Almighty Game Designer

Chapter 13: experience shop

Views:

The experience store is located in the northeast of the imperial capital, near the Fourth Ring Road, next to a mid-to-high-end residential area. The location is a little remote, but it also has the advantage that it is relatively quiet and not particularly noisy.

Chen Mo got out of the taxi and dragged his suitcase to the entrance of the experience store.

The experience store is a two-floor store with a small area. There is no sign outside and the door is locked. Chen Mo opened the door of the experience store and dragged his suitcase into the store.

The inside is quite spacious, each floor has about 200 square meters, and there are some sofas and other furniture that have been arranged.

"It's quite spacious."

Chen Mo was a little surprised. He thought it would be great if the experience store had an area of more than 100 square meters, but he didn't expect it to be so big.

200 square meters, according to the layout of general Internet cafes {non-VR Internet cafes}, 30~40 machines can be arranged, and the extra space can be used to place some sofas, green plants, beverage machines, etc.

Basically, the first floor is decorated like an Internet cafe for players to experience the game, and the second floor is the designer's studio and lounge.

The first floor is still largely empty at this time, because different designers have different layout plans. For some designers who focus on the development of vr games, the first floor is to place the vr game cabin, so the organizer of the competition needs to discuss with the designers to decide.

There is no problem with the decoration, and the cleaning is very clean. Chen Mo is quite satisfied.

On the second floor, it is the designer's own space.

The designer's studio has a standard version of the vr game cabin, high-end computers and mobile phones of various brands. In addition, there is a professional computer for game design, and the game editor has been installed.

Game designers need to play a lot of games to collect inspiration, so the studio has arranged three devices of vr, pc and mobile phone, which are also provided with the experience store.

There are desks, bookshelves, and a big bed in the lounge. The overall layout is simple and there are some basic appliances. There is no problem in living here for a long time. At least the living environment is much better than the house Chen Mo is renting now.

Many designers in this world are workaholics, so there must be a lounge next to the studio.

The layout of the entire experience store can be changed. If it is fine-tuned, the staff of the competition will help to complete it, but if there is a major change, you have to pay for it yourself, and the staff of the competition must agree.

Because Chen Mo only has the right to use the experience store, not ownership. After all, for such a large shop, in the imperial capital where every inch of land is expensive, the price can go up to eight figures if you buy it, and at least several million if you join it. No matter how rich the organizer is, it is impossible to give away the ownership of this shop directly.

Of course, just the right to use can save Chen Mo a lot of rent every month, so Chen Mo has nothing to be dissatisfied with.

After taking a general look at the situation, Chen Mo called the previous staff and asked him to come over and help with the arrangement.

About half an hour later, the staff arrived.

"Two-thirds of the hall is for computers, and one-third is for massage chairs for mobile game users. In addition, a bar is installed here, and the automatic beverage machine will do for the time being."

"Add a freezer here, and a snack rack."

"There is a bookshelf here. I plan to buy some game-related magazines and books."

"The sofa is a small cubicle for a reception room, a small conference table, and a projector."

"Help put some green plants on the balcony on the second floor."

"And here..."

Chen Mo said while the staff recorded.

The first floor is basically arranged in the form of an Internet cafe, but the computers are not so crowded and relatively loose. According to Chen Mo's plan, 18 computers and 10 massage chairs are temporarily placed on the first floor.

Massage chairs are mainly for mobile gamers, and each massage chair is equipped with a high-end mobile phone and tablet computer.

As for the second floor, it was completely arranged by Chen Mo according to his personal preferences, and Chen Mo didn't ask too much. He can tidy it up by himself in the future, and he can make whatever style of decoration he likes by himself.

After everything was arranged, the staff member nodded: "Okay, then I'll arrange someone to come over here, and it should be almost done this afternoon, and it can be finished by evening at the most."

Chen Mo said: "Okay, then I will leave it to you. I just go back to clean up tonight and come back tomorrow."

The staff nodded: "Don't worry, there are no major changes, and these are not difficult to fix, but moving things is a bit more troublesome, and they will definitely be done tomorrow morning."

"Also, I sent you the specific authorization agreement. You can take a look at the specific rules. If you have any questions, we will communicate in time."

Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, I will take a serious look."

Chen Mo was quite at ease with the staff of the competition, so he left the staff in the experience store and took the subway to the house he rented before.

On the subway, Chen Mo carefully read the authorization agreement of the experience store several times.

To put it simply, Chen Mo only has the right to use the experience store, not the ownership, and the ownership still belongs to the organizer of the competition. Of course, Chen Mo could also buy it, but basically he bought it at the market price, not much cheaper.

It is impossible for Chen Mo to spend such a large sum of money now.

The things in the store, such as computers, vr game cabins, etc., do not belong to Chen Mo, he just has the right to use them. These things are recorded in the agreement, and compensation will be required if they are lost.

Chen Mo does not need to pay rent or any usage fees, nor does he need to pay daily expenses such as water and electricity bills, which are all borne by the event organizer.

However, this does not mean that Chen Mo can live forever, he has targets.

The game developed by Chen Mo must guarantee a certain amount of income, otherwise the experience store will be taken back.

Moreover, the requirement for this benefit is not static, but is constantly increasing over time.

In fact, this experience store is equivalent to an investment by the event organizer. If the designer who won the first place can always maintain a relatively high level of game production, then the organizer will let him use the experience store all the time, which is a kind of wooing. If the designer's level drops, take back the experience store.

Chen Mo felt that this regulation was not bad, at least not directly collecting money, and Chen Mo was not worried at all that the income of the games he made would not meet the standard.

In this world, the ability to make money by making games, if Chen Mo thinks he is second, no one would dare to think he is number one.

Coming out of the subway station, Chen Mo returned to his residence.

After tossing around all afternoon, it was almost dark, Chen Mo ate something casually at a small restaurant nearby, and then went home to start packing.

He didn't have too many things, he just packed four big cardboard boxes, and he didn't have any big pieces of furniture to move. After booking a van online to move tomorrow, Chen Mo lay down and rested.
