Chapter 247: You let a group of bachelors make a game for women?
The announcement of the giant AI program undoubtedly caused a sensation in the entire domestic and even foreign markets.
Major manufacturers held meetings for urgent discussions.
They have not forgotten that it was Juying that brought up the popularity of the metaverse in the past few years, attracting a large amount of capital.
But found out.
This concept is still too early for today's technological level and cannot be realized in a short period of time.
Now this happens again.
It is inevitable to have doubts.
"If you ask me, this is definitely just a gimmick, designed to defraud money."
"I also think that AI, in addition to computing power, also requires a huge database. Can current equipment support it?"
Netizens who received the news were also discussing the matter intensely, and related topics and debates were everywhere.
"That's not necessarily true. It is said that Juying invests real money every year in this project, adding up to at least tens of billions."
“AI has a strong ability to self-learn. Once the information base reaches a critical point, it is indeed possible to experience explosive growth in a short period of time.”
"It's over, it's over. We're going to create an artificial intelligence like MOSS in The Wandering Earth and wipe out humanity."
“I’m more interested in knowing whether AI will replace human labor…”
The topic of AI (artificial intelligence) has actually existed on the Internet for a long time, but it was not very popular.
The rise of the domestic science fiction wave has undoubtedly provided a stage for this topic.
Coupled with the fuse of the huge announcement, it was finally completely ignited, causing a public opinion storm in the country.
Originally, many people and manufacturers did not believe it and just viewed it as a fun thing.
But in the next few days, the situation changed.
Following Jupyter Notebook, several other major technology companies at home and abroad have publicly announced that their self-developed AI programs will be officially launched in the middle of the year.
When the news came out, all parties were shocked.
If they were told that only Juying was taking the lead, they might not believe it.
But now so many of them have suddenly emerged, and they are all big technology companies, so the meaning is completely different.
They are really competing for the AI market!
…
On the other side, inside the Honghuang studio.
Chen Lin, who was stepping up the publicity for several million-level games, finally heard a long-lost voice in his mind.
【Congratulations, you have reached the seventh stage. 】
【Get reward: Intelligent AI program】
[Phase 8: Game wealth value (3.7 billion/4 billion ), games with sales of tens of millions (1/5)]
"Finally caught up."
Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he prepared early and has been promoting several games such as "Sekiro".
Although it was a few days late, we still successfully achieved the sales of 7 models with 5 million copies and received the rewards for the seventh stage.
but.
When he saw the rewards for the eighth stage, he was stunned.
Not to mention the 4 billion wealth, it is not too difficult for him now.
But five games with sales of tens of millions are not something you can just come up with easily.
Currently, only Red Dead Redemption has achieved this.
After the sales of the remaining few models exceeded 5 million, the growth rate slowed down a lot. It is not easy to break through the 10 million mark in a short period of time.
Apart from accumulating time, it can only be achieved through phenomenal games, so there is no need to rush.
Thinking of this, he got up and left the office, called Lao Song and Lao Li, and started setting up the necessary server room.
…
Two weeks later.
All the members of the Dawn team gathered together and looked at the program called "Honghuang Intelligence" that had just been installed on their computers in shock.
"Song... Boss Song, is this AI program really obtained by Boss Chen?"
The employees swallowed and looked at Lao Song in disbelief.
The topic of AI has been very hot recently, and many game manufacturers are talking about whether it will have an impact on the gaming industry.
Some even approached companies with more mature technologies to discuss cooperation.
But they just took out a complete program!
"Don't worry about it. Mr. Chen will definitely have his own way."
Old Song said in a deep voice without answering their questions.
He was already used to Chen's behavior of taking out new toys from time to time, and he knew better than to ask any more questions.
After all, Chen Lin had already told them about the trend of AI at the beginning of the year, so it was not surprising that they were preparing in advance.
The only thing that surprised him was the intelligence of this AI program.
Although he didn't know the level of Juying and several other major technology companies, he was sure that the program Chen Lin came up with was definitely not inferior to any of them!
to this end.
He and Lao Li worked tirelessly, led a team of core members, and spent hundreds of millions of dollars to build servers and databases.
And we purchase the most advanced GPUs and equipment currently available.
It was finally completed today. They have their own AI database, and their computing power has been increased dozens of times.
“Is it really worth spending so much money on the procedure?”
Old Li stood aside and muttered to himself.
That’s nearly 500 million yuan.
Even though they have made over 4 billion from games and movies recently, they can't afford to spend it like this.
These are their capital to fight against capital.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. You know the current chip market. The price changes every day. It's better to buy it early than to be cheated later."
Lao Song certainly understood Lao Li’s feelings. After all, before the server and database were built, he couldn’t guarantee that this AI program was really useful.
That's why we were so anxious to gather the employees together and start the first round of testing.
"Okay, everyone go back to your seats and try out the new procedure. If you have any questions, please let me know."
"OK!"
"Don't worry, Boss Song."
"Leave it to us!"
As the first pilot of the Honghuang AI program, the employees of the Dawn team are very excited.
I have long wanted to try this recently hyped thing to see if it can help them with game production.
soon.
