Chapter 1516 President Pei's Midas Touch!

You have to know, at the meeting, Zhu Xiaoce and Ye Zhizhou were both inspired by President Pei to come up with these two new ideas.

They themselves might be secretly pleased with their own ideas, completely unaware of these details.

But after simply listening to the two of them describe their ideas, President Pei instantly realized the problems with each of their ideas, and cleverly used the method of swapping ideas to allow each other's stories to reach their theoretical limits.

What's this called?

This is called the finishing touch, this is called turning the impossible into the miraculous!

A true master can use a seemingly simple, even absurd operation to turn an excellent work into a masterpiece.

Yu Fei even felt that it was right for him to stay and continue working on this game.

Being able to experience this kind of thing firsthand is a huge profit!

What's the use of working behind closed doors? It's just writing more words. But following President Pei, he can learn the most profound game design techniques and experience so many excellent stories.

Yu Fei couldn't help but wonder, if he was eliminated one day and left the Tenda Games department, wouldn't he be invincible when he went back to write web novels?

So, he gave up the idea of resigning again and decided to develop the game "The Future You Choose" first.

It would be great to be able to create such a masterpiece with his own hands!

After simply sorting out his thoughts, Yu Fei began to write the plot.

This time, "The Future You Choose" is being produced simultaneously as a game and a movie, and is jointly responsible by three departments: Tenda Games, Shang Yang Games, and Fei Huang Studio, each performing its own duties.

Among them, Yu Fei is mainly responsible for the plot framework, providing support for games and movies; Ye Zhizhou is responsible for the gameplay design of the game, and Zhu Xiaoce is responsible for filming the movie.

Yu Fei must first sort out the two stories clearly, perfect various details, and keep in touch with Ye Zhizhou and Zhu Xiaoce at all times during this period.

The three of them brainstormed to ensure that the game and the movie could develop in the direction President Pei requested.

In addition to this, Yu Fei will also write these two different stories into a book, which is the official novel of "The Future You Choose."

His book was originally a cyberpunk theme, and it has only just begun and has not been written very deeply, so it is very convenient to modify.

Yu Fei plans to fully integrate these two stories into his existing story structure, and then combine it with the "Resist Tenda" worldview proposed by President Pei. In this way, there will be a very rich range of selectable themes.

Of course, after such an integration, the entire story structure will be different from traditional web novels.

But that doesn't matter. Yu Fei feels that there is no need to be too rigid about this kind of thing. So what if it's a web novel? Web novel readers, in the final analysis, don't want a certain formula, but a good story.

The creative rules of web novels are not set in stone. They can be broken as long as good enough content can be provided.

Yu Fei was full of confidence in this, and quickly typed on the keyboard, feeling that his work efficiency had improved rapidly again.

...

At the same time, Zhu Xiaoce was also at Fei Huang Studio, researching Ye Zhizhou's idea with Huang Sibao.

Although Huang Sibao is not as good as Zhu Xiaoce in film shooting, he is, after all, a game designer and has a deep understanding of games.

Of course, Huang Sibao understood the reasoning that Yu Fei could figure out even faster.

After Zhu Xiaoce carefully studied Ye Zhizhou's idea, he also discovered its essence.

After the two discussed it, they understood President Pei's intention.

Zhu Xiaoce said with emotion: "Although my idea seems good, if you think about it carefully, you will find that there are certain problems."

"At that time, I was only thinking about big scenes and war scenes, thinking about the process of the protagonist fighting against Tenda and gradually becoming 'inhuman'. I was a little stuck in my own way of thinking."

"But if you think about it carefully, isn't this more suitable for games to show?"

"War scenes require a lot of special effects and funding to make, and besides, is watching these war scenes in a movie as enjoyable as personally controlling the protagonist to fight in a game?"

"The protagonist's transformation of himself is very pale when shown in a movie, but it can be shown very deeply in the game. Because after the protagonist transforms himself, players can directly feel it from the improvement of the protagonist's combat power, and it can also affect the game's combat gameplay."

"Players unknowingly indulge in this improvement of strength, so when the protagonist falls into confusion on the rooftop in the end, players will feel the same way and be questioned."

"This is very much in line with President Pei's favorite 'breaking the dimensional wall' approach."

"And the protagonist exploding into fireworks in the air... It's difficult for players to feel the same way. Instead, it's more appropriate to put it in a movie and let the audience watch it from an observer's perspective."

"Ye Zhizhou's idea is more suitable for making a movie."

"Because the focus of this idea is not on action scenes, but on drama. A small gangster who grew up on the streets, and whose combat effectiveness is not very strong until the end. The end of this story is not about upgrading or fighting, but about focusing on all kinds of characters."

