I play games in Zongman World

Sitting on the boss's chair and stretching, Yi Chen turned on the computer, and then began to check everyone's work completion during the two days he was away.

First of all, the newly recruited members, Yi Chen directly arranged a new project, that is, Castle Breaker, a 2D side-scrolling action game that supports online and offline cooperation of up to four players.

The art style of this game is not too complicated. The main thing is to take into account the richness of the game's combat and the cooperation and interaction between players, including the mutual pitfalls between players.

The production cost of such small boutique games may not be very high, but the style and gameplay of the game will be outstanding.

At present, the progress of this team is quite smooth, and everything is doing well. The development time of the game is estimated by Ying Ningning, and it should be completed in April to May next year.

When the development of this game is completed, these people should have almost exercised, and they can enter the next challenging project.

For Dark Souls, the modeling of various monsters, NPCs, and maps has been done in sevens and eighties, and only the last part needs to be corrected and supplemented.

The programming group of the Black Soul development team is under the greatest pressure. The AI ​​adjustments of various bosses and monsters, as well as various numerical values, and the numerical values ​​​​of weapons also need to be adjusted.

But in any case, the game has entered the final development stage, and all the plot lines in the game have been produced.

Rubbing his chin, Yi Chen said to himself: "Well... at the end of the year, announce the release date, and start pre-ordering."

Apart from the map, there is still a big difference between this Dark Soul and the old thief's Dark Soul 3. The weapon Yichen has added a batch, and the combat skills and magic have been adjusted to make the gameplay more rich and balanced. All genres can be used to clear customs.Some monsters and bosses have been added. Ordinary monsters are difficult and easy, while bosses are more oppressive. Whether they are powerful or agile, we strive to impress players after fighting them.

Ashes, the main character controlled by the player, is as weak as ever. He can roll but still can't jump. He can barely jump forward for a short distance, and he still has to run before jumping out.

But isn't that what the Soul series is all about?The protagonist's low physical ability, the oppressive and changeable moves against various bosses, and the exaggerated damage will give you a sense of accomplishment that you can't experience in games after defeating.

Of course, Ashes' roll dodge function is pretty good. Yi Chen doesn't have a very short invincible frame like the hunter's roll in Monster Hunt, so it still needs to give the player some room to maneuver.

Otherwise, the game will be purely disgusting, and there will be no sense of experience at all.

Then there is Jelly Bean Man. It has been several months since the game was released. Although the popularity has dropped a bit compared to the first month, it has benefited from the constantly updated maps and skins that are released from time to time, as well as the later updates. Season pass and ranking mode, the popularity of the game is still good.

Yi Chen opened Steam to check, and the number of online players of Tangdouren still exceeds 6.

If NS and PS platforms are added, the number of people will be even greater.

Generally speaking, as long as the popularity of Tangdou people is maintained at this level, Yi Chen will be satisfied.And if some particularly interesting maps or new modes are updated in the future, it will definitely increase the popularity of the game.

As a game that requires long-term operation, in addition to the popularity when it was first released, subsequent maintenance is also very important.

After watching it in Tokyo, the studio in Shanghai is still in full swing.Now that Titanfall has just been released, although there are no major bugs, players still found some small bugs along with the release of the game, and the studio immediately updated and repaired it after receiving feedback.

The game's plot, shooting feel, titan battle and optimization have all been unanimously recognized by the players.

And the online battle mode of the game, after playing the story mode, many players have also tried it.

In addition to the traditional pvp confrontation, the development team also designed some asymmetrical battle modes, such as pure iron pilot battle and pure titan battle.

Although the number of online players is not as high as those games like Chicken Eats, it is still good overall, and Yi Chen doesn't take this too seriously. After all, there is apex to be launched later, and that is the really important part.

After the first week of the game's release is over, and the development team in Shanghai is allowed to rest for a week, it's time to start the development of apex.

With the development experience and materials of Titanfall, it is not that difficult to develop apex. Yi Chen will also consider taking time to go back and work with the development team on the early development work.

