Game Development: I Built a Game Empire

"I wonder when Mr. Chen will start developing the next Three Kingdoms game!"

In the office of Fengyun Games, during the lunch break, Qin Yi looked helpless.

Chen Qingzhu and Zhao Shan, who were chatting about fans and reviewing the art next to him, ignored him.

This was his first time in the past two days. I asked for the sixth time.

After hearing this, Wang Yong, who happened to be passing by to get the materials, smiled:"You must be playing Zhuge Guanxing to hack yourself again!""

"Don't talk nonsense, that's just bad luck, and from a probability perspective, it's actually quite normal.……"After hearing Wang Yong's words, Qin Yi sat upright and defended himself.

What follows is a series of incomprehensible words such as probability and calculation formulas.

Zhao Shan and Chen Qingzhu next to them were overjoyed as they listened, and the whole office was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

"I have to prove this to Qin Yi. He really didn't watch the stars and hack himself in the past two days, but he did play Sima Lightning to hack himself. The memory of that spade hand is still fresh!"

At this time, Chen Xu, who was neatly dressed, walked out of the office with a smile on his face.

Hearing Chen Xu's words, everyone around him became even happier.

Good guy, Sima was struck by lightning, and this was no more difficult than Zhuge Guanxing's trick The operation must be poor.

After a little consideration for the feelings of the non-chief people, Chen Xu changed the topic with a smile.

"For a new game, wait until I finish the design concept draft later. In the past two days, you can research the strategy games on the market, and then write an analysis report to me."

Qin Yi nodded quickly when he heard this, and at the same time there was a burst of surprise in his eyes. Is the new game a strategy game?

"Mr. Chen, are you going on a blind date? Dressed so handsomely?"

Compared with Qin Yi's attention to the types of games Chen Xu mentioned,

Zhao Shan and Chen Qingzhu next to him paid more attention to Chen Xu.

Usually Chen Xu basically does the same thing in the office A programmer's standard white shirt and a pair of jeans.

But today's Chen Xu looks completely different. His hair has been specially styled, and the clothes he wears are obviously carefully selected.

"Girl, you think too much, you are just accepting an exclusive interview."Chen Xu heard Zhao Shan and Chen Qingzhu's curious questions, spread his hands and said

"Exclusive interview!"

Hearing Chen Xu's words, Zhao Shan, Chen Qingzhu and Qin Yi opened their eyes wide.

Is Mr. Chen already so good?

"Mr. Chen, which media is this interview for?"Qin Yi asked very curiously.

"Could it be that"Three Kingdoms" is so successful that the official has confirmed that Mr. Chen will be asked to shoot the material in advance?"Zhao Shan next to her gave full play to her association again.

"What are you thinking about? How is this possible? It's just an exclusive interview with Game Research Club."Chen Xu looked at a few people and said a little speechlessly.

"Game Research Club!"After hearing Chen Xu's words, several people showed surprise.

Compared with other game media, the Game Research Institute currently cooperates with Fengyun Games relatively closely.

Especially Han Yue, she has been responsible for handling this period. This piece

"Okay, I'll go first. The outsourcer will send the art materials in the afternoon. In addition, Qin Yi remembers to write me your analysis report on the games on the market."Chen Xu glanced at the time, chatted with a few people, and then walked towards the experience area.

The appointed time was almost there.

"Teacher Chen, nice to meet you! Nice to meet you!"Li Ye, who is the review editor of the Game Research Society, said hello to Chen Xu with excitement.

From when he accidentally received"Under the Legend" and experienced the shock it brought him, to the kind of"Vitality Knight" It was novel and special to"Three Kingdoms".

It can be said that he has admired Chen Xu as a game designer for a long time.

So when he knew that the company had confirmed this interview, he applied with the editor without hesitation.

Although at the beginning During"Under the Legend", he had already interviewed Chen Xu once, but after all, it was on the Internet.

"No need to call me Teacher Chen, just call me by my name."Seeing Li Ye calling him Teacher Chen with excitement, Chen Xu suddenly felt a little awkward, shook his hand and said. Teacher

Chen, this title doesn't sound very good!

It always reminds him of a well-known artist in his previous life. Photographer, and he is not good at taking pictures

"Um... Mr. Chen, first of all, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to accept our interview."

