Chapter 203 The Beginning of "Adventure King"
Zhang Lexing raised his wrist and looked at his watch. It was already [-]:[-] p.m., so the plane should be coming. Fortunately, Cheng Beier, the administrative secretary of Dongfang Electronic Entertainment Co., Ltd., brought a piece of good news from BJ The incoming flight has successfully landed at Hong Kong Kai Tak Airport, and Zhang Lexing finally let go of his heart that has been hanging over him.

Standing outside the terminal and waiting for another half an hour, the 18-person development team from the creative workshop dragged their luggage and came out one after another along the passenger passage. Although the crowd was very turbulent at this time, their They all wear uniform hats on their heads, which is easy to recognize in the crowd.Looking at the familiar or unfamiliar figures gradually approaching, Zhang Lexing was in a trance for a while, as if he had returned to the time when the team of game development rookies went abroad for the first time several years ago. Individuals, several of whom happened to be among those who came this time.

"Boss~" Zhong Guoqiang, who was walking in the front and dressed as a team leader, waved excitedly when he saw Zhang Lexing coming in person, and the people behind him also quickened their pace and surrounded him.

"Everyone has worked hard all the way, let's get in the car first!" Zhang Lexing greeted the crowd with a smile, then called Zhong Guoqiang over, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you acting like a tourist group? Take a little flag."

Zhong Guoqiang smiled embarrassingly: "Many people came out for the first time, and they were afraid of getting separated, so..."

Zhang Lexing couldn't help laughing. There are still few opportunities for everyone to come out. It seems that in the future, we can consider providing travel incentives for outstanding teams and individuals, which can not only broaden everyone's knowledge, but also bring some unexpected ideas.

Zhong Guoqiang introduced the group members who came to Hong Kong this time to Zhang Lexing one by one: "Boss, we have a total of eighteen people here this time, including four with more than five years of experience, five with more than three years of experience, and the rest. There are five people and four people with two-year and more than one-year experience respectively, and they are all the best people in the majors of planning, programming and art. This is Xu Ze..."

While listening to Zhong Guoqiang's introduction, Zhang Lexing shook hands with the people he introduced, and by the way, he said a few words of encouragement. He still counted on these people to do his project, and of course he would not put on airs at this time.

After Zhong Guoqiang finished his introduction, everyone boarded the bus parked on the side of the road one after another, and the bodyguards were divided into two groups. Some people followed Zhang Lexing into the bus, and the other group took several commercial vehicles to carry out the execution before and after the bus. work of protection.Led by a commercial vehicle, the convoy quickly started heading towards the hotel.

After arriving at the hotel, Cheng Beier took the reserved room key cards from the front desk and distributed them to Zhong Guoqiang and others one by one. It is a good opportunity for her to show herself in front of the big boss. Although she is only a small administrative secretary, she is unwilling to be a secretary forever. She hopes to have her own office one day.After Cheng Bei'er issued the room card, she took a sneak peek at Zhang Lexing carefully. She found that the big boss's face didn't look very good, and her heart couldn't help but tremble: "Could it be that I did something wrong?"

Poor Cheng Bei'er didn't know that Zhang Lexing didn't notice the issue of her room card at all just now, and his complexion was not very good at this time. In fact, he thought of something, which was planned to be realized through motion capture in "Adventure King" More realistic martial arts fighting effects, but he just forgot to discuss this matter with Ma Guanghai.Although Ma Guanghai is his bodyguard and driver, collecting martial arts moves is not part of his daily work scope, and this is also a bit suspected of spying on martial arts secrets. Zhang Lexing is really not sure that he will agree.

Fortunately, Ma Guanghai was not far behind, and there would be some twists and turns in the future. Zhang Lexing immediately walked over and told him his thoughts in detail. Unexpectedly, Ma Guanghai was quite open-minded, and he agreed immediately. Zhang Lexing's only worry was gone.

Uneasy Cheng Beier glanced at Zhang Lexing secretly again, she was surprised to find that the big boss's complexion had improved again, now she was completely confused, she had no idea what her performance today was in the big boss What kind of impression was left in the boss's heart, she had no choice but to stand in the hall and sigh helplessly.

According to Zhang Lexing's idea, Zhong Guoqiang and his group flew all the way here, and they must have a rest. If there is anything to do, we will talk about it tomorrow. Unexpectedly, after they returned to the room and put their luggage away, they could not wait to start working immediately. In desperation, Zhang Lexing I had no choice but to follow the public opinion, and held the first pre-conference of "Adventure King" in the conference room of the hotel.

