Reborn to create a virtual world

Although the company has entered into a busy operation, this busyness has little to do with Lin Shu.Except for the need to formulate some decision-making plans, he does not interfere with the work of Du Sitong and Zheng Fangcheng.

Since Lin Shu now has host assistance in his brain, he is extremely efficient in many calculations or planning tasks.For example, Du Sitong's current work from plot composition to copywriting to drawing flowcharts may be completed independently at a faster speed than the three-party division of labor.

But Lin Shu didn't do that.

Even if his work efficiency was equal to three or five people, could it be worth three hundred or five hundred people?Only by training Du Sitong and others can he establish connections layer by layer, and the last command can drive the operation of the entire system.Therefore, at this time, apart from basic planning and decision-making, Lin Shu did not interfere too much with the actions of Du Sitong and others in the company.

He maintained a company operating method that was regularly tested and maintained without interfering in everything. By the end of June, Ju Mingfeng had roughly reviewed the programming language used by VE.He originally studied this kind of major. Although the VE series of systems are not used for many years, they are already unfamiliar, but it is always much faster to relearn than a real novice.

For Lin Shu, this is obviously a good thing.Because there are many things that cannot be entrusted to others from the standpoint of his current adult heart and child body.Some ideas related to future technology cannot be researched and shared with any programmer.

But it's different with Ju Mingfeng.Their strengths can be shared and complement each other.As a capable and trustworthy object, the addition of Lin Shu and Ju Mingfeng's abilities is definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Just like Ju Mingfeng said when he was sensational before, when he and Lin Shu are together, they can do anything.They are instances where one plus one equals infinity.

During the day, the two chatted about their future plans for the day. In the evening, when Liang Jiwen came back from his talent class and came in to ask Lin Shu to play games, the conversation between the two stopped abruptly.

Ju Mingfeng somewhat disliked Liang Jiwen's light bulb, but he couldn't say that, so as not to appear that he was very narrow-minded, and would even be jealous of a child.

Then the three of them got into the game.At this time, both Lin Shu and Liang Jiwen had reached the full level of [-]. Lin Shu also went to learn how to refine weapons, and now he can make space props.He is currently the only one in the entire server, so he doesn't have to worry about selling it at all. The only thing that restricts him from selling space props in large quantities is probably that the materials are difficult to collect, so the quantity he can make each time is quite limited.

But it doesn't matter to him, anyway, Lin Shu doesn't plan to be a life player, let alone rely on this to make money in the game.He plays games purely to rest and have fun.

Instead, he had finally figured out the fighting style unique to the ethereal root that he wanted to ponder before.Konglinggen's attack power is obviously weak, but Lin Shu played it as if he was playing a professional role, so many players who didn't know the inside story mistakenly thought that Konglinggen was a very strong spiritual root.

Some people even went to the official to complain, and the customer service was so tired that they had to explain to the players again and again that the game was fair, and every spiritual root had its strengths and weaknesses. Only the strongest players, not the strongest big career.

Without realizing it, Lin Shu abused Beichen's officialdom again.

In addition, Lin Shu and the other three have now joined the Force War Ghost, mixing with Bai Zhan Cheng Shen and Yi Jian Ling Yun.Lin Shu didn't care about joining any guild at first, but Zhan Gui enthusiastically recruited him to join the guild, so he took advantage of the opportunity to join.

Lin Shu usually doesn't talk in the guild, but Ju Mingfeng is more active or arrogant.At present, he has replaced Lin Shu as the object that everyone most wants to challenge.Sure enough, not long after going online, he was dragged into the ring by Yijian Lingyun, and began to fight one-on-one.

Lin Shu didn't care about them, just went to the courier to receive the mail, and started making space props.

The result was mediocre, but I received a message "Your disciple has reached the full level, you have received a reward".Lin Shu has only one apprentice, Du Sitong who turned out to be his teacher.

He immediately made an appointment with Du Sitong at the door of the warehouse, and then packed her a set of equipment and five thousand gold as a full-level gift.

Five thousand gold is now equivalent to 500 RMB in "Nine Heavens", so Du Sitong teased and said, "Oh, is this a bonus for me?"

Lin Shu said: "Okay, then teacher, I will save your bonus this year."

The two were talking and laughing, and Lin Shu dragged Du Sitong into the Zhan Ghost faction.After entering the faction, Lin Shu took Du Sitong to the map of the faction to get the teleportation item Thousand Mile Talisman.

When the two passed through the power arena, Ju Mingfeng and Bai Zhan Chengshen were already fighting, while Yijian Lingyun was watching.Seeing Lin Shu running over with a beautiful character, he shouted, "Oh, Cangshan, how did you date a girl? Where are you from Bishui?"

Lin Shu glanced at him and rolled her eyes.

