Build Madness

On the second day of the private meeting with Zeng Xuan, Nanyang Tiancheng and Standard Chartered Bank of Asia jointly announced the comprehensive cooperation between the two parties.

At the same time, the Nanyang Zeng family held a grand ancestral recognition ceremony in Xiangxian County, and decided to spend 50 million red notes in July to build the first Xiangxian International Stone Carving Art Festival.

The combination of the two news caused many business people to discuss.

Xiangxian County is Tiancheng's hometown, Nanyang Zeng's family ran over, did they recognize their ancestors, or were they close?

At least Ge Laoer gave Miss Zeng a good meeting gift.

You must know that Tiancheng has built five wharves and ports of more than 200,000 tons in Nanyang, operated a super rubber plantation, and has contacts with many companies in Nanyang. Business ability, it is possible to surpass Citigroup and East Asia, and directly catch up with HSBC.

Just like Mr. Zhuang's Nanyang Development Bank, it was just a small private commercial bank two years ago, with a market value of two billion Franklins, but since it helped Tiancheng advance the 500 million Franklins for the deposit of the Incheon Bridge the year before last, the follow-up can be described as a leap forward. soaring.

Get the banking business of plastics in Taiwan Province, the banking business of manufacturing industry in Taiwan Province, and the banking business of many commercial companies in Taimei...

Today's Nanyang Development Bank has become the "Asian Development Bank" with a market value of tens of billions of Franklin, and it is also the initiator of the "Asian Common Currency".

(Generally speaking, the market value of a bank is very low. It is in charge of countless company accounts and personal capital transactions. It makes the plate very large, and it is difficult to increase the market value. As a result, its own market value is only a reference for reputation. Save it in, and you can still take it out after N years.)

Amid all the speculation, the market capitalization of Standard Chartered Bank rose slightly.

As a result, the Queen of England once again warmly invited Ge to England as a guest.

Ge Xiaotian refused so many times, this time is not bad.

After all, the layout of the Viking Pirates is for two years, far from the harvest time.

What he cares about now is how much benefit this year's May Day Golden Week can bring to his family.

It doesn't refer to the Sancha Cup, nor does it refer to the card game, but the integration of Tiancheng's industries.

In order to welcome this grand ceremony, he not only advanced many projects, but also transferred many corporate executives.

First of all, after Gao Song went to Africa to engage in entertainment, he served as the head of Tianyu International's behind-the-scenes Nomad Star.

……………………

For the Golden Week of May Day and to select a batch of good seedlings during the college graduation season, Tianyu International specially opened a business location in Jinxiuchuan.

The basement floor of Jinxiuchuan Library.

Coming here, there are many young men and women who don't like football gathered in the 10,000-square-meter field.

They like games, they like the second dimension...

After more than a year of training, Youminxing has transformed his talent in the game field into commercial operations, and has grown into a dog planner who can dominate the world.

Figures, comics, commemorative boxes, music collections, film and television works, virtual props...

Throughout the hall, there are countless attractive products.

Therefore, even if Tianyu International has not released a new masterpiece in the past year, it has still secured its position as the "No. 1 brother" in the game field by leasing the game engine and selling IP authorization.

Ge Xiaotian came to the office of the chairman of Tianyu, and You Minxing was training the employees.

Maybe because he was a professor and a postgraduate tutor before, this big brother continued his previous style in his work, and he was trained if he couldn't get used to it.

But he has real skills, and the trainees are not only not annoyed, but are taught humbly.

"It's almost done, Rory, is Suo still working?"

Seeing Boss Ge's arrival, the newly recruited employees, that is, graduates from the university town, all looked at him with resentment, as if blaming Boss Ge for disturbing Dong Dong's training.

"Hey, I saved you all, yet you still dare to look at me like this, don't you want your salary?"

"Hello, Senior Ge!"

"Well, go get busy, I have something to talk to you Director You."

Wait for new employees to leave.

