Chen Mo nodded: "Well, I know that. However, there are very few horror games in China. For VR games, although horror games are not popular games, their sense of immersion is the best among all game types. Well, it can also fill in the gaps in the market a little bit.”
Qiao Hua pushed his glasses and fell into deep thought.
Chen Mo said again: "Mr. Qiao, this game must be rated. Just like "Diablo", adults must be able to play."
"Moreover, it is necessary to check the player's physical condition through the vr game cabin before entering the game. People with heart disease and similar diseases cannot play. The player's physiological indicators must be monitored throughout the game. Once the indicators are abnormal, immediately Disconnect."
"At present, there are some horror games on the VR side in foreign countries. The relevant settings and security measures are relatively complete. We will also follow this standard, and there will be no major problems."
Qiao Hua sighed lightly: "Yes, I know that. However, the current attitude of the gaming committee still does not encourage this kind of excessively bloody and violent games, because this kind of game has certain risks and may be harmful to people. There are subtle psychological effects."
"Of course, we all know that this kind of influence is actually very small, just like watching a horror movie, and no one will become psychotic or even kill or harm someone because of watching a horror movie. From my personal point of view, I think it can be done here Make some attempts on this side, but you have to come up with a set of rhetoric to convince Chairman Zhang."
Chen Mo thought for a while: "I have a way of saying it."
Qiao Hua became a little interested: "Let's hear it?"
Chen Mo briefly explained his thoughts.
After hearing this, Qiao Hua frowned and thought for a while: "It seems that it is okay. This is indeed a good reason, but whether it can convince Chairman Zhang is hard to say, but you can try it."
"Wait here, I'll go ask Chairman Zhang for instructions, and I'll call you later."
Qiao Hua walked out of the office quickly and went to look for Chairman Zhang Zhongxiang.
The situation in the parallel world is different from the situation in the previous life. The review of the game has been relaxed a lot. Moreover, the gaming committee has no absolute standards for which games can be reviewed and which ones cannot be reviewed. As for whether horror games such as "Escape" can be reviewed and whether they can be played by players, the chairman of the committee Zhang Zhongxiang still has to make a decision .
About half an hour later, Qiao Hua came back.
"Come with me, Chairman Zhang is waiting for you. You only have 20 minutes, so think about your words carefully. If you can't pass this time, you probably won't have a chance in the future." Qiao Hua said.
"I see, Minister Qiao." Chen Mo followed.
Qiao Hua led Chen Mo to the office of chairman Zhang Zhongxiang, knocked on the door and signaled Chen Mo to come in.
In the office, Zhang Zhongxiang was looking at this concept draft.
Seeing Chen Mo coming in, he pointed to the seat in front of the desk: "Sit."
Chen Mo sat down and carefully observed Zhang Zhongxiang's expression.
Zhang Zhongxiang frowned slightly, it seemed that he also had a lot of doubts about this concept draft.
Chen Mo stroked the virtual bracelet on his left wrist with his right hand, silently called out the props, and used them.
Zhang Zhongxiang coughed lightly, and said, "Chen Mo, I've finished reading your concept draft. This game is a horror game, and there are a lot of bloody and violent elements. According to the game committee's consistent attitude, this kind of game cannot It has been reviewed. Because in this highly immersive mental state, this kind of game will have a certain impact on the mental health of the players."
Chen Mo said: "Chairman Zhang, I don't think so. First of all, as an adult, the three views have already been formed, and a healthy person will experience horror movies, horror games and even haunted houses. Get a little scared."
"Currently in our country, horror movies and haunted houses exist, which shows that as long as the horror experience is well controlled, it will not be harmful."
"Currently foreign horror games have a very mature protection mechanism for players, and there are so many horror games abroad every year, and I have never heard of a player dying suddenly or being stimulated to cause harm to society. Therefore, this kind of The impact is actually not that serious. In other words, this impact is completely avoidable."
Zhang Zhongxiang frowned and said: "The main reason is that there is basically no healthy and positive content in horror games. It is difficult to convince those traditional and conservative members of the game committee."
Chen Mo asked back: "Then Chairman, do you think 'criticism' itself is a positive content?"
Zhang Zhongxiang was taken aback: "Criticism?"
Chen Mo nodded: "Yes, it's like essays criticizing some ugly facts."
Zhang Zhongxiang thought for a while: "It should be counted."
Chen Mo continued: ""Escape" has a spiritual core, and its spiritual core is criticism. In this game, the protagonist, as a reporter with a sense of justice, investigates a mental hospital and exposes the crimes involved. .”
"The psychiatric hospital is actually a place where terrorist experiments are controlled. These large foreign consortiums ignore the lives of patients for the sake of profit, wantonly trample on the law, and even have upper-level figures acting as umbrellas for them."
"The player will play the role of this righteous reporter and expose the criminal behavior under the control of the consortium. This in itself is a criticism of the ugly facts, and it is also an exposure of the seemingly beautiful false picture abroad."
Zhang Zhongxiang blinked, and suddenly felt that what Chen Mo said seemed to make sense.
Indeed, if the story background of "Escape" was placed in China, it would be impossible to pass the trial, without a doubt.
But what if it is placed abroad? It seems that this is indeed a kind of criticism and exposure.
Zhang Zhongxiang thought about it again: "But, this is a completely fictional story."
Chen Mo explained: "Chairman, art comes from life and is higher than life. In the history of the world, is there such a horrible act of genocide and extermination? The purgatory on earth shown in Auschwitz concentration camp is far more than this. What is shown in this game is even more terrifying. This concentration camp still exists, reminding people to always remember that I make a game to torture human nature. Isn’t this a positive and positive thing?”
Zhang Zhongxiang: "..."
He opened the design concept draft of "Escape" again, and read it from beginning to end.
After a long silence, Zhang Zhongxiang finally nodded: "Okay, this game has passed the review for the time being, but you must remember that the story background of the game must not be changed, and it must take place in a foreign country. Moreover, you must do a good job in the relevant settings of the VR equipment , to ensure that this game will not adversely affect players."
"If players strongly protest, this game will be taken off the shelves. If it causes serious social impact, you cannot be exempted from responsibility, understand?"
Chen Mo nodded: "Okay Chairman, I understand!"
