Say Yes To Making Bad Games, What the Hell is Titanfall? Chapter 100

  Chapter 100 Three Great Britain vs Lu Bu?

   "Wind of Gold..."

   Before Mr. Zhao finished speaking, the conference room spoke in unison.

  Everyone's consensus is very unified.

  Because of the company's accomplishments in FPS games—

No one can beat it!

   A "Left 4 Dead" created a "second-generation FPS mode" that has been praised by countless colleagues and crazily imitated and learned!

   Immediately afterwards, "PUBG Mobile" ignited the shooting game market, leading sales in Asia, and created a new FPS gameplay of "Battle Royale"!

   In just one year!

   Two works!

   A subversion of the basic mode of shooting games! Another one that creates a new way to play the game!

   Such a company does not dare to say that there will be no one in the future, but it is absolutely unprecedented!

  So, all the high-level executives of Yiyou immediately thought of the golden wind.

  But the problem is—

   "Their size, can't meet the production cost requirements of **** masterpieces?"

  Mr. Sun said:

   "Usually speaking, the cost of escorting masterpieces is easily 700 to 800 million, and it is not uncommon to even exceed one billion, but the wind of gold..."

   "Even counting the revenue brought to them by PUBG this time,"

   "It is impossible for them to produce a game with a total investment of 800, 900, 900,000, or even more than 1 billion before the release of Yiyou x2..."

  Size problem.

   It seems that this problem has been plaguing Wind of Gold since its inception.

   Today, even more so.

   "How about we participate in the investment?"

  When everyone frowned, Mr. Qian suggested:

   "We are responsible for funding and supplementing 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 didn't consider how much Yiyou would need to invest if he really invested.

   After all, he is the head of the development department, surnamed Qian, but he has been playing the role of asking for money for a long time, and has no idea about the investment amount.

"not too good,"

  The second-in-command Mr. Zhao immediately shook his head, signaling that something was wrong:

   "If Golden Wind really wants to develop one of the three **** masterpieces, then the project will start by the end of next month at the latest,"

   "At that time, PUBG's full revenue will not exceed 200 million, which is still in the most ideal situation,"

   "That is to say, we need to inject 600-800 million yuan into them, so that we can support their game development,"

   “The stakes are 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 funds.

  Such a large amount of money is not a small amount even for Yiyou.

and!

   The use of such a huge amount of funds requires the approval of the board of directors.

   And Yan Sheng knew that group of people very well.

  As a somatosensory cabin and game platform company, the board of directors would never agree with them taking such a slant, temporarily acting as a game development and investment company, and injecting hundreds of millions of capital into a small start-up company.

  And if they insist on going their own way and misappropriating funds without telling the board of directors, then if they miss, everyone present here, including Yan Sheng, will not be able to afford it, and they will even be involved in a lawsuit.

  Therefore, it is useless for a few of their executives to trust the golden wind.

  The board of directors did not make a decision, and no one was recruited.

"Um-"

   Speaking of this, several people were frowning in thought, and lost their mind for a while.

   Seeing everyone looking at him one after another, Yan Sheng also sighed: "Well, let's take Golden Wind as an alternative for now. Let's contact Zhenting Studio for FPS games 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 to each other. They often wrestle with each other, and each wins and loses.

  Since Guangyao is a direct descendant of Xun Teng, Zhen Ting naturally leans more towards Yiyou. The relationship between the two is not bad, and they have cooperated many times before.

   After all, Yan Sheng still considered the size issue, and put the Golden Wind on the shortlist.

  Although, he desperately wants to cooperate with Golden Wind, and assigns the last FPS **** masterpiece to Golden Wind, and Gu Sheng will do it himself.

  However, it is hard for a clever woman to cook without rice.

  He can't let Golden Wind produce a work with less than 200 million yuan, and it will be launched as their **** masterpiece, right?

   Wouldn't that make people laugh out loud.

  Thinking, Yan Sheng also picked up the phone, ready to make a phone call with the person in charge of Zhenting Studio, first call the front station, ask the other party what they mean, and see if there is any cooperation intention.

However!

   Before he could find the contact information of Zhenting Studio on his mobile phone!

   Ding Dong!

  Suddenly, the phone rang!

  A push from Tiantianyoubao appeared on the top of the screen—

  《Heavy! Xun Teng announced the cooperation with Zhenting Studio! "

I? ah?

  Yan Sheng froze immediately and read the news three times over and over again!

   Next, hold up the phone and flip it left and right to check.

  He suspected that he was being monitored!

   I just said that I want to cooperate with Zhenting, and the next second you tell me that Zhenting has "joined the enemy"?

  Why do I feel manipulated by a mysterious force?

   Yan Sheng was a little numb. When he opened the push, he saw that it said:

  ... It is reported that the cooperation between the two parties this time is mainly to prepare for the "Polar Bear 3rd Generation" somatosensory cabin that will be released in the first half of tomorrow.

  At that time, Zhenting Studio will cooperate with Shun Teng'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 that chooses three games of the same type to escort.

  It is enough to see that Xunteng Games is determined to win the FPS market this time...

   Hiss—! !

   Putting down the phone, Yan Sheng gasped involuntarily, his brows knit into a knot.

   He knows, 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 collision with the "Yiyou x2" developed by their Yiyou.

  Of course, rather than a collision, it might be better to say that Xunteng Technology is 'sniping' them.

  The reason is also very simple——

  As of the second quarter of this year, Yiyou x1's domestic market share has risen 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 been shortened from the original 11% to 5%.

