I just want players to save money, but I was made the richest man - Chapter 262
c253 Silent farewell! Master Carver’s last game
In late autumn, the weather turns cooler.
“Alas.” It was another day after get off work. Ke Jin put on his thick coat and sighed slightly.
Just walked out of the company gate.
Then he saw a graceful figure waiting at the door.
“Baby, why are you so punctual when you get off work today?”
As soon as he saw Ke Jin coming out, Yuan Qiaoqing couldn’t wait to greet him, took his arm naturally and generously, and leaned half against his side.
Ke Jin did not answer, but asked with a smile: “Why didn’t you come up directly just now? It was so cold standing at the door.”
“Hey, I don’t want to put pressure on you. I don’t want your employees to think of me terribly in their hearts and feel that I’m too tight on you and don’t give you any personal space.” Yuan Qiao showed a hint of understanding. smile.
In fact, as early as the year before last.
With Yuan Qiaoqing acting like a dowry that time, he managed everything in the company clearly, and even won over the hearts of everyone in Keyu.
Ke Jin and Yuan Qiaoqing were together.
Speaking of which, Ke Jin felt a little sorry for Yuan Qiaoqing.
He simply felt that he had reached the marriageable age, and it was really time to find a girlfriend to talk to first, and then think about marriage.
As for Yuan Qiaoqing, whether it is her sweet and lovely appearance, her wealthy family background, or her heart that supports her unconditionally.
They both look suitable to be girlfriends.
Therefore, Ke Jin nodded and agreed.
But in my heart, I don’t really like her much, it’s more about the primitive impulse when facing the opposite sex.
However, during the two-year relationship.
Yuan Qiaoqing’s lively and lovely personality is always by his side, and she is also outspoken about her relationship style.
In her own words.
‘I’ll just call you and tell you if I miss you. ’
‘If I really want to, I’ll go see you right away. ’
‘What’s so good about dressing up and being reserved? Isn’t it a happy thing to be able to make the person you like feel your love? Why do you have to turn your obviously happy longing into a quarrel because your boyfriend can’t guess your heart? ’
‘It’s better not to talk about it if it tortures both yourself and the other person’s feelings. ’
After Miss Yuan treated his feelings so openly, Ke Jin’s love for her gradually integrated into their company, and as time went by.
I became more and more attracted to this girl who was not tall but was attractive in every aspect of her body.
Even the carving master, who treats his feelings like wood, will start racking his brains to prepare something for his girlfriend to make her happy during the holidays.
But similarly, Yuan Qiaoqing will also go to great lengths to prepare gifts that the master carver likes on his birthdays and holidays.
The relationship between the two is getting better and better and more stable.
Even Yuan Wencheng, the chairman of Dongzhi Group, who has experienced too much and seen too much, is very optimistic about such a relationship and wishes the two of them can spend the rest of their lives together in the future.
For Yuan Wencheng, he has spent half his life working hard to get where he is today, just so that his precious daughter can be completely unrestrained when she gets married in the future, without having to consider any pressure, and choose the most suitable person generously.
His daughter doesn’t have to worry about marrying, and she doesn’t need to marry another famous noble.
As long as the daughter likes it and the other person also likes his daughter.
Then Yuan Wencheng would not stop this relationship. Even if the number one player did not have the status he has today, and even if Ke Jin was just an ordinary little game designer, he would not interfere in the slightest.
It’s almost time to talk about marriage.
But Yuan Qiaoqing discovered some small problems recently.
My boyfriend seems to have been unhappy recently.
She thought about it for a long time, but couldn’t figure out the reason.
Ready Player One is now the top gaming company in the world.
In personal life, my boyfriend’s parents and sister are both in good health.
Then my relationship with him was very loving and stable.
Needless to say, there is no need to say much about the economic aspect.
No matter it is Shandong Zhi Technology, the backer behind it.
He is also the number one player of his boyfriend.
In terms of economy, it can almost stand at the global T0 level.
Here comes the problem.
The company stands at the top of the global pyramid.
Emotions make others envious.
There is no need to worry about the background and economy.
Both parents are healthy and happy.
Why was the master unhappy at that moment?
This is also the reason why Yuan Qiaoqing waited at the company’s gate early without prior notice today.
She is very candid.
But she also hopes that her boyfriend can be honest with her.
If there’s something you’re not happy about, say it.
If one person bears it and two people share it, his sadness may be alleviated a lot.
“Let’s go.” Ke Jin put his arms around Yuan Qiaoqing’s waist and was about to take her to the garage.
Yuan Qiaoqing shook his head.
