Xia Jiang quickly completed the record and asked: "Mr. Pei, we all know that the games produced by Tenda have achieved double harvests in sales and reputation so far. This is a very rare thing."
“Many game developers are focused on making profits and choose to overdraw the reputation of the game, thus causing some works that may have become gods to die midway.”
“There are also works by some game developers. Although it has a good reputation, it cannot make enough profits and cannot even maintain the company's normal operations."
"It must be said that both situations are very regrettable."
"So, can you tell me how you balance sales and reputation at the same time?"
Pei Qian sighed silently: "Actually, I have no interest in making money at all. ”
“I have never considered how to balance reputation and profit. Every time I feel like I am going to lose money, but I don’t know why, but my reputation always explodes and my sales soar. ”
“I feel that Tenda has made too much money so far, which makes me feel suffocated.”
“I also really don’t understand why players are praising my games while giving me stuff. Money, this troubles me very much."
Xia Jiang nodded seriously and continued to write.
“A designer who is separated from material comfort and has a high pursuit of spiritual realm.”
“A soul that no amount of money can add any burden to.”< /p>
“Material enjoyment can be satisfied with just a little bit; spiritual pursuit is never-ending.”
“Never worry about setting goals that are too high. Instead, he is always reflecting on himself. "'Am I not thinking high enough? ' He often asks himself." After finishing the quick recording, Xia Jiang asked again.
"Mr. Pei, since you have achieved such outstanding achievements, what is your next goal?"
Pei Qian cleared his throat solemnly: "My The goal has never changed, I just want to make a game that loses money."
Xia Jiang was stunned, then nodded and quickly recorded it in his notebook.
“Is this the state of being alone and seeking defeat?”
“Most designers’ lifelong pursuit is to make a successful game, but he is secretly looking forward to the blessing of failure. "
"Perhaps the boring victory has made him feel boring. Only an inadvertent failure can make him feel a little bit of challenge."
"Take failure as a reward? The mirror can reveal gains and losses."
"There are many people who succeed in their efforts, but there are only a handful of people who fail in their efforts."
"It is hard to imagine what kind of storms it takes to achieve success. Such a calm and powerful state of mind."
Xia Jiang felt like he was thinking about writing, and the sound of "rustling" when the pen tip swept across the page was endless.
Pei Qian, who was sitting opposite her, began to have deep doubts about life.
Several questions in my mind tortured my soul one after another.
Why isn’t she surprised at all by her answer to me?
What on earth is she writing?
Why does she have such an "I understand" expression?
Pei Qian felt more guilty the more he looked at it.
No, director, is there something wrong with the script?
I was already talking nonsense, so why didn’t the reporter opposite raise any questions, but kept taking notes carefully, as if what I said was particularly good?
Pei Qian wanted to secretly take a look at what Xia Jiang wrote in the notebook, but the fonts on the shorthand notebook were like ghost symbols and he couldn't recognize a single word.
Ask?
There seems to be something wrong.
How can a reporter interview you and take the initiative to ask the reporter what he has recorded? Isn’t this questioning his professionalism? It would be too rude.
Pei Qian appeared calm and smiling on the surface, but in fact he was at a loss inside.
I had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
Go to the next question soon.
"So, let's talk about your new game "Back to the Shore"."
"As we all know, you choose a different game type every time. What kind of internal driving force is it? Is it the spirit of courage to step out of your comfort zone, or your instinct to keep making progress, or is it a detached attitude to play in the world? ”
p>
Pei Qian was speechless for a moment.
It’s getting more and more outrageous!
The question asked before was relatively objective, but this question is starting to be made explicit?
Pei Qian shook his head and categorically denied: "None of them."
"I just hope that trying some unknown fields can increase the chance of failure."
p>
This time Xia Jiang did not take shorthand again, but said with a smile: "I understand."
Pei Qian: "???"
You know what you know? !
I hate self-righteous people like you the most!
Pei Qian was completely speechless. He was now 100% sure that the reporter must have understood it wrong, and it was very, very wrong.
Pei Qian was going crazy, but his reason told him to calm down.
Whether this reporter understood it wrong or not, Pei Qian cannot forget his original purpose.
We must try our best to ruin the popularity of some passers-by! Recruiting bad guys among the player base can reduce some sales, and may even cause the next game to die violently!
Thinking of this, Pei Qian regained his calm expression and signaled to continue.
Xia Jiang continued to ask: "There have been many professional reviews about "Back to the Shore"."
"Have you ever thought of these?What would professional game reviewers say about this game? "
Pei Qian shook his head violently: "Not at all! "
Xia Jiang smiled and said: "So, did you originally think that the connotation of this game was very obscure, and were you mentally prepared not to be understood? "
"Huh? no. Pei Qian shook his head, "I never expected that they would make so many excessive interpretations of this game." ”
“Excessive interpretation? "Xia Jiang picked up the pen again.
