小孟，我很欣赏你的游戏开发创意，“淘金热”这个题材大有可为！
Xiǎomèng ，wǒ hěn xīnshǎng nǐ de yóuxì kāifā chuàngyì ，“táojīnrè ”zhège tícái dàyǒukěwéi ！
Xiao Meng, I really admire your ability to create innovative games. "Gold Rush"-- that's a topic with a lot of potential!
肖总，我把我的想法加工了一下，我们可以把单机游戏开发成网络游戏。
Xiāozǒng ，wǒ bǎ wǒde xiǎngfǎ jiāgōng le yīxià ，wǒmen kěyǐ bǎ dānjīyóuxì kāifā chéng wǎngluò yóuxì 。
Manager Xiao, I've tweaked my ideas a bit. We can make an individual game into an online multi-player game.
让人们都一股脑地往发现金矿的加利福尼亚跑，游戏趣味性会不会大打折扣？
ràng rénmen dōu yīgǔnǎo de wǎng fāxiàn jīnkuàng de Jiālìfú níyà pǎo ，yóuxì qùwèixìng huì bùhuì dà dǎ zhékòu ？
Won't having everyone dashing off to California where gold mines were discovered take a lot of the fun out of the game?
您的担心有道理，不过我已经想好对策了。“淘金热”只是一个引子，由此带来的连锁反应才是我们这个游戏的制胜法宝，比如大量的移民涌入加州，工商业的发展，还有西部交通运输业的发展都可以成为游戏的一部分。
nín de dānxīn yǒu dàolǐ ，bùguò wǒ yǐjīng xiǎng hǎo duìcè le 。“táojīnrè ”zhǐ shì yāo gè yǐnzi ，yóu cǐ dài lái de liánsuǒfǎnyìng cái shì wǒmen zhège yóuxì de zhìshèngfǎbǎo ，bǐrú dàliàng de yímín yǒngrù jiāzhōu ，gōngshāngyè de fāzhǎn ，háiyǒu xībù jiāotōng yùnshū de fāzhǎn dōu kěyǐ chéngwéi yóuxì de yībùfen 。
Your concerns are reasonable, but I've already come up with a countermeasure. "Gold Rush" is just the introduction-- the chain reactions that it brings along are the key to the game's success. For example, a ton of immigrants flooding into California, the development of industry and commerce, and the development of transportation and shipping in the West. All these things can become part of the game.
