Chapter 6 Super Dream Editor

“‘The Ember Will Go Out’?”

The first reaction of the people in charge was that the name was a bit difficult to pronounce and not easy to understand.

Chen She smiled slightly. Of course he had a purpose in coming up with such a name and story background.

A slightly more awkward name can dissuade players who see it to some extent.

And the background of this story should serve as some kind of hint.

Chen She hoped that this Mewtwo would, to some extent, allow the resistance fighters to accept the reality of their current despair and realize their own weakness, thereby suppressing their will to die to a certain extent.

It's not that you can't play, but you still need to develop steadily in a headwind situation.

Therefore, Chen She cannot be too naked. If a gun battle game is used as the background, it will only make the resistance fighters more united in their hatred of the enemy and their will to fight will be even higher.

With the background of fighting with cold weapons, the resistance fighters would not immediately think of the suggestive effect of Mewtwo, so Chen She could instill this concept into them through subtle means.

Chen She explained: "The so-called ember is the state of the fire that has not been extinguished after the fuel has burned out."

"This is a story with an oriental background. In the center of the map is a huge imperial city. In the imperial city is burning a blazing holy fire, and the holy fire burns the destiny of all people in the world."

"Once the holy fire is extinguished, all people in the world will fall into a sea of ​​suffering that will never be restored."

"Everyone in the world is fuel for the holy fire to continue burning."

"Surrounding the imperial city are several different countries, such as the swamp country, the nomadic country, the Buddha's country, etc."

"These countries all want to seize the Holy Fire."

"Players who play the role of an ordinary person can freely take actions in this world."

"He can attack the surrounding countries, and I will arrange some simple tasks in these countries. After defeating these countries, it is equivalent to temporarily eliminating the surrounding threats for the central imperial city."

"Players can also directly enter the imperial city to defend the Holy Fire. This is more difficult because they will face endless attacks from surrounding countries."

"There are also more extreme cases where players can directly enter the imperial city to extinguish the flame."

"In short, players can take any action. In this context where the fate of the world is about to burn out and the world is about to fall into catastrophe, keep fighting."

In Chen She's view, this story background is a metaphor.

The player's situation in Mewtwo is actually the situation of the resistance in reality, and they face an almost impossible task.

If the resistance fighters challenge this Mewtwo deeply, they will naturally gradually develop this kind of frustration.

Of course, Chen She didn't think that this frustration would have any fundamental impact on the resistance fighters.

Because after the resistance movement was wiped out, the resistance fighters who are still holding on are all determined and indomitable. He is even ready to sacrifice his life to attack the big consortium at any time!

In this case, it would be a good thing to slightly suppress their fighting mood. It can avoid some meaningless sacrifices and allow them to settle down and develop steadily.

Try to persuade players to retreat as much as possible and suppress the resistance of the rebels.

In this way, Chen She could live in peace for a while.

The people in charge did not know the rich psychological activities in Chen She's heart. They only saw the determined and ambitious CEO of the group and the captain of the resistance army who was full of fighting spirit.

The story background of this Mewtwo is not complicated at all, and the production difficulty is also moderate. The people in charge could find nothing wrong with it, but they also had no strong reasons to agree with it.

The meeting was somewhat deadlocked.

Chen She still put on a firm expression. He knew that all that needed to be said had been said. If he wanted to promote this Mewtwo, he could only use his steely will.

Anyway, as long as you show confidence, others will definitely give in.

After a brief stalemate, the people in charge finally compromised.

Although they felt that this Mewtwo didn't look like it would make a lot of money, they didn't have a better proposal that could convince Chen She.

Zhao Zhen thought about it and then said: "Mr. Chen, I have a little suggestion."

"If this Mewtwo is fully developed, it will cost a lot of money, and our company's current financial situation may be unsustainable."

"In my opinion, it's better to do this. Let's make a small trial version first and simply take a look at the word-of-mouth and reviews on the Internet."

"If the reviews are good, we will continue to produce the subsequent parts."

"And I think we should not put all our eggs in one basket. We can also consider continuing to improve "Desperate War", or simultaneously develop a smaller Mewtwo to create a double insurance."

"What do you think?"

Other people in charge also agreed.

Apparently they all thought the stakes of The Ember Will Go Out were simply too high.

Once there is a loss, it will be the military expenses of the resistance army, which is really heartbreaking.

Zhao Zhen's proposal was more stable and easier for them to accept.

Chen She thought about it and nodded: "Okay."

On the one hand, he considered that if he forced the promotion of this Mewtwo, but ended up losing money, his prestige in the eyes of the person in charge would be damaged, and future work would be difficult to carry out.

On the other hand, I also think that in addition to the Mewtwo that is bound to lose money in "The Ember Will Go Out", we should find a way to develop a smaller Mewtwo as a guarantee to make a small profit.

When the time comes, one of the two Mewtwos succeeds and the other fails, which will not only consume the financial resources of the resistance, but will not damage their prestige.

Maintaining a dynamic balance in this way is most beneficial to you.

Chen She said: "In that case, another Mewtwo, I will think about it carefully when I go back."

"The main mission of this Mewtwo is to win by surprise, and use as little cost as possible to leverage larger profits. It can be regarded as a supplement to "The Ember Will Go Out"."

Everyone agreed on this.

As for the details of the development of this Mewtwo, other people in charge have no control over it, and Chen She can do whatever he wants.

