An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 124: Serious Nonsense (14)

Poaching?

What the hell?

Hao Yun turned around in a daze, only to see an acquaintance looking at him with a smile on his face.

This person is none other than Xu Qianshi, the CEO of Rice Entertainment!

Well, it might be a bit of an exaggeration to say that they are acquaintances, but there are still chances.

Hao Yun was obviously not the only one who was surprised. The senior brothers and sisters who were watching from afar also showed surprise expressions on their faces.

But anyone who works in the Internet industry or intends to develop in the direction of new media, there is no one who does not know the name Xu Qianshi.

As the leader of Rice Entertainment, it can be said that Rice Group expanded from a pure electronics industry giant to the entertainment field, and developed its own entertainment industry ecological chain, which was promoted by Mr. Xu.

"What the hell? Brother Hao actually knows Mr. Xu?"

"Judging from Mr. Xu's tone, the relationship between the two of them is not shallow?"

"No wonder 2048 sold for 1 million... there is still such a relationship."

"Hiss... But why do I think Yunmeng Group has sold out at a loss?"

"Mr. Xu?" He didn't hear the discussion next to him, Hao Yun was slightly taken aback when he saw that face, and then said with a smile, "Why are you here?"

Xu Qianshi chuckled and said in a teasing tone.

"Jiangcheng University is also the number one university in the middle of summer. Is there any problem for me to recruit here? Besides, you just poached an excellent employee from me. I have to recruit someone to fill the vacant position?"

"Poaching?" Hearing this word again, Hao Yun said a little confusedly, "Is there... is there some misunderstanding in it?"

Xu Qianshi seemed to be smiling, but he didn't say anything clearly.

Then Li Zongzheng tugged Hao Yun's sleeve under the table with some guilt, and said in a low voice.

"boss."

"What's wrong?" Hao Yun glanced at him.

Li Zongzheng said in a low voice: "...Du Ziteng who joined the job a few days ago, his former employer seems to be the Rice Group."

I go?

Really poaching?

Hao Yun was surprised, but he didn't take it seriously, and was even a little proud.

Being able to attract talents from Dami Group is not something ordinary companies can do.

This shows what?

It means that not only myself, but also outsiders can see that the future of Yunmeng Group is boundless!

As for whether it will affect the relationship between Yunmeng Group and Rice Group, Hao Yun is not worried at all.

If you dig it, you dig it. Job-hopping is a normal behavior. He didn't think Xu Qianshi would find fault with him, so he said it confidently.

"Oh, it seems that there is such a thing...then I will replace that employee, thank you Mr. Xu for his training!"

Originally, Xu Qianshi really didn't take this matter seriously, but when he heard Hao Yun say this confidently, he almost got angry and suffered internal injuries.

Good guy, are you quite proud?

"You don't feel embarrassed at all?" Xu Qianshi couldn't help asking.

Hao Yun said helplessly: "This... what can I do? Others think that they have a better future with us, and they went through the normal resignation procedures. I think he is a good person, so I signed it... Mr. Xu will not come here for such a trivial matter. Find me to ask the teacher to blame."

After staring at Hao Yun for a while, Xu Qianshi took a stool from the side and sat down in front of the recruitment booth, without continuing the previous topic, he spoke.

"Don't you wonder what I'm doing here?"

"...Aren't you here to recruit?" Hao Yun was puzzled, this guy said that a few seconds ago, right?

"Yes, and no," threw out such a sentence ambiguously, Xu Qianshi looked at him and continued, "Let's chat casually, what do you think of Rice Entertainment."

This question is quite interesting.

To be honest, Hao Yun didn't have any opinion. After all, Xu Qianshi was a senior in this industry. He started his own business for less than two months, and he was a complete rookie in the business.

As for games...

This is what he is good at, after all, he was a game designer in his previous life. Even if most of the memory is covered with a veil, some experiences about design concepts are more or less retained.

For this parallel world where the development history of the video game industry is less than 20 years old, many design concepts can be regarded as dimensionality reduction blows. And this point from the popularity of 2048, and the "cemetery" has caused many people in the industry and players to think deeply about the game industry, which is enough to illustrate this problem.

Thinking of this, Hao Yun also gained some confidence, so he talked in a chatty tone.

"I don't know anything else, but as far as rice entertainment's game industry is concerned, I think you have narrowed the road."

Upon hearing this sentence, not only Xu Qianshi was stunned, but Li Zongzheng and Sun Xiaoteng who were sitting next to him were also stunned.

this……

Opposite is the CEO of Rice Entertainment!

Isn't that too tactful?

What was even more surprising was that the senior brothers and sisters who had been paying attention to this side all had surprised expressions on their faces.

Fuck?

This junior brother is a bit arrogant, and he actually said directly to Mr. Xu that you have narrowed the road.

This is beyond what can be described in a sentence!

However, Xu Qianshi is not a person with a small belly, instead of being angry, he looked at Hao Yun with interest.

"Do you think we have narrowed the road? Then tell me how it is narrowed."

"I heard that Rice Group has acquired a lot of game studios, right? If I remember correctly, there is the Great Qin Empire in China, and Alpha Light in foreign countries...these are the top 3A game producers in the industry." Hao Yun said.

Li Zongzheng, who was sitting next to him, nodded. He had heard of these names before, and he was even a fan of the former.

