185. Do You Really Think Your Mother Is A Wonderful World Where Money Is Earned Together?
Time is what Ye Yu lacks the most right now.
In three months, the annual global TGA exhibition will be held in New York, Magnesium Country.
The full name of TGA is The.game, awards ceremony.
This award is jointly organized by Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo and Valve.
Its biggest award, the Best Game of the Year Award, is equivalent to the Oscars in the game industry, and is very important.
At that time, Ye Yu, the regional star company that developed Call of Duty, will definitely be invited to participate.
Everyone knows that Call of Duty will kill the list and get all the awards that can be won.
GTA does not count, because it is still only in the closed beta stage, and it is not counted as the launch, so at most it will get a most anticipated award.
At the same time, the exhibition is not only an award ceremony, but also other major game manufacturers choose to release the trailer of their next game at the exhibition, so as to gain a lot of attention.
So Ye Yu must participate in this exhibition, he has three months left.
In three months, he had to come up with a trailer for "Black Punk 2077" that would once again shock the gaming world.
Time is tight and tasks are heavy, so you have to start preparing now.
The first thing I did was to spend 30 billion yuan to buy a piece of land in the suburbs of Shanghai.
This is a fucking outrageous and crazy idea.
On the one hand, the higher-ups now expect Ye Yu to quickly spend the money he has on hand.
Since the release of Call of Duty, a total of more than 30 million copies have been sold, and this revenue has reached more than 10 billion.
Excluding the tax part, plus the billions previously obtained from Bangzi Country.
The biggest money came from the joint venture with Tenghua to engage in virtual currency, as well as his shares in Goose Factory.
So now Ye Yu already has an exaggerated net worth of more than 40 billion yuan.
Such an exaggerated sum of money, even Tenghua would have to be speechless.
Because this is serious cash. In the financial world, with 10 billion cash, some actions can leverage at least 100 billion book funds.
So I want to know how much pressure Ye Yu is under now.
With so much money, put it in the bank to eat interest, even if it is the most mentally handicapped regular five-cent interest, the daily interest income is as high as more than five million, every day!
So the higher-ups don't like to put so much money in the bank, and the money that flows is money.
A few days ago, Ye Yu was often approached by someone with a very high status, who even persuaded and suggested a lot of project proposals for Ye Yu.
Even now, as long as Ye Yu says something, there will be at least one strengthened person blocking the downstairs of the Goose Factory to see Ye Yu.
So no way, spend money, what can I do if I have money.
Lu Xun once said that the end of the universe is real estate.
So going around, Ye Yu's money still has to be spent on real estate projects.
It's just that he won't build a building and sell a house.
Instead, I want to build a miniature version of Night City in an extremely crazy way.
The budgeted price is 30 billion, and if it is not enough, it can be added. After all, when GTA is officially released, the recovery of 10 billion a year is the same as playing, and there is no shortage of money at all.
So this requires Tenghua to help with the work.
Buy a large enough piece of land in the suburbs, but not too far from the city, preferably within three hours of driving.
"Then it's building houses, all kinds of fancy conceptual buildings."
"Let some national construction designers come over and ask them to draw some cool and inhabitable architectural drawings.
In the office, Ye Yu closed his eyes and calculated his thoughts in his mind.
Opposite him, Teng Hua poked there with his arms folded, and there were seven or eight senior executives around him.
These people were all looking at Ye Yu with crazy eyes.
"Uh......Sorry, let me interrupt." Teng Hua said.
"Buying land, building buildings, these are all fine."
"But I want to ask, what is your purpose?"
"What are you doing all this for?"
"Do you want to build an industrial park like Ali?"
Ye Yu nodded: "That's almost what it means."
Saying that, Ye Yu sighed, "I want to make a game.
"A game that connects to the real world."
"This game will have a huge amount of side quests. Just these unexpected random events will take at least 100 hours of playing time."
"And the main plot will be exaggerated to about 200 hours.
"Cyberpunk is a futuristic high-tech city."
"In this city called Night City, any fantasies of our generation about the future can be realized.
"Bionic people, robots, and highly technological transformations of the human body."
"Autopilot, brain computer, suspension vehicle."
"Wait, add it up, this game can guarantee players to play for at least five years.
