Chapter 10 The Chi Xing Studio

The next day at 10 AM, Pei Qian arrived at the newly established Shenhua Games department office location, following the location sent by Lin Chang.

This was another office building owned by Shenhua Real Estate. It looked equally magnificent and grand. Although it was slightly inferior to Shenhua Haojing, it was still comparable.

Shenhua Real Estate didn't have many projects in second-tier cities like Jingzhou, but the quality was excellent.

Since it was an office building prepared for Lin Wan, all conditions were certainly top-notch.

It was said to be Shenhua's game department, but strictly speaking, it should be a game company jointly funded by Shenhua Group and Tengda Group, so the specific name had not yet been determined.

However, names were just minor details; the key was the company's goal.

The explanation for Lin Wan was that this company was to further train her and improve her abilities.

For Lin Chang, this company would allow Lin Wan to return to inherit the family business sooner, while also expanding Shenhua Group's territory.

As for Pei Qian, he hoped to use this opportunity to gradually get rid of Lin Wan, as well as the relationship with Shenhua Group, so that he could earn less money.

So, in reality, for Lin Chang and Pei Qian, whether this company made money or not was secondary. They could accept it as long as it didn't lose too much.

Moreover, even if it lost a lot, as long as it gained a good reputation, it would be perfectly acceptable.

Pei Qian was also considering this new game with this in mind.

Lin Chang was already waiting downstairs and took Pei Qian to the new company's office. However, after seeing the work environment, Pei Qian was subconsciously stunned.

It was almost exactly the same layout as Tengda Games!

The distance between the desks, the layout of the water bar and entertainment room, and all kinds of office furniture were almost no different from Tengda Games!

Even the computers were ROF machines, and the logo on them was all too familiar.

Pei Qian casually glanced around and found that the entire office space was very large, with at least hundreds of workstations, all equipped with ROF computers…

What a huge order this was!

Pei Qian was a little confused, "This…"

Lin Chang smiled and explained, "President Pei, does it feel familiar?"

"I was mainly worried that A Wan wouldn't adapt to the new work environment, so I did a little homework and arranged everything according to the office environment of Tengda Games and Shang Yang Games."

"I heard that this kind of environment is also conducive to improving work efficiency? It looks pretty good."

"I'll have Shenhua Real Estate's branch in Jingzhou equip all of its offices according to this standard in the future."

Pei Qian: "…"

Soon, everyone was present.

In addition to Pei Qian, Lin Wan, and Lin Chang, there were several other employees.

There was a lot of preliminary preparation work for the company, and Lin Wan couldn't possibly handle it all by herself. Moreover, she didn't need to spend all her energy on these trivial matters.

Therefore, Lin Chang had prepared a whole team for her, including administration, human resources, finance, and other personnel.

Of course, in addition to these personnel, the entire game development team would be personally screened, interviewed, and supervised by Lin Wan.

Lin Chang first briefly assigned tasks to the heads of administration, human resources, and finance, telling them the focus of their work in the near future, and then dismissed them.

Only Pei Qian, Lin Chang, and Lin Wan were left in the conference room, ready to start discussing serious matters.

Lin Chang poured tea, "Now there are no outsiders, let's chat casually."

"Actually, this time we're just confirming three things. The first is to give this company, or rather studio, a nice-sounding name. The second is to finalize the general direction of the first project to be developed, as President Pei said before. The third is to determine the approximate investment based on the situation of this project."

"I'm not good at naming things, you two decide."

Lin Chang drank tea, like an outsider.

He really didn't need to care, because this game department was not intended to make money anyway; it was entirely for Lin Wan to practice with.

When Lin Chang first returned, the old man didn't let him take over Shenhua's entertainment industry directly, but gave him some money to practice with first. For Shenhua, the family was big and the business was vast, so it didn't matter if Lin Wan lost it all.

Lin Wan was silent for a moment, "I'm also powerless to name…"

Pei Qian sighed softly. Well, it seemed that he, the naming genius, had to do it himself.

He considered it slightly and said, "I think 'Chi Xing Studio' would be good."

Lin Chang drank his tea and savored it carefully.

"Chi Xing Studio, Chi Xing…"

"Moving forward slowly, implying that this studio should move forward step by step. It can go very slowly, but it must go steadily enough. It can't be eager for quick success, it can't be delusional about reaching the sky in one step, it must be down-to-earth, and it must be humble and prudent."

"Okay, the meaning is very good!"

"A Wan, this should also be a kind of wish from President Pei for you. You must also be humble and prudent, and be down-to-earth."

Lin Wan nodded, "Yes, I understand!"

Pei Qian silently took a sip of tea, smiling without saying a word.

In fact, "Chi Xing" in another way of saying it is "Wan Zou," which is hoping that Lin Wan can leave quickly, but it's said a little more obscurely, not so straightforward.

As for how Lin Wan and Lin Chang would understand it, that had nothing to do with Pei Qian.

Lin Chang continued, "Okay, then the name of the studio is set, it will be called Chi Xing Studio."

"Next is the question of what Chi Xing Studio's first game project will specifically do."

"President Pei, you said you already had a general idea?"

Pei Qian wasn't flustered at all. After taking a sip of tea, he said, "I do have some ideas, but before that, I'd like to hear your opinions."

Lin Chang nodded, "Okay, then I'll talk about my views first."

"This is what I think: Although A Wan has already had some successful experience at Shang Yang Games, after all, she has changed her environment and changed a group of colleagues. The entire new research and development team still needs to run-in a lot. If they challenge a particularly difficult project right away, the probability of failure is relatively high."

"The issue of money is secondary. The main thing is that it's more likely to hurt their confidence."

"So I think, it's better to choose some previously successful projects, continue the experience of these projects, and make a similar game, doing some micro-innovations."

"This project is mainly for the team to run-in. After the team has run-in well, it's not too late to challenge some more difficult projects."

"A Wan, what do you think?"

Lin Wan thought for a while, "Yes, I agree too."

"After all, President Pei will also be contributing half of the investment this time, and in the development process of the project, I may have to trouble the colleagues at Shang Yang Games to help a lot…"

"If the project fails, the team will have run-in, but it will make me feel very sorry to see everyone's efforts go to waste."

"So, I think it's better to start from easy to difficult. We can consider making a mobile game first to practice, and run-in the team. After this project is successful, we can consider more long-term goals."

"This also fits President Pei's expectations for 'Chi Xing Studio'. After all, 'Chi Xing,' you have to move forward step by step, slowly, and you can't think about biting off more than you can chew."

Pei Qian raised his eyebrows slightly.

That's not what Chi Xing means. Don't misinterpret it for me!

If they really follow these siblings' ideas and make a mobile game first, and then put it on the Shenhua app store, is there even a slight possibility that this project will lose money?

Absolutely not!

Pei Qian coughed lightly, "'Chi Xing' is not interpreted that way."

"There's a saying: Dare to hypothesize, carefully verify. When setting goals, you must have a long-term vision. The road must be walked step by step, but if you only care about your feet and have no foresight, you will still take detours."

"You already have enough mobile game development experience. Making a few more mobile games is just repeating what you've already done many times. What's the point?"

"Daring to break through is the only way to make progress."

"Think about it carefully, which of the previous successful projects was successful by 'seeking stability'?"

Lin Wan was stunned for a moment, then a slightly ashamed expression appeared on her face.
