Chapter 515 President Pei and Mr. Ruan's Implicit Friendship
At the same time, Tenda Games.
Min Jingchao browsed the forums as usual, whoring players' ideas for nothing.
It has to be said that the wisdom of the players is infinite.
For example, the idea of the traveler Bao Xu, Min Jingchao took a look at it and thought it was great. The hero mechanism is rich and the image is appropriate. The most important thing is that it fits Bao Xu's personality very well.
So it was accepted on the spot.
But good ideas like this don't come along very often.
After all, there are only a few players who are proficient in game mechanics and design, and most of the ideas have more or less problems.
Min Jingchao's recent daily work is to sift through the massive amount of ideas provided by players, find suitable ones, hand them over to the design team for improvement, and then enter the production process.
During the selection process, Min Jingchao also had some unspoken rules.
Designers in the game department do not participate in this event.
Like Min Jingchao himself designed several heroes, but he doesn't take the benefits. Because Boss Pei has already paid enough salary for his work, and will also give out bonuses based on the game's reputation, investment and other factors, he feels that there is no reason to make second money.
I'm sorry to compete with players for 5% of the income.
Secondly, when choosing heroes, Min Jingchao will try to choose different creators.
Min Jingchao would only consider adopting two hero proposals from the same designer unless a certain hero is significantly better than the others and the creativity must be utilized.
Because this activity itself is for all people to participate in, the total number of GOG heroes is limited, and there are only so many rewards. If too many rewards are taken by the same account, the motivation of other people to participate will be greatly weakened, which is not conducive to maintaining a healthy ecology of the entire community.
Of course, it is also necessary to comprehensively consider whether the hero mechanism fits with the game mechanism, whether the hero’s characteristics are obvious, whether it overlaps with the existing hero’s positioning, whether it conflicts, and other factors.
Min Jingchao was swiping, and suddenly saw that the like data of a post seemed to be pretty good.
He subconsciously clicked in and found that it was a design sticker of a pure hero mechanism.
The first skill of this hero is a short-range damage skill. After using it three times, the enemy can be knocked into the air. The second skill is...
"Huh? This game mechanism looks very interesting."
Min Jingchao thought about it carefully, and felt that the hero's positioning is very clear, and the mechanism itself is also good for entertainment. As long as it is paired with a suitable packaging, it should be quite popular.
But the question is, what packaging to give it?
If this enthusiastic player revealed a little bit about the general story background of this hero, then at least there is a general direction, but now there is no entry point except that he is a hero who is more of a fighter and more of an assassin.
Min Jingchao clicked on the player's profile, wanting to find some inspiration.
After all, the idea of this hero comes from this player, and it would be even better if the image design can be a little bit related to this player.
"Huh? Have all the games of Tenda? This is still a hardcore player of Tenda games."
"Huh? I bought "Lonely Desert Highway" so early? This is a super hardcore player."
"..."
"Isn't this the President Pei himself?!"
Min Jingchao didn't know if he didn't check, but he was shocked when he checked, it turned out to be Mr. Pei's own account!
He confirmed again and again, that's right, it's Boss Pei!
But then, Min Jingchao fell into confusion.
Boss Pei wants to be a new hero, so just tell me and it's over?
Why is it still posting on the forum, so much trouble?
If the players don't know the goods and don't like it, isn't this design blind?
Could it be that Mr. Pei is very confident in his design, and feels that even if it is mixed in the many plans of players, it will definitely stand out?
Well, judging from the results, it is like this.
But it seems that this reason alone is not sufficient.
Min Jingchao began to diverge her thinking again. After all, "thinking more" is an essential quality for every Tengda employee.
Why didn't this hero design a specific image?
Mr. Pei can't design a specific image?
Certainly not!
That's what Boss Pei did on purpose.
Min Jingchao thought over and over again, and finally summed up Mr. Pei's two intentions for doing so.
First, Mr. Pei left the hero's packaging empty, as if to test the ability of the GOG R&D team, allowing the R&D team to speculate on their own intentions and complete the hero's appearance and story background.
Second, in view of the fierce competition between GOG and ioi, the palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh, Mr. Pei doesn't want to be biased. That's why he didn't give clear instructions, but used this obscure method.
In other words, Mr. Pei didn't want others to know that he participated in the design of GOG, but just secretly helped.
This made Min Jingchao feel warm in his heart. Sure enough, the GOG project is Mr. Pei's own son!
As for the 5% income, it is obviously impossible for Mr. Pei to appreciate it. Mr. Pei should be more concerned about the title of [Designer of XXX].
"So, we should hide the fact that this hero was designed by Mr. Pei, and consider it completely according to the design of an ordinary player."
"Then the next question is, what kind of packaging should we make for this hero?"
"There is already a hero based on Mr. Pei, so this hero obviously needs to be designed based on other people."
"Who is it based on?"