"Compared with big war scenes, the details of life in the cyberpunk world are more suitable for movies, because we can use exquisite sets to replace special effects. This is the advantage of movies over games."

"The movie will give the audience a sense of detachment, not completely immerse themselves in the characters, but examine them from an observer's point of view."

"The audience watches the protagonist climb up step by step from a street gangster, using any means to achieve his goals, but in the end it is all in vain."

"Players may not accept it in the game, because they are involved in the protagonist and think that they have put in efforts but have not gained anything; but in the movie, the audience can easily accept it from an observer's perspective and have a condescending feeling of pity."

"So, President Pei's change is simply inspired!"

"If we are completely limited to our own ideas, then the games and movies we make are likely to be just ordinary good works."

"But now, with the exchange of two ideas, there is the possibility of becoming a masterpiece!"

The more Zhu Xiaoce and Huang Sibao analyzed, the more they felt that President Pei was too amazing.

What is meant by turning stone into gold?

The feeling of working on a project with President Pei is like climbing a high mountain shrouded in layers of clouds.

Every time you pass through a cloud layer, you think you are a little closer to the top of the mountain, but you continue to climb up, pass through a few more cloud layers, and find that you still can't see the top of the mountain, and naturally feel your own insignificance.

Zhu Xiaoce immediately got busy and started various preparations for the film.

How the game protagonist is made depends on the game department, but the protagonist of the movie must be played by Lu Zhiyao!

This time, he will play several roles in the movie again.

From the initial gangster, to the liaison in the middle stage, to the fierce gang leader, and finally to becoming a wealthy businessman, each identity is very challenging.

Moreover, there are many, many details in it.

For example, in the section where he becomes a wealthy businessman, Lu Zhiyao must perform at least three images: the original wealthy businessman, the protagonist who is learning to become a wealthy businessman, and the protagonist who has truly become a wealthy businessman.

According to the setting of the plot, the original wealthy businessman is similar in stature and appearance to the protagonist, so he can achieve the effect of impersonation.

Therefore, the appearance of Lu Zhiyao must be changed to a certain extent through makeup and special effects techniques, so that the audience can clearly recognize that the wealthy businessman and the protagonist are two completely different people, but they just look a bit alike.

And the three images mentioned before have obvious differences.

The original wealthy businessman should be very natural. He was born rich, well-educated, and has a unique temperament in his gestures.

The protagonist who is learning to become a wealthy businessman must try to change his habitual actions as a street gangster and correct his behavior patterns and ways of speaking.

The protagonist who finally becomes a wealthy businessman is a combination of the two. He must look like the original wealthy businessman, but not exactly the same, and retain some of the protagonist's behavioral details. After all, no one can completely become another person through imitation.

Whether the subtle differences between these three images can be perfectly displayed in front of the audience depends entirely on Lu Zhiyao's acting skills.

But Zhu Xiaoce believed that Lu Zhiyao would be very happy to accept this challenge.

Fei Huang Studio quickly entered a state of tension and busy work as it launched a major project.

They worked until noon and left work on time.

The two put down their work and prepared to have lunch first.

Tenda employees have a special ability, that is, they can immediately stop their work after getting off work on time, and can quickly pick it up again after going to work next time.

In other words, work can be interrupted anywhere at any time without affecting efficiency.

There's no way, this is all forced out.

Leaving work on time is due to President Pei's strict requirements, and being able to perfectly connect after work is to ensure the completion of work tasks and improve efficiency.

At first, everyone was not used to it, but later they gradually discovered that their work ability had greatly improved!

The reason is also very simple: to achieve this kind of "connect-as-you-go" working state, you must plan your work content very clearly, know what to do, and know what to do next at a glance.

And in the process of constantly cultivating this planning ability, everyone's work ability will naturally improve.

This principle is actually similar to writing a novel: some authors rely heavily on inspiration and inspired strokes. When inspiration comes, they must write non-stop, because if they do something else, the inspiration may be gone; but mature authors often know how to produce content steadily and continuously, and the planned content can be disconnected and reconnected at any time.

The difference between the two is actually the difference in creative ability.

While eating his Moyu takeaway, Huang Sibao opened the leader group that he hadn't paid attention to for a long time.

Like Yu Fei, Zhu Xiaoce, and others, he has been seriously thinking about the gameplay of the game and the script of the movie recently, and has not paid much attention to the outside world.

However, after seeing the discussion in the leader group, Huang Sibao realized that many things seemed to have happened recently.

The first thing was the news that GOG and IOI were going to merge, which caused an uproar.

The second thing was that many departments of Tenda were under fierce attack, and the situation was not optimistic!
