Chapter 76: Transforming PC Games

"Parent Simulator" spread all over the Internet not only did the staff of Shinhwa Network not expect, even Li Yuanhang, who designed this game by hand, did not expect that a game could be so popular, even "XX Daily" All praised by name.

The staff of Shinhwa Network, especially Shinhwa Studio, are really happy to be able to participate in the development of this phenomenon-level game in person, and they can become the most beautiful cubs wherever they brag.

"Parent Simulator" sold a total of 20 million copies in the first month, with a monthly turnover of 110 million. After deducting the channel fee and Kaixia's share, the profit is about 44 million. Basically, most of the research and development has been recovered. cost.

More importantly, the sales momentum of "Parent Simulator" is still very strong. These 20 million copies are just the beginning, and the total sales must far exceed this number.

This is only in China. After a while, a special edition will be given to Crooked Nuts. It is temporarily impossible to estimate how much it can sell, but "Parent Simulator" has become one of the best-selling games in history.

The project dividend Li Yuanhang took out 45% of the total profit, which is a full 19.98 million.

Shinhwa Studio accounted for 30%, which means 13.2 million dividends.

There are currently 50 staff in Shinhwa Studio. The chief strategy, master beauty, and chief Cheng Yi each received a dividend of 500,000, such as the execution of the chief strategy, scenes, characters, and the front-end and back-end masters. 10,000, the others are 100,000 each.

Both Qinglong Studio and Zhuque Studio belonged to the R&D team afterwards, so they shared 15% of the profits. The left-behind staff and the operation and administrative staff of the two studios each gave out a bonus, which is regarded as rain and dew.

After the development of "Parent Simulator" came to an end, Wang Kai approached Li Yuanhang and asked, "BOSS, now "Parent Simulator" is also completed, should you find a job for us? "

Li Yuanhang asked Wang Kai to sit down and said with a smile: "The "Parent Simulator" has only been developed more than half, so how can I finish it?"

Wang Kai shook his head and said, "Can't let us continue to lay hands on Shinhwa Studio? Then everyone under my hands will have opinions."

Li Yuanhang said: "Brother Kai, who said it was for me? I mean, the follow-up content of "Parent Simulator" and the overseas version will be independently completed by Suzaku Studio. Of course, given that most of the games are It was Shinhwa Studios who completed it, so you need to turn in 70% of the profit of this game, and future games will only turn in 50% of the profit."

Wang Kai was shocked and said: "This is not so good, isn't it? Well, does Shinhwa Studio have a new project again?"

Li Yuanhang shook his head: "The new project is still in the pipeline for the time being, but it is certain that Shinhwa Studio will not be involved in the development of mobile games, transforming to PC games and console games. Therefore, I must put the "Parent Simulator" The follow-up research and development work of "is handed over. Brother Kai, you and your studio are both familiar with the development of this game, so it is only appropriate for you to take over."

Wang Kai felt Li Yuanhang’s trust in him, which he had never experienced in the front speed mutual entertainment, his waist could not help but straightened, and said: "Boss, rest assured, I will do the "Parent Simulator" well. Will not disappoint your trust."

...

Soon, the follow-up of "Parent Simulator" and the development of an overseas version handed over to Suzaku Studio spread throughout Shinhwa Studio.

The employees of Shinhwa Studio are of course unhappy. They have worked so hard just to raise the baby. In a blink of an eye, the baby will recognize someone else as a father.

It's just that now Li Yuanhang has established enough prestige, they squeezed their immediate boss to negotiate with Li Yuanhang, and in the end, of course, Zhang Wei, Zhang Yunhai and Wang Xiuqin were three of them.

Wang Xiuqin was unwilling to come. She felt that Li Yuanhang must have his intention to do this. However, the dozen or so artists under his hand were not emotionally stable except for a few people such as Zhao Qiaoyi, so they had to come together.

"Brother Hai, Brother Zhang, Sister Qin, I'm about to find you, let's sit down and talk."

Li Yuanhang took them to the office sofa and sat down. Shen Bing, who had been promoted to full-time secretary, prepared tea and drinks for them and went out.

Zhang Wei first spoke: "BOSS, we..."

Li Yuanhang waved his hand to interrupt him and said: "I know your intentions, and I will explain it to you now. The reason why I will hand over the follow-up of "Parent Simulator" and the overseas version development to Brother Kai is because I decided Since Shinhwa Studio is going to transform to the development of PC games and console games, it will basically not develop mobile games anymore."

Wang Xiuqin and the three of them were a little surprised. Although they knew that Li Yuanhang would transition to the PC side sooner or later, they never expected it would be so fast. Even the follow-up development of "Parent Simulator" would have to be handed over to others.

Zhang Wei swallowed his saliva: "Will it be too fast? Besides, no one in the studio is familiar with the development of the PC side. No matter what, the "Parent Simulator" has to be developed..."

Li Yuanhang shook his head: "Brother Zhang, the follow-up research and development of "Parent Simulator" is not a very difficult task. It can be done step by step. What is the difference between doing it ourselves and Brother Kai? Besides, the transformation is not achieved overnight. In fact, we need to recruit a group of talents who are proficient in PC game development, and you also need to be familiar with the PC game development environment."

"Especially Brother Hai, your program team needs to learn and master the new programming language and environment as soon as possible. The task is the most important. I will recruit ten new PC game programs for you. You should communicate well."

Zhang Yunhai opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just nodded: "BOSS, I will try my best to do it well."

Li Yuanhang turned his head to look at Wang Xiuqin: "Sister Qin, the art team must also step up learning and adapt to the PC-side development environment. After a while, I will organize a joint program and art team to study at the ZERO studio in the United States. , My brother-in-law Connor will receive that."

Wang Xiuqin looked at Li Yuanhang. From his entry into Fengsu to his dismissal to start his own business, she witnessed this young man, how step by step he has turned the original Shinhwa Studio into a first-class game developer in China, and he himself has become Became a well-known game producer in China.

In the past, Wang Xiuqin regarded Li Yuanhang more as her younger brother. Later, with the expansion of Shinhwa Network, she knew in her heart that although Li Yuanhang was still the same Li Yuanhang, she already had the authority of the boss, which made her dare not go anymore. As easy and casual as before.

In a trance, Wang Xiuqin suddenly heard Li Yuanhang's voice: "Sister Qin? What's wrong with you?"

Wang Xiuqin recovered, feeling a little flustered in her heart, and said: "BOSS, what if you don't want to do PC games?"

Li Yuanhang's expression sank, and said "murderously": "Since they are unwilling to follow me to make PC games in Shinhwa Studio, then let them find places that are willing to do mobile games. If Shinhwa Network lacks them, they can't do it. Games?"

Speaking of this, Li Yuanhang’s expression slowed down, and he continued: "Brother Hai, Brother Zhang, and Sister Qin, you are all old people who followed me when Shinhwa Studio was founded, and you all know that I want to make a 3A game. Yes. I will not give up this goal because of anyone. I hope everyone in Shinhwa Studio will work towards this goal together. I don’t want anyone to hold back our legs.”
