At this time, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning in China, and the office building of Qingyu Network was completely in full swing, with the sound of keyboards, discussions, tearing, and sounds.

The current office building area is really crowded, although even the lower floor was rented later, and now only the 700 or so people in the Funan headquarters are crowded...... The air is not very well circulated, and the comfort of going to work is gradually decreasing.

And that's not counting the Maruko Studio, which is also in Funan, where their office is located elsewhere.

Fortunately, the two buildings in the first phase of the herring industrial park have been built and renovated, and it is estimated that there will be another winter, and it is estimated that everyone in this building will be able to move in first by the beginning of spring next year.

The newly built herring industrial park with an area of 40,000 square meters has become a landmark scenery in the south of Funan City. It will be the center of the game industry in Funan City, and even the whole country.

When Ye Shenxi was away, the daily affairs of the Funan R&D headquarters were in charge of Vice President Li Zhi, and "Chang'an Road" was also in the intensive development stage.

Lao Li has a straightforward temperament, and he has a good relationship with his employees, and the original team of his "Proud Sword" project was the original "Swordsman 2" brought over from Jin Chan, and they have been friends for six or seven years.

As soon as I asked someone to go out to smoke a cigarette together, and I was going to chat about some things about the copy system while smoking, my eyes flashed, and I saw an employee watching a video not far away. Lao Li's eyes are very good, separated by several workstations, and the other party also asked the video window to be reduced to about 1/28 of the size of the monitor, and Li Zhi still saw it at a glance.

A planner of the merman studio, who came to the company for an internship last year, and a newcomer who just graduated this year has been officially employed for more than half a year, called Xiao Han.

Can there be such a thing? How to do the induction training for newcomers now! Li Zhi's temper couldn't bear it, so he left his smokers and walked over. When he walked behind the employee, he was completely immersed in the video, wearing headphones and unaware of the movement behind him.

Li Zhi directly patted the other party's shoulder, and the newcomer shuddered, first of all, he reflexively switched Alt+Tab to an Excel sheet, and then turned back tremblingly, and when he saw Mr. Li, who was tall and big behind him, and had a bad face, his face turned white in an instant.

Li ...... Mr. Li. The newcomer took off his headphones, turned around and stood upright, standing up straight.

"What are you looking at, so relishing, what is so beautiful?"

It seems that the first sentence of the leader after catching the stolen goods is always to ask this, what to see, what to do, what to play. It's as if they don't really know what you're looking at, or are genuinely interested in knowing what you're looking at.

Xiao Han's face was squeezed into a piece of candy paper: "Mr. Li...... I'm sorry, I don't dare in the future. ”

The first leader of the R&D department has never seen the time when he is angry, but the second in command is often seen, so he is very cowardly.

"I, ask, you, look, what." Li Zhi said word by word, the words were sonorous and powerful, and there was a murderous atmosphere.

"Yes, it's VGA's awards ceremony......"

“……”

“……”

"Hmm......" Li Zhi hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Which award did you get it?" ”

Xiao Han didn't react for a while, and after a pause, he said, "The best studio of the year is about to be awarded......

Li Zhi didn't understand color, so he only moved: "Cut back." ”

"Oh, okay."

Xiao Han switched back to the live broadcast website, just in time to see the signal source playing a video, flashing a studio logo, Gayare...... This was followed by the best work they had contributed last year, the gameplay footage of Mass Effect 2.

It's clear that it's time for the "Studio of the Year" to be awarded, and the finalists are being showcased, with the final results to be announced soon.

Li Zhi went directly to Xiao Han's seat and sat down.

Xiao Han doesn't know what the situation is.

"Sit down." There is also a small stool next to the workstation, which is convenient for the team members to leave their workstation and discuss problems.

"Good, good ......"

"What about headphones? Give me one. ”

"Good ......"

"Be quick."

The logo of the glass slag in the video also appears, and then there is a clip from "Star Wars: Wings of Freedom", this section is mainly CG, after all, it is one of the strongest parts of the glass slag, and the face of machine gunner Tex smoking in the armor flashes.

Bang Chicken's "Halo: Reach Star" ......

Then I finally arrived at the Qingyu Network, Henggong Studio, "Getaway".

……

At the scene in the Spike studio hall, the guest who presented this award was Donnawei, vice president of Ren's North American branch, Ye Shenxi also had a relationship with her before, at last year's E3.

After the film was played, Donnaway shook her head: "This year's competition is really fierce, I think every finalist can afford this honor, four companies, four teams, four works, in this year, they all impressed us impressed." ”

The old lady is very good at talking, and the audience is inhaling and concentrating at this time.

"It was ...... who won this year's Studio of the Year," she said, too.

The camera swept in front of the four competitors one by one, all of them were smiling faces with nothing to be faulted with, Ye Shenxi was particularly natural, after all, he went to the Beijing Film and Television Academy to study.