"For at least five years, I won't get bored or tired."
"So, the amount of engineering for this kind of game will be unprecedented.
"But the good news is, I have the technology and I have the money."
"I just need to find a lot of people, move bricks like ants, and build this city.
"So I need to build a Night City in reality."
"Partly because I like it, I have too much money, I'm bloated."
"On the other hand, after it is completed, we can build a theme park. Although the buildings inside are exaggerated, they can indeed be lived in, have practical value, and sell the building.
"The third point is because of the necessity of character performance."
VR games, or 3A games with a large amount of engineering, and even movies must use motion capture technology.
The so-called motion capture is to let the actor wear a special suit with many cursors on it, and assume some cameras around it.
In this way, the actors' movements and expressions can be captured even.
With this, the characters in the game will not look so weird and stiff when they move around.
The group members of Hengdian Film and Television City can be counted by tons, as many as they want.
So you just need to let them wear motion capture costumes and perform according to the script.
For example, in a restaurant, actors play the role of the boss, the cook, the diners, just follow the daily routine, and also say some specific lines that echo the future worldview.
Another example is driving. When players drive a luxury car rampage in Night City, they always expect to see some reactions.
The person hit by the car may get out of the car and fight, may swear and run away, or just draw a gun and fight.
In the open world, players are very idle. They will wander around the world to find all kinds of interesting things.
For example, if you can see someone playing mahjong, players may be curious to join in the fun.
If he wins, he may happily collect the money.
If you lose, the player may suddenly get violent, take out a rocket from his crotch and hit it.
At the same time, the player might swear at the password and the next house will not fucking play.
It is these details, the more real, can bring players a better sense of immersion.
Because Ye Yu has the technology given by his own system, this task is quite easy.
This technology alone is enough for the goose factory to learn for a long time.
"For example, if I were a player and Tenghua was taking a shit right now, I used hacking techniques to break open the toilet door and break in.
"How do you react when you encounter this situation?"
Hearing this, Teng Hua raised his chin slightly in awe: "Going to the toilet was interrupted..."
"Would you immediately cover your pants and swear at the street? Drive people out."
Ye Yu nodded: "Yes, I was scolded by you, but I went out because I wanted to draw a gun, and then I opened the door and took a gun to fuck you, how would you react?"
"The first time I was interrupted, I would have two reactions?"
"The first is to quickly pull up your pants, and the second is to go to the bathroom angrily."
"So, we have to predict what the player is thinking, maybe he will go out laughing, maybe he will shoot you right away."
"Why do players play games?"
"It's because the game world allows them to do things they dare not do in the real world."
"NPCs in these games have to respond to what normal people would react."
"The accumulation of these details can keep players immersed in it every moment, with an average event of three minutes, and they will never feel bored."
"So if you think about it, there are at least five hundred group actors who have to play these NPCs, and the amount of lines and texts may not be enough for these people."
"Make games, especially open world games. Use the word 'maybe' a lot."
"The player might be this way, maybe that way."
"Predict their thoughts, give them what they want, and he will willingly give you the money with a smile.
"To make money, it's not that you deliberately set the difficulty for the player, and then renew the 598 gift package for him."
"It's about making him willing to give you money without complaint."
"In this way, you don't need to deliberately ask for word of mouth, they will deliver it to your door."
"The Goose Factory has a bad reputation, you and I know that. Whenever the logo of the Goose Factory is hung, the players will scold without looking at it. Who is to blame?"
"You always say that you want players to take off their colored glasses, but what have you done? Keep launching new skins and gift packs?"
"It should be, use your work to pick off the colored glasses of the players!"
"Call of Duty has been released until now, has any player sprayed me?"
"If you seriously settle down to make a good game, players will point their noses and scold them all the time? It's not a big hatred.
"Your goose factory has ten times more money than mine. You want to be famous but you don't want to spend money. Do you really think players are fools?"
As he said that, seeing Ye Yu was about to curse again, Teng Hua hurriedly stopped him:
"Okay, okay, I get it, can you fucking save me some face, this is my office after all.
"I know about the group performance, and I will find someone to do it."
"What about the dubbing? You said that this game needs to be fully dubbed in Chinese, and it needs to be localized, so it can't be translated?"
