Reboot the age of gaming

Chapter 397 Completion of material collection
Many people were waiting for Zhong Ming's response. As soon as this Weibo post was posted, the melon eaters immediately forwarded it!
"Strong face! The attendance data is posted!"

"You also said that Weiguang Interactive Entertainment is working overtime to make games? Hehe, your own work efficiency is low, so don't think of others as you think!"

"Zhong Ming is straightforward enough. Is it okay to just laugh out loud?"

"I understand. All the bosses, including those Internet technology bosses and Peng Liang, are nothing more than speaking for the capitalists. They clearly know that this is a kind of oppression, but they continue to beautify the 996 working system. , I hope to extract more profits from this!"

"Anyway, thanks for Zhong Ming's voice, he is indeed a person who is not dominated by capital!"

On the Internet, a large number of onlookers immediately supported Zhong Ming, and by the way, severely trampled on those who supported 996.

Only 996 is struggle?

Only 996 can improve work output?

996 is a blessing?
Nonsense, pure fart!
Just look at Weiguang Interactive Entertainment. Zhong Ming has never squeezed employees, and never used poisonous chicken soup to brainwash employees, but everyone is working hard, and the efficiency is far higher than those mediocre game companies. The income is high and the mental state is high. Well, this is a normal employment relationship, and this is what a really good boss should do!

As for the other bosses who advocate the 996 working system, they are nothing more than changing the concept secretly. They are clearly squeezing the time of the employees, but they call it "struggle for themselves", and they don't even want to pay overtime pay. It is shameless!
All of a sudden, Zhong Ming's speech was reposted on Weibo and real Q&A, and even used as a weapon against 996 by those who rejected 996.

Moreover, to everyone's surprise, Zhong Ming's remarks not only provided strong support for those who opposed 996, but also served as a good advertisement for his company.

Before, everyone knew that Weiguang Interactive Entertainment is a game giant that has produced a large number of well-known and good games. Designers, artists and programmers in the industry have long been yearning for this.

But now, people who want to go to Weiguang Huyu have a new reason: there is no overtime here!
Of course, it’s not absolutely no overtime work, but most of the time you don’t need to work overtime. In rare cases, you will be paid enough overtime pay, and you have to apply to your superiors to allow overtime work!

And look at those other "sweatshops"?
During some interviews, they asked "can you accept longer working hours and greater work pressure" on the sidelines, which is actually implying 996;

Some said on the surface that "we have no hard and fast rules on overtime", but after joining the company, they found that no one left after work. Overtime work is actually an unspoken rule. They clearly said that overtime work is not mandatory, but they will still be interviewed when they leave work on time;
Even worse, internally claiming that Saturday is a normal day to work, not even counting as overtime, blatantly ignoring laws and regulations.

As the saying goes, it all depends on the peers!

The game industry has always been the hardest hit area for overtime work, because the game industry often has strong requirements for timeliness. A game will be released one month earlier or one month later, and the ending may be very different.Therefore, many game companies use this as an excuse to do everything possible to work overtime to catch up with the schedule, and basically do not pay overtime pay, which has become an unspoken rule.

However, Weiguang Interactive Entertainment is completely different from these sweatshops. Many people have asked people in the industry, especially the internal staff of Weiguang Interactive Entertainment, to verify, and the answer they got is indeed: there is no overtime here, just like Zhong Ming said!
All of a sudden, Weiguang Interactive Entertainment became a company that many people dreamed of joining, and it received a wave of excellent publicity invisibly. Many talented people who got multiple offers at the same time, even if the salary is low, will give priority to it. Choose Shimmer Interactive Entertainment.

On the other hand, those bosses who openly advocated 996, their companies were organized into a form by enthusiastic netizens: 996 Company Form.

Companies that say they don’t work overtime but actually work overtime by default, companies that are 996 or even 8107 all the year round, companies that squeeze their employees in different ways... All these companies are included in this 996 company list, and many job seekers When I joined the job, I was also used to taking this form and looking at it to see if the salary I got after changing jobs was worth my hard work.

