Almighty Game Designer Chapter 167: Very bloated


The interview lasted about 2 hours, and the routines that Han Lu carefully prepared were all resolved by Chen Mo. Not only that, Han Lu felt that she was in danger of being given the routine by Chen Mo instead.

In the end, Han Lu really had nothing to ask, and got up to leave.

"I really trouble you today."

Han Lu was also a little puzzled. Although she didn't ask anything, what's the matter of this natural feeling?

Chen Mo stood up and said: "You are welcome, I hope you can write this interview well so that the players can realize my love for them."

Han Lu: "...bye."

Han Lu left Chen Mo's experience store and probably took a look at what she wrote down in shorthand.

Well, it looks like a lot of content, but in fact there is nothing...

However, this should be considered reasonable, Han Lu suddenly found that she seemed very open-minded.

……

Three days later, the manuscript came out.

This manuscript is basically a faithful account of what Chen Mo said in the interview. There is no artistic beautification and no malicious ugliness. What Chen Mo said and Han Lu wrote.

It's not that Han Lu doesn't want to beautify, it can't beautify!

However, to Han Lu’s surprise, the editor-in-chief was quite satisfied with this manuscript. Soon, this manuscript was published on the game channel of Tianji.com with the title: "Interview with "Onmyoji" creator Chen Mo: Earn Money is just incidental."

There is a paragraph written like this.

"When the author asked, as the most profitable mobile game designer in China, does he have a unique secret? Chen Mo replied this way: In fact, making games is not just for making money, making money is just a casual thing. The game is made to make the players feel happy, to create value for the society, for the art, and often lose money."

After the publication of this article, it really caused crazy complaints from players, and it was even forwarded to major forums and websites, and it was reprinted by many game media.

"Here again! This cheating editor and Chen Mo raped my IQ again!"

"Damn! If I believe it, I'll be crazy!"

""Onmyoji" is more fair? Are you afraid that you are teasing me?"

"Upstairs, Chen Mo said nothing wrong. Anyway, it depends on luck. It's fair 2333"

"Fuck, 18-month year-end award? Chen Mo is really rich, who knows the recruitment call of Thunder Mutual Entertainment? I'm going to sweep Chen Mo!"

"Isn't the one upstairs refuting the rumors, it's a quarterly award."

"Is so rich, my mentality exploded! How can this be done!"

"Chen Mo returned my hard-earned money!!"

"Here again, use salary to create happiness! I wanted to say a long time ago, this stuff is still a scam, don't think he made "Warcraft" and "The Legend of the Knight" is very conscientious, and he is a mobile game The truth is revealed!"

"Yes, I will only play Chen Mo's PC game in the future, and boycott Chen Mo's mobile game!"

"The two of you upstairs can have a snack, aren't you forcing Chen Mo to transplant the operating model of his hand tour to the PC game?"

"Huh? Not so much, right?"

"Stop talking about it, how can it be done if you really transplant it!"

"Damn, making money is just a casual thing? By the way, earning 200 million a month? I take it, why does this person feel uncomfortable without pretending to be forced?"

"Make money by the way, Serente?"

"Why did he lose, we made? Fuck, I just laughed."

"The king of the game industry is born!"

……

Other designers were also dumbfounded by this interview.

"What is it? Is this Chen Mo so inflated?"

"What does it mean to sincerely persuade everyone that the card mobile game market is so big that it can't squeeze others?"

"Mom, what a big tone!"

"I really thought "Onmyoji" covered the sky with one hand, and if you have money, you can do whatever you want?"

"I am not convinced, I will develop another card mobile game!"

"Don't, calm down, "Onmyoji" is with this momentum now, whoever hits and die!"

"I am so angry! This Chen Mo is too jumpy, can you come to punish him personally!!"

"Who can impose sanctions, even "Devil Slayer 2" has not said anything!"

……

The entire mobile game circle was disturbed by "Onmyoji", and Chen Mo was very happy.

In short, enjoy the feeling of lying down and making money.

But what makes him more troublesome is that the experience store has become more and more lively recently. Especially on the first floor, many "Onmyoji" players deliberately ran from far away to worship Kagura and make a wish SSR, which made the experience shop often full.

Furthermore, Su Jinyu is working as an assistant and a front desk, so she is really too busy.

Previously, Chen Mo's idea was to maintain a small team to develop small and medium-sized games and accumulate funds. Because the communication efficiency of small teams is higher, and the exercise effect for these three assistants is also better.

But with the hot sales of "Warcraft" and the fire of "Onmyoji", Chen Mo feels more and more the urgency of increasing manpower and improving the working environment.

After all, it is a bit cheating for Zheng Hongxi and Qian Kun to work in an environment surrounded by players every day.

Moreover, after the explosive expansion of Onmyoji, Chen Mo already has a lot of money.

So far, the cumulative sales of "Warcraft" has reached 5.7 million, and the total income brought to Chen Mo is about 630 million. The monthly income of "Onmyoji" is 260 million ~ IndoMTL.com~ These two pieces have basically become Chen The bulk of Mo's income.

As for "The Legend of the Knight" and the previous games, the money earned is drizzle, and Chen Mo basically doesn't care much anymore.

Among these games, the cost of developing "Warcraft" is the highest. With the addition of a full set of CG, the cost is about 80 million. The cost of "Onmyoji" is much lower, less than 20 million. , After deducting the cost of publicity and promotion of these games, Chen Mo now has about 700 million yuan.

Of course, the money here is mainly made by "Warcraft". The development of "Warcraft" is not bad at present. Because of the continuous updates of various RPG maps, there is no obvious decline in subsequent sales. Of course , And surely sales will slowly decline in the future.

After all, this is an RTS game, with fewer players, and Thunder Mutual Entertainment's influence overseas is limited. The promotion simply cannot reach the level of the previous Blizzard, so the income is lower than its quality.

Fortunately, after the sales of "Warcraft" declined, "Onmyoji" could explode. Chen Mo estimated that the monthly sales of Onmyoji would be even higher next month, and hopefully reach the level of 500 or 600 million.

Chen Mo now has a lot of funds on hand. The average R&D funds for 3A masterpieces on PC are about 40 million U.S. dollars. In terms of money alone, Chen Mo has already started.

As for VR games, the development cost of VR games is basically 10 times that of PCs. If you want to port 3A masterpieces to the VR platform, the cost will start at about 200 million US dollars. This is still a big risk for Chen Mo.

Up to now, Chen Mo has ample funds and the capabilities of the three assistants are more comprehensive. It is time to consider further expansion.
