Chapter 26: Speed
Some people say that the video game industry is an entertainment industry that is useless, but this is not the case.
Just like singing, it eventually gave birth to new technologies such as the record industry, the audio industry, and digital records.
The video game industry has also given rise to many useful technologies. For example, a graphics card is a device that combines many technologies. From the graphics card, it is also derived from the acceleration card in the field of specialized video or image processing.
There are also include, but are not limited to, the maturity of display technology. At the beginning, the LCD display had serious display problems, and the refresh rate was not high enough, but, after the game industry, and the catalysis of the video TV industry, the last LCD TV, has become very mature. The original defects have been completely solved, and their characteristics have also been better played.
Lin Yan's plan to start an online novel website is actually not so easy to do. Because, there is a problem here, that is, there are too few relevant professionals.
This problem is actually the same as the problem of the video game industry in the beginning. There are also a large number of enthusiasts, but how to turn these enthusiasts into professional industry personnel is a very complex and difficult problem.
Because, enthusiasts always love the glamorous side of the industry, and practitioners, in fact, not only have to do those very glamorous and cool things, but also have to face countless trivial things.
For example, what if the author suddenly stops writing a novel that has a lot of people to read. Is it to find a way to keep him writing, or is there to stop the book, or to find someone to be the gunman to continue writing this article.
In fact, there are many websites that follow the back path. Because, compared to the high remuneration of the original author, the price of the gunner can definitely be described as low.
However, there is a problem that the quality of the gunman's writing and writing style are actually quite different from the original author.
Therefore, if a website does this all the time, and after a novel has become popular, find a gunman to continue writing, then it is a big problem.
Readers will find that the novels on this site are all like this, and the novels are not worth their money, so why should they continue to do it.
Although, the dilemmas faced by web novels and video games are similar. However, Lin Yan could not have done what he did in the era of video games, to take those people and bring them from raw hands to familiar hands.
Because, the current Japanese video game industry is actually not inseparable from Hayashi. At present, in the competition between Japanese video games and European and American video games, although Japanese video games have a slight advantage.
But this advantage, as well as a lot of things about the Japanese video game itself. Actually, it was all brought by Lin Yan.
For example, the framework of the game production system in Japan as a whole. Another example is the expansion of the game genre. Those non-Chiba game manufacturers in Japan are still alive and well. That is, they are close to Lin Yan and have geographical advantages. What Lin Yan wanted to do, they could more or less hear some rumors.
Therefore, they can react in advance than European and American manufacturers.
For example, when Chiba Games was about to launch smartphones, many Japanese companies that got the information began to make targeted preparations.
Therefore, looking at the games and software of Chiba Games smartphones, Japanese games and software are much more than Japanese and American games and software.
Of course, the U.S. can be regarded as a laggard. Because, their thinking of making products is to a certain extent ahead of their Japanese counterparts.
This difference can actually be seen more easily. Now, pick up your phone and download an American app and a Japanese app, and you'll notice the difference in design between them.
Because of the operating model adopted in Japan, the application software is rarely updated, and it can be used. In the United States, a new version of the software is basically launched every month.
Although the updates are more frequent, which makes people feel a little annoying, they do solve a lot of problems in the update after update. Such an update speed is very valuable in a time when the software is still in an extensive and still needs to be continuously improved.
Although the old users find the update a bit troublesome, they are also very happy and happy to see that the areas they criticized before have been modified.
Of course, although China's per capita income level is still far from the developed countries in the world. However, there are already many people in this country who have become rich first through various methods and channels.
Although, Chiba gaming smartphones, the main focus is still games, and there is no business card. However, it has attracted many purchases from bosses.
And after the bosses took the lead by example, the employees followed suit. The king of Chu has a thin waist, and there are starving women in the palace. If there is something good at the top, it will be prosperous at the bottom. This has been handed down for several generations.
The reason why Chiba games can only be played by mobile phones will attract many bosses to buy them. Or is it because this phone is good enough to use and good enough.
Of course, they generally play with mobile phones less, and mobile phones are generally not worn on their bodies, but are placed on the secretaries they carry with them.
The business department of Chiba Games is not a dry meal, they are all professionals, and they are very sensitive in this kind of professional matter.
Therefore, they fed back a message to the development department, that is, the business field is promising, and they hope that the mobile phone department can launch a business version of the mobile phone.
As for what the business version of the phone should look like, they also gave some suggestions.
For example, the screen should be larger than 3.5 inches, and then it would be better to have a stylus. Because, in business use scenarios, there will inevitably be some times when you need to draw a picture to demonstrate. If, in the absence of pen and paper, picking up the mobile phone can solve the problem handsomely. Even if you don't use it very often, in fact, it will still make people feel the urge to buy.
The R&D department responded, they said this, saying that this mobile phone can be demonstrated in detail, and if there is anything that needs help at that time, it also needs the collaboration of the marketing department.
That's what big companies actually look like. Sometimes, it is possible that outsiders know what products are being made in the company, and people in the company are confused when they hear others asking him. Then he asked the person who inquired about him, and said, "Why don't I know what is going on, who are you asking, and if I have time, I will also inquire."
