The idea originally proposed by reporter Miles was inspired by Yuki.
But she never expected that Director Gu could use such a small thread to pull out a huge web and weave it into a complete game!
No wonder he was so excited that day!
This brain is moving too fast!
Yuki is numb.
Turning around to look at Sato, he found that Sato-senpai had the same expression as him.
After all, they were the most direct participants in this easter egg, so they felt the deepest shock.
Even, according to Director Gu, if this "Escape" is successful, Miles will also become the key to carry the personalized label of Golden Wind and be inserted into their future horror games!
Extraordinary idea!
Next, Gu Sheng also briefly described the plan so that everyone could understand it, and distributed the plan to each person in charge.
"...That's basically the overview of the game. Do you have any questions?"
Gu Sheng said and looked around at everyone.
The project proposal meeting has been held here, and it is basically coming to an end.
After listening to the introduction of the project, everyone was full of confidence, saying that there was no problem, and they were ready to destroy Comella!
Only Sato opened his mouth, but hesitated to speak.
now!
The developer is confirmed! The project is confirmed! The benchmark game is confirmed!
But Director Gu has been slow to say anything about the budget.
As an experienced game planner, Sato is very sensitive to budget issues!
Because the planning department is a department that “gets paid to do things”.
Most of the time, their job is to weigh the relationship between 'budget cost' and 'effect presentation'.
After all, game plans are words, and games are built based on images.
How to perfectly transform text into pictures and operable games within a limited budget, so as to achieve the best presentation of the game as much as possible, is what their planning team needs to do.
but now!
Gu Sheng was the only one who missed the budget!
This surprised Sato.
Because in his opinion, Gu Sheng, as an experienced and creative game designer, should not leave such an important link behind.
What surprised him even more was.
It’s not just Gu Sheng!
Jiang Yun, his partner, immediate boss, and leader of the planning team of the project department, was also indifferent, as if he had not thought of the "budget" thing at all!
This... this is a bit too unprofessional, right?
Or...have they all forgotten?
no!
Sato frowned secretly.
He cannot forget when others forget. Since he has joined Golden Wind, he must consider everything for the company. It is his duty to remind the director of such a critical link!
"that……"
Sato raised his hand:
"Director, did you forget to mention the budget for our "Escape"?"
Sato felt that his reminder was crucial.
After all, the budget is of great importance. As soon as you open your mouth, everyone will suddenly realize and express their approval and approval for your careful thinking.
However!
As soon as these words came out, the whole conference room was stunned!
Then, everyone laughed!
Laughed!
What does it mean to laugh?!
Sato was a little confused when he heard the good-natured laughter in the conference room!
Moreover, not only everyone laughed, but even the director laughed!
As if there is no need to mention this matter at all!
"This this……"
Sato even got a little hairy from laughing:
"Is there anything...funny about this?"
"No, hahaha,"
Jiang Yun reached out and patted him, who looked confused:
"I mean, in other gaming companies, it wouldn't be funny."
After listening to Jiang Yun's words, Sato Neng was stunned:
"So...our Golden Wind...do we have any special cost budget plan?"
"certainly,"
Lu Bian on the other side said:
"Golden Wind's cost budget plan just doesn't have a plan."
Now!
Sato is completely down!
Even Yuki next to me was a little stupid:
"Uh...what do you mean there is no plan?"
"literal meaning,"
Gu Sheng saw that the two newcomers looked confused. Apparently they didn't understand Gold Wind's heroic cost investment method, so he said:
"Let's put it this way, how much do you think it will cost to develop our "Escape" on Yiyoux2?"
this……
"Thirty million? Fifty million?"
Yuki was not a professional after all, so he turned to look at Sato.
"Far more than that,"
Sato shook his head:
"The development cost of Silent Hill PT is 2.8 million knives, which is approximately 20 million,"
"Although in the development of the ontology, they can still continue to use the engine development results of the Phoenix engine and PT,"
"But considering Camella's quick-fix strategy, they will definitely use a lot of manpower and outsourcing, and the total development cost will be around 1,500-2,000 knives, which is about 100-140 million,"
"And if we compare it to Silent Hill... the cost should be at least 60-80 million yuan."
