Chapter 75 Treating guests, beheading, and being treated as dogs (additional update)
“This...am I dead?”
Opposite, Fang Hongwei, who also works for Guangyao Games and serves as the chief planner, looked at the chess game on the table and couldn't help but laugh:
“Mr. Ding still has a better move.”
Fang Hongwei made a pun and pointed his thumb at Ding Kailian.
Ding Kai waved his hand and smiled:
“Only when you know the right time can you win unexpectedly. This is also the fundamental reason why we have stood proudly over the years.”
Hearing this, Fang Hongwei nodded sincerely.
Having worked under Ding Kai for so many years, he really admired Ding Kai's mind.
I have to admit that Ding Kai is indeed a person who knows how to seize market opportunities.
He knows very well what games are popular on the market, or what games are going to be popular, and he can predict them in advance.
Just like this time!
After seeing "Survival" causing a stir in the industry at the China Entertainment Television Conference.
Ding Kai made a prompt decision and called Fang Hongwei before the exhibition was over, asking him to urgently organize a development seminar for "Fearless Sniper" immediately.
He himself took the latest flight and returned to Shenzhou!
That night, Guangyao Game Studio held an emergency seminar overnight with only one purpose -
Postponing the delay, add the second-generation FPS setting to your game!
At that time, at the meeting, the first words Ding Kai said were:
“I know you may have objections, but swallow them down and work hard. Once you get the bonus, your objections will be gone.”
Get immediate results.
Since then, after more than two months of ‘emergency polishing’, Fearless Sniper has added a ‘second-generation FPS setting’ based on the original.
The specific form is to introduce the gun aiming action while retaining the virtual crosshair, UI design and competitiveness of the first-generation FPS game.
Although!
Ding Kai did not expect that after Road to Survival was officially launched, Golden Wind would include many special actions, such as sliding and shoveling climbing.
But in his opinion, those are just trivial things.
If the effect is good, just add it to the game later.
Now, the top priority is to put it on the shelves as soon as the second-generation FPS becomes popular after Left 4 Dead!
Because only in this way can they take advantage of the strongest east wind and drive their chariots to kill pawns and general market just like in the chess game just now!
Yes!
General Market, not General Gold Wind!
Because in Ding Kai's eyes, Golden Wind is just like the countless small manufacturers who have been stepped on by him. They are just tools for providing creativity and are not worth mentioning.
and.
As time goes by, Ding Kai, who is backed by Xunteng, can still use his old tricks to confuse the origin of the "second generation FPS" through various forms of publicity.
Let Guangyao become the leader who holds this banner, and even become the benchmark flagship of the second generation FPS!
Use the bad to drive out the good, and the doves occupy the magpie's nest.
This is the method of Ding Kai and Guangyao.
That’s right, that’s how he evaluates himself.
Ding Kai knows what he is doing, but he enjoys it and is proud of it.
After cleaning up the chess game, Fang Hongwei made a pot of tea, poured a cup of fragrant tea and gave it to Ding Kai, and then poured himself tea and said:
“I’ve made arrangements,”
“Tomorrow’s announcement will be on all platforms, whether it is big media or small media, self-media or game bloggers,”
“Our names can be seen in all announcements, big and small.”
As he spoke, Fang Hongwei picked up the teacup, took a sip, and continued:
“Also, I’ve said hello to the shark,”
“Tomorrow’s prime time period, major anchors in various categories will broadcast our games live,”
“And I also… hinted at the shark aspect,”
“As for the way to survive in the Golden Wind… let’s go back a little bit…”
After listening to Fang Hongwei’s report, Ding Kai nodded with satisfaction:
“Well done, they really should be asked to back off a little bit. Anyway, I don’t think they have any intention of making public announcements, haha.”
The two clinked glasses to celebrate their success in advance.
Then, Fang Hongwei pondered for a moment, and then continued: "By the way, Mr. Ding, from now on, on the Golden Wind side, we still need to..."
As he spoke, Fang Hongwei stretched out three fingers.
If an outsider came, they would definitely not understand the meaning of Fang Hongwei's gesture.
But Ding Kai has worked with him for so many years, how could he not know what Fang Hongwei meant.
Today!
Golden Wind’s sales were a foregone conclusion in the eyes of the two people.
After all, this is not the first time Guangyao has used this method to squeeze small factories.
