Chapter 201: Dungeon
Zhang Zijie saw the mystery of what Xie Chaochao said, so he looked at it carefully, and finally remembered that it was someone from some foreign game magazines. At that time, ebox and Microsoft also invited this group of people to do hardware evaluations. It's just that they didn't get praise, but instead ridiculed one by one, so Zhang Zijie didn't invite them again when he was unhappy, and his impression was naturally not deep.
"It looks like they're very appreciative of the Pangu host, but you half-house universities don't think that this will allow you to enter the foreign market, right?"
Zhang Zijie has experience in dealing with foreign countries, and understands that it is impossible to lay a foundation in foreign countries with a few propaganda alone, although he always has some grievances with Pangu, but he doesn't want to see it fall into it. After all, it is a country, if Pangu can really play abroad, then he is also honored.
"Hahaha, this is naturally impossible. These people can only be regarded as outposts, a signal, and the real general attack is still brewing. β
Xie Chaochao is full of confidence in the Pangu host, but in fact, he is full of confidence in the half-house immortals. He has been following the half-house immortal since the beginning of "Crossing", and he has already seen all kinds of magic, and a team that can build an ultra-modern city on its own, what else is impossible. With abundant financial resources and a steady stream of talents, the two 'talents' add up, and it is only a matter of time before they go abroad.
Zhang Zijie saw Xie Chaochao's expression of imperativeness, thinking that the current Banzhai University can be said to be like Zhongtian, so maybe it is really possible. So he also began to wonder in his heart whether to join Pangu's camp. It is safer to develop the Jade Pupil Jian game, but at this time, Hanzhai University is in need of a software vendor, and the preferential conditions obtained by joining the Pangu camp at this time are much more generous than that of the Jade Pupil Jane.
Zhang Zijie was thinking here, and Xie Chaochao had to go there to entertain the game critics over there, so he confessed to Zhang Zijie and left.
These critics had contact with Hantaku University when they released the game "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", and it was also very well received at the time, but since then, few works have been released abroad. They also wondered why this half-house university did not take the opportunity to enter the foreign market, and it was a pity that this opportunity was wasted. Now they finally understand that it turns out that they have been waiting for the birth of this fantastic host.
The surname of this console can be so superior, it is the highest among the current next-generation consoles, and all kinds of functions are also very complete. Generally speaking, a superior surname can lead to an increase in the difficulty of development, so it may not be a good thing, but it also shows that the technical strength of Hantaku University is a double-edged sword.
"Mr. Xie, your console is really good, and the game level is good, but why not release the English version? is as popular as "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" in Europe and the United States. β
A foreign critic liked the game "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" very much, thinking that it was a perfect combination of Chinese and Western cultures, so he had high expectations for Hantake University. It's just that he waited for a long time, but he didn't see a continuation, which was really disappointing to him. Now, in addition to the console, I finally found no traces of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2" after shopping, so I reminded it a little.
"Hahaha, Mr. Wilson, don't be in a hurry. Someone has already proposed the project of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2", and it has passed the review of the teachers' union, and it will definitely make you get your wish within this year. β
Ghost Blows Out is a pretty best-selling game, and the results are a miracle around the world. But because of this, no one dares to develop a sequel, because the risk is too great. However, there are always newborn calves who are not afraid of death, and the four madmen of Banzhai University took over this job, they think that wealth and fame are in danger, and they have nothing anyway, so it is better to fight to win the top position.
So these four people collaborated to write a plan for "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2", which has now been approved and is being actively produced. The debut results of the four madmen were not satisfactory, but they brought them a lot of experience, so they are still very confident in completing "Ghost Blowing the Lantern 2".
Sending off these satisfied foreign critics, the console press conference is still going on, and various anime performances are emerging one after another. Because of the good results of domestic animation this year, most of them have been put on the stage, and there are also some arrangements for drama performances and so on.
Speaking of this animation, there are joys and excellences, because of the introduction of the new review plan, many excellent animations have entered major TV stations. Most of these animations are scattered in time periods that are not visible to children, but the ratings have been climbing.
Because of the crackdown on piracy in China, uploading such videos is also not allowed unless the video website obtains permission to play it. But even if these sites are licensed, it's usually a week or a month after they've been broadcast on TV. Many anime fans who want to get a sneak peek will watch their favorite anime at a fixed time.
This is the bright side. However, there are still a group of stubborn parents who have taken a boycott attitude towards this kind of animation, believing that this kind of animation is not good for their children's growth. Although it is impossible for their children to see the animation at that time unless they watch it online or buy a CD.
All of a sudden, there was a controversy on the Internet about why children see these restricted animations. Some people think it's a parental control issue, and the parents' response is that they are busy with work and can't take care of everything, and wouldn't it be better if there were no such animations.
