wanting.

President Pei has already left, so the only hope rests on Min Jingchao...

Zhou Muyan and Sun Xi also knew very well that Min Jingchao was the chief designer of GOG, so he should still be strong in terms of business ability.

That is to say, even if he left Mr. Pei, the game he designed had some accidents, and it shouldn't be too ugly.

But in this game, it's not just enough to be passable.

Three top companies in the industry cooperate, and if the resulting game has a mediocre response, it is basically equivalent to a failure.

With President Pei's broad requirements, can Min Jingchao design a game that does not disgrace Tenda's brand?That's pretty dubious.

Zhou Muyan said very thoughtfully: "Brother Min, it doesn't matter if you don't have an idea for the design plan now. You can think about it for a few more days. There is no rush to design such a thing, and it is easy to make mistakes in the rush."

"Once the design deviates, it will be difficult to make up for it later."

"Do you have any needs in life? If you are not used to the food here, I can ask the master chef in the company canteen to cook more dishes you like."

Zhou Muyan had to take care of Min Jingchao.

On the one hand, it was because the working environment in Tengda was top-notch, and he might not be able to adapt here; on the other hand, he was afraid that he would be in a bad mood, which would affect the design of the plan.

Min Jingchao smiled and said: "Oh, it's okay, thank you for your care. Don't worry about the design. My design basically has a prototype, and I just need to simply improve it."

Sun Xi was shocked: "Huh? So fast?!"

Although it's just a big frame, it's hard to come up with a big frame quickly!

Because this big frame determines the basic fun and core concept of the game, like the foundation of a building, although this thing can be fooled, the consequences of fooling it will be very serious.

Figured it out so quickly?

Really don't need to think about it anymore?
Both Sun Xi and Zhou Muyan were a little confused.

If it weren't for the trust in Mr. Pei and Min Jingchao, they would almost have thought that they were here to form a group to fool around and cheat on research funds.

Seeing the shocked expressions of the two, Min Jingchao was a little surprised: "What? Is this speed fast?"

"Oh, maybe each company's work process is different, and you don't know the situation on Tenda's side."

"I didn't design it from scratch, but I solved it based on the hints given by Mr. Pei."

"This is not a composition with independent propositions, but a cloze with certain rules."

"As long as you master the method and method, it will be completed very quickly."

"My speed is at the mid-lower level among the chief designers of Tenda. After all, I have been with GOG all the year round, and I don't have many opportunities to participate in other types of games."

Zhou Muyan and Sun Xi were still confused.

Min Jingchao gave an explanation, but after the explanation, the two became more suspicious.

You call this cloze?

Cloze should give out most of the articles, only need to fill in a few words, right?

Boss Pei is completely against it. He just gave a few words and asked you to write the whole article!
What's more, all the words given are ambiguous and not critical.
Your ability is simply against the sky, okay?
Moreover, you told us that such a heaven-defying ability is standard among the chief designers of Tenda?Are you still in the middle and lower ranks?

This Nima...

The talent reserve of Tenda's designers can be described as terrifying...

Zhou Muyan coughed twice: "Then, Brother Min, why don't you talk about the specific time and plan now, I'm so curious!"

Sun Xi also nodded: "Yeah, how could you deduce a design plan from Mr. Pei's broad conditions? This is simply a miracle!"

Min Jingchao smiled slightly: "Well, those who are difficult will not, and those who meet are not difficult. Mr. Pei has been training our ability in this area. I have been working in Tengda for so long. Even a piece of wood should be enlightened."

"Then let me briefly talk about how to design "Bullet Scar 2" in Mr. Pei's mind."

"Do you still remember what Boss Pei said at the meeting and the questions I asked afterward?"

Zhou Muyan and Sun Xiqi nodded together.

These are very simple questions, not esoteric, and they are all documented.

Min Jingchao said: "It is enough to have these requirements."

"Boss Pei has already explained the feel of the game and the charging model."

