Zhong Ming's words came to the point, which was also the most attractive point to Lin Xiaoguang.

Indeed, only by combining hardware and software can we bring players the most perfect gaming experience, but this sentence is easy to say but difficult to do.

At the same time, it is very rare to have the courage to make both hardware and software, and both can be well-made. At least in this world, there are really no manufacturers that can be fully well-made.

On the host platform, because some standards are relatively fixed and the process is standardized, and most basic functions have been finalized while the host manufacturers are constantly exploring, this is not very obvious.

Most hosts are similar. Even if the body shape is different, the content inside is the same. The only thing that can make a little differentiation may be the handle. However, the handle has been developed for so many years and has been studied by ergonomic experts for countless times. The functions and layout have basically been finalized. Without any particularly breakthrough technological innovation, it is unlikely to make any major changes.

The dual rocker, button, trigger key, vibration, sound and other functions on the handle are already very complete, and it is difficult to stuff new things into it.

However, in terms of the most popular simulators in this world, there is great potential for combining software and hardware.

Because so far, no particularly popular simulator has appeared, and the shapes of different simulators are very different, and there is no unified standard at all. The more this happens, the easier it is for new products to stand out. Game omni is a good example.

However, game omni manufacturers are just pure hardware manufacturers. Their design of game omni is only based on the current mainstream FPS games and cannot do some relatively differentiated things. So whether it is "The Road of Gun God" or "Resident Evil", there are some more or less problems when transplanting it to the game omni platform.

It's not about program problems, but about design problems. For example, the operation of using a knife to poke monsters in "Resident Evil" is simply impossible to achieve on game omni. In "The Road to Gun God", some operations have to be cut off in order to adapt to game omni.

What if game omni had already considered developing a game for it when designing it? The adaptability must be much higher than both games, and players will get a better gaming experience.

So, Lin Xiaoguang was really moved. He was indeed the vice president of Moya Technology, but the handheld machine business department he was in charge is a marginal department in the entire Moya Technology. He really didn't have much R&D funding and was not particularly valued. It was just that when the senior management was reading the financial report, he remembered to force the handheld machine business department to make a profit. Lin Xiaoguang was not comfortable.

If you really cooperate with Zhong Ming, it means that you will not have to worry about the game when making hardware. In terms of the speed and quality of Zhong Ming’s development game, it is absolutely fine if you don’t talk about world-class, but first-class in China; secondly, you shouldn’t be too short of money. "Resident Evil" really sold 2 million sets at a price of 299, and Weiguang Studio is no longer a small workshop. It is no problem to throw out tens of millions of dollars in R&D hardware equipment.

"Okay, Teacher Zhong, you told me, I'll consider it when I go back. Let's take a look at the trend of "Resident Evil". The sales volume is predicted to reach 2 million, so I will officially resign." Lin Xiaoguang said.

Zhong Ming nodded: "The faster the better, remember to dig up your team as much as possible."

"Aren't you afraid that Moya Technology will cause trouble for you?" Lin Xiaoguang smiled.

Zhong Ming said indifferently: "What are you doing when you ask me for trouble? They don't pay attention to the handheld machine business department. Besides, although these technicians are scarce, they don't mean they can't find them at all. They can't dig from Moya Technology. I'll dig from other companies. There are not many host R&D personnel in Huaxia, but there are many bracelet R&D personnel and computer R&D personnel. Who is dig is not dig?"

Lin Xiaoguang nodded: "That's right, then let's do it first, Teacher Zhong, I hope we can continue to work happily."

...

After seeing Lin Xiaoguang away, Zhong Ming returned to the studio.

Weiguang Studio is also full of talents. While researching and developing, Weiguang Studio and Tianji Studio are constantly expanding their enrollment. The empty seats were already full, and it was not enough.

The original construction area was more than 600 square meters, but after deducting the conference room, it may only be more than 500 square meters. According to the workspace area of ​​at least 8 to 10 square meters for each person, there are only more than 50 people installed at most. Now there are 63 people in Weiguang Studio alone.

So during the development of "Resident Evil", Zhong Ming asked Miao Zhu to arrange it, split the two studios slightly, and then rented out several other empty workstations on the 66th floor.

Since Tianji Studio and Weiguang Studio have no business dealings with each other, there is no need to squeeze together to work together. Zhong Ming is considering moving Tianji Studio to a new floor.

