Chapter 100 The three heroes fight against Lu Bu?
“Golden Wind…”
Before Mr. Zhao finished speaking, everyone in the conference room spoke in unison.
The consensus among everyone is very unified.
Because of this company’s accomplishments in FPS games—
No one can match it!
A "Long to Survive" created the "second-generation FPS model" that has been praised by countless peers and imitated and studied like crazy!
Following this, he detonated the shooting game market with "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", leading sales in Asia, and at the same time created a new FPS gameplay of "Battle Royale"!
In just one year!
Two works!
A film that subverts the basic model of shooting games! Another one that creates a new way to play the game!
I dare not say that such a company is unprecedented, but it is definitely unprecedented!
So, all the senior management of Yiyou immediately thought of Golden Wind.
But the problem is—
“Aren’t their sizes enough to meet the production cost requirements of a major **** game?”
Mr. Sun said:
“Normally speaking, the cost of **** masterpieces is easily seven to eight billion, and it is not uncommon to even exceed one billion, but Golden Wind…”
“Even including the revenue that PUBG brought them this time,”
“It is impossible for them to produce a game with a total investment of 8 to 9 billion, or even more than 1 billion, before the release of Yiyu x2…”
Size issue.
It seems that this problem has been plaguing Golden Wind since their inception.
Nowadays, this is even more true.
“What about our participation in investment?”
When everyone frowned, Mr. Qian suggested:
“We are responsible for providing capital to supplement the development funds required by Golden Wind, and then both parties will share dividends in proportion.”
Although Mr. Qian’s words sound reasonable.
But obviously, he did not consider how much money Yiyou would need to invest if he really invested.
After all, he is the boss of the development department, his surname is Qian, but he has been playing the role of asking for money for a long time and has no idea about the amount of investment.
“Not very good,”
The second-in-command, Mr. Zhao, immediately shook his head and signaled something was wrong:
“If Golden Wind really wants to develop one of the three **** masterpieces, then the project will be launched by the end of next month at the latest,”
“At that time, PUBG’s full revenue will not exceed 200 million. This is still under the most ideal situation,”
“In other words, we will need to inject 600-800 million yuan into them by then to be able to support their game development,”
“The risk is too high.”
As an investor, the investment amount is close to 80% of the total project amount!
Isn’t this nonsense?
This is not investment, it is clearly gambling.
Hundreds of millions of dollars.
Such a large amount of money is not a small amount even for an art tour.
and!
Using such a huge amount of funds requires the approval of the board of directors.
Yan Sheng knows that group of people very well.
As a motion sensing cabin and game platform company, the board of directors will never agree with them taking such an unconventional approach and temporarily acting as a game development investment company to inject hundreds of millions into a small emerging enterprise.
And if they insist on going their own way and misappropriate funds without telling the board of directors, then if they make a mistake, everyone here, including Yan Sheng, will suffer a huge loss and may even be sued.
So, it is useless for just a few of their executives to trust Golden Wind.
The board of directors didn’t make a decision and no one was recruited.
"Um-"
At this point, several people frowned in thought and ran out of ideas for a while.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Yan Sheng also sighed: "Well, Golden Wind will be a backup for the time being. For FPS games, we should contact Zhenting Studio first."
Zhenting Studio is also a relatively well-known large-scale game company in China, focusing on FPS games.
In terms of size, it is as famous as Guangyao, one of the five major studios under Xunteng.
The two families are rivals of each other, often fighting each other, and winning and losing.
Since Guangyao is a direct descendant of Xunteng, Zhenting naturally prefers Yiyou. The relationship between the two companies is not bad and they have collaborated many times before.
Yan Sheng finally considered the size issue and put Golden Wind on the candidate list.
Although, he desperately wanted to cooperate with Golden Wind, and allocated the last quota for the FPS **** masterpiece to Golden Wind, which was personally managed by Gu Sheng.
But what can be done, a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice.
He can’t let Golden Wind produce a work worth less than 200 million and launch it as their **** masterpiece, right?
Wouldn’t that make people laugh out loud?
Thinking about it, Yan Sheng also picked up the phone and prepared to make a call with the person in charge of Zhen Ting Studio. He would first call the front station to ask what the other party meant and see if there was any intention to cooperate.