Because Peng Liang of i-evaluation performed well in this battle and had a lot of hatred, so i-evaluation also got a C debut on this "996 company list", which made Peng Liang very angry.

It's like stealing chickens and losing money. Originally, he wanted to pour some poisonous chicken soup behind the big guy's ass, and get a little bit of benefits. By the way, he would give blood to his employees, but it turned out to be good now. Zhong Ming's fate, Peng Liang directly Falling into the vast ocean of the people's war, not only did not get any benefits, but it actually confirmed the problem of squeezing employees and inefficiency of our company!

"Zhong Ming, your uncle!!"

Peng Liang was so scolded by the online comments that he shut himself up on the spot, and had no choice but to turn off the comment function on Weibo.

……

A month later.

The team that went to collect materials from all over the world is back.

When I went to work the next day, people from the art group just entered the company, which shocked the others.

Fu Xing'an had just arrived at the company, and took a cup to drink a cup of coffee, but he was shocked when he saw Xiao Mu's appearance.

"Damn it! Didn't you go to play, why... You lost a lot of weight? Are you still black?"

Fu Xing'an was so startled that he almost spilled his coffee on the floor.

Xiao Mu is one of the employees who joined the Shimmer Studio earlier, he is a tall guy.During the period of working in Weiguang Studio, because the life is more comfortable and the food is better, there is a tendency to gain weight gradually. From the time I started the job to the present, I have gained about [-] catties.

As a result, after going out to play for a month, he lost a lot of weight and turned black. Fu Xing'an didn't dare to admit it.

Xiao Mu said with a bitter face: "What are you going to play? I've been helping to carry the equipment the whole time. When I'm not carrying the equipment to rest, I have to take pictures of the girls, which makes me tired... I'm running for this month. You said, if there is such a good thing in the future, you should go, I will never go again..."

Fu Xing'an smiled: "Your art team is going to collect materials, and I'm not qualified to go, I have to write a design draft."

"Anyway, I'll be a dog if I go back!" Xiao Mu drifted back to his seat.

Not long after, members of other data collection teams also came to work.

Jiang Wanna's condition is not bad, she doesn't seem to have changed from usual, and the girls in the art group don't seem to be too influential, but the boys, whether they are in the art group or the design group, feel that they are all vain .

Fu Xing'an thought about it, too, if he travels all over the world to collect materials for a month, of course the boy has to carry the equipment all the way, which is... a bit difficult.

Not to mention taking on the shooting task, just going out for a normal trip, traveling around the world within a month, which is quite tiring.

I don't know how the task of collecting materials was completed.

In the morning, Jiang Wanna called several core members of the data collection team, Zhong Ming, and Fu Xing'an, and they had a meeting together.

On the big screen, the materials of this time's gathering appeared, and Jiang Wanna began to introduce the results of this time's outing to everyone with great interest.

"This time, we have taken more than 30 photos and 37 hours of video, and conceived a lot of original sketches on the spot. At present, we have classified these materials for the time being, according to the previous design team. The rough terrain plan in the game..."

While explaining, Jiang Wanna opened some pictures and videos that she was quite satisfied with for everyone to see.

When the material collection team of the art group left before, the design team once released a rough terrain plan in the game, dividing the entire island in the game into several parts.

The game takes place on a small island, with deserts, wilderness, snow-capped mountains, and cities... According to these pre-determined styles, the material collection team went to various parts of the world to capture scenes, and then classified and stored the captured data.

"The scenery is so beautiful." Fu Xing'an said with emotion, "I regret not going there."

Xiao Mu said beside him: "If you really go, you won't think so... Do you know what it's like to walk in the desert with a tripod and a professional camera..."

The technology in this world is very advanced, the material of the tripod has become a lot lighter, and the size of the camera has also shrunk a lot, but as professional equipment, it must be much bulkier than a bracelet.

