Build a game empire from scratch

Lin You wavered in his heart for a while, and decided to use past experience to deal with this matter, that is:

Undecided——

Just pretend it didn't happen.

Let's talk next month.

Maybe next month, things will be resolved naturally.

He put this matter behind him without any pressure, and continued the development of Chang'an with Xiaomeng, a child laborer.

At the same time, the players were stunned to see that the two movies League of Assassins and John Wick have really started promoting!

Yunmeng didn't spend too much money on online promotion. In the past, Yunmeng didn't do any of the popular celebrity interviews, movie sideshows, self-media promotion of movies, etc., etc.

The reason is simple: Strictly speaking, these two films are of the same nature as all-CG films.

Of course, this is the technology of the next era, and it may be called full virtual reality movie.

In this movie, the actors are all NPCs that already exist in the game, and interviewing them, isn't that adding more work to yourself?

As for the movie extras...the technical background extras, there are no gimmicks either.

Finally, online media promotion.

This... With Yunmeng's current influence on the Internet, there is really no need for that.

It's better to save the money and exchange it for ticket subsidies to subsidize movie fans.

And Shen Ping also felt that there was absolutely no need to spend this part of the money, and after the offline arrangement was completed, it was completely free to prostitute.

This prediction soon came true.

Early this morning, players passing by the movie theater at work found that the large posters of League of Assassins and John Wick appeared prominently outside the movie theater.

Those characters they are all too familiar with in the virtual world are now printed on posters like real big stars in reality, and they seem to have no sense of disobedience.

This sudden surprise made them couldn't help but take out their mobile phones, they took a series of snaps, and then quickly posted it on the Internet to share this unexpected good news with everyone.

When netizens saw it, they didn't believe it at first, thinking that it was done after watching Metropolis News.

They opened the booking software with a mentality of seeking proof, looking for movies that will be released on December 23.

In the end, I really saw League of Assassins!

Turn back to December 24, and John Wick is also on the list!

Change to another theater, and these two movies are also there!

Now it's completely confirmed, Yunmeng is really going to show Assassin's League and John Wick in real movie theaters.

The biggest reaction to this was not the players, but the major movie media.

[Virtual reality movie] is similar to [CG movie] in nature, but the effect is completely different.

It can really completely get rid of the dependence on real movie stars, and even many behind-the-scenes workers can be omitted.

In this case, the production costs of these two films must be astonishingly low.

In the short term, the impact on the film and television industry will not be too strong, because the cost of these two films is low, because those costs have been invested in the production of the game, and the film is just a peripheral product.

If you want to make a new movie from scratch, the production of scenes, characters, and special effects will also cost a lot of money.

But as time goes by, Yunmeng's database becomes richer and richer, and this cost will inevitably continue to decrease.

Perhaps in the future, the most cost-effective film production method will be produced in the virtual world?

——Of course, the premise is that Yunmeng is willing to provide this authority to the producer.

Nie Guangyao, a senior reporter of Film Weekly, forwarded the news immediately and made a long comment——

With Yunmeng's astonishing development speed, if Lin You intends to subvert the current film production model, it is very likely that within half a year, the film and television industry will usher in an earth-shaking change.

Workers behind the scenes of the film don't need to worry. Your experience is irreplaceable. Even in the virtual world, you can continue to play a role. Even with advanced technical support, your work may be easier.

Actors with superb acting skills also don't need to worry. I believe that the cost of producing sophisticated, layered, and in-depth performances for virtual characters may be higher and more labor-intensive than finding actors.

However, if you don't need too complicated acting skills, and you only need to take on the role of a handsome man and a beautiful woman, then the virtual character should not be difficult to do.

No matter how handsome and beautiful an actor is, can he look better than an artificially created virtual character?

So young actors, if you want to develop in this industry for a long time and not be replaced by virtual characters, then studying acting skills may be the only way out.

Nie Guangyao's lengthy comment obviously contains a lot of subjective consciousness, the main purpose is to persuade young actors in the industry to improve their acting skills.

But his prediction is indeed not unreasonable.

A ready-made evidence is that it is not the peripheral movie of the game, but the secondary movie with a lot of original content-The Wicks, which is already in the final stage.

The production team of this movie is all players.

The current direct cost of input is: 0.

All participating players have no wages and are obliged to participate and generate electricity for love.

The shooting tool comes with the system.

Venues and props, 80% depend on grabbing.

Of course, in their own words, everything will be returned when they are used up, so it is obviously a borrow.

Compared with Assassin's League and John Wick, two films produced by Yunmeng, when The Wicks is released, it will really subvert the concept of the film and television industry!

It's just a pity that The Wicks is unlikely to be released in reality.

Because its production team is mobile, and various copyright relations are also messy-only one item of background music, there are 8 composers involved before and after.

If there is no charge for the whole process, then it is easy to say, everyone generates electricity for love.

But if it is going to be released in reality, and it is really commercialized, then many things will have to be discussed.

So this movie will probably only be shown in the virtual world.

Even so, as long as the quality of this film passes the test and it is used as a model, the film and television industry will definitely realize the amazing potential of [virtual world] in film production.

But at that time, the first to bear the blow will not be the actors and celebrities, but most likely the major film and television cities...

...

The discussion about virtual reality movies lasted all day.

In the end, many practitioners in the film and television industry barely reached a consensus: wait.

Wait for the release of League of Assassins to see if the film made by the technicians adjusting the virtual characters can really achieve the effect of a live-action film.

They are still reluctant to believe that virtual characters can express the high complexity of movie characters.

When they were discussing, the players had already shifted their eyes, what should they do.

After all, players don't care too much about the impact on the film and television industry. They just took a few glances and confirmed that this matter will not affect their future movie watching, and it may even be beneficial, so they don't care much.

They have other things to do--

In Hunter: Call of the Wild, some players met other hunters in their personal world!

Of course, this is just speculation at the moment, as there are no direct sightings.

Several players said convincingly that they saw traces of other hunters:

The prey that was frightened away inexplicably, the shrubs that shook suddenly when there was no wind, the sound of branches being trampled and broken not far away, and even the prey that just died!

If only one or two people say it, then it may be a delusion, an accident, a liar or something.

But a lot of people say that, and that's another story!

Afterwards, a series of videos were uploaded, and everyone saw strange footprints by the lake, skeletons left over from being eaten by people by the fire, huge wounds on the moose caused by cold weapons, and brown bears lying in a pool of blood dying...

More and more evidence soon made the players realize: the mysterious hunter who caused the serial murders in the hunting ground appeared again!

But what annoys everyone is: only the traces left by the murderer can be seen, but not the murderer himself.

Even after discovering these clues, they immediately brought friends over and searched with a net, but they still couldn't find the murderer.

In the end, everyone had no choice but to accept the reality: these were just a prelude, and no one would be able to find the murderer until the day the event started.

Just like on the side of Dinosaur Island, the mobile drilling platform is still drilling down the hole day and night.

But nothing happened except that the frequency and intensity of earthquakes increased over time.

So players, like film and television practitioners, fell into waiting together, waiting for the special moment on December 23 to come.

Wait until Sunday night.