However!
Before he could find the contact information of Zhen Ting Studio on his mobile phone!
Ding dong!
Suddenly, the phone rang!
A push message from Tiantian Youbao appeared at the top of the screen—
《Breaking news! Xunteng announces cooperation with Zhenting Studio! 》
I? ah?
Yan Sheng froze immediately and read the news three times!
Next, lift the phone and flip it left and right to check.
He suspected that he was being monitored!
I just said I wanted to cooperate with Zhen Ting, and the next second you told me that Zhen Ting had "surrendered to the enemy"?
Why do I feel that I am being manipulated by a mysterious force?
Yan Sheng felt a little numb. When he opened the push notification, he saw it said:
It is reported that the cooperation between the two parties is mainly to prepare for the "Polar Bear 3rd Generation" somatosensory cabin that will be released in the first half of next year.
By then, Zhenting Studio will join forces with Xundeng’s two ace shooting game studios, Guangyao and Tianlang, to jointly launch three FPS-type **** masterpieces.
At the same time, Polar Bear 3 will also become the only somatosensory cabin so far that has been protected by three games of the same type.
It is enough to see that Xunteng Games is determined to win the FPS market this time...
——! !
Putting down the phone, Yan Sheng couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and frowned into a knot.
He knows that it will be in the first half of next year.
The new generation of somatosensory cabin "Polar Bear 3" developed by Xunteng Technology will be released in perfect sync with the "Yiyou x2" developed by Yiyou.
Of course, rather than hitting the target, it is better to say that Xunteng Technology is 'sniping' at them.
The reason is also very simple—
As of the second quarter of this year, Yiyoux1’s domestic market share has increased from 17% to 20%, a year-on-year increase of 3 percentage points.
The market share of Polar Bear 2 dropped from 28% to 25%, a drop of 3 percentage points.
The gap between the two sides has also shortened from the original 11% to 5%.
Of course, Xunteng cannot sit still, because if this continues, their position as the leader of the domestic somatosensory cabin will likely be replaced.
Hunteng’s sniper attack was expected by Yan Sheng.
But he didn’t expect it!
This time, Xun Teng’s offensive was so fierce!
We have found three large-scale shooting game studios in China and launched three FPS games as **** masterpieces to build momentum for the new generation of somatosensory cabins!
You can see it!
Xun Teng is getting serious and is bound to take a piece of the big cake in today’s increasingly hot shooting game market!
Even at any cost!
Takes the initiative to contact Zhenting, who had never had a harmonious relationship before, and spent a lot of money to win them over, almost completely monopolizing the resources of domestic first-line shooting game developers!
【This time, you Yiyou can't get enough of the shooting game! 】
Xun Teng’s meaning is obvious.
It took half a minute to slow down!
Yan Sheng couldn’t help but smile bitterly and forwarded the message to the executive WeChat group:
“Come on, I won’t call Zhen Ting anymore, let’s find another way out…”
Hearing this, all the executives picked up their mobile phones one after another.
After checking it, everyone was dumbfounded!
What the fuck?
Mr. Yan, do you follow what you say?
You just said you wanted to cooperate with Zhen Ting, but Zhen Ting surrendered to the enemy?
certainly!
It is actually not appropriate to say "surrender to the enemy".
There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests.
As an independent game studio, Zhenting has not signed an exclusive cooperation agreement with Yiyou, and is not an in-depth partner of Yiyou. It is understandable to choose Xunteng, which bids higher and opens earlier.
Just like this...
“Then what should we do?”
Vice President Zhao scratched his head:
“Aren’t we going to give up on this?”
“There are not many established first-tier manufacturers in China that focus on shooting games. After all, Xunteng has always dominated the market before,”
“Two of the top three FPS manufacturers are owned by Xunteng,”
“It’s good now, all three families are under their control,”
“Let’s… what the hell…”
Lao Zhao looked complicated.
I’m not angry, I just feel that this matter is outrageous.
Three FPS **** masterpieces? !
This is what the **** was done by humans? !
Who would choose three games of the same type as the **** masterpieces of his somatosensory cabin? !
Is this... raising gu?