"To put it simply, Mr. Pei will never repeat his own design. The routine used in "Sea Fortress" will definitely not be used again."

"Moreover, the current market situation has changed compared with before."

""Sea Fortress" has cultivated and absorbed a group of fans of FPS games, and the entire player base has expanded compared to before. Moreover, "Sea Fortress" has been in operation for two or three years, and many players are already tired of playing it."

"If you copy "Sea Fortress" again at this time, you will definitely not be in a hurry. The gameplay is not attractive, even if you change the skin, can the pirated version beat the genuine one? That's impossible."

"Therefore, there must be changes and breakthroughs."

"Everyone says that Tenda Games is a gold-lettered brand, and players will buy the game when it comes out, but this gold-lettered brand is also based on continuous innovation, constant change, and always brings surprises to players."

"If Tengda releases a game one day, but it can't bring people a sense of freshness, then this golden signboard may soon be rusted."

Zhou Muyan nodded, expressing his sincere admiration.

The reason is very simple, everyone understands.

Not innovating and being complacent is tantamount to sailing against the current, and if you don’t advance, you will retreat.

But sometimes knowing this truth does not mean being able to practice it.If you can do it if you know it, then most of the problems in this world will not be problems.

In reality, innovation often means risk, and risk means failure.

Advocating the spirit of innovation is not difficult, but the difficulty is that a company always pursues innovation regardless of the cost, and all the ideas from the boss to the employees are highly unified in pursuing innovation.

Min Jingchao continued: "Boss Pei said that the skin of the game must be completely replaced. He also said that it is low-key and realistic, and it does not conflict with uniqueness."

"In fact, combined with the previous requirements for feel, we can guide that this is a very clear hint, and it can even be said to be explicit!"

Zhou Muyan and Sun Xi looked confused: "Huh?"

Where is it clearly stated?
Unique means that it has the cool feeling of being made into a fire unicorn, but it is low-key and realistic, how can it be unique?

It is also a gun that exists in reality. Realism means that the more similar it is to the gun in reality, the better. How can it be unique?

Min Jingchao shook her head slightly, as if she couldn't understand their slowness: "It's very simple, change the packaging!"

"Who said that FPS games with a modern background must be made? Isn't the future background good?"

"Think about it carefully, the path of modern firearms is actually no longer feasible. There are "Anti-Terrorism Plan", "Bullet Scars" and "Sea Fortress" ahead, and you can hit them no matter how you go."

"But if it is made into a future sci-fi style, can't it be realistic and cool?"

"President Pei's realism doesn't mean the realism of modern firearms, but it can also be the realism of future firearms."

"Make those high-tech firearms in the future more simple and realistic, and don't add so many weird special effects, it will look more realistic."

"And in this way, the problem of hand feeling is also solved."

"The reason why the feel of "Bullet Scars" is not popular is because the gun is the same as "Anti-Terrorism Project", but the feel is slightly different."

"This kind of subtle difference makes players feel a little awkward, so they don't rely on both sides."

"But what about future guns? Just change the packaging of these weapons, and players won't have this awkward feeling. They won't think 'AK47 doesn't feel like this', they will just think 'this gun feels like this' Similar to AK47', or 'This is the future version of AK47'."

"Now that technology has advanced, isn't it normal for the feel of the gun to change a little?"

Zhou Muyan and Sun Xi were both stunned by Min Jingchao's explanation.

That's what Mr. Pei meant?
They didn't think in this direction at all before, mainly because their thinking was limited.

As soon as Mr. Pei talked about making "Bullet Scar 2", they followed the train of thought of "Bullet Scar".

Just like the previous game was based on the theme of the Three Kingdoms, the sequel must be considered in the context of the Three Kingdoms. If it suddenly becomes a high-tech Three Kingdoms, is it plausible?
But after hearing Min Jingchao's explanation, the two felt that it made sense.

