Chapter 195: StarCraft The Big Movie
Mohami understands that the emergence of Qin Shi Huang's art production tools means that there is an unprecedented and powerful competitor in the game production and film and television special effects industries.
The professional art resource development tools on the market, such as 3DMax, ZBrush, Photoshop, etc., will all be greatly impacted.
In fact, Shensi Group has monopolized the future high-end art production tool industry with this unimaginable technological innovation.
If Jiang Yuan is reluctant to publicly release this production tool in order to obtain high profits, so that tool developers such as 3DMax can survive for a while, it is even worse for those top film special effects production companies.
For example, Industrial Light & Magic, which produced "Transformers" and "Star Wars", Weta Digital, which produced "Avatar" and "The Lord of the Rings", and the digital field that produced Titanic and X-Men, they will suddenly find that the basic art development tools they use are completely outdated.
It is true that these companies have accumulated a lot of advanced display technology in the course of decades of development, but when the production speed of basic models and special effects is much slower than that of Shensi Group, they are not competitive at all.
More than an hour later, Mohami left the coffee shop with a serious expression, and the reporters who had been squatting in Jiangyuan stepped forward to take pictures and ask questions, Mohami smiled and refused all requests for interviews, and left in a hurry by car.
Lin Ruqing still didn't understand, he didn't have a deep understanding of this industry, and asked curiously:
"Mr. Jiang, does this art development tool really have such a big effect? Blizzard is willing to give shares or copyrights in exchange for the right to use them?"
Jiang Yuan looked at Mohami's departing vehicle and explained with a smile:
"Let's give you an example. If Qin Shi Huang's art production tools are used to develop the game, in the same time, the artists can produce dozens or hundreds of times the amount of resources, which will have an unparalleled impact on players. For example, the average game company can launch 10 sets of costumes every month, while the game company that uses Qin Shi Huang's art production tools has more than a dozen new costumes every day. How else is this played?"
Lin Ruqing understood at this time, and began to sympathize with this group of art tool developers and special effects production companies who were lying on the gun.
......
......
Seven days later, Qian Bao finally got all the new materials, and Jiang Yuan rushed back to Qianwan City with the formula and material samples, completely ending his Spring Festival vacation.
At the same time, Blizzard CEO Mike Mohami has been authorized by the board of directors to personally arrive in Qianwan City with the legal and business negotiation team, and Jiang Yuan negotiated with Li Qingyu and Zhang Ming.
News of Mohami's multiple meetings with Jiang Yuan was reported by the media.
The cyber disaster, which has cooperated a lot with Blizzard, is even more jealous and posted in "Cyber Disaster News":
"Jiang Yuan has met with Blizzard CEO Mohami many times recently, and pondered what the group wants?"
Netizens speculated.
"Could it be that Shensi Group is going to take over the network disaster and act as Blizzard's domestic agent? No wonder the "Internet Disaster News" is yin and yang. ”
"I think the two are talking about a brain-controlled version of the game, and I'm excited to think about it!"
"The brain-controlled version of StarCraft? As long as you learn how to operate, the rest is A!"
"Hahaha! The operation basically depends on A, and the consciousness basically depends on blowing. Reconnaissance is basically based on guesswork, and the battle is dark. ”
"In the brain-controlled version of StarCraft, I will lose the last fig leaf, 'I am still conscious, but my hand is crippled', and losing in the future can only mean that I am brain dead!"
"RTS is outdated! This genre is very unfriendly to new players, and you can only feel humiliated in the face of players who are a rank above you!I think it could be a new sequel to the Warcraft or Dark series. ”
Other game developers looked at the news and were a little scratchy.
Why work with Shensi Group?
What the hell is Blizzard crazy about?
There's no need.,Wouldn't it be good to wait for DT1 to come out and develop a game based on it directly?
Three days later, Li Qingyu, CEO of Shensi Group, and Mohami, CEO of Blizzard, held a joint press conference.
