Reboot the age of gaming

Chapter 317

After the meeting was over, Fu Xing'an was still quickly recording in the small notebook, writing and drawing non-stop.

"Why, don't you know the new game?" Zhong Ming came to him and asked.

Fu Xing'an raised his head and smiled: "How can I? I'm excited, and it's the first time I've made this kind of simulation game. It feels like a big challenge for the design team."

Zhong Ming nodded: "Well, indeed, this kind of game requires very strong planning and control of the entire gameplay, otherwise it is easy to be overwhelmed by players. In the near future, you can play more classic strategy games to find inspiration."

After training in so many games, Fu Xing'an can basically be said to be in charge of the Weiguang Studio.

Zhong Ming is constantly making new games, and the employees of Weiguang Studio and Tianji Studio are also growing.

Previously, Zhong Ming chose to start a business with Zhou Sen and Jiang Wanna, and founded the Weiguang studio, including the subsequent recruitment, which mainly recruited young people, and he was also optimistic about the potential of young people.

During the process of making the game, people throughout the project have been exposed to many advanced design concepts. When encountering problems in the game, the design team held meetings and discussed repeatedly, which also greatly promoted the designers.

This is exactly why the game industry values ​​"successful project experience" so much, because what a successful project receives is not only material income, but also a confirmation of a design concept: I am sure that a certain direction is no problem Yes, a certain approach is in line with market demand, and this experience can often continue to guide the development of the next game, which is the most valuable asset.

After the baptism of a series of large-scale games such as "Guardian of the Zodiac", "Resident Evil", "Xuanjia Project", the key members of the Weiguang Studio have increasingly reassured Zhong Ming.

……

go home after get off work.

Every time it was time to get off work, Zhong Ming remembered that it was time for him to take the driver's license test.

It's just that he really can't spare the time. Recently, important things come one after another. Recently, the handles of "Starfire" and GS1 are both under development, and there are still many things to be busy.

But after all, now that I have money, I can take a taxi directly to and from get off work, and I don’t have to squeeze the bus every day like before.

Many people in the studio, as long as they have a driver's license, basically bought a car. In terms of the income of Shimmer Studio, buying a car is no problem at all.

On the contrary, Zhong Ming, the boss, was behind.

Back home, Zhong Ming found that Wei Yong had returned, and then realized that today is Friday at the end of the month.

"Teacher Zhong." Wei Yong greeted with a smile.

"Well, it's a holiday? Have you eaten yet?" Zhong Ming asked while changing his shoes.

Wei Yong nodded: "I ate it, I ate it on the way back. Mr. Zhong, what is this big guy?"

Wei Yong is of course referring to the GS1 engineering machine in the living room.

"This is a shooting game simulator, you can play it to feel it. But... you can only play for an hour, and you still have homework to do." Zhong Ming looked at the time and acquiesced that Wei Yong could play until 8 o'clock.

"Hey, okay!"

Wei Yong was very happy, got into the GS1 engineering machine, and started playing "Xuanjia Project".

Having lived in Zhongming's place for half a year, Wei Yong's overall mental outlook has improved a lot, and he is no longer the timid and nervous Internet addicted boy he was before.

Wei Yong usually lives in school. Judging from the teacher's feedback, Wei Yong is very serious in his usual studies. Although his foundation was not very good at the beginning, he has slowly made up a lot in the past six months.

The experience in the Science and Technology Defense College gave Wei Yong a lot of stimulation, and the life here in Zhongming also gave Wei Yong a lot of stimulation.

Of course, the two stimuli are quite different.

Among the technical defense students, Wei Yong suffered inhumane abuse. He once fell into confusion, self-doubt, and hated the world, but here in Zhongming, he experienced the kindness and sincerity between people, and more importantly, Yes, he identified a way of pursuing purpose in life.

Before that, Wei Yong didn't know anything about the game industry, he just instinctively felt that games were fun, and he admired those star anchors and e-sports players, and had the illusion that he could be like them as long as he played games seriously.

Of course, it is more of an escape, an escape from boring studies, an escape from alienated parents, and an escape from the whole world.

