Chapter 232: Cucumber Dream

When he saw the traditional prompt on the screen, "Welcome to use the tip of the interactive entertainment products provided by Dabao Sword Digital Interactive Entertainment Company", Zhao Xilin's jaw almost dropped, turned to look at Lin Chen, who was operating the computer next to him, and said in surprise: "Your big sword company suddenly found out with a conscience that it is no longer blocking mainland IP?"

"No, no, no, we have never taken the initiative to block mainland IP. Lin Chen shook his left hand.

"Yes, yes, you didn't take the initiative to block the IP, but you hit the wall and begged for the seal yourself, which is just making people speechless. ”

"Letting the Great Wall do this not only reduces our investment in the anti-DDoS firewall in the computer room, saves a lot of money, but also gives us the opportunity to walk with the giants. It is said on the Internet that some people call all the blocked websites 'Great Wall Selection', saying that these websites tell the truth and tell the truth, and are not afraid of rape, the light of freedom, Balabala or something. Wouldn't it be nice if we could also blend in with the legendary 'Great Wall Selection' and be famous and save money at the same time?"

"Do you really believe that there are media in this world that tell the truth, tell the truth, and are not afraid of violence?" Zhao Xilin squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Chen.

"I believe that most of the media in the world say that what they say is true, but only a part of the truth, and the opinions they say are also true, and they really want us to think that. The highest level of lying is to organize the word order and tone reasonably, so that you can make up the so-called 'truth' in your own brain. Although some people have long said that 'some facts are not facts,' but looking at the whole world, which media in the world does not speak only part of the truth? The media will never see the truth, because the word truth has a subjective tendency, and the media practitioners, controllers, and viewers are all human beings, and they also have their own subjective tendencies, and different people see different truths for the same event or even the same report. ”

"Yohe, I've only been drinking capitalist water for a few days, so I don't believe that our simulcast and daily newspapers have the truth?"

As a result, when the Ministry of Land and Resources announced the number of reserves, there were only more than 400 million remaining, and there were less than 100 million tons left economically recoverable. ”

"It was deliberately done by PetroChina in order to return to the A-share market, and they were looking for their own death, and now the sharp drop in stock prices is already a lesson. What's going on here? They don't know about oil exploration. ”

"Yes, reporters don't understand oil exploration, reporters don't understand barbecue raw materials, and there are many things that reporters don't understand! ”

"Hey, you're discriminating against liberal arts. ”

"It's like you're not a science student. Lin Chen glanced at Zhao Xilin.

"We are studying mechanical and electronic engineering, we have a bachelor's degree in engineering, and we are proper engineering monks, and only those who are really engaged in research are science students. ”

"Mmmmmmmmmm What a wonderful holiday for me!"

"Leave your vacation alone. Lao Lin, "Seeing that the game was updated with difficulty and began to enter the game, Zhao Xilin smiled obscenely and asked, "Do you have those **** DLCs installed on this machine?"

"Yes. Attacking people and Qin Keqing, some of the others are still developing, and some I don't like it. Okay, okay! Wipe the corners of your mouth a little, saliva is about to spill on my keyboard. ”

"Can you play?"

"No, you can't. Lin Chen shook his head, "I didn't bring a big sword with me when I came back this time, there is no device connection, and the game will not have a special plot." ”

"Alas!" Zhao Xilin suddenly sighed, he naturally understood what the big sword meant and what the special plot was.

"I'm going to go to the swimming competition. ”

"Go, go, you silver stick!" Lin Chen shook his head and refocused his gaze on the laptop screen in front of him.

This summer, Lin Chen and Zhao Xilin finally came to the intersection of the legendary phoenix flowers.

After graduation, Zhao Xilin stayed on Ludao. is enjoying the "last summer vacation of his life", saying that he wants to watch the live broadcast of the Olympics at home, but his good friend Lin Chen has already joined a Hong Kong Island company with a rather strange name.