Photos and videos, though, are really well shot.

Many of the videos are shot with drones, from a high altitude, and the scenery of the entire area is unobstructed.

I browsed through it briefly, and found that there were indeed enough materials, and the data collection team was not in vain this month, and they completed the tasks assigned by Zhong Ming very well.

"However, there is a problem..." Jiang Wanna said, "I didn't go to all the historic buildings, and I only took a few cities for the materials. How can I make up for this? Do you just go to the Internet to find information?"

According to the original design document planning, in addition to these natural scenery, the game content in "Xtreme Speed" also has a large number of historic buildings.These historic buildings will be used as the surface and integrated into many urban scenes, thus making an obvious regional difference.

However, according to Zhong Ming's request, the material collection team did not consider this aspect at all.

Zhong Ming shook his head: "No, I'm ready."

He connected the bracelet to the screen, and opened the original painting of ancient architecture that he had prepared.

"The Leaning Tower of Pisa?"

"Notre Dame?"

"Isn't this the Temple of Heaven!"

"And the Taj Mahal!"

"The Arc de Triomphe!"

"Oh, all the details of the Great Wall?"

"The Opera House? Didn't most of the information be lost, leaving only a photo from a certain angle? This original painting even has the internal structure? Amazing!"

"Is this building a Water Rubik's Cube?"

"This is the Burj Khalifa? Fuck, doesn't it mean that there are no records left?"

"Awesome, where did you get it?"

One after another, the original paintings of ancient buildings appeared on the screen, and they were not linear drafts, they were all pornographic versions.

All the people in the art group had shocked expressions on their faces.

Outrageous!

Because there are many historical sites here, their information has long been completely lost, and those that have preserved some information are also incomplete.

Take the Maritime Opera House as an example. To Zhong Ming, it is a building of the previous generation and the same time, but to everyone in the parallel world, it is also a historic site, just like the Temple of Heaven and the Leaning Tower of Pisa.The opera house was damaged during the war, and many materials on the Internet were also lost. The only thing people can see now is a photo of the opera house.

This photo is a physical photo, which has been preserved due to some accidental factors. Without this photo, people can only rely on some text descriptions to make up for the appearance of the opera house.

However, this photo was taken at a specific angle, so even a professional architect can't guarantee the real structure of the opera house and can only speculate.

But now, Zhong Ming's structural drawing has drawn the complete structure of the entire opera house!
The same is true of the original paintings of other monuments, not only the appearance, but also the inner structure, all clearly presented in front of everyone.

These historic buildings include the architectural styles of various ages and civilizations in the East and the West. The details are substantial and the structure is complete. Under Zhong Ming's superb painting skills, it is even more clear than the photos taken from the materials!
Moreover, Zhong Ming also gave out many historical buildings whose information has been completely lost!

These information must not be found on the Internet, so how did Zhong Ming get it?
Did you design it yourself based on some incomplete text descriptions?
Or is it all in the brain?

It's hard to say.

"Okay, then... you can start working." Jiang Wanna said.

Others might be surprised, but to Jiang Wanna and a few veteran employees, this is just the basic operation of Zhong Ming.

Don't ask, it's genius to ask.

Obviously, these historic buildings will be a highlight of the game.This game not only has the existing beautiful scenery in the world, but also has various places of interest that cannot be seen in reality, just ask if you want to play!

Now, all the materials are complete. The art team has taken a lot of natural scenery and modern city scenery. Zhong Ming also provided enough historical buildings here. The next job is to convert all these into the art materials in the game. , and then complete the entire island in the game according to the plan.

After the meeting was over, Jiang Wanna called everyone in the art team over and assigned some work tasks. For the next period of time, the work of the art team was to rush out all these architectural models, and then work with the design team to use the program editor Do the island well.

On the other side, various vehicles and in-game system gameplay are also under development.

As the first game of driving simulator, "Extreme Speed" will definitely give all players a big surprise.
