Chapter 54 Deliberately earning the store manager's money!
Currently, everyone's evaluation of these characters is: it's very cute, with obvious characteristics, but I don't know what kind of monsters and monsters are all...
As Chen Mo expected, this was apart from the plot and looking at the characters, and only then would there be a ghost if you could see things.
Chen Mo asked: "Goldfish, if you were asked to complete the original paintings of these characters, including refinement and coloring, how long would it take? It doesn't need to be too fine, just follow my line draft."
Su Jinyu thought for a moment: "Well... these cards are not too complicated, and it should be almost done in four or five days."
Chen Mo shook his head: "Three days."
"Ah?" Su Jinyu hesitated, "Three days is not impossible, but the quality must be worse."
Chen Mo said: "It doesn't matter. Such a big card is still on your phone. It doesn't matter if the finer is worse. It's okay to have a slightly lower quality. You can slowly optimize it in the future. Now you just spread the amount first."
Su Jinyu nodded in embarrassment: "Okay, then I'll try it."
Wen Lingwei said: "If it is to refine and color these things, I can do it too."
Chen Mo was stunned: "Are you sure? These are formal game resources, and at least they must not find any faults for players."
Jia Peng reminded: "The store manager, the senior sister is also a serious art student, and she usually takes on the job of original paintings."
Chen Mo suddenly realized, yes, Wen Lingwei and Jia Peng are all from the school’s propaganda department. The propaganda department usually needs to draw posters and make display boards. If you don’t have the ability to hand-draw and image processing, can you become the minister, and will you?
"Okay, it's just right for you to draw together, which can save a lot of time." Chen Mo said.
Wen Lingwei showed a meaningful smile: "Then how much do you plan to open for me by store manager? My original painting costs 5,000 yuan, and it is still a friendly price."
Chen Mo: "...I can't tell you that you are still a big touch?"
Painters of different levels of card original paintings have much different prices, including eight or nine hundred, nine thousand, and even more expensive ones.
Of course, this thing is what you pay for. There must be differences in composition, light and shadow, color, etc. when drawing things from a good painter and an ordinary painter.
For example, a card like Wen Lingwei, it costs 5,000 yuan or a friendship price. This is already a level that only a well-known painter can have.
Chen Mo said: "But don't your friendship price of 5,000 yuan still have to be designed, composed, and communicate with the demand party? I already have this line draft, and the size is several times smaller than the original painting you usually draw. Just refine and color it, and give you two thousand, okay?"
Wen Lingwei: "Stingy."
Chen Mo: "..."
Wen Lingwei said, "Okay, for your poor sake, one is 2,000 yuan per picture, every three days. However, Jinyu and I are only two of us, don't be too slow."
Chen Mo looked at Jia Peng and Chang Xiuya: "If you want to draw, you can do it..."
Jia Peng waved his hand quickly: "We are not as high as our senior sister. At most, we will help you draw some ordinary monster cards. Don't hand over the protagonist card to us."
Chen Mo nodded: "That's fine. You have to draw a monster card later. You can share some of it. I'll give it to you according to the market price."
Jia Peng waved his hand: "It's okay, money doesn't matter, just look at the store manager."
Wen Lingwei raised her eyebrows: "How can that be! The store manager is rich now. "Plant vs. Zombies" earns him two million every month, right? It won't be that there are a few thousand yuan apart."
Jia Peng nodded: "Yes. OK, just follow the market price."
Chen Mo: "..."
Wen Lingwei said, "Also, how do you and Jinyu calculate money? Don't say that because she is your assistant, I won't pay."
Chen Mo said: "Like you, there are two thousand cards per card!"
Wen Lingwei nodded with satisfaction: "Well, this is almost the same."
Su Jinyu originally wanted to say that he didn't want money, but he thought about it again, why can't he get along with the money, so he accepted it happily.
Chen Mo was speechless. These people were really trying their best to make money from the store manager!
Chen Mo roughly divided these cards.
Su Jinyu and Wen Lingwei have high painting skills and are fully qualified to draw the protagonist card. Moreover, it is more convenient for Chen Mo to communicate with them, so Chen Mo plans to hand over the most important protagonist card to them.
There were several other students who could draw monster cards, and Chen Mo also reserved some shares for them.
At the rate of 3 days, it took Wen Lingwei and Su Jinyu to draw all 36 protagonist cards for 54 days, which is obviously too slow, not to mention that this is only part of the cards, and the total number of cards is more than 300!
This is different from the time when "Plant vs. Zombies". Many zombies can be reused in plants and zombies, and it is very simple to draw plants. However, card games, cards are almost the main body of the game. Players will not pay if they are ugly. Chen Mo dare not make do with this.
Therefore, if you want to compress this time, you can only find art outsourcing.
Chen Mo said to Wen Lingwei and Su Jinyu: "Do you have any art outsourcing companies you know? The more reliable ones."
Wen Lingwei thought for a while: "I know a family, and there are a few friends who are painters inside, and their level is OK."
Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, give me the contact information. By the way, do you know the animation production company?"
Wen Lingwei and Su Jinyu both shook their heads: "I know a few families, but I don't have any acquaintances."
Chen Mo said, "Okay, then that's it. You guys first get the few protagonist cards I just picked out."
Chen Mo turned around and stood.
Su Jinyu said: "Wait, store manager, what type of game we will do in the next game? Do you need so many original cards?"
Chen Mo said: "Don't worry, you'll know in a few days."
...
Back on the second floor, Chen Mo was already a little sleepy, it seemed to be a side effect of the super accelerator.
According to the contact information given by Wen Lingwei, Chen Mo found the person in charge of the art outsourcing company and then discussed the needs.
Chen Mo provides line drafts, which can save the cost of the process of styling and drawing line drafts, and the time can be shortened accordingly.
In the end, Chen Mo agreed on the price to be 2,200 yuan per protagonist card and 600 yuan per monster card.
Monster cards can be drawn more casually, so the price has dropped significantly.
After estimating this, Chen Mo spent about 36×3×2200+200×600=3576 million, 350,000.
Of course, some of the monsters can be reused at will, but no matter how hard they are, they cannot be suppressed to less than 300,000.
There is a lot of money, but Chen Mo doesn't feel hurt either. The money is really too heavy to be suppressed. Chen Mo is already quite satisfied with the ability to buy this complete set of card resources for 350,000 yuan.
Among them, Chen Mo handed over the seven key cards of Ai Mu Tear, Silly Man, Dare Thief, Bad Man, Bad Man, Miss, President, and Big Sister to Wen Lingwei and Su Jinyu. It would take one month to complete them at a rate of 3 days.
Su Jinyu also has to be responsible for game design, so Chen Mo cannot let her draw cards all the time.
In addition, Chen Mo also even made some monster cards to Jia Peng and others, all of which were calculated based on the market price.
