After walking the "game road", the official article after the opening of the museum is finished, and then it is the time for everyone to visit freely, after cordially sending off those leaders, not only Zhang Lexing breathed a sigh of relief, but also other people who stayed to continue the visit were also relieved, as if the shackles that had been binding on the body disappeared, and the atmosphere became active, fortunately, He Lili was well-trained so that she could not deal with this situation.

At the current end of the "Game Road" on the 2nd floor, everyone went to find the place they were interested in according to the guide map in their hands, and Zhang Lexing did the same, and Zhao Haiguang and a few other people continued to visit along the passage on the 2nd floor, and even He Lili, a full-time tour guide, was sent away, because most of the collections in the museum were provided by him, and I am afraid that no one can compare to him in terms of familiarity, and in addition to the "Game Road", there are commentators in other places, and there is no need to worry about any accidents.

"Lexing, where are we going?" Zhao Haiguang asked casually.

"Oh, the Source of Chinese Games Theme Pavilion is on the 2nd floor. Zhang Lexing pointed to the distance not far ahead and said, "That direction." ”

"Well," Zhao Haiguang nodded and said, "That must be the history of the development of the domestic game industry." ”

"That's basically it, but it's not just about recording the history that everyone knows, but I also hope that through the museum, I can preserve the records of the past that have been obliterated, and those who have disappeared from sight, no matter what they have done, no matter what kind of ideas they have in mind, I think it is necessary to leave some marks on the road of Chinese game development. ”

Zhang Lexing explained the reason why he set up the "Theme Pavilion of the Source of Chinese Games", in fact, the reason why he had this idea is also because of some materials he had read, in the history that was not influenced by him, before the development of domestic computer games, there were actually many people who devoted themselves to the game industry, but for various reasons, most of them gradually disappeared, and only a very few people stayed to work hard. The current situation is actually similar, although the early strugglers did not gradually fade out according to the previous trajectory, but due to the neglect of public opinion, quite a lot of people still think that the domestic game industry is from 93, 94 years of rise, even if there are people who understand, they only have some vague understanding from the text, Zhang Lexing does not want future players to mention the history of game development only Sid Meier, John Carmack, Suzuki Yu and others, but also to be able to think of Fu Zan, who made the modified version of "Tank Wars", Chen Tianming, Mr. Cao, who made great contributions to the development of learning machines, and Huang Ji, who was the first to write game research books, and others.

Zhao Haiguang walked a few steps, suddenly seemed to remember something and stopped, leaned on the armrest and looked at the empty hall below and said: "Lexing, I see that there seems to be only one 'game road' downstairs in you, isn't it too wasteful to have such a large space in the middle?"

"Don't worry, it won't be empty all the time, starting next week, there will be a small special exhibition there every month, if you are interested, Brother Zhao, you can come and take a look, it will definitely be worth the trip." ”

Zhang Lexing sold a pass, and deliberately did not say the content of the special exhibition. Zhao Haiguang smiled, didn't say anything, he was not in a hurry at all, there was no need, anyway, this museum would not fly in Beijing, and I was afraid that I would not be able to come and see it at the time.

"By the way, Lexing, what are your plans for this museum?"

"Well, that's not what you see, there is a 'game road' between the 1st and 2nd floors to introduce the development history of games, the hall on the 1st floor is temporarily empty for Liu Kai's small special exhibition, the 2nd floor includes the 'Origin of Chinese Games' that shows the history of domestic games, the 'Computer Game Milestones' that introduces the origin of computer games, the 'Game Hall of Fame' that focuses on the lives of well-known game developers, and the 'Game Library' that displays game books and rare game development plans and other materials, which are both available for display and sale. There is also a part of the area on the 3rd floor as a theme pavilion, such as the "Red and White Pavilion" that displays FC game consoles and a full set of games of various specifications, and the "arcade hall" equipped with all business machines from the beginning of "Space Invaders" to the present......" Zhang Lexing glanced at the guide map in his hand, and then began to talk eloquently, although he is the main donor of this museum, but he can't do the specific planning and design himself, so he can only have a general understanding of the situation in the museum.

"Lexing, are all of these tour guides on the map you mentioned, I want to ask you if you have any follow-up plans?" Zhao Haiguang asked with a little crying and laughing.

