Chapter 761 Do you want to practice again?(1/2)
Yu Dong took a sip of tea and asked with a smile, "Have you ever thought about making "Warcraft" into an online game?"
Mike Mohan and Alan Adhan had strange expressions because they had been preparing for this recently.
It may not be right to say that it is preparation, but it is just an idea in this regard. This idea almost came out together with the idea of "Warcraft 3".
Of course, right now, there is only a general idea for the entire game, not even a detailed plan.
They don't understand why YU mentioned online games, because even in their own eyes, the idea of online games is still a bit unrealistic.
"Well... it would be great if it could be made into an online game. However, our company is currently quite nervous in terms of technology. We still have to make "Warcraft 3". I'm afraid we don't have time to make online games for the time being. YU, what do you think about "Warcraft 3"?"
"Is it very suitable for online games?" Alan Adham said.
His words were somewhat tentative, and Yu Dong was noncommittal, "I'm just asking casually. I'm still looking forward to the new version of "Warcraft". If it can make changes, it can enter the World Electronic Game Competition and become a
An independent competition event."
In fact, Yu Dong also wants to talk about DOTA. After all, this gameplay is a very important thing in Warcraft, and the things derived from it in the later period have great potential.
However, thinking that "Warcraft 3" has not yet been released, I gave up. At least we will have to wait until the new mode is released before we have the opportunity to mention DOTA.
Anyway, now that Blizzard is in the pocket, the initiative is in their hands, and they can start related projects at any time.
Yu Dong did not stay with Mike Mohan and Alan Adhan, and it could be seen that these two people had no intention of having a long conversation with him.
As soon as Mike Mohan and the others left, Zhang Yimou started chatting.
As soon as he arrived at Yu Dong's office, Zhang Yimou sighed deeply, then sat down on the sofa with a tired look on his face.
This was the first time that Yu Dong saw Zhang Yimou looking so cowardly. Although he didn't talk much, his energy was always very good.
"What's wrong?" Yu Dong asked, "Is it the post-production work of "Golden Dreamland"? What went wrong?"
The filming of "Golden Dreamland" has long been completed, but the post-production work has not been particularly smooth, and Zhang Yimou has never been satisfied with the cutout.
So seeing Zhang Yimou like this, Yu Dong thought it was because of the later period.
Zhang Yimou shook his head, "The post-production work of "Golden Dream" is almost done. I have been thinking about the Olympic bid for the past two days. They want me to shoot a promotional video. Do you know this?"
"Yeah, I know." Yu Dong nodded: "What the Olympic bid committee means is to let our deep space assist Yanjing Studio to shoot a promotional video. It did mention that we want you to direct it. But it's still early, we are sure to be selected.
The city has to wait until the middle of next year. If it really wants to shoot a promotional video, it will have to wait until at least the second half of next year. There is no use shooting it too early."
"When I say this now, it should be the middle of this year. It's already January 2000."
Yu Dong smiled and said: "Isn't it still early? As for starting to worry about this matter so early? Besides, you have managed a tens of millions of dollars plan like "Golden Dreamland" from beginning to end. It's just a publicity.
Can a movie make you bald?"
"no the same."
Zhang Yimou didn't say why it was different, but Du Dong expressed his understanding.
No matter how much the cost of "Golden Dreamland" is, it is a commercial act. If it is done wrong, the losses will also be commercial.
But if the promotional video is not shot well, the country loses face. This pressure is much greater than making a movie.
"Do you have any ideas now?" Yu Dong asked.
Zhang Yimou shook his head, "Now my head is a mess."
Yu Dong said with a smile: "Then don't think about it now. Since the post-production work of "Golden Dreamland" is almost done, let's take advantage of this time to have a good rest. Before the annual meeting, there is a World Electronic Game Competition.
, you can go and have a look, relax, the next few days will be the same as last year. Maybe if you play around, you will get some ideas."
"It's not that simple...you think everyone is like you. I read "The Snowman" and it was really well written."
"I think you're still not anxious enough. Otherwise, why would you still have time to read novels?"
"I took the time to watch it."
Zhang Yimou fell asleep with his back on the sofa. Yu Dong ignored him and continued to do his work.
After about twenty minutes, Zhang Yimou slowly opened his eyes and suddenly asked: "Does your World Electronic Game Competition have an opening ceremony?"
"Yes, but it's very simple and there are no programs."
"How about leaving the opening ceremony to me?"
Hearing Zhang Yimou's words, Yu Dong couldn't help rolling his eyes, "Do you want to use the opening ceremony of the World Electronic Game Competition to practice? Are you addicted to practicing?"
"It can't be said that you are practicing..." Zhang Yimou wanted to find a word to defend himself, but after thinking for a long time, he simply gave up the defense and said, "Just think of it as practicing. You don't have any opening ceremony anyway."
"Because there is no need for a grand opening ceremony, the audience is there for the competition. The schedule is already quite tight, and it is really inappropriate to allocate time for the opening ceremony."
