Chapter 131: The Beginning of "The Adventure King".
Zhang Lexing raised his wrist and looked at his watch, it was already 1:06 in the afternoon, it stands to reason that the plane should be coming, fortunately, at this time, Cheng Beier, the administrative secretary of Oriental Electronic Entertainment Co., Ltd., brought a good news, the flight from Beijing has successfully landed at Hong Kong Kai Tak Airport, Zhang Lexing's heart has been hanging back finally let go.
Standing outside the terminal for about half an hour, the eighteen-member development team from the creative workshop dragged their luggage and walked out along the passenger passage one after another. Looking at the familiar or unfamiliar figures gradually coming over, Zhang Lexing's heart was in a trance, as if he had suddenly returned to the first time when the team of game development rookies went abroad for the first time a few years ago, and there were exactly eighteen people at that time, and a few of them happened to be among the people who came this time.
"Boss~" Zhong Guoqiang, who was walking in the front and dressed as a team leader, saw Zhang Lexing coming in person, and waved his hand excitedly, and the people behind him also sped up their pace and surrounded him.
"Everyone has worked hard all the way, let's get in the car first!" Zhang Lexing greeted the crowd with a smile when he saw the crowd around, and then called Zhong Guoqiang over and asked in a low voice: "Why are you acting like a tour group, just take a small flag." ”
Zhong Guoqiang smiled embarrassedly: "Many people are coming out for the first time, and they are afraid of getting separated, so they ......"
Zhang Lexing couldn't help but laugh dumbly, everyone has fewer opportunities to come out, it seems that in the future, we can consider providing travel incentives to outstanding teams and individuals, which can not only broaden everyone's knowledge, but also bring some unexpected ideas.
Zhong Guoqiang introduced the members of the group who came to Hong Kong one by one to Zhang Lexing: "Boss, we have a total of 18 people this time, including four people with more than five years of experience, five people with more than three years of experience, and five and four people with more than one year of experience in the remaining two years and more than one year respectively, all of whom are the best people in planning, programming and art. This is Xu Ze......"
Zhang Lexing listened to Zhong Guoqiang's introduction, shook hands with the people he introduced, and by the way, he was encouraging a few words, his project still expects these people to do it, of course, he will not be bored at this time.
After Zhong Guoqiang's introduction, everyone boarded the bus parked on the side of the road, and the bodyguards were divided into two groups, some of them followed Zhang Lexing to the bus, and the other part of them took several commercial vehicles to perform protection work in front and back of the bus. Led by a commercial vehicle, the convoy quickly set off towards the hotel.
After coming to the hotel, Cheng Beier received the reserved room room card from the front desk, and distributed them to Zhong Guoqiang and others one by one, she did it very seriously, and smiled and greeted when she handed the room card over, because today is a good opportunity for her to perform in front of the big boss, although she is just a small administrative secretary, but she is not willing to be a secretary forever, she hopes to have her own office one day. After Cheng Beier sent the room card, she carefully glanced at Zhang Lexing, she found that the big boss's face didn't seem to be very good, and her heart couldn't help but tremble: "Did you do something wrong?"
Poor Cheng Beier didn't know that Zhang Lexing didn't notice her sending the room card just now, and her face was not very good at this time, but she actually thought of one thing, "The Adventure King" planned to achieve a more realistic martial arts fighting effect through motion capture, but he forgot to discuss it with Ma Guanghai. Although Ma Guanghai is his bodyguard and driver, collecting martial arts movements is not within the scope of his daily work after all, and this is also a bit of a suspicion of spying on martial arts secrets, Zhang Lexing is really not sure that he will definitely agree.
Fortunately, Ma Guanghai is not far behind him, and there will inevitably be any twists and turns in the future, Zhang Lexing immediately walked over and told him his thoughts, but he didn't expect Ma Guanghai to be quite open-minded, so he agreed immediately, and Zhang Lexing's only worry was gone.
Cheng Beier, who was worried in her heart, secretly glanced at Zhang Lexing again, she was surprised to find that the big boss's face was actually better again, and now she was completely confused, and she couldn't figure out what kind of impression her performance today left in the big boss's heart, so she had to stand in the hall and sigh helplessly.
According to Zhang Lexing's idea, Zhong Guoqiang's gang flew all the way over, they must rest and rest, and they will talk about it tomorrow, but they didn't expect that after they went back to the room and put their luggage away, they couldn't wait to start working immediately, and in desperation, Zhang Lexing had to comply with public opinion and held the first preliminary meeting of "The Adventure King" in the conference room of the hotel.
