This game is awesome

There was no one in the studio these days. Gu Qingshi almost treated the studio as her own home, so she habitually lived naked.

If she were to start working officially, she would never do such a thing.

It's so embarrassing, just thinking about it, the employees' workplace is right next to it, and the JK beautiful girl boss is stripping naked in the office!

What kind of plot is this?

After putting on his pants, Gu Qingshi sat on the chair and turned off the game. Then he opened his email and sent the emailed resume to Li Xiaomeng for her to take a look.

During this period of time, many people have sent their resumes to Fanxing after seeing the salary, but Gu Qingshi is not very satisfied with these resumes.

The biggest problem is still: lack of experience.

Although many of the people who submitted their resumes are veterans in the development industry and have considerable development experience, they have little exposure to FPS games.

And those who have participated in the development and operation of large-scale FPS are even rarer. Fortunately, God will not let down those who work hard.

Finally, FPS developers were attracted by Fanxing's high salary.

Gu Qingshi had even played their games.

"The Last Act".

A game that is very similar to CF in positioning, but the gameplay is quite simple, there is only team deathmatch, with five people on each side, they just take up guns and shoot, fighting to the death.

One good thing about "Last Action" is that it adds some tactical props into the game, such as signal jammers, remote-controlled cars, etc., which makes the game more playable.

But there is obviously a problem with the game's operational strategy. This is a free game, but it tries to use a paid model to guide players to unlock maps!

In other words, if you don’t pay, you can’t play the new maps and can only play those three or four free maps!

Moreover, this game has other in-app purchases. Many firearms, accessories, and some powerful tactical props require payment to unlock.

In a word: If you don’t have money, play with your mother.

But even so, he still dominates the domestic FPS market - other companies simply don't want to make FPS games, which are politically incorrect.

So "Last Action" did monopolize the FPS market for a while, until it encountered an invisible big hand...

The authorities decided to gradually relax Internet restrictions and align with international standards. As soon as the news got out, there was an uproar both inside and outside the country.

It is not just domestic manufacturers who are facing the trend and are seeking transformation to develop new types and themes, trying to maintain their own market share and compete in overseas markets in the competition with foreign games.

Many foreign manufacturers have also set their sights on this large domestic market and have begun to localize their products into Chinese.

Many large companies are recruiting translation teams or local Chinese localization teams to assist with translation work, but most of the progress is still relatively slow because most of them are still following the path of narrative games.

The text is quite large, and the translation requires accuracy, accuracy and elegance, which is also quite difficult.

But FPS is different, especially online FPS, which does not have much plot content. The content that needs to be translated is mostly gun-related terms, which are relatively modern and can be translated using AI.

And "Assault", an FPS game that is very popular overseas, has recently completed Chinese translation with the help of domestic fans!

"Last Action" and the Spark Entertainment behind it suddenly lost a large number of online users, and now there are only two thousand daily active users.

After two weeks of declining revenue, Xinghuo Entertainment had already realized that the situation was going to change, and its internal employees began to prepare to switch to the next company.

The people that Gu Qingshi wanted to meet were developers from Xinghuo Entertainment, technical staff who personally participated in the development of "Last Action", and a limited number of FPS game practitioners across the country.

I'm going to Chongqing tomorrow, which is a 12-hour drive, so I'll update tomorrow as fate dictates. I'll make up for it next week. Love you (?? 3(???c).

Chapter 41 [You don’t want to, ****]

If Li Xiaomeng hadn't strongly dissuaded her, Gu Qingshi might have gone to interview those gentlemen wearing shorts.

We are all in the gaming industry, so we don’t really care about our outfits.

I'm not going to sell insurance, nor am I negotiating a business deal. There's really no need to wear a custom suit worth tens of thousands of dollars or a brand-name mechanical watch worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars. I feel constrained when I look so good.

Gu Qingshi has always believed this. In her previous life, she worked as an HR during the pandemic, and during online interviews, she had seen many interviewees who were dressed in suits and ties and had tropical outfits on their lower body.

Once the secret was exposed, everyone smiled at each other and pretended not to know, and continued the interview as usual.

After all, in the gaming industry, especially in the game development industry, technology and experience are the real hard currency.

He was wearing a suit, but his bald head and high hairline were exposed. To be honest, it was really funny.

Under Li Xiaomeng's personal guidance, Gu Qingshi put on a fairly decent T-shirt and skirt and went to the small conference room on the first floor to meet the interviewees.

There were three people in total. Although there were not many people, they were all core developers of "Last Action".

.......

......

That day, Sunday afternoon.