"I don't agree with what you said. Yes, the audience must go there for the game competition, just like everyone goes to the Olympics to watch various sports, but isn't the opening ceremony of the Olympics also very important? The opening ceremony
The ceremony can be said to be the facade of an event. If the opening ceremony is not done well, it means that the facade is not done well. Don't you always value this very much? Why did you do it so carelessly this time?"
Yu Dong waved his hand and showed that he would not accept Zhang Yimou's tricks at all.
"There are only a few days until the competition. Even if you want to do it, you can't do it."
"That's enough, there's definitely enough time. Then we'll have an opening ceremony that lasts about ten minutes. What do you think?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Before Yu Dong could reply, Zhang Yimou said again: "In three days, no, within two days I will come up with the opening ceremony plan for you to see. If you are satisfied, then I will
Start arranging it. If you are not satisfied, then don’t do it and just do it as before.”
Seeing Zhang Yimou being so active, Yu Dong sighed slightly and said: "In that case, then you have to try it, but you have to do it as soon as possible. You also know that even if our company holds an event, all the preliminary procedures must be reported.
Be prepared and there can be no mistakes. If you suddenly add a program, we will need to re-register. This will take time, and you must set aside this time."
Zhang Yimou smiled and said: "Hey, isn't it easy for your company to file the application? It's just a matter of one sentence. Is there any reason why you shouldn't pass it?"
"Don't lie, we have always followed formal procedures."
"Okay, okay, I'm just talking nonsense." Zhang Yimou stood up directly holding his knees.
Yu Dong looked up at him, "Where are you going?"
Zhang Yimou smiled and said: "I have to hurry up and come up with the plan. Is it possible that the plan can come out by itself just sitting here with you?"
"Okay, go ahead." Yu Dong waved his hand at Zhang Yimou as a farewell.
After Zhang Yimou left, Yu Dong called Yu Liang and briefly told him about Zhang Yimou's opening ceremony.
There is not much reaction to this margin. After all, the event does not have a grand opening ceremony. Now it doesn't matter if Zhang Yimou wants to have one. If it is done well, it will add color to the competition. If it is not done well, it will be thrown away.
One item has been cut and we will continue as planned.
As for reporting, as Zhang Yimou said, it is nothing to Deep Space Company. As long as it is reported by them, there is basically no failure, and the response is very fast.
This World Electronic Games Contest has attracted official attention from the beginning, especially the Jinling government. They have sent people to keep an eye on this matter from beginning to end.
If there are any decisions made in deep space, they will be actively reported to the government.
Although this is just a game competition, it can be labeled with the word "world" and is an international event. While it can bring glory to Jinling and China, it also needs to be treated with caution.
In addition, compared with last year's Deep Space Annual Conference, this year there is an additional World Electronic Game Competition. Jinling will welcome more tourists from all over the world, and the pressure on relevant units will become greater.
Of course, more pressure is put on oneself.
Although there are many tourists, if they are carefully managed, they will not cause any big trouble, but the Jinling government must have more than this in mind.
With so many tourists coming to Jinling, they are all donors. If they cannot find a way to get some money out of their pockets, it will be a failure for the Jinling government.
Therefore, as the World Electronic Game Competition approaches, the entire tourism industry in Jinling is mobilized.
…
As soon as Ren Hongfei left the train station, he felt a special and lively atmosphere.
Jinling Railway Station was much grander and more spacious than the last time he came. Speaking of which, he had not been to Jinling for five or six years.
Ren Hongfei is from Qingzhou and came to Jinling to see his aunt.
His uncle is a native of Jinling, and he and his aunt are college classmates. After graduation, they went to Jinling to work, get married, and settle down.
Ren Hongfei often came to Jinling to play when he was a child, but he hasn't been here since he entered high school.
"Hongfei, here."
There was a tall man waving to him outside the fence, and Ren Hongfei recognized him at a glance as his cousin Liu Qing.
Ren Hongfei walked over quickly. Liu Qing took the bag in his hand and said with a smile, "Is everything safe on the road?"
"Well, it's stable. It doesn't last long in total... Jinling has changed a lot in recent years. It's much more lively than before. This train station must have been renovated."
Liu Qing nodded, "Well, the previous station building is not enough. We built a new station building and only started using it this year. How about it? It's grand, right?"
"The grandeur is greater than before, and there are more people than before, but it is not as chaotic as before."
"Haha, of course, especially during this period, the order on site was managed very well."
"During this period, why? Because it's almost the Chinese New Year?"
Liu Qing clicked his tongue, "You don't know about the Deep Space Annual Meeting, do you?"
In Liu Qing's opinion, Ren Hongfei is also a college student, so he shouldn't be unaware of the Deep Space Annual Meeting.
"I have heard of the Deep Space Annual Conference, but can their annual conference have such a big battle? Can it also affect the train station?"
"Haha." Liu Qing laughed and said, "What does this mean? The WCG will start in two days. I will take you to see the world. I will definitely dazzle you by then. Come on, let's go home first."