"Well, I haven't thought of it yet. Zhang Lexing smiled awkwardly, to be honest, this "video game history museum" can be regarded as the most unique one in the world, he didn't even want to refer to the place, so he had to learn from the operation experience of those more popular museums abroad, first put out the exhibits, as for whether it is reasonable or not, it can only be modified slowly in the future, anyway, the fashion building of the times is a full-frame structure, and it doesn't matter much how to adjust it in the future.

……

Li Wenbo glanced at the guide map in his hand, and then looked up at the door number of the theme pavilion in front of him, which read "Game Hall of Fame", and he sighed softly, it seemed that he was not looking for the wrong place. The first time he came, coupled with the fact that the area of the "Video Game History Museum" is very huge, he was really worried about finding the wrong place, but fortunately, there were signs along the way, and with the help of the tour guide, he still found the "Game Hall of Fame" he wanted to see.

As a veteran gamer who is very interested in game development, Li Wenbo has always been very yearning for the lives of those famous game developers, and in the past, he could only find some fragments from newspapers and magazines, which made him very uncomfortable, but now that he has the "Game Hall of Fame", he hopes to get what he wants and see more introductions from famous game developers.

Passing through the simple door of the "Game Hall of Fame", Li Wenbo's eyes were not Sid Meier, John Carmack, Will White and other game celebrities, but a statue of a foreign old man who looked a little strange.

Johan Huizinga, born December 7, 1872 in Groningen, the Netherlands, died February 1, 1945, was a well-known Dutch linguist and historian. In 1891 he was admitted to the University of Groningen to study literature and Sanskrit. In 1915 he became a professor at Leiden University and in 1932 he became rector. He was arrested and imprisoned by the Germans in 1942 and died of illness in 1945, on the eve of the liberation of the Netherlands.

His main works include: "My History Path", "The Decline of the Middle Ages", "Tomorrow is Coming", "The Man of the Game"

There is also a line at the bottom of the biography that explains why John Huizinha, a person who has nothing to do with the video game world, was placed at the gate of the "Game Hall of Fame".

Next to the statue of Johann Huizinha, there is also a thing that looks like a query machine, Li Wenbo walked over and looked at it, it turned out to be a query machine, not only can you find out the life of many famous game developers, and even the old Dutch man's book "The Man of the Game" has an excerpt in Chinese and English, he turned it through curiously, but saw a lot of words that made him feel refreshed, such as "Culture is shown in the form of games, and it has been in games from the beginning." In the earliest stage of culture, there are the characteristics of games, and culture is promoted in the atmosphere and form of games. In the twin union of play and culture, play comes first", "play is an activity that is carried out according to rules that are voluntarily accepted but absolutely binding", and "play is closed". There is an independence between games and daily life in time and space", which gave him a deeper understanding of the nature of games.

"It turns out that there is such a thing as game theory that can be studied!" This is another feeling after Li Wenbo read the excerpt of "The Man of Games". He originally thought about the game very simply, or only thought about how to play it, that is, after attending the short course of Fengyun Game Academy last year, he occasionally pondered how to design a fun game, and he didn't think that the game could do any theoretical research at all.

Casually pressed the exit button, Li Wenbo continued to walk into the "Game Hall of Fame", after all, the main purpose of his visit today was to see Sid Meier, John Carmack, Will White and other game celebrities, not to come here to see the old Dutch man.

He didn't go far before he saw the number one game celebrity next to the gate, who was his favorite SimCity creator, Will White. On the large photo, Will White, dressed in a black leather coat, is holding his hands, leaning sideways, and looking at Li Wenbo looking at the photo through the lenses, which makes people feel like they are looking directly. Next to the photo is a large sign with Will White's life introduction, from the date of birth, to the parents' family, childhood anecdotes, and growth experience, etc., with the characters in the newly baked "The Sims", bit by bit depicting how an ordinary child grows up to become an ace game producer. After reading it, Li Wenbo couldn't help but feel a rush of impulse in his heart, a creative passion rushed out, and he couldn't help but think of the unfinished half-finished game on his computer, "It seems that the big guy has to work harder, if it drags on like this, if it doesn't happen like this, this game will be over, then we will never have the opportunity to become a game master like Will White" He thought in his heart.

