Chapter 2644 Game Engine Or

"Hey, recently there is a "Black Myth: Wukong" that is very popular on the Internet, have you noticed?" Shen Long picked up the phone and called the executive of his own special effects company.

"I've seen it. The special effects are really good. You can tell that you put your heart into it, but there is still a big gap compared with ours. For the same picture, we use the software you developed, and it is definitely better than theirs. Faster and better!" In terms of CG special effects technology, he is absolutely confident.

"This team is good. You can get in touch with them to see if there is any opportunity for cooperation. This game is very interesting. I want to get started early. If they need help, whether it is lack of money or lack of technology, these are all It's easy to say, let's help as much as we can!" Shen Long said.

Boss, or are you cheating, just to play the game earlier, are you willing to pay such a big capital? The executive asked tentatively, "What if they plan to use our software?"

"It's ok, isn't the software made for people to use? They can buy it with money, and we can use the software to buy shares if we don't have money, as long as the game can be made early." Hey, even if the game can be sold Go to five million copies, how much is that? Shen Long didn't care at all.

"Okay, I'll go talk to them right away!" The executive wiped off his sweat, found a few people, and got a call from the producer of "Black Myth: Wukong". They can barely be regarded as people in the same circle. , this little thing is not difficult.

During this period of time, the producer of "Black Myth: Wukong" has been answering the phone frequently. There is no way, that short film is really popular. Some want to invest with money, and some want to poach people because of their skills. The latter On the contrary, it was a little more, which made him a little unwilling to answer the phone, so he was a little cold at first.

But when the executives reported their company's name, the other party's tone suddenly changed, "Oh, your company's name is well known in the industry, and the pictures and videos you posted on Weibo are comparable to our company's level. It’s much higher, our technicians studied it for a long time, but they didn’t understand how you did it.”

"It's actually very simple. We have used better special effects production software. If you judge it by the software level in the past, you can't see anything." The executive said proudly, this is more advanced than Industrial Light & Magic and Weta Studios technology.

"What kind of software is it? Where did you get it? Can we use it?" The producer asked a series of questions, and he had actually been thinking about these questions for a long time.

"Why don't you come to our company and see it with your own eyes!" The executive immediately issued an invitation, and the other party readily accepted the invitation, and soon entered their company.

When they entered the office of the special effects production team, they were dumbfounded, "It's so simple to finish a picture? If it were our company, it would take at least three days, right?"

"Isn't this detail amazing? Any screenshot can be used as a desktop! The movement is also very smooth, not stiff and jerky at all. If we can apply this technology to our game, then we can take "Black Myth" "Wukong" went abroad to participate in the E3 game exhibition, those foreign companies and players must be crazy!"

"You guys are working on the "Three-Body Problem" animation now? When will it be launched? I've been looking forward to it for a long time!" This person's words made everyone in the office look sideways. How dare you rush others? Still think about when your game will be finished.

"Hehe, it must have come out before your game!" Someone sneered. They have also studied "Black Myth: Wukong" during this period of time. After all, they are basically half of their peers. It is natural to understand such a sensational event.

"That's the special effects software you use.

If we were given the same software, we could at least cut the time in half! "This guy felt something was wrong as soon as he finished speaking. Sure enough, when he saw the boss, his face was completely drooping. If you are so excited, even if he is willing to cooperate, he will kill you severely.

The executives of the special effects company held back their smiles and welcomed them into the office. Since you have the idea of ​​cooperation, it is good. When they arrived in the meeting room, the boss of the game producer simply said, "Your software is really powerful, we I really want it too, I don’t know what you want?”

"Since everyone has the sincerity to cooperate, it will be easy to handle. In fact, we just want to meet players with such a good game sooner..." After the politeness, the executive Barabara set out his own conditions, "Our company has The film and television development department, so I hope to get the film and television adaptation rights of "Black Myth: Wukong", and even plan to launch it simultaneously with the game at that time, is this also a good promotion!"

This condition can be described as mutually beneficial, so the game producer quickly agreed, and then the executives calculated for him, how much time, manpower and material resources can be saved by using the software designed by Shen Long, Barabara said A lot, and then began to talk about shares.

The game producers persisted for a while, but their most important goal was to produce the game earlier and strive to produce better works, so after the executives reduced the share requirements, they also agreed.

Now it's much easier. I sent them a trial version of the software to go back for testing. After the testing is completed, they can officially sign the contract. After they left, the executive immediately called Shen Long and asked Shen Long for credit. .

"Well, you did a good job. After signing the contract, I will give you a bonus. By the way, you can ask them again, do you want a new game engine?" Shen Long said with a smile. A good game is not just about special effects. However, the game engine is equally important.

A game engine is a set of codes (instructions) designed for a machine running a certain type of game that can be recognized by the machine. It is like an engine and controls the operation of the game.

A game work can be divided into two parts: game engine and game resources; game resources include images, sounds, animations, etc., and a formula is: engine (program code) + resources (images, sounds, animations, etc.), game The engine calls these resources sequentially according to the requirements of the game design.

"Black Myth: Wukong" uses the famous Unreal Engine. This engine is really good, but compared to what Shen Long made himself, it is not enough. Shen Long just messed around these days, and then let Bai Ze perfect it After a while, the game engine was fiddled with.

"You can even make a game engine?" The executive was overjoyed. It seems that agreeing to be acquired by Shen Long was definitely a wise decision!
