Lin Mu's previous thinking had been limited to the original setting mode of Warcraft games, but the debate between the boys about the races of Warcraft games at that time made Lin Mu think of a new idea, why didn't he add a race to the original system of Warcraft, a race composed entirely of Chinese/Chinese elements?

This bold idea made Lin Mu's chaotic thoughts suddenly clear, and an unprecedented idea gradually matured in Lin Mu's mind. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThere are many symbolic characters in ancient mythology that can be used as a source of material for this new race setting.

With such thoughts, Lin Mu was not in the mood to wander around, and he hurried home. On the way back, he came up with the name of this new race. The Chinese nation uses the dragon as its totem, and this new game race is called the dragon race. The word for dragon in English is "dragon", but Lin Mu felt that this word referred to dragons in Western culture, so in order to distinguish them, Lin Mu used the Chinese pinyin of dragon when writing the background of the game.

What Lin Mu didn't expect was that his initiative later created another English word representing Chinese/Chinese culture after the kung fu "kunggfu": "long", and the interpretation of the word "longg" in the Oxford dictionary is: a powerful virtual creature, the spiritual totem of the Oriental!

In the design of the dragon class, the forest makes a lot of shapes with a strong Chinese/Chinese atmosphere. The unique embroidered soldiers, the cute turtle wrestlers, and the mighty and powerful crab generals constitute the land troops; The Crane Boy, the Xiangyun Fairy, the Nine-Colored Phoenix, and the Golden Dragon that soars through the clouds and mist constitute the dragon's powerful aerial legion; The water control warlock with a dragon horn on his head, the palm electric celestial master wearing a Taoist robe, and the Guanyin shape with a lotus flower on his feet make up the series of mage classes.

In the selection of heroes, Lin Chen shaped the panda warrior holding the green dragon glaive knife, the mighty monkey sage in armor and the dragon king who can summon the dragon to assist in the battle, the dragon clan's architecture all adopts the Chinese/Chinese classical architectural modeling, and the forest wood also further integrates the principle of the five elements of the Chinese / national five elements in the coordination of the troops, so that the game operability of the entire dragon clan becomes more diversified.

Throughout the game, Lin Chen sets up the dragons as a migration from the ancient Eastern Continent, who have lost their way on a long journey and come to Azeroth. In the game's story, Lin Mu deliberately portrays the dragons as a powerful but peace-loving race, they did not participate in any battles on the mainland, but they succeeded in inflicting heavy losses on the invasion of the orcs and undead armies, and since then the dragons' prestige has resounded in every corner of Azeroth.

When Alan Adhan received a grand game world system designed by Lin Mu, he was most shocked by the dragon that had never appeared in the game, and the setting of Lin Mu was completely designed according to the original system of the other four races of Warcraft, so the appearance of the dragon family did not give Alan Adhan any abrupt feeling, on the contrary, the setting of Lin Mu made the whole Warcraft game more colorful.

Within Blizzard, Lin Mu's setting for the Dragons was approved with little to no resistance, and the only thing that was controversial was the Dragons' setting for the ultimate class in the air, the Dragons. Alan Adhan could not understand that this powerful creature of Eastern mythology could fly without wings, which he considered completely inconsistent with basic physical understanding. It took Lin Mu a lot of effort to explain to him how the dragons of China flew without wings!

Alan Adhan was very interested in the five elements that Lin Mu quoted in the cooperation of the dragon clan, and he was even ready to use this system to improve the balance between the five races, in order to make him understand the five elements, Lin Mu felt that he was about to become a full-time Chinese teacher of Allen Adhan!

In order to ensure that Blizzard can maintain the original flavor of the new dragon image design, Lin Mu specially invited the top game art editors from China/Hong Kong and mainland China to participate in the entire "Warcraft||". is under study. Due to the appearance of the dragons, the name of the new expansion has also been changed from the original "Dark Tide" to "The Phantom of the Dragons", and Blizzard has changed the "Warcraft||" that was originally scheduled to be released at the end of the yearwas delayed for half a year, which was the first "bounce" since the establishment of Blizzard. Lin Mu even suspected that Blizzard's tradition of "bounce tickets" began with him.

