On the outskirts of Beijing, in Gao Qiao's studio, the creation of the first episode of "Wanyou King" has ended. Li Er is looking through the original manuscript of "The King of Ten Thousand Travels".

Gao Qiao sat on the chair and felt the effect dots behind him that indicated tension. Sweat broke out in his clenched hands, he hadn't been so nervous in a long time.

What kind of evaluation will editor Li give? His heart was pounding.

Li Er silently kept turning the manuscript paper back, with little expression on his face. This made Gao Qiao more and more nervous.

"Well, perfect. The effect is exactly the same as what I had in mind, and the effect of the monster card is even better than I imagined! There is still one day before the deadline, and Mr. Gao has completed such a high-quality manuscript, which is really worthy of Mr. Gao!" Li Er put down the original manuscript and said.

Gao Qiao breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and the edges of his palms were stained with ink stains from years of drawing comics.

"Thanks to the helpers. But to be honest, I'm a little worried.,Most of the content of the first episode is foreshadowing.,The really wonderful plot won't appear until the second and third episodes.,What if this episode is published.,What if you can't attract readers.。 Gao Qiao said with some concern.

"There's no way around it, I'm going to have to spend some time explaining what the game is all about. However, children are generally attracted by monsters with strange appearances and can develop, so the ranking should also rise. Lear said.

"If only that were the case. Gao Qiao nodded, and suddenly he thought of something, "By the way, I actually encountered a little problem in the creation process of the second episode." ”

"Well, what's the problem?"

"We originally designed the opponent to beat Wanyou to the limit, and then Wanyou used a method to turn the tables, right? But no matter what I think, I can't think of how Wanyou turned the tables!"

"But, haven't you already submitted the storyboard for the second episode, and it's a pretty good game design. Li Er looked at the storyboard in his hand suspiciously and said.

"That's because I found a solution later. ”

"How?"

"I thought about it for a while, and I thought the problem was that I had only played the game with you and myself, so my mind was fixed. Gao Qiao clicked on the cards on the original.

"So I found a couple of people and asked them to help me play the game. That might inspire me with their games. I took out the 100 cards I had completed and gave them to others to try out, and sure enough, I found a lot of tricks that I didn't realize when I was playing. Gao Qiao said.

"Oh, that's a good idea. But who did you ask to test it?"

"Do you remember that letter from a reader? It was tested at the manga café she opened. I printed hundreds of cards to my boss and asked her to help me find board game enthusiasts to test. Accordingly, they should send me a record of the process of playing. ”

"It feels like an in-house test at a game company. ”

"The inspiration came from the game company I was working for. By the way, I won't cause you any trouble if I do this. ”

"No, it won't. Li Er waved his hand and said, "At most, I will leak some of the game content of the next episode, and it will not involve the key plot content." In fact, it is equivalent to giving you propaganda in disguise. ”

“…… As for copyright disputes, the copyright of Yanshen Games is originally yours, and the printing volume is not large. To put it mildly, "Wanyou King" is about to be cut in half, and the company doesn't care about the copyright around it at all. Lear told the truth.

"Ah, that truth sounds so heart-wrenching. ”

"It's a pity that a comic coffee can't affect the overall situation. Li Er shook his head, he took the storyboard, turned one of the pages, pointed to the horizontal grid at the bottom and said: "Let's discuss the parts to be revised in the second and third words, first of all, this storyboard ......"

…………

In a manga café near a junior high school in Shangjing.

Two college students in their twenties are playing a card game of Wanyou King, and there are already many people standing next to them.

They have only just started playing, and they have not yet formed a complete idea of how to combine cards. But the two are at a similar level, and they also play back and forth, and they are evenly divided.

Since the Dungeons & Dragons trend swept the world in the last century, board games have taken root in China. In the era when there were no computers and no televisions, board games became the best pastime for the wealthy Chinese people at that time.

At that time, the people who could play board games were the elite, such as college students or children from some relatively wealthy families, who grew up to become advocates of board games.

Even in the modern era of smartphones and the Internet, board games are still part of the diversified entertainment methods in China. However, although board games are popular, there are only a few classic games, and most of them are produced by foreign companies. Many board game lovers hope that Huaxia can come up with a classic board game of its own.

There is a board game forum, and whenever a domestic company releases a new board game, there will be senior players who will send out reviews. The high-scoring board game inside will attract many people to buy it.

