When Zhang Xun arrived at the company, Sun Qi was already waiting.

They were joined by a few people from Eagle Fly's studio.

It looks a little solemn.

It was cold outside and warm inside, Zhang Xun took off his coat, sat down and said with a smile: "What's the problem?"

Wu Song was the first to speak: "It's a difficulty in game development. ”

Zhang Xun said curiously: "I don't know technology, what do you want to ask me? Besides, there shouldn't be many technical difficulties in strategic games, if there is, you can find what kind of talent you need, and if you can't do it, you can also outsource part of the work, and the price is not a problem." ”

Well, that's what he thinks when he gets rich.

Wu Song smiled bitterly when he heard this, it was naturally a good thing to meet such a boss who was willing to spend money, but he still shook his head and said: "This problem is not technical, but content." ”

"Let's be specific. Zhang Xun made a gesture and gestured.

Wu Song folded his hands, paused, and said: "It's about the content of decision-making, I did accumulate some experience in making mobile games before, but now to make this large-scale game according to your requirements, the demand for decision-making is very high, we need to design a lot of problems, and at the same time spend a lot of effort to do the results that different solutions will cause, which must also be logical, and the player's different decisions will lead to many kinds of follow-up reactions."

Of course, if it's just this, we can do it with hard work, and it takes a little more time, but, according to the content of your planner, we can do this in the primary part of the game, but the higher up, the greater the decision-making authority given to the player, especially when it comes to high-level players, the decision-making restrictions are already very small, and we need to make flexible adaptations, which we don't quite understand how to do, and at the same time, it is very difficult to make a technology that can give logical chain feedback on different decisions and even opinions, so this part is the biggest difficulty we are facing now。 ”

Wu Song's face was full of melancholy, probably without thinking, and after speaking, he looked at the big boss sitting on the sofa opposite, but found that he seemed to be distracted.

Zhang Xun was indeed distracted, because when he heard this, he finally understood the intention of the system to give him a calculation model.

Is it actually used to solve this problem?

"It's really empathetic. Zhang Xun figured this out and couldn't help laughing, but this smile made several people in the office look at each other without knowing why.

"Okay, I see what you mean...... Actually, I have been prepared for this problem for a long time, when I went abroad before, I once found someone to make a calculated data model, and I will send it to you in the evening, you do a test, see if it can be used, if you can, I will use it, if not, I will find a way. Zhang Xun had the bottom in his heart and started talking nonsense.

Anyway, these people can't explore the truth, a few words stabilize a few people, Zhang Xun came out and took the storage hardware directly in the company, and the moment he came into contact with the storage hardware, the system jumped out of the prompt:

[The storage carrier is detected, do you import the data model?]

Zhang Xun blinked and silently said "yes", and the next moment, he felt a tingling sensation appear on his fingertips, and then there was no movement, only showing the words "import completed".

He smiled and shook his head, for the sake of presence, he could only figure it out, leave, and send it over in the evening for them to test, and this test also takes time.

……

……

The prime minister has always been quite efficient.

When Zhang Xun came in again, he learned that his director was already in place.

The director's name is Steven, about forty years old, with gray hair, a slightly chubby body, and an inexplicable artistic demeanor.

However, the art here was not accepted by the aristocracy, and although Steven was considered wealthy, he was not of enough status, and he was even more nervous about entering the palace, even worse than the original Ruhr.

"Don't be nervous, Steven, you do understand what I want you to do, right?" Zhang Xun asked as calmly as he walked down from his throne.

"Your Majesty...... All I know is that you want to record the drama with that peculiar shadow stone, and it seems that you are intent on making a new play?" asked Steven cautiously, his grey eyes, which were quite old but still lit up with a strange simplicity.

"Almost, so to speak, but in terms of form, it is very different from traditional theater. Okay, let's not talk nonsense, let me tell you what kind of story we want to shoot first. ”

Zhang Xun leisurely took out the script copied by the people below, turned the first page and said: "Our play, temporarily called "The Battle of Gray Wind Town", is based on the historical events of the Westerners' invasion of Gray Wind Town on our border.

