Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Lin Wan was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

Pei Qian explained: "In Tenda, each employee consumes 3.2 packs of snacks per day. Coffee and beverages are not included. Basically, they do not stop from work to get off work. This is the premise that many employees decide to lose weight and have control. under."

　　 "But there is obviously a big gap between Chixing Studio and this value, and we still have to make persistent efforts."

　　 "The amount of snacks eaten can tell how much the employees are engaged in their work. The amount of snacks eaten indicates that the employees are working hard, thinking hard, and consume a lot of energy, so they need to eat a lot of snacks as a supplement."

　　 "So, I have to work hard!"

　　 Lin Wan's expression was slightly surprised.

　　 Eat less snacks?

　　 Is this a problem that needs improvement?

　　Or to say...There is actually deeper information behind this that can be digged?

　　 Lin Wan frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, suddenly a flash of inspiration: "I understand, President Pei!"

　　 "You mean these employees have just joined the company and don't eat snacks, which actually reflects that their attitude at work is still relatively rigid and not relaxed enough?"

　　 "And game creation is an industry that needs inspiration. Only by fully relaxing can we make good designs; only in a relaxed atmosphere, can the communication between colleagues be more harmonious and smooth?"

　　 “So eating less snacks reflects that the team’s running-in is not enough, and the atmosphere is not active enough. This will actually affect the daily work status and the quality of the finished game!”

　　 "Seeing Weizhishu, only if everyone can steadily and safely eat a lot of snacks, can the whole team get on the right track faster?"

　　 "Then I will send you a notice in a while, encouraging everyone to eat more snacks in the future! According to the amount of 2 packets per person per day!"

　　 Pei Qian was shocked.

　　 He just said casually, hoping that the employees of Chi Xing Studio could eat more snacks and work less, but he did not expect Lin Wan to make up so many things in less than a second...

　　 Sure enough, is this an old Tenda employee?

　　 Pei Qian couldn't help but want to hold his forehead with his hands, thinking about what is going on, how did he cultivate so many strange employees...

　　 But there is no way to explain it now. Pei Qian could only acquiesce to Lin Wan's statement and immediately changed the subject: "Let's talk about VR glasses."

　　 Lin nodded later: "Go to the meeting room, my brother happens to be there."

　　 As soon as he entered the meeting room, Pei Qian saw Lin Chang looking down and playing with his mobile phone.

　　 Lin Chang looked up and saw Pei Qian smile immediately: "Oh, President Pei, you're here? Has the problem of Tengda's capital turnover been resolved?"

　　 Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly.

　　 Isn't this just knowingly asking?

　　 Don’t think I didn’t know that you were the one behind!

　　 Although Pei Qian didn't think so much at first, but the more he pondered over the past two days, the more things went wrong.

　　 It stands to reason that the sloth apartment building should be very popular. Why is it that no one wants it?

　　 It is a bit far-fetched to say that all companies don't want to "take advantage of the fire", because it is impossible for all companies with intention to respect Tenda to give up such a big piece of fat.

　　 So, it's probably someone behind them ventilating them!

　　 As for who this person is, it's actually easy to guess. It's nothing more than Li Shi or Lin Chang.

　　 And Li Shi doesn't have such great energy. His influence is limited to Jingzhou, and he can't speak much to some large domestic real estate companies.

　　 Such an exclusion, the answer is obvious.

　　In this incident that hindered the sale of the property, Lin Chang definitely exerted tremendous energy!

　　 Pei Qian chuckled, "It's still a lot of Xie Lin's'help'."

Although Pei Qian has tried hard to speak in a yin and yang tone, Lin Chang still didn't notice it. Instead, he waved his hand embarrassedly: "Hey, President Pei is too polite, who are we with whom? you are welcome!"

　　 "Actually, I'm just a matter of making a few phone calls."

"President Pei has contributed so much to Chi Xing Studio, even if he would rather sell the property to pay the money, how can this kind of friendship be measured by money! This little help can't be said to help, President Pei must not take it to heart! "

　　 Pei Qian: "..."

　　 Why can't I hear good words? Am I thanking you?

　　 If the system hadn’t controlled my mouth, I would have spit out fragrance to you, okay!

　　 Pei Qian was very speechless, and casually found a chair to sit down at the conference table and said, "It's still business. I heard that the research and development funds for VR glasses are not enough?"

