This world is truly full of fate, it's wonderful beyond words.
After joining Xinghuo, Li Xinyu has been doing quite well.
Relying on solid drawing skills.
He was promoted to a permanent position in the second month.
Li Xinyu is quite satisfied with this job.
Just as Chen Yanqin said.
For those with the ability, Spark Games is simply paradise.
The salary is high, the benefits are good, and you can even work overtime at home occasionally without having to stay at the company. You can still enjoy overtime pay at home.
It is said that the year-end bonus is also quite substantial.
Li Xinyu had already inquired and found out that her current salary was quite extravagant compared to that of her classmates.
Every time she talks about her job and salary, it elicits gasps of surprise.
So even though she had only been with the company for a short time, she valued this job very much.
Unfortunately, the subway was out of order today, which made her late as well.
Normally, this would be fine.
Being late occasionally isn't a big deal at Xinghuo. As long as you finish your work, being a few minutes late is generally no big deal.
You will only receive a warning from the HR lady if you are more than an hour late.
However..
Not today.
Today is our monthly project progress meeting.
Originally, this conference was intended for the main creators and production team leaders.
There was no connection between him and Li Xinyu.
However, at the end of last month, because of her excellent drawing skills and high efficiency, she was promoted by the producer of "The Long Night" to be the group leader of the third art team in "The Long Night".
And today.
It was her first day as the group leader.
What's more terrifying than being late for work on your first day after being promoted is today's meeting, which is chaired by General Manager Lin.
At this critical juncture, she encountered a subway malfunction.
I was already 10 minutes late before I even entered the company gate.
I'm really seeing this and I'm very worried.
~~~
Spark Games, 8th floor.
As soon as the elevator arrived, Li Xinyu ran to the front desk.
Because she arrived late, she didn't know where today's meeting was.
"Xinyu? You really are something. This time it's the large conference room on the sixth floor. Hurry up, President Lin just got on the elevator. If you run down the stairs, there's still hope."
Li Xinyu is not very good at socializing.
But the girl at the front desk seemed to remember this quiet and reserved girl.
The two met through a very insignificant little incident.
She was going to the 9th floor to find someone. While waiting for the elevator, Li Xinyu, who had gone in first, held the elevator button for her. Taking this opportunity, the two chatted for a few minutes.
Just a few words.
The receptionist had a very good impression of Li Xinyu.
That's why I kindly reminded you.
Upon hearing this, Li Xinyu immediately replied, "Thank you."
"It's nothing." The receptionist, always eager to help, smiled and said, "Go on, you should make it in time."
Li Xinyu dared not delay any longer and immediately ran towards the stairs.
The receptionist is right. Because the various project teams at Spark Games communicate quite frequently, this elevator is used by many people every day.
The elevator stops at almost every floor, so if she runs fast, she might arrive early.
Being late is still being late.
But it would be much better if we arrived before President Lin.
For your own future.
Li Xinyu is really going all out.
It's fortunate that Li Xinyu was wearing a dress and flat shoes.
I jogged along, feeling as light as a swallow.
Upon reaching the 6th floor, before even reaching the main conference room, Li Xinyu heard a noisy commotion.
Hearing this voice, the girl felt much more at ease. There were people chatting in the meeting room, so the briefing hadn't started yet.
More importantly, she saw another figure ahead slowly walking towards the conference room with a bottle of soda water in hand.
Li Xinyu was now even more relieved.
If you were to ask, what would make a latecomer feel most at ease?
The answer is not the destination.
Instead, I saw another person who was late.
Li Xinyu ran to the young man's side in just a few steps.
"Are you late too? Which department are you from?"
Lin Li, holding a glass of soda, walked towards the conference room while lost in thought.
Suddenly, a cute voice came from the side.
It startled him.
"Mr. Lin!?"
~~~
When Li Xinyu followed Lin Li into the conference room, she looked like a wilted eggplant.
Fortunately.
Lin Li didn't say anything to her.
She just smiled and told her that next time, even if she was late, she shouldn't run around in the hallway, as it was dangerous.
However, that smiling expression...
Li Xinyu still felt that it had a deeper meaning.
~~~
Every month.
Spark Games holds a project conference every year.
The meeting agenda was very simple.
One day in advance, the main creative teams of each project group went to Lin Li one by one to report on their work and progress.
Lin Li only listens to this report, but doesn't offer any feedback.
And then came the next day, which is today.
At the project conference, Lin Li mainly asked questions, the project leaders answered them, and finally, a Q&A session was held.
simply put.
This can be understood as: yesterday the students submitted their homework, and today the teachers are grading it.
Because many problems are common, although assignments are submitted one by one, they are graded together.
And this meeting in May.
In addition to the regular development questions, there is an extra bonus question.
That was the Bilibili (Bilibili.com) anime-themed mobile game launch event held on May 21st.
Bilibili's "2017 High-Energy Game Fever Festival" themed press conference was a grand affair.
I found Lin Li in early April and asked him a lot of questions about the Spark press conference.
Lin Li didn't hold back either, and talked a lot about publicity and process design.
Even when the project was being initiated, Lin Li offered many suggestions.
[2017 High-Energy Game Frenzy Festival]
Just by looking at the numbers in front of the text, you can understand that Chen Rui wants to hold this festival every year and make it an annual theme.
This year.
Although Lin Li cut off a large portion of FGO's revenue in the Chinese server, it is still a huge boost for Bilibili.
More importantly, it showed Chen Rui a channel for monetizing Bilibili's traffic.
This is a path that Chen Rui failed to traverse in his previous life.
But this time, with Spark Games involved, the future is uncertain.
At this point in time, Bilibili still had a high level of enthusiasm for games.
When Chen Rui proposed the requirements for this festival, he told Lin Li that he wanted to make it a benchmark for the promotion and distribution of Chinese ACG (Anime, Comics, and Games) games.
We need to build up the brand's influence.
At a minimum, we aim to surpass CHNAJOY in the future, at least in terms of influence in the mobile game sector.
Since their ambitions are so great.
The scale of the exhibition must be substantial.
The entire "2017 High Energy Game Fever Festival" adopted a dual-channel approach, combining online and offline methods.
Offline, the venue used was the Shanghai Convention and Exhibition Center, a large indoor venue that can accommodate 5,000 people, with indoor and outdoor sections.
The interior is a press conference venue that can accommodate 3,000 people.
Outside the venue were the exhibition areas for various manufacturers.
Online, it was streamed live on Bilibili.
Chapter 197 Art Acceptance Standards
Chen Ruike put in a lot of effort to promote the "2017 High Energy Game Fever Festival".
On the one hand, all of Bilibili's own mobile games launched promotions offering gift packs for watching live streams.
Secondly, several anime-style games from major companies such as Xinghuo Games, miHoYo, NetEase, and Xishanju all have corresponding events.
Besides these older games offering gift packs...
New games that haven't been released yet will also receive corresponding pre-registration gift packs upon their release.
The lineup of exhibitors is also very strong.
Bilibili itself is going to release "Puella Magi Madoka Magica".
miHoYo is about to announce a mysterious game, but for Lin Li, it's already completely no mystery – Genshin Impact.
NetEase is heavily promoting "Seven Days of the City," which is set to launch this year, and "Onmyoji: The Tale of the Night," a game already in development and "borrowed" from FGO.
Tencent is primarily promoting "Girls' Frontline 2" and "Fairy Tail: Magic Adventure".