When Luo Jing arrived outside Beihai Villa by car, he felt a little dazed, as if he had returned to the afternoon when he sold the game to Xinghuo Entertainment.

Also arriving with him were Wen Sheng and Xie Zhan, who had participated in the development of "Last Action" with him.

The three of them have a special status in Xinghuo Entertainment.

"Last Action" was originally just a demo they and their classmates made when they participated in the NGI game creation competition during college. But unexpectedly, this demo became popular in the FPS circle.

Spark Entertainment also saw the commercial value of this game and invested in the small studio they formed.

But as long as it is an investment, there are bound to be pros and cons. Spark Entertainment is obviously not the kind of philanthropic investor who only invests money without caring about operations.

Within two years, Spark Entertainment had emptied out their operations and legitimately began to participate in the operation of the game. This included launching paid maps and listing krypton gold weapon accessories, which were also launched during this period.

As an FPS with a monopoly position in the market, although "Last Action" discouraged a large number of players, it still made Xinghuo Entertainment reap the benefits.

Luo Jing's sincerity gradually cooled, and finally he became disheartened. Most of the original staff of the studio left and basically jumped to various large companies. The three of them were reluctant to abandon "Last Action", their biological son, and they were unwilling to leave.

But now a large number of players have left "Last Action" and turned to the foreign "Assault", and they have completely given up hope.

Then, they saw the recruitment notice issued by Fanxing Studio.

Now, Luo Jingcong was a little panicked.

They have only played FPS games and have never been exposed to any grand strategy games. Will Ren Fanxing accept it?

It was also the first time he knew that the company he was interviewing for was the legendary Starry Studio that developed "Victoria".

But their development experience and Victoria's operational update needs are almost incompatible.

Luo Jingcong also came here with the mentality of giving it a try. After entering the villa, the three brothers couldn't help but marvel at it.

It’s worthy of being called Fanxing, with this decoration, the trial play area over there, wow, there’s even a little girl making coffee over there!

This place is so cool!

Gu Qingshi hadn't recruited any administrative positions yet, so she simply pulled Li Xiaomeng out to be the front desk. But who is Li Xiaomeng?

If you ask me to work, I will be as still as a mountain; if you ask me to slack off, I will be as aggressive as fire!

Li Xiaomeng was in a daze at the front desk for a while, then ran over to fiddle with the coffee machine.

Li Xiaomeng was operating the coffee machine clumsily. When he saw a few people coming, he immediately compared the electronic resumes he saw in the morning and confirmed them.

After the two sides handed over the items, Li Xiaomeng led them to the meeting room at the back.

"Here, the boss is inside, you guys can go in together."

Come in together?

The three people looked at each other.

There's drama!

Gu Qingshi had been waiting for a long time. When she saw someone coming, she didn't waste time and went straight to the point.

"I won't introduce myself here. You guys should be the producers of "Last Action" right?"

"Nice to meet you. I can't really be called a producer. I just participated in some development."

Luo Jingcong was a little nervous, but Gu Qingshi smiled and said, "Don't be too reserved. I'm so cute that I won't eat people!"

Gu Qingshi made a self-boasting remark, and the atmosphere immediately eased.

"Please." Gu Qingshi asked Li Xiaomeng to pour tea for the three of them.

Gu Qingshi's appearance was indeed very deceptive, and she spoke in a soft voice, which made her very likable.

"Just think of it as a chat, don't be too restrained."

"Okay, then I won't be polite, Mr. Gu."

Although Gu Qingshi said so, Luo Jingcong certainly couldn't talk nonsense.

After Luo Jing talked about his resume and experience, he saw Gu Qingshi looking at them with a smile. He neither discussed the salary nor persuaded them to quit.

"To be honest, you are not my target, Mr. Luo."

Gu Qingshi poured a cup of tea and looked at Luo Jingcong.

Luo Jingcong was slightly nervous. As expected, they and Fanxing were really going in the wrong direction.

Well, it's expected.

Luo Jing had made plans long ago.

"To be precise, I want your entire team." Gu Qingshi drank a cup of tea, "The entire team that developed "Last Action"."

Luo Jingcong was just waiting for him to go back and listen to the news. When he heard what happened, he was a little breathless.

The whole team?

As a game developer, he immediately knew what Gu Qingshi wanted to do - develop an FPS!

But he smiled bitterly.

"The entire team? Mr. Gu, the team in front of you is the entire team of "Final Operation" now."

"As early as two years ago, our team was scattered. You are so familiar with the FPS market, so you should know our situation at that time."

Gu Qingshi drank a cup of tea and asked slowly, "Mr. Luo, you should still keep in touch with your old friends, right? You can boldly tell them that we at Fanxing want to develop an FPS."
