This game is awesome

Gu Qingshi was a little disappointed.

She also wants to hire a chef.

Du Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, sorted out the results of Gu Qingshi and An Yan's discussion, and couldn't help but take a breath.

"Are you sure you don't want to think about it again, or I can hire a professional designer."

Gu Qingshi waved her hands quickly, "I think this is good enough!"

Du Zhi's body trembled and she held the report.

Gym, snack and cold drink room, small cafe, game area, outdoor dining area, fitness equipment warehouse, lounge, meeting room, office area...

Most of the 1,000 square meters of space is occupied, with the basement and first floor almost entirely used for rest and entertainment. The office area is only on the second and third floors, and even the office area has a tea room and a lounge.

Wow! This is the first time Du Zhi has seen an office space planned like this. It’s like an entertainment center.

Du Zhi wanted to ask again whether this arrangement was appropriate, but she met Gu Qingshi's trusting eyes and became speechless for a moment.

"Ms. Du, I think it's worth setting aside a few areas for employees to rest and have fun."

Gu Qingshi said affirmatively.

......

......

After finalizing the planning of the venue, Du Zhi invited a professional team to renovate the villa.

Everything was arranged according to Gu Qingshi. The office area was mainly divided into two departments: development and operation. The Development Department 1 and the Operation Department responsible for new games were both on the second floor, while the Development Department 2, which was responsible for the development of the professional version of "Victoria", was on the third floor.

The first floor and the basement are mainly recreational and rest areas. The first floor also has a trial area open to both outsiders and employees. The third floor is Gu Qingshi's office and a small unused area. This part is reserved for administrative departments such as administration. It is mainly Gu Qingshi and her personal secretary who has not yet been hired. After all, Fanxing does not have many employees, and personnel management is not complicated.

The rest is decoration. We need to add some game elements, such as some game graffiti, statues, figurines, and paintings, otherwise people will not know that this is a game company...

Of course, the equipment in the office area cannot be shabby, especially the computer equipment in the development department, all of which use top-notch configurations, and this item alone cost hundreds of thousands.

The overall expenditure was not cheap, but it was all paid by Gu Qingci out of his own pocket. Gu Qingshi did not ask too much, but just roughly calculated the cost and then wrote it down in a small notebook.

These will have to be repaid later.

Three days later, the villa had been completely transformed into Gu Qingshi's shape. As soon as you entered the door, you would never recognize that this was a gaming company.

At the same time, NGI's editor Lin arrived outside Beihai Villa with a confused look on his face.

Chapter 37 [Player's Heart]

"Where is this?"

Editor Lin looked at the rows of villas and the "sanatorium" listed over there in confusion.

Although there are buildings in this villa area, it is deserted and only one or two people can be seen occasionally. It is like a ghost town. Did Fanxing Studio really not pick the wrong place?

No. 404, Beihai Villa.

Editor Lin looked at the house numbers one by one and finally found number 404.

Ring the doorbell.

Ding ~ Ding ~

The studio is still under renovation, with only Gu Qingshi and An Yan being the only ones here. The studio's copywriter Bao Long and Mei Engineering's Wen Xin also just learned about the news, and they will not be back to work normally until next work week.

Gu Qingshi heard the doorbell and went downstairs to open the gate to the front yard.

Editor Lin was slightly surprised when he saw a young girl coming out. He looked at her face carefully and finally recognized her as Gu Qingshi, the owner of Fanxing Studio in the video.

"You must be Editor Lin. Please come in."

"Nice to meet you." Editor Lin and Gu Qingshi exchanged a few polite words and couldn't help asking, "Is this your home?"

"what?"

"How is that possible? This is our studio."

Editor Lin was stunned.

Whose studio is working in a villa? Are the working conditions of game companies so good now?

Gu Qingshi took Editor Lin into the first floor, introducing everything as they walked.

"This is our front desk. Turn right behind it and you'll find our second development department, which is now mainly responsible for the development of the professional version of Victoria. Of course, today is a day off, and Fanxing doesn't have the tradition of working overtime. They are all at home now."

Gu Qingshi boasted without blushing or getting nervous.

Where did these employees come from? It's just a scam. Anyway, let's pretend that we have a professional team.

Editor Lin glanced towards the Development Department's office and saw a main computer that was not yet running.

All of them are top-notch configurations, I'm really willing to spend the money!

No wonder such an excellent work as "Victoria" was created.

Editor Lin was secretly surprised, and became more and more confident in Fanxing's strength.

