Chapter 266 Innovation

"Mr. Chen, turn-based games no longer have a market. Isn't making a turn-based game a bit too risky?"

After a while,

Fang Chang took a deep breath and slowly said.

Although refuting Mr. Chen might anger him, he really wanted to persuade Mr. Chen to give up on turn-based games.

A game genre that had already been eliminated by the market, no matter how well the game was made, it would be difficult for it to become popular.

"No, it's not that turn-based games have no market, but that current turn-based games are too uninteresting. As long as we make them perfect and innovate, players will definitely still like them."

"Moreover, turn-based games were once popular, which means there are still many potential players for turn-based games. They quit simply because the current turn-based games are too monotonous and boring, making them lose the desire to continue playing, which is why they quit."

"But if we just make turn-based games more interesting, boldly innovate, as long as the game becomes interesting, players will definitely return to turn-based games."

"You can imagine, if we develop a very interesting turn-based game, and then attract all the potential turn-based game players, that would also be a very large player base."

Chen Mo described the potential of turn-based games as much as possible. Although it was a bit far-fetched, it didn't matter.

It was just a reason to develop a turn-based game. It didn't matter whether Fang Chang believed it or not, since he wasn't the one planning it anyway.

Fang Chang fell silent as he listened to Mr. Chen's explanation.

Interesting,

Innovation.

Every game planner wants to make the game interesting and innovative, but it's very difficult to actually implement.

However, as a leader, he couldn't say such words in front of Mr. Chen.

Seeing Fang Chang and the others fall silent, Chen Mo knew that this matter was settled.

"Since everyone has no objections, then this game is settled. The lead planner for the game will be Wei Yan."

"Mr. Chen, I don't know much about games. I'm afraid I can't handle being the lead planner for this game. It can be given to Fang Chang and Zhao Bowen."

Wei Yan quickly spoke.

He knew his own capabilities. Letting him be the lead planner was a joke.

"No… this game can only be led by you. Fang Chang and Zhao Bowen have their own things to do."

Chen Mo shook his head directly and turned to look at Fang Chang.

"Limit Survival has just launched not long ago, and it's hard to guarantee that no problems will arise, so someone still needs to be in charge. And you are the planner of this game, so it's safest for you to be in charge."

Fang Chang listened to Mr. Chen's words and nodded in agreement.

Mr. Chen was right, it was indeed easy for problems to arise in the early stages of a game's launch.

"I understand, Mr. Chen."

Seeing Fang Chang agree, he turned to look at Zhao Bowen again.

"Although tianlong has been online for a long time, someone still needs to be in charge, so it will be you."

"Okay, Mr. Chen."

Zhao Bowen didn't have any particular thoughts. Whatever Mr. Chen asked him to do, he would do.

"Alright, the matter is settled. The project fund for this time is 20 million."

Chen Mo finally made the final decision. Investing 20 million in a turn-based game would definitely result in losing everything.

"Mr. Chen, a turn-based game doesn't need that much funding."

Fang Chang quickly spoke.

A normal turn-based game could be made for a few hundred thousand, and a more refined one would be enough with a few million.

20 million was absolutely unnecessary.

"How could it not be needed? Exquisite graphics, luxurious special effects, all cost money. And since we want to innovate, there are definitely many ideas that need to be tried, and all of these require funding."

"Alright, the project fund is temporarily set at this amount. If it's not enough, we can continue to add investment."

At the end, Chen Mo waved his hand directly.

………

Leaving the CEO's office,

Wei Yan and the other two returned to Cangxue Games with various expressions.

The three entered Wei Yan's office.

"Excuse me, what exactly does a turn-based game refer to?"

Arriving at the office,

Wei Yan finally asked the doubt in his heart.

Fang Chang and Zhao Bowen exchanged glances, a little worried. Wei Yan didn't even know what a turn-based game was, so how could he develop a game?

However, since Mr. Chen had already given the order, there was nothing they could say.

They could only explain turn-based games clearly and thoroughly to make it easier for Wei Yan to understand.

After all, the three of them were considered the highest leadership of Cangxue Games. The success or failure of the new game meant they would either prosper together or suffer together.

"Is that so?"

Listening to Fang Chang and Zhao Bowen's explanation, Wei Yan nodded in understanding.

Seeing that Wei Yan understood, Fang Chang continued to speak.

"Then let's discuss the new project. Mr. Chen asked me and Zhao Bowen to be responsible for the old projects, so we won't be able to help much."

"However, we can transfer a group of experienced employees from the two old project teams to the new project. The old employees have good experience and will be helpful for the development of the new project."

"In that case, will it not affect your old projects?"

Wei Yan was a little worried that if the new project didn't go well, and then transferring old employees caused problems with the two old projects, it would be more harm than good.

Fang Chang waved his hand indifferently upon hearing this.

"No problem, the newly recruited employees all have some basic knowledge. Arranging them into the old projects with old employees leading them is not a problem."

"That's good."

Wei Yan nodded reassuringly.

"I'll go transfer employees."

Fang Chang no longer delayed and quickly left the office. The project needed to be put into development as soon as possible, and there could be more things to discuss.

After a while,

Wei Yan sat in the conference room, looking at the many employees gathered.

These were the members who would develop the new project. He knew many of these employees, and some had even taught him some game knowledge at the time.

His gaze swept over the many employees, and he spoke faintly.

"Starting today, we are the new project team, and we are going to develop a new game."

"However, my game knowledge is limited, and I can't play much of a role in the development of the new game. So, if any of you have good ideas, you can all express your opinions. If the method is feasible, I will fully cooperate."

"This new game development is a turn-based game, but it needs innovation and new ideas. Everyone, if you have any ideas, please share them."

After speaking,

Wei Yan quietly waited for the employees to express their opinions.

But the conference room was silent, and not a single employee stood up to speak.

Wei Yan frowned when he saw this scene.

"No ideas?"