This so-called Hong Kong Island Big Sword Mutual Entertainment Company is actually a smart Chengren toy project that Lin Chen applied to create in the Bee Flower Hunting Program. With the technical and financial support of Bee Technology, the project progressed quickly, and the company was officially registered last month. The new company was registered on Hong Kong Island due to legal problems, and the majority shareholder, FutureisbeautyCoLtd, is a leather bag company registered in the British Bermuda Islands, and the owner of this confidential leather bag company is Ma Atletico Madrid, chairman of the Bee Group.

It is equivalent to saying that the bee sold the big sword project that Atletico was optimistic about and named himself, but Atletico was embarrassed to directly serve as the manager of Chengren Supplies Company, and finally cheapened Lin Chen, who had just graduated from college, and became the general manager and CEO of this also young big sword company.

Although the company is registered and headquartered on Hong Kong Island, the production of software and hardware is still in the mainland. Dabaojian Company acquired a manufacturer in the mainland that was originally OEM for Japan's Chengren toy manufacturer as its own production base, and the R&D team of the software part is also in China but has no official office location because of the fear of being investigated.

The young CEO Lin Chen also became a trapeze artist, running on both sides with the Hong Kong and Macao pass in his pocket.

Dabaojian Company is the first in the world, no longer the Japanese comic game will be the role and props of the image of the license to Chengren toy manufacturers of the cross-industry cooperation, but truly realize the combination of Chengren game and Chengren toys, and learn from the traditional culture of the motherland, dig deep into the essence of the four masterpieces, launched "Cucumber Dream of Red Mansions", a 3D Chengren game that is very evil when you hear the name.

On the one hand, the name is because cucumber is a very important prop in the game, and on the other hand, it is also because at that time, there was a wave of people on the Internet who complained about the makeup photos of the new Dream of Red Mansions, thinking that Dream of Red Mansions had become a trend of cucumber dreams. Dabaojian Company obviously inherited the habit of Bee Technology that has always been good at taking advantage of the trend, and simply renamed the Dream of Red Mansions Chengren version under development and immediately launched it to the market.

When they do this, they really disgust the Dream of Red Mansions crew that is still in the mainland with high-profile auditions. However, Hong Kong Island has freedom of publishing, Cucumber Dream Games is published in strict accordance with Chengren Game standards, and uses a strict online identity verification mechanism, and their opposition will not change anything if it is completely legal and compliant. Besides, Chengren's version of Dream of Red Mansions has already been done, and many of the plot inspirations in Cucumber Dream are based on similar works by others.

On the contrary, it was the mainland netizens who came to visit with a big wave of admiration, which brought some trouble to the big sword company. On the one hand, the surging traffic almost blew up the server of Cucumber Dream, and on the other hand, because Cucumber Dream implements an online verification mechanism similar to the stand-alone version of "Daming", requiring users to provide a Hong Kong Island ID number to confirm their age, which makes many netizens search for Hong Kong Island ID number on the Internet, which leads to a lot of number theft problems.

Different from the clear structure of the 18-digit Mainland ID card number, which has six provinces, cities and counties, eight digits of the date of birth, a three-digit sequence number, and a check code, the Hong Kong Island ID card has a special area on it to display the date of birth of the cardholder, so the ID card number does not contain the date of birth, and consists of one or two English letters and six-digit codes representing the year of birth.

Of course, no matter whether the structure is simple or complex, the corresponding ID number generator software can be found on the Internet, so simply checking the ID number can only restrict the restriction of "good children", whether it is the anti-addiction of online games implemented in the mainland for a year, or the juvenile restrictions of the big sword cucumber dream, if you have the intention to circumvent it, you can easily bypass it. What really annoys Dabaojian Company is that these onlookers are all here to play soy sauce, and they don't give money just to watch.

Although the Great Sword project became independent and became a Hong Kong Island company, the connection between them and bees is still very close, "Cucumber Dream of Red Mansions" is the engine and system of the stand-alone version of "Daming", and even many scene animal and plant character resources are slightly changed and used, and the charging method of this game is also the same as the latter's ontology free plus DLC charges.