After Li Qingyu and Mohami gave in, she walked to the microphone and said:
"Shensi Entertainment, a subsidiary of Shensi Group, will establish an art technology development department, and the first task of the department is to continue to improve Chairman Jiang Yuan's new work 'Qin Shi Huang Art Production Tools'. ”
"In addition, after three days of friendly talks, we have reached a preliminary cooperation intention with Blizzard Entertainment, and the art technology development department will work together with Blizzard to develop the massively multiplayer online game "StarCraft" and "StarCraft" movie!"
"Shensi Group will use the right to use the 'Qin Shi Huang Art Production Tools' in exchange for 20% of the copyright of these two works!"
"At the same time, Shensi Group will soon release a promotional video for Qin Shi Huang's art production tools, and we sincerely welcome all game developers, film and television production companies and other visual development industry cooperation and negotiations. ”
As soon as Li Qingyu said it, the audience was in an uproar, and the reporters were simply crazy:
"May I ask Mr. Mohami, when is "Interstellar World" expected to be launched?"
"StarCraft movie, when will filming start?"
"What kind of tool is the 'Qin Shi Huang Art Production Tool'?"
......
The news of the press conference instantly detonated a large number of player group forums.
Blizzard is launching a new game, the massively multiplayer online game Star World.
This is Blizzard's second MMORPG after World of Warcraft, and it has ignited a fire in the hearts of a large number of players!
"Star World" is Blizzard's second attempt after the poor reputation of the "Warcraft" movie, and if it fails this time, it is estimated that Blizzard will no longer have the idea of adapting the movie for many years.
"What the hell is the interstellar world? What about my Diablo 4? What about my Watch 2?"
"Is my queen finally going to be on the screen?
"Hehe, then you probably have to wait. I'm in my third year of high school this year, and with the speed at which I made Big Blizzard, you might not be able to play Star World the year I graduated from college. ”
"The sacred F2A links each and every one of us!"
"Make CG with your heart and play with your feet. Blizzard finally can't control his desolate power!"
"Hehe, Shensi Group has finally begun to extend its tentacles to the game and film and television circles, according to the convention, there will be an industry reshuffle within three months, I wish all people in the industry good luck -- a sad former director of a lithium battery factory. ”
"Poof! What you said upstairs, I'm speechless! Good luck, EA!"
"Good luck, ILM!"
"Good luck, R-star!"
The game developers and film and television special effects production companies that were ridiculed by netizens looked confused.
Why did Jiang Yuan run into our business?
They turned their attention to the news, and soon discovered the crux of the matter: Qin Shi Huang's art production tools.
Everything seems to revolve around this tool.
What kind of tool is this, so much so that Blizzard is willing to give even the most important copyright exchange...... Usufruct?
And after the failure of "Titan" last time, Blizzard in the past few years has a feeling of not talking about MMORPG, who gave Blizzard the courage to dare to fight with the super IP of "StarCraft"?
When the outside world was suspicious, a new page on the website of Shensi Group completely hyped the popularity of Shensi Group to the top.
"Qin Shi Huang Art Maker (hereinafter referred to as QSH) supports two cooperation modes:"
"Business cooperation model: using QSH to develop games, film and television and other visual works, Shensi Group will obtain 5%-30% of the copyright of the film or a certain amount of equity of the development company, and the specific details of the cooperative enterprise can be negotiated. ”
"Learning mode: Use QSH to develop games, films and other visual works, if not used to obtain commercial benefits or obtain commercial benefits of less than 100,000 yuan, you can use it for free. ”
Game developers and film and television production companies were dumbfounded, sneering at the lion of Shensi Group, attacking the arrogance of Shensi Group in major media, and saying "I am Light and Magic/R Star/Ubisoft/Capcom/Sony....... Even if you starve to death, you won't use your qsh!"
What's even more exciting is that Shensi Group has finally launched the first promotional video of DT1!
