"ah?"
Lu Zhixing was momentarily confused.
Lu Yixiao, who accidentally grabbed the conversation, was a little embarrassed: "Brother Lu, what did you want to say just now? You say it first."
Lu Zhixing quickly shook his head: "No, no, no, tell me first, why did the anchor film this person?"
Lu Yixiao searched on the computer and quickly found a video.
"That's this video. You all know Xu Jing, right? She's a well-known anchor in the game area. This is the picture she took when she went jogging in Longtan Park that day.
"At the time, she and her fans didn't pay much attention to it, thinking that this person was just a performer of performance art. But after "Zen" became popular, netizens turned into detectives one after another and discovered that this person was probably the artist of "Zen" maker!"
Liu Bo looked at the screen in confusion.
In the video, Xu Jing used her mobile phone camera to clearly capture this person: in the dim light, he stood in the tree pit, posing like a tree, occasionally swaying gently with the breeze.
Xu Jing also said a few words to him during this period, but he remained unmoved and showed no reaction.
Liu Bo was puzzled: "Why is he the producer of "Zen"? You can't force two people to be connected because they are mentally abnormal, right?"
The corners of Lu Zhixing's mouth twitched slightly: Are you polite?
Lu Yixiao quickly waved his hand and explained: "No, no, no, it's not just that, there are many clues as evidence.
“First, this stranger is located in Jinghai City.
“Second, Xu Jing’s live broadcast was recorded on Friday night, and the game officially appeared on the official platform on Saturday morning.
"Third, someone has verified that the stone bridge in the game "Zen" is in the old town of Jinghai City, not very far from Longtan Park.
"Fourth, the performance art this person does is obviously cosplaying a big tree! And the second chapter in "Zen" is a 'big tree simulator'. Even the gameplay of swinging in the wind is very similar to this person's cosplay. .
"If all these things are put together, can it still be said to be a coincidence? This person is probably the producer of "Zen"!"
Liu Bo suddenly said: "That's it! It's really suspicious to say so!"
They watched the man in the video attentively, and saw that he was wrapped up quite tightly, with a black mask, a peaked cap, and a sweatshirt hood, making him fully armed.
Only two eyes are exposed.
"This man seems to be quite young. Although I can't see his face, I think he looks quite handsome."
"Well, it's a pity that he's just not in his right mind."
"Hey, that's weird. Why does it look familiar the more I look at it?"
The two were lost in thought.
Lu Zhixing silently reached into his pocket and stuffed the black mask inside to eliminate the possibility of accidentally falling out.
Fortunately, that sweatshirt was rather shabby and he didn't wear it often, only when he was helping out at the Internet cafe. Otherwise, I might have to die in the dormitory club today.
Why is this Xu Jing’s live video a boomerang?
Lu Zhixing went to watch it before. Xu Jing's live broadcast replay did not cause much response. It was only spread among her fans on a small scale, so she thought the crisis had passed.
Maybe after a while, everyone will forget about this matter.
But I never expected that with the popularity of "Zen", this video would be discovered again!
What to do?
"By the way, Brother Lu, what did you want to say just now?"
Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao both looked at him.
Lu Zhixing was speechless for a moment: "I just wanted to say... Oh... I want to say, I have actually heard about this matter, but I think there is no need to pay attention to it. The popularity of such a garbage game is all because of luck. It is definitely a success that cannot be copied! So we don’t need to belittle ourselves, and there is no need to take it to heart! Well, that’s it.
"Okay, it's time, let's go to class quickly!"
After saying that, he took the professional course textbooks, pushed Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao out of the dormitory, then locked the door and went straight to the elevator.
Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao were a little surprised: "Brother Lu, what's going on?"
…
At 9:50, the three of them arrived at the professional classroom on time.
This is a large lecture theater, and most of the seats are occupied.
This class is "Overview of Basic Theory of Game Design". As you can see from the name, it is a very basic and theoretical course.
The professor teaching the class is called He Cheng. It is said that he is a gold medal producer who retired from a large company. He has been responsible for the design of many excellent games. Not only does he have good connections in the gaming industry, but he has also achieved financial freedom long ago.
The School of Game Design of Keihai University hired him as a professor mainly to strengthen the faculty of the school and also to enable students to better integrate with society.
According to reliable information from senior students, although Professor He Cheng appears to be amiable on the surface, he is actually very demanding and quite strict, so no one dares to skip class.
Lu Zhixing and the other three glanced at the "prime seat" in the last row. Sure enough, it was already occupied.
Zhao Haoyan was not seen.
"Hey, Lao Zhao must have arrived quite early. He didn't even get a seat? Well, it's not impossible for him to be in the last few rows."
The three people's eyes moved forward again. As a result, they still could not see Zhao Haoyan until they reached the middle of the lecture hall.