Hearing Lao Zhao's doubts, Mr. Li, who was in charge of market operations, shook his head: "It's not about cultivating Gu. Xunteng wants to fully occupy the FPS market and want to kill us with one shot..."
Hearing this, Yan Sheng raised his eyebrows and raised his hand: "Tell me about it?"
Mr. Li nodded:
“First of all, Xun Teng is not stupid, I believe everyone knows this,”
"Historically, no somatosensory cabin company has chosen all of its **** masterpieces to be of the same game type at the time of release," "Xundo must also know this, so according to my guess-"
“Their strategy this time is to ‘break them down from all sides and then attack them together’.”
Mr. Li is very smart, or in other words, very thief.
After all, he specializes in playing the market, and every strand of his hair will be empty.
I immediately realized that this wave of operations by Xun Teng can be described as extremely ambitious!
Mr. Li clasped his fingers and said:
“These three developers seem to be FPS manufacturers, but in fact, they have different focuses.”
“Tianlang’s main focus is traditional battle competition. It started from the first generation of FPS and is the early core development team of FireWire Shuttle.”
“Guangyao’s main focus is on motion-sensing cabin masterpieces, and its current development focus is on the second-generation FPS, and it is very good at grasping market trends,”
“As for Zhen Ting, he has always focused on the stand-alone game market. Whether it is plot narrative or graphics, the market reputation is good.”
After listening to Mr. Li’s analysis, everyone couldn’t help but take a breath.
Mr. Li’s meaning is already very obvious—
Tianlang focuses on traditional battles and stabilizes its position.
Guangyao launches the second-generation FPS to increase the battle royale and divide and encroach.
Zhen Ting is responsible for producing a single machine, chasing and intercepting.
Three axes, axes are going straight to the throat of art games, and they are bound to win the shooting game market in one fell swoop!
Even Yan Sheng, as a competitor, couldn't help but secretly sigh in his heart at what a fierce offensive!
If you need money, you will have money; if you need people, you will have people!
Three-blade axes may seem simple and crude, but with one force you can knock down ten blows, even if you are an artist, you will find it hard to resist even a big axe!
Obviously!
Hard steel is definitely not a good choice for art games!
Hence, after a moment of silence, Vice President Zhao spoke: "In this case, Mr. Yan, we might as well avoid the edge for the time being."
Yan Sheng understood what Vice President Zhao meant.
The three axes are powerful and difficult for them to resist.
In that case, there is no need to resist!
At any rate, there are more than just FPS games in the somatosensory cabin!
Since Xundo has gone ruthless this time and is desperate to seize the FPS market, then stay away from them and focus on sports and racing in the **** masterpiece.
Leveraging strengths and avoiding weaknesses, this is the benefit of walking on three legs.
Although it may lose part of the shooting game market, it can make up for it through the other two tracks, or even achieve overtake.
Why not do it?
“Mr. Zhao, you mean we give up FPS directly?”
Yan Sheng pondered slightly:
“But the full-sensory assistive technology of Yiyu x2 performs best in FPS type…”
“You don’t have to give up completely,”
Vice President Zhao chuckled and said:
“When it comes to the choice of shooting game manufacturers...do we still have an alternative?”
Golden wind!
Just listen to Mr. Zhao say:
“We must not be completely short on the shooting game segment, otherwise the advantages of full-sensory assistance will not be reflected,”
“But if we have to bear three axes, the gains outweigh the losses for us,”
“Then it’s better to let the golden wind come into battle,”
“Tian Ji races a horse,”
“Use a low-cost horse to symbolically compare with Xun Teng’s three-axe,”
“Then we increase our efforts and strive to let the other two tracks seize this opportunity to achieve overtaking in corners,”
“Anyway…”
Speaking of this.
Lao Zhao is actually a little embarrassed, knowing that his move is a bit damaging, but it is indeed the optimal solution:
"Anyway, Golden Wind...should be used to fighting this kind of battle with less to win more,"
“Although Golden Wind is inferior in terms of cost, I believe that with Director Gu’s performance..."
"Well…"
"Um…"
“It should also be... right?”
In the end, Lao Zhao himself didn’t believe it.
He really can't make up any more of this nonsense.
How much does it cost to invest in Golden Wind?
One hundred million? Two hundred million?
How much is the investment in San Ban Ax?