"Congratulations to Fisoa, Yokoko Studios."

“yes！”

"it!"

Such shouts erupted at once.

Wait, why is there a "sleeper" in Chinese?

Li Zhi took off the headset and stood up to look at the office, and with a sweep of it, he saw at least 8 of them vibrating their arms.

He didn't bother to drink anything this time, shook his head and smiled and sat down again.

"How many are you doing today?" He asked Xiao Han beside him.

"The third, Mr. Li, none of the 'Best RPG' and 'Best PC Game' in front of me have been left behind." Xiao Han's face is radiant, not a typo, glory is the glory of glory.

He feels that he is really lucky to be able to enter such a company, and perhaps in this office, as well as in the branches in South Korea, the United Kingdom and the United States, there are many people who are watching the live broadcast at this time, and they also have such thoughts.

"Tsk, that's amazing." Li Zhi hey, hey.

"Mr. Li, do you think we mermen can also win this award in the future."

This question made Li Zhi more embarrassed......

……

The herring fish network is 3/4 tonight.

"Studio of the Year" is the penultimate award tonight, and it can be said that the awards ceremony is nearing its end and will usher in the final climax.

Finally, it's time for the final "Game of the Year" to be revealed.

As a professional TV station, the organizer knows how to hype up the topic, and the final award guest is EA's chief operating officer, Peter Moore. One of the most talked-about topics among players and media this year is the "break" between EA and Herring.

In August of this year, 24 games that EA originally distributed on the FG platform disappeared from the platform one after another, and they were no longer searchable.

On the Origin platform, they noted that "the digital version is only available on Origin".

Although both EA and Qingyu said in an interview with the media that the relationship between the two companies is very good, the removal of EA games is just an adjustment of the company's strategy, and there will be opportunities for cooperation between the two sides in the future.

However, this kind of rhetoric between companies, players still think that it is okay to listen to it casually.

In this year's "Game of the Year", there is naturally still suspense, and the jury will not only refer to sales, but there is no doubt that "Getaway" has the highest demand, high sales, and high reputation. In this case, Peter Moore accepted the invitation of the organizer and was willing to "probably" present Ye Shenxi with the award, perhaps to show everyone that the relationship between the two companies is really not as bad as you think.

The five finalists are God of War 3, Red Dead Redemption, Call of the Year 7: Black Ops, Halo: Reach, and Getaway......

These are all games that have appeared on the big screen many times tonight, and they are also the strongest players that have been carefully selected throughout this year.

The final suspense is about to be revealed.

Peter Moore looked at the list of winners in his hand, and then smiled and read: "It's still 'Getaway', of course, congratulations to Fisoa." ”

Or a getaway...... That's what he said.

The herring fish network is the biggest winner tonight, and none of the four heaviest people have failed.

Ye Shenxi got up and hugged Xia Qingyu and kissed him gently...... Not a veneer kiss.

Hugging with Shan Jie and hugging with the other two members...... Patting them on the shoulder.

and Yang Shu...... Well, shake hands.

Then he took two long legs and walked towards the stage, and there were many roadblocks along the way who hugged him, shook hands, and congratulated.

Last year's Pasca was also nominated for this award with "The Origin of Everything", but not many people were too optimistic about that title at the time, and although it sold every second, there was no precedent for such an indie game to win Game of the Year, and it was true, he lost out to "Uncharted 2".

This year's Pasca is back with "Getaway", and it got his wish.

And next year he is likely to come back, with his new work "No One Survived", I don't know if it was intentional or coincidental, and the opponent he faced is still "Uncharted 3...... It's like revenge for 09.

However, this may just be the wishful thinking of some Star Dou citizens.

Ye Shenxi walked onto the stage and shook hands with Peter Moore.

"Congratulations, Pasca."

"Thank you."

Peter Moore consciously stepped aside, Ye Shenxi looked at this trophy, it was no different from the other three, it looked mediocre, the material of the crystal process, the weight was quite heavy.

"Thank you, this time I can finish what I want to say......" Ye Shenxi began.

There was a burst of laughter from the audience, of course, this is the last award, no need to be stingy with words.

"But it looks like our show is a little out of time." Ye Shenxi looked at his watch, it was already half past ten in the evening local time in the United States, and he said to the camera lens: "Many of our users are minors, hey, let's go to bed as soon as the award ceremony is over, okay?" ”

"Hahaha......" Xia Qingyu looked at the confident man on the stage offstage, with outstanding demeanor, obviously after watching it for more than three years, he was still a little obsessed.

"I've thanked a lot of people just now, and it's pretty much the same, so this time I'd like to thank something else."

Xia Qingyu was a little surprised, the whole company thanked him, the players, the media, and even the Polish stupid donkey Marcin and Adam thanked them just now, isn't it...... There's still a very important person missing, and I don't have thanks......

Ye Shenxi's eyes didn't look at her and met her, and continued: "I want to thank fate, something very mysterious. ”

The audience was quiet and listened to him politely, which in itself was a moment of glory for him.

