"After five years of sharpening a sword, Excalibur Network spent 480 million yuan to create an online game of ancient Chinese mythology. ”

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Search for God" will recruit beta players from now on, and a reward of 1,000 yuan will be given for finding a bug, and a reward of 5,000 yuan will be awarded for putting forward excellent suggestions and being adopted. ”

"Excalibur Network calls Blizzard Entertainment, and "The Classic of Mountains and Seas: The Search for God" vows to compete with "World of Warcraft"!"

The team of more than 300 people includes five history (archaeology) professors, four folklore (mythology) research experts, an Oscar winner for Best Original Music, and a Golden Horse Award for Best Costume Design. ”

"Is Song Weiyang, the richest man in China, crazy? He actually spent 480 million yuan to make a game!"

“……”

Since mid-June, reports about the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" have suddenly flooded in. Newspapers, magazines, the Internet, television, as long as there is a text, you can see the news related to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

In just half a month, tens of millions of yuan were spent on publicity, and such an inhumane approach scared domestic businessmen.

The so-called cost of 480 million is pure nonsense, not only including the early publicity and promotion budget, but even the cost of setting up a server, even so it is only about 300 million. And it's not a sword sharpened in five years, from the establishment of the game project to the closed beta, it has only been 4 years. Of course, you can't say that Excalibur is talking nonsense, because if you count the closed beta, public beta, and online beta, it's just over four years, and if you round it up, it's five years.

Anyway, the publicity effect exploded anyway, because the production cost of 480 million yuan was too scary.

Online and offline, there are many discussions about this-

"Song Weiyang has become the richest man, and he still thinks that he doesn't make enough money, so he makes games to poison teenagers. "This is a statement of hatred of online gaming.

"Long live the domestic game, kill the kimchi game, kill the World of Warcraft!" is the speech of the national online gamer.

""Sou Shen Ji has been adapted into a game? "This is a fan of the wild fox under the tree.

"What is 480 million not good? There are still so many poor people in China, Song Weiyang should donate this money!"

"I'm laughing to death, and I'm still calling Blizzard. When Blizzard was making games, Excalibur couldn't even see a shadow, and this broken game didn't deserve to carry shoes for "Warcraft". "It's Blizzard's brainless fan.

"Song Weiyang's profiteer! It's a game closed beta, and what kind of Shenzhou computer and mobile phone users are preferred. Who is using a Shenzhou computer or mobile phone, please send a product code, thank you!" This is the hand-reaching party.

The closed beta of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" has not officially started, and this game is already hot, and agents from all over the country take the initiative to call to contact, hoping to get the right to act as an agent for game point cards. Shenjian Network immediately said that when the sealed test of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" is completed, a national auction of point card agents will be held.

The number of people participating in the closed beta is only 1,000, but the number of applicants is nearly 100,000, which is the result of Shenjian Network's repeated emphasis on computer configuration.

Not to mention other configurations,1G memory is a must,512Although memory can also run,But it will definitely be stuck and quit Internet addiction。 Many domestic home computers,The current memory is still 512M,Around 20008888% of the new computers are this configuration,Excalibur is reminding everyone that it's time to change to a new computer。

There is also the graphics card, at least 30% of the current Internet café computers, its graphics card can not carry the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". If this game becomes popular, it will inevitably promote the upgrading of computers in China's Internet cafes, which can be regarded as a benefit for the majority of netizens.

When Shi Yuzhu received the invitation code for the closed beta, he was playing another game, A3. The reason why I don't play and continue to play "Legend" is because Shi Yuzhu has been blocked for two accounts, this guy writes his own exclusive plug-in program, and it is the kind of one-trick second boss, so it's strange if he is not reported and banned!

In a fit of anger, Shi Yuzhu didn't bother to ask Song Weiyang to get his account back, and directly took his girlfriend to play "A3".

The price of the point cards in this broken game is so expensive, of course Shi Yuzhu doesn't care about that money. The problem is that the number of people online is getting smaller and smaller, and it is not as lively as "Legends", and it always feels like there is a lack of passion that it should have. People are so contradictory, there are too many players in "Legend", and it is not easy to grab monsters, so Shi Yuzhu wrote a plug-in second boss. "A3" is full of plug-ins, almost no one cares, and the monster robbery is not intense, but Shi Yuzhu feels bored.

"Baby, is the game installed?" Shi Yuzhu called his girlfriend.

Shi Yuzhu and his girlfriend belong to a long-distance relationship, and his girlfriend took him to play games. "Journey" in another time and space, according to Shi Yuzhu himself, it was also because he and his girlfriend couldn't find a game to play, so he decided to invest in the development of a game by himself. Then, "Journey" came out, and Shi Yuzhu's girlfriend blew it.

"Journey" was created by Shi Yuzhu in October, digging the development team of Shanda "Age of Heroes". The grand of this time and space is still doing the online community, and the game "Age of Heroes" has not appeared, and I am afraid that Shi Yuzhu's "Journey" will not be born.

