Chapter 85 As long as the taste is right, it is a success
At eight o'clock in the evening, in a spacious conference room.
Lu Ming was sitting at a long table, looking at the three nervous young men.
They looked a little uneasy, but their eyes were filled with excitement and anticipation that was hard to conceal.
"Please sit down, everyone is tired after a day."
Lu Ming said softly, motioning for them to sit down.
Gong Min and Sun Qianli sat down carefully and looked around the meeting room.
It is truly luxurious and truly polite!
Even the boss of Jingyue came in person!
Could it be that one of the three of them has an unusual identity?
Several people looked at each other, but after thinking for a long time, they still couldn't figure out why Jingyue was looking for them!
Earlier in the hotel, they had taken a look at the ranking of the game "Out of Control Accompaniment: Platycodon Prelude" developed by several people on the voting list.
212 people!
Although it has increased a lot compared to before,
However, based on this ranking, it seems that he doesn’t deserve such treatment!
The three of them sat on the chairs, their postures different but equally stiff.
Wang Hao crossed his arms across his chest, looking like an excellent student waiting for the teacher to get angry.
Gong Min straightened his back, as if he was about to raise his hand to answer a question.
As for Sun Qianli, he didn't think so much at all. He touched the pen on the table and thought silently in his heart,
"It would be nice if I could take this with me. Looking at the quality, it would be worth hundreds of dollars."
They really couldn't understand how a small team like theirs, who was just a runner-up, could sit opposite the boss of Jingyue. It was unscientific!
"The reason I called you here today is actually to talk about your games."
Lu Ming smiled and spoke, and his words made the three of them look up at the same time as if struck by lightning.
We? Talk about games?
"Your version is 'Out of Control Accompaniment: Platycodon Overture'."
Lu Ming changed the subject and looked more serious.
“I watched it and played it.”
The three of them looked displeased.
Wang Hao's Adam's apple moved, and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva, thinking:
It’s over, something went wrong with the game?
The two-dimensional world does not meet the competition requirements?
Is the music infringing?
Is there a professional legal team behind the door?
Is this a case of courtesy before force?
Gong Min tried hard to maintain a calm expression, but his feet began to tremble slightly under the table.
Sun Qianli was more direct, his mouth twitched and he whispered,
"Mr. Lu, our game actually... doesn't have much of a plot, and the controls aren't very user-friendly... It's not worth your while, is it?"
Zhou Yizhou sat aside, saying nothing.
He was also a little confused at the moment.
He knew Lu Ming's style. He never did useless work, and it was even more impossible for him to suddenly take an interest in an independent game ranked over 200, and even call him to accompany him.
It's not like I'm interested in this game.
Instead... it seemed like he was observing three people.
observe?
A bold guess popped up in Zhou Yizhou's mind.
He looked at the three people, then at Lu Ming, his eyes somewhat complicated.
This scene looks so familiar!
It seemed like Mr. Lu had the same look when he first came to the Zhanhuoliantian Company late at night!
…
"I'm actually quite curious."
Lu Ming looked at the three of them, his eyes were gentle, but his tone suddenly became serious.
"How did you come up with the idea of making such a game?"
"To be honest, after playing it, I feel that the game's positioning, tone, and even rhythm... are all a bit unconventional."
"But it has this indescribable sense of brokenness that makes it hard to leave."
"I really want to know how this kind of game came into being."
Lu Ming asked this question sincerely from the bottom of his heart.
As soon as he said this, the three of them looked at each other.
"This...isn't actually that complicated."
Wang Hao swallowed hard and spoke.
He is the planner, of course he knows how this game was born!
When they make games, they don’t look at what they want to do, but at what resources they have at the time!
If the company they rejected outsourcing to was making a card game,
Then the game they will participate in will be cards,
If they have the resources for a tower defense game, then they will submit a tower defense game.
However, Wang Hao definitely couldn't say that to Lu Ming!
Even brothers cannot communicate directly with each other, let alone the boss you just met.
"Actually, we originally wanted to make an interactive narrative game with a music theme..."
"Later, I discovered that the budget was insufficient, the team was unstable, and time was even less."
Wang Hao continued,
"So we cut the main storyline, cut part of the battle system, and only kept the music and a few key nodes."
"Later, dubbing became too expensive, and we couldn't afford the music copyright, so we simply made the missing content into game settings and packaged it as part of the plot."
“…”
"I originally just wanted to save money, but it ended up becoming my style."
Zhou Yizhou's brows furrowed more and more as he listened.
This... Mr. Lu, are you sure you are not listening to them reviewing the disaster scene?
There are a lot of young people like this in the war-torn country.
Zhou Yizhou turned his head to look at Lu Ming, only to find that the latter was listening with great interest, nodding from time to time.
It’s over, it seems that Mr. Lu really intends to take them in!
Mr. Lu’s look was exactly the same as when he first introduced “Bullet Time”!
Lu Ming didn't say anything. After listening to the three people's story, he suddenly laughed.
"Do you know that I made a game before called 'Kryptonian Cultivation'?"
The three of them were stunned.
Heard it! Played it!
At that time, the client also said that he wanted to reskin the game!
"The original goal of the game was to be a serious immortal cultivation RPG. What was the result?"
"What I got was not bad reviews, but a lot of real money."
Lu Ming spread his hands, his smile a little helpless.
"At the end of the day, some things can be wrong or rotten, but as long as the taste is right, they are successful."
The conference room fell into a brief silence.
The three of them were a little confused.
What's rotten? What's the smell? Why can't I understand?
Wang Hao looked at Gong Min, his mouth slightly open but not knowing what to say.
And Gong Min couldn't help but say,
"So... Mr. Lu... do you mean you think our game is good?"
Lu Ming neither nodded nor shook his head.
Wang Hao was a little panicked.
This silly girl, how can she speak so directly?
Even if they want to use insider channels, they have to say it in a subtle way!
"I admire you guys."
"so."
Lu Ming leaned back and glanced at the three people.
"I'm going to buy you out."
"Don't be afraid, I'm not here to suppress you."
"I want you to work at Jingyue. Of course, you won't be ordinary employees."
"It's a new project team under Jingyue."
"It's still called the Dark Camera Studio. The war between you and Lao Zhou is on the same level."
"I don't care what you want to do, as long as you can continue to stick to your creative ideas!"
"But the prerequisite is that Lao Zhou will guide you for half a month to turn your unconventional ways into professional ones."
After saying that, Lu Ming turned his gaze and looked at Zhou Yizhou who had not spoken yet.
Zhou Yizhou: “…”
I just came to have a meal!
You came all this way just for these three people?
How did these clear-sighted people attract your attention, Mr. Lu?
At least I had a team of dozens of people at the time?
The more I look at these three people, the more they look like A Dou.
Zhou Yizhou had a lot of opinions in his mind, but he didn't say them out loud.
He looked at the three people with disbelief in their eyes and nodded.
"Well, what do you think?"
