Chapter 402: A More Realistic and Three-Dimensional Pasca

Ye Shenxi didn't plan to stay in Los Angeles for long, and he planned to return to Seattle for retreat as soon as E3 ended, but that didn't mean he didn't have much to do here. There are also some global game industry forums, developer exchange forums, or interviews with major media held with E3.

As an Internet celebrity-type public figure, Ye Shenxi's exposure rate has never been low, and it can even be said that he is proud of the world in the field of games. Basically, a lot of articles in the game media will mention him from time to time, and even feature descriptions. But after all, he is still on the front line of research and development, and he is not so keen to appear in the public eye, and he only accepts interviews with some acquaintances or influential enough media out of favor during the retreat.

Besides, the two headquarters and various branches of Qingyu also have their own spokespersons for the public relations department.

So from the time he confirmed with the official that Pasca would be attending E3, he received interviews from more than 20 media outlets before he left, and finally he chose 5 of them because he was in a hurry.

In the private reception room of the hotel where the Qingyu network team stayed, Ye Shenxi sat in front of an old acquaintance at the moment, the female reporter from the game topic of "Time Magazine", the blonde Ivhart, this is the third time this reporter has interviewed Ye Shenxi.

Especially for the first time, it was the Spring Festival of 09, she crossed the ocean to China, and then stayed here for a long time, and wrote a survey report on China's game industry, which is the enlightenment teaching material for many foreign players and practitioners to realize the Chinese game market, at that time, the herring fish network had just issued the first cry in the face of the world, and a huge market like the rising sun was also rising in the east, and that article was of great significance for the record of global industrial transformation.

"Pasca, first of all, congratulations on the release of a new title, and I mean Paradise Lost."

"Thank you." Ye Shenxi saw an extra ring on the other party's ring finger: "Are you married?" That should be to congratulate you. ”

Everhart raised his right hand and showed off the diamond ring: "Thank you, I'm 32 years old, I should get married, what age do you think it's appropriate to get married?" ”

"I thought you were a game journalist."

"Of course yes, I'm a game journalist, but I'm also a woman, and that's just my personal gossip curiosity."

"I think it's okay to do it anytime, as long as the law allows."

"You're talking so well now."

"It's not been trained by you."

"Haha, okay, so the interview officially begins?"

"I can't wait."

"Why hasn't the game Paradise Lost been revealed before, is it because I'm afraid that the idea will be leaked in advance?" The speed at which the reporter entered the state was so fast that it immediately became sharp. When the trailer for "Paradise Lost" was first revealed, players were still a little confused, but as E3 progressed, more news including the disclosure of gameplay content, and people quickly understood what kind of game it was.

Ye Shenxi shook his head and said, "No, I just need a more formal occasion to introduce it to everyone." ”

"But now it's only been exactly 6 months since the official launch of "Paradise Lost", will it seem a little late as the first official announcement?"

"I don't think it's too late, it's ...... We're a little more efficient, haha, you know. ”

It seems that Ye Shenxi is joking, but this is indeed a fact, other similarly heavyweight products, after a game is released, their producers generally take two years or more to bring the next one. And since the launch of "Getaway" in June last year, by the end of this year, Ye Shenxi will bring two to all players in a year and a half, with an average of one in 9 months.

Oh, and don't forget, the guy in the middle also found time to work on three mobile games, two parkour and one puzzle...... So it's a monster that, in such an intensive pace of development, is still able to deliver a work that accurately hits players and the market.

Everhart smiled and said, "Of course, you have something in your head, so many brilliant ideas, and it has always been the question that everyone wants to know the most. ”

She paused again: "The launch date of "Nobody Survives" was announced by VGA last year, but why did "Paradise Lost" start development at the same time until now, a month ago, Villefort officially announced the launch time of their "CS:GO", which is December 10th, you know what I mean. ”

"I know." Ye Shenxi nodded, "But we are sure that the launch time will be earlier than the announcement of Villefort, what is your expression, don't you believe it...... I can show you the internal minutes. ”

"Okay." Ivhar took the lead and didn't play according to the routine at all.

"We're old friends, you know me, you should know that I was joking, the minutes are kept secret, but I can honestly say that our decision on December 10 was made before the announcement from Villefort, and it was decided after a lot of internal consideration."

