Chapter 280: 【Celebrity Biography: Street Lamps and Gas Chambers】(4k)

The six major federations on Blue Star truly underestimated the war potential of "Earth"."

And they didn't expect that the war would develop like this."

Fighting and not fighting are ultimately different."

These battles that only exist in fantasy, and small-scale frictions, how could they be as ruthless as the fighting in 【2022】."

Starting from the 【World War II】 series, they were shocked beyond measure."

Training crazily."

Thinking they were used to the rhythm of war."

As a result, 【Modern Warfare】 not only stunned the people of "Earth", but the speed of the sweep and the atrocities in the war refreshed the worldview of Blue Star."

When they got used to 【Modern Warfare】."

When they started training for 【2022】, they realized that war is really getting more progressive and more cruel the more it is fought."

When 【2022】 first started, the tactics of the Russian Federation and the Ukraine Federation might have had the shadow of World War II because they hadn't fought for many years."

But after a few months of conflict between the two sides."

The battlefield situation began to change."

First, it was a war of attrition, a war of public opinion, even if the tactical value of 【Bakhmut】 was greatly reduced, no one retreated."

Because this represents the "political determination" of both sides."

It taught the soldiers of the six major Blue Star federations a lesson."

Watching countless lives fill this bottomless pit, just because both sides need political propaganda."

The impact this brought to the soldiers of the six major Blue Star federations was not small."

Immediately following was the appearance of drones."

And with the appearance of drones, they suddenly found that their previous training seemed to have no effect."

This drone thing... is too omnipotent."

The cost is also too cheap."

Who researched it?"

Armored tanks worth millions of dollars are exchanged by a drone costing hundreds or thousands of dollars in one charge."

There was no such tactic before."

Perhaps it was because the technology wasn't enough before."

But after fighting for a few months, it updated to this extent."

The soldiers of the six major Blue Star federations."

Also had to admire the creativity of the "Earth people"."

After all, they watched the whole process of this war from the initial Battle of 【Antonov Airport】, and the strength of the Russian Federation and the Ukraine Federation at that time."

It's no exaggeration to say they were evenly matched."

One side used decapitation tactics that only had miraculous effects in World War II."

One side had already fought to the capital Kiev, but it took 4 hours to mobilize troops."

But such a situation."

A few months later."

It has evolved into a drone war between the two sides."

The soldiers, tanks, and armored troops below, when encountering drones, can basically be judged as destroyed."

Because the six major Blue Star federations are all on the receiving end."

For a while, no effective tactics were discussed."

After all, dealing with drones requires high-tech equipment, and although Blue Star is not short of such equipment, it cannot be brought into the game."

But fortunately, the six major Blue Star federations asked Shen Qinghan about it."

Shen Qinghan replied that it would be promoted in stages, and now they are experiencing the plot of being targeted by drone tactics, and drone-related content will be opened later."

Having received such a reply, the six major federations accepted it."

Otherwise, according to this plot, there is really no way to fight."

They can only continue to train first, and then think about whether there are any good ways to reduce casualties when facing drones."

On the other side."

Polar Star Game Company, headquarters."

Inside the CEO's office."

Shen Qinghan and Zhao Ming were sitting on the sofa, Zhao Ming was looking through the company's revenue for this month, and Shen Qinghan was looking at the Federation Headlines and said: "Are you going to the 【Anti-War Competition】 award ceremony or am I?"

"It's expected that we didn't win the championship this year."

After all, we already won the championship last year, if we win continuously, I'm afraid people will say something about a dark curtain."

And the games participating this year."

Are also extended on the basis of the 【World War II】 series."

Two years."

For games with the same theme, it's too difficult to win the championship continuously."

But at least we made it into the top three."

For Polar Star, it's enough."

After all, the works participating this year are the same theme as last year."

Zhao Ming said: "You go."

"I have no interest."

"Need to study the next development direction."

Zhao Ming looked at the company's financial statements."

The 【Huaxia】 series of gourmet restaurants are making money."

The 【World War II】 series of Earth surroundings are making money."