After checking the work, Yi Chen had no intention of working today, and his status was not online, so he got up and left the office directly.

After coming out, I looked around the art group, and then Yichen came to the action group next to the art group.

As soon as he arrived, he saw Shinoda Chu sitting in front of the computer. The computer screen did not display work software, but the browser screen, which displayed the newly launched 40-series graphics card.

Walking behind Xiao Tianchu, Yi Chen patted her on the head and said, "Miss Chu, are you fishing during working hours?"

Xiao Tianchu was startled, turned around and explained to Yi Chen: "It's not fishing! I just finished my work!"

After finishing speaking, she quickly opened the action module of the final boss Salary King incarnation that she had just made. This was the most difficult boss action design that Shinoda Chu had done in her work experience, and it cost her almost a dollar. It took a month to do it according to Yi Chen's request.

Move the seat aside and let Yi Chen check the results of his work, Shinoda Chu said from the side: "I wanted to show you when it was finished, but I heard from Sister Guang that you are checking everyone's work content for the past two days, so I I just want to go to your office to find you later, and take a look at things by myself to pass the time."

Yi Chen nodded, and didn't think that Shinoda Chu would lie.

He entrusted Shinoda Chulai with the design of the incarnation of the king of salary, and he also gave her a lot of design ideas and requirements. I also know that Shinoda Chu was very busy because of this task in November.

While looking at the results of Xiao Tianchu's work, Yi Chen said: "Miss Chu, you were looking at the 40-series graphics card just now, and you need to change the device again? I remember that your computer at home isn't a 3090 graphics card?"

"Hey hey, new equipment is out, of course I want to see it."

Shinoda Chu said with a smile, "It's just that the price is too high, which kind of wiped out my idea of ​​buying it, so wait a little longer."

The pricing of the 40-series graphics card is already a notch higher than that of the 30-series, not to mention that it just came out now.

Anyway, Yichen himself doesn't plan to buy it yet, and the 3090 in hand can be used for a long time.

Chapter 473 Yang Nai Helping in the Kitchen

It took about 10 minutes for Yi Chen to check the results of Shinoda Chu's work and nodded in satisfaction.

This incarnation of the king of salary is much more complicated than the one in Yi Chen's memory. Yi Chen directly designed three stages to force Graman, and the moves are also much more complicated and cool.

And at the beginning of Xiaotian, she also perfectly completed the task that Yi Chen gave her.

Returning the seat to Shinoda Chu, Yi Chen said: "Very good, all the moves are in line with my requirements. Since Miss Chu has done a good job, I won't pursue the matter of you fishing at work just now, next Keep up the good work."

Shinoda's face was a little downcast, but she still nodded: "I know~~~"

After seeing what happened to Shinoda Chu, the other members of the program team all suppressed their laughter and lowered their heads one by one, for fear of being discovered.

They reminded Xiao Tianchu just now, beware of the boss coming to check, after all, although Yi Chen is usually very friendly, he still doesn't allow everyone to fish during working hours, and it's already past the afternoon tea time.

For everyone's reminders, Xiao Tianchu didn't care at all, but Yi Chen came over after only 2 minutes.

After Yi Chen left, Shinoda Chu immediately looked at the silent team members.

"Just now, did someone among you leak the secret?"

"No no no no!"

"Absolutely not!"

"We are loyal to you, boss!"

Why is there still a dog licking?

But to be honest, with Shinoda Chu's straightforward personality and tall and curvy figure, she is indeed very popular among the boys in the company, and there are indeed people who have a crush on her.

But it's a pity that Shinoda Chu answered everyone's questions during the previous company dinner, saying that he didn't want to fall in love, so he rejected many people's ideas.

After being gank by Yi Chen, Shinoda Chu didn't want to continue fishing and looking at the graphics card. He picked up other tasks at hand and started to do it.

At 06:30 in the evening, Yi Chen and Shi Yu returned home.