After looking at the current free location, there are many high-rise buildings, Zhong Ming pointed casually, rented the 77th floor, and arranged Tianji Studio.

Of course, the house number must still maintain the same style as Wei Guang Studio, and a 7777 house number was specially customized.

It looks like 6666 and 7777 are next to each other, but it is not. These two are on the 66th floor and the other is on the 77th floor, which is eleven layers apart.

However, there are elevators anyway. Huanyu Daguan is a high-end office building, and there are not many people. There are enough elevators. There is not much difference between one floor and ten floors. It is very convenient to find a door when Zhong Ming is fine.

During this period, Weiguang Studio mainly continues to develop some new version optimizations and DLC content of "Resident Evil", providing some hardcore players with a longer gaming experience. If Zhong Ming doesn't have to worry about these for the time being, Fu Xing'an and the others can handle them completely.

So Zhong Ming came to the 77th floor and took a look at the situation of Tianji Studio.

After launching "Era of Dawn", Tianji Studio has been in a state of making money while lying down. There are many subsequent new versions developed, but the work tasks are not that heavy, and everyone is in a state of health preservation.

"Boss." Jia Jia saw that Zhong Ming had arrived and came over to say hello.

Zhong Ming took a look at it casually, and everyone was basically still busy with the new version of "Age of Dawn".

Now the monthly flow of "Era of Dawn" has reached 20 million, and it is still in the rising period, just when the iron is hit while it is hot.

However, the launch of a new version cannot be too fast. One is that there is no need, and the other is that there are risks.

When players are still fresh in the game and are satisfied with a large amount of gvg content, keeping the game in the current state is the best choice. Players are tired of playing the current content and need new things before they need to update the version.

"The new version of "Age of Dawn" is not in a hurry to be released so quickly, just update it at the slowest speed. This game focuses on gvg, and players' intrigues are much more exciting than the game content, so they put more effort into this." Zhong Ming said.

Jia Jia was stunned for a moment: "You mean..."

"You can specially arrange individuals to organize some story collection activities on the forum, such as the grudges, love and revenge of the xx legion in the xx area server, or make some strategy posts, how to command different gvg gameplay, etc. Players may need these things more."

Jia Jia nodded: "This is easy to say, I will make arrangements when I look back."

"By the way, there is something else this time. Come to the conference room with me."

Zhong Ming took Jia Jia to the conference room, and the two sat down at the conference table.

"I want to arrange for Tianji Studio to develop a new game." Zhong Ming said.

"Is it still a mobile game?" Jia Jia asked.

Zhong Ming nodded: "Yes, it's roughly like this..."

Zhong Ming opened the concept map of the new game on the bracelet. This concept map is just a simple original painting, but it clearly shows the main content and gameplay of the game.

Like "Age of Dawn", it is still in a holographic projection mode, but this time the holographic projection mode no longer locks in the perspective, and players can adjust the perspective at will.

The entire site is a rectangular shape, with a relatively large city at each end, and a villain wearing a dragon robe and a crown at the top of the city above; there are two small cities on both sides of the big city, and the three cities are distributed in the shape of a "品".

On the opposite side, there is also a similar mirror image, except that the classical oriental city style has become a Western castle, and the style of the villain on the castle has also become a Western style, wearing a crown.

In the center of the map is a river channel with two narrow bridges on it. The small cities and narrow bridges on both sides are connected by a road, and there are two roads in total.

The whole map is very regular, although simple, but it looks quite comfortable.

Because it is a holographic projection mode, players can actually view the details of the game from any angle of view. In addition, players can also drag the entire scene and rotate horizontally with the center point of the map as the axis, and rotate at most 90 degrees, which means turning the entire rectangle from vertical to horizontal.

There are many different soldiers on the two roads, which look like a hodgepodge. However, they are both in Q-version style and have a relatively unified style.

Jia Jia saw some Chinese style in these soldiers, such as crossbow soldiers, chariot soldiers, light cavalry, etc. The soldiers on the opposite side were obviously of the Western type, including knights, archers, etc.

These are the types of troops that are closer to reality, but they are very small in number, and they are more imaginary creatures, and they can also be used as types of troops. For example, the flame-breathing dragons, skeleton warriors, goblins, and the east are thunder beasts, Bifang, Tengsnakes, Pixiu and so on.

