At the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the big family sat at the table, as well as Lao Li and Liu's mother, and as for the TV, it was not the fixed TV program.

Although no one watched it, there was an atmosphere when I listened to it, especially the host Zhu Jun and Dong Qing's Mandarin.

"Hey, what's that host's name? It's familiar, I can't remember the name. Liu's mother pointed to the TV and asked, and a male host with glasses was announcing the curtain. She is much more interested in this traditional show than the others.

"Wang Feng." Xia Qingyu said with a smile.

"Oh yes...... Wang Feng's name is a bit impressive. ”

"That Bai Yansong." Ruan Zhu corrected.

"Oh, I said, little fish, you lied to me again."

This year is the second and last time Bai Yansong has hosted the Spring Festival Gala.

"Well, don't feed it." Xia Qingyu saw Ruan Zhu clipping a piece of ribs to throw to the dumplings that had circled around the dining table several times at his feet, and walked through a pile of thighs, rubbing his face in the east and scratching with his paws in the west, Ruan Zhu was the first to notice its existence.

"What's wrong? Aren't you a good dumpling? ”

"Mom, look at how fat it has become, you can't eat more."

"People have to gain three pounds during the New Year, not to mention dogs."

Xia Qingyu felt that her mother always couldn't get along with herself today, she didn't care if she broke the jar, she was fat.

Xia Yuqi didn't talk to Ye Shenxi about work anymore, just gossiping, but between men, it is definitely not firewood, rice, oil and salt, brand-name fashion cosmetics, and it can't be wind and snow, just talk about how he made a fortune back then, or earlier, before making a fortune, how he walked out of a remote mountainous area in the southwest region and came to a big city.

Ye Shenxi heard such a story for the first time.

"Luckily, if you haven't been able to resume the college entrance examination a few years earlier, you don't know how to get out of that mountain." Xia Yuqian raised his glass to signal, and Ye Shenxi reflexively drank all the wine in his cup.

"At that time, I felt that the policy was good, and reading changed fate, but now it is actually better, as long as you are talented, you can change your fate by reading or not."

Ye Shenxi didn't interject, nodded and listened quietly.

"How can you children imagine that when we were young, the school would end after 2 p.m., the teachers would go down to the fields, and then the students would go home and go up the hill to chop wood and cut grass...... I heard the old man say that he had encountered tigers in the mountains in the past six years, but he didn't know if there were any others. ”

Xia Yuqi didn't know if he had drunk some wine, and he was a little embarrassed.

In 84, Xia Yuqi graduated from Shu University and was assigned to the Provincial Bureau of Statistics, at that time there was no choice when he graduated, the policy was like that, go to the grassroots level, go to the front line, intellectuals need to be tempered, and they must learn from workers, peasants and soldiers.

When a bunch of classmates were separated from the surrounding towns and even the countryside, it was enviable for Xia Yuqian to stay in Funan. Of course, it is naturally the relationship between the Ruan family.

In fact, Xia Yuqian and Ruan Zhu were not a couple at that time, but they had already secretly fallen in love with each other. Ruan Zhu, a bright and beautiful city girl, is lethal to a country boy like Xia Yuqi, and she also likes Xiao Xia's tenacity and is willing to watch him change his fate step by step by relying on his own efforts.

Maybe Xiao Xia didn't have the same ambition as he did later, he just wanted to take root in a big city like Funan.

A university is a place where school and society meet, and many classes and circles that are accustomed to society already have some prototypes here, and sometimes even because of the immature minds of students, it is particularly hurtful. The cold eyes and unfair treatment suffered by students from the mountains like Xia Yuqi are far more than ordinary people, and even some girls pass by him, pinch their noses lightly, turn their heads, and then speed up their steps.

But his kind of hard work for a goal, the tenacity to climb up, the superficial indifference and laughter are just to maintain decency, and secretly gritted his teeth to change the status quo, which made Ruan Zhu deeply fascinated.

This is the contemporary version of the story of the official lady and the poor scholar.

Under the guise of revolutionary comrades-in-arms, alumni, friends, and classmates, from time to time, several people go out to climb a mountain, row a boat, ride a bicycle or something, Ruan Zhu will also call Xia Yuqi, Xiao Xia will be embarrassed to refuse most of the time, and will be embarrassed to agree once or twice if he agrees...... I've never ridden a bike, so I can't ride it...... Do you need money for boating, how much does it cost......

Ruan Zhu's friends were curious about why she had a relationship with such a person, and the suitors around her also felt that Xia Yu's appearance by Ruan Zhu's side was a resounding slap in the face to herself.

The Ruan family soon knew about the matter, and disagreed, Ruan Zhu insisted, she was not the kind of girl who had no idea, and the family couldn't screw her, what could be done.

