Chapter 376 Live Broadcast

In the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

A lot has happened in the past month. First, Tianrui Entertainment announced that the release of "Inception" would be postponed due to technical problems.

Of course, this incident caused some ripples. Frankly speaking, if Lin Rui hadn't been the lead actor in this movie, it probably would have made even less of a splash.

Secondly, Tianrui Entertainment has established a new company, and its main project is still game development.

This is quite novel; an entertainment company suddenly venturing into the gaming industry is certainly a big leap.

However, considering the success of "PUBG", people in the gaming industry are still quite excited, especially since there are reports that Fusheng himself was involved in the production of this game and was fully responsible for writing the storyline.

Of course, since both of these matters are related to Lin Rui, they have sparked considerable discussion within a certain scope.

However, the last matter escalated directly to the level of relations between countries.

firearms!

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) has made people at home and abroad aware of the power of guns and cannons, but in essence, it is just a game and should be a fictional product. Even when Lin Rui used firearms props in The Last Battle, it did not cause much of a stir.

At least at that time, in the eyes of various countries, these so-called firearms were actually similar to magic in science fiction movies—just fictional things.

However, a while ago, a team of security personnel organized a target practice session in the field. Perhaps due to inadequate security measures or insufficient safety awareness, the sound of gunfire caught the attention of an outdoor livestreamer. The livestreamer then followed the sound of gunfire to the target practice location and filmed the shooting from a distance of more than 100 meters.

Although the streamer was quickly discovered by members of the security department and the live stream was stopped immediately, the problem was that at least tens of thousands of people were watching online at the time, and some busybodies recorded it and uploaded it to the internet.

Such sensational news immediately sparked heated discussions across the internet, and the spies planted by foreign capital in China also relayed the news back immediately.

And just like that, the whole thing immediately took an extremely absurd turn!

The firearms are real!

It is real and has the same destructive power as in the game!

What's even more critical is that China currently possesses this technology!

This is outrageous!

Ordinary people may not have considered the pros and cons in this regard, but that does not mean that the top leaders of various countries and their think tanks do not know how to weigh the pros and cons.

In a short time, various countries sent people to communicate with China, and at the same time organized a large number of scientific research talents to delve into the various data of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" in an attempt to analyze the manufacturing principle of firearms.

"I never expected this gun to be the real thing!"

"Yes, yes, I've heard that many countries have started to adopt 'PUBG' in order to replicate firearms through the game."

"I was wondering why I kept running into a bunch of teammates who just stood there and didn't move. I thought it was a lag issue, but it turns out they were researching guns."

"I heard that the first gun has already been produced in Luo Guo, but its design is rather peculiar."

"It just seems pretty outrageous. I never dreamed that something from a game would one day come into reality."

"Can't you think about it from a different perspective? Did the guns come first, and then the game?"

A few PUBG players who were teaming up to search for supplies were chatting when suddenly someone blurted out, "Damn, it's almost eight o'clock, Fu Shen is about to start his live stream."

"Damn! I almost forgot about this!"

"Fushen Live? How come I don't know about it?"

"Have you gone mad from playing games? Last week, Fu Shen said on Weibo that he would be doing a live stream tonight at 8 pm, supposedly for the game he developed."

"Really? A new game?"

"Brothers, I'm logging off now, you guys keep playing."

"Wait for me, let's go together!"

"I'm taking a break too, I'm going to watch the live stream."

…

A similar scene unfolded in countless PUBG groups. Pure gamers who had only played PUBG and didn't care much about the entertainment industry temporarily quit the game because of their teammates' communication and immediately went to download an app called "Xiazhou Voice".

They also wanted to see how amazing Fusheng, the creator of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds," would be with their newly developed game.

Many people were immediately taken aback when they entered the live stream.

Frankly speaking, they have dozens of live streaming apps on their computers and have watched countless live streams, but they've never witnessed such a magnificent scene!

Putting aside the bullet comments and other comments, the sheer number of people watching the live stream is staggering!

Even with the screen still black, there are nearly 10 billion people online, and they keep giving tips. Other people watch live streams and find it boring, but you guys are watching boredom as if it were live stream?

Even more outrageous, they saw several top domestic streamers leading their fans in a frenzy of comments, chanting slogans, but always ending with a promotional message for their own IDs.

