If you make a horror game, can you greatly increase the probability of losing money?

Pei Qian certainly knows that there are some very successful and very profitable horror games in the world, but on the whole, such games are in the minority.

Only a handful of horror games stand out and be remembered by players, while most horror games or horror movies have gone down the streets in obscurity or have been reduced to material for some complaining shows.

The reason for this is the same as a haunted house.

On the one hand, the horror theme naturally dissuades a large number of timid players or viewers;

On the other hand, if the horror theme is not done well, it is easy to make it a funny theme.

Take, for example, horror movies.

If you want to shoot scary, you must first ensure a high degree of realism, and the investment in scenes, props, costumes, makeup, etc. is very high.

On the basis of ensuring investment, it is also necessary to use superb shooting techniques and storyboards to make the audience never guess what will happen next, and always maintain a tense spirit to ensure that the audience's immersion will not be stripped away.

If you are a non-professional playing horror theme, it is easy to play the effect of this haunted house in Jingzhou, and it is not pleasing to both ends:

Timid tourists are afraid to enter, and bold tourists find it boring.

The same is true for horror games, there are very few manufacturers that can really do a good job in horror games.

And the reason why Pei Qian wanted to let Yuyang Games do horror themes was because everyone who took a fancy to Lin Wan and Yuyang Games had no experience in developing horror games.

When the time comes, make a very garbage horror game, and it is logical to go to Qiao Laoshi's "Garbage Game Spitting" program, wouldn't it be beautiful?

Of course, we still have to encourage everyone, at least we have to coax Lin Wan and Ye Zhizhou to take over this task with a high probability of failure.

Pei Qian put the teacup aside and said seriously: "The domestic game market, the field of horror games, is still blank at present!" ”

"The domestic stand-alone game industry is very weak, and in the field of horror games, it is even more niche in single-player games!"

"At the same time, horror games require extremely high levels of competence from the producers."

"Since you want to prove yourself, if you want to do it, you have to do the most difficult subject! If you can conquer even horror games, you can make other games in the future, of course, even more! ”

"Tengda people, how can they retreat in the face of difficulties?"

Lin Wan blinked and fell into deep thought.

Obviously, after listening to Pei Qian's words, her attitude wavered.

Pei Qian was secretly proud in his heart, and sure enough, he knew that saying this would have an effect!

If it were someone else, Pei Qian's words might backfire and make the other party retreat.

But Lin Wan is different, she is a girl who likes challenges.

Moreover, the mobile game version of "Bloody War Song" has just achieved such great success, and the entire project team is in an atmosphere of blind optimism, as the saying goes, it is relatively inflated.

In this case, who wouldn't want to make a triple-A masterpiece with its own topic to prove themselves?

Pei Qian felt that this kind of temptation was absolutely impossible for the employees of Yuyang Games to refuse.

Lin Wan thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Pei, I still have to discuss this topic with Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin again. ”

Pei Qian smiled and nodded: "Of course you can." ”

He had already seen that Lin Wan's heart had obviously been shaken.

Since the three of them didn't think about what to do, then Pei Qian's direction would become their guiding light!

Lin Wan stood up and wanted to call Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin over to discuss how to do the new game together.

Pei Qian raised his hand and stopped her.

"Wait a minute, there's one more thing."

Lin Wan nodded: "Mr. Pei, you say." ”

Pei Qian was serious: "In addition to the new game, there is another important task to be entrusted to you. ”

"Tengda wants to create a new mobile phone brand."

"And this mobile phone brand ...... I want to put it in your hands. ”

Lin Wan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook her head: "No, Mr. Pei, I really can't be responsible for this." ”

"I've bought a lot of expensive mobile phones, but I don't really know anything about them, and I don't have much interest. What's more, I still have to be in charge of the foreign game, and I definitely can't be busy. ”

Pei Qian, who was categorically refused, was not impatient, and Lin Wan's reaction was within his expectations.

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse."

"Mobile phones are a very important business layout for Tengda, and their importance is even higher than that of foreign games."