This relationship was not clear until graduation.

Ruan Zhu is a girl, of course, it should be, but Xia Yuqian is caught in contradictions.

The delicate-minded Ruan Zhu certainly knew that with Xia Yu's temperament and background, when facing her family's cadre family, she must have hidden a deep inferiority complex.

It wasn't until the work began to stabilize, after Ruan Zhu's multifaceted and all-round fancy hints, that Xia Yuqi broke the jar and showed his heart.

Ruan Zhu sighed leisurely at that time and said, "I've been waiting for you for more than three years, it's really difficult to wait for your words." ”

A week later, the two received their certificates.

In 86, Xia Yuqian worked for two years, because of his active thinking, solid business and outstanding performance, the bureau thought that he was a rare talent, and included him in the cadre echelon, and sent back to the Department of Management of Shu University for graduate studies.

The day after Xia Yuqi received this notice, he submitted his resignation.

The leaders at that time were shocked, as soon as they came back from graduate school, they were a sure department-level cadre, and they couldn't understand why this young man had to resign. This is completely irresponsible to yourself and your family.

At that time, the herring was already one year old.

Both of them are college students, and their salaries are not low, Xia Yulu has 48 yuan a month, and he was extremely satisfied when he was alone at the beginning. Ruan Zhu is 58 yuan, and the two of them together have a family income of 1,000 yuan a year.

But after Xia Qingyu fell to the ground, looking at his crystal clear doll-like daughter at that time, Xia Yuqi had an unprecedented sense of mission, the instinct of being a father.

He felt as if he was back in college, the pressure to have a goal that he desperately wanted to accomplish, to give his wife and children a better life.

Let's go to the sea, that's how I made this decision.

Doing business naturally requires capital, and the couple has saved more than 1,000 yuan in two years......

"What kind of business can you do with more than 1,000 yuan at that time?" Xia Qingyu didn't bother the two Weng and son-in-law chatting (in fact, it was Xia Yuyu who told the story unilaterally), and then couldn't help but interject and ask, she had heard her parents talk about this when she was a child, but she was not as sensitive and interested in business as she is now.

"There's a lot to do, but not much." Xia Yu paused, and then said: "Then with some money from your grandfather's family, I scraped together 50,000 yuan as the capital to earn the first pot of gold." ”

"Poof......" Xia Qingyu didn't know that there was such a thing and smiled: "Dad, I didn't know that you still had this kind of black history." ”

Ruan Zhu also smiled: "You are really embarrassed to talk about this matter." ”

"What's so embarrassing about that." Xia Yuqi disagreed.

This kind of thing has to be judged from the results, if Xia Yuqi fails to go to the sea now and returns to work honestly, it will be black history. But as it is now, it is a beautiful talk.

"I've always felt like it's one of the things I'm most proud of." Turning his head to look at his wife and daughter: "You are the greatest pride in my life." ”

Hiss......

Ye Shenxi was also surprised, it turned out to be here.

At this time, Ruan Zhu also looked at her husband warmly, and Xia Qingyu also glanced at Ye Shenxi, saying You learn a little.

In the past, only they showed in front of others, where have they ever encountered such a show face, it is a red diamond QQ show.

Jiang is still old and spicy, Uncle Xia, I learned.

Of course, he also knew what Xia Yuqi meant by telling this story, of course, these personal pasts would only be told to his own family. In addition to "warning" his baby daughter about the importance of himself as always, he is actually talking about a "tradition" or "inheritance" of the Xia family.

Xia Yuqian was very satisfied with his story, he and Ruan Zhu met like this, settled down, and it was a lifetime.

Are you envious?

So do you and my daughter.

……

……

After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Ye Chenxi went to the hot spring room and drank some wine with the old man, when he was dizzy, was there anything more pleasant than soaking in the hot spring?

After a while, Xia Qingyu came in directly and sat on the edge of the pool.

Ye Shenxi touched his waist, and fortunately wrapped a bath towel.

Xia Qingyu said: "It's all old husbands and wives, what is there to cover." ”

"Where's your parents?"

"Go for a walk."

"Where's Uncle Li and Mother Liu?"

"I went out with him."

The rooms are arranged separately, and it still compensates for the time the two of them spend alone.

"What did you say was the magic trick on the TV? I thought about it for a while, but I didn't understand. Xia Qingyu took a towel, regardless of whether it was a professional bath towel: "Sit up, I'll rub your back." ”

Ye Shenxi straightened up, Xia Qingyu didn't mention this technique, but the strength was.

Ye Shenxi: "That's ......" Ye Shenxi didn't pay attention to the Spring Festival Gala, but it was still until the magic solution: "I'll find some props to show you later." ”

"You're going to do this?"

