As an author, his desire for copyrights and adaptations was naturally the strongest.
What's more, Yu Fei had already tasted the sweetness of Eternal Fallen Samsara's success. His reputation had increased by several levels.
Before this, he was only famous in Zhongdian Chinese Network's small circle. However, now, many domestic players knew Yu Fei's name and knew that he was the original author of Eternal Fallen Samsara.
To describe it in a specific way, this was called 'breaking the circle'.
If he had not been given a chance by Tengda Games and had instead buried himself in writing, how long would it have taken for him to break the circle?
What was the ultimate goal of writing a book for?
To let more people read it so that the book could be adapted and become more influential.
No matter how hard he worked or how much effort he put in, it was all for this goal.
Now, Boss Pei's suggestion could allow Yu Fei's new book to reach the top and achieve his ultimate goal of writing a book. How could he not be tempted?
Yu Fei fell into a dilemma.
Pei Qian looked at Yu Fei's expression and knew that he was on the right track. There was hope!
"How about this? Let's have a meeting first to finalize the game's outline and concept draft. You can consider it according to the situation. If you are satisfied, we can develop it. If not … we'll talk about it again. "
Pei Qian felt that Yu Fei would probably stay in the meeting.
The remaining 0.1% could be solved by dragging it out.
Yu Fei nodded. "Alright, I'll send a notice to the core employees.
"Also send a notice to the core members of Shang Yang Games and Fei Huang Workspace. Ask Ye Zhizhou, Wang Xiaobin, Huang Sibo, and Zhu Xiaoce to come over and discuss together," Pei Qian added.
…
More than half an hour later, everyone was present.
The people in charge were chatting happily in the conference room.
It had to be said that this was the first time everyone had gathered together in recent times.
That was because these people had gone on bitter trips in batches previously. There had always been fewer people. Now that they had all returned from their bitter trips, it felt like a lifetime had passed since they gathered together again.
However … some of the core employees of Tengda Games and Shang Yang Games had gone on this bitter trip.
It could only be said that the employees were like water and the bitter trips were made of iron.
No one was suffering forever, but there would always be people suffering.
Seeing so many people gathered together, Ye Zhizhou and Huang Sibo had their own guesses.
Obviously, Boss Pei was going to concentrate on something big again!
Previously, when they were developing Mission and Choice, Huang Sibo had gathered everyone's efforts to develop it under Boss Pei's hint. Tengda Games and Fei Huang Workspace had worked together to overcome this difficult problem.
This time, the two core gaming departments and Fei Huang Workspace had actually used all of them?
It was obvious that this was a bigger project than Mission and Choice!
At the same time, Pei Qian was working hard before the meeting. He was reading what Yu Fei wrote on Zhongdian Chinese Network's application.
This novel had less than 100,000 words so far, and the plot had yet to fully unfold. There was also a great deal of mystery surrounding the world. The content that appeared was limited to the large city where the protagonist was located.
In the comments section of the chapter, you could often see readers and players urging you to update.
Some were urging him to read, and some were urging him to play. Double happiness.
Pei Qian asked in a low voice, "How's the completion of the entire worldview and the subsequent plot?"
Yu Fei said, a little ashamed, "Not much … Actually, my plan is only about two hundred thousand words. I haven't thought about the rest in detail. The entire worldview and structure have not been finalized."
"The main reason is that I don't have much time to think about it carefully. What's more, I'm not an author who's good at planning. Sometimes, I'll rely too much on sudden inspiration …"
Pei Qian nodded. "Understood!"
It would be easy if he had not decided on the rest.
In fact, there were quite a few authors like Yu Fei who "thought while writing". After all, it was not difficult to slowly finalize the subsequent plot in the serialization process of one or two years, or to finalize the entire plot in a short two or three months of preparation.
All authors knew that it was best to have an outline and finalize the rest of the plot in advance. However, theory was theory, and practice was practice.
It was just like how everyone knew that they had to exercise every day to have a good body, but very few people could really persevere.
In Zhongdian Chinese Network, Yu Fei was not the top talented author, nor was he a very mature skill-based author. He was in the transition stage of an ordinary talented author to a skill-based author.
Otherwise, he would not have been chosen by Pei Qian.
However, Yu Fei's current state was exactly what Pei Qian needed!
If Yu Fei's worldview was especially perfect and there was a huge conflict with the game that Pei Qian wanted to create, it would be difficult to handle.
At that time, Pei Qian would only have two choices. He could either compromise on the gameplay and be forced to do some gameplay and plot that would not easily incur losses, or he could compromise on the restoration of the plot and create a work that was selling dog meat.