"Three years ago, in June of '07, I was looking for a job in Funantou, China, and it was a very hot summer." Ye Shenxi seemed to start recalling.

His family history has been dug too much by the media, and many people know about this kind of thing, so he is regarded as a genius to do something different from ordinary people, isn't it normal.

But when Xia Qingyu heard this, his originally somewhat lost face climbed into a smile.

"At that time, the company called Qingyu Network had just been established for a little more than a week, and there were only 11 people in the whole company......

Whistles and cheers rang out.

"I want to thank fate for having met her, and after that I feel like my life is finally on track...... Based on an occasion like today, I would like to say that our working relationship is that we are the most tacit and intimate partners. Every project I do doesn't have to worry about anything else, I just do it on my own terms, you don't know how rare it is...... The company's development strategy, studios, related equipment, technical support needed, publicity and promotion, these things ...... It's like you're all there for me, telling me to take it yourself......"

"It's like when you tell me before you go out that breakfast is on the table...... It seems to be similar, and we really don't usually spend much time together......"

"I knew we weren't going down this sensational route, so I took advantage of today's opportunity. What I want to say is, I couldn't have done this without your support, we're the best work partners, right, I love you, boss. ”

He waved the trophy and gave Xia Qingyu a flying kiss.

If it was a domestic award ceremony, he probably wouldn't have been able to do such a thing.

In the applause of the audience, Xia Qingyu looked at the stage and kept smiling, but her eyes were a little moist.

But he still stubbornly glared at Ye Shenxi, meaning: "We didn't take this sensational route in the first place." ”

He snorted again, "Work partner...... Then don't come into my house tonight. ”

But it was still very face-saving and gave him a flying kiss back.

……

On the big screen, the last trailer of the night begins to play.

The logo of the herring network, the blue fish on a white background, everyone is too familiar with it, but this time the studio logo is not the most familiar "Henggong Studio", but another "Salmon Studio" that appeared in everyone's field of vision for the first time.

Peter Moore was thinking that it would be done from North America.

The screen fell into a dark silence, accompanied by a heavy gasp, and a slight light not far away, approaching this direction.

Then there was the sound of the door locking, it was loud.

The rhythm of the sound of leather shoes stepping on the wooden floor is very uneven, and you can hear from the sound that the owner's legs and feet are very unstable.

And it seems to be in danger.

He finally walked into the living room, and everyone could see him clearly, a middle-aged man about fifty years old, with a wrinkled face and a large gray stain on his hair and beard.

What a detailed face, just like the shock when people saw the old king in the CG of "Warcraft War 3" back then.

C4Cake Studio, which was acquired by the Blue Fish Network before, should be their work.

The middle-aged man looked very tired, holding a rifle and his arm was still bleeding.

"I think it's a zombie theme." Seeing this, many people are thinking.

He began to look at the hut, his eyes filled with a feeling called nostalgia, and he seemed very warm.

His hand swept over the photographs on the table, and the camera didn't give a close-up, but it seemed to be his family from a distance.

"Bang bang bang!" A few more swoops.

Someone is knocking on the door...... It can't be said to knock on the door, it should be a knock, or a tap.

Then the slapping sound slowly became more and more rapid, and it sounded like there were more and more people, as if more than a dozen people were banging on the doors and windows around the cabin at the same time.

But outside the window it was dark and nothing could be seen......

Suddenly there was a flash of light, and only then was the roar of thunder heard...... Sure enough, it's the work of the herring fish network, and even the physical phenomenon that light travels faster than sound is reflected in the game......

Through that moment of light, the audience followed the camera and saw that the door was full of people, many people.

The man turned on all the lights in the room, and at this time everyone could finally see out the window.

No, those are not human at all, but hideous-looking zombies, who have lost their minds and become more irritable under the stimulation of the lights.

There were so many of them that the cabin had been tightly surrounded......

The man didn't look at them, just hobbled over to the vinyl player, found a record, put it in the machine, and started it.

The shallow singing was low, and a slightly hoarse female voice sounded.

The melody seemed to pull the hearts of the audience back to the ground all at once.

The song is warm and serene.

The man walked over to the rocking chair, then sat down, swayed, closed his eyes, and began to enjoy the music.

His hand didn't drop his gun, and he was still dripping blood.

Blood was splattered on the stalls, and there was the corpse of a zombie lying in the head, which had been shot in the head, and it looked like they had already fought.

The man had zombie tooth marks on his hands......

At this time, everyone knows that this is not the protagonist.

They heard the singing: "I have not been weak...... I think back to when I was eighteen years old...... Take me home. ”

"Take me home."

After this melody, the man held the gun to his jaw.

The picture slowly fades out, and the silence resumes.

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out.

The logos of herring web and salmon reappeared.

Game Name: No one survived.

Release time: 2011.11.
