Chapter 435: A sudden turn of events! Questions are pouring in!
soon!
Discussions about the DLC [John Wick] of "Payday" have spread overwhelmingly in the gaming circle.
Just one week later, Golden Wind and Legendary Pictures jointly announced that the DLC movie of the same name "John Wick" has officially started filming, and announced part of the cast.
This movie adapted from the game quickly broke through the industry.
The discussion is not only hot in the game circle, but also in the film and television entertainment circle, earning a lot of attention!
After all, compared to other movie adaptations of games, the cast of "John Wick" is unprecedentedly strong.
Even the popular "Resident Evil" couldn't compare with it.
It is well-deserved that it has one of the strongest casts in a movie adapted from a game in history!
For a time, reports from all walks of life came in one after another—
"[John Wick]" is announced to be released! The first movie adaptation of the Golden Wind game is launched! 》
《Dream Linkage! After "Pacific Rim", Golden Wind and Legendary Pictures have an in-depth cooperation! 》
"The designer who best understands lens language in the gaming industry & the most game-obsessed CEO in the film and television industry! What kind of sparks can Gu Sheng and Thomas Tull collide with? 》
《 lifetime! Golden Wind and Legendary Pictures have joined forces, and the game adaptation movie "John Wick" has received widespread attention! 》
《The real "golden film studio"! Golden Wind x Legendary Pictures will jointly produce the game adaptation movie "John Wick", starring Keanu Reeves! 》
At this time, it is the end of winter and the beginning of spring.
Although the temperature is still a little cold, with the announcement of the launch of this game modification movie, the popularity of Golden Wind seems to have reached an unprecedented height.
A company that is at the center of a storm in the gaming industry, coupled with an unprecedented and luxurious cast lineup.
Everything was as Gu Sheng had expected, instantly detonating the game and even the film and television entertainment industry.
A game company.
Developed a game.
Adapted into a movie.
It has ignited hot expectations in the game entertainment industry.
Such a situation seems to be inevitably reminiscent of another company’s top-level operation at the Clone Game Show that just ended at the beginning of the year—
‘It’s really amazing. Some people are making popular games and movies, while others are using top IP to create a shapeless answer.’
‘Cornick: Huh? What words! What is this? ’
‘I always feel that Xiao Huang did it on purpose’
‘Teaching forehand and backhand, right? ’
‘Tell Cornick to go back to Gotham and Batman promises not to fight him’
‘The key is that this wave is so targeted, and Cologne has just passed away not long ago, so it’s hard not to be reminded of it’
‘Golden Wind: Watch carefully, I will only teach it once’
‘It feels like the black humor of a guy with a dark psychology like an old thief’
‘I don’t know whether the old thief is humorous or not, but compared to the other two, Cornick is really quite humorous’
‘To this day, I still can’t understand how they turned such a top-notch IP as Lord of the Rings into a piece of defense’
ification
‘Hahahahahahahahahaha…’
‘…’
Obviously!
With the release of the movie's launch news, not only the fiery effect Gu Sheng had previously expected was achieved.
Shen Miaomiao's "forehand and backhand teaching" which Shen Miaomiao just mentioned casually at the beginning was also miraculously realized.
Everything seems to be going very smoothly. The previous discussion due to the mediocre industrial quality of "Payday" seems to have been gradually ignored with the announcement of "John Wick".
Until half a month later!
The emergence of a piece of news caused Golden Wind’s originally smooth reputation to suddenly take a turn for the worse—
…
"Game Film and Television: Is it Diversified Development?" Or is it that Guizhou donkey has no skills? 》
This article first appeared in SNG Weekly.
ˆ is written by a Chinese SNG editor.
As the world’s largest comprehensive game media, this article immediately attracted a lot of attention as soon as it was published.
Although the title of the article does not mention anyone by name.
But at this time, it is obviously not difficult to see who the protagonist of such an article published in the world's most influential game weekly is.
The article states that—
【Today's carnival of game-modified movies is certainly a "double-chef ecstasy" in the gaming and film circles, but the problems hidden behind it still cannot be ignored...】
…We can’t help but ask: Is this a new approach to the development dilemma of our game industry by so vigorously mobilizing players’ attention and shifting their attention from mediocre games to game-modification movies with strong casts? 】
We can’t help but ask again: Can a temporary carnival really solve the problem of having no engine available and hindering the progress of the entire industry? 】
【We can't help but ask: The host country's grand event is imminent, but there is no progress on key core issues! At this time, can such a carnival really be called a "new progress" in industrial diversification? Or is it just a desperate act due to lack of skills? 】
【…As a Chinese, I am very pleased to see the progress and development of the Chinese game industry in recent years,】
【But as a media person who has been involved in the game industry for more than ten years, I know better that what is hidden behind this short and numb cheer is the tragedy of the core technology of China's game industry...】
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
Without a doubt!