Hearing Chen Xu's words, Li Ye couldn't help but hesitated. After all, Teacher Li and Teacher Chen are also very normal names. Although he didn't know why Chen Xu didn't want to, he couldn't really call people by their names.

"busy? Actually, this aspect is pretty good. I also took a break after"Three Kingdoms" was released."

"Don't be so formal, just have a casual chat first."Chen Xu smiled, then placed a cup of coffee in front of Li Ye, then poured a cup himself and put it to his mouth and took a sip.

"Um...okay, okay."Looking at Chen Xu's spring-like smile, Li Ye subconsciously took the coffee from Chen Xu's hand.

Then he realized who was interviewing whom!

But before Li Ye could take back the right to speak, he heard Chen Xu said over there

"So let’s talk about the newly launched"Three Kingdoms" first. In fact, I believe you have also discovered that"Three Kingdoms" is a bit different from ordinary card games on the market."

"As for a related data of"Three Kingdoms", it is actually not a secret. In the event that has just ended, the highest daily activity of"Three Kingdoms" was 4.2 million people."

"Why do you want to develop a Three Kingdoms game? On the one hand, it is out of my love for the culture of the Three Kingdoms, and on the other hand, it is also in response to an official call from the Game Committee"

"And in addition to"Three Kingdoms", we are also secretly developing a more alternative Three Kingdoms game."

Still developing a Three Kingdoms game?

Is it more alternative?

Hearing Chen Xu's words, Li Ye's eyes lit up as he was sitting there and wanted to regain control of the discourse.

As for Fengyun Games still developing a new game, in fact It's not a big secret, because before"Three Kingdoms" was released, Chen Xu also revealed it in Chen Qingzhu's live broadcast.

But he didn't know what type it was, but now it's still the Three Kingdoms type?

Li Ye looked forward to it Looking at Chen Xu, he asked:"Mr. Chen, can you reveal a little bit about the new game?"

"Of course, but not too much will be revealed."Lituo Bin" is the name of the new game, and for this game, I can only say that it is a game that can fully experience the culture of the Three Kingdoms, and it will follow the Most Three Kingdoms games on the market so far have different performances."Chen Xu still had a smile on his face.

He wanted to dig out more information about this aspect, but seeing that Chen Xu just smiled, Li Ye could only change the topic:"Then Mr. Chen,"Three Kingdoms" The sales volume exceeded 10 million in the first week of launch. What do you think is the reason?"

"This is naturally due to the love and support of players for us, and in fact, the profit of"Three Kingdoms" is actually very low, and we even lost money."Chen Xu shook his head and said

"Forehead……"Hearing this, Li Ye was stunned for a moment.

"Compare this to Interactive Entertainment's new game"The Legend of Immortals" launched last month. The retention rate on the next day was 32%, the retention rate on the seventh day was 25%, and the highest daily active users were 1.7 million. The revenue announced that month was 130 million, while the sales related to"Three Kingdoms" The data is more than twice theirs, but the revenue may be only a quarter of theirs or even lower."

"Moreover, all players who complete the novice guide can receive a free skin, including last week’s server launch event. Calculated this way, we have actually given away skins worth 800 million yuan in total."Chen Xu said seriously.

After listening to Chen Xu's words, Li Ye opened his mouth and felt a little confused.

After thinking about it subconsciously, he actually felt that it made sense.

………………

It was not a very long interview, about forty-five minutes.

At the door of Fengyun Game, Li Ye was still a little dizzy.

Looking at the recorder in his hand, Li Ye recalled the interview with the talent. Why did he feel that he was the one being interviewed?

It seems that Chen Xu started all the topics!

Including the new game called"Lituo Shore", it seems that it was Chen Xu who took the initiative to reveal it!

The drafts I had in mind and the questions I wanted to ask before coming here are completely useless.

It was not useless. Finally, I asked a question about the revenue of"Three Kingdoms".

But with this answer, I always felt that he was deceived!

"Sure enough, he is still a young man!"

Looking at Li Ye getting into the car and leaving, Chen Xu also smiled and sighed.

After all, the other party is not a professional media reporter.From the first greeting, he immediately interrupted the entire interview.

A topic from beginning to end, including cutting into it, was all mastered by him.

Including one part of the interview, it was also what Chen Xu wanted to reveal.

And unlike nonsense, these contents are actually very interesting.

For example, the data of"Three Kingdoms", as well as the content of the follow-up new game"The Coast of the Land".
