Chapter 410 What Is the Monkey King?
"Mr. Lin, welcome to visit."
Feng Yi walked towards Lin Mo and extended his hand early.
"No need to make such a big scene, I just come to visit and visit." Lin Mo smiled.
"Mr. Lin, you are a guest. Keyou is not a big company, but we can't neglect our guests."
As the founder of Keyou and the product director, Feng Yi is also a smart person.
Visiting?
How is it possible!
If it was the naughty cat who just made CSGO that year, it would be a little possible.
Talk about cooperation and exchange with each other.
But the current naughty cat is different from the past.
Not accepting external investment, relying on a series of excellent products, and foresight like foresight, every step is on the right path.
The size and energy can no longer be simply regarded as a game company.
I don't know how many people beg for the Buddha, who took the initiative to ask to visit Keyou.
How could it be just a simple visit?
But Feng Yi still can't think of the reason.
Naughty Cat has a support plan.
They said they would not interfere with the company's production, and they did.
But it does not mean that they will not make any requests.
Even if these requirements are like God's gift to the company receiving the investment.
What about Keyou's money?
It's like doing charity, like a father giving alms.
It's really just investing money and waiting for dividends.
I was a little cautious at first, but when I really saw the first 35 million investment in the account.
I was still confused.
If it weren't for the age issue, Feng Yi would have doubted whether he should have the surname Lin.
People are greedy.
With the investment, Feng Yi's heart was eager to move again.
If Naughty Cat can make additional investments, then not only can the game be completed.
It can also add many functions and contents that were reluctant to do but had no money at the beginning of the project.
Lin Mo was observing Keyou Interactive Entertainment in front of him at this time.
It can be seen that Feng Yi really attaches great importance to this meeting today.
Not only is it clean, Lin Mo even doubts whether Keyou has renovated the company inside and outside.
The entire company received the notice and knew who was coming today.
Now, Naughty Cat has been established for eight years.
Many people who came into contact with Naughty Cat games in high school have now graduated or are about to graduate.
Many people are curious about Lin Mo, who they have only seen in the information.
Want to see, but dare not see openly.
Curious, but dare not show it.
The front desk lady is like this, and it is even more so when she comes to the office area.
The Chinese game industry used to be a mess and had a bad reputation. Learning game design was considered to be self-destructive.
As Naughty Cat became famous and became an industry benchmark, Lin Mo became the idol of many young designers.
Many young designers with some immature faces still couldn't help but secretly observed and even communicated quietly.
"Is this Mr. Lin? He's even more handsome than in the video and photos."
"I know Mr. Lin is young, but I didn't expect him to be so young. I envy him for his hair volume. Why am I bald?"
"Oh, people are always comparing themselves to each other. We are the same age, look at him, then look at me."
"Then I'm older than Mr. Lin, I'm not going to live."
No matter how low the voice is, it can't be concealed.
Feng Yi's face changed slightly, and he cursed in his heart.
These guys, I told you not to talk about it in private! !
Even if they leave? Even if they walk away?
Originally, the next itinerary was to visit the work area, go to the reception room to rest, and listen to the words of the sponsor.
Then try to persuade him to make additional investment.
As a result, he saw a scene that made his hair stand on end.
Lin Mo was attracted by the whispers.
And... walked over.
Feng Yi even had the idea of killing someone.
This old man is not the kind of sponsor who knows nothing and can be fooled by PPT.
He is the best designer in the world, no doubt about it!
Most of the trends in the market are led by Naughty Cat.
We are not afraid of outsiders watching the excitement, but we are afraid of insiders looking at the doorway.
If it fails.
How can we convince additional investment! !
Lin Mo walked to the workstation.
He had no other intention, just curiosity.
As for the talk behind his back, he was used to it.
Not to mention him, even the company's business department came to inspect, and it was like this.
"Big bosses are different. I wonder if I have the opportunity to design and be my own boss."
"Yes, it's always good to have a dream."
