Chapter 1127: Boss Pei’s Suggestion
Pei Qian looked at the others. Everyone had different expressions.
Old Song and Cai Jiadong had not interacted much with Boss Pei, so they looked a little proud.
They were in charge of the VR glasses and the Animal Island ga respectively. Now that the finished product was out, they felt very proud. They could not wait to show off in front of Boss Pei.
Even Boss Pei would be very satisfied with such a product, right?
As for Lin Wan, Ye Zhizhou, and the others, they looked relatively calm because they had worked with Boss Pei many tis.
That was because they knew very well that no matter how outstanding a product or ga was, there must be a problem in Boss Pei’s eyes. It could not be perfect.
Boss Pei would definitely be able to judge from a higher dinsion and see flaws that no one could see!
Even if this product or ga really reached perfection, it was not particularly surprising to Boss Pei because everything was definitely within his expectations.
Pei Qian fell silent seeing everyone’s expressions.
He was a little flustered but he could not show it at all.
His character and image must not collapse!
He could not show his fear in front of ng Chang especially since he was looking at him that way!
Pei Qian nodded slightly. “Yes, it’s not bad.”
“However, I have two suggestions for changes. You can decide whether you want to change them or not.”
Lin Wan’s eyes lit up.
Indeed, Boss Pei saw the problem and ca to give pointers!
She imdiately nodded. “Go ahead, Boss Pei.”
Pei Qian pondered for a mont and said, “The first suggestion is the logo on the forehead of these VR glasses.”
“My idea is to draw a horizontal line in the middle of the logo on the forehead, across the entire logo.”
Everyone was stunned.
Old Song and Cai Jiadong were especially confused.
What did that an?
It was not difficult to tell the manufacturer to change the pattern slightly. After all, the VR glasses had not entered the mass-production stage.
What’s more, it would not be a big problem even if it entered the mass-production stage. This hexagon could be dismantled. This was because Old Song had considered the possibility of a new model or a cooperative version with other IPs in the future. Thus, this position might be printed with other logos and made into so removable module designs.
However, the problem was... what was the point?
Pei Qian did not explain much because he could not say his original thoughts.
What’s more, he knew that even if he did not explain these people, he would naturally find a suitable explanation.
His intention was simple: taphysics.
Pei Qian thought of the ninja forehead cover in so ani when he saw the forehead cover of the VR glasses, especially the very flat hexagon.
In that ani, a horizontal line was drawn on the forehead, which ant that there was a huge problem with this ninja. He had betrayed the original ninja village.
Thus, Pei Qian hoped that all the VR glasses could be drawn in such a line, which was to hint that this product was bound to have huge problems, fail, and betray Slow Movent Studio.
However, there wasn’t any similar ani in this world, so no one could understand this .
Old Song took a piece of paper and drew a sketch on it. Then, he studied it for a long ti.
Suddenly, he seed to realize sothing. “Eh, it looks even better after drawing a line like that!”
“I understand now. To a certain extent, this line has changed the structure and layout of the forehead-protecting symbol. Slow Movent Studio’s logo is displayed in the middle of the hexagon. The two sides of the logo look empty. It doesn’t seem to have a good interaction with the hexagonal forehead-protecting symbol.”
“However, after this line was drawn, the entire hexagon and Slow Movent Studio’s logo beca one. It looks more pleasing to the eye!”
Lin Wan pondered for a mont and said, “Yes, I think this can achieve a unique effect.”
“It’s very common for other companies to print their own logos on their own products. In fact, even if other than so companies that have their own style, no matter how good the logo looks, it would not look nice if it was printed.”
“If we draw a horizontal line like that, it would be completely different from the approach of other companies. It would show a unique personality!”
“What’s more, this line also represents a break and overturn of tradition. The VR glasses are a product that surpasses the tis. The VR glasses that we developed have also made many subversive designs that perfectly match the spiritual core!”
Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin exclaid, “Amazing!”
“We’ve only printed an ordinary company logo before the line was drawn. It was nothing special.”
“However, after drawing the line, it could convey such a spiritual aning that is compatible with our workspace and this VR eye product. It also left a deep impression on players!”
“This is probably the finishing touch, right? A true master designer can turn sothing rotten into sothing magical with just a horizontal line?”
Everyone was amazed.
Even ng Chang was a little conquered.
At first, he did not think that there was anything special adding the line. However, it made sense after hearing everyone’s analysis!
Coupled with this line, not only did it increase the beauty, but it also increased the cultural connotation. It was simply the finishing touch!