Although the name of this game is vulgar, the content is not vulgar at all, but exquisite, beautiful, beautiful and romantic, it is a love development game with relatively healthy content, and it adheres to the spirit of the original work of Red Mansions, insists on one-to-one free love, and resists opening more harems. As a result, a large number of netizens poured in, but they found that there was not much "meat" on the surface, and it would be hellish that someone would pay for it.

At one time, the official forum of Cucumber Dream was left by netizens all over the world, "The title party can't die well!", "It's too to chase one, beg for a harem! Even if you drive a good boat, the ending will be recognized by the firewood knife!" These or cursed or complaining messages were filled with screens. However, for these users who can't bring the company's income, Big Sword naturally selectively receives their messages, program bug feedback, plot picking, etc., and basically listens to small suggestions and small improvements if they are easy to implement, and they ignore all the opinions and suggestions that have been drastically invested in other changes.

In fact, these anxious netizens don't know that the free download cucumber dream version they see is the so-called "net book" and does not contain any **** content. The real Chengren content all exists in the form of DLC, and the way these DLCs are downloaded is also rather bizarre, they are bound to the Chengren toys sold on Hong Kong Island in the early days of the Great Sword Company.

Although these toys are produced in the mainland, they are not sold on the mainland because they can be sold at a higher price on Hong Kong Island. Moreover, the Hong Kong dollar is also regarded as foreign capital, although with the country's foreign exchange reserves have increased significantly, those who have more money have to use it to buy U.S. Treasury bonds, but it is still a more fashionable and affordable choice to earn foreign exchange through exports.

The unscrupulous profiteer Dabaojian Company plans to give every popular character in Dream of Red Mansions, regardless of gender, to launch designated smart Chengren toys one after another, from portable flashlight-type airplane tubes and electric fingers, to luxury inflatable dolls containing artificial artificial bones that can be posed in various poses, and strive to achieve a full range of high, medium and low-end coverage. After the user buys the smart toy of the corresponding character, after the game software recognizes it when it is connected to the computer, the game client will automatically open the download of the corresponding DLC, that is, the fruit body and sound patch of the corresponding character, and make the character participate in the H plot.

Although the game client is also huge, there is a P2P fusion download provided by the bee BM download tool, even mainland users can successfully download, but DLC is not. These patches contain a large number of high-definition textures and sound files that can see the pores and hairs, and the volume is also huge, and because of the discord of content, the big sword company does not provide DLC content for public download on the network, and it can only be downloaded through the activation code bound on the corresponding hardware. Local users in Hong Kong and Macao can obtain collaborative acceleration bandwidth through the local bee colony acceleration system, which does not occupy much of the company's bandwidth, but it is more troublesome in the mainland.

Occasionally, mainland users buy smart toys from other channels to download DLC online, but because there is no relationship with other users around, the load of DLC is not diverted and is borne by the official server, which significantly slows down the speed of the official DLC download server.

Therefore, it didn't take long for Dabaojian Company to take the initiative to ban the access request of the mainland IP, and the way they banned the IP was very obscene, not because the company banned the access of the mainland IP on its own server, but "looking for its own death" and took the initiative to tease the Great Wall Network and actively seek to block it. The game launcher will first try to open the addresses of multiple long-term walled websites such as BBC, the New York Times, etc., when the user clicks to start the game and log in to the server, and only after getting the latest news content of these websites will the game client really start to connect to the Big Sword account server.

And their behavior of looking for death has a very good effect, and before netizens can figure out how to bypass the detection mechanism through local deception, the official website of Dabaojian has also been walled. As for why the big sword is also blocked by VPN, it is because the cucumber dream game eats too much traffic, and whether it is a free or paid VPN, it is unbearable. After all, they mainly provide scientific Internet access services for web pages and games, and the support for climbing the wall to watch videos and climb the wall to download is much smaller.

This kind of "active" way of shielding the mainland IP by the Great Wall Network has greatly reduced the operating costs of Dabaojian Company, and in the short term, they are happy to ignore the mainland market by focusing on the overseas market.

