Chapter 437 Major breakthrough!
Time flies,
A month or two passed like this,
The download volume of "Zhi Ge" is still at the top of major charts.
Open the live broadcast platform every day, and there are still many people playing this game.
Offline martial arts schools also took the opportunity to advertise.
"Our school can also teach the same moves as "Zhi Ge"."
The game is still popular, but strangely,
The "expected reversal" in the players' minds never happened.
There is no hidden plot.
There were no unexpected developments.
There are no unexpected and bizarre side plots.
Everyone was fighting, and suddenly they found out:
"Huh? This game... is really like this?"
"It's a real fight, with everyone fighting, recruiting disciples, and competing in alliances."
"Why is Jingyue so honest this time?"
"I thought the next step would be to deal with foreign invasion and stop the war with force!"
"This game has that flavor, but it lacks that 'Wow, this is actually possible!'"
A number of “lost posts” soon appeared on the forum.
"Brothers, I am now the number one in Foshan, with more than 30 disciples, the leader of the alliance, and I fight different opponents every day.
But...that's it?
Is there really no follow-up?"
The highly praised reply also expressed agreement.
"Hahaha, don't even think about it, this time it's pure combat."
“‘Stop the War’ is unlike Jingyue’s previous works. It’s like a dish cooked to perfection, but lacks the aftertaste and nostalgia!”
"You think it's tea, with the top and bottom tones..."
"I feel like it's a truncated script, with only the action scenes left."
"Then I feel like it's a mosaic movie..."
For a time, the entire community's evaluation gradually converged:
"Oh well!"
"Since there really is no sequel, let's just treat it as a pure fighting e-sports game!"
"To be honest, this is pretty good. It's simple, direct, and exciting."
“Yes, I’ve been playing it for over a month, and I really think it’s the best game for me to relieve stress.
After work, I go home, turn on the camera, and then go to the martial arts gym for a fight. Knees, elbows, leg sweeps, and inch punches—you can hear the crackling of bones with every punch.
"No flashy special effects, no outrageous flying combos, just hard-hitting action."
In the forum,
Many kung fu movie fans, fighting trainees, and even boxing coaches in the gym are recommending this game.
"Other fighting games compete for show, but Zhi Ge competes for authenticity."
"It doesn't rely on special effects, floating, or combo determination, but rather on true routines, rhythm, and practical combat concepts."
"You can tell what kind of boxing style your opponent uses after you have a fight."
"That's enough."
Someone made a straightforward summary:
Zhi Ge is the game that is least like a Whale Leap by Whale Leap, but it is also the game that is most like a fighting game.
But some people are still itching:
"But do you really believe that Whale Leap can be a 'serious' fighting game?"
"Don't fool yourself! There must be a backup plan!"
"It just hasn't been triggered yet!"
But more players have slowly accepted reality:
"I waited two months and there was really nothing."
"You can accept it, this is Jingyue's e-sports transformation."
"It's okay if there's less plot. Pure fighting, punch to punch, is enough."
In such an atmosphere,
The preparations for the Jingyue E-sports competition zone are progressing steadily.
Venues, rules, broadcasting, and partners are all being implemented step by step.
There are even many people who participated in the formulation of the competition rules of "Zhi Ge" and the process of selecting players.
Other game projects are also beginning to be improved.
Lin Zhi also contacted many e-sports clubs to promote this matter.
Overall, it went very smoothly.
…
While the outside world was in turmoil, Lu Ming himself did not put too much energy into the e-sports competition area.
He knew very well in his heart,
This part has been handed over to a professional team. He only needs to focus on the overall direction and does not need to interfere in everything.
What he really focused on was the emotional value.
After this period of fermentation,
On the interface of the system emotion panel, a line of numbers finally began to jump quietly.
The emotional value once again exceeded 100,000.
This is the moment he has been waiting for.
【Do you want to redeem "Inspirational Echo"? 】
"confirm."
