Game Design: Is that okay, CaiGou?

Chapter 256 Why don’t I, Jiangbao, not want to be a great musician? (Please subscribe)

The words fell.

A burst of brilliant fireworks rose around the open-air stage.

The speakers arranged below the stage also played exciting music.

It makes people feel the adrenaline rush.

A moment of silence.

The audience in the audience immediately became excited and immediately walked along the exhibition halls of various game manufacturers around the central five channels.

The players are very orderly, but they move in a hurry. They can't wait to take three steps and do two at the same time.

With a satisfied smile on his face, Fang Chang went straight to the special guest exhibition hall with his two roommates and the girl he had just met.

Because the game plus education special exhibition has been held for several years, Cai Gou and Taiping Dao no longer need the central top exhibition hall to display their games.

Therefore, the location of the special guest exhibition hall is very remote, at the end of the main road and at the end of the flow of people.

But many people still went straight to the special guest exhibition hall without even looking at the various exhibition halls along the way.

Halfway through, the girl saw Fang Chang's unstoppable smile and asked curiously: "Why are you so happy? Are you a nymphomaniac?"

"No way!" Fang Chang turned his head and explained:
"I'm happy because the old thief still remembers me, and I also had a conversation with the old thief. For this reason alone, today's game and education special exhibition is a worthwhile trip."

"By the way..." At this point, Fang Chang asked: "Miss, although we met by chance, we are still destined to be together. What is your name?"

The girl raised the corners of her mouth and said, "My name is Zhan Yazhi!"

"Zhan Yazhi? What a name!" Fang Chang said with a smile: "Add contact information?"

"sure!"

Zhan Yazhi nodded grandly, her ponytail swaying behind her, looking playful and cute.

After adding friends, the two quickly rushed to the exhibition hall of the special guests.

Currently, only Taiping Road has the qualifications to invite special guests to the game plus education special exhibition. Although the location is remote, the space is not small.

People streamed here, and there were waves of exclamations from the crowd in front.

"Mr. Wolong?"

"Damn it, Mr. Wolong is here in person?"

"It is indeed a special exhibition on games and education. The old thief and Mr. Wolong are both involved?"

When Fang Chang and Zhan Yazhi heard these words, they accurately captured a name——

Mr. Wolong.

After the two looked at each other, they were both a little shocked.

After all, there are only a few people with the nickname Taipingdao, and each one of them is a well-known figure in the gaming industry, and their life histories have long been stripped clean.

You guys may know Mr. Wolong better than Wu Xiu himself.

In the eyes of players, Wu Xiu can be regarded as a legendary figure on Taiping Road.

Special guest exhibition hall.

Wu Xiu responded loudly to everyone, with a smile on his face like that of Maitreya Buddha:

“Everyone, everyone, thank you for coming to the Taiping Road Exhibition Hall.”

"Everyone should line up in order, or get the number plate from the staff. Players who are behind in the order can go to other exhibition halls first and come back in about the same time."

Players quickly lined up, and the staff handed out number plates. Fortunately, Fang Chang and Zhan Yazhi were at the front of the line, so they didn't have to wait too long.

At this moment, the two roommates looked at me and me, and nodded in unison.

The two roommates said to each other: "You guys should try Rocksmith first. We saw a good game on the way and want to try it first."

Without waiting for Fang Chang to answer, the two of them ran away, leaving Fang Chang and Zhan Yazhi alone with each other. The two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.

As the team squirmed, harsh music sounded from time to time inside the exhibition hall, but also pleasant accompaniment sounded. After all, among the players, some people still know how to play the electric guitar.

Everyone heard the pleasant accompaniment and looked forward to Rock Smith more and more.

A quarter of an hour later, it was finally Fang Chang and Zhan Yazhi's turn to enter the team.

The two quickly stopped in front of an empty computer, but Fang Chang was still stunned by the electric guitar placed in front of the computer.

Who can believe that in a top event in the gaming industry, such as a gaming and education exhibition, you can actually see something that has nothing to do with gaming, such as an electric guitar?
The key is that in the game Rocksmith, the electric guitar is still a must-have and unique gaming peripheral. Since the old thief founded Yellow Turban Studio, the gaming industry has become more and more hardcore.

Fang Chang turned around and asked, "Yazhi, would you like to try it first?"

