Qi Jianhua scratched his head, feeling a little distressed.
Upon request, he also specially prepared multiple sound effects.
But after hearing this, Lin Yao felt that it was not possible, and it was quite a headache.
"Like this... snap."
Lin Yao had no choice but to use her unique skills again and imitate them verbally...
"It feels a bit like a handle installation."
"..."
But Qi Jianhua became even more confused after hearing this.
Lin Yao was a little helpless: "Go to the host product department immediately to get a host and install it to see how it feels. Install it a few times."
"All right."
Qi Jianhua nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Is this urgent?"
"It's better to hurry up and make it before the popularity of the two games wears off."
"Are we going to announce the console?"
Qi Jianhua was a little surprised.
"No, the promotional video will not be released for the time being, nor will the specific form be announced."
Lin Yao shook her head and then said with a smile: "But we can announce the logo and the title first... After all, the popularity brought by the two games "Tomb Raider" and "Battlefield" cannot be all cheap Reflecta, everyone thinks that we
I don’t want to be a host anymore, but if I suddenly come back and put a specious LOGO, I think it will attract a lot of discussion...
But forget about announcing the console directly. First, "Battlefield" and "Tomb Raider" have just been released. There is no reason to rush to announce the console and escort masterpieces to compete with themselves. In addition, players' wallets are basically empty now. I think
Players who want to buy a console have basically purchased a Reflecta console.
And the Escort masterpiece of our console is still being tested, the production process of LMU Financial Holdings has not been completely sorted out, the stock is insufficient, the e-sports festival is about to be held, and there are a lot of things at the end of the year, it is not a good time."
"……Um."
Qi Jianhua nodded slowly, and then sighed: "But it's really a pity to say that the game is so popular this time, Reflecta is really cheaper... and domestic players think that we don't make consoles anymore, maybe it's not good
It will also give Reflecta a bargain.”
"This is what needs to be done."
Lin Yao shook her head slightly: "Otherwise, just opening up European and American channels would be difficult, not to mention that there is a Japanese manufacturer that occupies 90% of the handheld market share... It is impossible to take all the benefits. This can be regarded as our investment certificate. However,
, Reflecta is not cheap, this title is just to prevent this from happening, don’t worry.”
Qi Jianhua nodded slowly when he heard this and said no more.
In fact, he didn't know what to say. After all, he was just a staff member, not an operator.
There were many things that he didn't even think about.
Lin Yao also knew this, so she didn't say anything else to him. She asked him to quickly go to the host product department to install the controller and find out how it felt before leaving.
…
"Games, consoles, e-sports festivals..."
Lin Yao hurriedly returned to her seat. As soon as she sat down, she took out a piece of paper and started writing and drawing on it.
There are still words in his mouth.
Linmu Studio is a very unique company...the business decision-maker and product leader are the same person.
That is Lin Yao.
This leads to...she is quite stressed out sometimes.
He has to consider not only game issues, but also company management issues, because the console involves LMU Financial Holdings, and she even has to consider LMU Financial Holdings issues.
But many times, Lin Yao actually doesn't even know whether she is doing the right thing...
For example, this time she decided to release the console logo during a period when "Battlefield" and "Tomb Raider" were released and the popularity was high.
Although she said that when everyone thinks that Linmu Studio does not make consoles, suddenly backing off and putting up a specious LOGO can attract a lot of discussion...
But who can predict the future?
Lin Yao couldn't do it anyway.
So after she made a decision, some doubts and entangled emotions inevitably arose.
What if I am wrong?
The decision to launch "Battlefield" and "Tomb Raider" on the Reflecta console is the same this time.
Linmu Studio cooperates with Reflecta in order to secure European and American channels and suppress Japanese manufacturer Peria.
But Lin Yao was also not sure whether she was doing the right thing or not. She made her decision based on intuition and past life experience.
Will this completely lead to the rise of Reflecta?
Will it cause unexpected situations?
If not, is there a way to get the channel?
These are all problems.
Although Lin Yao is usually vigorous and resolute.
But some things really shouldn't be joked about.
So every time after making a decision, Lin Yao would go through it again.
but.
Now that the end of the year is approaching, the number of things she needs to decide has increased dramatically.
There are more and more things that she needs to consider, and they are becoming more and more complex...
It's really tiring.
This is still under the circumstances where Mu Wanqing has to deal with personnel, finance and logistics.
Otherwise, she would probably be under even greater pressure.
Actually.
It would be much easier if Lin Yao found a professional manager and let Mu Wanqing be responsible for human resources and finance, and then let the professional manager be responsible for running the company while she was only responsible for making games.
But Lin Yao always felt that if she found a manager, the whole company would change...
So she just kept supporting herself.
After Lin Yao came back from Qi Jianhua's place, she had been sitting in her seat.
