Chapter 146 I Understand (Part 2)

From Huang Ping's point of view, Fangcheng's games are as exciting as ever.

This is not bragging or flattery, but the true feelings of a game lover.

Not to mention the screen performance, item interaction, and various systems, there is a natural feeling that is emerging, which makes Huang Ping feel that the games made by Fangcheng have become more and more flavorful.

Every literary and artistic work has its own taste, novels, movies, games, animations... This taste may come from a certain line or a certain expression, but it is this detail that perfectly shows the taste of the game, making people remember this immediately game.

And with the increasing number of games produced, the games made by Fangcheng are being perfected at a speed visible to the naked eye, which makes Huang Ping have to worry about how to make him more perfect, so as to improve the quality of this game a little bit. .

It's just that this process is getting more and more difficult, but it also further forces him to squeeze his own potential, and then obtain greater improvement.

A few days later, the new game "I am the Director" was adjusted.

Xiaodouzi has also completed the numerical configuration, and adjusted various related game systems. The completion of the entire game has become very high, and it can be released at any time.

Judging from the progress of the project, the progress of the game this time is still very smooth. None of the common problems in the ordinary game development process have appeared, and the whole process is smoother than eating Dove.

But the more so, the more Huang Ping felt wrong.

Not only him, Xiaodouzi and Monkey also felt that this game was very abnormal.

The process of game development is quite metaphysical. The more you feel that there is no problem, the more there is a problem; the more you feel that there is a problem, then there is really a big problem.

But no matter how they played, they still couldn't think of the problem, and finally had to give up temporarily.

On Friday, the three planners after get off work found that each other was fine, so this week's planning night started logically.

I don’t know when it will start, but the second Friday of every month is the usual meeting time for the three of them. Everyone will buy all kinds of food and snacks, and then go to Huang Ping’s house to eat and play games until noon the next day. The show ended after dinner.

Huang Bin's girlfriend will go to the girlfriend's house on this night, and they will also start their girlfriend's night, just to leave the house to Huang Ping and the three of them.

Although the biggest age difference between the three is fourteen years old, this does not prevent them from discovering that they have similar interests and personalities, and then become good friends.

This kind of friendship that can be established after work is quite rare in the eyes of the three of them.

With drinks, beer and various barbecues, the three sat down on the sofa in the living room, watched a Stephen Chow movie while eating, and then opened "Who is the Champion" to watch tonight's show.

After eating and drinking, they chatted for a while about the latest game developments, and chatted about Tianyi's ongoing game promotion, and finally the topic finally fell on the latest games.

Huang Ping took a sip of beer, then frowned and asked, "Have you noticed that the game the boss made this time is not quite right?"

"Yeah." Xiaodouzi nodded, "The visual effects of the game are remarkable, the sound effects of the game are in place, the small animations when filming the show are very interesting, the more complete the various systems are, but I just It doesn't feel right."

The monkey beside him drank peach-flavored Coke, scratched his chin and said, "I don't think it's very good, but I feel like there's something hidden in the game."

"Me too, I feel that the boss has committed a bad taste again." Huang Ping sighed.

"That's not a bad taste, it's a characteristic." Xiaodouzi said reverently, "Only the boss can hide the Easter eggs in such an extraordinary way."

"...Fanatics are terrible, but why do I think what you say makes sense?"

Now, Fangcheng Studio Games likes to bury easter eggs in the game, which is already a well-known stalk.

At station B, some people will even popularize this stalk, and use "this is an easter egg" to refer to certain flips or "the big one is coming".

From the perspective of players, the game itself is just an appetizer, and the easter eggs are the main meal.

This stalk is even more famous than the games made by Fangcheng Studio. It can also be seen from this that the influence of games on mainstream culture is gradually deepening.

And when they thought about Fang Cheng's hidden stalks in the game, they didn't find out, which made Huang Ping's three planners feel a little negligent, and the bonus they got a few days ago was a bit hot.

