Chapter 31 Databases
This kind of thing is widespread in this world. In the short term, comprador can indeed improve living standards.
However, in the long run, the existence of comprador and office management will suppress the development of the country's productive forces. If, if you want to live a comfortable life, you must continue to buy foreign products, and the only things that your own country can exchange for these advanced things are industrial primary goods, or agricultural products, and all kinds of raw materials.
The same is true of the gaming industry. If you adapt to advanced foreign games, you will inevitably look down on your own games. If domestic game talents want to have a good working environment, they will inevitably go to work in foreign game companies.
Just like China a hundred years ago, the best benevolence is basically abroad, and they all work abroad.
Under such circumstances, it is basically impossible for the entire Chinese game industry to reach the level of foreign countries.
On the one hand, the huge benefits generated by games cannot be obtained by the domestic industry, and even if they do, it is difficult for anyone to have the patience to develop their own games.
The other is the loss of high-end talents, which is not a good thing. Because, without these people, even if you have money, you want to make a good game. It also takes long enough to train a lot of people who like to play video games.
Lin Yan really likes video games, otherwise, the current Chiba game will not be the path and trajectory it is now.
If it is to make money by dying, then there are many means to make money. For example, if you open a box like a card game, you can pit as much as you want.
Although, most people know rationally, in fact, the matter of opening the box is not reliable. It's like buying a lottery ticket, it's a way to put your fate on someone else.
But while most people's reason is more guided. However, the desire that comes from another part of the person can easily drive people to open boxes and buy lottery tickets. Why wouldn't others get hit? That's because they're stupid, they're not that kind of stupid, of course they can get hit.
Of course, people who think like this are generally not very smart. In the eyes of people who are similar to them, they are actually fools.
Lin Yan has been focusing more on indie game producers recently. It's like when commercial films are booming, there are still enough people who pay attention to those independent films and literary films.
It's not that these things are necessarily better than commercial movies or big commercial games. Rather, because of these things, what kind of things will eventually settle down and precipitate in commercial movies and commercial games.
Seriously, though, it's not too easy to find a fun game.
Most indie games can only be described as garbage. Those who are specially trained may be slightly better, because they know some of the basic rules of the game. Even if the game isn't fun, the flaws aren't obvious.
However, there are indie games that are clearly made by game enthusiasts. They may have only read a few superficial tutorials and not bothered to read them carefully.
Because, the first time they look at it, they think, "Oh, this thing is so simple, it's not difficult at all, what am I doing with the tutorial." ”
I believe that many people have felt this way when they were in school. However, often the part that you consciously know is deliberately let you know by the lecturer.
As the old saying goes, it's about learning from the past. Of course, the specific meaning is not particularly accurate. To be precise, it is to take the known information to lead the unknown knowledge.
In this way, there can be a better transition, and it can be easy for people to accept. Otherwise, it is very unreasonable to explain trigonometric functions with a person who doesn't even know words. And with a person who only knows trigonometric functions, to talk about what quantum mechanics is.
I guess in the end all I can say is to tell stories, such as stories about Schrödinger's cat.
Some of them, even hearing the law of gravity, say, "Oh, isn't it just an apple that smashed Newton's head, what's the big deal?" ”
For scientists, it also seems to be indifferent. By extension, they are actually disdainful of all professionals.
Because, the basic principle of expertise, most of the time is not very complex. However, it would be naïve not to treat the content of their work as a problem.
Based on this situation, many people think that professionals are stupid forks and come by themselves. In the end, they all evolved into the kind of civil science that almost everyone fights.
Of course, the group of civil science not only thinks too much about it, but also knows too little. There are also those who really don't have the conditions to have a formal education.
After all, education is a very expensive resource. The education that most people receive is not actually a high-end education.
Even so, if there is no state subsidy, most of them will not be able to afford to go to school.
Of course, the state also has a lot of money, and it is impossible to say that I can print as much as I want. If you really want to print as much as you want, and if you can solve the problem, then there will be no economic crisis in the capital-capitalist world.
As a result, in some countries, there is a major regression in public education when certain people have died.
Even if it is the beacon of the human world, the United States, in fact, this is not the case. Only a few can afford to go to college, and the few who go to college are basically burdened with tens of thousands of dollars in debt after finishing college.
However, even if this is not a very good thing, there are many people who say that this is the superiority of the United States.
These people are very skillful at reversing black and white. They have deceived many people because of this. Many people who don't know the truth really think that the moon in the United States is relatively round.
Of course, many of the people who do this kind of thing, most of them have a stake. For example, some of these people are studying abroad, and some are going abroad to work.
They portray America as a beautiful paradise from which they can naturally profit.
In fact, there are many such people on the Chiba game chat software now. However, even if Lin Yan didn't like them, there was no good way to stop their behavior.
In fact, the official of a certain country supports such a voice. Because, basically, they are learning from the United States in its entirety.
Even family members were sent to the United States in batches. If the interests are related, they are more relevant.
After all, in many countries, if you use your public office, you seek many benefits that you should not seek. It's a mistake to make. And putting this money abroad is obviously a good way.