"After all, the upper limit of Yuyang Games is just a well-known domestic game company, but the upper limit of the mobile phone business may be a technology giant with a market value of 100 billion!"

"In the future, the impact of mobile phones on people's lives will inevitably become more and more close, it is a mobile terminal, and it is also a window for everyone to communicate with the network."

"Just like Shenhua Group, a mobile phone market can easily bring a game to fire, this huge energy, you should have seen it, right?"

"If you can succeed in the mobile phone business, then Tengda will be like a tiger with wings!"

Pei Qian desperately painted cakes.

Lin Wan hesitated: "Uh...... Mr. Pei, I understand everything you said. But I still feel that I have to be in charge of both the game and the mobile business, and I have some lack of skills......"

Pei Qian shook his head: "You underestimate yourself too much. ”

"It's a must-have for everyone who wants to grow from an average leader to a great leader."

"Besides, the mobile phone business won't let you work alone, I'll find a way to match you with a helper, you give him all the specific business, and you are only responsible for making decisions?"

"Tengda's current business is so complicated, and I basically don't care much about it, and it's all developing very well."

"Just be a hands-off shopkeeper just like me."

Lin Wan took this as a joke and smiled very cooperatively: "Mr. Pei, how can I compare with you." ”

Pei Qian hurriedly raised his hand: "Don't be presumptuous, you must be better than me." ”

"In short, it's the way to grow into a good manager."

"What's more, looking at the entire Tengda Group, who else can be suitable for the mobile phone business besides you?"

Pei Qian's expression was one hundred and twenty sincere.

Lin Wan was stunned, and suddenly felt that what Mr. Pei said was reasonable.

Mr. Pei's layout has always been very large, and it is not uncommon for him to decide to enter the field of mobile phones.

At present, Tengda's funds want to raise a mobile phone department, and it will not be completely unaffordable.

After all, depending on what Mr. Pei meant, this mobile phone department is going to develop slowly, and he doesn't plan to eat a fat man in one bite.

One thing to say, Lin Wan is really the most suitable person in Tengda Group to take over this mobile phone department.

Although Lin Wan doesn't know the inside story of the mobile phone industry, others don't know either!

Mr. Pei can indeed spend a lot of money to poach people from other companies, but this kind of poached executives are very unreliable, and loyalty is very problematic.

Even if the executive is loyal, it's hard to guarantee that he will be able to grasp the Tengda spirit well.

Among all Tengda's old employees, Lin Wan is indeed the most involved in the mobile phone business, after all, Shenhua Group started in the mobile phone and communication business.

As the saying goes, I have never eaten pork and seen pigs go, even if Lin Wan doesn't know much about the mobile phone industry, she is more suitable for this job than other Tengda old employees.

Lin Wan hesitated: "Okay, Mr. Pei, I'll think about this matter." However, in the meantime, you should continue to look for other people who are more suitable, and it is better to find someone who is more suitable than me. ”

Pei Qian nodded: "Okay." ”

Lin Wan's attitude has been significantly loosened, and it is only a matter of time before she agrees.

Pei Qian pondered, when the time comes, she will find an industry insider who knows a little bit about the mobile phone business from the outside to help her, and this combination will probably make the mobile phone business cold!

It's just who to find to help Lin Wan......

This has to be considered in the long run.

If you find someone with a particularly strong ability and take Lin Wan away, it will be a big deal.

"Then, Mr. Pei, I called Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin over, and you briefly explained to them the general direction of the horror game?" Lin Wan asked.

Pei Qian hurriedly shook his head: "No." ”

"In the beginning, you should think for yourself first, I don't want to limit your thinking."

"When you have a rough idea, I'll make a few comments."

Pei Qian was already very distrustful of his existing design ideas.

What if you come up with an idea and it becomes popular for some reason?

However, it is not entirely possible to ignore it.

Pei Qian thought about it, let Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin come up with an idea first, and then "point" a wave of reverse by himself, which can ensure that this game does not make money to the greatest extent.

"Okay, you guys get busy first, and I'll come back later."

Pei Qian got up and left.
