Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 490: Crowdfunding to make games

Monday, April 18.

The matter of Jin Yiwei has been handed over to Xiao Tang, and I don't know what kind of people she will find.

There are many departments in Tengda now. Even if each department is to install a management compensation system, it needs more than a dozen people, and it is impossible to get together in a hurry.

Pei Qian's request to Tang Yishu was to find all the people before next Saturday.

On Saturday, when no one in the company secretly held a small meeting to arrange the work, I still felt a little fascinated when I thought about it.

Pei Qian still slept until he woke up naturally today. After eating, he came to the company and walked around, expressing a little bit.

However, before I could open the Elli Island website to follow the drama, I heard a knock on the door outside.

"Um?"

Pei Qian couldn't help frowning, what's the hurry

Just two minutes after he entered the office, someone knocked on the door outside, obviously it had been a long wait.

"Please come in."

Outside the door, Hu Xianbin pushed open the door and entered.

"What's the matter, did you encounter problems with the development of "Struggle"?" Pei Qian couldn't help but have some small expectations in his heart.

Hu Xianbin shook his head: "No, the development of "Struggle" has been going smoothly so far. It's a matter of gog!"

Pei Qian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

On the one hand, it is because of the smooth development of "Struggle", and on the other hand, Hu Xianbin is still worrying about gog, which is very inconsistent with the spirit of Tenda.

Pei Qian coughed twice: "Don't be in a hurry to talk about gog."

"There's something wrong with your approach to work."

"People's energy is limited, and they can only do the same thing at the same time. How can they manage the research and development of "Struggle" and the operation of gog?"

"Hurry up and let go of gog's operational work."

After all, Hu Xianbin is also the research and development staff of the second half of gog, responsible for the launch of the mobile game version and the end game version, and has a very good understanding of the gog project.

Pei Qian asked Hu Xianbin to be in charge of the research and development of the "Struggle" project just to make him stop worrying about gog. As a result, it was too much for him to want to do both jobs together.

Hu Xianbin was stunned for a moment: "Well, Mr. Pei, I will hand over the work to Min Jingchao when I go back."

"However... For the gog project, I do have something very important to report!"

Pei Qian nodded: "Well, you say."

Hu Xianbin seemed very urgent: "Mr. Pei, I hope to make an exception and urgently recruit some more people for Tenda's game department!"

Pei Qian couldn't help frowning.

Make an exception

Recruit some more people

Little brother, this is a very dangerous thought!

Now all departments and positions of Tenda are recruited uniformly, only twice a year, in May and November.

This time is mainly to avoid the peak season of recruitment.

Due to the cumbersome recruitment steps and sufficient time for new employees to go through the resignation procedures and handover work, the actual entry time is still one month later.

But Pei Qian looked at the date, it was already April 18th today, what's going on with gog, can't even wait for more than a month

There must be something wrong here!

Pei Qian attached great importance to it in his heart, but he still asked calmly on the surface, "Why are you in such a hurry to recruit people?"

Hu Xianbin said: "Mr. Pei, because the ioi side is going to engage in an 'arms race' with us, and now the gog project is in urgent need of manpower expansion! Otherwise, our initial advantages will be lost!"

Pei Qian couldn't help but feel joy in his heart.

Although I didn't understand what the "arms race" meant, one thing was clear: Lin Wan started to act!

During this time, the ioi national service should have been almost prepared, and a series of publicity strategies should have been formulated, ready to start grabbing the gog market.

I don't know where Hu Xianbin got the news from.

However, considering that Tenda Games and Shangyang Games are brother departments, it is not surprising to get news from any source.

In the mentality of watching the excitement and not taking it too seriously, Pei Qian said with a smile: "Really, tell me in detail."

Hu Xianbin hurriedly said: "The strategy of ioi is to update hard and win by quantity. According to the current plan, two new heroes will be updated in a month, which is too fast!"

"Now the number of heroes in gog is slightly less than that of ioi, but it is still within an acceptable range."

"Once ioi updates new heroes at such a speed of light, and we still update a new hero slowly for two months, we will soon be left behind, and gog's first-mover advantage will be gone. !"

Pei Qian nodded frequently.

It's alright, the finger company and Lin Wan are very reliable!

Sure enough, the script still developed as I imagined, and I really didn't know what to do.

Pei Qian's expression became more and more calm: "So, do you want to recruit more people and compare the speed with each other?"

Hu Xianbin nodded: "Yes, we have no reason to lose to them in terms of speed! Whoever updates faster can better maintain player stickiness and game popularity. The advantage in this regard is too great!"

"The current situation is that the brave who meets the narrow road wins, and gog must not give in!"

Pei Qian was silent for a moment: "I don't agree with you."

"It's definitely not possible to recruit people in advance. Even if it's recruiting next month, I don't recommend that the game department recruit too many new people."

Hu Xianbin was stunned: "Why, why?"

Pei Qian leaned back on the boss's chair and said earnestly, "There are not too many people."

"With more people, the speed will be faster, and more ideas will come up, which seems to be a good thing."

"However, many people may be treasures or prisons."

"Don't run into problems, just always think of this stupid way of crowd tactics, which will lower your upper limit of thinking and obliterate your inspiration."