Under the supervision of Lao Song and Lao Li, they turned on the installed Honghuang Intelligence.
[1. Honghuang Intelligent Assistant (HHAI)]
2. Text Processing (NLP)
3. Graphics Processing (GP)
4. Computer Vision (CV)
5. Speech Recognition (ASR)
…
What they saw was a row of functional options that they had never seen before.
There are also detailed subcategories under each option, which is very rich.
"This smart assistant looks quite interesting. In that case, help me...generate photos of me and my wife!"
A Guang, who was not far from here, was typing into the text box while speaking.
【I'm sorry, please tell me your name. 】
Within two seconds, a line of text appeared on the screen.
"You don't even understand me? I'm A Guang, the head of the art team at Honghuang Studio!"
A Guang entered another line of text.
The next second, the smart assistant responded immediately.
[According to the search, the art team leader of Honghuang Studio, "A Guang", does not have a wife. Please accept my condolences...]
???
Ah Guang was stunned for a moment.
The two people nearby came over to take a look and immediately laughed out loud.
"Hahaha... Guang was actually mocked by an AI."
"That's strange. It actually knows that you don't have a wife?"
The two of them were amazed and returned to their seats to try it themselves.
For a while.
There were exclamations in the office area.
The employees were shocked to find that although this AI program could not directly meet their complex requirements, it could solve a lot of complicated basic tasks in a very short time, greatly improving work efficiency.
In this way.
They can free up more manpower to do other high-precision tasks.
It is definitely a good auxiliary tool.
Once this kind of thing comes out, it will definitely have a huge impact on the gaming industry and increase the overall speed of game production.
Commonly known as the King of Rolls Artifact!
No wonder those big technology companies attach so much importance to this project and are willing to invest huge amounts of money in it.
These features alone are enough to make many manufacturers willing to pay out of their own pockets and make a fortune.
This move.
It will undoubtedly promote the rapid development of the entire gaming industry!
…
"Well, with the emergence of AI, I estimate that within half a year, all manufacturers' projects will be accelerated. We must also adapt to this new era."
The accelerated development of the industry and industrial upgrading are not without benefits for Chen Lin.
At least the games on the market will enter an unprecedented period of explosive growth, greatly increasing the proportion of entertainment for the entire population.
in short.
The cake has been made bigger.
Many small workshops that lack manpower resources have also had the opportunity to rise, and the competitive pressure will further increase.
"I've seen a lot of manufacturers announce recently that they have introduced AI programs and are planning to use them in games."
In the conference room, Old Song and Old Li sat on both sides.
In addition, the team managers who had just been promoted under them were also called in to discuss countermeasures.
"These guys are not good at making games, but they are faster than each other in trying to ride on the popularity of the game." Old Li curled his lips.
"That being said, we are actually still in the exploratory stage." Old Song flipped through the documents in front of him.
"How about we try something new?" Xiaoli, who was in charge of recording the meeting, looked up.
"Do you have any good ideas?" Chen Lin's eyes fell on her.
"Uh, this..." Xiao Li was a little embarrassed, "It's just... Mr. Chen, you see, our company has made so many types of games, but they are basically male-oriented. Now that the market is expanding, female players can also be considered, such as AI lovers..."
Although they are usually required to play their own games when they are free, so as to avoid people saying that Honghuang employees don’t even know the games they made.
But for female employees like them, that kind of fighting and killing game is still too tiring to play.
"Well, that's a good idea."
Chen Lin and the people below's eyes lit up.
As for games targeting females, the market was not so big in the past, and basically only Dongshanju and a few other manufacturers were making them.
Now that the industry has expanded, female players have gradually formed a group that cannot be ignored, and they also have their own gaming demands.
As a studio whose goal is to change the gaming industry.
How can they afford to neglect one while gaining the other?
All right.
In fact, it is just to expand the influence.
"It's not easy to make a game for women..."
Old Li touched his bald head and looked at the other men.
Especially those in the art group, they all had bitter faces.
Many of them are still single, and it is really weird to ask them to make those shiny dolls.
I just can't get that point.
Moreover, most of the employees in the production team are men.
Let them figure out women's preferences?
It's easier for a sow to climb a tree than this.
“It’s a real challenge in terms of design.”
Seeing their reactions, Chen Lin touched his chin, looking thoughtful.
Games for women are no less attractive than those for men. They focus more on delicate thoughts and gorgeous and romantic feedback.
Let these rough guys do it...
The scene was so beautiful that I couldn't bear to look at it.
To be honest, even Chen Lin himself has never played games like Shining Nikki, Light and Night Romance, and Love Story, let alone come up with a plan.
“In fact, it is not necessary to make a game that is completely female-oriented.”
Suddenly, Lao Song's voice sounded.
Everyone turned their heads when they heard this, looking puzzled.
"Not completely female-oriented? Wouldn't that make it neither fish nor fowl?"
"Yeah, if we don't please both sides, wouldn't that be even worse?"
"Or do you have a new idea, Boss Song?"
In response to their questions, Lao Song smiled.
After looking at Chen Lin, he said, "Have you forgotten? Our main focus this time is AI. Why not just let the players choose their own targets?"