The main content of the story is to tell that a declining aristocratic young man in Grey Wind fell in love with a young girl, and met on a date in a beautiful twilight, but the beautiful scene was broken by the sudden Westside people, the Westside cavalry invaded into the town to burn and loot, a pair of young men and women hid in horror, the boy took the initiative to jump out to attract attention in order to lure away the Westers, but unfortunately, the girl who was hiding was killed, the boy was grief-stricken and wanted to kill himself, but was rescued by the Yingyang army that rushed to him, and was inspired by the heroic officer, if the army, pick up the sword to drive away the story of the invaders。

The plot of this film is not complicated, I am sure you can understand it well, but the question is how to show it in the form of a silent film.

You should know that since it was shot with a photo stone, then, the whole story has no sound, and the people in it can't convey the message with words, at most, there is only a soundtrack outside the venue. ”

When Steven heard this, he was stunned, because it was obviously different from what he had imagined.

Zhang Xun threw the script to him, and then smiled: "Okay, don't be in a daze, my director, let's have a good chat about this play." ”

It took most of the day for Steven's education to show initial results, Zhang Xun understood that it was useless to just say things with his mouth and let him listen, and he still needed practical operation if he wanted Steven to master the shooting method of silent films.

Fortunately, the first film is only, Zhang Xun's requirements are very low, and he only needs to be able to clearly express the content of the story.

As for the rest, it doesn't matter.

"Of course, the best filming location is to go to Greywind Town to shoot, but it is inconvenient to transport the photo stone there, just outside the royal capital, just find a nearby town to shoot, the photo stone first move a small model to the past, send a low-level magician to follow it, and let Steven and the whole crew explore the shooting first.

Don't tell him the cost of filming, so as not to cause psychological pressure, feel free to try boldly.

The actors who appeared in the Eagle Yang Army were served by those who were transferred, and then sent a team of the royal capital guards to assist in the filming, even if it was a group performance, as for the role of the townspeople, where to shoot, find people, and give more wages, it should not be a big problem. ”

Ordering this, Zhang Xun touched his chin and began to think about the last question, which was the heroine's question.

The male protagonist gave the prime minister's son, who will play the female protagonist?

The moment the thought came to him, he found Lancôme.

"Would you like to play the heroine?" Zhang Xun asked very seriously.

Lancôme was a little nervous, I didn't know why, I asked a few words, only to understand that I was going to film by myself, and I suddenly felt fresh, that is, I had always been a female housekeeper in the palace, and I couldn't help but feel lively, and I was secretly excited.

However, to Zhang Xun's surprise, after carefully understanding the role he was going to play, Lancôme was a little difficult and politely said that he was not very willing.

"Why?" Zhang Xun was surprised.

Lancôme glanced at the king a few times, and said slowly: "Although it is going to be filmed, it is fake, but I will play a lover with the prime minister's son, I ...... It's not appropriate, I'm just a maid after all. ”

Zhang Xun suddenly smiled and said: "What maid, you are the chief maid in the palace, if you are willing, one day I will find an important minister to give you the name of a daughter, won't you also become a nobleman?"

However, even if he said this, Lancôme still stubbornly disagreed, which made Zhang Xun a little helpless, and it could be seen that Lancôme was willing to act in a movie, but he was unwilling to be the heroine.

In the end, after thinking about it, I simply asked another more impressed maid, Wei Annie, this time it went well, Wei Annie was excited, and Zhang Xun also finalized the candidate.

"It's just, in this case, how can you make Lancôme a big star?" Zhang Xun fell into distress, and suddenly patted his head after thinking about it.

Since you don't have a suitable character, why not create one?

It happened that the original script lacked the king's role, Zhang Xun thought about it, and simply changed the later part of the script, and there was a plot of the palace decree, which was very short and would not affect the main plot.

"The most impressive thing about a movie isn't necessarily the main character. Thinking like this, it was decided, although I still can't figure out why Lancôme rejected the heroine role.

……

The filming of "The Battle of Grey Wind" has officially begun.

This did not attract much attention in the royal capital, not because the people were not interested in it, but because there were a lot of new things in the royal capital recently.

On the instructions of the king, the institute put the steam engine on public once, which caused another round of sensation.