"No, you go first!" Zhan Yazhi pointed to her mobile phone and said, "I'll take a photo for you."

"Okay!" Fang Chang nodded, and then entered Rock Smith's page.

[Accompaniment Learning] [Accompaniment Mode] [Continuous Play] [Teaching Course] [Game Center] [Multiplayer Mode] [Sound Design] [Store] [UPLAY] [Main Menu]

A series of options emerged, and Fang Chang thought of the dusty guitars lying around in the dormitory. Perhaps every boys dormitory had dusty guitars or idle dumbbells.

Although he is a man of science and engineering, he is not uninterested in musical instruments, but he just can't get into it. Now there is a video game that can teach players how to learn electric guitar.

This feeling is really amazing...

Fang Chang clicked on [Teaching Course], and a series of options appeared.

"!!!"

What is professionalism?

Na! This is called professionalism!

Who can see such a systematic electric guitar teaching course in a music game?

Fang Chang clicked on the first lesson [Preparation] out of curiosity.

After the video played, a teacher over fifty years old sat in the classroom, holding an electric guitar in his hand and talking to the screen——

"Welcome to the introductory chapter of Rock Smith's basic electric guitar teaching. I am Lou Guang, a teacher from Sichuan Music College. I am very happy to be able to explain the relevant knowledge of electric guitar to everyone on the new platform of Rock Smith."

"Isn't it?" Zhan Yazhi on the side exclaimed when he saw this: "It's actually Teacher Lou Guang?"

Fang Changligongnan knew very little about the field of music. When he saw this, he asked shamelessly: "Yazhi, who is this teacher Lou Guang? Is he famous?"

"Very famous!" Zhan Yazhi explained with a serious face: "He is a professor of electric guitar at Sichuan Music College, and he is the first person in the country to teach electric guitar." "Holy crap!" Fang Chang said excitedly: "Then This game is so worth it. If you buy a game, you can also listen to the introductory instructional video of the first person in the country on electric guitar?”

"Who says it's not the case!" Zhan Yazhi also looked surprised:
"Fang Chang, didn't you say that you were also in the live broadcast room when Teacher Li Ying and General Tiangong Lian Mai were having a conversation at the Music Special Game Festival?"

"Right? What's wrong?"

Zhan Yazhi explained: "Do you remember that Teacher Li Ying once said that the game Rock Smith was jointly developed by Taipingdao and Sichuan Music Academy?"

"Hiss..." Wu Xiu suddenly realized: "That's it!"

This series of teaching videos by Teacher Lou Guang is worth a fortune for players who really want to learn electric guitar.

But a guitar is a guitar and an electric guitar is an electric guitar. There is a difference between the two.

Guitar is also translated as guitar or six-stringed harp. It is a plucked instrument, usually with six strings and similar in shape to a violin.

In pop music, rock music, blues, folk songs, and flamenco, the guitar is often regarded as the main instrument.

In the field of classical music, the guitar is often performed as a solo or duet. Of course, in chamber music and orchestral music, the guitar also plays a considerable role as a foil.

At the same time, classical guitar, violin and piano are listed as the three most famous musical instruments in the world.

The electric guitar is completely different. The electric guitar is a product of modern science and technology. It is obviously different from the traditional guitar in terms of appearance and sound.

The body of the guitar is made of new hardwood and is equipped with volume, pitch adjusters, vibrato structures and other devices. With the use of effectors, the electric guitar has strong expressive power and plays an important role in modern music. Mostly used for song accompaniment.

The development of electric guitar playing skills to this day has formed a relatively scientific and large system. Common ones are as follows -

Bending, legato, tremolo, non-directional slide, damping, skipping, pick overtones and tremolo playing, and string tapping.

There are also techniques developed from various styles of music, such as chicken playing in country-style guitar, double-note string bending, harmonic string bending in blues music, etc.

It can be said that the electric guitar is a very mature modern instrument, and the entry barrier is relatively higher than that of the guitar. However, with Teacher Lou Guang’s videos, Fang Chang believes that it should not be difficult to get started.

Fang Chang canceled the pause and the video continued to play.

"Invited by General Tiangong, I will record a series of videos with the theme of [Zero Basic Electric Guitar 7-Week Self-Study Plan]. This video hopes to help players who have just started practicing electric guitar standardize the basic movements and master the practice method. , the specific form is..."

