Super Game Empire

In the afternoon, Yang Yun called several persons in charge of the Longteng headquarters in Beijing and held a brief meeting via telephone, mainly to put forward some improvement ideas for the SS host.

Fang Jindonghui reported: "We have developed 4 sets of different customized special handles based on human mechanics, plus the standard model, a total of 5 sets, and the gamers have received a good response. And we have received a keyboard mouse peripheral

There is basically no feedback, and there are very few. I don’t think it is necessary to develop a set of keyboard and mouse specifically.”

Zhao Yongping had talked to Yang Yun before, and knew Yang Yun's concerns, so he took the initiative to remind Yang Yun: "Although Longteng is involved in both SS and PC games, SS can be absolutely controlled, and the PC client can be said to be unlimited.

Yes, we can't reach it. So I suggest that we should not set a precedent unless we have to."

It is unbearable in Zhao Yongping's eyes to make the games on the two platforms interconnected and interoperable.

Zhang Guoqiang asked back: "But have you ever thought about how to chat and type when we do online battles without a keyboard and mouse? Our SS platform has always reserved a network interface, although many games do not have online functions for the time being.

But as industry leaders, we must not ignore this issue! What if everyone makes online games in the future?"

Yang Yun's eyes lit up when he heard this. Unexpectedly, Zhang Guoqiang was thinking quite far.

Inoue Shin-ei also agreed to make keyboard peripherals, and he used "Five Thousand Years of Up and Down" as an example: "The biggest feature of the Battle Network platform is sharing experience. Communication in the Internet should still use text as a carrier, and chat and typing are very good.

Necessary. So if you have to discuss the results on the SS host this time, my suggestion is to do it!"

There were many different opinions. Everyone put forward their opinions, and Yang Yun weighed the pros and cons, and finally made up his mind.

"We need to make keyboards and mouses, but we cannot use common standards. We must use our own format, and all peripherals must be produced by ourselves!" Yang Yun said: "We are becoming more and more closely related to China Resources Microelectronics,

Chiyang Group has some small opinions. This time, let’s leave the keyboard and mouse peripherals to Chiyang Group!”

Fang Jindong asked in confusion: "Why do you need to make a dedicated one? If we support compatible universal keyboards, it can greatly reduce R&D and production costs. Isn't this beneficial to consumers and ourselves?"

Yang Yun explained: "On the one hand, we are willing to protect ourselves from the impact of standard keyboards, allowing us to control the number of all supported keyboard games on the SS platform. On the other hand, dedicated keyboards can gather our unique functions.

, providing convenience for future SS access to the Internet."

Give an example. If Shangyang Electronics intends to make "Blood Lion 3" a real-time strategy game for multiplayer online battles, they have two ways to achieve it. One is to develop a PC version and add multiplayer online in "Blood Lion 3"

The functional modules of the battle and enter the public network to connect to the Internet. This is the standard PC real-time strategy game sales method.

Another method is that Shangyang Electronics applies to Longteng to open the software development package and game authorization letter for SS-specific keyboard and mouse. Then it develops the Blood Lion 3, which supports Longteng’s special keyboard and mouse, and is sold on the SS platform, and through Longteng itself

Battle.com, online games with players around the world.

The difference between these two methods is that the PC version of Shangyang Electronics can be released at will. As long as the game quality management review is passed jointly set by Longteng and the country and the game grading is carried out, you can find a dealer to sell the game by yourself.

The SS version must be restricted by Longteng. Longteng allows "Blood Lion 3" to be used as a keyboard, mouse and battle network. It can only be released. Otherwise, if Longteng does not allow it, if players want to play "Blood Lion 3" that supports keyboard, mouse,

Only find the PC version.

Zhao Yongping carefully evaluated this practice and finally figured it out. He suddenly realized: "Although we cannot limit whether game makers are making PC versions, we can make game makers on the SS platform who want to support keyboard operations to give up the PC version. This can ensure SS

After getting used to the coordination of the controller and keyboard, players will not take the initiative to look for the PC version. They are also loyal supporters of SS!”

Yang Yun said with satisfaction: "Yes! That's what it means! As long as we strictly control quantity and contracts, consumers will not encounter conflicts between SS and PC games."

"Blood Lion 3" cannot be played on SS without Longteng's keyboard authorization, because players cannot use the normal standard keyboard at all. How can it make real-time strategy? This is what Longteng designed and controlled the SS special keyboard itself.

Necessity!

If any player likes "Blood Lion 3", he can only put down his handle and operate it on the PC. After playing, he will still return to the living room to run Longteng's own "Diablo 1" and on the Internet.

Friends are playing together and chatting with SS dedicated peripheral keyboard suite, because there is no such game as Dark 1 on the PC...

