Vol 2 Chapter 1041: Unexpected talent

Chapter One Thousand and Forty One

Unexpected talent

"Boss, Infinite Horror is in full swing. After half a year, there will be a preliminary internal beta version, and I will ask the boss to check it out at that time!"-"The Third Game Development Department" director Wu Gang said sincerely.

Originally, the eight game departments (now the top ten game departments) developed games, and they usually released the internal beta version directly, and the internal testing was assisted by game personnel from other departments of the company. After all, people in different game departments have different opinions on the same game. Views, especially everyone who designs games, will put forward some very constructive opinions. Therefore, it is often closed beta among the eight major game departments, and the public beta version is released after the revision.

But the original author of Infinite Horror is Lin Feng. It can be said that Lin Feng has the most say in Infinite Horror. Lin Feng can be said to be the most suitable reviewer. Especially Lin Feng Xianglai has many creative ideas for the game. As far as Infinite Horror is concerned, there is no more suitable candidate than Lin Feng.

Lin Feng nodded. He also didn't expect that Infinite Horror would be able to release the first closed beta version in half a year. Although it was a preliminary closed beta version, it could be released so soon, it still surprised Lin's style. But looking at Wu Gang's eyes sinking in, he must have been working overtime every day for some time recently, otherwise he wouldn't be so thin.

"Minister Wu, although work is important, you should also pay attention to rest!" Lin Feng advised.

Wu Gang smiled. Recently, the development of Infinite Horror, the whole team is in excitement. In order to develop this masterpiece as soon as possible, everyone spontaneously worked overtime. When they were hungry, they ate bread, and when they were thirsty, they drank water. In the sleep meeting, everyone has only one goal-to develop infinite horror as soon as possible.

How can Wu Gang fall asleep in this situation!

In this regard, Lin Feng could only shrug his shoulders helplessly. Game companies, no, most of it companies do. I was crazy when I was creating. I didn’t sleep for three to five days. It’s normal! After all, people's inspiration is limited, it belongs to the moment of inspiration. When there is inspiration, we must grasp this inspiration and can't let it go. As for their bodies, they can only have a long vacation after the development is completed!

After the acquisition of Blizzard, Lin Feng reformed the "Second World" system again. It was originally a one-month long holiday each year. Now, in January each year, the major game departments are planned for the whole year's tasks. After completion, after acceptance, the department can freely arrange the remaining time. You can travel around the world, or you can continue to work and create more wealth. It can be said that the "Second World" is now quite free!

"Lin, we are trying to develop a brand new game." Gates (part-time, former vice president of "Second World"), the head of the "Fourth Game Development Department", also showed a strange excitement on his face.

Brand new game? Lin Feng was taken aback.

"Haha, Lin, originally we wanted to develop Half-Life 3, but due to the lack of good enough scripts, and felt that the Half-Life series has reached a bottleneck, after accidentally discussing with one person, we decided to develop a brand new one. Game Assassin's Creed!" Gates said excitedly.

what! Assassin's Creed-Lin Feng stood up in surprise.

"Lin, what's the matter, you..." Gates didn't know why Lin Feng was so excited. And looking at Lin Feng’s expression, it seems that he has heard of Assassin’s Creed, but assassin’s creed was just decided by him. All relevant information is still in the minds of several internal ministers and deputy ministers. This is the first time that it has been disclosed to someone outside the department. How did Lin Feng know?

Seeing Gates' look, Lin Feng also knew that he was a little gagged just now. But this is not to blame Lin Feng, you know, Lin Feng is very clear about what kind of game Assassin's Creed is.

"Before rebirth", Lin Feng remembers that Assassin's Creed is an action game with a high degree of freedom. The production team is the famous Ubisoft Montreal studio (ubisoftmontreal). This production team has developed series of works such as Prince of Persia and Cell Division. Although Lin Feng didn't know how many copies he sold, according to the praise and craze at the time, there were also millions of copies sold.

With millions of copies sold, this is a pretty good result! The return on investment profit is calculated according to the return on profit of the current "Second World" stand-alone game, which is generally around 400%. If you vote 10 million, you can earn 40 million back. This can be said to bring a new profitable project to the "Second World". Of course, for Lin Feng, the more important thing is that this will complement the weak stand-alone game link of the "Second World" and enhance the influence and popularity of the "Second World" in the stand-alone game market!

However, isn't this developed by Ubisoft? How did you become your own company! ——Lin Feng was very surprised.

