Build a game empire from scratch

In a blink of an eye, two more days passed, and it was a new month, a new week.

Lin You came to Yunmeng Studio ahead of time, which is rare, to hold a meeting for everyone and officially start the game production of John Wick.

However, it is probably because his concept of commuting to and from work on time has been implemented too successfully. At this time, there is only one girl, Ye Xiaohe, in the office.

He didn't care, and went to his office after saying hello. Anyway, the meeting was held in the virtual world.

Staying in the office, he is not only thinking about the situation of the next meeting, but also thinking about the arrangement of visual and auditory aids.

In the experience store on Saturday, he was deeply impressed by the scene of bringing vision aids to the little girl.

Because of congenital blindness, the little girl's eyes look good, and the water is very beautiful, but because she has no focus, she lacks a little aura.

After putting on the auxiliary equipment, the little girl's eyes widened immediately, and she looked around curiously, as if she had become a normal person's healthy eyes.

But Lin You knew very well that this was an illusion.

This is just after the brain is deceived, the subconsciously controls the eyeballs to move. What actually works is the high-definition camera that rotates synchronously on the headband.

The evidence is obvious: the little girl's eyes are round and round. Although she is cute, if you look closely, you will find that she has become a little squinted at this time.

——This is because the little girl's height, head width, eye distance, etc. are completely different from Lin You.

The initial parameters of the equipment were all designed by Lin You based on his own body during the test.

Once the little girl puts it on, although it works without any hindrance and achieves the effect of regaining sight, a slight shift in focus and viewing angle is unavoidable.

However, this is also expected by Lin You. To wear glasses, you need to adjust the temples and nose pads, not to mention more complicated visual aids.

The headband has already left room for adjustment, unless the head is too small or too big, at the level of a big-headed son and a small-headed father-then it can't be adjusted well.

Otherwise, after about 5 years old, the size of the head of a normal human being is within an adjustable range, and the best use effect can be achieved.

Lin You patiently adjusted the radius of the headband, the position and angle of the camera for the little girl, while recording the key parameters.

At the same time, he was thankful that, fortunately, when he was making AR games and selling equipment to people with normal vision, he didn't have to go through such troublesome steps, otherwise it would be too troublesome to sell.

After a normal player buys the device, he only needs to look at the specific aperture that appears in the field of view according to the built-in software, and then he can assist the camera to automatically calibrate, without the trouble of manual work.

As for the radius of the head ring, you can also manually adjust it yourself according to the scale given by the system.

In addition, in Lin You's original imagination, vision and hearing aids, including future AR devices, can be made into various decorations, such as hats, hair bands, sports foreheads, etc.

But when it was actually made and tested, he realized that that kind of idea was too idealistic.

If you don’t want to have problems such as squinting, upturned eyes, and cross-eyed eyes after using it for a long time, the angle and position of the camera must be done very carefully.

Even for people with normal eyesight, if the visual focus of the naked eye is different from the focus of the camera on the device, it will be very uncomfortable to use.

Forced adaptation may also cause problems such as astigmatism, strabismus, and even vision loss in the long run.

So in the end, he simply gave up that fancy idea and chose the simplest method - just make a headband!

Let's get on with the head ring, let's do whatever we want!

And the head ring has another big advantage - it is more convenient to make a standard production line, and the preparation work can be carried out very quickly!

In contrast, those gaudy ideas were troublesome except for their beauty, and they were all given up by Lin You in the end.

After spending a lot of effort, he carefully adjusted the equipment for the little girl. Looking at the little girl's eyes that seemed to have become more agile, even though he knew in his heart that this was an illusion, Lin You still felt very satisfied.

On one side, the mother of the little girl covered her mouth and began to cry as early as when the little girl saw the light of the real world and uttered the first exclamation.

When Lin You finished her work, her daughter looked around in amazement, and when she finally locked her eyes on her mother, she became tearful and almost speechless.

When the little girl saw her mother crying, she was obviously very happy, but she also shed tears.

In the end, the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Lin You looked at two people, one big and one small, crying into a ball in front of him, he was too embarrassed to speak.

He wanted to leave first to make room for them, but he had some things to explain, so he could only bite the bullet and wait for them to release all the grievances accumulated in their hearts.

When the mother calmed down, she hurriedly thanked Lin You.

Lin You didn't say much, opened the small bag at hand, and introduced them one by one.

This is wireless charging. Both the headband and the portable processing core can be charged with this, and the processing core can also be charged with a wired interface. It should be sufficient for daily use.

Lin You picked up the portable processing core and introduced it to them: Actually, this thing is a bit like a shrunken mirage host, but for the convenience of carrying around when going out, the volume is minimized as much as possible, so the performance is not very strong, and it is also No storage unit.

Maybe there will be some external plug-ins for storage in the future, but the functions are not so complete now, I hope you don't mind.

How could it be? The little girl's mother shook her head again and again, I will be satisfied if I can let Wanwan see the world, thank you! Thank you, thank you so much!

The little girl's mother was so excited that she bent her legs and wanted to kneel down and kowtow to him. Lin You was so frightened that she quickly helped him up.

After a lot of patience and consolation, he was comforted and sent away.

This incident touched him so much that he didn't take a lazy rest on Sunday, but found a professional headhunting company to help find a reliable professional manager.

After the meeting is over, I have to go to the factory to find Zhou Jingzheng to finalize the issue of opening a separate production line.

Thinking of this, he checked the time, and the employees should have arrived, so he sent a notice in the group:

Assemble, have a meeting!

This meeting is mainly to officially launch a new game project - Quick Chase!

In order to facilitate the follow-up work, Lin You chose to hold a plenary meeting directly.

The first step of the meeting is the repertoire of Yunmeng making games——

Watch the movie collectively!

After watching the movie, everyone will have a general understanding of the main plot and selling points of the game.

But only movies are not enough to be adapted into games, and a lot of painstaking efforts and efforts are required.

Lin You will point out the direction and focus of game production to everyone, and will also participate in the production of key content.

Because John Wick and League of Assassins have many similarities: they both take place in a modern urban environment, and they are all fighting with guns, racing, explosions, chasing and killing...

If enough innovation cannot be made, the two games will easily appear repetitive, causing players' aesthetic fatigue.

However, when modifying the battle scenes in the movie Quick Chase, Lin You has grasped the biggest differentiating selling point between Quick Chase and League of Assassins.

And how to build the overall style of John Wick based on this selling point, there is also a clear idea.

If he had to use one word to describe this game style, Lin You would call it——

City of Sin!