"I just understand it."

Xia Qingyu's eyes lit up: "Then I'll go to your room later, and you will teach me by hand." ”

"Your parents killed me."

"Stupid! Wait until they're asleep. ”

"Hmm......"

"What's wrong?"

"Comfortable ......"

"Next time it's your turn to serve me."

"I'll rub it for you for the rest of your life."

The sentence "poof......" is "rubbing" Xia Qingyu laughed and giggled.

"Is it so funny?"

"It's not...... Haha......" Xia Qingyu's movements stopped: "Wait for me to laugh for a while...... Puff ha......"

"What do you think?" Anyway, this girl's strange brain circuit, Ye Shenxi is not surprised.

"Hahaha...... I thought of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", Zhang Wuji painted Zhao Min's thrush for a lifetime, you give it to me...... Ha ha...... Rub the back for a lifetime. ”

Can this also be associated?

Ye Shenxi couldn't help laughing.

After the two finished laughing, Ye Shenxi said again: "Your parents are the best parents I have ever seen." ”

"yes, the best I've ever seen."

……

……

Xia Qingyu is in a really good mood today, while rubbing Ye Shenxi's back, he also hummed a little song, the theme song of the 03 version of "Heaven and Dragon Slayer": "Let him thrush for you all his life, his heart is as tolerant as the sea......"

"What are you frowning for? The thrush I sang was not frowning......" just wrinkled slightly, and Xia Qingyu found out.

"No, I'm thinking about a new project."

"Finally working on a real project, nervous? Expect? ”

"Yes, it's more stressful."

"Is it hard?"

"yes, it's not easy. Yu'er, to be honest, I thought about this project before, I thought about it a long time ago, but at that time I didn't think about it as carefully as it does now, although it has not been officially approved, but the scale is there, and it is also a big project that I have never done. ”

"In terms of complexity, compared to this kind of large-scale RPG single-player game, the ones I've done before are really pediatric."

"You've been waiting for too long, so it's inevitable that you'll be a little apprehensive."

"It's because I haven't done it before, so I don't know the bottom of my heart." Ye Shenxi shook his head and said.

To put it bluntly, in fact, making online games and stand-alone games, doing "Survival", "The Origin of Everything" and this kind of traditional comprehensive narrative games are really two different things.

For example, in terms of narration, how to tell a story, control the rhythm of the plot, and shape the character of the characters, he himself lacks experience in this area.

A little more detailed, how to show the feeling of the character and the plot through what kind of lens in a cutscene CG, that is not just a matter of two characters standing together, you say a word, I say a word, and explain the plot OK.

Lenses, light and shadow, colors, what kind of expressions should the characters have, how the dialogue should be designed, what kind of actions should be matched, and what kind of effect should be achieved.

It is true that in a project, this will be planned by a special plot, not called copywriting abroad, but called riter to be responsible, but as the person in charge of the entire project, Ye Shenxi has to convey his own feelings more subjectively, or the feelings he wants players to get.

If he doesn't know this thing himself, how can he explain it to the plot planner?

He began to think about these details, so he felt like he had hit a wall.

You can't just keep saying, "This isn't the kind of feel I want, remake it." ”

What kind of feel is it? Let's make it clear!

And the whole game is such a huge system, his thinking is right, a real and convincing Xianxia world, the real must be relatively real and not refers to the real world. But it is precisely because of this idea that this project is even more complex than most mainstream triple-A masterpieces in Europe and the United States.

"To put it bluntly, I'm a wild roader, and I have comprehended many things by myself, but my basic skills are not solid enough. I wondered if I was in a bit of a hurry. ”

In fact, this is not Ye Shenxi's problem alone, it should be that domestic planning is basically made of experience, usually the threshold is that the game is experienced, passionate about the game, and then enter the specific work and then exercise professional skills, but the relevant professional knowledge reserve is lacking.

Xia Qingyu is not the kind of person who uses empty words to comfort others, and asks directly: "Then what should we do?" I always have to take this step, even if it is a technology accumulation. ”

"yes, so I have a plan."

"What are you going to do?"

"After the Chinese New Year, I want to find a director training class to recharge."

"You're going to school? Carrying a school bag to school? ”

"I'm not rushing to get a diploma, I just want to recharge my batteries and learn some knowledge."

"Okay, I'll get in touch with you."

"Huh?"

"What's wrong?"

"So refreshing?"

"It's not a residential school, there are a lot of advanced training classes that you can go to once a week, and there are so many people on the job, and it's not a big deal."

"And it's exactly what you said, the more mature the market, the more professional knowledge is needed for orthodox projects, and you have to understand even if you don't have to do it yourself."

"Besides, when did I interfere with your decision?" Xia Qingyu said dissatisfied.