With eight o'clock fast approaching, the countdown is almost over, and the number of people online is increasing, with many different languages ​​appearing, clearly indicating that they are from outside the region.

At 8:00 sharp, the live stream suddenly came to life.

The live stream scene resembled a game exhibition booth, with walls covered in various posters. The exquisite graphics and lifelike character images, along with the gun models displayed around the booth, immediately triggered a collective cheer from the onlookers!

Another shooting game!

Nowadays, guns and cannons have become a hot topic of discussion around the world, and anything related to guns and cannons becomes a top source of online buzz.

Currently, only China and Luoyang have the authority to speak on this topic; other countries are either still exploring or completely at a loss.

Of course, there is another entity that, while not at the national level, also has absolute authority, and that is Tianrui Entertainment.

This is the first game company to introduce the concept of firearms into games and to make firearms the central theme!

wrong!

Tianrui works for an entertainment company; they sing and make movies!

By the way, the music video for "The Final Battle" does feature guns and cannons. There are rumors that the reason "Inception" was delayed is because Tianrui planned to incorporate the concept of firearms into the movie. Of course, this is just a rumor and no one takes it seriously.

"Hello everyone, Tianrui Games Entertainment is currently developing a shooting game, and the progress is going well, but it will still be some time before it is released."

"Of course, this online press conference will also focus on promoting this game. I heard from Mr. Fusheng beforehand that there will be a surprise waiting for everyone, but I'll keep it a secret for now."

The host was actually Sima Yanran!

Sima Yanran was dressed quite exquisitely today, which made many of the viewers watching the live stream extremely excited!

Sima Yanran smiled slightly: "Now, please welcome Teacher Fusheng to the stage."

Lin Rui quickly appeared in front of the camera. After sitting down, he said, "This game is called Call of Duty: 1931. Of course, this is just a prologue to this version, mainly telling the story of the cause of this battle."

"Next up will be the 1937 version, which is of great significance as it will kick off the full-scale War of Resistance against Japan."

"The final version is 1945, which will also be the largest production, involving as many as 22 major battles, including some classic dungeons such as the Tunnel Warfare and the Hundred Regiments Offensive. These also require players to operate online, and it is extremely difficult to complete them offline independently."

"Of course, I'm not good at making empty promises. Let's take a look at the gameplay demo of Call of Duty: 1931 first. I hope you enjoy it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the live stream camera disappeared, and then the words "Tianrui Games Entertainment" appeared on the screen, along with a notification for a live gameplay demonstration.

These video-watching techniques are nothing new to gamers, but they felt that something was off about this particular demonstration.

Because after these words disappeared, the game scene appeared directly in the form of a cutscene!

And it's also a stage for traditional operas!

A stage?!

Before everyone could figure out the historical context, an extremely incongruous melody began to play.

Because this melody seems so out of place with the era in which this story is set.

Damn it?

Is this a mix-up? Did they play the wrong show?

Just as everyone was wondering, a line of text appeared on the screen.

Song: "Red-Clad Lament"

Singer: Li Mubai

Ren Hetai, who was drinking tea and looking at his phone, almost jumped up on the spot!

I knew it!

I knew it!

Pooh!

I know nothing!

Ren Hetai was almost going crazy at this moment. He had been able to stay at home with peace of mind because he knew that Lin Rui was doing a game live stream and not releasing a new song.

But now, Principal Ren is filled with regret!

Not wanting to lash out, Ren Hetai could only take his phone and walk to the balcony. Looking at the boundless night outside and the occasional cold wind blowing by, Ren Hetai gritted his teeth inwardly: "From now on, whenever this kid is live streaming, I absolutely cannot stay at home!"

Hearing the prelude, especially when the flute began, Ren Hetai's eyes flickered slightly: "Traditional Chinese style?"

wrong!

At that moment, Ren Hetai suddenly remembered something: this wasn't Lin Rui singing, but Li Mubai.

What kind of character is Li Mu Bai?

Peking Opera style!

At that moment, Ren Hetai subconsciously turned up the volume on his phone and stared intently at the screen. He knew that something exciting was about to happen!

Not only him, but in fact most people realized that when they saw the game's cutscene was a stage and the song was sung by Li Mubai, it was very likely a Peking Opera-style song.

As if to confirm these people's guesses, a subtitle appeared on the screen at this moment.
