Restart the Gaming Era
Chapter 207: Wisdom Technology (2 in 1
The player meeting was very successful.
"Fantasy Lands" can also be regarded as a great success, and has become a popular indie game recently.
After the player meeting, the staff cleaned up the venue. Wu Minghao pulled Zhong Ming and uttered a few words.
"Thank you for" Fantasy Realm ". I will watch" Ink Clouds "next time. It will definitely be more popular than" Fantasy Realm ". When the game is finished, remember to tell me, I am definitely the first Go play! "Wu Minghao said cheerfully.
Zhong Ming smiled: "Okay, I'm sure to inform you first. What's your studio planning next? Make another one?"
Wu Minghao shook his head: "Don't worry, because of the shortage of funds before" Fantasy Lands ", there are still a lot of pits left unfilled. In the next two or three months, we will fill up the pits and then develop a dl. Since there are With a successful project, we must dig into it. "
Obviously, Wu Minghao and Zhong Ming are not the same way.
Zhong Ming finished a game and then planned another one, which basically does not stop, but Wu Minghao, like most other producers, once a game is finished, he will die first and wait for a large income. When sliding down, go to make the next one.
In fact, Wu Minghao's approach is normal. Zhong Ming's is a special case.
A game has a lifespan. Like this successful indie game, it has a long lifespan. It is foreseeable that as long as Wu Minghao continuously optimizes, updates, and releases, "Fantasy Land" can maintain its current income for at least the next six months or even one year, and there is no need to make new games hard.
Wu Minghao is also telling the truth. Although games such as "Fantasy Realm" are made, there are still many places that can be optimized and improved. Unlike Zhong Ming, the completion of the first version is so high.
Therefore, Imagine Time Studio will be relatively relaxed and relaxed in the next few months, and will not maintain the high-intensity R & D rhythm as before.
...
The next morning.
Zhong Ming got up in the morning and made something to eat.
Before it's time for work, everyone hasn't come yet.
As a result, the bracelet rang just after eating.
At first glance, it was an unfamiliar number, but the note was the office number of Zhihuan Technology.
"Zhihuan Technology?"
Zhong Ming recalled it, and seemed to be a bit impressed.
Is a technology company that specializes in artificial intelligence algorithms and intelligent hardware.
The so-called intelligent hardware mainly refers to the bracelet. The share of Zhihuan Technology in the bracelet market is not large. It may have less than 10 shares worldwide, but it is the world's top level in terms of artificial intelligence algorithms. .
This company has strong R & D strength in technology, but it is not very famous.
This is also normal, because no matter how strong the R & D capabilities of such companies are, they can only be suppliers, and there is rarely a chance to show their faces directly in front of consumers. Just like Zhong Ming ’s domestically produced artificial intelligence “Zeyi”, many people know it, but rarely go to ask which company developed it. When it ’s developed by AIB, the first reaction is, what ’s this?
But again, aib is Tencent's laboratory specializing in artificial intelligence, and most people will suddenly realize when they hear "Tencent".
This Zhihuan technology, although not particularly famous among ordinary people, is well-known in the professional field.
Because the virtual idols produced by Xinghua Mutual Entertainment and several virtual idol entertainment companies, the AI support behind them is basically provided by Zhihuan Technology.
In recent years, Zhihuan Technology probably wants to change the status quo that can only be a supplier, so it has also tried to expand into the field of smart hardware, mainly bracelets, but the progress is not particularly optimistic.
When it comes to artificial intelligence technology, it's a bit difficult to say.
Zhong Ming is very interested in artificial intelligence technology in this world, so I have checked a lot of information before.
Before the intelligence crisis, artificial intelligence technology was extremely popular in the world, and its development speed was extremely fast.
However, after the intelligence crisis, a large number of artificial intelligence technologies were blocked, and many older people were almost discolored, and even required legislation to limit the development of all artificial intelligence technologies without any difference.
However, he said no, his body was still honest. With post-war reconstruction and rapid economic recovery, people find it difficult to get rid of artificial intelligence completely.
Because artificial intelligence does provide convenience in many places.
For example, sweeping robots, smart homes, speeding autopilot programs, advanced ai in the game ...
