Views:

After seeing off the father and daughter, Chen Mo returned to the experience store.

What happened to Nini still touched him, mainly because it made him suddenly realize a problem that he had been ignoring before.

What is the game

For a designer, games have multiple attributes.

For different groups of people, the game in everyone's eyes is also different.

It may be a work of art, a cultural product that incorporates many design concepts and artistic concepts.

It can be great entertainment and the best way to de-stress after work.

It may be a career, e-sports, and constantly surpassing ourselves.

It may be a "spiritual opium", a "scourge", a "playing with things and losing one's mind", and it is something that many people avoid.

Everyone knows that games can move people, give people happiness, and give people negative emotions.

Of course, the game may also empty your wallet and make the game developer a lot of money.

But Chen Mo also realized that in the process of non-stop rushing to make the game, he seemed to have neglected some of the most original and original things, that is, the fun brought by the game itself.

In the process from entering the industry to the present, in the eyes of outsiders, Chen Mo has gone smoothly and made a lot of money in all games, but in fact, no one can see the hardships involved.

Since entering the industry, Chen Mo has been developing new games almost non-stop, basically guaranteeing the development of 3 to 4 new games every year, and there must be a masterpiece with an investment of over 100 million.

In addition, in order to be able to accumulate funds faster, so that the speed of his own game development can surpass the speed of progress of the game design concepts of designers in this world, Chen Mo also made some krypton gold games.

Work basically every day.

Before game development, do market research, analyze player preferences, and plan game design plans; during the development process, coordinate the progress of everyone, and fully control all aspects of game content, including gameplay, art, music, etc.; before the game goes online, use various methods Publicity and momentum; after the game is launched, collect feedback from players to modify it, and then quickly enter the development of the next game.

It can be said that Chen Mo can replace anyone in the entire team, but no one can replace Chen Mo.

Leaving aside all other factors, at least in terms of diligence, Chen Mo should not lose to anyone in the game circle in this world.

Of course, there are factors of Chen Mo's own personality, as well as certain external environmental factors.

Although Chen Mo has many classic game ideas, in the game circle, ideas are not worth much.

Compared with the power of channels and capital, creativity is sometimes very fragile.

Therefore, Chen Mo had to be careful before walking, because once many opportunities were missed, it would be difficult to seize them.

But after seeing Nini playing "Minecraft", Chen Mo suddenly realized something.

Leiting Huyu is now an influential game company, and he himself is no longer the unknown newcomer designer he used to be.

He can slow down a little, and he no longer needs to count every step so accurately as before, and every step cannot be missed.

Every player should be treated as a living person, not cold data.

It's time to think about things other than making money.

On the second floor of the experience store, Chen Mo's own studio.

Lin Xiao handed over a written material to Chen Mo: "Manager, the renovation of the new store has basically been completed, and it was done according to your previous plan. This is a detailed report."

Chen Mo reached out to take it: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

Lin Xiao asked: "Then, store manager, when are we going to move there? If the date is confirmed, I will notify everyone."

Chen Mo thought for a while: "Next week, I can notify everyone now."

Lin Xiao nodded: "Okay."

After Lin Xiao left, Chen Mo began to read the report materials.

The location of the new experience store was considered as early as November last year, that is, before the development of "Minecraft". Lin Xiao also traveled almost all over the entire imperial capital during this period, looking for many places.

In the end, Chen Mo finalized a four-story office building.

The location is in the northeast of the imperial capital, between the third and fourth rings, just at the subway entrance. The floor of this office building is relatively low, mainly because there are historical sites along the line, and it is not allowed to build tall buildings, so this building only has four floors.

The entire building was originally under construction and was completed in March this year. Chen Mo was quite satisfied with the structure and location of the building, so he decided to buy it.

The price is 46,000 per square meter, a total of 6,400 square meters on 4 floors, a total of 290 million. The price is a bit more expensive overall, but it also has many advantages. First, the transportation is very convenient; second, it is relatively close to Chen Mo’s current experience store; Immediately decided to buy it.

After the completion of the project in March, I found a special decoration company to design and finely decorate it. I slightly changed the structure of the building, and arranged various decorations inside and outside the building.

Adding in various other messy expenses, as well as the cost of purchasing various equipment in the experience store, Chen Mo spent a total of more than 300 million yuan. Up to now, the renovation of the new experience store has been completed.

The structure of the entire experience store was planned by Chen Mo himself.

Walk five minutes from the subway exit to the main entrance of the experience store. The lobby on the first floor is the front desk and rest area. There are many sofas for players to rest and chat, and there are special coffee machines and drinks.

The lobby entrance is facing the elevator, and there are two elevators that can pass through the first to fourth floors.

The passages on both sides are connected to the main usable area. The first floor is the PC game experience area. The layout is similar to that of an Internet cafe. There are two areas on the left and right of the hall. The total usable area is about 1,200 square meters, with a total of 200 computers.

The second floor is the holographic projection viewing area and the mobile game experience area. The second, third, and fourth floors do not need a lobby, but there is a girl at the front desk who is responsible for receiving players.

The holographic projection viewing area has a large holographic projection device and two small holographic projection devices, which can display in-game scenes and images through holographic projection.

However, in this world, such holographic projection equipment is not popular due to its high price and impracticality. Chen Mo bought it to consider preparing for future e-sports games.

In addition, there is a huge LED screen on the wall of the viewing area on the second floor, just like the screens in concerts and e-sports competitions, it is also for players to watch the battle.

In other areas, some are auditoriums and some are mobile game experience areas. In addition, there are mobile phones and tablets fixed with the seats next to each seat for players to experience.

The third floor is the vr game experience area, with a total of 80 vr game cabins. The experience price of vr games will be more expensive, and there is a corresponding time limit, but it is much cheaper than vr Internet cafes. 8)
