This game is awesome

But it is obvious that Xinghuo Entertainment has long given up the idea of ​​making FPS games because: it is not profitable.

These are all bloody lessons from the past!

Our competitors are almost laughing their heads off.

.......

.......

When Bai Chengming learned that Fanxing's next game would be a war-themed FPS, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he often brags about the stars, he is not a fool.

If Gu Qingshi really wanted to make an RPG, just based on Fanxing's current popularity and appeal, then they, Longyuan, would have many powerful competitors out of thin air.

Now he felt relieved.

On the second day of the Chinese New Year, he didn't even have time to stay at home for long and went out to the airport to pick up guests.

This guy is a heavyweight.

Chino Osamu, the president of the Sanhe Society from District 11, has four popular RPGs under his belt that have sold over a million copies. He is experienced and well-versed.

Longyuan Finance, the company behind Longyuan Interactive Entertainment, spent a lot of effort to reach a cooperation with this big boss to jointly develop a new game.

In front of this wise man, Bai Chengming's status is not worth mentioning - Long Yuan arranged Bai Chengming's group to participate in the "development" just as a title, their real purpose is to learn from others' experience!

In a high-end restaurant, Bai Chengming, wearing a well-fitting suit, extended his hand to invite the rather decadent Zhiye to sit down.

Osamu Chino is now 56 years old and is about to join the ranks of elderly game developers. He looks like an ordinary old man, wearing sunglasses and with a meticulous expression.

"Nice to meet you, Bai-kun."

Zhiye nodded, and the old man spoke fluent Chinese.

"I've seen your Longyuan games. Excuse me, they're all just bullshit. If it weren't for the invitation from Yungong's president, I would never have reached a cooperation agreement with your company."

The old man's words were very unpleasant and Bai Chengming's face froze.

This insult was completely merciless!

"During the development of Scarlet Illusion, I hope your company can maintain a learning attitude instead of just pointing fingers at us."

Bai Chengming forced himself to maintain a smile on his face.

"I understand."

Zhiye's expression softened a bit, "I'm worried about the quality of the game, and I'm a bit too serious. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation, Bai Jun."

Fortunately, if you don't touch the bottom line, this old man is easy to get along with. Bai Chengming secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although people scolded him harshly, he was of course very clear about what he was doing.

If given the opportunity, who would like to make a skin-covering online game?

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the relationship between the two people became much closer.

Taking advantage of the wine, Bai Chengming introduced the domestic situation to Zhiye Xiuhe, "There are still many good games in China, such as Yungong's "Xiandu" this year and Gulang's "Eastern World" released a few years ago, both of which are classic RPG masterpieces. I believe you also know..."

Zhiye's face flushed from drinking, and he answered modestly, "Yungong and Gulang, I often heard their names in District 11, but I'm afraid our enemies this year are not these two."

Bai Chengming sobered up instantly.

Zhiye Xiuhe has a wide network of contacts and is a close friend of Yungong’s boss. According to him, Yungong and Gulang will not be making an RPG this year?

This is great news!

"what do you mean?"

"Yungong intends to do RTS, and Gulang has developed a secret project internally, which I don't know. Our opponent this year is a manufacturer from the Peninsula Country, and of course, there is also the rising star in your country."

"peninsula?"

Bai Chengming frowned.

Manufacturers in the Peninsula country are very good at making MMORPGs, but they are far from being rivals of Region 11, Europe, the United States, and China when it comes to narrative-driven RPGs.

Could it be Peninsula Entertainment?

Bai Chengming suddenly understood.

Peninsula Corporation is the largest enterprise in Peninsula Country and has always had close ties with the United States.

If Peninsula Entertainment chooses to cooperate with external parties like Long Yuan did, such as game manufacturers in the United States, it may become a real rival.

So who are the domestic competitors? Which dark horse has emerged in China that has been praised so highly by Zhiye Xiuhe?

Zhiye Xiuhe said drunkenly: "Especially the studio in your country, they are very creative. If the young girl producer who is rare in a thousand years is wise enough, she will definitely choose the RPG path."

The more Bai Chengming listened, the more puzzled he felt.

Studio, creative, teenage producer.

Bai Chengming asked with a strange look on his face: "What's the name of the studio you mentioned?"

Zhiye Xiuhe looked at Bai Chengming strangely and asked in confusion: "Even though I am in District 11, I often hear that Fanxing Studio is praised by game makers. As a Chinese game developer, don't you know the names of Victoria and Fanxing?"