Say it.
Sato looked at Gu Sheng: "Director, what do you think?"
Gu Sheng fell into deep thought: "One hundred million...isn't enough?"
"Look, first of all, we are going to log in to Yiyu x2. The most iconic feature of Yiyu x2 is full-sensory assistance. If we want to achieve full-sensory assistance, we must work hard on full-sensory technology.
, this is a big expense,”
Gu Sheng began to count on Sato's fingers, just as little Nezha said to him back then:
"The second is manpower. Now our company's project department only has so many people. To develop such a project without manpower, a large number of outsourcers must be used, and the price of the outsourced team is definitely higher than that of the company's own employees. Yes, after all, the outsourced team does not receive the welfare guarantees, bonuses, dividends, etc. of the game company, so the price will naturally be higher, which is a big expense."
"The last thing is time. According to Mr. Shen's instructions, we are going to release it together with Silent Hill, but the problem is that we don't know when Silent Hill will be released, so we must seize the time and try our best to complete the development before Comela. , and in this way, whether it is the price of outsourced personnel or the overtime pay within our company, it is another expense."
hiss--
Listening to the director's words, Sato's frown deepened.
yes.
You have to protect both quality and time, both of which are money.
Although the overall salary level of the game industry in China is about 10%-15% lower than that of Neon.
But if you want to make up for the gap between Shang and Camera, you have to at least be on par with Silent Hill, which is 100 million to 150 million.
Thinking of this, Sato couldn't help but frown and looked at Gu Sheng: "So..."
Then Gu Sheng spread his hands:
"So, to sum up the above-"
"Just look at the flowers, too lazy to count,"
"Anyway, it's impossible for this game to completely wipe out the company. Besides, it's not like we haven't done this before,"
"Just play your game, don't worry about money."
ah?!
Sato almost couldn't breathe!
Look at the flowers!
What the hell do you mean looking at flowers!
original!
He thought that Gu Sheng calculated all these things for him to tell him that this project was difficult and the budget was limited, so he needed to save some money!
result!
You told me "I'm too lazy to count and just look at the flowers"?!
What the hell kind of budget is this?
Which game company's budget is "looking at the expenses"?!
Seeing Sato's surprised look, he heard roars of laughter in the conference room, and the atmosphere was suddenly filled with joy!
"Okay Sato,"
Seeing Sato's shocked and unbelievable look, Jiang Yun was better, so he patted him to indicate that he shouldn't be so surprised:
"Golden Wind never pays attention to budget,"
"Mr. Shen's consistent purpose is to make the game as good and refined as possible within the company's financial capabilities,"
"after all,"
"We are a gaming company."
One word!
Sato only felt his scalp numb!
[We are a game company]
How long has it been since he felt this way?
A pure game company, a game company that always puts game quality first.
Even, for the sake of game quality, they can completely relax their budget!
Shen Miaomiao!
What kind of president is this!
Underneath the seemingly young appearance, there are ardent ideals and deep trust in everyone!
No wonder!
No wonder Golden Wind is able to launch so many works that refresh the perception of the gaming industry and create milestones one after another!
No wonder the Golden Wind team, although not large, has such strong cohesion and enthusiasm!
No wonder Golden Wind can break out of SamGu, such a top supernova!
turn out to be!
All of this is because of Mr. Shen!
She is the one who truly loves games, this industry, and this art!
so!
Under her control, the Golden Wind can attract such elite soldiers and like-minded people!
"Swish to death..."
Sato was enlightened and nodded slowly:
"Si Guoyi..."
It seems!
Joining Golden Wind is probably the best decision he has ever made in his life!
In an instant!
Sato's ideal flame, which was almost extinguished in Camera, has been rekindled!
once Upon a time!
He is also passionate about games, he was once an idealist, and he also regards games as art!
And now!
The blood is boiling again, and the broad stage has been opened for him!
Sato-san——!!!
Sato roared in his heart!
