Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

But at least they didn't refuse, which is a good thing.

Lin Li's mind was racing.

Then he said.

"Okay, okay, I'm not really worried. It's just that the Black Myth project is really stuck, and I'm an outsider who can't help. I'm anxious."

Lin Li's words elevated Black Myth to the forefront.

The reason why I say that.

The reason is that the project Feng Yi worked on was actually quite famous within the industry.

Just like Guo Fan went around begging for donations to film The Wandering Earth, Feng Yi also went around begging for donations before accepting funding from Spark Fund.

Such people are those with exceptional personal abilities.

Whether I get the money or not is another matter, but at least I'm well-liked.

In particular, there was a period when Feng Yi even considered using Unreal Engine to make games.

Therefore, Wang Chengxin and Feng Yi actually had very in-depth exchanges.

Although later, Xinghuo suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

The collaboration did not materialize, but that did not diminish Wang Chengxin's concern for Feng Yi and his project.

Aside from the topic of Black Myth.

In those few short sentences, Lin Li has twice mentioned his inability to handle the game engine.

This is a drawback.

However, it can also become an advantage in different environments.

Lin Li is successful in the gaming industry, and everyone knows that Spark has abundant funds.

However, he has repeatedly mentioned his inability to handle the game engine.

what does this mean?

This means that Xinghuo needs someone knowledgeable in the field, and if such a person exists, Lin Li will definitely value them highly.

To some extent.

Eager to find talented people.

This is also a subtle hint that they are hiring.

Wang Chengxin was a smart man; he could sense this hint.

After Lin Li finished speaking, he silently waited for the other party's response.

On the other end of the phone.

Wang Chengxin sat in his office and glanced at the other office opposite him.

That's the office of Steve, the president of EPIC China.

At this moment, Steve was in an online meeting. As for the content of the meeting, Wang Chengxin didn't even need to listen; he could guess it all.

What else could it be? Thinking of this, Wang Chengxin checked the itinerary again.

The company has scheduled another full day of business for him tomorrow.

He sighed inwardly.

He's a tech guy, and lately he hasn't been involved in engine development much.

I heard it wasn't just him; all his subordinates were the same.

The only people at EPIC that are still working on the engine are probably the people at headquarters.

Think of this.

Wang Chengxin tapped the itinerary with his pen.

"If possible, I happen to have some time tomorrow. Is tomorrow convenient for you?"

Chapter 210 Heart-to-Heart Talk

Hearing that the other party is willing to meet.

Lin Li nodded happily.

After agreeing on a time and hanging up the phone, Lin Li felt much more refreshed.

He then called Feng Yi.

But it's a pity.

At that time, Feng Yi was in Shanxi with his team filming.

There's no way to help him fool people.

The next afternoon.

Lin Li met Wang Chengxin at a high-end tea restaurant in Shanghai.

Coincidentally, neither of them brought anyone else with them; it was just the two of them.

Afterwards, Lin Li booked a private room for tea.

Once inside the private room, Lin Li first recounted the details and issues he had discussed with the engine department the previous night, and then pretended to hand over a document.

These issues were addressed by the Suzhou engine department overnight yesterday.

These are also many things they encounter in practice.

According to Lin Li's words on the phone, this meeting was for this purpose, so Wang Chengxin didn't pay any attention to it.

Lin Li was puzzled as to why he came alone.

But I didn't think much of it.

He immediately picked up the documents and started reading them.

Then, after thinking for a while, he began to give his advice.

It turns out.

EPIC is terrible on gaming platforms.

But in terms of engine research, it is indeed top-notch.

Wang Chengxin truly understands the most cutting-edge technologies.

For example, while the current Spark Engine has solved the problem of replicating scanned high-definition recorded models into the game.

However, because the modeling detail after high-definition scanning is too high, the configuration requirements for running it on a real machine are extremely high.

Even with computer configurations two years from now, it's not certain that basic smoothness will be achieved.

"We've actually encountered this problem before. Currently, we're trying to achieve high ground rendering through the GPU-driven rendering pipeline."

"It can use a transformation matrix to calculate frustum culling, a method that transforms the vertices of the bounding box to the camera's clip space coordinate system to determine whether an object is visible..."

What Wang Chengxin is talking about now is actually the Nanite technology in Unreal Engine 5.

Unfortunately, Lin Li couldn't understand a word of it.

However, this reminded him of the time he had discussed it with Borg.

Let's apply it slightly.

He nodded repeatedly.

"I see."

"Yes, that's true."

"Amazing!"

They chatted idly for about ten minutes.

Wang Chengxin smiled and shook his head.

"Did Mr. Lin really understand what you just said?"

Lin Li laughed heartily upon hearing this.

I feel there's really no need to hide it anymore.

"I didn't understand, but after hearing what you said, I believe one thing: you are the only one who can put the Spark Engine on the right track."

Actually, before coming here...

Wang Chengxin had already vaguely guessed Lin Li's intentions.

But when Lin Li expressed himself so bluntly, Wang Chengxin still took a sip of tea with a slightly surprised expression.

"I was determined to create a next-generation game engine that manufacturers all over the world could afford."

Lin Li unfurled the flag.

"Mr. Wang, how can you teach me?"

To be honest, Lin Li's words were a bit risky.

But in the first place, Lin Li invited the other party to this meeting.

If he continues to be vague, it would be rather unpleasant.

Wang Chengxin remained expressionless after listening.

If someone else said this...

He got up and left.

Looking across the entire Chinese market, there are practically none that can rival EPIC in terms of engine technology.

However, it was Lin Li who said this.

It gives people a slightly different feeling.

In other words.

Both were poaching talent, but one was a manager from Tencent who poached someone, while the other was Ma Huateng.

The effects are completely different.

Lin Li said he wanted to create a next-generation game engine.

Wang Chengxin naturally believed that he was not lying.

"President Lin, why do you suddenly want to make a top-tier engine? Actually, you can cooperate with us and don't need to develop it yourself."

Wang Chengxin's words seem somewhat thoughtless.

After all, unless EPIC abandons its PC gaming platform business, how could the two companies possibly cooperate?

But, actually.

Wang Chengxin's inner qualities are not found in his words.

He also came from a large company, which is quite significant for a large company.

Projects can be started or cut just as easily.

Take EPIC China as an example.

He remembered that the Chinese branch was originally expected to be responsible for one-third of the engine development, and he still remembered the grand promises made to him by the CEO of EPIC.

But now?

Therefore, for large companies...

There are a hundred reasons to do it.

If you don't do it, you can find a hundred reasons.

This is what Wang Chengxin is worried about.

Today you, Lin Li, shout that you want to create the most advanced game engine, but tomorrow you might say you want to create an engine that suits the masses.

As the boss, it doesn't matter to Mr. Lin if he changes his stance.
