Chapter 237 The wolf is coming
“As for the PVZ project, Brother Yun, just worry more. The main project may not be able to give you much support...”
“It’s okay, Mr. Gu, the main project is important, I promise to complete the task..."
“As for Sato-san, the reason why I want to move the main project to Steel Chain Fingers is because this time our game style is more Japanese-style, and we need you and Yuki to pay more attention..."
“No problem Gu Sang, the steel chain fingers will certainly fulfill their mission…”
“Okay, that’s basically it for today’s meeting. Let’s go and do our own business. It’s time to inform and prepare…”
"good-!!"
They all responded in unison, and everyone stood up.
“That’s right,”
Halfway through the game, Dajiang suddenly remembered and asked:
“Brother Sheng, what is the name of our main project? Or the code name?”
Hearing this, everyone stopped and looked at Gu Sheng.
The name of the Plants vs. Zombies spin-off project has been decided, and it is called "Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare", or "Garden Warfare" for short.
But Gu Sheng has not yet said the name of the main project.
“Oh, I almost forgot,”
Gu Sheng slapped his forehead:
“It’s called ‘sekiro: shadowdietwice’”
‖
The wolf is coming.
An action game unprecedented in this world is about to debut.
Although, in Gu Sheng's previous life, the investment in this game was not high, and it was not even close to a 3A masterpiece.
But in this world!
Gu Sheng will rely on the blessing of the motion assistance system and move it into the somatosensory cabin, allowing countless players to experience the thrilling personal blacksmithing!
They will face the huge and violent red ghost, the violent Yaxiao, the terrifying charging fire bull, and the weird and perverse monk who breaks the precepts.
They will jump up on the castle tower, use the wind and lightning, and act like thunder.
They will dart around among the reeds and compete with the sword master Yishin in his heyday!
The war in Ashina Kingdom has been ignited, and the loyal and brave wolves are about to awaken!
Whether he dies repeatedly and becomes the slave of emotions that Gu Sheng plays with in applause, or is he reincarnated countless times and becomes a ninja who cuts off the immortal.
Everything will be revealed once this game is released!
What the players don’t know is!
When they finally have someone to kill the immortal, even greater challenges will be waiting for them in the future.
Because in faraway Lothric—the fire is about to go out, but the king is nowhere to be seen!
Three years!
Gu Sheng’s super masterpiece plan can finally be revealed!
A wolf will be his first step.
At the same time, it will also be the first time that Golden Wind comes into contact with a real 3S-level masterpiece!
They will travel far away from Neon and have their first real showdown with Comella!
Think of this!
Gu Sheng couldn't help but feel excited!
Looking around him, little Nezha was also in high spirits, his eyes shining!
There were only two people left in the conference room.
Gu Sheng smiled and said: "The first 3S-level masterpiece, aren't you very excited?"
Gu Sheng was very pleased to see little Nezha like this.
The iron pestle is ground into a needle!
Thinking back to those days, classmate Nezha was still a gaming idiot and knew nothing about the industry.
Now, I am getting excited when I hear that my company will also enter the international stage and develop 3S-level masterpieces!
Isn’t this awareness brought up?
Great! Comrade Xiao Shen!
My heart is so relieved!
“Ah…haha, excited, excited…”
Shen Miaomiao looked at the light of approval in Gu Sheng's eyes and felt somewhat ashamed.
Hmm, Lao Gu, we may have different excitement points.
Indeed!
The first 3S-level work in the history of Golden Wind is about to be launched, which is indeed exciting!
But the prospect of losses for Garden Warfare, a two-coin project, is even more exciting!
Yes.
Shen Miaomiao was mainly excited about Garden War.
That big clever project that turns players into vegetative and dancing zombies.
The settings are outrageous, the staff is understaffed, and expectations are low.
The whole thing is a tool project.
The father doesn’t love the mother, so it’s a good business that will lose money!
Expand the documents in your mind—
【Sub-project: Plants vs. Zombies-Garden Warfare】
【Project investment amount: 38 million yuan】
【Project settlement time: 7 days (+0 days)】
【Project rebate rate: 15 times (+0 times)】
【Current revenue amount: 0 yuan】
【Estimated rebate amount: 570 million yuan】
【Remaining settlement time: waiting to be opened】
Total investment 38 million!
The original estimate of the total cost given by Gu Sheng was 35-38 million yuan.
