Game Design: Is it possible? CaiGou

Taipingdao clearly expressed the official attitude and won the support of countless Chinese players.

This also aroused the anger of countless overseas players. They announced a boycott of Ark: Survival Evolved and announced a boycott of games produced by Taipingdao.

In their view, it is just a game. If they don’t play Ark: Survival Evolved, they can just play another game. What’s the big deal?

But this group of foreign players with their eyes on the top of their heads, now realize that there are equally popular games overseas, such as -

"Terraria", "Kerbal Space Program", "Cities Skylines", "It Takes Two", "Oxygen Not Included", "Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice", "Digital Combat Simulator World", "Russian Fishing Master", "Ring Fit Adventure", "Pokemon Go", etc.

These games that are deeply loved by overseas players are all produced by Taipingdao. Overseas players who originally just blindly participated in this matter left silently.

Please...

With so many good games, don’t you really want to play them?

Not playing is not a loss for Taipingdao, but a loss for these foreign players.

So within a few days, only the foreign players of Ark: Survival Evolved were left, still insisting on announcing a boycott of Ark: Survival Evolved and games produced by Taipingdao.

But the posture was also thunderous but little raindrops.

You know, although the survival construction track is very mature, there are many survival construction games.

However, among the survival construction games with dinosaur elements, there is only Ark: Survival Evolved on the market, without any competitors or substitutes, it is a unique existence.

This unstoppable and powerful boycott in the minds of foreign players is actually not as powerful as they imagined, but just a paper tiger.

Cai Gou paid a little attention to the subsequent impact of the incident for a few days, and found that this group of foreign players could not cause any big waves, so he naturally put it behind his mind.

As the date of the Journey Cup approached, the preparations for the opening ceremony had been completed.

On the Internet, players in the game circle could be seen discussing the topic of the Journey Cup, and the heat was unparalleled.

The organizers also began to contact all participating game manufacturers, asking the players to rush to Liangshan in advance to arrange the offline game exhibition hall of this Journey Cup, and also prepare for the opening ceremony of the Journey Cup.

After Wu Xiu received the invitation from the organizer, he immediately found Cai Gou and said:

"Brother, the opening ceremony of the Journey Cup will begin in three days. Just now, the staff of the official relevant unit called me and asked us, the participating manufacturers, to set up the game exhibition hall in advance."

"In addition, the staff also said that a deputy team leader of the organizer has something to do with you. He left me a phone number. Call him after arriving at the scene. He has something to talk to you about."

"Deputy team leader? Who is it?" Cai Gou asked without raising his head.

"I asked the staff." Wu Xiu paused and then said:

"The game office of the entertainment office of the Journey Cup is also one of the organizers. The deputy director of the game office is named Zhao Guang."

Cai Gou's mind was lost in memories. After thinking for a while, he found that he was indeed present when he had dinner with Liu Shu several times.

In theory, for a top domestic competition like the Journey Cup, the game office of the entertainment office is a co-organizer. What can he do to me?

This thought flashed through his mind, Cai Gou patted his butt and stood up, saying:

"Okay, since we have to set up the offline exhibition hall, and there are leaders who want to talk to us, let's get ready to go today."

"Okay..." Wu Xiu agreed, but he didn't move his feet.

Cai Gou asked curiously: "What's wrong, Brother Wu? Is there anything else?"

Wu Xiu smiled awkwardly: "Brother, how many people are you going to take to Liangshan this time? If it's convenient, I also want to go and see it."

"Hahaha..." Cai Gou patted Wu Xiu's shoulder and laughed: "Brother Wu, don't worry, when have I ever eaten alone?"

"Not only you, Zhong Chu, Fei Yangyang, Zhu Pingan... Let's go together, it's more lively with more people."

Wu Xiu showed a happy smile on his face, and he nodded heavily: "Hey, thank you brother, I can also go to see the world, okay, then you are busy, I will go to book tickets for everyone."

That afternoon, the senior leaders of Taipingdao flew to Liangshan Marsh.

Along the way, everyone was in high spirits. During the Journey Cup competition, Liangshan was full of five-star hotels and roadside inns.

Various game-related decorations and banners can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys, highlighting the unprecedented game scope. Tourists and players strolled around the streets of Liangshan with great interest, as if they couldn't wait for the Journey Cup competition to be held.

Everyone drove to the hotel where they stayed, put their luggage, and gathered in the lobby one after another.

Zhu Pingan, Fei Yangyang, Zhong Chu, and the five-member team of Xianzhen Camp went to the offline exhibition hall of Liangshan for a field investigation and began to arrange the work on site.