But getting along with Zhong Ming day and night allowed him to see the life of a game producer, and his concept was completely changed.

It turns out that making games is a very hard job and requires so much professional knowledge.It's not that you can make a living just by playing games desperately. In fact, if you want to enter the game industry, you must first master enough knowledge.

Therefore, Wei Yong is no longer as confused as he used to be after going through the incident at the Technology Defense Academy. He hopes to become a person who can enter the game industry like Zhong Ming and truly take making games as his lifelong career. The premise of all this is It is he who first wants to get good grades in the exam and go to a good university.

The problem of "addiction to the Internet", which was regarded as a scourge by Wei Yong's parents, disappeared naturally after Wei Yong found his real goal.

Moreover, in Zhong Ming's place, Wei Yong's vision has become unprecedentedly broadened.

In the past, the games he came into contact with were basically online games, and a large part of them were krypton gold mobile games.

Starting from Zhong Ming's "Zodiac Guardian", Wei Yong began to come into contact with these artistic games, and after coming to Zhong Ming, Wei Yong also knew those first-class game works through Zhong Ming, and these games made Wei Yong's vision change. changed.

After playing this kind of game, Wei Yong's interest in the previous online games gradually faded away.

These can be said to be the reasons for Wei Yong's change. He has found a goal in life, and he will work hard to move forward without "electrotherapy".

An hour later, Wei Yong came out of GS1 reluctantly.

It can be seen that he still wants to play, but Zhong Ming said that he can only play for an hour, Wei Yong is still very obedient.

"The game is developing really fast." Wei Yong couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Living here in Zhongming, Wei Yong has always been able to get in touch with the most cutting-edge and popular game trends, so he will naturally express this emotion.

"The college entrance examination is two months away?" Zhong Ming asked.

Wei Yong nodded: "Yes, July 7th."

"Come on, if you get admitted to Ming'an University, we will be alumni."

Wei Yong scratched his head: "I'll try my best, Mr. Zhong, Ming'an University has quite high scores, so I really might not be able to pass the exam."

There is still a big difference between the college entrance examination in this world and Zhong Ming's previous life. First of all, the time is different.However, the difficulty of the college entrance examination in this world is much lower than that of Zhong Ming's previous life, because students in this world actually have many ways to go out, and the number of university admissions is relatively larger than the population.

With Wei Yong's current grades, if he works hard, he still has hope to be admitted to Ming'an University.

"If you are admitted to Ming'an University, I can allow you to come to Weiguang Studio to help in your spare time. Haven't you always been very interested in game production? You can also come to experience it when you are in college." Zhong Ming said.

Wei Yong showed joy: "Really? That's great!"

"The premise is that you have to be admitted to Ming'an University." Zhong Ming said with a smile.

"Okay, Teacher Zhong, I will work hard!" Wei Yong nodded hastily.

Wei Yong is indeed very interested in game production. He really wants to become a game designer like Zhong Ming. Now that he can help out at Weiguang Studio during college, he is very happy.

Wei Yong went back to his room to study.

In fact, Zhong Ming knew that Wei Yong wanted to enter the game industry, but he had always been cautious about it.

Because of their love for games, many Internet addicted teenagers often fall in love with "making games" or "playing games", and thus have wrong expectations for game producers, professional e-sports players, and anchors. May not be suitable for this industry.

Many people always equate the industry of game producers, professional players, and anchors who make a living from games with "playing games". In fact, this is very wrong.

Therefore, Zhong Ming’s request to Wei Yong is to get into a good university first, and try to get in touch with some game design things during the university. If you are really sure that you intend to pursue the game industry as your lifelong career, and you are really good at making games, then join There is no problem with Weiguang Studio; on the contrary, if Wei Yong finds that he is not suitable for entering the game industry, then Zhong Ming will definitely encourage him to try other industries he likes.

Zhong Ming watched TV on the sofa for a while, and suddenly the bracelet rang. It was the agency from before.