In fact, the December 10th of "Paradise Lost" is really not intentional by Ye Shenxi, it is indeed Qingyu that has already determined this launch date at the beginning of the year. And the "CS:GO" in Ye Shenxi's memory should be launched in the summer of 12. The ghost knows how G fat rushed to catch up with the progress, so he advanced it by more than half a year, and ran to the end of this year, but it also collided.

It can only be said that the will of God is like this, and the creation makes people, anyway, there is no need for the herring fish network to change the time because of this, as for how players and public opinion think about it, it has little impact, anyway, these are two games that fight in the ring, competing for users for their own platform.

Everhart's interview was very organized, starting from "Paradise Lost", starting with the conversation, and then to "Getaway", and Ye Shenxi theorized about the e-sports industry and the entire online game market. Speaking of "Star Wars: The Old Republic", which EA will also launch at the end of the year, that online game is also a work with high enough R&D costs and EA's scheduled publicity and distribution costs, and it is estimated that it will also break into the top 5 positions in the total cost of the game.

Obviously, it is also a strong competitor to Paradise Lost and CS:GO in the online game war at the end of the year.

Ye Shenxi just said that he hadn't seen the game yet, so it was inconvenient to comment more, and the other party was an MMORPG, which was not the same type as his and Villefort's works, and the target users were different.

From online games to console games, Reinhardt talked about something that other reporters rarely paid attention to, reflecting his professionalism.

"After experiencing the popularity of Getaway, including in North America and Europe, there are many players who have developed a strong interest in China's traditional culture and scenic spots. For example, there is now a player-made website called [Chinese Fairy Tales], which has a good number of visits. ”

"You see, I now know a lot of Chinese legends, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, and even the story of the White Snake and the Seven Fairies, as well as so many magical but different countries in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", spirits, immortals, and mythical beasts, just like the dragon bird is a kind of phoenix, you have five kinds of phoenixes."

"There are also some Chinese translations that have been translated into Chinese, updated every day, and began to circulate on the Internet in Europe and the United States, and have become the content that some netizens are eager to read, mainly from the website called the origin Chinese.com......" Ivhart looked at Ye Shenxi and asked, "You are currently completing the acquisition of that website, you should know about the works in it, right?" ”

"Yes, I have seen some of the above works, and many of them have been recreated with imagination based on traditional folk myths and stories, forming a new kind of online culture."

"Is the acquisition almost complete? It should be an official announcement, right? Everhart squinted.

"This matter is not part of my work, I don't know much about it, but we will make an announcement as soon as there is an update."

Tsk, old fritters.

This is also a casual question, and Ivhart changed the topic back: "And the Fishlook team that was established last year, as far as I know, they have organized more than 4 group China tours with more than 130 participants, and the size and influence of this organization is also expanding, even ordinary players who have not joined them will follow their official website and social media such as Facebook, read their travelogues, and enjoy the photos taken along the way." ”

"So, now some people are mentioning that Fisoa is doing what other cultural fields in China have not done in other cultural fields such as movies, music, TV shows, etc., cultural export, do you agree with this statement?"

That's the main thing about Everhart's interview today.

Ye Shenxi's face was very calm, as if he had already thought about this question a long time ago, and in fact, it was true.

He took a sip of tea, looked into Ivhart's eyes with a very sincere look, and said, "First of all, I don't really agree with the so-called ' The word 'cultural export', although it belongs to an objective description, output, is to express, convey, people in each region and nationality have their own culture, and have the desire to express like other regions and nationalities, which is normal, but it sounds like the word seems to be superior and inferior, dividing different cultures into various levels, and the high-level instilling their own content to the low-level, just like irrigation, you know, the water from the high places flows to the fields at the low levels. ”

"And what kind of wording would you use?"

"I'll use 'communication,' which sounds better."

"Okay, we use 'cultural exchange', does the herring fish network assume the responsibility of using your nation's cultural content to communicate with the world? Whether it's active or passive. ”

Claire (Iver Hart's name), yes, we live in an information age, and one of the best things about this era is that all people, regardless of ethnicity, color, creed, nationality, can communicate and share very easily. In this age of multiculturalism, this is a very happy thing, because we can learn about those people on the other side of the planet, how they live, what kind of background they live in, what kind of past, what kind of perspective they have. ”

"When you know enough, you will make independent decisions about your life."

"If that's the case, I'm glad that players in the U.S. can learn about China through our games."