　　 Lin nodded later: "Well, yes."

　　 "The original R&D funds we had set before were 20 million for both games and VR glasses. The game is absolutely no problem, it must be enough, but VR glasses... just encountered a little problem."

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　"According to our original design, the money is about the same, but after the specific design and communication with the factory, a few changes Version plan, Lao Song wants to adopt some new technologies, so that the cost will go up..."

　　Lao Song is the product manager responsible for this VR glasses project at Shenhua Group.

　　 The investment in hardware research and development like this can be more or less, and the fluctuations are actually very large.

　　 Let alone a device, even the development of a small handle, Microsoft has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in funds.

　　 But this is too much attention to details, such as the ergonomic design in the handle, durability, feel and unique appearance, these are to be repeatedly modified, repeatedly adjusted and tested.

　　 But many domestic manufacturers will actually make handles, and the R&D expenses for such handles are much lower.

　　 Of course, good handles and poor handles will have a gap between the feel and the actual experience, but the gap will not be that big.

　　In other words, cheap handles "are not unusable."

　　 After all, you get what you pay for, and you get what you pay for ten cents. On this kind of somatosensory device, the price paid for every increase in feel is very huge.

　　 In terms of VR equipment, the very sensational original Oculus Rift was made with just 2.5 million dollars in crowdfunding, which also included part of the production and stocking money.

Many domestic companies also use crowdfunding for the development of VR glasses. For example, a domestic VR glasses with 8K as a gimmick raised 3 million dollars to develop the VR glasses with the highest resolution in the world. Although the base station and the handle are both It is a ready-made technology, but it is enough to show that the development of VR glasses can't actually cost so much money.

　　 The current VR glasses don’t actually have much advanced technical content. The difference from traditional displays is only in the display mode.

The two lenses of the VR glasses are based on different visual fields and create deep cognition of different pictures in the local space, forming a virtual reality field of view in the user’s brain, creating a display effect that is different from traditional screens .

　　In other words, the information is still the information, it is nothing more than a different form of showing these pictures to the player.

　　 And Chixing Studio invested 20 million, which can be converted into 3 million dollars. In fact, it is already a relatively large investment at present. The average company dare not pay this money for VR for fear of losing money.

　　 What's more, VR glasses have something in common with mobile phones. For example, they both need chips and basic Aizhuo operating systems. These are undoubtedly the strengths of Shenhua Group, which can save a lot of money in this regard.

Originally the money was enough, but Lao Song, as a product manager, has a more geek character. He has some new ideas in the design process, and the development of the handle is indeed more difficult than originally expected, so several versions have been released. After designing the plan, it was discovered that the funds were a little stretched, and only then did he report to Lin Wan for instructions.

　　 Lao Song even came up with a proposal for somatosensory gloves, but he quickly rejected it.

　　There are several problems when making gloves, which are difficult to solve with the current technical conditions, such as:

　　 There is a big difference in the size of the player's hand. Making gloves means to make a lot of sizes, and even if you make a lot of sizes, it may not completely fit the player's hand. And for things like gloves, bigger and smaller things will be uncomfortable. If it is a handle, it can be made into one size, and all players can use it comfortably.

　　Moreover, in order to complete the corresponding functions, the handle must be equipped with batteries, sensors, joysticks and buttons. The gloves plus these things will definitely be too bloated and heavy, and it will be very inconvenient to operate.

　　 So the glove solution is not feasible at the current level of technology. Even if it is reluctantly made, the user experience will not be good. It is still honestly returning to the handle solution.

　　 But even the controller solution, because it is different from the existing VR controller, the money needed to develop it is more than expected.

　　 As soon as he heard this, Pei Qian came to his senses, and his eyes lighted up instantly: "I said at the time, the money is definitely not enough!"

　　 "You still said that 15 million can be made at the time. I am worried that the money is not enough to increase to 20 million. Now it seems that 20 million is not enough!"

　　 "It must be added up!"

　　 Hearing this, Lin Chang hurriedly said: "No problem! How much do you add, Mr. Pei, and how much we Shenhua also add!"

　　 Pei Qian glanced at him, a little speechless.

　　 What are you putting on this mess?

　　 Pei Qian didn't want to take Lin Chang to play, because Pei Qian was rushing to lose money. If Lin Chang also paid the same money, wouldn't he also lose money?