Recently, there was an informal company board game on the forum, which seems to be still in beta and can only be played in a manga café. There are hardcore board game enthusiasts who went to play a few games and came back and gave a very high evaluation on the forum.

And after a few people praised the gameplay and balance of the cards, many enthusiasts living in Shangjing ran to try the game. Unexpectedly, the people who played it were full of praise, and at once more than 30 pages of tall buildings were stacked in the forum, and some people wrote analytical comments on each card.

The adult games also attracted students from the nearby junior high school. And this group of bear children took advantage of the proximity to the water to get the moon first, and occupied a place as soon as school ended, so that a few board game enthusiasts could only wait for the bear children to come over to play when they went to school.

"Dark Wizard, direct attack!"

"Don't think, the powerlessness to attack!"

"Ah, I almost won! ”

One of the college students scratched his head and said unwillingly.

"You should have broken his fold with a whirlwind before attacking. Said a teenager who looked like a junior high school student, carrying a backpack behind him.

"That's useless, the other deck is the Messenger of Peace, and if you activate it, the combat damage of this round will be zero!" said another onlooker.

"If you want me to say that you should summon Android 7 in the last turn, you can ignore the fold and attack directly. Although the Dark Wizard has a higher attack power, it has no special effects. ”

The chatter of the onlookers made the two players angry.

"Hey, keep talking, my hand is exposed!"

His opponent then said, "Don't talk about you, my hand is exposed!"

Duel monster cards this game is like a contagion. Anyone who has played it will almost always play it again as if they were addicted.

There are more and more people in the café, and the café, which was originally empty, is now like a subway during the rush hour, full of people, and they also use the method of issuing numbers to call customers in.

In order to reduce the number of people entering the store, the owner has started to take measures to charge for the game. But this can't reduce the large number of junior high school students, and I don't know where they get their pocket money, so they slapped the big red bills on the table one by one, saying: "The problems that can be solved with money are not problems." ”

Due to the limited number of cards, only five groups of people can play the game, so this kind of group onlookers has become the norm.

Sometimes it's even more fun to watch others play than you do, but there are still many people who want to be able to play the game at any time. The limited number of cards that can be printed also makes playing slots a stake.

"Boss, when will it be available! I can't play if I want to. ”

"Yes, yes, at least tell me how to buy it. The last time my classmates watched a video of me playing this, they kept asking me where I could buy it. ”

Xia Yu, the female boss with a ponytail, sweated profusely and held five or six cups of tea on the customer's table, and explained over and over again: "This is a new game that a friend put in our place to test, and it is not sold in the market." ”

"Ah...... How so. ”

"I said, why didn't I see it sold in the whole of Kyoto. ”

"Boss, you must notify me when your friend's game is on the market!"

Xia Yu wiped his sweat and said, "Okay, okay." ”

In the past few days, it has not been once or twice that I have been questioned like this. At first, she didn't expect that a game would make such a big change in the situation in the comics.

Players who have played once will have to play again even if they have to queue up behind a lot of people.

The business in their store has also become extremely good, and the people originally hired are too busy, and she has to be the boss himself.

She started out just to help her favorite manga artists test out the game, but she didn't expect to reap such a reward. This can be regarded as a good reward for good people.

Finally staying up to the time for proofing, Xia Yu sat down behind the empty counter, feeling sore all over his body. How long has it been since it opened?

She opened the box of game cards and routinely counted the number of cards, but she didn't expect to find a few hundred-dollar bills in the gap at the bottom of the box. She opened the boxes of the other groups, and sure enough, there was money inside. There are three or four hundred, more than a thousand, and the ones that are rolled up finely and stuck in the middle of plastic trays and boxes.

A few cards are missing. Among them, high-attack cards such as the blue-eyed white dragon and the true red-eyed black dragon were the most scourged, and a total of four cards were missing.

Although these cards are not for sale. But the cost of these cards is definitely less than a few dollars, and it's crazy that they actually put so much money in them.

Xia Yu received the money in a separate drawer, and there was already a lot of money in this drawer, all of which were earned by implementing fees for a while. She didn't plan to take the money, and when Teacher Gao came, she would transfer the money to him.

By the way, she had to call Mr. Gao to tell him about the popularity of the game, but she took out her phone and remembered that she didn't seem to have Mr. Gao's phone, and every time Mr. Gao came to the store to get the information about the game.

I can only wait for him to come over next time and then tell him, Xia Yu thought.
