Chapter 338 Mobile game development is blocked

Blair looked at Tory Black, who was flushing in his pretty face and said happily. He looked at the boss who had been smiling with a question expression. He just saw the boss shaking his head, spreading his hands, and looking like he was not me again, his eyes became a little different when he looked at Tory Black again.

"Not bad, I can think of these suggestions. It's really good. Tori. If you have any good suggestions after playing games in the future, you can tell me directly. I won't be stingy with the reward." Andy encouraged Tori, who had long eyelashes with a smile on his face.

"Yes, boss, I will work hard." The little assistant said excitedly with a smile.

"Haha, Miss Black is really surprising. At first I thought it was the boss who showed you the planning documents. I didn't expect that you could think of these points just by playing games. Why not come to our company to be a test officer? I think it will be helpful for the upgraded version of the game..."

"No...no, I can't do it. I just play around with it. I feel too stupid to pass the level, so I think of cheating methods..." The little assistant shook his hand quickly and explained a little embarrassedly.

"hehe..."

Andy looked at Black teasing the little assistant speechlessly, and felt an unexpected surprise for Tory. Whether it was because of laziness or trying to take shortcuts, being able to come up with these suggestions means that she is a person who likes to use her brain and has a good imagination. If she can really come up with some construction ideas in the future, she will be competent for the position of experience officer, but that will happen in the future.

The car soon arrived outside the building of Mockingbird Games. After Andy got off the car, he took the group straight to the company's conference room. The employees along the way looked at him with admiration and said hello to him. Andy also nodded and signaled.

"Everyone has a good mental outlook." Andy said to Blair beside him with a smile.

"Of course, the latest third-party organization evaluation report has been released, and the valuation of our company has doubled. Everyone is very excited. You are even more impressed by the boss." Blair took the opportunity to flatter him.

Andy couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, "It's inseparable from your efforts..."

He walked into the well-staffed conference room, and everyone stood up to greet Andy.

Andy nodded with a smile and walked to the top of the conference table to stand still, reached out to press down, and said lightly: "Everyone can sit."

"I saw some new faces. We mocked Bird Company as a new company and a company with rapid development. We are very eager for talent. I think you can sit here now. Your abilities have at least been recognized by the human resources department. In your future work, I hope you will not disappoint me. Welcome everyone to join and witness the growth of a great company."

As soon as Andy finished speaking, applause rang out in the conference room. Both old employees and new employees did not feel any awkward about the boss’s great company. You should know that at this time last year, the predecessor of this company was facing bankruptcy. After the boss bought it, through eight months of hard work, the company’s asset valuation had reached US$600 million, which has been called a miracle by many media.

If there is no accident in the middle and the subsequent products are still excellent, it is only a matter of time before greatness is great, and its growth rate is really amazing.

"The reason for this meeting today is that I now have two more game ideas, and I want to make them as soon as possible." As soon as Andy finished speaking, he felt the atmosphere in the conference room condensed. Except for Toby's group who is also working on "Under the Legend", the others all looked at the boss intently.

The success of Andy's previous three game ideas has made the company extremely convinced of the boss's talent. Looking at the two development groups "Plant" and "Minecraft" have very little share ratio, the members of these two development groups have gained a lot. After all, the two games are sold very well.

Who doesn’t want to make more money? The boss’s new game creativity naturally makes everyone excited.

As for developing two new games at the same time, no one is thinking about the money-burning concern. His boss is the youngest billionaire and he is not short of money.

Besides, under the continuous advertising of the two games, "The Plant" and "Minecraft", sales are getting better and better, and almost become money printing machines. Even the game "Happy Farm" brings more than one million yuan in revenue to the company every month. With the increase of Facebook users, its revenue will only increase.

To be honest, Mockingbird Games is still a little short distance from Silicon Valley, but after deliberately revealing the company's revenue this year, it immediately became a very eye-catching company. The media rushed to report, well, there is also some suspicion of hype.

However, at least the reputation of Mockingbird Games has begun to become well-known.