Thinking about various questions.
until……
"Lin Yao."
"Um?"
Lin Yao suddenly came back to her senses, turned to look at the girl with black stockings and glasses standing quietly beside her, smiled tiredly at her, and asked: "Miss Mu, what's wrong?"
"I originally wanted to tell you about the two new games..."
Mu Wanqing hugged the information in her arms tightly: "But suddenly I don't want to say it anymore. Let's go, let's go to dinner..."
"Ah? It's only eleven o'clock now..."
"in spite of."
Mu Wanqing put down the materials in her arms, then forcibly picked up Lin Yao, helped her put on her coat and scarf, and then forcibly led her out of the studio.
Lin Yao was stunned and could only follow her out.
Leave the warm studio and walk out of the building.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The temperature dropped sharply.
Mu Wanqing stopped at the door, walked around to Lin Yao, helped her tuck her scarf, and then picked her up again and walked to the tea restaurant where the two of them often went.
Lin Yao was sobered up by the cold wind outside. She shrank her neck, then looked at the graceful figure in front of her who was still wearing a black silk skirt in the winter, and asked with some confusion: "...What's wrong with you?
, Miss Mu.”
"I just stood next to you for a long time, but you never came back to your senses."
Mu Wanqing didn't walk very fast because she was wearing high heels: "Until I call you."
"Huh? What then?"
"You look very tired...are you thinking about the game and the console?"
"Um."
Lin Yao nodded, and then said helplessly: "I'm not sure whether my decision is right or not, so I want to think more, like this time..."
She told Mu Wanqing her worries.
The two have worked together for so long and have long since trusted each other.
Since she asked.
Then Lin Yao would not hide it from her.
"..."
After Mu Wanqing heard this, she fell silent.
"So many questions...it's really tiring."
Lin Yao shrank her neck again, a little afraid of the cold, hid her chin in her scarf, and then laughed softly: "Sometimes I even think about finding a professional manager, but I always feel that if I find a
If there are professional managers, the company will change..."
"It will indeed change the taste." Mu Wanqing was silent for a moment and gave the exact answer.
"You think so too?"
Lin Yao blinked.
"Um."
Mu Wanqing responded, then stopped because the tea restaurant had arrived.
She stopped the topic temporarily and took Lin Yao to sit down by the window. Then she sat opposite Lin Yao, looked at the girl who started to rub her hands, and continued: "Because even I can't resist the snowball rolling.
The feeling of being bigger.”
Lin Yao put down her hand and asked curiously: "Snowball?"
"Money, capital."
Mu Wanqing said expressionlessly: "If it were me, Linmu Studio might not even have a Vaporwave game platform, because online games are too profitable. After the success of "Fantasy OL", I will continue to make online games and continue to launch them."
Online games can make more money. Can any platform or stand-alone game make more money than online games? Are they sure to be successful? Are there any successful examples? No, so why take the risk? It’s not like online games don’t make money.
If the Vaporwave game platform is successful, then I will think again, why do we want to build a console? Isn’t it good now? Why take risks?
Stand-alone games are a one-time deal. The investment is high, but the income is not as good as online games. Why do you still do it?
What other Greenlight, why bother... can compare with making money by playing online games? It would be even funnier to let employees participate in the Greenlight project! It will only distract them! Just let them just play online games honestly.
Wouldn't it be better to give them more money and let them create more revenue?"
"..."
Lin Yao was stunned when she heard this, then stretched out her index finger to lightly scratch her face, and said: "Miss Mu, why do I feel that this is your true thoughts..."
"That's really what I think."
Mu Wanqing nodded solemnly: "A lot of times, if the decision-maker was not you... I would probably object every time, every decision you made before."
Lin Yao: "..."
"That's right, if you let me take full responsibility for the company's operations without interfering, it will probably be like this. I won't think about taking risks. I will only set higher KPIs for each online game project team and let them use online games.
Make more money, then use the money to make bigger online games, and then continue to make more money.
Then slowly, it is estimated that the entire company will be affected by this atmosphere. In the end, everyone’s goal is to make more money. In the end, you probably won’t be able to change this situation.”
Mu Wanqing looked at Lin Yao's round and flawless oval face with soft eyes: "So in other words, Lin Yao, it was you who pushed me forward, pushed everyone to move forward and make breakthroughs, and that's why Lin Mu Studio is today..."
That’s why Linmu Studio now has production capabilities that are comparable to or even higher than those of major overseas manufacturers in some aspects, with multi-line development, and highly praised Linmu Studio. Without you, Linmu Studio’s maximum limit would be another larger-scale Tianhu.
.
Other than that, it's nothing.
This is the consensus of the entire studio.
Don’t you know that there are risks in your decisions? Yes. Don’t I know that there are risks? I also know.
But everyone believes in you, not only that you will succeed, but also that..."