"Really, I think so too?? !!"
The employee with glasses and a few pimples on his face was startled and turned around quickly.
The person he was talking about was behind him, and next to him was the ferocious boss.
"Uh, uh, Mr. Lin, hello, I'm your fan."
Looking at the side, the few people who had just talked were like ostriches at this time, with their heads lower than anyone else.
The office area is neither big nor small. It was far away just now, but it only takes less than a sentence to walk over.
Before I could react, the person arrived.
Several colleagues could only pray silently.
You wish for the best.
"Don't worry about me, just be busy."
"Okay, okay."
Lin Mo looked at the computer screen quietly.
On the surface, he was very kind, but inside, he felt like laughing.
He recalled the painful experience when he was a student and the teacher stood by and told him to learn what he should learn, but in fact, he could not learn at all.
This was even more true for the young man in front of him who had obviously just entered the industry.
What made Feng Yi almost cover his face was.
This was obviously the action of an amateur in interaction.
Modify, restore, look left, look right.
Lin Mo did not expose it, and watched for a full two minutes until the young man was sweating profusely, and then asked: "Are you adjusting the execution action at the end of the BOSS battle?"
Finally, there is a problem!
Hearing this, Feng Yi hurriedly came up to explain: "Yes. This is the execution action at the end of Lingxuzi BOSS, and there are some small problems with the special effects."
Lin Mo nodded, and asked again: "Is this execution action a bit simple? It doesn't match the status of the BOSS."
Feng Yi broke out in a cold sweat again.
"Is Lingxuzi a wolf demon? We originally wanted to turn the protagonist into a giant ape and hold him on the ground with his teeth broken. But. Just like, just like"
"Just like King Kong fighting the skeleton lizard."
"Yes! But this plan was rejected by us."
"Oh? Why, this is a good idea."
Feng Yi smiled bitterly and said: "Our technical artists can't solve such technical problems. The teeth will be penetrated when the hands are bent, and the model will also be misaligned. Because there is no way to make the protagonist stand in a fixed position, the teeth will be penetrated."
Lin Mo nodded and shook his head helplessly.
This is the most heartbreaking thing in the game industry.
That is, it can't be done.
I have already thought of cool CG animations, wonderful execution actions, and a passionate BGM to match the character's actions and plot, pulling the emotions to the peak.
But the actual process is.
Scold the stupid sponsor for not investing money, and there is no money for CG.
Scold the technical artists for not being able to make this execution action.
Scold the outsourced music for not having the desired effect.
Why are the motion capture and facial capture so stiff, and the finished product so awkward?
Or maybe there is no facial capture or motion capture at all.
Finally.
This section was cut.
It was cut.
This is why many games have been approved, with huge production costs, and even have playable test versions.
Before going online, the project has to be cut.
Games cannot be made as you want.
A game company needs extremely strong resource reserves, talent reserves, technical reserves, and production experience to make many rubbish games that players disdain.
Lin Mo nodded and said nothing.
Feng Yi felt much sadder.
The sponsor seemed not very satisfied.
Yes, compared with the technical capabilities of Naughty Cat, the difference is not in the same channel.
He showed his weakness today.
Lin Mo walked around this workstation and walked to the opposite side.
The other person who was whispering just now had a bitter face and felt his heart beating faster.
He cursed himself for not being able to control his mouth!
Lin Mo looked at it carefully for a while and pointed out a small problem.
"The background of the story is the end of the Dharma era of Journey to the West, right?"
Feng Yi nodded quickly and said, "Yes."
Lin Mo pointed to a dog-headed monster weapon and said, "This is the Mo Dao, which was popular in the prosperous Tang Dynasty from the Tiaolu years to the tenth year of Kaiyuan, mainly to deal with the situation of cavalry fighting such as the Turks. In the late Tang Dynasty, due to the decline of national strength and social unrest, the Mo Dao, a weapon that requires high craftsmanship and is relatively expensive, gradually withdrew from the stage of history. By the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and the Southern and Northern Dynasties, basically no national army would equip it, and it had been completely lost by the Song Dynasty."
