Chapter 161 Historical Data
Light Wing Interactive Entertainment.
Yu Kangyu was very unhappy.
"I've asked you before if you need to transfer Zhong Ming to other projects, keep the bonus, and give up the promotion and comfort. You said no, now it's better, such an excellent talent has been lost, who's the responsibility?!"
Director Bai bowed his head and admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry, Mr. Yu, it's my responsibility. However, Zhong Ming did not reveal to anyone about his participation in the virtual idol competition, including Director Xie, and he immediately left the studio after winning the first place in the competition. In my opinion, he had plans for it, and it was not because of his experience in "The Sea of Learning Nowhere".
"And as far as I know, several companies such as Xinghua Interactive Entertainment and Gonna Entertainment have also extended olive branches to Zhong Ming, but Zhong Ming did not accept it, and even the copyright of the character Shanaier was not sold. It can be seen that he is not a target that can be won over by profit."
Yu Kangyu was silent for a moment, and he also knew that what Director Bai said was indeed correct.
"That's also a loss of talent..."
Yu Kangyu was very upset because Guangyi Interactive Entertainment lacked people in virtual idols, especially this kind of top design talents!
Virtual idol is not just a virtual singer, she has many other uses.
For example, developing games with the image of a virtual idol, holding concerts, advertising endorsements, etc.
Especially when developing games, some popular story IPs combined with virtual idols can often create good sparks. This principle is like many traffic movies in Zhong Ming’s previous life, and TV series like to use young and handsome actors, for the sake of that face and that group of fans.
Guangyi Interactive Entertainment has always been weak in virtual idols. Yu Kangyu has replaced many people in charge for this, but no person in charge can create a popular virtual idol!
But now that things have come to this point, Yu Kangyu has no choice.
Whether Zhong Ming made up his mind to start his own business or suffered discomfortable treatment at Guangyi Interactive Entertainment, in the final analysis, Guangyi Interactive Entertainment must have problems here. But Yu Kangyu could not keep an eye on every link from recruitment to project. Sometimes his subordinates are not good at doing things well, and he, the president, has no other way except to get furious.
"What do he want to do when he set up a studio? Is it a virtual idol?" Yu Kangyu calmed down and asked.
Director Bai replied: "No, according to himself, he wants to develop an independent game by himself."
"Independent game? It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers." Yu Kangyu was very surprised, "Okay, I understand."
Director Bai said again: "Mr. Yu, I came here today to report to you the data issues of the new version of "The Sea of Learning is Endless".
"Oh. Say it."
Director Bai sent the electronic version of the relevant data directly to Yu Kangyu with a bracelet: "After the new version was launched, the sponsors we cooperated with were quite satisfied with the changes, especially the part that cooperated to create the resurrection question. However, the popularity has not increased significantly for the time being. I also bought the hot search for the new version of Million Big Sa Coin, but the response was mediocre. However, considering that we mainly rely on sponsors to make profits, the impact is not great at present, and we can continue to promote it."
"I bought the hot search and the response was mediocre..."
Yu Kangyu frowned slightly, and he smelled a trace of bad smell from this incident.
In the past, when Zhong Ming pushed the million-dollar coin section, it was on the hot searches, which meant that it formed a topic effect. Often, the change in popularity could be clearly seen from the number of answerers the question the next day. But now when buying the hot searches, the response is mediocre. Could it be because... this popularity is gradually fading? Players' interest is no longer there?
"Continue pushing." Yu Kangyu said.
...
Many people left messages under Zhong Ming’s Weibo.
Some people expressed their expectations for the indie game that Zhong Ming will develop soon.
Some people advised Zhong Ming not to commit suicide. The risk of independent games is too great. Don’t think about eating a fat man in one bite. The road should be taken step by step.
Some people expressed their dissatisfaction with Zhong Ming's path, and it was better to continue developing virtual idols than anything else.
In short, most of the fans are expressing concern.
In the studio.
Zhou Sen has already set up the intranet and can now upload and modify it to the intranet, update documents and resources, and also has a simple open source test platform to record bugs in the game.
Jiang Wanna has a simple studio logo, with the theme pattern being a burning flame, but it is not a concrete image, but a relatively abstract pattern, half golden and half red. Next to the logo pattern, there are five art words "Glimmer Studio".
Zhong Ming also made a lot of suggestions on this logo, and he thought it was feasible, but he still needs to be refined in the future.
Zhou Sen finished the work at hand and turned around and saw Zhong Ming checking information online.
"Historical data? Well, ancient history? And the history of World War II?"
Zhou Sen was a little surprised and didn't know if these information was related to the new game.
In this world, the history from the three wars to the end of the intelligent machinery crisis is called modern history, while the history before the three wars is collectively called ancient history.
Of course, this is a bit strange for Zhong Ming, because he himself is used to using the industrial revolution and institutional revolution as the standard for division of history, and calling World War II "ancient history", which makes him feel awkward.
However, for people in this world, World War I and World War II are indeed very distant words.
Zhou Sen just took a look, but didn't ask, just talking about his own affairs: "Zhongming, what engine should we use to make the game?"
"This game is done with Mccs2D." Zhong Ming replied.
"Oh well."
Zhou Sen went to download the Mccs2D engine directly.
There are many game engines in this world, with different features.
Mccs2D is an entry-level commonly used game engine, and it is an open source framework itself. Its three biggest advantages are: free, free, and free.
Of course, there are some other advantages, such as stability, ease of use, special optimizations for portable mobile device environments such as bracelets, etc.
The disadvantage is also very prominent, that is, it is basically difficult to make 3D things, so its name is also written very clearly, it is called Mccs2D, a game engine that specializes in 2D games.
Similar game engines can be regarded as a complete set of development tools, including editors. Choosing a suitable game engine can help save costs and shorten R&D time, mainly to reduce some unnecessary workload for programmers.
Although this engine is not high-end, it is also commonly used. Although large companies basically don't use it, most independent game makers, including some newcomers who have not been in the industry, like to use this engine as their first choice.
