Chapter 5 Machine Arrival
"Hey, it's really not easy to work as a star!" After filming, Xie Changhua sat on a chair and complained to Robin beside him. Even his boss, his hands were bruised and blue after being taken care of, let alone the actors.
Having said that, I really feel for those beautiful female stars.
Robin smiled proudly: "I told you not to shoot action scenes by yourself a long time ago. You are doing it on your own. When you were shooting the love scenes, you smiled so sweetly every day. Now you have made up for it!"
Xie Changhua rolled his eyes at him: "Luo Bing, I want you to praise me. Why are you so blind?"
"Do you still need me to praise you? Someone will care about you when you go home!" Luo Bing shook his head.
"Hmph, I won't tell you anymore. By the way, when will the venue be ready?"
Because the venue approved by the government was not very convenient, Xie Changhua had to shoot the drag racing scene in the middle of the night, which could save a lot of costs. At that time, the streets would be completely blocked at night, and the streets would be filled with his own people.
"We have to arrange it after Sunday. It's not cost-effective on weekend nights. Just one scene like this costs hundreds of thousands!" he said with some distress.
"Don't feel bad. The hundreds of thousands now after the release will be worth millions at the box office. You will definitely make money!"
While the two were discussing, Chen Xi came to the set: "Brother Changhua, the machine has been here for a long time. Do you want to come over now and have a look? If there is no problem, I will start taking action tomorrow!"
"We're here, okay, I'll go back and take a look with you." Xie Changhua nodded.
"Apeng, I'll leave this to you, I'll go do something!" He turned around and said after giving the instructions.
"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Luo Bing waved his hand.
After walking out of the set, Chen Xi started talking more: "Brother Hua, don't tell me, this game is so addictive that I can't move my butt off once I sit down."
"That's of course. When did I lie to you? When the time comes, little brother, please be careful and don't let others pirate it so easily!"
"Don't worry, I have specially installed cameras. If anyone steals anything in my premises, I will kill him or her." Chen Xi cursed with a grin.
…
"Left, left, run to the left!"
"Oops, here we go again!"
"Fuck, he's dead again. Hey, Adong, why are you taking my side to eat? We agreed that one person would be responsible for half of it. Why are you always taking my side? Look, I was caught to death again!"
As soon as I walked into the game room, I heard a quarrel.
Adong held a cigarette in his mouth, exhaled, and said confidently: "What are you doing, you are in our line of work? Of course, the more capable people eat, the more you can play without fighting or grabbing, you might as well play the game played by the woman next to you.
, and besides, I always keep my word, if you don’t agree, just keep throwing in your coins, little rookie!”
"Just invest, wait until you die, we have gone through the first level, Ah Cai, please lend me a few coins, I have used up my limit today." Archi said kindly.
"Boss, I don't have it either. Today I paid dozens of yuan, go and ask Ah Dao." Ah Cai cried bitterly.
The people watching around me immediately started shouting, and almost all of them came to watch because they had no money.
Due to Xie Changhua's large investment, there have been several versions of the Pac-Man game before it was launched. There are single-player gameplay, two-player harmonious cooperative Pac-Man gameplay, and the third version is for fighting. After a certain time,
, if the score difference is greater than a range, one of them will stay for one minute. It is the first choice for some people who like to show off their battles. There are two levels of consumption in playing games with and without interaction.
If given more time, props could still be made, but Xie Changhua believes that it is better to make them into other games step by step, so that several IPs can be made. In order to adapt to the gameplay in Europe and the United States, Xie Changhua also made a North American pirated version of the food.
In Miss Beanman's game, the controlling protagonist is made into a female character to better earn money from women.
"Brother Hua, you saw that even us men are playing so crazy, let alone those girls." Chen Xi saw that there were many people surrounding each machine and said with a smile.
Xie Changhua said with a smile: "Haha, train them well, don't waste their youth doing anything serious, play games, don't get into fights, let them learn to provoke some people, and play the fighting version."
"No problem, don't worry, Brother Hua, I will definitely train them well!" Chen Xi nodded immediately.
"By the way, Brother Hua, are you interested in playing a few games? We'll look at the claw machine later!" He threw away the cigarette butt and said.
Xie Changhua smiled at him: "Ah Xi, you want to play with me!"
"Hey, Brother Hua, I know you're better than me in everything except fighting, but I've been playing this game for a long time, and you can't beat me!"
"Really? Then let's have a few!"
Chen Xi grinned: "Brother Hua, don't say I bully you, I'll give you 10 coins!"
"Xi, please clear a seat so Brother Hua and I can play some!" He immediately drove away a group of people.
After hearing this, Axi immediately rushed in and chased people away: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, let Big Brother and Brother Hua come!"
…
Ten minutes later, Chen Xi stood up while slapping the machine and cursing, and chased away the people around him: "I won't play anymore, I won't play any more. What kind of crappy game is this? You can only be chased and beaten, but you can't fight back. Brother Hua."
, let’s go see the claw machine.”
"Hey, it's so lonely, Ah Xi, you still have to practice hard. Let's play together when we have time!" Xie Changhua said proudly.
"Let's talk about it!" He responded feebly and led Xie Changhua to the back room, where there were several people from the Japanese company helping to debug the machine.
He pointed to a standalone one and said: "Brother Hua, this one is for you to film. You can catch 4 out of 10 times. This is really amazing. On average, you can catch one out of 20 times."
This thing is more profitable than an arcade machine. If you’re not careful, your money will be gone.”
"No need for you to introduce me, I know more than you!"
The dolls in the machine are all fluffy zodiac signs, each with big eyes. Xie Changhua specially ordered his people to design them. If the business is good, make more of them. If the business is not good, then exchange them for prizes.
After Xie Changhua said a few words to the accompanying translator, the translator immediately started to act. After a while, someone came out and invited the two of them to come to the machine to demonstrate.
"Brother Hua, what are they going to do?" Chen Xi looked confused.
Xie Changhua explained: "Oh, this is a BUG we deliberately left when we were making the machine. We can increase the chance of catching the doll through some techniques, but it requires very high skills. I specially asked Nakamura to train him and bring it over. Not every
It works every time.”
"What, you deliberately left a bug to give people something?"
"Of course, Ah Xi, the start of this kind of business depends entirely on people's gambling mentality. If we put a pack of cigarettes or other valuables, they will attract people if they see a profit, but if they lose too much, some people will stop.
, so we deliberately left BUG."
"When I promote it like this in the movie, some people will come to learn if they think they can take advantage. Then we will make a sure profit. If more people learn, we will publicize it and they will follow to take advantage."
There are more people, and they think they have a chance to make money from us, but in fact we did it on purpose, and we are the big winners!"
Xie Changhua said earnestly: "So don't be unable to afford it when the time comes. Just give him a warning and don't let him make too much. The rest is up to you!"
