Lin Mo applauded because he felt that what Feng Yi on the stage said was indeed good.

The other people in the audience didn't applaud because they were angry and embarrassed.

No matter how politely you put it, it will still be somewhat offensive.

Just say it clearly.

You guys need to stand up straight and stop picking up leftovers behind the naughty cat.

But the world is just a huge makeshift team, and this is true for every industry.

The gaming industry is no exception.

It is normal for some people to get angry and embarrassed.

Lin Mo's applause alone was particularly harsh in the conference hall.

Some people turned around and glared in dissatisfaction, and found that the person wearing a mask looked familiar, but they did not recognize who it was.

Then he focused his attention again on Feng Yi above.

The applause ends.

Feng Yi on the stage was about to continue speaking when someone in the audience spoke first.

"As far as I know, the theme of Keyou's next game is related to Journey to the West. Are you here to advertise?"

Feng Yi did not deny it, and nodded calmly, "Yes."

Then another person spoke rudely.

"I support you, so when are you going to pay back the money for the Naughty Cat Support Program? You owe Naughty Cat money, but you're also thinking about stealing his girlfriend, right?"

This is no longer an innuendo, it is an open mockery.

This is what the people who are speaking on the stage are like, and we who are mocking them have to consider more.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the audience laughed in response.

Lin Mo was a little surprised.

Naughty Cat has a support plan to provide financial and technical support to many small studios with potential.

Some of them did produce results, with the works successfully launched online and achieving decent results.

But there are also many that fail in the womb, and some of them are investment scams.

I took out my cell phone and searched for Feng Yi.

You wouldn’t know unless you searched, and after searching I actually got some impression of it.

Before joining the current company Keyou, he made an auto chess game called "Red Tide of War" and a card game called "Three Kingdoms: Thousand Generals".

The latter has a dark style and a bold reinterpretation of the Three Kingdoms generals, which is eye-catching.

It’s just that both games were poorly managed and went bankrupt.

So, is this Keyou a new company started from scratch?
Lin Mo nodded in understanding.

Look at the stage again.

It can be seen that Feng Yi is a person who has sufficient confidence in himself.

Facing the provocation from the audience, he responded with reason and evidence, sentence by sentence.

But he has good eloquence and can grasp the key points without being outdone.

This led to more and more people being dissatisfied, and the situation seemed a little out of control.

You could even hear someone mumbling in a not-so-loud voice not far away.

"Tsk, there's no work, but there's a lot to do."

Zhou Yun asked in confusion: "Boss Lin, if someone other than Naughty Cat really makes a good quality domestic 3A game, wouldn't that be a good thing?"

Lin Mo chuckled and said, "Look at the people below. The one who was yelling fiercely just now is currently trying to attract investment with a 10-word custom article. He wants to launch a second game to keep up with the booming market after Genshin Impact and Collapse.

The guy in the first row is working on a pay-to-win online game and just received Series A funding. The guy who is speaking now is working on an SLG mobile game and is currently negotiating with Alibaba. The guy wearing glasses is working on a RPG game and is funded by Penguin. Do you understand?"

Zhou Yun was silent for a few seconds and nodded.

In the current market, investors are more optimistic about mobile games and pay-to-win online games.

Because of making money.

The rise of Naughty Cat once triggered a wave of investment in 3A quality games.

But soon everything calmed down.

Many investors discovered that it was not that a new trend had arrived, but that Naughty Cat was too powerful.

If one person succeeds, it may not necessarily bring prosperity to everyone else.

Naughty Cat never accepts external investment.

If a domestically produced 3A game with Chinese characteristics were to become a huge success at this time, how many of these people here would lose their jobs?

At the beginning, the naughty cat Qianglong suppressed the local snake and no one could do anything about it.

But Feng Yi, the troublemaker, is not the second Lin Mo.

Zhou Yun asked in confusion: "Hasn't he thought of this? Isn't it making enemies for himself if he says this now?"

Lin Mo looked at Feng Yi on the stage and said faintly, "Maybe, he is also an idealist. He wants to take a step forward on his own that no one has taken before."

Zhou Yun shut up immediately.

He would not dare to comment on the subject of idealists.

The big boss has acknowledged this since the day he founded Naughty Cat.

You can offend no one but the boss, right?

A speech has completely changed its flavor.

“This is a place to exchange experiences and share experiences, not a place to use crooked methods to attract investment when your project can’t attract investment or recruit people! Make a playable demo first, then say those empty words to chat with people.”

