"Crystal stone?"

Fang Jie didn't understand, so he didn't know what the other party was talking about, and he didn't understand what the crystal stone had to do with the art materials.

Not to mention Fang Jie, the rest of the design institute present were also at a loss, and some leaders glared at the young designer who was speaking indiscriminately.

The person quickly explained, "Crystal Stone is a computer graphics company. Their computer renderings are quite famous in the industry, and they can be regarded as the top CG company in China! We are now making computer renderings and planning drawings, and the texture materials we use. A lot of them use materials produced by their company.”

"By the way...you wait a moment."

After saying this, the man got up and rushed out of the conference room, and less than half a minute later, he returned to the conference room with three beautifully wrapped gift boxes in his arms.

Put it on the table, open one of the boxes, pointed to a thick stack of CDs inside and said: "These are art material CDs made by Crystal Stone. Each CD contains hundreds of megabytes of high-resolution picture materials, each Various materials, textures, flowers and trees, garden landscapes, animals, characters, props, buildings, props, models, icons, cartoons, etc., etc., 2D, 3D, everything, everything!"

What the hell!

It takes no effort to get it!

While Fang Jie was greatly surprised, he only heard the person continue to introduce: "This box is the architectural design material library, and the other two boxes are the advertising picture material library, CAD construction drawing and decoration picture material library. Each box costs 120 yuan. A CD-ROM, covering everything, and a color-printed atlas catalogue. Mr. Fang, do you think this is what you need?"

"Okay, great!"

Fang Jie couldn't help but slapped his thigh, wishing he could rush forward to save the man and kiss him.

But in the end, he just held the three boxes of material libraries full of CDs in front of him, and looked through them for a long time without putting them down.

After calming down, Fang Jie asked, "Where did you get all these?"

The other party said in astonishment: "I bought it from Computer City..."

As he said that, he smiled embarrassedly: "I can only buy pirated copies. The pirated version costs more than 200 yuan, and the genuine one costs more than 600 yuan. It is produced by Crystal Stone Company."

Fang Jie couldn't help sighing again: "Crystal Stone Company is so powerful? Can a company produce so many materials?"

"Ha," the man said with a smile, "How is that possible. Some of them are their own renderings and materials, most of which are copied from the Internet and abroad, and then made into a material library to sell for money."

Before he finished speaking, the man changed his tone again: "However, let's be honest. When it comes to computer graphics, Crystal Stone Company is currently the most powerful company in China. 90% of the architectural planning renderings in China have their company's shadow. It’s not that they did the project, but many design institutes and companies are using their material library. Therefore, the renderings made by everyone have many similar elements, especially the tone style, which is basically based on the style of crystal stone. Top standard in the industry.”

These words, to a group of senior engineers in the design institute, sounded like they were listening to a scripture.

The group of senior engineers in the design institute is very good. The renderings and planning drawings are all hand-painted. If you have this craft in 20 years, you will definitely be like a god.

But computer graphics...

Just like the teachers and students of the Academy of Art and Design, no.

Even worse than the situation at the Academy of Art and Design.

Since at least 2000, the School of Art and Design has offered computer-aided design courses, and students have gradually begun to pay attention to the application of computer graphics. However, in the Design Institute, because domestic talents have not yet been cultivated, computer graphics talents are rare.

This has also led to the fact that any designer who understands computer graphics now enters the design institute as a reserve cadre to be trained, because everyone in the design institute can draw by hand, but now it is popular outside to look at high-end computer renderings. If you want to convert your renderings into computer renderings, you have to ask these young people.

This situation is exactly the same as the art department of Boiling Games. There are many people who are good at hand-painting, but there are very few people who understand computer drawing tools.

This is also the reason why this young designer, who borrowed flowers to present Buddha, is qualified to attend such an important project seminar. Such talents who understand computer graphics are national treasures in the design institute, and their opinions must be taken seriously.

After the meeting, Fang Jie sent an invitation directly to the other party: "Are you interested in working in our Boiling game? Guaranteed high salary..."

"Ah? This..."

The man was hesitating, but Jiang Zhengrong, the dean of the design institute, immediately stopped him: "Mr. Fang, you are being unkind! How can you poach someone in front of me?"

As he said that, he looked at Xiao Guo again: "Let me make a point, Xiao Guo, you are a talent I personally recruited, and now you are an important outstanding talent and reserve cadre in our institute. I trained you as the vice president. Don't let me down!"

Well, the dean has talked about this point, Xiao Guo can only nod again and again, dispelling all the thoughts that should not be thought.

But Fang Jie just mentioned it casually. Of course it would be better if the other party can come. If he can't come, he also has a way...

On the way back to the company, Fang Jie arranged a task for the accompanying secretary: "Zi Yuan, no matter what method you use, within three days, get all kinds of information about Crystal Stone Company, the more detailed the better."

Zi Yuan didn't ask anything, just responded: "Okay."

Kaiwu couldn't help but confirm: "Boss, are you going to buy Crystal Stone Company?"

Isn't this nonsense!

That Xiao Guo was only using the material library sorted out by the Crystal Stone Company, and he was regarded as a favorite by the design institute. Then, if we just bought the Crystal Stone Company, wouldn't it be once and for all?
Although the main business of this company is to make computer renderings of architectural planning, it is actually related to game production.

The scene map in the game is also a kind of planning and design, and the buildings in the game are also architectural design, which also requires CAD drawing, 3D modeling, and PS texture.

All employees in a company know how to make computer graphics, and they are all masters in computer graphics technology. No matter how much money is spent, they still have to buy it!
Back at the company, Fang Jie showed everyone the crystal stone material library brought back from the design institute, and then asked all the artists to start processing these hundreds of CDs full of materials, read and store the materials to the hard disk , and then adjust.

In fact, the material library in the CD has been divided into categories, but when the crystal stone company made these materials, it was also a variety of excerpts, and the work was not detailed enough. Now Boiling Games is organizing these materials more finely. The size, resolution, and image format are subdivided and organized.

However, in this way, a new problem was encountered.
