Chapter 215 The hope of the whole village! (Additional update for the leader of the common people’s dream)
“General!”
“become an official.”
“Also!”
“Admiral.”
“Get back on your horse and then general again!”
“…Hehehe, good chess! The aggression continues like fire. It’s really a spring breeze and the horse’s hooves are fast. Today’s chess is very fierce.”
At noon on weekends!
Shen Wanlin gathered the chess pieces in his hands, smiled, shook his head and admitted defeat!
“No, you let me.”
Gu Sheng also smiled and took the initiative to take Shen Wanlin's chess piece and resume the game.
"Why-"
Hearing this, Shen Wanlin took a sip of tea and shook his head to show Gu Sheng that there was no need to be too modest in front of him:
“Young people need to be energetic. If they are not energetic, are they called young people?”
“You’re going to go soon, Dad,”
Shen Miaomiao came over with fruit and put a piece of cut orange into Shen Wanlin's mouth:
“He is already prosperous enough. Now in the domestic gaming circle, and even in the Asian gaming circle, he is the one with the most momentum. If he becomes more prosperous, he will be on fire..."
Shen Miaomiao said it right.
Gu Sheng is so prosperous now that he is actually about to catch fire!
Since the collision with Comela!
So far, it’s been a full month and a half!
The names "Gu Sheng" and "Sam" have almost never left the lips of the game media and players!
First of all, he used "Escape" to enter the horror game circle, and firmly established himself as the king of horror, beating "Silent Hill" to the point where he couldn't even lift his head!
Lastly, with a sales volume of 1.16 million copies in a single week, it exploded into the horror game circle, directly killed the competition, and shook the entire Dongjin Video Game Festival's revenue plan for Comela!
By the way, Yamamoto Studio, one of the three companies in Comella, was dismissed, causing an uproar in the industry!
And just at the beginning of this month!
As GDC announced the invitation list for this year’s developer conference.
Golden Wind and Gu Sheng, who were invited as an exception, have once again become a hot topic in the circle, and the popularity is long-lasting!
The players were in an uproar, comparable to spiritual shareholders, and each one was even more excited than Gu Sheng.
Not only because this is the first time that Golden Wind has participated in a global gaming conference.
Because of this, Golden Wind is the only manufacturer in China to participate in the conference with a new work!
Yes!
The other three manufacturers, Guangyao, Zhenting and Fury, did not bring their works to the conference this time!
Firstly, it is limited by the limitations of GDC—
Theoretically speaking, projects that participate in GDC display usually need to have a certain degree of groundbreaking and innovative significance.
This is the default rule of GDC. If you bring a mediocre work, the publicity effect will be counterproductive.
So even if the three brothers have new projects in their hands, they don’t dare to bring them to this, for fear of repeating the same mistakes as Comela.
Secondly, it is naturally because of Golden Wind’s attack this time——
You need to know!
Brilliant, thundering, angry.
These three major factories were in China at that time, but they were all more or less severely beaten by the golden wind!
At the Asian Games, the racing game that Nu Yan invested in was suppressed, and it was Gu Sheng who won the golden crown.
In the subsequent new generation somatosensory cabin battle, Zhenting, as one of the "Three Heroes Fighting Lu Bu", was also defeated by BT-7274.
As for Guangyao, it’s even worse!
It has received two beatings!
Not only was he involved when Zhen Ting was beaten, but he was also the one who was hit by a hammer in "Left 4 Survival" before!
so!
At this meeting, the three major manufacturers in China all maintained a tacit understanding.
Golden Wind has taken action, so let’s not cause trouble.
And this way!
Golden Wind has undoubtedly become the only one among the Chinese participating groups!
The hope of the whole village!
Although!
GDC is a non-competition game exchange gathering.
But according to the tradition of previous years, at the end of the conference, media representatives and organizers will also select a title of "Most Anticipated Game".
This title has never been obtained by Hua Guo Games since its establishment!
The closest thing was six or seven years ago, not long after the somatosensory cabin was just emerging. Nu Yan won a nomination for "Speed Rally".
Such a situation!
The hopes that Chinese players have for Golden Wind are evident.
“So this time, you are not going to take the horror game route, are you?”
After listening to Shen Miaomiao's narration, Shen Wanlin asked:
“Since this GDC emphasizes innovation, striking while the iron is hot is not a good option.”
Shen Wanlin was so experienced that he gave Gu Sheng the direction in just one sentence.
Special situations are treated with special treatment. Although striking while the iron is hot is definitely beneficial to profits from a normal business perspective.