……

The "Video Game History Museum" has caused a lot of repercussions in the domestic media, not to mention anything else, this unique status in the world alone is worth publicizing, and there are also high-ranking government officials who have visited it, and even more, there are media with eyes in the sky who have dug up the fact that the national leader once sent congratulatory telegrams," ...... ......Although I don't know which state leader's congratulatory telegram appeared in the newspaper, the congratulatory messages and words that seem to look like them still fell into the eyes of many well-intentioned people, and indirectly removed many obstacles to the future development of the "Video Game Historical Museum".

As one of the media that participated in the opening ceremony, Computer World devoted half a page to the inauguration and opening of the "Video Game History Museum" under the headline "Remembering the History of Video Games, the World's First Game Museum Settled in Beijing!", and by the way, a brief history of the development of video games was popularized.

As one of the professional game media, "Video Game Software" used 6 pages of color pages with the title of "The Establishment of the World's First Video Game Museum" to introduce the grand opening of the "Video Game History Museum", not only accompanied by many photos of the museum, but also attached a simplified guide map of the "Video Game History Museum" and detailed opening time at the end of the article, so that interested players can visit.

And many domestic media have invariably mentioned one thing,6month19Will be held in the "Video Game History Museum" 1st floor hall a special exhibition,From the 17th, the first day of visit registration will be accepted,Limited to 3000 people per day,But the content of the exhibition is vague in the media,Many players are soaked in the forum,Crazy posts to discuss the truth of this matter,Just like discussing the mystery of the gift and the authenticity of the domestic game console。

The news of Beijing's establishment of the "Video Game History Museum" spread overseas, causing a lot of media discussions, especially the attention of professional game media, while many bored American netizens gathered in different Irc chat rooms or news groups to discuss, "Why the United States, as the origin of video games, does not have its own video game museum", many American netizens have issued such a call, this call has gradually spread from the Internet to the Internet, and began to go to the pages of some traditional media.

At this moment, a veteran player named Adams stood up and expressed his willingness to donate his life's collection, including the Atari 2600 console in the 1970s to the current three major console PS, N64 and Dreamcast, as well as dozens of handheld game consoles of all kinds, under the influence of Adams's behavior, more players came forward to make up for the missing part of the Adams collection, and at this time, there was also an investor willing to sponsor the game museum A fund called Montara, and it didn't take long for the space problem to be solved, and Universal Entertainment Group was willing to provide its vacant property near Los Angeles for the future game museum, and the first to emerge Adams also became the future director of the game museum。 Everything is ready to be renovated, and players who are willing to support this project are relieved, the only thing that makes them a little regretful is that because it was too late, some early gaming equipment is out of print, such as the legendary "Brown Box".

But what these players didn't expect was that the "video game history museum" in Beijing actually reached out at this time, willing to lend some of the treasures in the museum to the planned game museum in the United States for exhibition. As soon as this news came out, players in the United States couldn't help but rejoice, and the "Video Game History Museum" also took the opportunity to sign a cooperation agreement with Adams, who was in charge of the renovation of the game museum, so that the two sides could exchange information in the collection and have the opportunity to do traveling exhibitions in each other's countries.

The reason why Zhang Lexing has made such a big effort is also for the long-term development of the "Video Game History Museum" in the future, after all, his collection over the years has not been omitted at all, and with the indirect help of players in the United States, the chance to make up for the shortcomings will naturally be greater.

China and the United States have made a big noise about the game museum, and Japan, one of the game powerhouses, can't do it, and CESA (Japan Computer Entertainment Industry Association), the organizer of the Tokyo Game Show, said that it will set up a game console history museum called "GAMEHISTORYMUSEUM" at the autumn exhibition, but in the face of media questions about the specific content of the exhibition, the spokesperson of CESA has been evasive and did not answer positively.

Despite this, many media have published the news that the Game Console History Review Museum will be launched in the autumn with a title similar to "Japan's own game museum", and after seeing the report, many Japanese gamers are full of expectations and begin to save money hard, planning to go to Tokyo in the autumn to experience it in person, although it is not clear what this so-called game console history review museum will look like, but it should not be worse than China, a wild land of the game industry.
