Chapter 561 Real Machine Demonstration

"This is our experimental machine room. After receiving Miss Luo's investment, we started the machine's energy supply experiment again, and the progress is very smooth now."

In the corridor, Nicholas said to the three people behind him through the glass.

In the laboratory, some workers were testing parameters in front of computers, while others were debugging machines. Everyone performed their duties with serious expressions.

It looks quite like that, Eric thought in his mind, and then nodded slightly.

Luo Quan didn't say much during the whole process because she knew nothing about this. It was taboo for a layman to guide an expert, so just watch quietly.

"If the funds are sufficient, how long will it take for it to be officially put into use?" Before entering the laboratory, Eric had already visited several departments of the company.

The equipment, personnel and various technical data are very complete. His friend told him that this is a company that is developing new energy, and it seems that the technology is really thoughtful.

Since there is no problem with the technology, what he wants to do is how to put it into production as soon as possible to seize the market.

Tesla has now taken the lead, but it is said that the quality control of its products is quite substandard, and minor accidents occur frequently. Therefore, although the stock market has been rising, offline sales are very poor.

The main reason why the stock market is so optimistic is that there is only one mature new energy vehicle company at present, so consumers have no choice, and capital also has no choice.

"One year at most!" Nikolai's words were very certain. "The experiment has entered the final stage. The next step is loading, debugging and fault testing. It does not take too much time to put into production. After all, the modern industrial system Already quite mature.

However, Miss Luo previously said that she wanted to use new energy on ships. This is a very good idea, but it is not easy to realize, and the scale of the current new energy engines is not enough to support a behemoth like a ship. It needs to be carried out. Modify and experiment. "

Eric was a little surprised when he heard what Nicholas said, and then looked at his daughter with pleased eyes. This was obviously for the sake of his new company.

"Don't be anxious about the ship. Take your time step by step. Finish the car first and then think about the ship."

The inspection is almost complete and there are basically no major problems.

However, according to Nikola, the money is basically enough now, so no big investment is needed for the time being.

This was exactly what Eric wanted. Although he had saved a lot of spare money over the years, he basically used it to run the shipping company.

Although there are many manors and real estate in Britain and the United States, it will take some time to realize them, so he will not be able to spend much money in a short time.

As for his father, he has no intention of asking the old man for money again. Some things are better handled by himself.

"There is nothing to worry about money. My new movie will be released soon, and there will be hundreds of millions in cash flow." Luo Quan said to his father on the plane back.

She is quite confident about "Silence of the Lambs".

Although this is not a commercial film in the traditional sense, with its excellent script and god-level performances, it will definitely not be bad at the box office, not to mention the three golden names of her and Leon Carillian.

If the three of them make a movie together, even an epic bad movie will definitely make a lot of money. This is the benefit of a huge fan base.

"Hundreds of millions?" Eric was a little surprised when he heard this number. "Is it so profitable to make a movie?"

Although he has not taken care of the family business much, it is impossible that he was born in this family and has not learned how to do business.

He was very clear about the concept of hundreds of millions of working capital. Even large companies with a market value of several billion dollars could not come up with hundreds of millions of cash in one fell swoop without selling fixed assets.

And listening to my daughter's tone, it seems that this number is not a big deal.

"It's quite profitable. The box office of "Rurouni Kenshin" alone made me more than 100 million US dollars, not counting the subsequent peripheral output.

In addition, because "The Queen Wears Chanel" was released globally, the total box office was even higher. It was the income from these two movies that allowed me to collect the first investment funds. "Luo Quan spoke eloquently to his father's question.

For an artist of her level, making money is indeed quite easy.

This is why she is relatively lazy. Many domestic production crews offer her hundreds of millions to film movies. If they all accepted, her current assets would probably double.

"No wonder." Eric now understood why his daughter didn't take the money as money. It turned out that it took no effort at all.

"Actually, in addition to movies, I am also engaged in the gaming industry. If I start this business, I can continue to make money for more than ten or twenty years."

Luo Quan told his father about his game company plan. Compared with movies, the development prospects of the game industry are also very huge.

Especially in China, think about it, some low-quality reskinned mobile games can make so much money. If one day a high-quality mobile game that is comparable to console games appears, it will not be until next year. Ten billion?

Not to mention the even larger computer game market, which is completely unexplored and has no rivals at all.

After listening to his daughter's confident thoughts about the future, Eric saw the prototype of a business empire in her words...

September 23rd will be a day destined to be recorded in the history of gaming.

Luo Quan, who was fishing at home, received a video sent to her by Li Jiang, which was a game demonstration of "Final Fantasy".

The editing of "The Silence of the Lambs" has been completed and has been sent for review pending further notice.

However, with Karan's relationship, it is estimated that the review department will open the door for convenience.

It is best if the movie is not made into an R-rated movie, otherwise it will affect the box office to some extent.

In the past few days while waiting for the announcement, Luo Quan has been live broadcasting basically every day. The euphemistic claim is that fans will not be lonely, but in fact it is just fishing.

And Luo Quan, who had been idle for so long, finally got something to do, and that was the actual machine demonstration sent by Li Jiang.

This video is actually a real-life demonstration of a small scene, and the rest are more CGs made with Unreal Engine. However, Li Jiang believes that this picture can be achieved after the game is completely completed, so he treats it as It's a real machine demonstration.

There is some false propaganda about the meaning of big pie, but when the technical ability is fully achieved, this is not false at all.

According to Li Jiang, the game has now begun to enter the sprint stage.

With the copywriting, character world setting, composition, and gameplay provided by Luo Quan, all they have to do is use Unreal Engine to shape these.