Pei Qian nodded: "Yes, it is completely over-interpretation. "
"The acclaimed plot was not written by me. I randomly found some literature graduates from the school to write it. ”
“The reason why the game is so difficult is not to increase the sense of immersion. "
"I just want to make a game that abuses players. I will be particularly happy when I see players suffering. This is completely a bad taste of mine. "
"Do you understand what I mean? "
Pei Qian said very seriously.
Xia Jiang also nodded very seriously: "I understand, I understand. "
Pei Qian: "..."
Xia Jiang took the pen and wanted to jot down some content, but felt that it was not very accurate, so he asked: "Then what is 'Pudu'? What's going on? "
Pei Qian answered truthfully: "It was a cheating weapon I left for myself, but it was accidentally discovered by the players. "
Xia Jiang nodded: "So, you have played this game yourself. ”
Pei Qian was silent.
How do you say this?
I didn’t play?
It’s such a simple question. You're not lying, right? Besides, no one will believe me if I say this.
It doesn't seem appropriate. I just said this game is simple. It's to torture players, but if I play it myself, will it be understood that I am also a masochist?
So, Pei Qian didn't know how to respond.
Xia Jiang. With an expression of "I understand very well", he wrote quickly in his shorthand notebook
"Mr. Pei's humor also left a very deep impression on me. "
"Perhaps such successful and mentally strong people have a natural sense of humor, which makes the original plain and ordinary interviews become full of fun. "
"Mr. Pei admitted very simply that "Back to the Shore" is a game that takes pleasure in abusing players. ”
“However, before you abuse others, you should abuse yourself first. When many players suffer in the game, they don't realize that the producers of this game have already felt the pain they suffered. "
"'Pudu' is for oneself, why not for all living beings? ”
“If hell is not empty, I will never become a Buddha. ”
“If we didn’t have this great compassion of sacrificing our lives to feed tigers and cutting our flesh to feed eagles, how could we make a game like “Return to the Shore”? ”
Pei Qian, who had already made it quite obvious, felt a sense of despair in his heart when he looked at Xia Jiang, who had a serious look on his face and was writing fast.
It’s useless, you won’t listen!
It’s totally a chicken-and-duck talk, the two of them are not thinking on the same channel at all!
Pei Qian has no idea how to answer the next question.
Xia Jiang has finished recording and is ready for the next question.
Pei Qian quickly raised his hand to stop: "Editor-in-Chief Xia."
"Huh? Mr. Pei, please tell me." Xia Jiang's face was full of sincerity.
Pei Qian tried hard to choose his words: "Do you think that your understanding of what I said is a little bit...deviated?"
Pei Qian thought he was already there He tried hard to question Editor Xia's professionalism, but instead of being angry, Xia Jiang smiled and nodded.
"Mr. Pei, I understand."
"Your thoughts are too profound. I tried my best to guess, but I can only guess part of it."
< p>"Just like the brilliant stars in the sky, no matter how far you look, you can only see the most twinkling brilliance. And the magnificence beyond the field of vision can only be hidden in the darkness."< p>"I'm sorry, Mr. Pei, I have worked very hard."Pei Qian: "?"
Am I talking to you about whether I work hard or not?
You are indeed working very hard to misunderstand me!
Why can’t you explain it clearly?
No, this interview must not continue.
If this continues, who knows what the final manuscript will look like!
Pei Qian was thinking about how to escape when his cell phone rang.
I took it out and saw that it was an alarm clock for getting up at 10 o'clock.
Generally, Pei Qian would sleep until 10 o'clock when the company had nothing to do. Today's interview was scheduled for 9 o'clock in the morning, so Pei Qian set an extra alarm clock to wake up.
Just in time, the 10 o'clock alarm clock rang.
Pei Qian turned off the alarm clock at the speed of light, and then pretended to hold the phone to his ear: "Oh, okay. Just wait a moment, I will be there soon."
After putting away his phone, Pei Qian apologized: "Editor Xia, unfortunately, I have some work matters."
"How about you continue to interview my employees? I have to first Let's go."
Editor Xia nodded quickly: "Ah, okay, Mr. Pei, I have benefited a lot from today's interview."
Pei Qian turned around silently! Gone.
Forget it, you can’t afford to offend but you can afford to hide!
If you continue the interview, you may become a Buddha immediately, so run away!
Looking at Mr. Pei’s leaving figure, Editor Xia silently wrote another sentence in his notebook.
"The most terrifying thing in the world is that geniuses work harder than ordinary people."
After finishing writing, Editor Xia signaledCameramen can turn on their cameras.
“Let me see, who should the first employee interview?”
