Chapter 202 Are you in charge of Dead Space?
As the protagonist of the game?
Operation Officer Liu smiled.
Director Jin also laughed.
For Operation Officer Liu, it is actually the same whether it is an important role or a main role. This is not difficult, and there are a lot of appreciation conditions to talk about.
As long as the price is right, the Nassian replacement is nothing more than a 'request from the top', and the development team has to follow it no matter what.
In the same way, if the money is in place, even the plot can be modified for you.
This is what Operation Officer Liu thinks.
After all, it is a product for making money, as long as it can satisfy Party A.
Director Jin even felt normal.
As a person who has made his mark in the film and television industry, it is common for him to temporarily change the protagonist.
Especially in the film and television industry, it is quite normal for the original protagonist to be replaced.
After all, business needs to be done, and favors need to be sold.
If the audience doesn't buy it and start a fight, then just find any reason, such as a scandal, to fool most of the audience and expose the protagonist's replacement.
Followed by filming and broadcasting of stills, someone always buys it.
The game should be no exception.
Just change roles, what's the big deal?
For the sake of political correctness, foreign film and television circles even changed the roles to black people.
Is there a problem?
After Operation Officer Liu confirmed that Director Jin chose "Time to Die", the exchange came to an end.
Because the next conversation involves cooperation, we have to choose an elegant place to start the conversation.
Director Jin didn't finish listening to the long speech after the technical game online conference. His purpose of coming here has been achieved, and he can't understand it if he stays here, so it's better to go back and rest early.
So he greeted Operation Officer Liu and got up to leave.
Now that the conditions have been put forward, let's wait for the situation on Unlimited Online Entertainment.
They agreed, then they would pay some money, get the film and television adaptation rights and lead roles, and start building momentum for the newcomer's debut.
If you don’t agree, that’s okay. Anyway, there is a "Blood Scientist" on Jiyou that hasn’t been released yet, so you can talk to them then.
In short, the meaning of Director Jin is very simple.
Games are just a tool for newcomers.
Since it is a tool, you can choose from multiple options, and choose the one that is better.
No matter how hot and popular this tool is, it’s just a matter of spending more money.
In the long run, the benefits that a traffic artist can bring are completely negligible for this initial investment.
When it comes to business, no one will struggle with money.
After Director Jin left, Operation Officer Liu asked his secretary to look up information about the game "Dead Time".
Then after listening to the entire press conference, he went back to the hotel to rest without stopping.
The next morning, the secretary sent a message.
Her first sentence was that the company does not have the game "Death Time", and there is not even any relevant information, including the name.
But there is a game with a highly similar name called "Dead Space".
So the secretary asked Mr. Liu if he remembered his name wrong?
Seeing the reply, Liu Operations Officer was a little stunned.
Oh... so it's called "Dead Space"...
That's okay, it doesn't matter what the name is.
The most important thing is that Unlimited Online Entertainment only needs this game.
Then, Operation Officer Liu learned from his secretary that the game "Dead Space" was just a pre-promotion project.
It is one of the promotions that the company will implement in the future, and its main person in charge is Lian, the director of the second product operation department.
Since the game doesn't have any promotional plans yet, it's almost a 'registered seat' in the company.
After learning about it, Operations Officer Liu realized that the game was still in the early development stage, so there was not much information in all aspects, and it was not comprehensive enough.
But this is not important, he believes that as soon as the time is up, the game will be sent to him in the form of a report via internal email for approval.
But these are things for later.
Now, while the game is in the development stage, I have to contact the person in charge and the development team as soon as possible and tell them that they are going to change the leading role.
As for the film and television adaptation rights...
As long as you negotiate with Director Jin, the price is right, and the contract is complete, he will go over it and sign and seal it.
After all, he is the COO.
Many projects that do not affect the operation of the company, he can directly call the shots, and he only needs to report the results to the CEO afterwards.
It is not necessary for him to personally approve and sign, let alone Chairman Liang.
But correspondingly, he needs to take responsibility for the consequences.
This is the disadvantage brought by the position of COO.
