In the afternoon, Pei Qian went to the company first to take a look at GOG's research and development status.
Ma Yang has already sent the beta client of ioi.
After all, Yuanmeng Venture Capital has shares in Zhidou Company and is a domestic game agent. It is natural to ask for a client.
Although it is an English version, Pei Qian can still understand roughly with the help of his CET-4 English level and Qiandu Translation.
Comparing ioi’s version with GOG’s current version, Mr. Pei feels much more at ease.
The gap is still very obvious!
ioi has not had public testing before, and only occasionally sent out a few versions that are currently being improved. Although Pei Qian has seen it, he has no clear idea of what stage the game is at.
Because the lol in Pei Qian’s memory is already in a very mature and complete form, and looking at the ioi in its embryonic stage, it is naturally awkward and cannot be evaluated objectively.
However, after knowing the reactions of players during the test, Pei Qian was roughly sure.
The quality of the game itself is unquestionable. At least for now, its competitiveness in the current field is self-evident.
On the other hand, GOG is far behind in terms of completion.
Pei Qian doesn’t know whether this is because the ioi project was established earlier and the research and development progress is faster, or because Li Yada and his entire project team are lazy?
Pei Qian hopes it is the latter.
I have to say that as soon as the Tenda Spiritual Fit Test came out, not only the mentality of new employees has changed a lot, but even the work attitude of old employees has also been greatly improved!
For example, the design team of Tenda's game department, as die-hards who often work overtime, has significantly reduced the frequency of overtime work recently.
It seems that Li Yada and the others are strategically giving up on the first zero-overtime contest selection.
Between completing work tasks and receiving bonuses, they chose the former, which made Pei Qian feel a little regretful.
However, Li Yada and the others did not seem to have broken the rules. They felt that there was no chance of a zero overtime competition anyway, so they worked even harder overtime.
But we are working hard to reduce overtime hours and overtime shares every week.
This made Mr. Pei feel very satisfied, with a sense of joy that "the die-hards finally figured it out".
In short, GOG is currently in good condition. If you have extra money in the future and don’t know where to spend it, throwing a few million at GOG shouldn’t be a big problem.
After all, the gap between ioi and GOG currently seems to be more than a few million can make up.
Thinking of this, Pei Qian felt a little relieved. While reviewing, he looked forward to the dinner in the evening.
......
In the evening, there was a family dinner in Ming Mansion.
"Mr. Pei! You're fine!"
Zhang Zuting, Lu Zhiyao and other important members of the crew met Pei Qian at the door of the hotel.
"What are you doing? It's cold. Come in and tell us."
Pei Qian hurriedly led everyone inside.
Before entering the restaurant, Pei Qian whispered to everyone: "As I told you before, everyone has come all the way to help me make a movie. I have to fulfill my duty as a landlord no matter what."
p>
"The reservation at the nameless restaurant is for the 20th, which is three days later. So in the evening three days later, let's go have a big meal again."
"In these three days, Let’s just have some fun in Jingzhou and have a good rest.”
“Today’s meal is a celebration of completion.”
“The meal three days later is a practice for everyone. , by the way, I wish the movie a big hit at the box office!”
“So today’s meal may be a little bit inferior, so don’t mind it, just eat it.”
Pei Qian's words are, on the one hand, to inoculate everyone in advance so that they can be mentally prepared for today's meal. On the other hand, they are also to find a valid reason for eating two meals in a row.
Both reasons are very legitimate and impeccable, and the system has no reason to disagree.
Zhang Zuting smiled: "Mr. Pei, what you said is too outrageous."
"Part of the reason why we came to cheer is because of your face, Mr. Pei. But a good script and a good team are also very important factors for this movie.”
“Mr. Pei’s script is good. If the movie is a box office hit, then all of us will also benefit from it. "It's not too late to thank Mr. Pei!"
Everyone greeted each other and sat down at the Ming Mansion family banquet.
Li Shi is not here today. It seems that the company has something to deal with.
However, he had already said hello in advance. The store manager here knew Pei Qian, and this time the restaurant was reserved, so he naturally had to treat him cordially.
Soon, delicious dishes were served one after another.
Probably because I didn’t bring Xiao Tang with me today, the food was served very quickly and there were no problems along the way. Everything was normal.
Everyone in the crew tasted the exquisite dishes one after another and felt satisfied.
Just a little confused.
When Mr. Pei said before, "Let's all make do with each other," was he being modest, or did he really think so?
If the quality of this place is relatively low, then what kind of quality does the nameless restaurant have to be?
The heroine Lin Ruyi couldn't help asking this question to Lu Zhiyao next to her, because Lu Zhiyao had eaten at an unknown restaurant.
Lu Zhiyao thought for a while: "It's not easy to describe, but... the nameless restaurant is indeed better than here, and much better."
...
