Chapter 152 Big Business is Coming (Second Update)
The goal of this game is to let players help find equipment and rescue the squirrels, so as not to let the squirrels owe too much karma.
Sir Big Tail hopes to find the location of the instrument and rescue the people inside within five years, so Fang Cheng tries to make the process more attractive and easier for players to participate.
In order to make this game more interesting, he and the squirrels asked for schematic diagrams of various spaceships, and then pinched different types of spaceships to give players more motivation to search for wrinkles, rescue squirrels, and obtain rewards to purchase spaceships. .
To fight against the Shadow, he added a variety of weapon systems to the imaginary ship and provided a large number of upgrade paths.
In order to prevent players from not knowing their goals and to reduce the difficulty, he specially introduced the Alpha auxiliary robot to make the game not too difficult.
Although he had done a lot, he still felt too bored.
The whole process is to fly forward, set the automatic forward direction according to Alpha's prompts, lock the fire when seeing the enemy, control the spacecraft to avoid shadows and various obstacles along the way, and then find other squirrels and come back.
In fact, just seeing squirrels is enough. There will be magic spells exerted by Fang Cheng on the spaceship. These will automatically protect other squirrels, but having them next to the player will make them more immersive.
You may encounter various monsters extended by shadows in the middle, and because of the swallowing characteristics of shadows, the more shadows you destroy, the higher the probability of being targeted by a large shadow, and you will definitely fail in the end.
There is almost no plot, and the goal is just to save people and find equipment. The only way to play is to pilot the spaceship to avoid the attacks of shadows. I can't think of anything fun at all.
Let No. 1 try it, Fang Cheng saw No. 1 explode and die a few minutes later.
It itself was protected by Fang Cheng's magic and could survive the explosion and return to the spacecraft. When the players arrive, it doesn't matter. Just abandon them and resurrect them in the spirit gathering array.
The spaceship also appeared outside almost instantly, also regenerated by the spirit gathering array.
Except for a small amount of mana, there was no loss in the whole process. However, Snow Squirrel No. 1 still hugged his shoulders and said tremblingly: "It's terrible! After sitting on it, I immediately remembered the incident of being chased by the shadow before. This kind of thing can Is it called a game?"
Numbers 2 and 3 looked at the spacecraft with lingering fear: "Do humans really like this thing? I feel like this is a torture instrument."
"Agree." Sir Big Tail nodded repeatedly, " Every time I want to drive a spaceship, I am full of fear, and I have to listen to music to relieve it."
"Me too."
"I am the same, I must have standard music before I dare to drive, the level of sailing and the quality of the speakers It's directly proportional."
Out of curiosity, No. 1 played the music, and Fang Cheng discovered that this music was specially composed by the squirrels to relieve the driver's tension and fear.
The music is majestic, but also tinged with sadness. The various instruments blend together softly, and the wonderful chords make the whole piece shocking and inspiring.
After listening to it for a while, Fang Cheng discovered that this piece of music actually coincided with the way of heaven, and couldn't help but curiously asked: "Who composed this piece?"
"A legendary musician among us squirrels is also a genius spaceship pilot. It took three years of continuous research and finally found this piece of music that can relieve the driver's fear to the greatest extent." "
That's it...then, can I use it as the background music of the game?"
" Of course, it's copyright-free, and if it's you, the boss, you can use it however you want."
After integrating music into the game, Fang Cheng felt that the game was a little more interesting.
But still boring.
Returning to the studio with the game, he found that he had been working on it for another weekend without realizing it.
Fortunately, this time he did not forget about going to work. When he got to his position, he continued to think about his game, and the more he thought about it, the more entangled he became.
The Living Immortal vest is no longer available. Many players have already guessed that Fang Cheng is the Living Immortal, and like a group of brainless fans, they have begun to deduce the deeper meaning of Fang Cheng's actions.
Some people say that Fang Cheng wants to play for tickets, some say that he does it because some games cannot pass the review, but the most widely circulated theory is that he is making the next big move, using free games to attract traffic to his "Game Inn", and finally creating a unique His game information platform.
According to their understanding of Fangcheng, this platform does not require the introduction of advertising, and there is no capital involvement. The administrators with high-intensity patrols do their best, and the website is built to perfection.
Every detail was done perfectly, and the scalability of the entire website was surprisingly good. It was absolutely impossible to say that Fang Cheng did it unintentionally.