"Boss Pei must have thought about it, but he's just too embarrassed to write it out."
Min Jingchao thought carefully and found that this hero seemed to be able to cooperate well with Modeste.
Because Modiste's second skill is a road closure + knockback effect, and the knockback itself is actually a state of floating + displacement. In theory, it should be possible to receive this new hero's ultimate move.
That is to say, Modeste directly goes around and uses the second skill to block the road + repel the enemy's key heroes, the new hero takes over, and then Modeste activates the max to absorb the damage, and the new hero cooperates with him to start crazy output.
Well, a perfect match!
But who is Mr. Pei's perfect partner in reality?
Obviously it's Ruan Guangjian, big brother Ruan!
Moreover, the hero's skills are in line with the characteristics of Ruan Guangjian.
The abstract image of the artist should be light and elegant. At the same time, although Ruan Guangjian looks like an ordinary person on the outside, he has been influenced by art all the year round, and his every move has the characteristics of an ancient literati.
Thinking of this, Min Jingchao had an idea.
Hero name: Ruan, the Scholar of the Wind.
Ruan was a calligrapher and painter in ancient China, and his weapon was an oversized brush.
The first skill is to use a brush to write wild grass. After three times, you can use the wild grass to call out a gust of wind, causing a knock-up effect on the enemies on the path.
The second skill is to quickly draw a landscape painting of clouds and mist in front of you, blocking flying skills.
The third skill is walking against the wind, which can quickly shuttle between enemies.
The ultimate skill is Illusion, which casts Illusion on the enemy in the knock-up state. At the same time, Ruan Yufeng walks directly to the target from thousands of miles away, completely suppressing the target and causing damage.
After Min Jingchao matched the hero's packaging and skills, he carefully checked it again, and found that it was a strange fit.
"Could it be that this hero was originally tailor-made for Mr. Ruan?"
"It's just that Mr. Pei is embarrassed to be so obvious?"
"Well, this possibility is very high. After all, in order to take care of Mr. Ruan's studio, Mr. Pei specially increased the money given to the outsourcing company, just to allow Mr. Ruan to get through as soon as possible after he came to Jingzhou. Get over it."
"Ah, is the friendship between big brothers always so reserved?"
Min Jingchao couldn't help but imagine the scene where two heroes, Modeste and Ruan, would fight side by side in the Canyon of the Gods in the future.
Just thinking about it makes my blood boil!
Min Jingchao immediately began to sort out the request form for the hero Ruan's original painting, and prepared to send it to Ruan Guangjian as soon as possible.
Since it is Big Brother Ruan's hero, the appearance of this hero is of course designed by Big Brother Ruan himself.
After the traveler Bao Xu goes online, the next hero will be the poet of the wind, Ruan!
Min Jingchao's work efficiency is very high. In less than two hours, a hero demand form for the Mok of the Wind was ready.
He immediately sent the demand form to Ruan Guangjian.
...
In the halo studio, Ruan Guangjian continued to be busy while drinking coffee.
Suddenly, the chat software icon in the lower right corner of the computer flickered, and a window popped up to accept the file: Mok of the Wind·Ruan-Hero Requirement Form.xlsx.
"Um?"
Ruan Guangjian couldn't help being taken aback, the hero design came out so quickly.
Last Thursday or last Friday, the needs of the traveler Bao Xu just started to be on the agenda, and there are new heroes so soon?
Ruan Guangjian received the demand form, opened it, and couldn't help being stunned.
Surnamed Ruan, I also like calligraphy and painting...
He is a little suspicious that this hero is based on himself, but he also feels that this kind of thinking seems a bit too narcissistic.
Just then, Min Jingchao sent a message.
"Boss Ruan, that's right, this is the hero Mr. Pei designed based on you, and I added a little more detail."
"However, Boss Pei seems to be relatively low-key. He doesn't want others to know that this is his handwriting, so don't make it too obvious, just be clear in your heart."
Ruan Guangjian couldn't help being taken aback. When I went to buy coffee just now, I met Mr. Pei.
In other words, President Pei had already designed a hero based on me before that?
But when touching Yuyu Internet Cafe, Mr. Pei had no intention of mentioning it at all...
Well, it really fits Mr. Pei's reserved character.
The last time Halo Studio moved to Jingzhou, Mr. Pei was cold outside and hot inside. He didn't say anything, but actually quietly raised the price of outsourcing to help Halo Studio tide over the difficulties.
This time it was more subtle, quietly making an exclusive hero for me in the game.
The corner of Ruan Guangjian's mouth couldn't help showing a smile, and he replied: "Don't worry, the original painting will definitely be designed very handsomely!"
Min Jingchao added: "Then, the first skin is a linkage skin with Modeste, and the story background of the two heroes is also set as best friends, is that okay?"
Ruan Guangjian smiled knowingly: "Of course, I can wish for it."