Lin Wan quickly said, “Boss Pei, what about the other suggestions?”
Pei Qian cleared his throat and continued speaking, afraid that these people would continue to fill in the blanks and co up with sothing amazing.
“Second, I hope that there will be fewer novice guides in these small gas.”
This was even simpler and more clear.
Animal Island VR provided a brand new ga interaction model. The learning cost of players would definitely be very high.
It was not like client-side gas that made FPS gas. Once players entered, they would know to shoot with the left key, aim with the right key, and switch bullets with the R key. After all, these settings were the sa in all FPS gas.
However, at the mont, there was no famous VR ga that had a wide range of players to set the operating standards for VR gas. Thus, after coming to Animal Island VR, these players had to learn how to set the bow and arrow, and how to swing the rod to fish from scratch.
Pei Qian did not hope for the no novice guide to dissuade all players.
If no one played it well, the ga might be judged by the system as a semi-finished product. What if the system did not count it towards settlent?
However, it was still possible to reduce the guidance of novices.
If he could dissuade a few players, he would dissuade a few players. If he could dissuade one player, it would not be too much. It would not be too much if he could dissuade a hundred thousand players.
In any case, it was a good design as long as it could dissuade players.
This ti, everyone was even more confused.
This behavior was even more contrary to common sense. That was because all ga designers would understand a basic design concept when they first entered the industry: The more detailed and rich the novice guide, the better.
That was because you would never be able to imagine what would happen when players experience a new ga.
The IQ of humans and their gas were different. So people were naturally smart and knew how to play gas once they started; so people were very ignorant at the novice stage and could not even do simple operations.
What’s more, sotis players were not stupid. They were simply stuck because their brain circuits did not match the designer’s.
The number of players in the ga was large enough, so it was inevitable that there would be a few players with relatively clear minds. Once they did not have sufficient novice guidance, they might be stuck and lost.
Therefore, the novice guide would sotis be very retarded. It looked like it was prepared for three-year-olds. That was unavoidable.
Lin Wan frowned again.
Suddenly, she had a flash of inspiration. “I understand now!”
Pei Qian quickly raised his hand and interrupted her. “It’s good that you understand. You don’t have to say it every ti!”
Good lord, You’ve been misinterpreting everything I’ve said in person in an instant. How could this happen?
It’s your business how you want to interpret it. Don’t say it in front of , alright?!
Lin Wan imdiately understood. “Alright, Boss Pei.”
“Er... there’s another problem.”
“Why don’t you na this pair of spectacles?”
Pei Qian was speechless.
Why are you giving all the naming tasks now?
He could not rember how many nas he had already given.
However, on further thought, it was alright. Who asked him to be a little naming genius? What’s more, he would be able to get a good sign if he nad himself.
“Alright.”
Pei Qian thought about it. In his impression, most of the VR glasses were nad with an English word. What’s more, they had a certain aning. That was more classy.
The individual Chinese characters were not bad, but Pei Qian did not want to emphasize the dostically-produced identity of this pair of spectacles. He did not want to stimulate everyone’s support for dostically-produced goods. He could just na it in English and follow the trend.
Others ca up with nas like Quest, Index, Rift.
“Then... let’s call it a doubt.”
Pei Qian’s original intention was that the success of the glasses was filled with doubts and could not be successful.
The word ‘question’ had a neutral aning to it. It might be more negative if he used the word doubt.
It ant that it was completely uncertain and unreliable.
Lin Wan nodded slightly.
She might not be able to understand the aning of this na now but she would definitely understand it in the future.
“All in all, thank you so much, Boss Pei!”
“It’s like seeing the sun.”
Pei Qian waved his hand, indicating that it was a small matter and not worth ntioning.
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll make a move first.”
Pei Qian waved and left with ng Chang after Holding the scene.
Pei Qian’s final move completely stunned Old Song and Cai Jiadong.
They had thought that the glasses and ga were perfect, but Boss Pei had easily found problems.
What’s more, it was not a trivial problem. It was a critical problem that would improve after changing!
They could not help but feel emotional. As expected of Boss Pei!
Previously, they had heard everyone praise Boss Pei to be god-like. They did not believe it. However, the praises were not exaggerated at all from the looks of it!
ng Chang was also shocked.
At first, ng Chang had already looked at Boss Pei with the ntality that a funeral was not a big deal. However, he did not dare to do anything now.
Needless to say, the first suggestion was answered by everyone present.