Because Ju Mingfeng entangles Lin Shu too fiercely on weekdays, the Zhan Gui people like to make fun of Lin Shu with Ju Mingfeng, and they often call Ju Mingfeng your gay or your gay friend.This title actually hits the truth, but unfortunately the people who said it didn't know it. A group of straight men just thought this title was a joke.

So Lin Shu didn't really care, Ju Mingfeng...Ju Mingfeng wished the whole world knew that he was the gay of Lin Shu's family, and he was secretly having fun, let alone jumping up to defend himself.

According to the logic of this group of beasts, they are all good gay friends, the kind who give their brothers a good time when their sex changes.With such a loss of integrity, Lin Shu really felt that it was completely pointless to argue with them about a few out-of-the-ordinary jokes.

So when Yijian Lingyun said this, Lin Shu replied lazily: "It's okay, we have a 3P."

After hanging out together for a month, Lin Shu has long learned not to explain their nonsense to this group of guys, and is also used to follow the trend and lose morals.

But it made Du Sitong black line to death.

... She is not a pedophile ... Ah bah, no, who taught this child such nonsense?It should have nothing to do with the novels she read before... She couldn't remember whether there were any inappropriate content in the novels reviewed before, but she still subjectively felt that the books selected at that time should be quite healthy, after all, they were adapted into Game.

In this way... She looked at Yijian Lingyun's character with unfriendly eyes.

Yijian Lingyun didn't realize it yet, and said wretchedly: "You two beasts, can my sister bear it?"

Oops, no, this topic is getting more and more obscene.Lin Shu felt that this topic could not be continued, otherwise the spirit of Teacher Du Sitong would suddenly erupt and run to his house to sue his parents.

So he warned Yijian Lingyun: "Don't make trouble, elder! If you keep talking, I might not be able to show up safely tomorrow."

Yijian Lingyun was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Ah... sorry. It's yours..."

"...the teacher from last semester."

Yijian Lingyun: "..."

Then you say a fart 3P! ?Who the hell doesn't want to make trouble?

As a result, Du Sitong asked with a half-hearted smile in front of the computer: "Cangshan, who is your friend...?"

Lin Shu then replied: "Yijian Lingyun is a relative and friend of the same force, teacher."

Then I heard Du Sitong let out a cold snort, and said in a tone so cold that it gave people goosebumps: "Your friend speaks quite humorously."

Then she manipulated the character to run to the power hall by herself, ignoring the two people here.Lin Shu could tell from her tone that she was probably a little angry, so he also manipulated the character to quickly follow.

Only Yijian Lingyun was left standing there for a while, and then the young man in front of the computer suddenly covered his mouth.

The moment Du Sitong spoke, Yijian Lingyun felt that his ears were about to become pregnant—of course, the premise was that he had that function.

It was a shuddering feeling with goosebumps all over the body.Yijian Lingyun had heard of love at first sight, but he didn't know there was another love at first sight.But at that moment, he really felt that his hormones seemed to be boiling, and then suddenly ignited by such a voice, trying to burn him from the inside out from every cell.

He stood there in a daze for a long time, and then completely forgot that he had to fight Ju Mingfeng for the next round. He manipulated the character and ran towards the direction where Lin Shu and Du Sitong left.

After Du Sitong got the thousand-mile talisman, he was following Lin Shu to do daily power, but he saw Yijian Lingyun following him out of the corner of his eye.After following up, he didn't speak, that is, he followed Du Sitong and Lin Shu wherever they went.

Du Sitong frowned, chatted with Lin Shu privately and asked, "Why is he following us?"

Lin Shu was also a little confused, so he chatted with Jian Lingyun privately and asked him, "Why are you following?"

Yijian Lingyun didn't know what to say, so he held back for a long time, and finally said: "No reason." Then he let out a very obscene "hehehe" in a daze.

Lin Shu got goosebumps when he heard that voice, and instinctively felt that there was something wrong with this guy's attitude.After that, he took Du Sitong to finish the daily routine, and then told her some activities that she could do after the full level, until Du Sitong was offline, Yijian Lingyun was still walking around by his side.

Lin Shu's black line: "Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Yijian Lingyun was coy for a long time, and suddenly asked: "Your teacher...has a boyfriend yet?"

Thanks to Lin Shu not drinking water, he didn't choke.But at that moment, his mind was still racing, and he felt that Lei was dead.Lin Shu replied: "Ask me about this kind of thing!"

Yijian Lingyun hesitated for a while, and then asked: "How old is your teacher? What kind of man do you like?"

"...Ask me!"

Yijian Lingyun said: "Then you can ask her out for me next time."

Lin Shu said: "You know her ID, you just need to password her."

"Will that be too abrupt? I mean, she doesn't seem to have a good impression of me, will she not want to talk to me?"

