Chapter 12: Give Blue Star people a little bit of Earth shock
This thought flashed through her mind.
Shen Qinghan looked at the dark screen.
A long silence.
Even though Shen Qinghan knew this was a game CG.
Even though Shen Qinghan thought this was just a game plot.
However, the sight of those Soviet soldiers who did not stop their charge even when their entire bodies were set ablaze by gasoline still brought Shen Qinghan an incomparable sense of shock.
How could anyone possibly achieve such a feat?
To continue charging while one's whole body is engulfed in gasoline?
And what happens after the charge?
With flames of this intensity, even if they stopped to extinguish them, there would be little chance of survival.
Yet, under such circumstances.
These Soviet soldiers actually chose to charge.
Charging toward the Empire's army.
What gave them such determination, what allowed them to overcome the fear of death, even at the cost of perishing together with the enemy?
At this moment.
Shen Qinghan wanted more than anything to understand this game, the background of this game, and everything about it.
Blue Star has never experienced a world war.
There have only been localized, small-scale frictions, all kept within a controlled range.
Such a tragic and heroic plot.
Has simply never appeared on Blue Star.
Or rather.
People cannot imagine things that have never happened.
There are many games about the world after a war similar to this, including Zhao Ming's "Cyber Blue Star: 2077" and the "Ruined Future: 2100" copied by the Emperor Penguin side; both are games set in a post-war world.
Such games, perhaps due to innovation or gameplay.
Might become popular.
But the shock they brought was not as deep as the shock this game CG brought to Shen Qinghan.
Shen Qinghan took a deep breath and looked up at Zhao Ming:
"I will give you another thirty million."
"To what extent can this game be perfected?"
"The Third Empire, the Anglo-French Federation, the Soviet Federation, and all other background stories must be perfected."
At this moment, Shen Qinghan.
Wanted more than anything to understand what happened in that world.
Even if it was a virtual world created by Zhao Ming that did not exist at all.
But just based on this one game CG, Shen Qinghan knew.
This game would absolutely shock the world.
That was why she couldn't wait to have Zhao Ming pull out more things from his mind.
Zhao Ming was somewhat surprised; how could a game CG be viewed like this?
In reality.
What Zhao Ming did not know was... this kind of tragic plot, along with the will and determination of the Soviet soldiers, brought an impact far greater than Zhao Ming had imagined.
Because this would be Blue Star's first time facing the cruelty of war head-on; it was a shock to the soul.
Zhao Ming looked at the serious-looking Shen Qinghan, the system panel appearing before his eyes.
Looking at [Current Emotion Value: 145772].
Added to the previously redeemed data on the Normandy landings, these 140,000 points were enough to redeem the complete Normandy landing data.
However, looking at Shen Qinghan's appearance, she seemed to be attracted by Earth's World War II history.
Zhao Ming thought for a moment and said:
"The first game chapter, 'Normandy Landings', is basically finished."
"I originally intended to perfect the Empire's background story next."
"But if we want to perfect the background stories of other countries and federations, it makes no difference; it just means more lines need to be made for the immersive plot experience."
"It's a bit time-consuming."
"The money isn't really needed; just transfer ten million Federation Credits to the company account."
"Use the remaining twenty million for promotion and publicity to keep the heat on the game and the company."
"Maintain it until the 'Anti-War Competition' begins."
In fact, the computing power from the remaining one million-plus Federation Credits in the account was enough for Zhao Ming to render the entire set of World War II history.
It's just that rendering is rendering; the data still has to come from the system.
System data redemption requires emotion values; without maintaining the heat, there is no data to redeem, and the game cannot continue to be made.
So, he could only put effort into the promotion.
Seeing this, Shen Qinghan nodded:
"Fine."
After saying this, she picked up her phone and began to operate it.
Half a minute later.
"Done."
"I'll arrange the promotion; you don't need to worry about it."
"With these thirty million Federation Credits, make the game well."
Ding!
A notification sound came from Zhao Ming's phone, and the message box showed that thirty million Federation Credits had arrived.
She really has the resources.
Zhao Ming clicked his tongue, looked at Shen Qinghan, and guaranteed:
"No problem."
"I'll get right back to making it."
At this moment.
Zhao Ming also realized.
Shen Qinghan must have been shocked by the game CG.
Because he recalled.
On Blue Star, scenes that strike the soul like this seem rare, mainly because such things have never happened, and most movies or games are imagined by Blue Star players.
They might not be able to imagine what kind of will could make a person charge at the enemy army while burning in flames.
According to Zhao Ming's memory, in many movies or games the original body had seen, after such a federation or country was conquered.
The protagonists were always forced to retreat in such situations.
It was always a revenge story where they secretly swore revenge and returned years later.
There was simply no such sense of patriotism.
Since that's the case...
Zhao Ming thought he had found the direction.
If they cannot understand this patriotism, then he would bring the shock of this patriotism to Blue Star.
Once the game background is fully laid out.
It will definitely bring countless questions to many Blue Star people.
According to the Blue Star mindset, if a city is destroyed, then move the front.
Just wait until you develop enough to fight back.
Why protect it at all costs?
Moscow.
A city.
Why would it make hundreds of thousands of Soviet soldiers and civilians rush there one after another? What is there?
Even if parents are there, that's one reason.
But surely not the parents of millions of people are all there, right?
Perhaps Blue Star people cannot understand.
What is a "Tovarishch" (Comrade)?
Why, when a Soviet Federation officer shouts "Tovarishch", does everyone prepare to die?
The answer to all of this.
Zhao Ming prepared to put it into the game plot.
Let the Blue Star players find it themselves.
The system's database does not just have movie and game data.
It can also redeem the life history of every person; as long as there is enough time and enough emotion value, combined with the computing power of the photon supercomputer cluster.
Zhao Ming can completely recreate World War II on Blue Star.
Ensuring that every person is vivid.
This is something others and other games cannot do; after all, no matter how big their imagination is, they cannot create life history data for every game NPC and then let the photon supercomputer cluster calculate and control the NPC's subsequent behavior based on their life history.
But Zhao Ming can do it.
After seeing Shen Qinghan off, Zhao Ming went directly into a state of seclusion.
And Shen Qinghan mobilized all her power.
Starting to promote Polar Star Games.
Eight days before the start... seven days... five days... three days...
Emperor Penguin Company.
Game Department.
Bang!
The sound of Xu Huan slamming the table in a rage rang out:
"It's been on the trending list for a whole week, changing the trending keywords every day!"
"Damn it, is there no end to this?!"
"Just hard-core latching on?!"
"This Polar Star Games is like a dog-skin plaster!"
"Damn!!!"
End of Chapter