Zhang Lexing took out the prepared materials and distributed them to everyone, and then introduced his idea straight to the point: "The background of the game took place in 1932. At that time in Shanghai, the adventure king and his assistant opened a private detective. One day, a mysterious client came to the detective agency and asked Adventure King to help him find an ancient jade slip. According to the client, this jade slip may have fallen into the hands of an RB man named Jiro Tanaka, so The adventure king and his assistants started the investigation of Tanaka Jiro, which triggered a series of adventures..."

After listening to Zhang Lexing's introduction of the story about "King of Adventure", Zhong Guoqiang finally couldn't help but stood up and asked: "Boss, I read the information just now, and this seems to be an idea I proposed before."

Zhang Lexing nodded and said, "That's right, this is the original idea, but I added some content to make it more perfect. If you want, I plan to let you be in charge of this project."

Zhong Guoqiang was taken aback. Although he had several years of development experience, he had never really been on his own. Unexpectedly, his boss trusted him so much. He couldn't help but nodded excitedly: "Boss, I will definitely do my best. Will never live up to your expectations."

"I don't know if you have read the information. The concept of this game is very grand, and it also involves motion capture. I hope you will take it seriously." Although Zhang Lexing intends to let Zhong Guoqiang take over the development of this game, he doesn't want to be entrusted by him. People, so I specially reminded it.

Zhong Guoqiang seemed to have realized it, his face became more cautious, and he picked up the documents again and read them carefully, while the others looked at Zhong Guoqiang with envious eyes, especially those three who were the same age as him, all took the plane together I didn't expect Zhong Guoqiang to be so lucky.

"I temporarily call this game "Adventure King". It is an action-adventure game. The scenes will include some streets in Shanghai, the interior of some buildings, some scenes in the wild, and even ancient tombs. The protagonist in the game needs to Complete the decryption by climbing, dragging, jumping and other actions, and also need to fight to destroy the enemy. In order to make these actions more realistic, I plan to use motion capture technology..." Zhang Lexing then explained the idea of ​​"The King of Adventure" Speak up.

At this time, one of the old employees, Ma Yongqiang, stood up and said: "Boss, we have never done this motion capture, I'm afraid..."

Zhang Lexing comforted him with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this. There is a company called Oriental Shenyun here that does special effects for movies. Their motion capture equipment is there. Your studio is also set up there this time. Their Someone can teach you how to use it. Or take you to see it tomorrow, it is not difficult to use it, anyway, you will have to get in touch with it sooner or later."

After talking about the concept of "Adventure King" for a while, Zhang Lexing felt that everyone didn't understand what he heard, so he drew a schematic diagram on the whiteboard in the meeting room, and then said: "Look, everyone, this is a game I imagined. Scene, somewhere inside the Japanese headquarters building."

"People can stand on the crossbeam. There is a certain distance between the two beams. It is impossible to jump directly according to the routine. You need to jump into the air and grab the opposite beam with one hand..." Zhang Lexing said while gesturing on the whiteboard: "In short, unlike the current action games, which are just simple running and jumping, there must be more complex movements, just like some dangerous movements in action movies."

After casually erasing the diagram on the whiteboard, Zhang Lexing drew a picture of two people confronting each other again. "I don't know if you have played "VR Warrior". In my vision, I hope that when fighting, I hope to achieve a look similar to "VR Warrior". There must be a very realistic fighting effect..." Zhang Lexing said, While imitating Ma Guanghai's moves, he gestured a few times: "I hope that the real martial arts effect can be played in the game."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Lexing looked at the expressions of everyone and found that everyone seemed to be still in deep thought, so he waved his hand and announced, "That's all for now, everyone take the information back and think about it, if you have any questions, let's go to the action tomorrow." Let’s talk after capturing the equipment. Oh, I’ve arranged dinner for everyone, and don’t forget to go to the restaurant on the second floor at six o’clock. Alright, the meeting is over!”

The first pre-meeting of "Adventure King" ended hastily like this. Although there can't be any results, Zhang Lexing is not in a hurry. He knows that this game can't be created all at once. At least he wants to achieve the desired effect. It is estimated that the application of 3D accelerator card is indispensable, plus what motion capture, martial arts system and the like are still new topics for these developers.I would like to help, but what I can do in the current environment is very limited. At most, I can provide the best development environment as much as possible. Whether it can be done and what it can be done can only be seen in this group. The developers own it.
