Chapter 211 Broken! He Has Become the Warden!
Follow Chu Dami to the president's office.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw little Nezha frowning at the computer screen, as if he was examining it carefully and thinking hard.
After nodding with Gu Sheng, Chu Qingzhou took him to the door and left.
Gu Sheng walked into the office: "What invitation do you take so seriously?"
Little Nezha turned his head with a serious face:
"have no idea."
Gu Sheng almost mixed his left foot with his right foot.
"I don't know you take it so seriously?!"
"It's because I don't know, so I read it seriously!"
The little Nezha old god was shaking his head, justified.
"Ok fine~"
Gu Sheng spread his hands and said that he could not refute:
"Then what do you see?"
"You don't seem to be fooling around." Shen Miaomiao glanced at Gu Cheng, "If I see something, do I still have to call you over?"
I……
Gu Cheng found that little Nezha was getting more and more choking now, and he didn't know who he learned from.
"Here, let's take a look,"
Shen Miaomiao turned the screen to face Gu Sheng, and muttered to herself:
"It seems to be some kind of developer conference? But haven't we already attended the developer conference? Isn't that held every four years? Has the time been changed? CEED didn't tell us?"
Developer conference?
Gu Sheng stepped forward to check.
After a while, he opened his mouth and said:
"Because this matter... does not belong to China Entertainment Television."
good!
On the computer screen, it was an invitation letter from the "Global Game Developers Conference (GDC)" jointly organized by the International Data Corporation of the United States and United Enterprise Media Technology Network!
As the golden winds have done a great job in the past year, the achievements are outstanding.
Therefore, the organizer will break the rules and invite Golden Wind to participate in this conference!
and!
[The grandeur and solemnity of the Titan's fall is impressive, the narrative structure of Silent Hill PT is refreshing, and the rhythm of escape is even more impressive]
[Therefore, we sincerely invite Mr. SamGu to bring us relevant analysis and speeches on "The Future Development Prospects and Shaping Methods of Movie-style Games"]
[I believe that your company's unique game expression form will definitely add luster to this conference]
[At the same time, it also brings new inspiration to the global game upgrade and progress]
【We are waiting for your reply】
——Global Game Developers Conference (GDC)
"Look, isn't this a developer conference?"
Shen Miaomiao pointed to the signature and said:
"Didn't we participate before? Why are we here again?"
heard!
Seeing Gu Sheng chuckled: "Because the two of them are not the same thing at all,"
"The one we participated in before was called the 'Asian E-sports Game Developers Conference', or the Asian Games for short,"
"It is an event within Asia, mainly aimed at the development of e-sports games,"
"But now you see this—"
talking.
Gu Sheng pointed to the invitation letter on the computer:
“This is called the ‘Global Game Developers Conference’, or GDC for short,”
"It's a game communication activity, it doesn't have the nature of a competition, but it's more about communication and publicity,"
"and--"
"It's global."
Global!
Gu Sheng emphatically embodies these three words.
The eyes are shining!
GDC roll call invitation!
Portions are heavy!
Gu Sheng is no stranger to GDC.
This exchange conference existed in his previous life, and it is usually held in Los Angeles in May and June every year. It aims to unite the world's top game developers and manufacturers to share ideas and discuss industrial technology upgrades and conceptual innovations.
Of course, at the same time, some unique and innovative game previews will also be released during the conference.
Perhaps its popularity is not as exaggerated as the world's four major game exhibitions.
But with its professionalism, it is enough to be called one of the most influential game events in the world.
but.
It is different from the previous life.
In this world, manufacturers directly invited by GDC are usually some of the world's top game manufacturers or developers.
The organizer has requirements for the size of the company.
Judging from the current size of the Golden Wind, they who have not yet entered the billion club seem to be unable to meet the invitation criteria.
but!
With the blessing of works such as Titanfall, PT, Going to the Moon, and Escape, which is currently in the limelight, their influence is quite outstanding!
Ever since!
GDC chooses to break the rules and invite out of the ordinary!
To this!
It is a lie for Gu Sheng to say that he is not excited.
To know!
Up to now, although the games produced by Golden Wind are not small.
