In January 2008, in this relatively cold season, a weekly game development course was being held in a lecture hall about five kilometers away from the Youxing Electronic Entertainment Building.
This course is led by Youxing Electronic Entertainment. Every week, the main creative developers of Youxing Electronic Entertainment participate in game development courses.
Occasionally, well-known producers from other companies will give lectures in the course. Of course, more and more game practitioners come here to listen to the class, including some well-known game producers from Japan and other countries.
people.
Because this course is really full of useful information, whenever you feel confused in game development, you can always open up new horizons by coming here.
At the same time, it has also become a place for many game practitioners to communicate, and it is also a good opportunity to expand contacts in the industry.
If you have the idea of changing jobs, being able to stand out in this lecture is the best choice.
Today, Oda Chong has graduated and successfully entered a game production company.
Originally, his dream was to join Yuxing Electronic Entertainment one day, but now there are so many people who want to join Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. Unless it is a school recruitment that responds to the policy, it is already very difficult to enter Yuxing Electronic Entertainment without any skills.
.
However, Oda Oki is now very satisfied with his job. He has been exposed to games since he was a child and can now participate in game production, which can be regarded as a dream come true.
It's just that the games he is involved in producing now can only be considered small projects, probably slightly larger in scale than the independent games developed by Aiko and the three of them.
Speaking of Aiko and the other three, Oda Chong still feels indescribable envy. He really envies the three of them for their success in game development, and he doesn't know when he will have such an opportunity.
While thinking about it, he entered the lecture hall and found a seat casually.
As soon as Tian Chong sat down, the person sitting next to him immediately turned around and said hello to Tian Chong: "Hey friend, you look very young. Have you just graduated?"
This man is about thirty years old, with a European and American appearance, and has no special features.
However, the other party is quite fluent in Japanese. He has obviously made great efforts to learn this language. In this course, Japanese is a must for everyone present. Nowadays, there is even a saying that says: If you want to become a top game producer,
Learning Japanese is the first step.
Because only by learning Japanese can you directly participate in this game development course lecture, and you can also ask questions to the lecturer face-to-face and solve your own doubts, which is very helpful to game development, and you can wait to watch the recorded subtitles on the Internet.
There will still be some sense of distance, and the learning experience will be completely different.
In particular, the video game industry is still a talent-demanding industry, so attending classes on-site is even more important.
Hearing the other party's initiative to say hello, Tian Chong nodded and responded: "Well, I just graduated a year or two ago, and now I am working in a game company."
"My name is Meyer. I have just joined the game development industry. It is also my first time to participate in this lecture course. I hope we can communicate more in the future." Meyer took the initiative to extend his hand.
Tian Chong also politely extended his hand to shake the other person's hand, then introduced himself and said: "Tian Chong, nice to meet you."
"By the way, do you have any notes from previous courses? I want to study more."
"Yes, I'll give it to you."
Tian Chong turned around and started digging around in the backpack he carried with him.
Meyer, on the other hand, continued chatting with Tian Chong, who had nothing to do with each other: "Speaking of which, Tian Chong, how many times have you listened to this course?"
"I have been listening to it for several years, but my understanding is a bit poor. Many people can get inspiration after listening to it, and then develop fun and interesting games, but I have never understood the key points of game development. If game development can also
It would be nice if there was a standard answer like a mathematical formula."
After Tian Chong finished speaking, he sighed and handed the notebook he took out to the other party: "Here, here you go."
"Ah, thank you very much!" Meyer happily took the note and looked through it, as if he had seen a treasure, but he still did not forget to continue talking to Tian Chong.
"You've been taking courses for several years, that's really amazing."
Tian Chong shook his head: "After listening to it for several years, there is still no obvious progress."
At this point, he thought of those three girls again. He and Aiko were once childhood sweethearts, but now the distance between them is getting bigger and bigger.
It's not that he has any admiration for Aizi, maybe he once did, but now Tian Chong is more envious of Aizi's achievements, but it's a pity that his talent is really not as good as his.
My grades have been very poor since I was a child, not only because I didn’t study seriously, but also because my understanding was really not that good.
Meyer was very calm, patting Tian Chong on the shoulder and comforting him: "Don't be discouraged, hard work will always pay off."
Then he asked: "You have participated in lectures for so many years, so you must have listened to many teachers' lectures, right? Which teacher do you think gives the best lectures? Who inspires you the most?"
"Of course it's the god of games, Bamboo Yousei!" Tian Chong replied almost without thinking, "This is the No. 1 player in the game industry, the god of all game practitioners, and his lectures are definitely the best."
"Oh, I also know Zhu Youxing. Is he that powerful? I always thought he was just the boss of a game company."
Tian Chong shook his head and said: "How could he be just the boss of a game company? Without him, the game industry would never be so prosperous. It can even be said that he represents the game industry."
When Tian Chong said this, his eyes flashed with admiration, as if he was worshiping a god.
In the past, Tian Chong had heard that some game practitioners even worshiped the portrait of Bamboo Youxing as a ranking sacrifice to the gods, hoping to gain inspiration for game development.
After hearing this, Meyer also started to yearn for it: "Wow, if I can attend the lecture given by the God of Games, is it possible for me to soar into the sky?"
Tian Chong knew that the other party had just started working in the industry and obviously did not know much about this lecture hall, so he said such words. He said in a slightly joking and mocking tone: "If Teacher Zhu Youxing really lectures, then you may indeed
Soaring into the sky, of course, is only possible. But the last time Mr. Zhuyou gave a lecture was three or four years ago. How big a chance do you think you have of meeting Mr. Zhuyousing?"
"Ah? So few." Meyer was a little disappointed.
"He is also very busy. As far as I know, he is responsible for the development of at least four top games, so it is impossible for him to..."
While Tian Chong and Meyer were talking, the time had already arrived for the formal lecture at nine o'clock in the morning, and today's lecturer also came to the podium.
When the teacher appeared, Tian Chong's words suddenly stopped.