Then he pointed to the armor.
"Let's talk about this armor. It has a green armor leaf pattern, with red brocade trim, red leather as a belt, and a human face on the chest. This is a decorative armor of the Song Dynasty, and the two are somewhat conflicting in the timeline."
Feng Yi was already sweating profusely.
There was only one thought in his mind.
Damn it.
But it wasn't over yet.
The two of them kept walking around for half an hour.
Many workstations were visited.
"I suggest you go to the field to collect materials. You can't restore the charm of the Buddha statue by simply modeling."
"Here you can"
"This."
This made many people in the work area feel a sense of fear as if they were about to face the teacher's exam.
Half an hour later, they returned to the meeting room.
After saying so much, Lin Mo was really thirsty.
After drinking a glass of water, he saw Feng Yi, who looked ashen.
"Mr. Feng? What's wrong? Are you worried about something?"
"Ah? No, no, I just made Mr. Lin laugh." Feng Yi smiled bitterly.
"I won't interfere with your creation. There are a few points you can refer to. One is the issue of execution actions. You can do it freely in this regard. Naughty Cat will provide technical support. Second."
Feng Yi no longer had any hope for additional investment.
Then he adjusted his mentality.
That's right.
Greedy people are greedy.
Too big will choke to death.
Doesn't this also provide technical support? How many game companies don't have this opportunity.
People should be content with what they know. As long as this idea doesn't fail, will they still worry about the investment of their works later?
Yes, yes.
If I were Lin Mo, I would not have made additional investments after discovering so many problems with Keyou.
"Well, I've said too much. It's really a burden for you Keyou. Let's put it this way. Naughty Cat will make an additional investment of 120 million yuan, or in installments."
"I understand, Mr. Lin. It's a pity that we didn't get the previous investment from Naughty Cat this time. Hmm?"
Feng Yi was stunned for a moment.
"Mr. Lin, you said additional investment?"
"What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
How could there be a problem!
If it were someone else, Feng Yi would think that they were stupid and rich.
But this is Lin Mo.
If it were any other investor, Feng Yi thought that the other party might have ulterior motives.
But this is Lin Mo.
Finally, he couldn't help but asked, "Mr. Lin, I am very grateful and touched. Keyou really needs this money. But I still want to ask, why?"
"Why?" Lin Mo thought for two seconds, "Do you know the slogan I used when I founded Naughty Cat because I reported Dawei for cheating and my account was blocked by Xingyou Interactive Entertainment?"
Feng Yi nodded like pounding garlic.
How could he not know this?
This has become an enduring hot topic on the Internet.
Every player who plays the new game of Naughty Cat will say "Thank you Dawei" and then put on a funny expression.
Well, Dawei is pedaling the sewing machine.
He is still outputting.
"Of course I know! Rectify the game industry."
Lin Mo nodded and said, "Yes. So, why is it strange that I do this? Chinese games cannot only have Naughty Cat, and Keyou is now the leader. You don't think that my slogan is just empty talk?"
Feng Yi was stunned and didn't know what to say.
He knew that Lin Mo had called himself an idealist many times and had said many times that he would rectify the game industry.
This is also the point that black fans often attack - in the name of ideals and slogans, they are actually monopolizing.
As the founder of Keyou, a serious industry insider.
He doesn't think there is any problem.
Who doesn't make games to make money? Ideals or passions have to give way.
Not to mention a slogan shouted at the beginning of a business.
But now it seems.
This is not just a slogan.
After seeing Lin Mo off, he returned to the reception room and thought alone.
After a long time, he sighed
"It seems that Mr. Lin is not being polite when he said that he can help us with any difficulties."
"If Mr. Lin can't stand up in the international market with such help, then I'd better go home and raise pigs."
"Damn it, let the whole world know what the Monkey King is in two years!" (End of this chapter)
