Chapter 515 The Implicit Friendship Month Between President Pei and Big Brother Ruan
At the same time, Tenda Games.
Min Jingchao browsed the forum as usual, asking for free ideas from players.
It has to be said that the players’ wisdom is infinite.
For example, the idea of the traveler Bao Xu, Min Jingchao took one look and thought it was very good. The hero has rich mechanics and an appropriate image. The most important thing is that it fits Bao Xu's character very well.
So I accepted it on the spot.
However, good ideas like this don’t come around very often.
After all, there are only a few players who are proficient in game mechanics and design, and most of the creative ideas have more or less problems.
Min Jingchao's recent daily work is to sift through the massive creative ideas provided by players, find suitable ones, and hand them over to the design team for improvement, and then enter the production process.
During the screening process, Min Jingchao also had some hidden rules.
Designers from the game department do not participate in this event.
For example, Min Jingchao has designed several heroes himself, but he does not take the profits. Because Mr. Pei has paid him enough salary for his work, and will also give bonuses based on the game's reputation, investment and other factors, he feels that he has not earned two
The truth about money.
I'm sorry to compete with players for 5% of the profits.
Secondly, when choosing heroes, Min Jingchao will try to choose different creators.
Unless a certain hero is obviously much better than other heroes and creativity must be utilized, Min Jingchao will consider adopting two hero plans from the same designer.
Because this activity itself is open to all, the total number of gog heroes is limited, and there are only so many rewards. If too many rewards are taken by the same account, the motivation of other people to participate will be greatly weakened, which is not conducive to maintaining a healthy ecology of the entire community.
Of course, we must also comprehensively consider factors such as whether the hero mechanism is consistent with the game mechanism, whether the hero's characteristics are obvious, whether it overlaps with the existing hero's positioning, and whether it conflicts with other factors.
Min Jingchao was scrolling and scrolling when he suddenly saw the likes data of a post that seemed pretty good.
He subconsciously clicked on it and found that it was a design post with pure hero mechanics.
The first skill of this hero is a short-range damage skill, which can knock the enemy away after three uses. The second skill is...
"Huh? This game mechanism looks interesting."
Min Jingchao thought about it carefully and felt that the positioning of this hero was very clear and the mechanism itself was quite entertaining. As long as it was paired with a suitable packaging, it should be quite popular.
But the question is, what kind of packaging should we give it?
If this enthusiastic player revealed a little about the general story background of this hero, there would at least be a general direction, but now there is no entry point except that he is a hero who is more of a warrior and more of an assassin.
Min Jingchao clicked on this player's profile, hoping to find some inspiration.
After all, the idea of this hero comes from this player. It would be better if the image design could be slightly related to this player.
"Huh? All Tenda games are there? This is a hardcore Tenda game player."
"Huh? It's so early to buy "Lonely Desert Highway"? This is a super hardcore gamer."
"..."
"Isn't this Mr. Pei himself?!"
Min Jingchao didn't know it until he checked it. When he checked it, he was shocked to find that this was Mr. Pei's own account!
He confirmed again and again that yes, it was Mr. Pei!
But then, Min Jingchao fell into confusion.
If Mr. Pei wants to be a new hero, why don't you just tell me and it's over?
Why do you still post it on the forum, so much trouble?
If the players don’t know the product well and don’t like it, wouldn’t the design be in vain?
Could it be that Mr. Pei is very confident in his design and feels that even if it is mixed in among the many plans of players, it will definitely stand out?
Well, judging from the results, this is the case.
But it seems that this reason alone is not sufficient.
Min Jingchao began to think divergently again. After all, "thinking more" is an essential quality for every Tengda employee.
Why is there no specific image designed for this hero?
Can’t Mr. Pei design a specific image?
Definitely not!
That was Mr. Pei’s intention.
Min Jingchao thought about it over and over and finally concluded that Mr. Pei had two intentions for doing this.
The first one is that Mr. Pei left the hero's packaging empty, which seemed to be a test of the gog R&D team's ability, allowing the R&D team to speculate on its intentions and complete the hero's appearance and story background.
Secondly, in view of the fierce competition between gog and ioi, and the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, Mr. Pei did not want to be biased. Therefore, he did not give explicit instructions, but used this implicit method.
In other words, Mr. Pei doesn't want others to know that he participated in the design of gog, but just helps secretly.
This made Min Jingchao feel warm in her heart. Sure enough, the gog project is Mr. Pei's biological son!
As for the 5% income, it is obviously impossible for Mr. Pei to value it. What Mr. Pei cares about most is the title "Designer of xxx".
"Therefore, the fact that this hero was designed by Mr. Pei should be hidden and completely considered based on the design of an ordinary player."
"Then the next question is, what kind of packaging should we give this hero?"
"There is already a hero based on Mr. Pei, so this hero obviously needs to be designed based on someone else."
"Who is it based on?"