There might not be a clear explanation for the second suggestion but from Lin Wan’s expression, it was obvious that it had a huge effect on the ga.
After coming out and seeing that no one was around, ng Chang asked curiously, “Boss Pei, are you really that confident?”
“Do you really feel that the reverse publicity plan will definitely succeed, so it would not affect the publicity plan at all even with your suggestions and improvents on the product?”
Pei Qian sniggered inside.
Which eye of yours could tell that I was giving suggestions and improving the product?
Both of my suggestions are trying to reduce the difficulty of the publicity plan for next month!
However, they had misunderstood...
However, he could not explain this. He could only remain silent and refuse to answer.
ng Chang was even more certain of his guess seeing Boss Pei’s unfathomable expression.
Indeed, Boss Pei wanted to prove to with reverse publicity, and also make VR glasses and gas beco popular and make money!
It would obviously be a loss to Boss Pei if the reverse publicity was feasible and caused the sales to be poor.
Boss Pei’s final goal would be to complete the reverse publicity and earn a lot of money from VR glasses and gas!
However... could he really do that?
ng Chang felt that it was impossible to last two weeks, let alone a month.
However, it was obvious that Boss Pei did not treat this as a difficult problem at all looking at his stances.
Indeed, he had thought that Boss Pei was difficult previously. That had been an illusion.
He should just watch Boss Pei’s operations obediently!
...
After Boss Pei left, Cai Jiadong asked, “Why did Boss Pei ask us to work less on the novice guide? This seems... a little unreasonable.”
Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin looked at each other, then turned to Lin Wan. “We have so ideas, but they might not be comprehensive.”
Lin Wan nodded. “Let explain.”
“Considering that many players are playing VR gas for the first ti and don’t know how to operate the VR ga, they have to go through more novice guidance. This is a problem that ordinary designers would think of.”
“However, how could Boss Pei be an ordinary designer?”
“He must have thought of a higher level!”
“Boss Pei is definitely not trying to dissuade new players with the lesser novice guide.”
“What Boss Pei ans is for us to cut down on the complicated steps while completing the novice guide, so that the entire process would be smoother, simpler, and more natural!”
“The best novice guide is not to use large paragraphs of text or voice to tell players how to do it, but to let players know how to use it the mont they see sothing!”
“For example, put a few raw apples far away from the fire, and a few ripe apples next to the fire. There is no need to tell players that ‘the fire can roast apples’. Once players see this scene, they will imdiately understand the ga chanism.”
“It’s the sa for ‘Animal Island VR’. If we use interrupted voices or words to teach players, it would be very cumberso and would also make players feel more out of character.”
“If we use a more natural thod to guide players, it would be concise and allow players to naturally learn these operations while experiencing the fun of the ga. The most important thing is that this teaching thod can also show the superiority of VR gas!”
“Take archery for example. Which button to press would completely depend on the designer’s thoughts on a computer ga. It’s very difficult for players to guess. Players would only form mories if many archery gas were fixed and shot with the right key of the mouse.”
“However, there is no need to teach at all in the VR ga. Players would naturally try to use their left hand to draw the bow, their right hand to shoot the arrow, and let go of their hand to shoot.”
“Therefore, we should abandon the cumberso instructions and use more ingenious thods to guide players.”
“For example, think of ways to let players see the arrow feathers on their backs and extend to their right shoulder, hinting that they could directly draw the arrow from their right shoulder. Let a small animal that knows how to hunt make a hunting action and guide players to do similar operations.”
“Wouldn’t it also give players a huge sense of achievent to integrate the guidance into the ga’s content so that players would naturally figure it out and think of how to do it?”
A realization dawned on Cai Jiadong. “I see!”
“If we change the ga mode, we naturally have to change the way the novice guides are made.”
“Boss Pei’s idea is the result of considering the special format of VR gas and thinking about problems from a higher level!”
Old Song could not help but nod.
He might not understand ga design but he imdiately felt that Boss Pei was amazing after hearing what Lin Wan said.
“However...”
“I don’t like the na Doubt. It’s not a very good word.”
As the project manager of the VR glasses and the actual designer and developer of this pair of glasses, Old Song was a little dissatisfied with this na.
Lin Wan said, “There must be a special aning behind Boss Pei’s na.”
“At the mont, everyone feels that this na is not nice. The main reason is that the aning has not been revealed and has not given this na a special human aura.”
“This na will definitely leave a deep impression once Boss Pei’s true aning is revealed!”
