Rebirth 86: I use games to kick open the door to the world

"What? Are you going to Japan? Why did you make this decision suddenly? Which school is preparing to recruit you? Tokyo University? Or some other school?"

Zuo Zhen found Zhang Xueren, hoping to get the other party's permission to write a letter of introduction to increase his success rate in going to Japan.

"It's not a teacher. I'm here to find Akira Nakamura. The two of us have agreed to meet in twenty days."

Zhang Xueren seemed to have thought of something and asked tentatively: "Has your video game achieved results?"

Zuo Zhen nodded with a smile: "That's right."

"So soon? I thought it would take at least a year and a half for video games to be profitable, and it's only been more than two months?"

Zuo Zhen roughly talked to Zhang Xueren about his game results and made some money, but it still took a lot of effort to get it back.

Zuo Zhen used to sign a new contract on the one hand, and get the money on the other.

Zhang Xueren was surprised, and at the same time he was happy for Zuo Zhen.

It seems that my original choice was right.

So he readily wrote a letter of introduction.

A letter of introduction from a university professor is still very convincing.

On the other side, Zuo Zhen's current teacher Zhan Weishan was a little confused.

Zuo Zhen just told Zhan Weishan that he had personal matters to go to Japan and would be back soon.

Teacher Zhang Xueren has also written a letter of introduction to him.

But to be on the safe side, Zuo Zhen wanted to ask Zhan Weishan for another letter of introduction.

What kind of things can a college student do of his own?

Janvishan didn’t understand.

But this was Zuo Zhen's decision, and he could only persuade.

"Teacher Zhang Xueren has already written to you, so I don't have any objections. You can go if you want, but it's not impossible if you want me to write a letter of introduction. There are just conditions."

"What conditions?"|

"It's what I told you before, the text editing software used under the existing operating system."

Zuo Zhen answered simply: "It's better."

"If this software is not completed... hmm? What did you just say?"

Zhan Weishan was still talking to himself, but suddenly realized that Zuo Zhen seemed to answer the question faster than him.

"I said I've finished it. Teacher, I came to you and I'm ready to hand over the software I made to you."

Zuo Zhen took out a floppy disk and placed it on Zhan Weishan's desk.

There is a program written by Zuo Zhen that is similar to an EXL form.

This was not difficult for Zuo Zhen to make. He spent about half a month in the early stage to make it.

It has basic table text editing, and Zuo Zhen even added basic function calculation functions to this table that were common in later generations.

However, now we only have addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and it is not yet up to the point where a set of functions can make the table play well.

This is an exchange between himself and teacher Zhan Weishan. Zhan Weishan allows Zuo Zhen to play his games in school and provides various conveniences.

Zuo Zhen, on the other hand, needs to develop a form editing software within one semester.

To finish it now is really beyond Janeway Mountain's expectations.

He originally thought he could use this to hinder Zuo Zhen a little.

Of course, he won't deliberately make things difficult, after all, this is still his student.

The corners of Zhan Weishan's eyes twitched.

This Zuo Zhen is indeed very talented.

such a pity.

Too bad he took the wrong route.

With his talent, he can definitely go to a large computer research institute in the future.

If Zuo Zhen enters such a unit at his age, his future prospects are absolutely limitless.

As for the video games I made, the few thousand dollars I made were really nothing in comparison.

"Xiao Zuo, if you are like this, I won't say anything, but I still want to advise you that video games have no future and the teacher will not harm you."

"I know." Zuo Zhen nodded, "I know the teacher is doing it for my own good, but I have my own path."

"Okay, you make up your own mind."

Zhan Weishan knew from the time he brought Zuo Zhen to the computer science major that Zuo Zhen was a very independent person. Unless he hit the wall, he would definitely be able to turn back.

He briefly tested Zuo Zhen's form software and found that there was indeed no problem, so he simply wrote a letter of introduction to Zuo Zhen.

"By the way, you will return to China, right?"

Zhan Weishan finished writing the letter of introduction, and then stared at Zuo Zhen deeply.

"Yes, China is my root, and this will never change."

Zuo Zhen's eyes were very firm, and he answered Zhan Weishan's question without any hesitation.

"Okay, then this is a letter of introduction."

Zhan Weishan wrote the letter of introduction and gave it to Zuo Zhen, and continued to persuade Zuo Zhen with earnest words.

But Zuo Zhen always hears this kind of words in one ear and out the other.

He has very clear goals for himself and will not change easily because of the teacher's persuasion.

What's more, he has now seen the money back. As long as he gets it back to China, he can officially start his gaming career.

In the next twenty days, Zuo Zhen kept traveling to several government agencies, and had to go through all kinds of document procedures before he could officially leave the country.

His self-funded trips abroad will also be subject to strict scrutiny, because in recent years it has often been the case that people lose contact as soon as they go abroad.

Everyone knows that those people are unwilling to come back after seeing the outside world.

Therefore, people like Zuo Zhen who travel alone need to confirm more strictly.

Fortunately, Zuo Zhen obtained letters of introduction from two university teachers in advance, one of whom was a doctoral professor. This saved Zuo Zhen some trouble and prevented him from completely losing hope of going abroad.

In the next twenty days, Zuo Zhen concentrated on making his third official game, while also making some enhancements to the quality of the old game.

Enhanced games may not necessarily be effective. Zuo Zhen regarded this as a practice for Yu Mengchen, allowing her to become more familiar with game development faster.

The last and most important game is also another new game that Zuo Zhen attaches great importance to this time.

He plans to sign a new contract with Squirrel Wars.

Zuo Zhen stared at the computer screen, which was playing the screen of his latest game.

Mega Man.

This is another classic side-scrolling game in Zuo Zhen’s memory.

Unlike previous games, Mega Man is more difficult and is only a single-player side-scrolling game.

The good thing is that I already have experience in making two side-scrolling games in a row. I took Yu Mengchen to make games while busy with other things and quickly completed this one.

All that's left is to bring the completed version of Mega Man to Japan and sign a licensing agreement together.

In this way, the two games will be released at the same time, and the subsequent development will be like a snowball.

"How about Zuo Zhen? Is this picture okay?" Yu Mengchen stood behind Zuo Zhen expectantly, as if he wanted to get Zuo Zhen's approval.
