National Game Producer

At six o'clock in the evening, He Jiu returned home.

His parents are still alive, and their relationship has always been stable. He can basically live without worries about food and clothing, and his life is going smoothly... provided that he ignores his adopted son.

Xu Xiurong, who was busy in the kitchen, saw her son returning home late. Without asking any questions, she just said "it's time to eat" and went to the restaurant to prepare.

He Xu didn't say much either. He quietly walked into the kitchen and filled a small bowl of rice, then turned and sat down at the dining table.

Ever since "his" romance was discovered and stopped in his freshman year of high school, he had completely entered a state of ruin. He began to resent the school, his parents, and the entire world. His academic performance plummeted, and his relationship with his parents also hit rock bottom.

To this day, although the aborted relationship has been slowly forgotten by "him", the relationship between him and his parents has never been repaired. In addition, his academic performance has not improved, and his parents often fall into trouble because of this.

The negative emotions of disappointment, self-blame, and annoyance made it increasingly difficult for both parties to communicate, and in the end they could barely maintain a superficial family relationship.

Of course, from He Ji's point of view now, it is only a matter of words from him to repair such family relations.

"Your dad is working overtime tonight. You don't have to wait for him. Let's eat first." Xu Xiurong held the bowl and sat down across from her.

"Yeah." He Xiu nodded and quietly picked up vegetables and ate.

"Eat more vegetables, don't just focus on those pieces of meat."

"oh."

"...I asked you to eat less meat, but I didn't ask you not to eat meat."

"oh."

"...There are washed strawberries next to the sink. I'll go get them later." Xu Xiurong's tone became colder and she stopped making any sound after she finished speaking.

"...Hmm." He Xu responded softly and continued to play his role.

The restaurant quickly fell silent, and only the small sounds of the two people picking up food and eating could be heard.

Five minutes later, He Jiu finished his meal, quickly put his bowl on the table, and stood up silently.

The dinner was the same as usual, and even the deserted atmosphere was almost the same as before.

No one will think there is anything wrong with this.

He Hu walked into the kitchen and took out the plate of strawberries next to the sink. When he was about to leave the restaurant, he stopped again, tilted his head and said:

"I plan to take the Qingdao University entrance examination."

After saying that, he went straight back to his bedroom with the strawberries in hand.

"Qingda..."

Xu Xiurong was stunned there, unable to regain consciousness for a long time.

Qingda... should refer to Qinglin University, right?

Which key university ranks second in the province and among the top 30 in the country?

...What stimulation did this kid receive to say such a whimsical thing?

…

He Jiu closed the door, put the strawberry on the corner of the desk, and sat down sideways.

Studying hard and getting admitted to a key university was something he had considered on his way home.

This was his explanation to his parents, and it was also a way to find a way out for himself in advance.

After all, he was reborn in high school in a parallel world, and it was impossible for him to continue to follow the rules throughout his student years.

During this period, he will always do something he wants to do.

As for the question of whether you can get into a key university...

With the foundation he laid before falling out of love in the first year of high school, coupled with his mind, it is actually not too difficult to achieve this goal.

What's more, he also has a good front desk to ask for advice.

'However, before you trouble others, you still have to improve your relationship first...'

If you want to build a good relationship, you must first complete the group assignments seriously.

He Jiu raised his eyes and glanced around, took out paper and pen, and after a moment of silence, he began to think about the detailed plot flow of the game.

…

As the pen strokes across the paper, my thoughts slowly wander along with my memories.

As he wrote, He Jiu's attention was unconsciously drawn to other places by his complicated emotions.

It suddenly occurred to him that the reason why the school cares about the quality of games and needs to conduct regular assessments of students' game production levels is not only because of official requirements and the commercial value of high-quality games themselves, but also because——

The better the quality of the game and the more immersive it is, the more it can enhance the mental strength of the creators and players.

This should be a positive feedback process that is very consistent with ordinary people's values.

Unfortunately……

Schools are teaching students to make good games, but in the real world, games like "Fireworks in Dreams" are very popular.

Some game studios just take advantage of the number of fans to quickly market games with average or even low quality.

On the surface, those studios are selling games, but in fact they are selling the appearance and persona of the game producers. By the way, they are also subtly distorting the direction of the entire game market. They can be said to be heinous and heinous.

Compared with the games produced by these game studios, the krypton gold web games and reskinned mobile games in the previous life are...well, they are only half as good.

