"Oh, the event seems to have started."
Hearing Li Yong say that the event was about to start, Mitarashi Nanaya breathed a long sigh of relief. He really couldn't stand this kind of torture anymore.
Mitarai Nanaya said to Mitarai Mia and the others in neon language, "The "Minecraft" event is about to start. The game will no longer be played. Let's watch the event."
When she heard that the game was over, Mitarai Mia said with some unfinished content, "This game is really fun. Let's play it after we finish watching the activities."
"After watching the activity, it's time for lunch."
"Then let's play after lunch."
Mitarashi Nanaya didn't dare to answer the question, and ran directly to the window, looking towards the door of the game theme museum.
After a while, there were more people at the entrance of the game theme museum, but because there were more staff to maintain order, it seemed less chaotic than before. Everyone was queuing up and orderly.
The screen on the temporary stage was also turned on, and there was a poster on it. There was a little man with a square head and a square head holding a sword.
Seeing the little man, Mitarai Nanaya wondered, "Is it because the pixels of this screen are too low? I see why this little man is so blurry and grainy?"
Gao Yao said with a smile, "It's not a problem with the screen. This game focuses on this style. Everything in it is made up of small squares."
"Oh, that's right." Mitarashi Nanaya nodded.
He doesn't know much about video games. In his impression, a good game has smooth movements, clear graphics, and lifelike characters, so he couldn't understand it when he saw that the graphics of "Minecraft" were so blurry.
Gao Yao could also see that Mitarashi Nanaya was confused, so he explained, "This game mode is a bit counterintuitive. It seems that the picture is very blurry, but it has a great advantage. It is like many sandbox games nowadays.
What it doesn’t have is a high degree of freedom.”
Mitarashi Nanaya listened in a daze. Of course he knew what the degree of freedom meant, but he couldn't understand what this blurred picture had to do with the degree of freedom.
Gao Yao smiled and said, "Maybe the content later in the event will answer your questions."
Although Gao Yao does not know the specific content of the event, he believes that this kind of game promotion activity will definitely show the highlights of the game to players.
The host said something on the stage and briefly introduced the game "Minecraft", and then a picture was played on the screen behind him.
What is played this time is real-time game footage, showing how the characters mine, forge, and build in the game world.
After watching this video, Mitarashi Nanaya also somewhat understood what Gao Yao meant by freedom, but he was still not very interested in this game because the picture was indeed very ordinary and the things created by the game characters in the video looked ordinary.
Very vague.
After the video was played, in order to liven up the atmosphere, the host held a lottery on the spot. The prizes for today's event were also very generous. There were three kinds of prizes released in the first wave, one for the first prize, a BenQ Celeron desktop computer, and a second prize.
Three first prizes, a BenQ S1 mobile phone, six third prizes, and a Netac USB flash drive.
The key is that the host didn't nag at all. He just said the lottery would be drawn, and after three, five, and two were drawn, the prizes would be distributed directly on the spot.
The lottery mode is also very interesting. You can directly draw the numbers of all the starry sky cards that enter the park today on the big screen. After you draw, you can go on stage to receive the prize by raising your hand within fifteen seconds. If no one raises their hand within fifteen seconds, you will be drawn again.
The audience did not expect this kind of lottery method, so they hurriedly went to win people. After a while, there were more people at the door of the game theme pavilion, and more people gathered around the windows upstairs.
Mitarashi Nanaya smiled and said, "What if we are drawn?"
"Then just raise your hands here. As far as I can see, you all are looking at your numbers. If you win, we will quickly raise our hands to respond. Li Yong, go and get our loudspeaker.
, don’t be embarrassed if you shout to the host and the host doesn’t hear you.”
"Okay." Li Yong nodded and quickly went to get the loudspeaker.
Seeing the active use, Mitarashi Nanaya smiled. Sure enough, the money is still exciting. Although the content of the previous activities is not particularly exciting and does not show any advantages of "Minecraft", this wave of quick draws
It directly ignited the hearts of the audience.
