Chapter 558: The interview across the ocean
Translator: 549690339
On this day, Chen Mo’s Experience Store had two special customers.
A blonde foreign girl was in front of the camera and said in English,””h.e.l.lo, everyone. I’m Denise, a reporter from tgnn. I believe that many of our viewers are wondering where I am. That’s right, we’ve crossed the ocean to the distant Eastern country, and we’ve come here for a pilgrimage. ”
“Of course, this term might be a little weird, but as long as you see the front door of this Experience Store, you should know what I mean by ‘pilgrimage’, right?”
“That’s right, this is the company that developed Dark Souls, Thunderbolt entertainment. I’m sure many of you have the same question as me-the experience store is only this big?”
“At first, I had the same question. Compared to other well-known companies like GA, this Experience Store was way too small. It was hard to imagine how many R & D personnel this Chinese company had.”
“But this only piqued my curiosity. I want to see who the designer of Dark Souls is. Alright, then please follow me to visit the designer of Dark Souls, sileng. ”
Said Denise as she walked toward the experience store.
She was followed by a staff member with a camera on his shoulder. He even took a few shots of the exterior of the experience store, such as the eye-catching statue of Arthas.
As she walked into the experience store, she did not forget to introduce the place to the camera.
“As you can see, this Experience Store isn’t that big, but the decorations are great. We can also see many familiar elements, like Warcraft, Diablo, Minecraft, and so on. ”
“Other than that, the popular League of Legends on the PC is also a product of Thunderbolt entertainment. Yes, perhaps many players didn’t notice? Dark Souls and League of Legends were made by the same game company. ”
“Also, there are a few games that most of the audience have never seen before. I’ve checked, and Thunderbolt entertainment hasn’t released any overseas versions of these games.”
“I have to say, after doing some research, I realized that Thunderbolt Entertainment’s local reputation in China far exceeds the International market. In China, many people even think that Thunderbolt entertainment is the best game company in terms of research and development,”
“On the other hand, slime is also very popular among the players. It can be said to be one of the most popular designers in China.”
“Of course, I know that many viewers, like me, only completely understood and liked this Chinese company after dark Souls. There must be many players who wanted to see what kind of person the designer of Dark Souls was. Then, please follow me into Thunderbolt entertainment. ”
Denise said as she walked in.
Obviously, the two foreigners ‘faces had attracted the attention of many players in the experience store. The man carrying the camera behind them was too conspicuous and couldn’t be kept a low profile.
However, the players in the experience store only nodded politely at Denise and didn’t try to strike up a conversation with her.
“h.e.l.lo,” su Jinyu greeted.”Is this Denise?”
Denise nodded and said in Chinese,””Yes. May I know how to address you?”
“I’m su Jinyu,”su Jinyu said. The manager is on the fourth floor. Do you guys want to meet the manager and start the interview or walk around the experience store first?”
“I’d like to take some shots in the experience store. Thank you for your hard work. ” Said Denise.
“Sure,” su Jinyu nodded.”No problem.”
Su Jinyu was a little surprised, because Denise’s Chinese was very good. Although she still had a slight accent, it was clear that she had no problem communicating with her.
What su Jinyu didn’t know was that tgnn had originally wanted to invite Chen Mo to America, but Chen Mo rejected them without even thinking.
The reason was simple. Chen Zhao didn’t want to go so far for an interview, and he wasn’t interested in the foreign culture …
Therefore, tgnn had a reporter come all the way to China for this talk show. In order to reduce communication barriers between the two sides, they even arranged for a reporter who was fluent in Chinese. After all, they didn’t know how good Chen Mo’s English was.
On the other hand, Denise was very happy because she was a loyal Dark Souls player. To have the opportunity to come to Thunderbolt entertainment and meet the designer of Dark Souls in person was like a vacation for her.
Under su Jinyu’s lead, Denise and the cameraman started to look around the experience store. She was clearly very interested in the entire Experience Store, even taking pictures of some of the smaller figurines, statues, and murals.
“Speaking of Warcraft, it’s a very successful RTS game with a very successful world setting, but why didn’t it have a sequel?”
“Ahem …” Su Jinyu coughed dryly.”Actually, I wanted to ask the same question as you … You’d better ask the manager yourself when you see him.”
After walking around the experience store and randomly interviewing a few players, Denise and su Jinyu arrived on the fourth floor.
Chen Mo was still working on something in front of his computer when he saw su Jinyu walking over with Denise.
“h.e.l.lo,” he said. Chen Mo reached out his hand.
Denise sized Chen Zhao up curiously and was a little surprised.””Is this the designer of Dark Souls? He’s much younger than I imagined!”
From the outside, Chen Zhao looked very energetic. He looked like he was only 25 or 26 years old. Of course, his actual age was even older than that.
“h.e.l.lo, I’m Denise, a reporter from tgnn.”
The two had already talked over the phone, and Chen Mo had agreed to the interview. After a few polite words, they went straight to the point. They went to a reception room on the fourth floor and sat on the sofa.
The interview officially began, and Denise was still a little excited.
“Alright, ladies and gentlemen and dark Souls players, I’m facing the designer of Dark Souls, Mr. Chen Mo, Mister deaf.”
“Come to think of it, you’ve been keeping a really low profile, Mr. Chen Mo. You’ve made so many successful games, but you’re still not well-known overseas. I can’t even get an interview with you. Dennis said with emotion.
Chen Zhao smiled.”Because I’m someone who’s afraid of trouble. I don’t like to go out often either.” To me, staying in the experience store and focusing on making games is the happiest thing. ”
