059：

Ju Mingfeng said it lightly, but Lin Shu had no way to take what he said as lightly.

He covered his face silently, his eyes were a little red, but his heart was getting heavier and heavier. Lin Shu was silent for a long time, feeling that the cruelest thing the world had ever done to him was actually not the tribulations he encountered when he was growing up...... It's that God just refuses to let him fall in love with Ju Mingfeng.

He can be very good to Ju Mingfeng, he can be intimate with him, and he hopes that Ju Mingfeng will be happy...... Ju Mingfeng's happiness can only be given by Lin Shu, but Lin Shu just can't give the most complete "happiness".

This fact makes people feel a sense of pathos.

Ju Mingfeng let Lin Shu know what love is, but Lin Shu couldn't repay the other party for an equally complete relationship. How good would it be if feelings for a person could be decided by the subjective consciousness itself? If that's the case, Lin Shu will definitely decide to love Mingfeng without hesitation, and this life will ...... One life, one life.

And now, in his feelings, there is always one of the most important fragments.

This piece of fragment is called heartbeat.

He doesn't know if a moment of heartbeat is necessary in love. But this kind of unperfection always made Lin Shu feel a little sorry.

Then Lin Shu heard Ju Mingfeng ask, "What about you...... How does going back in time feel to you? ”

Lin Shu paused for a long time before saying, "It's like a miracle." ”

A person who has never lost his heart will never understand what kind of concept it is to lose his mother at a young age and lose his father at a young age. In the movie "August Run," the black people in the church sing a song called "Raiseitup," and one of the lyrics goes like this.

"They keep telling me that I don't need that man, but they don't understand / In reality there is so much pain and pressure and poverty that I have to face alone / Because I have no one to ...... to"

It's a feeling of the world suddenly collapsing. Sometimes, it's not terrible to be miserable or stressed or poor, it's the feeling that the whole world is like you're running out of fulcrums.

Liang Yuehua's death was too hasty, so she didn't have time to realize the fate that her death might bring to Lin Shu. Lin Jinhua's death came from self-selection, and he took his pain and fear too seriously, far overshadowing the little pity for Lin Shu.

However, it would take many years for Lin Shu to regain that fulcrum, and even at the last moment, he was not very sure whether he had found that fulcrum. At one time, Lin Shu was actually very eager to get married and have children, because his desire for family was engraved in his bones, and he was always shouting noisily, hoping to reconstruct the lost qiē and reconstruct a perfect fulcrum.

That impulse is not suppressed by reason. Reason cannot suppress the true desires of a person's heart, nor can they suppress the primordial impulses that come from the deepest part of the soul.

What suppressed this delusion was Lin Shu's feelings for Ju Mingfeng. Lin Shu has always maintained a love for Ju Mingfeng that has nothing to do with □□, and this love makes him rather endure such emptiness than hurt Ju Mingfeng.

When Ju Mingfeng rang his doorbell again, Lin Shu knew that he had no other way to go in his life. But it was just a few shortcomings, not pain, and there was no unwillingness. Rather, there is a sense of security that I have finally returned home.

Then he realized that he didn't know when, Ju Mingfeng had become his new fulcrum.

Lin Shu said that it was like a miracle, that was his sincere words. This miracle was not because of the turn back of time, but only because of the resurrection of the mother from the dead. Time can heal a wound, but that loss is still real, and it will affect every minute and second of your life many years later.

So fate gave him such a chance to redeem, and he was grateful.

Since the establishment of the future platform, the popularity has been rising every day, and the number of registered users has surged. But the previous upward trend was slow and steady, until the second half of August, when the news of the novel's change of game was confirmed, and many authors made simple publicity for the adapted game in their columns according to official requirements.

This incident caused an instant surge in the flow of people who poured into the platform. Since the establishment of Future Games, the mainstream user base is basically some game enthusiasts, but most of this batch of people who have poured in are mostly not, but just ordinary readers who have been purely adapted from the original game.

This group of people is almost all rookies.