But in this situation, it is obviously not appropriate.
“Well, this time I really have to play a horror game first,”
After Shen Wanlin finished speaking, Gu Sheng also nodded:
“Firstly, it’s because the occasion is not suitable, and secondly, it’s also because there is still resistance to my subsequent horror game development plan.”
"oh?"
Hearing this, Shen Wanlin raised his eyebrows slightly:
“What resistance?”
“Copyright,”
Gu Sheng opened his mouth and said:
“The next horror game development plan involves an old IP copyright that is floating around, so before development, I have to find an opportunity to acquire the copyright.”
“That’s it…”
After listening to Gu Sheng's words, Shen Wanlin nodded slowly and pondered for a moment:
“Is it difficult?”
“Not too big…and not too small,”
Gu Sheng smiled, thought for a moment and replied:
“Financial matters are small, but favors are big matters.”
"Um…"
Hearing this, Shen Wanlin nodded.
There was a moment of silence: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. When you need it, the lottery may come naturally..."
Say it!
I saw Shen Wanlin twisting a chess piece and falling into the chessboard!
bang!
…
“Five sons in a row, you’re in trouble.”
On the tablet computer, the black stone fell and the five stars connected, killing the white piece again.
The country of America.
Luoshanji.
Conference Hall No. 5, International Conference Center.
today!
It’s the third day of the Global Game Developers Conference networking session!
˜It is also the time for the ‘Asian Game Developer Representative’ to give a speech!
More than 300 multimedia integrated conference seats are now fully occupied!
Equipped with a huge screen and Dolby Atmos surround sound matrix, the stage is filled with brilliance and brilliance!
Click click click!
The flashing lights keep sounding!
The flashlights of the media in front of the stage were ringing frequently.
In the open space in the last row of the entire conference hall, there are even more long guns and short cannons set up.
Top game developers from all five continents around the world gathered together and looked forward to it.
At this moment.
Under the side curtain of the stage, Gu Sheng has just completed ten consecutive backgammon kills against Little Nezha!
“You’re so shameless! You didn’t even inform me!”
Shen Miaomiao was obviously not convinced by being killed by Gu Sheng again:
“You can’t join diagonally any more, diagonal joins don’t count!”
"Hey! Is your request a bit too much?" Gu Sheng was shocked:
"Are you cheating or am I cheating? Are you changing the rules temporarily?"
“My rules are rules!”
Shen Miao Miaoli is strong even if he is not straightforward:
“Then can’t I just declare you the winner?”
Gu Sheng was simply shocked by Xiao Nezha's shamelessness:
“I gave you three pieces, but you took the initiative and formed them directly. I’m just kidding!”
Watching the two of them bickering and playing chess with tablets in their hands.
Chu Qingzhou beside him was completely speechless.
Brother! Sister!
GDC!
We are at GDC and will be giving speeches and demonstrations soon!
You are actually competing over the rules of a game of backgammon?
Is this an issue that you need to consider and care about now?
However!
Just when I was about to speak, I reminded you again!
Just listen to the host’s voice from the stage!
“Let us now give you a round of applause. Sam, the chief game director from China’s Golden Wind, comes to the stage,”
"Bring us a special speech on "The Future Development Prospects and Shaping Methods of Cinematic Games" and a live demonstration of the latest work!"
Hush! !
Suddenly!
Warm applause rang out in the conference hall, mixed with a few screams and whistles from time to time!
Follow up!
The entire conference hall fell into darkness!
咻咻—
The sound of the biting wind came from dozens of speakers surrounding the conference hall!
It seems like rushing through the wind, more like the airflow falling rapidly past the ears.
As the funk-style music played, a picture appeared on the huge screen at the scene—
Ten thousand meters above the sky!
The camera follows a tall, thin man falling downwards!
Follow up!
The camera flipped around, and behind the tall and thin man, there was also a strong man with a mouth-shaped beard following him!
As the two of them fell rapidly in the sky, an eagle flew over and cut the scene into two!
On the left is a man with a mouth-shaped beard, and subtitles flash below [Leading Starring: Vincent]
On the right is the perspective of a tall, thin, hook-nosed man, with subtitles flashing above [Leading Starring: Leo]
With the continuous switching of scenes, the magical visual experience of dual perspectives also comes!
In the prison area, Leo's punch knocked an inmate from the right screen into the left screen, and Vincent in the left screen knocked the inmate into the right screen with a knee.
In the prison, Vincent passes a wrench along the left screen to the right screen, while Leo in the right screen reaches out to take the handed wrench.
