Chapter 1005: VR Manual Design
April 25th, Wednesday morning.
Ye Zhizhou ca to the address given by Lin Wan and arrived at Slow Movent Studio’s office.
Ye Zhizhou took over as the new person-in-charge of Shang Yang Gas after Lin Wan left Shang Yang Gas. The employees of Shang Yang Gas had already had a farewell al with Lin Wan.
They might be a little reluctant but as the saying went, all good things must co to an end. What’s more, appointnt shifts have always been frequent in Tengda Corporation. Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin knew that they would have to take over sooner or later, so they were not too sad.
What’s more, Slow Movent Studio was in Jingzhou, not far from Shang Yang Gas. They could visit each other often and there would be many more chances to et in the future.
Ye Zhizhou had co today to discuss the new ga with Lin Wan.
Previously, Boss Pei had already confird that Slow Movent Studio’s first ga would be a VR ga. However, the details of the ga had not been finalized.
Ye Zhizhou was here to help make decisions.
As far as Ye Zhizhou knew, apart from him and Lin Wan, there was also a product manager in charge of developing VR glasses in Shenhua’s cell phone departnt and a new chief planner hired by Slow Movent Studio.
Once the na and details of the ga were finalized, they had to get Slow Movent Studio to move on the right track as soon as possible. Sotis, entering the research and developnt process as soon as possible was the best way to sharpen the team.
Ye Zhizhou ca to Slow Movent Studio and subconsciously looked at the work environnt.
Yes, it was indeed similar to Tengda Gas and Shang Yang Gas.
Slow Movent Studio might just be established but there were already employees working on their desks. One had to admit that the efficiency of this recruitnt was quite high.
Ye Zhizhou ca to the conference room and sat down in an empty seat.
Lin Wan was seriously flipping through a thick stack of resus. She picked out the ones that fit the criteria and placed them aside, preparing to invite them for an interview.
Lin Wan tidied up her resu and poked at the conference table seeing that everyone was here. “Everyone is here. Let’s start quickly. There are still a few interviews in the afternoon.”
Ye Zhizhou realized that Lin Wan was becoming more and more like a model leader. When she first arrived at Shang Yang Gas, she had been hesitant and indecisive. Now, she looked more and more like a qualified leader.
“You’re very efficient. It’s only been three days and you’ve already hired new employees?” Ye Zhizhou sipped his tea as he said.
Lin Wan smiled. “Yes, the recruitnt mailbox imdiately exploded as soon as we put up the signboards of Shenhua Corporation and Tengda Corporation and uploaded Shang Yang Gas’ successful gas.”
“Many people want to enter Tengda Gas, but they can’t. They have to take exams. The benefits here are similar to Tengda’s. There is also a reputation. Many people are trying their best to get in.”
“However... I am also under a lot of pressure because of this relation to Tengda. If the ga is not done well, I would really lose out to Boss Pei.”
“Let introduce everyone. This is the current person-in-charge of Shang Yang Gas, Ye Zhizhou. This is the product manager of Shenhua Corporation’s cell phone business, Old Song. This is the chief designer of Chi Xing Workspace, Cai Jiadong...”
Lin Wan quickly introduced everyone.
Old Song was the product manager. He was in charge of borrowing Shenhua Corporation’s resources to make the new VR glasses. Cai Jiadong was the new chief designer. His resu was unknown, but these two looked to be in their thirties or forties. They should have a lot of experience.
Cai Jiadong shook hands with Ye Zhizhou. “Nice to et you, nice to et you! I’ve played all the gas developed by Shang Yang Gas. I didn’t expect the chief designer to be so young. I’m really ashad.”
Ye Zhizhou quickly said, “No, no. It’s all because of Tengda Corporation’s platform. I would probably still be an executive planner if not for Boss Pei.”
Both sides praised each other for a while before getting down to business.
Lin Wan distributed the docunts as she said, “These are the key points that were set after the eting with Boss Pei. Everyone, take a look.”
