Start with a fake university

Ding Yue had never thought of establishing a game department under Feiyue Group before, because he was busy building Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, and it was impossible to take care of every one of many professional fields.

However, Ding Yue had the idea of ​​establishing a game department after opening the [Advanced Game Engine Production Technology] from the treasure chest of the university.

Ding Yue's positioning of Feiyue Group is very clear.

That is, as the company behind Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, the future business content will be closely related to Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.

For what Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences is good at and what it is good at, then Feiyue Group can carry out commercial activities to obtain profits based on related technologies or products.

Then, through the profit obtained by Feiyue Group, the money was invested in the construction and development of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.

Such a virtuous cycle of development is a major construction and development policy of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences!

The market in the gaming sector is extremely large.

Now that Ding Yue has [Advanced Game Engine Technology Production Technology], he sets his sights on the game field.

Why can Penguin Group be so big?

A large part of the reason is because the Penguin Group’s games are very gold-absorbing, but as Pei Gou said earlier, the Penguin Group’s games patronize the gold, which has played a small role in the healthy and healthy development of the domestic game market. .

"Principal Ding, what do you mean...you want to hire us, just like Tong Yihang from the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the others?"

Pei Gou asked excitedly after hearing the words.

Now in Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences, Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei have become role models for the whole school.

Because they have been recruited by Principal Ding’s Feiyue Group while they are still studying. The most important thing is that the position is not bad, and the salary and benefits are very generous. Isn’t this enviable?

In addition, Pei Gou's friend Xu Hong, who just joined the school's Feiyue Animation Studio some time ago, became an official member of Feiyue Animation Studio. The salary and benefits are simply enviable.

Principal Ding’s treatment of his subordinates is basically nothing to say. The members of Feiyue Animation Studio are even willing to stay up late for Principal Ding to work overtime to produce the animated film "Big Hero 6". .

Now these years, who would be willing to work overtime?

"Whether you can be officially hired, it depends on your ability." Ding Yue didn't plan to directly hire Pei Gou and the others to establish the Feiyue Game Department.

Because Ding Yue only learned through a campus game design competition that Peigou and the others have a little strength, but it is not yet known whether they can take on the big responsibility.

Ding Yue is going to let them try to build the game engine to see if it works. If it can, then Pei Go and the others can enter the Feiyue game department. If it doesn’t work, Ding Yue thinks it will be another two years, and then look at it. See if there are any talents in the game design profession that satisfy you.

"Hmm!"

Pei Gou nodded firmly and said: "Principal Ding, we will definitely work hard!"

"Yes, Principal Ding, we will not disappoint your expectations!" The other seven people also nodded together.

Ding!

"Congratulations to the host for successfully granting [Advanced Game Engine Production Technology] to students Pei Gou, Liu Lang, Zhang Tianming, Xu Hong, Wang Kaiwei, Peng Xing, Li Shu, Chen Yunhui."

Ding Yue took advantage of this opportunity to give the [advanced game engine production technology] in his hands to these energetic young people.

As for whether you can make a game engine of your own that is comparable to or even surpassing Unreal Engine with this, it depends on whether these young guys have worked hard enough.

"Okay, I am still very confident in you. In this way, as Pei Gou said, your next goal is to build a game engine and the school will bear the funding. As long as I can make a game that satisfies me Engine, then the school company welcomes you!"

Ding Yue saw the students so high-spirited, so he set a task for them.

It's not so much a task as a test.

If they can do it, it means that they have good abilities. If they can't do it, all the things just said are all big talk, and Ding Yue may not hire these students.

Hearing President Ding said that he would provide all the funds to lead the team to make the game engine, Pei Gou's eyes instantly glowed with excitement.

The other seven people were also quite excited, because Principal Ding gave them a chance.

Once they seize this opportunity, they may be able to become talents that are valued by Principal Ding like Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei.

After all, Tong Yihang and Liu Tiefei were formally hired by President Ding’s Feiyue Group after they had experienced robot manufacturing.

"Principal Ding, if we were to make a game engine, I am afraid that our eight-person team might...maybe...maybe..."

Suddenly, Pei Gou became a little embarrassed.

"Not enough people?"

Ding Yue asked with a smile.

Indeed, if there are only eight people, it is no problem to make a small game, but if you want to make a game engine, and it must be a very powerful game engine, it is estimated that it will be old.