Cai Gou took Wu Xiu to another car and acted separately. In the car, Wu Xiu called Zhao Guang.

"Hey, is this Director Zhao? Yes, I'm the Wolong of Taiping Dao, you can just call me Wu Xiu."

"Yeah, that's right, Mr. Cai and I have arrived at Liangshan, and just checked into the official hotel of the Travel Cup."

"Yeah, okay, okay, send me the address, I'll take Mr. Cai over there right away."

After hanging up the phone, Wu Xiu saw the address and drove away from the hotel with Cai Gou.

In the car, Wu Xiuhui reported: "Mr. Cai, Director Zhao is currently fishing in a nearby reservoir. When he knew you were coming, he asked us to rush over and tell us something before the Journey Cup officially started. "

Cai Gou was originally looking at the busy traffic outside the window. Hearing this, he asked curiously: "What did Director Zhao say?"

"He didn't say it, but it should be a good thing."

Cai Gou pursed his lips and smiled, but said nothing.

Twenty minutes later, the vehicle arrived at its destination.

Cai Gou and Wu Xiu got out of the car and saw a tall, thin middle-aged man not far away. He put down the fishing rod in his hand and hurried over. He stretched out his hand and said with a smile:

"Mr. Cai, I have admired you for a long time."

After all, he was the deputy director of the Game Office of the Cultural and Entertainment Office, and his relationship was not in place. Cai Gou didn't care much, so he walked forward in three steps at a time, took the initiative to hold Zhao Guang's hand, and said with a smile on his face:

"Director Zhao, we meet again. It's a pleasure to meet you. It's a pleasure to meet you. If you hadn't informed me in advance, I wouldn't have known that you were one of the organizers of this session."

"Hey, I'm just co-organizing this, it's insignificant." Zhao Guang waved his hand and said with a smile.

The two exchanged pleasantries, and under the leadership of Zhao Guang, they came to a fishing spot nearby. Cai Gouke picked up a fishing rod and started fishing in a decent manner.

After chatting with each other for a long time, neither of them caught a single fish. They were both bad at it. Zhao Guang then took the initiative and said, "Mr. Cai, I'm old. How about I call you brother?"

"That's no big deal, brother. Based on my relationship with the Game Office of the Cultural Entertainment Office, it's totally fine for us to call each other brothers."

"Hahaha, then I have something to say directly." Zhao Guang leaned forward and asked:

"At the opening ceremony of the Journey Cup the day after tomorrow, there is a quota for a game industry representative to speak on stage. Can you please go on stage and say a few words?"

Speaking on stage at the opening ceremony?

Logically speaking, the Journey Cup is the largest gaming event in China. Speaking on stage is a great opportunity for the parties involved to receive lights, flowers, and applause. No one will remain indifferent.

Zhao Guang, the deputy team leader of the organizer and the deputy director of the Game Office of the Cultural and Entertainment Office, is responsible for coordinating the Journey Cup and official-level activities.

Why would you use the word "suffer" to yourself?

This doesn't make sense, does it?

Cai Gou expressed his concerns without hiding them:

"I really can't bear the burden. I'm a junior. It's not my turn to be ranked according to seniority. How about you take a look at it again?"

After Zhao Guang heard these words, he knew in his heart that Cai Gou would not agree if he did not tell the whole story clearly, so he put down the fishing rod in his hand, took out the cigarette case, and handed it to Cai Gou.

"Thank you, Director Zhao. I don't smoke, but it's okay for you to smoke."

"It's better not to smoke, it's better not to smoke..."

Zhao Guang lit a cigarette and while puffing out smoke, he explained the ins and outs of the matter.

It’s not that there aren’t any representatives from the gaming industry taking the stage to speak at the Journey Cup. On the contrary, there are many representatives from game manufacturers who want to compete for this opportunity.

However, Journey Cup has always had the responsibility to lead the future trend of the game industry. When I learned that Taipingdao’s Jiegan No. 2 has developed a player taste synchronization function.

The organizer's inner preference is for Cai Gou to speak on stage. It would be best if he also tells the story of the development of Jiagan-2 and the epoch-making significance brought by the player's taste synchronization function.

The organizers even plan to negotiate with Cai Gou to unite some game manufacturers with Taipingdao as the core and open up the Jiegan No. 2 virtual game platform so that more manufacturers can join in so that their games can have the function of synchronizing the taste of players.

In this way, Cai Gou became the only representative from the gaming industry who was appointed to speak on stage, but none of the parties involved knew about it.

When Zhao Guang received this task, he thought about it and realized that trusting the university would not work. He was not clear about the relationship between Cai Gou and Director Liu Shu, so he could only position himself and talk to Cai Gou personally.