She looked at Ye Zhizhou and said, “We’ll do the sa thing as we did at Shang Yang Gas. We’ll analyze Boss Pei’s intentions first, and then determine the form of the ga.”
Cai Jiadong took the docunt with both hands and read it very seriously, his expression extrely sincere.
He might be the chief planner of Slow Movent Studio in na but it was a false title. He was only in charge of executing the work. He could only gradually take over the design work after he got used to the work routine here.
Cai Jiadong’s resu as a designer was very good. He had many years of experience as a chief designer in a large dostic ga company and had also brought out successful projects.
There were two reasons why he ca to Slow Movent Studio. First, the treatnt here was better than his original company. Second, it was because of Tengda Gas.
Every ga designer had a dream deep down.
Making gas with paywalls could indeed make money, but it was only a job. It would not be very satisfying. On the other hand, being able to create a 3A ga that belonged to the designer was sothing that the designer would be proud of.
Mission and Choice had reignited the passion of many designers like Cai Jiadong who had been silent for many years. Therefore, he accepted the job without any hesitation.
Cai Jiadong might have rich ga design experience, there was a huge difference between a 3A masterpiece and a ga with paywalls.
What’s more, he had long heard that Tengda Gas and Shang Yang Gas had a unique ga design that belonged solely to Boss Pei. He could use this opportunity to learn from them.
He looked at the docunt and realized that there were a few hard rules on it, including the input of the ga and VR glasses, the genre of the ga, the general style, and so on.
Cai Jiadong looked at it and imdiately looked shocked.
20 million yuan for the glasses and 20 million yuan for the ga?
Invest so much money... into a casual ga with cartoonish style?
Cai Jiadong was very confused. Based on his experience, these rules were obviously contradictory and would not work at all even though there were only a few rules in this docunt.
It was ridiculous enough to invest 20 million yuan in casual gas with cartoonish style. Yet, he had to spend 20 million yuan to develop a VR glass for a single ga?
If it were other gas companies, this suggestion would definitely be rejected imdiately. However, over here... it seed to be sothing that they were used to?
Cai Jiadong, who had just arrived, did not dare to ask too much. He could only listen quietly.
Lin Wan looked at the product manager, Old Song, first. “How much can we achieve if we spend 20 million yuan on developing VR glasses?”
Old Song answered truthfully. “It would be enough if we were to develop the prototype of the glasses. It might even be too much. I suggest that we don’t have to invest so much money. After all, the dostic market is not big. We can’t expect it to sell well.”
“I’ll make do with a basic one. Make the concept popular and sell it to recoup the cost.”
Lin Wan imdiately shook her head. “That won’t do. The research and developnt budget can only be more, no less. Tell how much you can do.”
Old Song thought for a mont. “Then we can only make an issue on the controller.”
“However, controller... seems to be very difficult to be creative.”
“VR’s controller is nothing more than a joystick or a button.”
“At the mont, there are two types of handles. The first type is relatively simple. Single-handed without a joystick. There is only a simple touch board, one or two buttons, and a trigger key. The other type is more complicated. There are two joysticks with two hands. There are four buttons on the thumb, and there is a trigger key on the index finger.”
“The first type is too simple. It would not cost much if it was purely research and developnt. Since we have sufficient funds, we must do the second type.”
“However, the second type is already very complete. There are already buttons on each finger, which is much more in line with the design of the human body. There’s no need for us to forcibly change the design for the sake of making a new design. At most, we’ll just modify it.”
“That’s why I don’t think there’s much point in redesigning it.”
Lin Wan pondered for a mont. “What if we add more functions?”
Old Song shook his head. “There’s nothing to add. The thumbs of the two hands have to press the joystick and the four buttons on the front. The index finger has to press the trigger. How can we add functions if all the fingers are utilized?”
There was a short silence. Obviously, no one knew how to spend the money.
