Got kicked out.
Although Shen Miaomiao was a little surprised by this result, she did not show too much annoyance.
After all, as of now in this project, Lao Gu is a mercenary who went out to make money and came back with 300,000 dollars.
The Golden Wind is definitely not a loss.
The only thing that worried her was whether Lao Gu would be sad.
Because it can be seen from Lao Gu's previous status that he is very optimistic about this IP.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have accepted the job eagerly and rushed to Neon to personally participate in the leading work.
Now, the project has been unilaterally canceled by Comella.
This undoubtedly cut off all Lao Gu's ideas for this IP.
So, after Gu Sheng informed her to be prepared, Silent Hill would most likely be cancelled.
Shen Miaomiao's first reaction was to ask Gu Sheng what he thought of this sudden situation.
What can Gu Sheng think!
Fake Comera!
really!
Silent Hill PT will bring ominousness!
Reminiscing about his past life, Hideo Kojima broke up with Konami's senior management and left K Club during the production of this work.
Now, he himself has followed Brother Dao's old path again. Although the process is slightly different, the result is still the same.
In fact, the situation he encountered was even more outrageous than Hideo Kojima!
Due to Comella's temporary change of heart!
The Silent Hill IP is, in all likelihood, completely finished.
After all, this man has repeatedly failed in the horror game genre and has suffered a total loss.
Camera can't do Silent Hill well.
But the copyright is still in the hands of Comella.
This IP is considered useless.
It seems that in this world, Silent Hill has no destiny to become a classic.
Gu Sheng felt very sorry.
But it's just a pity.
after all!
He had been careful from the beginning and never mentioned the concept and design of the main game of Silent Hill to anyone in Camera!
so!
For Comella, all he has left is a thirty-minute trial version worth two million!
On average, it costs more than 60,000 yuan per minute!
It can be called a humanoid self-propelled money printing machine!
Of course, due to the huge success of PT, it has temporarily ignited the popularity of the Silent Hill IP, allowing the descendants of Comora to enjoy the benefits.
After going back and forth, the two sides seemed to be even.
No one gains, no one loses.
but!
Is this really the case?
Don't forget it!
first!
Although Silent Hill PT made this long-dusted IP popular in Comella's hands, it also made Gu Sheng successful!
With the peak psychological horror creation in this demo version, Gu Sheng successfully won the title of the savior of horror games and the father of psychological horror!
It was even directly called the "King of Horror Games" by many domestic and foreign media players!
This kind of recognition is even more important than many awards in the gaming industry!
Because this is the recognition of the market!
Secondly!
Yuki suddenly had an idea and suggested "supplementing the identity of the protagonist"!
With Yuki's suggestion, Gu Sheng made slight changes to the ending of Silent Hill PT, giving a conclusion to the confusing identity of the protagonist in the previous life!
A fearless reporter who dares to explore the truth—Miles Upshur—is born!
And Miles will become Gu Sheng's key to opening up the horror game universe!
This key has nothing to do with the Silent Hill IP!
This is the super foreshadowing that Gu Sheng has specially laid for himself and the Golden Wind!
As for the end——
Gu Sheng laughed and said to Yuki on the phone:
"So Yuki, is your call today just to tell us that Comora will develop Silent Hill alone?"
And this time!
Yuki has been shocked beyond measure by Gu Sheng's preparedness and strategizing!
This man is such a thief!
Although he is usually amiable, he is very affectionate to everyone when he is in neon, showing his sincerity and sincerity.
But in fact, this guy has already taken precautions, and his sense of smell is extremely sharp!
Outrageous.
Yuki was shocked.
Director Gu is obviously just a person of the same age as her, but his level of cunning is far beyond that of a person of this age, and he even looks a bit like a seasoned person.
"Ah I……"
Yuki felt as if he had provided false information, confused:
"I just...have nothing else to do."
"Really gone?"
Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows:
"Think about it again? For example, after leaking the news to me... where should you go to do things?"
"Ah...ah! Yes, yes!"
After Gu Sheng reminded her, Yuki finally reacted and slapped her forehead:
"There is another thing, that is..."
Yuki suddenly found it difficult to speak.
The current situation made her feel like she was negotiating terms with Golden Wind, as if her purpose was impure.
But in fact, if she really wanted to negotiate terms, there was no need to reveal the news in such a hurry.
After all, Yuki is still young and thin-skinned.
