I Just Want Players to Save Money, They Insist on Giving Me! Chapter 56 - 56 31 Urban Skyline Project Approval The Divine
Chapter 56: Chapter 31: Urban Skyline Project Approval! The Divine Proposal Dazzles Everyone!_1 Chapter 56: Chapter 31: Urban Skyline Project Approval! The Divine Proposal Dazzles Everyone!_1 “The company is also ranked?” Ke finally sat down on the boss chair he had been longing for.
But his butt hadn’t even ward the seat, and he hadn’t even picked up his teacup yet.
When Ke Jin heard Gou Chehua ntion a new concept.
Ga company rankings.
From D to SSS.
Of course, this is just an industry term within Blue Star’s gaming sector; in reality, there’s no need to categorize companies when registering them.
However, after years of settling in, major gaming platforms gradually began adopting this standard for distributing recomndations and traffic.
Players also preferred to look for gas based on the gaming company’s rank.
The logic is simple.
A company fad as SSS in the industry is almost certain to produce gas that are more fun than those made by lower-ranked companies.
This is a truth.
Rather than blindly digging through trash cans hoping to find God Grass,
it’s far more efficient to go through the past projects of top companies.
And as for the thod of judging a company’s rank, that’s quite straightforward as well.
Directly assess from the ga’s sales, quality, art, music, and several other dinsions.
Then categorize them into ten levels of ga quality, “Trash, diocre, Decent, Good, Great, Classic, Masterpiece, Hall of Fa, Epic, Godlike!”
Generally speaking, a gaming company that can produce at least two Decent gas can easily advance to a C-rank company, and their new gas will receive C-level traffic from major platforms.
Upon hearing this, Ke Jin glanced at the overall ratings of his previous few gas on NAA.
“Origin of Species” was labeled as diocre.
It couldn’t be helped; as a newbie’s first small ga, and with downloads just over fifty thousand, the revenue stream was a total ss.
You see, sales were also a part of the evaluation criteria.
So even though the gaplay of “Origin” was much higher than many other gas on the market, in the end, it still only earned the title of diocre.
“Iwanna” and “Goose Duck Kill” were both rated as Decent, influenced sowhat by their pricing.
“Gotham,” on the other hand, made a clean sweep and snagged the title of Good.
To Ke Jin, this ranking list seed a bit unreasonable.
If it were rated according to past Earth standards, with Iwanna’s popularity, it should at least be a Classic.
But there was no help for it, as the current rules were established by the locals, and he, a foreigner from Earth, had little say and could only think about it.
“Mr. Ke, our company’s rating has already t the C-level standard, and we have a Good work like ‘Gotham.’ If our next ga can continue to win the title of Good, we can apply to the Ga Supervisory Bureau to upgrade our company to B-level. Then we’ll have access to more resources and traffic,” Gou Chehua said after Ke Jin beca the boss, changing his address from Designer Ke to Mr. Ke.
In the beginning, Ke Jin wasn’t used to it, but after a second thought,
A boss should look the part.
It’s fine now with few people in the company, but when there are more employees, and each one calls him Designer Ke, or Ke,
It just won’t command respect.
So, he didn’t stop Gou Chehua from addressing him that way.
“Hmm, I’ve pretty much prepared the plan for the next ga. I haven’t managed to hire a secretary yet, so I’ll leave the arrangents to you,” Ke Jin said as he handed the thick blue folder containing “Urban Skyline” to Gou Chehua.
Upon receiving it, Gou Chehua was stunned.
This proposal…
How different it was from the proposals he had seen at Tianying Company.
During his three years working at Tianying, he had been responsible for several gas.
But at the initial stage of research and developnt for each ga, the proposal was just one page long…
At most, two pages.
It was a broad direction set by the higher-ups based on market trends and directions.
The details were to be fleshed out by the various departnts over ti.
The final combination of viable solutions might be as thick as the small blue book he now held in his hands.
But Mr. Ke went all out and handed him a big project right from the start?
“Mr. Ke, are you sure this is… for a ga?”
“Yeah, try to get it done within a month. If you’re understaffed, let know, and I’ll hire so more… interns,” Ke Jin said.
Ke Jin had once been a student himself, and after graduating from university, he had also worked hard for others.
He had hoped that if he ever got the chance to start his own company, he would treat these new generation students well.
But as it turned out…
Well, believe it or not.
Interns are indeed useful.
They’re not like those seasoned veterans who have been scrapping in the job market for over a decade, only looking to slack off and coast along.
They are young, full of energy, and curious about the whole world.
And of course, the main point is.
They’re cheap.
A monthly salary of 3000 yuan is sothing even a dog would turn down, saying it’s too little.
But offer it to a college student, and the student would say, ‘Holy crap! That much? Thanks, boss!’
See, he even thanks you.
Of course, Ke Jin wasn’t just so heartless capitalist.
The main thing was that the company was just starting, and there were no extra reserves.
His pocket was even cleaner than Ke Yu’s face.
