Chapter 17 Part 1 Luhua Village And Luhua Aircraft Carrier

After clicking the start button, the cards in the book automatically disappeared, the Moe coins were also reduced to 458.

Just one night, he returned to the lower class again. However, after waiting for a while, he still didn’t see the developers coming out of their accommodations. Instead, a hole opened up on top of the main building just like the comic studio. Then a piece of paper was spat out from the hole.

Picking it up to have a close look, the paper was like an exam paper. It began with some selection questions. For example, the types of the game, the choices were: single player, online game. Then, the platforms of the game. The selections were: mobile, console, PC, etc...

The genres of the game, the selections were: RPG, Strategy games, Puzzle games, or Simulation games.

After about a dozen of selection questions, there were fill in the blank questions. For example, the name of the game, and the preferred game content. Selection questions were very easy, but when it got to the fill in the blank questions, if he wanted to produce a good game, he had to think carefully.

When he finally finished the fill in the blank questions, there were some optional questions such as the main plot line of the game, character settings, and the environment setting. Clearly, those questions were not for Zou Yu this type of amateurs. So he just let the developer team decide themselves.

The plan of the first game, that was worth commemorating, was completed by him while he was still in the state of confusion.

After all, he just wanted to check the quality of the games that were made by them. So he did not need to spend too much time thinking about it carefully. If the tier-one game they made was like NES (Nintendo Entertainment System) games, then in the future, he would avoid making any more tier-one game.

Playing old NES games was not a problem for him. Whenever he felt nostalgic about the good old days, he would play some NES games. However, if the new game was still in that kind of style, he really would not have any interests playing it.

In order to check the true competence level of the development team, Zhou Yu specially selected the singleplayer, farming simulation PC game, which was the type of games that would not trigger the military development team’s special effect.

The name of the game was set as Luhua Village. The environment of the game was based on the real Luhua village, and all the characters inside the game were also based on the real villagers who lived in the village.

The game content was similar to the normal farming simulation games, which was to cultivate plants, fishing, and mining. Coupled with some other hidden game elements such as collecting photos for the field guide. The game’s rough framework was like that.

After completing the entire paper, Zhou Yu put the paper back to the hole. As soon as the hoe on top of the building was closed, a green light was suddenly switched on. Then in the military marching song, the group of soldiers began to trot out of the staff accommodation and trotted into the main building.

It seemed like they were ready to develop the game. Above the building, a countdown timer appeared after all the soldiers got into the main building. The waiting time was 48 hours.

He would need to wait for two days.

..............................

The aircraft carrier was already completed. Its magnificent appearance made the children in the village constantly exclaim with admiration. They almost came to Zhou Yu’s yard every day to play with the toys he made. There was a small shed where he kept all the toys, although not every kid had one toy, they often passed the toys around, so everyone could get a chance to play.

Boys liked to play with the weapon toys, they chased each other around in the yard while holding the toys in their hands and shouting constantly, it often made themselves covered with sweat.

Girls, on the other hand, were attracted by the exquisite miniature building models. They would often find somewhere quiet and shady to play house games. The only problem was when their parents came over to take them back. It would often end up having many kids crying and refusing to leave.

Not only were they able to go swimming, but there were also many toys they could play with. No one was able to change the fact that Zhou Yu’s yard became a children’s paradise.

The paint on the aircraft carrier had already dried out. Zhou Hao, this naughty kid could not wait to see how it would look like when he put the carrier in the water. Based on what they had seen on TV, all the kids spontaneously hanged some colorful stripes on the aircraft carrier to simulate the warship launching ceremony. In fact, the small red flag in the middle was actually made by Zhou Hao this kid himself. It seemed like this boy had also put some effort into making it.

But what happened next surprised Zhou Yu even more.

But what happened next surprised Zhou Yu even more. After flags were hanged on the carrier, Zhou Hao and his friends suddenly ran out of the yard. Zhou Yu was confused at first, but then he did not really think too much about it. However, after a while, all the kids returned one by one while dressed in various types of the Chinese military uniform in different time periods in the past.Many old people in the village used to join the military, therefore, almost every family had a few sets of military uniforms.

‘So, they want to arrange a small launching ceremony by themselves. No wonder they ran away all of sudden... Must admit, those kids were really something else,’ Zhou Yu thought.

He Yuanyuan’s university was a drama academy, and what she had applied was a directing course. Although she had not started her course yet, when she saw what the kid was doing, her passion for directing began to burn brightly.

She immediately ran back home and took out the camera, preparing to record This “sacred moment”. The camera was also the reward that her parents gave to her. Originally she planned to take some videos about some landscapes of her hometown, but she did not expect that she would encounter such a great opportunity.

Zhou Shuyu applied the same academy and the same course as He Yuanyuan. So she also went home to take out her camera as well. Both of them went to Zhou Yu’s house quickly and began to take videos from different angles.

Their filming didn’t cause those kids to feel shy at all. Instead, it made those kids extremely excited as if they were injected with chicken blood. Under Zhou Hao’s skilled command, apart from some younger girls, many kids quickly formed a straight line. Their movements were neat and unified as if they had practiced it before. Tell you what, their postures were actually not bad at all.

Zhou Yu’s yard was quite big, however, there was nowhere they could lunch the aircraft carrier inside his yard. So they would need to change a place to lunch the carrier. As the “general military representative”, Zhou Hao first needed to come to “Luhua village Shipyard” to complete the handover ceremony.

“Comrade Zhou Yu, the general military representative Zhou Hao, is here to take over Luhua aircraft carrier!”

Seeing the serious face of Zhou Hao and hearing the serious speech he made, and he even saluted him after he finished, Zhou Yu could barely control himself not laughing.

“Brother Yu, say something, the cameras are recording us at the moment.”

‘Say what? What do you want me to say? You stupid kids did not even tell me anything about this,’ Zhou Yu gnashed his teeth and thought.

“The carrier Luhua is completed successfully, you may take it over and lunch it at any time,” Zhou Yu quickly said.

As soon as he finished, four kids, that were slightly older than others, walked toward the carrier and lifted it up together, and in Zhou Hao’s command, they began to slowly move toward the small river.

The loud noise that made during the launching ceremony also alerted other villagers as well. Many people came out to see what was going on. When they saw four kids were holding an aircraft carrier together, they immediately realized what happened. Seeing the finely crafted aircraft carrier and the realistic paintwork, many villagers gasped with amazement.

The thing about Zhou Shuyu sold the toys that were made by Zhou Yu was known to everyone in the village. Many villagers’ impression of Zhou Yu changed slightly because of that. As long as the kid had a skill, he would not be starved. But at the same time, everyone also wondered why the face of Zhou Hong – Zhou Yu’s father, was filled with disappointment, when he came back to the village with Zhou Yu.

With such a good skill, he still disappointed at his kid? Then how high of an expectation he had placed on his kid?