Success time and time again, it has been proven countless times—
When the core gameplay of a game has been understood by them and taken as their own, no one can stop Xunteng Games' torrent of publicity and financial offensive.
certainly!
Ding Kai and his Guangyao are not "heartless" people either.
After all, when small factories are devastated, they will inevitably jump over the wall.
Even though those incompetent people are furious in front of Guangyao Game, they can't make any waves.
But if those unruly "diaochangs" are allowed to continue causing trouble, it will always make people upset.
Flies flying too many are disgusting.
At this time, it’s time for Ding Kai to use ‘merciful means’——
Treat guests, behead someone, accept him as a dog.
Treatment, as the name suggests, means that both parties sit down and have a good chat, trying to reduce the big deal to the trivial.
certainly!
Bones can be soft or hard.
When those small manufacturers are dissatisfied with solving the problem with just one meal, Ding Kai will draw the last two cards—
One is beheading.
For those who don’t want to be dismissed with a meal, they insistently ask Guangyao to take the game off the shelves and compensate and apologize, forcing the small factory to overestimate their capabilities.
Ding Kai has nothing to talk about.
Since you are shameless and want to shake up the tree with a cricket, then I will kill you.
Whether it’s market suppression, platform blockade, troll smear campaigns or deliberate flattery.
In short, with the brilliance of a big business, it is easy to destroy a small factory.
As for the other card, it is naturally "accepted as a dog".
䱱You said I copied your game? Where is the evidence? How about you sue me? Can I help you find legal aid?
Joke!
Not to mention that Nanshan Pizza Hut rarely loses, but even if you sue the King of Heaven over this kind of thing, you won't win!
In that case, why not do this—I admire your talent and favor your creativity.
If you insist that the idea and gameplay are yours, that’s not impossible.
Join us under Xunteng Games, become a member of Guangyao Studio, and work side by side with us.
In this way, I can openly admit that the idea of this game comes from you and is your first creation.
And more than that!
I will also hand all subsequent development tasks into your hands, and you will be fully responsible for creating this IP!
It is also known as "created with the efforts of the original team"!
At that time!
We need money, people, resources, resources, publicity and publicity!
As long as this project can make a profit and make a lot of money, then you will be the well-deserved godfather of this game!
Even, I can make you the leader of this type of game, the mainstay of the entire Chinese game!
Three trump cards, three magic weapons!
There is no disadvantage and every battle is invincible!
Since the establishment of Guangyao, the small factory representatives Ding Kai and Fang Hongwei met have all gone away!
But every time these three cards are played, there is no failure!And today! This time!
Fang Hongwei’s three fingers mean exactly this!
Tomorrow, their "Fearless Sniper" will be launched, and Golden Wind's "Long 4 Survival" will inevitably be gradually squeezed out.
"Um-"
Knowing what Fang Hongwei meant, Ding Kai groaned and thought for a moment:
“This is a problem…”
Seeing this, Fang Hongwei smacked his lips: "They have always had a very close relationship with Yiyou, and they will probably not agree to be taken in as dogs by us."
“That being the case…”
At this point, Fang Hongwei raised his hand and made a beheading gesture:
“Behead?”
but!
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Hongwei realized something was wrong and shook his head hastily, secretly thinking that he was confused.
no.
The boss of Golden Wind is named Shen!
Although it has always been!
Golden Wind is all about the supernova designer named Gu Sheng, who shows up and stands on the cusp of the storm.
Whether it is an exchange meeting or a media exhibition, he is always leading the trend and stealing the show, as if he is in charge of the golden wind.
But Fang Hongwei has not forgotten that the real helmsman of the Golden Wind is Shen Miaomiao who looks like a mascot!
That is the daughter of Shen Wanlin’s family!
As for Shen Wanlin, in terms of status, he is the top leader in Xundeng, and their ponies are always on an equal footing!
Behead someone’s precious daughter? Tired of living?
Besides, the previous starburst game has already served as a warning, and now the grass on the grave is probably more than three meters high.
It’s difficult to handle!
Fang Hongwei also frowned.
It would be great if only Gu Sheng was in charge of the secret golden wind.
That way, it will be much easier for them to do things.
Whether it is beheading or being treated as a dog, the initiative is in their glorious hands. It can be said that people are fish and meat and I am a knife.
