Have you cleared the level again? !

Chapter 10 Exceeding Expectations
It is about to be released. Over at Star Interactive Entertainment, Fang Qi is sitting steadily on the Diaoyutai, leisurely drawing some design drafts of scenes and characters. It seems that he has already started to prepare for the next project.

In this situation, Wenwen couldn't help but ask: "Director, why are you not nervous at all?"

Fang Qi raised his head: "Why are you so nervous?"

Wenwen expressed the common sentiment of the project team: "What if the sales are not good, the reputation is not good, and everyone is unwilling to play?"

Fang Qi thought for a while: "Sum up experience and try harder next time."

Wenwen was stunned for a moment: "Uh... such a common answer."

Fang Qi thought for a moment, then his eyes widened in horror: "Do you want me to take the blame and resign?"

"No, no." Others said quickly.

"Who wants to take the blame and resign?" Jiang Qiuxu's voice sounded from outside the door. As soon as she arrived, the scene immediately became quiet.

"It's all a joke, why are you here?" Fang Qi asked.

Jiang Qiuxu said: "I see you haven't left yet after get off work, so come and take a look."

"They probably want to see the sales data. It's not far from six o'clock. Do you want to leave or come with us?"

"No, I have something else to do. It's useless to look at the sales situation for a while. It will be more accurate to look at the sales and reviews in the first week and first month." Jiang Qiuxu looked calmer than Fang Qi, as if the loss was not hers.

"Don't stay too late, I'll leave first." Jiang Qiuxu reminded everyone and turned to leave.

Fang Zhe suddenly said: "Your business is not that you are in a hurry to go back to play games, right?"

Jiang Qiuxu paused slightly, glanced back at Fang Qi, expressed "I want you to take care of it" with his eyes, and walked away.

If she didn't say anything, of course the project team would not dare to inquire into her personal affairs, but Fang Qi guessed correctly, she was indeed planning to go back to play games.

For the game "Tricky Neighbors", she only understood the overall framework of the project. If the boss didn't even know this, it would be impossible for the game to be approved. However, for the development of the specific content of the game, for the sake of game experience, she adopted Fang Qi's suggestions. Not involved.

In essence, she is a player just like Qin Zhiyou!
Jiang Qiuxu came to the parking lot and drove the hover car back home. Seeing that it was past six o'clock, he couldn't wait to log in to the IW platform account he had already registered and download the "Tricky Neighbor" that he had pre-ordered.

What, the boss still needs to buy it himself?
It is also good to increase the sales volume of the game by turning left and right. As for the 5% profit sharing, it is not a big deal.

Jiang Qiuxu, who already knew the game as a whole, got started faster than Qin Zhiyou, and quickly grasped the essence of the game. This game tests the player's observation, creativity and action planning abilities.

In the game, instead of waiting for the player to arrange all the mechanisms before Lao Wang takes action, both parties proceed simultaneously. The later levels are reached, the shorter the gap left for the player to arrange the mechanisms. Many times, if you are slow, you will not be caught by Lao Wang. If you are right, you will miss the layout opportunities in certain areas, resulting in a loss of points.

There are 25 levels, and the project team’s internal testing with a full-star rating takes about 12 hours to clear the level. If the player does not consider the score rating, then the level can be cleared with the lowest score in three to five hours.

However, Fang Qi believes that the high degree of freedom in the game will definitely attract some players to pursue extreme scores. Video files will be automatically saved when passing levels, and players will also be encouraged to show their creativity in passing levels.

When Jiang Qiuxu kept passing the test, the people in the project team had not left yet.

"200 copies sold... 300 copies sold... 400 copies sold!" Wenwen, who was staring at the background, would shout every once in a while.

The calculation function is turned on on the screen of Zhao Yechao's bracelet. Every time Wenwen shouts, he will modify the numbers on the calculator: "29.9x400x95%=11362". One is to calculate the sales volume, and the other is to calculate the profit. I want to say: "That's it, I'm crazy."

Wenwen complained: "Director, you are too calm, don't you have a little passion?"

"Yes." Zhao Yechao sighed, "In the past few years, life was all about survival and war. When I was studying in the military academy, I only dared to secretly imagine how great it would be if the simulated war system was a game instead of a training that concerns the life and death of soldiers. , I couldn’t imagine at that time that I would join the game production industry in the future.”

Planner Xiao Chen, Su Tao and others who just joined the company all agreed: "Yes, I actually participated in the production of a game. It's like a dream."

Fang Qi tried to feel the excitement and emotion of these young people, who had been freed from the shadow of Star Wars, where human life and death were a matter of life and death, as if they were reborn and devoted themselves to their respective careers and made achievements.

"500!" Wenwen shouted again.

Fang Qi did not stop him from complaining this time. He clapped his hands and asked everyone to look at him: "I have decided. If I can pass 1000 before seven o'clock, I will treat everyone to dinner tonight!"

"Okay!" the crowd shouted.

Although he was confident, Fang Qi did not dare to dream big. A total sales volume of 8 to 10 copies would be in line with his expectations.

What he didn't expect was that players' desire for high-quality games exceeded his expectations. Compared with the many inferior games on the platform, "Tricky Neighbors" developed by a regular game company was so refreshing and refined.

"1000, sales have exceeded 1000, it's only 06:30, treat me." Wenwen's voice sounded again, which made people very happy and encouraging.

"Okay, don't look at it. We have achieved such results just after we went online. It is unlikely that we will rush out and go to eat." Fang Qi greeted everyone while bragging, "I tell you, now you can sell 1000 copies in half an hour." If you are so excited, if you sell [-] copies in the next half hour, you won't even blink, and you might even cry because of your poor results."

Others didn't quite believe it.

"impossible!"

"What kind of game does it have to be to sell [-] copies in half an hour? Director, you are too daring to think about it."

Not only did they not believe it, but a sentence suddenly popped up from the crowd: "You didn't drink secretly behind our backs, right?"

Fang Qi was furious: "Who, who said that just now? Xiao Chen, don't hide, do you think I can't hear your voice?"

Amidst the laughter, a group of people went to have a big meal, and no one noticed that the lights inside Tianma Xingkong Studio across the street were still on.

Jiang Cairong's assistant Zhou Heng was sorting out the materials while staring at the download page of "Tricky Neighbors" on the IW platform. Since the last conflict in the restaurant, paying attention to Star Interactive Entertainment has become one of his tasks.

Zhou Heng knew that his boss Jiang Cairong seemed to be magnanimous, dignified, and capable, but he was really not big-hearted.

Although he couldn't see the background data, the download page of "Tricky Neighbor" updated the download volume every hour, which was enough for him to understand the sales situation.

After finally waiting until seven o'clock, it was finally refreshed for the first time. Seeing the above data, Zhou Heng's eyes were a little dull: "2167 copies? So many?"

Do you want to report it to your boss immediately?No, I only know how to download data. If the boss asks other questions, I will be scolded if I don’t know anything. How about I give it a try first?
Zhou Heng thought twice and clicked on the purchase option. The moment he clicked, he understood that it was impossible to reimburse the money.
