The meeting is over.
Although it didn't go well at first, Meng Shu's words came out later.
After Mr. Liang of Infinite Entertainment expressed his support, the others stopped saying anything, and Deputy Director Li never said anything again.
After clearly explaining all aspects of the settings of "The Face", the meeting ended perfectly.
The notebooks of Xu Hong and the others contain three pages full of information about this game.
Especially Xia Nianzhen, because she is a scene designer and knows that the mansion in this game is very important, so she also roughly copied the sketches from the meeting to facilitate subsequent reference work.
This is especially true for Qiu Yuan. After seeing the content of the game, he understood that he was under pressure, because he was the only modeler in the company, and the game scenes were obviously stacked, so he must be the busiest one.
Although Xia Nianzhen also knows modeling software and can help share some of the work, he will always do the bulk of the work himself.
Not to mention, there was something extremely uncomfortable for him to complete.
That was Lucy's torn jaw in the game, which needed to be modeled.
This is a challenge for him...
Although Mr. Meng said that it didn't need to be too bloody, as long as it was stained with a little blood, he still left this thing until the end.
As for Xu Hong, because he is an animator, what he needs to do is guide the character's movements and correct them on the software.
Regarding his work, Meng Shu, as the boss, is planning to temporarily recruit a few part-time people to act as actors.
Now the employees are assigned a full workload. If they are asked to dress and shoot actions, it will obviously delay the development progress.
So hiring temporary workers is the best option.
The game "Face" also has a lot of character actions.
For example, Lucy's parents were worried and crying about their daughter's condition, Dolores was taking care of her children, Lakan was eating, drinking and looking for monitors, etc., all of which required motion capture assistance.
So this item cannot be missing.
In the office, Meng Shu sat in front of the computer and began to make plans in his mind.
First of all, modifying the game is already inevitable because it needs to be put into VR.
After all, the VR experience is completely different from the experience across a computer screen.
The former is more immersive, and the game itself has an extremely strong sense of immersion. The combination of the two is almost equivalent to the feeling of a real person entering the game world.
Therefore, if it is not modified appropriately, the gain will outweigh the loss by scaring the players into tears.
Although crying when scared should bring him more fright value, what if the player stops playing?
Therefore, modifications must be included in the plan.
In addition, there is another problem, which is the problem of the protagonist model.
In the game "Face", the protagonist is a "three-no" person with no hands, no feet, no head and no body.
The player only controls the movement of the perspective camera, and the items are grabbed with the force, but there is no ripple in the water.
Then in VR, you can’t do this.
The player's head can rotate freely, and the body will inevitably be seen, so it is necessary to build a headless model for the protagonist.
The arm model and the mobility to adapt to the VR controller also need to be good.
These are things that the original game does not have, which is equivalent to the original VR version.
But fortunately, his program value is 60+8, so it is not difficult for him.
After finalizing the plan, he stood up and walked out, and began to give further explanations to his only employees.
...
...
A week later, Finance Sister Mei reported that a sum of 38 million yuan was deposited into the company's account.
After getting the news, Meng Shu laughed out loud in the office.
The money arrived 3 days later than expected, but it finally arrived.
Although Infinite Online Entertainment will definitely get this money back from sales, it undoubtedly helped him a lot in the early days.
He can recruit programmers to port the game to consoles!
You can also open MOD for "Dark Forest"!
You can also change your office location!
Buy another house by the way.
And buy a car.
In short, he suddenly had more funds at his disposal.
This way, you don’t have to touch the money from the sale of "Dark Forest".
After all, this money is strictly his personal property, not company funds.
Only the 38 million from Infinite Entertainment is considered company funds.
He didn't want to transfer his personal money to the company's account, so even though the 2.1 million sales of "Dark Forest" brought him nearly 100 million in wealth, the company was still a small company.
But for now, let’s get serious about developing the game.
But before that, I have to confess to my family.
...
...
At 7 o'clock that night, Meng Shu returned home by bus.
In his hand, he held the dishes he was going to make tonight.
After walking through several dark, dirty and garbage-strewn alleys, he arrived at the door of his old house.
He took out the key and opened the door.
But before Ke Ren entered, she heard Meng Yatou's voice ringing from the room.
"Brother! Is it you, brother! Are you back?"
Hearing this, Meng Shu shrugged and responded casually, then saw Meng Yatou limping out with a cane.
When he saw the dishes he was carrying, his eyes suddenly lit up.
She looked like this, and Meng Shu had black lines all over his head.
Shame on you!
"Brother, if you buy so much, what should we do tonight?"
"hot pot."
"Really!? Did you buy the hairy belly?"
"Of course I bought it, I know you like to eat it."
Meng Xiaoran suddenly cheered, and the corners of his eyes turned into crescent moons.
"Long live my brother! My brother still understands me and knows that my sister likes to eat hairy tripe!"
Meng Shu raised his lips slightly, carried the dishes into the kitchen, began to process the ingredients, and began to place them on the table one by one.