"What bad luck! I thought he had some great ideas, but it turned out to be a scam to solicit investment."

“The process of inviting speakers by the Tourism Commission should be improved.”

“The combined revenue of our two most proud titles is less than the three-month revenue of our company’s mobile games.”

Faced with all kinds of ridicule, Feng Yi on the stage had a look of disappointment on his face.

"Well, forget it. I can't go on."

No wonder the industry has become like this.

Isn’t it good to let a hundred flowers bloom?
Would you be satisfied with just walking with one leg missing?

Just as I closed the notebook on the table, I heard a voice coming from the back of the conference room.

"Your speaking time isn't over yet, would you mind speaking a little longer?"

Ok?
Feng Yi looked up in that direction with some surprise.

There were two people sitting in an inconspicuous position.

The one on the left takes off his mask and looks here.

He nodded with an encouraging smile, then extended his hand and made a "please" gesture.

Lin, Teacher Lin Mo?

Feng Yi's eyes widened, and his heart was in turmoil.

I am not wrong, right.
No, it's him.

Feng Yi had been calm throughout the whole game, but at this moment he couldn't help but look a little embarrassed.

After all, he was the former financial sponsor.

Also, the project was messed up, causing Naughty Cat to lose money.

The audience present was even more confused.

Everyone looked back as if they had seen a ghost.

No one took the speech seriously, and many people planned to leave and listen to speeches in other halls that they were interested in and found useful.

No matter how they were attracted, many people looked embarrassed.

The ugly behavior just now was seen clearly.

There is a question in everyone's mind.

How was this giant Buddha attracted here?
If other people were to listen to it, they would think that this person is mentally ill for wanting to listen to the nonsense of an unsuccessful person.

But if it's Lin Mo.
No matter how much the people in the conference hall disliked Feng Yi on the stage, they stopped mocking him.

One by one they quieted down.

Seeing this, Feng Yi cast a grateful look at Lin Mo and started today's content. However, the part where everyone came to find faults took up too much time, and in the end, many contents were not finished.

".It's about time, let's stop here."

Lin Mo was still the first to applaud, and many people in the venue followed suit reluctantly.

Zhou Yun also clapped his hands and asked in a low voice, "Boss Lin, aren't you angry about what this guy said before?"

"Why are you angry?" Lin Mo asked back, "Isn't that the truth? The industry will only get better if there are game developers like this. A single flower does not make spring, only a hundred flowers blooming together make spring."

Feng Yi on the stage left in a hurry.

Lin Mo also stood up and walked out.

"Let's go. If nothing unexpected happens, we can still make a deal later."

The first one to leave the venue.

As expected, Feng Yi was already waiting there.

"Teacher Lin Mo, thank you for helping me out. If it weren't for you, I would have made a fool of myself."

Lin Mo shook his head and said it was okay, and said, "Can we chat? What is the theme of Keyou's new project?"

Feng Yi nodded and said, "Based on Journey to the West, a man of destiny in the Dharma Ending Age goes out to explore the truth of the legends of the past."

Lin Mo nodded and said, "If your project encounters financing difficulties, you can come to Naughty Cat."

As soon as these words came out, Feng Yi could see a hint of embarrassment on his face.

"Good, good."

"Do you have a name?"

"The project has not yet been officially named, only a research and development code name."

"From your description, I have a good name. You can consider it."

"Please tell me, I'll write it down."

“Black Myth: Wukong.”

Feng Yi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, frowned slightly, and muttered to himself, trying to figure out the name of this game.

He also worried about the name of the game.

But either it is too close to Journey to the West and fails to reflect the characteristics of the game.

Either too much emphasis is placed on the characteristics of the Dharma Ending Age, and the characteristics derived from Journey to the West cannot be expressed.

Just when he was worrying about how to incorporate these two selling points into a game, he heard a name that was almost perfect for him.

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. He nodded repeatedly and said excitedly, "Teacher Lin Mo, thank you so much. Can I get your authorization? This name is very suitable for this project."

Lin Mo shook his head and said, "You can use it without authorization. Naughty Cat has not registered any related trademarks. Okay, you go ahead. I'm going to listen to other speeches."

As he spoke, he took Zhou Yun and walked towards the distance.

in the afternoon.

The first day is prime time for the game exchange conference.

The largest venue was packed.

