From the conversation just now, Cao Yang discovered several problems:

First, Li Lanyun is an idealist, and there is nothing wrong with this. Cao Yang is worried about whether Li Lanyun’s own ideas will be too paranoid, which will make it difficult to control them in the future.

Second, he also vaguely realized that the reason why Li Lanyun left Xishan Home was probably a problem with the production philosophy and some treatment reasons. When a person reaches his age, he always wants to show his ambitions.

Now that Swordsman Love II has achieved such a hot achievement, Li Lanyun must have wanted to achieve something.

If you come to Bomi and can't get what he wants, it's very likely that Li Lanyun will leave soon.

Third, Li Lanyun actually has a sense of pride in his bones. He is very persistent in Chinese traditional culture, and that is nothing wrong. In the future, Caoyang also wants to base himself on local culture and go to the whole world.

The same thing is true: if you don’t export culture, others will export you.

Therefore, it is inevitable to engage in cultural wars with game manufacturers in other countries, which is one of the reasons why Cao Yang is optimistic about Li Lanyun.

It was also his concern.

Caoyang was afraid that Li Lanyun would be trapped in it and could not extricate himself from it, so it was difficult to adapt.

For example, now, Cao Yang wants to play chess and card games first, so he probably told Li Lanyun directly that he would not agree with it.

Because in many people's impression, chess and card games are the lowest-level and least technical game categories.

Even many chess and card game players are ashamed to mention that they are chess and card games.

If you have too strong self-esteem, it can sometimes become an obstacle.

Fourth, Cao Yang can already judge that Li Lanyun cannot serve as the main planner of the new chess and card game project, so he can only go to the Honor of Kings project team.

The reason is very simple. The existing funds do not support Cao Yang in setting up a new project, and it is a large-scale Chinese game like Diablo as Li Lanyun said.

But, as Cao Yang said himself, even if there are many questions and concerns, he has to let Li Lanyun go.

The reason is also extremely simple -

The title of Swordsman Love II is the master planner.

As long as Li Lanyun is here, this is a flag.

Tell others that Bomi has ambitions and even the main planner of Swordsman 2 has taken the initiative to join us. What kind of talents can't be recruited?

I believe that in the near future, a large number of talents will come in.

So Cao Yang must.

This situation is equivalent to the same as Cao Cao had to accept Liu Bei back then. Liu Bei was a flag. Although it might not be able to be used, he could only realize his value under his own account.

Looking at the little secretary's confusion expression, Cao Yang opened his mouth and wanted to explain his concern to her.

But when the words came to your mouth, they felt boring.

"Forget it."

Cao Yang waved his hand, "I hope I'm more attentive."

...

After signing the contract, Cao Yang first placed Li Lanyun in the King of Glory project team, mainly presided over the development of the next eighteen version.

Li Lanyun's expression immediately became a little solemn, because he didn't want to do such shameless H-game.

Cao Yang could only comfort him. The company's funds are relatively tight now. As long as the Eighteenth Edition was released and the funds were recovered, he would be approved.

Only then did Li Lanyun reluctantly agree.

...

Li Lanyun's arrival has indeed played a lot of role.

First, he standardized the game production process and began to teach the planners to write scripts.

This is already considered a traditional skill of Xishanju.

Around 2000, Xishanju's planners could use them as half a programmer, and Xishanju's program only developed script languages ​​and then threw them to the planner for configuration work.

What is a scripting language?

The game development scripts used by Xishanju are probably similar to those of later Python. Many instruction sets are encapsulated and then planned to be called through scripts.

If you encounter something that is particularly difficult to deal with, you will throw it to the programmer if you can’t handle it.

This liberated the programmers and allowed them to focus more on solving difficult problems and optimizing programs, so the efficiency of game development has also increased a lot.

Therefore, Xishanju’s planning is the most miserable in the industry, far from the happiness of Netease and Penguin.

After Li Lanyun arrived, many employees asked Cao Yang for feedback.

"Master, this is too strange, right? We are planning, not programmers, why should we learn these scripting languages? It makes me think back to the fear of being dominated by mathematics in high school."

"Yes, yes, this is too difficult, right? I have to make up what functions I want to implement, and I don't have time to think about it."

Cao Yang could only say helplessly, "Hey, you can understand it. With the future development of technology, you can't learn it, but you still can't."

A group of small planners looked at him with resentful eyes.

Cao Yang quickly coughed twice, "Cough cough, I mean, now the company's development stage, when there are too many programmers in the future, you will naturally be liberated."

In addition to product changes, the biggest advantage of Li Lanyun's arrival is that it has indeed played a role as a weather vane.

As soon as this banner was inserted into Bomi, many outstanding talents in the industry immediately came to the door.

Sister Hua happily reports to her boss every day, saying that today is someone in the pig farm, and tomorrow is someone in the Xishan residence.

In less than a month, Cao Yang discovered that the planning, procedures and art that were originally worried about in the team had been filled.

Four or five art and procedures for Xishanju alone came.

There is still some surplus, enough to open a third team.

However, the funds were limited, Cao Yang temporarily suppressed him.

...

On the other hand, Kingsoft's Qiubojun and Qiu were very angry.

Swordsman Love Two made a big sale, but the team was poached.

They were so anxious that they quickly raised their wages, and the employees settled down.

The most important thing is that the master planner has left.

The main planner of a game is equivalent to the soul of the game. Li Lanyun has a high prestige in the team, and many people support him. When he leaves, many people immediately follow him.

Bomi, a damn company, is so willing to spend money.

It always makes Qiu feel a headache.

...

August is the busiest month in Caoyang. Not only does he have to manage the company's affairs, but he also has to follow the progress of Penguin and fly to Shenzhen for a meeting.

At the same time, because there was no particularly suitable producer of chess and card games, Cao Yang could only take the title of producer first, and mainly focused on the development of chess and card platforms.

In addition, the first version of Honor of Kings is also controlled by Cao Yang.

After several versions of the original paintings, Cao Yang was not very satisfied, so he had to go on stage and draw the original paintings on the Eighteenth for the characters in the game.

It was not until mid-September that the first version of Bomi Game's Honor of Kings 18 was completed.

The first day of in-game testing.

Everyone gathered in the conference room to watch Ai Xiaomi perform a game demonstration.

"Oh, um..."

The sounds of swallowing saliva in the conference room came one after another.

Although no one said a word, the scene was quite hot.
