After a while, Qiu Hengyang also arrived and sat next to Chen Mo.
The specific seats are all arranged by the organizer. Except for the leaders in the front row, the other seats are basically seated from front to back according to the level of the designers. When arranging the seats, the relationship between the designers is given priority.
Chen Mo and Qiu Hengyang are both A-level designers and they are familiar with each other, so they were directly arranged in the same row.
Qiu Hengyang introduced it to Chen Mo.
"Those in front are the leaders of the game committee, and you will inevitably deal with them in the future. You should get to know each other in advance. In the future, if the game needs to be reviewed or something, you have to let them hold their hands high."
"That Minister Zhang is in charge of the official app market."
"That Minister Liu is in charge of the Fantasy World editor."
Chen Mo remembered one by one, his head was a little big.
After introducing the leaders, Qiu Hengyang continued to introduce the designers behind.
"Over there are the three S-level designers of Dichao Interactive Entertainment, you know Qiu Jiang, and the other two are Yan Zhenyuan and Qin Xiao. These three have their own vr games, and Zen Interactive Entertainment... "
"That's Ran He, the designer of "Fire Assault", I met at the lecture yesterday..."
While Qiu Hengyang introduced, Chen Mo remembered, in fact, he didn't particularly care about these people, but it would be good to know a few more people, and it would be embarrassing if they didn't know their names when they met in the future.
There are not many S-level designers. After Qiu Hengyang introduced all the S-level designers and a few more powerful A-level designers, the time is almost up.
Chen Mo said with emotion: "There are so many talented people. I used to patronize myself to research and develop games, but it was only at this awards ceremony that I realized that there are many great people."
Qiu Hengyang nodded: "Of course, the top players in the entire domestic game circle are here, can it be lively?"
When the host came on stage, some designers who were whispering to each other immediately fell silent, and there was warm applause in the room.
The leaders have also been seated. These leaders are basically the ministers of the various departments of the gaming committee, and they are seated according to the positions that have been arranged long ago.
Chen Mo also noticed that Qiao Hua, who contacted him before, was a middle-aged man in his forties. He was very thin, elegant, and well-maintained. He was completely different from those middle-aged men with big bellies.
Zhang Zhongxiang, chairman of the gaming committee, delivered a speech.
This unanimous speech lasts ten minutes, and the content is no different from those of other leaders' speeches. It is nothing more than summarizing the achievements of last year, pointing out some shortcomings, and then putting forward plans for the development of the next year.
Soon, the speeches ended and the awards ceremony officially began.
Chen Mo could feel that this awards ceremony was not as serious as some science and technology awards ceremony, and the overall was relatively relaxed.
According to the process of the awards ceremony, the list of designers who have been included in the gaming committee and become honorary committee members this year will be announced first.
The host's speech was neither too fast nor too slow: "I announce that this year's list of honorary members of the game committee is: Li Feng, designer of "Wings of the Stars", Zhang Xiaokong, designer of "Three Kingdoms", "Legend of Wulin Heroes", " Chen Mo, the designer of Onmyoji, Zhu Fanglin, the designer of "Earth Shaking", and the designer of "Dream Sword"... Please come to the stage to accept the awards!"
Soon some staff found the positions of these people and guided them to the stage.
Every year, the Honorary Committee of the Gaming Committee will recruit ten designers. These designers are generally relatively young, and must develop a representative game within this year.
Obviously, except for Chen Mo, everyone else was very excited, and even walked a little bit smoothly.
The other designers below are all envious and jealous.
"Honorary committee member, that's amazing. This is equivalent to showing your face in front of the leaders of the gaming committee and obtaining an official status."
"How long has Li Feng been looking forward to this honorary committee member? He has been in the industry for seven or eight years, and there are quite a few blockbuster works. This year he was selected because of "Wings of the Protoss."
"Yeah, the main official considerations are many. It's not just that you can make money from the game, but also have a certain influence and professionalism. For example, "Di Sha Xing" used traditional cultural materials, so it was selected."
"But Chen Mo is an outlier! He just got promoted to B-level designer this year, so he jumped directly to A-level and got an honorary committee member?"
"Damn, are you compared to Chen Mo? That's a monster!"
"Yeah, in fact, when he made "Warcraft" and "The Legend of Wulin Heroes", he already had a wave of presence in front of the leaders of the game committee, and then "Onmyoji" came out. , this honorary committee is basically a certainty."
"You can do both western fantasy and martial arts, what a monster, I can't be envious."
Chen Mo followed the team to the stage, and the leader who was in charge of presenting the awards presented honorary certificates to several of them.
Honorary committee members do not have acceptance speeches, so after receiving certificates and taking photos, these people stepped down.
Qiu Hengyang asked: "How does it feel to be on stage?"
Chen Mo said, "I don't feel it."
Qiu Hengyan smiled: "Don't worry, this is just the beginning, and the main event is yet to come."
After the honorary certificates are awarded, various awards will be presented later.
Especially those A-level and S-level designers looked at the stage very nervously. After all, these awards are very important to them. This is equivalent to the official recognition and affirmation given to them after a busy year.
Soon, the first award was announced: Best Sound Effects.
The leader on the stage cleared his throat solemnly: "I announce that the game that won the best sound effects of the year is - "Fantasy Journey", designer Zhou Haibin!"
There was an instant burst of warm applause!
Zhou Haibin stood up excitedly, with an ecstatic and incredible expression on his face.
Qiu Hengyang was also applauding. He turned his head and said to Chen Mo: "This is an independent game. Zhou Haibin has a very high attainment in music. It is expected that he won this award. But as an independent game designer, he can do it well." It’s not easy at this level.”
Chen Mo also applauded. Indeed, a designer like this who truly regards games as art is worthy of respect.
Zhou Haibin came to the stage to accept the award, and then delivered his acceptance speech.
"Thank you, thank you. In fact, I did not expect to win this award, because I am making an independent game, which is very small, and the gameplay may not be so good. The only selling point is music and sound effects. Today this award means a lot to me. It is particularly important, because it is an affirmation of "Fantasy Journey" and a personal affirmation of me. I am very grateful to the leaders of the game committee and the players who have always supported me, thank you!"
There was another burst of applause.
Although peers are enemies, and game designers are inevitably intriguing, but independent game designers like Zhou Haibin are basically in a state of detachment, and they deserve this award. He is happy.