Unlike Sato, who immediately took over the conversation and said:
"Also, in terms of salary, how much can Director Gu offer us?"
As the saying goes, if a person is just smart, he will probably not be particularly happy because he has sensitive feelings and many worries.
And if a person is just shameless, then he will probably not live a particularly comfortable life, because his unmeasured behavior will make him miss many good opportunities.
And Soki Sato.
A smart and shameless person.
Whether it's invincible or not is a matter of debate.
At least, he can make himself comfortable and happy.
The appearance of Sato's voice undoubtedly gave Gu Sheng an extra surprise!
"so……"
Gu Sheng said cheerfully:
"Is there a third person listening to this call?"
Sato knew that Director Gu was referring to Okura Kazu.
But it's a pity.
Sato said with some regret: "Okura's father has always been in poor health, and he is the only son in the family, so..."
"It's okay, it's okay, it's understandable, there will be opportunities in the future,"
Gu Sheng was not too disappointed and expressed his understanding:
"Then now - let's ask our Mr. Shen to discuss the salary issue with you two personally!"
As he spoke, Gu Sheng looked at Shen Miaomiao with a cunning light flashing in his eyes.
good!
Once on the throne! Fire borrows the power of wind and creates a reputation in one fell swoop!
Erliu foreshadowing! Borrow the chicken to lay the egg and create a personal tag key!
Dig the core three times! Wagner mode is activated, the enemy is at Honnoji Temple!
deficit? It is impossible to lose money!
Not only did he not lose money, Gu Sheng almost made a fortune!
Say it!
Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows at Little Nezha: Come on, it's your turn, you have the final say on how to pay.
Shen Miaomiao gave a questioning look: How much do you think is appropriate?
Gu Sheng made a four with his left hand and a three with his right hand.
Men on the left and women on the right.
The main planner Sato is 400,000, and the main beauty Yuki is 300,000.
This was the salary of the two people that he learned about when he was at Neon.
As far as salary in the gaming industry is concerned, the salary in China is about 10%-15% lower than that in Neon.
Therefore, compared with domestic tourism practitioners of the same level, their salaries are higher.
But it's not much higher.
After all, Sato is only the chief planner of a studio under Comella, and Yuki has only been employed for a short time.
After prompting, Gu Sheng also smiled slightly, picked up the paper cup and made a small plum toast gesture, indicating that his job of poaching people has been completed, and he will watch your performance next.
After receiving Lao Gu's signal, Shen Miaomiao also made an OK gesture to show that she understood.
He said: "Then let's simply double it first, Mr. Sato will be 800,000, and Yuki will be 600,000."
puff--! ! !
Gu Sheng just drank the water!
I almost choked myself to death!
He looked at Little Nezha with wide eyes, full of confusion and shock!
How many? !
How much do you charge them? !
Eight hundred thousand and six hundred thousand? !
My annual salary is only five hundred thousand!
At the same time, Sato on the other end of the phone was also trembling!
"Ah... this uh... me um?"
Sato was so numb that he even thought he heard it wrong!
Originally, he thought that as a manufacturer still in development, Golden Wind would definitely not be able to compete with established manufacturers like Comella in terms of salary.
And he is also prepared to take a salary cut.
After all, what he mainly values is the future development potential of this company under Gu Sheng's leadership.
result!
Not only did the salary not drop, but it actually doubled? !
I can’t figure it out! I really can’t figure it out!
"This...this...I..."
Sato didn't know what to say for a moment.
Still opposite, Yuki smiled and answered the phone: "Then we will go find you in two days, my dear."
"Well, okay," Shen Miaomiao chuckled: "I will pick you up then."
Bada.
The phone hangs up.
Yuki stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Sato, who looked dull: "Sato-senpai? What are you thinking about?"
"Ah? Ah!"
Only then did Sato react and blinked his confused eyes:
"I'm thinking...is this Mr. Shen rejecting us? Reminding us in this tactful way?"
Yuki chuckled:
"Of course not. Didn't she make it clear on the phone?"
"But that doesn't make sense?"
Sato was puzzled!
"And...and you're not shocked?"
"Me, hi, I'm just fine,"
In response, Yuki just shrugged and smiled:
"Because this really seems like something Miaomiao can do."
Sato was puzzled: "You mean this is the way Golden Wind behaves?"
"No," Yuki shook her head: "I mean her father is one of the largest chaebols in China."
Sato:……
…
"no?!"
at the same time!
In the president's office!
