Chapter 269 Profit Eighth Update

"Come, let's celebrate together."

Zuo Zhen came to Yu Mengchen's side with a wine glass in hand.

Yu Mengchen turned around, his eyes flashing.

"You have worked hard for Final Fantasy during this time."

Yu Mengchen looked at the wine glass in Zuo Zhen's hand and smiled, then picked up the wine glass in his hand and touched it with Zuo Zhen.

"This is all work, and it's Zuo Zhen. You need me, right?"

"certainly."

"So, as long as you need me, I will work hard no matter what the job is."

Although she was not directly involved in the main art design of the game, which made Yu Mengchen a little disappointed for a while, she later participated in the construction of the scenes and characters in the game.

You Zhaolonggui is more suitable for pure art design, which is the icing on the cake. The real core is Yu Mengchen and his team, which can be said to be indispensable.

"The development of Final Fantasy is complete. We can take a break. Do you have any plans or plans? Judging by the time, we should be about to graduate."

"As long as you still need me, Zuo Zhen, then I have nothing to think about. I will always work for our company."

"Do you have any opinions at home?"

Yu Mengchen pursed his lips and shook his head: "They probably won't care about me. I have two brothers."

Zuo Zhen understood immediately after hearing it.

Two brothers, in this era, basically means that the family's industry and development belong to only those two people. The elders in the family probably pay more attention to the two men.

"Then follow me, real games will always need Mengchen."

"Then I will follow you all the time, don't leave me."

Yu Mengchen clinked glasses with Zuo Zhen again, and then drank the rest of the wine in one gulp.

"Okay!" Zuo Zhen also smiled slightly.

The celebration lasted all night.

Later, a group of people ran to the ballroom for a second celebration.

This Zuo Zhen will not participate. He doesn't like that too noisy environment, so he simply lets them go to work and pay for the reimbursement.

Back in the rental house, Zuo Zhen began to study the harvest carefully.

The biggest gain is naturally the money brought by sales.

1.7 million in the first month, and the cassette sells for $59. After excluding the production cost of the cassette, I can earn $20 per copy, which is equivalent to $34 million.

When Zuo Zhen calculated this number, he couldn't help but smile.

Keep half in the overseas account and transfer the rest to the country. With this money, you can almost make the next plan.

That is to find a way to get some hardware.

The first thing to do is flash the memory.

It’s really difficult to make games nowadays.

Game capacity is often insufficient.

Until now, we still have to limit the size of Suosuo to 1MB. If it is slightly larger, it will not work.

The group of foreign memory manufacturers are not living up to expectations, or they all want to squeeze out toothpaste-style development and be satisfied with a little progress every year. This is not acceptable.

With this money, I can find a way to build a memory production line in China, and at least increase the game memory capacity to 10MB first.

As for whether this will bankrupt the foreign memory industry, this is not something Zuo Zhen has considered.

Of course, it would be better if we can really go bankrupt and let the country enter the memory industry technology in advance, and in turn monopolize the technology overseas.

Then, in addition to the monetary gain, there is also the gain in the system.

The first is points. It is appropriate to get 17,000 points for the 1.7 million sales in the first month.

It can be used to find a talent of Pajitnov's level, or it can be exchanged for a set of props to increase the efficiency of the next game development.

When the system was opened, the points gain column directly came to 23,000 points.

Seventeen thousand of those points were brought by Final Fantasy.

The rest are naturally sales revenue from previous games, which also brought hundreds of thousands of sales during this period, which can be converted into millions of dollars.

Now the snowball effect is beginning to show itself.

Old games continue to bring sales revenue, and sales of new games are also rising.

If I accumulate 32,000 points and improve my ability to find talents, I don’t know what kind of talents I will find.

The kind of Shigeru Miyamoto, the father of Mario?

Or the level of game engine creator John Carmack?

But this means the game would have to sell at least another four million copies to get a chance to find such talent.

It should be much easier in the future, but I'm afraid it won't be that easy now.

Apart from points, there is no increase in item redemption, but this time it was given a title that looked pretty good.

‘I am No. 1’ (No. 1 sales volume in the first month of the quarter)

Effect 1: After equipped, one prop can be randomly produced every quarter.

Effect 2: Every time you get a new game after equipping it, ranking first in sales in the quarter can increase player loyalty by 1%.

This title feels like it is finally more effective this time.

The previous titles all randomly increased the effect by some percentage, and they all only increased by one or two percent.

But this time the title can be cumulative.

If you increase player loyalty by one percent, if you win the first place in a quarter a hundred times, wouldn’t it mean that player loyalty is 100 percent?

But it's not easy either.

It would take twenty-five years to be No. 1 in one hundred quarters.

In the later stage, a game will often take one, two, three, four, or even seven or eight years to complete. If you want to get 120% loyalty, it should be the limit.

Unless he can live a hundred years longer.

So Effect 2 can be considered the icing on the cake.

Effect 1 makes more sense.

Props can be obtained randomly every quarter.

I don’t know if it is an existing prop in the system mall or other unknown props. There is no explanation for this.

Zuo Zhen wore this latest title without hesitation.

With this thing, even if you give me the cheapest system mall item every quarter, you will save yourself 5,000 points, which is the biggest benefit.

Not bad.

At least the title is finally usable.

As for the next thing to consider is the development of the next game.

But this is not urgent for the time being, people always need to take a rest.

Especially for creative people, high-frequency brain use also allows the brain to relax.

So in the next period of time, Zuo Zhen plans to find opportunities to wander outside.

Not only domestically, but also abroad.

While changing your mind, see if you can still find some inspiration for the development of the next game.

Of course, if you really can't find it, you still have an option, which is to continue developing the sequel to the previous work.

Mega Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, Three Kingdoms series.

These alone are enough to keep you busy for a while.

But having said that, should I also consider increasing the size of my team?

The current manpower alone may not be able to produce multiple games in a row.