But there are not many games that have not been played, and there are advantages to not having played them. The advantage of newcomers is that they are full of novelty about everything, their patience for the plot is much higher than that of gourmets, and the joy of playing a good game is much greater than that of gourmets. Of course, it is not without weaknesses, that is, they can accept that the game is less difficult, and many times they need in-depth game guidance in order to play smoothly.

For this reason, Lin Shu specially reminded Du Sitong that during this time, he specially opened a novice area and began to recommend some predetermined combination module configurations. For example, a modern setting, mixed with three or four popular characters from novels, comes with its own mood tree and a simple development business model game combination configuration.

The popular characters of the novel will make the readers who have poured in from the original novel network have a sense of intimacy, and the cultivation and business model is suitable for most girls who don't like fighting, and the core content of the mood tree system can distinguish the games on the platform from other games, and the semi-intelligent design design makes it easier for many players to invest in the two-dimensional role.

As for other complex mods, Lin Shu asked Jing He to uninstall them all to avoid causing confusion to novices. And if new players want to try out more of the game's features in more depth, they can find a list of mods to buy and load on their own.

In this way, until the last day of August, the registered users of the future platform have reached 100,000, and the total number of downloads and mod purchases has reached 790,000, and an average registered user has purchased nearly eight mods - although a large part of them may only be a few dollars of character design, or general commercial materials, but when these consumption converge, this income is very remarkable.

Among these revenues, all modules created by the engine system will be officially charged 40% of the platform's commission, which is slightly lower than most of the current original literary platforms, and is only comparable to the original female websites that cooperate. In the case of completely original material, only 5% of the transaction tax will be charged.

The popularity of the platform has attracted many material creators and game makers. Within a few months, through the unremitting efforts and persuasion of Bai Miao, the number of registrar illustrators on the platform finally increased to more than 80. These commercial illustrators have signed a contract with the website, and will upload a certain amount of character design, CG or background images every month for general (non-unique authorization, the price is low) or exclusive (unique authorization, the price is comparable to the cost of similar licenses) for sale, and at the same time, they can accept the original art tasks released by other original game makers or officials. In this process, the website takes 5% of the handling fee, and Bai Miao personally takes 1% as the intermediary of the painters, and is responsible for recommending and typesetting for them.

Because of this bonus rate, Bai Miao mobilized painters very energetically, racking his brains every day to try to sign more painters.

In addition, there are also a number of very good character modules and plot copywriting, Lin Shu suspects that there may be professional writers or editors behind these copywriting, but at least he can't find clues just on the registration information. It's a pity that the company currently does not have an intermediary responsible for the content of the text, and Lin Shu does not want to arrange such a staff in the short term in order to avoid competing with the original novel platform too quickly.

With the hot development of the platform, the website has also begun to attract the attention of the outside world. Since the beginning of the past two weeks, Du Sitong has received interviews with several game or computer magazines. With the assistance of Zheng Fangcheng, Du Sitong was interviewed by several influential related magazines and media, introducing the platform and the company.

Among them, there was a request to insist on interviewing Xingze's mysterious boss, and Du Sitong also met it under certain circumstances - Lin Shu and a magazine and a media each conducted a telephone interview.

Because of the professional magazine, the content of the interview is also relatively professional. Ninety percent of the interviews focused on the game itself and some special technical applications, and only gossiped a few personal messages at the end of the interview.

In the previous professional content, the reporter mainly asked Lin Shu about the engine, the motivation of the platform, how to overcome some technical difficulties, and the expected development direction of the platform in the future. Lin Shu replied one by one.