"What's going on? Is the competition so fierce?"
The entire lecture theater is almost full, with only the first three rows still available. Obviously this seat is too close to the professor, and most students don't want to sit here.
The question is, where is Zhao Haoyan?
Just when the three of them were a little confused, they heard someone calling them: "Brother Lu! Liu Bo! Mr. Lu! This way!"
The three of them turned around and saw that Zhao Haoyan was sitting in the first row waving to them.
In the middle of the first row, which most students were afraid to avoid, Zhao Haoyan spread out several books, occupying a seat that was not really needed, and looked like he was asking for credit.
The corner of Liu Bo's mouth twitched slightly: "Is this how you occupy your seat?"
Zhao Haoyan nodded: "Yes, isn't this an excellent location?"
What a great location!
After entering college, most students completed the transformation from academic masters to bastards at light speed, so Lu Zhixing, Liu Bo and others ignored that there were always some upright boys who did not have time to change, such as Zhao Haoyan.
But now there is no other choice, because the other positions have already been occupied.
"It's okay, just sit here. Maybe it will be safer in the dark." Lu Zhixing himself didn't care, but seeing Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao's stiff expressions, he had no choice but to comfort them.
Liu Bo and Lu Yixiao looked at each other and had no other choice but to sit down separately.
I have to make it clear to Lao Zhao next time that if I occupy a seat, I will occupy the last row! It is comfortable to go to class and convenient to leave after class. They are all in college, how can anyone still sit in the first row in class?
Soon, the school bell rang.
A professor who looked to be in his sixties came up to the podium. He was the professor of this class, He Cheng.
Professor He's hair is only half white. He seems to be in good spirits and smiling cheerfully.
But this smile is most likely a disguise.
When it comes to university professors, you must not judge them by their appearance. The more smiling they are, the more likely they are to make surprise attacks. On the contrary, those who appear to be stricter are more likely to be merciful and let their classmates go.
Someone had already inquired among the senior students before that Professor He had very strict requirements for professional courses, and what was even worse was that he did not follow routines in his lectures.
He often asks questions on a whim that are far beyond the current level of his classmates, or assigns some assignments that are far beyond their current level, causing senior students to suffer.
"Okay, students, please be quiet. We are starting class."
Professor He Cheng first gave a brief self-introduction, talking about his resume and masterpieces. In short, it was indeed the same as the information he had found before. The introduction in four words was: awesome and booming.
There is a saying: For most students, the professors they come into contact with in college may be the most awesome people in their major they will come into contact with in their lifetime. There is indeed nothing wrong with this statement.
Then there is the normal course content.
The name of this class is "Overview of the Basic Theory of Game Design", so Professor He just started talking about some basic design theories. However, during the course of the lecture, he also cited many cases of well-known games. Some of the industry insider information he knows is quite convincing.
It seems that this professor does have something.
Lu Zhixing listened carefully. Although these are basic theories and may not be directly applied to game design, as a self-taught dog planner in his previous life, it was these basic theories that he lacked.
As he was talking, Professor He Cheng suddenly changed the topic and asked a question.
"An independent game has become popular in the past two days, called "Zen". Has anyone played it?
"Come on, this tall classmate sitting in the first row, please answer."
Zhao Haoyan looked confused: "Me?"
Professor He Cheng nodded: "Yes, it's you."
Zhao Haoyan stood up blankly, a little embarrassed: "Professor, I, I have never played this game..."
Professor He Cheng's face instantly dropped: "Never played? What are you doing on weekends?
"As a student majoring in game design, I don't require you to study on weekends, read professional books, or write design drafts, but you still need to experience some of the latest games, right?
“If you don’t even play the latest games and don’t understand the latest trends in the game industry, how can you make games by yourself in the future?
"Sit down!"
Seeing Professor He Cheng's sudden change of expression, other students who had never played this game also took a breath.
It is indeed a smiling tiger!
He was always friendly before, but once a student made him feel dissatisfied, he immediately became sullen.
It's no wonder that the senior students are afraid of him. During lectures, he will randomly ask people to answer questions that are not in the book. The requirements are also very strict. This is simply a ghost-level figure!
They all shrank their necks and secretly prayed that the professor would never point to them.
As for Liu Bo, he snickered: Oh, retribution in this world!
Old Zhao, Old Zhao, who allowed you to occupy the first row without saying a word? You're such a stupid guy. You're half a head taller than everyone else when you're sitting. How can you not become the professor's target when you're so obvious?
However, he was obviously happy too early. He only heard Professor He Cheng say: "Then the classmate next to the tall guy, please answer it."
Liu Bo: "?"
He looked up and found the aisle to Zhao Haoyan's left.
And on the right is himself.
