Chapter 162 The Tournament Begins!

The annual Asia Tournament has finally started.

Since Junyue just started last year, although it already has some influence in China, it has not yet qualified for the competition.

But this year is different.

Jun Yue is almost fully loaded with the expectations of all Chinese players, and rushed to the Asian stage!

In previous years, I didn't dare to compete in the Asian Tournament, because I couldn't compete.

To be able to get a top ten is already burning incense.

And this year.

Because of Mr. Chu.

With such a legendary game godfather.

This year is the year with the highest expectations of all Chinese players!
Chu Jun just got off the plane with his assistant and translator Dai Xiaoshi.

There were dozens of fans of international students in Korea holding red cloths to welcome them.

"Brother Chu Zi, come on!!"

"This year, come back as a champion!"

"If the S-level game designer is not awarded to you, then the World Tour Organization will not be recognized by me in this life!"

"What kind of game is the new game? Can you reveal it in advance!"

"Ahh! Chu Bao, I love you!!"

Chu Jun responded with a polite smile.

And he happily signed a group photo for these overseas students in Korea.

Afterwards, take a leisurely car to the Busan Game Hall.

As the largest game base in Korea.

The Busan game venue is large enough to accommodate thousands of people to watch the game competition live.

Although for Huaxia, which has a vast land and abundant resources, these numbers are not enough to fit between the teeth.

You can find so many people in any county-level football field.

However, the Busan Games Hall is different from the temporary football field or stage field.

It is a venue dedicated to the gaming industry.

It covers an area of ​​thousands of square meters and is eight floors high.

It looks like a melted popsicle.

The envoy was that Chu Jun wanted to break his head, but he didn't realize that the popsicle had any connection with the game.

The magnificent first floor is an exhibition hall, and the marble floor is bright enough to be used as a mirror.

There are many models of game characters in it, as well as sculptures of famous scenes in the world's major games, and hand-made offices.

And so on a collection of out-of-print game cartridges.

On this grand day today, there are still many cosers from various countries coming to participate in the exhibition.

The handsome men and women in strange clothes added a bit of youthful atmosphere to the whole venue.

Many photographers held their cameras and shuttled among the various landscapes.

Before the game started, the exhibition hall on the first floor was already crowded with people, very lively.

"This is the first time for me to come to a real game venue." Dai Xiaoshi's eyes flickered with various colors of backlight, and his expression was touched.

The rosy lips were almost unable to close in surprise.

Before she officially joined Junyue, she was an accompanying interpreter.

The thing to do is to post your personal information on the translation website, and then when a company or individual needs a temporary translation, they will contact her.

Because he is proficient in multiple languages, his translation level is also very high.

Dai Xiaoshi has followed many companies and seen many worlds.

Dai Xiaoshi has also participated in meetings or events that are more gorgeous than the current scene.

However, neither is active.

Being able to be like today moved Dai Xiaoshi.

This is a very magical power.

It allows many people from all over the world to spontaneously participate in this event.

There is light in everyone's eyes.

Everyone's face is filled with joy.

It has no formalism.

The players who can come to watch this Asian Game Production Competition really like the game from the bottom of their hearts.

Just taking a photo with a game model statue will cheer and can't wait to run to see the finished product of the photo.

Dai Xiaoshi may have only felt the same atmosphere in the playground.

"The game industry is really different from other industries." She looked around, taking in all the different smiling faces of everyone.

"Because only games can give ordinary people a sense of participation." Chu Jun replied with a smile, staring at those happy people as well: "Whether you are a talented player with extraordinary talent, or a handicapped party or a theoretical player, Practical faction, it doesn’t matter on paper or with strong hands-on ability. Even people with congenital physical defects can gain different happiness in the game.”

"This is a joy that has no threshold for participation."

Dai Xiaoshi nodded vigorously, agreeing with Chu Jun's words very much.

Holding the competition card in hand, Chu Jun led Dai Xiaoshi through the crowded exhibition hall on the first floor.

After going up to the second floor, it became much quieter here.

On the second floor, there are quite a few PC areas, mobile terminal areas and console areas for players to play and experience various types of games.

And the quality of these players is also very good, all wearing headphones or earplugs, immersing themselves in their game world wholeheartedly.

This goes up to several floors.

