After Huo Feng sent his game plan report to Yan Siyuan, Yan Siyuan spent more than two hours carefully studying Huo Feng's entire set of game settings and rules.
Huo Feng spent several days writing this plan report!
In the plan report, Huo Feng was so detailed that he set up all the game tasks, plot progression, and various attribute values!
It can be said that if Yan Siyuan nods, the report written by Huo Feng can be used directly to make the game.
So, Yan Siyuan spent more than two hours reading Huo Feng's plan report before he carefully and thoroughly read Huo Feng's entire game plan.
Yan Siyuan is not one who plays single-player games very often, so he is not sure whether users will spend money to buy and play such game content after it is produced?
However, when Yan Siyuan saw this content, he felt that if this game was published, he would be willing to spend money to buy it and play it.
Because the target of cultivation in the game is a poor student, and it is a challenge to train the poor student into a top student and send him to a prestigious school!
Yan Siyuan would be happy to accept this challenge.
So, two hours later, Yan Siyuan called Huo Feng and discussed the details of the game directly with Huo Feng.
On the phone, Yan Siyuan also asked Huo Feng a general question: "I have an idea. What do you think, can we change this game into an online game? Instead of making it a standalone game?"
"on-line?"
Here, Huo Feng, who was still lying next to Yu Sangzhi, held Yu Sangzhi's small hand and said, "As for online games, I think this setting is too simple. We need to add more modes and plots. Moreover, if it is online, we need to unify the servers, post-management, system maintenance, and regular updates. The follow-up will be very troublesome. Are you sure you want to make it an online game?"
"But you also have to know that although online games are troublesome, you can earn many times more than single-player games!"
Yan Siyuan on the other end of the phone said in a more serious tone, "If the game is a hit, the online profit method is completely different from the offline profit method. Besides, offline games are easy to crack, but online games are not. What do you think?"
What Yan Siyuan said makes a lot of sense.
Since ancient times, stand-alone games have been offline and have simple versions, so cracked versions will appear soon after their release.
Since online games are connected to servers, you must connect to their terminal servers to enter the game, which is a point that even technical workers cannot crack.
Therefore, if you can operate an online game, you can indeed earn ten or even a hundred times more than a stand-alone game!
However, the design of online games is very complex and involves too many aspects...
But it's not something that the two of them can do in the short term just because they want to.
Huo Feng had to remind Yan Siyuan: "You have to think carefully. If this is an online game, my current game settings are definitely not enough. We need to add more branches. Moreover, online games require us to invest money in the early stages. We need to buy servers. Do you know how expensive servers are? JD.com starts at five figures, and there is only one! The most important thing is, even if we raise enough money for the initial investment, what about the later stages? What if no one plays the game? We will lose everything!"
Yu Sangzhi, who was standing next to him, listened silently to the conversation between Huo Feng and Yan Siyuan.
She knew that the issue they were discussing was very serious, so she stopped scrolling through the comments on Douyin and looked down at Huo Feng seriously.
"I know the risk is huge and requires a lot of investment. But we still have a way," Yan Siyuan said.
Huo Feng asked: "What method?"
Yan Siyuan said, "If we can afford the initial investment from an operating company, we can hold the copyright in our hands and let the operating company help us operate the business. We can then share the profits proportionally, and we can take a small portion. If the initial investment is to be borne by the operating company, we may have to hand over the copyright to the operating company, and the profits will also be shared proportionally. The prerequisite is that we need to establish a studio so that we can discuss cooperation with the operating company."
Yan Siyuan has a long-term vision.
The game is still just a prototype, but he has already seen the later stages and plans to find an operating company to cooperate with, taking into account issues such as copyright and profit ratio.
Sometimes, Huo Feng really has to admit that outstanding people’s brains are really different from ordinary people’s.
Anyway, judging from this incident, Yan Siyuan thought of something that Huo Feng didn't...
I found the right partner, Yan Siyuan!
Huo Feng curled his lips and said, "Since you've considered so much, I'll listen to you! Let's find a company to cooperate with!"
Yan Siyuan said, "So, are we now determined to develop into online games?"
Huo Feng nodded: "Are you sure? Wasn't this what you suggested? And you asked me!"
Yan Siyuan said, "We are partners. You can propose any of my decisions to me. I can also propose yours. However, before implementing any decision, we must both agree, as we are the only ones responsible. This is just the beginning. Every project we collaborate on must reach this agreement. Any objections?"
Huo Feng shook his head: "I have absolutely no objection, I think you are right!"
Yan Siyuan: "That's good. So, I suggest doing it online. Do you agree?"
Huo Feng nodded: "I agree."
Yan Siyuan said, "Okay. Then we'll adjust the direction of our game to online. You need to fill in the game details as soon as possible. Then, I'll start looking for a studio. Due to initial funding issues, the studio will be temporarily located in Hangzhou. Office rent in Hangzhou shouldn't be very expensive. What do you think?"
Huo Feng thought deeply and asked, "So the headquarters will be located in Hangzhou from now on?"
Yan Siyuan added, "No, Beijing is better. If we make enough money, we'll open a studio in Beijing. There are more opportunities and companies in Beijing. If we can find a good partner in Beijing, long-term cooperation won't be a problem. Or Shanghai, Shanghai is also good. But we don't have anyone in Shanghai, so we have no one to look after us. So, if we want to make a name for ourselves, Beijing is the best place. What do you think?"