Mu Wanqing suddenly stretched out her hand, held Lin Yao's graceful oval face, looked at her, and said seriously: "Even if you fail, it is only temporary and a matter of time. You will definitely lead everyone again
Rise up and succeed again, our Lin Yao is the best!"
"..."
Lin Yao's face was held, and after hearing Mu Wanqing's words, she was stunned and a little embarrassed...
He blinked his eyes for a while, and then said: "So you mean, you don't want me to think too much and just make a decision...?"
"no."
Mu Wanqing gently rubbed Lin Yao's face: "Of course you want to, after all, Linmu Studio is your hard work, you can't joke about it, but I hope you can have less unnecessary worries, Linmu Studio is yours
, you are the master, no one can blame you, no one can say anything wrong with you. And... let me help you.
In fact, I always thought that you were a genius, and those decisions were all made by your talent... And I was worried that I would influence you, so I almost never interfered. Now I finally know, it turns out that geniuses
It also requires careful consideration…”
"How can I be a genius..."
Lin Yao was stunned. She didn't expect Mu Wanqing to have such misunderstandings about herself.
"Who are you."
Mu Wanqing shook her head very seriously: "It's just that you work harder than other geniuses. Let me help you with those problems."
"..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Lin Yao was a little dumbfounded: "Okay, then how are you going to help me? Also, don't flatter me, there are many people watching..."
Mu Wanqing was stunned when she heard this, and then slowly turned back.
Almost all the guests in the tea restaurant are looking here.
After all, the two of them, a royal sister and a young girl, are both beautiful.
And Mu Wanqing’s voice just now was a bit loud...
"..."
Mu Wanqing immediately let go of Lin Yao's face and pursed her lips slightly: "Go back and tell me, what do you want to eat?"
Lin Yao: "..."
…
after an hour.
Linmu Studio.
In the conference room.
Mu Wanqing held a stack of documents and a notebook, opened the door and walked in, then sat down next to Lin Yao.
Lin Yao looked at it curiously.
Mu Wanqing sorted out the information and then said: "In fact, under the current situation, it is best to establish a decision-making risk assessment mechanism to avoid and prevent decision-making risks. I will do this later. But this time, time is urgent, and it is obviously too late.
Yes, so let’s evaluate it with two people first.”
"Um."
Lin Yao looked away from the information, looked at Mu Wanqing's bright face, and smiled softly.
“This time we want to release the console logo during the time when Battlefield and Tomb Raider are on sale and the popularity is high, but without releasing detailed information. The purpose is to attract attention, arouse discussion, and let players continue to look forward to the game.
Right? Especially let domestic players continue to have expectations."
Mu Wanqing turned her head and looked at Lin Yao.
Lin Yao nodded.
"That risk..."
"First of all, the Japanese manufacturer Peria has a handheld brand with a market share of 90%. The reason why we have registered the game on Reflecta this time is to snipe them in the Japanese market to prevent them from causing trouble for us.
."
Lin Yao said: "But if we publish the LOGO now, it may alert them, and all efforts may be wasted."
"So you decided to only publish the logo to minimize the impact?"
"Yeah. And the second point is, this is just a LOGO. If it is announced, it may not attract the attention of players..."
"Um……"
After listening to Lin Yao's words, Mu Wanqing lowered her head and thought for a moment, then pulled out her notebook, typed out the risks Lin Yao just mentioned on the document, and then began to analyze and evaluate them.
Lin Yao did not disturb her.
Ten minutes later.
Mu Wanqing typed the last word, and then coded the words 'E-Sports Festival' at the end of the document.
"Lin Yao."
Mu Wanqing raised her head and looked at Lin Yao's pretty and round oval face again: "I have an idea."
"Um?"
"Can we do some marketing..."
Mu Wanqing hesitated for a moment and suggested: "We will only announce the LOGO, but we will not say what it is and let the players guess. However, we must do our best to enhance the presence of the iconic LOGO of the console. For example, we can display it on this year's TV series.
At the beginning of every game in the competition festival, the logo will be displayed once, no matter what the game is.
We market over and over again to deepen our memory, and during this period, the discussion will become more and more intense. When the popularity reaches its peak, we will directly announce the console..."
Lin Yao's eyes lit up, then she lowered her head slightly and began to think deeply.
Mu Wanqing continued: "As for the Japanese company Peria, don't worry. Our game has just been launched on Reflecta. Now we only announce a specious LOGO. We won't say what it is... It's probably quite confusing. Even if they guessed it,
I won’t think about handheld devices either… Of course, this will require very high confidentiality.”
"It's November now...this year's E-Sports Festival is in early January...the continued popularity of the two games...it feels feasible."
Lin Yao muttered something, then suddenly raised her head, pulled up the chair and squeezed towards Mu Wanqing, and then typed out a few lines of words on the document: "Marketing all the way, let alone overseas, according to our domestic
With its reputation, the discussion will be very high, but we still need to think about how to do it specifically..."
