In the next few days, Ye Shenxi enjoyed the snow in the Xia Family Courtyard, drank tea, soaked in hot springs, and read, which was really the most leisurely spring break he had ever had.

From time to time, some of Xia Yu's old friends come to visit, and those who can come to Mount Emei are not only pure business partners, but also real friends, as well as relatives from Xia Yu's hometown.

During the Chinese New Year, there are many people who want to come to Xia's house to move around, and there are also some bigwigs, but some of them inquire, and they are not in the villas in the west of Funan City, and they came to the mountains.

There are some people in the middle, Xia Yuqi will bring his daughter and son-in-law to meet together, they are not powerful people, but relatives and friends, which can be regarded as highlighting Ye Shenxi's official qualifications.

Those uncles, aunts, uncles and aunts were very surprised to see Ye Shenxi, Xia Yu's baby daughter has a partner? This is big news. During the conversation, Ye Shenxi was also a compliment, a talent, young and successful, and a talented woman with a little fish, a match made in heaven, balabala......

Ye Shenxi sat aside and listened and didn't interject much, but he was quite embarrassed.

Mainly these people, some of them are really the kind of simple villagers, although they have also opened some small companies and factories, but they are still simple, these compliments sound like they are sincere, not the kind of polite flattery in the shopping mall.

Asked what Ye Shenxi did, Xia Yuqi laughed, saying that he was a company and a game.

Relatives and friends said that the company has your Lao Xia to protect it, and it is not like a fish in water, soaring.

Xia Yuqi said that they didn't understand that thing, and they couldn't help, so let them toss it themselves.

Relatives and friends say that high-tech, the Internet.

Xia Yu waved his hand and said that a small fight is just the top three in the country.

Relatives and friends were shocked.

Xia Yu's pride was beyond words.

……

Xia Yuqi's study is a good place, although there is nothing to find on the Internet now, but it is really not easy to find this kind of snow outside the window, warm as spring indoors, quiet and leisurely place, which makes people calm and read books.

There are books on the bookshelf, and Shen Xi thinks it's really helpful to him.

Like he found a copy of the twentieth forties, Joseph. Joseph Campbell's The Hero with a Thousand Faces, a scholar who is good at studying the commonalities of myths across the world, proposes a "myth of the same structure", that is, myths and stories from different cultures and regions around the world have similar structures.

To sum it up: a hero, from the original ordinary world, boldly stepped into the magical world of supernatural forces. There, he possessed fabulous powers and won decisive battles, and through such mysterious adventures, the hero gained strength, returned to his original world, and blessed his followers.

This theory can be applied in many places, most obviously in games, where the player is the "hero", and players like good games, but prefer games that give them a sense of substitution.

Ye Shenxi also found some works on psychology, and he saw Mihai Lee, a psychologist at the University of Chicago in the United States. In the seventies, Mihalyi Csikszentmihalyi proposed the theory of "flow", which was the result of his research theory dedicated to the study of peak experience and peak performance of successful people.

For the concept of "FLO", "flow" is just one of the translations, it can also be called immersion, intoxication, intoxication, indulgence, and flow, and consciousness and feelings flow with it.

Some people also call it "forgetting things and forgetting things, and having no distractions." ”

It is a feeling and experience of how a person, spontaneously, first develops a strong interest in a thing and a goal, and then self-propels, completely immerses in it, and desperately wants to achieve that goal. And in the process of achieving this goal, I entered a state of self-forgetfulness, high excitement, and after achieving it, I was extremely fulfilled.

This state of mind is evident in many areas, such as when an athlete is on the field, overtaking the previous one step at a time, and finally overtaking all opponents before the finish line and hitting the red belt that is the first to hit the point.

For example, in an experiment, scientists are still one thing short of the material verification of the last filament to be able to invent a durable electric lamp; For example, when a student has 20 minutes left in the last big question of the math test, he encounters a handy application problem;

For example, Zhang Wuji has a strong foundation of Jiuyang Shengong's internal strength, and he has practiced the great transfer of ordinary people who need to practice for hundreds of years in one day, and there is a very important reason, and the above examples are also the same:

That's what they're interested in, or good at.

If you don't have these two conditions, then you won't have this flow experience, but you will be anxious, irritable, confused, and eventually give up.

Of course, this theory is also widely used in games.

To put it simply, it's about designing a clear goal that the player can achieve, taking up their full attention during the challenge, and receiving clear feedback every step of the way.