"Mr. Pei must be thinking about it, but he is too embarrassed to write it out."
Min Jingchao thought carefully and found that this hero seemed to have good synergy with Modeste.
Because Modeste's second skill is a road sealing + knockback effect, and the knockback itself is actually a state of floating + displacement, in theory it should be possible to use this new hero's ultimate move.
That is to say, Modeste directly goes around and uses his second skill to seal the road + repel the enemy's key hero. The new hero takes over, then Modeste opens up to absorb the damage, and the new hero cooperates with him to start crazy output.
Well, it’s a perfect match!
And who is Mr. Pei’s perfect partner in reality?
Obviously it’s Mr. Ruan Guangjian!
Moreover, this hero's skills are quite consistent with the characteristics of Ruan Guangjian.
The artist's abstract image should be light and elegant. At the same time, although Ruan Guangjian looks like an ordinary person, he has been influenced by art for many years, and his every move has the characteristics of an ancient literati.
Thinking of this, Min Jing had an idea.
Hero name: The Poet of the Wind Ruan.
Ruan is an ancient Chinese calligrapher and painter, and his weapon is an oversized brush.
The first skill is to use the brush to write wild cursive. After three times, you can use the wild cursive brush to summon a strong wind, causing enemies on the path to be knocked away.
The second skill is to quickly draw a landscape painting surrounded by clouds and mist in front of you, blocking flying skills.
The third skill is to walk on the wind, which can quickly shuttle between enemies.
The ultimate skill is Illusion, which is used to cast Illusion on enemies that are in a flying state. At the same time, Ruan Yufeng walks directly to the target from thousands of miles away, fully suppressing the target and causing damage.
After Min Jingchao matched the hero's packaging and skills, he checked them carefully again and found that they matched perfectly.
"Could it be said that this hero was originally tailor-made for Mr. Ruan?"
"It's just that Mr. Pei is embarrassed to show it so obviously?"
"Well, this possibility is very high. After all, in order to take care of Mr. Ruan's studio, Mr. Pei also deliberately increased the amount of money paid to the outsourcing company, just to allow Mr. Ruan to make the transition as soon as possible after arriving in Jingzhou.
Get through it.”
"Ah, is the friendship between big guys always so implicit?"
Min Jingchao couldn't help but imagine how the two heroes Modeste and Ruan would fight side by side in the Canyon of the Gods in the future.
Just thinking about it makes my blood boil!
Min Jingchao immediately began to sort out the request list for the original paintings of the hero Ruan, preparing to send them to Ruan Guangjian as soon as possible.
Since it is Mr. Ruan’s hero, of course the appearance of this hero was designed by Mr. Ruan himself.
After Traveler Bao Xu comes online, the next hero will be Ruan, the Calligrapher of the Wind!
Min Jingchao's work efficiency was very high. In less than two hours, a hero demand list for the Wind Mok was ready.
He immediately sent this demand list to Ruan Guangjian.
…
In the Halo Studio, Ruan Guangjian continued to be busy while drinking coffee.
Suddenly, the chat software icon in the lower right corner of the computer flashed, and a window to accept the file popped up: Wind Mohist·Ruan-Hero Requirement Form.xlsx.
"Um?"
Ruan Guangjian couldn't help but be surprised that the hero design came out so quickly.
Was it last Thursday or last Friday? Traveler Bao Xu’s needs have just begun to be put on the schedule. Is there a new hero so soon?
Ruan Guangjian received the demand form, opened it and was stunned.
My surname is Ruan, and I also like calligraphy and painting...
He somewhat suspected that this hero was based on himself, but he also felt that this idea seemed a bit too narcissistic.
At this moment, Min Jingchao sent a message.
"Brother Ruan, yes, this is the hero designed by Mr. Pei based on you. I have added a little more details."
"However, Mr. Pei seems to be keeping a low profile and doesn't want others to know that this is his handiwork, so you don't want to be too obvious. Just know it in your heart."
Ruan Guangjian couldn't help but be surprised. When I went to buy coffee just now, I met Mr. Pei.
In other words, President Pei had already designed a hero based on me before that?
But when he was visiting the Internet cafe, Mr. Pei had no intention of mentioning it...
Well, it really fits Mr. Pei’s reserved character.
The last time Halo Studio moved to Jingzhou, Mr. Pei was cold on the outside and hot on the inside. He didn't say anything, but in fact he quietly raised the outsourcing price to help Halo Studio tide over the difficulties.
This time it was more subtle, and he quietly created an exclusive hero for me in the game.
Ruan Guangjian couldn't help but smile, and replied: "Don't worry, I will definitely design the original painting to be very handsome!"
Min Jingchao added: "Then, the first skin will be a linked skin with Modeste, and the story background of the two heroes will also be set as best friends, right?"
Ruan Guangjian smiled knowingly: "Of course, I can't ask for it."
