Chapter 299: I applaud from the bottom of my heart
According to the memory of Chinese players, it seems that most Xianxia and martial arts games, the protagonists are usually young teenagers and girls in their teens.
But in this promotional video, it is obvious that he is a man in his twenties and thirties.
And those traditional games don't seem to be the same way......
Players are not so sensitive to those technical things, they just think that the picture is beautiful, and it doesn't look like a domestic game company...... Well, if you don't compare with the domestic ones, even if you put it in the world, you won't lose to the latest works of those famous series.
Even if it's also from the perspective of a promotional video.
There was also CCTV reporter Han Dong in the audience, who took his photographer to point the lens at the big screen.
He doesn't quite understand either, after all, he's not a professional game reporter, but judging from the reactions of those professionals on the scene, he knows the weight of this animation.
From the beginning of Ye Shenxi's waiting just now, the audience responded with warm and lasting applause, which was beyond his expectations, because it was obvious that it was sincere, and he had never seen foreigners have such sincere respect for Chinese game practitioners.
Together with the countrymen, he will also be here, and he will also be honored.
Many foreign media have also conducted exclusive interviews with Ye Shenxi before, from South Korea to the United States, and from Europe, and "Time Magazine" also published an exclusive interview, which is full of praise. But it is still in the realm of written words, and the feeling on the scene is real.
You can imagine how confident and proud the rise of China's game industry will be among the domestic gamers and even the ordinary people who don't play games through the spread of an influential brand of China's No. 1 TV program like "News Network".
Let people see that this area of ours is also going to prosper.
Just like Yao Ming made many Chinese people start watching the NBA, and more people paid attention to snooker after Ding Junhui.
This time E3 gained more than he could have imagined before coming to the United States.
……
As soon as the picture turned on the big screen, a woman dressed as an ordinary peasant woman came in the distance, looking like she was about 20 years, without powder, plain clothes, but she did not hide the fragrance of the country.
In fact, in terms of women's beauty, there is indeed a difference between Eastern and Western aesthetics, but it is really not as big as imagined, and many things are just misleading by the media.
Many of those supermodels can't get the beauty point, it is not the difference between the East and the West, but the simple difference between the fashion circle and the public aesthetics.
Even if there are some things that we don't think look good, but Americans like them very much, it is because there are other things that stand out in people, such as laughing, hearty, and convex and backward.
And many movie stars are even more beautiful than everybody.
Like the female characters in the later glass slag "Overwatch", the whole world will think it is beautiful, like it very much, and then draw a book.
It's just a matter of finding a balance.
The woman who came on the big screen was like this, with high temples and green silk, and there was a kind of classical gentleness from the East.
The woman probably told the man to go home, and the two walked side by side, walking through the streets of the town.
At this time, at sunset, the glow of the setting sun casts down, creating an atmosphere that is not real, and everyone feels that something is not quite right...... Because between the white walls and black tiles of the stone pavement of the town, there is not a single other pedestrian.
By the way, it seems that I have never seen anyone else since the beginning, how can a farmer cultivate such a large field.
The whole town is eerily quiet, but it's not sure if the promo didn't have time to do it or if it was done on purpose.
Back at home, the two sat at both ends of the square wooden table to eat, the candlelight flickered, at least the room was still warm.
Lovers of small love and warmth in the world.
That's how life should be.
At night, the two of them took a walk by the river.
Sure enough, there is a diurnal effect.
The camera gives a close-up of the water, reflecting a bright moon in the sky, and the lakeside trees that can only be seen clearly by the moonlight.
The evening breeze blew, crinkling a pool of spring water, and the reflection of the water surface also swayed, rippling layers of ripples.
At this point, it was the electronic synthesized sound effect, mysterious and ethereal, which made the whole scene even more unreal.
When the dark curtain came, and the picture brightened again, there were two more children, both three or four years old, and a white dog.
But that's just three more lives.
"Why is it still a two-person world just now?"
"How many years have passed?"
The audience was puzzled.
