Chapter 244: Games and Chips
The game department of the film and television company is still nested in the original cultural building, and as soon as Li Qingyuan's tall and sturdy figure appeared in the office of the game company, he was looked at by Zhang Yang. Vertices
"Brother Li!" Zhang Yang shouted loudly and hurriedly greeted him.
Raising his eyes at a glance, Zhang Yang looked so thin and thin, and after a careful inspection, Li Qingyuan still found that he was not without changes, at least he was much more mature, and there was an extra circle of fat on his stomach.
"Brother Li, I haven't been to the company for so long, I thought you forgot about me. Zhang Yang clenched his fist and hammered his pectoral muscles.
"I'm giving you full freedom, but now it seems that the freedom is too much, and after so long, I haven't done anything, I'm so disappointed in you!" Li Qingyuan said with a straight face and pretending to be angry.
Zhang Yang glanced at Chen Han beside him, "Hehe" laughed dryly, and said, "Brother Li, there are outsiders who are saving me some face." ”
"Fuck off, there's no outsider here. Li Qingyuan pulled Chen Han, pushed him in front of Zhang Yang, and continued: "This is my little Chen Han, who is a senior game fan, he heard that you didn't even have a fart, and I want to give you some advice." ”
"Oh, welcome, please Brother Chen give my little brother some guidance. Zhang Yangyi grasped Chen Han's hand.
"Hey, big Malaysia, you see that I also have a day to be a brother!" Chen Han threw a wink at him, then hooked his hand around Zhang Yang's shoulder, and replied: "Brother Zhang, don't dare to be a guide, it's okay to give some advice, hahaha!"
While Chen Han and Zhang Yang were talking, Li Qingyuan looked at the office layout of the entire game department, and saw that the walls were covered with huge portraits of various Chinese painting styles, and it seemed that Zhang Yang, this kid, was ready to follow the Chinese style.
Noticing that Li Qingyuan was looking at the portraits, Zhang Yang introduced: "These portraits are all portraits of characters in the game, not bad!"
"Not bad, where did the theme of the game come from?" asked Li Qingyuan.
"The history of the Five Emperors, the Book of Mountains and Seas, the Yellow Emperor of Liezi, the Book of Yi Zhou, etc., the story revolves around the war between tribes in ancient China, and I am going to divide them into two forces to fight each other, just like the tribes and alliances in the World of Warcraft. Zhang Yang introduced.
Li Qingyuan nodded and praised: "This theme is good, it can have a lot of imagination, and it can give the majority of players a chance to get acquainted with Chinese history." ”
"That is, in order to make this game, I specially invited a lot of experts and professors who study history to guide, and I really learned a lot of Chinese history. Zhang Yang replied proudly.
"China has a long history of 5,000 years, and there are many themes that can be intercepted, what are you proud of kid, where are you finding the core problem of the game?"
"Core gameplay!, more specifically, what kind of game it is. ”
"And what kind of game did you develop?"
"It's the age of the Internet, of course, online games, and in a more technical way, MMORPGs!"
Li Qingyuan rolled his eyes and struck: "Professional fart, everyone on the earth knows it!"
"How can it, earthlings know RPGs, but they don't know how difficult it is to make a massively multiplayer online role-playing game, and a game engine tossed me to death. ”
"Hey!
What did you say in the dormitory back then, but now you know how difficult it is!"
"Brother Li, don't hit me, let it go with the wind. Zhang Yang had a bitter face, his expression full of frustration.
"That's not good, dreams are needed, you have to have self-confidence, what's the point of this little difficulty, I'm still waiting to brag about the game you developed." ”
"It's not that I don't give Brother Li a chance to brag about you, last year's World of Warcraft produced by Blizzard hit me badly, compared with other people's 3D game engines, I am a scumbag who can't even do well with 2.5D game engines. ”
Li Qingyuan reached out and touched Zhang Yang's forehead, and said in a hopeless tone: "I thought you had a fever and talked nonsense, but I didn't expect you to be a dead eye, why do you have to develop your own engine? Don't you know that Blizzard's engine was bought?"
"But I just want to develop a completely independent game, why can a foreigner develop such a powerful engine, but not a domestic one!"
"Your heart is commendable, but your strength is not enough, if I don't come today, do you still have to go all the way to the dark?"
"Although I will be sorry for you, Brother Li, I still think that this team should be built, even if it can't be a top-level game engine, at least it has trained talents and accumulated experience. Zhang Yang held his head high, staring at him without avoidance, pursed his lips with a stubborn expression.
At this time, Zhang Yang coincided with the middle-aged down-to-earth man in his memory, and if he didn't succeed, he would become a benevolent? The world is touting a Ma Yun's perseverance but forgetting that there are countless Zhang Yang's loneliness and hardships, persistence is sometimes not necessarily a good thing, at least in his previous life, he was so decadent and disappeared from everyone.