And the game also brought a huge player base to Polar Star Company, plus the game platform, game forum, although the games are not charged."

But just relying on these huge bases, the peripherals brought, and the benefits of gourmet food."

It is enough to support Polar Star Company to survive forever."

Next, as long as we don't make trouble, keep updating the DLC, Polar Star Company can continue forever, and even become a top 100 enterprise in Blue Star."

But it seems there is nothing else to do."

Zhao Ming looked at the financial statements."

After all, as long as you update a DLC every once in a while, there is really no place to toss."

Zhao Ming thought for a moment and looked up at Shen Qinghan: "You say..."

"How is the movie market?"

Shen Qinghan was stunned, and then said: "The movie market is not small."

"But compared to games, it's a bit small."

"Why?"

"Do you want to start a film and television company?"

"What about the game aspects?"

Zhao Ming said: "I'm considering whether to make some special plot dungeons next, or develop the expansion of movies."

"Mainly the characters in 'Earth'."

"Many people's legendary experiences can be made into movies."

"And..."

"Playing games can only experience and contact the deeds that some celebrities have participated in."

"And movies can show the life of celebrities in 'Earth'."

"Can bring different impacts from many aspects."

"Most importantly."

"These plots have already been completed."

"Just need the photon supercomputer to render it, and then through editing, it can be completely presented."

"We have a complete plot library."

"Just pick some from it, render them, and you can harvest a lot of feedback and praise from the audience, of course... there is also a possibility of being sprayed as a bad movie."

Zhao Ming said with a smile."

But Shen Qinghan took a slight breath."

No other reason."

This method is really feasible."

The computing power of the photon supercomputer on Blue Star is rampant, and it can render any plot at will."

But the plot movies rendered by individuals are mostly crude."

That is, the picture is passable, but the plot is a mess, personal appreciation is barely watchable, and no one watches it when taken outside."

Because everyone can render, if the plot cannot attract people, who will watch your movie."

That's why Shen Qinghan said the movie market is small."

Because in this era where everyone can make movies, only movies rendered after geniuses or teams carefully produce plots can be accepted by the public."

And this also led to the high threshold and small quantity of the movie industry."

Although Blue Star has a large population."

But not everyone has the leisure to carefully carve the script, the photon supercomputer is auxiliary after all, although one sentence can be expanded into ten sentences, barely retaining the original meaning."

But when it expands to a hundred sentences, a thousand sentences, it has already changed beyond recognition."

So the movies on the market are almost all produced by teams, and a small number of personal movies are also carefully polished and rendered by some geniuses."

But Polar Star is here."

There is no such cumbersome procedure at all."

Because from the plot of the 【Huaxia】 series starting from the Qin Dynasty, to the later versions of Han, Three Kingdoms, Sui and Tang... etc."

These can find countless characters to show individual deeds."

Integrating the lives of some popular historical figures into a movie or biography only requires editing to complete the production."

Not to mention the historical celebrities in 【World War II】."

Blue Star players in the past contacted them through the plot, or short CGs, to understand the highlight moments of those characters."

But what if you watch their experiences completely?"

Showing the lives of those celebrities, from childhood dreams, suffering, to confusion and struggle in youth, then to World War I, World War II, until the end of the hero, etc."

Hiss—"

The more Shen Qinghan thought about it, the more she felt the feasibility of this movie."

Because unlike others or teams, which need careful polishing."

If Polar Star wants to make a movie, the script is in "Earth", just pick out the data of any person and render the past."

And with the current computing power of the photon supercomputer."

As long as Zhao Ming selects the tasks to be rendered and calls the data of the relevant characters' lives, he can render as many as he wants."

Batch rendering."

For the kind of individual careful polishing and team, it is a dimensionality reduction strike existence."

After all, there is no precedent for this yet."

And the player stickiness of other games is not as high as the 【World War II】 series, but if you do this, other large games will probably imitate it."

After all, they all have a complete worldview, and they didn't think in that direction before, and didn't refine the lives of NPCs."

Starting last year."

There was Polar Star Company, a game company that completely rendered even the lives of ordinary NPC residents."