It can be seen that Fangcheng not only makes good games, but is also very ambitious. They come not only to make good games, but even to regulate the game information market.
Since the living immortal cannot use it, he is not willing to release such a boring game. I wonder if anyone is willing to come and provide him with an opportunity to promote the game?
Seeing Fang Cheng frowning, Wang Xiaoying's eyes lit up.
The boss is struggling!
Excitedly, Wang Xiaoying poked the monkey opposite her and whispered, "Look at the boss."
The monkey glanced at Fang Cheng and became equally excited.
The boss is struggling!
Anyway, when Fang Cheng frowned, something good would probably happen.
It won't be long before a game that is both popular and popular will appear, allowing players to fall into a new carnival.
However, after waiting all morning, the planners did not see Fang Cheng throw out the new game.
Instead, during lunch time, Xu Qingling received a call, and after whispering to Fang Cheng, the two left the studio and went out to eat.
Finding that there was no new game this time, the four of them were extremely disappointed. They could only eat in boredom, and then discuss whether there was a new game or whether the boss was planning to use the previous game to enlarge his skills.
If you were to expand your skills, which one would it be?
Fang Cheng and Xu Qingling walked out and saw their old acquaintance, Gao Tianyun, on the first floor.
Gao Tianyun frowned at this time, looked at the two of them and asked: "Two, go this way."
Together they went to a relatively quiet Chinese restaurant. After Gao Tianyun asked if he had any taboos, he chose one of the more famous ones here. combo.
During the interval before eating, he first briefly explained the whereabouts of the investment he had received from Fangcheng Studio.
Not long after receiving the investment, Gao Tianyun's research institute made a small breakthrough in the field of VR.
This small breakthrough is that through the matching of screen color and center of gravity, it can effectively alleviate players' 3D vertigo and other uncomfortable symptoms, and greatly reduce the discomfort of VR driving in cars, airplanes, etc., thus improving the sense of immersion and reality.
So, Gao Tianyun enthusiastically invested in opening up a production line, and then discovered a rather tragic problem.
He had the equipment, but he didn’t have the game.
There are some small games on the market that can be adapted, but using this kind of VR flight simulator is like using an anti-aircraft cannon to kill mosquitoes, which is completely unnecessary.
Some flight simulation games are usable, but those flight games are famous for their realistic simulations. If you want the plane to fly, you have to press the keys on the keyboard repeatedly, then turn on Caps Lock, press once, hold down shift, press once, and hold down ctrl. do it again.
If you want your VR flight simulator to be able to run this kind of game, you have to ask the other party to adapt it again, but the other party obviously doesn't want to do it. After searching for three days, Gao Tianyun finally had no choice but to find Fang Cheng.
"Brother Fang Cheng, you are the only one I have." Gao Tianyun said with tears in his eyes, "For the sake of you being a shareholder of the company, give me a hand. Money is not an issue. I will never treat you badly with a guaranteed share plus dividends. Yours."
"Well..."
Seeing that Fang Cheng was struggling, Gao Tianyun immediately realized that Fang Cheng had a big killer in his hand, and immediately asked excitedly: "Boss Fang..." "
I don't know if this game is fun, but You can give it a try."
"Boss Fang's game might not be fun!"
We decided to use Fang Cheng's new game as our escort, but how to release it became another problem.
This VR flight simulator requires special peripherals, which increases its cost and makes its positioning a bit awkward.
Those who already have an all-in-one VR machine will not buy this device. If they don’t have one, they will not particularly want to buy a VR flight simulator that can only play one game.
Just when Gao Tianyun was at a loss again, Xu Qingling, who was sitting next to Fang Cheng, thought for a moment and then asked, "Can I see the finished model?" "Okay
."
Taking out his phone, Gao Tianyun showed the finished model to him. Fang Cheng and Xu Qingling.
VR flight simulators look a bit unfashionable. Players need to sit in a cabin-like device and look a bit silly when wearing gloves and helmets.
There will also be bumps and various sounds during the game, which makes the machine seem a bit noisy, which is expected to have an impact on sales.
After watching for a while, Xu Qingling frowned and said, "Boss Gao, you can't do this."
"Why can't you do this?" Gao Tianyun asked doubtfully.
"Privacy is not done well. Today's young people like to do many things alone, such as watching movies alone, singing K alone, bowling alone, etc. If you let them do this, it is a public execution." "They
can Buy one and take it home."