The light curtain flashed gently, and a familiar "tide feeling" came over me.
It was as if a hole was pried open in my mind, and thousands of fragments of inspiration poured in like falling stars.
Everyone in Whale Leap allowed themselves to be washed away by this inspiration.
Lu Ming slowly exhaled.
"call--"
That kind of refreshing feeling is like a downpour after a long drought.
"Sure enough, this is what I need."
Lu Ming looked at the project that he had been struggling with before.
"I finally have an idea for the Whale Falls fusion game project!"
…
One month after using Inspiration Echo,
The outside world seemed calm on the surface, but to Lu Ming, it was as if the hidden pieces on the chessboard were slowly emerging.
The effect of the echo of inspiration was more profound than he expected.
In the past month, he was almost in a state of "inspiration flowing".
Various ideas kept popping up in my head: project planning, cross-border cooperation, gameplay prototypes, integrated systems...
Those directions that once required repeated consideration now automatically fit into place like pieces of a puzzle.
At noon that day, Whale Leap was in Lu Ming's meeting room.
The sunlight came in obliquely, giving the entire table a light golden hue.
Lu Ming was leaning back in his chair, enjoying the sun.
The phone vibrated and the screen lit up. It was a message from Lao Zhao from Beishan.
The content is very concise.
【Development of "Homeward Journey Radio" completed, awaiting approval for launch】
Lu Ming's heart skipped a beat.
That’s great!
Beishan was just acquired this time, and it was a good time for collective use of inspiration echoes.
After all, the Homeward Journey Radio has been under development for several months.
It's summer vacation soon.
The development is completed at this time, which is really timely!
After hanging up the phone, Lu Ming hadn't recovered yet when Yao Wenqing received a second piece of good news.
The virtual gaming cabin has achieved a key breakthrough.
Overjoyed!
Lu Ming went directly to the whale watching laboratory.
Yao Wen had already prepared himself long ago. He took a deep breath and spoke quickly:
"Mr. Lu, we've been stuck on the neural link feedback delay for three months. Last night, the team finally reduced the delay to less than 2.3 milliseconds! This means that the virtual gaming cabin can complete all core testing before the end of the year!"
Lu Ming's breathing suddenly became heavier.
2.3 milliseconds.
This is almost the limit of acceptable interaction between the human brain and devices.
"Are you sure?"
Yao Wenqing said in a firm tone:
"Of course, Mr. Lu!"
"Our test prototype has passed 96 hours of continuous extreme stress testing and safety testing."
“So, I can guarantee that we will be able to produce the finished product before the end of the year!!”
"Then... Mr. Lu, before that, should we reveal this news? It's almost September, and it's not long until the end of the year. We can warm up a bit!"
"Warming up..."
Lu Ming murmured and repeated,
The researcher stared at the high-tech white cabin in the laboratory, and his blood boiled in his heart.
That is Whale Leap’s real trump card.
Once it comes out, it will no longer just be a "playing game" mode, but the entrance to a whole set of immersive entertainment experience.
The real “whale leap” of Whale Leap may come at the end of this year.
At this moment, all of Lu Ming's anxiety, waiting, and preparation finally turned into tangible gains.
The two lines actually emerged at the same time point.
Although the inspiration has ended, Lu Ming's mind is still sharp.
Lu Ming stared at the white cabin, and the light in his eyes gradually faded.
After the excitement, calm thoughts also emerged.
The news of whale fall cannot be announced first!
The Whalefall Virtual Cabin is Whaleleap’s trump card, something that can subvert the industry landscape.
If it is leaked in advance——
Regardless of the outside world's reaction,
Take our own products as an example.
What about Homeward Bound Radio?
Who would go play?
By then, all publicity points, media coverage, and player enthusiasm will be overturned by the news of the Whale Fall Virtual Cabin.
"Homeward Journey Radio", a new game, will immediately become a supporting role or even be marginalized.
Wouldn’t that chill the hearts of those people in Beishan?