However, there are not many activities that I have participated in, and most of them are domestically focused.
Such as Yiyou's small game festival, CEET's media exhibition.
The only event that can be regarded as a large-scale event is the Asian Games.
but!
Even for the Asian Games, the center of gravity of its sphere of influence is basically only in Asia.
And GDC is an international exchange conference!
If you decide to participate, GDC will be the first global game communication event that Golden Wind has ever participated in!
It is an important step for them to move from domestic to international!
and!
If they can shine in GDC and get widespread attention from the industry and global players, they can start planning to enter the world's four major game exhibitions!
Think here!
Gu Sheng's mind changed rapidly, and he quickly redeployed the development plan!
Originally, if there was no GDC, he was going to take advantage of the victory to give Komela a face-riding output and teach them to write Chinese.
But now, the invitation to GDC is here.
He can take advantage of this wave of opportunities and find a stable foothold in the international game circle first.
Afterwards, use GDC as a springboard to take part in the next Dongjin Video Game Festival, standing in the same arena with Komela, and under the attention of the whole world, fight with real swords and guns! ! !
Yes!
Although in theory, as long as you are not too hip, you can sign up for the four major game exhibitions in the world.
But signing up to participate is not what Gu Sheng wants.
He didn't want to stand in the corner like a minion like that time when CETV didn't realize it.
What he wants is an infield qualification, an official stage, and an opportunity to show the charm of the golden wind to the world!
And GDC is the passport to enter the infield!
This time, they will not only be invited to participate, but also take advantage of the trend to make an innovative project!
"...It turns out that this activity is so powerful."
After listening to Gu Sheng's introduction, Shen Miaomiao suddenly realized——
This is a small step for the wind of gold, but also a big step for entering the international market.
Shen Miaomiao has no objection to continuing to expand the influence and increase the company's size and popularity.
Because the company's volume increases, it means that they can use more investment funds.
At present, among the games they have produced, Titanfall is the most expensive, with a total of 170 million, which is equivalent to about 25 million dollars.
And this is still far from what the game industry calls a '3S-level' masterpiece.
After all, the definition of '3S' in the industry is 'S-level cost', 'S-level volume' and 'S-level quality'.
The only S-level standard that Titanfall can meet is quality.
In other words, in terms of cost, they still have a lot of room to play.
As for influence, Shen Miaomiao didn't want it.
Because the greater the influence, the more player audience, and the more player audience, the more people will buy the game.
But there is no way.
As the company grows, its influence will increase day by day, and the two are directly proportional.
Therefore, Shen Miaomiao could only hope that when Lao Gu would lose his head and do the same operation as Ke Meila.
It is said that Silent Hill’s sales on the first day were only about 50,000 copies. Good guy, even if Comera’s creation is impossible, it can sell 50,000 points every day, and it only sells 350,000 copies of the game in a week, which is 9.8 million dollars.
Compared with the cost of 67 million knives, there is a difference of 57.2 million knives!
If this were my project...
Tut tut.
I can rebate more than 40 billion yuan.
Don't say that wealth is free to drive yachts in this life. When I die, I can even burn seven or eight real yachts to accompany it.
It's really eye-catching.
but!
She can only be envious, after all, the manager cannot be changed, so she can only hang under the tree of Lao Gu.
"Then... shall we prepare a project to participate in the meeting?"
Now that you are determined to participate!
It's time to think about what game project to prepare for the conference!
After all, Lao Gu attaches great importance to this GDC, and even called it "a foothold in the international market".
Therefore, this time they not only need to attend conferences and give speeches, but also take this opportunity to launch a corresponding work.
Only in this way can we maximize the popularity and response of this trip to GDC and gain enough prestige for them.
So!
The choice of game theme and form is very important.
This is a new project.
Shen Miaomiao will not intervene too much, and will go all out to cooperate with Lao Gu and strive to make the project a great success.
After all, only if the project is successful can she start the sub-project and enjoy the odds inherited from the main project.
【Main profit and sub loss】
This is Shen Miaomiao's current project strategy.
"Yeah, what kind of game do you want to play?"
