Number One Game Designer

For Fang Xi, the value of the Lihuo engine that was in front of him was particularly obvious.

Boss Fang looked at the depth-of-field algorithm and made the sound he wanted.

For small game engines, most of them are perfect in one aspect. For example, an engine specializing in 2D games can completely abandon the 3D algorithm framework and physics algorithm framework, and focus on graphics optimization and plane physics algorithm optimization. That's fine.

But for the 3D engine, the functions are complicated and powerful, so what is most needed is to reduce the burden.

It is commonly known as optimization, but the optimization of the game engine itself is not that simple, otherwise it would not be the last time and space. An Unreal 4 engine has been used for nearly ten years.

And the depth-of-field algorithm that Fang Xi saw is an excellent optimization method. Half-processing the scenery that is not clear in the distance saves resources. Dealing with it, Fang Xi can imagine how much the Jinghong engine can reduce the existing configuration requirements.

"Contact this company that makes the 'Lihuo' engine and hire their technical team."

Although I don't understand why Boss Fang is suddenly interested in such a small company, the people below are still ordered to do it.

Turning his head to look at the manufacturer again, Boss Fang didn't care about his order just now. Although companies that independently develop game engines in China's environment are worthy of respect, they are only worthy of respect. After all, everyone is still doing business in the end. , The thought of benevolence is unnecessary. I need a better technical team. The technical team over there may want better treatment. It is normal for people to go to high places.

Boss Fang in the command room was calm, and the scene had entered a stage that all players liked.

As I said before, one of Fang Xi's goals for organizing this carnival is to give those capable but poor producers a chance to make their game dreams come true.

The producer showed his game on stage, and then some investors in the audience bid to buy shares, which is a bit like an auction house. Of course, the games that can enter the Hongyi Carnival have undergone preliminary review. These games From Fang Xi's point of view, after being optimized and packaged and put into the market, if there is no accident, it is a business that will make a profit without losing money. , if there is no boss bidding at the scene, Hongyi will conclude a deal at the initial price.

In other words, for the producer, this "auction" has no risk of passing the auction. There is a big dog like Hongyi at the bottom, and the producers who are qualified to participate have only one feeling: it is stable.

Watching five bosses fighting for a 2D dungeon game on the screen, Lu Wanqi asked:

"Is this what you mean by giving benefits to the people?"

Looking at the smiling face of the producer on the screen, Fang Xi shook his head:

"It's an exaggeration, what benefits the people, everyone is just making money, don't make this kind of aircraft."

After a pause, Fang Xi saw on the screen that the producer originally bought 40% of the game from a 100,000 auctioneer, but was eventually auctioned off by a coal boss at a price of 520,000 yuan. He shook his head and said with a smile:

"In fact, it's just to give everyone a chance to play, to give these bosses a very legitimate opportunity to enter the game market, and to give these hard-working gamers a chance to realize a small dream. Everyone has the best of both worlds, how wonderful."

"But the consumers who are at a disadvantage should be those who participated in the auction. To be honest, these games are still very profitable when they are auctioned at the reserve price. After they raised the price, in the end..." Lu Wanqi disagreed, and stared at Looking at the screen, I simply calculated in my heart and said:

"His game is a standard low-cost production. According to Hongyi's standard, the price is 30 yuan, which means that the boss needs to sell more than 45,000 copies of this game to make money, and I haven't counted our Hongyi's commission. .

"

Fang Xi expressed his admiration for Lu Wanqi's keen numerical intuition, but he still shook his head and said:

"I just said that there are more rich people in this world than you think, and they actually know how to do business better than you. After these games have their investment, they may have money to spend on publicity and optimization. , who knows the final result? This behavior is actually a bit similar to the dolphins on the frontier."

"You calculate the income here, but it may actually be a party for them. Buying it is fun and you can also give away a ticket to the game world. From the time they bid, they can't actually lose money."

Lu Wanqi seemed to understand but not understand.

After talking so much, Fang Xi kept silent. Lu Wanqi was right in what she said at the beginning, these are games with no loss, and if Hong Yi came to collect them, it would be a considerable profit, but Fang Xi Chose to throw those opportunities out.

Distressed? In fact, I don’t feel very distressed, because what Fang Xi knows is that these bosses turned back to make games, and the first cooperation option is still Hongyi, and the loss of the Honghu platform’s harvest... What he told Lu Wanqi just now that these bosses will not lose money is true. , but there is an even bigger truth: he Hongyi is the one who truly makes money without losing money.

And another reason why Fang Xi is in a daze now is because the person who sneaked into the Hongyi Carnival has not yet been found. The seven missing people who were found on the first day were found when Fang Xi asked the AI ​​swordsman to scan frame by frame and drag the net to find them. Afterwards, three people were found and Fang Xi invited them to leave the carnival, and the last four people were still not found.

It sounds unbelievable: Four big living people have to eat, drink and scatter, why can't they find it?

But the reality is that the place Hongyi rented is as big as a university town, and there are food and drinks inside, and this time, the carnival entertains more than 20,000 people every day, and the number of people keeps increasing. The investigations are all in vain, and in the art of war of the ancestors, there are still few tactics like attacking the west and attacking the west?

Therefore, after careful consideration, Fang Xi can only ask the security personnel to increase the investigation of the power supply area. For this place full of AR projections, electricity is the foundation of everything, so Fang Xi can only adopt a defensive posture so far. Let's talk about living in your own life.

This is also the reason why Fang Xi has been frowning all this time. If the remaining four people are not found out, it will always be a factor of instability.

However, the ancestors have an idiom called "Wai Dian Da Ai", and there is also a proverb called: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive."

Almost two minutes after Fang Xi and Lu Wanqi finished talking, the AR projection in the room lit up, and it was the figure of the AI ​​swordsman, and the report was also Gujing Wubo:

"The remaining four unstable factors have been investigated and resolved, and the safety situation of Carnival has returned to good."
