Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

chapter-1511
As an author, he had the greatest desire for copyrights to be adapted.
What’s more, Yu Fei had already tasted the benefits. The success of Eternal Reincarnation had improved his reputation by several levels.
Previously, he was only more famous in Zhongdian Chinese Network’s small circle. However, many players in the country already knew Yu Fei’s name. They knew that he was the original author of Eternal Reincarnation.
Using a specific term to describe it, this was called ‘breaking out of the circle’
How long would it take to break out of the circle if he did not have the opportunity given by Tengda Games and buried his head in writing?‘What was the ultimate goal of writing a book for?
In order to allow more people to read it, to allow the book to be revised and obtain greater influence.
No matter how hard he wrote or how much effort he put in, it was for this goal.
Now, Boss Pei’s suggestion could allow Yu Fei’s new book to reach the top in a single leap and reach his final goal of writing, How could he not be tempted?
Yu Fei fell into a dilemma.
Pei Qian knew that his path was right the moment he saw Yu Fei’s expression. It was very likely!
“How about this? We’ll hold a meeting and finalize the concept draft of the game. You can consider it based on the situation. If youre satisfied, we’ll develop it. If not… we’ll talk about it.”Pei Qian felt that Yu Fei would probably stay after this meeting.
The remaining 10% could be delayed.
Yu Fei nodded. “Alright, I’ll send a notice to the core employees now.”
“At the same time, send a notice to the core members of Shang Yang Games and Fei Huang Workspace. Ask Ye Zhizhou, Wang Xiaobin, Huang Sibo, and Zhu Xiaoce to come over and discuss together,” Pei Qian added.
Half an hour later, everyone was here.
The people in charge chatted happily in the conference room.
He had to admit that this was the most everyone had gathered recently.
That was because these people had gone on Suffering Travels in batches previously. There were always very few people. Now that they had all returned from Suffering Travels and gathered together again, it felt like a lifetime had passed.
However… some of the core employees of Tengda Games and Shang Yang Games went on this torturous trip.
He could only say that he was an employee of the running water, and he was suffering.
No one was suffering forever, but someone would always be suffering.
Seeing so many people gathered, Ye Zhizhou, Huang Sibo, and the others began to guess.
Obviously, Boss Pei was going to gather his strength to do something big again!
Previously, when they were developing ‘Mission and Choice’, Huang Sibo had been hinted by Boss Pei to develop it together with everyone. Tengda Games and Fei Huang Workspace had jointly solved this difficult problem.
This time, the two core gaming departments and Fei Huang Workspace were going to be used?
It was obvious that this project was definitely bigger than Mission and Choice!
At the same time, Pei Qian was in the midst of a sudden attack. He was reading Yu Fei’s novel on Zhongdian Chinese Network’s application.
There were less than a hundred thousand words in this novel so far. The plot had not been fully developed, and there was a lot of fog in the world. The content that appeared was only limited to the large city that the protagonist was in.
‘There were many readers and players urging him to update in the comments.
Some were urging books, while others were urging games. Double happiness.
Pei Qian asked in a low voice, “How’s the progress of the novel’s entire worldview and the rest of the story?”
Yu Fei was a little ashamed as he said, “Not good… Actually, my plan only reached 200,000 words. I haven’t thought about the rest. The structure and structure of the entire world have not been finalized.”
“It’s mainly because I don’t have much time to think about it carefully. What’s more, I’m not an author who is good at planning. Sometimes, I would rely on sudden inspiration…”
Pei Qian nodded. “Understood!”
The rest was not decided. That was easy.
In fact, there were many authors like Yu Fei who “thought about it while writing”. After all, it was not difficult to slowly finalize the subsequent plot during a one or two year serialization or to finalize all the plots in just two or three months of preparation.
All the authors knew that there had to be a general outline and it would be best to finalize the rest of the plot in advance. However, theory was theory, and practice was practice.
Just like everyone knew that maintaining exercise every day was good for the body, but very few people could really persevere.
Yu Fei was not the best talented author on Zhongdian Chinese Network, nor was he a very mature skilled author. He was in the transformation stage of ordinary talented authors to skillful authors.
Otherwise, Pei Qian would not have selected him.
However, Yu Fei’s current state was exactly what Pei Qian needed!
It would be difficult if Yu Fei’s worldview was perfect and conflicted with the game that Pei Qian wanted to make.
At that time, Pei Qian would only have two choices. He could either compromise on the gameplay and be forced to make games and plots that were not so easy to incur losses, or compromise on the plot reduction and tum it into a sheep selling dog meat.
