Almighty Game Designer

Chapter 41 Interview

Together, all these requirements, Chen Wants to find someone like this:

Young, with the potential to dig.

Competencies are comprehensive enough to accommodate the work of assistants.

Have a basic understanding of the game.

The character is reliable and trustworthy.

According to this criterion, Chen Jiao screened all resumes sent today.

The results are deplorable.

No one meets the requirements of Chan.

Of course, Chen Qiao was already prepared for this result. He was demanding, and only on the first day, he didn't have to rush.

……

Three days later.

At 10 a.m., the experience shop opened normally, and Chen Jiao continued to write the new version of the design document for "Botanical Wars Zombies" on his laptop at the reception desk.

Several of the major features this time are relatively simple, they all depend on the original framework, and the rules are clear, so they are very smooth to write, and there is not much to consider over and over again.

The big framework is pretty much in place, and the next step will be to refine the documentation and production.

During these three days, Chen Yue received many resumes of candidates and arranged four or five interviews, but was not satisfied with the results and did not find the assistant and receptionist he wanted.

The few people who came to the interview were either almost spiritual, or they were too careful to think clearly, all had their own problems, and Chen Qiao was not satisfied.

After all, there is still a difference between résumés and real interviews, where words and deeds, words and deeds, and some details can also reflect something.

Chen Jiao's criterion is that he will not consider anything else unless he is particularly satisfied.

He definitely won't fit.

“Hello, I'm here for an interview.” A voice said.

Chen Qiao looked up, there was a girl outside the door, about 23 years old, short hair Liu Hai, very cute looking, with a smile from the heart on her face, very infectious.

“Oh, hello, come in. ”

Chen Qiao stood up and took his long printed resume from the side.

Chen Jiao took the girl to the conference room and poured a glass of water.

Su Jinyu, 23 years old, is a senior student studying fine arts at a well-known key university in Didu. During the school year, he won various rewards, and his resume is about to be written down.

However, Chen Qiao roughly concluded that Su Jinyu was not a strong backbone of the community like Wen Lingwei, but a model of bias. All the rewards on my resume are basically the kind of hard work that no one else wants to do.

In other words, she's not one of those speculative camp-type students. Instead, she's more capable of working.

So far, Chen Yu has a good impression of Su Jianyu.

“I've read your resume and understand the basics. The interview is just a casual chat, don't be nervous.” Chen Jiao said.

Su Jianyu nodded. “Hmm! ”

Chen Yu felt overwhelmed and Su Jianyu had no nervousness at all. She should have seen more of this in school. Or maybe she was born with a bigger heart.

“You can write on your resume, receptionist and assistant. Why?” Chen Qiao asked.

Su Jianyu said: "Ah, because I think if I can't be an assistant, I can be a receptionist. I think I can learn something from being a receptionist. ”

This is a very pragmatic answer, Chan Jiao can tell that Su Jinyu's posture is relatively low, probably because she tried to be a game designer before but did not succeed.

“Why do art professionals choose to be game designers instead of painters? I have seen your hand paintings and they are very good at being an original painter.” Chen Qiao asked.

Su Jinyu replied: "Well... on the one hand, it's because being a designer can bring my painting skills to life, and on the other hand, I think that game designers are a more creative profession. ”

“However, you have also tried to develop independent games and have never been a designer," said Chan. Do you think you're talented enough? ”

Su Jinyu said: "Well, maybe my talent isn't very high, but I won't give up! ”

Chen Jiao nodded and continued to ask the following question: “What do you think is the most important quality of a game designer? ”

Su Jan's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled. Obviously, this was a relatively spacious issue and she needed to think about it for a while.

“Well, I think the most important qualities of a game designer are adherence to their beliefs.” Su Jinyu replied.

Chen Qiao stunned: “Faith? ”

Su Jinyu explained: "Ah, don't get me wrong, it's not the traditional belief. I mean, game designers should always stick to their heart and make games that impress the player, bringing them joy and inspiration. ”

Chen Qiao thought about it and asked: "If you had a chance to make a bad reputation but make money, would you do it? ”

Su Jinyu was somewhat confused: “Bad reputation, why make money? ”

"It's just a hypothesis," said Chan. ”

Su Jianyu thought about it: “Well... I don't know. All I can say is, if this game makes me think it's a bad game, I won't do it even if I make more money. ”

Chen Qiao continued: “What if I was to make a game like this? ”

Su Jianyu stunned: "Ah? You're a Plant Wars Zombie designer. How can you ignore the word of mouth for money when you can make a game like this? ”

"To be honest, I'm likely to develop some profitable but poorly acclaimed games in the future, and if you can't accept that, we can't work together. ”

Su Jan's eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, obviously this choice made her a little confused.

Thinking for a moment, Su Jinyu said, “I don't think it's possible for you to change your mind. To be honest, I love the Botanical Wars Zombie game, and I think you can develop a game like this, and it must be a talented designer who can learn a lot from being your assistant. ”

“I was a relatively stupid person and I wanted to be a game designer myself, but I didn't succeed, so I wanted to start with my assistant and learn. ”

“Do you think that's okay, I'll do the front desk, but you can also let me do some assistant work, and if I encounter a game I don't like, I can choose not to do it. ”

Su Jianyu's attitude was sincere, neither giving up his insistence nor attempting to influence Chen stranger's ideas.

If she is an assistant, then Su Jianyu must obey Chan's orders completely in game design. Even if Chan Qiao asks her to play a game she doesn't like, she must do it. This is the professional training of an assistant game designer.

So Su Jinyu wanted to be a receptionist and also an assistant. That is a relatively compromise approach.

Chen Qiao thought about it for a second.

Su Jinyu is his most satisfied candidate to date, most importantly, Su Jinyu has a natural love for games, and she is a person full of positive energy, positive attitude and very able to infect others. It should be very pleasant to work with such a person.

However, what worries Chen Qiao more is that Su Jinyu and his philosophy do not fully fit together.

Clearly, Su Jinyu was a person who had to "stand and earn money", while Chen was different.

The gaming industry is very dangerous, in front of Chen stranger, there are huge things such as the Emperor dynasty mutual entertainment and Zen mutual entertainment, and countless later people in the tiger sight, want to be the only winner in this environment, the few boutique games in previous life is not enough.

Chen Jiao needs a lot of money to develop a big boutique game, so his only goal now is to make more money, and it doesn't matter if he sacrifices some reputation for the time being.

This is bound to conflict with Su Jinyu's philosophy.

Chen Qiao thought about it and said: "Well, you can always be a receptionist and a part-time assistant here until you graduate. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can leave anytime you want. If you want to stay when you graduate, we'll sign a formal contract, okay? ”