The appearance of this article is like dropping a huge boulder into the ripples of the lake!
It instantly caused an uproar!
After all, this is a Chinese editor working in SNG, and he has a more sufficient nationality advantage to comment on the "Chinese engine dilemma".
In a very short period of time, the previous heated discussion about "John Wick" was curbed. And it has guided countless players around the world to “see the essence through phenomena”.
Refocused attention on the key issue of [Golden Engine Dilemma].
Players are talking a lot—
‘OMG deserves to be an editor in China, and his analysis of the problem is too thorough’
‘A to-the-point article, objective and rational’
‘The Golden Engine is indeed still facing difficulties, and its mediocre technical capabilities still cannot support Sam to realize his game idea’
‘As the article said, now that China’s engine is blocked, hyping a game modification movie is indeed a bit cover-up’
‘What a worrying fact’
‘In this way, it seems that game-changing movies really shouldn’t be such a big deal, and Golden Wind seems to be deliberately using other more exciting news to cover up its own shortcomings’
“After all, “Payday” is just a test game, so it shouldn’t receive such unprecedented treatment, and if GW is determined to develop into film and television, “Escape” seems to be more suitable than “Payday”’
‘Using film and television to make up for the shortcomings of game technology? I feel that this article’s analysis is very reasonable…’
‘I believe Sam must be helpless and can only do this’
‘But the China CJ Exhibition is coming soon...'
‘That’s right, that’s why they used “John Wick” to test the market. Then they can follow this formula and announce it at the CJ Expo.’
‘But what I like after all is GW’s games’
‘It feels like GW is overdrawing its gaming capabilities…’
‘…’
The power of words.
Using a pen as a knife is never an exaggeration.
Even, to a certain extent, the pen of a media person with a wide range of communication and influence is more powerful than John Wick’s pencil!
The wind direction changes rapidly!
The gaming industry seems to have "woke up" overnight—
? Is the road to gaming movies "teaching forehand and backhand" or "testing the player's bottom line?"
"Self-developed engine is in trouble, Golden Wind finds another way"
"Gold is covered in dust, self-developed engines are in trouble; hosts are in a dilemma, find another way out to treat the symptoms but not the root cause"
《Diversified development or helplessness? The much-anticipated [John Wick] may be the beginning of Golden Wind’s downhill journey”
Reports are coming one after another!
The voices of bad-mouthing are getting louder!
Although it seems that the rhythm this time is similar to the previous rhythm that badmouthed "Payday" and accused the golden engine of mediocre performance.
But actually!
Everyone knows it.
●This public opinion is far more deadly and serious than the previous petty quarrels!
This time, what the media and public opinion pointed out was not how mediocre your self-developed engine was, but pointed out that "the road to self-developed engines for the Chinese game industry will most likely encounter Waterloo"!
As the related discussions intensify!
Just when everyone is still speculating and questioning!
An even more important news broke out.
As this news broke, the suspense seemed to be killed instantly.
The trend of gold is declining, and even the speculation that China’s self-developed engine is a failure seems to have been concluded at this point——
A person who claims to be a "Golden Engine R&D Executive" posted a post in the [Chinese Game Developers Forum]:
【Risk your life to reveal the news! The development situation of the engine is indeed not optimistic...]
On the first floor of the post, the whistleblower first put up a work sign with his personal name coded on it.
In the uncoded part, words such as "Golden Engine R&D Department" and "Senior Engineer" are clearly visible on the work badge.
“I occupy the first floor myself, I’m in an Internet cafe, risking my life to break the news, I’ll post a picture of my internal work certificate first, please forgive me for typing my name...”
Standard breaking news format occupies the first floor of the post.
There is a saying that goes well -
On the Internet, you never know whether there is a person or a dog at the other end of the information flow.
In the current public opinion environment, there are divergent opinions and constant speculation.
Breaking news itself is the best way to gain attention.
Especially this kind of ‘experienced statement’ revelations.
Coupled with this convincing work certificate.
There is no doubt that the forum was instantly detonated!
In just three minutes, the floor had already reached two hundred meters away—
‘Holy shit! There are pictures and the truth! ’
‘Strong onlookers! ’
‘The questioner is awesome! ’
‘Melon-eating people who don’t know the truth are waiting’
‘Holy shit, this is so exciting, you’re really a senior engineer in engine development’
‘Sure enough, he risked his life to reveal the news’
‘Is the source reliable (dog head)’
‘The small bench with peanuts and melon seeds for sale in the front row…’
‘…’
Amidst the urging of the crowd, the whistleblower also slowly revealed the ‘internal situation’ he had mastered—
