Number One Game Designer

Chapter 108 Easter Egg

Among the group of people Fang Xi included, Wu Zihang was just one of them. For Hong Yi, now is the beginning of taking off.

For players, the following is a pleasant winter vacation, which means that there will be a whole month and a half of events to play Yoshi unscrupulously.

Holidays are a high ground for publicity for any company. The restless office workers and the student party who have nothing to do have enough energy. Will get excited, that's what Hong Yi does.

After the time entered the winter vacation, the official of Left 4 Survival also officially announced that the relevant information about the biggest behind-the-scenes mastermind in Left 4 Survival was hidden in the details of the portal. Although the two games are of different types, they share the same worldview. A game can suddenly find some clues about the other party.

The first official clue is the latest trailer about Left 4 Dead. In this video, the protagonist of Left 4 Dead, that is, the player, recalls his experience when he was invited by the Umbrella Company to visit. When visiting the weapons section, a player found that the design drawing of a display cabinet in Umbrella Company was a bit familiar. This player then rubbed out the design drawing, used 3DMAX to make this model, and made a combination, so many players Recognized, this thing labeled as a "guard" robot by the umbrella company looks like the most primitive version of the Sentinel robot in the portal. Overall, it is a lot more bloated, and there are some differences in details, such as this design The guard mobile device in the picture is an imitation of spiders and other arthropods. It has six legs, but there are only four in the portal.

For this world, most people guessed that the portal should be Left 4 Dead. After many years, the technology has improved, so the data of the robot's legs has decreased, and a player from Canada has found stronger evidence on the Internet.

This player claims to be an easter egg hunter, and he specializes in finding easter eggs left by designers in the game. He highly appreciates the player Portal, saying that this is an extremely artistic game.

In the sixth level of the portal, the player demonstrates how to open the door in a very, very tricky position, and then the player's character can come to the border of the map, where he can see something similar to a garbage incineration plant, Among them are the old models of Sentinels, and the hexapod version of the Sentinel robot is impressively listed, which has become the most intuitive clue.

But after discovering this, players have more doubts:

The company in the portal claims to be Aperture Technology, so what does it have to do with Umbrella Corporation?

The technology in Left 4 Dead is closer to modern times, and the technology in Portal is more sci-fi. How many years have passed between the two? If there is a portal, does it mean that in the game of Left 4 Dead, humans will win in the end, and zombies will be completely wiped out?

Even as the veil of the Umbrella Company was lifted, many players began to explore every level of the portal, hoping to find out more information about the Umbrella Company and Aperture Technology.

Some players have even made bold assumptions: After the zombie tide in the road to survival, human vitality was severely injured, and they had to vigorously develop AI to speed up the recovery of human society, but in the end they were betrayed by artificial intelligence, and the master and servant reversed. Humans have become pet guinea pigs, and machines have become masters of the world. This assumption is too bold, but looking carefully, it seems that many corresponding voices can be found in the game.

The players were bustling with each other, but Hong Yi remained silent. For Fang Xi, he wished that the players would make more noise. It was all free advertising.

Even Fang Xi himself used a trumpet to go to Weibo to show his own rhythm. Looking at the players who were discussing game clues harmoniously, Fang Xi opened the trumpet and directly threw in a sentence: "I admire you as a scholar, play a game It can all be the same as archaeology,

Nothing is boring. "

Then he went offline, changed his number, and closed Weibo three times in an instant. He was so proficient that he stunned Xiaolan next to him.

"Boss Fang, you... are not doing well, are you?"

"You'll understand this when you grow up, boy, what happened to the offer you sent out yesterday?"

Fang Xi's ability to change the topic is terrible, but the facts have proved that it is very effective.

When it comes to her own job, Xiaolan doesn't care about other things, she opens the folder in her hand and glances at it.

"The two people in charge of audio and video production said that they will not be able to report to work until after the Chinese New Year, and the two who are in charge of overseas operations and publicity will also be near the end of the year. As for Wu Zihang..." Xiaolan said with a strange face: "He It has come today."

I still have an impression of Fang Xi, the person interviewed on a snowy night. What Xiaolan said was that she had just made contact with him yesterday, and she appeared at the door of Hongyi's company the next night. Startled.

However, Fang Xi felt a little more pleasant surprise. According to the information given by the headhunter, Wu Zihang stayed in a company for six years after graduation, relying on his own strength to achieve the position of director, and then it was difficult to move forward. The headhunter company's own evaluation Zhong gave Wu Zihang a very high evaluation, thinking that Wu Zihang's previous projects of his company had played an irreplaceable role. They also recommended many companies to Wu Zihang, but Hongyi was the only one that succeeded.

Hibernating, waiting for an opportunity, and not hesitating when seeing a suitable opportunity, Fang Xi can only say admiration for a person with this personality, and send an offer.

"Have you arranged an office for him yet?" Fang Xi guessed the reason for Xiaolan's embarrassment.

Generally speaking, the higher the level, the harder it is to find, because everyone takes into account issues such as personal connections in the workplace, project handover, etc., and most of them do take a month to deal with, so in Xiaolan's estimation, After the offer, I started to buy everyone's office space and office supplies. There was no time, but I met Wu Zihang, a freak.

"Let him accompany you to decorate the office area." Fang Xi said casually: "This person seems very reliable, let him follow you for the next two days, and let him officially join the job after the office is settled. These days, it’s fine to say that it’s considered salary.”

"But Mr. Fang, his responsibility has nothing to do with mine, Mr. Fang?" Fang Xi went straight out of the office without looking back.

In the past two days, the discussions on Aperture Technology and Umbrella Company have also intensified on Weibo. Fang Xi went back from get off work to tease Death, and see if the sand sculpture netizen Kan Dashan is better than being a tool person in the company?

Hongyi is already a big company, it's time for the employees to learn how to make the boss eat, drink and have fun, so that the company can develop rapidly!