The latter might be able to incur losses, but Yu Fei might not even participate in this project!
This situation was easy to deal with now. In any case, Yu Fei's content had not been finalized. Pei Qian believed that with his Great Deception Technique, he would definitely be able to interfere with his creative intentions in all aspects. He would be able to combine the subsequent plot, game, and incur losses closely.
Pei Qian cleared his throat. "Alright, everyone is here. Let's officially start the meeting."
"I've called everyone here this time because I want to do a new project. Games and movies will be done together, just like Mission and Choice."
"However, Shang Yang Games has to participate this time as well. The three departments will work together to develop the game. The game will be larger than Mission and Choice, and the development progress will be shorter."
"This time, it's a true 3A masterpiece. The game and movie will be completed in October. We'll try to release the game and the movie from mid-October to early November."
Everyone's faces were filled with nervousness and excitement.
It could be said that time was tight and the task was heavy in more than half a year. However, since the project this time had gathered the strength of three departments, it would definitely be an unprecedented project!
Being able to participate in such a huge project was very exciting for everyone. This would have a huge impact on their career growth.
Pei Qian continued, "What we want to do this time is a game with a cyberpunk background. We'll use Yu Fei's original work as the prototype of the story."
"However, we have plenty of room to develop it since this movie has yet to show a very complete world view and plot structure."
Yu Fei lowered his head in shame.
That might be the case, but why did it sound a little wrong!
What did he mean by 'plenty of room to develop'?
Logically speaking, buying the rights to adapt should be because this movie was very popular, the plot was very complete, and the world view structure was very outstanding!
There must be a need to adapt mature works.
The plot was not completed well, and the world view structure was not complete. These were huge flaws, but Boss Pei actually said that there was' plenty of room to develop '. That was quite ridiculous.
Pei Qian continued, "The cyberpunk theme we want to create is definitely not like the foreign cyberpunk theme, but something similar to Tomorrow is Beautiful."
"However … don't have any plot connection with Tomorrow is Beautiful. Don't make it Tomorrow is Beautiful 2."
Pei Qian was considering that the classic cyberpunk theme overseas had a fixed audience. What's more, such a ready-made background was very likely to succeed overseas. It was not safe enough.
It had to be original. The acceptance of the original cyberpunk theme was relatively low.
However, it could not be associated with Tomorrow is Beautiful because Tomorrow is Beautiful had inexplicably succeeded. If it was associated with Tomorrow is Beautiful, many die-hard fans would definitely come to support it and mislead the passersby.
Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce were obviously a little disappointed when they heard this.
Boss Pei had very few 2s, but he had still counted them. For example, Ghost General 2 and Bullet Hole 2.
Tomorrow is Beautiful and Mission and Choice both had a continuation plot interface. He had originally thought that this work could be related to Tomorrow is Beautiful and form a universe of Tomorrow is Beautiful. At the same time, he could also link up with the cyberpunk food street to take the scenery and publicize it …
However, it was a pity that these expectations were all dashed.
However, no matter what, Boss Pei must have his own considerations since he had made it clear that he would not be related to Tomorrow is Beautiful.
Let's continue listening.
Pei Qian continued, "The background of the story this time is very simple: In the future universe of a parallel universe, in a virtual city of an elevated world, the entire city has been kidnapped by large consortiums. The gap between the rich and the poor has sharply widened, and it has entered a social state similar to that of cyberpunk."
"The large consortiums in different fields have formed an extreme monopoly and infiltrated all aspects of people's lives, deeply binding the entire city and everyone in it."
Everyone did not understand but felt that it was amazing.
Why was it a parallel universe, a future universe, an elevated world, and a virtual city …
These all seemed to be talking about similar things …
As for the overall background, it seemed to be mediocre. It was a standard Cyberpunk.
The large consortiums had a high degree of monopoly, the gap between the rich and the poor had sharply widened, and people's lives were tied up and monitored by high-tech … these were all very common settings.
Pei Qian continued, "These large consortiums are all Tengda's businesses.
"For example, Upwind Logistics, Fish-Catching Take-Out, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Tengda Games, Fei Huang Workspace … and so on.
"All industries related to Tengda will be in the game and become large consortiums in the game!
"These large consortiums can fight among themselves, but most of the time, they will join forces to squeeze ordinary people at the bottom.
"From the material to the spiritual, and then to every detail of life, they have to be reflected."
That was Pei Qian's idea.
Too good a reputation?
It's alright, I'll spend a lot of money to discredit myself!
Coincidentally, the other companies are joining forces against Tengda. Coincidentally, I'll help you publicize it!