"Please come upstairs and talk."

Gu Qingshi took Editor Lin to the private office on the third floor.

An Yan is also here. To be precise, An Yan is the only one here these days. Gu Qingshi just comes back here for a walk after school. The school is located in a relatively remote area, so it is much more convenient to go to the studio than to go home.

"Please take a seat."

Editor Lin set up the camera equipment, and An Yan cooperated to arrange the lighting and black screen.

After all, it is a frontline interview, so some preparation is necessary.

"Are we going to start now?"

Gu Qingshi asked with a smile, not showing any nervousness at all.

Editor Lin was a little surprised. A child of this age might not be overly nervous in front of the camera, but would be more or less restrained. However, the one in front of him seemed to be used to facing the camera.

"I'm a professional game developer. Editor Lin, just ask me questions. I will avoid and correct any questions or disputes. Even if I ask something inappropriate, I will help you get back on track."

Editor Lin nearly fell to the ground.

How come he feels like an interviewee...

Click!

The camera turned on, and Editor Lin and Gu Qingshi were sitting on small sofas, asking and answering questions.

"From what I understand, before you led the development of Victoria, Star Studios had a previous game called: Industry: 1800, right?"

A very sharp question.

"There is a problem with what you said. First of all, I am not the host of "Industry: 1800". Secondly, "Industry: 1800" is not the predecessor of "Victoria". It is just an old version of "Victoria" with an old framework. We admit our past failures. After all, history in reality is not "Victoria" and cannot be rewritten casually."

Gu Qingshi crossed her fingers and looked at Editor Lin with a smile.

Editor Lin was delighted.

This person's words were really flawless. He first denied the relationship between himself and the old work, and then did not deny that his work was a direct descendant of the old work.

It not only maintained its own reputation, but also avoided the problem of "Victoria" being put online without being submitted for review.

However, Editor Lin was not looking for trouble, so he asked gently:

"From Industry 1800 to Victoria, Mr. Gu, you are very good at game development. I would like to ask if you encountered any difficulties during the development process?"

......

After a bunch of official questions and answers, Editor Lin finally got to the point: "I see that many players don't like unpopular themes like grand strategy, and they don't even understand why you insist on making a hardcore historical grand strategy game like Victoria. Are you insisting on doing it because you are sure that the market will change in the future, or are you considering something else?"

"My biggest concern is that I don't have money, so I can only develop based on the skeleton of Industry 1800."

Gu Qingshi winked playfully and smiled at Editor Lin.

Editor Lin didn't believe it at all and just treated it as a joke.

What a joke! Look at the equipment in the development department. Each one costs tens of thousands of dollars. And this villa office area is more comfortable than their NGI headquarters. Do they look like they are short of money?

Editor Lin couldn't help laughing at the cute look of the girl. "Is there really no other reason? I've also played Victoria, and I think it's not just a simulation of history, politics, and economy, but also a very restrained but passionate humanistic concern."

“Was this a motivation for you to create Victoria?”

She really became Victoria just to save money. As for the rest of the spiritual core and humanistic care...let netizens imagine it.

Life without imagination is incomplete.

Maybe if she used her imagination a little more, she could increase the sales of Victoria and make her more money.

Gu Qingshi’s ideas are so simple and plain.

Gu Qingshi smiled and did not comment, but changed the subject and said:

"I've seen so many legendary stories about heroes and adventures, and I wondered if it was possible to look at the ordinary lives of ordinary people from the perspective of the state apparatus. I remember someone asked in the comments section of the game: 'The cover is very impressive, but who is the character on it?'"

There are pictures here, which can be viewed after the updated version

Editor Lin also remembered the product cover of Victoria very clearly, and replied: "Maybe a worker and a student."

"Well, who knows? But no matter what, they all have one common identity: the people."

They are the protagonists of history. They are the people.

What do they eat? How do they entertain themselves after work? How do they raise their children? All of this is as important as the family history of any king or general.

The Bourbon dynasty’s nearly three hundred years of heritage and legality should not be more noble than a baguette on a commoner’s table. People always talk about Napoleon sweeping across the European continent; but in 1848, those soldiers lying on the barricades truly changed the world. ”

clap clap clap!

Clap clap clap!

Editor Lin couldn't help but applaud, with tears welling up in the corners of his eyes.

Even An Yan, who was debugging equipment nearby, couldn't help but stop and gently applaud Gu Qingshi.
