Chapter Twenty-Seven: Let's Blow Mutual Business First!

The finals and the party were held in a star-rated hotel, and after Liu Neng entered the venue, he immediately felt a warm atmosphere, which can be said to be crowded. Feiliu Creative Entertainment is worthy of being born in entertainment, and the service staff in it are all beautiful girls who are super smooth.

When a few of them arrived, they hadn't eaten at noon, and they were led by the greeter to the restaurant for a casual meal. Although it was a light meal, it was quite hearty. Liu Neng kept refreshing some information in his mind, and tried his best to recall some famous game producers and game companies in this world from those memories.

Most of the finalists this time are the works of game companies with a large size, and of course they are not just here for the prize money. If you can enter the top three, or even the top ten, you can jointly develop the subsequent version with Feiliu Creative Entertainment. Some games even have a dome that participates in the competition.

Developing games with Feiliu Creative Entertainment, in a sense, is a tight grip on the thighs, which is definitely a good opportunity for those game companies that are not large.

The restaurant is not said to be crowded, but there are a lot of people. The vast majority of them are gamers, but there are also some gamers and game critics.

At this time, it is just lunchtime, and the restaurant is the most crowded at this time. Many players and people in the game industry are familiar with each other on the Internet, and they just take this opportunity to "rush" here, and some people just see each other late.

After eating, many people simply take out their laptops and play games here. There was such a table of people next to Liu Neng, who was discussing the matter of this competition, "So, who do you think will win first in this creative competition?" ”

"It's hard to say, but I think there are opportunities for Xianxia Love and the Legend of the Three Kingdoms."

"But I think the horn, that one doesn't step on the white block has a better chance!"

When Liu Neng heard the name of his game, his ears immediately pricked up, and several other people also reacted similarly, and their eating movements were slow.

"I don't think so, don't step on a game that is so big as a white block, as far as I am concerned, this kind of game should not be called a game at all, it should not be selected for the competition."

"What you're saying is a bit extreme, isn't it?,Why isn't the white block a game?"

"I think a game should at least have a plot, have a mission, be able to fight and PK, but this don't step on the white block and there is nothing, if you want me to say that this is a random thing made by an ignorant person who doesn't know what comes out of the horns, it can't be called a game at all."

"You're a bit narrow-minded when you say that!" After listening to it for a long time, Liu Neng finally couldn't help it.

A few people at the table next to him involuntarily turned their heads to look over, and Liu Neng said to the person who was making a lot of nonsense, "I actually have a feeling that now everyone can't explain the game theory clearly, and I'm afraid no one can explain the word game clearly." ”

"Tell me, then, what is a game?" The man must have been unhappy that he had been denied.

"I believe that a game should be a simulation, a simulation of the rules of the world invented by man, and derive pleasure from this simulation. However, because the world is so complex, most games can only simulate one or a few of the rules. ”

After saying this, not only a few people on the other side, but even Xu Jiaojiao and a few of them also fell into deep thought, how should the game be defined, as if no one had given an accurate and complete definition now.

Liu Neng said that the game itself is a kind of simulation, a simulation of the rules of the world invented by people, for example, the game "Don't Step on the White Block" is actually a simplified simulation of the piano; Another example is "Happy Farm", which is still in development, is a simulation of a plantation; For example, "The Seven Heroes of the Warring States" is a simulation of the era of the Warring States period, a simulation of war. But of course, it is impossible to completely restore these simulations, and can only simplify or even destroy most of the rules, leaving only one or a few rules.

It seems to be very accurately defined.

"In fact, when we look at a game, whether it is a good game or not, the most important thing is to see whether it is fun enough, not to see whether it has a big world view and a perfect plot. You say, for Tetris, or don't step on white blocks, this kind of little game, what does he want to do with the worldview? ”

"But......" The man stopped talking, and although he couldn't find the words to refute him for a while, he always felt that something was not quite right.

"Brother, you have such a deep understanding of games, are you a practitioner in the game industry? Game planning? The other man hurriedly asked.

Liu Neng nodded yes, and the man hurriedly asked again, "Then did you participate in the creative competition this time?" Invited by official invitation? ”

"You'll know when the time comes, let's sell it first." Liu Neng said, and continued to eat.

After eating, they continued to return to the main venue, but after a while, someone came up to them, "Brother, get to know me?" ”

"You are?" Liu Neng was a little surprised, and thought about it seriously, he should have never seen this person, he was unknown, and he was just a small miscellaneous soldier in today's game industry, who would rush to know him?

The man smiled, "My name is Zheng Laiji, I just heard your discussion in the restaurant, and I think what you said makes sense, brother." By the way, I am a participant in this creative competition, and my work is "Xianxia Love". ”

Liu Neng raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect to see the deity here, "Hello, hello, my name is Liu Neng." ”

"Liu Neng? Oh, you're the indie game producer, the producer of Don't Walk on Blanks? Zheng Laiji scratched his head embarrassedly, "Just now I was thinking about whether to pull you into our studio." ”

Liu Neng smiled, "The game "Swordsman Love" is very good, and the story is very touching, I like it very much." In domestic games, this kind of theme has not been done well before, either paying too much attention to Xianxia itself, or paying too much attention to fighting, but it has not been able to truly inherit the spirit of Xianxia. ”

Zheng Laiji's eyes lit up, and this sentence said that his heart was in trouble, and he couldn't help but look at Liu Neng even higher, "You're right, I have always thought that the theme of Xianxia in traditional Chinese culture should be the most important thing to convey to players the meaning of the words 'What is Xianxia'." In the past, there were several Xianxia-themed games in China, but I always felt that it was a little bit uninteresting. So I and a few friends, friends who are interested in the theme of Xianxia, set up the Oriental Xianxia Studio, mainly to make Xianxia games. ”

"It's quite interesting, a game with this theme, it's actually quite difficult to do well. In fact, I think that China's Xianxia is still human at heart. Xianxia, first is people, some people's seven emotions and six desires, some people's love and hatred, and then Xianxia. Using this idea to interpret Xianxia, there may be some different stories. Liu Neng said some of his feelings about making games before, which can be regarded as a discussion with each other.

"You're so right!" Zheng Laiji was a little excited, "I think your game is a game like "Don't Step on the White Block", but I didn't expect you to have a high attainment in the game theme and plot!" Admire, admire! ”