Ye Shenxi has actually tried it in the previous game design, just like the system of enhancing oneself in "The Way of the Immortals", the setting of a small goal, and the challenge of gradually deepening difficulty. But the difference is that at that time, he did not have such a theory to support, but purely out of his own feelings for players and individuals, through his previous game experience and production experience, he summarized in a wild way.

And without such an orthodox theoretical basis, there is also a difference in the degree of systematization and perfection.

When I was in North America, I also had some exchanges with some American gamers Ye Shenxi, and what impressed him the most was that they were often able to find theoretical support when they were carrying out a design, and then crackle and tell you a lot, although it may not necessarily be realized to achieve the desired effect, but there is no doubt that such a process can improve the probability of success.

And many domestic game people, they are more likely to summarize experience through successful projects in the market, analyze the pros and cons, and then refine the advantages and continue them.

This process is of course needed, but it should be in a supporting position rather than being the only thing that drives a project or system...... Unfortunately, they have almost missed the original purpose of a design.

Ye Shenxi realized that it was like a game of rivers and lakes, a young master wanted to grow into a real Taishan Beidou, martial arts authentic, that is not just through experience summary and self-deduction, his goal is not to become a Zhang Wuji, but Zhang Sanfeng.

He still has a long way to go to become a truly good game designer.

These days in Xia Yuqi's study, Ye Shenxi has read a lot of works on psychology, anthropology and design.

Many of these theories and cases made him feel something, and even corresponded to his past experience one by one, and had a deeper understanding and understanding.

A lot of things can be applied to the game.

For example, see Skinner's theory, one of the founders of new behaviorist psychology, put a pigeon in a box, there is a button inside, each peck the button with their beak, and food will fall from the top of the box.

Then Skinner proposed the operable conditional launch theory, and by extension to the game, Ye Shenxi was thinking about how to strengthen and stimulate the player, and even the player's reward was variable when the "peck" button, and sometimes it would bring some surprises, so that they could be more engaged in the game.

He also looked at the Gestalt theory created by Austrian and German psychologists to think about how to create a realistic and believable game world, because the player's understanding of a game comes from all the elements and many details, and these things come together to make a complete game experience.

Another example is the American psychologist John? Starhi? John Stacey Adams (1965) proposed the fairness theory, how to weigh the player's efforts in the game, adjust his psychological expectations of reward, and then give him a satisfactory reward.

These books will definitely not be able to be read in the past few days, and they can be read slowly in the future anyway, but Ye Shenxi took a cursory look and felt that he had gained a lot.

These things are the cornerstones of the truly magnificent work that he will later complete.

This swims in the ocean of knowledge...... And then I feel so comfortable watching my experience points go up......

……

……

In his spare time, Ye Shenxi will also accompany Xia Qingyu to go up the mountain for a walk.

After picking up a day of sunshine, the two took dumplings and traveled lightly.

In the past, he had also come to Emei when he was backpacking alone, but at that time he mainly took the official tourist route, sightseeing car on Lei Dongping, Jinding and then detoured to Fuhu Temple and the like, where would he walk with Xia Qingyu in the mountains that has not been developed and inaccessible paths.

It is certainly impossible to say that it is a barren mountain and a wild mountain, the main thing is that there are no tourists to disturb it, and it is relatively quiet.

After all, Xia Qingyu has lived in the mountains for several years.

There is no need to lead the dog leash in the middle, just let the dumplings sprinkle their own cheerfulness, and occasionally meet the indigenous monkeys on the mountain, a dog and a monkey face each other from afar, and do not let each other.

The dumplings bared their teeth and whispered in a low voice, and the monkey was completely stunned when he laughed.

The monkey was clever and threw a snowball from the treetops at the dumplings, which were not stupid, turned their heads to avoid them, and then yelled at the monkeys in protest.

But the more he roared, the happier the little monkey became, and he liked the way you couldn't get used to me and couldn't do anything about me, so he called three or two friends, pointed to the dumplings, and sneered.

Ye Shenxi also said: "That monkey is too naughty." ”

Xia Qingyu's apricot eyes are wide open, dare to bully dumplings? Roll up a ball of snow from under your feet and make it into a snowball, copy the little monkey and throw it.

The monkey seems to play with people a lot, and is familiar with the accuracy of other ordinary tourists, so he doesn't care. Who would have thought that Xia Qingyu's ball was far from being comparable to ordinary people, no matter the accuracy and strength were superior, the little monkey was hit with a "snap" lightly.

Snowballs scatter into debris and fall from the trees.

