You said you would make games by yourself, but how did you become the richest man by doing nothing?
#35 - Disturbing the old man's heart
Jianghai City, Jiangdong District, a quaint riverside villa.
Wuya, one of the renowned "Central Plains Five Editors" in the field of game appreciation, is lecturing his students in his study.
The Central Plains Five Editors are divided into East, West, North, South, and Center. The one sitting in Shenzhen is the Southern Editor, Thomas, nicknamed "Wind Walker".
The reason for this nickname is because his game reviews are published as swiftly as the wind. In the field of game reviews, he excels at blitzkrieg tactics to gain the upper hand.
And the one sitting in Jianghai City is the Eastern Editor, Wuya, nicknamed "Carefree Wanderer".
Completely different from Thomas, Wuya's publishing speed is very slow.
He is known for digging into various production details of new games, with a flowery writing style, complex rhetoric, and in-depth interpretation of various behind-the-scenes production details of games, emphasizing the design concepts behind the games, and predictions for industry development.
Wuya has been famous in the industry for nearly thirty years, so at over fifty years old, his position among the Central Plains Five Editors is second only to the head of the Central Plains Five Editors, the Central Editor Daji, nicknamed "Fairy Fox", who sits in Mount Hua.
Thomas's main battlefield is self-media gamefeeds.
Wuya's main battlefield is more important. He has been a special guest on the ninth channel of Jianghai City TV, "Esports World", for many years.
Therefore, many young people come to learn from him.
For more than thirty years, Wuya's students and former officials have been all over the game media circle.
Although he is over fifty years old, he still insists on continuing to run editing teaching classes in his own study.
In the spacious and bright study, a large number of yellowed ancient books are neatly displayed on the bookshelves.
A huge I Ching Bagua diagram hangs on one side of the wall.
In the middle of the study, there is a delicate rosewood desk, and elegant stationery is placed on it.
Wuya, wearing a Ru shirt, stood by the desk, looking seriously at his students.
"I have taught you all before, the general trend of the world is that after a long period of division, there will be unity, and after a long period of unity, there will be division.
Now Tenghui and Youyi are fighting for hegemony, but the star of generals is moving east. Last year, I calculated that a new overlord with a founding team of four people will emerge in Jianghai City.
Although one of the founders dropped out halfway, this does not prevent them from rising from the depths, until a three-legged situation is formed in the world several years later!"
Speaking of this, Wuya's face suddenly became serious.
"...Things should have been like this, but more than a month ago, I observed the celestial phenomena at night, and the Dragon and Phoenix stars suddenly descended, and the number of days changed. In the game field, a new chaotic storm will inevitably be set off."
Many students think that Wuya is neurotic and don't care about his bragging, and leave after learning writing skills.
But some students still listen with gusto.
One of thepockmarked young men said flatteringly: "Teacher's analysis is really good, please say more, we love to listen."
"Hmph, love to listen, love to listen, do you think of my place as a comedy house?"
Wuya's face changed drastically, and he threw a piece of draft paper on the pockmarked face.
"Look at the homework you handed in, do you call this a game review?"
The pockmarked face picked it up in confusion and looked at it.
"Teacher, there is no problem with what I wrote. The key points you taught, such as art details, scene settings, character design, special effects performance, and the impact analysis of lighting and shadow effects on the game atmosphere, I have all written them."
Wuya looked disappointed.
"You only learned my skills, but you forgot my art(术: art/method)."
He looked at the Bagua diagram on the wall.
"As game connoisseurs, when we get a new game, we should first feel the 'qi(气: energy/spirit)' and 'potential(势: momentum/trend)' it contains.
The producer with a sense of integrity makes games that are also magnificent and boundless.
This 'qi' and 'potential' are also hidden in the various details of the game, whether it is the sky sphere lighting in a certain scene, or the volumetric clouds, or even the normal map, you can find the 'qi' spilled out by the producer.
This is the soul of the game."
The students looked confused, can you see the 'qi' from the normal map?
Suddenly, Wuya's cell phone rang.
He frowned when he saw the caller information, walked next door and answered the phone.
"Mr. Wuya, long time no see, Thomas sends his regards."
Wuya snorted coldly: "You are a busy man, why are you looking for me? I'm afraid it's nothing but a free lunch, right?"
Thomas's tone was still polite: "Old sir, it has been three years since our Central Plains Five Editors met at the summit of Mount Hua. Since then, I have been busy all day and have never visited. I am afraid that sir will blame me, so this time, I want to send a big gift to apologize."
"Oh?" Wuya raised his eyebrows.
"The public relations department of Tenghui Company knows that the old gentleman lives in seclusion and does not like to be disturbed.
Therefore, entrusting me as an intermediary, I would like to introduce the old gentleman to a considerable business deal, just need the old gentleman to give a positive evaluation of the game "Bitch Mother Paradise Adventure" on the TV show next weekend."
"Bitch Mother Paradise? I'm not interested in this field."
Wuya's main review direction is ancient historical, martial arts, and Xianxia games.
"This kind of shameless game will disrupt my Dao heart(道心: Dao heart/heart of the Tao)."
"Tenghui also knows that if the old gentleman reviews this game, it will be very hard, so they have specially prepared a small gift - an authentic painting by the Red Stone Master just auctioned off from Sotheby's."
Wuya was silent for three minutes.
"My Dao heart is as firm as a rock, what's the harm in reviewing a mere game?"
Thomas was overjoyed and struck while the iron was hot:
"In addition, I would also like to ask the old gentleman to criticize Taoyuan Township's Cat Girl Paradise on the show, mainly to say that Cat Girl Paradise is not as exquisite as Bitch Mother Paradise in various details, and to express a pessimistic expectation for Taoyuan Township's new game.
--Of course, these are all facts, the old gentleman will know after trying these two games."
"These are also Tenghui's requirements?"
"...Yes."
Thomas agreed on the surface, but he knew very well that the request for Wuya to criticize Taoyuan Township was entirely his own selfish agenda.
Anyway, Tenghui has given such a big deal, wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't take advantage of it?
"I am aware of it."
After hanging up the phone, Thomas breathed a sigh of relief.
His offensive against Taoyuan Township Company on the game feeds has already set off a considerable storm on the Internet.
If the more heavyweight Wuya also joins the fray, Taoyuan Township will undoubtedly be more passive.
"Taoyuan Township Company, savor the consequences of offending the Central Plains Five Editors."
Thomas shook the whiskey in his hand. This time, not only Tenghui personally came down to start the group, but two of the Central Plains Five Editors also dispatched. How can you, Taoyuan Township, turn the tables?
Young people are arrogant and domineering, this time I, Thomas, will teach you how to behave!
After returning from the temple fair, Liu Mengyuan and the other two began to finalize the game.
First of all, inspired by the temple fair, they decided to create a more magnificent "World Central Island" on the basis of the "Regional Central Island".
The World Central Island is very large and is the gathering place for all players on the server.
To reach the World Central Island, players need to unlock advanced technology, create large seagoing vessels that will not be destroyed by storms, and teleport through the edge of the sea.
On the World Central Island, there is a larger trading market where all players on the server can trade resources, equipment, spirit eggs, recipes, treasure maps, quest scrolls, building blueprints, fashion, furniture, handmade decorations...
There are also mysterious world legend quests on the island for all players on the server to cooperate on.
The beach volleyball, watermelon smashing, surfing, sandcastle building and other holiday tourism projects that were previously made were all stuffed into the World Central Island.
Liu Mengyuan also added temple fairs, music festivals and other celebrations.
Even on the beach, she added the social easter egg of applying sunscreen.
