The PV for Chapter 150 has been released, sparking a frenzy across the internet.
Following the GJA Awards ceremony, Starcard, with two award-winning games, has transformed from a dark horse in the Chinese gaming industry into a pillar of significant influence.
In addition, Starcard also has China's first AAA title currently under development, which has whetted the appetite of the Chinese game industry.
If Starcard's "Black Myth: Wukong" is a huge success, then Starcard will become a game company standing at the top of the pyramid in China's game industry.
Furthermore, the joke spontaneously made by players, "Anything produced by Starcard is bound to be of high quality," will become a consensus among many.
However, it will still be some time before "Black Myth: Wukong" is officially launched. Before that, the Chinese gaming community is focusing its attention on the upcoming game PV for Star Card.
A game's promotional video (PV) is enough to reveal many problems.
Even those who aren't in the gaming industry, as long as they are experienced players who have played several AAA titles, can get a sense of whether the much-discussed "Black Myth: Wukong" is truly a AAA game based on the game PV released by Starcard.
Whether it's a masterpiece or a tool used by Star Card, a preliminary judgment can be made.
As time passed by, little by little.
Discussions about "Black Myth: Wukong" on the Chinese internet are increasing daily, and the closer the release date of the game's PV by Star Card gets, the more people are participating in this great discussion. Even some people who don't play games have heard of the game "Black Myth: Wukong".
Asking streamer Su Tao if she has any insider information has become a daily must-do activity in her live stream.
Su Tao wasn't exactly fed up, but she was certainly devastated and utterly broken.
Hangzhou, Xingka.
Chen Dong was in his office, his hands flying across the keyboard, designing a storyline for the upcoming game "Titanfall".
Just then, the head of the product development department five, who was in charge of developing "Black Myth: Wukong", knocked on the door and walked into Chen Dong's office.
"Mr. Chen," the supervisor's voice was soft, "the PV for 'Black Myth: Wukong' has been produced and polished. I've checked it several times, and it's the best we can achieve so far."
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong slowly stopped what he was doing, looked up at the head of the fifth department, and said, "In that case, put the game P..."
Send it to me, V.
"Yes."
Soon, the head of the five departments returned with a laptop.
The computer screen was lit up, displaying the game's promotional video. Chen Dong only needed to press the spacebar.
Seeing this, Chen Dong couldn't help but glance at the head of the five departments, not expecting that the other party would notice such a small detail.
pat.
A crisp tapping sound rang out.
The laptop on the desk immediately started playing the game's PV.
Following Chen Dong's suggestion, the five department heads chose the opening scene of the game, which is Sun Wukong fighting against the heavenly soldiers and generals and Yang Jian, and made it into the game's PV.
The latter half of the PV showcases some map images and landscape artwork.
This PV is not long, only a little over ten minutes long, but it took several weeks of effort from all the employees in Product Development Department 5 to barely produce it.
There was no way around it; the head of the fifth department was a mild perfectionist, and given the undeniable importance of this game's PV, he naturally had to give it 200% attention.
Before long, Chen Dong had finished watching all the PVs.
Under the slightly nervous gaze of the five department heads, Chen Dong slowly nodded and offered a word of praise.
"Excellent! The quality is almost unbelievable. I'm sure it will cause a huge stir when it's released on the internet tomorrow!"
Upon receiving Chen Dong's approval, the head of the fifth department immediately smiled with relief.
"In that case, I won't bother you any longer."
"Okay, let's get back to work." Chen Dong nodded and waved his hand.
That night, in Su Tao's live broadcast room.
"Sister Su, do you have any inside information to share with the brothers today?"
Once the broadcast begins, it becomes another daily essential in Su Tao's live stream.
This time, however, Su Tao hesitated for a second before refusing, and a hint of unease appeared on her face—
Emoji.
As an officially contracted streamer of StarCard, Su Tao had already seen the game PV produced by StarCard and was amazed. She found it hard to believe that this was a game produced by a domestic game company, but rather resembled the level of several established international game companies.
It wasn't until she watched it several times that Su Tao gradually believed the reality: the game was indeed created by Xingka.
However, Su Tao wasn't just watching for nothing. She needed to watch the game's PV with her viewers in the live stream tomorrow night and provide feedback during the process.
Therefore, Su Tao needs to familiarize herself with some of the evaluation criteria provided to her by the official Star Card team today.
Because Su Tao actually got inside information this time, she showed some awkwardness when faced with questions from viewers in the live stream.
Fortunately, the viewers in the live stream did not notice that Su Tao was different from usual, which made Su Tao breathe a sigh of relief.
However, upon seeing the viewers' anticipation and discussions about the game PV that Xingka would release tomorrow in the live stream chat, Su Tao couldn't help but wonder how the viewers in the live stream would react after seeing the game PV.
Wednesday, a day that seems ordinary yet is anything but.
It's ordinary because today is just a regular workday, not a holiday, payday, or any other special occasion.
What's unusual is that tonight at 3 PM is the release date for the PV of China's first AAA game.
When these two factors are combined, office workers suddenly feel that time is passing very slowly.
I don't know how many centuries passed in my mind before the clock slowly pointed to nine o'clock at night.
Meanwhile, the official accounts on all of StarCard's platforms released "Black Myth: Wukong" on time without the slightest delay.
The game's PV.
The game's promotional video quickly climbed to the top three on major trending search platforms in less than a minute after it was released.
Various news media outlets released their pre-written news articles, causing the popularity of "Black Myth: Wukong" to soar, and the entire internet seemed to be caught up in this carnival.
In Su Tao's live stream, the number of viewers once again exceeded 300,000.
If viewers don't set the barrage to display a quarter of the screen, all they'll see is a dense barrage of comments, and they won't see a single thing of the live stream.
In the opening of the PV for "Black Myth: Wukong", Chen Dong specifically asked the staff in charge to use the theme song of that classic TV series as the background music.
For most Chinese people, except for the very young generation, almost everyone's Pandora's box will immediately open upon hearing this music, unleashing countless memories.
He was a great hero who spanned hundreds of years of history, and also a stinky monkey with a hairy face and a thunderous mouth, the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Sun Wukong!