It is no exaggeration to say that at least half of the reason why he dreams of becoming a world-renowned game designer who develops 3A masterpieces is because of the action games of the Great Qin Empire.

Xu Qianshi didn't say anything, but just waited for Hao Yun to continue.

"Although I don't know the agreement between you and those game studios, but in the past two years, the works produced by these game studios are either sequels of some fried rice, or remakes of previous popular works. At the moment... In short, they are some games with excellent graphics, but the gameplay is almost the same. The theme is mainly action drama, and there are also some shooting, racing and strategy games, am I right?"

"Is there any problem?" Xu Qianshi looked at Hao Yun and asked.

"Of course! The problem is that games are much more than that."

Hearing this sentence, Xu Qianshi was stunned, frowned slightly and said.

"What does it mean?"

"It's literally." Hao Yun smiled lightly, and combined with his previous work experience, he talked about his understanding of the game, "It doesn't matter if it's just to make money, but if you want to create a popular IP, you only need excellent graphics and A rich plot is not enough. In the final analysis, the game is a tool to entertain people. The core is to make people relax and happy, but it is human nature to hate repetitive work. If there is no change in the fundamental gameplay...why don’t people choose the screen Excellent movies, or just choose those novels with excellent plots?"

Xu Qianshi fell into deep thought, as if he was seriously thinking about this question.

Hao Yun continued, "Based on my own feelings, I think games have their own unique advantages compared to other content media, and that is interactivity, and the popular point is gameplay."

Xu Qianshi: "You mean, the gameplay is the core of the game?"

Hao Yun: "Almost, even if the picture is simple and the plot is monotonous, as long as the gameplay is interesting enough, it can still become an excellent work. On the contrary, it needs to rely on graphics, plot or even music to make up for the lack of gameplay. I think that as a game It's definitely a failure."

Xu Qianshi suddenly smiled and said, "Has this theory been tested by the market?"

"How can it be considered that it has passed the test of the market?" Hao Yun asked with a smile, "Does 2048 count, or a jump, or even escape from the temple? In terms of the three dimensions of screen, plot and sound effects, I would not give it a score. Too much, but that doesn't prevent them from still being somewhat successful."

In fact, there are many more examples that Hao Yun wanted to give, but those examples were left behind in his previous life, leaving only some vague shadows.

In fact, this is inevitable.

After all, the speed of civilianization of the electronic industry in this era is too fast. It is almost 18 years from the first year of the new calendar to the present, and Hao Yun has completed the journey that Hao Yun took almost half a century in the world in his previous life. .

Many works in the era of picture tubes have never been born in this era. The earliest game on the civilian market, even with an LCD screen, was replaced by more advanced OLEDs in less than two years. Now quantum dot display technology is even more popular. the concept of.

As for cpu and memory, it is even more exaggerated.

So much so that the kind of arcade game machine that Hao Yun remembered, as well as the Xiaobawang and red and white machines that he often played when he was a child, have never appeared in this world.

After all, gameplay and creativity are difficult to achieve overnight, and many things take time to settle.

After listening to Hao Yun's words, Xu Qianshi was momentarily at a loss for words, and wanted to refute but couldn't find a suitable reason.

You said that 2048 is not popular... But it is the product of its own agency, and it is because of this product that it checks and balances the pineapple speed of pineapple mobile phone.

As for the escape from the temple, not to mention, the parkour games on the market now have a new category, and this category is named after the escape from the temple.

Suddenly there was a vague feeling in his heart, maybe there is another possibility in the game industry he is familiar with, but he couldn't find a suitable word to describe this feeling.

Until, Hao Yun's next sentence——

"I think instead of getting more and more complicated on the two roads of graphics and plot, it's better to try to develop some small and beautiful games."

"...Small and beautiful?"

"That's right," Hao Yun nodded, and said in a meaningful tone, "Let the game return to the game, the gameplay is the core of the game!"

Boom!

Xu Qianshi felt as if a door had been pushed open in his heart, and at this moment he finally found the answer to the question that he had been puzzling over for a long time.

This is not just a problem of rice entertainment, but also a problem facing the entire game industry today!

A large number of games with excellent picture quality and lack of content are flooding the entire game market, and everyone is crowded on the same track. Isn't this the reason why the game production teams acquired by Rice Entertainment have gone downhill without exception?

And isn't this the reason why skit-level games like 2048 and Temple Run can stand out from the public's vision?

At least one of the reasons!

His eyes became brighter and brighter, and Xu Qianshi stared at Hao Yun with piercing eyes.

This guy is a talent!

What a shame to study here!

Damn, I really want this guy!

This look made Hao Yun's heart tremble, and just when he was about to say something, a system pop-up window suddenly appeared in front of him.

[System prompt: Xu Qianshi has obtained the "enlightenment" state]

[Congratulations to the host for getting the reward: Lucky Gem (Quality: S)]

Fuck?

What the hell is enlightenment?

But this guy has no potential value... By the way, is this considered to have enlightened Mr. Xu?

And this lucky S gemstone, what is the use of it!

Since knocking on a gem last time, he felt that he had never had any real luck so far, instead he stumbled on pork.

Just when Hao Yun was in a daze, a strange voice suddenly floated from the side along with a few hearty applause.

"Wonderful! Really wonderful!"

I saw a man with neatly combed hair who looked about thirty or forty years old came here and looked at Hao Yun with a smile on his face.

"Student, are you interested in joining our Longwei Group?"
