Say Yes To Making Bad Games, What the Hell is Titanfall?

  Chapter 86 Overdue graduates

   Three days later!

  Binjiang University, Zhixue Square.

  Red flags are waving, and there are huge crowds of people!

  The annual school recruitment event was held at Binjiang University as scheduled.

  Small and small enterprises from all over the country set up stalls on the Zhixue Square, and students seeking jobs crowded shoulder to shoulder.

   And among them!

  A small booth near the north side is particularly eye-catching.

  Because looking at the audience, only the front of the stage has the largest flow of people, and there are endless interviews!

  Gu Sheng sat under the small red banner of [Golden Wind Game], looking at the stack of resumes in front of him, with a resentful look on his face.

Yes.

  Golden Wind finally participated in the school recruitment activities.

Not only because of Shen Miaomiao's positive attitude towards cooperation, but also because Professor Lin promised them that as long as Jin Zhifeng came to the school to recruit, no matter what the result was, Gu Sheng and the three of them would be exempted from the assessment and defense of their graduation works, and they would be awarded a bachelor's degree certificate directly. and diploma.

  This condition made it impossible for the three of them to refuse.

  Because since joining Golden Wind, the three of them really have no time to prepare papers and works, let alone prepare for the defense.

   "Be happy, Director Gu!"

  Seeing Gu Sheng's dejected face, Shen Miaomiao patted him on the shoulder, and stuffed a lollipop into his mouth:

   "So many lovely classmates, so many young and immature juniors, how can you greet them with this expression, it seems that our Golden Wind has no vigor and vitality."

   "Then this position is for you?"

  Gu Sheng rolled his eyes and made a gesture to get up.

   "Don't don't don't, it's better for you to come,"

  Shen Miaomiao smiled embarrassingly, and pushed Gu Sheng back on the seat:

   "I don't understand your major, so I don't choose blindly."

  When the interview was mentioned, Shen Miaomiao felt a little apprehensive.

  Because so far, she has conducted only one interview as the main interviewer, and only interviewed one person.

   That is Gu Sheng.

   Among the 10,000 money-losing heads, she chose this cash cow.

   So far, she has tried her best, but she has only lost a little bit of one hundred thousand and one.

   What if she wins another first prize?

The consequences could be disastrous.

  So, Shen Miaomiao wisely chose to retreat bravely this time, and gave up the chief interviewer's seat to Gu Sheng.

  Gu Sheng has a big head.

  Because up to now, more than 95% of the nearly 200 people he interviewed initially were unqualified.

   Among the dozen or so people who initially passed the interview, only two were considered satisfactory.

  One is a classmate from the same department as him, surnamed Kai, single name Lang, cheerful.

  Although the name is very cheerful, but cheerful is not cheerful at all, on the contrary he is an extremely dull guy, in the same department for three years, Gu Sheng doesn't even have the slightest impression of this person.

  However, although this buddy is a boring gourd, he does a good job in programming, and even wrote a high-quality engine by himself. He is a rare talent.

  As for the other one, she is a sassy junior with a high ponytail named Jiang Shan. She is a junior this year and specializes in art modeling.

   The first thing you say when you sit down is that I want an autograph, can I?

   Gu Sheng saw this kind of request a lot, so he immediately signed one on the single page and gave it to his junior sister, causing Shen Miaomiao next to him to curl his lips.

result!

  The little junior sister Huaarm pushed back the signature directly, and expressed a little embarrassingly that what she wanted was actually the signature of senior brother Xu Dajiang.

   Made Shen Miaomiao next to her laugh out loud, and patted Gu Sheng's shoulder repeatedly, mocking her.

  Gu Sheng was speechless, but after some understanding, he found that although the little junior sister with flower arms looked carefree and even a little off-line, she was uniquely talented in art, especially in scene design, and her work style was magnificent.

   Even some scenes are not like a girl can construct, cold and solid, full of steel majesty with a sense of future technology everywhere.

   Two hundred interviews!

  Leave ten people!

   Two people stand out!

   With regard to this pass rate, Gu Sheng is really tired.

   Smash the lollipop in his mouth, Gu Sheng sighed:

   "It seems that it is really difficult to form a team of 15-20 people in the school recruitment."

  Hearing these words, Shen Miaomiao scratched her head, somewhat puzzled.

   Isn’t it just a cooking competition game? Do we still need so many people?

   "Ten people plus outsourcing, can't get it done?"

