Chapter 215 It is easier for the layman to subvert the layman

After talking about some follow-up work on the game "Stupid Bird Flying First", Arthur, accompanied by Edward, came to the "Talking John Cat" which was uniquely created when he was founded in the studio and was re-made by Arthur as a game instant messaging app project team.

The development progress of John Cat and Billy Bird Fly is different. After all, Billy Bird Fly is not comparable to John Cat’s in terms of picture quality or music, and the difficulty of development.

In the game John Cat, technical position occupies the focus, and development progress and development planning are basically based on technology. The main strategy and planning have become an auxiliary.

It takes three or four months to prepare the game framework, prepare various components, prepare communication protocols and other basic functions.

So, it is not that easy to develop a mobile game that is honest and honest. After a round trip, Arthur also knew that his plan was really nothing great.

Because in the game development industry, due to the unprofessional design of products, the entire team has to do too many wrong things. After all, if the planning is written incorrectly, it will be corrected after a few words. However, technicians need to do a lot of work to correct the development and testing of technicians.

So at present, everyone in John Cat is discussing and improving it around his boss's outrageous planning plan, and Edward also devotes most of his time to this development team.

"... Fortunately, our staffing is relatively sufficient. In this project, I am also responsible for part of the work, mainly writing framework communications, and most of the remaining ones are writing components and modules. The head and deputy team leader of the development team with good technology are responsible for writing instant messaging and synchronous voice change. Everyone thinks this staffing configuration is particularly reasonable."

Edward and Arthur stood on the edge of the studio's office area, smiling and introducing Arthur to the details of the John Cat Development Team.

"Did this instant messaging idea that I temporarily changed completely change the difficulty of developing this game?" Arthur asked with a frown, looking at more employees than the studio on the other side.

"Yes, boss, the difficulty of development is no longer as simple as a mobile game, so the time may not be so fast."

"Can we build the framework well, first develop it in the game mode, and then slowly update the version and add functions?" Arthur pondered for a while and asked again.

"Yes, this is what I want to suggest to your boss. Recently, I have been studying some popular mobile games on the market. I found that it is really not that easy to succeed in a game. Sometimes the luck component is also very large. Some games have very bad codes, but they make money. Some codes are written very well. When you look at the code, you think the architecture is particularly good. You know that it is written by a particular programmer, but it may not necessarily make money.

We can first make the entire John Cat program open and modular. At that time, we can just add modules if we want to add any functions. After all, John Cat is just a game. We first put it on the market and see the response, and then decide whether to continue to increase investment. In this way, even if the response is not good, we can reduce the losses and find a way again."

Edward's eyes flashed slightly. Arthur's proposal was indeed what he wanted. It was just a mobile game. From the beginning, the stall was too big and the manpower and material resources invested too much would be a bit more costly. After all, the market response is unknown, and it is better to make steady progress step by step. This is also the conclusion that everyone came to after many meetings of their project team.

However, although they reached a consensus, what made them a headache was how to convince bosses who were imaginative and creative planning but did not know a little about technology to change their minds became the biggest trouble they had to face.

In the IT industry, the most helpless and least want to face is the project led by planning and leading by these technicians!

Not only in the eyes of managers who do not understand technology, project progress can be solved through overtime and additional people. In their eyes, the progress of a person's three-day life is the same as that of three people in a day. What makes them speechless is that they often spend a lot of money to develop a function with low priority and low output. Moreover, such managers who do not understand technology will also feel that the ability of developers is the same. They do not care about the principles of software design, as long as they complete it according to the plan...

Therefore, it is a lucky for developers to meet a leader who understands technology and respects technology. If the person in charge of a company or project is a product or a planner, it will be a lucky draw for developers!

However, now, the sad thing is that the boss not only does not understand technology, but also plans this game. They are really worried that the boss they have never met before will come to have an outsider and lead an expert, and they will be exhausted and finally make a fuss.

Arthur naturally didn't know the tricks here, but fortunately he was not the kind of stubborn and unwilling to listen to opinions. His greatest advantage was that he had self-knowledge.

He knew better than anyone else what he was good at and what he was not good at. To be honest, in addition to being able to grasp the pulse of time, mastering the general trend of the future, being able to create some texts, know some antiques, and reading more books, he really had a little understanding of other fields.

Fortunately, he was bathed in the light of wisdom for five thousand years in the Celestial Empire since he was young, and many stories of ancient sages and kings can be learned from him. People like him who have cheats can learn to employ people, delegate power, supervise, and balance. Other things will be left to their subordinates.

Since you are already at the top of the pyramid, you must learn how to control talents for your own use, rather than personally taking off the horse and charging forward. As a billionaire, you can't compete for a job with a subordinate, right?

If Arthur really only has such a small pattern, then failure is his final outcome!

"Since that's the case, then follow the plan you discussed. For the IT industry, I am an outsider, only providing creativity and ideas. How to improve and produce it is your business. I don't interfere or command it blindly. The process is not important to me. I just need to wait and see the result." Arthur smiled and patted Edward's arm, and said frankly.

Edward nodded slightly, and had a new understanding of the young boss's atmosphere and ability. This is the person who does big things. He deserves to be a billionaire if his boss is so young!

Afterwards, Arthur personally presided over a plenary meeting, first showing up in front of all the studio members to let them know whose job they are serving and let them see what their boss looks like.

Then I listened to the development progress reports of the heads of the three game development teams. In addition to Benniao Xianfei and John Cat, Fruit Swordsmen have also established projects and equipped them with personnel to start development.

To be honest, Arthur actually took a certain risk when he set up a game studio. Although he knew how big the money for mobile games was, he was an outsider who didn’t know any skills at all. Looking at those successful game companies, basically, several founders started to make a game. Later, the game made money and got investment, and they recruited people to gradually grow the company and start new projects. The personal team could grow at that time.

And it is certain that several founders will definitely be able to stand out in all aspects. The producers, technology, and testing will definitely be relatively excellent. A single game will succeed, the company will continue to grow and develop new projects.

Even if a game company developed under this situation, if the company develops faster than the current skill qualities of the founder, if the founder's skill level can keep up with the success of a new project, the probability of failure will be high. If the founder's skill level cannot be improved, the risk of failure will still be high.

Therefore, starting a business is difficult. It does not mean that you can create a successful company by spending money. What's more, you are involved in an industry that you are not familiar with, so it will be even more difficult to succeed.

As the saying goes, "Across the roads are like mountains", so if you want to succeed, Arthur can only create enough space for his subordinates to freely play, and at the same time, he must master the rudder so that the ship will not be destroyed or killed.

Of course, as a person who masters the general trend of the future, he will not be afraid of risks and difficulties, because the future is an era of subverting logic, and it is easier for laymen to subvert insiders!