But now…
Fang Hongwei kept talking for a long time. He couldn't think of anything to do, so he turned his attention to Ding Kai:
"It's not okay to accept him as a dog, nor is it okay to behead him. What should we do? Is it fair competition?"
As soon as he said this, Fang Hongwei couldn't help himself and almost laughed.
It’s really ridiculous that I can actually say these four words one day...
However!
Just when Fang Hongwei was at his wits end!
I heard Ding Kai from the opposite side groan:
"Actually - it's not that it can't be cut -"
"ah?"
Hearing this, Fang Hongwei was shocked:
“But this company… is backed by Shen Capital…”
“What happened to Shen Capital?”
Ding Kai asked rhetorically:
“Can Shen Capital cover the sky with one hand and prevent us from hiring headhunters, poaching their executives at high prices, and dismantling their teams?”
“As people go to higher places, even Shen Capital cannot restrict other people’s freedom of employment, right?”
“Besides, behind Golden Wind is Shen Capital, and behind us is Xunteng Technology. We are all on an equal footing, and what we are fighting for is nothing more than a business method.”
“It’s not unreasonable, right?”
——! !
After hearing Ding Kai's words, Fang Hongwei couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
This is a good trick!
Too.
Since you have a good relationship with Golden Wind and Yiyou, I cannot fully accept it, and you are backed by Shen Capital, so I cannot maliciously attack you with too despicable means.
Then I'll poach you!
Just dig your company into an empty shell and dismantle your production team to pieces. You will be dead by then!
This kind of method, let alone a small factory, cannot be tolerated by ordinary medium and large manufacturers!
Think of this!
Fang Hongwei couldn’t help but slap his hands!
“Mr. Ding must be smart!”
“On the one hand, we use propaganda to suppress the golden trend, rely on size to seize their market share, and use fair competition to suppress the sales of their works!”
“On the other hand, we secretly hired headhunters to recruit people and offered high prices to tempt them!”
“This is a trick that will draw the fire under the kettle, it will definitely make the wind of gold, and the mute will eat Coptis chinensis——”
…
I have troubles that I can’t express! !
The next day.
Shen Miaomiao looked at the mobile phone on the table with her hands on her cheek, her face full of pain.
Early in the morning!
Yan Sheng called her!
The first sentence in the opening almost gave her a myocardial infarction—
“Haha! Congratulations, Mr. Shen!”
I respect your mother’s height!
Shen Miaomiao wanted to throw the phone out on the spot.
No need to ask!
Being able to get Yan Sheng to call her personally, the weight of this "good news" must not be small!
Shen Miaomiao could guess with her eyes closed that their game must be a hit again!
“Where does my… joy come from…”
Shen Miaomiao patiently asked with her head full of black lines, her tone was a little anxious and a little hopeless.
“The first-day sales results are out!”
Yan Sheng did not notice at all that Shen Miaomiao was in a bad mood and kept to himself and said cheerfully:
“I don’t know if Mr. Shen has looked at the first day’s data,”
“But when the secretary reported it this morning, I was shocked by the sales volume of your game!”
Shen Miaomiao felt a little tight in her chest and her fingers were trembling slightly: "Yes...yes..."
“No!”
On the other end of the phone, Yan Sheng’s happy tone was filled with a bit of disbelief:
“A total of 32,772 copies were sold in 24 hours, and the total sales revenue was 2.78 million! Mr. Shen, your game has exceeded the 100,000 sales mark in the first week, it is a sure thing!”
Yan Sheng’s words, one after another, were like knives one after another, piercing Shen Miaomiao into a sieve.
You need to know!
For this investment rebate, Shen Miaomiao activated the 100-fold bonus card!
In other words, the game has only been released for one day!
She has already lost 200 million in blood?
That’s two hundred million!
and!
Hearing Yan Sheng’s words, this week, there is a high possibility that Road to Survival will exceed 100,000 copies? !
Calculated based on the selling price of 85 yuan per copy, 100,000 copies is 8.5 million!
If all this money is converted into rebates for investment failure in proportion, it will be more than 800 million!
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao felt that her heart was bleeding.
However, seeing the game live broadcasts becoming more and more popular now and being in full swing on various platforms, she felt really powerless.
Damn it, is there no hero in the FPS market in China’s gaming industry who can stand up and punish Lao Gu? !
However.
Just thought of this.
Shen Miaomiao heard her cell phone ding and received a text message—
