Chapter 838 The Survival Manual for Office Workers

Pei Qian put the annual meeting plan aside and planned to watch it later if he had time.

It’s not that he is lazy, but mainly because he thinks it doesn’t matter what he does in the annual meeting, and his priority is not that high.

The first priority is to spend money, the second priority is to ensure that those industries that are not profitable continue to make money, and the third priority is to make less money in industries that are already profitable.

Holding an annual meeting to pay benefits to employees is just a small part of the top priority.

"The most successful thing in this cycle should be considered the incubation base of the Final Road Plan."

"So far, only two independent games have been launched. One is very popular but not popular, and the other is neither good nor popular. In short, neither of them has made much money."

"And according to the development progress of Qiu Hongfa, several games that are quite innovative and he has high expectations for are not currently available for online progress, and will be released next month as soon as possible. They should not cause trouble to me before settlement."

"As a matter of fact, the Qiantu Plan has not disappointed my expectations. It is still in a pure loss state, and the outside world basically does not know that the Qiantu Plan is built by Tengda."

"It's great if you don't win both fame and fortune!"

Pei Qian happened to flip the work report of Qiu Hong's incubation base and was very satisfied with the current status there.

However, at this moment, Pei Qian's cell phone shook and Qiu Hong sent a new message.

"Mr. Pei, good news!"

"Today, the "Office Worker Survival Manual" was officially released, and its reputation and sales were directly overwhelming!"

Seeing this message, Pei Qian's previous smile froze on his face.

What's the thing?

What is the "Office Worker Survival Manual"?

He hurriedly opened the report sent by Qiu Hong, which contained the names of all the independent games being developed by the incubation base, but after reading them from beginning to end, he did not see the so-called "Office Worker Survival Manual".

"What's going on!" Pei Qian was speechless for a moment and felt that his mentality was broken.

What is the promised dead end plan that will definitely not make money this cycle?

Where is this game coming out?

...

Meanwhile, the imperial capital, Cherry Studio.

The studio's boss and producer Jiang Fan, as well as the main designer Yang Liang, were watching the sales data in the backstage.

Although it is not yet time for the Chinese New Year, this small team of four is as happy as it is for the Chinese New Year.

Qiu Hong has arrived, and the smile on his face cannot be completely covered.

The excited expression on Jiang Fan's face was simply beyond words: "Mr. Qiu! The success of this game is really thanks to your investment. If it weren't for this money, our game would not have been completed so much, and the development would not have been so smooth. The end-of-road plan is a timely help!"

Qiu Hong smiled and waved his hand: "This is so polite. I'm actually just investing in independent games according to the boss's requirements. If you meet the requirements, I will invest. Actually, I haven't seen whether your game will work before."

"To be honest, I didn't expect that the "Office Worker Survival Manual" can achieve such good sales and results. I thought it would be the most small hit, but I didn't expect it to be a big hit!"

"I have to thank you. The original Duotu Plan has not represented the works. Although my boss has not held accountable, it is indeed a bit difficult for me to submit. Now that the popular game is available, I have a bright face!"

Main designer Yang Lianghan smiled and said, "Actually, the success of our game also has a great component of luck."

"There are so many 'social animals' nowadays, and everyone is an office worker. They empathize with the phenomenon of intrigue and forced overtime work, and hate it."

"It's the end of the year again. News about year-end bonuses and annual meetings of major companies spread throughout the Internet. Everyone is busy with the lemon, which has a natural topic in itself."

"And the "Office Worker Survival Manual" shows the status of this kind of social animal very well, arouses everyone's resonance, and spreads it instantly, and it becomes a hit product!"

Qiu Hong smiled: "This game is really inseparable from the overall environment. But your design and persistence are the fundamental reasons for the success of the game!"

"Independent games are a chore, and very few people can persevere. The four of you either quit their jobs and start their own businesses, or they are franchise with salary cuts. This spirit is the most critical factor that supports your success."

"Okay, don't look at the data, we have to celebrate well, go out to eat barbecue, I'll treat you!"

Jiang Fan hurriedly said, "How can that work? I have to ask."

Qiu Hong raised his hand: "Don't argue with me, saying that I'm asking for it, I'll invite you. Everyone, pack up quickly, let's go now!"

Qiu Hong was as happy as Jiang Fan and others.

On the one hand, he was sincerely pleased to see the success of the independent game production team; on the other hand, he was also happy that a representative game finally appeared in the end.

Mr. Pei gave high hopes for the Xintu Plan, but so far, no successful game has been released, so Qiu Hong can't bear it.

Qiu Hong earns money based on how much money he invests. Whether these games are successful has no effect on his income, but if he has not achieved any results, Qiu Hong will feel uncomfortable.

The success of Cherry Studio was a complete surprise for Qiu Hong.

Because Qiu Hong's recent work focus is still on the incubation base, but several games on the incubation base are still a certain distance away from being officially launched.

