A few days later, Li Kewen, who got the results of the college entrance examination, was very happy.

His score is good, and if you predict it according to the scores of previous years, it is basically a certainty to enter these two universities in Qingbei.

Moreover, coupled with the honors he usually wins in various competitions, he has already entered the eyes of the admissions offices of these two top universities in the country - so when the college entrance examination results just called, the admissions offices of these two universities called.

What they said on the phone was also very brief, because there was no way to explain many things over the phone, just saying that they didn't have to rush to volunteer first, and they would talk to them in detail when they came over.

Although Li Kewen's family has also decided to let Li Kewen go to the United States to study, but this kind of thing was hung up on the phone without giving them time to explain, in fact, before the score of the college entrance examination came down, Li Kewen called Jester again and explained his thoughts and his family's thoughts.

Jester naturally has no problem.

After asking Li Kewen what he thought, he decided on the university he wanted to go to.

Of course, because it is very likely that you will go to Mars Entertainment for an internship, there will always be a lot more opportunities for internships at the headquarters, so some universities are not easy to choose, although Jester said that he can guarantee that Li Kewen can be admitted to any American university, because the person who can be recommended by him and Carmack is something that no university will refuse.

However, in the end, Li Kewen decided that it was still the best choice in California or even near Los Angeles.

Therefore, under Jester's recommendation in the end, Li Kewen chose the University of California, Los Angeles, which is also Jester's original alma mater, which is also the easiest for Jester, as a famous alumnus of this university. His influence is huge, with a fixed amount of donations every year, even lectures every semester, and sometimes even special courses for game students.

Therefore, his letters of recommendation are also particularly useful in this school.

Of course, Li Kewen still needs to prepare something that can prove his grades, such as his academic performance in high school, his teacher's comments, and preferably the recommendation of the principal of his school.

Of course. College entrance examination results are also necessary.

Because Li Kewen did not take the SAT test, although the score of this test is only used as a reference for college admission in the United States.

The principal of Jingshan Middle School was still very excited about the next letter of recommendation for one of his students, and he was still very excited about the world's most famous UCLA, he knew that Li Kewen was a very smart student, and he had a talent far beyond his peers in computers, and even a graduate of the computer science department of the university hired by the school.

is also inferior to Li Kewen in this regard.

I heard that this student of his was killed by Jester. After Lee personally made an appointment, he proposed to recommend him to go to the United States to study at a university. Of course, I'm happy to write a letter of recommendation.

Time is said fast and fast, and it is not slow, when Li Kewen went to study at UCLA, Jester contacted UCLA, and of course the other party had no opinion. Especially after checking some of Li Kewen's awards and achievements in country Z, plus the recommendation letter co-signed by Carmack and Jester.

For admitting a talented middle school student, these are also sufficient.

What is needed now is for Li Kewen to go to the United States for an interview, and everything is OK.

Naturally, Jester would have given him such an opportunity. There is no problem with the visa issue, Jester still has this influence, and the U.S. Embassy also gives Jester this face.

The cost of the round trip Jester is also all-inclusive. After he participated in the interview, Jester would arrange for his subordinates in the United States to take Li Kewen to visit Mars Entertainment's studios throughout North America, which can be regarded as letting the other party appreciate the game development atmosphere of Mars Entertainment in advance.

Even Carmack said that if he had time, he would also meet with Li Kewen, which also made Li Kewen extremely excited.

After that, things are much simpler.

Time in China also flies quickly, in fact, it is mainly a matter of domestic layout, Jester has thought a lot, he knows what kind of online games will be popular in China, but for Jester, these are irrelevant.

Because he feels that it doesn't matter whether a game is popular or not.

The key is whether the developers are really serious about making games, and whether the players really like to play.

What he wants to do in China is that he doesn't expect to be able to make a popular game, if he wants to, just copy "Fantasy Journey to the West" or "Journey to the West 2", or even directly copy the idea of "Stone Age" that has not yet come out and let people do it? But Jester found it extremely boring.

He still hopes that there can be a real team in China that is using its own ability and ideas to make games.

In the past, there was no such environment or conditions, and now Jester is creating such an environment, so that some people who really love games can create games without pressure.

In later generations, many people said that there was no way to make good games in China because there was no good environment for them to make games.

So later, the more deformed the prosperity of the domestic game market, the more Chinese games are not expected, Jester knew a friend who made games, their company made a little money by making Android games, but later, seeing the sluggishness of the entire mobile game market, so, their boss immediately cut off the entire Android game division, concentrated part of the power of common sense TVGAME, and the rest of the strength to make Apple's games.

Jester asks why.

The answer is simple, keep yourself creative and wait for the moment.

