Chapter 109 Zhang Lexing's New Game
Unexpectedly, when he came back, he would face a dispute over the style of role-playing games (RPG) within the company, and Zhang Lexing couldn't help feeling a headache.

The so-called RPG style includes: European and American traditional RPG (adopts the rules of Dungeon and Dragon, generally has a real-time command system, has a main plot, and richer branch plots, with a higher degree of freedom), European and American action RPG (no longer focuses on the plot, but It not only absorbs the hearty sense of attack of action games, but also retains the plot of traditional RPG games and a large number of strange equipment), Japanese traditional RPG (emphasizes the advancement of the plot, more like a movie that can interact The movie, the style of painting is mainly in the style of comics, mostly using turn-based or semi-real-time combat), Japanese-style action RPG (emphasizing the experience of substituting script-type works in the original world view, rather than the substituting experience of personal original characters, the degree of freedom Not high, but has a relatively complete plot experience), Japanese-style strategy RPG (with a main storyline, and the fighting method adopts the mode of war chess games), Chinese-style Xianxia RPG (designed based on Chinese fantasy martial arts culture or traditional mythological themes) Fixed world view, the painting style adopts the traditional Chinese ink painting style, the game has a strong Chinese cultural color), Chinese style imitation Japanese RPG (quotes the elements of Japanese RPG, uses the original overhead world view and Japanese manga style).

Nowadays, there are European and American traditional RPGs, Japanese traditional RPGs, Japanese action RPGs, Japanese strategy RPGs, and Chinese martial arts RPGs that have just been born. Zhang Lexing’s own company has also done a lot of the first four styles of games (mostly on game consoles) ).After the establishment of the creative workshop, there are no more than two games that have been made, and the "Great Voyage Era", "Three Kingdoms 2" and "Three Kingdoms Heroes" that were developed during the previous training period are only five. , Speaking of it, "The Legend of the Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" can be next to the RPG.In the domestic game industry, RPG games are still the most popular and influential. It is impossible for a game production company that wants to make Creative Workshop the most well-known computer platform without a RPG game.

In fact, Zhang Lexing thought about this before returning to China last year. At that time, he planned to find Mr. Jin Yong to sign the right to adapt the novel. Unfortunately, he was preempted by Wang Junbo of Zhiguan. What's more exaggerated is that he didn't even let go of Gu Long's novel. Zhang Lexing simply There is no interest in making Chinese martial arts RPG.But martial arts are not good, we can use Xianxia as a substitute, it happens that Zhang Lexing is very familiar with a certain Xianxia, ​​and even recorded it in his creative manual.

It happened that the group of planners were still arguing about what to do, so Zhang Lexing simply expressed his "creativity" and had no choice but to feel sorry for Yao Xian for the sake of the development of the domestic game industry.

"Everyone has good ideas, but our current goal is to make a name for ourselves in the Chinese game industry, so those American-style RPGs and Japanese-style RPGs are not suitable for the moment, but you can make relevant ideas into application reports, and follow the normal process to declare the next project..."

Before Zhang Lexing finished speaking, the people in the conference room became polarized. The faces of those who favored American RPGs and Japanese RPGs paled a lot, while the faces of those who wanted to make martial arts RPGs suddenly brightened.

Zhang Lexing went on to say: "Chinese martial arts RPGs need a good script. Now the most famous novels by Jin Yong and Gu Long have been signed by other companies. If we want to do it, the script will be more difficult."

This time, even the faces of those who wanted to make a martial arts RPG darkened. Everyone was a little bit at a loss, and of course that heartless Mike Ronald was not included. fat man.

Seeing that everyone's faces were not very good, Zhang Lexing said with a smile: "Everyone, don't be so depressed. I have an idea for the production of this Chinese RPG game. It is said that during the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, in a small fishing village near Yuhang County There is a small inn where our protagonist Li Xiaoyao lives with his aunt..."

Zhang Lexing roughly narrated the plot of "Sword of Immortal Sword" in his memory. Of course, he will explain the key parts in detail (Liu Jinyuan and Caiyi, Suoyao Tower, etc.). The game system is depicted.

At the beginning, everyone was a little disapproving, thinking that at most it was just a simple story, but unexpectedly, what was solid was a fairly complete game setting (of course, the value setting was not included, Zhang Lexing couldn't remember so much), and the ups and downs The plot even made the eyes of the girls in the planning turn red.Of course, this does not include Mike Ronald, even if Zhang Lexing speaks to him in English, the result is the same. This is the generation gap between Eastern and Western cultures, which cannot be resolved by translation.

Said in one breath that Suoyao Ta Yueru died to save Xiaoyao and Linger, Zhang Lexing suddenly found that the sky was dark, it turned out that the time to get off work had passed before he knew it, and there were more people listening to the story in the conference room than before.

Zhang Lexing clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, it's time to get off work, why don't we break it down next time tomorrow."

However, most of the people in the conference room showed expressions of reluctance. Judging by the posture, it seemed that Xiang Lianye had finished listening to the story. It was no wonder that he suddenly stopped talking in the middle of the story, just like when he was reading an online novel. , that felt uncomfortable.Zhang Lexing could understand everyone's thoughts, but he hadn't rested after he got back from the plane. If he really finished the lecture overnight, he might not be able to use it tomorrow.

