No one has trouble with money.
Karens believes that as long as he proves his worth and uses his agency rights to create enough profits for Yunmeng Group in the past two years, the other party will definitely give in, even if it is out of consideration of costs and risks. Cancel the plan to self-publish overseas version.
Karens was very ambitious.
So far, none of the games operated by Bulldog have lasted more than two years.
Due to the inability to guarantee the stability of performance, his road to ringing the Nasdaq bell has been elusive.
No matter how hard he tried, he could not convince the people on the stock exchange that a company engaged in overseas game agency business could stand the test of time.
However, in Clash of Clans, he saw hope.
The casual and relaxed gameplay and rich scalability are perfectly combined. Before this, he has never seen a strategy mobile game that can make the PVP gameplay so competitive and fun.
This game definitely has a lifespan of more than two years.
As long as the development team continues to update new gameplay and content, it is conservatively estimated that it can maintain a lifespan of five or six years!
Not only in the Americas, but also in Europe, he is bound to win the agency!
Just when Karens was feeling complacent, Mr. Hao, who made a rare visit to the company, was discussing painting techniques with the chief artist of the Yunmeng Game Art Department.
"I think this little bird can be drawn more powerfully." Looking at the cute design in his hand, Hao Yun shook his head and returned the manuscript to Jiang Lecheng, "What you drew is so cute. It still lacks a little bit of...aggression."
Pressing his index finger between his eyebrows, Jiang Lecheng said with a headache on his face.
"Didn't you say that we are taking the Q version style and casual and relaxed route?"
"That's what I said, but our game is called Angry Birds, not cute birds or cute birds." Hao Yun said with a face that didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, if he could Just paint.
But even he couldn't recognize the painting he painted. After showing it to Jiang Lecheng, his first reaction was not whether the painting was good or not, but "This thing is actually a bird?"
To be honest, it's quite hurtful to be complained about like this in person.
Just when Hao Yun was thinking about how to describe his thoughts in a more vivid way, An Ming, who was passing by, suddenly saw the crooked "original manuscript" of the painting on the table and couldn't help but stop and ask curiously. One sentence.
"What is this painting?"
Jiang Lecheng joked.
"The bird painted by Mr. Hao."
Hao Yun: "..."
An Ming reached out and scratched the back of his head, with a confused expression on his face.
"You can barely see the beak of the bird, but... aren't the proportions of the wings a little wrong? And why is the overall composition drawn like a ball?"
Hao Yun quickly explained with gestures with his hands.
“Because the core gameplay of the game is to simulate a slingshot, and the bird is used as the projectile of the slingshot, designing it in a spherical shape will make the game look more reasonable... "
These reasons are actually nonsense.
To be honest, Hao Yun himself, who has worked as a game designer for many years, cannot analyze why this game is so popular.
If I have to say it, the pleasing painting style may be one of them, and there may be no other popular works at the time. The minimalist gameplay and interesting level design are also bonus points, but they should not be regarded as the decisive factor.
Since there are so few elements that can be analyzed, all Hao Yun can do is dig into the details, striving to make this work exactly the same as in memory to prevent accidents.
Of course, it is impossible for An Ming, who is standing in front of good luck at this moment, to understand this painstaking effort.
He scratched his head and said with a hint of interest on his face.
"I probably understand what you mean... Although I don't know if I understand it correctly, can I try it?"
"Of course! It's better to say please," Hao Yun thrust a piece of draft paper into his hand without saying a word and said expectantly, "Just follow the idea I mentioned and draw a line drawing. That’s it!”
"I don't think anyone can understand your ambiguous statement..." Jiang Lexeng, who was sitting on the chair with his arms folded, couldn't help but complain, but after being glared at by Hao Yun, he quickly shut his mouth again. On.
An Ming smiled sheepishly at Jiang Lexeng, picked up the pen and thought for a moment, and then started drawing on the draft paper on the table.
It is completely different from Jiang Lecheng's painting style. Instead of painting the bird into a pure spherical shape, a sharp ellipse is used as the outline of the overall composition.
Coupled with the inverted eyebrows and sharp beak, the cute painting style has a sense of wit and majesty.
Seeing the sketch written by An Ming, Hao Yun's eyes lit up instantly and he almost burst into tears.
Damn it!
He is worthy of being a boss with a potential value of 7!
After going back and forth for so long, someone finally restored the picture in his mind!
"What are you drawing?" Jiang Lecheng, who didn't see the expression on Hao Yun's face and was looking at the draft paper, gloated and said in a joking tone, "Why do I feel that my needs are getting more and more different from Mr. Hao's?" Far?"
Hearing this, An Ming's face looked slightly embarrassed. However, just when he was about to say something, Mr. Hao, who was standing next to the desk, spoke excitedly.
"Draw the other pigs too!"
Jiang Lecheng was stunned, with question marks written all over his face.
An Ming was also stunned. Although his face was not full of question marks, the word "confused" was still there.
"Also, how many other pigs?"
"Hmm! Wait a minute, I will express my needs to you, and you will draw according to this style!"
With that said, Hao Yun glanced at Jiang Lecheng, signaling her to quickly take out the demand list.
Although his face was full of question marks, Jiang Lecheng finally understood the boss's meaning and called up the "Angry Birds" vertical painting design request form from his laptop.
After carefully reading the demand list, An Ming took a pen and thought for a while, then continued to draw on the draft paper.
With the same few strokes, the image of a simple and honest character with a hint of evil appeared on the paper in an instant.
Although it is obvious at a glance that the painting is a villain, it does not appear exaggerated due to over-expression.
This time, not only Hao Yun, the designer, but also Jiang Lexeng, who was sitting aside, had a surprised expression on his face.
Although she was not optimistic about the model designed by the newcomer at first, her thoughts changed instantly when she saw the three little pigs.
It seems that I have indeed misunderstood the points mentioned in the demand table.
Referring to this "standard answer", she finally understood why this guy's plan was favored by Mr. Hao.
To sum it up in one sentence, these cute and energetic character designs are simply made for this game!
"How did you come up with the idea?" She couldn't help but ask, "I mean, how did you understand the demand list like this?"
An Ming was stunned for a moment, thinking that she thought her painting was not good, so she said unconfidently.
"Ah? Did I understand it wrong? Then I'll change it again—"
"No need to change it!" Before he could finish his words, Hao Yun interrupted him with excitement, "This is the effect I want! It's simply great!"
If this guy hadn't been so miserable, he couldn't help but suspect that he was a time traveler like himself.
It only took one try to restore the picture in my mind. It was amazing!
