Chapter 298

Zhou Qian joined Phoenix company after a short training, and then left Tokyo to pull people from the next week.

She will call Meng Huo every few days to report the situation, but the situation is not as smooth as two people expected. Two weeks later, only three people are willing to participate in the construction of comic street. Readers who have no money, no interest and no plan will not participate.

In particular, the plan is the top priority. Some readers have money and are interested in it, but they have to go to a strange place to start a business, and they can't figure out what to do and what the market environment is like. These people naturally choose to refuse. No one will easily decide such an important thing as opening a shop and starting a business. Most people with economic strength choose to watch, which leads to very few participants.

This result will inevitably disappoint Meng Huo, but as he expected, he let Zhou Qian continue to work. However, at the end of a telephone report, Zhou Qian suddenly asked curiously: "Teacher He Xi, I heard that the game of pet elf... Seems to be called Pokemon? It's going on sale, isn't it? "

"No, I didn't get the news." Meng Huo frowned and asked, "where did you hear that?"

"As your fans said just now, the news has spread." Zhou Qian strange answer: "the source of the information is reliable, seems to be the company's internal people said, how He Xi teacher you don't know?"

Meng Huo really didn't know about it. After the call, he immediately called Hexi to inquire.

As a result, it's different from what Zhou Qian said, "Pokemon" is not about to go on sale, but is about to be completed《 Pokemon finished its main work a long time ago. It was only because Meng Huo sent his staff to produce "godup seed" that he was forced to delay. Some time ago, cherry blossom company expanded its staff, and the people in the game production department returned to their original jobs. They moved to Suhua City, and now they are working hard to produce "Pokemon". It won't be long before it is finished.

Phoenix company leaked out the news that "Pokemon" is about to be completed, but after it was spread out, it soon became on sale in the mouth of readers, causing many people's misunderstanding.

"Can't you do a better job of secrecy, Jose?" Meng Huo sighed: "that game has not passed the test, now it's OK, others all know."

"There's no way, Mr. He Xi..." He Xi's voice is very helpless: "Pokemon has been developed for a long time, and it has been discovered by others for a long time, so we can't hide it... But when it comes to testing, we have finished the test version of it now, teacher. Do you want to try it?"

The voice behind her became expectant again.

"Is the beta ready?" Meng Huo nodded: "then you send someone to bring it. I'll see how the game works."

He was looking forward to the game experience of Pokemon, and he was also very fast. The next day, he let people find Meng Huo with the test handset. Meng Huo played it seriously for a few days. He compared other handheld games, and then let several employees of Cherry Blossom company play them. After that, he came to a disappointing conclusion - unqualified.

It's Meng Huo's conclusion that the trial version of Pokemon has been unanimously praised by other employees, but it's still unqualified. That's because although the employees appreciate the game, they don't think that Pokemon is much more fun than other games on the handset, and everyone's evaluation is consistent - the picture is excellent, But playability is similar to other games.

Meng Huo has the same feeling. According to the general company standards, "Pokemon" must be a very excellent work. But for Meng Huo, it's a bad work. It can't be separated from other games. How can it be compared with Pokemon in his last life?

This game must be rebuilt! Meng Huo issued this order, which made the game production department of Phoenix company in an uproar, and some painters and programmers could not accept it.

"Why? It's a success. Why go back to the furnace and rebuild it? "

"What are our efforts this year?"

These people seem to be frustrated and angry. When the news gets out, He Xi's readers are in an uproar. In fact, the production of this game has been leaked for half a year. Many viewers of "pet elf" are looking forward to its sale. However, just after the news of its sale came out, there was a big turning point, saying that it was going to be rebuilt. Everyone was a little unbelievable.

"Isn't it successful?"

In the forum of he Xizhi's home, the layout of "pet elf" is even more noisy.

"Why go back and rebuild? Isn't that great? "

"What's the matter, what's teacher He Xi thinking?"