"The reason why I made this platform is because I am very interested in the stand-alone online platform such as Steam in foreign countries, as well as the self-made mod functions of some games such as "Neverwinter Nights" and "The Elder Scrolls Online". Daewoo's "Star Volunteer Series" also included an event editor in one of its titles, but it was quickly discarded. But I don't think it's a bad feature...... In a sense, I think this kind of function can wirelessly continue the life of a stand-alone game.,It's just that there are still too many bugs in the Daewoo system when this function is zài.。 I wondered if there could be such an engine system that could infinitely add new plots, new routes, and new characters, so that you could always experience new game features, but you didn't have to keep looking and wandering between various games. ”

"So you came up with the idea of using mods to connect to the game, right? Before the interview, I also tried your game, and to be honest, the game is really interesting, but there are so many related mod features that many mods don't understand what it's all about. Can you explain to me how these functions are used and how they are combined? ”

Lin Shu replied, "...... I'll give you a rough rundown of the principle, which may not be so detailed. In futuristic games, all feature mods, story mods, and character mods are stored independently. They're generally connected by your persona and your number of files. Functional modules refer to a certain function, such as running a store, such as a character skill system, etc., which are generally divided into several categories, namely economy, props, skills and others. They'll help you along the story route - for example, if you have a gift system in your game, you can earn money to buy gifts to increase a character's favorability, otherwise you'll have to increase or decrease the favorability based on the preset story interactions and dialogue choices in the original character mod. In general, the function module is mainly an interference with some numbers. ”

"The plot mod is a main story, such as the occurrence of a case, the participation of a design competition, and the preparation of a dance performance. If the amount of plot is expanded, then like the pursuit of the general trend of the world in "Three Kingdoms Ideal", or like the process of becoming a white or evil leader in the old game "The Legend of Martial Arts", it can be regarded as a main plot and a kind of plot mod. Character mods are generally the target of the strategy for the cultivation of love, they will have preset behavior patterns, interactive plots, and even according to the functional modules you install, there will be skills, property and other numbers. They'll interact with you and add a story mod if they can. For example, in the plot module of a case, when a non-main character with a character personality of 'wise', 'black-bellied', 'narcissistic', 'wealthy', and 'single' family status needs to join, the plot mod will give priority to the characters who meet the requirements in your character mod, and then rank them into the plot. ”

"Both the story mod and the character mod have preset main quests and ending conditions. If the mission is completed or the conditions are met, the ending will occur. However, even after the ending, your game will not end, but you can continue to load a new main story, or choose another character to continue the story. If you follow the love line, you can also break up with the object of the previous round, or directly choose a new character to inherit the file and continue the game. If you follow the plot line, such as "Three Kingdoms Ideal" or something like that...... You can also load a game like "The Great Emperor of the Han Dynasty" after you finish playing the previous game, right? ”

"That's kind of what the mod is all about."

The interviewer listened, but said, "After listening to your introduction, I also kind of want to go back and continue playing games." ”

Lin Shu said: "Smart choice. ”

The reporter immediately smiled and said, "But the interview still has to continue." Let's finish this interview first. Then he paused and asked, "...... Is there really a mod for "Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty"? ”

Lin Shu said: "...... Nope. But there is a female-oriented mod called "Your Golden House, My Tears", which can fall in love with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. ”

The reporter was a man, but when he heard this answer, he laughed and said, "...... Forget it. ”

……

At the end of the interview, the reporter asked: "Speaking of which, Mr. Lin, your voice sounds very young, are you an adult?" ”

In fact, where is the young? Lin Shu's voice was still a child's voice at all. It's just that his tone of voice is so adult-like that it's hard to imagine that he is a child, so I just thought that his voice was relatively high-pitched.

Lin Shu smiled and said, "Guess? ”

After that, the interviews were broadcast in magazines, websites, or programs, and the reputation of Xingze and the future platform became louder and louder. From the establishment of the platform to the present, Xingze has been developing steadily and rapidly, and according to this shape, it is almost only a matter of time before it grows and grows.

But there's a lot of sweet pain in it -- for example, the server has been a bit stuck lately...... This is the second unit added this month; The business of technical customer service is getting busier...... Zheng Fangcheng felt that the company should have a dedicated personnel manager - hiring three times in two months was annoying.

But overall, these are sweet pains, for all.

Because of the frequent overtime and a large number of affairs during this time, Lin Shu checked the company's accounts and gave everyone a big red envelope to soothe everyone's physical fatigue.

After that, Lin Shu's interview was broadcast on the Electronic Culture Channel, and the attention it attracted was not big, but it was not small.

