Number One Game Designer

What is the country with the strongest cultural export in the world?

There is no doubt that America.

After World War II, the United States relied on ten aircraft carrier formations, 374 military bases in more than 140 countries, 10,000 nuclear warheads, and the total annual military expenditures. It can be said that it suppressed the world in all aspects, and it is vivid. Interpreted the phrase "all within the range of a cannon is truth".

In terms of cultural output, there are many representatives of its cultural symbols, the main one of which is the American cowboy culture.

The United States was founded in the eighteenth century, and then in the eighteenth to nineteenth centuries, in order to develop the west of the United States, the United States began to develop the existence of cowboys. At that time, the United States imported cattle from abroad, and then relied on cowboys to drive them to the west. Internally, in this process, the wilderness gradually turned into a town, and disorder slowly returned to order, which can be regarded as a typical process of humans conquering nature.

It sounds like a cowboy. To put it bluntly, it is actually a pioneering movement. This kind of thing does not happen in every country in the world, at least in most countries. Otherwise, where does everyone live now? It’s impossible for humans to live in this way since ancient times, right?

But unlike other countries, the United States relied on its own military strength to make cowboys a culture and sell it all over the world.

What is the cowboy in the current film, comics and movies like? Noose, cowboy scarf, cowboy clothes, cowboy hat, spiked boots, and a revolver that pulls out the holster if they don’t agree, as if they were in charge of being handsome all day in the process of pioneering the West, and duel for beautiful women. It's the same as staying in the bar at night. And never mention that cowboys spend most of their time driving cows, washing horses, shoveling horse dung, and this process is artistic processing.

Fang Xi is certainly familiar with this culture, and now after Liu Hai's reminder, he suddenly realized that China also has such a group of heroes!

Passing through the pass refers to the Shanhaiguan pass, which is familiar to northerners. This pass defines the central plains inside the pass and the bitter cold outside the pass. In the past, although the land outside the pass was fertile, at that time, when the goose feathers and heavy snow fell outside the pass, thousands of mountains and birds would never fly. The thousands of people disappeared, but there was no way to survive. It was also at the beginning of the eighteenth century. On the one hand, it was due to natural disasters. At that time, the lower reaches of the Yellow River suffered years of disasters, and the people in the lower reaches of the Yellow River had to flee north in order to survive; The government is rotten, and the country is also in a situation of internal and external troubles, making the lives of the people in the Central Plains of the original pass deteriorating.

In this case, in order to make a better life, this great population migration, which has been highlighted in the history of China, started like this. This breakthrough established a good breeding ground for the industrialization of the Republic.

Fang Xi is not a cultural idiot. On the contrary, he knows more about this history and cares more about it than Liu Hai, so when Liu Haixu was talking about it, Fang Xi directly decided:

"Needless to say!"

When I said Liu Hai’s heart and soul, I suddenly forgot everything I thought about later. He is a fan of this novel. It is a pity that there is no suitable person to adapt this novel into a game to buy, and now, Hongyi undoubtedly It is the company closest to this qualification, but now that this opportunity is gone?

However, Fang Xi's gentle smile dispelled Liu Hai's worries:

"The game adaptation rights of this novel, we Hongyi have to decide!"

Liu Hai put his heart back in his stomach and stroked his chest lightly. He could still feel his heart fighting forcefully now, all of which were frightened just now.

"As for the cost..." Fang Xi paced back and forth in the office for two steps, turned around and said to Liu Hai earnestly: "You will discuss this matter, and the cost will not be set for the time being, but let the other party believe that our sincerity is Yes, in essence, we want to portray the people who pioneered the black soil when they broke through the East into the same heroes, just like American cowboys."

The heart beating in Liu Hai's chest became more intense. Before he came, he felt that it was already the best result to be recognized by Fang Xi. As a result, he did not expect that the result would be even better by three points. No cost ceiling meant that Hongyi was I really showed all my sincerity and got the right to adapt the novel at all costs. This is the result that I dare not even think about.

Lu Qiu was also taken aback by Fang Xi’s “no cost”, but then suddenly she saw clearly from the outside that Boss Fang really wanted to fight a cultural anti-invasion war, since it is already a war. As a prelude to this, it is meaningless to care about costs, because once your culture is successfully invaded, these so-called costs can be recovered hundreds of times.

War is essentially a process of gambling.

"Guaranteed to complete the task!" In his excitement, Liu Hai almost saluted him. Fortunately, he realized at the last moment, he put down his hands and adjusted his posture smoothly and touched the back of his head with a smile:

"But I think it shouldn’t be too difficult. Although Mr. Zhou Hexuan, the author of "Black Earth", has passed away, their family style is very good, and the Zhou family is also in business. To elaborate, the probability of this cooperation negotiation is very high."

"That's good." Fang Xi breathed a sigh of relief. If you are doing this type of game, of course, the safest thing is to open the way through IP, because it is a masterpiece, which means that it will be easier to explain the plot and the like, and the IP will also bring fixation. The group of people, in general, is a good thing that cannot be better.

Of course, you can write the script yourself, but if you write it yourself, this is a brand new subject, even if Hongyi has its own audience of players, Fang Xi dare not take any risks.

Now Fang Xi somewhat understands why there were so many IP-based TV series in the last time and space, because it is still in a groping stage. If it is a brand-new script, it is a bit like a stud in gambling. If you lose it, you will lose money. And at least there is no possibility of violent death in the IP adaptation: even if you change it and then burst again, there will still be original fans who will take a curious look: they say it is bad, let me see how bad it is?

Between the guarantee and stud, most people of course still choose the guarantee, and now Fang Xi is no exception, so I was relieved to hear that the IP here is easier to talk about.

"Zhou Hexuan has passed away this time?" Fang Xi asked casually.

"Mr. Zhou has a very long life. He died ten years ago. He has lived for more than a hundred years. He has experienced all kinds of wind and rain throughout his life, and he has achieved quite a lot in various cultural fields. He has a successful career, a harmonious family, and envy others."

Liu Hai also spoke with envy, Fang Xi also remembered that when he was in middle school, many of his classmates seemed to be envious of Mr. Zhou. It is said that he was mainly born a hundred years ago. At that time, there were several Mr. Zhou. A confidante is the envy of everyone.

How many confidantes are here?