Yes, a game with a sci-fi background can indeed perfectly solve the above-mentioned problems!
Sun Xi asked puzzledly, "But, isn't it enough for Mr. Pei to just say to make a sci-fi background? Why do you have to go around in circles?"

Min Jingchao shook her head slightly: "Say it directly? Then why don't you just tell you the whole design plan?"

"This is what Mr. Pei is testing, to see if you can jump out of the limited rules and regulations and come up with the most perfect solution."

"If you said at the beginning, make a sci-fi background, would you still delve into why you want to make a sci-fi background? Would you still think about interrelated issues such as painting style and feel?"

Zhou Muyan hurriedly asked: "What about the plot and game mode? Could it be that Mr. Pei has already given the corresponding answer, but we didn't understand it?"

Min Jingchao nodded very firmly: "Of course!"

"However, Mr. Pei gave different degrees of freedom for these two questions: the former is clear and the scope is relatively narrow; the latter is vague and the scope is relatively broad."

"Mr. Zhou, you can actually try to interpret it."

"Do you still remember what Mr. Pei said when I asked Mr. Pei if he wanted to do a plot?"

Sun Xi immediately replied: "I remember, Mr. Pei said that he would not make a plot, and the funds could be used in other places, such as the map can be developed."

Min Jingchao nodded: "That's right."

"In Mr. Pei's discourse system, those that clearly point out the direction are basically more important."

"Then what do you think is the specific method of 'making a map' as Mr. Pei said?"

Sun Xi thought for a while: "Combining the sci-fi background summarized before...does it mean that we need to make a few more maps for the battle mode? The sci-fi style is stronger and the structure is more complicated?"

Min Jingchao asked: "No matter what kind of background it is, this kind of battle map must be done. Can it cost more money to make a sci-fi background? Is there any essential difference from making a modern warfare background?"

Sun Xi was at a loss for words for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said, "...No."

For art, it is all about painting. Although drawing sci-fi backgrounds requires some original content, the workload is not much higher than that of ordinary modern war backgrounds, so it is impossible to spend a lot of budget on this alone.

Min Jingchao continued to ask: "So how can we spend more money on the map?"

Zhou Muyan thought about it carefully, and said with some uncertainty: "...to make a map big enough?"

If you make a small map, change the style, or increase the number a little, it is not enough to spend a lot of money.

The only way is to make one or several super-large maps, which will cost more money.

But Zhou Muyan said this with hesitation, because he felt that this idea seemed unreliable.

Why make a huge map?
There must be a corresponding gameplay to support it?
Min Jingchao nodded: "Yes, this is it!"

"Of course I'm not sure, so I asked Mr. Pei about the gameplay. Mr. Pei said, cut off all the ghost mode, biochemical mode, and blasting mode."

"Then I asked if it is possible to create other models, and Mr. Pei said yes."

"After summing it up in this way, the answer is very clear: "Bullet Scar 2" that Mr. Pei hopes is a shooting game with a futuristic sci-fi background. It is different from the gameplay of mainstream FPS games today. It requires a large number of players to be placed on a large map. Let’s start a new battle mode.”

Sun Xi had a surprised expression all over his face.

He never imagined that with only this information, he could actually figure out the big frame of "Bullet Scar 2", and it made people feel quite reasonable...

"However, Mr. Pei didn't say what this new game mode is, right? Can't reason it out?" Zhou Muyan said hesitantly.

Because Min Jingchao interpreted too many things from Mr. Pei's words, which made him quite uncertain about the question.

Min Jingchao nodded: "Not really, because Mr. Pei's purpose is to let me design freely."

"If the previous part is all about filling in the blanks, then the latter part is the propositional composition."

"Because cloze is no longer a big problem for Tenda's designers, Mr. Pei has already started to consciously increase the difficulty, giving full autonomy to designers to design their own models."

"I have a preliminary idea now, but I still need to focus on it. It will take three to five days to implement this idea as detailed as possible."

　In the past two days of the new year, I have been a little bit salty, and there are many things to do. By the way, I wish you a happy new year again~