About an hour later, the second elder came back from working overtime.
With tired faces on their faces, they smelled the strong fragrance before they even entered the house.
When I opened the door, I saw that the table in the living room was full of dishes, both meat and vegetable, like a banquet.
There is also an iron pot in the middle, with red oil rolling inside, which makes people appetizing.
At this time, Meng Shu came out with a plate of chopped beef. Looking at the two elders at the door, he laughed.
"You're back? We're having hot pot tonight. We haven't had it at home for almost two or three years."
With that said, he put down the beef and invited Meng Yatou to come out to eat.
The two elders looked at each other, a little confused.
Why do you suddenly think of eating hot pot?
But Father Meng couldn't control that much anymore. After carrying water for a day outside in the wind and sun, his stomach was already empty.
At this time, he went directly to the toilet to wash his face, then came back and sat down to start cooking.
Meng's mother took off her sun protection headscarf, pulled out the chair, and looked at the meat and vegetables in front of her. She felt a little relieved, and she took it as a sign that her son had been paid after working.
I didn’t even think about whether my son would be paid or not after working for just over a month.
Meng Yatou didn't care. She picked up five pieces of beef with chopsticks and put them into the pot. Finally, she filled the bowl with condiments. She took one bite and breathed out because it was so hot.
"Eat slowly, no one will fight."
Meng Shu took out two bottles of cold beer and handed them to Father Meng in his surprised eyes.
Then they brought out pumpkin porridge and pickled vegetables and placed them in front of Meng Ma.
Finally, he gave Meng Yatou the orange juice, then pulled out a chair and sat next to her.
"Brother, please eat quickly! Eat quickly, or I will eat all the meat!"
Meng Yatou was eating and urging.
She didn't have the temperament that a beautiful female college student should have at all. Instead, she looked like a silly and wild girl, which made Meng Shu smile and stare at her for a while.
"Son, today is your salary day, and you're having hot pot."
Meng's mother ate the pumpkin porridge in small bites, and the happiness in her heart showed on her face, but what she showed was the traces of time, and there were cracked wounds on her hands.
"As long as it tastes good, I want to live up to my expectations and make a lot of money. You, a mother-in-law, ask me why I should do more."
Father Meng picked up the beer and blew on the bottle. After one sip, he exhaled the alcohol in a comfortable manner. Then he picked up the duck intestines in the bowl and ate them hastily.
"I'm happy. My son is working in the company now. He is living a better life than us and has better food than us. Can a mother be unhappy? There are three people in our family making money now. We will try to save some money this year and don't mess around. Hua, life will get better gradually."
Father Meng nodded when he heard this, feeling happy for his son to share the pressure at home.
"Old lady, let's eat, count the money, and then take a day off to take Ran girl to the hospital to check her legs and see how the situation is."
Meng Xiaoran, who was eating nonsense, suddenly trembled slightly after hearing this, and his expression became a little sad.
Mother's job is quite special and is basically non-stop.
Even if you take a break, it's a day off, and it depends on whether other people can take over the job. There is no such thing as a holiday.
Therefore, if you want to take a break, you usually need to take leave.
Now, because of my own fault, I am dragging down my family and my parents.
But I am still a student and I don’t know anything yet, so I can’t help my family share the burden...
This thought made Meng Xiaoran's eating movements become a little stiff.
"If you want it, it'll be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
Meng's mother put down the pumpkin porridge and began to cook vegetables, seemingly not noticing her daughter's expression.
But Meng Shu on the side watched the whole process. He shook his head, patted the head of the sister next to him, and gave her an encouraging smile despite her dissatisfied pout.
Then he looked at the second elder and cleared his throat.
"Dad, Mom, you have reached retirement age, so why not stop working and resign tomorrow."
As soon as he finished speaking, the second old man's hands that were cooking the vegetables suddenly stopped, and he looked over with doubtful eyes.
The little girl Meng next to her was also full of questions. She didn't understand what her brother meant by suddenly saying this.
Could it be...
Is my brother planning to support the family by himself...?
Under the puzzled looks of the three people, Meng Shu took out his mobile phone, clicked on the text message that the bank amount had been received, and handed it to Meng's mother.
Above is the sales volume of "Dark Forest" of about 2.1 million yuan. After excluding commissions and taxes, a total of about 76 million yuan was received.
Meng's mother took the phone and looked at it. She was stunned. Then she rubbed her eyes and looked carefully again. After confirming that she had read it correctly, she looked in disbelief.
"Son...this...is this...?"
Father Meng frowned and took the phone from Mother Meng's hand. When I saw it, I almost threw the bottle off the table!
"Baby!? Did you do something illegal!?"
Little girl Meng had a question mark on her face, wondering what her parents saw.
But what her brother said next made her eyes widen.
"I opened a company and made tens of millions. You don't have to work so hard in the future. Just resign and take a good rest at home to accompany Xiaoran."
