The game is only half finished, and the entire internet is begging for an update!

After Tang Yu finished speaking, the conference room was quiet for a while.

Many game-related topics have been mentioned earlier.

But Tang Yu's idea was clearly different from everyone else's.

There is no traditional leveling up or monster-fighting, and there is no clearly defined final boss.

What players are truly fighting against is the countless intertwined causes and effects over thirty years!

Is this some kind of project proposal that a down-on-his-luck assistant director who can't make it in the film industry could come up with?!

No wonder he chose her!

"Slap... slap... slap."

Jiang Bo immediately led the applause.

"Wonderful."

"Absolutely fantastic"

"This is not only a good game, it's also a superb movie."

The others in the conference room were stunned for a moment, then quickly joined in the applause. Tang Yu sat there, looking somewhat bewildered.

He got more and more engrossed in his speech, completely bringing out that movie idea he'd always had but never had a chance to realize. After he finished, he actually started to regret it. After all, it sounded really cool, but if he were to turn it into a game, the different timelines, different city states, and different characters' fates would take up an unknown amount of development time.

As it turned out, Jiang Bo didn't even ask about the cost first.

The first thing that came to his mind was his expectations!

This game is perfect for building anticipation.

The player first travels back to 2056 and finds the world destroyed. They're filled with anticipation, wondering if they can save it by altering the past. But after all the trouble, when they open their eyes again, the world has indeed changed, but it continues to exist in a different form. Can the player resist the urge to travel back in time?

I definitely can't resist!

Not to mention, this game doesn't even have a single fixed route.

Every choice you make gives you a completely new timeline!

The more Jiang Bo thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

Great game, this is definitely a great game!

"I think this plan is feasible."

Jiang Bo's words made Tang Yu subconsciously raise his head.

"Is it really true, President Jiang!"

"certainly!"

"Your idea is already quite comprehensive."

"The core gameplay is there, and the immersive experience of virtual games is also very suitable for this theme. Every time players return from 2026 to 2056, they can see the new world they have created with their own eyes. It would be a waste to do this on a computer."

Ma Shangfei and Zhou Guangqi exchanged a glance.

That's for sure. Hearing what President Jiang said, they knew this was definitely a big job.

And it's even more troublesome than World's End: Beyond the Dust.

In World's End: Dust, at least the worlds can be made separately, but in the game you're talking about, even within the same world, there are dozens of variations.

The programming team felt their scalps tingle just thinking about it.

Although Xiaobai had previously said that launching another virtual game in a row might be too busy, and was worried about losing users.

But after hearing about the vision for this game, my worries immediately disappeared!

We definitely have to make this game. The market is only so big, and we're not just going to take what's rightfully ours!

In the office, Jiang Bo had already made a final decision.

"As for the name..."

He thought about those interconnected and constantly changing points in time during his journey, and soon had an idea.

"Since the whole game is about how small changes eventually lead to changes in the entire era, let's call it 'The Metamorphosis Era'."

A butterfly flaps its wings once.

Thirty years from now, it may be a completely different world.

The moment the name was mentioned, Tang Yu's eyes lit up, and the more he read it, the more suitable it seemed.

The Metamorphosis Era.

It has the connotation of the butterfly effect, and it also corresponds to the fact that the entire era is constantly changing because of the player's choices.

Jiang Bo became more and more satisfied, and even casually arranged Tang Yu's future work: "Besides, you just joined the Blank Studio, and you need a formal project. So, you can be in charge of the first super CG trailer for 'The Metamorphosis Era,' or even just make it into a 10-minute sci-fi short film."

Tang Yu really couldn't sit still this time.

"I?"

"Of course it's you." Jiang Bo glanced at him. "You were the one who came up with this story in the first place, so you know best what 2056 should feel like. Just pick a scene and film it so the players can get a general idea of ​​the plot."

This made Tang Yu feel like he'd been injected with adrenaline.

Before joining Chaoxi, he never imagined that he could return to his old profession so quickly!

In the past, projects like this would go through three rounds of revisions and four meetings, with investors, producers, and marketing departments taking turns to give their opinions. After six months of struggling with a project, they might have almost forgotten what the original story was about.

And then what happened when the time came?

This was his first formal speech, his first time attending a formal project meeting, and his first time proposing a solution.

It's approved already? The name is already decided! They even handed over their first CG project directly to him.

Tang Yu had never enjoyed such treatment before; he would have to restrain himself even in his dreams.

He was initially worried that as someone who switched from animation and film to the game industry halfway through his career, he would need at least some time to adjust to the new environment. However, after only a few days of joining, Jiang Bo was already ready to let him take charge of projects.

This is a treatment he has never received in all his years of working in the film and television industry!

He recalled how, in order to attract investment, he had to act like a grandson, carrying the script and toasting the bosses and investors who were obsessed with getting young, handsome actors into the production.

He painstakingly explained time paradoxes and the butterfly effect, but people would only pick their teeth while burping and ask, "Isn't there any kissing in this movie? How can it make money without popular stars? This is too complicated; the audience won't understand it. Just change it to a domineering CEO falling in love with a saintly woman in the apocalypse."

Countless works of painstaking effort were simply thrown into the shredder.

And today!

He hadn't even prepared a formal PowerPoint presentation, yet President Jiang made the decision right away.

Tang Yu took a deep breath and made his promise on the spot!

"General Manager Jiang..."

"Don't worry!"

"This is the first project for the Blank Space Studio! I'll definitely do my best!"

"good!"

Very impressive!

On the other side...

Just as Tang Yu began to take notes, Ma Shangfei on the other side of the conference table also became visibly excited.

Without a doubt, since "Butterfly Era" has been confirmed as a large-scale virtual game, the actual technical development will most likely fall to the virtual game department he is in charge of.

I just finished working on "Peerless," and now an even more troublesome one is coming up.

Anyone else would probably feel the pressure, but Ma Shangfei is actually experiencing a strange sense of excitement.

Before he started making virtual games, he spent every day trying to prove just how amazing his family's virtual engine really was!

Now that the project has actually arrived, he is full of interest again.

All I can say is that an interesting project can truly unleash a person's potential!

Just like making a movie, when the actors have read the script and realize that it is a masterpiece, they will definitely put in their best effort!

Despite his excitement, he sat there for a while, then his expression suddenly became hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"President Jiang, I have a question, but I'm not sure if I should ask it."

Jiang Bo didn't even look up when he heard this: "Then don't ask."

A burst of laughter immediately filled the conference room.

Ma Shangfei's lips twitched twice.

Why aren't you following the usual procedure?

But he clearly couldn't hold back any longer, and after hesitating for two seconds, he finally mustered the courage to speak:

"Well... the new content for 'I Found the Imperial Seal of the State!' seems to be almost finished."
