Chapter 240: Development of PC games

Bingcheng Zhiduoxing Company, Li Junsheng is meeting for everyone to see the development progress of each group, and at the same time formulate the bonus distribution for the second quarter.
The company has already issued bonuses to their departments, but it is up to Li Junsheng, the person in charge, to decide exactly how to divide them.
He was talking, and suddenly he heard a knock on the door. What's the matter, when they meet in the department, there is usually no one to bother?
The door was pushed open before he asked to come in. He was about to scold, but he quickly swallowed back.
"Xiao Zhang, you are back."
Zhang Yang walked into the meeting room: "Where is the meeting? You continue, after finishing things, I have something to announce."
"It's okay, I'm almost here, you say first, I'm not in a hurry." Li Junsheng stood up and sat down next to him.
Zhang Yang sat on the throne and looked at everyone: "Everyone should be distributing bonuses, right, then please be happy, I am not a bad thing, you don't have to be nervous."
There are more and more people, the team is getting bigger and bigger, Zhang Yang is very satisfied.
"Do you know that now Microsoft in the United States has developed a new Windows operating system called WIN95, which is easier to operate and much easier than DOS?"
Li Junsheng they both nodded, they are very concerned about this kind of thing. Not only domestically, they also have some classmates abroad who often call to get some information in this regard to prevent themselves from falling behind.
"Have you ever played computer games?" Zhang Yang asked again.
"Mr. Zhang, what do you mean, we want to develop computer games?" someone asked.
"Yes, we are developing computer games. Why, it seems that you are not very optimistic about this?" Zhang Yang asked with a smile.
"Mr. Zhang, it's not me who pours cold water. We develop computer games. It's actually not difficult. Even some of our games on game consoles can be run on computers by developing a program."
"But this will seriously affect the sales of our game console discs, will the company's overall revenue decline?"
He didn't say a word. Computers now use floppy disks. Once they develop it, the other party uses floppy disks to make pirated games. They can't prevent it.
The VCD discs they produce now have no competitors at all, only they have the technology in China, but I heard that there is already a factory for pirated discs in Xiangjiang.
However, the main production there are songs and DVDs. The most harmful thing is the interests of Wan Yan Company, which has little effect on their Zhiduoxing.
Zhang Yang looked at the other party: "If you don't do it, won't others do it? Instead of handing the initiative to others, why don't we come by ourselves?"
"And most of the people who buy computers now are political axe units and enterprises, and few are individuals."
Everyone is even more puzzled when they hear this sentence. There are few personal computers. How many people will play computer games? It can't be said that you play computer games while you work? What if the leader finds out?
Then they heard Zhang Yang's next sentence.
"So we have to develop some small games running on the computer, which can be played with a mouse, windowed, can be minimized at any time, and there is no sound, and the impact is not great."
Everyone is puzzled, and they understand that Windows 95 is a Windows system. They can do research and development in this direction, but they can do it, but there is no sound, and it does not affect the effect. Is this unlikely?
The game is nothing more than a plot, picture and sound. If there is no plot, it is like the ET developed by Atari. It has a huge fan base, but the result is a dog, and Atari bankruptcy.
If the picture does not work, then many people may not see it, let alone play it. Now we are pursuing exquisite pictures, can't we go backwards?
Sound seems to be the least important, but it cannot be ignored. When you see who plays the game, there is no sound. Even if they play the game secretly, they will wear headphones, otherwise the experience will be much worse.
"Have you ever played chess? Have you ever played puzzles? Have you played poker or mahjong? If these games have no sound, will they have a big impact?"
Li Junsheng frowned: "Mr. Zhang, but the audience for this type of game is not high. Not many people are willing to spend money to buy this kind of game? We develop games, aren't we making money?"
This is what Zhang Yang told him. The most fundamental purpose of developing games is to make money. What are you doing if you don’t make money?
"I just give an example, this kind of game, its practical computer playing experience will be worse, if you can play against the Internet?"
"Mr. Zhang, the computers of many companies can't connect to the external network, and the network speed is so slow. What if the card is used? The price of the network fee is not low. With that money, why not find someone to play in person?" Objections were immediately raised.
"I know, but think about it. Since you first started working with computers, how much has the network speed increased and how many computers have you increased?"
"This is a step-by-step process and an inevitable trend in the future. So I'm preparing you to prepare a simple one now that you can upgrade in the future, upgrade in gameplay and experience."
"The two game ideas I want to talk about below, you listen to see which team is willing to develop, if not, it can only be decided by forced draw."
"The first game is very simple. Have you ever played a game of playing cards or mahjong tiles? They are the same two. Put them away. Many places call this the right one."
"We use different pictures ~EbookFREE.me~ to replace poker and mahjong tiles. This picture can be food, something common in life, or some pictures of people, the same picture, the same picture, two by one The wire connection is eliminated."
"This line can have up to two right-angle bends, but it can't pass through other pictures. Eventually all pictures can be cleared and you can pass the customs. I call this game-Lianliankan!"
Everyone looked at each other, is this game fun? Where is the fun place, how can they not feel it?
"The second game was changed based on the idea of ​​Tetris, dividing a plane into lattices of the same size, each with a gem in it, different gems with different colors and different shapes."
"Three gems of the same color and same shape can be eliminated together. Of course, more than three gems are also possible. The more the number of gems together, the higher the score."
"Each time you eliminate some, there will be random gems falling on it, filling the previous vacancies. Until you reach a certain point, it is the customs clearance."
"I call this game-Xiao Xiao Le!"