Wallpapers, models, figures, cosplay of game characters that can be seen everywhere
Let Dai Xiaoshi be attracted by this strong and good game atmosphere.

"This game experience hall is really well done." She sighed softly.

"No matter how well it is done, it is not our country's thing. Next year's Asian competition will be held in China." Chu Jun looked back and said.

After visiting along the way, Chu Jun and Dai Xiaoshi also tried to experience games from other countries.

Among them, there are indeed some fine works that exist in this world.

Chu Jun quite likes one of the bubble-blowing puzzle games.

Similar to Zuma in terms of setting.

But it also boldly incorporates new tower defense elements.

It is a game that can bring you relaxation and pleasure.

Not long after, the two circled around and came to the top floor.

This is the venue for the Asia Tournament.

After the staff guarding the door checked the cards of Mr. Chu and Mr. Chu, he slightly bowed and invited them in.

In front of the eyes is a circular stepped stage, the lights are slightly dim, and the introductions of the contestants from various Asian countries are being played on the big screen in a loop.

The game has not yet started, and many people have already gathered here.

Under the guidance of the staff, Chu Jun came to the backstage.

The top game designers in almost all of Asia are gathered here.

Many people exchanged business cards or exchanged business cards in a friendly and enthusiastic manner.

Some designers recognized Chu Jun at a glance, shook their heads and walked towards him with a smile.

"Oh! Isn't this a miracle in the history of Chinese games, Mr. Chu?" A bronze-skinned man with a beard came over.

Before he got close, Chu Jun could smell the curry smell on his body.

"Hi, I'm Dalit, a game designer, from India." The visitor generously extended his hand to Chu Jun, and his English also tinged with curry: "To be honest, I recently I am imitating your work "Dyson Ball Project" and want to try to make a new game. I really like this kind of construction game."

"Then how is the progress now?" Chu Jun asked with a smile after passing Dai Xiaoshi's translation.

"To be honest, it's almost finished. I decided to name it "Power Train". My idea is to allow players to set up or build a train by themselves. It can be an open top or a sleeper. Of course, the train with people is the most popular. .They can even be stacked on top of each other.”

"..."

Chu Jun responded with a polite smile.

Although judging from the description, he is not very interested in this game.

But according to the national conditions of India, maybe their citizens will like it.

"Mr. Chu Jun?" Another whisper sounded beside his ears.

Chu Jun turned his head and found that it was a man in a white robe and a pink turban on his head.

The very distinctive clothing made Chu Jun judge that he was probably from the Middle East.

After a little chat.

as predicted.

The man is from Saudi Arabia.

And what surprised Chu Jun a little.

This is a new game designer who only stepped into the game industry last year. Because he was inspired by Chu Jun's game, he realized for the first time that the game can be so fun, so he decided to devote himself to the game industry and create more Much better games.

Chu Jun remembers that in the Middle East in his previous life, there was hardly any decent game industry.

Even if there is, it is basically based on games introduced from the outside world.

How could this life qualify for the competition?
Soon Chu Jun learned that this Saudi man bought a multinational game company established in his country.

After becoming the spokesperson of the company, he successfully got the quota and squeezed into this Asian Tournament.

Mr. Chu had some impressions of that multinational company, as if it was a well-known island country game company on Blue Star.

How could he be so generous that he was willing to sell the game company?
Soon, the old man grinned again showing his big gold teeth and gave Chu Jun an answer.

"The oil in the ground in my backyard does not allow him to make other choices."

Chu Jun: "..."

"But Mr. Chu Jun, don't worry, if you have the idea of ​​setting up Junyue Game Branch in Saudi Arabia, I will definitely welcome you warmly! I will overcome all difficulties for you! You are my most admired idol!"

Saying goodbye to the overly enthusiastic second-generation Saudi rich, new friends came to greet me.

Chu Jun found out.

Unknowingly, he has gained a certain reputation in the entire Asian game circle.

Although the game culture blockade policies of various countries, the citizens may not be able to understand Junyue Company.

But for fellow game designers, none of this is a problem.

Many of the participating designers have indicated that they are fans of Chujun, and they have been deeply inspired by Junyue games in the past year or so.

I have benefited a lot, so I have to come up and take a photo together.

Everyone else forgets.