“Let’s take a walk. I think couples take a walk and then chat. This ordinary feeling is also very romantic.”
“Okay, it’s up to you.” Ke Jin looked at the girl with a pretty face, smiled and kissed her gently on the forehead.
The two began to walk along the street in the direction of Ke Jin’s residence.
When he was free last year, Ke Jin bought a house near the headquarters of Ready Player One. Although the location was not as noble as the expensive land in the city center.
But one is that it is close to the company.
The other is.
That area was originally planned to be a private park, but it was later abandoned due to lack of funds. Kerjin felt that the environment of the place was very good.
There is a small lake where you can boat.
Although the mountains are not close to each other, you can still see Jianglin Mountain not far away from the distance.
It can barely be regarded as being close to mountains and rivers.
And because it was originally planned as a small park, no other outsiders live here. It is very quiet and will not be disturbed, making it very suitable for retirement in the rest of your life.
After all, I am getting older and can no longer live with my parents.
Don’t talk about yourself, even Keyu has been looking for a new house recently and is preparing to move out.
Kejin said that if he really couldn’t find a suitable one, he would simply spend money to build one next to his house.
Brother and sister are now neighbors.
Keyu smiled sweetly and said that he would seriously consider this suggestion.
At this time, the two of them walked along the street cuddling together.
Since the relationship between the two has been public for a long time, even if they meet fans along the way, they will not be surprised by their relationship.
When meeting enthusiastic fans, they will also send some small gifts that they carry with them to congratulate the engraving designer and Miss Yuan on their early marriage.
Or, the two of them would comment on some newly opened stores on the street.
After walking half the distance, Yuan Qiaoqing finally couldn’t hold it any longer.
Her outspoken personality makes it the limit for her to hide her words halfway.
“Have you been unhappy recently?” She stood still, walked around to Ke Jin in two steps, and took his hands with both hands.
He looked directly at Ke Jin with clear eyes.
“Can you tell me? I think I can share some of it for you.”
“Of course, if it’s really hard to tell, you can just not say it.”
The two looked at each other speechlessly for a moment.
Jincai said helplessly.
“I always feel like I can’t hide anything from you.”
“Of course, don’t underestimate someone who is watching you every day. It’s fine if such a person is a friend, but it would be terrible if he were an enemy.”
“You are definitely not an enemy.” Ke Jin smiled slightly and reached out to rub Yuan Qiaoqing’s head.
The latter seemed to be very useful, and instead raised his head like a cat.
“Okay, I’ll tell you.”
“Actually, I have been thinking recently about whether to give up the gaming industry completely.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Qiaoqing’s eyes couldn’t help but widen, with a look of disbelief on his face.
In fact, when Yuan Qiaoqing was planning to inquire about the engraving master, he did some psychological preparation.
She even made the assumption in her mind that her boyfriend might like another girl.
Of course, the chance of this happening is less than 1%.
Who would have known that the words spoken by her boyfriend would be even more explosive than her assumptions…
Blue Star is currently the founder of the game industry, the godfather of major popular categories, and a globally renowned and unprecedented genius game designer.
just now.
Tell yourself…want to give up the gaming industry? ?
but.
The reason why Yuan Shen is the Yuan Shen who can pursue Master Ke is that she really likes Master Ke and thinks about the problem completely from his perspective.
Rather than just saying ‘No, if you quit, it will be a major blow to the entire gaming industry’, ‘Don’t be ridiculous’.
Yuan Qiaoqing wanted to stand in Ke Jin’s perspective and understand why he thought this way.
so.
“What’s going on?” Three words blurted out.
Looking at the girl with worried eyes, Ke Jin stretched out his hand to straighten her hair on the temples while explaining a few words softly.
Blue Star’s current gaming industry can be said to be completely developing in a diversified direction.
But the total number of players is gradually becoming saturated.
After all, no matter what you say.
A game is first and foremost an entertainment project.
As for entertainment projects, they can only be carried out after meeting the most basic needs of eating and drinking.
So no matter how fun the video game is.
There are still most groups in this world who cannot experience it.
Then, when the total number of players reaches an upper limit of saturation.
Releasing new games is nothing more than infighting with fellow manufacturers.
See whose game attracts players more.
This kind of involution, once you participate in it.
With the reputation accumulated by Number One Player over the past six years.
As long as a new game is released at any time, it will seriously affect the sales of other games in the current period.
And this approach will lead to further consequences.
Other game manufacturers have to look at the face of the number one player to make games.
No matter how bad it is, we can’t release the game at the same time as Ready Player One, we have to stagger the time.
Even if Ready Player One releases two games a year, one game will last two months.