Even Meng Huo can feel the agitation on this forum in Jidong. He saw the voice of doubt in his rare last forum, so he specially posted an explanation post."Many people say that Pokemon is a success. I don't deny that. I played the trial version myself. It's really a successful game. But this success is only a success in the general sense. The Pokemon I want is not a game in the general sense. I have higher expectations for it, so I decided to let it go back and rebuild. "

"I think it failed, but I don't want to blame anyone《 "Pokemon" is different from the word adventure game. It is not a game that can be done well by script and character setting. For Pokemon, the fun and playability of the game are the most important. This remake is to make it more interesting. It's not a happy thing for me to let Pokemon go back and rebuild. I hope you and all the staff in the game production department can understand it. "

With this explanation, the situation soon subsided.

Meng Huo had some regrets. The failure of Pokemon was the result of his carelessness. During the period when he left, he occasionally asked about the progress of the game. But in fact, he didn't have much contact with Phoenix company, and most of the time he focused on comics. Before he knew it, people in the game production department moved the game closer to ordinary games.

He has to go back and rebuild, and supervise the production of the game this time. Unfortunately, there is no time now, so he can only put it aside.

"I didn't expect to make a game so troublesome."

Meng Huo belittles games. Real games are different from GALGAME after all. Maybe there is only one game theme that can be successfully produced by providing story scripts and image music. Originally, Meng Huo was still thinking of making world of Warcraft one day, but now he thinks it's just a distant dream.

"In the future, we'd better continue to play GALGAME..."

Considering this, that night, Lin Mingzhe called him and even said it.

"Now that Pokemon has failed, how about making a new word adventure game? Mr. He Xi, it's very simple for you, isn't it? "

The reason for Lin Mingzhe's call is that Meng Huo plans to let the game production department have a collective holiday, "Pokemon" needs supervision, but he is not free now, so he can only give the employees a holiday.

But no one is willing to give up his income, so Lin Mingzhe wants to give these employees a paid vacation with reasonable salary. I'm kidding. These men spent a year making failed works, and now they even have paid vacation. Of course, Lin Mingzhe refuses to accept it. Instead of letting them have a vacation, it's not like letting them do a GALGAME.

"Mr. He Xi, you said at the ceremony that you would let the three winners dub in the new work, right? Then your new work is coming out soon. The word adventure game is good. The development speed of this kind of game is like flying. Now many game companies are ahead of us. Mr. He Xi, you will launch another excellent product to stabilize our position in this market! "

Lin Mingzhe seemed very enthusiastic. Meng Huo wondered why he was so enthusiastic, but he still replied: "what I want to make is an animated film. If you don't want them to have a holiday, I'll arrange them to the animation department to help..."

"No way!"

Meng Huo's proposal was interrupted by Lin Mingzhe. After the financial director was excited, he sighed and revealed: "Teacher He Xi, animated movies are movies. Movies cost too much! You have to think it over carefully. The financial pressure of the company is very heavy now... If you launch a new work, comic and text adventure games are the lowest cost options, and the games can make full use of people. I hope you will give up the idea of movies for the time being. "

Lin Mingzhe told Meng Huo that Phoenix is now facing huge financial pressure.

Phoenix company is not a listed company, the main capital comes from Meng Huo and Xu Jing, and the profits are used in business development. In recent months, they first acquired Sakura animation, and then the business and staff growth that suddenly soared after the collapse of mantiantang, as well as the resource integration of the whole Far East region. Phoenix has been investing, and the capital chain is likely to have problems.

It's hard for them to support another big expense. In the next few months, they have to carry out market promotion in Suhua area, which also needs a lot of money. Lin Mingzhe hopes Meng Huo can stop for a while.

"..." Meng Huo was speechless. He did not pay attention to the finance when he went to expand. For a moment, he went fast without paying attention. Although the extreme East region is only a region, the expansion here really brought phoenix company to the limit. He asked, "when will the financial situation get better?"

"Our investment in the Far East can be recovered as soon as one year, but if only the financial pressure is alleviated..." Lin Mingzhe looked at the statement and replied after a long time: "about three months, now we are running in the resources of the Far East, and we will see results in a few months, then the financial pressure will be much less."

"If Mr. He Xi wants to make animated films, it's better to continue after three months."Three months... According to this time, Meng Huo can only do GALGAME. Phoenix company has enough experience in making GALGAME. It can provide script and human design in three months.

"Yes, I'll prepare a game first... then