The happy atmosphere just now was immediately suppressed, and only the tidbits of "Who Is the Champion" remained in the room. Lao Wang said that the famous scene of the game asking "Why?" with a blank face.

After being silent for a while, Huang Ping took out the USB flash drive in his pocket and said seriously: "I copied the game after get off work, do you want to watch it together?"

"Old Huang, you're crazy!" Xiaodouzi turned pale with shock, "You have a criminal record. Have you forgotten about the "Botanical Garden"? How dare you?"

"But I really can't help it anymore. I must unravel this secret." Huang Ping said firmly.

Looking at the USB flash drive the size of a little finger in Lao Huang's hand, Xiaodouzi and the monkey seemed to have seen Pandora's box, and they couldn't help becoming nervous.

They really want to work overtime now, see the hidden secrets in the game, and find out the truth of the game, but they are afraid that their boss, Fang Cheng, will find out.

After being discovered, they can only accept compensatory leave, and maybe they will even make up the next weekend together.

In the Fangcheng studio, the biggest punishment might be not being allowed to go to work. .

After thinking about it for a long time, Xiaodouzi gave a thought, and then said: "Let's watch and discuss secretly, without writing documents or keeping records. The boss is still a god? How can we know that we have worked overtime like this?"

"Well, it makes sense." Huang Ping nodded.

"This time I'm on Xiaodouzi's side." The monkey also nodded.

After reaching a consensus, the three couldn't wait to turn on the computer and plug in the USB flash drive. The three of them looked at the screen together and started the game secretly.

After these days of additions, the game has become more complete.

Now, the novice guide has been produced, the game system guide has been perfected, and there is almost no burden for new players to play the game.

The game can be played stand-alone or connected to the Internet. If connected to the Internet, you can visit the programs that others are making, and you can even make a guest appearance in other people's games. It is a small easter egg.

However, Huang Ping knew that this was definitely not a big easter egg arranged by Fang Cheng.

The real big Easter eggs are things that can change the gameplay.

Why didn't the boss know that they were working overtime in private, Huang Ping deliberately cut off his own network and started the single-player game.

After directly closing the novice guide, Huang Ping quickly and officially opened the game.

This time, Huang Ping discovered that Fang Cheng had deliberately made a subtraction, limiting the gameplay to a very simple one.

That is to continuously select employees, train employees, and then let employees produce various programs for themselves.

Although the player needs to handle everything from program arrangement to the final actual broadcast, but the whole process only needs to be clicked, and then the staff can be assigned, and it can be started almost instantly.

The various performances in the game are humorous, the random events are sufficient, and the animations are rich and large in number, which makes the game not monotonous.

However, unlike the simplicity of the gameplay, the game actually has room for deep thinking.

Different employees have different tags, and correspondingly, different programs also have different tags.

when the labels of the two coincide. The action efficiency of employees will be greatly improved, resulting in better program effects.

In addition, there are also matching effects between programs, and with the development of the game, players will find that different times will have different effects on the game. These are the corresponding details that can be found in reality.

After matching and finally relaxing the show, players can see the final ratings of the show and see what viewers are saying.

This link is Huang Ping's favorite link.

The ratings determine the final effect of the entire program and the financial subsidies above. A program must be good enough to get high ratings.

And through the audience's comments, you can see whether the collocation direction of the whole program is correct, and you can predict in advance what themes and collocations that the audience likes in the near future through the comments.

Although he didn't know what method Fang Cheng used, after several attempts, Huang Ping found that the audience's comments were flexible and changeable, as if a group of live audiences were standing in front of the TV to make comments.

They can accurately know what themes and collocations are used by the players. Some people can even recognize old acquaintances, and there are even some professional film critics who introduce the pros and cons of the program in a serious manner.

The comments were either humorous or harsh. Some comments can make people laugh, but some comments can also break people's defenses.

This game is highly random, and the final result may be affected by many factors.