"Well, for example, how to display the host's logo."
"...the breakout project can be built into the map, the MOBA game can be displayed in the BP stage, and the Warcraft project is placed directly on the UI. In short, the presence is maximized."
"It can also be printed on the team members' uniforms."
"This feels a bit difficult. It involves the club... Let Nie Hui come over later and ask."
"Well, I also have an idea regarding confidentiality issues..."
"..."
In the conference room.
Mu Wanqing and Lin Yao stood next to each other and began to work together... No, they started discussing and communicating.
And the facts prove it.
Two people can indeed think more carefully than one person.
Many times, as soon as Lin Yao raised a question, Mu Wanqing would immediately give her advice.
It's really much easier.
Time passes slowly.
The two of them stayed in the conference room for nearly two hours.
The ideas are getting clearer and clearer.
Lin Yao also became more and more relaxed.
"...That's pretty much it."
finally.
Two hours later.
Lin Yao looked at the plan that had considered all aspects and breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, two people are faster.
I should have done this a long time ago!
How can a person think about it alone?
"Um."
Mu Wanqing nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's talk about Miss Mu."
"ah?"
"Your legs are so warm."
Lin Yao suddenly turned around and looked at Mu Wanqing narrowly.
Mu Wanqing was a little bit dumbfounded.
During these two hours.
The more they talked, the more relaxed they became.
At this moment, she had completely forgotten that this was a company. Lin Yao put her left hand around Mu Wanqing's waist, and the two of them were almost close to each other.
And under the table.
A pair of high heels and a pair of white shoes were placed randomly.
Lin Yao's slender and well-proportioned calves were wrapped around Mu Wanqing's calves wrapped in soft black stockings, swaying gently.
The two talked for two hours.
Lin Yao also played for two hours and had a great time.
"I guess sleeping with you will be very comfortable."
Lin Yao rested her face on Mu Wanqing's shoulder. After she finished talking about the business, she immediately relaxed and yawned: "Lin Xi is just like you, just like a thermos. It's very comfortable to sleep in your arms, but the sleeping pattern is not very good."
good."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "..."
Mu Wanqing tilted her head slightly, then suddenly turned her back and wrapped her arms around Lin Yao's slender legs wrapped in jeans, whispering: "I actually sleep very well."
"Yeah?"
Lin Yao yawned again. The two of them were close to each other. The warmth coming from Mu Wanqing's body made her feel a little sleepy.
"Um."
Mu Wanqing responded gently, then quietly raised her calf wrapped in smooth black stockings, wrapping it more tightly around Lin Yao's slender and well-proportioned thighs. She didn't know whether it was intentional or not, and gently rubbed it with her toes.
Lin Yao's white ankles between her boat socks and jeans.
Lin Yao didn't seem to feel anything.
It's just that the hand holding Mu Wanqing's slender waist was a little harder, and her round thighs were a little tighter.
"..."
Mu Wanqing squeezed towards Lin Yao and put her arms around her waist.
"Thank you." Lin Yao said suddenly.
"..." Mu Wanqing froze in action, and it took a long time to react and asked, "Why are you saying thank you?"
"It feels good to have someone I trust by my side to help share the burden..."
Lin Yao whispered, shook her legs slightly, and rubbed Mu Wanqing's instep with her cute little feet.
Mu Wanqing: "..."
The two stood next to each other, looking ahead, and then did not speak again.
But under the table, two pairs of well-proportioned and slender legs were not as quiet as the two of them, entwining each other...
The breeze blew through the clouds.
The sunlight passed through the window and condensed into a beam, shining into the conference room and also falling on the two people next to each other, making the whole room turn orange.
Dust floats.
Hazy.
…
It's around five o'clock in the afternoon.
Lin Yaocai and Mu Wanqing came out of the conference room.
The two parted at the door.
Lin Yao found Qi Jianhua immediately.
"How's it going? Have you found the feeling of the sound effects?"
After Lin Yao and Mu Wanqing determined their strategy.
I can't wait to announce the classic logo...or the title sequence.
"I tried it again, you see."
When Qi Jianhua saw Lin Yao, he immediately opened the software, found the project file, pressed play, and showed Lin Yao the newly made LOGO animation after installing the controller all afternoon.
on the screen.
Animation plays.
The background is bright red.
The two minimalist joy-con handles slide up and down, just like installation.
There was a snap.
Then keep it parallel.
It’s the classic logo that appears at the beginning of every Switch promotional video.
Lin Yao's eyes lit up when she heard the familiar voice: "Play it again."
Qi Jianhua played it again.
Lin Yao listened again.
Exactly the same!
"That's it! Let's make the film, we'll announce it right away!"