Ge Xiaotian dropped a pack of No. 13 cigars, and lit one on his own, "Dongshan Fifteen City is about to reveal the 'spectacle' that has been covered up for two years. Taking advantage of this wave, do you have any new projects for Tianyu?"

"Boss, in order to justify his name, Gao Dong filmed a film called 'Blood Diamond' about diamond mining in Africa. I watched the film, and it can be called a classic."

"He engages in entertainment in Africa, that's his business, so don't get involved."

Ge Xiaotian didn't treat Gao Song badly, and never looked down on Gao Song.

Xu Ling and his wife are in charge of Tiancheng Real Estate Development, while Gao Song is in charge of follow-up industrial operations.

To put it bluntly, he was trained as an "intercontinental professional manager", and his importance was no less important than Brother Hao and Shuai Bo.

"Boss, during the May Day Golden Week, in addition to putting Kung Fu football with special effects on the shelves, I plan to launch 'China's first 3D martial arts masterpiece of national style'."

"So fast?"

"The first round of research and development is over, and the internal file deletion and sealing test have been carried out three times. The village map is complete and almost ready to be put on the shelves."

You Minxing turned on the projector and explained:

"The current game environment is no longer in the millennium. At the beginning, Shenlong Legend was the dominant player and dominated the game industry. After the boom, we immediately launched dance and karts, and instantly attracted a large number of players who failed to attack the sand for the first time. Your eldest brother is A good example."

"In 2001, Shenlong Cultivation Mainland was launched, the first 3D fantasy masterpiece, which has a fatal attraction for game lovers. Boss Xishanmei, the richest man in Beijing, Chen Feng's rebel army, and Teddy's guardian army all entered Xinyou. You have never logged into Dragon Legend again."

"If Legend of the Dragon can spend three to five years safely and cultivate a group of loyal players, maybe we can still sell our feelings, but under the impact of Legend of the Dragon, in the second half of 2001, there are only 300,000 players left in Legend of the Dragon. player."

"Merging servers, regions, launching new sand attack rewards, and even launching the 'Heroes Attack' version on New Year's Day this year, have not recovered. As of now, there are only 100,000 players left."

"Originally, Tianyu International could turn Shenlong Cultivation into the second Shenlong Legend, but due to the limited market share of the SG platform and the impact of the overseas World of Warcraft, even if it absorbs the players of Shenlong Legend, from beginning to end, The total number of online players also failed to surpass the record created by the latter, maintaining around three million."

"It is reported that World of Warcraft is popular all over the world with the win platform, and the number of players has exceeded one million. Although the gameplay and graphics are quite different from Shenlong Cultivation, "foreign monks can chant sutras", just like our secret research in Northern Europe Well, the English feel that French is very tasty and are keen to learn the latter, but the French feel that German is cool and are keen to learn German. This is nothing more than curiosity about foreign things, just like in China.”

"Another piece of reliable news is that North America has decided to open World of Warcraft's Taiwan and China servers in the second half of the year. If we don't take countermeasures, I'm afraid Shenlong Cultivation Continent may lose a large number of players."

After Ge Xiaotian listened, he logged into Shenlong Cultivator.

The page is no longer the boxy, orderly framework of two years ago, but full of special effects that follow the real-time changes of the game environment.

Entering the game, there are lightning and thunder in the sky, and heavy rain pours in the field of vision.

After two steps, the boots were covered with mud, and the speed dropped slightly.

Click!

In the ruins ahead, a black and white bone palm protruded from the soil, and then, a skeleton suddenly appeared.

'You are dead...'

You Xing grinned, "Boss, how long have you been online?"

"About a year and a half?"

"Building the foundation, first glance, consecration, psychic, Hedao, transformation, transcending robbery, Mahayana, ascension... Now it is the version of Hedao, you are still the first glimpse, it is normal to be killed in seconds."

"Updated too fast."

"A major version update every six months is equivalent to a new game, followed by a corresponding 'series-style movie', which is neither too fast nor too slow."