That leaves only eight months for our colleagues.
This kind of excessive involution may push the entire gaming industry from the extreme of focusing on krypton in the past to the extreme of “advance consumption excitement” in the future.
That is, in order to attract players’ attention in an involution environment, they will do everything possible to present some exciting elements at the very beginning.
This approach is undoubtedly consuming the life of a game itself.
It also adds invisible pressure to every fellow game designer.
There may be some people whose works can sell 10,000 copies under normal circumstances.
But in the eye-catching era, if he didn’t bet on the early stage, he wouldn’t even be able to sell 1,000 copies.
Then the whole situation intensified, continuing a vicious cycle.
In the past, the entire environment was terrible, and there were a lot of junk games.
But the environment is different now.
There are many dedicated game designers who are working hard to create fresher and more interesting gameplay.
If their enthusiasm is dampened by the number one player, this will also make Kejin feel guilty.
To this day.
Ke Jin no longer values reputation.
In the gaming industry, he already has everything that should be available.
Kejin instinctively wants to make more contributions to the future development of Blue Star’s gaming industry.
The best conclusion I came to after thinking about it is –
I will completely withdraw from this circle and leave opportunities to the young people of the future.
The reason why I would encourage my subordinates to create boldly before was that it didn’t matter even if they failed.
In addition to giving employees experience.
We also want to lower players’ current high expectations for Ready Player One, so that we won’t say that every game released by Ready Player One must be sold.
Let them know that even Ready Player One can make bad plays.
In this way, it can give other game manufacturers a chance to breathe.
“Are you really confident? You actually preconceptionally believe that as long as you make games yourself, you will definitely suppress the sales of other peers?” After learning the reason, Yuan Qiaoqing couldn’t help but tease.
But soon, she had to admit this situation.
That’s just the way it is.
The number one player, Ke Jin.
These two symbols have been integrated into the blood of contemporary players.
The miracles these two have created in six years are enough to convince players around the world.
Now, as long as Kejin is willing to play games.
Players around the world will go crazy and buy it immediately.
Let me ask, in this general environment.
Which game manufacturer dares to stand up and compete with the number one player?
The three giants of Omega have fallen, who dares to take over?
When a game designer can reach this level.
For the designer himself, it is lucky.
There is no doubt about his value, and he will even remain famous throughout the ages.
But in terms of the development of the entire industry, it is actually unfortunate for the entire industry to live in the shadow of one person.
“Okay, what you said makes sense.”
“I can only say that he is indeed my boyfriend. While other designers are still racking their brains to think about how to make money by making games, my boyfriend has already begun to reflect on whether he should abdicate to make way for his peers. It’s awesome. Here it is, baby!”
“However, before the final end, shouldn’t we say goodbye to the players properly?”
“It’s not like you don’t know that there are so many players on the Internet who are still waiting for you to release new games every day.”
“It would be very disrespectful to disappear without saying a word. My boyfriend must not be someone who likes to escape, right?”
Facing Yuan Qiaoqing’s clear eyes, Ke Jin also nodded.
“Okay, let’s make another game.”
“The last one.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the petite figure jumping directly into his arms and hugging himself tightly.
It was as if he wanted to integrate himself into her body.
The next moment, Yuan Qiaoqing raised his head and looked at Ke Jin with a smile, and said in a coquettish voice.
“Bao, I find that I really, really like you more and more!”
“Ahem…” Even though they have been together for two years, Ke Jin still occasionally seems a little embarrassed when facing this girl who always exudes vitality and is always passionate.
But Yuan Qiaoqing doesn’t know how.
Who is Qingbao?
He is an old gangster.
The more shy Ke Jin looks, the more he wants to tease him.
He directly grabbed the carver and took advantage of the fact that the street lights were lighting up one after another in the evening, and stood still under the street lights.
Then, Yuan Qiao pointed to the ground and said loudly.
“Look, there are two shadows on the ground, right?”
“Huh…?” Ke Jin didn’t know why, but he still looked down. The shadows of the two people were very small under the street lights, and they were very close, but they could still be distinguished.
The short shadow belongs to Yuan Qiaoqing, and the one slightly taller than the short shadow belongs to him.
“This one is mine.” Yuan Qiao pointed at the short shadow and said.
Then, he moved his finger towards Ke Jin’s shadow and said in a long voice: “Where is this…”
Before Ke Jin could react.
She suddenly turned around and stood on tiptoe, lying next to Ke Jin’s ear and whispering, “This one is mine too.”
At that moment, Ke Jin’s whole body trembled slightly.