Zhang Lexing took out the prepared materials and distributed them to everyone, and then introduced his idea straight to the point: "The era of the game takes place in 1932, when in Shanghai, Adventure King and his assistant opened a private detective agency. One day, a mysterious client came to the detective agency and asked the adventure king to help him find an ancient jade slip, which, according to the client, was likely to have fallen into the hands of a Japanese named Tanaka Jiro, so the adventure king and his assistant began an investigation of Tanaka Jiro, which led to a series of adventures......"
After listening to Zhang Lexing's introduction to the story part of "The Adventure King", Zhong Guoqiang finally couldn't help but stand up and asked: "Boss, I just looked at the information, this seems to be an idea I came up with beforehand." ”
Zhang Lexing nodded and said, "That's right, this is the idea back then, but I added some content to make this idea more perfect." If you want, I intend you to take charge of this project. ”
Zhong Guoqiang was stunned, although he also has several years of development experience, but he has never really been in charge, he can't imagine that the boss has so much trust in him, he can't help but nod excitedly: "Boss, I will definitely do my best and never disappoint your expectations." ”
"I don't know if you've read the material, but the idea of this game is very grand, and it also involves motion capture, I hope you take it seriously. Although Zhang Lexing planned to let Zhong Guoqiang take over the development of this game, he didn't want to be entrusted to someone else, so he specially reminded him.
Zhong Guoqiang seemed to have understood, his face became more cautious, and he picked up the information again and looked at it carefully, while the others looked at Zhong Guoqiang with a kind of envy, especially the three who were the same age as him, they all came by plane together, and they didn't expect Zhong Guoqiang to be so lucky.
"I'll call him "The Adventure King" for the time being, it's an action-adventure game, and the scenes will include some streets in Shanghai, as well as some inside buildings, as well as some scenes in the wild, and even ancient tombs. In order to make these movements more realistic, I plan to use motion capture ......technology to decrypt the main character in the game by climbing, dragging, jumping, etc., and to destroy enemies through fighting," Zhang Lexing then said about the idea of "Adventure King".
At this time, one of the old employees, Ma Yongqiang, stood up and said: "Boss, we haven't done this motion capture, I'm afraid it's ......."
Zhang Lexing smiled and comforted: "You don't have to worry about this, there is a company called Dongfang Shen Yun here, which does movie special effects, and the motion capture equipment is there, and your studio is also located there this time, and they have someone to teach you how to use it." If I take you to see it tomorrow, it won't be difficult to put it into practice, and you'll have to come into contact sooner or later anyway. ”
After talking about the idea of "The Adventure King" for a while, Zhang Lexing felt that everyone didn't seem to understand what he heard, so he drew a schematic diagram on the whiteboard in the conference room, and then said: "Look, this is a game scene I imagined, somewhere inside the Japanese headquarters building. ”
"You can stand on the beam, there is a certain distance between the beams in these two places, and you can't jump directly according to the convention, you need to jump up in the air and grab the opposite beam with one hand......" Zhang Lexing said while gesturing on the whiteboard: "In short, unlike those action games now, it is just a simple run and jump, and there must be more complex actions, just like some dangerous actions in action movies." ”
Casually erasing the schematic diagram from the whiteboard, Zhang Lexing drew a picture of the confrontation between the two people again. "I don't know if you've ever played VR Warrior, but in my imagination I hope that the fighting can be similar to "VR Warrior", with a very real combat ......effect," Zhang Lexing said, imitating Ma Guanghai's moves a few times: "I hope the game can play a real martial arts effect." ”
After speaking, Zhang Lexing looked at everyone's expressions and found that everyone seemed to be still pondering, so he waved his hand and announced: "Let's talk about this first, let's take the information back and think about it, if there is any problem, let's go to see the motion capture equipment tomorrow." Oh, I've arranged dinner for everyone, and don't forget to go to the restaurant on the second floor when it's six o'clock. Alright, adjourn!"
The first preliminary meeting of "The Adventure King" ended hastily, although there were no results, but Zhang Lexing was not in a hurry, he knew that this game could not be made all at once, at least to achieve the desired effect, it is estimated that the application of 3D acceleration cards is indispensable, plus what motion capture, martial arts system and the like, are still new topics for these developers. I want to help, but in the current environment, what can be done is very limited, at most to provide the best development environment possible, whether it can be done, what can be done, can only depend on the developers themselves.