There are also some special equipment, such as bed crossbows, siege cars, hot air balloons, etc., and finally some spells, such as large-scale thunderfall, fireballs, arrow rain, etc.

The corresponding interface ui is also drawn on the concept map. All soldiers and three towers of both sides have blood bars, while each person can use some arms cards to place arms on the map by resuming the energy bars. The result of the battle is also very simple. Each tower is dropped, a crown is added. If the main city is blown up, it means that the whole game is lost. Finally, the result of the battle is determined based on the number of crowns of both sides.

A very simple game concept map, a very simple game prototype, doesn't even require too much explanation from Zhong Ming. Jia Jia can understand it even if he is thinking about it.

"The name of this game is "City Guardians", and the English name is defele, or doc for short."

Jia Jia looked at the game concept map again and nodded: "Well, it shouldn't be difficult to do. I'll talk to the technology to see how to do it in detail."

Zhong Ming said: "The difficulty of making this game is definitely not high, but the pressure of numerical values ​​is greater. The health, attack power, movement speed, cost, etc. of each soldier must be carefully considered and designed, including various complex soldiers, ensuring that the strength gap between different decks will not be too great. However, differentiation must be made, because the cards in this game are also of quality."

"You should first think about how to do specific numerical balance. I will add another document to talk about the general economic system of this game, including tasks, treasure chests, and card drawings."

Zhong Ming gave a few simple sentences.

Now Jia Jia is the main designer of Tianji Studio, so Zhong Ming directly handed over these relatively simple games to Jia Jia.

Jia Jia received the concept picture and began to conceive some details of the game. Zhong Ming left Tianji Studio and returned to the 66th floor.

"City Guard" is actually Zhong Ming's previous life's "Clash of Royal Family". The gameplay is the same, but some oriental elements are added. Of course, there is another difference that the device's carrier has changed from a mobile phone to a bracelet, and the picture naturally changes from a plane to a holographic projection.

Tianji Studio shoulders the burden of profit. Although "Age of Dawn" is also making money, the profit speed is not particularly fast, at least it is still quite different from Zhong Ming's expectations, so it is almost time to make another game.

There are no technical difficulties in "City Guardians". Now, taking advantage of "Era of Dawn" to make Tianji Studio famous, and it just so happens that this game can be made and become Tianji Studio's next product.

...

On January 31, a big and small news happened in the technology circle.

Moya Technology issued an announcement stating that it received a resignation from Lin Xiaoguang, senior vice president in charge of handheld machine department business on January 28, and his resignation took effect on January 31. After discussion on the board of directors, Gao Dongfang, the former senior executive of the bracelet business department, took office as the senior vice president in charge of handheld machine department.

Moya Technology also stated that Lin Xiaoguang's resignation as vice president will not have an adverse impact on the company's production and operation. During his tenure, Lin Xiaoguang fulfilled his duties and performed his duties well. The board of directors expressed his sincere gratitude for his outstanding work during his tenure! This appointment meets the needs of the company's actual business development and will not have an adverse impact on the company's production and operation.

Of course, the announcements are all polite words, and that is for the outside world. The resignation of the vice president is not a trivial matter. Maybe others will think that Moya Technology has any internal struggles or production and operation issues, which will have an impact on the stock price.

Lin Xiaoguang also posted a statement on his personal Weibo, thanking Moya Technology for its cultivation and care in the past few years. This time he resigned was entirely due to personal reasons, and he was very affectionate about the company and was very reluctant to leave.

As for Lin Xiaoguang's next orientation, he has not disclosed it yet. He just said that he has been busy with work recently and has a lot of pressure. He needs to take time to spend time with his family and does not consider working in other companies for the time being.

This incident did not attract much attention from the outside world, but the insiders of Moya Technology were very clear. Lin Xiaoguang not only left by himself, but also poached six backbone members.

Lin Xiaoguang wanted to dig up the entire handheld machine business department, but in that case it would almost break up with Moya Technology. Many people would not let it go. Lin Xiaoguang discussed with Zhong Ming and felt that there was no need to create resistance for his resignation, so he just dug up six people at the right time.

The announcement underestimated that in fact, Lin Xiaoguang had to leave Moya Technology for some trouble, but overall it was still smooth.

For Moya Technology, the handheld machine business department is not a very core department. With such a large company full of talents, it is enough to transfer to another vice president, which will not have much impact on the department's business.
Chapter completed!