Gu Sheng wiped his mouth and looked at Shen Miaomiao with suspicious eyes:
"Are you really going to come right out of your mouth? One is 800,000 and the other is 600,000? I only have 500,000!"
Seeing Gu Sheng's look like this, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help laughing and laughed: "What? Didn't you poach this person? Are you jealous?"
"This is not a jealous thing,"
Gu Sheng raised his hand and said:
"Your salary is far beyond the level of our company now. I don't care, but what will everyone think if they know it?"
Gu Sheng wanted to say that such treatment was not conducive to company unity.
However, Shen Miaomiao shrugged: "Who said you are beyond the level of our company? They will surpass you. I am preparing to increase your annual salary from tomorrow."
Gu Sheng:?
"I don't have a share?" Gu Sheng tilted his head and asked.
Shen Miaomiao spread her hands and looked innocent: "You don't care."
"OK! OK! OK!"
Gu Sheng laughed loudly and made obvious gestures, stood up and was about to walk out the door:
"Well, I just heard that Xun Teng's side seems to be in a bad situation recently. I think they need me more. Based on my current worth, I don't dare to say more. There shouldn't be any problem if I go up to 100. Let's go. ! Surrender to the enemy!"
"Hey, hey! Stop! You are joking, brother!"
Upon seeing this, Shen Miaomiao jumped up from her seat and grabbed Gu Sheng's arm:
"Don't be impulsive. Don't be impulsive. If you have anything to say, it's easy to discuss. It's easy to discuss..."
"snort!"
Gu Sheng waved his hand:
"A man was born between heaven and earth, how can he live in a state of depression for a long time?"
"1500000!"
Seeing that she couldn't hold Gu Sheng back, Shen Miaomiao opened her mouth and unleashed her killer move!
Gu Sheng stopped in his tracks and coughed lightly: "What the public said is really enlightening, but...!"
Shen Miaomiao stopped laughing and interrupted:
“Add another vice president position!”
hiss!
Gu Sheng couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, turned around immediately, faced Shen Miaomiao and bowed his hands!
"For half of his life, Gu Piaoling only regrets that he has never met his master! If you don't give up, I'm willing to ride on the front and back of the horse!"
Shen Miaomiao giggled and the flower branches trembled!
good!
Nowadays, Golden Wind is officially on the right track. With its two multiplayer online projects, APEX and PUBG, as well as the sales of a number of independent games, its profits are stable and its financial resources are getting stronger.
Shen Miaomiao felt that it was time to increase the wages of the comrades in the company.
After all, raising wages means raising costs.
And the cost increase will definitely be beneficial to her in the long run!
If we say that when they were just starting out and produced "Phobia" with a cost of 2 million, she had 10 million to invest, was it a sure loss?
If we say that when they made their first appearance in Asia and produced "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" with a cost of 50 million, she had 500 million to invest, was it a sure loss?
For another example, when they first became an escort developer and produced "Titanfall" with a cost of 170 million, she had 1.7 billion to invest. Was it a guaranteed loss?
You must know that the growth rate and breadth of the market are limited.
So theoretically, as long as her investment is large enough, her profits cannot catch up with her losses.
Let’s take an extreme example.
Suppose I now spend 5 billion to invest in a game, priced at 500 yuan, exclusive to Yiyu x2, and the system gives the longest basic rebate settlement time, which lasts for one month.
You sell it.
Even if you, the King of Heaven, come here, it will not be able to recover its original value!
Because the current global sales of Yiyu x2 are only a few million units!
To make money back, the game needs to sell at least 10 million copies!
so!
Raising wages and raising costs is definitely a road to loss!
If you can't lose money!
It means that the cost investment is not enough!
A salary increase is imperative!
Originally, Shen Miaomiao was still thinking of a reason to mention this matter.
And now!
Coincidentally, Comella betrayed his trust, and Lao Gu took out his salary to instigate rebellion against the two generals!
It's a good time!
This adjustment!
The first is to increase future project budgets and pave the way for losing money!
The second is to win people's hearts and make the two "surrendering generals" who came all the way from Neon give up!
The third step is to organize the company internally, enhance cohesion, and prepare for the sprint to enter the [Billion Club]!
Kill three birds with one stone!
Wonderful joy! Gu Sheng made a profit! Yuki Sato is overjoyed! The golden wind joins forces to sprint! Everyone is very satisfied! Peace of mind!
Then the question comes——
Who is anxious?
