Chapter 377: Ancient Costume? Idol Drama?
"Not bad, he looks quite energetic."
Just as the employees were talking about it.
Suddenly, Chen Lin's voice sounded behind them.
"Mr. Chen!"
"Mr. Chen, you are here."
Everyone was shocked and turned around quickly.
Old Li, on the other hand, had a delighted look on his face and grinned.
"Mr. Chen, do you think I'm good like this?"
"Well, it suits your style, but I remember this character is the one who interacts with the players the most in the sect, right?"
Chen Lin gave him a strange look.
I wonder what the reaction will be when the players who join the Wanjian Sect find out that the Forging Elder is the big brother-in-law of the entire network.
"I heard from the character planner that it seems to be an NPC similar to the blacksmith and refiner secondary profession instructor." Lao Li said after thinking for a while.
"Then you will be busy." Chen Lin smiled but said nothing.
He had a feeling that the Wanjian Sect would be the most lively sect.
After all, the Wanjian Sect's unique martial art, sword-wielding, is also very attractive.
then.
He took another look at the designs of other employee characters.
The most amazing one is Lao Song’s role as the city lord. He is dressed in a majestic and domineering robe, with the city lord’s jade crown and a sword at his waist. He looks very oppressive sitting on the Panlong chair.
Next is Old Li’s sister, Li Lingyue, who plays the role of the Holy Maiden of the Tianshan Sect. She is dressed in a white plain dress and a green crown and bridal robe, looking solemn and dignified.
With a little red mark between the eyebrows, she has a sacred temperament like a fairy descending to earth.
First glance.
I almost didn't recognize it was me.
"Is this Boss Song and Sister Lingyu?"
"Oh My God!"
“This is so cool!”
"Lingyu is dressed so beautifully!"
When Lao Li and others saw these two characters, they exclaimed in surprise, somewhat incredulously.
If Old Song were here now, he probably wouldn't believe that this was him.
But if you look closely, they are very similar, which is really magical.
Perhaps this is the charm of traditional Chinese costumes, and it is also the cultural style unique to their China.
"Well done. Let's post these three character designs online to promote them. It's a good start to warm up the atmosphere."
Chen Lin nodded with satisfaction and said to Lao Li next to him.
"Uh...are you really going to send it out?"
Old Li opened his mouth and took a look at his own character image.
Although he himself thinks it is quite handsome, it would be a different matter if he were to post it online. Wouldn't it be known to everyone?
"Why, you picked this popular role yourself, and you're afraid of people knowing about it?"
"I'm not mentally prepared yet."
Old Li scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
Chen Lin ignored him and made the decision directly: "It's settled. Such a cool design, it would be a waste if we don't use it."
"That's right, I haven't had the chance to go up yet."
"Haha, Old Li, just accept your fate."
"I wonder what those people will think when they see my brother-in-law and Lingyu in the same frame."
"I have an idea. Invite my sister-in-law to play the role of Lao Li's tigress partner and pull his ears."
"Pfft! You're the only one with so many ideas."
After staying in the studio for a long time, these employees are just as good at doing things and have deeply grasped the essence of Chen Lin.
Old Li listened at the side and his face turned green.
But before he could start scolding, the team leader of the plot planning department came running over.
"Mr. Chen, I have a question to discuss with you."
"What's the problem?"
Chen Lin looked at him.
Others' eyes also fell on him.
"It's just... there are a few plots in the copy you sent us before that need to be adjusted."
"Adjust the plot? I'll go over and take a look, you guys continue working on the characters."
After saying something to Lao Li and others, Chen Lin walked towards the planning team.
As this was his first self-developed game, he had to pay more attention to it, so he quickly disappeared in the long corridor.
As for the rest of the people, they started playing other characters and recorded motion capture and expression capture at the same time, trying to make the characters more vivid and realistic.
…
At the same time.
On all major online platforms.
The character design drawings of Lao Li and the other two were also "accidentally" leaked by an internal employee of Honghuang and quickly spread on the Internet.
The players, who were originally arguing over the carnivals of major manufacturers, were instantly attracted by those pictures.
"What's this?"
"The original design manuscript that was just leaked by Honghuang ?"
The players looked at the picture with confusion. The three characters in ancient costumes looked very familiar and they were extremely curious.
But I watched it for a long time.
No one realized what these three pictures represented, but instead they attracted more and more people to watch.
Until a few minutes later...
"Fuck! Isn't this my brother-in-law!?"
A player suddenly recognized one of the pictures and exclaimed in disbelief.
ah?
The other players were stunned.
He looked at the picture again with a look of regret.
Gradually.
They really saw the shadow of their eldest brother-in-law in the weapon-refining elder, and the more they looked, the more similar they looked. The more they looked, the more they couldn't hold back, and in the end they all laughed out loud.
“Hahahahaha…”
"Uncle! He is really my uncle!"
“It’s actually the brother-in-law in ancient costume!”
"What is going on here, Hong Huang?"
"Are you planning to film a costume idol drama?"
"The weapon refining elder of the Wanjian Sect, not to mention they are quite a match."
"That's fucking amazing."
The players were laughing like crazy.
The number of comments under the picture also increased rapidly.
Immediately following.
They recognized the other Lao Song and Li Lingyue one after another and laughed even louder.
Other people hire role actors, and they are all big-name stars.
But you are all internal employees, how can you be so stingy?
"It's so funny. I want to see what Hong Huang is going to do and what kind of idol drama he's going to shoot."
Their first reaction when seeing these three photos was that Honghuang was going to start shooting new CG. They immediately clicked on the large pictures with strong curiosity, wanting to dig out more details.
However.
When the picture is opened.
When they saw the words "Game character makeup finalized" above, everyone was stunned.
