239: Chapter 239 Picking up the car again

When he returned to the company, it was already past two in the afternoon. Chen Fan didn't go back to his office; instead, he went straight to Zhang Tao and the others.

"Zhang Tao, call Sun Zheyuan and Liu Yuan. We're having a meeting in the conference room."

A few minutes later, in the conference room, the projector screen was lit up. Sun Zheyuan sat in front of the computer and opened a PowerPoint presentation.

"General Manager Chen, this is the proposal for 'Fanti · Nuannuan'." Sun Zheyuan said, pressing the page-turner button.

The first page appeared on the projector screen, with the title "Core Gameplay."

Sun Zheyuan began his presentation, covering everything from the core gameplay to the system architecture and the world-building settings.

After Sun Zheyuan finished speaking, the conference room remained silent for a few seconds.

Chen Fan leaned back in his chair, his eyes fixed on the screen, his face expressionless.

To be honest, this proposal didn't fully capture the overall gameplay of the Nuannuan series from his past life.

But it had reached about 70 percent of that level, and there was no need for every aspect of the gameplay to be identical.

Dress-up games, to put it simply, are all about dressing up. They primarily rely on exquisite character designs and beautiful clothing to attract players.

No matter how complex the gameplay is, if the clothes are ugly, players still won't buy it. Conversely, if the clothes are attractive enough, even if the gameplay is a bit simple, players will still be willing to stay.

Therefore, there was no need to completely replicate the game from his past life. As long as the core direction was grasped, the rest could be left to the planners and artists to figure out.

"Everything else is fine, except for the art style." Chen Fan said, looking at Liu Yuan. "It's leaning a bit too much towards a chibi style. Nuannuan's eyes are too big, her face is too round, and her overall proportions look too juvenile. What I want is that Japanese anime girl style—slender figure, proportions close to a real person, an exquisite face. The eyes can be large, but they shouldn't look like an alien's. The hair needs to have texture, not just look like a blob of color."

Liu Yuan nodded upon hearing this, his pen scribbling quickly in his notebook: "Understood, General Manager Chen. I'll fix it right away."

Immediately after, Chen Fan offered a few more suggestions:

Don't be too stingy with the stamina settings; let players have enough content to play every day without feeling too exhausted;

Reward clothing fragments for clearing chapters so that even ordinary players can collect rare sets through time and patience;

After Chen Fan finished speaking, his gaze swept over the three of them. "That's all. Go back and make the changes."

Zhang Tao closed his notebook, stood up, and led Sun Zheyuan and Liu Yuan out of the conference room.

The conference room quieted down. Chen Fan picked up his phone to check the time. It was just past 3:00 PM; it was still early. He stood up, grabbed his car keys, left the company, and drove straight to Fanti.

In the clothing company's office, Zhao Xiaoran and Qian Fei were sitting at their respective workstations, with several half-finished design drafts on their screens.

Hearing footsteps, both of them looked up simultaneously. Seeing Chen Fan walk in, Zhao Xiaoran quickly stood up, and Qian Fei also put down her mouse and stood up.

"General Manager Chen." Both said in unison.

"Sit." Chen Fan waved his hand, pulled up a chair next to Zhao Xiaoran's workstation, and sat down. "Where are the designs? Let me see."

Zhao Xiaoran quickly opened the design drafts saved on her flash drive and flipped through them one by one for Chen Fan to see.

Chen Fan stared at the screen, his face unreadable.

Zhao Xiaoran and Qian Fei's designs already had hints of the "pure yet seductive" style, but compared to the samples Chen Fan provided, there were still some differences.

The sample designs were more restrained; they showed less skin but were more alluring.

Their designs, however, were trying too hard—the necklines were too low, the skirts were too short, and the lace was used too densely. Instead, they lost the "pure" essence and were left with only the "seductive" part.

Chen Fan began to guide them. He spoke quickly, but every point was crystal clear, and Zhao Xiaoran and Qian Fei took turns recording notes in their notebooks.

"Make the changes according to what I said first, then work on the others." Chen Fan said as he stood up.

Zhao Xiaoran nodded, her expression serious. "Understood, General Manager Chen. We'll finish the changes by next week."

Qian Fei also chimed in, her voice quiet but firm.

Chen Fan didn't say anything more and turned to leave their workstations.

When he reached Li Nan, he suddenly remembered something—the company had been established for so long and had been using the name "Fanti," but it seemed the trademark registration hadn't been handled yet.

"Oh, right, Li Nan." Chen Fan pulled up a chair and sat down. "Find a designer to design the brand logo, and then go get the trademark registered."

Li Nan nodded and opened her notebook. "Sure, do you have any specific requirements?"

"Young, stylish, and minimalist. The logo shouldn't be too complex, nor should it look too old-fashioned." Chen Fan leaned back in his chair, his tone casual. "Just have someone design it first; let's see a few versions and evaluate the effect."

Li Nan jotted down a few notes in her notebook and closed it. "Understood, General Manager Chen."

Chen Fan nodded, said nothing more, stood up, and left.

When he reached the first floor, Chen Fan walked out of the lobby and pushed open the glass door.

The sunlight outside was a bit dazzling; he squinted his eyes and took his car keys out of his pocket. Just as he pressed the unlock button, his phone vibrated.

Chen Fan picked up his phone to check; it was an unfamiliar local number.

He answered the call, and a somewhat familiar woman's voice came from the other end immediately.

"Hello, Mr. Chen. This is Xiao Liu, a sales consultant at the Land Rover 4S dealership. I assisted you previously. Sorry to bother you."

Only then did Chen Fan remember; this was the female sales consultant who had assisted him when he ordered the car last month.

"What is it?" Chen Fan asked while opening the car door.

"The Range Rover you ordered at our dealership last month is ready for pickup tomorrow." The voice on the other end was clearly smiling. "Would tomorrow morning be convenient for you?"

Chen Fan was stunned for a moment; his movement of getting into the driver's seat paused for a beat. "So fast? Didn't you say it would take at least two months?"

"You're lucky, Mr. Chen." The sales consultant's tone held a hint of envy. "Originally, this order belonged to another client, but their loan wasn't approved. Since the manufacturer's quota couldn't wait, it was deferred to you. The car just arrived at the dealership, and the PDI inspection is already done. We can process the paperwork first thing tomorrow morning."

A flash of pleasant surprise appeared in Chen Fan's eyes. After waiting for so long, it was finally arriving.

Chen Fan had liked this Land Rover model very much in his past life, but unfortunately, he hadn't had the ability to drive one back then. In this life, he could finally drive it himself.

"Alright, I'll come over at 10:00 AM tomorrow." Chen Fan said.

"Understood, Mr. Chen. I'll be waiting for you."

Chen Fan hung up the phone, tossed it onto the passenger seat, started the car, and drove out of the parking lot.
