Chapter 702: Riot Studio
"BIGBANG has debuted for so many years, and no one else has had a fixed variety show except for being loud. ”
Although he told Yang Hyun Suk many times that he wanted to play on variety shows, YG's arrangement would only disappoint the waiting artists again and again.
And this year and next year, the sun himself got two variety show fixes, which were not arranged by the company with help, but people who had never met him once, this feeling is very complicated.
At the second intermission, the sun got up and looked at Kim Hyo-yeon, who was drinking water, and said.
"Can you give me Sage's phone number when the meeting is over?"
Kim Hyo-yeon blinked, puffed out his mouth and nodded.
On the other side, after hanging up the phone, Li Xianzhe got up and moved away from the stone statue he was leaning on, which was a very ordinary two-story building, and after a simple renovation, it looked a little out of place with the nearby residential buildings.
On the side of the entrance door on the first floor, there is only one signboard erected, on which is printed an ordinary human fist, and below it are several English letters full of game style.
"Riot Games", which translates to Riot Games, is Lee Hyun-cheol and Downey injected $8 million in '08, and now belongs to their game studios.
However, with the investment of funds over the years, Riot Studios chose a new headquarters in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, which was originally planned to be moved, but it was delayed due to the progress of the game.
In this way, the studio founded by Brandon Baker and Marco Meryl in 2006 received a large amount of money in '08, most of which was still spent on game development and equipment, and probably a group of tech nerds who didn't care about their work environment and home.
"Oba, was it BIGBANG's Sun senior?"
Seeing Lee Hyun-chul pondering on the spot after hanging up the phone, Shin Eun-so asked cautiously, BIGBANG, this kind of top boy group in South Korea, for her who was just a trainee, was still unattainable in the past.
But now, even such a trendy men's group takes the initiative to get close to their Oba, "This is my Oba" The thought flashed in her mind, and the little girl held Li Xianzhe's hand a lot tighter.
"They saw what we were doing in the U.S. and called to ask about it. ”
Lee Hyun-cheol touched Shin Eun-so's ball head, took the little girl's hand and began to walk up the stairs.
Originally thought that there would be all kinds of sundries at the corner of the stairs here, full of strange smells like in the movie, Shin Eun-so pinched his nose and followed Lee Hyun-cheol, but when he really came up, he found that it was very clean.
"I've asked a nearby lady to help clean it up, and I'm still paid~"
Pinching the girl's crystal little nose, the two came to the second floor, and when they entered the room, lami was like a curious bag all over the room.
From the outside, the building doesn't seem to be able to accommodate many people, but when you do, you can feel like you're not in a game studio, but in a video game city.
On the four walls of the interior, the letters "GLHF" are engraved in English, which stands for "good luck and have fun", and Shin Eun-so whispered this sentence on the walls, perhaps fearing that he would disturb other people's work if he was too loud.
This is the credo of Riot Studios, as well as the rules of the staff, which focus on the feelings of the players, and the games that cannot be played by the players are failures. ”
Lee Hyun-cheol was very satisfied with his sister's reaction, and it could be seen from the details that Shin Eun-so's tutor was good, and he became more and more well-behaved after staying by her side.
“boss~
Seeing Li Xianzhe walk in, the fist staff got up and greeted him, but when they lowered their eyes slightly and found that there was a little princess, a group of unkempt men looked for the mirror, or shaved or bent down to scavenge for snacks on the spot.
"Hello~~"
Being stared at by so many people, Shin Yinxiu was a little nervous, hurriedly greeted, and quickly hid behind Li Xianzhe, only revealing half of his face, and kept looking at the layout in the room.
There are group photos on every wall, and it looks like there are a lot of people here who have played professionally, and Riot Studios employees come from many countries, and it's like a hodgepodge, black, white, and Asian.
Lee Hyun-chul bowed his head and told the little girl that there were also Korean staff members here, and everyone could understand some simple Korean, which put Shin Eun-so at ease.
At other game companies, you might only play games in your spare time, but here, Riot executives believe that every employee can be a designer, so they encourage them to play other games as a source of inspiration.
Later, with the financial support of Lee Hyun-chul, Riot copied the Korean e-sports Internet café and simply built it in the company, of course, most of the funds were used in the new headquarters that had not yet moved in.
Even so, employees can experience games developed by interstellar, Dota or game companies from various countries at any time in front of their own positions, such as shooting, which are deeply loved by this group of old Americans.
"Just think of this as a video game city you've been to before, there are game consoles over there, you can go and play~"
Li Xianzhe knows that there are only a few things that girls can attract their interest in games, one is a dancing machine, the other is a claw machine, and everyone will find fault with each other.
Took a repurposed milk powder can from the staff, filled with game-specific coins, and watched the little girl run straight over, her little head staring at the game console for a while, and there was quite a kind laugh around her.
"Where's Kevin~"
Eating the biscuits handed over by a clerk, Lee Hyun-cheol inspected casually, and it could be said that he couldn't see that two people could play the same game, and the leap was very large.
Some of them only exist in the memory of the King of Fighters when they were children, and some are even playing Snowman Brothers, but in the same way, they all have a pen and a small notebook next to their keyboards, and they are afraid that only they can understand the ideas that have been scribbled and changed.
"Mr. Kevin is fighting against the president, but judging from the current situation, it seems that the ending is not good. ”
A certain black dude shrugged slightly, revealing his white, reflective teeth.
"Hey~ Be careful when Kevin hears this sentence, he will take the brush in the toilet and paint your face his color" Lost a cookie and put it in the other party's mouth, looking at the old man's instant happy chewing, Li Xianzhe realized that this cookie tasted good.
"Oh~ I feel like we're going to sign a long-term cooperation agreement with this biscuit manufacturer~ Which of you will be responsible? In return, I can reward him with ten doughnuts. ”
For a while, dozens of pairs of arms appeared in Li Xianzhe's line of sight, probably during the time of work, eating while playing games, too complicated eating would affect everyone's work process.
So outside of meals, Riot allows the staff to eat cookies and coffee to fill their stomachs, after all, the work related to the game is more mentally and mentally draining. 2k reading web
