Chapter 1512: The Future You Choose!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Pei Qian’s words stunned everyone.
What the hell?
‘The financial group is actually myself?
‘The large financial groups in Cyberpunk had always represented extre monopoly capital. They were the root cause of all pain in the Cyberpunk world. They were evil representatives of exploitation and squeezing the ordinary people at the bottom.
‘As long as it was a Cyberpunk the, these large financial groups were undoubtedly the biggest villains.
However, Boss Pei was going to make a Cyberpunk the now. He was going to make all of Tengda’s industries into it? And beco the antagonist?
Ridiculous!
Everyone imdiately understood why they did not use the background story of Tomorrow is Beautiful.
That was because Tomorrow is Beautiful had a ready-made worldview. It was vague, but the various advertisents embedded in it had already set a soft border.
If he wanted to use Tengda’s industry as the financial group in the story, it would conflict with the setting of Tomorrow is Beautiful. It was actually not possible to package it.
So people understood what Boss Pei ant by ‘in the future of a parallel universe and a virtual city that fras the world’.
The parallel universe ant that this world also had various industries of Tengda and Tengda;
In the future universe, it ant that Tengda’s industry had already developed into a monopoly-type super financial group. It was a state of the future.
Taking over the entire world and the virtual city ant that the entire world had nothing to do with the current world and Jingzhou.
However, no matter what, it did not sound right to put Tengda’s own industry in the ga, beco a large financial group, and beco the embodint of large capital
‘That was because these industries were around him. They might even have been brought up by these people in charge. He was very familiar with them.
‘That was like making a person deeply influenced by Eastern culture create a superhero story about Western culture based on himself.
It must be awkward no matter how he made it up.
Zhu Xiaoce hesitated for a mont before saying, “So... the antagonists are ourselves? What about the righteous side? Who will resist us?”
Pei Qian said, “Everyone.”
“Everyone in the world must fight back against us.
“However, they will definitely fail. After all, Tengda is invincible.”
Everyone exchanged confused looks.
Sothing was amiss. The more he heard, the more ridiculous it sounded.
Everyone was resisting? Wasn’t that the public enemy?
‘Tengda is undefeatable’ sounded good, but in such a world, the villains were undefeatable. It felt double the self-mockery.
Ye Zhizhou asked, “Boss Pei, you haven’t said if this ga is a standalone ga or an online ga.”
Pei Qian pondered for a mont. “A standalone ga? No, online ga? Hmm... not all.”
He fell into a dilemma, feeling that there was a problem in either way.
A standalone ga was actually the path of a 3A masterpiece. The cost of developnt was high, but the process was relatively controllable.
It would be an outstanding piece as long as he displayed the plot in the ga honestly.
Of course, if the plot fed sh*t, it might indeed dissuade players. However, the rules that were applicable in other companies might not be applicable in Tengda.
Take Tomorrow is Beautiful for example. The plot was ant to be fed sh*t, but the final outco was completely different.
Given Tengda’s current success rate in standalone gas, Pei Qian really did not have much confidence.
What about online gas?
Pei Qian could not tell how such a work should be made into an online ga.
Make it into a traditional MMORPG? That would definitely not do because it was completely incompatible with the thod of standalone gas.
Pei Qian did not want to give up on standalone gas because he would spend more money. The upper limit of his losses would be higher. What’s more, he would show Tengda’s evil image more fully.
Online gas were relatively weak in expressing the plot. If they could not display Tengda’s negative image very well and turned it into advertising for Tengda’s industry, there would be a huge problem.
However, Pei Qian also wanted to combine the gaplay with the standalone ga and do so tricks so that the chances of failure would be higher.
After all, pure standalone gas had been successful. Perhaps a magical chemical reaction would be produced if the two gaplay were combined?
Pei Qian pondered for a mont. “A standalone ga with online gaplay!”

In any case, he did not care about the design. The two gaming departnts were in charge of the design. It was completely up to fate to propose a concept.
Everyone took notes in their notebooks.
He did not really understand, but he noted it down and tried to figure it out slowly.
The conference room fell into a temporary silence. Yu Fei raised his hand weakly and said, “Boss Pei, this background seems to be completely different from the background of my novel...”
Pei Qian retorted, “Didn’t you only make a small portion of the novel’s background? Since the impact is not big, you can modify it slightly.”
Yu Fei: “This... Alright.”
His first reaction might be a little strange but he thought about it carefully and could indeed modify it.
