Chapter 80: The Global Village Game
"Bi Xia!"
"Bisha! It's really Bixia! ”
All the company's employees in the conference room opened their eyes wide, looking like they had seen a ghost, this is incredible, our big boss turned out to be Bi Xia, no wonder, no wonder the company can get the story script of "Fairy Sword", because "Fairy Sword" itself is a story designed by Bi Xia.
At this moment, whether male or female, the employees in the company are not thinking about what Bi Xia will say next, but constantly rubbing their hands, rubbing the notebook in their hands, and asking for signatures is the most important thing.
Originally, they did not have any sense of belonging to the company, but at this moment they all had a curiosity about this newborn company, and they wanted to see what Bi Xiakai's company could do.
Looking at everyone's shocked faces, Bi Xia didn't care, he could imagine the situation, he smiled and walked to the front of the conference table, and said: "Hello everyone, I think everyone recognizes me, but please allow me to introduce myself again, my name is Bi Xia, here I am not an artist, not an author, just an entrepreneur, I love fantasy, I like to tell stories, I like to write them, I like to share them with everyone, I can use songs, I can use screens, I can use novels, and of course, I can also use games." I think that games are not only entertainment, not a competition, they can also have their own unique culture, story and background, and this is what I want to share with you, and I hope you can work hard with me. ”
Bi Xia's words are not spectacle, in fact, the game can clearly convey the culture that a country or a designer wants to express to players, such as CS makes everyone familiar with the American Navy SEALs, the 9th Wing of the German Border Guards, the British SAS Special Air Service Regiment, and the French Military Police Special Service.
For example, Warcraft has brought the entire Western Magical World to the entire World Realm, so that countless players can not know the mythical characters of their own country, but they will definitely know that there are Minotaurs, gnomes, lichs, etc.
This is a kind of cultural output, even more than film and television dramas, and more than words, it can output its own cultural characteristics silently.
The people of the whole world know the magic of the West, but the myths of the Chinese people do not know about it at all, and even the traditional Chinese medicine that has been passed down for thousands of years has not been recognized by the world and has been recognized as pseudoscience, which is very ridiculous.
Bi Xia doesn't have much energy now, but if he can do a little bit for the country's cultural propaganda, he is very happy.
"Bang Bang!" As soon as Bi Xia's voice fell, the conference room remembered warm applause, everyone can come to make games, the starting point is because they like games, and Bi Xia's words are not exaggerated, there is no presumptuousness, some only have a heart that likes games, which undoubtedly makes them otaku programmers find resonance.
"Don't be busy applauding, I still have something to say, I hope you will work happily in the company, and enjoy your work. I still have a small request after the end, that is, I hope everyone can keep my identity secret, I think I have a lot of identities, and it will be more troublesome to have one more. Bi Xia shrugged his shoulders after the most coarse words, pretending to be helpless.
"Huh!" Everyone heard Bi Xia's self-ridicule, and they all laughed good-naturedly. At the same time, they also thought in their hearts: Bixia is much more real than on TV, really gentle, without a little shelf, as if he is a star worth chasing.
No one here is more excited than Jin Yuan, he is restless in the chair, so many years of decadent life, the enthusiasm and dreams in his heart have been wiped out by reality, it is Bi Xia's movies that evoke the pursuit in his heart, now not to mention how good he lives, at least his positive attitude towards life makes the old parents at home very happy. Therefore he was grateful to Bi Xia and loved Bi Xia, he was a member of the [Guard], and he was the kind of die-hard one. Now seeing Bi Xia, he can't help but dance with his hands.
Suddenly, Jin Yuan felt some silence in the conference room, and he looked up to find that everyone was looking at him, including Bi Xia. "What's going on?"
"Ahem...... boss called you just now." A colleague next to him whispered in Jin Yuan's ear.
"Ahh Jin Yuan was shocked, hurriedly stood up, and hurriedly said, "Boss, what did you call me?" As soon as he finished asking, he felt that his colleague quietly pulled his shirt and whispered: "Just now the boss asked us what suggestions we have for the company, and you raised your hand." ”
This is really faint, Jin Yuan has the urge to crash to death, he is completely immersed in excitement, so he can't help but wave his hand, where is there any opinion.
"That...... That ......" Under everyone's gaze, Jin Yuan had an idea and said: "I want to say that the company does not have its own engine, the development of "Fairy Sword" is very slow, it takes a long time for us to design it ourselves, and we don't have enough people like this to design an engine. Jin Yuan gritted his teeth and said the question he had thought of before the meeting, and he suddenly felt a lot of sweat on his body, nervous.
"Hehe, Xie Lu Xie, your name is Jin Yuan, thank you very much for your opinion. I'm here today to meet you, and I'm here to bring you a game engine. And don't call me boss in the future, you can call me Bi Xia, or call me head, I think these will be kinder. Bixia shrugged his shoulders, looking a little playful. Bi Xia had read all the employees' information before he came, and he could recognize each other by comparing them one by one in his mind.
"Hehehe." Everyone smiled kindly, and the atmosphere was more relaxed.
Bi Xia's memory can not be used for profit except for creativity, and there is no advantage in technology, but there are always accidents in everything, and the protagonist of his memory is a game programmer, and there are a lot of memories about the game, and most of them can't provide benefits to Bi Xia right away, but there are a few game engines in it, which is an unexpected joy.
In the world of memory, there are several game engines that are available to the general public and can be downloaded for free, as long as they are not used for commercial purposes. Among them, the more famous ones are Unreal Engine 3, VALVE's SOURCE, and the most popular thing for Bixia is Cryengine3.
The controversy over the world's No. 1 game engine has never ended, and many excellent game engines are on the list, and Cryengine3 is at least recognized as the top three game engines. On August 17, 2011, the company released Cryengine3 for free, and the number of downloads exceeded 100,000 in just 5 days.
Cryengine3 is the only next-gen game engine compatible with PS3, 360, MMO, DX9 and DX10. Cryengine3 does not require third-party software to handle physics, sound, and animation. In short, it's a very versatile engine. The third-generation Cryengine improves destructible environments, light effects, real-time soft particle systems, real-time dynamic global illumination, depth-of-field effects, and a host of other effects.
Next, Bixia began to demonstrate the performance of Cryengine3, its excellent performance made the programmers present stunned, such a game engine is not to say in China, but also the best engine in the world.
It is difficult for Huaxia games to go abroad, in addition to the fact that the background of Huaxia games is not accepted internationally, and another reason is because there is no company in the Huaxia game industry that is willing to calm down and make games seriously. Therefore, in the world of game engine rankings, there is no Huaxia thing at all.
The game engine that Bi Xia came up with was definitely not the existing game engine that they knew about in the world. Where did the world's top game engine come from? At this moment, Bixia became more and more mysterious in their eyes, and it also made their thoughts of taking root in the company continue to sprout.