On the contrary, Cherry Studio, Qiu Hong has not paid attention to it after investing. Today, he suddenly learned that their game was released and became popular. How could he be unhappy?

Cherry Studio was not included in the incubation base.

Because the incubation base is aimed at game producers who fight alone and have no supporting services, Cherry Studio is a four-person team with office locations and clear division of positions. Although the sparrow is small and has all the internal organs, it does not need to be included in the incubation base.

The only thing Cherry Studio lacks is funds. After Qiu Hong directly blocked the biggest funding gap, the game's art resources were quickly in place, and everyone's work status was greatly improved after no worries. The game "Office Worker Survival Manual" was naturally completed as scheduled!

It was released before the Spring Festival and happened to be on the hot spots in the workplace: annual meetings, year-end bonuses, resignation waves, etc., which aroused widespread resonance on the Internet.

As a domestic stand-alone game, the representative work of independent games is naturally enthusiastically sought after by players. Several game UP owners on Ally Island have made video programs, and the good program effect has attracted more players to the trap.

Qiu Hong was waiting for the others to pack up their things to eat, and while waiting, he browsed his phone and checked the online reviews.

It can basically be said to be highly praised!

Although this is an independent game, there must be some flaws in the gameplay, system and art, the subject matter is relatively novel and can resonate with players. Therefore, tolerant players still ignore these flaws and give it a high evaluation.

For Cherry Studio, as long as these defects are modified in the future, the game's completion will be further improved, and the evaluation will be higher.

Compared to hard-working development, subsequent modifications are very simple.

After all, the game has been confirmed to make a profit, and Cherry Studio will not have to worry about money in the next few months. The game has been recognized by players and will be more motivated to work.

"Wait a minute, then, am I doing something?"

Qiu Hong suddenly realized this problem.

Before, he had always felt a little confused about his work and didn't know what to do.

Because he is responsible for the dead-end plan, he is only invested in independent game studios and producers, and cannot interfere with specific game design, so he often feels powerful and incapable of making it happen.

Seeing that the sales of the two games launched were not good, and other games were not available this month, Qiu Hong felt that his work had no results, and he was anxious but had no good solutions.

But now the Office Worker Survival Manual has been successful, so there is an explanation!

Taking advantage of the popularity of this game, Qiu Hong plans to popularize the concept of "Dead Path Plan" to players.

There was no successful game before, even if the concept of "The Endless Road Plan" was forcibly instilled in players, there would not be too many people pay attention to it. But now with successful games, the situation is completely different!

Qiu Hong’s goal is to allow players to link their “Finished Tour Plan” as soon as they see excellent domestic independent games.

This is a very important part of whether it is for other independent game producers, for Qiu Hong and even the entire Xutu Project.

"Yes, that's it. I'll use the "Office Worker Survival Manual" to promote the Xuntu Plan."

"At the same time, we will also take out the DEMO and promotional videos that have been completed in "Ink and Wash" and start a pre-sale!"

Qiu Hong felt that he suddenly found the direction of his job and instantly became full of energy!

...

At the same time, Pei Qian also searched for information about the "Office Worker Survival Manual" online, but his expression was not as ecstatic or relieved as Qiu Hong, but was confused and confused.

The plan to win the way is good, where did this broken game come from?

Moreover, this game is actually popular?

What is the point of a game that restores social animal life?

Pei Qian searched casually on the Internet and soon found a highly praised player comment, expressing the players' love for this game.

"To be honest, this game cannot be considered very outstanding in terms of gameplay, picture or details, or even ordinary. But its biggest point is that it is well selected, very realistic, and has a strong resonance."

"for example:"

"The company I joined is called 'Xiao Fendou Co., Ltd.';"

“The game’s explanation for the lack of difficulty is: ‘There is no difficulty option in the workplace because everyone is facing HARD mode’;”

"If the boss fails to complete the boss's expectations, the boss's satisfaction will decrease, and the chance of applying for promotion and salary increase will decrease. However, if you work hard to complete the boss's expectations, the more you complete the task, the higher the difficulty, and the growth of satisfaction will become slower and slower..."

"These resonance points are everywhere, which shows that the designers of the game are also well aware of the suffering of social animals."

"While being real, this game has many metaphors. If you jump out of the game and look at those options as a bystander, you will feel that your life seems to be spent in this helpless way. While being amused by the black humor, you will be unable to stop feeling bitter."

"Anyway, as an indie game, it's completely beyond my expectations."

"Many people think that big productions that cost hundreds of millions of yuan are good games. There is no good games in China because they are reluctant to burn money. Obviously, this is not the case."

"A truly good game depends on whether the designer has a heart that truly loves the game. Thanks to Cherry Studio, I will continue to support it in the future!"

"In the end, most of the endings of this game are a bit bitter. What is the ending of overwork, the ending of mental collapse, the ending of mediocrity, the ending of midlife crisis... they are all too miserable!"

"It is highly recommended to add a 'Tengda start' so that we can also imagine the beauty of the workplace!"