"Which version is it now?"

"Undead Extermination, this version is a bit interesting."

You Xingxing opened the official website and played a wonderful clip, "At the end of last year, the most sensational cross-server battle ever broke out in Shenlong Cultivation Continent. Huaxia dispatched 60,000 players, and Ice Bear dispatched 30,000 players."

"The two sides gathered in the wild plains in the northwest. During the period, a player was digging for treasure, and accidentally dug up a piece of grass, and then an ancient city suddenly appeared. Immediately afterwards, 90,000 players were suddenly drowned in the sea of ​​skeletons by undead that suddenly appeared from nowhere. ..."

on screen.

Human bones, alien beast bones, mammoth bones, demon dragon bones...

The overwhelming undead slaughtered the wild plain beasts and transformed them into their own kind.

Grasslands turned into deserts, seas and fields turned into endless deserts, and more than a dozen sects guarding the northwest border of Shenlong Continent were shattered one after another.

The unprecedented change was caused by the player's personal behavior, which shocked all game lovers at home and abroad.

But fun is fun. In fact, each new version is not friendly to ordinary players at the beginning of each new version, because PVE dungeons require 'hard-core technology', 'fixed team', 'DPS standard' and so on.

Even in the PVP arena, you will encounter super masters with zero points, and handicapped players will definitely be beaten to doubt their lives.

Therefore, at the beginning of each new version of Shenlong Continent, ordinary players will temporarily A drop, experience other games, contribute a small amount of money to Tianyu International, and then return to experience the dungeon that has been opened up, or experience the low-end arena, commonly known as: Buddha Department of cultivating immortals.

This model was proposed by Ge Xiaotian, because he believed that Shenlong Cultivation is well-made, SG equipment has excellent performance, and the game experience has reached the level of ten years later. In addition, players do not have so much time to live games, and the end game will eventually face the "Buddhist Cultivation". ', 'Online check-in', 'Receive vegetables and go offline'.

In addition, the company does not make personal computers, but only makes personal terminals. It can pave the way for the promotion of mobile games by cultivating players' tastes in advance.

But in fact, the technology alliance is not vulnerable.

The company launched IPS hard screen, and the other party also launched VA LCD.

This is a vertically arranged liquid crystal display. Compared with ordinary displays, it has higher contrast and wider viewing angles. It feels almost the same as IPS hard screens. It is also the mainstream technology for large-screen LCDs and TVs in the future.

It was occupied by Sharp, Toshiba, Sunrise, Sony, AUO, etc. half a year ago, and now it is taken over by the Technology Alliance to compete with SG pad.

Although Nvidia can't compete with its own company with 3Dfx and ATI for the time being, but there are many people and strength. If Tiancheng Electric Industry does not take advantage of the innovation and widen the gap with the other party in the industry, it will cause the other party to throw away itself in terms of technology. .

Another point is that Shenlong Cultivation allows game lovers on the mother star to experience the magic of oriental fantasy, but because of cultural differences, the number of overseas players it has is far less than that of the "Steampunk World".

Once World of Warcraft was launched, it immediately attracted a large number of overseas loyal fans, and even took away a large number of players of Dragon Cultivation and Steampunk.

In Ge Xiaotian's eyes, the two time and space seem to overlap at this moment, bringing the game field into the "Age of Warcraft".

but.

The family is not powerless to fight back.

The 3D martial arts produced by the GIS system truly restore the world of ancient knights with 60% realistic elements.

For example, Xiang County.

If there is a thousand-year-old road somewhere in reality, it will also appear in the game, and the surrounding environment will be restored through AR technology, depicting a "real ancient time".

When players come here, they can talk freely, move around freely, and even buy a piece of land to build a home, where they can 'live, grow old, get sick and die'.

If the player commits a crime here, he will be wanted by the government, and will be chased and killed by green forest heroes, people from the rivers and lakes, and martial arts heroes.

These "AI technologies" are difficult to realize even in the future.