It was a snowy winter, and the man put on his fur coat and picked up the bow and arrow hanging on the wall, looking like he was preparing to hunt in the golden mountains.
The woman crouched at his feet and fastened his cloak.
The man also squatted down and touched the white dog lying beside him, as if to tell him to take care of his family, and the white dog yawned contentedly and wagged his tail.
"Is this dog using motion capture?"
"It's too ...... to look at the naturalness of the movements. Awesome, isn't it? ”
That's all the audience can say.
The man finally rubbed the two children in his arms, turned and walked out of the door, and when he left, his eyes changed from warm to a little misty, not so resolute.
He walked in the wind and snow, this amazing snow is unexpectedly real, as if the snowflakes hit the character and there is a collision detection, of course this is not true, that is too resource-intensive, but after a while, the character's body is indeed piled up with a layer of snow, it should also be made a special shader, changing the local color of the map.
This can make OCD sufferers satisfied with all the details!
In the forest, the man saw the top of the mountain in the distance, and when he looked at it, it was a continuous group of mountains, and the valley was surrounded by these mountains on all sides, and he could not see what kind of world the mountains were behind them.
There was some curiosity and imminence in the man's eyes, and his expression seemed to tell the audience that he wanted to go over there and have a look.
Coupled with some of the previous hints, the audience also felt that they also wanted to know the answer behind the mountain.
"Let's go, let's go." Everyone said to the characters in the video in their hearts.
The man glanced back in the direction he had come, and the cabin where his home was located was no longer visible, leaving only one direction in the red of the snow.
The university, the mountains and forests, are empty, and only this man is hesitating.
"Go, buddy."
As if hearing a shout from another dimension, the man finally made up his mind and resolutely stepped forward.
He walked for a long time, or at least it seemed like this, the snow stopped, and even melted, and some green grass was showing his head under the snow beneath his feet.
However, the distance between the mountains does not seem to have become closer at all, it is still on the far side, as if it has never changed, and the sacred snow-capped mountains have never been close to people.
It was dark again, and the man made a bonfire under the tree, and fell asleep with his back to the trunk.
"He looks so lonely." I don't know why, he has a wife, a pair of children, and a pet, but he seems to have always been alone.
The camera pans to the sky, where the stars are sparkling, like the aurora, but distorted into the shape of a swirl.
But when he woke up, he found himself back in the cabin.
The wife's face has not changed, and the white dog is still lying by the door and napping, but it is ......
A pair of children have become teenagers and girls!
Smoke rose from the kitchen, and his wife made breakfast and woke him up.
The man's eyes were full of confusion and disbelief.
He began to have more and more doubts, and so did the audience.
"How come it was so many years?"
"What has happened in the last few years?"
The doubts in the hearts of the audience are getting heavier and heavier......
The man walked to the lake again, and he was lying on a large rock, the surface of the lake during the day was completely different from the night, and the effect of the water was not an environmental map, but a crystal clear and glowing white light.
A herring leaps up from the surface of the lake, soars into the air, and then falls again, hitting the surface of the water and making a splash. This kind of realistic water surface effect is really not something that can be expressed at night.
His eyes were closed, but when the camera zoomed in, he could see the violent movement of his eyeballs under his nose.
A man trapped under the water suddenly appears in the picture, motionless, as if he has lost consciousness, not knowing whether he is dead or alive, and his face cannot be seen.
The image flashed, and the man opened his eyes suddenly.
There is a special symbol in the sky that glows with golden light, as if hidden in the clouds, but the "director" deliberately lets you see it.
Chinese players only understood that it was a symbol in the gossip.
The man in the water flashed again, and this time the camera was closer, and his long hair could be seen scattered, like aquatic plants...... Oily swaggering underwater.
In the moment that flashed, everyone seemed to see his silhouette, as if ...... is the male protagonist.
He stood up from the rock, and the camera looked up and revolved around him, reflecting the entire 360-degree sky.
It turned out that there was not only one symbol, but there were seven other symbols in other directions, and these eight symbols that seemed to be the same but different covered the entire sky!