The prizes are really generous. The three categories of prizes add up to 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. Moreover, from the time the host announces the prize content to the time when the prizes are drawn, it takes no more than five minutes. It is very neat and tidy, unlike other lottery draws.
During the event, one prize was mentioned over and over again. Looking at this posture, there must be more prizes later.
Sure enough, a pixel artist came on stage to perform a dance, and then Ma Tianyuan, the first two-time WCG StarCraft champion, walked onto the stage.
Ma Tianyuan wears a crown on his head, which has several words written on it. People with sharp eyes can see it. It says "the most evil person".
This "number one villain" has a history. When the first WCG was held, after winning the 24-to-12 game, Ma Tianyuan first smashed the mouse angrily, and then ran in front of Goryeo's opponent Story.
Give each other a pat on the shoulder to encourage them.
He said words of encouragement, but his expression was particularly ferocious, so some people jokingly called him the number one villain in e-sports.
In the second session, this guy became even more powerful. Before the finals, almost all the players were swept by him, and he encouraged each other at the end of every game, so his reputation as a villain was further confirmed.
This guy also makes fun of himself, so he got himself a crown with the title of the most evil person written on it.
After Ma Tianyuan came on stage, he interacted with everyone for a while and recommended the game "Minecraft" to everyone. Finally, he also came to draw a bunch of prizes.
The awards this time are also quite generous, including five BenQ keyboards, five BenQ mice and an Acer laptop.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing how lively the scene was, Mitarai Nanaya was a little worried about "Minecraft". Although the event attracted many people through the lottery, everyone seems to be here now.
I only care about the lottery and don’t pay attention to the game "Minecraft". Isn’t this putting the cart before the horse?
But soon, Mitarashi Nanaya changed his mind.
After the prize draw, Ma Tianyuan did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he had a computer brought to the stage, and the staff connected the computer to the screen on the stage.
Ma Tianyuan sat in front of the computer and said with a smile, "Actually, I have started playing this game before. It can be said that I am the first non-insider to play "Minecraft". As a specially invited insider
As a tester, my task is to help Snow Mountain Company find out the problems with this game, but unfortunately, my task failed."
Having said this, Ma Tianyuan paused, and then continued, "This game is very mature. At least when I played it, I found almost no problems. Instead, I gradually became addicted to it while playing. Now
, I want to log in to my account on this computer and show you what is in my account."
Enter your account number, enter your password, and enter the game...
At first glance, Ma Tianyuan's account looks no different from the game screen just now, a whole pixel world.
But as Ma Tianyuan controlled the character to fly forward, the audience noticed something was wrong. Those with sharp eyes saw a gray dot slowly getting bigger in the distance.
At first it was just a gray dot, then slowly turned into a large square, and the colors gradually became richer. Then people saw a river, a bridge, several boats, houses, shops, flowers and trees, and pedestrians coming and going.
Pavilions and pavilions...
The onlookers were stunned by this picture. After a while, someone exclaimed, "This is "Along the River During the Qingming Festival"!"
Following this exclamation, other onlookers also shouted out. They could not believe that these complex buildings were actually made of the square materials just now.
At this time, people understood the meaning of the name "My World", and it was indeed like a world.
Mitarashi Nanaya also had a dull look on his face. He turned to look at Gao Yao. He wanted to ask Gao Yao something, but he didn't expect that Gao Yao also had a dull look on his face. He was no better than him.
Gao Yao knew that those simple blocks would increase the degree of freedom, but he did not expect that the degree of freedom would be raised to such a high level.
Before Mitarashi Nanaya could ask anything, Gao Yao suddenly exclaimed, "Fuck!"
Mitarashi Nanaya quickly turned around and saw that on the big screen, the game world had changed from day to night, the entire city was brightly lit, and countless lanterns were floating in the sky above the city.