Fortunately, someone came to rescue at this time. Chu Jing knocked on the table and said loudly: "Everyone, the boss just came back from the plane today, and he is really tired. If there is anything else, we will continue to talk about it tomorrow. Are you still afraid of the boss?" not coming."

At this time, everyone remembered that they were also hungry. Just as Chu Jing finished speaking, the conference room that was crowded just now was empty, and the fastest runner was Mike Ronald.After everyone dispersed, only Zhang Lexing, Chu Jing and Ma Guanghai were left in the meeting room.

"Chu Jing, thanks to your rescue today, otherwise I don't know if I can get away."

"It's okay, it's easy to do. But Lexing, is Yueru really dead?"

Zhang Lexing only felt that his head started to hurt again...

Pulling Ma Guanghai, Zhang Lexing ran out as if fleeing for his life, and Chu Jing's voice kept coming from behind, "Lexing, don't run, is Yueru dead?"

Fleeing to the parking lot in a panic, the two got into the Mercedes-Benz 400E parked there. Under Zhang Lexing's urging, the Mercedes-Benz drove away quickly.

After dinner, he went back to his residence, washed up briefly, and then Zhang Lexing fell asleep on the bed. He didn't know if he had told too many stories during the day, and after falling asleep, he actually had a dream.When he woke up from the dream, Zhang Lexing couldn't remember exactly what he dreamed of, but he vaguely remembered that after using a Wanjian Jue in the dream, something collapsed, and a woman with a vague face pushed him. Put it, and then wake up by yourself.

Turning his head to look at the alarm clock on the bedside, it was only 25:[-] in the morning, Zhang Lexing wanted to lie down and continue to sleep, but he didn't feel sleepy at all, so he simply got up and drank some water.When he came to the living room, he poured some boiled water into the cup last night. While drinking, the phone rang suddenly, scaring Zhang Lexing almost dropped the cup in his hand.

After putting away the water glass, Zhang Lexing reached out to pick up the microphone and put it to his ear, but there was no voice, only some strange sobbing sounds, and he couldn't help but panic. At this moment, there was a sudden chill coming from behind, Zhang Lexing let go of his hands, The microphone fell to the ground with a bang, but his eyes couldn't help looking at the TV in the living room. At this moment, there was a burst of white light on the TV screen, and Zhang Lexing felt his heart tighten...

Fortunately, no guy in white clothes crawled out from the TV. The white light that appeared was just from the streetlight outside the house and just happened to shine on the screen. Zhang Lexing turned around and looked back, and found the chill behind him just now It was because the door to the balcony was not closed properly and it happened to be windy.Zhang Lexing hurriedly picked up the microphone on the ground and stuck it to his ear. This time someone finally spoke.

"Hi, hello, is this Lexing?" Mai Jiajun's voice came from the receiver.

Zhang Lexing couldn't help making gestures with his hands, and said angrily: "It's me, what did you do just now, I didn't speak when I called, trying to scare people to death."

"Hey, I'm sorry, Lexing. I just made a call and accidentally dropped the receiver. When I pick it up, there's no sound from your side. Are you okay?"

"It's okay? Dude, do you know what time it is here? It's three o'clock in the morning, did you call so early?"

"Oh, I just heard the news. I was a little excited. I forgot the time difference. I'm sorry." Mai Jiajun apologized repeatedly on the phone.

"Forget it, it's all over. Tell me, buddy, what's the news."

"IBM found their new chairman and CEO today, Gerstner. Haha, you can't figure out what that guy did."

"What did that man do?" Zhang Lexing asked curiously.

"I used to sell tobacco, but now I come to IBM. I don't know if Gerstner can figure out what a computer is. The funniest thing was the press conference this morning. The reporter asked Gerstner a lot of questions. , but he kept saying 'I don't know' over and over again, haha, I don't even know what he came to IBM for." From time to time, Mai Jiajun's laughter came from the phone, and a woman's voice seemed to be vaguely heard beside him.

Zhang Lexing on the other end of the phone didn't smile, but let go of what he had been worrying about, because since Gerstner can take office, IBM's future will not be so unpredictable, at least the money he plans to invest will not be lost drift.

"Le Xing, do we want to continue the bet we made? I'm afraid that IBM's current situation is hopeless." Mai Jiajun's kindly persuasive voice came from the phone.

"It doesn't matter, the bet is still valid. I will send someone to pay attention to IBM's stock starting tomorrow. You will know after two years."

"Well, anyway, if your sister asked me to bring it, I brought it. If this is the case, then be careful yourself. Bye..." The phone was hung up quickly.

Zhang Lexing also put the phone away, and when he looked up, he suddenly found a person sitting on the sofa next to him, and shrank back in fright.

"Boss, it's me, Ma Guanghai." Ma Guanghai's voice came from the darkness.

Zhang Lexing patted his chest, calmed down and said, "Brother Guanghai, why are you up?"

"I heard movement in the living room, so I came to take a look. I didn't expect you to be answering the phone, so I just sat on the sofa."

"Brother Guanghai, did the phone ringing just now bother you?"

"This is also an old problem. I fell down when I was at the border before. If there is any movement, I will wake up easily. It's okay, I'm used to it."

"Oh," Zhang Lexing sighed, got up and said, "Brother Guanghai, I'm going to bed, you should go to bed earlier."

"Okay, you go to bed first, and I'll sit down later."

Zhang Lexing turned around and went back to the bedroom, lifted the quilt and lay down in it. After thinking wildly for a while, he soon fell back into a deep sleep.
