This game is awesome

Editor Lin couldn't help but change the subject, "The editor-in-chief thinks RPGmaker still has great potential. It's really surprising that you decided to release it for free."

"Well, if I collect royalties, I can make a lot of money, but I still hope that there will be more creative newcomers in the industry..."

"If we only rely on the stars at this moment, it will not be enough to illuminate the dark sky of the industry."

Sure enough, this is the Mr. Gu I am familiar with!

Such a profound understanding of justice made those who heard it cry and those who saw it sad. Editor Lin sighed for a moment, and then discussed the issue of the next game with Gu Qingshi.

NGI still has high hopes for Fanxing's new work. Editor Lin has already known about Fanxing's recent recruitment and expansion. It is said that Fanxing has poached veterans from many large companies and seems to be interested in making a large-scale game.

"The next game is an anti-war game."

Anti-war theme, this is good.

Editor Lin was pleasantly surprised for a moment. Although the subject matter was a bit old-fashioned, whether the story was good or not depended on who told it!

Moreover, the subject matter is sufficiently "positive" and "politically correct", so they did not encounter much resistance in applying for recommendation.

“I want to use the game to help players recall the horrors of war and cherish the hard-won peace we have today.”

Yeah, the theme of love and justice, the main melody, good, good.

It seems that Ms. Gu is not the stubborn girl who is obsessed with unpopular themes as rumored! The material of this new game is well chosen. It just happens to be the 20th anniversary of the victory of the anti-imperialist and fascist war. This game can catch up with the popularity.

He had heard that the 20th anniversary celebration would be held in the capital, at the same time as the World Peace Summit and the World Game Expo. If an anti-war game could be unveiled, it would be more than just a "big splash".

Editor Lin was even more satisfied. "Mr. Gu, what do you think of a 6% commission rate for future cooperation?"

6%?

"Do you want to increase the price a bit?" Gu Qingshi asked with some guilt.

I'm afraid you'll lose money with this ratio...

Our next game is an FPS game...

"No, Mr. Gu! It's not easy for small companies to develop games now. I know Victoria has made a lot of money, but if it's a large-scale game, that money is still a little stretched."

"I'm not really short of money... If I were short of money, I could just give Victoria a discount..."

"Absolutely not, Mr. Gu!"

Editor Lin advised earnestly: "When you priced Victoria at 38, I wanted to advise you that 38 is too low. Even if you are indifferent to fame and fortune, you should consider the survival of other manufacturers. If small workshops are forced by the market to compete with low prices, they may cut development costs due to revenue issues, resulting in a decline in game quality."

If the water is extremely clear, there will be no fish; if people are careful, there will be no disciples!

There's really no other way. Since you've advised me like this, I have no choice but to obey you.

Gu Qingshi was silent, and could only say "oh", "Then let's go with 6%."

Editor Lin breathed a sigh of relief, "Mr. Gu, do you need anything else?"

"Can you send me a beautiful girl receptionist?"

Gu Qingshi was still obsessed with the empty front desk.

Chapter 54 [Song of the International Brigade]

Ten days passed and it was early February.

There was no news from the beautiful girl receptionist that Gu Qingshi wanted.

Gu Qingshi called Li Xiaomeng into the office and gave her a difficult task.

Let her develop a new game independently.

Li Xiaomeng was stunned when she heard the work content. I was just slacking off, and you asked me to work so intensively?

Li Xiaomeng has a simple dream, she wants to work hard until retirement.

This job was like a bolt from the blue for her.

"Boss, I don't have a script, no copywriter, no art, no music... I'm going to do it with my head!"

"But you are smart! You are a top student at the University of Finance and Economics!"

"No, I'm stupid..."

Gu Qingshi felt no sympathy for Li Xiaomeng's self-explosion and mercilessly handed the mission log to Li Xiaomeng.

"I've already put the script in there. For art, go borrow some from the developer. You can figure out the rest on your own."

Li Xiaomeng jumped and raised her hands, "Boss, I don't have music bacteria!"

"Has your brain turned into barbecued pork? What is the engine I asked you to build for?"

what?

Li Xiaomeng was stunned for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Can this game be made with RPGmaker?"

How mini is this thing?

"If it doesn't work, then find a way yourself~" Gu Qingshi laughed.

Li Xiaomeng opened the task log and happened to see the name of the game project.