The completion of the steam engine manufacturing plant has once again aroused widespread concern among the public.

With the continuous increase of factories, what many people do not notice is that Yingyang has slowly begun to transform from a monotonous kingdom of mining and ironmaking to manufacturing, and the finished products manufactured have in turn improved the original mining, reaching a very simple closed loop.

On the other hand, in addition to the production of steam engines, a large part of the new products have been produced due to the improvement of machining accuracy.

This part is not presided over by Zhang Xun, but the self-development of the institute, Zhang Xun expressed encouragement, once this part of the finishing products are launched, immediately began to seize the market in five countries.

In particular, merchants in the east heard the wind and began to buy on a large scale.

So, when he was looking through the twists and turns one day, Zhang Xun was surprised to find that Yingyang's export trade to several surrounding kingdoms had been greatly improved.

However, the kingdom's finances did not rise.

Is there a reason for this......

"Has the price of grain risen?" Zhang Xun was very unhappy when he saw the news.

In recent seasons, several kingdoms that have produced more grain have encountered natural disasters of varying degrees, resulting in reduced grain production, and this is the last crop of grain this year, which has put pressure on the kingdom's finances, which have recently begun to be slightly more prosperous due to more inputs.

"You don't need people to take the initiative to sanction food, just if the price rises normally, you have to grit your teeth. Zhang Xun sighed, threw down the fold, pushed open the door, and found that the trees in the imperial garden were no longer green, and there were more yellow leaves on the ground.

Yes, another autumn is coming, a long time to be exact, which means that the long winter is about to come again.

The difference is that, judging from the numbers on the books, this winter, the people of Yingyang can have a little better.

In particular, Zhang Xun ordered a few days ago to reduce this year's taxes by 10%, nominally in the name of appeasing the war.

"It seems that there is nothing to be done in terms of food this year, and I hope we can do better next year. Zhang Xun muttered to himself, and suddenly, there was an extra cloak on his shoulders.

When I turned my head, it was Lancôme who came over at some point.

The chief maid carefully put on the cloak for Zhang Xun, and then suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the grain harvest in the bridgehead this season has increased again, and it is still rising despite the disaster, which should be the only one in the five countries." ”

"Yes, it has indeed risen, but this is because the disaster is very light, and secondly, because the farm tools have been mastered, and more land has been opened, and it is only a little more. Zhang Xun sighed, in this regard, it can only be regarded as unsatisfactory.

Lancôme said softly: "But this is already very good, the days are always getting better, especially this year, the whole Eagle Yang is thriving." Everything is moving in a good direction. ”

"I like the last sentence you said. Zhang Xun said with a smile.

After laughing, he turned around and asked, "By the way, how is the movie? Did you finish filming your part of the scene a few days ago?"

As a cultural worker, Zhang Xun knew that too much interference was devastating to cultural creation, so after teaching the purely silent film technical points, he didn't care too much.

"Well, the filming has basically been completed, not enough to listen to the director, there are still a few sections with poor results, and they need to be rethought, Mr. Steven is really serious about his work. Lancôme laughed.

"Well, I can see that Steven wants to do a little better. Zhang Xun nodded and said, "In this case, probably, it can be finished before the winter." ”

"It should be no problem, Steven said that he would submit it for review as soon as it is done. ”

"Okay, but don't be careless, as the first real film, I can give him some convenience, but for some red lines, the censorship will not be soft. Zhang Xun said with a serious face, and after speaking, he couldn't help laughing after realizing it.

Lancôme didn't know why, but subconsciously smiled.

At this time, a waiter suddenly arrived and reported a new news.

"The envoy from the eastern realm asks to see Viscount Duran, has he finally arrived?" Zhang Xun was taken aback.

It has been a long time since I got the news last time that the envoy from the east was coming to Yingyang, and according to the distance, Du Lan should have arrived a long time ago, and the delay in arriving for such a long time can only mean one thing, that is, for the plan given by Zhang Xun, some people in the east, or some nobles, or the royal family, in short, someone is blocking all this.

This once made Zhang Xun very worried, so when he heard the news that Duran asked to see him, he immediately ordered a summons.
