Chapter 6: There's a mole among us!
After signing the contract, a drinking party was, of course, inevitable.
Business and drinking go hand in hand, so Zhang Yang specially booked a restaurant to treat the two of them to a good meal.
After all, this negotiation could bring his studio a considerable income.
The final budget for this game promotional CG was set at 260 million. Although the timeframe was only one week, as long as the money is there, what can't be accomplished!
Lin Lang paid a deposit first, since the company's internal working capital was already low and they needed to take time to get another loan from the bank.
Currently, Da Xia has specially opened a preferential channel for this "historical competition," making the loan approval process much more convenient.
Otherwise, Lin Lang would really be having a headache over funding. Now, things are much better. As long as the game is launched normally, the days of making a profit are just around the corner!
During the drinking session, Zhang Yang also expressed curiosity about Lin Lang's game, but after hearing that it was a game about the Three Kingdoms, he changed the subject.
He had also heard of the previous "Three Kingdoms Dress-up Simulator" game. How should I put it...
I may not understand, but I respect it.
So when I heard it was still about the Three Kingdoms period, I didn't say much.
Just get the job done, why worry about everything else?
After several rounds of drinks, everyone had had their fill and relaxed a lot under the influence of alcohol.
So Zhang Yang took the two of them to a high-end spa, saying it was his secret base.
We guarantee that the two of them will experience the treatment of royalty.
Lin Lang expressed disbelief at this.
Chen Nan repeatedly refused verbally, but his actions betrayed his words.
"Come on, call over your top-tier technicians, numbers 78, 88, and 98, and give them a good beating!"
Not long after, three technicians dressed in blue and white sailor uniforms and with innocent makeup walked in.
Don't tell me, you really shouldn't tell me.
No wonder he's a gold medalist; his technique clearly shows he's received professional training. It's much better than those who just pretend to be something they're not!
Lin Lang lay on the massage bed, enjoying a Thai massage while chatting with Zhang Yang about game CGs.
It's definitely not feasible to completely hand this matter over to them, partly because time is limited, and partly because we're not confident in their understanding of the Three Kingdoms period.
It doesn't produce the effect he wants.
Lin Lang absolutely could not accept this.
While they've made some room for price adjustments, the quality is a different story!
This game is the beginning of my promotion of the Three Kingdoms, so there can be no mistakes. I need to show the personalities of the various characters in the Three Kingdoms.
Otherwise, the game's CG would lose its meaning.
Therefore, Lin Lang plans to focus his attention on Zhang Yang during this period and keep a close eye on him.
"Brother Zhang, you know the competition is about to end, and the CG in this game is very important."
I'll be checking in from time to time, so don't think I'm being nosy!
"Hahaha, if they don't do a good job, just say so, don't hold back!"
Zhang Yang replied with a smile. It was rare for the client to supervise this kind of thing, but it wasn't that he was unwilling.
With Lin Lang in charge of the direction, things became much simpler.
Some customers don't participate at all after placing an order, and then make all sorts of demands for rework and redoing after the final product is released.
Several versions were made, but in the end, they said they wanted the first version!
This is the most disgusting person.
"Don't worry, we're definitely more skilled than other studios when it comes to ink wash painting style, at least in this area. Your satisfaction is guaranteed!"
Lin Lang nodded upon hearing this. After all, it's better to say some unpleasant things upfront to avoid wasting everyone's time if the results aren't good.
The two were chatting.
Lin Lang suddenly sensed something strange. Why was this technician taking advantage of his inattention to touch him so roughly?
"I already told you, just massage your back, don't put your hands down..."
But when he turned over and looked up, he found a familiar face in front of him, which was not the technician number 98 from before.
It was Shen Qi.
Lin Lang was having a great time chatting and didn't notice the change of personnel at all.
At this moment, Shen Qi also changed into the sailor uniform provided by the spa.
She has a classic oval face, fair and jade-like skin, and large, bright eyes beneath her crescent-shaped eyebrows, with a lively and expressive gaze.
Beneath the white pleated skirt, her two jade-like legs were slender, long, and supple, and most importantly, they were clad in white stockings.
The technician from earlier was considered a beauty among ordinary people, but she was nothing compared to Shen Qi.
At this moment, she was looking at Lin Lang with a smile, without saying a word.
"I didn't do anything..."
Lin Lang blurted out those words without thinking.
But after the initial surprise, Lin Lang quickly calmed down.
It's not like I'm doing anything shady; I just came here to relax and get a massage, and you can all testify to that!
No, Shen Qi and I are just good friends, what's there to worry about!
As for why Shen Qi came, Lin Lang instantly had an idea and turned to look at Chen Nan beside him.
Oh no! There's a mole among us!
Just as Lin Lang had expected, Chen Nan waved his hand apologetically, revealing that he was the one who had exposed the location.
After the drinking party ended, Shen Qi sent Lin Lang a text message but he didn't reply for a long time, so Shen Qi threatened him in various ways to get his address.
There was nothing he could do; he couldn't handle Shen Qi's situation. Besides, it was just a massage, what was the big deal? It was you who didn't reply to my messages first.
This doesn't count as betraying your teammates, right...?
Lin Lang: You're the one who became the traitor, and you're blaming me instead!
"Just tell me if you want a massage. I specially learned how to do it for you. Besides, this place isn't exactly a nice place."
Shen Qi spoke in a sweet voice, her hands never stopping.
You can tell from his reaction just now that Lin Lang still cares about himself, otherwise, what would he have to explain!
Lin Lang was quite at ease with him; he had been there for a while and hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary. As for why he was here...
There must be criminals leading the charge!
Thinking of this, Shen Qi glanced coldly at Zhang Yang beside her.
Zhang Yang was also startled by that look. Why did you bring your family member along when you came out for a massage?
"Haha, sister-in-law...we're just relaxing a bit..."
"What did you just call me?"
"Sister-in-law?"
"Hmm~"
This little episode passed with Zhang Yang calling out "brother and sister-in-law" repeatedly. In the next few days, Lin Lang and the others entered the final adjustment period for the game.
The game testing has been successfully completed without any errors.
After planning the subsequent route, Lin Lang arranged for Shen Qi, Chen Nan, and others to complete the final work, prepare the final version of the game, and contact the platform...
He went to Tianqi Studio to inspect the work, checking every step and strictly demanding high standards for the CG content of each general.
He even took half a day to hold a meeting with them, telling the employees about the deeds of these 25 military officers.
They strive to meet their own internal standards to the greatest extent possible.
Sure enough, with Lin Lang's explanation, the employees of Apocalypse Studio also uncovered a corner of the Three Kingdoms and grasped the content that Lin Lang requested.
Lin Lang was quite satisfied with the several game CGs he produced, but some errors occurred when he worked on the last general, Guan Yu.