Yijian Lingyun was shy for a while, but only heard a ding, and then saw a system message popping up in the channel: Your friend [Cangshan Xiangbei] has gone offline.

Game update the next day.

The data package of the new expansion is quite large.The Liang family's network bandwidth is not small, but Lin Shu still took a long time to download it, and it took a lot of time to install it.

During the installation, he flipped through the update instructions casually, but when he saw a certain update content, he was taken aback for a moment, frowned, and let out a thud in his heart.

This paragraph of content is written like this - update the favorability mechanism of sect NPCs, and add the attribute of emotional state.When the emotional state is positive, the prestige gain has a bonus.At the same time, in a certain emotional state, the power prestige and NPC favorability above a certain value can obtain hidden tasks with rich rewards.

Lin Shu was thinking about the meaning of these words, but the phone rang.He glanced at the caller ID and found that it was Ju Mingfeng's call, so he picked it up, only to hear Ju Mingfeng complain: "Why don't you open any communication software? You don't open QQ, you don't open YY, you don't open conference software and WeChat Neither open..."

Lin Shu replied, "It's not too early in the morning."

Ju Mingfeng said, "Then the update of "Nine Heavens" hasn't been downloaded yet?"

Lin Shu said, "It's going down."

"..." Ju Mingfeng was silent for a moment, and asked, "Then have you read the update instructions?"

Lin Shu said: "I'm watching. You saw it too? The setting of the emotional state?"

Ju Mingfeng said: "Yang Ziqi really likes our games and systems..."

Lin Shu said: "He tried to ask me to buy it before, but I didn't expect him to do so... But it's hard to say, just looking at the update description doesn't mean anything, it's better to go directly to the game and have a look to understand the actual situation. "

So the two logged into the game one after another, and then went to scan the NPCs of their own sect and the specific instructions of this new setting.

Lin Shu first looked for the NPC closest to the teleportation point, and then found that there was a passive state with his head down, and it was currently an emotional icon in the "normal" state.He moved the mouse over the icon and found the detailed instructions.

"Mood: Normal. There are no attributes or reputation bonuses under this mood."

Then below are four progress bars.

"Joy: 0/100".

"Sadness: 0/100".

"Funny: 0/100".

"Rage: 1/100".

Just looking at this setting, Lin Shu commented: "The resemblance is not very similar, but it is definitely impossible to say that it has nothing to do with it. This feeling is quite subtle."

However, Ju Mingfeng firmly believes that the setting of "Nine Heavens" must have plagiarized the future system, and his reasons are very reasonable: ""Nine Heavens" did not have such a system."

Lin Shu asked: "So it means..."

"It must be the last week of your life." Ju Mingfeng said, "Lin Shu, you are asking the question knowingly."

Lin Shu said: "Let's look at the specific content of the setting. It is a bit too careless to say plagiarism so easily. Although it is a system with the same theme, if the specific design content of the other party is different, you will It cannot be said to be plagiarism, generally speaking, it still depends on the specific system design.”

So in the following time, Lin Shu and Ju Mingfeng spent a lot of time researching the nature and detailed settings of the new system "Nine Heavens".

And in this process, they are not two people fighting alone.Many players are obviously also exploring the nature and use of this new setting.The power of the masses is enormous, so after a few days, the basic settings of this system were picked up, and someone wrote a strategy.

In the emotional system, a total of [-] NPCs from the three sects will have different emotional changes.And this kind of emotion will accumulate with the player's completed tasks and various interaction options with it, and the corresponding emotional state will appear when the player reaches the full value. Each emotional state will give the player a specific attribute bonus within a limited time, and the NPC will also According to their own personalities, they will give players special attribute bonuses when they are in a certain mood. For example, NPCs with a gentle personality can increase the player's prestige or buff (gain status) when they are in a sad state. , and the NPC who is set to be irritable and irritable can give people a state in an angry state that is much higher than in other states.

There are a total of fifteen emotional states, two, three, or even all emotions occurring at the same time, will trigger different emotional states, and then produce different effects.

For example, if joy and sadness occur at the same time, it is "mixed sorrow and joy", and if joy and anger occur at the same time, it is "emotional change", and if all four emotions are triggered, it is "mixed flavors"... Mixed flavors will give a special Buff life is full of flavors, increasing the drop of rare items.

In fact, there are similar settings in the future system, allowing different emotions to appear at the same time, and then either amplify or resist each other, and then create different character reactions and plot progress.

But if they are the same, there is a big difference between "Nine Heavens" and the future system, and the details of all aspects are completely different.

As Lin Shu said before, Yang Ziqi stepped on a very subtle point. After discovering this point, Ju Mingfeng's attitude was a bit gloomy, saying: "This approach makes people uncomfortable."