Three billion? Four billion?
Just pick one out and it can blast the golden wind to the ground!
In a one-to-one situation, the cost difference is even ten times!
What's more, this time, they want the Golden Wind to beat three!
The cost difference is thirty to forty times!
What kind of magical game is it that can allow Golden Wind to make a comeback at such a huge disadvantage? !
Lao Zhao couldn't think of it.
Because that is simply tan90°—does not exist!
This move is actually to draw the golden wind as a backing!
Three heroes fought against Lu Bu, but Lu Bu had superior fighting ability!
What are these two money-making things in Golden Wind?
I will scare you when I say my name.
This is **** like three Lu Bu beating General Lingling.
Lao Zhao even suspected that he would only be able to build a tomb for the Golden Wind—
Golden Wind’s ashes will have to be raised by those three people.
Yan Sheng was in a dilemma.
On the one hand, Lao Zhao’s move is really damaging. Tian Ji’s horse racing at this level is like asking a primary school student to enter the octagonal cage to compete with three Tysons.
On the other hand, Lao Zhao’s method is indeed the current optimal solution.
Dilemma!
After some pondering!
Yan Sheng is worried!
“Well, in two days, PUBG’s first week sales will be out,”
“Looking at this, it should be no problem to recover the cost in the first week,”
"While Mr. Shen is happy, I will go to Binjiang myself."
“On the one hand, I would like to congratulate Mr. Xiao Shen, and on the other hand, I would also like to take the opportunity to share our considerations.”
“I guess it’s easier for her to accept this…”
…
I can’t accept it.
I can't **** accept it! !
Ahhhhhh—
Two days later!
Golden Wind President’s Office.
Shen Miaomiao grabbed the gilt-framed wooden certificate in her hand, clenched her teeth, her eyes were about to burst, and she almost broke the certificate in her hand!
On the table, there was clearly displayed the first week sales results of PUBG as of 8 o'clock last night, which Yaji Club had specially faxed to her!
Other games don’t have this treatment!
because!
As of last night!
The total number of copies sold of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds broke the highest single-week sales record in the history of the Asian Games, making history!
Sold 566,894 copies in a single week! Total sales revenue was 55,555,612 yuan!
Excluding the 10% commission, the net profit was fully recovered in one week, even exceeding 50 yuan!
What Shen Miaomiao was holding in her hands was the record-breaking medal certificate sent by China Entertainment Television on behalf of the Asian Games.
What the hell…
Shen Miaomiao was about to go berserk.
Making money is not scary, the key is that my 10 million is included in this BYD game!
Ten million!
That's what I got in exchange for a super guaranteed card!
That is a hundred-fold rebate card that is extremely precious and can only be obtained by unlocking achievements!
This is the only one! No more missing out!
For this thing, I struggled for half a year and came up with a game called "Land of Survival". I lost 100,000 yuan and turned it into 10 million yuan.
Before I even got it, I put it into the company's funds free of charge. I thought that the egg would lay eggs and the chicken would lay eggs, and the cycle would be endless. The situation was great.
result!
Half a year!
The egg did give birth to a chicken, but the chicken meowed and ran away! !
Shen Miaomiao was very sad.
Even a little phantom egg pain...
ifies.
After holding her breath for a while, Shen Miaomiao lay weakly on the table, a sad tear falling from the corner of her eye.
Fruited.
It’s so frustrating.
Especially after hearing the employees outside the door rushing to tell each other, congratulating each other, and exclaiming "Director Gu is really a god!"
This frustration has simply reached its peak.
Is there any heavenly principle?
Is there any royal law?
Isn’t this bullying an honest person?
I!
Hibernate the calmness for a while, take a step back and get angrier the more you think about it!
Let's make a sound!
Shen Miaomiao jumped up from her seat, raised the medal and certificate and was about to knock it on her knees!
But right now!
Tuk-tuk-tuk-click.
Chu Qingzhou knocked on the door and poked his head in: "Mr. Shen, you...? What are you doing?"
See you!
At this time, Shen Miaomiao was holding up the medal and certificate with both hands and looking up, like an old ape holding Simba.
"I…"
Shen Miaomiao opened her mouth:
“Ah-Zkenya-Mummy Chihuahua-”