"Mr. Zhong, hello! That's it. The high-end house you were looking for last time is finally available. Tomorrow Saturday, are you free? I'll take you to have a look?"

"Okay, you send me the information first." Zhong Ming said.

"No problem, it will be sent to your bracelet immediately."

A moment later, the agency sent over a document, which was a set of loft rental information.

Popular business district, prosperous surrounding area, high-end residential area, well-decorated.

The key is that the scenery is good, the floor-to-ceiling windows also have a large balcony, you can see the nearby city park when you look out, and the night view of the business district on the other side.

The floor height is high and the area is large. The decoration looks like it was designed by a special person. It is very avant-garde and warm.

The environment and decoration are the two most important things for Tang Ying, and this house is finally satisfied.

Of course, loft has some problems. For example, it is used for commercial and residential purposes, and the rent is relatively high.But after all, Tang Ying only rents rather than buys, and the money is not bad, so this house should be very suitable for Tang Ying.

Zhong Ming took a look and felt that this house should be very suitable for Tang Ying's needs, so he directly sent the information to Tang Ying.

Not long after, Tang Ying wrote back: "This house is not bad! That's it."

"...Don't, I'll check it out tomorrow, don't worry." Zhong Ming was also a little speechless, but Tang Ying simply decided to make a decision after looking at the panoramic photos on the app.

Afterwards, the two discussed it and decided to check out the house on Saturday morning. If there was no problem, Tang Ying would rent it and live temporarily.

……

The next day, Zhong Ming, Tang Ying and the agent met at this house.

"The original owner was a female designer, and she decorated the whole house herself. Now that she is staying in the first district due to work reasons, the house is vacant. You two have also seen that the decoration of this house is indeed very good. Well, the scenery is also good, it is very suitable for leisure or some literary creation here, so the price... must be more expensive."

"This is the balcony. There are some flowers and plants. The original owner has been taking care of them all the time. You'd better look for them, or we can arrange for someone to come and take care of them on a regular basis."

"This is the master bedroom, which happens to have a large floor-to-ceiling window, and the lighting is very good. At night, you can see the bustling night scene over there, and during the day, you can see the nearby city park."

"There is also the work area on the second floor here. The original owner put a lot of books here, and there is also a bar. It's not bad to grind coffee yourself."

"The living room is the most exciting. The groove on the ground is made by the designer himself. It is sealed with tempered glass. There are fish in it, which are directly connected to the aquarium over there. Walking in the living room is like walking in the living room. Same in the garden."

"The original owner prefers an empty living room, so there is only a TV in the living room now, and nothing else. Of course, if you want to put other things, it is completely OK."

The professional quality of the intermediary is good, and this house is blown away.

But what he said is indeed true. The original owner of this house was a designer, who spent a lot of money to renovate this house, and it is different from the standardized fine decoration outside. The various decoration styles in the room are very harmonious , making people feel very close to nature.

Of course, the price is also very expensive, the monthly rent is as high as [-].

"OK, rent it." Tang Ying immediately took out the bracelet, signed the contract and paid.

The intermediary was all happy: "Beauty, you are so open-minded! Okay, then I won't bother you two, you two can come to me anytime you need anything."

After the agent left, Tang Ying lay down on the sofa in the living room: "It's comfortable!"

Zhong Ming sat on the sofa next to him, a little speechless: "You are a little too anxious, although this house is really nice..."

"If you're ready, make a decision. Don't be in a hurry. I'll ask someone to bring my luggage."

Tang Ying clicked on the bracelet a few times, and her luggage was packed and stored at the front desk of the hotel before she left, and the staff can deliver it to her with a small shipping fee.

The main reason is that Tang Ying didn't bring any luggage, just a change of clothes and some cosmetics, and the rest were bought after she came to Ming'an City.

Zhong Ming also clicked on the bracelet a few times: "You are barely moving to a new house, a gift for you?"

"Huh? Okay, okay." Tang Ying nodded.

"It should be delivered around noon." Zhong Ming looked at the time.

"OK, let me go shopping now and buy all the necessities of life." Tang Ying opened the bracelet and started online shopping.
