Chapter 3: Capitalists don’t take you like this!

Sitting in front of the computer, Chen Xu basically had a general understanding of the current situation.

In the game industry, this is the direction it is aimed at.

But even if you decide to make a game, it’s not that simple.

Despite the black technology in this world, it is not necessary to build the underlying code for developing games directly.

But art, music, modeling, etc., all of them can’t be left out.

Moreover, Chen Xu himself is quite embarrassed at the moment.

First of all, he does not have the title of game designer, and he has very few resources to use.

Although Chen Xu estimated, such as some classic small independent games in the previous life, I have enough resources .

But the key point is that he doesn’t have much money on him.

After all, it didn’t take long for me to graduate, and it was located in the magic capital, although it was not the center but the suburbs.

But the cost of living is also quite high, and I have only saved more than 10,000 yuan in total.

Put aside the system first, after all, this thing has to produce its own works before it can collect points.

In addition, this does not provide the function of changing points to money, which is ruthless!

“We have to find a way to make money.” Chen Xu touched his chin and thought to himself.

While searching for various information on the Internet, to learn about all aspects of the game industry in this world.

On the other hand, it was also conceived in my mind.

However, after exiting the webpage and seeing a folder on the desktop, Chen Xu’s eyes lit up.

Inside the file are more than a dozen colored articles .

In terms of content, it is the story of some cool ladies playing water volleyball.

The melody of the story is positive, fully demonstrating the vitality and high fighting spirit of the young girls.

According to the memory in his mind, these manga were not drawn by him, but were given to him by a senior sister from the same college to help paint them.

Looking at these invigorating articles, Chen Xu already had a decision in his hand.

The first work that came with money, he already had an idea.

A domestic beautiful girl matchmaking game that was loved by players in the past life: “Mirror” (mirror)

Was selected as the second most praised game in 2018, topped the global daily best-selling list on the steam platform, with a total of 71,000 reviews, of which nearly 69,000 reviews are positive, and even most of the other 2,000 reviews are for Bad reviews given for playing tricks.

The reason for choosing this game is also very simple.

On the one hand, this game, which involves game modeling, can basically be said to be absent.

On the other hand, most of the content of this game can be self-produced at Chen Xu’s level.

And the characteristics of the game, in the case of not having much financial publicity, compared to other games, it can be said that the game “Magic Mirror” has a unique advantage.

In terms of quickly accumulating the money cost, it can be said that “Magic Mirror” is the best choice.

Of course, some of the more over-the-line content still needs to be changed.

“However, if you rely on one person alone, it will still take some time. I have to find a helper.” After making a decision, Chen Xu thought about it, and he also had an idea in his hand.

But before that, let’s solve the stomach problem first.

Feeling a burst of hunger, Chen Xu got up and took the keys and mobile phone on the table, ready to go downstairs and find a restaurant to solve his physical problems.

…………

“Never underestimate the meat cutters of any Lanzhou noodle restaurant. What an amazing knife skill!”

Chen Xu’s chopsticks picked up a piece of beef as thin as a cicada’s wings and sighed.

Dipped in the soup of the ramen, the beef even gave Chen Xu a crystal clear feeling.

Six slices of beef are spread on the ramen noodles, with chopped green onion and coriander on the side.

Whether it is a previous life or a parallel world, this beef is one word anyway: thin.

Although the amount of meat is really not enough to stick between the teeth, the noodles are still delicious.

It is very strong, and the noodle soup boiled from the beef bones is also very delicious.

After eating and drinking, Chen Xu paid the bill and left the noodle shop, and dialed a phone number on the way home.

After about three rings, the phone connected.

“Sister, the drawing you gave me before has been completed, and I will send it to you.”

“Also, do you have time tomorrow, senpai? I have something to discuss with you.”

“No problem, see you tomorrow afternoon at the island coffee at the crossroads of the Garden Community.”

Putting down the phone, Chen Xu stretched.

It has been decided that the next first pot of money will be obtained by “Magic Mirror”.

But all the work requires him to do it alone.

Chen Xu estimated that it would take him about two months to get “Magic Mirror” out of this workload.

This is still the case of the long hours.

So if possible, finding a helper is the best thing to do.

But if it doesn’t work, I don’t know.

…………

One o’clock in the afternoon.

Chen Xu came to the island coffee at the agreed time.

In the lobby on the first floor by the window, there was a girl about twenty-four years old wearing glasses.

The other party was wearing a white casual suit and was sitting there listening to music with headphones on.

“Sister Ruan, sorry to bother you.” He walked up to Chen Xu and greeted her.

“No trouble, my house happens to be nearby.” Ruan Ningxue, who took off her headphones, smiled lightly and shook her head.

Without waiting for Chen Xu to continue, Ruan Ningxue looked at the other party happily and said, “So Chen Xu, what are you trying to talk to me about, have you finally figured out that you are willing to come to my studio? Actually, I told you that I have been working hard on comics, Very unwise.”

“You can hone yourself from the fanbook first, and then change careers. Many famous teachers in the industry used to draw fan books for their vests!”

“And I saw your coloring pictures, you are very talented!”

Ruan Ningxue said to Chen Xu very seriously.

“Cough cough… Well, I appreciate your kindness, senior, but I didn’t come to you today for this.” Chen Xu coughed a little awkwardly.

The other party is the senior sister of Chen Xu’s class.

Just like Chen Xu who wanted to be a cartoonist before, Ruan Ningxue did the same.

It’s just that the other party’s path is a little different, that is, compared with Chen Xu’s repeated defeats and battles, Ruan Ningxue’s starting to draw fanbooks.

Relying on this piece of income is at least not worrying, and in her words, becoming a best-selling doujinshi artist, and then turning into a full-fledged cartoonist after gaining fame, this is also a better road to success!

As for what doujinshi?

Naturally, it is a fan book that tells beautiful love stories. Of course, sometimes it may not be so beautiful.

As a senior sister, Ruan Ningxue thought that Chen Xu was very talented, and always wanted to bring him to join the team.

Realizing that the topic was a little off, and there was a high probability that he was going to shift to this matter again, Chen Xu immediately said what he wanted to ask Ruan Ningxue for help today.

“Eh… you want to switch to gaming?”

Hearing Chen Xu’s words, Ruan Ningxue’s eyes widened, as if she had heard something incredible.

“My original idea was just to show the story to others. Whether it’s a comic or a game, it’s actually just a carrier.” Chen Xu told Ruan Ningxue the reason he had already thought of.

“And there are many examples in the industry who have turned from cartoonists or novelists to become directors and game designers.” Chen Xu said with a smile.

After all, unlike the previous life, thanks to the development of technology, the basic threshold of all walks of life has been lowered a lot.

Therefore, in the world entertainment industry, there are really not many examples of cross-border.

Of course, if you can still succeed after crossing the border, that is another matter.

“That’s not the point, okay!” Ruan Ningxue rolled her eyes: “If you don’t cover food, don’t cover it, you will still be in arrears for the illustration money! So Chen Xu, are you trying to make me work?”

If the person sitting across from her is not her junior, she still wants to keep bringing Chen Xu to join the team.

Ruan Ningxue will definitely leave immediately, because she looks like a lion no matter what.

Damn capitalist, this is the labor force who wants to work her for free!

No, the capitalists don’t bring such!