For the few users who bought their smart toys, Lin Chen could only bow and apologize on behalf of the big sword company and expressed regret, after all, the boxes of these toys have written on the corresponding interactive games are only available in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

However, in the past few days, the Internet has suddenly been opened, it is said that because a large number of crooked nuts came to China during the Olympic Games, in order to ensure the consistency of the Internet experience of the 2008 Olympic Games and other Olympic Games, a large number of overseas websites were temporarily lifted. As a result, the Great Wall Network, which had been "conscientious" to intercept mainland netizens, suddenly went on strike, catching the Dabaojian Company by surprise.

Lin Chen was on vacation at home and Zhao Xilin, drinking beer and eating fried chicken, watching the fit divers on the screen jump gracefully, spin gracefully in the air, and then press the splash into the water, but unexpectedly received an emergency contact from the company, and had to open the laptop to remotely connect to the company's headquarters to study countermeasures.

After a while, Zhao Xilin, who saw the end of the live broadcast of the game, stood up from the front of the TV again, walked up to Lin Chen and asked, "How is it?"

"Fortunately, the situation is not as bad as we thought, maybe everyone is busy watching the live broadcast of the Olympics, and the server load is within the normal range. ”

"That's because everyone has recognized the true face of your broken game, which is actually a reskinned version of "Da Ming", or shrunk! Instead of climbing the wall and being discriminated against in the past, it is better to play free Da Ming!"

Cucumber Dream uses the engine of the stand-alone version of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to the main scenes of the game in addition to the Jinling Jiafu Grand View Garden built with reference to the BJ Grand View Garden Scenic Area, other scenes such as the gourd monk judging the official office of the gourd case, such as the ferry head of the boat in the snow and the Lingyi all use a lot of ready-made art resources in the Ming Dynasty, in a sense, this game can indeed be regarded as a skin-changing version of the Ming Dynasty.

But this is only the opinion of some people, and Lin Chen and they do not agree with this statement. After all, although there is a ready-made foundation for the stand-alone version of the Ming Dynasty, the game department of their Dabaojian Company has still made a lot of efforts, such as collecting and sorting out character information, and designing a more trendy character than the 87 version of Dream of Red Mansions, but it took them a lot of energy to not have as many cucumber slices as the New Dream of Red Mansions. It is also fortunate that Red Studies has been lively for one or two hundred years, and the Dream of Red Mansions series has changed works one after another, which has enabled them to make initial results in a few months.

Of course, no matter how fast they are, it is impossible to make such a large-scale game in a few months, although the scene of Cucumber Dream is not large, but there are many characters and complex plots. At the beginning, in order to seize the favorable opportunity for the whole people to complain about the Dream of Red Mansions and turn it into a cucumber patch, they preemptively launched an incomplete version of Cucumber Dream, and now Lin Chen and they are still making up classes, and they are successively launching new expansion films and patches, on the one hand, increasing the plot and characters, on the other hand, through the replacement of art resources and sound music resources, to make Cucumber Dream more "red", and remove the traces of the stand-alone version of "Daming" that are too obvious. As for the complete removal, it is impossible.,After all, the background of the two games is the same.,Both are the last years of the Ming Dynasty.,The natural environment, social customs, character clothing, and so on are all common.。

"If you play Da Ming, you won't have such a close distance between the characters, and you won't have the opportunity to interact with NPCs intimately!" Lin Chen raised his eyebrows and stretched out his hand to point to the box on the cabinet on the side.

"During the Olympics, Dream Walker focused on the ladder system, and when the Olympics are over, it's time for us to play. ”

"Cao noisy groove Cao groove rough!" Zhao Xilin couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, "Why didn't you say it earlier?" When I went to the space station Internet café to try out Dream Walker, I felt that I had a close interaction with NPCs, and I felt very good when I saw them smiling, I didn't expect you to really do it!"

"Well, it's pretty much done. Lin Chen squinted, "Now the main thing is to reduce costs, and it will be listed next year." For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