Chen She then said to Zhang Sirui: "I will stay in the company for the next two days to finalize the research and development of Chaomeng. You can go out for me and simply select a few locations for Chaomeng experience stores."

"When the company's issues are resolved, the Chaomeng experience store will also start construction simultaneously."

Zhang Sirui nodded: "Okay, Mr. Chen, I'll take care of it."

…

After the meeting, Chen She took a short rest in his room and briefly conceived another Mewtwo plan.

It's just that most of his inspiration was drained out by "The Ember Will Go Out". Inspiration is not like water in a sponge, it can only be squeezed.

Chen She racked his brains for a long time, but still had no clue. He decided to go to the Mewtwo R&D Department after lunch break to learn about the specific rules of Mewtwo development.

After you have arranged everything for "The Ember Will Go Out", then think about it slowly.

Since the beginning of the game, it can be said to be an art of dancing with shackles.

Mewtwo is an advanced form of the game, but it also cannot escape this pattern.

The so-called shackles here actually refer to technical level.

The gameplay content of the game will be limited by the technical level and investment. Only when the technical level can be reached, many gameplays can be produced.

An excellent designer should maximize the gameplay and content of the game as much as possible within the constraints of technical level.

Although the sensory experience that Mewtwo brings to players completely crushes traditional games and movies, its development is not cost-free.

Likewise, the input-output ratio must be considered and which aspects of limited resources will be most advantageous.

With the same amount of money, you may get rich overnight, or you may lose everything, which is very exciting.

The plan of "The Ember Will Go Out" is generally a plan with no big mistakes. The cost can be high or low. Judging from the situation of "The Ember Will Go Out", there should not be any technical problems that are difficult to solve.

But for another Mewtwo that is being developed at the same time, if you want to use a small amount to make a big difference and get the most revenue with a limited investment, you must deeply consider the production rules of Mewtwo.

Fortunately, Chen She has relatively rich theoretical knowledge, so it shouldn't be difficult to understand the production of Mewtwo in this world.

After the lunch break, Chen She got up and went to the Chaomeng R&D Department.

…

Arriving at the Chaomeng R&D Department, Zhao Zhen was already waiting in advance.

In Chen She's memory, the Chaomeng R&D Department did not have a definite person in charge.

"Desperate Battle" is a Mewtwo that was proposed by the original owner and led by Zhao Zhen in its development.

Mewtwo can be used for daily training. The members of the resistance army originally came from all walks of life, so there are many talents in the resistance army who know how to use the Mewtwo editor. Zhao Zhen gathered them and developed " Desperate Battle".

As for why Zhao Zhen took the lead, it was mainly because no one in the resistance knew how to design Mewtwo. Zhao Zhen was relatively mature and prudent and considered the problem more carefully, so the original owner gave this task to Zhao Zhen.

But Chen She must be somewhat dissatisfied with the current structure of Chaomeng's R&D department.

Because Zhao Zhen's voice was a bit too strong. He was the veteran of the company after all. Chen She was worried that he could not deceive him as he pleased, so he had to find someone in charge who would be absolutely obedient.

Thinking of this, Chen She said to Zhao Zhen: "Uncle Zhao, letting you take the lead in developing Chaomeng was just a temporary measure."

"As a senior executive of the company, you have to be responsible for all aspects of affairs, which involves too much energy. I intend to promote a new person in charge of the Chaomeng R&D Department. What do you think?"

Zhao Zhen was not angry, but was very happy: "Of course that's good, Mr. Chen, if you don't tell me, I was just about to raise this issue."

"But can we find a suitable candidate within our company?"

"I was asked to take over temporarily because we couldn't find anyone with Mewtwo's design talents."

Chen She glanced around and took in the entire Chaomeng R&D Department.

He was more casual: "I think we can let that little girl give it a try."

Zhao Zhen looked at Chen She's hand and said with some surprise: "Are you talking about Lin Luxi? She is our Mewtwo editor. She is indeed very skilled in using Mewtwo editor, but she doesn't play much with Mewtwo. Design In terms of concept... I’m afraid there are some shortcomings.”

When Chen She heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

I am really a European emperor, I just picked the most suitable candidate with just a few clicks!

Her proficiency in using the Mewtwo editor shows that she can successfully create Mewtwo.

But Chaomeng doesn't play much, and the game concept is insufficient. Isn't this just letting himself be fooled?

In fact, Chen She chose her mainly because of her appearance.

This young girl named Lin Luxi has picturesque features and bright eyes, and her big, smart eyes are indescribably cute.

Her facial features are delicate and exquisite, and her chubby face seems to be smiling, and there are two shallow dimples, just like her name, like a naughty deer jumping over the stream.

Chen She solemnly declared that he is not a loli control.

Whether it is a cute loli, a cold queen or a domineering queen, Chen She actually accepts everyone, as long as they are good-looking.

The reason why Chen She chose her at once is mainly because this cute girl is really out of place among the rebels and is quite conspicuous.

There are many female rebels in the Chen Group, and there are also several leaders. But these heroic female warriors look like heroines, and they are not inferior to men at all.

Chen She wanted to choose a simple-minded and relatively easy-to-fool person to be the head of the Super Dream R&D Department. Lin Luxi won directly with her innocent and simple appearance.

After choosing, Chen She found out that she was the Super Dream editor of the R&D department.

Isn't this a coincidence?

Chen She immediately decided: "That's her! I think she has great potential."

"The lack of design concepts can be cultivated slowly, that's easy to say."