Seeing this scene, Gao Yao couldn't help but say, "The east wind blows thousands of trees and flowers into bloom at night, and even blows them down, and the stars are like rain."
Mitarai Nanaya's Chinese proficiency was not enough for him to understand the meaning of this sentence, but he could still feel the image from the flowers and trees and the stars like rain.
The two girls were covering their mouths and staring wide-eyed at this moment. No girl could resist this scene of lights filling the sky and the lights and moon shining brightly.
Seeing Amamiya Aiko's eyes filled with stars, Mitarai Nanaya also had the urge to build a world like this for Aiko in the game, and also learn the words Gao Yao just said.
Li Yong murmured, "This is really made in the game, not a special effects video made by a game company?"
He expressed everyone's thoughts. After all, it was too exaggerated to create "Along the River During Qingming Festival".
As if hearing their thoughts, Ma Tianyuan on the stage said with a smile, "You will definitely feel awesome after seeing these pictures, but I want to tell you, it is not easy to accomplish these. I am here with my friends
It took several months to complete. And in order to complete this "Along the River During the Qingming Festival", we studied the pictures and related information of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" many times, and also consulted some professional architects. You are playing this game
When doing this, you can start with the simple answer. You can try to make a wall first, and then make a simple earth house, and then build a building later. You don’t have to make an ancient building, you can also make some Western castles. I still have
A friend, the famous science fiction writer Fu Shui, has been working on Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry recently, but he is quite busy and has not finished it yet."
"Ouch!"
When Ma Tianyuan said that Fu Shui was working on Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there was another burst of exclamation among the staff. Many foreigners couldn't keep up with the rhythm. When they heard other people "ooh", they also followed suit.
Only then did the "Minecraft" exhibition reach its real climax. "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" was so overbearing that no one could argue with it.
The more Ma Tianyuan said that this thing was more difficult, he told the audience not to try it easily. Instead, he made everyone believe that this thing was made, and it also aroused everyone's competitiveness.
Why, even though you are the world champion, this new game is not your specialty. If you can do it, I can’t do it?
Seeing that the atmosphere had reached this point, the host smiled and said, "Tonight at 6:30, "Minecraft" will be officially released on space. The first 1,000 players who purchase the game will receive a set worth 99
Yuan's commemorative card. At the same time, the first construction competition of "Minecraft" will also be open. As of June 1, 2002, everyone can record their own entries and submit them to the official website. The competition is fair and open, and the awards will be awarded.
We hope everyone can participate enthusiastically."
…
At this time, viewers in the United States were staring at the screen to watch the live broadcast of the annual meeting.
Because today is a game theme day, the live broadcast camera is facing the "Minecraft" event booth.
When "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" came out just now, it shocked not only the jaws of the live audience, but also the jaws of many viewers in the online live broadcast room.
This year’s Deep Space Annual Meeting is different from previous years, as the entire event will be broadcast live online.
When watching the live broadcast, the audience felt incredible because the live broadcast effect was so good.
Although online live broadcasting is not popular, it is not the first of its kind by Deep Space Company. Some people have played it a few years ago, and the one that has received the most attention in recent years is Victoria's Secret's online live broadcast.
Victoria's Secret only started airing on broadcasters last year, but before that, they aired on live video networks.
Many people think Americans are open, but in fact Americans in Europe and the United States are very conservative. Therefore, after the broadcast of Victoria's Secret, many citizens protested and people wanted to shut down the program. However, the U.S. broadcasting regulatory agency ruled
This program did not violate the regulations and was within acceptable limits.
Victoria's Secret is a relatively well-known online live broadcast in the past two years, but the live broadcast picture is very poor and the effect is not good. Moreover, once more people flooded into the website, the website began to freeze, making it unbearable for a while.
Before them, in 1996, a female college student set up a live broadcast room, and the live broadcast picture was even worse. Basically, one frame would only appear in a few seconds.