Directed by Tom Shadiak and starring Jim Carrey, Cheng Long and Zhang Manyu, the action-comedy blockbuster "Detective Plane Head: Hong Kong Raiders" was successfully closed in Hong Kong, and post-production will be completed in the United States. The Hollywood-Hong Kong joint film attracted a lot of media attention during filming, with Jim Carrey's hilarious performances and Cheng Long's Chinese/Chinese kung fu both selling points. Director Tom Shadiak is full of confidence in this film, and the cooperation of several actors in the film is also very pleasant, Cheng Long and Jim Carrey have even become good friends because of their co-starring in this film, and the two have laid the foundation for many future collaborations.

Paramount finally decided to launch the film simultaneously in most parts of the world during the Christmas schedule.

Lin Mu went to San Francisco at the end of August to visit the "Hulk" crew who were filming on location there, and Li Anan and the others were filming the scene of the helicopter chasing the Hulk in the mountains. According to the FAA, helicopters must fly at an altitude of no less than 500 feet, and the crew had to evacuate local residents in order to complete this ultra-low-altitude flight, so the helicopter was allowed to fly at an altitude of 75 feet.

Although Keanu Lee Anves is the lead actor of the film, because the Hulk in the film is completely computer-generated, Keanu Lee Anvis has no more than to endure the torment of makeup and green screen shooting, but his performance must pave the way for the appearance of the Hulk.

The Hulk's image is all synthesized by CGI technology, but the habits of the protagonist Banner must be reflected in the Hulk, so Keanu Lee Anvis must complete the ** of the Hulk's movements, thus showing a special physical association. To this end, Charlie, the special effects coordinator from ILM, designed the "Hulk Training Course" for Keanu Lee Anvis to improve his strength and perfect his movements.

Keanu Lee Anves has never been out of the film industry using CGI technology, and the addition of Lightmagic clearly makes the film stand out from the rest, making him feel as if he is making two completely different films.

Keanu-Lee's performance became a template for Hulk's emotions and reactions, but after the transformation, Hulk's massive body only existed in the computer, so the giant monster never appeared on the set. In order to replace the Hulk, the crew erected a rough model of the Hulk's head with a telescopic pole. In order to ensure how the Hulk appears in the frame and how the Hulk's massive body reflects and scatters light, ILM's special effects technicians also use a range of tools and methods to deal with this problem.

Although the Hulk is different from humans because of his lack of movement, he must also follow the laws of physics.

Ang Lee demanded that the Hulk not be clumsy and stiff, so the special effects artist of ILM specially invited a bodybuilding instructor to keep smashing the box to figure out the Hulk's actions when he was sabotaging.

Of course, this is a vast project. Ang Lee needed to be a behemoth that could lift, jump 3 miles, run up to miles per hour, and 15 feet in height. In order to complete this huge project. ILM used 180 special effects artists, the Hulk, to design 1C0 layers of skin and 1,165 muscles. In the preparation stage of the film. The design team of Industrial Light and Magic Land began to work intensively.

Lin Mu told Yang Zhiyuan the news that Blizzard was preparing to hold the National Electronic Technology Competition, and Yahoo had a smooth ride for a while. Without hesitation, he agreed to Linmu's offer of $10,000 in sponsorship, and Lin Mu then contacted Microsoft, Intel and IBM computer companies. The idea caught the attention of these electronics manufacturers, and Lin Mu eventually received more than $3 million in sponsorship from these companies.

