Number One Game Designer

The United States is a typical immigrant country, all people immigrated from Europe.

Fang Xi suspects that the three of Aoge may have Nordic blood, tall and rough, more like pirates than programmers.

The discussion between the three of them was also very pirate-like. Before Fang Xi could finish explaining to Chen Yu, the three of them came down from upstairs.

Fang Xi suspected that the three of them hadn't touched their heads:

"I think so"

"Me too!"

"Me too!"

So it came down...

As Fang Xi expected, the three quickly reached a consensus and accepted Fang Xi's conditions.

Seeing that the negotiation was completed so neatly, Fang Xi was a little puzzled and said:

"Since you are so straightforward, why did you directly appoint me to come and talk?"

Ogg rubbed his hands in embarrassment:

"Brown was the first to contact us about these things. We didn't know about it. Later, we found out that we couldn't change it. Even if we told you that you don't need your boss to come over, it still feels like child's play, so..."

Fang Xi nodded knowingly. Fortunately, he did not contact Brown directly because he wanted to see Chicago. Instead, he chose to find the official website of the studio on the Internet, and came here according to the address.

"That's why Ogg was very excited after seeing you. We saw Hongyi's sincerity, so we naturally fully supported it." Dillon took the words.

Needless to say, Fang Xi will know later that there is a bad debt between Brown and the studio. Fang Xi's appearance not only meets their wishes, but also directly pulls the studio out of this quagmire.

"You can talk to this Mr. Chen about our specific cooperation later." Fang Xi introduced Chen Yu beside him.

Chen Yu also showed a formulaic and impeccable professional smile, which gave the three Nordic brothers a sense of security.

"And me." Fang Xi stood up.

"I'm going to take a walk around your city. You can talk about the specific business matters. I have just explained it to Chen, and he will satisfy you."

Leave Chen Yu to the three strong men, and then tell the three strong men that Chen Yu will satisfy them, emmmmmmm

Always feeling weird, Fang Xi drove away the inexplicable thoughts in his head, opened the door and left.

After going out, Fang Xi heard the door rang again behind him, and turned around just in time to see Ogg chasing him out.

"Mr. FANG, ah, no, boss, I have a car, let me show you around?"

...

Chicago is a city in the middle of the United States built on a lake. It is a typical financial and academic center. It has tall buildings and a good climate. It also attracts many tourists every year. There is the famous University of Chicago, and the well-known Chicago School in the United States was born here. .

Seeing Ogg in the driver's seat talking about Amway Chicago to himself, Fang Xi almost laughed out loud. Ogg may think he is not familiar with this city, but in fact he is no stranger to this city.

In the last time and space, the most famous work under R star should be the GTA series. The city "Liberty City" where the third and fourth works of this series are located is based on the fiction of Chicago and New York. At that time, Fang Xi also spent a lot of time here, especially the light rail in Chicago, which he was fascinated by as a child.

Not to mention the famous Batman Dark Knight trilogy filmed by Christopher Nolan later in film and television, in which Gotham City is set in Chicago.

Students who are familiar with comics should know how crazy Gotham City is in Batman. There is a saying that "Gotham City is simple and honest, and Arkham is warm and hospitable". The director put Gotham's scene here because Chicago is the real "Sin City" in the real world.

The city is thriving on the surface, murders and crimes are emerging in secret,

As far as Fang Xi remembers, there were 300 murders in Chicago in 2X18, and 500 cases involving firearms. The police seized more than 500 guns from the streets in a year. rate dropped by 30%. The crime rate in Chicago is far behind all other cities in the United States, so Fang Xi just smiled and nodded.

As beautiful as Chicago's daytime is, the nighttime is as terrifying, so Fang Xi can only smile at Ogg's Amway.

"This city can inspire a lot, right? A collision of good and evil."

Ogg smiled awkwardly. He said so much just now to tell Fang Xi that there are still beautiful things in this city. After all, to the outside world, Chicago's notoriety is more famous. There is a saying that "good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles." Probably this is it The effect, but then again, the average number of people who die from crime in Chicago is thousands of people a year, and the police can seize more than 500 guns in a year to fight crime. You say that Chicago is safe and others...

"It's actually alright during the day." Ogg showed an embarrassing smile of "exposing the family scandal".

"My family used to be Norwegian and came to the United States for generations to fish for a living, but in my generation, I am more interested in video games."

He was waiting for a red light here, so Ogg talked a little bit more.

“I later discovered that video games are complicated to make, but fun, and Chicago is really an inspiring place.”

That is, Fang Xixin said, you might have to carry a gun in your pocket when you go out to buy groceries, it is simply a realistic version of cyberpunk.

"So here we are, recruiting people with similar interests and starting a studio together."

"It was our dream to make a game like Left 4 Dead, and we both said that it would be great if Raccoon City in Left 4 Dead could be modeled after Chicago."

Speaking of this, Fang Xi pondered for a while before seriously answering:

"The theme of Left 4 Dead at that time was to focus on disasters, so Raccoon City represented all the good things of human beings, family affection, love, a healthy and perfect city, and Umbrella Company was the complete opposite, so that zombies would destroy Raccoon City, and the players' touch bigger."

"In my opinion, Chicago is a perfect city for inspiration. This city should have its own unique history and its own story."

Speaking of this Ogg, I am also deeply touched. The large-scale gun crimes that occurred in the United States after the millennium are basically related to Chicago. The reality of Sin City is really not a bragging. This city is related to these things from the blood factor Inseparable, Ogg even thought of his grandfather. It is said that his grandfather was tired of fishing and went to the streets of Chicago. After disappearing for five years, when he came back, he lost three toes and had more toes on his body. A few bullet holes and two broken fingers. Since then, I have kept secret about that experience. These also belong to the history of Los Angeles.

"You might as well try to use this city as the stage to tell a story about a gangster. As for the name... What do you think of the name "Grand Theft Auto"?"
