Chapter 159 It’s time to be reckless!
The office finally quieted down.
Lu Ming leaned back in his chair, tapping the table lightly with his fingers, looking at the slanting sunlight outside the window.
He is indeed a loyal minister!
You only need to give a little guidance and the other person will understand it thoroughly!
How can I live without Lao Zhou?
Fortunately, the project has finally been confirmed. The next step depends on how Lao Zhou implements it!
After thinking it over, Lu Ming immediately came out of his excitement, his expression calmed down, and his brows slightly frowned.
It’s settled. It’s settled.
But what about landing?
The project "Mistakenly Path to the Wilderness", from its setting to its gameplay, from its structure to its system, is not a mini-game idea at all.
This project is even bigger than "Time Journey"!
Lu Ming was not exaggerating, he knew that the stall he set up this time was really big.
Starting with three maps, dynamic error data, fusion and splicing, transmission structure...
We also need to maintain the normal play of 100 people,
And also to maintain the balance of the game,
Various art resources, copywriting, sound effects...
Each item cannot be put online simply by doing something stupid.
This is not just a pile of concepts, it's a waste of money.
And the development time is very tight, but as long as you pay more money, the speed can be increased!
Lu Ming took a look at the funds in the company's account.
More than 300 million!
Looking at the number, Lu Ming touched his chin.
"340 million."
It sounds like a lot.
But he knew what was going on.
When you really start taking it out, it's just that simple.
First of all, the company still has several old games in operation.
In the future, there will be servers, operation and maintenance, art outsourcing, platform docking... These are all regular costs and cannot be interrupted.
Add to that employee salaries, rent, utilities, technical servers, and procurement budget...
This 300 million yuan is really enough to be spent on a project...
Half at most.
I'm so full.
Moreover, this is still expected that during the development of these games, the company can continue to generate profits.
Fortunately, the low-budget "Not Only Sunny Days" is now making considerable profits.
There is no problem with these games providing blood transfusion to the company for the time being.
But now, Lu Ming’s "Misguided Adventures" is not an "ordinary project".
This is the first time that Jingyue has taken the initiative to attack and target Beishan’s positive project!
How much has been poured in there?
Seven hundred or eight hundred million is the minimum.
I was prepared to spend 300 million, which almost bankrupted me.
Lu Ming narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.
The sunlight shines on the glass, creating a reflection.
He suddenly thought of a sentence.
"Before the troops move, the food and fodder must go first."
And now, he was standing at the door of the granary, with the key in his hand.
If you want to make a profit, you have to make things really big.
I still have more than 30 million yuan on me. I regret not selling the house last time. This time I must go all out!
Without any hesitation,
Lu Ming immediately called the real estate agent who sold the house to him last time.
"Yes, it's me!"
"Well, I want to ask, how much can I sell my Binjiang apartment for now?"
"A conservative estimate of 50 million?"
"Then let's do it in one or two months. The sooner the better."
The agent's tone was a little excited.
"Mr. Lu, you bought this house not long ago. If you sell it later, it will still appreciate in value!"
"I can't wait any longer. Please help me hang it up as soon as possible. I will finish packing all my personal belongings in the next few days."
"Okay, Mr. Lu, I'll start preparing the procedures tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, the agent was still a little dazed.
Isn’t Mr. Lu a game developer?
Why are you selling the house now?
Is the gaming industry the same as the stock market?
He had no time to think, he was excited.
How much money can he make from this buying and selling?
…
After get off work, Lu Ming started packing up his things in the large flat.
In fact, he didn't have much stuff. In less than half an hour, Lu Ming was already sitting on the sofa.
Looking at the large balcony outside the window, he suddenly became absent-minded.
"The weather is so nice today! This feels like a farewell!"
"Sell it."
"You can't catch a wolf without risking your child."
Lu Ming began to calculate,
"I can get about 50 million from selling the house, plus the cash I have... I can invest 80 million myself."
"With the remaining two million, I can rent an apartment. It's enough!"
"Adding the cost of Whale Leap, it's almost enough!"
"The rest will be invested as we go along, and we will add more every month based on the nodes."
Anyway, making games is a continuous investment, not a one-day investment.