......

Development log: We are preparing for the EA test on Friday and setting up a discussion group based on player opinions.

Now a democratic referendum is being issued. If you think it is necessary to set up a group, please deduct 1 vote

(Mainly if there are too few people, the group will be too quiet and it is better not to create it)

Chapter 67 [March Wind]

"What? They're going to make a war-themed shooting game!?"

Chino Osamu was shocked when he saw the promotional video of "Battlefield" on his mobile phone screen.

"What a mess! There are obviously better ways to go, why do you want to touch on such a niche subject!?"

The anti-war sentiment in District 11 is much stronger than that in the country. After World War II, they were directly affected by a bottom-up civil war and joined the East Asian Peace and Neutrality Union led by the authorities. After that, they experienced repeated French-style civil wars. Finally, the pro-foreign government stabilized the situation thirty years ago.

So now there is an almost extreme anti-war trend in District 11, advocating the good boy concept of "don't fight back when beaten, don't talk back when scolded, and peace is supreme". Whenever encountering a problem, the first thing people in District 11 do is to reflect on themselves...

So when Zhiye Xiuhe heard that Fanxing was going to make "Battlefield", he felt heartbroken.

Although there are many successful cases of war-themed FPS, the subject matter is still not up to par. Zhiye Xiuhe thinks that Gu Qingshi is completely wasting her amazing talent.

Even Bai Chengming wasn't that excited.

Although Zhiye Xiuhe felt sorry for Fanxing, it was obviously a good thing for them that Fanxing chose the FPS track.

"Then the only place we need to be careful is the peninsula."

Sure enough, it was Peninsula Entertainment.

Bai Chengming was shocked. This guy is a heavyweight and has the support of Citibank behind him. The threat he poses is equivalent to that of Yun Palace and Gulang.

Bai Chengming quickly asked: "Do you know anything about Peninsula Entertainment?"

Zhiye Xiuhe frowned and said, "They are despicable businessmen who use games as a means to suck the balance of players' wallets. They don't care about the fun and artistic content of the game at all."

Bai Chengming was a little embarrassed.

Why do I feel like I'm being named?

"Especially since they are notorious liars and egomaniacs."

Bai Chengming was curious and asked, "For example?"

Zhiye Xiuming said contemptuously: "They claim that the Spring Festival is a traditional festival of the people of the Peninsula, that the lunar calendar was invented by their ancient ancestors, the Goguryeo people, and that Mr. Qu Yuan and the Dragon Boat Festival are also native to the Peninsula."

"Even someone like me from District 11 who doesn't know much about Chinese culture knows that they are a bunch of pathetic clowns who have deceived even themselves."

“What do you think of the Battlefield trailer released by Fanxing?”

This is an anonymous statement on a well-known evaluation forum.

"Well done, don't do it next time."

"Even an outsider like me is worried about Fanxing. This time Fanxing is really too proud to try out the unpopular theme of war FPS, where anyone who touches it will die..."

"It won't be a violent death, but it will probably end miserably. I hope Mr. Gu can learn a lesson this time and take those who flatter Bao Si's advice to heart. No matter how suicidal Mr. Gu is, he is still eighteen years old and has a bright future..."

"Xingpi tastes good. Sweating emoji"

"Chu Teng, remember to change to a smaller account next time. The smell of Xingpi is leaking out."

After seeing these questioning comments, the development team felt a little relieved.

It's horrible that no one is criticizing this!

This time there were no malicious negative reviews from competitors. The promotion and publicity of "Battlefield" was disappointing and no public opinion was formed. At most, players complained in their own circles. Gu Qingshi has been feeling sorry for the poor output of competitors these days.

She even wanted to hire some internet trolls to join the gang.

On the contrary, the delivery of the professional edition of Victoria caused a small stir and was reported and reprinted by various media outlets.

This is the first time that electronic games have been included in the extracurricular education content of higher education institutions. Although the University of Finance and Economics has not yet officially put the "innovative teaching model" into full use, it is still big news for the industry.

In comparison, the Battlefield trailer seems a bit childish.

But not all big names are ignoring Battlefield.

As the wind of March blew into China, Fanxing Studio also reopened. The development team arrived at Beihai Villa at the beginning of the month, eager to finish the game.

The development of the professional version of "Victoria" has come to an end. A dozen shy college students from the second development department have just arrived in Le'an from all over the country, ready to join the development project of "Battlefield".

In the office, Gu Qingshi looked puzzled and called An Yan over.