"Okay, I've been guarding the computer. The girlfriend replied.

Shi Yuzhu is currently sitting in the office, and there is a booster next to him who is playing "Legend", and has already helped Shi Yuzhu upgrade his new account to level 30. There is also a man named Xie Ming, who is the real game secretary and is responsible for managing Shi Yuzhu's boosting team (two boosters rotate to level up). If Shi Yuzhu wants to develop "Journey", Xie Ming will be transferred to the "Journey" project team as the general manager, and from then on he will go to the peak of his life - another time and space is like this.

"Xiao Xie and Xiao Liang also came to play "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" together, and this time I asked Song Weiyang for four invitation codes. Shi Yuzhu greeted.

The game secretary and booster immediately started logging in, quickly registered their respective accounts, and then guarded the countdown screen of the test server.

It wasn't until 10 o'clock in the morning that the countdown finally became 00:00:00, and the three of them entered the character building interface with a single brush.

Players can currently choose between five clans: Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth, each with their own talents and skills, and they can overcome each other. In addition, the dragon clan and the Jiuli clan are gray and cannot be selected, and it is not known what version can be opened.

In addition, there are eight classes to choose from: Mage, Swordsman, Warrior, Archer, Medicine Master, Witch Zhu, Beast Master, and Gu Alchemist.

Shi Yuzhu studied for a while, and called his girlfriend to ask: "What ethnicity and what profession do you choose?"

"Apothecary, Fire Clan. The girlfriend said.

Shi Yuzhu dragged the mouse over: "The pharmacist seems to be specifically for returning blood to teammates, right? The Wood Clan has the healing bonus of the Pharmacist, and the Water Clan focuses on returning blue to teammates." ”

The girlfriend said: "Pharmacists can also specialize in poison, I have studied it, and the pharmacists of the Water and Fire Tribes are very toxic." ”

"That'll do. Shi Yuzhu felt a headache. Because he likes to cut people directly when playing games, only warriors and swordsmen meet his appetite, but the Jin clan and the fire clan professions have attack bonuses, but the water tribe has life and mana recovery bonuses, and the water tribe doesn't seem to be very powerful.

Reluctantly chose a water warrior, Shi Yuzhu said to the two people around him: "You choose a mage and a beast master, the beast master carries the pet in front, and the mage hides in the back row to output." ”

After speaking, Shi Yuzhu clicked to enter the game, born in a small village under the Stone Mountain, and the screen also appeared from left to right in vertical row of grass small characters: "Two hundred and eighty miles to the north, it is said that the mountain of the stone man, there is no grass and trees on it, and there are many Baguio." The water flows out of the Yan and flows west into the river. There is a beast, its shape is like a leopard, and the title of the text is white, the name is Meng Ji, it is good at fu, and its song is self-calling. - "The Classic of Mountains and Seas, Volume 3, The Classic of the North Mountains". ”

"It's so beautiful!" the agent next to him suddenly exclaimed.

The game graphics are really beautiful, although Shizhi Mountain is like the one recorded in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and there is no grass and trees on the bare mountain. But under the sunset, the mountains and rocks add a bit of desolation and magnificence. Shi Yuzhu ran directly to the outside of the village, and soon arrived at the small river called Zhushui, the surface of the river was sparkling, and even the fish in the river could be seen.

"This game, the picture is more beautiful than "A3"!" Shi Yuzhu couldn't help but exclaim, it was hard for him to imagine that domestic games could do this kind of thing.

Zulong Studio is the development team of "Perfect World", and under Song Weiyang's crazy money, their graphics are simply crazy, and the graphics card requirements of this game are even higher than that of "World of Warcraft".

Xie Ming, the secretary of the game, couldn't help but remind: "Boss, you haven't picked up the task in the village yet." ”

Shi Yuzhu said: "I'll just go around. ”

Shi Yuzhu played with his girlfriend until noon, fought from Shizhi Mountain to Danxun Mountain, and finally could go to Shizhi City, one of the big cities of the Water Triumph. The moment you enter the castle, you feel like you have stepped back in time, but since most of the stone buildings in the castle are made of stone, it also has a bit of a European medieval feel.

"This game is amazing!" Shi Yuzhu's girlfriend ran around the city, and when she saw the house, she drilled into it, as if she had come to travel.

In the afternoon, Shi Yuzhu came to a certain place and subconsciously clicked on the NPC with a yellow greeting, but the NPC asked him to form a team of five. There were only four people on Shi Yuzhu's side, and they quickly formed a single guest, and then the screen reading bar began, they were the first team to play a five-person copy in the closed beta server.

And Shi Yuzhu and they successfully found the BUG, the booster was stuck in the crack of the stone and couldn't get out, but they could keep putting skills to fight the BOSS, but the BOSS's skills couldn't cause damage to the booster.

"It's a pity that PK can't explode equipment. "This is the only thing that Shi Yuzhu feels uncomfortable about, and the rest of the game content makes him feel perfect.