"This is not your all-in-one VR machine. It occupies too much space and is very cost-effective. The most suitable place for this thing is a small square in a shopping mall. It doesn't take up space and can't be left at home. Far away, you can play a game when you have free time. If the effect is good, it can also attract traffic to the mall, and the person in charge of the mall will not hate it."
Clicking on the drawing function of the photo, Xu Qingling reached out and drew a few strokes on the photo, and continued Said: "The privacy function must be ensured. It is best to have a separate small area to block everything, and take sound insulation and other measures to avoid embarrassing players watching outside. In addition, disinfection must be done well, no one wants to sit in it On the hot mat..."
Xu Qingling doesn't know whether the game is fun or not, but she understands people's psychology today.
They love to play, and they are also face-saving. If you give them a personal space full of privacy, they will have a lot of fun.
After listening to Xu Qingling's explanation, Gao Tianyun benefited a lot, but he was still a little confused: "Is this really possible?" "Let's
try it. Use one to test the water in a nearby mall first. Anyway, you only need one. Seeing the market's acceptance, just send someone to keep an eye on this place and do statistics."
After listening to Xu Qingling's suggestion, Gao Tianyun finally made up his mind.
Done!
He immediately stood up and apologized, then went out to check out. When he returned to his company, he called and made modifications according to Xu Qingling's suggestion. The next day, a modified VR flight simulator was delivered to the first floor of the mall.
Fang Cheng's new game "Squirrel Spaceship" has been placed here, and the entire VR flight simulator follows Xu Qingling's suggestion to protect the player's privacy very well. No matter how loud the player makes in it, there will be no problem. .
The payment method for the game is two yuan per time, and there are three chances of death after purchase.
After the first purchase, players can register an account, and all information will be recorded in this account. This allows the player's progress to be connected to the Internet and saved, and can be used in other VR flight simulators again.
When Gao Tianyun, who personally promoted the VR flight simulator, moved the machine to the mall, the person in charge of the mall didn't seem to want to keep it.
Staring at the slightly huge VR flight simulator, he said awkwardly: "It's too big, and there may not be many people playing it. It's a bit wasteful for you to move it here. It's better not to spend this wasted money." "
We will get 28% of the profit. , we are two, you are eight." Gao Tianyun said immediately.
Anyway, this machine is for trial operation, so it doesn’t hurt to have a higher share ratio.
The person in charge smiled bitterly: "No one is playing, so it's useless no matter how high the share is." "
Eight hundred yuan a day, including electricity costs, and the share is calculated separately. We start renting for one month, and if it is less than one month, it will be treated as one month."
The person in charge quickly mentally calculated the profits and found that the business was good.
Part of this money is handed over to the mall, and part is his bonus. He can easily make extra money without having to take responsibility for anything. There is no reason to refuse this kind of thing.
So, he agreed with Gao Tianyun and let the machine stay.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Gao Tianyun returned to the company, ready to rest for a while before going to see the effect. Unexpectedly, he was a little tired after a day of running, and fell asleep on the table as soon as he touched the chair.
When he woke up, he saw that four hours had passed and it was five o'clock in the afternoon.
Wiping away the saliva, he found that his mobile phone was hot. A stranger actually made more than 20 calls, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
He dialed back in confusion. He heard the other party answer the call in less than a second, and then said eagerly: "You answered the phone!" "What's wrong? The
machine is broken!" Gao Tianyun also asked nervously.
"No, there's nothing wrong with the machine. It's just...do you have any extra machines there?"
"...Yes."
He brought another machine to the mall with confusion. Gao Tianyun finally understood why the other party was so anxious.
It's the beginning of spring, and the temperature is still low, but customers are lining up in a long line with their hands clasped and their necks hunched, waiting eagerly in front of their company's VR flight simulator.
When the game inside was over, someone immediately went in and drove the last person away, and then he couldn't wait to sit in.
Seeing this scene, Gao Tianyun was stunned.
In a daze, he seemed to have returned to last year's Magic City Game Exhibition. The same group of people lined up to play "The Healer" back then were exactly the same as they are now.
Both times were new machines, and both times were Fang Cheng’s games. The similar scenes made him couldn’t help but smile, and further strengthened his determination to join hands with Fang Cheng to create virtual reality.
Then, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called the person in charge of the production line: "Hurry up, big business is coming."
