Top game producer

#56 - Promotion and salary increase are a blessing in disguise

The next day.

Wang Jian and his team members sat in the conference room.

Heimi unceremoniously occupied the desk in front of Wang Jian, lying sideways like a long strip. One eye was squinted, and the other was watching them hold the meeting, looking lazy as if to say, "This is my territory!"

Tong Ke giggled and stretched out her finger, waving it in front of Heimi. Every time Heimi stretched out its paw to swat, she quickly withdrew it. The two, a human and a cat, were playing like two little kids, and the others' eyes were shining, itching to join in.

Wang Jian helplessly clapped his hands: "Ahem, we have serious business today, everyone be serious."

The team members then composed themselves and looked at Wang Jian.

Heimi, finding no one to play with it, lazily yawned, curled up into a ball, and closed its eyes.

"The first thing is the sales of 'To the Moon'." Wang Jian looked at everyone with a smile on his face. "Everyone must already know that last night, sales exceeded 100,000! For our Longyuan, it can be said to be a milestone! It's very memorable!"

'To the Moon' was like a child they had nurtured bit by bit. Everyone was genuinely happy that the child had achieved good results, their faces filled with proud smiles, and they spontaneously applauded.

Wang Jian continued: "After deducting platform commissions and taxes, the current revenue is... 2 million!"

2 million!

As the first game of this newly established team, it was a very surprising achievement!

Luo Shuai and Ye Meng even cheered!

"Senior is awesome!"

"Boss is amazing!"

Wang Jian said: "In the past few months, everyone has been very serious about making a good game, and even willing to work overtime to finish the game as soon as possible. I have seen your dedication and efforts. Thank you everyone, you've all worked hard."

"Serving the people!" someone blurted out.

Wang Jian almost choked: "...Anyway, everyone has worked so hard on the game, we have to show some appreciation, right?"

This time, everyone's eyes were filled with anticipation. Ye Meng nervously clasped her little hands together, Luo Shuai licked his lips, and Bai Li Ao stared unblinkingly, afraid of missing out if he blinked.

Wang Jian smiled wickedly and dropped a bombshell: "I've decided to give everyone a bonus of six months' salary! A raise! And give you two weeks of vacation!"

A burst of cheers erupted.

"Yay!"

"Long live the boss!"

"The boss is generous!"

"Boss is amazing!"

Wang Jian himself had been quite tired these past few months and planned to take a good rest during the vacation.

Tong Ke held her chin in her hands, muttering to herself: "Hmm... where should I go to relax for two weeks? It seems like there's an art exhibition at the convention center recently, should I go check it out?"

Luo Shuai grinned, smiling as brightly as a sunflower: "Haha, I have money to buy clothes for my wives! I can also eat crayfish, lamb skewers, pork kidneys, beef brisket, roast goose, roast chicken... to my heart's content!"

Bai Li Ao swallowed: "Brother, don't read them out, I just had breakfast, and I'm getting a little hungry listening to you."

Luo Shuai generously put his arm around Bai Li Ao's shoulder: "You haven't tasted the local delicacies of Yunzhou since you came here, right? I'll treat you to a good meal after work today!"

Wang Jian interjected: "There's a celebration banquet today, let's all go together, my treat."

Ye Meng excitedly shook Bai Xueyao's hand back and forth: "A bonus of six months' salary! And two weeks of vacation! Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, I'm so happy! Let's go to the amusement park tomorrow, okay?"

Bai Xueyao lowered her head shyly, her face slightly red, and responded with one word: "Okay..."

"Let's go to the amusement park, I want to ride the carousel! And eat ice cream! Oh right, Xiaoxue, the newly released movie 'A Pig That Saves the World' has already grossed over three billion, should we go see it?"

"Hmm... I heard it's very good..."

Wang Jian waited for everyone to calm down from their excitement and continued: "The second thing is about the next game. After thinking about it for the past few days, I have a concrete idea."

Bai Li Ao had an admiring expression on his face, thinking to himself: "The boss is indeed the boss, he already has an idea for the next game so quickly.

In the previous company's planning team, it would take at least several months from an idea to the specific architecture of the game, with dozens of meetings to discuss, brainstorming and racking their brains, gradually improving the world view and character settings, and the gameplay... How did it become as simple as breathing with the boss?

I wonder when I can reach the boss's level! No, I would be content if I had one-tenth of the boss's brain!"

Wang Jian said: "Well, the new game is a tower defense game. As for the specific content, I'll tell you when you come back from vacation."

Tower defense? Luo Shuai scratched his head doubtfully, but out of trust in Wang Jian, he didn't say anything.

Ye Meng was even more so, her worship for Wang Jian was basically maxed out.

Bai Li Ao nodded as if he had suddenly realized something, thinking to himself: "Tower defense game, another high-difficulty challenge! I understand, if I want to become a powerful game producer, I must have a heart that is not content with the status quo and dares to face difficulties! Only in this way can I train myself!"

Although everyone trusted him very much, Wang Jian still added: "This tower defense is a brand new version that you haven't played before, and it will definitely become a classic in tower defense games."

"The third thing... is a personal decision of mine."

Wang Jian's expression became serious: "Recently, players have been clamoring for a DLC to release the 'To the Moon' original soundtrack. I want to donate all the income from this DLC to a charity to treat children with autism like Riva. What do you think?"

He wanted to ask for everyone's opinion.

Everyone chimed in: "I think it's a good idea.", "Must support."

Wang Jian looked at the team members' unanimous approval, feeling healed, his heart warmed: "Thank you everyone."

It was such a wonderful thing to make games with like-minded people.

"There's nothing else. Everyone can slack off today. We'll go out and have some fun this afternoon, like singing karaoke or something, and then have dinner together to celebrate, and then take a vacation. Dismissed."

After the others left the conference room, Bai Li Ao said to Wang Jian alone: "Boss, there's one more thing. Several game media contacted me privately, saying they want to interview you, how should I reply?"

By the way, from the next game onwards, Bai Li Ao will switch to being a numerical planner.

When making 'To the Moon', there was a task that needed to be done, so Wang Jian let him be a customer service representative.

He plans to recruit one or two more to fill the gap in these two weeks.

Wang Jian touched his chin with interest: "Game media want to interview? Let me see."