The intelligence crisis is indeed one of the serious consequences that artificial intelligence technology may induce, but it can not be returned to the primitive society because of waste.
Therefore, artificial intelligence technology is still recovering in the collision, and the gradual fiery of virtual idols is an example.
And Zhihuan Technology, a company that develops artificial intelligence, is gradually expanding the boundaries of its business.
These thoughts flashed, and Zhong Ming answered the call.
"Hello, is Mr. Zhong Ming? We are Zhihuan Technology, and we want to develop an intelligent module in the near future, and hope to cooperate with you ..."
The other party explained the purpose briefly. In short, Zhihuan Technology recently wanted to launch an intelligent module, hoping to reach copyright cooperation with Zhong Ming.
This copyright is, of course, the copyright of Chanel.
It may be that Zhong Ming does not understand, and the person in charge of the other side also briefly introduced what the "smart module" is.
"This smart module is a new product launched by our company. In fact, it is a flat 'black box' with a length of 20, a height of 5, and it can be hung on the wall or on the ceiling."
"It is a new device that integrates holographic projection and intelligent AI, or it can be said to be a" smart steward ". After granting permissions, it can control all smart homes in the home, including sweeping robots, TVs, game consoles, etc Etc. At the same time, it also uses a holographic projection to project a virtual image into the user's home, which can be used for chatting, playing, etc. "
"Our company appreciates Chanel's image very much. I heard that you still retain all the copyright of Chanel, so I want to work with you ..."
Zhong Ming thought for a while: "Yes. However, we need to talk about the details in detail."
The other party hurriedly said, "Yes, of course, to talk in detail. In this way, I heard that your studio is also in Ming'an City, if convenient, meet somewhere in the afternoon."
Zhong Ming asked: "Your company is also in Ming'an?"
"Correct."
"Then don't have to make an appointment. I'll go to your company in the afternoon."
The other party was happy: "Of course that's fine. Then at noon, let's see each other."
Hanging up the phone, Zhong Ming checked the address of Zhihuan Technology, which is in Ming'an City, but it is not close to here, it is almost an hour's drive.
However, in any case, it is in the same city, much closer than in other cities.
Zhong Ming did not directly reject this time because the nature of this time is different from before.
In the past, including Xinghua Mutual Entertainment, it was necessary to buy the copyright of Chanel for joint development.
Said to be co-development, actually to develop for you.
For example, in the previous virtual idol contest, if Zhong Ming sold Chanel's copyright, then Zhihuan Technology will not call Zhong Ming today, but will call Xinghua Mutual Entertainment.
If Zhongming sold the copyright at the beginning, Xinghua Huyu could arrange Chanel to perform concerts and release albums, and then any advertisements and endorsements would be decided by Xinghua Huyu, and Zhongming would only get a share.
This time, Zhihuan Technology is equivalent to talking directly with Zhong Ming, and wants to pay for the use of Chanel's copyright. Although both are called "cooperation", they are completely different in nature.
In cooperation with Zhihuan Technology, the copyright is still in Zhong Ming, which is roughly equivalent to a star making an endorsement for a certain technology product.
Zhong Ming has not sold Chanel's copyright, not because she is not developing, but she wants to wait for a suitable opportunity.
There must be a balance between immediate interests and long-term interests. Paid in front of you, sold Chanel's copyright to others, and you can't use it anymore; but after thinking about it for too long, everyone slowly forgot this image, that's not enough.
Now, the Twilight Studio has stabilized, and more than two months have passed since Chanel won the first prize in the virtual idol contest. Now, I have started to develop the value of Chanel's virtual image. The timing is just right, no It's early, but not too late.
...
Not long after, Jiang Wanna and Zhou Sen both arrived and started working.
In less than a month, Ink Cloud Smoke will be developed, and the official gga competition will almost begin.
Time is not too tight, but it is not easy.
Zhou Sen knocked on the code, and when he was idle, he also chatted with Zhong Ming casually and relaxed.
"Recently," Fantasy Lands "has been ignited. Zhongming, you can really do it, just go and help make a soy sauce, you can make a blockbuster." Zhou Sen said with emotion.
Of course, other people in the project already knew that Zhong Ming was helping out in "Fantasy Lands", but they hadn't paid attention to it before. As a result, when "Fantasy Lands" went online, the data was so good, it was not surprising.