In fact, Lin Shu also felt uncomfortable, but what can I do?In fact, this level of "reference" does not constitute real plagiarism, even if it is judged according to the later new copyright law, it will not be judged, but it will only make the author of the original work unhappy.

So Lin Shu not only didn't want to be useless in this aspect, but also explained to Ju Mingfeng: "This shows that our games are really good, doesn't it? Whether it was before or in the future, excellent games always It will be imitated and followed by all parties, but no matter how it is imitated, an imitation is an imitation, and we don’t need to care about it at all. If you feel uncomfortable in Mingfeng, why don’t we discuss how to do the new system. We not only want If we lead the trend in the development and management category, if we can also lead the trend in action role-playing, our platform will be truly established.”

Ju Mingfeng said: "Isn't it a bit fast to jump to ARPG all at once? The difficulty of ARPG and cultivation is completely different."

The engine that Lin Shu made before for "Three Kingdoms" does not involve [-]D animation or the like. Most of the screen switching is directly using the image cut-in and cut-out method. The management and indoor map part uses a little Take a look at the Q version of the paper doll dynamic figure, and the difficulty gap between this and the real ARPG production is about the distance across the entire Pacific Ocean.

It is the distance between China and Europe and the United States.

Now domestic [-]D character dynamics are well done, and there are only a few well-known online games.For stand-alone machines, even the most outstanding stand-alone manufacturers, the character models and movements are not very natural.As I said before, this involves not only electronic technology, but also knowledge about the human body.

But Ju Mingfeng knew very well that what Lin Shu wanted to do was definitely not the kind of model effect that could only be said to make a living.

He would definitely want the characters to move smoothly, have a good sense of impact when fighting, and have enough aesthetic feeling in action to be pleasing to the eye.

This difficulty is not small.

Ju Mingfeng thought for a while and said, "Recently, there are too many places to spend money. Although the profits of the platform have been increasing, the time is short after all. According to Zheng Fangcheng's last account, if we want to recruit people again and give new ones If the engine project is approved, our funds may be stretched."

Lin Shu naturally understood this, so he said, "Then don't approve the project, and we will do it ourselves for the time being."

Ju Mingfeng looked at him in astonishment.

Lin Shu said: "The current analog version engine still has room for improvement. We don't need to rush to launch action ones. After its situation stabilizes and there is no room for improvement, we need to consider launching the second engine. when."

"According to my estimation, it will take at least one to two years. In this one or two years, we can slowly prepare for the engine. My current work efficiency is very high. As long as I have enough time, it may not be impossible Complete the main body of the program. As for more complex details and some time-consuming work, it can be outsourced in the later stage, or the manpower can be expanded when the time comes."

"As for the plot text and the like, we can hand it over to the copywriting team. We need to use ready-made works to adapt, or start to set and write all of them. There is still enough time. You can decide slowly. It takes ten years to sharpen the sword , this efficiency is obviously too low. But after three years of sharpening a sword, we can still afford it."

Ju Mingfeng nodded, and then asked: "What kind of ARPG game do you want to make? Do you have an idea?"

Lin Shu nodded and said, "I made a list of all the eye-catching new technology applications in games in the next 20 years, including plane games and virtual reality games. AI artificial intelligence, voice Recognition, image recognition, virtual imaging, nerve connection, optical information processing and biological information processing systems, neural signal atlas, 3D printing technology and 3D video recording technology... Considering our future development direction, these technologies must be available in the future Of course, the scope of these technologies is too wide and there are too many fields. It is too greedy to want to master all of them, and it is not conducive to the development of technologies. It is said that there are only advantages and no disadvantages."

"The applications that can be used with the current technology are still relatively limited. I hope that the development of the next engine can incorporate primary AI and speech recognition technology."

Ju Mingfeng pondered for a while, and said: "The structure and algorithm are fine. Even if I can't completely restore it, it is only a matter of time to recalculate it. But what about the information database?"

AI intelligent life, to put it bluntly, is an anthropomorphic program simulated by computer technology.It is mainly based on two aspects. One is the anthropomorphic structure algorithm technology, and all technical applications fall into this category, including logical algorithms and natural language processing, etc., and the other is the accumulation of information databases.The shaping of a personality, whether it is a real human or an artificial intelligence, requires the accumulation of knowledge and information.This is a long process. Only after accumulating a huge amount of information and data can AI be closer to the performance category of humans.

Lin Shu said: "That's why I'm going to start preparations now—to have enough time to prepare and optimize the AI ​​system."

Ju Mingfeng immediately understood what Lin Shu meant.He intends to slowly "raise" the AI ​​system during this period of time.

Then Lin Shu said: "As for the speech recognition system... To be honest, our major does not involve this aspect, so I want to directly purchase technology from outside or poach from future researchers. Do you think... we are Is it better to dig from the south or from the north?"
