Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

  Can Chapter 1191 be completed?

  Legendary indie game producer recruits staff to develop massive game.

   This is also a rather gimmicky promotional content.

  Lorenzo's team focused on using this aspect of publicity, attracting some people who are curious about the account of "Nintendo's World Master of the Special Girl".

  Marcus also came here for an interview with the idea of ​​having a high salary and seeing the true face of this legendary producer.

   But he really never expected that this legendary producer didn't use his real face at all.

  A large spherical headgear.

  There is a weird smiling face on the headgear, with a hint of evil.

   But this is in line with the tone of this independent game producer.

   Only people with such weird personalities can make those interesting independent games.

   "Ahem, Mr. Marcus, right? He graduated from an Ivy League school majoring in digital intelligence, which is still a very popular major. He also designed a lot of software during school."

  Marcus immediately perked up when he heard Zhu Youxing's voice, and his chest couldn't help puffing up slightly.

   "Yes, I am quite good at program development. If your company has a large-scale game development plan in the future, I think I can do it."

   "Okay, then you passed and come to work tomorrow."

   "Uh ok...huh?"

  Marcus didn’t realize it until he responded. The interview was so fast.

  When Zhu Youxing saw this person's resume, he basically didn't hesitate much.

   Those who can still get certain grades in a good university are quite powerful.

   It is not clear to him whether complex game development can be competent.

   But developing a Fortnite is not a big problem.

   "There will be a special personnel specialist to connect with you in the follow-up, and you can come here to report tomorrow, and then prepare to develop a new game."

  Marcus said, "Well, I have a little problem."

"What?"

   "Our company seems to be preparing to develop a game called Fortnite, and I heard that the development of the game seems to be completed as soon as possible. Will you work overtime?"

   "Working overtime? No, no, no, our company has never had an overtime culture."

   "Then this game..."

   "Don't worry, the development of this game will be much simpler than you imagined, although it is a large game."

  Fortnite itself has no technical problems, basically it is the game development technology that has been made public at the moment.

  In addition, the current Unreal Engine is far more powerful than that of the previous life, and the database and development resources are also more abundant.

  It's really not a big problem for a hundred people to develop a game like Fortnite.

  Besides the completion of development, this game still needs to be maintained and updated in the later stage, and it is impossible to remain unchanged.

  Marcus was obviously very happy when he heard that he would not work overtime.

  Now the video game industry is actually doing quite well.

   Overtime work has gradually become the norm, which has seriously affected daily life. He is really worried that in order to develop Fortnite, he will have to work around the clock.

  But... Is it possible to do a good job and release the game in a short period of time?

   No, maybe it really is possible.

   Someone should be able to do it.

  Marcus immediately thought of someone.

   God of games.

  Zhu Youxing.

   As for the first independent game producer in front of me...

  He didn't know if it would work.

  However, his reputation is quite large. Anyway, the other party has promised not to work overtime, so it is understandable even if he can't finish it by then.

  Perhaps such a construction period requirement comes from shareholders, and it should be considered according to the real situation.

  Marcus left the room with a letter of approval for the interview, and dozens of people were also waiting for the interview after him.

  Although the development of Fortnite is not difficult, the construction period is still very tight. It should be done within half a year as much as possible, and then the game will be promoted.

  Even the interview process must be as fast as possible. It must be stuck at every time node, and no extra time should be wasted.

  The interview took only three days, and a total of more than 200 people were interviewed. Zhu Youxing gave full play to his strong energy in the past.

  A total of more than 170 interviewers, more than 120 people finally passed.

   Then we will officially enter the development of Fortnite.

  In fact, the original version of Fortnite didn’t focus on battle royale at the beginning.

   It’s just that because of the sudden appearance of an explosive battle royale game, Fortnite is a follower.

   When it came to this world, Zhu Youxing simply put all other gameplays of Fortnite aside and focused on battle royale.

  Other ways of playing can be added slowly in the future. After all, this is a long-term operation game.

  Marcus officially came to work the next day after the interview.

   It’s just that their big boss Zhu Youxing is still concentrating on the job interview, which makes him mistakenly think that the first few days may be relatively easy.

  But when he came to the workstation following the guidance of the personnel specialist, he found that computer equipment and a printed paper document had been prepared at his workstation.

  The paper document was specially written by Zhu Youxing, and the game development plan had already been listed.

  Marcus is a program developer, and what he is now responsible for is writing the game code, writing the function of the so-called hoeing the earth and dismantling items in the game into the Unreal Engine development environment.

  This is not a problem for Marcus, the goal of this type of program is very clear, he estimated that he should be able to complete this job in about a week.

   What surprised him was that besides his own, he saw similar development plans on other people's workstations.

   Moreover, these proposals seem to be for different types of work. It is impossible to focus on developing the function of dismantling items here. Others will do similar things. Isn't that duplication of work?

   In other words, the current boss has detailed requirements for everyone's work.

  Did the boss do it so personally?

  It was different from what he imagined.

  However, this also has the advantage, that is, you can directly execute the work according to the order, without extra consideration, and you don't need to use your brain to think about ideas.

  In this case, the game development efficiency is quite high.

   This made him suddenly think, is it really possible to finish a large-scale game in half a year?

  In the following two days, newcomers entered the company one after another. They had the same experience as Marcus. They placed their development tasks at their workstations and then completed them.

  There is also an industrial management system on their respective computers, and they can report directly after completing the work, and then there will be new jobs waiting for them.

  This time, there is no special need for employees to do autonomous things, as long as they complete the work step by step.

  Zhu Youxing did the overall planning alone, because time was tight after all.
