Chapter 72 This is the game we will play next
"Actually, I don't know what the specific game is. Honghuang just came to our place to select people, and then told us when the show was going to start."
In front of the camera, Ouyang Xiao said with some anticipation.
Although she was not chosen as the leading actress this time, she still got a major role and was very happy about it.
And judging by how much importance Honghuang attaches to this, it is obvious that this is not just an ordinary game. Being able to participate in such a large project will also bring many benefits to her.
"They chose the roles without any fuss. It looks like there will be big moves this time."
“Isn’t it going to be on the same level as the Monster Hunter CG movie?”
"It's very likely. I've noticed that the frequency of game updates in Honghuang has slowed down recently."
“I don’t know what kind of game it will be.”
With strong curiosity, the audience stared at the live broadcast screen, afraid of missing anything.
And at this time.
The conference site.
Chen Lin had already walked slowly to the stage under the gaze of many eyes, holding a familiar pair of glasses in his hand.
"That looks like... VR glasses?"
There was a commotion among the crowd below the stage, and everyone looked at the glasses in surprise.
You should know that at such large-scale exchanges, manufacturers basically bring out the most important game projects, and few people will promote VR games as their main products.
Even the audience in the live broadcast room looked puzzled, not knowing what Honghuang was up to this time.
“As you can see, the product that our Honghuang Studio is about to launch is a VR game.”
On the stage, Chen Lin opened his mouth slowly, and his calm voice spread throughout the venue through the loudspeaker.
Hearing this, Zeng Fuming, who was standing backstage, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"I thought they were going to come up with something, but it turned out to be just a VR game. What good games can VR make?"
The mainstream games nowadays are still consoles and PCs.
When all manufacturers are developing these two types of games, bringing out VR does have the advantage of being a surprise attack, but it cannot change its disadvantage of limited usage.
The assistant next to him was surprised and stared at Chen Lin on the stage: "It turned out that the boss of Honghuang came on stage to introduce it himself. Are they really planning to make VR games?"
"What did you say? He is the boss of Honghuang?"
Zeng Fuming froze for a moment, his expression frozen on his face.
"That's him, for sure." The assistant nodded. "Boss, didn't you ask me to look into Hong Huang's information first? I've seen his picture in the studio's information."
"Then why didn't you send me the information earlier!" Zeng Fuming's face looked a little ugly.
"But... Director, didn't you say that we should deal with this matter after the conference is over?"
"you……"
Zeng Fuming wanted to curse loudly, but after taking a look at the Changyou representative across from him, he suppressed his anger and said, "Forget it, let's talk about this after we get back."
He waved his hands and continued watching the speech on the stage with his expression changing constantly.
The players and other representatives in the audience were also whispering at this time.
They were not very interested in the VR games that Chen Lin mentioned and looked uninterested.
However.
Next second.
A loud whistle suddenly broke the deadlock.
On the extra-long screen in the center of the stage, a giant cruise ship like a pearl on the sea was slowly approaching from a distance, and a soft and moving singing began to sound in my ears.
Countless figures stood on the luxurious cruise ship, waving goodbye to their loved ones at the port.
The picture, which was full of age, immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"Is this... the historical background of the last century?"
"What a spectacular cruise ship! Was this place filmed for real?"
"That's funny. There is no cruise ship of this standard nowadays. It must be a special effects synthesis."
“Even the special effects are a little too realistic, they actually render the entire exterior!”
"How much does it cost to render such a large model ?"
Basically, those who were able to come to the scene had some knowledge. They noticed at a glance that the cruise ship was unusual and exclaimed in amazement.
Ouyang Xiao and the female players, on the other hand, were gazing at the flawless white hull with longing.
“What a beautiful ship.”
"How romantic it would be to take a cruise around the world on a ship like this."
“Is there really such a beautiful cruise ship in the world?”
Yes.
The only word they could think of at this moment was "romance".
Especially when coupled with that moving singing, their eyes became blurred, and they were already imagining in their minds a romantic cruise journey with their loved ones.
Wait until the video playback ends.
Chen Lin's voice sounded again.
"I believe everyone has seen that this is the VR game we are developing at Honghuang, a story-based experience game that contains elements of love, puzzles, and disasters."
“And this cruise ship is the main content of the game’s plot. It has a total of 17 floors, and we will present every corner as realistically as possible for players to explore and dig into the main and side plots.”
"Of course, you can also simply treat it as a sightseeing game, where you can see the full range of sea views from a first-person perspective on a cruise ship and experience a real sea trip."
love!
Sea travel!
After listening to the introduction of the game, everyone was amazed. Can this really be achieved with VR?
Even if it is possible, the production cost would probably be astronomical.
Is this really something a game studio can afford?
to be honest.
Many people have serious doubts about this.
Subconsciously, I categorize Honghuang Studio as one of those people who only make big promises.
Since there is no need to release it right away, just brag about it. Many manufacturers have done the same before.
But some people were curious and asked loudly: "Can I ask when this game will be launched?"
It can be said that this player's question directly hit the most critical point.
If it were any other manufacturer, they would definitely choose to give an ambiguous answer or simply keep silent.
They were also prepared for Honghuang to be postponed indefinitely.
After all, what Chen Lin said just now was too outrageous, and it was hard for people to believe his truthfulness.
However.
To everyone's surprise.
Chen Lin on the stage thought for a moment and then replied with a smile: "On February 14th, we will release this game before Valentine's Day next year."
“Wow——”
There was an uproar in the venue.
This is the first time that someone dares to reveal the specific release date so directly at an exchange conference. Aren’t they afraid that the delay will affect their reputation?
wrong.
This is no longer a question of whether the payment will be delayed or not.
But it is something that is simply impossible to accomplish!
Because it’s only four months away from February!
"It took four months to make the game he just mentioned. That's an exaggeration."
“Even if we prepare two months in advance, we still can’t make it!”
"Blow, blow hard, and if the game comes out, I lose."
"I hope he can do it, but it's really too difficult. It will probably take a long time just to render it."
"The plot is also a big part. The plot of this kind of game takes the most time."
"Don't try to fool people by producing a low-quality semi-finished product."
Not only the players and representatives at the scene, but even the audience who were very familiar with Honghuang, were skeptical about Chen Lin's words and had heated discussions in the live broadcast room.
Ouyang Xiao's eyes sparkled and he was full of anticipation.
Because he is the boss of Honghuang Studio and the person who has absolute say in .
Since he dared to answer like this in public, he must be confident that it can be completed within four months.
That is to say.
She'll be able to see that game soon!
"Okay, thank you very much for the introduction of the new game brought to us by Honghuang Studio. Now we would like to invite the next representative to come on stage."
Just when everyone was talking about it.
After fifteen minutes, the host's voice sounded again, finally shifting their attention to the next manufacturer.
Chen Lin brought Lao Li and the other two back to the stage and began to accept inquiries from the players and answer their questions about the game.
This is also a necessary part of promoting the game.