Liang Yuehua has known about this matter for a long time, Liang Jiwen's father, Lin Shu's second uncle, and the only brother in Liang Yuehua's life, Liang Jingyan himself is the intermediary who notified Lin Shu that a certain program of electronic culture wants to interview Xingze, and he is also clear about the situation.

But I don't know if it's intentional or unintentional, no one has ever mentioned it to Liang Jiwen, the kid. So when everyone started watching the show around the TV and listening to the relevant news, Liang Jiwen didn't know what the news had to do with his family.

But he himself has always been interested in the news of electronic technology, and this time the news is about games, so Liang Jiwen didn't ask more, just listened attentively, and at the end, said: "This platform sounds really fun, let me write down the URL later." ”

Then at this time, Lin Shu's introduction to the nature of the game and a screenshot of the telephone interview appeared in the background.

Lin Shu's tone in the interview was stable and logical, and Liang Yuehua and Liang Jingyan couldn't help but smile when they heard it, only Liang Ji couldn't understand why, raised his head and blinked, and suddenly said: "This voice sounds a bit similar to Lin Shu." ”

Several adults looked at each other for a moment, and then asked, "You don't know?" ”

Liang Jiwen looked at his parents and aunt blankly.

Liang Yuehua looked at Lin Shu and asked, "Why, you didn't tell your cousin?" ”

Several adults did not deliberately publicize this matter to their children, but they did not deliberately hide it. They all thought that this kind of thing, Lin Shu was still so young, he would definitely not be able to help but show off to his peers.

But I didn't expect this child to be so tight-lipped.

Lin Shu doesn't like to talk to Liang Jiwen about this, and he is still guarding against the other party - competitors are his real attitude towards Liang Jiwen. It's not necessary yet...... But the mentality that has been cultivated over the years will not change easily.

This child has had a bad problem since he was a child, and he pays attention to "joy and anger". No one had ever taught him such a thing, but he had no teacher.

Therefore, Lin Shu has always disliked to leak his information, plans, and ideas to others, and he neither likes to show off nor show off unless it is necessary or beneficial to him. He likes to silently bury hole cards for himself and traps for others.

But at this moment, it seems meaningless and unrealistic to continue to hide from Liang Jiwen. So he smiled and said, "I didn't talk about it." It's a little embarrassing to talk to Brother Ji Wen about this, as if he was showing off. ”

So his uncle and aunt praised Lin Shu for being really shy, saying that he was cute, that is, Liang Jiwen glanced at his cousin, then at his cousin, and then pricked up his ears and silently looked at the screen, and was surprised...... There was some inexplicable melancholy.

In the evening, Liang Jiwen asked Lin Shu: "Why don't you tell me that you make games?" ”

Lin Shu didn't expect him to question himself directly, but he still said: "I just feel embarrassed to say it, and it's not a game I made alone." ”

Liang Jiwen said, "Why are you embarrassed? I'm not going to be jealous of you or anything just because you made the game first. He glared at Lin Shu for a long time, and his tone was a little sad, "If Lin Shu makes a game, I will only be happy for you." ”

Lin Shu said: "Don't you know now? ”

Liang Ji heard him say this, but he felt that he couldn't find the right words to answer for a long time.

To be honest, if he had known the news the day before, Liang Jiwen felt that he would be very excited, and maybe he would ask Lin Shu about the process, but at this time, he felt quite bored, and he was not in the mood to ask.

But the child's mood changed a lot, so although the atmosphere was a little awkward the night before, the next day Liang Jiwen was not emotional, and began to register an account for the future game with great interest, and began to choose the game.

Then at this time, Lin Shu received a phone call. Zheng Fangcheng said in a stern tone, and said: "Boss, are you busy now, is it convenient to surf the Internet?" ”

After Lin Shu expressed his affirmation, Zheng Fangcheng asked him to search for a news information on the Internet, and the keywords given were "Feixin" and "new project online".

Lin Shu listened to his tense tone, so he didn't waste his effort, and immediately searched for relevant information.

