Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 7 Game Development Direction

From the moment Bao Zixuan was reborn, he decided to start with games to earn his first pot of gold, and he already listed the games he wanted to develop.

Tetris, the masterpiece in the game world, was a small game developed by the Russians in 1984 to test computer performance. It can be said to play a decisive role in the history of world games. Nintendo basically obtained the agency rights at a bargain price, which left the former author Alexei Pajitnov with little benefit or benefit except for his fame.

Although it is 7 years early, the performance of the IBM minicomputer is definitely better than that of the 1984 personal computer that was used for testing. Moreover, it is just an ordinary 2D game that does not require excessive computer computing speed, and the computer performance is completely sufficient. It took Alexey Pajitnov only 9 days to complete all the programming. There was no reason for Bao Zixuan, who knew the principles of computing, to lag behind him, so Bao Zixuan started his own programming while asking lawyer He Mingcheng to register a company and find a factory.

Although I am not very familiar with current computer systems, I have learned about computers for two lifetimes and I can still get started quickly. Tetris will become a thing of the past. Now there is only Xiangjiang Square, and the author must be Bao Zixuan. In the future, if Alexei Pajitnov has any difficulties or wants to work in his company, then give him more salary! Now I can only say sorry to him.

Xiangjiang Cube (the original space-time Tetris, which will not be mentioned later) is a flat virtual field used to place small squares. Its standard size is 10 in row width and 20 in column height. Taking each small square as a unit, a set of regular graphics consists of 4 small squares. There are 7 main graphics in the early stage. The number of graphics will be increased according to the upgrade of the game in the future, but the early version will always be the most classic.

Bao Zixuan started building a flat virtual venue, which was not very complicated for him. It only took him one night to set up a flat virtual venue; this was before he was fully proficient in using the computer system. During this period, Li Yulin came to his room twice, once to bring him fruit, and the second time at 12 o'clock in the evening to let him have a good rest and pay attention to the balance between work and rest.

Bao Zixuan didn't want to waste any time, but after seeing Li Yulin's concerned eyes, he finished setting up the flat virtual venue at 1:30 in the morning and went to bed. He knew that Li Yulin wouldn't sleep if he didn't sleep. After watching her son take a bath, Li Yulin rested.

The next morning, Bao Zixuan got up at 7 o'clock in the morning. Looking at the breakfast on the table, he knew that Li Yulin had already gone to the store and left a note saying that she would come back to cook for him at noon. After having breakfast, he went to the community for exercise and started his work at 9 o'clock in the morning. The Russians used 9 days. He had to compress the time. Now he must reserve more resources and strength to complete what he wants. .

Today's main task is to model 7 different shapes of blocks. Bao Zixuan spent the whole morning working on the computer except going to the bathroom. When Li Yulin finished making lunch, he had completed the modeling of four types of blocks. It seemed that the block model could be completed tonight. Li Yulin also found that her son had changed and became a bit strange. He was no longer so close to her. The child who came to help in the store after vacation could no longer come back. This was probably his growth after studying in the UK! Every mother hopes that her son will become a successful child, but they still hope that their son will be dependent on them. This may be a common problem among parents all over the world, and it is difficult to change when the two of them are eating.

Li Yulin: "Axuan, although I don't know what you are doing, I don't understand, and I can't help you. But you must also pay attention to your health, don't tire yourself out, and take a good rest sometimes. Shop There's nothing going on this afternoon, I've told Lao Liu and the others to stay with you and take good care of you these days."

Bao Zixuan: "Mommy, it's okay, I'll take care of it; you don't have to take care of me, but it's good for you to have a good rest. It's too tiring to see you working like this every day."

Li Yulin: "I don't care. Now you have to listen to me before you get married and sleep for two hours in the afternoon. I'll watch you."

Looking at Li Yulin's serious and concerned expression, "Okay! I listen to you." Bao Zixuan replied. The two began to eat. After refusing Bao Zixuan's help in clearing the dishes, Li Yulin asked him to have a good rest. And it was an order that could not be refused; he had no choice but to set an alarm and prepare to sleep for two hours.

When Bao Zixuan got up, he looked at the time and it was already 4 pm. It turned out that Li Yulin had turned off the alarm clock while he was asleep. We have no choice but to start over from scratch, and we have to increase the progress again.

As Bao Zixuan continued programming every day, a simple version of Xiangjiang Cube was soon completed. The remaining content filling mainly involves asking the soundtrack teacher to perform the soundtrack and the artist to perform the art rendering. After playing for a day and fixing a few bugs, I nodded with satisfaction. It only took half the time of the original author!

At this time, the phone at home rang. After Li Yulin chatted with the person on the other end of the phone for a few words, she knocked on Bao Zixuan's door and said, "Axuan, Lawyer He is here to see you."

After Bao Zixuan answered the phone: "Uncle He, how's it going?"

He Mingcheng: "Mr. Bao! You should be calm. If you want me to register a company, I've already done it for you. I haven't contacted you in the past few days and I'm helping you find a factory. I've found two suitable ones so far." . They are all in Kowloon. We have made an appointment to go there next Monday, which means we will arrive at 10 a.m. the day after tomorrow. You can go downstairs to my company at 9 o'clock and we will go together."

Bao Zixuan: "Thank you, Attorney He. Don't worry, I'll see you the day after tomorrow. After chatting for a few words, I hung up the phone."

But at this time, when she heard that her son was still looking for a factory, Li Yulin immediately lost her composure.

Li Yulin: "A-Xuan, don't let the small lose the big! You can do business at any time, but study only lasts for a few years!"

Bao Zixuan: "Don't worry, Mommy! We are just producing prototypes here, and the main market is still in the United States." After that, he returned to his room and started making the second game. Regarding the second game, Bao Zixuan also chose the classic from his previous life - Pac-Man.

Pac-Man's previous life was first launched in the arcade by RB Namco in 1980. Of course, such a classic game must be used. However, although Pac-Man is also a small game, it is much more complicated than Xiangjiang Cube. You can do it by yourself. It is estimated that it will take about 1-2 months if people work hard. Now it seems that what I have to do is to finish writing the underlying code and setting the game outline. In the end, I can only hire more game designers to jointly develop it.

So Bao Zixuan focused his work the next day on the game outline and underlying code settings. The game outline he wrote seemed very detailed for people in this era. After all, I had managed the research and development of aircraft engines in my previous life, and the departments involved were much more complicated than a small game.

Bao Zixuan, who had been staying at home for a few days, was about to go out again. While at home, Li Yulin hardly went to the store and stayed with her son. This made him feel very guilty for not having time to spend with his mother. When you have time in the future, you must spend time with your mother; definitely.
