Chapter 424: 423. A Unique Form_1
“A unique form?”
Lu Ban read the task requirents, feeling sowhat puzzled.
Did that an he couldn’t use the common movie format?
He hadn’t checked the materials on the computer yet and had no clues for the mont.
“If a regular movie won’t do, how about a 4D movie?”
Thinking about those films where seats shake and spray water and air, Lu Ban felt this probably wasn’t what Silent Lands needed.
This project must be more imrsive, able to draw people in even more.
“This at tastes so-so, not as good as the little hot pot place behind the street.”
Qin Tiantian picked up a piece of spicy marinated beef tumbling in the pot, eating and comnting at the sa ti.
After thinking for a mont, Lu Ban wrote the words “delicious” on one of the slices of beef she had picked up, and hastily placed it into Qin Tiantian’s bowl.
“Try it again?”
“?”
Qin Tiantian naturally couldn’t see the pen in Lu Ban’s hand; she just felt that he was being rather bizarre, perhaps his condition had worsened.
Skeptically, she ate a piece of beef, her eyes suddenly widening.
“Oh my, this is yummy, how can it be this delicious!”
She gobbled down the beef, looking utterly incredulous.
All of a sudden, Lu Ban felt like he had discovered the secret to culinary expertise.
He then asked a zealous waiter to bring over a piece of paper, and with an ordinary pen, he started to doodle an abstract figure.
“What the heck have you drawn?”
Qin Tiantian leaned over to take a look at Lu Ban’s drawing, which seed like a charm to ward off evil spirits.
“It’s you.”
Lu Ban replied.
“Do you believe I can dunk your head into this pot?”
Qin Tiantian threatened without much conviction.
“Don’t rush, I haven’t finished yet.”
When Lu Ban finally finished the drawing, he used “Testant” to write a few words on it.
“A pretty drawing”
“How about that?”
He showed the drawing to Qin Tiantian.
“…I’m kinda curious how you turned that ghastly scribble into what it looks like now, which is… quite pretty, actually.”
Qin Tiantian was incredulous.
She even wondered if Lu Ban had suddenly acquired so mysterious ability.
“Did you, by any chance, awaken so superpower?”
“It’s not exactly a superpower.”
Lu Ban thought about it but was unclear on how to explain.
“You can…”
Qin Tiantian pondered for a mont before blurting out.
“Make drawings look better!!?”
“Indeed, I can also make you go up and down the stairs.”
Lu Ban nodded in agreent.
“That’s aweso!”
Qin Tiantian’s eyes shone brightly.
Lu Ban seriously considered whether to add a “Smart” badge on Qin Tiantian’s forehead.
After a hotpot al, Lu Ban dropped Qin Tiantian off at her house and took a stroll downstairs before entering his own ho.
Sitting in front of the computer, Lu Ban opened the folder nad “Glass Flower”.
The unique format was troubleso, and he decided to look at the materials before making any plans.
He saw that in addition to his own experiences with Old Cui and Shia, there was a portion about Stone, Liz, and Aio’s past.
Lu Ban, after all, was not Cui Siter; rather than dreaming of going through everything, he seriously went through the parts he had not seen.
He had so inspiration, but Lu Ban still couldn’t grasp the overall idea.
He decided to slack off and relax.
Sotis, if a person keeps working hard, their mind becos duller and duller.
The right amount of slacking off is necessary to better bring one’s subjective initiative into play.
Of course, if one could slack off without working at all, that would be even more delightful.
Opening the old video website, Lu Ban casually browsed through the recomnded videos.
His interests were diverse—animation, movies, food, cute pets—and the last review that made him laugh was from the tech review section.
After glancing through, suddenly, Lu Ban ca across a video.
“High-energy ahead? Courageous Lord takes you to explore the scariest escape room!”
He saw that it was an escape room exploration video.
Lu Ban hadn’t visited escape rooms for a long ti, the last ti being in his past life.
In his mory, escape rooms were the kind where people were locked in a room where they had to guess numbers, find patterns, and play arcade gas to advance to the next room—chanical escape rooms, as they are called nowadays.
Then there were the high-end plot-based escape rooms which included a storyline, requiring players to solve puzzles from the dialogues.
So escape rooms even had NPCs who would suddenly chase you, making one round more tiring than running a kiloter.
And evolved from these were the deduction-based rooms which relied solely on story progression and performance rather than chanisms.
Following this ca script murder gas that only had a script, without the physical room to escape from.
Lu Ban, with a spirit of learning, clicked on the video to watch.
In normal escape rooms, players go for the experience which can only be satisfying through personal participation, but so people are too timid or their cities lack thed escape rooms, or they’re simply students who cannot afford it, so they choose to experience vicariously through videos.
In modern society, virtually anything can be experienced vicariously; one can vicariously raise cats, watch others complete ga videos, even escape rooms can be experienced vicariously.
This video was an escape room exploration video. The uploader had inford the owner of the escape room and took a cara inside to record. Lu Ban looked through it and noticed that critical parts of the puzzles and illusions were not fild, only the general plot was shown which made people eager to try it out themselves.
Lu Ban found it quite interesting.
He searched for related content and discovered even more impressive ones.
So large-scale script murder gas rented out entire buildings, allowing hundreds of players to role-play within the building, offering an imrsive experience.
So were more outrageous, renting a whole town where there were common residents, NPCs, and players could stay for two or three days, living through the script.
Just like gas are to movies, entertainnt that allows the audience to choose, to take control, is definitely more imrsive than just watching.
Many of Lu Ban’s past films’ core selling point was the ability to let the audience experience the atmosphere as if they were there.
It occurred to him that if he could turn these task experiences into script murder or escape rooms where the audience could participate, wouldn’t the imrsion be even stronger?
With this thought, Lu Ban got in touch with a professional friend to inquire about the relevant knowledge.
This style is currently known as large-scale imrsive real-world gaming, commonly held in movie towns and shooting bases that already have sets. Many companies choose such activities for team building, which is trendier and more fashionable than simple trips.
“That seems pretty good.”
Lu Ban thought, like the script of “Glass Flower,” if they let players act as him, Old Cui, Shia, and others such as Stone, Liz, it would be quite interesting.
Most importantly, those materials, when watched or read, already create an imrsive effect, making the audience engrossed, and if turned into a ga for players, they would experience Stone’s thoughts even more intensely—the level of empathy would be explosive.
“I should probably do so field research first.”
Lu Ban thought and imdiately sent a ssage to Qin Tiantian.
“Motionless”: Do you want to go explore an escape room tomorrow?