He looked at the girl in front of him who couldn’t stop smiling, held her face in his hands, and kissed her gently.

“So, this should be my last game.”
A week later.
at regular high-level meetings.
Ke Jin came up with a game design plan for the first time.
Originally, the senior executives were quite happy.
It has been two years since the last “Minecraft” was released.
Mr. Ke finally started making games again!
As a result, the next words made all the senior executives feel nervous.
The last…a game created by Mr. Ke?
Everyone looked up at Ke Jin in disbelief, wanting to say something.
But he always had a serious expression on his face.
All the words were stuck in his throat.
“Okay, relax.”
“You have now developed your abilities. Last year’s “Human Generations” sold more than 10 million copies in one year. This is also a gratifying figure.”
“I am also getting older, and my physical strength can no longer keep up with you young people.”
“So the road ahead will be left to you.”
Ke Jin saw that everyone was a little depressed, so he joked to lighten the atmosphere.
In fact, Kejin is 29 years old this year. Even if the average age of the entire company, he is considered young.
Gou Chehua is several years older than Kejin.
Qiao Yuan is also two years older than Ke Jin.
The original batch of cotton machines have become the current core top players of the number one player, but most of them are similar in age to Ke Jin and are in their prime.
Therefore, words like ‘I’m older’ and ‘I can’t keep up with my physical strength’ are purely excuses.
However, Mr. Ke refused to say the reason.
The senior officials didn’t ask any more questions.
After Kejin finishes the meeting.
Gou Chehua took the latest plan book.
With a slightly heavy heart, I opened it.
This planning book is much thinner than expected.
It is only less than twenty or thirty pages thick.
Judging from the thickness of the plan alone, there is no way it could be a big game.
And after quickly reading the entire plan.
Gou Chehua felt much more at peace inside.
The somewhat sad mood on his face slowly turned into relief.
“So that’s it…”
“I have to say that Mr. Ke’s plan is really too big.” Gou Chehua sighed with admiration in his heart, cheered up, raised the plan book in his hand and said seriously.
“Okay everyone, let’s accompany Mr. Ke all the way around, through wind and rain for so many years.”
“Now, this game is Mr. Ke’s last hope.”
“So even if this game is small in size, we must pick up the spirit of making a masterpiece and treat it well!”
“Okay!!” An energetic voice sounded in the office again.
————
This game is really small.
The size is only about 50MB.
And the planning book explains the settings very well.
Therefore, no matter how serious No. 1 Player is.
A week is enough time to get it out.
Then, just follow Mr. Ke’s instructions, don’t do any publicity, and don’t put it on the shelves for the time being.
Just submit the game itself to Mr. Ke directly.
As for Kejin, it was the first time after getting the game itself.
Close the desk door and ask Qiao Yuan not to disturb him for the next period of time.
Subsequently.
Ke Jin straightened his clothes in the mirror.
Then the live broadcast of PILIPILI was started.
After quickly filling in a title, select and click to start broadcasting.
[The first test of the new game, the humble author is asking for a trial online! 】
This account has always been used by Kejin personally. I usually visit girls who dance Dirty Dancing to supplement my nutrition, but I don’t have many fans.
However, it seems that the title of the new game has caught the attention of a small number of people.
A few minutes after the broadcast started, several curious viewers came in intermittently. As soon as they saw Kejin’s simple live broadcast room, and the classic poor color black and white letters directly above the live broadcast room, it read, ‘The anchor is a game designer, and he has just made a new game. I hope everyone can enjoy the game and try it out’
Suddenly, the barrage started making fun of him.
“Okay, okay, this is how you announce it, right?”
“This is the first time I have seen such a simple Xuanfa… One person, one chair, one camera, one computer can do it? Don’t tell me, this boss has some ideas… Wait a minute! Wait a minute, wait a minute !!”
“Oh my god! It’s so fierce. Who did I see?”
“Isn’t this my engraved treasure?”
“Damn it!! Engraving designer!??”
“Two years!! Do you know how I got here in the past two years??”
“You kid, you still know that your main job is a game designer? I thought you had forgotten it!”
“Lost! Gravograph started a live broadcast promotion game by itself? This is the first time! Am I going to witness history?”
“Hurry, hurry! Bring the new game, I can’t wait!”
The popularity of the live broadcast room surged instantly, and more and more water friends rushed into the live broadcast room crazily.
There were a lot of people talking about the barrage, but more of them were excited and hotly debated.
Ke Jin was also urged by the barrage.
This started the second live broadcast in the history of my life where I personally announced the announcement.
He opened an interface full of pixel style elements.
The title of the game also slowly emerged.
“Game Development Story”