When they got home, Xue Nai and Yang Nai had already arrived one step ahead and were preparing dinner at home.

Seeing Yang Nai following in the kitchen, Yi Chen asked curiously: "Sister Yang Nai, what are you doing in the kitchen, won't you disturb Xue Nai?"

"What, I can also help chop vegetables, okay?"

While retorting, Yang Nai picked up the kitchen knife in his hand and showed it, "Although I'm not very skilled in cooking, my knife skills are still good!"

real or fake?

Yi Chen looked at the chopping board in front of Yang Nai, the meat slices on it were really well sliced, very even, no one piece was thin or the other was thick.

This made Yi Chen couldn't help but give Yang Nai a high look.

Meeting Yi Chen's eyes, Yang Nai proudly puffed up his chest: "Hmph, am I amazing?"

Of course, this is only what Yang Nai has practiced recently, and there was absolutely no such level before.

But of course she wouldn't tell Yi Chen about these things, wouldn't it have the effect of surprising Yi Chen?

Sure enough, Yi Chen looked at Yang Nai and nodded: "Indeed, it's quite powerful."

However, before Yang Nai was satisfied, Yi Chen immediately said: "But you can also chop vegetables, and then you can go to the living room and stay, and leave the other tasks to Xue Nai and Shi Yu."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Yang Nai to react, he took the kitchen knife from her hand and handed it to Xue Nai, and then pulled her out of the kitchen.

"Alas? Alas? Wait a minute!"

Seeing Yang Nai being pulled out by Yi Chen, Shi Yu asked Xue Nai in a low voice: "Sister Yang Nai really didn't cause you any trouble?"

Xue Nai shook her head and said with a smile: "Sister really practiced knife skills when I didn't know it, and she surprised me when she cut the meat at the beginning. But it's just like what my brother said, after the meat is cut, It's not her turn to do other things."

"Okay, wait a minute, Yukino, I'll help you after I put the things away."

After dinner, Yi Chen sat on the sofa and took a sip of tea, and said with a satisfied face: "Sure enough, your body is almost in good shape, and your food tastes good. When I ate the night before yesterday, I didn't have much taste at all. It’s uncomfortable, but it was a little better yesterday.”

Yang Nai on the side agreed and said: "That's right, the most annoying thing when you have a cold and fever is that the food tastes bad. Xiaochen, since you are almost recovered, let's find a time in these two days and let's go to the office building. Read?"

"sure."

Yi Chen naturally has no problem, and readily agreed, "It's best to finalize this matter before the end of this year."

Yi Chen still has plenty of funds at hand, and the expected sales of Titanfall, as well as the steady increase in sales of Tangdouren, have added another fund that can be used in his hands.

Even if the funds to pay employees' wages in the next two months are taken into account, it is completely enough to settle down the new office space.

Even though Yi Chen still drives the car he bought two years ago when he travels, and the house he lives in is the same apartment he lived in when he was a sophomore in high school, but he is indeed very rich.The accumulation of assets has already surpassed that of their peers, and even many business people who are a few years older than self-sufficiency.

Even if you spent a lot of money on the office building, don't forget that there are two sisters, Yang Nai Xue Nai, as shareholders here, and you can definitely borrow a little money from them, or give up some shares to The two of them may go home under the snow to get cash flow.

With self-sufficiency and the current relationship with Yukinoshita's family, there is no need to worry about other messy problems.

If the new office building I visited this time is really good, then the company's office building in Japan for the next five or even ten years can be completely determined.

Drinking tea and chatting at Yichen's house until eight o'clock, Yang Nai and Xue Nai said goodbye and left.

After leaving Yichen's house, before going downstairs, Xue Nai looked at her sister and said, "Sister, I have an idea."

"kindness?"

Yang Nai looked at Xue Nai curiously, "What is it?"

"My sister's house is two bedrooms and one living room, right? Mind if I move here?"

"Move here?"