After all, a great game engine, the various programs and workload involved are too big.

"Yes, not enough manpower!" Pei Gou nodded and replied.

This is what he just wanted to talk about.

There are only eight people in the team now. Even if they are exhausted, they can't make a powerful game engine.

To be a game engine is a relatively large project, and this project team needs to be sufficient.

You don’t have to have veteran game design developers, but even if they are a group of students, they have to have sufficient human resources.

"Then, is there any other game design major you can choose to join the team? If so, just go find it."

Of course Ding Yue allowed Pei Gou to expand his team.

"In addition, we need some experts in computer programming." Pei Gou said again: "Principal Ding, can I go to the Computer Department to find team members?"

"can!"

Ding Yue still agreed, but gave a special explanation: "When the time comes, I will sort out the list of your team members!"

Because Ding Yue currently only grants [Advanced Game Engine Production Technology] to Pei Gou and his eight people, if Pei Gou wants to expand the team to a dozen people, then Ding Yue will also grant the [Advanced Game Engine Production] to the remaining students Technology], because only after giving them [Advanced Game Engine Production Technology], they can produce a game engine that satisfies Ding Yue.

Seeing that Principal Ding promised so readily, Pei Gou and his friends suddenly felt that the spring of game design profession has finally arrived.

At this moment, they just want to shout in their hearts-Principal Ding is awesome!

"Then I wait for your good news!"

Ding Yue looked at Pei Gou and the others meaningfully.

Although they have given them [Advanced Game Engine Production Technology], it will definitely take some time for them to master this technology.

In addition, Pei Gou's team needs to expand. It is estimated that the work of making game engines will not start smoothly until the end of the year.

But it doesn't matter, Ding Yue can still afford to wait for two to three months.

After Pei Gou and his friends returned from Principal Ding's office, they immediately became busy.

The first is to expand his team. Pei Gou asked the friends to quickly find a few people who have professional knowledge related to making game engines.

For example, animation majors, or computer majors, all these talents are needed.

Because Pei Gou knows very well that it is not so easy for students who only rely on their own game design majors to build a powerful game engine.

Graphics rendering, scripting engine, physics engine, sound effects, computer animation, etc. are definitely not something a game design student can do.

To Pei Gou and the others, making a game engine is like building a building. It needs to be done step by step, starting with laying the foundation.

Laying the foundation is to let everyone in your team master the relevant production technology of the game engine.

At first, Pei Gou thought it would be difficult.

But after studying for a period of time, Pei Gou found that his little friends seemed to be very talented.

"You are learning to make a game engine. You are quite talented. I used to say no, no, this can hold you guys!"

Pei Gou couldn't help but said to the friends.

Liu Lang, Zhang Tianming, Xu Hong, and Wang Kaiwei also did not expect that they would learn the technical knowledge of making game engines by themselves. It was quite easy and simple, as if it was opening a door to a new world.

In addition to letting Pei Gou and the others try to make a game engine, Ding Yue also asked Feiyue Group CEO An Yujia to establish a game department in Feiyue Group.

And named this game department as Feiyue Games.

In this way, under the control of Feiyue Group, there is another branch-Feiyue Game.

However, since Feiyue Games has established a department in charge of the game field, the employees that need to be recruited are not just the game development or engine development team, but also various staff such as operations and customer service.

For these matters, Ding Yue asked An Yujia to recruit.

But the first principle of recruitment is to give priority to the students of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences.

I have to say that Ding Yue's internal circulation method has already provided some excellent students in many majors of Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences with a promising job in their sophomore year.

For example, accounting majors.

Some outstanding students majoring in accounting at Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences have begun internships in various departments of Feiyue Group.

Including Feiyue Technology, Feiyue Animation, Feiyue Logistics, Feiyue Media, etc., every industry under these Feiyue Group requires financial accounting.

When the Feiyue game is established, accounting staff is also needed. According to President Ding, An Yujia will naturally give priority to the selection of students from Wucheng University of Arts and Sciences in related majors.

This is equivalent to being eaten by your own worms and your own birds.

An Yujia is intensively preparing the Feiyue game department for Feiyue Group. Pei Gou and his friends are eagerly digging out new team members one after another and learning the technical knowledge of game engine production. It's the end of October.

The weather is a bit cold again.