After listening for a long time, seeing that there was not much time left for the two of them, they could only exit the teaching video reluctantly.

Fang Chang turned his head solemnly and said to Zhan Yazhi:
"The game Rock Smith, apart from anything else, I will definitely buy it based on this series of videos by Mr. Lou Guang."

"Hahahaha...that's great!" Zhan Yazhi smiled and said, "I'm also very interested in electric guitar. We can communicate more in the future."

Fang Chang clicks [Accompaniment Learning] on this page and selects the track——

[Until the End of the World: ACG·Slam Dunk Master]

[Rock Smith’s study suggestions——]

【Technical Guide】

【Points Challenge】

【Extra music score】

Fang Chang picked up the electric guitar with a serious look on his face, and with the click of the song, he officially entered the level page.

Only the strings of the electric guitar are displayed at the bottom of the screen, which can display the player's playing movements in real time.

There is a virtual speaker on each side of the screen, playing the theme song of Until the End of the World.

In the center of the screen, there was a foggy gray tone, and there seemed to be nothingness in front of it. On the nearby road, as the accompaniment played, light keys of different colors emerged from nowhere.

It is somewhat similar to the interface of the advanced version of Rhythm Master, but the operation difficulty is not at the same level as Rhythm Master.

The overall style of the game levels gives people the feeling that they are like apprentices learning music, walking hobblingly on the endless road of music, and from time to time, notes will float out in front of them, and they will be captured by the music-loving apprentices. .

The combination of emptiness and reality, accompanied by the simultaneous playing of the electric guitar by the player, gives people a wonderful feeling that the player is moving forward on the road of music.

When the prelude sounded on the virtual speakers on both sides, the players seemed to hear the call, and a group of people gathered around Fang Chang and Zhan Yazhi.

Fang Chang felt a little nervous when he saw this scene. In fact, he couldn't play the electric guitar at all, so he could only bite the bullet at this time.

I barely followed the area where the notes appeared on the screen and played a few times. A harsh sound resounded around me.

The onlookers laughed, and the laughter was kind, but there was also a lot of teasing about the other party.

Being embarrassed in front of the girl he likes, Fang Chang's face turned red. Just when Zhan Yazhi wanted to speak, Wu Xiu walked out of the crowd and said seriously:

"The players here are not necessarily those who can play the electric guitar. My name is Jiangbao. I just heard the song played by this gentleman. It was full of enthusiasm and creativity, and it ignited a fire in my heart. . I feel like, at this moment, I’m going to explode!”

He took the electric guitar from Fang Chang's hand and played it twice casually. It was still harsh and unpleasant. Then he smiled at everyone and said, "Everyone, we are all laymen, so who is laughing at who? Right? Having fun is the most important thing!"

Among the onlookers, a player put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly: "Why don't I want to be a great dancer! Mr. Wolong, the artistic content of your words is very high!"

Wu Xiu smiled and said, "How high is it?"

"It's as high as three or four stories high!"

Everyone laughed, Fang Chang's matter was revealed so easily, and no one mentioned it again.

Fang Chang looked embarrassed, turned around and said to Zhan Yazhi: "I am indeed a layman, and I am making you laugh. How about you give it a try and I can take pictures for you?"

When Fang Chang said these words, his face was a little lonely, which aroused Zhan Yazhi's protective desire. She directly tied up her hair, patted Fang Chang's shoulder and said:

"Let me help you find your place!"

Zhan Yazhi took over the electric guitar and adjusted it very skillfully. Then she still chose the song Until the End of the World and played it very skillfully.

Players around him immediately turned around as if they were struck by lightning.

Don't use your childhood knife to kill me, Hun Dan!

Players gathered around Fang Chang and Zhan Yazhi again. Zhan Yazhi waved his hand and shouted to the players around him:
"Let us introduce - Xiangbei High School Basketball Team, 5th, first! Team! Member!"

The players followed the music and shouted in unison——

"Point guard No. 7, Ryota Miyagi!"

"No. 14 shooting guard, Hisashi Mitsui!"

"No. 11 small forward, Rukawa Kaede!"

"No. 10 power forward, Sakuragi Hanamichi!"

"Center No. 4, Takenori Akagi!"

The high-pitched roars came one after another, attracting almost all the players in the exhibition hall. Even the players outside the exhibition hall couldn't help but shout in response when they heard the singing.

"Coach, I want to play basketball!"