Big companies, just like a country. It is impossible for a municipal party committee, secretary, and secretary of Shanghai to know the central government's decision-making at the first time. When the central government told him that he was accepting, he would ask with a blank face, is there such a thing? I'm a secretary-secretary of the city-party committee-secretary of Shanghai, so how did I end up in Beijing?
Then, some people said that the central government had already decided.
At this time, he recited two poems, "If the country lives and dies for the benefit of the country, how can it be avoided because of misfortune and fortune."
Lin Yan sometimes wants to bring a pair of black-rimmed glasses, or a small crown like Elizabeth II. He wondered if he would be able to live a little longer. Then, there will be more time to realize your dreams.
In fact, now Lin Yan has begun to plan to start the process of virtual reality. However, due to the current level of hardware, it is not yet possible to reach the corresponding level, so some tests are more difficult to carry out.
Of course, the game's capture technology is also going on at the same time. How can it be more convenient to collect a person's expressions, voices, and all the other things?
The ideal gaming input device is actually a concept similar to hacking into a computer. That is, artificially invade the human brain, and then find a way to graft the instructions issued by the human brain into the game system. This way, you can enjoy the most high-end gaming experience.
However, to achieve such a technology, Chiba games alone are not enough.
The reason why it is not enough, is very simple, it is because this technology involves too much knowledge of bioengineering. Not only that, but there is also an ethical issue.
Because there must be a risk in doing so, and this risk will prompt enough people to oppose the experiment.
It's like cloning, why oppose human cloning, isn't it because of this.
There are many things that need to be supported by natural correctness. The public is against this matter, and even if the public does not understand anything, in fact, this matter cannot be carried out.
Scientists, on the other hand, are not under the slightest moral pressure on them. Being able to do experiments without worries is actually their ultimate dream.
However, this is never the case. Even if there is no moral pressure, the direction you want to go in is actually common sense and beneficial to humanity. However, should you have no money or no money, should you be short of money or lack of money.
So, many scientists try to tell stories to all kinds of people and convince all kinds of people to get financial support.
And if you want to convince people, a very important place is that you are alone, and you must be authoritative. 、
For example, a primary school student and an old professor, two people say the same question, and they say the exact opposite. And what the schoolboy said was right, and what the old professor said was wrong. When people don't know about this field, who are they more inclined to listen to?
Of course, it is easy to see the old professor, because the identity of the old professor carries an aura and a persuasive attribute.
Of course, this kind of attribute, in fact, in many cases, will enlighten many people.
Therefore, in China's primary school texts, the text of "two children's debates" is to tell children to avoid absolute, complete identification with authority. Everyone actually has their own reasoning when they speak. And under this principle, truth may naturally arise.
Of course, it is too much, many "civil science", even the required professional knowledge, are completely supplemented by the brains of private scientists, they are many times, they just believe in this truth too much. I think that the current experts are all fame-seeking, and only themselves are absolutely correct.
Now the special effects department of Chiba Games, in fact, sometimes, also outsources its own services. For example, if someone makes a movie, Chiba Games helps create special effects.
After all, there is only so much that can make the world's top special effects in this world. And Chiba games in Japan,In terms of labor costs,Compared with the United States,There are a lot of self-programmed software,There are a lot of self-programmed software,Save the expensive use fee,Therefore,The price is much lower than others。
Of course, this price is dynamic. Sometimes, the price of the special effects department of Chiba games is more than double that of the United States.
Therefore, people in the industry say that Chiba Games is extremely special and capricious. When I don't have a task, I come out to look for a job.
However, even so, there are a lot of people who want to make them work. Not to mention the good quality and low price, sometimes it will give them unexpected surprises.
For example, Chiba games can do special effects much faster than others.
Of course, whether to deliver in advance or not, to a certain extent, still depends on the mood of Chiba Games. However, the minimum and lowest, the delivery date of Chiba Games, will be on the day the contract is settled.
Of course, there are many people who want to explore the secret of how Chiba games can be done so quickly and so cheaply. However, no one has found it for the time being.
Most people speculate that Chiba Games' technology is basically three to five years ahead of the industry. Chiba Games did not give a clear answer to this.
In fact, if there is really strength, sometimes, many people are too lazy to convince others. You can see what we're capable of, so why are we deliberately flexing our muscles.
Under Lin Yan's organization, the production of "League of Legends" has actually come to an end. This game, because it is an online game that is constantly updated, therefore, after the production of this game, the development team will not be disbanded directly. Instead, a certain number of residents will be retained.
If you need to temporarily increase the workload, for example, make a new hero, make a new map. The personnel of the production team are dynamically added.
Even, based on a single hero, a special hero production team will be set up.
The advantage of this is to avoid the waste of personnel.
Of course, this is already the norm in the industry. Chiba Games' approach is precisely because of his correctness, which has been unanimously imitated by the majority of game companies.
If the system can be patented, perhaps Chiba Games will already make a lot of money just by collecting system usage fees.
Of course, in this world, even video games could not be patented before. Therefore, it is impossible to say how things will change. (To be continued.) )