Valiant Hearts: World War

------------

Li Xiaomeng's work was going smoothly, but An Yan was a little worried.

The development of a project ran into trouble.

After finishing the prologue, they did not proceed with the development of the first chapter step by step, but fast-forwarded to the Easter egg level.

Because this part is quite tricky and cannot be put off until later, otherwise if it gets stuck in the later stage, the launch of the game will be delayed. The sooner this part is resolved, the better.

There are three parts in the Easter egg level, namely "Seagulls Cross the South Bank Again", "When the World Was Young", and "The Bells of Kabul"

The most problematic part is the second Easter egg level, "When the World was Young".

An Yan didn't know why Gu Qingshi gave this level such a confusing name, but she knew very well that the younger the world, the harder it would be to find information!

This level is about the International Brigade that appeared in the Spanish Civil War.

In July 1936, a civil war broke out in Spain between the Republican government and the military rebel government. At the same time, some foreign expatriates and tourists who happened to be living or traveling in the war zone were either actively or passively involved in the local fighting.

The resistance activities of these people inspired the French Communist Party at the time. Faced with the interference of Germany and Italy in Spain and the increasingly critical situation of the Spanish Republican government, the French Communist Party proposed a motion to form an international volunteer army to support Spain's anti-fascist struggle.

Finally, this army composed of young people from all over the world who were passionate about the anti-fascist cause entered Spain and performed brilliantly.

This force is known as the "International Brigade" to later generations.

However, most of the information about the International Brigade is in the hands of collectors, and some is in the Barcelona Museum in Spain. Because of the long time, the information and archives about the International Brigade have not been preserved, and there is no trace of it on the government website.

As for the participants of the International Brigade... it's been almost a hundred years! Those young people have long gone! Where can we find living people to recount their experiences?

The entire development team was desperate.

If this part doesn't work, then you can only delete this part of the script.

An Yan went to the office and told Gu Qingshi the current situation helplessly.

Gu Qingshi was operating the RPGmaker sent by Li Xiaomeng, trying it out while listening to An Yan talking.

"In other words, we don't have any useful information at the moment?"

An Yan nodded.

This is a big problem, very tricky. Gu Qingshi couldn't think of any good solution for a while.

Go to Barcelona for research? But it’s a foreign museum and they are unfamiliar with the place. Will they open the information to them?

"Can we buy some from collectors?" Gu Qingshi asked.

"Acquisition is feasible, but..." An Yan said the problem helplessly, "We only have more than half a year to develop, and it is difficult to bet on how much useful information we can acquire in half a year."

"We also contacted several people in China who are said to be descendants of International Brigade fighters. They did have some letters left by their fathers, but they either asked for tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars, or they didn't want to make it public and wouldn't agree no matter what."

How many millions to buy those letters of yours? Gu Qingshi was also shocked.

Is your letter made of gold or silver?

"Is there no chance at all?" Gu Qingshi was a little annoyed. This part was a private task she added, and she felt a little disappointed to delete it for this reason.

"If I must say, there is one more thing."

An Yan said cautiously: "When we were contacting collectors, we found that an old gentleman had a lot of information, but he refused to sell it or even lend it out."

"Sister An, it's the same as if you didn't say anything..."

“Boss, but this old gentleman posted several posts online a few years ago, trying to complete a poem.”

Gu Qingshi understood a little, "So you want to pay someone to complete the poem to please the old man?"

Then, Gu Qingshi slowly shook her head.

"There has been no progress so far. I'm afraid it's not that easy to complete this poem?"

An Yan smiled awkwardly, "The old gentleman was not very satisfied with the new poems that were completed."

“That’s to be expected.”

But Gu Qingshi still breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as there is a breakthrough, it's just a poem. At most, I can spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to offer a reward online. There are so many talented people among netizens, there must be one that suits the old man, right?

"So what is that fragment of a poem about?"

Gu Qingshi was also interested in the content of the poem, which stumped the entire developer. It seemed that the old man had very high requirements for this poem.

"I'll get it for you right away."

After a while, An Yan came up with a photo album and then spread it out for Gu Qingshi to see.

Gu Qingshi took it and in the middle of the album was a replica of an old photo. The photo was yellowish in color and consisted of a piece of paper glued together from several scraps.

There were traces of dried blood on the paper, which covered a lot of the content with black blood. There were very few words that could be seen. Gu Qingshi could barely tell that it was a poem.
