Chapter 172: Are you sure you are making games?
Just as Chen Lin and others were discussing.
The duel between Xiaoli and Xiaowei on the stage has reached the most critical moment.
As Xiaowei shouted in a childish way, the black magic girl in front of her moved, turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the opposite side, holding up the staff in her hand.
"drink!"
A loud shout.
The terrifying black magic energy gathered at the top of the staff and instantly turned into a huge black ball of light.
The attack of the Harpy on the opposite side is only 1300 points.
If she was hit head-on, she would definitely be killed, which made Xiaoli so anxious that she scratched her head.
final.
When the attack is about to fall.
She noticed the time prompt on the duel disk, telling her that there were cards that could be activated at this time.
Look down.
It turned out to be the card she had casually covered in the last round to trick Xiaowei, and she couldn't even remember what the effect was.
"Forget it, never mind, I'll activate this card!"
Screaming, she quickly flipped open the cover card on the device, and a green magic card with a lightning symbol came into view.
[Dash]
[Magic/Quick Attack/N]
[Effect: You can activate this effect by targeting 1 face-up monster on the field, and that monster's ATK increases by 700 until the end of this turn.]
"Wow! It's an attack-boosting magic!"
When Xiaoli saw the card effect, she cheered. It turned out that she had created such a powerful card.
According to the above introduction.
A quick-play magic card with a lightning symbol. After it is set, it can be activated during the opponent's turn.
How dare I hesitate? I shouted immediately: "I...I activate this card on the Harpy! Increase her attack!"
As the voice fell, a group of wild boar special effects appeared on the field, presenting the momentum of thousands of horses galloping.
A red light also shone from the harp girl's body, and her aura suddenly surged, rising to the same level as the Dark Magician Girl.
After a series of numbers scrolled, the attack became 2000 points.
Both sides are tied!
This was something no one inside or outside the venue had expected.
It was just a simple test, but it was full of ups and downs and twists and turns.
They couldn't help but secretly sweat.
I secretly thought that the immersion of this game was incredible!
And on the court.
Xiaowei, who had been confident of victory, also panicked because of this sudden change.
He quickly looked at the device and found that the magic card called [Whirlwind] in his hand could actually be activated at this node.
After taking a look at the effect, he quickly pulled it out and put it in the magic card area.
"I'll launch a whirlwind to disrupt your charge!"
The effect of the whirlwind is to destroy a magic or trap on the field.
She thought that as long as she could disrupt the opponent's charge, she would be able to remove the Harpy's attack bonus.
In the end, her black magic girl wins.
However……
"The effect of quick-attack magic is not affected by this simple destruction. Your whirlwind is useless at this time."
Chen Lin's voice sounded slowly from the side.
Useless?
Didn't she say she was lonely?
Xiaowei's expression froze, while Xiaoli cheered.
In an instant.
The evenly matched Black Magician Girl and Harpy flew high into the sky and collided fiercely with gorgeous attack special effects.
Boom!
After an explosion special effect.
Both sides perished together and turned into points of light that quickly dissipated.
All that was left was a mess on the field and two dazed people.
Seeing this, Chen Lin nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, such a complex chain has no operating problems. It's OK for now. You can come down first."
"Ah? Is this the end?"
"We haven't finished yet, how about letting us finish this game first?"
Xiaoli and Xiaowei reacted and felt a little unsatisfied.
"Okay, the device is still in the testing phase, so the demonstration ends here. We will also have AR glasses and PCs for you to test later, which will be our next main products."
Although holographic projection is great, it has extremely high requirements for equipment and venue, so he has only customized this set of equipment now.
It's okay to use it as a publicity gimmick and gaming experience.
Don’t even think about mass production in the short term.
On the contrary, lightweight devices such as AR glasses can be mass-produced, and when promoted together with PC games, sales should be good.
“Are there any more AR glasses to test? ”
Hearing his words, the two women were immediately surprised.
He quickly took off the duel disk device in his hand, and surrounded by technical staff, began to wear their dedicated AR, a pair of portable glasses like sunglasses, and then started the host transmission device next to him.
This set of equipment is very convenient and can be picked up anytime and anywhere.
As long as you put on the glasses, you can achieve real-time screen projection and project the game images loaded in it.
Moreover, devices can be connected over short distances to share game screens, exchange data, and achieve regional battles.
The performance is definitely far superior to many ARs on the market.
"Wow! This is amazing too!"
As soon as Xiaoli and Xiaowei put on the glasses and turned on the equipment according to the staff's instructions, they were shocked by the scene in front of them and couldn't help but exclaim.
Others saw the first-person perspective of what they were seeing through a large screen projection nearby.
There were ancient pillars standing in the studio and a crystal blue digital screen.
And because of the shared screen, they can see each other and the same scene.
Even the virtual duel disk floating in front can be seen clearly.
"Okay, let's have another duel according to the rules just now." Chen Lin's voice came from the side.