Fang Jindong asked: "Then Mr. Yang, how should this keyboard be designed? Just like an ordinary PC keyboard peripheral, will you add several encryption and restriction modules?"

It was hard to explain on the phone. Yang Yun had the impression of a PS handle keyboard. It was installed in the middle of the PS handle and stuck tightly above the rocker. The width did not exceed the total width of the handle. In addition to the standard arrangement of 26 English letters, it was not only arranged in standard manner.

, there are also 10 numeric keys of 1-0, as well as common function keys such as shift, Tab (CapsLock), Enter, backspace, ESC, etc., and even a touchpad in laptops.

"When I return to the capital, I will give you another design sketch. We must apply for a patent for this kind of peripheral device in advance!"

Yang Yun finally made up his mind to solve this hesitation problem.

Then, things will not be so difficult. There is also a perspective control of Diablo 1. Yang Yun found Marcos and explained it with the SS handle.

"The rocker on the left, or the cross direction key, can control the character's movement, you have done this. The rocker on the right controls the field of view, which is to simulate the movement of the mouse. The function key of the index finger of the right hand simulates the left mouse button and the middle finger of the right hand.

The function keys imitate the right mouse button, and the triangle round squares and fork control the function keys. Isn't it very simple?"

Yang Yun held the handle in both hands and asked Marcos to watch his right hand movement. This was indeed convenient. The only change was that the mouse movement turned into a right thumb rocker control.

Marcos suddenly realized: "I understand. This is the mouse. If we connect to another keyboard, all the problems can be solved! I am really... looking forward to the moment when the game is made!"

Yang Yun laughed: "I'm looking forward to it too! Marcos, the plot and levels are left to you, there is no pressure from other companies. I hope you can make a perfect Diablo 1 out of the way.

We must strive for excellence and report to me at any time if there is not enough manpower.”

Leave the design of Diablo 1 to Blizzard employees, Yang Yun only needs to keep an eye on it from time to time.

Yang Yun’s biggest change for this game is to cancel the Hellfire Expansion, merge it into Dark 1, and then move it to the SS platform.

Longteng doesn’t need to release one every year, and then it will attract the players’ appetites. Yang Yun doesn’t need to do this.

Because players all know that the product produced by Longteng must be a high-quality product!

"Diablo 1" will surely set off a huge storm in the game industry and sweep the magic RPG game market!

...

...

After staying at the Shanghai R&D Center for three more days, Yang Yun took the time to meet Zhu Shuguang.

One is to report on the progress of Loongson, and the other is to build film and television game bases. Both are quite long investment cycles and have a wide range of interests. It is impossible to make a decision in a short period of time. Both have been delayed for a long time.

Zhu Shuguang seemed to be thoughtful. After seeing Yang Yun, he didn't be too polite and said, "Go out with me for a walk."

Yang Yun followed him silently and asked his secretary Xiao Liu with his eyes. The other party was indeed secretive and had to sit in an ordinary car, not knowing where to drive.

It took about an hour before the car stopped. Zhu Shuguang was speechless along the way, and Yang Yun and his secretary Xiao Liu were even more arrogant and did not dare to go out.

After getting off the bus, Yang Yun found that this was a remote village, and the country roads were just poured with cement. Farmers were working hard in the fields, and the crops and seedlings grew vigorously. The wind blew, and the original smell of the soil was like spring.

The meaning of going outing and relaxing.

Yang Yun was still taking deep breaths without excessive polluted air. Zhu Shuguang suddenly said: "This is Hangtou Town, 5 kilometers north of here. The municipal government intends to build a provincial-level expressway from Pudong Airport to Jiaxing. It is expected that

The investment scale exceeds 10 billion. If you allocate a 20 square kilometers of land here, would you be satisfied?"

The best location is of course allocated to the Pudong New Area!

It is almost ten kilometers away from Central China, and it is already very remote. In the future, the transportation is inconvenient, so it is not good, right?

Yang Yun asked with a tentative smile: "Is there no location in the city of Pudong?"

Zhu Shuguang said angrily: "20 square kilometers! Do you think the land in Pudong city is cabbage?"

Yang Yun touched the back of his head, laughed and said nothing, that's right, such a large piece of land in Pudong city area is too extravagant and wasteful!

Xiao Liu came over and spread out a planning map. The planned Provincial Highway S32 extends from the airport to Jiaxing. The Hangtou Town is still south, almost 30 kilometers away from the city center.

"Oh, let me ask, where is that drip lake?" Yang Yun suddenly remembered something. Before he was reborn, he was a reporter from a game magazine and was very sensitive to the lifting of the Chinese game console government order. In 2013, the government issued a lifting order for the game console ban.

, This happened when the free trade zone was established in Shanghai.

Don’t take the opportunity to find a bargain, this is not Yang Yun’s style!