Now, it’s time to be loyal to Mingzhu Miaomiaosang——!!!
"I understand!"
Think of this!
Sato's eyes became sharper than ever before!
Smart Sato, use all your firepower!
And Gu Sheng is striking while the iron is hot!
"Well then! Now, I declare -"
“The Escape Project,”
“Project establishment!!!”
start!
…
that's all!
Silent Hill from Neon Comora!
And escape from the golden wind of China!
In the silence between each other, they started working almost simultaneously.
What Comella wants to do is to delay as much time as possible, so that the popularity of PT can continue for a while longer, and try not to say anything if possible.
What Golden Wind wants to do here is to develop it secretly, and try not to let Comella notice their upcoming ambush, so as to prevent Comella from getting in the way.
As a result, the two sides quietly launched an arms race in this strange atmosphere.
but!
Although both sides are tight-lipped and avoid talking about Silent Hill.
but!
Players can’t wait any longer!
In the blink of an eye, the Dongjin Game Festival has concluded for almost a week!
There are calls for a Silent Hill production on the Internet, and they are getting louder and louder than ever!
And there are waves of questions and doubts about when the current work will be developed!
'Strange, why hasn't the cooperative development of Silent Hill been officially announced yet?'
‘That’s right, it’s been so long’
'I heard that the two parties originally planned to announce the conclusion of the cooperation and the start of development on the last day of the Dongjin Game Festival, but now the Game Festival is about to close for a week...'
'Isn't it because the two parties are having a falling out?'
‘It stands to reason that it shouldn’t be, PT is so popular, there is no possibility of the two parties breaking up’
'Could it be that Golden Wind has other works to develop? The project has been put on hold?'
‘Don’t be ridiculous, brother, you might as well guess that Camellia kicked Sam out because of his lust for him.’
‘So what’s going on? Why haven’t we announced the joint development yet?’
‘Come out and explain K Club @KOMINA’
‘Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji I am the King of Ji Ji @ Gu Sheng Sam’
‘…’
For a time, speculations from all sides were rampant!
And as everyone knows!
Paper cannot contain fire!
On the third day when all kinds of discussions and speculations are rampant!
A piece of news detonated in the horror game circle!
At first, this message was just an ordinary blog post by a player in the #SilentHell# topic circle on social media:
[According to reliable sources, Komina has now begun to independently develop "Silent Hill", and the chief director has become Tsuna Yamamoto. Yes, Sam was kicked off by Komina. The reason is that the IP of Silent Hill is too popular and K Club is not willing to do so.
Share with Golden Wind. It is precisely because of this that two executives who once served as the main planner and main artist in the PT project have now switched to Golden Wind.]
original!
This blog post is not eye-catching among the discussions, and the number of likes is not too high.
Because during this period of time, there have been countless uncles who have sworn like this, and it is difficult to tell whether they are true or false!
but!
Something magical happened.
Just an hour after this blog post was posted!
I don’t know if it was a slippery hand or if it was intentional!
Tetsuya Moritani, who was the managing director of Gamera Games at the time, liked this blog post!
Although it was canceled after just a minute!
but!
It was also intercepted by the media with good intentions!
What’s even more outrageous is that the time Moriya Tetsuya liked it was in the morning!
At this time, it happens to be the broadcast time of the super popular anchor Pewdiepee on the other side of the ocean, with 89 million fans and one of the top anchors in the world!
"What——?!!!"
The spread of the Internet is so fast that pew received this message immediately!
And after carefully reading the report three times!
I saw pew was stunned for five seconds!
Immediately afterwards, he grabbed the phone and called an internal manager of Comela whom he knew far away in Neon.
Now, he only needs to confirm one thing - whether Sato and Yuki, the two mainstays who once participated in PT production, have really jumped to Golden Wind.
The friend on the other end of the phone who had gone through the voice changer process, after a brief silence, said: "Yes."
silence!
A long silence!
pew silence.
The barrage in the live broadcast room also fell silent!
until!
A colorful barrage slowly floated onto the screen——
【Fxxk KOMINA】
