Number One Game Designer

Chen Yu spoke without thinking

"I'm going to add the in-game drift skill guide training level now."

Fang Xi hummed and did not agree. After considering that it was Fang Xi's first time working on a large-scale production, he couldn't ask too much. Fang Xi directly said what he had already considered:

"Refer to the difficulty selection function in RPG games, and add the 'one-click drift' function to the game. Novice players can use this function to drift quickly. If veteran players are interested, they can go to the training ground and rely on braking and steering in the game to exercise themselves. Manual drift."

"As for more trust, I don't need to say, I have great expectations for you."

Chen Yu has always been a bit taciturn, didn't say much, bowed to Fang Xi to the end, and then left quickly.

At this time, Zhao Mengmeng, who was next to her, jumped up and said, "You look so scary just now!"

Fang Xi was helpless: If I was scary, why would you still lean on me!

"Hey, is your game production like this? It feels very fun!"

Fang Xi pointed to the hall and said.

As I said before, the lobby of the R\u0026D department on this floor is basically open, with various things scattered in the middle. If you erase the many computers in it, you can say that this is a racing club or a car design studio. No problem either.

There are people coming and going here, everyone is talking in a low voice, many designers are performing their duties, Zhao Mengmeng is very curious to see.

Fang Xi has long been accustomed to all this, so he took a sip of tea and said:

"Game design is like this. If you want to make a game related to a certain industry or field, you don't need to know it very well, as long as the public's research on this field is above the average level. For example, when making "Assassin" , I re-read the Spring and Autumn period books such as "Zuo Zhuan", "Gongyang Biography", "Warring States Policy" and other books together with the group of people in our department's holy order. I even read the more important plots. Can write silently on the spot.”

"Here they are making a racing game, so they have to know more about racing games than most people in a short period of time, and the game made in this way can appear professional, um... this is actually a bit similar to your dad's In the actor industry, if we want to play a role well, we must first understand it in depth, and if we want to make a good type of game, we also need to understand it in depth.”

"I don't seem to have asked, why do you want to do game design?"

Asked this question, the girl beside Fang Xi finally calmed down. She focused on the busy designers in the venue and said leisurely:

"Brother Fang, you are my father's good friend, so it goes without saying about our family's situation. When I was young, my father had to work three jobs a day. At that time, he could only leave me at home alone, and he would do it for me in advance when he went out. A good day's meal, and then I have no one to talk to, and no one to play games with, only video games to accompany me."

"And what I didn't expect was that my father would change his fate because of a game,

He must have never told you how excited he was after getting the plot of "Left 4 Dead". "At this time, Zhao Mengmeng's face didn't have any arrogance and domineering expression, only nostalgia and endless gentleness.

"He told me that night that his greatest achievement was having me as a daughter. He couldn't imagine losing me. He said that we would soon be able to move to a spacious place. Dad said his greatest achievement was me. You can live your life as you want.”

Zhao Mengmeng's narration of Zhao Jiamo's memories is very short, but she successfully established a father figure. Fang Xi was quite critical of Zhao Jiamo's doting before, but now it seems to be understandable, and it seems that Zhao Meng Meng is not as domineering as imagined, her domineering and domineering is more likely to be the sharp shell of a soft heart.

Boss Fang felt that he had to do something, and remembered that Zhao Jiamo and the Zhao Mengmeng he had mentioned seemed to have a good talent for painting, and he could draw even if he had nothing to do.

"Why don't I teach you how to draw storyboards." Fang Xi said, "In the future, whether you want to make games or follow your father into the film and television industry, you need to be proficient in storyboarding."

...

It was already night when Fang Xi arrived at Hongyi's branch office, and it was already dark after teaching Zhao Mengmeng to draw storyboards for two hours.

These two hours have changed Fang Xi's view of Zhao Mengmeng greatly. This little girl who gave him a headache before is quite beautiful when she calms down and concentrates on painting. The sense of beauty also made Fang Xi more curious about how beautiful Zhao Mengmeng's mother was, Zhao Mengmeng's girlfriend back then, to give birth to such a naturally beautiful daughter.

After Zhao Mengmeng drew the storyboard for two hours, Zhao Jiamo came to pick her up. In essence, Fang Xi was just helping to take care of the child in the afternoon, but the result was at least not bad. She discovered the more beautiful side of this little girl.

Sending Zhao Mengmeng away is Fang Xi's own problem.

When facing Chen Yu in the afternoon, Fang Xi actually wanted to talk about a lot of changes, but when the words came to his mouth, Fang Xi had another idea, so at that time he just told Chen Yu about the changes to "drift" in the game.

And in the middle of the night, also in the company, at this time people had almost left, Fang Xi and Chen Yu were sitting opposite each other in the lounge.

"Chen Yu, this time may take a little time for you. I need you to prepare to start a new company here... Well, forget it, let's add a new department to your branch."

Chen Yu sat still and waited for Fang Xi's order. Fang Xi nodded appreciatively:

"On the one hand, it is to build momentum for your game, and on the other hand, it is to fill in the content so that it complements the game, so I hope you can use the environment of Haifang City to recruit a large number of outstanding cultural creators. Matching novels, comics, and even anime dramas.”

Just like in the entertainment industry, many singers often act and the best sing, and the game is similar. If there is enough funds and backup force, fans will love to create peripheral creations, and even expand directly from point to surface. A game world is not impossible. For example, Japan's famous Xingyue series has become a complete world supported by game novels and anime.

Chen Yu was just not very transparent in terms of creativity, and he was transparent about other things, so after Fang Xi raised it, he basically understood the meaning of this move, so he immediately nodded and understood:

"I will create a complete ecological environment for the code name Qiu Mingshan!"

But Fang Xi felt that it was more than that, and even said:

"A few well-known screenwriters in the industry are invited to start writing movie scripts based on the main plot of the game, um... You can also contact Beiyang City to intersperse Easter eggs from Hongyi Universe in the movie."