Moreover, there are no online games in this world such as MMOs, MOBAs, and RTSs that focus on social interaction and confrontation between players. Playing these games basically cannot improve your mental power, nor can you improve your mental power, so naturally no one will study them.

In this way, it will further fuel the arrogance of games like "Fireworks in Dreams".

After all, these types of games can indeed improve players' mental strength... although their improvement effect is very limited.

‘Bad money drives out good money, this is similar to the entertainment industry in previous lives...’

He Xu finished writing two lines absentmindedly, and finally couldn't help but put down his pen and turned his attention to the three-piece "Editing Resonator" set aside.

He now wants to try making a game.

He really wants to know if the game market in this world really can no longer accommodate the high-quality games of the previous life.

Thinking of this, He Xu simply took the [Editor Resonator] to his side and put on his hat and glasses.

According to the operation method in his memory, he first adjusted the mode of the instrument to the editing mode, then focused his attention on the display screen of the VR glasses, and quickly fell into thinking.

Within a moment, his consciousness was connected with the virtual space in the display screen, and he gradually gained the authority to change this virtual space at will.

'It feels simpler than imagined...'

He Xu breathed a sigh of relief.

From a gaming perspective alone, this set of instruments should be considered a relatively mature brain-computer interface.

Going forward, it will probably be the path of "connecting the five senses of the human body and creating immersive holographic simulation equipment."

'I hope I can see such a device before I graduate from college...'

He Xu muttered in his heart, then collected his thoughts and turned his attention to the game he wanted to make.

As early as when he discussed the game theme with Yu Suai, he had already thought about what game he would like to play next and what game he was capable of making.

Now that it’s just a trial run, naturally the simpler the game, the better.

——He didn’t even bother to write any textual plot, he planned to just make a few characters and original scene paintings and be done with it.

'Then, the next step is to conceive the picture in your mind, let the picture appear on the display screen of the glasses simultaneously, and then use this to edit the specific picture...'

While He Ji recalled the game from his previous life, he began to construct images in the virtual space.

Three seconds later, he suddenly realized that the speed of his recall seemed to be unable to keep up with the speed of picture construction!

wrong……

To be precise, he should have just recalled the name of the game and the general content of the game. The virtual space was already rapidly constructing all the details of the game, and he could quickly connect all the details to form a game by itself.

Complete game.

'This...shouldn't everyone be able to play games like me?'

He Xu looked at the "automatic combination" of the games in the virtual space and fell into a brief daze.

But soon, he realized that this was probably his advantage as a reborn person.

‘Perhaps, as long as I have passed the game and have seen all the contents of the game, it can be reproduced directly in the virtual space... Well, then the old head ring...

‘…Uh, no, not only is there no response at all, but my head hurts terribly… Is it because my mental strength is not strong enough, or is it that the game is too complicated and too delicate to be realized in this way?

'If it's the former, then there may be some hope; if it's the latter, we can only find someone to help us...'

He Jiu retracted his thoughts, took a breath, and temporarily gave up the idea of ​​making a large-scale game.

He turned his attention back to the picture displayed by his glasses.

The previous "automatic combination" game has never stopped building, and it is now approaching a complete product.

He waited patiently for a while until he saw that the game was completed, then he took back control of the virtual space and saved the game.

Switching the instrument's mode back to normal mode, he immediately started the trial.

——As a fully functional household instrument, the [Edit Resonator]’s normal mode is completely comparable to ordinary computers in this world. It basically has all the functions it should have, but at most the hardware performance is slightly worse than the computer.

Some.

‘The operation method is similar to the previous editing mode. Well... the game can be played normally, and the whole process is basically the same as the game in my memory, and there are no bugs...

‘I really made this thing in ten minutes? This is so weird!’

He Xu was confused for a while, and then he decided to make all the follow-up series of this game.

After all, although this game and its subsequent series are simple and niche, they have always been one of his two favorite point-and-click puzzle games.

Most people have some desire to share their favorite games.

‘I hope there will be people in this world who like it, and then I can lead some people with ideas to participate in the production of the same type of games. In the end, even if it only allows me to play a high-quality click-and-click puzzle game, I will be satisfied...

'Well, if conditions permit, you'd better give me more than ten styles...'

He Zhu breathed a sigh of relief, reset the mode of the instrument to the editing mode, and then "automatically" created a new game while making some localized modifications to the game so that some of the content would not appear too obtrusive in this world.