"Anyway, don't recruit more people."

Hu Xianbin was a little anxious: "But President Pei..."

Pei Qian emphasized it again: "Don't recruit more people."

Hu Xianbin was speechless, he didn't dare to let President Pei repeat it a third time, he could only sigh, and silently exited the office.

Pei Qian showed a satisfied smile.

Lin Wan, I can only help you here, you must complete the task as soon as possible!

Hu Xianbin went back upstairs dejectedly and sat down at his workstation.

When Min Jingchao saw that Hu Xianbin was back, he immediately came over.

"How is it, has President Pei agreed?"

Hu Xianbin shook his head: "No, President Pei refused."

Min Jingchao was stunned: "Rejected? Can't you? President Pei has always been generous with the company's various expenses. Why is it not allowed to recruit a few new designers? This is a bit unscientific."

Hu Xianbin sighed: "Hey, I don't know what President Pei thinks, but his attitude is really firm, saying that not only can't make an exception to recruit in advance, but we can't recruit too many people in one month's recruitment. "

Min Jingchao frowned, bewildered: "How could President Pei say such a thing without a reason, did he say something else?"

"Generally speaking, there are some hidden clues in President Pei's words."

Hu Xianbin tried hard to recall: "I think about..."

"He seems to have said that many people may be treasures or prisons."

"However, this sentence doesn't seem to have any deep meaning..."

"Would you like to ask Sister Li and Brother Bao?"

Min Jingchao shook his head: "I think, don't always throw analysis questions to Brother Bao. At Tengda, President Pei's intention is to have necessary skills, and we need to exercise more."

Hu Xianbin thought for a while: "That's right. However, what President Pei said this time doesn't seem to have any deep meaning? I still have no clue."

Min Jingchao frowned and fell into thought.

After a long time, his brows stretched slightly.

"From the original point of view, this sentence means that every designer has a different idea. It is true that there are many people who can provide different perspectives, ideas and concepts, but so many perspectives, ideas and concepts are all mixed in Together, it becomes a prison."

"Other people's perspectives, ideas, and ideas will in turn limit your thinking, and in the same way, your ideas will limit other people's thinking."

"If everyone does their own thing, they will drag each other down and reduce efficiency."

"So, making new heroes for gog is a tiring job, and it's also a technical job. It needs to continue to produce ideas. The key is not that there are too many people and few people, but whether the main designer can accurately control the direction of the game."

"No matter how many designers are recruited, in the end, only one person can decide, unify the style, and make overall planning for the balance of the game, otherwise the game will become a stitch monster."

Hu Xianbin was no stranger to this way of interpretation, and immediately realized: "Well, it makes sense!"

"But that still doesn't solve the problem."

"Everyone's ability to generate ideas is limited. There are too few people, and there is simply not enough inspiration. You can do the overall planning, but providing inspiration and designing different new heroes still requires manpower."

Min Jingchao fell into deep thought again, this time thinking for a longer time.

After a long time, he slowly said: "It seems, not necessarily."

"It's true that everyone has limited inspiration and limited ideas. However, it's not just designers who can provide inspiration and design new heroes."

"Mr. Pei expressed a dialectical thinking. He did not deny the power of many people. His original words were 'it may be a treasure, or it may be a cage'. We only analyzed the side of the 'cage', but did not delve into it.' Treasure's side."

"No matter how many designers are recruited, how can they compare to the wisdom of the majority of players?"

"The designer is just a small treasure, and the player is the big treasure."

"President Pei doesn't let us recruit designers because this move cannot fundamentally solve the problem and is inefficient."

"That is to say... we can let players also participate in gog's hero design!"

"What if ioi's hero development is fast? If we can really fully mobilize the enthusiasm of players, then inspiration and ideas will be inexhaustible and inexhaustible!"

Hu Xianbin suddenly said, "That makes sense!"

"So Pei always means this?"

"Indeed, fully mobilize the enthusiasm of players, let players provide ideas and content, and then our designers only need to be responsible for screening, modification, balance and other work, and this problem is perfectly solved!"

Min Jingchao stood up suddenly: "I'll do the activity plan now!"

After sending Hu Xianbin away, Pei Qian chased the drama for a while.

Looking at the time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.

"I haven't seen the old horse for a long time, let's go to realize the dream of venture capital."

It was only then that Pei Qian remembered that he had always wanted to go to Dream Realization Venture Capital to ask Lao Ma about the projects he was optimistic about, but he was so busy that he forgot.

The weather is good today, you can go out for a walk, and take a look at the recent situation of Lao Ma and Yuanmeng Venture Capital.

Pei Qian had agreed with Lao Ma before, and let him find a suitable project and notify him as soon as possible.

However, after so long, there was no movement from the old horse.

Pei Qian couldn't help but wonder, what is Ma Yang doing

He wasn't worried about Ma Yang's sneaky money, because since the last time he invested in Zhitou Company, Pei Qian had already asked Yuanmeng Venture Capital that all investments must be approved by him.

Now that no one has asked for instructions, it means that Dream Realization Ventures did not spend a penny.

So the question is, since Ma Yang didn't spend any money, what is he doing