"Well, you have a point, I'm also a person who can stand up to failure. Call me brother at you, I should also support you, you are busy first, I will give you the whole information, and provide some help for you to develop the engine!"
"Really?" said Zhang Yangxi.
"Don't forget, the game company spends my money, what benefit can I get from lying to you!"
"Okay, okay, then I'll wait for your good news, Brother Li!" a smile crawled all over Zhangyang's red face.
"Man, if you want to give advice, stay here, I'll go through some information first. Li Qingyuan raised his chin and said.
"Slow you go, I won't send it far, ha!" Chen Han picked Zhang Yang's shoulder, threw him the back of his head and walked towards the design department.
In Li Qingyuan's thoughts, it is trivial to ask Yanxing to come up with a complete game engine, but Zhang Yang is right, talent training is the key, and no matter how powerful artificial intelligence is, it cannot surpass human creativity.
Coming to the base, Li Qingyuan asked Yanxing for information on the development of a 3D engine.
"Brother Li, the earth's current engine is too backward, the helium people have long entered the holographic engine era, I will search for some information for you on the earth network!"
"It's okay to give me the game engine stuff on the planet, you can stretch it out a little bit and give the developers some guidance to speed up their development. ”
"It's so easy, the materials are ready, I'll send them to the game development team right now. ”
Yanxing's computing power was impressive, but Li Qingyuan couldn't let it scare Zhang Yang and them, and hurriedly replied: "Don't rush to pass it on to them first, you."
This will scare them, you send the information to Yeyue first, and I will delay it for a few days. ”
"Okay, Brother Li!"
"Xiaoxing, the communication company of the Helium Star Group has been established, and our satellites will soon be launched into the sky, and as the main project of the group's future profitability, the smartphone should also be prepared. Just like a human computer system, a smartphone needs a unique operating system, can you develop a closed intelligent operating system?"
"Brother Li, such a system is actually not much different from the control system of low-level robots, I only need to modify the control system slightly to use it, but for the mobile phone hardware that the earth currently has, this system is too powerful. ”
"Then you first simulate the most advanced technology on the earth, make a mobile phone and install the operating system for testing, try to simplify its functions, and wait until the hardware level is improved and slowly upgraded. ”
"Then I will assemble the mobile phone according to the R&D progress of the chip company, so that as long as the mobile phone of the Helium Star Group is successfully developed, it can be used. ”
"That's for the best. ”
"Based on the shortcomings of the earth's existing x86 chip architecture, Xiaoxing believes that the chips of the Helium Star Group should develop a new generation of chip architecture, I wonder if Brother Li has any plans in this regard?"
Li Qingyuan snapped his fingers and said, "Xiaoxing, you have said so, there must be a belly case, come and tell Brother Li about it." ”
"With the more and more developed earth news, the conversion efficiency is getting higher and higher, the work instructions of electronic chips are getting longer and longer, the difficulty of decoding is getting bigger and bigger, register renaming, huge buffers, out-of-order execution, branch prediction, x86 instruction conversion, etc., all make the chip area of the CPU larger and larger, limited by the bottleneck of today's earth's technological development, the miniaturization of integrated circuits is becoming more and more difficult, and the improvement of lithography process is becoming more and more difficult. In this case, if a new chip architecture is used to reduce the drawbacks of the x86 architecture, it will have a huge impact on the chip industry, and the chip industry of Helium Star Group will break Intel's technology monopoly. ”
"So, you have this whole new architecture, right?"
"Not exactly, I have already added the guiding information of the new architecture to the technical data of the chip team, as long as Brother Li adds fire to them, the new chip architecture will be born smoothly. ”
"Of course, I am very happy that the whole architecture can be developed smoothly, and now I just want to know if this architecture is compatible with the x86 architecture, and if it is not, everything is in vain. ”
"Could it be that Brother Li has no confidence in Xiaoxing so much?" said Yanxing aggrievedly.
"Of course not!" Li Qingyuan patted the top of Yanxing's metal egg and continued, "I just want to make sure nothing goes wrong. ”
"Of course, it is foolproof, but Xiaoxing is worried that the function is too powerful, and the helium star group will be stabbed by someone at that time. ”
"If you disturb the good things of the US imperialists, of course you will be stabbed, I have been mentally prepared for this, you don't need to worry about this, it's a big deal to do it openly. ”
Li Qingyuan said it easily, but in fact, he had already moved in his heart, and if he wanted to fight with the US imperialists, how could it be as easy as he said, wasn't "Zhongxing" lying down in his previous life!
"Okay, Xiaoxing immediately transmitted the follow-up information to Sister Yeyue's computer. ”
"That's right, what are you afraid of with the Helium Star Group!"