"Lin, before I introduce you to Assassin's Creed, I must recommend someone to you." Gates said cautiously.

Recommend someone? Could it be that the creators who developed Assassin's Creed came? ——Lin Feng secretly guessed.

At this moment, a person who Lin Feng was very familiar with stood up.

"Jade?" Lin Feng called subconsciously.

Isn't she the head of her company's game engine development department! Previously created the "ergonomic system", which laid a solid foundation for the swordsman love online and the world war!

"Lin, the person I want to introduce to you is her Jade Raymond! Although she is the head of the company's game engine development department, I think she is very expert in creating games. This time, she proposed the Assassin’s Creed. "Gates exclaimed.

For a long time, the game industry has been a man's world, especially first-person action games, and it is a man's kingdom. Unexpectedly, this time Jade Raymond gave Gates a very creative game idea. After some discussion, Gates quickly abandoned his original plan to develop Half-Life 3 and went to develop this Assassin's Creed proposed by Jade Raymond.

After meditation, Lin Feng patted his forehead fiercely. That’s right, didn’t the industry have been rumoring that there was a strong woman in the first-person action game world, whose name was Jade. Doesn't jad%% mean jade, but when Jade Raymond came to the company, Lin Feng didn't care too much. After all, at that time, the focus of work was on Jianxia Qingyuan online and the strongest games on the ground. I didn't know that the original super woman in the game industry would actually be a super woman in the game industry!

If you make a profit, you really make a profit! It turned out that I dug such a large piece of treasure back. ——Thinking that he inadvertently dug such a strong woman back, Lin Feng was excited from ear to ear.

"Lin, Lin!" Gates whispered.

Hearing Gates' voice, Lin Feng was in a daze for a while before he recovered.

"What's the matter?" Lin Feng asked embarrassedly.

"Since this Assassin's Creed was proposed by Jade, I have an idea." Gates said.

"Uh, Gates, what do you mean?" Lin Feng has a general plan for the use of Jade Raymond, but he still listens to Gates' opinions first.

"In this way, I hope that Jade can temporarily serve as the development work of Assassin's Creed. After all, the main idea of ​​this game was put forward by her." Gates said.

Jade Raymond looked at Lin Feng nervously. When she joined the "Second World", her hope was to develop games, but in the end, by mistake, she entered the game engine development department. Although she was the minister, her greatest interest was to develop games. So this time after a long time of deliberation, the idea of ​​Assassin's Creed was given to Gates. Whether she can realize her dream now depends on Lin Feng's meaning.

Lin Feng thought for a while, and he had a very good idea in his mind.

"Gates, is this Assassin's Creed really so good?" Lin Feng asked deliberately.

Gates nodded.

"Lin, I believe that Assassin's Creed will surely be able to bring huge profits to the company!" Gates said confidently.

Lin Feng smiled, the bait was hooked!

"In that case, I have a suggestion. How about Jade Raymond taking charge of the development of Assassin’s Creed this time? As the commander-in-chief, you and all the technical talents in your department will listen to her deployment. Command you." Lin Feng said.

Gates was taken aback when he heard the words. He originally hoped that Jade Raymond could serve as a senior consultant or director, but he did not expect that Lin Feng would give Jade Raymond such a big power. Of course, for Gates, he doesn't care about such rights. After all, he is the vice president of the company, but because the company temporarily lacks talents, and many employees of the "Fourth Game Development Department" are his original "valve" Of employees, so he concurrently serves as minister. Lin Feng made such an arrangement, in terms of rights, he was not unhappy, and he himself was not a person who likes to fight for power.

It's just that Gates is worried that although Jade Raymond has served as the head of the game engine development department, it is different from being responsible for developing a game alone. The original game engine department was mainly responsible for technology. It was only pure technology, but there were more aspects involved in game development, such as technology, management, and many things that could only be unspeakable. She has such experience and leadership skills. Is it? -This is what Gates is extremely worried about. And he didn't understand why Lin Feng suddenly valued Jade Raymond so much.

Lin Feng smiled. After learning that Jade Raymond was the famous female superwoman in the game industry, Lin Feng was willing to bring her out of the game engine department and manage a game development department separately. You know, Assassin's Creed is a series of works, and Lin Feng doesn't want to bury it. And in the future, Jade Raymond will be able to bring more outstanding works to the company.

Jade Raymond, this is a talent, it can't be wasted!