　　 This kind of thing, it is better to let President Pei take it alone.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){}　　 But when he thinks of Lin Chang's good deeds the other day, Pei Qian no longer sympathizes with him.

　　 Losing that is also deserved!

　　 Pei Qian chuckled, "That's OK, Tenda will invest another 10 million yuan."

　　Lin Chang was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Do you need so much?"

　　 Pei Qian coughed slightly, and said, "If it’s not convenient for President Lin, it’s all here for Tenda and it’s fine..."

　　 Lin Chang hurriedly waved his hand: "No problem! What can be wrong with this?"

　　 "Shenhua will also pursue another 10 million investment, it's all right!"

　　 "Forty million is almost equivalent to nearly six million dollars. This is already twice the budget of the foreign VR glasses that caused a sensation..."

　　 "There is always no problem now, right?"

　　 Even though he was supporting his sister, Lin Chang still felt a little instinctively.

　　 Ten million is not a big sum for the Shenhua Group. What he is worried about is that after the investment of this money, if the project fails, it will cause a huge blow to Lin Wan.

　　 But since President Pei made the decision to increase the money, let's do it!

　　 Lin nodded later: "This is definitely enough! But, Mr. Pei, is there really no problem with Tengda's funds? Or you should still keep the money, let my brother come out all the 20 million..."

　　 Pei Qian's face turned black for a moment: "Tengda's funds are fine, very good! You don't have to worry about this!"

　　 "Instead of worrying about this, it is better to focus on the development of equipment and game design, and strive to make the product come out soon!"

　　 Anyway, the day this product came out, it was not far from blood loss.

　　 Lin nodded later: "Okay, I'll talk to Lao Song when I turn around. Then, his previous designs can be implemented, and I will definitely be very happy!"

　　 "By the way, President Pei, finally come here, do you want to look at the current art concept map?"

　　 Pei Qian thought for a while: "Also."

　　 After all, there is still a long time before the game DEMO is released. Looking at the art concept map, you can also roughly know the general style of the game, and make up the game screen.

　　 Lin Wan brought a laptop from the side, found a few conceptual pictures of the game, and showed them to Pei Qian and Lin Chang.

　　 Pei Qian glanced around and couldn't help being a little surprised.

　　 This Q version of the concept picture is...perfect!

The background of the 　　 concept map is a small island on the sea with lush vegetation and picturesque scenery. And the main part of the picture is a variety of anthropomorphic small animals, such as kittens, puppies, lions, bears, rabbits, etc., some are fishing with a fishing rod in their hands, some are cutting trees with an axe, and Some are farming with hoes.

　　 There is also a weird robot with a little steam style. It is assisting these small animals to manage the farmland, and has built a steampunk-style farmland watering system. Of course, it is also a Q version.

　　 For the artist ~www.ltnovel.com~ Compared with the realistic style, the Q version is relatively easy to use, because as long as it is not particularly talented, the Q version will not be too ugly.

However, it is difficult for the Q version to be proficient, because the key to the Q version is to extract the outstanding features of the original image for re-creation. How to make the Q version characters cute and recognizable while retaining the core essence is a very good thing. Difficult things.

　　 And these pictures are obviously masterpieces.

　　 Pei Qian is very happy.

　　The masterpiece is expensive!

　　 It must be a good thing to spend more money.

　　 "This picture is the master's handwriting, right?" Pei Qian asked casually.

　　 Lin Wan smiled and said, "What are you talking about with Mr. Ruan about money? Isn't there a long-term cooperation price."

　　 Pei Qian was taken aback for a moment, and a question mark floated above his head.

　　?

　　 "Is this painting by Ruan Guangjian?"

　　 Pei Qian felt a little at a loss, because he remembered that Ruan Guangjian seemed to paint mainly in a realistic style.

　　 Lin nodded later: "Yes, I can only say that the big guy is the big guy, and the Q prints are so good!"

　　 Pei Qian was silent.

　　 He suddenly remembered that Ruan Guangjian's realistic style of painting is so much, it doesn't mean that he can't paint Q version.

　　 When Pei Qian was looking for an artist online, it was because he saw that all of Ruan Guangjian’s representative works were all Q-versions, and suspected that he would not know how to paint realistically, so he came to him...

　　 Not long after it was released, Ruan Guangjian came to work?

　　 The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly, and he said with emotion: "You guys are well connected..."