Of course, in addition to the United States, there will also be so-called Swiss banks or something.
However, Lin Yan's current money, which is basically his salary, is stored in the bank that cooperates with Chiba Games. In fact, the money in his pocket, even if he wanted to squander, would take quite a long time.
However, he didn't know what to do with the money. If he travels, most of the time, he doesn't actually have to spend money.
There are even many tourist spots that welcome Chiba game-goers. Because, whether it is a reality show under Chiba Games Global Entertainment, or the headquarters of Chiba Games.
If in the show, or in the game, such an attraction is mentioned. Even if it is, there is only one in a thousand people who can really go, and there is only one in ten thousand. However, with the coverage of Chiba Games and Chiba Games Global Entertainment Horror, this attraction can also be transformed from deserted to very popular in an instant.
Of course, Chiba Games hasn't done this too many times. Because, this is equivalent to an endorsement of this attraction.
If, something dangerous or unpleasant happens at this attraction, it will definitely not be counted as much as the Chiba game.
The reputation of Chiba Games is not ruined in this way. It's not worth it.
It's the same thing that Chiba Games won't make garbage games to damage their own leftovers.
After all, in this world, the most valuable thing is not actually a product. It's fame. Of course, reputation is something that can be corrupted very quickly.
Not much, for example, the next-generation console of Chiba Games, which only sells an empty box, can sell millions of copies. However, after the sale is over, will anyone still buy the Chiba game things?
The Atari of the Atari crisis is actually selling reputation. At that time, the American video game market was so hot that any game, as long as it was launched, it could be sold.
So, they miscalculated the level of patience of the players. Even with the reputation of "Alien" and Spielberg as a guarantee, in the end, the game is not a violent death.
However, although Chiba Games thinks that it is not good, even if it is completed, it will not be introduced to the market. However, it does not mean that Chiba Games, all the games produced, are impeccable to perfection.
Because, before Chiba Games was a company that made games, it was still a platform company. In order to maintain this platform, they have to make many compromises.
These compromises are necessary compromises. It was also a compromise after a struggle. Otherwise, the games on the Chiba game platform now, I really don't know what kind of games they are.
Chiba Games is strict with themselves, and it also gives them a basis for being strict with other manufacturers. Be strict with yourself and others. This leaves everyone with nothing to say.
Otherwise, if you treat yourself leniently and others strictly, then it won't take long for others to make trouble.
It's like leading troops to fight, you can't fish and meat by yourself, and then let the soldiers under you work hard.
Although, these seemingly, there is no difference. However, this is the same as reading and literacy, in fact, when it comes to serious warfare, it is crucial.
The treatment is the same, so that the soldiers can have no grievances and work together. Learning cultural knowledge can enable all soldiers to understand the instructions given by their superiors. In this way, the execution will also be very accurate, thus improving the results.
Of course, it's basically impossible to do such a thing. is like the author of "A Long Journey to the West", when he sees a certain army of a certain country, even if he travels dozens of miles during the day, he still has to learn cultural knowledge at night.
Even after fighting during the day, he had to read and write at night. It seemed impossible to him. Because, it takes a lot of will, how much endurance, to be able to do this, and still learn cultural knowledge.
During this time, Lin Yan was actually studying those histories. Because, he wanted to make a shooting game. A game that can make people feel immersed enough.
Although, backstory, most of the time, doesn't seem to be very useful. For gameplay, there is no impact.
But is that really the case?
If this is really the case, whether it is "Warcraft", "StarCraft", "World of Warcraft", or "Overwatch", there is a background.
Even, even "Super Mario Bros." has a background, and the background is Mario saving the princess.
Because, in many cases, the background represents a reason. Otherwise, why would Mario go all the way?
If there is nothing wrong with not moving forward, then why should we move forward.
Although Lin Yan wants to construct a fictional world and perform one battle after another. However, if there is no historical prototype and you want to fabricate it out of thin air, it is basically a dream.
What Lin Yan thinks about now is still in the state of prototype conception. He took the tablet and drew some sketches.
In fact, now Chiba Games has not only established an electronic database, but can query all kinds of information. There is also a physical database.
It's a physical repository of things that can't be digitized. For example, the texture of some clothes cannot be described in words. Therefore, Chiba Games stores real fabrics.
Even, the collection department of Chiba Games also has a collection of tanks. Although, they haven't made a game with a tank as the main character.
Lin Yan wanted to make "World of Tanks" with tanks as the protagonist, but as a Japanese identity, it was actually more embarrassing to do this kind of war theme.
It's like a game like a ship girl.,After it was created.,It's already sprouted like this.。 It's not like anyone is saying that there is some kind of awakening in Japan.
In fact, there may be, there may be, there may not be. Because, if there is no at all, then this product, there is no soil for survival. It's not going to be a hit.
But it is not true to say that there is, because in reality, there is indeed no one waving the flag and shouting. Perhaps, this thing is actually a kind of stone throwing?
After all, after all, Japan became a de facto colony of the United States for decades after the war, and in fact, many people have already had many complaints.
No matter how developed and advanced the United States is, only those who have experienced it will feel the pain. (To be continued.) )