But for Shen Miaomiao, she always chose the bigger rather than the smaller.
If Gu Sheng hadn't been worried that the high cost would prevent the revenue from earning more than 20 million yuan, she would have dared to raise the cost of this project to 50 million yuan!
The more you invest, the more you will lose.
Of course!
The cost of 38 million is not low.
Especially with the fifteen times rebate rate at the beginning!
One week settlement time!
The maximum rebate amount is 570 million!
Although!
Compared to the 100 times rebate in "Escape", 15 times seems a bit small.
But think about it carefully, in a 38 million project, even if the loss is only about 660,000, the rebate that can be obtained is 10 million!
Ten million!
The last time I saw a rebate of 10 million, it was in the "Long 4 Survival" project!
As long as it loses a little more!
Let’s not talk about buying a yacht, buying a lifeboat on the yacht is definitely enough!
Save slowly!
Anyway, now Golden Wind is running dual-core at the same time, and the speed of producing games has been doubled.
Save a lifeboat today, an engine tomorrow, a plywood and a private helicopter the day after tomorrow.
A luxury yacht is here!
happy!
Shen Miaomiao was very satisfied.
Even after work, he took Gu Sheng to the supermarket to buy some ingredients and went home to bake a small cake.
The sun sets in the west.
Gu Sheng stood by the counter, handling the ingredients in his hands.
With the sound of the oven dinging!
Shen Miaomiao's voice came next:
“Wuhu! Great success!”
While speaking, Shen Miaomiao put on insulated gloves and brought over a plate of steaming small cakes.
While exhaling, he took out various small cakes from the mold, stretched out his little hand to fan the hot steam, and carefully twisted a small star-shaped cake.
Blowed: "Hoo-ho-have a taste!"
Gu Sheng opened his mouth to accept the feeding. The soft and dense thumb cake was sweet and exuded the fragrance of milk.
"How is it?" Shen Miaomiao's little hands pinched her earlobes, perhaps because the cake that had just been baked was a little hot.
A pair of big eyes full of expectation, and a small face flushed.
Gu Sheng smashed his mouth:
“If you don’t taste it, try another one.”
Shen Miaomiao did not doubt that he was there, so she pinched another one and gave it to Gu Sheng.
“Tsk, that’s not deep enough, here’s another one…”
“Hey, it’s interesting. It would be nice if there was another one...”
Until the seventh one is fed!
Shen Miaomiao finally felt something was wrong!
“Are you Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit? You are about to eat all my cakes!”
Realizing that he had been tricked, Nezha was furious. He jumped on Gu Sheng's back and shook him to make him return the cake.
“Hahahaha, it’s delicious. Isn’t it delicious? I want to take two more bites because it’s delicious.”
Gu Sheng laughed loudly and shook his head left and right:
"Go down quickly, I have to cook."
“I don’t! Just cook like this! It’s just a good time to exercise!”
Little Nezha's fair and slender arms tightly hugged Gu Sheng's neck, his legs wrapped around Gu Sheng's waist, and her pink feet were clasped together in front of him, refusing to go down like a koala:
“You cheated on my little cake, and in return you have to give me a shaker! Sing!”
The faint fragrance of peach came, and Gu Sheng couldn't help laughing. While washing vegetables, he bumped the little Nezha behind him: "There is a chicken in the left hand, a duck in the right hand, and there is a fat baby on his back..."
Before he finished singing, Little Nezha pressed his nose:
“Chege! I’m not fat!”
The sun sets in the west.
The golden-red light spread through the large glass window of the kitchen, illuminating the two faces that were leaning against each other and laughing...
…
soon.
The news about “developing derivative works of Plants vs. Zombies” quickly spread like wildfire.
According to 'exact gossip': This time, Golden Wind has taken a fancy to PVZ's global influence and will focus on developing "Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare" as a main project. The game will be developed by Gold Experience and Steel Chain The fingers work together to make it.
The news is out!
There are constant discussions from all parties.
Some people think that “FPS” and “Plants vs. Zombies”, these two keywords combined, are the best for Golden Wind.
After all, what Golden Wind is best at is shooting games. Starting from "Long 4 Survival" and continuing to "APEX", they created one myth after another and pioneered one innovation after another.
Coupled with "Plants vs. Zombies", this industry-breaking IP sold 7 million units worldwide in a single week.
