Chapter 152 No Need to Control Costs (2/17)
The big frame planning of "Onmyoji" is relatively clear. Although after countless iterations of card games, its gameplay has been very different from "My Name is MT", but the core is still the same, and it is still based on card extraction, training, and lineup matching. fun at the core.
In terms of production, the more difficult aspects are the picture quality, modeling and so on. Especially the model, the model accuracy of "Onmyoji" is very high, which is higher than "Warcraft" and "Wulin Heroes" previously developed by Chen Mo.
In addition to the model, background music, seiyuu dubbing, character original painting, etc. also require a lot of effort, but these are relatively easy to solve, mainly because of money.
In Chen Mo's plan, the design outline of "Onmyoji" is mainly divided into six aspects, namely Shikigami and Onmyoji system, plot exploration, fighting skills, social modules (Yin-Yang Liao, email, chat, etc.), Yuhun And store-related, other systems (summons, illustrations, etc.).
The most fundamental is the battle system related to Shikigami, Onmyoji, and Yusoul, followed by plot exploration. After these two pieces are made, the rest is easy to say.
The gameplay of the domestic card mobile game is actually relatively simple. The main difficulty lies in the card attributes, values and derivative gameplay, so the basic concept draft did not take too much time for Chen Mo, and it was quickly written.
Chen Mo sent the concept draft and Abe Seimei's line draft to Su Jinyu, and then went downstairs.
...
After receiving the concept draft sent by Chen Mo, Su Jinyu hadn't read it seriously, but Wen Lingwei and Qian Kun had already come over.
The two of them are basically the most interested in this game. As soon as they heard that the concept draft came out, they immediately gathered around.
Seeing Abe Seimei's line draft, everyone was stunned.
"What the hell is this, Abe Seimei? Isn't this the famous Onmyoji in the history of Nihong?" Zheng Hongxi was surprised.
Wen Lingwei said: "Yeah, the style of this dress is also Japanese style. The store manager wants to do this theme?"
Zheng Hongxi said with a bit of confusion: "Is it possible? Now the IPs of card games are getting better and better. The theme of Onmyoji is not very popular in China. It seems that the store manager plans to create his own IP again?"
Su Jinyu browsed the design concept draft: "The store manager wrote in the concept draft, saying that it is a high-quality game, and professional voice actors need to be dubbed in Japanese? Judging from the concept draft, this game is comparable to "My Name is MT". It's more complicated."
"I don't know if I can do it, I'm afraid I won't get used to the soil and water in China!"
Everyone was a little worried.
While discussing, Chen Mo went downstairs.
"Come to the conference room, I will briefly talk about the development plan of this game." Chen Mo walked towards the conference room as he spoke.
Wen Lingwei followed: "I also ask to sit in!"
Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, whatever you want."
After entering the conference room and sitting down, Jia Peng couldn't wait to ask: "Store manager, what game is this time? Is it a game similar to "My Name is MT"?"
Su Jinyu also asked: "Is it a game of pitting money?"
Chen Mo said, "Oh, this time it's a very healing game of conscience."
Su Jinyu breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, that's good."
Qian Kun looked bewildered, and he flipped through the concept draft again: "Huh? Are you sure about the store manager? I saw the game's summoning system and shikigami training system planning, but they are not cured at all."

Chen Mo said: "When I say healing, I mainly refer to the plot. In the background story of this game, this is an era when humans and ghosts coexist. Onmyoji must maintain the balance between the two worlds. And there are many moving people in it. The story of monsters and people, most monsters have a sad life experience, isn’t this plot a cure?”
Zheng Hongxi flipped through the concept draft: "Well... this story seems to be quite healing.
"
Qian Kun scratched his head, feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't find a reason to refute it for a while.
Chen Mo continued: "Actually, this game, you can understand it as an advanced version of "My Name is MT", the core is the same as "My Name is MT", it is acquired, cultivated, matched, and played with cards. The core game, but the representation is changed from cards to 3D models.”
Qian Kunlai was refreshed, and his eyes lit up: "So the store manager, it's still a money-hunting game, right?"
Chen Mo's mouth twitched slightly: "Well, you can understand that."
Zheng Hongxi said: "Then, I have a question for the store manager. Since it is a card game, the IP should be very important, right? There are card games on the market today, even if there is no big IP, you are embarrassed to say hello to people. We are doing this theme. , It might be pretty good in Nibong, but in China, there are still a few players who really care about the theme of Onmyoji, right?"
Chen Mo nodded: "Yes, currently it is a minority."
Wen Lingwei asked: "Then how do you plan to make this IP popular, the store manager? Or do you want to do anime like "My Name is MT"?"
Chen Mo shook his head: "Don't do animation, do nothing. This game itself has the ability to create its own IP."
Everyone was stunned: "Ah? Is it true?"
Chen Mo smiled: "Really. That's why we have to make the game quality to the top level. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com includes original paintings, models, scenes, music, lines, dubbing, etc., and must be able to crush the market. Any other card game of the game will do."
Su Jinyu frowned slightly: "Crush any other card game? This is a bit difficult."
Chen Mo shook his head: "It's not high, it's not high at all, in the final analysis, it's a question of money. So when you're looking for an outsourcing company, Goldfish, go directly to the highest-spec, 20,000 yuan for an original painting, it doesn't matter, this time In terms of art and music, we don’t care about the cost. In addition to dubbing, we need to find someone to contact the well-known voice actors of Nihong. If the money is more, it must be worthy to satisfy us.”
Everyone was stunned, 20,000 yuan for an original painting? Looking for a famous voice actor?
The original painting of "My Name is MT" was only 2,000 yuan a piece, and the price was directly increased tenfold, which is too much money! Coupled with the model and action, the cost of this shikigami can break through the sky, and it is more expensive than the previous model of "Warcraft"!
Although Chen Mo is rich now, it still surprises everyone that he is willing to burn so much money.
Qian Kun said hesitantly: "Store manager, if you really don't care about the cost, then the research and development cost will be in the tens of millions..."
Chen Mo nodded: "Yeah, what's wrong? Is there a lot of tens of millions? The CG of "Warcraft" cost more than 30 million."
Jia Peng scratched his head: "Of course it can't be compared to "Warcraft", but this is a mobile game..."
Chen Mo said: "Don't worry, its profitability will not be worse than "Warcraft". Let's put it this way, the research and development costs do not need to be controlled, especially the art and music resources related to the quality of the game, all must be the best, no need Worry about money."
Wen Lingwei was amazed: "My God, the store manager is so generous! I'm really not used to it!"
