Build a game empire from scratch

Sure enough, as soon as Lin You finished speaking, Yu Wenwen and the members of the Guangyu team behind her all showed disappointed expressions.

Lin You thought for a while, and simply opened a portal: "Come with me."

Go in first after speaking.

[Virtual Chang'an Development World]

The last time he took these girls to the world of ancient architecture, the [Virtual Chang'an] project hadn't really started yet.

They only know that Lin You has set up a virtual world to record ancient buildings, and is building several ancient cities at the same time.

Lin You also only introduced that he wanted to develop a new game that "builds with building blocks".

In other words: the development of "Assassin's Creed Chang'an" is actually only known to a small number of employees in the company.

The members of the Guangyu group didn't know about it before.

"This is..." Yu Wenwen looked at the system prompt that popped up in front of him, "Virtual Chang'an?"

"Yes, our next masterpiece may also be the next one, depending on the resolution time of several key issues."

Lin You motioned for everyone to follow him and climb up the Zen Ding Temple Pagoda in front of him, while explaining to them.

"This game will set the main battlefield in Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty. For this reason, I plan to reproduce the entire Chang'an city in the virtual world."

"Of course, instead of pursuing archaeological reproduction, for the sake of gameplay and romance, we will add many less real, but most spectacular and magnificent buildings."

"For example, the tower we are in now: the Zen Ding Temple Tower. This is probably the tallest tower in Chang'an City in historical records."

"Pure wooden structure, three hundred and thirty feet, converted to the current unit, it is nearly a hundred meters high."

"By comparison, the tallest building in Chang'an, the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, is only over 60 meters high, and it is made of masonry."

"It's a pity that this incredible building has long since disappeared in history. The one in front of us is just a reconstruction based on scholars' research on ancient books and records, and after exerting a certain amount of imagination, it was recreated."

"How real is it? It's hard to say."

"But who can deny how magnificent and beautiful it is now?"

While talking, everyone has climbed to the seventh floor of the meditation temple tower. This floor is 11 meters high, and the outer corridor is more than 30 meters long on one side. Everyone who stands down still looks spacious.

Standing on the highest floor, which is nearly 100 meters above the ground, and looking at all the buildings below, they all become dwarfed.

Lin You stopped talking.

Xiaochun, Yu Wenwen, and other members of the Guangyu team lightly stroked the vermilion railing at hand, the cool wind from high above brushed their cheeks, and the wind chimes shaped like copper bells under the eaves swayed gently, and at the same time issued a melodious chime. jingle.

Everyone naturally felt the wonderful touch across time and space.

Disappointment, depression, dissatisfaction, all slowly dissipated at this moment.

But at the same time, another idea quietly emerged, and it became stronger and stronger——

"I want to participate in this project too! Can you?" Yu Wenwen looked at Lin You eagerly.

The art style of "Guang Yu" naturally determines that it will be restricted while being pleasing.

No matter how well-produced the content of their "visiting the ancient times and looking for seclusion", it is impossible to achieve this step!

This is a natural limitation of the painting style.

"Um, it's not impossible." Lin You thought for a while and said, "It's just that it's a bit too early to say this now."

"At the current stage, professional researchers in related fields are basically taking the lead in building this city, and it's not yet time for you to play a role. If you start to intervene too early, and the city is built in the end, the style will appear inconsistent, and it will still be a problem. If you have to go back to work, isn’t that causing trouble for yourself?”

"It's still the same sentence, don't worry, wait a little longer."

Yu Wenwen also understood: "So boss, you said that the ancient theme season of "Light Yu" will be done later, are you planning to make a linkage at that time?"

"That's right." Lin You affirmed, "So let's make a season with other themes first, and wait until the development of "Assassin's Creed Chang'an" comes to an end, and then make a season with the theme of visiting ancient times. The two games can do a special one. linkage."

Yu Wenwen thought for a while, then nodded to express her understanding, but she couldn't help but ask Lin You if she could open up the authority here in [Virtual Chang'an].

The reason is: I can get a lot of inspiration, and I can make some material reserves for the seasons of ancient themes in advance.

Lin You readily agreed.

They were even given access to the entire [Ancient Architectural Records and Preservation Foundation Map].

This was originally one of his goals for preparing this project, and it was of course very happy to give it.

After giving the permission, Lin You remembered another thing: "Many players think that once the diving season is over, the map will never be accessible again. For this reason, they are still petitioning online, hoping to keep the map after the season is over. You know this ?"

Yu Wenwen nodded: "I know, we have already issued an announcement to explain it to the players."

"That's good." Lin You nodded.

He looked at the virtual Chang'an that was constantly enriching and expanding in size for a while, and then he left here satisfied.

After climbing to the highest level, Xiaochun didn't participate in the conversation, just blowing the wind in a daze, listening to the jingle of wind chimes, Xiaochun finally came back to his senses, smiled at Yu Wenwen, and then left here.

Yu Wenwen clenched his fists and made up his mind: no matter what, he must participate in this project!

Although Lin You knew that Xu Chun and his team were in a virtual martial arts gym in Chang'an, he didn't go directly to say hello.

Instead, after going offline, he went to reality to find Xu Chun to practice boxing with a face of disapproval.

