Chapter 243: Form and Essence, Independent of Unity
Faced with the characters to be opened and the open world, Chen Chen really hesitated.
After being silent for a while, Chen Chen sighed a little helplessly:
"This is a difficult thing to do. If it's purely for popularity, we must use the characters in the most popular movies and animations right now.
"But we have to think about balance, we have to think about the rationality of our worldview, we have to think about the harmony between the characters of different worlds and our unified worldview.
"We also have to consider that as Donghua Chinese, even if we deal with high-level people, we must add some elements of Donghua characteristics.
"Then, in order to develop our own IP, we must not only use other people's worlds, we also have to create some original characters and worldviews, which is even more complicated."
Speaking of this, Chen Chen paused slightly, thinking about how to choose the original world.
This is a matter of choice, and the auxiliary logic operations of the image crystal can help very little.
When Chen Chen was thinking, Xingchen also let out a similar exclamation:
"If you look at the setting, the characters in traditional literary works such as the Three Kingdoms and the Water Margin, because they appeared early and know more people, have received more energy, so they should have been formed a long time ago, and their strength will naturally be stronger.
"The characters in these traditional classics, and the characters in the latest popular Internet, and the characters in the house, animation, and comics, and then, the characters in the traditional Western classics, and the characters in the Western fantasy.
"Whether the energy levels of these different worlds and the strength of the characters in different worlds are kept on the same level, or whether they are divided into different levels according to the energy level of the world, this is also a question."
Regarding the question raised by Xingchen, Chen Chen didn't think of a suitable way to deal with it for a while:
"I always feel that these worlds, whether they are graded or not, are not very suitable."
Xingchen also nodded, but did not speak.
Listening to the discussion between the two, Duanmu, who had been silent, spoke:
"Miss Chenchen, Tian Tian roughly understands your settings, and then I think that we can decide these issues with a different way of thinking.
"Let's not start from our own preferences, but think about how they want to approach these things if we put ourselves in the player's shoes, in the shoes of our potential users."
Listening to Duanmu Tiantian's words, Chen Chen groaned slightly, and then his eyes lit up suddenly:
"Yes, fans of different literary and artistic works must feel that their favorite world is the strongest, and will always find all kinds of data to analyze to prove their opinions.
"Therefore, the energy level of this world, no matter how it is arranged, there will be people who are not convinced.
"So, in order to avoid this phenomenon, we will all unify the ranks and not lean towards anyone."
Xingchen hesitated slightly: "In this case, in terms of world view, can you explain the past?" ”
Chen Chen nodded and said: "What can explain the past, we said at the beginning, the energy that can be stored in the body of a single character image is limited, so it is impossible to say that the formation of a particularly early traditional literary character can kill the latest popular characters in seconds." ”
Xingchen also reacted immediately: "Yes, that's it, then let's settle it like this, the energy levels of all worlds are all unified." ”
Chen Chen nodded in agreement, indicating that he had no opinion, and then continued: "Then, the choice of the initial world also depends on the audience, right?" Choose as many viewers as possible and as many fans as possible.
"I'm going to take a look at the Denki Library, and I'll pick one or two from it as the starting world...... Well...... Let's tentatively list the forbidden books of magic and Sword Art Online!
"The catalog of forbidden books of magic can come with the settings and characters of the super electromagnetic cannon, and the Sword Art Online, which can lead to the world and characters of the accelerated world in the later stage."
Xingchen once again made a small notebook to record: "Okay, okay, I wrote it down, then according to what I said at the beginning, the world of light and animation has been determined, and now we need to choose one or two worlds that are representative of Donghua."
"According to the analysis of audience and popularity, this representative world of Donghua culture must be in the Three Kingdoms, whether it is the older generation or the young people, they are familiar with the characters of the Three Kingdoms."
"Yes, it is true that the Three Kingdoms ...... should be used" Chen Chen nodded instinctively, and then immediately shook his head again, "However, a traditional masterpiece like the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, mixed with neon anime characters, will have a strong sense of disobedience!"
"Although it is said that according to the basic setting of our worldview, the characters in any literary work can be integrated, but the contrast between the worlds with completely different styles is too great.
"The point is, if we insist on doing this, we risk being attacked by both audiences, and neither side is pleasing either.
"On this point, I have a deep understanding that some supporters of ultra-conservative traditional literature may say that we desecrate traditional masterpieces, while young people who like neon anime, some may feel that traditional masterpieces are very lo."
"Uh......" Xingchen couldn't help but laugh dryly, "That's right...... So what do we do? ”
Then the two fell silent again, thinking separately.
At this time, Duanmu said cautiously: "Say a word every day, the words of Donghua's representatives, in fact, there are other types, such as Jin Gu Liangwen's martial arts, and the most popular Internet now." ”
"Uh......" Chen Chen thought for a while, "These two are indeed good representatives, but in terms of martial arts and the Internet, the overall popularity is very high, and it can also be used."
"But in fact, with two, we face the same problem, these two types, and neon anime, the harmony is not high, and forcibly mixing will also cause many people to be uncomfortable."
Duanmu smiled every day and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you just forcibly fuse?" We make two games, one is a neon anime mixed worldview, and the other is the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the Romance of the Gods and other traditional Donghua literary worldviews. ”
After listening to Duanmu Tiantian's words, Chen Chen didn't answer immediately, and lowered his head to think about the pros and cons of doing so.
Xingchen wondered, "If we are separated, what is the point of us using a unified worldview?" ”
Faced with Xingchen's rhetorical question, Chen Chen and Duanmu were silent every day.
Chen Chen frowned and thought for a while, his lips moved slightly, and he said in a tentative tone:
"Perhaps, we can be separated in form and unified in essence."
What Chen Chen said was too abstract, Duanmu Tiantian and Xingchen didn't understand it for the first time, Duanmu Tiantian was puzzled:
"What is formal and what is substantial?"
