"Mr. Brandon, I heard that you are ready to submit your resignation application to Nisso Entertainment?" Zhou Dongsheng said straight to the point with a smile.
After all, there is no language barrier, there is no way to chat if you want, and there are some cultural differences, so it is better to go straight to the topic.
"Yes Zhou, after receiving Lu's email, I could no longer resist the idea of making a pure battle royale game. After all, Niso Entertainment does not pay attention to the battle royale mode of "h1z1"."
Brandon shrugged helplessly.
"Believe me Brandon, losing you will be Nisso Entertainment's biggest loss. Let's work together to create a pure battle royale game. This game will definitely be popular all over the world." After Zhou Dongsheng finished boasting, he added
One sentence.
"When translating, you must translate accurately, and don't let my meaning be compromised." Li Jiana and Lu Sifang smiled helplessly and conveyed Zhou Dongsheng's meaning.
"Of course Zhou, I believe you, otherwise I wouldn't have come all the way here. I love to demolish that! demolish that CPV!" Brandon smiled and gave a thumbs up.
Obviously this foreigner has figured out how to play Wealth Code.
After setting the tone of cooperation, Zhou Dongsheng changed the topic, "The pure battle royale game I envision is like this..." Zhou Dongsheng began to talk.
Although I don’t know what the early planning draft of “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds” looked like, but the mature game mode will not be inferior to the draft.
Despite this, the gameplay of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" was born out of "h1z1" and was created by Brandon himself. The gameplay is also very similar.
Zhou Dongsheng's description is, at best, some improvements based on the original ones. It is not a big change. Just like Dota and LoL, it can be summed up as a three-lane and wild area, and a duel between five people.
"Of course, in addition to the gameplay, if we want this game to be as popular as League of Legends, a ranking mechanism is naturally essential. When we have enough players, we can also introduce profit points such as gun skins.
."
"At the same time, by following the example of League of Legends and setting up an e-sports system, with 20 teams competing in one game, and the competition of tactics and technology, the enjoyment of the game will definitely not be any worse than that of MOBA games. After all, gunfights are men's battlefield."
After translating, Brandon occasionally used modal words such as "I am buying a karma" and "Goose girl 嘤", and looked at Zhou Dongsheng with eyes full of sympathy.
I originally thought that Zhou Dongsheng was just an angel investor, but I never expected that he had such a deep understanding of the battle royale game and that his ideas on operations and mechanisms were also very mature.
Obviously the game is not yet accurate, but Zhou Dongsheng said it as if what they are about to make is an e-sports game that will definitely become popular all over the world.
"That's incredible Zhou, are you really not a professional game planner?" Brandon said with a look of amazement.
"As you can see, of course I am not, but I am an experienced player, and I have also dabbled in battle royale games." Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile. Anyway, it was just two words, "fooling."
"But Zhou, you know that to achieve such a game effect, you need an excellent team and a lot of funds. Can I ask how much money you are considering investing in research and development?"
Brandon hesitated and asked a very practical question. After all, what he said was false. The amount of money invested can better prove Zhou Dongsheng's sincerity and determination.
Zhou Dongsheng held out a finger calmly, and Brandon frowned, "One million US dollars? Or ten million? If it's ten million, that's enough."
"Oh, is that so? I originally prepared 100 million U.S. dollars, but I didn't expect that Mr. Brandon only needs 10 million U.S. dollars. How about I double it and give it to you? Let's keep improving."
Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile, in fact, Zhou Dongsheng did not know the development cost and time of the game "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".
Therefore, he went to great lengths to prepare sufficient funds. After all, the money-making ability of this game was once comparable to that of League of Legends, but it was only later that operations and plug-ins declined.
This time, if the game is reborn, will the ending be the same? Maybe we can adopt a "free to play" strategy from the beginning, and then sell skins after gaining popularity.
It’s time to decide whether to start in the overseas market or the domestic market after the game is released.
However, it is still far away to consider this now. Brandon in front of him was a little shocked by Zhou Dongsheng's wealth.
"One hundred million US dollars is too exaggerated. This is already the production cost of a top AAA game in the industry! It is too wasteful to use it to make a battle royale game."
Although as a game producer, it is also the ultimate dream to produce a top AAA masterpiece with an investment of over 100 million, but for Brandon, it is obviously not the right opportunity right now.
"But after all, we need to build a company and team from scratch. If we want to develop a pure battle royale game, Brandon alone can't do it."
Zhou Dongsheng said with a smile that this is also the focus of the project, and Zhou Dongsheng is going to let Brandon Green take the lead and let him pull together a suitable team.
"Zhou, there is no problem that Daole cannot solve. I know many experts in the industry. I can invite them to come to our company, as long as the treatment is better." Brandon said confidently.
"That's perfect, my friend Brandon, I can't wait to play this pure battle royale game." Zhou Dongsheng laughed.
"My friend, go through the resignation procedures as soon as possible, and wish us a happy cooperation in advance. I don't drink, so I will serve you with tea." Zhou Dongsheng picked up the tea cup.
"The tea is very good, I like it!" Brandon said casually.
"By the way, why don't we give our game a suitable name first." Brandon took a sip of tea and said.
"Since it's a battle royale game, let's call it PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. I think this name is perfect. And for the final winner, we should also give him a unique reward slogan."
"Good luck, how about eating chicken tonight?" When Zhou Dongsheng mentioned the name, he remembered this unique slogan of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".
Don't underestimate the power of this sentence. After all, this is the key to the spread of this game, and even the game is called "eating chicken". This subtle power is the most powerful.
"Wow? It's a line from "Blackjack". I didn't expect you Zhou to actually understand this. Fortunately, you are not a game producer, otherwise I'm afraid I would be unemployed." Brandon said a foreigner's humor.
At this point, this matter has been finalized. What is next is a long period of preparation and research and development work. Zhou Dongsheng is still looking forward to it.
In the following time, Zhou Dongsheng naturally arranged an authentic Cantonese meal for Brandon, a foreigner, in Chen Yuhang's restaurant, and Brandon was full of praise for the meal.
After eating and drinking, Brandon also patted his chest and said that he would go back and complete the resignation procedures and immediately come over to join Zhou Dongsheng and start building a team at the same time.
In this regard, Zhou Dongsheng could only wait for the good news, since there was no rush for it anyway.
At this time, Zhou Dongsheng received an unexpected call from Huang Zheng.
"What's wrong, Mr. Huang? Do you have any good news to tell me?" Zhou Dongsheng joked with a smile.
"Of course it's good news..." Huang Zheng's hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone.