Above the high wall, Vincent in the left picture is trying to climb up along the rope, while the rope passes through the right picture and is held tightly by Leo.
Vincent rowed on the left and Leo steered the boat on the right.
Vincent drives on the left and Leo blocks the enemy on the right.
Although the two are in different scenes and perspectives, they reach the same goal by different paths and cooperate with each other.
From prison, to high walls, to countryside, to luxurious villas.
Finally!
The two people walked toward each other from the split screen, and the two pictures were spliced into a complete picture.
Time goes back to when they were still in prison.
The two passed each other and had a brief exchange—
“What are the weather conditions lately?”
“Good news, there’s a storm tonight.”
“Action tonight?”
“Action tonight!”
Finally, the words "AWAYOUT" cast by the shadow of the barbed wire appeared on the dark screen—
Next second!
Just listen to the brief silence for half a second!
Then there was thunderous applause and an uproar in an instant!
‘ohhhhhhh—Is this a promotional video? Is this a game promotional video? ’
'sky! It looks like a movie trailer! ’
‘Incredible! They are obviously doing the same thing, but through split-screen dislocation, they present completely different pictures! ’
‘Pushing and pulling the camera around the camera, taking various overhead shots and upward shots, it’s like a movie-level storyboard! ’
‘Looks like the movie version of Prison Break! ’
‘Like The Shawshank Redemption, but easier than The Shawshank Redemption! ’
‘Without a doubt, Golden Wind never disappoints when it comes to imagination and creativity! ’
‘I have never seen a promotional video like this! How refreshing! ’
‘Where on earth does Sam get so many creative ideas? ! ’
‘…’
A simple video broadcast!
But it immediately aroused a discussion in the audience!
Excellent storyboard shots and montage techniques perfectly present the best look and feel of this game!
Follow up!
We saw Gu Sheng, wearing a gray-blue casual suit and a Mickey fashion watch on his wrist, striding onto the stage under the re-lit stage lights!
Thunderous applause sounded!
The new visual experience brought by the broadcast made all the participants crane their necks in anticipation, waiting for Gu Sheng’s speech today!
And Gu Sheng also walked to the center of the stage and picked up the microphone:
“Good morning everyone, I am the chief game director of Golden Wind, Gu Sheng,”
“So what you just saw is the new work we have specially prepared for this GDC and are currently under development,”
“A two-player cooperative, interactive cinematic game:”
“Escape from death…”
at the same time.
There is also a heated discussion on the barrage in the official live broadcast room—
‘The trailer for Crab is so cool! ’
‘Damn this storyboard! Damn this montage! Damn this transition! Damn it! ’
‘Let me just say that the old thief will have a big job participating in GDC this time! This game is so cinematic! ’
'broken! He really understands how to play the movie-style game! ’
‘As expected of you! Xiao Huang! The hope of the whole village! ’
‘…’
Looking forward to it at the scene, and the barrage is hotly discussed!
With Gu Sheng’s analysis from shallow to deep, it is combined with the explanation of the relevant settings of "Escape".
The scene was even more shocked, and the barrage of ‘ohhhhhhh—’ was one after another!
An incredible game!
even!
Everyone didn't know for a while whether to call this "Escape" a game!
Because the two "lead actors" marked in the trailer actually need to be played by two players respectively, and cannot be replaced by AI!
and!
The long transition from CG to real-camera shots in the middle is even more mind-numbing!
A variety of fancy montage techniques and camera movements, coupled with the movie's unique 2.40:1 aspect ratio, made everyone present couldn't help but marvel!
The Golden Wind is so bold, and Gu Sheng’s creativity is so exquisite!
This game is so hard to define!
It is both a game full of cinematic technology and a movie starring two players!
And what kind of sparks will such a magical setting create and what effect will it produce?
“I know that everyone must be curious and a little confused about this new setting,”
Gu Sheng said:
“After all, a simple trailer and my mouth alone cannot present the most appropriate game effect,”
"so!!"
Speaking of which!
Gu Sheng’s voice raised a notch!
The whole audience was focused, and all media cameras were focused on him!
“So I specially prepared a video of about half an hour of actual gameplay to present to everyone as a demo,”
Gu Sheng said:
“Next, we won’t go into details. My partner and I will bring you this live demonstration,”
“Then, please allow me the honor of inviting my partner—”
“President of Golden Wind Games, Ms. Shen Miaomiao came on stage,”
“Cooperate with me to complete this practical demonstration!”
