For Fang Xi, his most valuable asset in the last time and space is probably his knowledge of games.

There is an analogy that humans’ exploration of a certain field has always been a state of blind people, because you don’t know whether you have discovered all of this field, and you don’t know whether this field will cross-react with other fields to produce new ones. field. Therefore, people’s understanding of each field has been constantly updated, just like the ancient people have cultivated fields for thousands of years. Farmers at that time could not believe that later times could yield thousands of catties per mu, nor could they believe that a person sitting and controlling The room can manage thousands of acres of space by one person at the touch of a button.

The game field is similar.

In the game industry that Fang Xi saw in the last time and space, the development of the game industry in the last time and space in the 21st century can be described as rapid. With the continuous increase of network bandwidth around the world, the boundary between stand-alone games and online games has quickly become blurred.

After that, gamers gradually figured out the two most important points of a game: gameplay and sociality, and competition.

Traditional online games have gradually begun to take the most extreme social path. Competitive games born on traditional online games have introduced the concept of "symmetrical competition" after slightly reducing social elements, that is, the two sides are competing under completely symmetrical conditions.

The game finally born in this environment is a mobile game, which takes up fragmented time and more convenient sociality, and has achieved unexpected success. When analyzing mobile games, many people are accustomed to comparing mobile games and page games together for a reason, because the two have similar user positioning.

In other words, in the field of electronic games, the general public is now very simple to distinguish between online games and stand-alone games.

But in the not-too-distant future, the types of this game will become terminal games, competitive games, and mobile games.

Among them, the cost of mobile games is high, but the victory lies in the safety of investment. Competitive games require high operating costs. Although mobile games have the advantage of not high investment, the battle in this field is more than ten times more **** than that of mobile games. At that time, Huaxia established and produced projects every year. There are close to thousands of mobile games, but no more than 50 can reach the player's eyes in the end, and no more than five can survive the test of living time for more than one year, and these five can earn word-of-mouth double harvest and operate for three years. Above, it is even more likely that none of them are available.

Although everyone of these three categories are video games, they are already three categories of games that are not related to each other from the perspective of their core. Fang Xi has also consciously divided into categories after more projects in the company, only the same A category of games is classified into the same department so that the maximum use of resources can be achieved.

Therefore, at the recent meeting, Fang Xi officially merged the WEB game department and the mobile game department, and promoted Tao Junyi as the person in charge, with Wu Zihang assisting.

The R&D departments of "Eternal", "FIFA", and "Code Name: Autumn Mountain" formally form the competitive game research sequence. The chief person in charge is numerical planner Lu Wanqi. The core of this department is balance-the core of competitive games is "symmetric". , And symmetrical translation means balance.

Finally, other games can be regarded as a large development cluster: "Assassin", "No Man's Sky", "GTA", "October" and other games are not related to each other, but many things are available in these development groups. Learn from each other.

For example, Unmanned's Deep Sky can refer to the Assassin's Holy Order for the compilation of the planet's history. The research and development of "GTA" plans to draw some comic-style game propaganda maps. This part of the talent demand can also be rented from "Bafang". In fact, to put it plainly, the core of all current terminal games is storytelling, and storytelling is nothing more than a burden. In this respect, everyone has the same thing. Fang Xi simply took the lead in letting the three R&D clusters open once a month. Brainstorm on the Internet to exchange inspiration.

For Hongyi this year, the fastest growing is the development sequence of competitive games. Fang Xi took some things that Xiaolan put on his desk and needed to decide by himself. The first thing was the three divisions of the "Eternal" event. Where will this year's World Championships be held? I almost missed a fight.

Fang Xi looked at and directly circled Su Luo's proposal "Los Angeles" with a red pen. Because of the organizer behind E3, ESA Chairman Doug just negotiated with himself last week about Fang Xi’s previous proposal to hold a game show comparable to E3 in Asia. He reciprocated, Fang Xi felt that it would be placed every week. It’s not unreasonable for ESA to get involved in the competitions with tens of millions of dollars in prize money.

After delineating the venue, Fang Xi also wrote a note: In the future, the location of the "Eternal" World Tournament will be determined in June each year, and then announced directly at the World Tournament to arouse the enthusiasm of players.

...

One afternoon passed quickly in the office. Fang Xi met Professor DAN who had visited the VR laboratory during dinner.

A little different from noon, Professor Dan at this time was full of naked-eye agitation, his expression was excited, and he exchanged ideas with the person in charge of the VR lab next to him.

Fang Xi exchanged glances with Dr. VR with thick hair. It seems that the matter of digging out DAN to come to Hongyi is basically stable.

DAN's behavior reminded Fang Xi of his childhood. When he was a child, he claimed to be a young man, and he dismissed any games until the child of a distant relative brought Transformers toys.

That afternoon, Xiao Fangxi, who had never seen Transformers, was still excited to play in the house for an afternoon of "Transformation Autobots."

For DAN, this VR is a new field he hasn't touched before, and it is visible to the naked eye that can change the world, and this standard American doctor also gave Fang Xi an interesting suggestion.

"FANG, this virtual world that you can see and touch, do you know what I thought of first?" At this time, DR.DAN looked uncontrollable with excitement, and asked Fang Xi this question .

Fang Xi didn't hesitate: "War."

Professor Dan raised his eyebrows, and he was a little surprised that Fang Xi knew him so clearly.

Fang Xi chuckled. He can't say that he has read countless movies. Alien invasion of the earth himself can write a hundred reasons in every minute:

"Once this device is successful, the training of many military skills will cost nothing more than a little electricity bill, and a virtual world that can be reckless and reckless can improve social stability, and at the same time, the virtual world can bring out a real virtual economy industrial chain. For everyone, it will become as indispensable as air."

"So it's like a kind of our unique resource. This kind of resource can bring great benefits, but other countries can't get any benefit from it, so the suspicion dispute was born." Professor Dan added.

Listening to Professor Dan's "we" Fang Xi was overjoyed, and tried his best to hold back a smile, and asked:

"Professor Nadan mean?"

"I imagine BOSS you made my first suggestion for entry."