Ye Yu nodded: "Yes, this is also an extremely important point."
"The market for domestic players is huge."
……ask for flowers……
"And they also need a game that can really have Chinese dubbing, and the subtitles must be in Simplified Chinese.
"In the past, domestic players didn't have a choice, and it was already a big deal for foreign games to support traditional Chinese."
"Yes, players with traditional Chinese subtitles can also understand it, but it is not as comfortable as simplified Chinese after all."
"Also, it's a form of respect."
"If you want to earn money from our players in Dragon Kingdom, why don't you give Chinese subtitles, shoddy translations that look like shit, and traditional Chinese subtitles like alms?"
"So this has to be done."
"And dubbing is even more important."
"Some games do have Chinese dubbing, but it's awkward how you listen to it, right."
"He speaks Mandarin very well, and occasionally swears dirty words like trampling horses."
"However, this kind of dubbing always sounds too calm."
"The characters are running and jumping, and they are very emotional, but when they speak their lines, they feel like they are sitting and talking, which is too plain.
"If you listen to it too much, it will be a bit of a drama, and you can't always immerse yourself in it, right?"
"This is because the voice actors are really standing still and reading their lines. They themselves don't take on the roles themselves, and they don't have such strong emotions, so the words come out very calmly, which is very contrary to harmony."
"And that's one of the reasons I wanted to build a Night City."
"The group performances of passer-by NPCs are better.
"For important roles, even the voice actors of the main characters, we need to find the best."
"Even if you spend a lot of money to find decent actors."
"Build a city, stuff them in, let them live in this city, let them have the feeling that they are really this character."
0
"When dubbing, you must act according to the scene, and you must move.
"It's laborious and expensive."
"But it's necessary, so the characters can deliver really good lines."
"You can handle this matter. I will give you the character information sheet in a few days, and use the resources of the goose factory to find someone according to the conditions."
"But!" Ye Yu said, knocking on the table and saying with emphasis:
"Look for good actors, decent actors with acting skills."
"If you're looking for some kind of vase female star who can't speak lines well, then we'll take care of it."
"I am willing to pay more for good actors, and they are worth the price."
"This is related to the turnaround of your goose factory's reputation, you weigh it."
"Also, take care of your subordinates."
"These actors are very important, very expensive, and they can make a lot of money with this wave."
"So there are a lot of things that can be manipulated in it. Take care of your subordinates and don't let them charge money for petty tricks."
"As long as I find something wrong, we will stop cooperating."
"This is my bottom line, even if you touch a little bit, I will..."
After finishing speaking, Ye Yu casually picked up an orange on the table, squeezed it until the juice flowed all over the floor.
Seeing this, Teng Hua rolled his eyes and glared at the others.
This is outrageous, Ye Yu is becoming more irritable in front of him now, a man in his twenties actually trains him like a dog.
"Tsk...then, you said so much."
"I admit that I was shocked by the size of the cake. I also believe that you really have this technique."
"However, no matter how fast we are, if we really want to make the imaginary game, even if you already have a semi-finished product, it will take at least three years, right?"
"Three years, thousands of actors, and 10,000 employees in my goose factory."
"In the initial stage of investment, 30 billion yuan has to be thrown out to build a building on the spot...
"Is it really worth doing this?"
"I don't care about your money, but on my side, if I want to use so much money, I have to give an explanation to other shareholders."
"I don't own the goose factory alone, and major foreign shareholders are also staring at me."
"If you want them to pay, you must at least ask me to give them something to watch, such as... a real machine demonstration, a trailer or something?"
"To attract people to invest, you have to tell them stories."
Hearing this, Ye Yu looked at Teng Hua, raised his eyebrows and said:
"Number one, I think it's worth it."
"Second, who said that you let your shareholders pay for it."
"This is my game. What I need to recruit you is the resources you have, and I'm lazy."
"I can find these things myself, but it takes a little more effort, and it takes time for me to receive them.
"Cyberpunk means high-tech low life, a world where capital controls everything."
"Let them join the group and manage me as a shareholder in turn? Engage in another virtual currency war? Are you really playing cyberpunk?"
"Is it true that Nima is a wonderful world where everyone earns money together?"
"What do you think, you have nothing to do when you're full?"
