Chapter 784: Preparing for the Design Competition

The design competition held by Chen Mo is held twice a year, in March after the year and in July of the graduation season.

The design competition in July of the graduation season is open to all current students, and all students with a university degree or above can sign up to participate.

The design competition in March after the year is mainly for designers in the industry, whether they are independent designers or designers of other companies, they can sign up to participate.

The list of participants will be subject to a preliminary review. After screening out those who do not meet the requirements, other participants will go through the preliminary round, semi-finals and finals, and finally select the best designers.

The preliminary rounds are distributed in more than 20 major cities across the country, and the semi-finals and finals are in the imperial capital. For this year's competition, Chen Mo is considering renting a venue in the Imperial Capital. After the new headquarters is completed next year, he can go to the new headquarters to hold it.

These two times have also been considered. In July, graduates have just graduated and are still looking for jobs. In March, there will be a routine wave of departures in the IT industry, and many capable designers will choose Find another way out during this time.

Moreover, the staggering of the two times also ensures the fairness of the competition, and the graduates will not mix with senior designers in the industry.

Different from previous competitions, designers will only know the specific topic of the competition when they arrive at the scene, write design drafts and make them on the spot. If it is some super-large game, then you can just write a more detailed design concept draft. If the judges are interested in the concept draft, you can continue to make it later.

When it comes to the semi-finals and finals, the designers will design the game in the official venue, which may last for a week or even a month, which is enough time for them to develop medium-sized or even large-scale games.

The judges of these design competitions are some senior independent designers on the Thunder game platform, such as Li Feng, Zhou Haibin, Qiu Hengyang and so on.

These designers have cooperated with Chen Mo on the Thunder game platform for a long time, and have their own representative works, and are very happy to participate in this game design competition. On the one hand, together with Chen Mo, he made some contributions to the development of the entire game industry, and on the other hand, he also showed his face to the public. After all, this game design competition may be broadcast live at that time. Many players, game enthusiasts and People in the industry will see it.

... madam, command the general not to run away

The specific rules of the competition have to be formulated in detail, but Chen Mo's idea is very clear, that is, to make Thunder Interactive Entertainment's game design competition the largest, fairest, most professional, and most promising design competition in China.

He hopes that this design competition can bring outstanding graduates who want to enter the game industry,

As well as the outstanding independent designers in the industry, this design competition can ignite people's enthusiasm for the game industry, and it can also exist as a large-scale recruitment fair for Lei Ting Mutual Entertainment.

As for the rewards of the competition, it is naturally the most generous.

In addition to the regular bonuses and prizes, Chen Mo will look at all the finalists' works, and decide who to send invitations to.

Of course, the competition has many senior designers as judges. They have their own judgments on the works, and the competition will also have corresponding rules. And Chen Mo's preferences are independent of all the judges. Even if a designer is disliked by all the judges, as long as Chen Mo thinks it's OK, it's fine.

These designers who are favored by Chen Mo can choose independently, or join Leiting Interactive Entertainment as employees, or become independent game designers and cooperate with Leiting game platform.

These two options have their own advantages and disadvantages. As an independent designer, the income will be very unstable, but you can design games independently. Thunder game platform will have a special recommendation mechanism for these people, which can let more players know about these designers and them. s work.

Whether it is an employee of Leiting Interactive Entertainment or an independent game designer recognized by Chen Mo on Leiting's game platform, they can all get a place in Leiting Interactive Entertainment's new headquarters.

This also paved the way for Chen Mo's future planning.

So far, Chen Mo's team has been maintained at a relatively small scale. When he makes games, he will also choose the current best choice according to the team's situation.

However, future games will inevitably develop to a larger scale.

Considering the size of the office area of ​​the new headquarters, the existing Leiting Interactive Entertainment employees may not even be able to fill one-tenth of the first floor, and the rest is room for expansion.

In the future, Chen Mo may develop an incomparably huge world, or even a diverse collection of many worlds. Nirvana Rebirth: Evil King Ao Concubine

For example, in some networks, players can travel freely in many worlds, each world has different tasks and mysteries, and there is a unified will in all the worlds...

Obviously, no matter how complicated and huge the game is, it is designed by the designer little by little, and it is produced by the entire R&D team little by little, and there is no possibility of opportunism.

If you want to develop this kind of game, Chen Mo can't complete all the worlds by himself. This requires an extremely large R&D team to be responsible for each part in order to really do it well.

Therefore, Chen Mo is recruiting these excellent designers to prepare for the future. If you want to design this kind of "unlimited flow" game world, then these excellent designers can be responsible for a world, Chen Mo only needs to check and screen them one by one.

Even if these large-scale games are not produced in a short period of time, these designers can develop their own works independently, without delay anyway.

...

This is why, at present, only Chen Mo in China has the qualifications to hold such a large-scale game design competition.

Because of the appeal.

At present, none of the domestic designers can reach Chen Mo's appeal.

Chen Mo has successful works in various game fields. He has made competitive games that are popular all over the world, and he has also made high-quality VR games, and has won the best of the year. For other designers, Chen Mo is the strongest designer in China. At the same time, Lei Ting Interactive Entertainment has sufficient funds and strong channels, and has a large number of players. The appeal is naturally self-evident.

After roughly finalizing the rules of the game design competition, it is almost time to warm up.

It will not be held in March after the year, because the rules of the competition for designers in the industry are more complicated and there is not enough preparation time.

Thunder Interactive Entertainment's first game design competition is scheduled for July next year, but before that, we can release the wind in advance, so that those graduates who are interested in participating can prepare in advance, and regard this game design competition as graduation. One of the choices in life.
