The inside of Chiba Games is actually only a chance to visit the Chiba Game Carnival. Of course, as most people think. In fact, in such an open day, there is nothing useful to see.

The Chiba game on this day was more about acting than work. Players are either in a sacred mood or curious to visit the facilities inside the Chiba game. As for what doorways can be seen, I can't see it.

For example, Chiba Games has several in-house publications, which cover various game genres, and then summarize the entire game genre, introduce the present, and look to the future.

Lin Yan attaches great importance to these internal reference publications, which can only be read within the company and cannot be disseminated.

Of course, there is no big problem in getting it out. After all, each of these things has its own research.

Today's Chiba games actually pay a lot of attention to online games. However, due to the natural flaw of the operation of home game consoles - it is inconvenient to type and communicate. Therefore, these online games basically run on personal computers.

As for why not use voice as a means of communication. On the one hand, it is a matter of technology, and the feeling that voice communication brings to people is not particularly good.

The other is that most people don't really like to be yelled at alone.

Of course, the former can be made useful by technological innovations. As for the latter, changing users' gaming habits has always been something that Chiba Games likes to do.

After all, there are many new game genres to launch. And the old way of operation can't adapt to the games of the new era. Naturally, it is going to be reformed.

For example, virtual reality equipment, which has not been so hot recently, is not so hot. I just can't find a suitable way to operate.

The helmet is either too heavy to move, or it is light, allowing you to move the camera with the user's movements. However, the cost is no longer possible for mass production.

After all, in this era, gyroscopes are still a very advanced thing, because they are advanced, because they are new, and they must be miniaturized enough on these devices. The degree of integration should be high, so the cost is high and scary.

However, even if you can move the perspective in this way, there is still no reasonable way to operate it.

The so-called virtual reality is all about it, isn't it an immersive experience? The best way to operate is, of course, to move the machine as it moves in reality.

If you use a handle. This sense of immersion will be greatly weakened. Since they all use the handle, and it's so hot to wear a virtual reality headset, I asked why I don't take off the helmet. Back in front of the big TV, I collapsed on the sofa and played comfortably.

There is actually a relatively low-cost solution for making real actions the same as virtual actions. It is through two cameras, motion capture. Then locate it.

However, there is a not-so-good thing about this method. The delay is just too great. A delay of 200 milliseconds is enough to make people feel sluggish.

So, another way is to hold two sticks in your hand and have a few sensor patches attached to your body. However, this is a problem again, although the latency is low, but it is too troublesome, and every time you want to play the game, you have to do half an hour of equipment wearing activities, isn't this?

The biggest problem left is that it is trapped in the real space, and this virtual scene cannot be bigger.

Although in the virtual, it is possible to achieve a prairie, boundless, and be able to walk all the time.

However, when the player sees all this, he is actually in his own room, and he is about to hit the wall when he walks away.

So, is there a solution, of course there is.

Has anyone ever raised a hamster, has anyone seen a hamster ball?

It is possible to create a treadmill similar to a semicircle, and the body is held in place with elastic bands.

Then, no matter how far they go, the player is actually spinning in place.

When Lin Yan thought of this plan, he actually recalled an animal and a machine. That's donkeys and stone mills.

Donkeys don't like to spin in circles, so smart humans came up with a solution, which is to cover the donkey's face with a piece of cloth and let it grind.

It is said that a blindfolded donkey will fantasize about walking through thousands of mountains and rivers.

In this way, the player in the immersive virtual reality device is not very similar to the donkey.

It seems that the player is equal to a donkey, and the image of the donkey is not very smart, whether it is the stupid donkey in the tradition, or Ziel in Disney's Winnie the Pooh, an old gray donkey. None of them can be associated with high IQ.

As for video games doing this, what's the use, in fact, it can be said that it's useless. Just to bring excitement to the players.

If you say that a game can bring knowledge to the player, but for the same knowledge, you may read a book in five hours, and the process of the game takes fifty hours.

And the remaining forty-five hours are actually wasted. Of course, this time plays an important role in the game. It's about bringing a refreshing feeling to the player.

Therefore, all the games made by Lin Yan do not advertise themselves as educational games. Because, like those interesting science fiction novels, these games are in fact just a key, the key to open the door to the interest of players and readers, if video game players and science fiction readers really want to learn more, they still have to learn those relatively boring knowledge.

This is unavoidable. Therefore, those who feel that they are invincible in the world after playing a few games, and who feel that they have a wealth of knowledge, are just illusions of their own generation.

It's like listening to a lecture, and after listening to it, I feel that what he said is so reasonable, what he said is right, and I feel that I have gained a lot.

However, when I really bought the books that I was selling for the lectures, I went back and thought about it, and I didn't remember anything.

This technique has always been very effective, and the so-called success science is the use of such a technique.

This is the reason why Lin Yan has always looked down on the bestsellers in the airport bookstore. When I entered the bookstore at the airport, I saw that it was full of these books.

And. The modus operandi is still vulgar. What follows the bees will find the flowers, and the flies will find the toilets. Follow the tens of millions to make millions, and follow the beggars to ask for food.

After reading the books of successful people, you will be the next successful person.

This is, or that sentence, everyone is the boss, who will be the employee.