Blizzard quickly came up with a specific implementation plan for the venue. According to their ideas. The competition is based on the Länder of the Federation. Spots are based on the number of participants in each state. In order to promote the sponsors as much as possible. There are three competitions in this competition. It is not a solo battle, a two-player team battle, and a three-player team battle. The maximum prize is $50,000. There are a total of 5 award levels. The total prize fund is more than $600,000. The news was announced in the newspapers. Almost all of the Earth Warcraft players were excited. Blizzard has announced that it will be rolling out a multiplayer PvP upgrade patch after this tournament. Other words. Warcraft will bid farewell to the era when strategy games could only be fought against computers. Be the first to enter a new era of cyber versus battlefields.

Stimulated by high bonuses. More than 20,000 people across the U.S. have signed up

Logitech, the main sponsor of the tournament, has launched a dedicated gaming mouse and keyboard specifically for the tournament. All contestants use Logitech keyboards and mice. Also from after this competition. Logitech keyboard and mouse have become standard for all hardcore Warcraft gamers.

After a week of fierce competition. Eight contestants and 16 teams made it to the finals. In the United States at the time. Esports is still a novelty for the media. Blizzard's pioneering work is groundbreaking. In the end, it went through a brutal knockout round. Calvin, a 17-year-old white teenager from California, won the singles title. Teams from Washington and New York took home the two-man and trio trophies.

The match was even broadcast live on television, mimicking modern sports competitions, with six commentators commenting on the video footage of the final and semi-finals.

In particular, the style of play used by 17-year-old Cavin, a 17-year-old white teenager from California, to defeat his opponent in the final, has become a popular fighting technique. More than 10,000 TV viewers tuned in to watch all the matches, which was the first of its kind for live esports TV.

After the finals, Blizzard's president, Alan Adhan, said in an interview that such a competition would continue to be a regular event for Blizzard. Due to the branding that has exceeded expectations from both the organizers and sponsors, next year's competition will be expanded to cover all of North America and Europe. Alan Adhan also took the opportunity to reveal that "Warcraft||The new expansion will be released earlier, so it's likely that Blizzard will use the new version of the game as a tournament item.

The beast trend set off by Blizzard has not subsided, and the crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" who returned from filming in the Caribbean has brought a huge "hurricane" to the media!

The more than four-month-long location filming finally ended at the end of September, and Lin Mu personally went to the airport to welcome the crew back. The warm sunshine of the Caribbean Sea left a clear mark on the faces of every member of the crew, and after a long absence, Lin Mu and James Cameron came to a warm hug.

"Cameron, you've got a tan!" Lin Mu quipped.

"I'm not going on vacation to the Caribbean!" Jens Cameron glared at Lin Mu angrily, but the implication was that he complained a little that he was exposed to the wind and sun, but Lin Mu, the shopkeeper, was at ease.

"Then you should be a surprise for me, right?" Lin Mu is full of expectations for these two sequel films, which took many months to shoot on location and a total investment of more than $300 million.

"When did I let you look?" James Cameron is confident in his work. "I seem to have missed a lot of things in these four months? I've heard that the guy at the Walk of Fame gave you two stars in one go, and you got another Oss trophy, why is your guy always so lucky? In front of Lin Mu, James Cameron made no secret of his jealousy.

"Soon you'll be honored with the same accolades!" Lin Chen patted him on the shoulder.

"In the eyes of the Oscar judges, James Cameron is just a movie that just keeps throwing money into movies, and then piles up movies with only gorgeous empty shells, such films can only win some technical awards at most, and that's what they say about me!" James Cameron shrugged helplessly at Lin Mu, the most famous director for shooting commercial films, his directing ability has always been unable to be recognized by the Oscars.

"The Oscar is not the only criterion for judging the value of a director, I believe that you will soon become the most valuable director in the world at the box office!" Lin Mu shifted the topic to the box office of the movie. "And it probably won't be surpassed!"

"Unless we keep working together and keep breaking the record for the highest box office!" James Cameron revealed his intention to work with Lin Mu for a long time. (To be continued.) )