< p>At another table, Pei Qian was discussing with Zhu Xiaoce and Huang Sibo the arrangements after the film is finished.“The movie has started to be edited, and a rough cut will be released in a few days.have a look. "
"After that, in addition to editing, there will also be a series of miscellaneous things such as post-production special effects. In short, try to get it done within a month. "
"But Mr. Pei, I can't guarantee this time. I can only say as soon as possible. "
Pei Qian was a little disappointed: "One month...then it will definitely not be released in time for the Spring Festival. ”
“For Valentine’s Day...it’s quite annoying. "
"It's a pity. ”
The Spring Festival of 2011 is on February 3rd, and there is less than half a month left.
Even if the post-production period is exhausted, it will not be released during the Spring Festival.
Of course, Pei Qian had no intention to rush the schedule, let alone ask everyone to work overtime.
The reason why it is a pity is that Pei Qian feels that these two schedules are very suitable for " The movie "Better Tomorrow" is released during the Spring Festival. Family reunion is the world of comedy films.
Valentine's Day is the world of romance films.
A film as vicious and sadistic as "Better Tomorrow", cast under the guise of "sci-fi romance" and with such a confusing name, will definitely be scolded if it is released in these two schedules. , was squeezed out by those comedies and romance films.
The schedule is still very important when the movie is released.
Because there is fierce competition among the movies released at the same time. Good movies have high attendance rates and increased movie schedules, which will naturally squeeze the living space of other movies.
Pei Qian is looking forward to making a big hit and squeezing out his own movies. That's great.
Zhu Xiaoce said: "The traffic is relatively large during the Spring Festival and Valentine's Day, which is indeed a good time. However, the connotation of our film is a bit profound and may not be suitable for these two schedules. "
"In my opinion, this movie might as well be scheduled for May Day, so you won't be late for a good meal. ”
May Day?
Don’t make trouble, the settlement will be on March 31st. If you set the date for May Day, won’t the day lilies be cold?
p>
Although there is a project in this cycle that can delay settlement, Pei Qian still wants to leave such a critical mechanism of delayed settlement to Panic Hostel, how can he leave it to a crappy movie that is destined to lose money?
In Pei Qian's opinion, the sooner this movie is released, the better. Anyway, it is destined to lose everything, and delaying it for one more day will increase the risk.
Pei Qian said: "May Day is too late. Totally unnecessary. In my opinion, just one month from now, February 22nd will be a good day. "
Zhu Xiaoce: "? ”
He took out his phone and looked at the calendar and found that February 22nd was a Tuesday. It was not a holiday, not even a weekend.
Zhu Xiaoce’s confused expression lasted for two seconds. , and then his eyebrows widened.
Does Mr. Pei have other plans? Or is this an auspicious day?
Looking at Mr. Pei’s seriousness, it doesn’t look like he’s joking. /p>
Zhu Xiaoce nodded: "Okay Mr. Pei,Then set it for February 22. But... on a day like this, the pressure to promote our movie is huge. "
Whatever.
Pei Qian is very indifferent. What's the point of promoting a movie on the street? It would be better if there is no film schedule after it is released, and no one knows about this movie. , that’s good.
“That’s it, eat the food. ”
……
……
Have enough food and wine.
Pei Qian sent everyone off the crew one by one.< /p>
The crew's itinerary has been arranged for the next three days. Someone will take them around Jingzhou, so Pei Qian doesn't have to worry about it.
Of course, this trip is not a roller coaster bungee jumping. The one-stop tour of the haunted house is just a normal game.
After all, Pei Qian knows very well that friends and enemies must be treated differently.
People work hard to help him beat the streets. The movie burns money, and it may have to bear some notoriety because the movie is too bad. If Pei Qian kills someone again, will he still be a human being?
"Mr. Pei, just sit back for a moment?" "Li Shi came to the door and said.
Pei Qian saw that he seemed to have something to say and nodded: "Okay. "
The two returned to the restaurant and found an empty seat to sit down. The waiter brought a pot of tea.
"Mr. Li, if you have anything to say, just say it. "Pei Qian wanted to bypass the politeness. He also wanted to go back to bed early and get up early to review tomorrow.
Li Shi was a little emotional: "Mr. Pei said before that he would take more care of the business here. I thought It was just a polite word, but I didn't expect Mr. Pei to be really interesting. "
"I have only been open for business for more than a week, and Mr. Pei has already booked two sessions..."
Pei Qian took a sip of tea and found that the tea was indeed pretty good: "Li Boss, I told you not to think too much, this is just a normal dinner party. Mr. Li, you don’t just want to say this, right? "
Li Shi smiled and seemed to have made up his mind: "Mr. Pei, I have thought about it. "
"I'm going to invest some money in your haunted house project! "
"It doesn't matter even if the money is wasted, it should be a thank you to Mr. Pei! "
Pei Qian drank tea, and a question mark slowly floated over his head.