   "Not sure,"

  Gu Sheng shook his head:

   "If the 10-person team is all veterans, rich in experience, and willing to work overtime, it should be barely enough to cooperate with outsourcing production,"

   "But the thing is...it's all newbies,"

   "The three of us almost have to take care of each other, so that they can adapt to the real project, but there is not much time left for us,"

   "It's hard to do..."

no experience.

   This is the main reason why Gu Sheng is unwilling to recruit from the school.

  In fact, he is not resisting school recruitment, but resisting school recruitment "at this point in time".

  College students are high-quality, passionate, ideal and ambitious, and they focus on repaying kindness. As long as the rewards are in place, your life will be yours. They are definitely the most ideal employees for Golden Wind.

  But the problem is!

  At the end of the month, the PUBG project will be established, and the development will start immediately after the project is approved. They really don't have much time to let these new recruits get familiar with the battlefield.

  Bringing each one hand in hand... Gu Cheng always feels that he has no idea.

   Moreover, I am also worried that I don't have the energy.

  Seeing Gu Sheng's frowning expression, Shen Miaomiao felt a little guilty.

   But happy more!

   Hi Hi Hi Hi!

  Old Gu's expression clearly shows that the progress of the project will be full of difficulties!

   And once the project falls into adversity, the quality of the final product will definitely not be high!

   Hit the street!

   It means that my aunt and I are making money!

  Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao quietly made a sorry face to Gu Sheng:

   I'm sorry, Lao Gu, but it was not my intention to backstab you, the main reason is that the system gave too much!

  Be patient, when I buy a big yacht, I will definitely invite you to go out and play on it!

  I'm thinking!

Sudden.

   On the small bench in front of me, another interviewer took a seat.

   But when the two looked up, they were both taken aback.

  But I saw that the person in front of me was at least thirty years old, with a mediocre appearance, wearing a plaid shirt, and carrying a shoulder bag slung across his back. He looked completely in line with the stereotype of a programmer.

"Well…"

  Gu Sheng was even a little confused.

   After all, he has been a man in two lifetimes, and he has a lot of experience in reading people. He can tell the person in front of him at a glance, and he is definitely not in a hurry.

  Because this man's eyes reveal the travel and dust, and he looks like he has been struggling in society for many years.

  Gu Sheng opened his mouth: "Are you?"

   "My name is Jiang Yun,"

   As he was talking, the man in the plaid shirt took out a resume from his shoulder bag and presented it with both hands respectfully:

   "This is my resume, please have a look."

  Gu Sheng took the resume and looked down.

  See this resume, simple and exquisite.

  Shen Miaomiao on the side also raised her head to look curiously—

  Name: Jiang Yun

  Age: 33

  Native place: Binjiang

  Working time: 10 years

  Educational Background: Bachelor's Degree in Electronic Engineering Technology from Binjiang University

  Work experience: Deputy director of game project operation and maintenance, deputy director of game project planning, game project director, etc.

ah?

  Shen Miaomiao looked at the series of dazzling career experiences, her mind was buzzing.

   This is his grandma's.

  This is not on the same level as the vice presidents of the student union, deputy directors of the art club, and station masters on the resumes just now...Is it shit! !

  Deputy Director of Operations and Maintenance! Deputy Director of Planning! Game Project Director!

  We are school recruits, Wori!

   Not social recruitment!

  Even if you came out of Binjiang University, it’s been at least ten years since now, you’ve expired a long time ago, hey!

  Seeing that another big daddy was about to be recruited in, Shen Miaomiao panicked.

   "Uh this...that...um..."

  Shen Miaomiao handed over an awkward yet polite smile to the boss named Jiang Yun:

   "Sorry, we want to recruit 'fresh' graduates, you..."

   But before she finished speaking!

   Just beside him, Gu Sheng's cold voice sounded:

   "If you dare to sit in front of me, why don't you be afraid that I will slap you with a big mouth?"

ah? !

  As soon as these words came out, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but tremble in her heart.

  She has been with Gu Sheng for so long, and Lao Gu has always looked like a smiling old silver coin. He is very kind to everyone, and he doesn't care about laughing and cursing. He has an excellent personality.

  She had never seen Gu Sheng's tone so bad!

   "Old Gu,"

  Shen Miaomiao didn't know why Gu Sheng was so angry all of a sudden, but she instinctively stroked his back and said softly:

   "Why, it's not possible, why did you suddenly lose your temper?"

  In Shen Miaomiao's view, the man named Jiang Yun in front of him is just a little over-aged.

  There is absolutely no need for Lao Gu to lose his temper.

However!

  In the next second, Gu Sheng patted the resume on the table, and pointed to the column of "Past Works" with his hand.