Hearing this, Gu Sheng also sat on the sofa, crossed his shoulders and frowned in thought.
Sometimes, too many choices can be an annoyance.
Thanks to his escape, the emotional value in his hands is relatively rich now, and there are many games that can be unlocked.
Gu Sheng had never fought such a rich battle, and he was a little bit at a loss for a while.
"The Future Development Prospects and Shaping Methods of Cinematic Games"
no doubt.
The heroic ending of the Titanfall before, and the moving script of going to the moon and reversing, left a deep impression on the organizers and caused quite a stir in the game circle.
Therefore, this time they participated in GDC, the works they launched must be related to the "movie game".
"Movie-like games... what can I do?"
Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes, flipping through a large number of games in his mind——
Is it "The Invisible Guardian" with an exquisite script and full of red spirit?
No, the script of this game is good, but the gameplay is weak.
Is "The Order 1886" presented with a 2.40:1 movie-style screen ratio from beginning to end?
No way, this game was criticized by the media because of its mediocre gameplay.
What about Detroit: Become Human?
This is a good choice, whether it is story or visual performance, it is completely a standard interactive movie.
But the art form was still too advanced for this world.
And in terms of gameplay, Detroit is not even as good as The Order 1886, which is completely an interactive movie.
Then the problem comes!
Isn't there a game that combines the artistry of cinematic storytelling with eye-catching playability?
The answer is of course yes!
That is the famous next-generation standard 3A masterpiece - "The Last of Us"!
And its ultimate psychopathic sequel, The Last of Us Part 2: Golf Club! (The suffix is Gu Sheng's joke)
Bundle of two! It will definitely shock the world!
But my emotional value is not enough!
Haha fuck you.
worry.
Gu Sheng covered his face, thought hard, and casually said to little Nezha:
"By the way, our theme this time is a movie-style game. Aren't you the best at drawing inspiration from movies? Give me some inspiration?"
"Ah I?"
Hearing this, Shen Miaomiao shrank her neck.
My heart said, don't embarrass me soon.
At the beginning, I was just talking nonsense, and it was all just to take you to fish with me, but you can remember it until now.
But you can't say this in front of Gu Sheng!
Therefore, Shen Miaomiao could only bite the bullet and falter:
"Ah... ah, this...I haven't watched much movies lately,"
"But I think... uh... since our project is so important..."
"Can take inspiration from some classic movies... huh?"
Shen Miaomiao spoke carefully.
But Gu Sheng was quite interested: "For example?"
"For example...such as..."
While hesitating, Shen Miaomiao opened IMDB - a professional movie rating website.
Roll the mouse and start to scroll down the leaderboard:
"Like Lord of the Rings?"
Gu Sheng shook his head: "It's not easy to negotiate copyright."
"Forrest Gump?"
"Inspirational films, there is almost no possibility of gamification."
"boxing Club?"
"The conflict is too limited, it is difficult to form an effective game script, and it is not suitable for developing gameplay."
"Then it's really nothing, and if you go up, it will be the number one movie on the site,"
Shen Miaomiao shrugged:
"The Shawshank Redemption, isn't this movie even less gamified? We can't let players dig tunnels, can we?"
Shen Miaomiao curled her lips, feeling that these classic movies seem to be far from games, and they don't have much reference value.
However!
In the next second, Gu Sheng said, "What a great idea!"
Shen Miaomiao:?
"What's a good idea?" Shen Miaomiao was a little confused, "Why is it such a good idea? You want players to dig tunnels?"
no?
Are you really a psychopath?
What are the protagonists of other people's games?
Lonely hero! Top players! super driver!
The protagonist of our game is... a labor reform prisoner?
What the hell is a reform-through-labour prisoner trying to escape?
This game design concept is too hellish, right?
Shen Miaomiao was full of question marks!
But Gu Sheng's eyes were shining brightly! (the other one is swollen)
"Put the player in a prison and let the player find a way to escape from prison. This is a good idea!"
Gu Sheng clapped his hands again and again:
"Okay! Good good! Great! Just do this!"
ah? ? ?
Shen Miaomiao was dumbfounded and trembled in her heart!
broken!
He has become the warden! ——