Then his friend also said that their boss was about the same age as them, and he also played Little Overlord, Arcade, Cyber Genesis, EQ since he was a child. WOW, PS2, PS3 came over, he is a person who really likes games, he said so when the company was carrying out strategic transformation, he said, he believes that the time is coming, he doesn't believe that domestic players will not be able to tell what kind of game is a good game.

In fact, the environment is created by the people in the environment.

Jester was discussing with someone. was once speechless by a passage.

That person said: The main consumption power of the domestic game industry is not those of us who will discuss it in various forums, but those mobile game players who are similar to the Foxconn factory, mobile games are their only way of entertainment, they will throw money into it, and their population base is large. And we, the vast majority of people in these forums, have not paid for the domestic game industry, we consume Blizzard's, Steam's. The games on the console, perhaps the most, are several former "domestic masterpieces". So why should domestic game manufacturers cater to us? Who are their food and clothing parents?

yes, who are their food and clothing parents?

So. Jester wants to change this situation from the source and let players know that in China. There are also people who insist on making games and making fun games.

The acquisition was a success, with little to no obstacles.

The main thing is that Mars Entertainment and Jester give enough face.

Even at first, Jinshan didn't want to agree. Even Qiu Bojun personally negotiated with the core members of Xishanju, but when the people of Xishanju said that if they did not agree, they would resign, Jinshan knew that it was irretrievable.

Jester personally met with the people of the West Hill House, all of whom were young men, the oldest of whom was not yet thirty years old.

They are all veteran gamers who have played the earliest games made by Jester, and the vast majority of them regard Jester as their idol, and their biggest ideal is to make a game as successful as Jester, so that so many people can like their games.

"I know it's hard to play in China."

Jester was also reassuring when he spoke to these people.

"I like your martial arts style game very much, I think it's very suitable for the style of MMORPG, you shouldn't be unfamiliar with the type of game, I don't have any other requirements for you, then it's to make the game fun, don't think about how to make money, everyone knows that MMORPG games require players to be online for a long time, so, many games try to do something boring, but if you want to play this game, you must often play online."

"I don't like that premise, I think the only thing that keeps players in a game should be fun."

"So, the only thing I ask of you is to be fun."

"It's that simple to make a fun game, your task is so simple, and the ability you show in "Swordsman Love" is enough for you to do this, of course, you have a lot of deficiencies or even deficiencies in technology, art, and even creativity, I can make up for you, enough to make you worry-free."

"One of the things I'm a big believer in is that as long as it's fun, no one plays it."

The people of Xishanju were also enthusiastic when Jester said.

Do fun games!

This deafening sentence also made them feel inexplicably moved.

"Actually, there is a very strange argument now, that is, the game is fun, so why care which country and which team made it?"

Jester laughed as he spoke.

"I don't agree with this notion, as a game designer, I know what it's like to be abused, insulted, and called rubbish for your work, but as some game makers, do you want the things you make yourself to be called rubbish? I don't think you want to, but how would you feel when the domestic game development environment became this kind of rubbish that was being abused, and you didn't even have the courage to say a word? ”

"We make games for gamers who can recognize us, and the people who play the games are not the same thing as the gamers, and I hope you can understand that."

"In the past, I considered a very lethal way to operate the MMORPG game genre - that is, the game is free, but it can be made by selling some props in the game, some privileges, and some things that can make a character unfair, I have analyzed it with a special team, and I call this game mode a free model."

"After analyzing it, they all said that maybe this kind of game can attract more players, and then generate more profits."

"But I said that this kind of game would take away the fun of the game."

"The most essential purpose of playing a game is to have fun, and many people say, "Monster Hunter" is so difficult, how to make players have fun? In fact, players who like "Monster Hunter", the difficulty of this game is precisely the greatest fun of this game, many people say that "Monster Hunter" does not show the monster health bar is wrong, but the lack of health bar just adds to the fun of this game. ”

"HOWEVER, THE PAY-TO-WIN WAY OF PLAYING, HE CAN MAKE A GAMER HAVE FUN, AND THE PERSON WHO CAN GET THE FUN FROM THIS MODE IS NOT WORTHY OF BEING CALLED A GAMER."

"We make games for people who are real, who know what the fun of games is, not for other people."

"You have to understand that."

"It's crucial."

In fact, this is a very common problem in the future, some people don't have enough understanding of games, they don't know what is right and wrong, they distinguish between bad and bad, in the eyes of some people, there is no essential difference between "Journey" and "WOW", "CF" is exactly the same as "CS" - but in Jester's eyes, these two types of people are completely different, they make games, they do it for gamers, not for those who just play games.

There is a big difference between the two.

Because the target group is related to the game content, you can only make what kind of game content this target group players like if you understand what your target group is.

To make a great game, you have to have a great group of players.

After half a month in China, Jester inspected several things he was most concerned about, the laying of sales channels across the country, and the computer rooms distributed all over the country, after all, to roll out a game across the country, it is essential to have computer rooms all over the country.