Xia Qingyu is measured, and it must be more than just hurting it, that is, helping the dumplings breathe a sigh of relief.

The other little monkeys saw a hard stubble that they couldn't provoke, and they scattered in a hurry, but the one who provoked the dumplings was still a little confused and stayed in the distance, but I didn't expect to be hit one day.

The dumplings are proud now, and they are provocative again.

The little monkey was stunned for a moment, only to see Xia Qingyu make a gesture of throwing snowballs again, although his hands were empty, he was still startled, "squeak" twice, which probably means that you wait for me, don't run after school or something, and then jump into the bushes and disappear.

Dumpling then ran over to complain to his mother.

It's just a small episode on the road.

The two chatted and walked, walked briskly on the mountain road, turned a mountain col, and bypassed a tea plantation, about noon, the corner suddenly opened up, and a simple Taoist temple stood in the mountain.

Black tiles and black pillars, sitting upright in all directions, the ancient trees on the mountainside cover half of the top of the palace, in the clouds and mist, it looks full of fairy spirit.

Walking to the front of the hall, did not meet the travelers, the incense was quite deserted, Ye Shenxi looked up, the plaque engraved: "innocent view".

"I feel like I have to take off my shoes before entering the temple." Ye Shenxi whispered.

"Huh? How? Rao is Xia Qingyu didn't keep up with the rhythm of this sentence.

"It's so shoeless." Ye Shen Creek Road.

"Don't complain, this is where I grew up." Xia Qingyu said.

It turned out that this was the reason why Xia Qingyu brought Ye Shenxi over.

"I've lived in this temple for three years, which is almost the middle school I studied in it."

"How do you feel a little lonely?"

"Taoism, what it pays attention to is purity, this is not the kind of Taoist temple developed for human tourism, in today's words, it is underground and not commercial."

"Don't you complain yourself, and you're still doing underground hip-hop. Can pets follow up? ”

"It's okay to be your own people."

Suddenly, the door of the hall opened, revealing a gap, and a head popped out, it was a female crown, dressed in a loose black Taoist robe, and a Taoist hairpin was inserted in the green silk coil.

Xia Qingyu smiled, shook his hand and said, "Senior sister! ”

The woman was also stunned: "Little fish? ”

……

……

In the innocent view, Ye Shenxi and Xia Qingyu greeted her master and a bunch of senior sisters and sisters together for the New Year.

Not all of those female crowns grew up here, most of them were in a situation in the red dust, or they were disheartened, or they saw through the red dust, and finally came to this place.

To say that it is a place to escape, in fact, there is also a bit of such a feeling, this is not a place with strong positive energy, Ye Shenxi feels that he can quite understand. Some people need to find a safe haven, perhaps to recharge, or to heal.

But they don't show it very openly.

Or maybe it's because the Master taught him well.

Master didn't say much to Ye Shenxi, but he felt that it was a woman full of life experience and wisdom in life, not the kind of elder who was happy and gossiping, but she also asked about Xia Qingyu's recent situation, and didn't comment much, just let her live a good life by herself.

This Taoist temple is not maintained by the incense of tourists, it has its own tea garden, in fact, it is quite a large piece, relying on these teas can also ensure the life of the people in the temple.

What's more, there is also the support of the family behind these female crowns, such as when Xia Yuqian sent Xia Qingyu here.

Xia Qingyu also took Ye Shenxi to the room where she used to live, which was originally a backyard where male guests were not allowed to enter.

……

No, whenever you go to the Taoist temple in the deep mountains and old forests, you will have adventures.

It's just that Xia Qingyu wanted to meet his master himself, let Ye Shenxi see the traces of his life back then, and also take him to relax.

Seeing him reading in the study these days, I'm afraid that he is going to go crazy.

At the beginning of February, before the end of spring vacation, the three members of the Xia family returned to their hometown to worship their ancestors, and there was no need for Ye Shenxi to follow the past at present, concentrate on reading, and then plan the direction of the project, and gradually began to produce some documents.

The more troublesome thing is to consider that the salmon work is over there, and you have to use English.

The matter of the refresher class is not troublesome, Xia Qingyu contacted the Beijing Film and Television Academy, and he can still insert people, with the current scale of the Qingyu network, Ye Shenxi's identity and status, the interview or anything can be waived, and it is not a problem to insert it halfway, and even full-time study is not required, you can come at any time, say hello, no, let's sponsor the school OK.

And it's basically the same as auditing, and it doesn't require a certificate of completion.

This spring break slowly ended in Ye Shenxi's leisure and recharging.