Chu Jun always felt that there was an island girl with super big breasts just now, just to rub his tofu.

With a good conscience, she squeezed out the slight dent in the suit she had just ironed.

Apart from the friendly designers, Chu Jun also saw a lot of hostile looks.

Obviously, there are also designers who regard themselves as competitors in this Asia Tournament.

Whether it is friendly or hostile, Mr. Chu welcomes with his hands up.

Any industry, if it is not competitive, is not far from the decline of the industry.

The game industry on Blue Star has just started, including Europe and the United States where games are most popular.

Many types of games have only slowly developed in the past two years.

It will take everyone's efforts to restore the game industry to the prosperity of the earth, or even worse.

Soon.

Accompanied by the staff to inform the designers to prepare.

A lot of spectators have started pouring in before the stage on the top floor.

The host came on stage with a strange tongue roll, and after the opening remarks that Mr. Chu didn't understand anyway.

There was warm applause from the audience.

Subsequently, the Korean girl group began to perform on stage.

The fair and graceful figure shines brightly on the stage, instantly igniting the atmosphere off the stage.

After singing and dancing.

The host began to introduce the judges of this competition in turn.

There are also two Huaxia judges among them. Chu Jun remembers that they are senior game designers in the turn-based period. Twenty years later, they also have considerable weight in the Huaxia game industry.

"The Asia Tournament is different. The judges here are all very important." Sitting in the backstage, Dai Xiaoshi stared at the big screen, and couldn't help sighing at the introduction screen from the director.

After introducing the judges.

The host began to announce the rules of the competition again.

The rules were temporarily changed to ensure tricky sticks.

Even though she had already familiarized herself with the various rules in advance, Dai Xiaoshi still pricked up her ears with a high degree of concentration, and helped Chu Jun accurately translate the whole process, so as not to miss any unnoticed details.

"...The scoring standard for this competition adopts three scoring methods, of which the judges' scoring accounts for 60%, the live audience's scoring accounts for 30%, and in the simultaneous live broadcast rooms of various countries, the remote audience's scoring accounts for 10%."

This rule has not changed and the previous standard has been followed.

The number of viewers watching the live broadcast is the largest, but due to the remote online, there is too much room for maneuvering.

Therefore, only a small part of the scoring base is occupied.

It is to allow various players who watch remotely to have a sense of participation without disturbing the scoring standards of the game.

The most important thing is the scoring of the 40 judges on the judging panel.

"...We respect every detail of every designer. In order to ensure that more details in the game are displayed, this Asian Game Production Competition will adopt a competition method in which 20 staff members play simultaneously. All competitions The screens will be presented in the director’s storyboard. We will choose to change the director’s storyboard according to the timing, and strive to make each game perfectly presented in front of the audience.”

This mechanic has been slightly altered.

In the past, the game designer personally went on stage to show the game content.

After showing the most essential part as much as possible, the judges can score.

However, due to the enrichment of stand-alone games from the previous turn-based to now there are almost more than 10 different types.

There are also subtle changes to some game choices.

And the sidelines or easter eggs implied in the game.

Rely on the personal display of the game designer alone.

Due to time constraints, it is difficult to present everything in the game without reservation.

Until then.

A very subtle situation arises.

Game designers try to make the game flow shorter.

Or do your best to only do one of the plots well, and finish the work sloppy and perfunctory in other places.

This will greatly undermine the fairness of the game.

Although the judges from the islands and South Korea have never been so clean in the past years of the Asian Tournament.

But this uncleanness is only relatively speaking, and a little bit of trickery is done in some very small details.

Strive for rematch or re-evaluation, or add a few tenths of this seemingly weak score.

After all, both South Korea and the island country know it well.

If it is not relatively fair, then all countries will not participate at all, and it will be over if the judges from Korea and Island are torn apart.

Therefore, no matter who is the host of the Korean and Island countries, they dare not play around casually, and still abide by the basic rules of fairness.

20 staff tried the game synchronously.

It can show different branches, options, easter eggs, hidden plots and other contents of a game to a great extent.

"...Finally, I would like to congratulate the 41 participating teams or individual designers in advance for achieving good results! We are also looking forward to better and more interesting game presentations!"

"So……"

"No.13 Asian Game Contest, the game has officially started!"
