After that, Lu Yu and Liu Mengyuan continued filming the movie.
......
A few days later.
The internal project group of Leisure Studio.
Inside the studio group, the employees who had already wandered all over Hengdian began to chirp and discuss what to do next.
Lü Rui: "Milky Candy and the others are busy with the filming plan of 'Final Defense Line'. President Lu and President Liu have now become the male and female leads of the movie. Wan Xiaotong and the others are busy preparing the card battle game. It seems that only we seem to be very idle?"
Hua Wu: "Milky Candy's group even created a 'Divine Drama Director Simulator' in the midst of their busy schedule. Why don't we also develop a new game to practice?"
He Chuming: "Speaking of this, I met Ma Yanyu from the Moe Girl group today. He said that their TCG game development has encountered some difficulties recently. Why don't we create a game to verify the technology to help them solve this difficulty?"
Everyone asked curiously: "What difficulties?"
He Chuming:
"Our company's newly developed 'Peach Blossom Land Battle Card' has many scenes involving live battles, and it also needs to be linked with the Peach Blossom Light Year platform for live events.
This involves... for example, how to design the live battle scenes and environment in the game,
how to restore the real atmosphere and interactivity of the battle platform,
and how to handle real-time interaction and comments during the battle with opponents, as well as a large amount of real-time data flow."
Ye Kun: "From this, it seems that we can verify these technologies if we can create a game related to live streaming?"
Wang Feifei: "The problem is that Peach Blossom Land's current size is already considerable, and players will definitely have more expectations for new works. What kind of live streaming simulation game should we create to avoid being cliché?"
Her words hit the nail on the head. Everyone discussed it, but ultimately couldn't come up with an idea.
......
While they were hesitating, suddenly, President Lu sent a message from the company email:
"Everyone, tomorrow, let's go to Furong Bridge in the north for team building and strolling."
The next day, all project team members who didn't have work on hand came to Furong Bridge.
Lu Yu explained with a smile while taking everyone around:
"This Furong Bridge is a great place I recently discovered. Look, what's around here?"
Everyone took a closer look. Wow, this place can simply be called a网红 (wanghong - internet celebrity) check-in street!
From the beginning of the bridge to the end on the opposite side, a large row of streamers were sitting by the bridge, both men and women.
Many girls had a mobile phone stand in front of them, and they kept making heart gestures and acting cute towards the phone. If a rich person rewarded them, they would clap their hands and cheer happily.
Lu Yu introduced while walking:
"Along this street to the end, there are all kinds of new streamers broadcasting here. Everyone on this street hopes to make a name for themselves and become a big streamer, but less than one in ten can truly become famous."
Everyone muttered in their hearts while walking:
"What's President Lu's purpose in bringing us to this street?"
"Hiss... Could it be that President Lu wants to say that if we don't work hard, we can only come to the street to do live streaming?"
However, strolling on this street is quite pleasing to the eye, because many people are attracted by the beautiful female streamers.
The eyes of many perverts widened instantly.
To be fair, if you look closely at these streamers... they are quite attractive!
Lu Yu saw the expressions of the employees and smiled slightly.
It was worth the painstaking effort he took to bring everyone here.
The reason he came here is very simple. What does Hengdian have the most of? Of course, it's beauty!
Many actresses who were eliminated in the audition stage, even if they are extras, have high looks.
Originally, this group of perverts was already enjoying themselves in Hengdian, and they had spent a lot of points for him these past few days.
So he decided to take advantage of the situation and completely cut off the other crooked thoughts of the employees!
......
Everyone continued to stroll along this网红 (wanghong - internet celebrity) street for a while.
Suddenly!
There was a fierce quarrel on the side of the street.
It turned out that in the corner of the bridgehead, there was an antique appraisal stall.
An old man was holding his antique ceramic vase and arguing loudly with the stall owner.
"You don't understand at all. What kind of expert are you? I specifically asked people from the auction house to look at this bottle. This is a genuine Qianlong-era item!"
The man said with a helpless smile: "Grandpa, don't get excited. No matter what you say, this thing is fake. It's a modern imitation."
"You're talking nonsense!"
The old man glared and angrily took out his booklet:
"Look, look, is there any difference from this museum catalog? Isn't it exactly the same? I spent 10 years of my retirement savings to buy this thing, and you say it's fake?"
The man said helplessly: "Say what you want. If you can send it to the auction house and sell it, then you're capable. But no matter how you explain it, in my opinion, this thing is fake. Fake can't be real, and real can't be fake!"
The old man became more and more excited:
"Do you know why I brought this thing to you? I've been unhappy with your live broadcast for a long time. You're swindling and cheating all over the country. I'm going to bring a real thing to your live broadcast room and give you a lesson!"