Such a combination must be the best among the best. If the cost and development time are in place, it may be able to achieve the grand success of "Titanfall" back then!
However, some people feel that the golden wind has shown signs of decline.
Because of nothing else, just because of the name of this game—Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare.
To put it nicely, this is a derivative work.
To put it mildly, this is resting on the foundation of the previous work.
Perhaps this approach is understandable for other manufacturers, even most manufacturers in the world.
But for Golden Wind, it is really worrying to refer the name of the previous work to the main project so nakedly.
Because you must know that before this, Golden Wind has always been famous for "not being able to count 2"!
Is "Vampire Survivor" a hit? Create a genre!
No 2.
Is "Long 4 Survival" a hit? The second generation of FPS is the beginning!
No 2.
Is "Titanfall" a hit? It can be called a shooting game that exceeds the ceiling level!
No 2.
In the eyes of many people, the golden wind is like an eternal flowing river, and Gu Sheng is the source of its inspiration.
He has too many ideas! There are so many great ideas that I want to show to the world!
So much so that he didn’t even have time to think about a sequel!
Even the only one that can barely be called a sequel, "APEX", was only released as a supplementary multiplayer mode for Titanfall!
That is to say.
Now this "Garden Warfare" is the only derivative work of Golden Wind that repeats the old work and adopts the IP of the previous work.
And it’s also the main project!
what does that mean?
“Does this mean the supernova is about to burn out?”
“Does it mean that Golden Wind can no longer innovate?”
“Or does it mean that the newly rising stars of China will make the same mistakes again and disappear into oblivion?”
“Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha．
ˆYiyou Technology CEO Office!
Yan Sheng browsed through keywords for articles and reports about the trend of badmouthing gold, laughed, and threw the phone aside.
Then he leisurely picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
On the other side, the vice president Lao Zhao came to report the situation.
He came over because he saw that the recent trends regarding Golden Wind seemed a bit negative, and wanted to report it to Yan Sheng quickly.
Unexpectedly, Yan Sheng was not worried at all after reading it.
Lao Zhao couldn't help but be stunned:
“Mr. Yan, Golden Wind is our number one general, but there is something wrong with the current limelight.”
“Hey—Old Zhao, you don’t dare to say that about ‘under our banner’,”
Yan Sheng waved his hand and motioned for Li Xiaofeng to drink tea:
“Golden Wind and us have always been partners,”
“We are not like Xunteng, who maintains a studio and cannot even speak of a subsidiary, besides…”
Speaking of this.
Yan Sheng paused, then said:
“Although the rapid rise of Golden Wind has something to do with our art game,”
“But at this rate, I guess it won’t be long before I have to run around a lot more, giving gifts to Mr. Shen, and treating Vice President Gu to dinner...”
——
Hear the words.
Old Zhao was stunned for a moment, then asked:
"What Mr. Yan means is... we can rest assured about Golden Wind and believe in their "PVZ word-of-mouth + FPS type" combination?"
However.
Hearing this, Yan Sheng paused, then smiled:
“King of bombs? What a bomb! A small game with a small investment is still logged in the somatosensory cabin. Where can it go if it explodes again?”
"ah?"
Yan Sheng’s words obviously made Lao Zhao a little confused:
“Isn’t this...the main project of Golden Wind?”
“What project is the main project?”
Yan Sheng waved his hand and pushed the tea bowl to Lao Zhao opposite:
“If it’s really a major project, why don’t they say the cost?”
“If it’s really a main project, why is it just a rumor?”
“If it is really a major project, why has Golden Wind not even made any announcement yet?”
this-
Yan Sheng’s series of questions left Lao Zhao speechless.
Too.
According to Golden Wind's past habits, if a project is confirmed to be developed, even if it is not announced, at least it will be mentioned on Golden Wind's official Weibo account and Gu Sheng's personal social platform account.
But this time.
The news about "Garden Warfare" seems to be just speculation.
Golden Wind did not mention this so-called ‘main project’.
"so…?"
Thinking of this, an idea flashed in Lao Zhao's mind!
“So this is not their main project at all?!”
"Ha ha,"
Yan Sheng burst into laughter and showed an ambiguous and mysterious smile, as if he had understood everything:
“Old Zhao, please sort out the projects we have at hand, organize them and arrange them properly,”
“If things go well,”
“As soon as the market opens in the next quarter,”
"We have a tough battle to fight..."