"I'll talk about the first game plan first. A while ago, Blair told me that the company's 3D game department had improved the game engine. At that time, I was thinking about designing a 3D game. After all, the home console game market in North America is very large, and we must not ignore this piece of cake. This is why the 3D game plan for "Devil Souls" is here."

Then Andy signaled someone to turn off the curtains and lights, and began to show some of the drawings in his hand to everyone with a projector. The main line of the story was also roughly explained, and the specific content was to discuss and study with the people from the 3D game development department.

The people in the conference room, especially those in the 3D game development department, were very excited when they looked at the sketches. Since they were acquired, split and reorganized, they are also worried about their future while improving the game engine. After all, the new company is a company that makes computer games, and the games they have developed before were all console games. The uncertainty about the future still makes the 3D game department a little panic.

Now, looking at the pictures are not very beautiful, but they are such cute sketches, and the little worry in their hearts disappears.

The supervisors and engineers and programmers of the 3D game department listened to the boss's game introduction, from excitement to looking at each other. They were all veterans. They knew very well that if they followed the boss's game settings, players would definitely be tortured to death. Everyone looked at the boss's handsome face with a smile. Under the projector, it seemed that the shadow behind him turned into a grim demon, holding the players in their hands and playing around with them casually...

"Okay, this is the general content of the console game. Next is the second game I'll prepare. Before that, I'll explain it to everyone." Andy raised his hand and signaled the staff to turn on the lights. He turned off the projector casually, put his arms around the conference table, looked around the conference room for a week, and then continued.

"Maybe everyone is a little curious about the newly joined colleagues recently, and the newly joined people are inevitably a little nervous. After all, this is a game company, why is it recruiting some mobile phone programmers?

Now let me tell you why, in San Francisco, everyone should know about the Ai Crazy Mobile Phone released by Jobs some time ago. You should also see my optimistic view of the future of smartphones in the newspaper. Therefore, my second game plan is a mobile game designed based on the touch screen of Apple Ai Crazy Mobile Phone and Apple's iOS mobile operating system - "Fruit Swordsman".

Andy's words made the people in the conference room frown slightly. After all, the previous mobile games were really not seen by these people who made computer games and console games. The most important thing was profitability, and they really didn't look good.

Especially the group of mobile game programmers is not large, and they have basically switched to online game programmers, otherwise they would not have allowed "Snake" to occupy the mobile game market that has been around for many years.

In fact, there are still many games on the mobile game market, but due to resolution reasons, such as racing, etc., Super Mary, there are still many ported games. However, the mobile game market is basically seized by handheld consoles, and PSP handheld consoles are the current trend.

The boss now says he wants to make mobile games. Don’t you know the popularity of PSP handheld consoles? Well, even if Apple’s Ai Crazy phone is good, it will have a place in the market at that time, but how to promote and sell the mobile games produced? On which platform is sold? This is all something to consider.

Another person must say that of course it is sold on Apple’s app store!

Don't be funny, Apple's app store will not be available until July 2008.

Alas, this is something that Andy complains about. Not only Nokia and Microsoft look down on iPhones, but even Apple itself look down on iPhones. The reason why Apple develops iPhones is only because of the success of IPOD.

To be honest, Apple's idea is really simple, just to consolidate the territory of the IPOD Walkman, and to split a chicken leg in front of the two big brothers, Microsoft and Nokia. Before Apple launched the App Store in July 2008, there was no software or game on the iPhone that could run.

Andy couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he looked at the conference room in a strange atmosphere. He knew that his mobile game plan was resisted by everyone, especially some old employees who had been walking down from the brink of bankruptcy, and even more nervous. He didn't make good computer games, but made a fucked mobile game!

"Boss, are you thinking about this? After all, we have never made mobile games..."

Seeing that Balabara talked to him, executive Blair, clearly seeing that everyone around him nodded in agreement.

Resistance. Andy encountered resistance for the first time, not because his subordinates wanted to rebel, but because their vision was limited. Of course, he was more responsible for the boss's wealth. Once he failed, the funds invested were basically wasteful. As a subordinate, he would naturally do his best to prevent the boss from making wrong decisions.