The argument became more and more intense, and soon attracted onlookers.
He Chuming suddenly slapped his head and said to the surrounding colleagues:
"I've got it! Let's make a live streaming simulator that simulates the daily life of a streamer. However, there are already many simulation games about the working life of streamers. We have to make a distinction. I think... let's make an antique appraisal live streaming simulator!"
Others: "'Antique Appraisal Live Streaming Simulator'?"
He Chuming had recently watched a lot of antique appraisal live streams. He became more and more excited as he spoke:
"That's right, look, it can be like this!
This game is mainly about letting players play an antique appraisal streamer. At the same time, he is also an antique middleman.
The purpose of his live broadcast is to collect antiques from ordinary people who don't know the market at low prices, and then sell them to collectors who know the market at high prices, earning the difference in between!
For example, ancient coins, ceramic antiques, etc. If the player identifies something as real, then he has to use deceptive means to lower the price as much as possible and then resell it.
Of course, in addition to the antique business, players can also watch jadeite rough stones in the live broadcast room.
The player's goal is to double the funds in his hands as much as possible!"
After He Chuming finished speaking his idea, everyone suddenly became excited!
Tang Yan: "You know what, you really know what you're talking about. It seems that there really isn't a similar gameplay on the market."
Ding Shaofu: "I think it's feasible, but I want to add a little bit. For example, we can completely let tomb raiders - that is, tomb robbers - break into the live broadcast room.
If they want to sell their goods, they have to judge the value of the items first, and they are very likely to ask the player for appraisal.
If the player can successfully identify the tomb raider, then he can also get generous rewards!"
The more everyone discussed, the more excited they became. That night, they returned to the hotel and began to summarize their ideas.
Soon, everyone initially drafted the core gameplay of the game and sent it to the project group:
Antique Appraisal Skill System: Players need to improve their ability to identify antiques by learning and upgrading their appraisal skills. The improvement of skills will affect the player's performance and income in the live broadcast.
Live Broadcast Interaction System: Players can interact with the audience in real time, such as answering questions raised by the audience, explaining the appraisal process, etc. These interactive behaviors can improve the audience's satisfaction and the popularity of the live broadcast.
Live Broadcast Room Decoration System: Players can freely decorate the live broadcast room, such as placing antique display cabinets, hanging artworks, and choosing background music to enhance the live broadcast room's viewing and attractiveness.
Peer Competition System: Players can freely choose to join the guild MCN, and whenever they encounter high-value treasures, there will be competition between peers.
Realistic Viewing Mode: After reaching a high enough level, players can unlock the realistic viewing mode. The game adopts a highly realistic antique display mode, and players can freely view and appreciate various precious antique cultural relics and understand their historical and cultural value.
Hua Wu nodded slightly after seeing everyone's design plan:
"Well... okay, that's it. Arrange the development immediately!"
......
As time continued, the development work proceeded in an orderly manner.
After all, in the positioning of the Leisure Studio group, this is just a small-scale game, and the amount of development work is not that large.
Moreover, the studio has now cultivated a bunch of veterans in the field of game development. Not long after the project was established, they asked the operation department to arrange the listing schedule.
Business Operations Xu Lu asked: "Miss Hua Wu, are we making a promotional video or a promotional poster this time?"
Hua Wu tilted her head and thought. According to her previous ideas, she would just make a poster to deal with it.
However, this time is different. President Lu led everyone to Hengdian and took the lead in performing. What kind of spirit is this!
He must be implying to the employees that they should also learn his spirit of doing everything personally!
So, Hua Wu nodded and said: "I will personally shoot the promotional video for 'Antique Appraisal Live Streaming Simulator'."
Soon, the promotional video was filmed and released on Weibo.
At the beginning of the promotional video, a simple live broadcast room is displayed, with various antique exhibits and cultural relics displayed on the shelves. The camera gradually focuses on Hua Wu with dark circles under her eyes.
Hua Wu said leisurely: "Hello everyone, I am your antique appraisal streamer tonight. Welcome to my live broadcast room. This is a magical place, full of the charm of antiques and the stories of history."
Accompanied by a mysterious BGM, Hua Wu began to carefully appraise antiques in the live broadcast room. She held a magnifying glass and focused on observing the details of the exhibits. With her explanation, the audience watching the live broadcast seemed to be on the scene, feeling the tension and excitement of the appraisal.
Then, the screen turned to the scene of Hua Wu interacting with the audience. She smiled and answered barrage questions, and the audience sent gifts and praises in the barrage.