Take your time, it's okay!
An individual investment of 80 million, even if doubled, would still be 160 million!
We must be reckless this time!
Lu Ming decisively scheduled the next settlement to mid-July.
From March to July, it’s almost five months, we can’t delay any longer!
The setting is complete, without any regrets.
Lu Ming packed up his things, stood up and stretched his shoulders, then turned off the lights and left.
No looking back.
After a few months, he will have enough money to buy a new villa!
Then who would still live in a large flat?
This is also the reason why Lu Ming did not choose mortgage.
A real man never looks back!
A few days later.
Lu Ming handed the house over to the agent without hesitation.
All the procedures, processes and tax points are handled by the intermediary.
According to the other party, this house is easy to sell.
It should be sold quickly. After all, there is still a lot of room for appreciation and it is still very popular in the market.
Haha, no matter how high the appreciation potential is, can it be as high as the system?
That night, Lu Ming moved to the apartment next door.
Although it lacks the luxury of a large flat, it looks refreshing and quiet.
The monthly rent is not cheap, and it also has a large balcony.
Although it was only a few months, Lu Ming didn't intend to let himself down.
It's not like I'm penniless.
…
At the same time, the "Mistaken Path" project also began to operate in full swing.
As soon as the project announcement was released, all employees saw the concise yet weighty email.
Next, the project master file is put online on the server.
Keywords popped up from the internal documents one by one:
[The Collapse of Heavenly Dao], [The Fragments of Misguided Dao], [Reverse Cultivation to Achieve Dao], [A Hundred-Man Melee]...
For a moment, the entire company seemed to be thrown into a pressure cooker.
This game is so complicated and hard to understand...
But if you look down at the project budget again -
[Initial project budget: 300 million+]
No one said a word for a moment.
A 300 million yuan project? Planned by Mr. Lu himself? Headed by Mr. Zhou himself?
This is not a game, this is a resume grabbing!
Do it! We love challenging projects like this!
Projects worth hundreds of millions of dollars are the first time that everyone has come into contact with Jingyue!
Soon, the entire internal organization of Jingyue seemed to have entered combat mode.
Planning, art design, map group, animation, copywriting, plot, numbers...all groups were set up at the same time, and various group chats were everywhere.
Everyone knows:
This is no ordinary game, nor is it a small fight.
This is the largest, most complex and most expensive product in Jingyue's history.
Open fusion system, a full PVP experience for 100 players in one round...
None of them are lightweight.
Who wouldn't want to participate?
Think about the game revenue that Mr. Lu had promised before.
All the teams in the company meshed like gears, and with a clang, they started moving.
Zhou Yizhou, as the main person in charge, is also based in Shanghai and has taken root in the headquarters.
Anyway, the company has dormitories, so it's convenient for him to come over.
Although he is busy with work, he is energetic every day and communicates with various project teams about tasks.
The whole person is in a state of enjoying it very much!
A week later in the evening,
A round of process documents had just been sent out in the project department group, and Zhou Yizhou was about to turn off the computer and take a shower.
As soon as I took out my phone, a pop-up ad popped up on the interface.
[The community you are interested in, "Jiangpan Xingyun·Binjiang Section", has updated housing listings]
[Rare riverside sea view high-rise apartment, starting from 50 million, large river view flat, plenty of light, can be viewed at any time——]
【Original owner is selling urgently! Negotiable!】
Zhou Yizhou was about to close it, but subconsciously glanced at the picture.
As soon as he saw it, he froze.
That photo... was taken of a living room in the middle of the large flat.
Familiar floor-to-ceiling windows, familiar river views, familiar background walls...
Especially that sofa, he even lay there like Ge You himself!
Isn’t this Mr. Lu’s house?
Zhou Yizhou recognized him almost immediately.
“…Fuck.”
He stared at the photo, motionless.
His finger hovered over the mouse, but he didn't click it.
But in my mind, it was like a clip of memories was playing quickly:
Mr. Lu made tea for him in that room while explaining the logic of game production.
In the evening, they had supper on the balcony. Mr. Lu asked him about his lectures at the university.
But now, with just one word "urgent sale", everything disappeared?
Mr. Lu... sold the house?