At this time, the music also became magnificent, they could hear the timbre of the strings and brass, but they didn't know what kind of drum sound, it should be from China.
"Is it gossip? Not very clear. Han Dong said to the photographer.
"It's gossip." The photographer replied.
"It's kind of awesome here."
"Indeed."
There was no sudden change in the sky, dark clouds, thunder and lightning and so on, but the clouds seemed to speed up a little, and the wind rose.
The more this is the case, the more plausible the performance is, the more strange it is.
Coupled with the rapidly rotating Zhou Tian through the wide-angle lens, this hint of the shot seems to tell the audience that the protagonist is also understanding something.
"It's not the real world!" At the scene, someone shouted out in their hearts on the Internet.
From the very beginning, it seems that more and more details are revealing the truth of this world.
This is not true.
The rotating camera stopped, and the rhythm of the music slowed down.
Behind the man were his wife, his children, and the big white dog.
Their faces were full of warmth and smiles, and even the white dog was no longer his usual laziness, wagging his tail enthusiastically.
The man's eyes were confused again, and he was in a struggle.
The woman and a pair of children stepped forward, took his hand, took him by the sleeve, and the white dog came up...... They seemed to be retaining, and they also reminded him of the warmth of this leisurely life.
Han Dong whispered, "Did his wife and children know the truth about this world in the first place?" ”
"Or maybe they're part of this world," the photographer said. ”
"They're not real, either?"
"But they never doubted it, at least the director never revealed that they were in the same camp as the actor."
"You know what came to mind? "Truman's World". ”
"Huh? I'm thinking of The Matrix ......"
"Almost."
The man closed his eyes and hugged his family.
When he opened his eyes again, the hesitation, hesitation, and doubt in his eyes had disappeared without a trace, and had turned into perseverance and determination...... But if you pay attention, you may still see a trace of remembrance and reluctance.
Then he shook his head.
The wife burst into tears.
It's time to say goodbye.
The music is high again, and unlike the previous climax, which beats the hearts of the audience and makes people feel nervous, this one is completely stretched out, reflecting this farewell moment. Its tone is not tragic, and at the end of this ancient song, Murong ends with piano and violin in a minor key, just a little sad.
The man touched his wife's face one last time.
In an instant, the heavens and the earth repeatedly, and the universe fissioned.
The mountains in the distance cracked the wind, and the snow-capped mountains, which had a sacred meaning in the eyes of the audience, poured out of the cracks.
The flood came together and turned into a monstrous wave.
It's like the tsunami that was about to swallow the Statue of Liberty in the movie "The Day After Tomorrow", sweeping everything and roaring towards this otherwise peaceful mountain hinterland.
No one had horror on their faces.
There are no wives, no children, no white dogs, and no men.
He just stroked his wife's face and touched the children's heads.
The sky finally changed at this time, and the eight golden symbols broke through the clouds and became clear, but it was still very quiet, there were no wind and clouds, no landslides and earth cracks, but the golden light passed through the clouds, directly hit the earth, and shone on the people in the valley.
It's all quiet. As if the waves behind him had nothing to do with everything here, they were two separate worlds, the flood behind them was swallowing everything, and this was still the last warm place.
Even if it's about to cease to exist.
It's the final goodbye, and time doesn't stop.
The flood eventually overwhelmed everything.
The picture returns to black silence again.
The music also quietly stopped.
But everyone believed that it was not over yet, and sure enough, two seconds later, the picture cut back to the man in the water.
He still didn't move, but he had already opened his eyes.
Can you see tears in the water?
Who knows.
……
……
When the lights of the theater came on again, everyone believed that this time it was really over.
Because the name of this project has not been officially determined, it is not shown at the end of the film, so it can't be shown as a ProjectB.
The audience at the scene was still immersed in the sentimental atmosphere of the farewell just now, and they were still reminiscing about the story and those wonderful details.
After calming down for a while, the audience erupted in warm applause.
Xia Qingyu is also applauding, not support, and she doesn't need it, she is also sincere.