Immediately afterwards, the promotional video began to display the game's various decorations, levels, and development systems.
Finally, the screen switched to the tomb robbing scene of a local grave robber. The police directly pinned them down and gave the streamer a thumbs up.
"If you are also interested in antiques, come to my live broadcast room and explore the mysterious world of antiques with me!"
"Peach Blossom Land's new career simulation game brings you a different experience"
"Coming soon, please look forward to it"
Below are comments from fans:
"Holy crap! This game is simply my dream since I was a child! It's great to be an antique expert in the game!"
"No need to say more, I watched the promotional video and was directly attracted! The graphics and gameplay of this game are great. I'm ready to become a top antique appraisal streamer!"
"I think this is not just a game, but also an opportunity to popularize antique culture and sinology. According to the characteristics of Peach Blossom Land's previous works, I think this work should not be too bad. I'm looking forward to it!"
"GKD, GKD!" (Give me quickly, Give me quickly - Internet slang for wanting something quickly)
......
At this time, Qin Ming's apartment, the principal of Daqin Media.
Qin Ming smiled slightly when he saw Peach Blossom Land's latest promotional video, picked up his phone and dialed a number:
"Hello, Assistant Zhou, please help me find out if we have signed any big Vs in the antique field, yes, okay, please arrange it immediately."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Ming smiled slightly.
Peach Blossom Land, since you have offended someone, then my MCN can slowly play with you!
Soon after, "Fengyue Antique Appraisal", a big V in the antique industry with 1 million followers, forwarded this promotional video and commented:
"First of all, as someone who has been in the antique industry for many years, I have to express my concern about the content setting of this game. The game tries to simulate the scene of antique appraisal live broadcast, but in my opinion, many settings are too simplified and completely divorced from the real antique appraisal process.
The antique industry is an extremely rigorous and professional field, which requires many years of learning and practice to master proficiently.
I do not agree to simplify this process into an entertainment game, which may mislead players' understanding and lead to more being deceived.
Therefore, I urge everyone to remain rational and not easily believe in the false scenes and exaggerated publicity in the game.
Finally, I hope that all game developers can have a correct attitude and not arbitrarily damage the reputation and image of the antique industry. Thank you!"
After this Weibo was released, it quickly caused an uproar!
Some fans of Peach Blossom Land exclaimed: "Good guy, it's just a game, why is it so serious? According to you, all racing games should not be released, because driving in reality is a very serious matter."
However, some fans of Fengyue Antique Appraisal retorted: "Can this be the same? Peach Blossom Land is making this game, and to put it seriously, it is a blasphemy against traditional culture!"
......
Although the two sides on the Internet were arguing endlessly, this did not affect the game development progress.
After weeks of development in Hengdian, the project file of "Antique Appraisal Live Streaming Simulator" was finally completed.
However, on the eve of releasing the game package to the game platform, an accident happened again!
Client programmer He Chuming suddenly said in the development group:
"It's not good, there's a big BUG. The code for the live broadcast room popularity logic in our game is reversed. The audience no longer likes to watch antique appraisal streamers appraise antiques, but likes to watch other messy things!"
"What the hell?" The others were dumbfounded and popped up in the development group.
Afterward, He Chuming explained the bug to everyone: if the audience keeps watching serious treasure appraisals, the popularity of the live stream will drop rapidly!
Xu Lu was shocked: "This... isn't this a contradiction? The core gameplay of our game is to attract the audience to watch treasure appraisals. If the audience leaves, what's the point of live streaming?"
He Chuming was also quite distressed: "Antique appraisal is originally the underlying gameplay of the game. This gameplay goal definitely cannot be canceled, otherwise it will completely become another game."
While sighing, everyone understood the reasons for these bugs.
As perverts, they had recently been completely fascinated by the beauties on the live streaming street, watching beauty live streams every day.
Unable to make a decision, they were about to pull Liu Mengyuan into the group.
Hua Wu stopped them, saying, "I think everyone should calm down a bit. We can't just look for General Manager Liu whenever something happens."
He Chuming: "Then how about letting Chief Supervisor Chu's AI take action?"
Hua Wu continued to shake her head: "No, we can't develop path dependence. Think carefully, can we find a way to integrate these contradictory designs, so that viewers who are not interested in antique appraisal can stay in the live stream, and the streamers can also make money by reselling antiques and finding bargains?"
Muttering to herself for a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up:
"This time, let's continue to package the bug as a game feature!"
He Chuming: "The problem now is, how do we package this bug?"
Hua Wu suddenly smiled:
"Regarding this matter, I've gained inspiration through my strolls on网红 street these past few days. We can do this..."
......
Soon, it was the day of the game's launch.
