Chapter 1 Industry Exclusion
"Manager Zhang, do you need a game plan?"
Huanhai Game Exhibition, backstage of the factory area, employee passage.
Chen Lin took the information and stopped a company representative who had just come down from the game booth.
"No need, find someone else!"
Manager Zhang glanced at him and turned away impatiently.
Now is the closing ceremony after the completion of the game exhibition. A large number of figures have appeared in the originally empty employee passage, talking and laughing as they rush outside.
Chen Lin took a deep breath and continued to walk towards the other figures.
But before he could open his mouth, the people coming towards him frowned and avoided him as if they were avoiding the plague god, and their behavior was more direct than the previous one.
It wasn’t until the sixth company that the representative finally sighed and said, “Go away. We won’t cooperate with you.”
"To put it bluntly, you are a nobody, so no matter how good your proposal is, no one will be willing to take it, let alone invest in it."
"While you are still young, I advise you to hone your skills in Huanhai first. This way you can build up some connections."
After saying that, he left the venue without looking back, leaving Chen Lin standing there with the plan in his hand.
Representatives from other companies looked at him with pity, shook their heads, and moved aside.
The originally bustling backstage passage gradually became deserted.
Failed again...
Looking at their receding backs, Chen Lin remained silent.
I traveled to this parallel world for three years and became a college student majoring in gaming. I finally managed to graduate.
I thought I could get by with my experience from my past life, but reality slapped me in the face.
No one was willing to take orders from a small business like his.
"It's really realistic..."
Chen Lin put away the plan and took a look at the interface that only he could see .
【Game production order】
[Unlock progress: 9/10]
The progress above is not the number of games he has made.
But it was accumulated from game outsourcing.
Any orders related to games are accepted.
I was thinking.
Find a company to cooperate on a game, and you can unlock it smoothly and accumulate your first pot of gold at the same time.
But I found that I had thought the gaming industry was too simple.
The development trajectory of the gaming industry was different, and no one believed that his design would be popular, let alone attract investment funds.
On the contrary, it’s because of this incident.
He rejected the recruitment of Huanhai Group and accidentally offended the representative of that group.
Chen Lin still remembers it clearly now.
How dark the other person's face was after being rejected by me in public.
But there's no way.
He had heard that Huanhai's top management was autocratic and did not accept the opinions of their employees at all. They only viewed games as a tool to make money.
Just based on these few points.
He had no chance of success, so he could only refuse the recruitment.
The result is predictable. Under Huanhai's influence, other companies related to Huanhai kept their distance from him and tried to avoid him as much as possible.
“Ding ding…”
At this moment, the cell phone in my pocket rang.
Chen Lin picked it up and saw that it was from a gaming company he had worked with before. He quickly slid his finger to answer the call.
"Chen Lin, I'm sorry. We have found someone more suitable to write the character code that I promised you last time, so we won't bother you anymore."
"Change someone? Didn't you agree before that I should do it?" Chen Lin frowned and even stopped where he was.
“…”
The other party was silent for a moment, and finally sighed and said, "I know this is a bit unfair, but there is no other way. We still have to cooperate with Huan Hai. I will pay you the remaining balance immediately."
"From now on... you should find another job."
After saying that, the other party hung up the phone directly, and a beeping tone came to my ear.
Chen Lin reacted and clicked on the number and dialed it back, but it kept saying the line was busy and no one answered.
[You have been kicked out of the game outsourcing group 2. ]
【You have been kicked out of the source code exchange group. 】
[Don’t contact me anymore. I’m afraid Huan Hai might misunderstand me…]
…
Messages popped up one after another , and the work communication groups he had joined before also got wind of the news and kicked him out of the group directly.
Some colleagues in the industry even blocked him and tried to avoid him.
These people more or less make their livings from Huanhai's outsourced orders, so naturally they would not take risks for a newcomer like him.
But it would be too heartless to kick him out just after hearing some rumors.
We were still chatting in the group yesterday...
Due to insufficient manpower and funds, he could not implement any excellent plans he had.
Unless we look for new partners in other cities.
Think of this.
Chen Lin couldn't help but look up and look at the booth where Huan Hai was, as if he wanted to write it down.
At this moment, a sudden voice sounded in his mind.
[Congratulations, you have completed 10 game production orders and activated the strongest CG system. ]
[Unlock the movie imaging function, you can consume wealth to create exclusive promotional CG for the game, free for the first use. ]
[The second stage of the mission is started, game wealth value: 0/100W]
【Reward: Universal Game Engine】
Um?
Mission accomplished?
Chen Lin stood there in a daze, and then he was suddenly surprised.
If he guessed correctly, the final payment that had just been settled was included in the order, helping him complete the progress of the last order.
Excited, he quickly calmed down and called out the system to check its functions. This was his last chance to turn the tables!
However.
Just finished reading the above.
His expression suddenly froze.
"What the hell? The most powerful CG system?"
"Shouldn't it be the most powerful gaming system?"
Just like its name.
To put it simply, this system is specifically used to make promotional videos for games.
Various technologies can be used to perfectly restore game images, customize CG, and create the feeling of an epic blockbuster.
besides.
There is no game code, programming, modeling, art, rendering, engine, UI, special effects, or audio. You have to do it yourself.
puff!
Chen Lin spat out a mouthful of blood.
I finally completed ten production orders, and all he got was this piece of junk.
What’s the point of having great CG if there’s no game?
With his current resources, he can't create those 3A masterpieces from his previous life.
It's impossible for a 2D horizontal scrolling game to feel like an epic blockbuster, right?
"Well……"
"It seems that it is not impossible?"
Suddenly, Chen Lin was stunned.
His eyes couldn't help but fall on the information in his hand, and the four conspicuous big words.
Valiant Hearts: World War
As a very popular war-themed work in the previous life, the level of this game is absolutely unquestionable.
Although it is just a horizontal screen, it has a plot depth that is not inferior to other masterpieces, and it is also the limit of what he can do at present.
It was because of this copywriting that Representative Huan Hai wanted to recruit him into the company, which led to a series of events afterwards.
"A small horse pulls a heavy cart..."
“Maybe you can give it a try!”
Over the past three years, he has finally built the overall structure of this game, and it will take time to fill in the gaps.
Now that the problem of promoting CG has been solved, it saves him a lot of effort and money, and it should not be a problem for him to finish it alone.
If it wasn't for the purpose of activating the system, he would not have chosen to cooperate with those companies and take outsourcing orders.
Now that the activation was successful, he no longer had to look at the faces of those guys.
Having made up his mind, Chen Lin left the game exhibition directly.
After having a simple pancake on the street, I rode a shared bike back to my residence and turned on the computer to continue making it.
So I get up early and go to bed late every day, from sunrise to sunset.
Finally, after more than a month, all the polishing was completed and the data was copied to the computer.
"call--"
"Finally it's done."
Looking at the game platform and video website in front of him, Chen Lin was filled with emotion.
It took him so much time and effort to finish this game. It was really not easy.
Now, he can only put all his hopes on this game. Whether he can succeed depends on this!
After thinking about it, gently slide the mouse and click to confirm.
Not long after.
A game called "Valiant Hearts: The Great War" appeared on the Steam platform.
The homepage also comes with an inconspicuous CG animation and a few simple screenshots.