‘That was because his worldview was very incomplete. Until now, he had not had any good ideas. If he followed Boss Pei’s instructions and divided Tengda’s various industries into large financial groups, it would be a good idea to perate all aspects of urban life.
At the very least, he was very familiar with these industries. There were many ready-made materials to be used.
What’s more, the people from the two gaming departnts and Fei Huang Workspace would also participate in the developnt. At that ti, there would be a large number of concept designs. These pictures would be very helpful to stimulate his imagination and inspiration.
As for the plot that had been written, most of it could be used. It would not be a problem to modify the rest or think of other ways to resolve it.
Yu Fei even had the urge to push down all his current works and rewrite them after hearing Boss Pei’s approach.
It was nothing special!
Look at Boss Pei. His imagination was bold and imaginative!
Huang Sibo was almost done recording everything down. He raised his hand and asked, “Boss Pei, are movies and gas still the sa as ‘Mission and Choice’? Are the plots combined? Are the movie plots part of the ga plot?”
Pei Qian imdiately shook his head. “No!”
What a joke. I will definitely not make the mistake of Mission and Choice a second ti!
One of the reasons why the ga ‘Mission and Choice! was so popular was that they could play gas and movies. Even though RTS gas were a niche ga, many people who did not have the foundation of RTS gas could play very happily because the ga’s operating mode was simplified, the AI
effect, and the smooth plot.
If this combined event happened again, sothing big would really happen.
Therefore, he had to disassemble it!
Pei Qian added, “Movies and gas can only have common backgrounds. However, the ga plot has to be completely separated. There shouldn’t be too much connection.”
Ye Zhizhou raised his hand and asked, “Boss Pei, does every departnt have to beco a huge financial group that directly impacts people’s lives? Is the ga industry the sa?”
Pei Qian nodded. “That’s right. It’s easy to influence the ga industry. You can exaggerate a little. For example, virtual reality gas steal user information, invade user privacy, make players addicted to gas to escape from reality, and so on...”
“Think more extre and fully utilize your imagination!”
Ye Zhizhou nodded silently.
Good lord, this was not sothing that ordinary villains could do. They were simply nailed to the pillar of sha.
Everyone knew what to do with Ye Zhizhou’s question.
He had to use his imagination to imagine the most extre monopoly situation after the various departnts and industries developed. Then, he had to perform in gas and movies.
What was the bottom line? There was no bottom line!
However, since Boss Pei had said that the ga and movie’s plot only had the sa background and the details were not related, it ant that the ga and movie could focus on different sides.
He had to think about how to perform.
The tasks assigned by Boss Pei were becoming increasingly simple. This ant that the capabilities of the various departnts were improving. Boss Pei no longer had to plan the ga ticulously like before. He could give a simple frawork and then hand the specific work to his subordinates.
‘That ant that everyone’s abilities had improved, and Boss Pei’s trust in everyone had increased!
Boss Pei’s requests were as broad and imaginative as ever, but everyone was filled with motivation. They had to do this project well!
Pei Qian suddenly panicked seeing how confident everyone was.
Sothing was amiss!
Did these people understand my design intentions?
‘There probably wasn’t.
He had to emphasize it to them.
Pei Qian cleared his throat and said, “I’ll make it clear again. Tengda appeared as the biggest villain in this story background. It has to make players and viewers hate it as much as possible. It must not be beautified or misunderstood by the audience.”
“want them to see the serious evil that Tengda will bring when it becos a monopoly in the future, understand?”
“Don’t let them look forward to it, and don’t let it have any advertising effect.”
Pei Qian knew very well that it was common for creators to be misunderstood.
For example, there was a series that was originally a work against Utopia. It aroused people’s vigilance by describing a future world that looked beautiful but had no humanity.
However, when this series was filming, it accidentally made the future world too beautiful. It was filled with handso n and beautiful won. They were advanced in technology and had no worries. There were so ironic content but their performance was a little unbalanced. The audience began to
yearn for this world. They sincerely felt that this world was quite good and wanted to transmigrate.
If that happened to the ga that Pei Qian was going to create, he would be in deep trouble.
Therefore, he had to make it clear in advance so that these people would not misunderstand.
Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce looked at each other. Obviously, another path that they had thought of had been rejected by Boss Pei.
However, it was not a big problem. The more Boss Pei rejected, the clearer the direction would be.
Yu Fei said, “Boss Pei, we definitely can’t use the na of my current novel. Why don’t we change the na? Do you have any good ideas?”
Pei Qian nodded subtly.
He had already thought about it in advance. This ti, he decided to co up with the most straightforward and boring na.
“It’s called “The Future You Choose!”