After confirming the existence of the game project "Dead Space", Operation Officer Liu contacted Director Jin and made an appointment with him.
At this time, Meng Shu, who was in Shencheng, couldn't think of it.
My own "Dead Space", which has not yet started production, has been targeted for copyright.
Now he is very busy.
Due to the expansion of the company and the increase in personnel, the work that could have been completed in a few days was directly shortened significantly.
The huge amount of art resources made him dizzy, and all kinds of weird creature images began to have aesthetic fatigue.
But the degree of completion is quite high, which makes Meng Shu very satisfied.
There are also scene elements. Under the control of the art director Fang Yuancheng, various decayed and outdated village buildings took shape one by one.
Especially on the original design drawing, it shows a feeling of desolation and backwardness.
If this is placed in the game, it will definitely look good.
Meng Shu even thinks that if the concept design booklet is sold separately, it should be attractive.
But think about it or forget it, it can be sent as a peripheral for free.
After reading the art resources submitted by the employees, Meng Shu called back some that needed to be revised.
The rest was directly thrown into the monkey development tool by him and converted into high-definition textures.
After finishing it, he looked at Chen An's task design again.
There are 14 tasks submitted this time.
are 10 random encounter missions and 4 side missions respectively.
Before this, Meng Shu had shown Chen An the revised VR version of the game script.
So he should be very aware of the difference in plot between the VR version and the PC version of "Dark Forest".
I believe there should be no mistakes in task design.
Thus, Meng Shu spent more than two hours reading all 14 task processes.
Then raised his head and rubbed his swollen head.
Picked up the water glass again, took a sip, and breathed a sigh of relief.
interesting.
This was Meng Shu's first thought after reading the mission process.
Since there is already a PC version of "Dark Forest", the mission designed by Chen An this time can be described as a powerful and unconstrained style.
Among the 14 missions, none of them are modified on the basis of the original game.
All new missions!
One of them even impressed him, or rather surprised him.
That is a side mission numbered New-013, tentatively named [Repeat].
The process inside mainly talks about the ending of the mole team's mission in the forest.
After repeatedly watching this mission, Meng Shu couldn't help but admire Chen An.
Unexpectedly, he could combine the weird environment in the forest to design this kind of mission to show humanity.
It really made him extremely satisfied.
However, he was also very curious, why did the Mole Squad be chosen instead of the residents of the forest for this mission to show humanity?
For this reason, Meng Shu asked Chen An on purpose.
As a result, the latter's answer made his eyes shine.
"Mr. Meng, think about it, this forest is full of mystery and weirdness. If the danger is put on the ordinary residents, then the players can guess with their toes that they will die, so the whole process is nothing new."
"But it's different when it comes to the Mole Squad. They are armed and disciplined, and they are still the task force of the Control Bureau. Players like them with guns and weapons generally feel that they can survive and are safe." sense. But if they are in crisis because of the weirdness of the forest, even the armed ones will give the players a sense of despair with no firepower but no power to resist, and the original sense of security will be gone. And it can be interpreted A contest between modern science and weird mysticism, allowing players to experience the horror that cannot be explained by science."
Meng Shu was very satisfied with Chen An's explanation.
This [repeat] task was also changed to [sound] by him.
Meng Shu believes that in the bizarre forest world, this mission will definitely allow players to feel the insecurity of life and at the same time witness the crimes of human beings.
This is a large side mission, it seems that Chen An's level has improved a lot.
Meng Shu returned to the office and continued to browse the submitted task list.
Suddenly, an idea occurred to him.
Since they all take the forest as the background, why not bury the sensational and classic work in the original world in 1999 as a task egg...
Thinking of this, the corner of Meng Shu's mouth cracked, he plunged into the computer, and began to design an encounter mission that could lead to another game...
While at Unlimited Online Entertainment, the busy supervisor Lian received a message on the internal network.
The first sentence made her frown.
[Hello, Director Li, I am the assistant secretary to the COO of the Operations Department. Are you in charge of Dead Space? ]
I finally recovered! Try it today and see if you can update Chapter 3!