However, this kind of controversy has no result, because when the benefits of anime are tasted, it is impossible to stop some protests. TV stations, websites, animation DVDs, and businessmen around them have formed alliances of interest that are difficult to break.
The regulations provided by the glasses girl are quite perfect, and the norms for animation are also very strict. Because of this, some animation companies are very complaining, because if the rating is high, it can only be broadcast late at night, so the response is insufficient. Therefore, in order to lower the rating, many pictures cannot be made, which limits the refreshing feeling of the animation.
Although it was complained by both sides, this regulation is still strong, and no one can shake it. Because Hantaku University has always been a staunch supporter of this regulation, the industry bosses have such an attitude, and others have no choice.
The prosperity of animation has led to the rapid development of related industries, and various peripheral products have emerged in an endless stream, which is vividly reflected in the half-house city. In the commercial area of Hantaku, there are many anime-related shops with a dazzling variety of goods. This has become a scene in the half-house city, attracting countless anime lovers across the country, becoming their favorite place to stay.
As a result, the half-house city is also known as the city of anime and games. In addition, there are many nicknames for the half-house city, such as the city of science and technology, the alien city, the ancient city, and so on. It is no wonder that the planning, architectural style, and plant scenery of the half-house city are different from those of the rest of the world, and the surname is quite strong. Especially the building, there is a tendency to go back to the ancients, although it is still a high-rise building of reinforced concrete, but the whole antique color, has a unique charm.
Outside the half-house mall in the commercial center, there are also several media interviews at the moment. One of them has an interesting title, called "In Search of the Real Half-House Immortal".
This program team randomly interviewed people in the half-house city and asked them to describe what the half-house immortal in their hearts looked like. The answer is strange, what aliens, immortals, prehistoric civilizations, etc., almost all kinds of incredible things are placed on the heads of half-house immortals.
There is also a friend who likes to read novels to put forward a point of view, that is, this half-house immortal must be a reborn or a time-traveler, otherwise it would not be so powerful. Not to mention, there are quite a few people who agree with this point of view, and they have put forward various arguments and proofs one by one.
That night, Zheng Lu was also watching this show, and when he heard this answer, he almost didn't squirt out all the food in his mouth. I didn't expect to be crossed, what an honor. But the next point of view really surprised Zheng Lu.
"I think the half-otaku immortal is just an ordinary person, and he must have acquired some kind of super technology before he started to create an anime empire. This is also a common episode in novels, and the other half-house immortal's style of acting makes me feel more naΓ―ve, so I think it's very likely that the half-house immortal is just an otaku! β
Oh my god, don't you talk so much nonsense, okay? Zheng Lu was really scared enough, and even the glasses girl and the fox Xiaoxuan giggled, and shouted 'You got it right'.
"Still laughing, the old bottom has been exposed!"
Zheng Lu actually thought it was quite funny, and he began to laugh after speaking. He is not afraid, this kind of statement without evidence has no effect at all except to increase the mystery of the half-house immortals. As long as your identity is not revealed, everything is just speculation.
In the end, the program team voted on several answers, and the two answers, the Reborn and Super Technology, tied for first place. Several foreign youths are also interested in this, and have been asking what it means to travel through rebirth and super technology.
"It seems that the number of foreign tourists in the half-house town is also increasing."
Zheng Lu saw that the proportion of foreigners in the camera has increased a lot compared with before, and it seems that with more and more international publicity for Banzhai City, the possibility of Banzhai City becoming an international city is also increasing.
"That's, I built a city, and it's absolutely world-class."
The glasses girl is also very satisfied with her masterpiece, especially since there are already some hometowns similar to her in this city, so she is full of a sense of belonging and honor. At this time, if someone dares to slander the half-house city, or is unfavorable to it, I am afraid that she will not hesitate to take action.
"By the way, the garrison of the half-house city is quite tight, and a series of disasters such as fires can be quickly controlled. But how do you defend against this natural disaster? For example, what kind of land, tsunami or whatever, and then if there is that blind person throwing missiles here, what do you do? β
Zheng Lu just said casually that according to China's current military strength, especially the various armaments provided by the glasses girl, it can be easily intercepted even if it throws missiles. But this natural disaster is really terrifying, as if there is no natural disaster in various technologies.
"You're a little glasses and a crow's mouth! But natural disasters are not terrible, the most terrible thing is [***], especially when your world is still in an era of self-governance, if one can't get a war, then it's really over. β
The glasses girl doesn't seem to care about natural disasters, she should have a way to deal with it, but she is quite afraid of war. Because in her information, the horror of all-out war is described in great detail, and after coming to this world, the glasses girl also saw the tragic situation of the two world wars on the Internet, so she is full of disgust with war.
So when the glasses girl asked Zheng Lu to hand over those armaments, she was in favor. Because it is impossible to eliminate war, the world here has not yet developed to that point. Glasses girl thinks that if she wants to protect herself, it is the best way to arm her country as much as possible.
