"Golden Harvest died by himself. Li Yixuan gave a cold answer, "The satellite studio has made Golden Harvest, but Golden Harvest is very inauthentic after its success." He promised to pay overseas dividends to those satellite companies, but he never fulfilled them. Even Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan. That's why he finally rebelled and left. ”

After speaking, Li Yixuan looked at Zhang Guifang and sneered: "Do you want to end up like Shaw Brothers and Jiahe? ”

"No matter what time the world is, it is composed of large and small interests, and if you want to live for a long time, you must learn to share profits. No company can make all the wealth in the world, and everyone who holds this idea dies in the end. The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, which is the truth. What is the attitude of the mainland government towards video games, I don't say that you know, even if it is another 50 years, where we simply can't count on it. Although Hong Kong does not ban video games, it is too small to support a game industry.

The only way out for us is to go out, to the big stage of the world, and to compete with American and Japanese game companies. But DreamWorks alone is definitely not enough, we have to unite more compatriots and peers, we have cultivated them, they have grown, they go out to open their own game company, it seems to have cultivated a competitor, in fact, there is an extra comrade-in-arms to share the risk together. We need more comrades-in-arms and more like-minded people to make the game cake bigger, instead of thinking about eating alone before it starts!" After speaking, Li Yixuan put the cup on the table heavily.

Walking to the door, Li Yixuan paused for a moment, and said to Zhang Guifang without looking back: "Before you retired, you were still an elite executive of a large enterprise, but what you say and do, what is the difference between the identity of an elite executive and the fool and fool at the bottom? You can't understand such a simple truth, how far can you go? This is the second time, and there will be a next time, either you will leave, or I will leave." ”

Outside Zhang Guifang's office is the office area, when Li Yixuan came out, the entire office area was very quiet, obviously they vaguely heard the quarrel between the two outside, afraid of harming the pond fish, one and two of them showed that they were working hard.

Li Yixuan didn't know his own office, and went directly to the upstairs development conference room, which is the current talent training center of DreamWorks.

Robotics Engineering has finished today's lecture, and they are doing their job.

Li Yixuan didn't go in, standing at the door and watching them quietly, they also found Li Yixuan. But none of them stood up to greet him, they were doing their job, very focused.

Li Yixuan clapped his hands and turned everyone's attention to him, "Today we will analyze the core game mode of RPG games - the sense of substitution. Li Yixuan's words went straight to his heart, and the listeners nodded silently.

"Each of us has a hero complex in our hearts, and everyone aspires to be a hero, so there are RPG games, in which you will play a character that you can't be in reality, such as a hero who saves the continent, a knight who saves a beautiful princess from an evil dragon, etc., which is what I said before, a game must have a place to impress the reader. Everyone, including Mark Saini, was listening carefully to Li Yixuan's story.

Although what he is talking about now is not very esoteric.

"If we think about it from a different angle, wouldn't it be very interesting? Role playing, the player will generally bring himself into the side of justice, because everyone, no matter what his character, his heart is yearning for light, yearning for justice, if it is not a last resort, who does not want justice? But what if we have to let him play a villain?"

Li Yixuan remembered the novelty and fun of the very creative and subversive game he had played on PSP, and his tone couldn't help but become cheerful. In his opinion, this game is too spoof and too funny. This game is "Don't Be Arrogant!"

"Let's say we put the player in the role of a demon king, who has just snatched a princess from a heroic knight, and wants to have a good time, but the knight is not reconciled, gathers a few friends, and comes to the demon king's cave to kill the demon and save the princess. ”

"We let this player who plays the Demon King have some abilities to block the warriors who come - for example, players can design their own maze to block the steps of the warriors, and can breed many different kinds of monsters to attack the warriors, of course, for the sake of restrictions, players cannot control the behavior of these monsters, and can only cultivate the monsters in the maze through the laws of monster life, such as: birth, ingestion of food, reproduction, death, etc...... As time goes by, more and more warriors will be defeated by the demon king played by the player, and the warriors who come to slay the demon will become stronger and stronger......"

If future generations hear it, they will definitely vomit and say, isn't this "The Legend of Zelda".

Indeed, this is one of the most classic RPGs of the posthumous era, and it is also an ARPG. Li Yixuan is ready to make this game in advance.

This group of people is learning very quickly, whether it is the game setting, the gameplay setting, and the overall picture structure, they are simply making rapid progress, and even the programming that Li Yixuan is most worried about, their progress is still improving.

They use the AM macro assembly language written by Li Yixuan, which is more conducive to the understanding of Easterners in terms of programming syntax, but of course Westerners will be a little uncomfortable. But it doesn't matter.,AM macro assembly and English version.,The syntax setting is more in line with the understanding of Westerners.,They use this.,The same programming system.,There is no compatibility problem at all.。

Li Yixuan assigned them a few elimination games a few days ago, and they have already completed seventy-seven-eighty-eight, and the rest is to continue testing and debugging. Therefore, the development of a new game can be prepared in advance. Once all the match-matching games have been developed, new games will be launched.

Except for "Bubble Bobble", which has an arcade version, the remaining two "Mazu" and "Bejeweled" are both computer versions. The software type of Oranges I personal computer is still too simple, only one spreadsheet software and "Chinese Cube", and he needs more software to support it.

In terms of CPU function, the Legend of Zelda 6502 processor is fully capable of running, after all, the Oranges I personal computer was developed on the basis of FC.

