A day later, the officially booked tickets were picked up from the ticket gate, and Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang went to Shanghai.

It's not too far from Jiangshi to Shanghai, and the high-speed rail is only about an hour's drive.

"Can we win the prize? I just read the comments on the Internet, and it seems that the demand for us to win the award is very high! Wang Yaliang in the back row leaned against Yang Chen and whispered.

"Most likely, the best idea may be in our pocket, and the rest is not clear, and there may not be much hope for the best indie game, because "Octopath Traveler" and "The Combination of Isaac" have a bit of a strong commercial flavor." Yang Chen thought for a while and said.

The game industry has developed so far, it's almost like a movie, it's not that you can win a prize if your game has high sales, if it's an award with player participation, it's a fight for who is more popular.

However, such as the Golden Bird Game Awards, which are more official, and the sales volume is just a reference, the Golden Bird Game Awards are more inclined to give the best indie game award method to some games with deep meaning.

To put it simply, it is the genre of literary movies in the movie, but also in order to attract the attention of players, the Golden Bird Game Award also has a most popular award for players to participate in, mainly to let players judge themselves.

It's more than the popularity of the manufacturer's game.

"That's it!" Listening to Yang Chen's words, Wang Yaliang showed a sudden expression.

chatted along the way, and the two arrived at the venue half an hour later.

Shanghai Grand Theatre, including some game and e-sports events, as well as celebrity concerts, drama performances, and some award events have been held here.

It has been five years since the Golden Bird Game Award chose the Shanghai Grand Theater as the venue for the award ceremony.

Unlike some other game awards, the Golden Bird Game Awards have some official flavors, and basically they are not invited, except for people in the game circle, and ordinary players will not be invited as audiences.

There were quite a lot of people in the theater, and some of them knew each other and said hello, but Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang were at a loss after they got their own brands.

If you don't know anyone, what should you do?

I said hello to the official in advance, and the seat numbers of Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang were made consecutively, and those who found the numbers were seated as two people.

However, to Yang Chen's surprise, there were still acquaintances next to his seat.

Lin Jiayi of Chang'an Studio, with Zhuo Qing.

When they saw Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang, the other party was obviously stunned for a moment.

"This is the first time we've met, right?" Lin Jia smiled and accosted, and at the same time introduced Zhuo Qing next to him.

Although the two of them have talked on the phone a few times, they have never seen each other in reality.

"Indeed." Yang Chen nodded, and also introduced Wang Yaliang.

"How did you come up with this approach in The Binding of Isaac? I feel like this kind of gameplay is almost like it was made for indie games, well, I mean indie games are perfect for this kind of gameplay. Lin Jiayi said with great interest.

"I dreamed about it." Yang Chen smiled and said very honestly.

"Well, I have a lot of ideas about games, and I dream about them." Lin Jiayi had a very happy expression on his face, as if he had met a confidant.

"But how did you come up with the idea of blending pixel style with modern techniques? It's a great try, I've tried it after seeing it, but it doesn't taste like that, and it feels very disagreeable. Lin Jiayi continued to ask.

"Actually, I saw it in a dream." Yang Chen told the truth very honestly.

However, the smile on Lin Jia's face froze.

The first time you said in a dream, I believed it?

The second time, are you still dreaming?

The development cycle of the two games is only a few months, do you dream of such awesomeness?

"Humph......"

Lin Jiayi didn't say anything, but when he entered the venue, a middle-aged man who was sitting behind Yang Chen just now couldn't help but snort as he listened to their conversation.

Although the voice was very soft, it was very close, and there was not much noise in the venue, so Yang Chen and the others still heard it very clearly, and turned their heads with a little doubt.

"Games are also an art, and they don't just need to be fun, but through the gameplay of the game, they show more core things, which is what gamers should do."

Yang Chen, Wang Yaliang: ?????

Listening to the other party's appearance of a person who came over, Yang Chen and Wang Yaliang looked confused.

Uncle, who are you? We know you?

"Okay, Lao Wang, what are you pretending? Lemon essence reincarnated? ”

Seeing that Lin Jiayi next to the other party obviously knew each other, he laughed and teased, and then introduced Yang Chen.

"My old classmate is now the chief producer of Jiasheng Games, but after so many years of making games, there are two games that have broken one million, and it took a year to accumulate." Lin Jiayi said politely.

"The business route I take is different from yours, and you can easily have millions or tens of millions of games for a game, and the development cost of a game for me is no more than one million at most. And how many game awards have you won? Wang Changan snorted again.

Listening to the mutual ridicule and ridicule of the two people, Yang Chen probably understood.

This Wang Changan is almost the same as the director who makes literary movies, and likes to engage in something profound in the game.

Video games are known as the ninth art, and along with the development of the industry, there are actually a lot of such similar game makers.

Although most gamers are not very interested in this kind of game, it does not mean that this game is really not profitable, it can only be said that it does not make much.

"The game is to make the player have fun, the real game, who will have the leisure to listen to your big truth? And many of the millions of sales of your games are still given away by Xijiayi, how many players can understand? ”

"Vulgar ......"

"You are elegant, then you don't make money, don't eat."

Lin Jiayi and Wang Changan next to him chatted and chatted, but basically Lin Jiayi was talking, and in the face of a more murderous problem, Wang Changan, who couldn't talk for a long time, just snorted and stopped talking.

"However, you're basically playing soy sauce today, "Time and Space" and "Time and Space Wheel" are not indie games, even if other game media say they are indie games." Wang Changan glanced at Lin Jiayi.

"Let's play soy sauce, let's play soy sauce, anyway, the sales of both games have exceeded 2 million recently." Lin Jia said with a smile.

"The idea of "Octopath Traveler" is very good, but the plot can be better, and "The Combination of Isaac" feels like there are many places that you haven't dug deeply, such as whether the monsters in the dungeon in "The Combination of Isaac" are the products of Isaac's mistreatment and fantasy, and why the final boss is Isaac himself." Too lazy to talk to Lin Jiayi, changing the topic Wang Changan said to Yang Chen regretfully.

Everyone else focused on Isaac's gameplay, but he focused on the story.

In this regard, Yang Chen could only smile perfunctorily, after all, the other party had no malicious intent, just said his opinion.

And Wang Yaliang next to him silently lowered his head and played with his mobile phone, saying that these had nothing to do with her.

A few people chatted, although there was no deep friendship before, Yang Chen could still feel that Wang Changan actually had no malicious intentions, but his speech was a little straight.

At this time, music suddenly sounded on all sides, and then the big screen lit up, and the game picture of one square after another was displayed, and the host appeared with a word card and microphone in his hand.

The scene also became quiet.

Yang Chen and Lin Jiayi, and Wang Changan also stopped communicating, and after a brief opening speech, the host directly stepped into the topic, and the squares on the big screen began to disappear continuously: "First of all, let's unveil today's first award, Best Drama Award......"
