Chapter 88 You Don’t Need to Learn Those Useless Things
Zhou Yizhou rubbed his forehead.
He felt as if the pressure above his head was about to crush him.
“So… a music game without music”
He repeated his question uncertainly; everything before him seemed a little out of place.
But even so, he could only nod silently.
"Okay, Mr. Lu, since you said so, I'll give it a try."
Sun Qianli, Wang Hao, and Gong Min's eyes flickered.
As they listened to these words, they gradually became excited.
Mr. Lu's vision is indeed extraordinary!
This is the opportunity they dream of.
It may break the routine of music games and become a new trend!
In the future, we can even challenge the entire music game market and become a new benchmark!
Moreover, Lu Ming's words "I believe in your ability" made them feel so excited that their hearts were beating fast.
This kind of encouragement simply gives them the greatest motivation!
They quickly turned around and looked at Zhou Yizhou, their faces full of anticipation.
His eyes were almost filled with the words "Teacher, take us to fly."
Zhou Yizhou sighed helplessly.
Lu Ming's combination of "I leave it to you" and "I trust you" left him without any chance of fighting back.
You believe me
I don’t even believe in myself!
Zhou Yizhou felt as if he had become a success guru personally cultivated by Lu Ming.
"Alright, alright. Let's go first and talk about it when we get back."
…
The four of them walked out of the hotel conference room in silence.
The bad news is that they were not allowed to attend tomorrow's award ceremony and still failed to be shortlisted!
The good news is that now I’m an internal employee, so I don’t need to attend this ceremony!
The corridor was softly lit and covered with thick carpet. Every step felt like stepping on cotton. It was extremely quiet.
No one spoke.
Gong Min couldn't stand it anymore and asked quietly,
"Um...Mr. Zhou, are we officially employed?"
When Zhou Yizhou heard this, the muscles on his face twitched again.
The teacher has been called, so how can it not count?
“…Forget it.”
"Although we haven't even signed a formal contract, once Mr. Lu opens his mouth, it's a fait accompli."
"But don't worry too much."
"We at Jingyue will not treat people unfairly. We will provide them with the necessary training, benefits, and project teams."
"Then Teacher Zhou, when do we leave? The awards ceremony will be tomorrow, do we need to wait and see?"
"No, we're leaving tonight. Mr. Lu has already bought the tickets for us!"
"He also specifically emphasized that with your potential, there's no need to learn useless things!"
…
October 10th, 4 p.m.
The sun is shining brightly in Shanghai, and the wind is not strong, but there is an inexplicable restlessness in the air.
The "Independent Game Selection Conference" that DeepBlue Game Platform has been preparing for a long time has officially begun today!
There was a crowd outside the venue, with banners hanging high.
On the background board, the logos of each entry scrolled in turn under the lights.
"Wow, they're actually live streaming the entire thing!"
"Look, the livestreaming room has already been open! There are tens of thousands of people waiting for reservations alone!"
"I took a quick look before I came here, and the top spot on the popularity charts is still 'Sky Stairs'! I didn't expect the veteran team to make a comeback!"
"Deep Blue's event this time is pretty good. It's quite a big deal!"
"It's here! It's the badly reviewed T-shirt. Where can I buy the same one?"
Entrance to the venue.
People with "developer passes" lined up to scan their faces to enter.
Some people gather in groups of three or five, some walk alone, some wave at the camera, and some look socially anxious.
At the VIP entrance on one side,
Staff members wearing work clothes are guiding the judges, sponsors and media personnel into the venue one by one.
“It’s really lively.”
Backstage VIP lounge area.
While drinking water, Lu Ming sighed to Lin Xiaoxiao beside him.
"Since this morning, there have been players waiting outside for autographs and photos!"
Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the meeting group report on her phone,
"We also contacted the medical team, fearing that something might have happened."
Lu Ming nodded and said nothing.
He is at ease when Xiaoxiao does things!
…
At six o'clock sharp, the host came on stage.
"Good evening, fellow players and developers!"
"Welcome to the DeepBlue Game Platform Independent Game Festival!"
"Whether you're a developer, player, or supporter, we thank you because you make this industry more interesting, more real, and more beautiful!"
“…”
There was thunderous applause.
The flashbulbs kept flashing.
The judges area on the stage.
Chu Feng, Lao Pi and Wan Lai Feng were discussing various voting results.
"I vote for 'The Rabbit Wants to Run'. Although the idea is simple, the execution is very restrained."
Lao Pi flipped through the tablet and nodded.
"I still prefer Breakpoint Restart. Its plot and interactive structure really moved me a little."
The evening breeze frowned and spoke with a little hesitation.
"But the last chapter is a bit slow."
"Don't you think Forest Traveler is quite new?"
Chu Feng interrupted,
"That game used the Riddler as a mechanic, and while it felt a bit forced later on, the concept was pretty good."
Several people held different opinions, and the atmosphere was not tense, but there were obvious differences.
In addition to these people, other judges also gave their reasons and works for voting.
The staff kept recording and calculating.
Then, with the host’s introduction, the award ceremony officially began.
The awards will be made based on the final total number of votes.
Every time an award was announced, cheers erupted from the audience.
There was applause from the audience as the awards were announced one by one.
Game with the highest overall score: "Sky Stairs"
Second: "All Rabbits Want to Run", "Breakpoint Restart"...
Third: "Long Dream Syndrome", "Codename: Decibel"...
The trophies were raised one after another, and the development team rushed to the stage excitedly.
The audience applauded and the live broadcast room was flooded with messages.
"It's well-deserved! The art of Sky Stairs is truly amazing!"
"Oh my god! I gave it to that puzzle game!"
…
In the lounge, Lu Ming watched the award ceremony on the stage indifferently.
He even yawned.
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at him secretly and asked in a low voice,
"Mr. Lu, why do you seem... not very interested?"
"Um."
Lu Ming nodded slightly, put the mineral water bottle in his hand on the table, and his eyes drifted into the distance.
“Those games are doing pretty well.”
"But I've found what I want."
Lin Xiaoxiao was stunned and didn't dare to ask more questions.
…
In Qiantang, in the office where the war was raging, Zhou Yizhou also took the time to watch the live broadcast.
He folded his arms, leaning against the water dispenser, a "why the hell is this so hard for me" expression on his face.
"The winner is the 'Sky Stairs' team!"
There was thunderous applause, and on the live broadcast, the developers were crying with joy.
He also received a 2 million yuan bonus from Deep Blue on the spot.
He took a look at the award winners and they seemed quite young, about the same age as the three people he brought back.
"well."
Zhou Yizhou sighed.
It’s not that he looks down on this group of people, but he really admires them from the bottom of his heart.
They can make games normally, do well, and even win awards, so they obviously have a bright future.
And what about myself?
Zhou Yizhou looked at the group of developers with bright smiles on the screen and shook his head slightly.
He looked down at the paper cup in his hand and saw that the coffee had already gone cold.
It’s not that he doesn’t have dreams, it’s just that...right now, all his dreams are focused on “Time Journey”!