After figuring out all this, Cai Gou felt a lot more relieved. It turned out that this was just the case, and the problem was not big. On the contrary...

Cai Gou's eyes lit up and he thought it was an opportunity.

"Director, everything about cooperation is easy to talk about. This was originally within my plan. When I take the stage to speak this time, the most important thing is to explain the Jiegan No. 2 and the player's taste synchronization function, right?"

"Yes, after all, Jie Gan No. 2 has epoch-making significance in leading the future trend of the game industry. It is necessary to take advantage of this stage to share it with everyone."

Cai Gou paused and said, "I'm not a naive person about this kind of thing. You're looking down on me by asking me to speak on stage. I have no problem with that."

Zhao Guang looked happy and was about to speak when he heard Cai Gou continue: "But the content of the speech on stage needs to be discussed."

"How to say?"

"Jiegan 2 is just a product of the experimental stage of the somatosensory game cabin. Currently, Taipingdao has developed a full-body game cabin including pain sensation - Fenghuo 3."

"What I mean is that if I were asked to go on stage to speak, it would be better to explain Fenghuo No. 3 in one step. I'm afraid that I would overwhelm the guest and make too much noise and steal the limelight from the organizer."

"!!!" Zhao Guang's eyes froze, as if he were listening to a book from heaven. He froze on the spot, choked by the smoke, and kept coughing. After a while, he recovered and asked impatiently:

"What are you talking about? Fenghuo No. 3, the whole-sensory game cabin that includes pain perception? Your Taipingdao has already developed it? Cai Gou, this is a big deal. You can't just talk nonsense. Is there any bottom line? Can you guarantee it?"

Cai Gou smiled and said, "Don't worry, Fenghuo No. 3 has entered mass production in June. It has been in mass production for two months. The inventory is sufficient and the experiment is normal."

"Ah?" Zhao Guang asked in confusion, "Why is there no news about Fenghuo No. 3 in the market in the past two months?"

"Hehe..." Cai Gou smiled embarrassedly, "Isn't it preparing to make a splash in the Travel Cup!"

"Then you, this... um..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Guang felt a little ashamed and didn't know what to say. The opening platform cooperation of Jiegan No. 2 is already a blessing for the entire gaming industry.

It can't be that just because Taipingdao has developed a more powerful Fenghuo No. 3, it will continue to shamelessly let him immediately open the virtual platform of Fenghuo No. 3?

If they really do this, what kind of people will the Travel Cup and the Entertainment Office Game Office become?

Cai Gou obviously understood Zhao Guang's concerns, and then said: "The pain and sense of wholeness game cabin of Fenghuo No. 3 are our secret weapons in this Journey Cup. At this stage, we cannot open the platform to the outside world for cooperation."

"But don't worry, Director, we Taipingdao already have a preliminary cooperation plan for Fenghuo No. 3. After the Journey Cup, Taipingdao will not cherish it."

"Hey, hey..." Zhao Guang nodded subconsciously and said hurriedly: "That's good, that's good."

"Then you see, when I go on stage to speak, can I use Fenghuo No. 3 as the theme?" Cai Gou asked.

Zhao Guang patted his chest and said, "No problem, absolutely no problem. Don't be afraid of stealing our limelight. Fenghuo No. 3 made its debut at the opening ceremony of our Journey Cup. It's not stealing our limelight at all. On the contrary, we benefited from your help."

After the words fell, Zhao Guang suddenly had an inspiration and said to Cai Gou, "Wait a minute, I'll make a call."

"You are welcome."

Zhao Guang walked aside, called the leader's phone, and informed the superior leader of the cooperation matters of Fenghuo No. 3 and Jiegan No. 2 platforms. After winning the leader's attention, he put forward his own views and received a definite answer.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Guang returned to Cai Gou and said:

"Cai Gou, sorry for the long wait. This is what happened. I thought about it and came up with an idea. After reporting it to my superiors, I received strong support from them."

"What I mean is that the debut of Fenghuo-3, a game cabin with a sense of wholeness, cannot be overemphasized. A representative of the game industry is not enough to speak for it."

"We plan to hold a Fenghuo-3 press conference for you after the opening ceremony. Let all media reporters know about this. What do you think?"

Cai Gou felt Zhao Guang's attention to him and nodded: "Of course I have no problem. I also want to thank Director Zhao for giving me the platform. But will this be too much trouble for you, the organizer?"

Zhao Guang smiled from ear to ear and said hurriedly: "No trouble, no trouble, Fenghuo-3 will definitely add luster to the Journey Cup. Maybe this Journey Cup will go down in history!"