"Don't worry about glasses girl, isn't this the dungeon built for this? It's a place that can withstand a nuclear strike. If war breaks out, we will hide directly in where we are safe. β
It was a time of peace, so it was hard for Zheng Lu to imagine what the war would be like. However, when the glasses girl built the half-house city, she took this problem into account, so she built a grand dungeon. The political axe also knew about this matter, and they couldn't laugh or cry at that time. This half-house immortal is so careful that he actually builds nuclear fortifications, and he really has nowhere to spend it.
The dungeon has several floors, the last of which is the food crop layer, which can be used to grow various crops such as rice and jade trees, and there is plenty of water and food. Finally, the second floor is a warehouse, which stores a large amount of grain that can be stored for a considerable period of time. The other levels are where the population lives, and even if the whole city goes down, there is absolutely no problem.
The same place that controls these places is the network center of Hantaku University, which will notify the whole city if there is a change, and enter the dungeon through the entrance of the respective building. This entrance is usually closed, controlled by the glasses girl, and no one can open it.
"It's so spectacular, so even if 2012 really comes, I'm not afraid?"
Last year, when he knew about the glasses girl's dungeon plan, Zheng Lu was also amazed, this glasses girl was really thoughtful, but I seriously doubted that it would be used one day.
"Even if you don't need it, there's no guarantee that your children and grandchildren won't use it. It's better to repair more back roads now when you have time than to be helpless at that time. β
"It's really troublesome, you might as well build a spaceship directly, how safe it is!"
", the spaceship is a product that has just appeared even in the world on my side, it is an absolute secret, how could I have that kind of information?"
Zheng Lu originally thought that if the glasses girl had this ability, maybe she would have the opportunity to go to outer space in this life, but now it seems that there is no hope.
"Speaking of which, little glasses, why did you suddenly remember to ask this today?"
The glasses girl is really strange, the dungeon has been repaired, Zheng Lu came to ask the east and west, I really don't know what I am thinking. In the past few days, Zheng Lu has nothing to do and runs straight to the dungeon, looking left and right there, and taking some photos, which seems to be very interested.
"Ah, nothing. It's the game I'm working on, and it's called The Last Ark. β
Then Zheng Lu explained to the glasses girl the game he was making, this game is about an apocalyptic period, the Earth Political Axe did his best to build a super giant spaceship, and took millions of people to the universe.
During this period, technology was very advanced, so they did not have any problems with food and water, so they could search for possible planets to survive in the long universe. But some people can't stand the loneliness of being in the universe, and they begin to have all kinds of negative feelings, such as irritability, hatred, conjecture, despair, and so on.
This sentiment made them very distrustful of the improvised fleet axe, and believed that there was no possibility of survival. Dominated by desperation, they went berserk, unwilling to accept the counseling of a psychiatrist, and began to destroy the spaceship on which everyone depended for survival.
To this end, the Fleet Political Axe has set up a special operations team, called Lone Wolf, to deal with these people. And these people who have lost their minds have also formed a team called Divine Punishment. The player takes on the role of a member of the lone wolf squad and engages in a series of encounters with Divine Punishment. Then there's the wrecking show of the Divine Punishment Director, and the player must work with his teammates to stop all kinds of sabotage.
The main story is explained in a plot like an RPG, but when it comes to combat, it switches to a third-person shooter. There are two characters that players can choose from, one male and one female, and the plots are also different.
Zheng Lu's idea is like this, but after Yang Yan's improvement, the whole story becomes singable and crying. The emotional entanglements of various characters in the play and the fierce collision of beliefs make the game sublimated to a new level. Therefore, Zheng Lu had to admire Yang Yan, who deserved to be engaged in novels, and teasing the players' tears was like playing.
Especially if you choose the male or female protagonist at the beginning, there will be many mysteries left in the game, and only by playing through the two versions can you get the final answer by comparing the two. This meticulous plot arrangement shows Yang Yan's current skills.
"No wonder you went to the dungeon, it turned out to be filming footage."
Only then did the glasses girl understand the reason why Zheng Lu went to the dungeon, and her feelings were that she regarded it as a corner of the spaceship.
"Hehe, it's rare to have something to learn from, how can you not make good use of it?"
There is a teacher in Zheng Lu's team who is a comic book teacher who is a character designer, and is responsible for all kinds of original paintings, and he needs something for reference, so Zheng Lu remembered this basement. Then I touched the scene and fell in love, so I chatted with the glasses girl about the topic of the end.
"Okay, I'm going to work tomorrow. Good night, glasses girl, Xiaoxuan. β
Zheng Lu saw that the time was almost up, so he opened the folding sofa and turned it into a bed, and then slept on his stomach. And at this moment, a peculiar visitor is preparing to visit the half-house city.
