Chapter 531
With the start of the new semester, it also means the official start of the first half of 1996.
For Qin Feng, every day is still two o'clock and one line. He goes to Tsinghua University every day to learn IT knowledge, and takes time to learn various car-related knowledge.
For Qin Feng, there is not enough time to allocate at present. IT must be learned. The future is the world of the Internet. If you don’t learn IT, you will be out of touch. If you want to make achievements in IT in the future, this aspect
The knowledge should not be said to be top-notch, but at least it should be proficient.
As for car-related knowledge, such as engine manufacturing, machinery manufacturing, etc., there is too much to learn, and Qin Feng can only take his time.
After all, IT is changing rapidly, and if you don’t keep up with the trend, you will be eliminated.
On the contrary, in the manufacturing industry, upgrading is not that fast. It often takes several years, even more than ten years, or decades to develop.
In this regard, Qin Feng can take it easy.
"Qin Feng, Sony's PS has become popular now! Should we develop a PS game?" Wang Leilei approached Qin Feng and asked.
At present, the company's main direction is still the arcade market, which is still relatively hot. But at the same time, the company has also begun the research and development of computer games.
After all, Taiwan's "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is already very popular. Naturally, they also see the future of computer games.
However, currently there are not many computer rooms, yes, computer game rooms across the country. On the contrary, there are still many video game rooms. And PS has become popular.
Do you want to launch one or two PS games? As long as they are in Chinese, they will definitely make money.
Qin Feng thought for a while and refused directly.
"Our current game research and development capabilities are still very backward. If we compete directly with those big Japanese companies on PS, we will be turned into scum in an instant!" Qin Feng shrugged, "At that time, it will affect our company's reputation.
On the contrary, in the computer game market, there is no such concern. It doesn’t matter if we are a little bit worse! The player base is inclusive enough!”
Now if you compete with established game manufacturers such as Konami, Namco, Capcom, and Nintendo on PS, you will be instantly reduced to scum. If your reputation is too bad, your sales will be very poor, and your employees' confidence will be undermined.
Heart.
Especially, if you launch the game on a computer game after the external reputation is really bad, players may not buy it!
"Okay!" Wang Leilei didn't insist. As for games, his goal is also computer games. In the future, the world must be computer games, not console games.
After all, you don’t have to buy a console, but it’s impossible not to buy a computer. In addition to playing games, computers can also be used for office work. On the contrary, game consoles can only be used for games.
"Currently, we are working on the two computer games you mentioned before, "Jin Yong's Legend of Heroes" and "Gu Long's Heroes". At present, our company has three game departments, two of which are engaged in computer games, and one is engaged in arcade games.
The number of employees has exceeded 700! Of course, more than 400 of them are part-time!" Wang Leilei said with a smile, "Basically, we have a monopoly on all the students in the relevant departments of Tsinghua University. Hey, speaking of it, many companies are following
Our school teachers protested!”
Since Qin Feng, a computer game company, directly recruits students internally, it recruits all IT departments, including those students who are related to it. After all, this department is not popular these days and is relatively unpopular.
Because IT is not yet developed in China, many people do not have this awareness. Therefore, all such students in Tsinghua University are taken care of by the company.
Moreover, in the future, even if the department expands its recruitment, the company will be able to continue to cover them all. After all, it is normal for a game company to recruit thousands of people at will.
Such a result has naturally led to dissatisfaction among some large companies, especially some large state-owned enterprises.
If you, a private company, are all covered, what will they do? Do you still have the overall picture?
However, Wang Leilei has connections here, and since he is a college student starting a business, he has a national dividend policy. Even if those big companies and large state-owned enterprises come to complain, it will be useless.
As for the school leaders, they are just dealing with it.
"If you have talent, you can't let it go!" Qin Feng smiled, "However, we also need to introduce competition internally. The competition in this industry is the most fierce. Especially for this game, once the development fails, all the money will be wasted!"
"Well, I know that. However, the most difficult problem for us at present is the piracy problem. The sales of previous FC games were not satisfactory. Although the "Jin Yong Heroes" on FC we developed was very well received by the market.
.But there are too many pirated copies. When it comes to computers, I’m afraid there will be more!” Lei Jun came over and said.
Piracy! This is a pain point for all game companies in China.
Qin Feng thought for a while and shook his head helplessly.
"Piracy cannot be eradicated. Therefore, we can only do our best and use a grading system to get fans to spend money!" Qin Feng said, "The most important thing is the quality of the game. If the quality of the game is good, fans will be willing to spend money.
"
If the quality of the game is not good and you ask fans to spend money, then the fans will naturally not be happy.
Of course, in Lin Feng's view, as long as he does not lose money in the past few years, it will be fine. After all, with the popularization of the Internet in 1999, online games can start to be launched. This is the time to really make money. Now, it is about polishing everyone's technology
!
As long as the company has the ability to develop games, it won't have to worry about making money.
Qin Feng knows very well the direction of the game in the coming years.
The first popular game was "Stone Age", a cartoon turn-based game that attracted many players.
This was followed by "Legend", which completely swept the entire mainland market. After this, there were "Miracle", "Jin Yong's Heroes" and so on in the same period.
Then, "Fantasy Westward Journey" and "World of Warcraft" divide the world. In between, there are also some games such as "Star Online" and "Journey".
Of course, after this, it’s “League of Legends”.
Qin Feng understands how to make money in online games.
These are all tools to make money and are used to subsidize heavy industry enterprises.
Qin Feng didn't believe it. All the money from domestic players could not build a heavy industry enterprise that could compete with international brands!
Although it is said that in heavy industry enterprises, it is impossible to overtake in corners, but as long as you have enough money and work hard to catch up, you can always do it.
"Remember, the quality of the game must be good, and there must be fewer bugs. If it doesn't work, you can put the game on the campus LAN to find bugs, and then just give everyone a little money!" Qin Feng said.
At present, as the highest university in the country, Tsinghua University has built an on-campus local area network. Of course, not many people are using it yet.
Chapter completed!