"The second point is that "Getaway" is indeed a Chinese Xianxia theme, but for me, the so-called culture does not only refer to history, stories, clothing, living habits, food, entertainment and leisure activities, and even language and writing, these are the embodiment of culture after its formation, and the core content of a culture is thought, when we encounter a problem, how we will think, what kind of decisions we make, and how to implement it, this is the more important content."

"Why is the name of "Getaway" Xiaoyao, it is a yearning for absolute freedom pursued in Chinese Taoist culture, why did the dragon bird finally choose to lead the people to fly away, according to the Western way, maybe completing revenge is the best result, isn't it, the harmony between man and nature, a 'born' attitude to life, this is something our ancestors once thought about, and it is also the precipitation of thousands of years."

"We're not trying to tell people what's right and what's wrong, but just to show people that there's a thought that might answer some of your confusion. If it can make people think, no matter what the result of thinking is, even if it is just a little touch for a moment, in Chinese terms, it is called goodness. ”

"So what I'm trying to say is, no matter what the subject matter is, Chinese Xianxia, sci-fi, modern realism, fantasy, punk, post-apocalyptic dystopian wasteland, or the zombies of 'Nobody Survives,' none of that matters."

Everhart also stared at Ye Shenxi tightly: "What do you mean?" ”

Ye Shenxi nodded and said with a smile: "I mean, no matter what kind of subject matter, what background the story takes place in, whether the protagonist is yellow or white or black, I can ...... Well, and world cultural exchanges. ”

Americans can make a punk young woman's "Mulan" to embody feminism and women's freedom, why can't China make a zombie game to express our own thoughts?

In fact, Ye Shenxi's words are translated more bluntly, probably that no matter what subject he is, Lao Tzu can export culture...... Perhaps that's what Reinhardt is feeling right now.

She looked at Ye Shenxi, who was talking eloquently in front of her, her eyes lit up a little. I was confused by this guy's polite gentlemanly demeanor, amazing talent, and some humorous appearance.

In fact, Pasca himself has such a slightly unreasonable, but domineering side in his heart.

Hidden deep enough...... Such a Pasca may be more worthy of his achievements, as a reporter, she should let the readers of Time Magazine realize a more real, three-dimensional Pasca.

……

……

Xia Qingyu has replied to Guo Shaojie's sentence since the last time, "Shoot your idol drama well, don't make trouble." "I haven't cared about this guy since then, of course, Xiao Hei's work is still in progress.

The young Guo Shaojie seemed to be also stunned by this sentence, which was even more domineering than Ye Shenxi, and after that, he didn't dare to respond.

Many entertainment media have caught this news and reported it widely, both positive and negative, suspected of being powerful and suppressing the new generation of actors, or Xiao Xianrou challenging business bigwigs and the like, anyway, there is no wind and no waves, and the slightest wind will make big waves.

Anyway, Guo Shaojie's new drama has been about to be released recently, and after being hyped like this, the attention has indeed increased significantly.

This incident has also become one of the current hot Internet events.

Xia Qingyu is really too lazy to pay attention, does she have to take care of any cat or dog, where is there so much idle time.

It's just that fans of the entertainment industry, especially those fanatical true love fan robbers, seem to be a little chattering, they may seem a little young, but they are definitely resilient. In Xia Qingyu's Weibo, there are various messages, some of which seem to be intense, and more importantly, some of which are naΓ―ve. For example, the threat needs an apology, otherwise ...... Don't buy the game of Qingyu Network for the rest of your life, and call on your relatives and friends, and classmates not to buy it...... Or go to the headquarters of the herring network in Funan and Huangpu to take out the garbage.

What is this......

Even Weibo, which was not bubbling with Ye Shenxi, was killed.

Xia Qingyu has not encountered this kind of annoyance on this since he started playing Weibo, a little annoying, so he ignored it at first, but he was still annoyed, and simply turned off the Weibo comment function temporarily.

Guo Shaojie's side is actually even worse, he has fans, and Mr. Yu is not, and compared with those true love star chasers who are still in school, most of the fans of Qingyu Network are senior netizens who have been immersed in the Internet for many years, tearing them apart on the Internet...... Even if you don't use fierce words, you can crush the other party with jokes.

In this way, the two sides began to tear up with great momentum.

One side has combat effectiveness, and the other side has tenacity.