Compared with creation, they only do the simplest technical work, just stacking materials, without using their brains.

Unreal Engine is originally an engine characterized by fast output, so the game can start A-test by the Chinese New Year next year at the latest.

And this actual machine demonstration video was produced just to warm up the game.

There has been no movement for more than half a month, and the popularity of "Final Fantasy" on the Internet seems to have subsided. This is not what they want to see.

The aroma of wine is not afraid of the deep alleys, that is all old history. Now if the work wants to be popular, who is not working hard to promote it?

Therefore, the actual demonstration video of "Final Fantasy" came into being.

After getting it, Luo Quan immediately uploaded it to the accounts of "Final Fantasy" on Station B and Twitter, and then forwarded it using his own account.

Once the video was uploaded, it shocked the entire gaming community.

Prior to this, the graphics quality of most games on the market were still cartoon-like.

In China and even in Asia, Korean greasy style is used, while in the West, American comic style is used.

Although technology has been improving and modeling has become more and more sophisticated, the biggest problem with image quality is that it is not realistic enough.

After all, games are just games and cannot be compared with movies or even reality.

This is really a pity for a large group of true lovers who regard games as the ninth art of mankind.

However, after the Frost Flower engine came out, players saw hope, and saw the hope of using the fake to resemble the real and using the game to present reality.

But at that time, no one thought that China would be the fastest to realize this hope.

In this desert of single-player masterpieces, in this environment full of piracy, reskinned mobile games, and everyone is keen on moba and chicken-eating, a game with picture quality comparable to movies was born!

At the beginning of the video, the protagonist, who has blond hair and a sword, is simply walking in the slums, surrounded by metal full of oil and rust, and the ground is covered with sand and yellow soil.

Everything seems so real, no different from the real world.

The camera zoomed in and focused on the protagonist's face. The skin texture, layered hair, and looming pores that were hard to distinguish between real and fake made a group of veteran players shout that they had never heard of it.

And then an even more shocking scene happened. As the camera moved, the sunlight in the sky also changed, until a suitable angle was reached between the two, and the players saw circles of light. Halo, and the colorful dispersion inside.

At this moment, countless people had goosebumps on their bodies.

Is this really a game? Is this really not a movie?

As if it had already known that players would have such questions, a paragraph appeared above the video: Do ​​you think this is just a fantasy?

The next second, the screen went black.

When it lights up again, it's a scene of the protagonist running on a gloomy industrial pipe.

Surrounded by enemies swarming towards him, the protagonist slashes at them with the big sword in his hand. The powerful blow and gorgeous spark special effects can only be described as explosive.

Then the scenes kept changing, and the enemies we faced also kept changing.

Fantasy, reality, beauty, and grandeur, countless pictures impact players' vision and hearing. Even if it is just a video of less than eight minutes, the shock it can bring is no less than that of an animated blockbuster.

Just like the name of this game, this is a "Final Fantasy" dedicated to all players who love games.

The video ends soon, with the protagonist looking up at the night sky, filled with bright stars.

In the barrage, there are words such as "must buy" and "shocked".

In less than half an hour, the number of views of the live demo of "Final Fantasy" reached 3 million. This growth rate of clicks has already ranked among the top ten in the history of Bilibili!

The comment with the highest number of likes in the comment area was posted by Luo Quan:

This is the final fantasy that belongs to all of us. Now this fantasy is being produced bit by bit. Here, you can experience the real physics engine, real character emotions, and real light and shadow special effects.

We will use the best technology to bring you an artistic feast that belongs to the game. The only thing you have to do is to prepare your equipment. You can look forward to the game as much as possible. I believe it will definitely You won't be disappointed!

This is a declaration from Luo Quan to all players, and it is also a promise.

Before this video was released, this promise was somewhat weak.

But now that the actual machine demonstration is in front of us, the quality is truly epoch-making. Now everyone is no longer worried about the quality of the game, but is worried about whether their machine can drive the game.

Although Luo Quan said before that she would optimize the game as much as possible so that players with core graphics can play it, she did not say what the specific configuration of core graphics is. There are CPUs with core graphics that sell for 4,000 to 5,000 yuan on the market. Not without.

(ps. Here is an explanation for book friends who don’t understand. If a computer wants to play games, the CPU and graphics card are usually the two most important components. The better these two are, the smoother the game will be.

The so-called core graphics refers to the CPU's own graphics card function. The performance is generally not as good as that of an independent graphics card, but the price is cheaper. )

Judging from the current graphics of this game, it is estimated that if you want to get an excellent experience, 2080ti may not be able to achieve this guarantee.

It can only be said that fortunately the price of Bitcoin has collapsed and the price of graphics cards has fallen back. Otherwise, it would be impossible for everyone to buy a slightly better graphics card.

And just when the players at Station B were praising its awesomeness and worrying about their equipment, there was also a huge shock to this video on Twitter.

The conditions for foreign players are relatively favorable. It can be said that they have been exposed to various AAA masterpieces since childhood. PS4 and even computers are not scarce equipment.

But even though they grew up in such an environment, they have never seen such a battle.

This picture is so ridiculously good, it’s just like it was shot with a camera. No game company has ever made a game that can compete with it, not even a promotional video!

Although there are already Frost Moon Flower engines abroad, everyone is still in the exploration and planning stage, and most of them have not yet started construction.

As for Luo Quan, they even had a real machine demonstration.

This means that she has been completely at the forefront of the entire era. Regardless of the quality of this game, it will leave a mark in the history of the game!