However, it has a Shiguang machine matrix that almost surpasses the system produced, as well as servers located in various places in Dongshan, the number of which has exceeded 20,000.

In other words, copy the GIS system, replace the model, and substitute it into the self-developed 3D game engine to create an online version of the "Ancient Sims".

And the performance is superior, the playability is higher, and there is player interaction.

Most importantly, the game uses a self-developed 'seamless map'.

That is to say, when you come to Xiang County, you can walk from 'Dongguan' all the way to Sancha Township without switching scenes or reading notes.

It looks very close, but it actually takes half a day, not game time, but real time, commonly known as Wangshan running dead horse.

Some people may say that doing so will lead to a lot of unreachable places, which will also be loaded, which is a serious waste of memory. The bigger the map, the longer it takes to enter the big map of Xiangxian County, and finally it gets stuck.

But this technology involves 'pre-reading', 'real-time reading', 'environment optimization', 'AI measurement', and 'server computing power'. (see Dark Souls)

The 3D martial arts masterpiece, Dongshan alone has nearly 200 counties and more than 2,000 villages. The average map area of ​​each county reaches 15,000 square kilometers, which corresponds to the reality and perfectly reflects the vast land and resources of China.

In the future, Nanhe Shaolin, Beihe Cangzhou, Central Plains Beggars and so on will be opened.

The game has no main quests or side quests, and everything is based on real-time interaction. Wherever the player goes, the story will happen, and there are random one-time adventures corresponding to the era.

In other words, anything is possible.

Even if the players are united, like riding and slashing, it is no problem to attack a small county.

Such a masterpiece, coupled with Longtian's upcoming home console, how can it not beat World of Warcraft?

"Good steel should be used wisely. May 1st is not a good time. It's better to bring out 3D martial arts during the summer vacation."

"Boss, if the 3D martial arts is launched before the summer vacation, with the help of the 'seamless map' and the 'single map is a server' design, it will definitely become a huge hit, and even surpass the record created by the legend of the dragon."

"But once the summer vacation is over, students who can only be regarded as temporary players quit the game, which will inevitably create an illusion of 'the game is cold', affecting office workers who stick to the game and actually playing games, and cause office workers to also quit the game .”

"For example, you have accepted ten apprentices, all of whom are students. When the school starts in September, all the apprentices have left. What should you do?"

"So, if 3D martial arts want to surpass the legend of the dragon, the mainland of the dragon, and even create their own 'history', they must quietly go public in the cold season of the game. Let them be willing to help us secretly promote the transcendent game experience, and wait until the summer vacation, when the new area opens..."

"Makes sense."

Ge Xiaotian nodded, "Then it will be launched on May 1st, and Tianyu International will also take advantage of this time to update the hardware of the Internet cafe SG equipment, and strive to make all game lovers like it."

"Okay boss, but...we have reported more than a dozen game names, which one to use?"

"A dream of the rivers and lakes, chivalrous and courageous, iron-blooded loyalty, sword-cold Kyushu, records of rivers and lakes... the world?"

"This is the name recommended by the regional agency Yiwang."

"..."

Ge Xiaotian was just about to look at other names, when he suddenly remembered that this time and space has occupied the equipment, and Yiwang has already cooperated with him to be responsible for news entertainment and live broadcast of events. It is almost impossible to represent World of Warcraft, and it is impossible to launch a fantasy version of Tianxia , "Just this name, it's good. Tianxia, ​​here I come!"

"Your movement of putting your five fingers together can completely make a game promotional video."

"..."

Ge Xiaotian almost choked, this is the signature move of the Lord of Worshiping the Moon, "By the way, how was the filming of the fairy sword?"

"It will be shown on SG TV China One during the summer vacation."

"There can be a linkage, such as multiple games synchronizing a weapon, a better-looking sword, a better hairstyle, and a better fashion."

"Already doing it."

"Well, I don't worry about your work, just step back."

"Boss, this is my office."

"..."
