Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

As the "children" grew older, Lin Li could only focus his energy on Spark's core projects.

To use an inappropriate analogy.

The current spark is Lin Li leading a dozen or so children.

Most people definitely couldn't manage a dozen or so children, but Lin Li was alright and could still keep an eye on them.

But these dozen or so children got married and had children.

By the time it comes to his grandchildren, Lin Li will definitely be too busy to take care of them.

Even if he has a vision for the future, it won't work.

This is a place beyond human reach.

The children, of course, knew about this as well.

Hai Mao, Chen Anyu, Song Shiyu, and a large number of other leaders of Xinghuo Studio.

Starting from the Spark platform.

They had already started planning new projects, but when they actually got started and began working on the proposals, the pain they felt was much greater than that of working in an outside studio.

Chapter Thirty-Six: Has President Lin Become an Auctioneer?

I've never seen how Lin Li's projects are approved.

I didn't feel anything at all.

But they were different; they had all been taught by Lin Li personally at least once.

The feeling of having a perfect answer sheet right in front of you, but just not being able to answer it, is incredibly frustrating.

at this time.

Lin Li suddenly said that he had a new project in hand.

It is no different from that.

An answer key was attached to the summer homework.

It's like a piece of meat falling into a pack of wolves.

Normally, they wouldn't have any ulterior motives regarding such new projects.

After all, normally, this involves setting up a new studio to handle new projects.

However, when Li Mingxuan expressed his desire for the project, and Lin Li did not immediately refuse, it wasn't just Li Mingxuan whose heart was pounding.

People in other studios were also feeling their hearts pounding.

Especially for small studios like Hu Qing's and Li Tan's "Girls' Frontline: Companions" studio, which were previously independent, their development was inherently insufficient, and they desperately needed a big project.

At the same time, who doesn't know the value of Lin Li's proposal?

Ever since.

This created a rather awkward situation in the elevator.

"Hey, Lao Li, you're going to report to General Manager Lin too?"

"Report together, report together."

"Hey Chen, you haven't even logged on to 'Life Imprisonment and Lost Path' yet, and you're here to report on work?"

"Hey, you can't say that. It's always good to report on your work more often."

Several bigwigs from Spark.

Friends who usually drink together are now full of subtle thoughts and feelings for each other.

Instead, Hai Mao sighed as he entered the elevator.

"Oh no, there are so many people. Oh no, there are too many people. I guess I have no chance. Why do you all want to get this project?"

"Brother Cat, that's the question I should be asking you."

Hu Qing pointed at Li Tan and said with a smile.

“Our studio doesn’t have any big projects to support it. Last time we were drinking, you said you’d help us out.”

Hai Mao, on the other hand, wasn't embarrassed at all. He laughed and scratched his head.

"It's not that we lack this project. To be honest, I actually want to rethink our approach. In the past, Mr. Lin led us to initiate projects. Now that I've taken charge myself, I feel there are quite a few problems."

"That's great, Brother Cat. Let's form an alliance. If I win this project, all your people can come and learn together."

Hu Qing was just saying it casually, but Hai Mao nodded and said, "Okay."

The preparation time for initiating a new project is very long.

Not everyone can conjure up a project like Lin Li does.

From initial market research and brainstorming to project approval and core gameplay, each step requires time to refine.

Ever since Arknights was successfully launched, Hai Mao has been thinking about his next project, or rather, he's been thinking about it.

When I have free time, I've started trying to write my own proposals and make development plans.

Many people have had this experience.

It looks easy to understand, but it's impossible to do it properly.

When Arknights was first conceived, it was completed smoothly thanks to Lin Li's guidance.

This once made Hai Mao believe that he still had talent.

When I actually tried it myself, I was completely useless.

Hearing that President Lin had a new project today, Hai Mao hurriedly came running over again.

Competing for projects was secondary; his real purpose was to carefully observe a project starting from scratch.

Consider this a review.

Therefore, it was only after Hu Qingyi said that he thought of it.

Indeed, you don't need to secure projects yourself to review project approvals.

Moreover, based on his understanding of Lin Li...

It's unlikely that this kind of project will land in his studio, since they already have Arknights.

~~~

A group of people rushed into the rows of offices.

Lin Li saw this situation.

His face was expressionless, but he was quite emotional and even a little happy inside.

Whether it's something to say or not, under his leadership...

These guys are pretty ambitious.

Originally, Lin Li really didn't want to build another studio.

On the one hand, there are indeed quite a few studios nowadays.

Secondly, the experience of resetting the studio made him realize something.

In Shanghai, the current pool of game talent is already insufficient.

This is why large companies choose to establish branches around the world.

Because the human resources in a place are limited.

You can either wait, like in Shanghai, where the number of talented people in the gaming industry increases over time.

If you can't wait, you'll have to build a branch.

The capital city, Suzhou, Hangzhou, Chongqing, and Chengdu all have relatively mature game talent pools, which is why Lin Li considered setting up separate remastering studios.

If we go against the grain, like when ByteDance entered the gaming industry, it will directly drive up wages across the entire sector.

Do you dare not raise prices?

If prices don't rise, they'll be poached by ByteDance.

As a result, gaming giants accelerated their campus strategy deployments in those years.

Later, at the end of 23, ByteDance suddenly disbanded its entire gaming division, resulting in a sudden surge of talent in the industry.

This has led to a reduction in wages across the entire industry.

Therefore, when it comes to talent, you either cultivate it yourself, or you can only wait.

However, training also takes time.

Therefore, Lin Li did consider giving "Heroes: Song of the Saintess" to the existing studio.

The only thing he hadn't considered.

That's why the various studios are so proactive.

~~~

Lin Li was surprised by everyone's enthusiasm, and Li Mingxuan was even more surprised. What's going on? How come there are more and more people?

Seeing that more and more people were gathering behind him, Li Mingxuan became a little anxious.

Heroes of Might and Magic was my first love! It's not yours, so why are you all trying to take it?

"President Lin, I am willing to pledge my life to make the Holy Maiden's Song a success, and the revenue in the first month will definitely exceed 50 million."

He had barely finished speaking when

Hu Qing quickly stepped forward as well.

"President Lin! I'm also willing to make a pledge: the revenue will exceed 100 million in the first month!!"

"Me! The turnover has exceeded 1.5 million."

An office was about to be turned into an auction house.

Lin Li quickly shook his head.

"We don't live in a perfect world, we don't believe in that kind of thinking."

As soon as Lin Li spoke, the entire scene fell silent.

"Okay, I'll give you a month. You can write down your project plans first. If you want to start a new project, what will you do with the old ones?"

"Where will the manpower for the new project come from? Let me tell you, if it's hard to recruit people in Shanghai, we may have to go to other places."

"Finally, Li Mingxuan, if you really want to get this project, you should first get the remastered version of Heroes of Might and Magic III done."

After a few words, the matter was settled.

"Yes!"

Although he didn't win on the spot, Li Mingxuan was just as excited as if he had won immediately.

Excited heart, trembling hands.

Mr. Lin's words mean he has a chance!

Chapter Thirty-Seven: Penguin Extravaganza

In those few seconds, Li Mingxuan's heart was pounding even harder than when he was chasing his goddess back then. He was going all out this time, in case Heroes of Might and Magic 3 Remastered became a hit.

Can anyone else compete with him?

"Heroes: Song of the Saintess" is a mobile game developed by Spark Games in the anime/manga/game genre.

"Wait a minute, is Mr. Lin just making empty promises to me...?"

It wasn't until long after I left home.

Li Mingxuan suddenly sensed that something was wrong...