The two women, who were in amazement, reacted immediately.
He quickly followed the prompt and clicked on the online battle option on the virtual duel disk.
【duel!】
[Loading venue...]
Accompanied by a prompt.
A light suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, and a familiar dueling arena was constructed on the open space of the studio, with four ancient pillars standing just at the edge of the arena.
At the edge of the venue, one can see Mr. Chen, Mr. Song and the employees, as if they were watching the game from the sidelines.
This combination of virtual and reality is full of technology.
As long as there is a large enough open space, two players with AR devices can fight in real time.
This experience is really great!
Excited, the two immediately followed the previous steps and started a new duel using the virtual interface.
Their childish shouts echoed throughout the studio and could be heard clearly even from a long distance away.
The employees passing by had strange expressions on their faces, wondering what was going on with these two people in there, maybe they had epilepsy.
fortunately.
The test didn't last long.
After more than an hour of testing and debugging, the equipment was finally adjusted to the optimal state and could run their game perfectly.
"Okay, everyone has worked hard today, let's go back first."
There was no problem with the equipment, so Chen Lin was naturally in a good mood and said to the employees.
After testing the PC side, Xiaoli and the other person quickly stood up and came to him with joy.
"Mr. Chen, this game is fun, especially when playing with friends. The combination of various cards is really interesting."
"Is this the game we're going to take to the Asia Anime and Gaming Expo next?"
Chen Lin glanced at them and nodded: "Yes, this exhibition is much larger than last year's Huanhai Exhibition. It will target domestic and foreign markets, so we have to prepare carefully."
The original Huanhai Exhibition was just an offline gathering hosted by Huanhai for small factories to display small games.
His fame in the country is not even on the list.
But this exhibition, jointly organized by major animation, film, television and game companies such as Bilibili, is different. It is very well-known in China.
At this time of year every year, a large number of anime and game enthusiasts rush to the scene to participate in this unique large-scale event.
Many people even travel thousands of miles just for the various anime and game peripherals, as well as signing sessions by famous authors and other events.
Because some things can only be bought there.
"By the way, you two should come over together when the time comes. You have both played this game before, so you can explain the rules of the game to those who come to the exhibition."
"Ah? Can we go too?"
Xiaoli and the other girl's eyes lit up and they immediately became excited, and their eyes turned into the shape of money.
Participating in exhibitions = public travel = high temperature subsidies
After rounding off, it is equivalent to paid vacation!
Besides, they already like anime and have wanted to participate in this kind of activity for a long time, so how could they refuse?
"Okay, okay, let's go! We're going!"
"Thank you, Mr. Chen! Then we will go back and prepare."
The two looked at each other and left hand in hand.
Chen Lin asked Lao Song to find another group of technicians who were willing to go out. After all, there were a lot of equipment to be installed this time, and it could not be done by just a few people.
There are at least a dozen people including the front desk and the back office.
If there are not enough people, we have to recruit a few temporary workers from Qizhou to do the hard labor.
Finish these preparations.
He then returned to the office and sent the previously agreed-upon video file of "Resident Evil Part II" to Su Peng.
"Manager Su, I'd like to give you a booth in exchange for the exclusive broadcast rights of this movie for a month, right?"
On the phone, Chen Lin chuckled and said to Su Peng.
"How can I lose money? I made a profit. I have already arranged everything for you at the booth. When the time comes, Mr. Chen can just send someone to take over."
For large-scale exhibitions like this that cover the entire country, manufacturers need to pay a fee to participate, and the better the location, the higher the fee.
However, thanks to Su Peng's connections, Honghuang doesn't have to spend any money. He just needs to spend his own money on the decoration.
The funds from several CG movies have not yet been fully recovered, and the money earned from the games was previously used to open up the online game market and develop new games.
In addition to the studio operating costs, Honghuang no longer has much funds left.
It would be best if you could save this money.
But apart from this matter, Chen Lin had another important matter to discuss.
So after chatting for a while, he said, "By the way, I have an anime here. Can you help me put it on the shelves? It would be best if it can be promoted before the exhibition."
"Animation? What kind of anime is it?" Su Peng asked puzzledly.
"It's a promotional CG for our new game, but it's a bit long."
"How long?"
"Episode 224."
“Puff!…cough cough cough…how much??”
From the other end of the line came the sound of Su Peng coughing violently due to choking, and he was obviously frightened by the number.
224 episodes, even the annual series is not this intense!
Are you planning to switch to making long-form animation?
I thought.
When Honghuang attends the comic convention this time, they can just bring out a random short animation, or they can simply use the previously released "Initial D" and "The Cooking Master Boy" as their showcase.
After all, these dramas are quite popular on Bilibili right now.
Unexpectedly, they directly took out a 224-episode movie.
Even though he had been working in the video industry for so many years, he was still shocked.
This Honghuang Studio might really be a film and television company disguised as a gaming company as rumored!
