This game is awesome

Although he looks stupid, Pei E doesn't dare to underestimate Li Xiaomeng as he is Gu Qingshi's right-hand man.

"Director Li, who do you think will win the grand prize this year?"

"I can't come..."

Li Xiaomeng said that she was a fool and didn't understand these things, and continued to read Long Aotian's silly online novel.

Pei E was relentless, "What do you think of Longyuan? Backed by Longyuan Finance, it has strong financial resources, and it has made friends with Zhiye Xiuhe, so it has a strong army and horses."

Li Xiaomeng was so absorbed in the novel that he didn't want to bother with Pei E, so he said casually:

"Long Yuan, Bai Chengming is brave but not wise, and Zhiye Xiuhe is over sixty years old. He is old and weak. He is not to be feared."

Director Li knows Long Yuan so well and his ideas are so clear and organized, he is definitely not an ordinary person!

Pei E admired him even more.

"Director Li, how is Gulang Technology? It's an 18-year-old company, well-known in the industry, and now it's even more famous among the gods."

"Gu Lang? Half of him is dead, and the remaining half of his body is still warm. Now he is in power and wants to do great things, but he cherishes his body and forgets his life for the sake of small profits. His achievements are limited to those of the gods."

Pei E's pupils shrank slightly.

Director Li is amazing! You are worthy of being Master's personal secretary! You have a keen eye and can see through things like seeing fire!

Pei E asked cautiously: "So what do you think of Yun Palace?"

As a veteran online game manufacturer, Yungong suffered a disadvantage in its first try with the buyout system. This year's "Alien Invasion" is an RTS with average quality and acceptable sales. The online reviews are mostly critical, and their numerical planners are still fixing the numerical balance.

Li Xiaomeng was about to speak when she suddenly remembered that Pei E was the eldest daughter of the Yun Palace Department, and immediately coughed:

"The future is promising."

Pei E looked at Li Xiaomeng with a hint of fear.

In addition to having a thorough understanding of the industry situation, he is also proficient in the key to interpersonal communication. I'm afraid that pretending to be stupid on weekdays is also a way to hide his strength...

Pei E accidentally saw the passage from the online article that Li Xiaomeng was reading.

One of the sentences really struck her:

This child cannot be kept!

I found that Red Brain Migo Freddy doesn't seem to be adapted from a Christmas song. Carol of the Great Old Ones is another song. I'm a lazy dog, so I won't modify the comments section.

In addition, a friend mentioned that the title of the book is not suitable, so we are crowdfunding to create a new title.

Chapter 116 [Awards]

7 p.m.

Hall 6 is now open to ticketed audiences.

Unlike the previous exhibition tickets, tickets for the award ceremony need to be purchased separately, and there are very few tickets, with only about a thousand or so available.

So more players will choose to watch live broadcasts.

At exactly eight o'clock, players from all over the world flocked into the live broadcast room on time, and the award ceremony officially began.

The Shanghai government had no experience in hosting video game expos, so it went with the old routine of film and television award ceremonies.

The host starts the show by playing some game memes to liven up the atmosphere, and then leads the topic to the awards to be presented. Before each award ceremony, a game video clip is played to let the audience know what game it is.

The winner will give a brief speech and then can play a promotional or demonstration video of his or her new game.

This way, the pace is fast and the elements that attract players are dense, so the entire ceremony will not appear too boring.

But the World Game Show has not yet highlighted these technologies, like the iconic symphony orchestra ensemble at the TGA ceremony. That’s why Gu Qingshi specially invited the Lightspeed Orchestra to accompany them.

As for whether there will be manufacturers that receive much attention but fail to win an award... that won't happen.

In addition to the grand finale of the "Best of the Year" award and the silver and bronze awards for "Most Popular" and "Best Creativity", there are countless small awards, some of which can even be said to be consolation prizes, which can be obtained as long as one of the product's reputation and sales meets the standards.

Therefore, some of the awards given previously have little value.

An event like the World Game Expo (WGE) is still relatively good, at least it is officially hosted and there isn't much exchange of interests involved.

The awarding of some awards was a complete mess. It was more like a division of spoils than a competition among the various parties, just to gild some things...

Let’s put these aside for now. In Hall 6, several small awards have been presented as the host joked.

The live broadcast room is also becoming more and more popular.

This is the first global game awards ceremony in history. Players from all over the world are very excited as they want to see games from their own countries appear on the awards podium.

Soon, dozens of small prizes were awarded, and several big prizes were given out one after another.