It's not impossible to be a game console, but the current cartridge capacity can't keep up. The cartridge is composed of a DARM read-only memory chip, and the capacity of a single DARM chip in 78 has just reached 32K, and the first generation of "The Legend of Zelda" is a game released by Nintendo in 1986, and the capacity has exceeded 3MB after compression, and now it is only 1978, a full eight years earlier than in history.

If you want The Legend of Zelda to work perfectly, you have to choose the Oranges I computer.

Because, the Oranges I computer uses a 5.3-inch floppy drive floppy disk, in fact, the correct name is 5.25 inches. However, the Chinese like to round up, so it is customary to call it a 5.3 drive.

This floppy drive was released by Shugart Associates in the United States in 1976, it is a thin high-density floppy disk drive, with a capacity of 1.2M, and the price of a floppy disk is not expensive, the retail price of each floppy disk is only $3, which is much cheaper than the 3.5-inch floppy disk 15 released by Sony in 80 years at $15 per piece, so the 5.25-inch floppy disk drive came out and received a warm welcome from the market.

The Legend of Zelda has a compressed capacity of more than 3MB, which can be done on three floppy disks.

As Li Yixuan recounted, everyone was attracted by the extremely subversive setting he had just proposed, and they all kept imagining such a game in their minds, and then their faces showed a feverish look.

"But ......" At this time, a voice suddenly sounded, and Li Yixuan looked at the place where the voice sounded, it was the young man named Will Wright who had let himself talk materialistically before.

Say. Li Yixuan motioned for him to continue, he wanted to know what the future legend had to say.

Will Wright smiled shyly and continued: "Boss, I don't think the game you just said can be considered an ordinary RPG game, this should be a ......" In the middle of speaking, Will Wright suddenly stopped, and then he blushed, and he suddenly realized that he couldn't find an accurate word to accurately describe the characteristics of this game.

“simulation。 At this time, Li Yixuan said a word with a smile.

Will Wright's face immediately showed a look of surprise, "Yes, boss, it's simulation, this should be a simulation game, although the player is still playing a character in the game, but his game behavior in the game is completely different from the previous RPG role, he plays the game by building or some other way." ”

"It gives people a sense of accomplishment in business. Li Yixuan summed up for Will Wright again.

"Yes, yes, boss, I was designing a game when I was bored before, it was a helicopter top-down visual shooting, vertical scrolling game, when I was designing the map of the city inside, I found that it was very interesting to plan the city, and it was also very interesting to choose how to add buildings, I thought it was possible to make such a game, that is, let the player simulate the planner of a city, let them choose how to build a city- They can choose the type of city they want to build, whether it is an industrial city, a commercial city, a tourist city, etc. ”

The more Will Wright spoke, the more excited he became, and his words also infected some of the other people, who also showed interest on their faces, and from Will Wright's description, you can also see how attractive this brand new game is that only exists in the setting.

Isn't this SimCity? Unexpectedly, because of his impression, Will Wright advanced the idea of "SimCity" in advance.

However, using an 8-bit computer to run SimCity seems to be a bit insufficient, and in Li Yixuan's impression, the earliest SimCity should be "SimCity 2000", which is a 16-bit game.

"Yes, but have you ever thought that your computer can't run it at the current performance? ”

"This ......," Will Wright frowned, "I'll consider the CPU's upper limit." ”

Li Yixuan shook his head, it seemed that he still didn't fully understand what he meant, "The capacity of this game is definitely not small, with the current memory capacity of the computer, if you want to install it, how many floppy disks are you going to use to install it, and how much will it cost? Are consumers willing to pay for such a high-priced game?"

Will Wright was stopped by a barrage of questions, and finally he shook his head helplessly.

Li Yixuan patted him on the shoulder, "Although it can't be done now, you can do preliminary work, such as game planning or something, to refine and mature your ideas." When the hardware of the computer is up to the mark, can you implement your idea? What do you think of the new game called SimCity?"

Will Wright silently read both sides, and a hint of joy appeared on his face: "Not bad. ”

Li Yixuan certainly knows who Will Wright is, the father of the famous simulation, it was he who pioneered the concept of simulation games, and launched the first real simulation game in 89 - "SimCity", the idea of this game came from the design of the city map that he later named "Raid-on-Bungeling-Bay", the domestic translation of the fc game called Imperial Helicopter or Rescue Helicopter The fun of design was generated.

As for the Sims, another simulation masterpiece he later designed, this series occupies a very high historical position in the history of games, this is the highest-selling PC game in history, and the total sales of "The Sims" are enough to rank in the top 10 even in the entire game platform.

"But before I do that, I have one more task for you. ”

"What?" asked Will Wright.

"I just told me about the story of the knight saving the princess, I named him "The Legend of Zelda", I will be the chief producer of the game, you and Mark Seni will be my deputy, and you will be responsible for the setting of the game script. ”

"Game script!oh no," Will Wright exaggerated, "BOSS, I think you should find Wang Shiqi, she came out of TVB, she is a screenwriter in TVB, she is more suitable than me." ”

Li Yixuan smiled, but he didn't expect Will Wright to be a little timid, "Listen to man, game producers, especially the chief producer, are like the director of a movie, not only to know how to design games, but also to plan game plans, and even master the writing of game scripts, which are the basic skills of game producers." If you want to take charge of a game team on your own one day, you have to take this lesson. ”

Will Wright agreed, "Okay, I promise." I have a request, though. ”

"You say. ”

Will Wright pointed at Wang Shiqi, "I need her to help me." ”

"A good game producer has to learn to unite his colleagues and lead them to victory. Okay, I'm good at your request. ”
