Blame Assignment Meeting
Chapter 12:Blame Assignment Meeting
Although the new version has always been a big push by Zhou Zhen and Xiong Kai, the new version is equally important to others.
Why?
Because this new version consumes a lot of human, material and financial resources, the design group, the art group and the assembly have not worked a lot overtime recently, and everyone has worked hard.
If the new version is successful, the revenue of the project goes up, and everyone can get the bonus, it is naturally happy; but the new version is not successful, and the revenue of the project is still deteriorating, which is equivalent to all the efforts of everyone.
Moreover, the program written, the original painting, the written design documents, basically no reuse, is equivalent to everything.
Therefore, all the people in the design group are not very good-looking, and the atmosphere between the program group and the art group is not good for the time being, but it is only because they do not know the news.
The bell is still rummaging through the design documents, as if what was happening in the project had nothing to do with him.
The new version of the thing is already enough to worry about the bear, so he is not in the mood to take care of the bell, but has been brushing the data, looking forward to the miracle.
By the time of work in the afternoon, Zhou Zhen and Xiong Kai were called away, apparently to Liu Yuxin's office.
At this time, the trend of the data is basically clear, it seems that there is no turning point, and there is no turning point.
Zhou Zhen and Xiong Kai will not necessarily be scolded, but certainly will not be praised.
After all, the entire new version is Liu Yu's new board, from the height of the company, the new version failure is Liu Yuxin's responsibility; but from Liu Yuxin's point of view, this responsibility should be Xiong.
Probably tomorrow, the new version of the matter will have to be told to the others in the project, and even if not, everyone will know that this matter can not be hidden.
The two people went for more than an hour until they did not see each other after work, and it is estimated that they were not criticized.
The bell still plays its own fine tradition, and never stays for one more minute when you leave work.
On the way back, Zhong Ming opened the official forum of the Mecha Era to see the player's evaluation of the new version.
After all, it was a project that was about to cool down, and there were not many posts in the entire forum, and several posts were activity posts by administrators, all of which were two or three weeks old and still on the first page.
However, Zhong Ming still found a few player comments, which can basically represent the player's attitude towards the new version.
"The morning login to take a look, originally on the new version is still very much looking forward to, the results on the line found, tasteless ah!"That’s an update to some of the fuck!”
"It's a good thing to come out of the new mech, but really krypton doesn't move, the guild now has a total of three or five living people, I krypton with the new mech and show it to whom?"I said, can the design team move the brain and engage in an activity such as the return of an old player to save it?”
"It feels like the game is really going to be cold, and it's even more pronounced after the updated version."
“Additional backstory?”Is this Nima funny?Who wants to see the backstory, the key is that you still write very rubbish!”
"Well, now the updated version, all of them are recharge, kryptonous activities, just put the 'I want to make money' on the face."I feel that the design team is not lost, and now the mentality is to make the last stroke to run, don't expect it, everyone back down as soon as possible."
Most of the players' comments are still more restrained, but there is only one atmosphere in the whole: disappointment!
Players were looking forward to the new version, but after seeing the new version, there was a huge psychological gap, which would further promote more players to get out of the pit.
Moreover, in order to be able to pull high income and improve profitability, the two new functions are related to kryptonite, and the cool new mech is also required to obtain krypton gold, which further stimulates the player's counter-psychological.
Now "Methium Age" has inevitably fallen into a dead circle, poor income, the design team wants to increase revenue by joining the krypton activities, and strive for more resources from the company, but krypton gold activities further discourage players, resulting in revenue fell again...
And once the trend of the player's collective retreat appears, it is like an avalanche, and it is difficult to recover.
Back home, the bell himself casually made some supper, then opened the hand-painted board, and continued to complete the original painting that was busy during the day.
In fact, many design ideas are already available, but they need to be turned into specific solutions.
...
The next day, Zhong Ming ate breakfast at home and arrived at the company on time.
There is an employee restaurant here, the price is much cheaper than eating outside the restaurant, but it is still a little expensive for the bell.So the bell honking two meals in the morning and evening or at home to do it themselves, at noon will eat in the staff restaurant.
People are coming this morning because today is Friday, and there is a regular meeting.
The regular meeting belongs to the internal regulations of the company, each company is different, and even different projects are not the same.
The routine of the "Memical Age" project in charge of Liu is divided into two sessions, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., the heads of the design group, the program group and the art group, and the head of the Liu Yuxin meeting, said some relatively macro issues; from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. is the regular meeting of various departments, each department held, mainly the department head assigned to the department task.
Friday's regular meeting is equivalent to summarizing the work of the week, everyone must submit a work report before the meeting, after which the heads of departments must also formulate a work plan for the next week, and everyone is not allowed to be late.
The morning meeting in charge was of course not a bell, so he continued to do his own thing.Xiong Kai, as the world architect, also wants to participate in the regular meeting of the person in charge, and no one is worried about the bell, which is very comfortable.
After lunch, the meeting was not over.
Last night plus this morning, the bell almost finished what to draw, the other content is almost planned, look up at the table, 12:10, just get up to go to the staff restaurant for lunch.
After lunch, it was not until about 1:50 that the door of the conference room opened, and the people in charge came out.
It can be seen that these people do not look very good one by one, may not all be the reason for the scolding, but also part of the reason is hunger.
At 2 o'clock, the department's regular meeting will be held, and these responsible people can only continue to be hungry.Like Xiong Cai this do not like to eat breakfast is even worse, feel hungry face are green, but he also dare not say anything, after all, the new version of the failure of this thing counts, his pot is not small.
The other members of the project knew that the responsible people looked like this, and the new version certainly did not work!
In fact, before everyone can also feel this cool atmosphere from the game and the forum, but now the data is out, which is the last glimmer of hope and quenched.
Needless to say, the regular meeting in charge must have become a sub-pot conference, that is, I do not know what the afternoon departments will become.