Then I saw the news all over the world, and everyone was brushing Feixin Games is about to cooperate with UV, a famous Korean game manufacturer, to jointly create Asia's largest original game trading platform. At present, the two sides have embarked on an engine project to produce the most innovative and excellent original game software that can satisfy players at all levels.

This propaganda is everywhere, almost all the news sites that Lin Shu is familiar with, and some even have news videos.

The man in the video is in his early thirties, amiable but confident.

Lin Shu recognized this person.

Miao Yizhi has a name that does not match his appearance and personality at all, he himself used to be the general director of Feixin Games, at least on the eve of Feixin's crisis, his identity is the CEO of Feixin Games.

However, at that time, Feixin was already at the end of its strong crossbow, and the continuous infringement lawsuits had already dragged the entire group into a quagmire, and several defeats had brought the entire group's reputation to the ground. Miao Yizhi, who was entrusted with a heavy responsibility at that time, took many emergency measures to try to turn the tide, and he was only a little bit away from success.

Because he met the most famous intellectual property lawyer in anti-infringement later, Li Zewei.

Of course, that's another story.

Really speaking, compared with the stupid tricks that once made the entire network cry and laugh when his predecessor was in office, Miao Yizhi did a really good job.

It's just that the timing is not right after all.

After Feixin was acquired, Miao Yizhi didn't appear much again, and Lin Shu didn't pay much attention to the other party anymore. However, in the commercial infringement lawsuit, Miao Yizhi's handling as the defendant has always been used by the university as a classic negative teaching material to students, so Lin Shu is very familiar with the name Miao Yizhi. But he didn't expect that this time, the other party would enter the management of Feixin so early.

"It's a strong competitor. ”

Fetion's momentum at this time is indeed in full swing, except for a few giants in the industry, there are few companies that can seize its edge. But Lin Shu didn't feel too nervous.

He said, "Brother Zheng, you stabilize first. There is a big gap between the project and the actual online platform. What's more, our engine systems are not uncompetitive. ”

Zheng Fangcheng said: "But in terms of publicity, we will definitely be at a disadvantage, and Fetion has a lot of favorable resources. It has the largest instant messaging user base in the country, and Kuaishu is directly a group under its name, and they have advantages in various aspects. ”

Lin Shu listened, was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked, "By the way, Brother Zheng." The contract for "Legend of Destiny" has been signed, right? ”

“！？” Zheng Fangcheng was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It's been signed, so there shouldn't be any changes." ”

Lin Shu thought for a while and said, "I hope there is no change." ”

But what happened after that was not the contract of the Mandate of Heaven, but the movement of the still water.

Du Sitong has been talking about some works on the side of the Jingshui Academy, but because of the price issue, it has not been discussed, and it has not been more or less effective until recently, and Du Sitong has just negotiated the terms with the other party the day before yesterday, and only the final steps of signing the contract are left.

But the subsequent signing was not completed, and Jingshui has been delaying the official signing. When Du Sitong went to urge today, the other party said that there were some problems with all contracts and needed to be renegotiated.

Lin Shu had the impression that his teacher Du was really a good-tempered little girl, but she was completely blown up when she received this call. If it weren't for her lack of strength, Lin Shu suspected that she would directly pinch the mobile phone in her hand.

The roof leak happened to rain overnight.

Lin Shu thought for a moment and said to Du Sitong: "There is no need to talk about the authorization over there in Jingshui, it doesn't make any sense." Next, Mr. Du, please contact the management, I think we may be able to cooperate further. ”

Du Sitong asked, "What's wrong with the still water?" ”

She had been entangled with the other party for so long, and when she heard Lin Shu say that she wanted to give up, she was very uncomfortable for a while and felt unwilling.

Lin Shu didn't know her mental activities, but said very strictly: "There's no need to talk about it over there, even if it does, it's mostly in vain." Your time is precious, and it's best not to spend it on it. ”

Then he spoke up again: "It's hard for us to get hold of the original works over there in Kuaishu, especially after Feixin plans to involve similar platforms." So we can further deepen the cooperation with Enter. First of all, let's start with the opening of copyright. ”

"I believe that comprehensive cooperation is also very beneficial to the other party."