If they truly did well, he would consider promoting them to full-ti employees.
Raise wages where they need to be raised, and distribute benefits where they should be given.
“Alright, I got it.” Gou Chehua left the CEO’s office, holding the ga plan in his hands.
He then gathered twenty or thirty employees who had just started work a few days ago.
“Brothers, follow to the eting room, we’ve got work to do.”
Once everyone was seated in the eting room, Gou Chehua, currently acting as the ga director and lead planner, walked to the central position with a small blue notebook in hand.
A group of employees sat below, looking at him with great anticipation.
“Hua Zi, what type of new ga is this?”
“I played one of Mr. Ke’s gas last month, and I have to say it was freakin’ amazing! I can’t believe I’m going to help Mr. Ke make gas next month, it feels like a dream!”
“ too, and Mr. Ke offers such a high salary, a whole 3200 a month! My old man Deng just gives a re 1500 Gold Coins, 500 to spend on gas, and 1000 on my girlfriend, which is never enough.”
“Bro, detail the part about spending on your girlfriend.”
“Okay, everyone quiet down. We are about to start the eting.” Watching the room gradually grow noisy, Gou Chehua gently tapped on the table and then placed the small blue book on it.
He opened the first page.
“Hmm… the new ga’s project na is ‘Urban Skyline’. From the brief introduction Mr. Ke provided, it’s a city-building type of ga. Players will need to play the role of a mayor, helping the city advance step by step toward prosperity…”
“That’s quite a fresh concept; I haven’t seen other gas do that before.” Gou Chehua praised the idea and continued, “Next, I’d like you all to share your thoughts on how we can develop and extend this ga further… Wait a second.” Gou Chehua casually flipped through a few pages, then his expression suddenly froze.
Generally speaking,
when company executives hand out a ga plan, they only provide a core outline, then let the employees have intense discussions and brainstorming, to finally expand the ga’s rich gaplay.
Gou Chehua initially intended to do just that.
However…
The detailed gaplay for this ga was written down in the first dozen pages of the ga plan.
Even going so far as to specify ‘what a passerby NPC should do’, which Mr. Ke had specially marked in the ga plan.
Gou Chehua’s face showed disbelief.
Was this… all done by Mr. Ke alone?
He wrote out such detailed ga content?
However, considering the bunch of employees staring eagerly at him, Gou Chehua realized he couldn’t show any lack of composure.
So he cleared his throat and said,
“Let’s skip the discussion of the ga content and dive deeper into the ga. First off, regarding the map modeling, does anyone have any good ideas… Wait a second.” Gou Chehua paused halfway through as he was talking.
Because, as he was speaking and flipping through the pages,
he discovered another issue…
In the 20-40 page section of the ga plan.
Mr. Ke had already completed the modeling for the ga as well…
All sorts of building drafts, the general appearance of various character NPCs, UI design, ga interface, and so on—all the things that would require the art team to work overti and might only yield a preliminary version.
But here in the ga plan, everything was there!
Good lord!
Mr. Ke, are you a god?
How co your ga plan has everything in it?
“Forget it, let’s also skip the discussion on ga modeling for now. Next, let’s talk about the ga’s soundtrack. The soundtrack is also an important part of the ga, everyone’s views are welco. Let’s discuss what type of music might best fit the the of the ga, feel free to share your ideas… Wait a second.”
Gou Chehua continued flipping a few pages,
and beads of sweat had ford on his forehead.
In the middle part of the ga plan, he even wrote down every single piece of sheet music, including so details of sound effects, denoted with symbols…
What you’ve written here isn’t sheet music… it’s outlandish!
No way, Mr. Ke, you understand music too?
My goodness!
But on second thought,
although the background music wasn’t particularly notable in the previous few gas, it was still there.
Gou Chehua hadn’t paid much attention while playing, but as long as it didn’t disrupt the gaming experience, it ant that the background music was up to par.
Therefore, Mr. Ke must understand music; he’s just been very modest about it until now.
“Well…” Gou Chehua initially wanted to ntion the copywriting part.
But upon inspecting the ga plan,
the copywriting was also included.
“Well…” Gou Chehua then thought about the visual effects.
Another flip through the ga plan,
and lo and behold, the standards for how visual effects should be created were already written down as well.
The further he flipped, the more sweat gathered on Gou Chehua’s forehead. By the ti he reached the last page of the plan, his head was swimming in sweat, and his pupils were constantly trembling.
He finally understood why this ga plan was so thick…
Because damn it, it had everything in it!
Mr. Ke had almost painstakingly written out all the details, and the employees just needed to follow the ga plan to proceed…
What in heaven’s na is this otherworldly ga plan!
“So…” Gou Chehua looked blankly at the employees below, who in turn were staring back at him, equally perplexed.
Everyone sat staring at each other in a daze.
After a long pause, Gou Chehua finally wiped the sweat from his forehead and said,
“Well then, let’s call it a day, everyone can start work directly.”
Employees: “????”
What the heck, just like that we’re done? We haven’t even understood anything…