The main event is finally here.

The podium was suddenly filled with gunshots, shouts, and loud explosions of explosives. Four or five soldiers in bulletproof vests rushed into the room, raised their guns, and switched to first-person combat.

Someone in the live broadcast room immediately recalled the time they spent playing Battlefield.

But Starry’s game shouldn’t be ranked so high.

The camera turned and the host cheered: "The Best Operational Game Award goes to the one we see now: Rock - "Assault"!"

assault?

Many players who don’t know much about FPS were confused, as Panshi Company’s “Assault” had just entered the domestic market not long ago, and only veteran FPS players knew about it.

But in foreign countries, "Assault" is the undisputed FPS overlord. In terms of revenue, even "Battlefield" has to bow down to it.

It is a bit similar to Valorant before the release of VALORANT.

The surrounding continent is hot.

"Assault" and "Battlefield" also take two different paths, one is more competitive and the other is more entertainment-oriented.

At this time, the number of foreign language comments in the live broadcast room increased several times, all of them were loyal players of Assault.

The developer of Rockchip also took the stage, holding up the trophy, and shouted, "Goal is here," imitating the posture of marking the enemy in the game.

There was a sudden cheer in the live broadcast room.

Obviously, everyone is trying to find a way to make things happen.

He raised his hand to signal for silence, as he had something important to say.

"Friends, I am very happy to be here. We have broken through the numerous obstacles of the stupid Citi bureaucrats and are here to meet you with our surprise attack and new works!"

As a Citigroup company, they were expressly prohibited from participating in the exhibition - but Panshi's boss was apparently a smart guy.

I won’t attend the exhibition, I’ll only attend the award ceremony, okay?

So Panshi took advantage of the text loophole and became the only American game company to participate in the award ceremony.

On the podium, Panshi’s new work demo also began playing, and the winners announced their new work: "Lexington".

Judging from the game demo, this is a shooting game set against the backdrop of the independence of the thirteen colonies in North America, while also incorporating some RPG and strategy gameplay.

In the game, the player plays the role of a white gold digger affected by the War of Independence. He can choose to help North America or Great Britain, experience the story alone and become a legendary ranger, or recruit soldiers to form an independent militia to help the rebels or the sovereign fight and become a famous general.

The gameplay is an eclectic hodgepodge, but this innovative gameplay is indeed eye-catching.

Soon, the comments and barrage in the live broadcast room reached a small climax.

The rock demonstration ended quickly, followed by the best visual.

Suddenly, cheerful and childlike music sounded on the screen, and a cartoon-style dragon soared into the sky over a lush field.

The host raised his hands high. "A cartoon picture full of innocence and romance, like a dreamlike fairy tale! Twenty years ago, Sanhe Club's first game was released and won the Hazuru Award from the Asian United Game Development Association. Now, President Chino has returned with "Scarlet Illusion"!"

Old Man Zhiye and Bai Chengming both stood up and went on stage at the same time.

It was Bai Chengming's first time to step onto such a big stage, and he was obviously a little nervous.

In contrast, old man Zhiye seemed much more calm and composed. He looked like a veteran comrade who had experienced many ups and downs and did not show any fear at all.

"I am honored and ashamed to be here."

Chino Osamu slowly spoke, his voice old and powerful, "To be honest, this is my last work. If it weren't for this, I really want to give the best visual of this first WGC to younger generations."

“This is my most affectionate farewell to the industry, and I hope everyone enjoys it.”

The old man bowed deeply.

There were many JRPG players in the live broadcast room making cries and tears expressions.

As a veteran JRPG developer, Osamu Chino is the childhood memory of many people. When the equipment was not advanced, many middle-aged people grew up playing Sanhesha games on 720P screens.

So maybe "Scarlet Vision" is just average, but for the sake of sentiment, many players will still pay for it.

At the award ceremony, Pei E was both regretful and surprised.

Unfortunately, President Chino retired, and Sanhesha lost its leading general.

Li Xiaomeng was surprised at how well he had predicted the situation. It turned out that President Zhiye’s health could no longer hold on.

Pei E took a quick look and was stunned.

Where is Li Xiaomeng?

Weren’t you just here reading online articles on your phone?

When I turned around again, grand and heavy music was already sounding from the podium.

The red curtains around the podium slowly opened, and a conductor was holding a baton right behind the podium, gently raising his hand.

After the solemn prelude, several singers sang.

"Glory—to—the—queen"

This familiar music!