Yu Fei might be able to lose money but he might not participate in this project at all!
The current situation was easy to deal with. In any case, the content after Yu Fei had not been finalized. Pei Qian believed that with his Great Deceit, he would definitely be able to completely interfere with his creative intentions. He would be able to combine the subsequent plot, game, and loss money of
the novel closely.
Pei Qian cleared his throat. “Alright, everyone’s here. Let’s have an official meeting.”
“I called everyone here this time because I want to make a new project. I want to make a game and movie together, just like ‘Mission and Choice’.”
“However, Shang Yang Games will also participate this time. The three departments will develop together. The game that they will develop will be larger than Mission and Choice, and the development process will be shorter.”
“This time, it will be a real AAA game. The game and movie will be completed in October. Let’s try to release the game and release the movie from mid October to early November.”
Everyone looked nervous and excited.
In more than half a year, time was tight and the task was heavy. However, since the project this time had the power of three departments, it must be an unprecedented large project!
Being able to participate in such a huge project was very exciting for everyone. This was a huge promotion for their career growth.
Pei Qian continued, “This time, we are going to make a game with a Cyberpunk background. It will be based on Yu Fei’s original novel as the prototype of the story.”
“However, since this novel has not displayed a complete worldview and plot structure, we have ample room to develop it.”
Yu Fei lowered his head in shame.
That made sense, but why did it sound strange!
‘What did he mean by there was ample room for improvement?
Logically speaking, he should have bought the copyright to the adaptation of the novel because it was very popular, had a high plot completion, and had an outstanding worldview!
There must be a need for mature works to be adapted.
The plot was not complete, and the structure of the world was not complete. It was a huge flaw, but Boss Pei said that there was ample room for improvement. That was quite ridiculous.
Pei Qian continued, “The Cyberpunk theme that we are going to make is definitely not like the foreign Cyberpunk, but something similar to Tomorrow is Beautiful.”
“However… don’t have any connection with Tomorrow is Beautiful. Don’t make it into Tomorrow is Beautiful 2.”
Pei Qian’s consideration was that the classic Cyberpunk theme overseas had a fixed audience. What’s more, this ready-made background might achieve success overseas. It was not stable enough.
He had to be original. The original Cyberpunk theme was relatively less acceptable.
However, it could not be related to Tomorrow is Beautiful because Tomorrow is Beautiful had inexplicably succeeded. If it was related, there would definitely be a lot of die-hard fans who would support it and mislead passers-by.
Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce were obviously a little disappointed when they heard that.
Boss Pei had very few 2s, but he had still counted them. For example, Ghost General 2 and Bullet Hole 2.
Tomorrow is Beautiful and Mission and Choice had left a sequel to the plot interface. He had thought that the works this time would be related to Tomorrow is Beautiful and form a Tomorrow is Beautiful universe. At the same time, he would link it to the Cyberpunk Food Street to get a scene and publicize
it.
Unfortunately, all his hopes were dashed.
However, no matter what, Boss Pei had clearly said that he would not get involved with Tomorrow is Beautiful. He must have his own considerations.
He should just continue listening.
Pei Qian continued, “The background story this time is very simple: in the future universe of a parallel universe, in a virtual city that frames the world, the entire city has been kidnapped by the large financial group. The gap between rich and poor has been sharply divided, entering a social state similar to
Cyberpunk.”
“Large financial groups in different fields have formed an extremely monopoly position. They have penetrated into all aspects of people’s lives, deeply connecting the entire city and everyone in the city.”
Everyone listened intently.
Why was it a parallel universe, a future universe, a framework world, a virtual city.
All of those things sounded similar
As for the overall background, it seemed to be ordinary. It was the standard Cyberpunk.
The large financial group was highly monopolized and the gap between rich and poor was sharply divided. People’s lives were tied up by high-tech and surveillance… were all very common settings.
Pei Qian continued, “These large financial groups are all Tengda’s businesses.”
“For example, Upwind Logistics, Fish-Catching Take-Out, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Tengda Games, Fei Huang Workspace… etc.”
“All industries that are related to Tengda will be put into the game and become a large financial group in the game!”
“These large financial groups can fight among themselves, but in most cases, they will work together to squeeze the ordinary people at the bottom.”
“Every detail in life, from matter to spirit, must be reflected.”
That was Pei Qian’s idea.
Too well known?
It’s alright, I’ll spend a huge sum of money to defame myself!
It’s just as well that the other companies have joined forces to oppose Tengda.. It’s just as well that I’ll help you advertise!
