Chapter 243: A New Game
Bi Xia didn't know what to say to Bi Chang, he could only support, and Bi Chang only needed support. This night, Bi Xia's house was full of laughter.
The next day, Bixia left home, and instead of coming to the crew, he went to Global Village Games. After the training of the two crews, Zhu Jianye and Huang Xu are now growing at a rapid speed in directing skills. In the past, in other crews, they were at most just a miscellaneous worker, and all they could learn was how to arrange the filming process of the crew, etc., and they could only learn the real directorial techniques through visual inspection, and they could only watch them from afar, which was not real.
The profession of director requires talent, and talented people can always shoot content, ideas and pictures that others can't express, but no matter how good the talent is, it also needs to be supported by skills and experience. With Bi Xia, they really came into contact with the knowledge of how to direct, and many things they couldn't learn in textbooks in school. When Bi Xia was away, many unimportant scenes were completed by them together, and Bi Xia also planned to wait until they were filming the sequel to "I Am Special Forces" to be the director.
This time, Bixia came to the global village mainly for the development of the next game and the planning of the company's next move.
Coming to the company to greet Bi Xia was warm applause, for this nationally renowned star boss everyone admired in their hearts, no one knows Bi Xia's role in the company better than them.
From "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" back then, to DQC1, the world's top game engine, to "StarCraft", the pinnacle real-time strategy game that swept the country, Bixia has brought too many miracles to the company.
Back then, their game company, including Huang Xiaoli, game programmers and clerks, was only about a dozen people in total. The company does not have any products, and the development is a stand-alone RPG game that no one is involved in China, and everyone's mood at that time can be imagined.
Unexpectedly, the company ushered in a gorgeous transformation, and they have now become veterans. Nowadays, there are more than 30 people in the two game design departments alone, as well as the art team, dubbing team, marketing department, etc., the company's structure is becoming more and more complete, with more and more personnel, and the results are also very gratifying. With "Sword of Fairy" and "Interstellar", two of the country's top games, Global Village is now well-known in the industry, in addition to fame, what makes them feel the most is the change in the company's temperament. This is the confidence that comes with success.
And all this is inseparable from Bi Xia, whether it is the game engine or the game itself, it is done under the leadership of Bi Xia, although Bi Xia is not often in the company, but his role affects the company everywhere.
"Okay, okay, don't do it like the leader inspecting, instead of patting me on the back, it's better to pat your Mr. Huang on the back more, he has more authority than me." Bi Xia smiled and laughed with everyone. attracted everyone's good-natured laughter, although Bi Xia is the boss and a star, he really doesn't have a little shelf, as long as the work can be completed. Bi Xia never demanded of them, and even could play with them, as far as Huang Xiaoli knew, many people in the company often asked Bi Xia to learn about the stars in private.
"Filial piety. You told me that the company is going to the United States to participate in the E3 game show, right? Waiting until several of the company's executives had stopped, Bixia asked.
Huang Xiaoli nodded and replied, "Yes, this is what we all decided together." StarCraft is now very popular in China. It's definitely the most popular real-time strategy game, and no foreign product can compare with it, and it's all your credit, your "Rogue Master" is now regarded as an interstellar classic. Huang Xiaoli couldn't help but smile as he spoke, he has been watching "Rogue Master" all the time, it's really obscene, this is definitely Bi Xia's style.
"Ha Lu Ha!" Everyone laughed when they heard this, each of them had studied this book, and every battle in it was the object of their study, and they were now playing interstellar games and lewdness.
"Don't praise me, I'll blush if I praise too much." Bi Xia also said a word according to everyone's meaning, which caused everyone to laugh again. Then he nodded and said, "This decision is very good, it's time for our game to go abroad, I believe that StarCraft can not only run rampant in the country, but also conquer the world." Bi Xia's tone was sonorous and full of determination.
Everyone applauded warmly, some simply worshipped Bi Xia, and some Bi Xia was ambitious and inspired.
"By the way, is the English translation done?"
Huang Xiaoli turned on the computer and demonstrated the new StarCraft to Bi Xia on the computer, which is the interface for foreign players, all in English, this kind of interface makes Bi Xia feel very familiar, because in his memory, StarCraft is the full English version, so he almost can't help but want to play two.
Next, let's talk about some measures at the E3 Game Show, Bi Xia is a layman in this regard, he listened carefully to the report of the head of the marketing department, and felt very satisfied, professional things still have to be operated by professionals.
After everything was discussed, Bixia handed out the information in his hand, and all the executives had a copy. Seeing Bi Xia's actions, everyone was very excited, especially the two game development teams. Bi Xia did the same thing twice, once to create "Fairy Sword" and once to create "Interstellar".
CS Counter-Strike, a first-person multiplayer battle game! They are all elites in the game industry, of course they understand this term, but they are very puzzled, because this game is already available on the market.
One such form is a game developed in South Korea called CrossFire, which has a good market in Asia and is played by a lot of people, but it doesn't do well in Europe.
Seeing everyone's reactions, Bi Xia knew in his heart that Bi Xia had actually been very hesitant before taking out the CS. The hesitation is because there are already such games on the market, and at the same time, the games on the market make Bixia feel disappointed, and he does not have the exciting feeling that CS gave him in his memory.
In my memory, in 2001, a game was born, it was called "Counter-Strike", at that time, the crazy popularity of players can be described as white-hot, all Internet cafes have almost installed this game in a very short period of time, and it is even no exaggeration to say that all computers in the country, at least more than 95% of them are installed with Counter-Strike, for a time the streets and alleys were filled with fierce gunfights, and players discussed the same topic in unison - throwing guns, blind sniping, running, point killing, ballistics, etc.
It would not be an exaggeration to call 2001 and subsequent 2002 the years of Counter-Strike in computer games. Counter-Strike was the most popular game of 2001 and the years since, and in terms of market popularity, CS is much higher than SC, which Bixia can't argue. (To be continued......)
