Chapter 236: Jianghu

As a martial arts fan and game fan, Qi Fei had the idea of developing a classic martial arts online game similar to "World of Warcraft" for a long time, and has also written countless settings.

It's just that the world he designed is too large, and some investors were more interested in it in the past few years, but in the past two years, with the rapid growth of the mobile game market, the growth of PC client online games has stagnated, and the setting he wrote has gradually become unpopular.

If it weren't for Yang Lin's idea of developing a large-scale online game this time, Qi Fei wouldn't have thought about taking out these things at the bottom of the box at all.

It is precisely because of the accumulation of the previous few years that Qi Fei's actions are very fast, and a week later, he put a plan for a martial arts online game called "Jianghu" on Yang Lin's desk.

This game synthesizes all the characters of Mr. Jin Yong's fourteen martial arts novels, and to some extent it can be regarded as another "The Legend of Jin Yong's Heroes".

"The Legend of Jin Yong's Heroes" is a DOS Chinese role-playing game developed by Baodao Heluo Studio in the nineties of the last century, which is a fairly popular classic game.

The game is adapted from fourteen martial arts novels written by Jin Yong, and players can go on adventures with the characters in Jin Yong's novels. The degree of freedom in the game is very high, and most of the characters, martial arts, items and plot development are very loyal to Jin Yong's original work.

Qi Fei's "Jianghu" retains the advantages of Jin Yong's heroes, and greatly optimizes the plot and characters, especially the application of artificial intelligence technology, so that players can not only interact with the game characters, but even greatly restore the characters of the main characters in the novel.

Of course, the changes are not without them. The biggest change is in the background of the game.

In this game, players are in a world that is much larger than King's martial arts. The fourteen books of Jin's "Flying Snow Shoots White Deer in the Sky, and the Laughing Book Hero Leans on the Blue Duck" are only small worlds attached to the main world. Players can adventure in the small world composed of each novel, from which they can obtain various martial arts cheats and apply them to the large world of rivers and lakes.

If the player can get the favor of the protagonist in the novel, he can even bring him into the big world, and there is no problem in adventuring together.

The mission plot in the game will also evolve freely by the game through artificial intelligence technology, and every player who enters the game has its own independent plot in one of them, and even ordinary NPCs have their own stories.

In order to ensure the balance of the game, each martial art in the game has several bottlenecks. Even if it's a peerless discipline, it will take you five or six years to cultivate it to the extreme, let alone so many divine skill cheats.

"Mr. Yang, according to your requirements, our game can accommodate up to 10 million people online at the same time, mobile terminals, PC terminals can be logged in at the same time, and it has also laid the foundation for the future upgrade to holographic display, but in this way, the investment cost is high. Whether it is the server or the development difficulty, it is several times higher than that of ordinary online games. ”

Yang Lin smiled and said: "Qi Fei, don't be afraid of too much difficulty, artificial intelligence technology is gradually popularizing." In the future, the game industry will also usher in a big change, although our "Jianghu" is only a test of the waters, we must make it a benchmark for online games in the era of artificial intelligence. Just like Legends is to a 2D game, World of Warcraft is to a 3D online game. No matter what difficulties were encountered during the development of this game. You can always report it to me and I'll try to help you out! ”

"Yes. Mr. Yang, I promise to complete the task! ”

Seeing Qi Fei leave with an excited face, Yang Lin shook his head with a smile.

He doesn't care how much money online games can make him, although the game market has grown strongly in recent years, and China's annual game market has exceeded 100 billion yuan, but compared to the profits earned by mobile phones, CPUs and operating systems, the profits on the game side are not so high.

However, the development of online games can greatly improve the technical strength of Matrix Digital in the fields of CG special effects and animation design, which is very helpful for Matrix Digital to lay out the future virtual reality network.

This is also the original intention of Yang Lin to enter the online game market.

After Qi Fei left, Yang Lin said hello to Bai Hua directly and went home from work early.

This morning, Lin Qingya and Yang Ying just came from Shencheng with good news, they have negotiated an agreement with Wang Tao, the founder of DJI Drone Company, to acquire DJI Drone Company for 500 million US dollars, which far exceeds Yang Lin's scheduled 35% requirements, and Yang Lin naturally wants to treat these two beauties well.

Just a week ago, Lin Qingya, as the president of Transwarp Technology Co., Ltd., went to Shencheng to meet with Wang Tao, the founder of DJI drones, hoping to negotiate financing and shares.

At first, Wang Tao didn't take Transwarp Technology and Lin Qingya's arrival to heart, after all, such a yellow-haired girl in her twenties dared to mention a financing case worth hundreds of millions of dollars, which made him more or less despised.

However, after seeing Lin Qingya herself, Wang Tao's attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn.

Lin Qingya had been exposed by the media before, and after arriving in Shencheng, she was quickly recognized.

Someone reminded Wang Tao of Lin Qingya's specific origin, and Wang Tao no longer had the heart to despise him.

This is not only because of Lin Qingya's family background, but most importantly, Lin Qingya is Yang Lin's woman!

What kind of person Yang Lin is, Wang Tao is naturally very clear.

It is he who single-handedly opened the door to the era of artificial intelligence, and for DJI drones, Matrix Digital can be said to be the lifeblood of the future development of DJI drones.

After all, artificial intelligence technology is about the future of drones.

In March of this year, DJI launched the Matrice 100 open flight platform and the DJIGuidance visual sensor navigation system, which provide a development platform for developers to innovate in the field of drones.

Not long after, DJI also officially released the "Magic Calculation" Manifold on-board computer.

It will be seamlessly compatible with the Matrice100 flight platform and the DJI Onboard SDK, which will fully optimize the real-time data analysis capabilities of drones and greatly improve computing efficiency, helping developers build more powerful drone industry applications.

However, with the introduction of the Mix instruction set CPU and matrix language, DJI quickly realized the importance of these two technologies for drones.

Not long ago, at the World Internet Conference and the Matrix Language Developer Conference, Wang Tao also sent people to negotiate, hoping to build the Mix architecture CPU and the operating system written in the matrix language inside the next-generation airborne embedded computer system, so that it not only has powerful image processing capabilities, but also can efficiently process parallel tasks.

In addition, airborne computers can also be widely used in artificial intelligence fields such as computer vision and deep learning, so that drones have environmental perception, object recognition and real-time response capabilities

It even offers USB, Etheet, HDMI, Mini-PCIe, UART, SPI, and I2C interfaces for connecting sensors, displays, and more. It also provides a custom interface and M100 connectivity to receive and process images from the M100 camera in real time, providing developers with a wealth of options.

According to Wang Tao's idea, this on-board computer using matrix language and Mix chip will open a new era of intelligent flight platform, as an intelligent collaboration hub connecting ground equipment and flight terminals, and provide rich solutions for complex industry applications.

But what made Wang Tao helpless was that when he sent someone to contact Matrix Digital, he never got an exact answer.

It wasn't until Lin Qingya's sudden appearance this time that Wang Tao realized that Yang Lin had actually taken a fancy to the drone market.

Now, Wang Tao is sitting on wax!

The artificial intelligence technology in the hands of Matrix Digital is too important, and if DJI rejects Transwarp's financing agreement, it means that it rejects the door to cooperate with Matrix Digital.

But if you don't agree, according to the current monopoly position of Matrix Digital in the field of artificial intelligence, DJI's prospects are really worrying.

Matrix Digital can re-acquire or create its own drone brand, neither of which is good news for DJI. (To be continued......)