Many people thought they had arrived early, but ended up seeing rows of people standing in the back row, which made them feel annoyed.

The speech hadn't started yet, and many people were chatting in groups of three or five.

"Teacher Lin Mo's speech today is about the future prospects of the gaming industry. What does this mean?"

“Maybe you should talk about the application of VR technology in the field of gaming?”

“But it turns out that VR is still a pseudo-trend in the gaming field. What do you think about this?”

"I heard that there is a technological breakthrough that may bring about major changes, and the gaming industry will be the first to take advantage of it."

"Is this true? What kind of technology can be called a major revolution?"

As he was speaking, the time was up.

Lin Mo walked onto the stage, and everyone who was talking stopped chatting immediately.

Some people even took out their notebooks, intending to write down some key words in case they forget.

Among them was Feng Yi.

At this time, he was sitting in the first row. He didn't even have lunch and came here early to grab a seat.

Ready, set.

"Hello everyone, I am Lin Mo. I am very happy that you can come here to learn and exchange ideas. I also thank the Game Commission for inviting you. Without further ado, let's get into our topic today, "Future Outlook of the Game Industry." First, let's take a brief look back at history.

With the discovery and application of cathode rays, imaging technology developed. In 1947, two physicists, Goldsmith and Lehman, invented a cathode ray tube entertainment device, which used a CRT display and controlled the screen light to hit the aircraft through an oscillator switch.

As computer technology matured, William Higginbotham's Tennis for Two became the first game to run on a computer.

The maturity of storage technology made the PDP-1 of "Space Wars" the world's first game cartridge.

The emergence of Ping Pong represented the official entry of electronic games into the commercial field. From then on, the concept of the game industry was finally born, which also opened the golden age of the game industry and indirectly gave birth to the game console, a device designed specifically for entertainment. "

Lin Mo used ten minutes to explain the impact of technological progress on the gaming industry in a simple and straightforward way.

The audience in the audience also noticed it.

This is related to the big news to be announced later.

However, there are still many people who are very confused.

I haven't heard any news?

We talked from the last century to this century.

"So, whether it is Genting VR1 or somatosensory, these devices are only icing on the cake for the gaming industry, and are far from being revolutionary." Lin Mo glanced at the countless pairs of eyes in the audience, "But now, with the maturity of a revolutionary technology, electronic games are about to enter a new era."

As he spoke, the PPT on the big screen switched to the next page.

Above is a very high-tech "lounger chair" that is full of technology.

The name of the device is called Genting Future Gaming Cabin.

"As neural connection technology matures, immersive will no longer be an adjective, the boundary between reality and virtuality will become more blurred, and living in the virtual world will no longer be empty talk. Colleagues, embrace the future."

The audience gasped in unison.

There's no need to explain it too clearly, everyone has guessed what kind of outrageous thing this is.

Neural connection technology, this thing was declared mature many years ago.

It’s not like no one has ever thought about what would happen if this thing were used as a gaming device.

But it’s just a thought.

Thousands of years after the invention of gunpowder, it was only used to set off firecrackers.

It's only been two years, and you tell me it has been completed and can be used commercially?

Are you kidding me?
Apparently, there were many people who thought so.

Under such a huge impact, someone blurted out: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Lin Mo was not angry, because the next thing played on the big screen was the video of his last test of the game cabin.

The scene was completely silent, with everyone staring at the screen, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

Is it fake?
Many people want to convince themselves that this is false.

But what’s the point of doing this?

Naughty Cat is not a listed company that needs to raise its stock price in this way, and it announced this matter at the game exchange conference held by the Game Commission.

Combined with the unreasonable area.

This can't be true?!

The video on the big screen finished in just a few minutes.

The next person to come on stage is Zhou Yun, who will explain the various parameters of the game cabin in detail.

"Okay, now it's time for the question and answer session. The person in the first row, please."

"Excuse me, how much does a commercial version of such a game cabin cost?"

"Please wait for this one. The one in the third row from the bottom, please."

"I want to ask. Does this game cabin really have the same athletic ability as in reality and all five senses as you said?"

Zhou Yun nodded naturally and said, "Of course it's true. Facts speak louder than words, so from tomorrow until the end of the game exchange conference, we will put 20 game cabins here for everyone to try out. Naughty Cat's new game "Escape", I look forward to your appreciation. But one thing to note is that patients with hypertension and heart disease are strictly prohibited from logging into the game!"