"???"
"Wait, you told me this is a game character?"
"These three are real-life images, right?"
"Aren't you filming a TV series?"
"Something's wrong! Something's very wrong!"
"Honghuang is developing a new game!?"
When the players heard the word "new game", they immediately became excited and studied the three pictures more carefully.
They soon discovered.
It is indeed based on the real person's image, with clothes and decorations added.
It’s just like those web game promotions that invite celebrities to endorse them, with a large background picture and the celebrity’s makeup and look.
But it's more subtle and a lot more natural.
It seems to blend into the background.
"It should be a role like an image spokesperson?" someone couldn't help but guess.
"I'm more curious about the meaning of Honghuang releasing these pictures. Are they really making a new game?"
"Looking at the style, it's a bit like the ancient style of immortal heroes."
"Xianxia game! I like this type the most!"
"It's hard to say. They only release a little bit each time. Who can tell?"
With only three pictures, it is impossible to guess much useful information. The players were so anxious that they scratched their heads and wanted to rush to the Honghuang headquarters to get clarification.
Obviously.
These should all be related to the upcoming Honghuang Carnival, which Honghuang specially released to satisfy the players' cravings.
But the problem is.
Instead of satisfying my craving, my appetite was whetted.
This feeling is really uncomfortable.
"Fuck! If Carnival doesn't give a reasonable explanation, I'll unfollow you!"
Everyone cursed and saved the character picture of the Holy Maiden of Tianshan.
After thinking about it, I saved the character picture of my brother-in-law as well.
To avoid Honghuang suddenly regretting and withdrawing the message, saying that it was just a temporary job and there was no such game at all.
that's all.
Because of the news released one after another.
Everyone's expectations for the Honghuang Carnival continue to rise.
In particular, news about new games that may be revealed at the annual meeting has almost become the focus of discussion among players.
This situation.
It lasted for more than half a month.
It was finally suppressed by the activity news of other major manufacturers.
The beginning of the month has just arrived.
Major manufacturers have held carnivals or annual meetings, which also brought a lot of important news.
The most shocking one.
It’s still Juying and Suoni.
They have successfully developed a second-generation virtual reality with a 42% degree of realism, and announced that it will be released at the end of the year, and several escort masterpieces and exclusive products will be put on the shelves at the same time.
Next are Penguin, Nintendo, and EA.
The degree of realism has reached about 40%, and the gap has further narrowed.
In addition, Penguin's flagship CF, Nintendo's Mario Kart, and EA's Star Wars will all be released simultaneously on the virtual platform.
As soon as the news came out.
There was a sensation on all sides.
The players were having a great time.
As for how many of these games will be delayed, it is unknown.
What manufacturers are most concerned about is another piece of news.
That is, these platforms have already started to develop virtual e-sports projects. Although they don’t know the progress, they have felt the upcoming changes in the industry.
This year.
It is destined to be a turbulent year.
It was also a year of vigorous development of the virtual side.
After the major companies finished their annual meetings, everyone’s attention was focused on the final event, Honghuang, to see what different Honghuang could bring to everyone this year.
"Are we the only ones left?"
"Then let's get started."
Inside the meeting room.
Chen Lin looked at the reported news and a smile appeared on his face.
after.
The overwhelming publicity and promotion swept the entire Internet.
Players from all over the world knew the news that Honghuang was going to hold a carnival and began to spread the news spontaneously by word of mouth.
Wait until the day of the annual meeting.
Countless people finished their meals early and lay down on their beds, logging into the Honghuang platform and waiting for the venue entrance to open.
…
"Here I come."
"The Honghuang Carnival is finally here!"
In the live broadcast room.
Ouyang Xiao logged into the platform through live broadcast and kept refreshing the channel entrance on the homepage, appearing extremely excited.
Barrages of comments also flew across the top, sparking heated discussions.
“I don’t know what game content will be updated this time.”
"Other platforms have already released their big moves, so it would be unreasonable not to come up with something."
“It’s true that watching online still has more atmosphere, and you can also see the people in the virtual venue .”
"It's so sad. My request for leave today was not approved. I can only watch the live broadcast secretly."
"Uncomfortable +1, I really envy those animals who have a day off."
"You guys have it figured out. I just passed by my boss' office and found him wearing a prehistoric helmet..."
Nowadays, the popularity of prehistoric helmets has reached a very high level.
In addition to young players and movie fans, many older people are also beginning to slowly accept this new thing.
Used to chat with family members face to face in the game, watch movies, play casual games, attend concerts, etc.
Extracurricular activities have become much richer.
Not to mention those with disabilities.
I almost treat this device as a sacred object and carry it with me all the time.
After all, this can allow them to become like normal people, walking and running freely and seeing things clearly.
So I am also very concerned about the Honghuang Annual Meeting.
"It's open! The passage is open!"
Suddenly, Yaya's scream came from the voice channel.
Ouyang Xiao, who was chatting casually, was delighted and quickly looked at the page. Sure enough, the gray venue passage lit up and he quickly clicked on it.
Swish!
A white light flashed.
When they formed a team, they were randomly assigned to seats in the row.
There were huge crowds of people all around, deafening cheers and rolling heat waves, as if entering a large battlefield.
It feels like entering the World Cup again.
"Wow! There are more people this time than last time!"
Ouyang Xiao looked around in shock. If she hadn't lowered her five senses, her eardrums would have been ruptured by the sound.
All the audience sitting in their seats were very excited and looked around curiously, looking for the figures of Honghuang employees.
But respond to them.
It was the sound of a turbine engine.
Two strange-looking motorcycles rushed out of the entrance and sped along the edge of the center arena.
That familiar scene.
This instantly shocked a group of Yu-Gi-Oh fans.