  Looked in the direction of Gu Sheng's finger.

  I saw that in that column, three game titles were impressively written——

   "Fantasy Conqueror", "Brothers' Adventure", "Bombshell Raiders"

  Shen Miaomiao's expression froze.

  I don’t know about other games, but doesn’t she know about the game "Brothers Adventure"!

  Why did she go to Zhongjing in a fit of rage back then, turning Yiyou upside down and making Yan Sheng bloody!

   It is because the company that produced this game conducted a shameless secret operation on the vampire survivors of Golden Wind!

   That is to say!

  The man in front of me now...

   Was it the game director of Xingmang Games Company at that time? !

  In this way, Shen Miaomiao can fully understand where Gu Sheng's temper comes from.

  Even Shen Miaomiao frowned and buttoned up her resume!

   "You are not welcome to the golden wind."

   After finishing speaking, Shen Miaomiao waved her hand, signaling Jiang Yun to go back wherever he came from, and get out of here.

  At this moment, look at Jiang Yun again!

  He seemed to have expected the reaction of Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao, and bowed to them with a guilty face.

   Then, he bit his lip and said in a low voice:

   "I...I know it's abrupt for me to come in for an interview,"

   "But can you please give me a little time and give me a chance to introduce a job, thank you."

good.

  The "expired graduate" sitting in front of the Golden Wind recruitment site.

   It is the former star game project director who used to compete for hegemony in the small game market with a fantasy game, and then fell to the sky because of a brotherly adventure—

  Jiang Yun.

  …

   Time goes back to yesterday.

  "Asian E-sports Game Developers Conference will be held soon, China Entertainment Electronics announced the list of domestic game manufacturers participating in the conference"

   "The Wind of Gold is gaining momentum, pointing to the Asian Games"

  《MFGA is going to be heard in Asia? Industry insiders analyzed that Golden Wind will continue to make FPS games this time! "

  《Top of the list! What surprises will Wind of Gold bring this time? "

  《Innovation in innovation! Many senior game reviewers judged that if they want to win the championship with the size of Golden Wind, the only way is to innovate again! "

  《…》

  In the underground parking lot, Jiang Yun was sitting in his Bora, which he had driven for more than ten years, flipping through his phone.

   A piece of news slides on the page.

  Let him sigh involuntarily.

  However, more than half a year ago, Golden Wind was just a seedling game company, but their starlight has been deeply cultivated in the industry for a long time, and they are well-deserved T1-level small game companies.

   And now.

  Golden Wind has gradually grown from a small seedling to a tall and straight tree, becoming more and more lush, and has even begun to set foot on the continent, extending its tentacles to the international side.

  But Xingmang had already changed his name, he was hanging on his breath, half dead.

Yes.

  Since the Vampire Survivor incident, Yiyou has completely removed all Xingmang games.

  After learning about this incident, Xingmang's parent company immediately fired Chen Hang, who was the vice president at the time, and told him to pack up and leave as soon as possible.

   Then backhandedly renamed Xingmang Xingrui, and at the cost of accepting a huge 50% commission, Xingrui was affiliated with the Xunteng game platform.

  Afterwards, I no longer care about it, with an attitude of letting it fend for itself.

   And the newly transferred vice president also knew that he had been "assigned to the frontier", so he simply behaved badly and didn't care about the company's situation. His job every day was to fight the landlord, and he was just a word for the company's overall development plan - copy.

  So, following the example of Vampire Survivor, Xingrui launched five games similar to Vampire Survivor in just three months.

  But except for "Raiders in the Shell", which has achieved a little success, the rest of the works have all received mediocre responses and have not caused any splashes.

  Nowadays, the status of the entire company is bad.

  No innovation, no passion, waiting for a slow death.

  Jiang Yun knows that if this continues, the company will be ruined sooner or later, and he will also face unemployment.

  But it is not a wise choice to resign now, because there are old and young in him.

  Thinking of this, Jiang Yun couldn't help lowering the car window, and lit a sad cigarette.

  Others stand at thirty.

  But now, seeing that he was about to run thirty-five, not only did he fail to stand still, but he also shrank.

  Jiang Yun couldn't help sighing when he thought that he was also an excellent designer who once held a fantasy hegemony and stood at the press conference and attracted applause from the media players.

  How can I live more and more backwards?

   While thinking, Jiang Yun flipped down the phone page.

  Then, he discovered a piece of news—

   "The Big One is Coming—Golden Wind officially announced the expansion of enrollment today! Want to explode the masterpiece to compete in the Asian Games! "