It also made many people pay attention."

Because currently on Blue Star, like the 【World War II】 series, games where every NPC life has a detailed process are unique."

Other companies have paid attention."

But it is also refining some important NPCs."

And if Polar Star's movies really get started, there will definitely be a lot of imitation."

Then the first batch will have to produce a lot of character movies and biographies."

Shen Qinghan became more and more excited and asked: "Do you have a plan?"

"Which ones are you going to render first?"

Zhao Ming said: "That must be the heads of state of various countries in the 【World War II】 series."

"Or biographies of some famous generals."

"For example."

"The three famous generals of the Empire."

"Manstein, Guderian, Rommel, we only contacted them from the player's perspective in the previous plot."

"If rendered into a personal biography."

"Players can see the inner activities, choices, and the end of this character when commanding a well-known battle."

"These are all perspectives that players have not experienced."

"And it is also a complete display of a flesh-and-blood 'character'."

"No longer the high-ranking famous general in the plot."

"Players will find that they also have troubles, and they also have times when they are hesitant."

"This will make the characters in the plot more three-dimensional."

"For example again."

"The president of the American Federation, the one who traversed World War II."

"Players only felt the power of the American Federation from the American Federation at that time, and didn't know that the president of the American Federation at that time was also a ruthless character."

Hearing this."

Shen Qinghan became interested: "How ruthless?"

According to her understanding of the World War II plot, the heads of state of various countries in the world at that time seemed to be very powerful, whether it was the Empire's, the Soviet Federation's, or the British Commonwealth's..."

But it seems that the one from the American Federation was ignored."

Thinking about it now."

It seems that the president of the American Federation at that time was also very powerful."

After all, he was standing in the C position at that time."

How could such a "plot character" not be a simple person."

Zhao Ming touched his chin: "You read the financial report of Polar Star Company, right?"

"The tax law of Daxia Federation is also reasonable, right?"

"But do you know that at that time, the American Federation in the plot, to what extent did it collect taxes on those ladies?"

Shen Qinghan was stunned and said: "Um... 49%?"

It's almost half, can't it exceed half?"

Zhao Ming shook his head and said with a smile: "Turn it over."

Shen Qinghan was stunned, and then widened her eyes:"

"94%?"

"Hiss—"

"Really?"

"Will anyone pay taxes like this?"

"Aren't you afraid of rebellion?"

She thought 49% was already a lot, almost half, but Zhao Ming said 94%!"

94% of profits are handed over, and the remaining 6% probably all need to pay wages."

Working for nothing?"

Will anyone really do this?"

This time."

Shen Qinghan was really interested in that American Federation president."

Especially his life experience and his methods."

Zhao Ming said: "Of course not afraid."

"Because of the world environment at that time."

"Either be sent to the Empire's gas chamber, or be hung on the Soviet Federation's street lamp, you compare it like this."

"The American Federation at least lets you live."

"Looking at it this way."

"Is it very good to collect 94% of your taxes?"

Shen Qinghan's mouth twitched."

Indeed."

Compared to being sent to a gas chamber and hung on a street lamp, although 94% of taxes were paid, at least they were still alive... it's just... Shen Qinghan thought of something: "Speaking of which."

"I remember he seemed to have died before World War II ended?"

"Could it be..."

Zhao Ming shook his head: "That's not it."

"It's just normal birth, old age, sickness, and death."

"After all, he was already in a wheelchair, and his illness was sudden."

"However, the Roosevelt family was basically suppressed later."

Shen Qinghan nodded."

This is understandable, who made the situation of World War II special, both sides are dead, only the American Federation can live, no matter how you clean up, you have to accept it."

But the war is over..."

The power of money is also terrible."

Standing from Shen Qinghan's perspective, she could endure accepting 94% tax when her name was at stake, but once she eased up."

No threat to life."

Then..."

I'm afraid she's not the only one who thinks so."

Other guys who were taxed 94% are probably thinking the same thing."

After all, no one wants an ancestor on their head."

Shen Qinghan said: "You organize it first."

"What about the special plot dungeon?"
