"Marvel infinite", to a large extent, Andy refers to some features of "Grand Theft Auto". Under the open world map, he is a game that integrates driving, gunfight, fighting, Yang and even business elements, and features superhero super ability.

Andy, who has read a lot of infinite online articles, naturally knows how to improve the playability of this game. In terms of game settings, he will, in each round, let the players, as random entrants, throw 100 players into the marvel world scene by means of special subway and plane parachuting. Hot weapons and props will appear on the plane, do tasks, fight and win, and get rewards.

Maybe at the end of the day, after the players have become superheroes, the steel battle clothes fly around, a hundred Hulk cities are demolished, fifty American captains and fifty winter soldiers fight each other, tut, the picture will be beautiful!

Everyone in the conference room of Mockingbird game company knows that this game is a new work that their big boss attaches great importance to. After discussion, everyone also finds that this game is very clever. No one is a fool, and all of them are elites in the industry. Naturally, they understand that once this game is launched into the market, it can make huge profits.

As everyone knows, the dividend of their own company to the development team is also very attractive. Look at the current three members of the development team: my world, angry birds, and stiff plants. That's a lot of money.

In Mockingbird game company, every programmer hopes that the game in his hand can be sold, and then lead a good life of driving a sports car and living in a luxury house. Therefore, the development right of this marvel infinite has become the hottest target.

Andy looks at his group of people, one by one, staring at himself, shaking his head and laughing.

"Even if there are teams with projects in hand, this game will first develop PC version, and because it involves copyright issues, it needs to be authorized from Marvel group. In a cooperative way, it needs to give Marvel group some share..."

With Andy's explanation and introduction, the mood in the conference room gradually calmed down, especially those groups with game projects in their hands, they knew that they were doomed.

"It's up to you, Blair."

Hearing the big boss's words, Blair, as CEO, smiled and nodded: "no problem, boss, I'll call people together as soon as possible to form a development team to start this project."

"Well, that's good. Our decision to invest in developing our own 3D engine has undoubtedly taken a very correct step." There is no need to restrict the development of games because of 3D engine, which makes Andy very happy. If a game company does not have its own technical characteristics, it will have no future.

"The development of the second generation game engine should not be left behind. It is necessary to make the picture more delicate. It is necessary to make the game picture give people the most direct and intuitive feeling, such as the texture of leaves and grass, the texture of various firearms, the Bo pattern of water surface, the conversion of long-range and close range, the special effect of light and shadow, the interaction between characters and the scene, etc., which should be more rich and delicate, more in line with the view of human eyes, and more Have a sense of reality. In this way, the players will have a stronger sense of substitution. "

After hearing the suggestions and requirements from the big boss, the person in charge of 3D game engine development nodded seriously. They engine engineers really admire the big boss's courage and excellent vision. Since the professional business engine has become popular, no company will invest a lot of human capital to develop exclusive products except for several old game companies Game engine, is to spend some money to buy off the shelf business engine to develop the game.

This can save a lot of money, but it also restricts the development of the game company. There are no characteristics. Some even sacrifice the quality of the picture to ensure the smooth running of the program. Moreover, the design mode of the commercial engine is relatively monotonous and simple, and the games made are much similar.

A meeting was held for more than two hours, which not only listened to the recent situation of each project team, but also got a more comprehensive understanding of the operation of Mockingbird company. Of course, the big boss opened his brain and made a new game plan. After the meeting, it spread to the company.

The development and listing of a game is hot. No one in the whole company doubts that the big boss's plan will not succeed. After all, the big boss's plans are all classic games, and all are money traps!

At the end of the meeting, Andy did not stay in the game company more, but under the guidance of Blair, he took a car to visit the construction site of the new headquarters building that mockingbird game company had started.

Although there is nothing beautiful and dusty on the current construction site, Andy stands in front of the design renderings of the headquarters and looks at the distinctive and impressive pixel building. He is in a very good mood. As an enterprise developed from his own hands, he is the first one to start to build his own headquarters building. Mocking bird game company is undoubtedly his best The high-quality assets that we value are strange if we don't care!

After a walk around the construction site, Andy left the site with satisfaction. At noon and Mockingbird game company, the main person in charge of the free city app mall, said a rich working meal. At 2:30 p.m., Andy, with his little assistant and the negotiation team in charge of the acquisition of the Los Angeles Times, appeared in front of him and rushed to the headquarters of Tribune newspaper group.On the platform illuminated by the flash light, Andy quietly signed his name on the document with his extravagant pen. But Eddie, the publisher and chief executive of the Los Angeles Times, who had been standing in the crowd at the press conference, betrayed him with his trembling fists and the excitement in his eyes At the moment of the mood is how excited, but also a long sigh of relief.

From top to bottom, in order to find a good way out, the Los Angeles Times forced the parent company to make a choice by means of a general strike, which undoubtedly took a great risk. To be honest, as a professional manager, Eddie's behavior undoubtedly belongs to betrayal, which will bring indelible pollution to his resume and career no matter whether he succeeds or not Point.

I think of the meeting with Andy Smith, who is going to take over the new boss of the Los Angeles Times. The other side's eyes, expression and tone are deep, and their heart is shrouded in haze. At the same time, they are extremely bitter.

"Don't worry, it's OK. I'm sure Mr. Smith will understand. After all, we have to."

Hearing the subtle words of consolation, Eddie turned to John, the editor in chief of the newspaper beside him, and said with a wry smile: "our new boss... Ah, up to now, it's useless to say anything. I hope... "

Editor in chief John didn't hear Eddie's words after hope, because the press conference was already full of warm applause, and the flashing lights lit up the whole rostrum. Andy Smith smilingly shook hands with the chairman of Tribune newspaper group, exchanged the trading contracts in his hands, and then turned to the press for a photo.

"The 128 year old Los Angeles Times has changed hands again. Where to go? Now, what does it mean for American newspapers and even for global newspapers?

Is the Los Angeles Times still valuable the next time it's sold? "

Andy sat on the rostrum, with a calm expression, calmly facing the eyes of many reporters who were like wolves under the stage, and opened his mouth to say a series of questions, so that the scene, which was still a bit noisy, became quiet.

"It's said that I keep buying newspapers as if I went back a hundred years ago, when a small number of rich people controlled the influential media." Andy finally smiled and shook his head. "Maybe, unfortunately, holding newspapers now doesn't pay off. From the time I decided to buy newspapers, I knew that today's newspaper industry would not be as profitable as it was decades ago. Now the profit is very low, and it will be lower and lower. "

The scene became very quiet. Every reporter looked at Andy Smith, who seemed to be laughing and shaking his head. He listened to him carefully and said: "we need newspapers, we need honest intellectuals, we need writers and editors who are passionate about this work.

At this moment, I would like to say to my Los Angeles Times staff that the dilemma since 2000 has come to an end. I will make sure that you have the tools and resources to produce high-quality news that readers need and rely on. Our legend is more than that. Our new legend is beginning! "