Xiaochun returned to the development world of "Cube World (Tentative)" and continued to work.

Blocks of various materials, the most common form of expression, have been produced.

Now we have started to make special scenes and different forms of expression under the building.

——For example, the plant blocks growing outdoors and the indoor decorative plant blocks use the same block material, but the expression forms are obviously not exactly the same.

This part will not insist on perfection at one time, but adheres to the concept of "enough is enough".

Because there is almost no end to the refinement and refinement in this area.

Of course, Yunmeng's standard "just enough" is definitely not the same standard as "just enough" in the industry.

The only pity is that Yunmeng is the only one in the industry to develop virtual reality games.

Even if Yunmeng's employees are doing absurdly, their peers in the industry can't understand it, which makes the employees lose a lot of bragging capital...

But it doesn't matter, this situation will change sooner or later.

Lin You already has a rough plan, just waiting to push it step by step.

The first time he saw Xu Chun, Lin You tried to persuade Xu Chun to shorten his training time.

But Xu Chun didn't give him any face as the boss, and directly refused without even a second of hesitation.

Lin You's schedule is actually very tight.

Even because the course duration and frequency were a bit high, and he didn't have the slightest foundation before that, Xu Chun had to arrange an interval for rest.

——On weekdays, even if Lin You practiced in the virtual world, after returning to reality, he still had to do a certain amount of maintenance training.

Only on the rest days marked on the schedule, can Lin You completely put down the training and rest for a whole day with peace of mind.

Just like this, Xu Chun had to give him regular massages to stretch his muscles.

When Xu Chun was practicing boxing by himself, my father didn't have the patience for him!

Lin You was rejected tragically, so he could only continue to follow the course and train hard.

*

Early the next morning, Lin You, who was sleeping, was in a daze, and vaguely heard a voice calling him softly:

"Master~Master~wake up~"

Lin You narrowed his eyes, rubbed them, and struggled to open them a little.

Through this narrow field of vision, he saw on the monitor on the bedside table that Xiaomeng was wearing a cute one-piece pajamas with a small dinosaur print, holding a small green dinosaur doll in his arms, and whispered to the camera he.

——This doll was made by Lin You as a gift to her, and Lin You also had the same doll by his bedside.

"Wake up~"

"What's wrong? Xiaomeng? It's so early in the morning, I can't sleep well." Lin You asked in a daze.

"It's already half past seven, it's not too early!"

Xiaomeng shook her head, and started to talk about business: "At four o'clock in the morning, after the animals in the playground dispersed, three and a half hours have passed, and they haven't appeared again!"

"Oh!" Lin You finally regained consciousness when he heard the news, "Good news, is it finally back to normal?"

——Before that, after the animals dispersed, within an hour, they would come back again.

Lin You once wondered how many night owls there are in "Paradise", playing games all night.

Compared with before, it has not appeared for three and a half hours, which means that those people who had been looking for the little lion at four o'clock in the morning before finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Of course, it could also be... Tired of playing?

Either way, it's good news.

"Yeah." Xiaomeng nodded in approval.

But suddenly, she paused in nodding, and then changed the topic and said, "It's not good."

"What's wrong?" Lin You knew Xiaomeng very well, apparently she had discovered something new.

"Someone organized everyone in the "Paradise" section of the Vortex Forum to catch the lion cubs and bring the beasts to the playground."

"A lot of people participated?"

Xiao Meng nodded, "The number of replies is increasing rapidly, and now it has broken through the 100th, 140th, and 260th floors..."

This is not enough, Xiaomeng also predicted a wave: "According to Xiaomeng's statistics, it can still reach this level of popularity at this time. By noon, this post will become the most popular post in the district, and if there is no accident , the next few days will be the most lively discussion thread."

Lin You had an ominous premonition...

And this premonition became stronger and stronger as the popularity of the forum posts became higher and higher.

Until he sat in the office, the ominous premonition reached its peak.

Although the hidden lion cub has not yet been found by the players, some people have organized it on the forum and started to set up a special [Looking for the Beastmaster] group chat.

What frustrates Lin You the most is that there is more than one such group chat.

On the way to work, Lin You asked Xiaomeng to use the trumpet to check it out.

As a result, Xiaomeng added 6 groups in a row, and each group had five or six hundred people!

And the players in each group are very enthusiastic and full of action!

When Lin You logged into the virtual world and came to "Paradise" with Xiao Meng, the players still couldn't find the little lion.

But they have started to become fanatical. Not only did the amusement facilities in the playground stop playing, but even the number of players in the [Candy Track] dropped a lot.

Countless players drove the shuttle into the depths of the wilderness in groups.

Judging by that posture, he has made up his mind that even if the land of the wasteland is stripped down a few layers, he must find the little lion and bring the herd back to the playground.

"Master, why don't we just make two playgrounds, one without animals and one with animals all the time, and let the players choose which one to go to?"

Xiao Meng held Lin You's hand, raised her head and asked puzzledly: "Isn't this problem solved?"

Lin You shook his head when he heard the words: "That's indeed the easiest way, but it's not the best way."

The next chapter is still being corrected, maybe at night, not for a long time.