Lin Yan has also recently summarized some routines of being a boss, and the profession of a boss is all routines, not sincere at all.

They will follow the employees and scold the customers. Will follow the customer and scold the employee. While complaining to customers that business is difficult to do, while following employees to say that it is more important to get less salary and learn more knowledge than anything else.

In the end, I drove a luxury sports car, and my aunt and wife got together to play mahjong together. With a big belly, he said with a red face on the report, I am all hard work and get rich.

Is such a boss sincere, not sincere at all. In fact, these bosses all became rich in a special era and with some special methods.

The so-called murder arson gold belt. That's about what it looks like.

As for the big boss of Chiba Games, Chiba Yuki didn't go too far. Although there are a few bodyguards with big shoulders and round waists to follow them, it looks a bit pretending to be that.

However, in fact, now Lin Yan is out. It is also a lot of bright and dark whistles.

Why, because it's so important. The weight of Hayashi and Chiba Yuki for Chiba's game is too big. Can't afford to lose.

Can't eat pork without Zhang Butcher?

In fact, it is really possible to do this, there are not many companies. At the time of the founder's time, it was an incomparably high pinnacle. But after the founder's death, it has been going downhill.

It's because the successor can't afford this field. Not to mention expansion, it is impossible to even hold the original territory.

You must know that these successors are not straw bales, they are all eliminated in the cruel competition of enterprises. It can be said that they are the most powerful people in this company.

Even if it is a family inheritance, the people who assist are all very powerful people, but why can't this company continue to operate?

Whether it is the level of talent is not good, or some other reason, it is worth thinking about.

Therefore, Lin Yancai attaches so much importance to the ladder reserve of talents. I am so disgusted by this kind of thing from the school.

At the video game university hosted by Chiba Games, all the lecturers have been replaced by senior game producers from each game company.

Although the things taught may be relatively backward, the latest technology will not be handed over to them, and they must learn from the basics.

However, the most important thing is to give them a more correct world view. Listening to those pessimistic and complaining people give them lectures, even if they are good students, they can give lectures.

Of course, due to the senior game workers, except for a few in the communication department, they have relatively good communication skills. In fact, most of the people working in the game industry are relatively muna.

So, it's not easy to get them to give lectures.

Although they have a lot of things in their stomachs, they are like a teapot, their stomachs are bulging, but the spout of the teapot is like that. I can't vomit anything out of my stomach at all.

So, there was no way, Lin Yan had no choice but to go to the stage to give a lecture.

Because Lin Yan's face is really a little young now, Lin Yan has a mustache on himself, which looks a little funny.

However, the effect is still quite good, it looks much more mature, well, there is a sense of maturity in the comic.

In fact, most students are not too focused on the lecture. Lin Yan is not the kind of teacher who relies on students' grades to eat.

Instead of asking students to memorize knowledge points, it is better to tell them a joke and explain the production process of a game from the actual combat.

As for how to get these students interested?

In the first class, Lin Yan brought a lot of electronic components, and he wanted to let the students see with their own eyes how a game console was born on the podium.

That's right, he made "Space Invaders", and the steps of production are almost the same as many years ago.

The boards were also unmade, so I found a few classmates and asked them to go on stage to deal with the boards.

Watching them holding small saws and cutting wood little by little, Lin Yan felt inexplicably happy. This is youth.

Of course, this process of etching circuit boards will have to be placed in a special laboratory.

Due to the limited time for class and the need to explain, Lin Yan's "Space Invaders" took a total of two weeks to produce.

During this two-week period, many students have indeed become interested in making video game consoles, and of course, some are still not interested.

After all, not all students enter this school because they love video games.

Many of them don't really like video games and don't even play them for hours. They come to learn, just because the video game industry is hot and profitable, and they come to pick up money.

Actually, the gaming industry is the same as the internet industry. That is, the cost of communication is relatively low, so the more people a game is made, the more money it sells, and the higher the salary.

The median income of the video game industry also exceeds 50% of the median income in Japan. However, it would be wrong to say that this industry is picking up money.

After all, so many companies make games that can't be sold, and in the end it's not a bankruptcy. So many companies want to stand on their own, or die on the scale of music.

Actually, now some people think that the Chiba game is just Erer, but they did it early, and if we did it so early, we would have been invincible a long time ago.

However, they have forgotten what the video game industry was like in the first place, and what a chaotic market it was. Everything that Chiba Games has done, although it seems to be ordinary now, isn't it just doing some this, doing some that, and it's not very powerful.

However, to know that so many of the rules are made by Chiba Games, you must know that creating and imitating are not a level of difficulty.

If imitation were as difficult as creation, Japan would not have had decades of rapid development to catch up with the miracle of the United States. At that time, the United States would not have developed rapidly for decades in a row, surpassing that of the United Kingdom, a world power at that time.

Creation is equivalent to finding a way out of nowhere, and the cost of silence is too much, and the speed is not fast.

However, imitation is equivalent to following the road, although there are various problems encountered while walking. However, it is much easier than walking out of the road on your own.

After all, this is in an industrial age. As long as there is a foundation, everything will actually grow exponentially.

For example, a few years ago, communication was a problem, but now almost everyone in Japan has a mobile phone. (To be continued.) )
