I Just Want Players to Save Money, They Insist on Giving Me! Chapter 55 - 55 30 Number One Player Company Established2

Chapter 55: Chapter 30: Number One Player Company Established!_2 Chapter 55: Chapter 30: Number One Player Company Established!_2 With his own genius little plan in place as a safety net, there was no way players would be charged even a penny, yet they would still be able to receive a minor shock to the ga from the designers from Blue Star’s rural areas.

Why not go for it!

————

After deciding on “Skyline” as the next ga, Ke Jin started to get busy.

He needed a lot of hands now.

Even though he had already flipped through the project plan for Skyline.

It was extrely detailed.

There was no need to start from scratch like with other new gas, discussing values, target audiences, establishing styles, modeling, painting, programming, copywriting, music, and so on, followed by adjustnts, proofreading, and reworking.

After all that, still ending up with a bunch of bugs waiting to be fixed.

Even though one bug is a bug, multiple bugs can work.

But if he could have less trouble, he could also pay out less in salaries, couldn’t he?

A perfect project plan would save Ke Jin a lot of hassle.

It even included rough sketches for the ga’s composition, modeling, character standing illustrations, etc.

Even the musical scores for the soundtrack were included.

It was quite outrageous.

Ke Jin’s plan was also quite straightforward.

First, establish a company, then recruit people.

For the company part, with the changes in tis, it was no longer as cumberso as in the early years.

Spend a couple of thousand yuan to find a professional agency, submit a bank account and company address, and within three to five days, the process could be approved.

The registered capital wouldn’t cost much either.

Usually, those who need tens or even hundreds of millions in registered capital are involved in the financial industry.

Like securities companies, fund custody, futures, private banking, etc.

But for a ga company like the one Ke Jin needed to register, if it wasn’t a joint-stock system, 100,000 yuan would suffice.

Ke Jin had no plans to establish a joint-stock company.

That would be ridiculous.

With so many excellent ga IPs in hand, why would I bring in investors to share my cake of shares?

The previous idea was forgotten, but recognized as: purely throwing money around.

Control—Ke Jin needed absolute control of the company!

Everything else was easy, except for naming the company.

Ke Jin had a minor disagreent with the agency.

Ke Jin obstinately wanted to na the company ‘Number One Player.’

The person from the agency said that this was not appropriate, as a company na with four characters was too much of a mouthful and not good for future developnt.

Ke Jin said okay, then call it Expert Player Company.

After all, “number one” ans expert, and the suffix “player” remains the sa. Isn’t it simplified to “expert player”?

The agency was silent for a mont, then said.

“Let’s call it Number One Player Virtual Entertainnt then.”

“Chì chù,” Ke Jin left, satisfied.

…

After resolving the company registration issue,

Ke Jin ran around for several days, selecting a location for the company.

Finally, at the strong recomndation of his younger sister,

he chose a small tree-lined alley next to Jianglin University.

There, there was an unused office building with three floors, each about five hundred square ters.

Not too big, not too small.

Last year, it was originally an escape room venue, and business was booming.

Afterward, rumors spread that it was haunted, and over ti no one went there anymore.

Later it was learned that it was just a rhythm led by a competitor across the street, but it was too late to recover the lost popularity.

Furthermore, rumors of hauntings, even if they were just rumors, made many business people quite superstitious about it.

So it had been left unused ever since.

But Ke Jin was quite satisfied after looking it over.

Standing at the floor-to-ceiling windows of the company and looking outside.

A gust of wind had the trees on both sides casting a carpet of leafy shadows onto the ground.

It was quite picturesque.

Moreover, Ke Yu, being his exclusive top-notch artist, naturally couldn’t avoid being… “utilized” by him after starting university.

Having the company closer to her would make commuting more convenient, and if she encountered any minor mishaps at school, he could be there to lend a hand.

As for whether the place was haunted or not.

Well, he was bound to make horror gas sooner or later anyway.

Who knows, for publicity, he might even place a couple of life-size female ghost figures at the company’s entrance.

He wasn’t scared at all.

He talked to the landlord about the rent.

Due to its location near the school, the rent was not exactly cheap.

It was 8 yuan per square ter per month.

That worked out to be about 12,000 yuan in total.

In the past, a monthly rent of 12,000 yuan would have equaled two or three months of his salary; Ke Jin didn’t even dare to think about it.

But now, it seed sowhat acceptable.

With the company address settled, all that remained was to acquire the equipnt and staff, and then the company could officially open for business!

In terms of equipnt, Ke Jin planned to opt for so stronger hardware.

He would start with five 4090-level graphics cards, mainly for running graphic rendering, UI visual effects, and so on.

For CPUs, he would go for the enterprise-level behemoth, the Ryzen Rupture 5995, with just one sufficing to more than et the capability needed for developing the engine.

The rest of the computers would be fitted with 4070-level graphics cards, paired with slightly lower-tier i9-13900KF processors; being able to overclock from ti to ti was enough for map modeling and art modeling purposes.

He would also order a few lower-end machines in bulk to et the everyday office needs of departnts such as the front desk, ga custor service, and finance, which do not require high computer specs.

Planning to initially purchase 20 machines, he budgeted around 300,000 yuan for them.

Additionally, about 100,000 yuan would be spent on acquiring equipnt for sound effects and voice recording.

The rest of his budget would be for decor, furniture, and various odds and ends.

After busily completing this round of tasks, Ke Jin tallied his expenses.

Boy oh boy.

The hard-earned savings of 700,000 yuan he had accumulated were wiped out in an instant.

Fortunately, “Gotham” was still bringing in inco sporadically since it had reached the top 50 on the NAA list.

He was making about 5,000 yuan a day.

This sum should more than suffice for ongoing staff wages and benefits.

As for his other three gas, because of their rather unconventional pricing, their revenue was negligible.

When it ca to hiring people,

Ke Jin had a plan as well.

Key employees needed to be recruited slowly; he had to choose his five-star generals carefully.

This couldn’t be rushed.

He didn’t necessarily need to find exceptionally talented employees, but at the very least, he needed to avoid hiring a traitor.

For non-staff roles, he could hire locally.

He could pick so university students from the plantation next door… Oh, it turned out to be a university.

He could select so students from Jianglin University to work as temps and when he had more funds, he could slowly hire more suitable candidates.

“Task completed!” Almost a month of bustle inside and out,

Ke Jin looked up at the signboard ‘Number One Player Virtual Entertainnt’ that the decorator was hanging up at the entrance of the company.

He clapped his hands and stood with his hands on his hips, staring for a while at those letters reflecting the sunlight.

“This place will definitely beco a ‘Jerusalem’ where all gars will co to worship, my number one shareholder,” he said with a twist of his head and a light laugh, speaking to Ke Yu who was standing beside him, gazing dreamily at the new company, her youthful face full of longing.