Sometimes, if a large amount of money is invested, the ratings will plummet if there is a negative news about the actors involved, and the result will be no results.

But sometimes, even if the capital investment is not much, if it is just on the top of the wind. Then the show might be a hit too. Then earn a fortune.

In the game, player income mainly comes from the activity funds issued above and advertising expenses.

The expenses include various service fees, reporter interview fees, program arrangement fees, and employee salaries.

After a re-experience, the three of Huang Ping originally wanted to find the easter eggs, but after playing for a while, they began to immerse themselves in the game and began to re-discuss the effects of each combination.

"I used to think that funny and suspense don't go well together, but the actual effect is surprisingly good, and the feedback from the audience is also very good. Is this combination wrong?" Monkey asked suspiciously.

"I think it's because the funny attribute can dilute the tension brought by the suspense and let the audience relax. And I have to say that many times the audience actually doesn't like reasoning. They just need an attractive story that they can immerse themselves in. Just one click. And if the story is interesting, that's even better," Huang Ping explained.

"Well, that makes sense. How about we try combining funny and gangster? What do you think we could call this show?"

"Dark society?"

"Hmm, sounds like a joke. So how do you guys feel about dancing and gangsters?"

"I imagined it... Please give me a brain that hasn't thought about such a thing."

"Forget it, let's watch the dancing and gangsters first."

"Don't... you're running out of money."

"late!"

When the themes are combined and handed over to the screenwriter, the program can begin to be formally produced.

In the official production process, the stage will show different animation performance effects according to the themes selected by the players.

For example, if it is gangsters and dancing, then you can see a group of men in black suits with tattoos on their backs and scars all over their faces appearing on the stage.

Just by looking at their looks, one can tell that these people are regulars on the most wanted list, the kind that the police have to empty their magazines when they see each other.

However, the group started singing and dancing on stage.

The big bald men gathered together holding hands, wearing white ballet costumes, and then began to dance the four little swans.

They dance gracefully and move gracefully. Although they look extremely eye-catching, I don’t know why, but I feel quite emotional after watching too much.

Seeing this scene, Huang Ping, who had objected just now, immediately laughed out loud, and even Xiaodouzi also laughed.

Strange combinations often bring more interesting feelings to the players in front of the screen, which can be regarded as a small easter egg.

But still not enough.

After laughing, Huang Ping rubbed his stomach and said, "Oh, no, I'm almost out of money. Fortunately, I saved the file before. Otherwise, this combination alone would be enough to make us bankrupt."

The monkey nodded: "That's right, there is always a shortage of funds for this game. You need money to buy a good table book, hire employees, and train employees. Why should I pay for them? ah?"

He originally made a casual comment, but Xiaodouzi was stunned, as if he understood something.

Pulling the monkey, he asked seriously, "What did you just say?"

"Why should I give money?"

Hearing this sentence, Xiaodouzi seemed to have a flash of lightning in his mind.

He quickly restarted the game and began to keep trying, repeatedly trying to open the plot.

After several attempts, he stared at the screen and began to meditate. After ten minutes, he quickly restarted the game and continued to try.

Seeing Xiaodouzi so nervous, Huang Ping didn't dare to say a word, and it was useless to say it.

At this time, Xiaodouzi has completely entered the working state, and he can't hear no matter what he says.

Finally, Xiaodouzi slammed the keyboard and said excitedly, "I understand."

Turning his head, Huang leveled the screen and finally saw the abnormality.

In the asset column, Xiaodouzi's assets have broken through seven figures, but his staff numbers are not good, and the equipment of the program group is also tattered, which does not match his actual assets at all.

After recalling Xiaodouzi's operations, Huang Ping also nodded and said, "I see, I understand."

Thank you for the 100-point reward from ordinary book friends who passed by 2049, and the 100-point reward from Starry Sky Love Galaxy, thank you.

Three more will be delivered later.