Yang Nai's eyes lit up in an instant, and he grabbed Yukino's hands and said, "Of course, the empty room at sister's side was originally prepared for you, Yukino! If you want to move here, you can move here anytime! No, Yukino Why would you want to move in and live with me? Usually you don't want me to come to your apartment. "

Xue Nai glanced at her sister, and explained: "Isn't it because you are too lazy, sister, didn't you ask your brother to make lunch for you for two months by looking for an office building? It's obviously very simple The thing that can be promised, I just blackmailed him, so I thought about it, why don't I move here, so that when I wake up in the morning, sister, you will have breakfast, and you won't ruin your body because you often don't eat breakfast .”

"Woooooo! Yukino, you are so kind, let my sister hug me!"

As soon as she raised her hand, Xue Nai dodged and walked towards the elevator.

"Then let's put it this way, I will move in on the weekend."

After Xue Nai walked into the elevator, Yang Nai put down his hands, with thoughtful eyes, shook his head and walked into his home.

Chapter 474 Confirmation of the company building

The inspection of the building went very smoothly.

Although there are procedures in this office building, it is a bit more than the five-story office building that Yi Chen originally expected, but it is not much worse.

With Yang Nai as the middleman, the price is not too outrageous, it is completely within Yi Chen's acceptable range.

After reading it once, Yi Chen called Ye Yueshizuku again, the former person in charge who was originally a flying eagle, and went to inspect it again.

Standing in an office on the sixth floor of the office building, looking at the scenery outside the building, Hazuki Shizuku said with satisfaction: "It's a very nice place, if we can use this as our future headquarters, I think everyone will be very satisfied. But after buying this place, is our company's funds really okay?"

"Don't worry, it's just a small problem."

Yi Chen said very confidently, "Sister Ye Yue, you should be aware of our company's revenue situation. At most, it will be a little nervous for a month or two, but it is completely fine to pay everyone. I will be a soft meal for two months. Man, just let Shiyu raise me."

Listening to Yi Chen's words, both Yang Nao and Ye Yue Shizuku laughed out loud.

After laughing for a while, Ye Yueshizuku put away her smile, looked at Yi Chen and said, "Since you have decided, then go ahead and do it. I believe they will be very excited when you tell everyone the news when you go back."

"Well, that's what I thought too."

After making the decision, Yi Chen signed the contract and began to go through a series of procedures.

With Yang Nai's help, these things went very smoothly, and a series of procedures were completed in three days.After Yi Chen paid the money, the six-story office building will become the new headquarters of YC Productions in Tokyo after the renovation is completed.

Now that the building has been bought, the decoration has to be put on the agenda. It is very convenient for Yang Nai's family to do these things, and there is no need to worry about being cheated.

Arriving at Yukinoshita's company headquarters in Tokyo, Yi Chen went directly to Yang Nai's office and discussed with her about the decoration of the office building.

"For the overall interior decoration, I don't need too much fancy or technological style decoration, it should be simple, and then in the planned leisure area, the decoration can be mainly relaxing, and the color tone can be Do more articles. After that, there is the cafeteria on the second floor, which also needs to be taken care of, Sister Yang Nai, to help me deal with it.”

Regarding the decoration and layout of the whole building, Yi Chen gave a preliminary idea, and then handed over these ideas to the designers of Yang Nai's company, asking them to help with the precise design.

After several designers listened to Yi Chen's narration, one of them said with a smile: "Don't worry, Mr. Yi Chen, we have design experience in interior decoration for several Internet companies, and you will be satisfied. Then the president , let’s go to a meeting first and prepare for the design.”

"Well, let's go."

After several designers went out, Yang Nai stretched his waist and leaned on the back of the chair, and said with a smile, "It won't take much time, according to their previous design time, they can give you a general design plan within a week." , if there are any problems, you can continue to make revisions. After the New Year holiday, you can start the formal decoration. By the way, after the decoration is completed and moved there, there will definitely be a lot of office equipment inside. Do you want me to ask for tables and chairs? Arrange it for you too?"

"Acquainted?"
