He sent Fatty Tian away and returned to the program department. Jiang Tao and the others had already cleaned up and were sitting in front of the computer to work. Jiang Tao's goji berries were soaked in a mug.
"I've dealt with your problems at home these days, Luo Hailin, you call all the art and planning, let's have a meeting." Fang Yuan said.
Luo Hailin was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly stood up, first ran to greet Dong Liqun, then ran directly to the art department, and informed them one by one that there was little communication on weekdays, so naturally he would not miss the opportunity at this time.
"Dong Liqun, are you familiar with our engine system these days?" The meeting room is still quite large, and everyone sitting in a circle doesn't seem crowded. Of course, this is also related to the lack of people.
"Boss, it's basically okay. This software is really powerful." Dong Liqun was overjoyed and looked particularly excited.
A good game engine is a powerful thing for planning.
In many cases, it is not that the planning brain is not enough, but the actual conditions limit their performance.
"It's good to be familiar. The worldview planning copy that I asked you to write before, have you written it?" Fang Yuan asked.
"It's finished, does Fang always want to read it now?" Dong Liqun passed the thick stack of printing paper in his hand.
Fang Yuan took it and flipped through it, which made him very surprised, because in "Listening to the Sea Animation", this would never happen. How can the planner write such a detailed worldview and plot outline? It is the opening sentence, the plot Relying on editing, there is no story, hard props collection and promotion, it can be said that it is very awkward.
"I didn't see it, you still have such a level?" Fang Yuan said in surprise.
This copywriting is a game rather than the outline and details of a novel. As long as the content is enriched, there is absolutely no problem in making it into a game.
"Actually, my original ideal was to be a writer, and I wrote for a while, and then became fascinated by the game, so I switched to planning." Dong Liqun was a little embarrassed.
"Yes, I think your story is very attractive, why don't you write it down? It's a pity, if you stick to it, you might be a great writer now." Fang Yuan said with a smile.
"Or don't, let me tell you, writing a novel is a dead end, relying entirely on love to generate electricity. The key is not to know when the electricity was stolen. If I persisted, I would have starved to death."
"It's such an exaggeration. I see those who have persisted in becoming great gods for a few years, and now I don't know how cool they are." Fang Yuan also envied these great gods who can write novels before, thinking that they made money while lying at home. , And you don’t have to be angry outside.
"How many great gods can there be? What are the rest? I changed my career without persisting, and those who persisted went to beg for food." Dong Liqun frantically complained.
"Well, we won't mention this, but you were listening to Hai Animation before, why don't you make a game like this?" Fang Yuan asked curiously.
"Boss, haven't you been listening to the sea class? How come you ask such questions, from project establishment to production, when did we plan something? There is art matter? Isn't it all decided by the top leaders? ?" Dong Liqun said.
Fang Yuan was a little speechless when he heard the words. Hearing how to operate anime, the leader always likes to follow the trend and make one every time he sees a popular game on the market.
However, due to various reasons, it usually takes a year or a half after the follow-up is done. The original explosions are already cold. The key is that the follow-up is not as good as others. In the end, you can’t even drink the soup, but you can get it. But what can I do if I don’t like this?
So planning is a copyist, copying other people's gameplay and plots, art is a P-illustrator, and a program is a porter.
The layman is the expert, and the final result is that the company’s performance is deteriorating day by day. It can only survive by changing skins, changing vests, brushing traffic, and cheating subsidies by a pack of multiple people. Bankruptcy is a matter of time. Everyone knows all the time.
"You are the only one in the planning department. The manpower is definitely not enough. Later, you will find personnel and ask them to recruit some planners. These people will be brought in by you first, and strive to enrich the main plot and side plots as soon as possible."
"President Fang, as long as there are people, I promise to get them out as quickly as possible." Dong Liqun was overjoyed when he heard this. This is a change of promotion. The new recruits are brought by him. In fact, it is no different from him.
"Xiaoya, how's the situation on your side?" Fang Yuan and Dong Liqun finished talking and asked Zhou Xiaoya who was sitting on his right hand.
"Because the workload is relatively large, each person only drew a scene and a character map, you can take a look." Zhou Xiaoya handed over the prepared manuscript paper.
Fang Yuan nodded and expressed his understanding. If you want to keep improving an original painting, it is possible to paint it for ten days and a half. Now it is not easy for everyone to come up with two paintings.
There are five people in the art department, each with two paintings, which means there are ten paintings in total.
Fang Yuan took a look at the characters first, because as explained before, the overall style of the game is fairy tale and realistic style, but everyone still draws differently, and there are differences in the details of character clothing, color matching, etc. It's even bigger.
In the end, Fang Yuan did not choose the most realistic one, but chose a painting with a thick color scheme and a taste of alienation.
As for the five original scenes, Fang Yuan chose the most realistic one.
"Who painted these two pictures?" Fang Yuan raised the two selected pictures.
"Me." Zhou Xiaoya and Li Yanan raised their hands at the same time.
The characters were painted by Li Yanan and the scenes were painted by Zhou Xiaoya.
"My opinion is that these two styles will be used in future games, and you can mention any comments or ideas." Fangyuan said to everyone.
Zhou Xiaoya and Li Yanan wanted to ask why they chose two different styles, while the one who didn't choose also wanted to ask why.
But before they could speak, Dong Liqun said first, "President Fang has chosen a very good one. We have no opinion."
The few people represented all glared at him upon hearing this.
"Oh, why do you think I made a good choice? If you can't make sense, I don't think the beauties of our art department can spare you." Fang Yuan asked with a smile. He wasn't sure if Dong Liqun really knew, or just flattering. .
Dong Liqun didn’t hesitate to hear the words, and explained to everyone: “President Fang said before that the overall game should be realistic style, so the scene chose Zhou Xiaoya, I think everyone should understand the reason?”
Everyone looked at the painting on the table and nodded. Zhou Xiaoya's painting is of a mountain, with dangerous peaks standing upright, grotesque rocks, and bushes and trees more lifelike, more like a photo than a painting.
"This is a mountain in my hometown. I used to sketch against it, so I painted it." Zhou Xiaoya explained.
Dong Liqun continued: “As for the characters, why didn’t Mr. Fang choose the most realistic pair? Instead, he chose this alienated one. It’s because this one is not real, but it’s the most beautiful. For a game, The more realistic the scene, the more substitutable the player.
But few players are willing to accept their true self, they are more willing to accept a more perfect and beautiful self.It's the same reason that people like to take pictures with beauty."
Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this, especially the art girls were deeply impressed.