Zhong Ming smiled: "Of course, I have such a power to turn decay into magic."
"Well, look at your big face. Aren't you responsible for the plot, you haven't blended in other aspects." Zhou Sen said.
Zhong Ming grinned: "Then what do you think, the plot is the main bonus point. I tell you, do it well. If the sales of" Ink and Cloud "is not as good as" Fantasy Land ", I will be very shameless. . Then I can't look up in front of Lao Wu, but that's all your pot. "
Everyone: "..."
...
In the afternoon, Zhong Ming hit a taxi in the air and went to the headquarters of Zhihuan Technology.
The distance is really long. Zhihuan Technology is on the southwest side of Ming'an City, almost across the entire city of Ming'an. Zhong Ming slept in the car and arrived after waking up.
The office building of Zhihuan Technology is not very large, it is a lot shorter than the building of Guangyi Huyu, but it is also decent.
It was an old employee of the smart module project who came to pick up Zhongming. After a few words of shame, he led him directly to the Deputy General Office.
Talking to Zhong Ming this time is the vice president of Zhihuan Technology, which is directly responsible for the intelligent module project, called Yang Chengye.
"Hello President Yang."
"Miss Zhong, hello, please sit down."
Yang Chengye looks very young, even in his thirties, with a shaved beard on his face, very capable.
Yang Chengye didn't call Zhong Ming "xx total", but shouted teacher Zhong. Maybe in his opinion, those who play art, whether it is designing virtual idols, making music or drawing, are all technical activities, called "xx total" This title is a bit idiomatic.
Of course, Zhong Ming doesn't care about this, it's the same.
"Mr. Zhong took a trip in person and it was really hard. But that ’s okay. Let ’s just talk briefly and then I can take you to the project and show our conditions and sincerity."
Yang Chengye was very polite.
In fact, the reason why Zhong Ming ran a trip in person is precisely for this purpose.
Just to see if this project is reliable.
In terms of fame, the company itself should be reliable, but the project is not necessarily reliable.
Some big companies have screamed loudly and said they want to enter a new field, but actually did not invest much money and did not dig a few professional talents. Finally, the slogan shouted for a long time without any results, this kind of thing often happens .
Zhihuan Technology has done a good job in artificial intelligence research, but in terms of intelligent hardware, it can only be said that it has just started. This time, the intelligent module may really focus on opening up the breakthrough, or it may just talk about it. Do something like this, and Zhong Ming must be clear at this point.
Yang Chengye first briefly introduced the situation of the project.
"That's it. You know, we have always been good in the field of artificial intelligence research and development. The virtual idols of Xinghua Mutual Entertainment and Gona Entertainment are basically all we are providing ai support."
"However, in recent years, the company's senior management has also vigorously promoted the expansion of new business, and has also made certain achievements in intelligent hardware. For example, the bracelet launched by our company was launched in the middle of the year, and its sales in the second half of the year have exceeded 10 million Of course, it can't be compared with those traditional bracelet manufacturers, but it can be regarded as a firm foothold. "
"This time, the new product we plan to launch is the smart module, or 'smart steward', which is an integration of existing smart devices."
"Of course, you may have to say that there are similar products all the time, why do we still do it?"
"Mainly because of a new technological breakthrough that has now reached commercial requirements ..."
Yang Chengye briefly introduced the smart module ~ www.readwn.com ~ The so-called smart module is similar to some "xx elves" in Zhong Ming's previous life. It can connect all the smart appliances in the home, including the bracelet, so as to achieve all Voice control and remote control of appliances.
Some people may ask, hasn't such a simple technology been done before?
Of course.
Now on the market, there are indeed some intelligent modules, the price is not high, basically ranging from 00 to 1000.
Some intelligent modules are nothing more than decorations. They are placed on the coffee table in the living room. The owner shouts: "Turn on the TV, open the game channel", and this intelligent module will automatically complete the corresponding operations.
However, the intelligent module to be launched by Zhihuan Technology is different from these traditional intelligent modules.
In simple terms, this smart module has a higher technology content. Using the latest miniature projection technology, it can project a virtual idol into the living room and interact with the owner in real time.