  Of course Xun Teng couldn't sit still, because if this continues, the position of the leader of their domestic somatosensory cabin is very likely to be replaced.

   Xun Teng's sniper attack was expected by Yan Sheng.

  But he didn't expect it!

   This time, Xun Teng's offensive was so fierce!

   Found three large domestic shooting game studios in a row, and launched three FPS games in a row, as **** masterpieces, to build momentum for the new generation of somatosensory cabins!

I can tell!

  Xun Teng is so ruthless, he is bound to get a big piece of cake in today's increasingly hot shooting game market!

   Even at any cost!

   Actively contacted Zhen Ting, who had been on bad terms 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 won't be able to eat a little bit of rice from shooting games! 】

   Xun Teng's meaning is obvious.

   Slowed down for half a minute!

  Yan Sheng couldn't help laughing bitterly, and forwarded the news to the executive WeChat group:

   "Come on, I don't want to call Zhenting either, let's find another way out..."

  Hearing this, all the executives picked up their phones one after another.

   After checking it, I was dumbfounded!

   What the fuck?

   President Yan can't follow the law?

  Just when you said you wanted to cooperate with Zhenting, Zhenting joined the enemy?

certainly!

  It is actually not appropriate to say "surrender to the enemy".

   There is no eternal enemy, 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.

   Just so...

   "Then what shall we do?"

  Vice President Lao Zhao scratched his head:

   "Isn't this **** going to be put down by us?"

   "There are not many established domestic first-tier manufacturers that focus on shooting games. After all, the previous market has always been occupied by Xunteng,"

   "Two of the top three FPS manufacturers are owned by Xunteng,"

   "It's good now, all three of the **** families are under their hands,"

   "We... this fucking..."

  Old Zhao looked complicated.

   Not angry, just simply felt that this matter was outrageous.

   Three FPS **** masterpieces? !

   Is this **** done by humans? !

  Who is a good person to choose three games of the same type as the **** masterpiece for their motion sensor cabin? !

  This... raises Gu?

  Hearing Lao Zhao's doubts, Mr. Li, who is in charge of market operations, shook his head: "It's not raising Gu, Xun Teng wants to fully occupy the FPS market, and wants to beat us to death..."

  Hearing this, Yan Sheng raised his eyebrows and raised his hand: "Tell me?"

  Mr. Li nodded:

   "First of all, Xun Teng is not stupid, I believe everyone knows this,"

  "Historically, no motion sensor cabin has selected all its **** masterpieces as the same game type when it is released,"

   "Shundo must have known this too, so I'm guessing—"

   "Their tactic this time is to 'break down from all directions and attack together'."

  Mr. Li is very smart, or rather, a thief.

   After all, they specialize in playing the market, and even a single strand of hair would be empty.

   Immediately realized that this wave of operations by Xun Teng can be described as wolf ambition!

   "Tianlang, Guangyao, Zhenting,"

  President Li snapped his fingers and said:

   "These three developers seem to be FPS manufacturers, but in fact, their focus is different,"

   "Tianlang focuses on traditional battle competitions. It started with a generation of FPS, and it is the core development team of Shuttle in the early stage,"

   "Guangyao's main focus is the somatosensory cabin masterpiece. The current development focus is on the second-generation FPS, and it is very good at grasping market trends,"

   "As for Zhenting, it has always focused on the stand-alone game market. Whether it is plot narrative or graphics, the market has a good reputation."

  After listening to Mr. Li's analysis, everyone couldn't help but gasped.

   President Li's meaning is already very obvious—

  Tianlang focuses on traditional battles and holds his ground.

  Guangyao launched the second-generation FPS to increase escape and kill, divide and eat.

  Zhen Ting is responsible for producing stand-alone machines, chasing and intercepting them.

   Three tricks, ax and ax go straight to Yiyou's choked throat, and it is bound to win the shooting game market in one fell swoop!

  Even Yan Sheng, who was a competitor, couldn't help sighing in his heart, what a fierce offensive!

  If you want money, you have money, and if you want people, you have people!

  Three sharp axes may seem simple and rude, but with one force falling ten times, a big axe can hardly parry even Yiyou!

   Obviously!

  Hard steel is definitely not a good choice for Yiyou!

  So, after a moment of silence, Vice President Zhao said: "In this case, President Yan, we might as well avoid the edge for now."

  Yan Sheng understood what Vice President Zhao meant.

  Three sharp axes are powerful, they are hard to resist.

  Since this is the case, don't resist it!

  Anyway, the game in the somatosensory cabin is more than just FPS!

  Since Xun Teng has been ruthless this time, trying his best to seize the FPS market, then stay away from them and focus on sports and racing for **** masterpieces.

  Making strengths and avoiding weaknesses, this is the benefit of walking on three legs.

  Although part of the shooting game market may be lost, it can be made up through the other two tracks, and even overtake.

Why not do it?

   "Mr. Zhao means that we give up FPS directly?"

  Yan Sheng pondered slightly:

   "But Yiyou x2's full sensory assistive technology performs best in the FPS type..."

   "You don't have to give up completely,"

  Vice President Zhao chuckled and said:

   "On the choice of shooting game manufacturers... don't we have an alternative."

   Wind of Gold!

   I heard Mr. Zhao say:

   "We must not completely empty out the shooting game sector, otherwise the advantages of full sensory assistance will not be reflected,"

   "But if we take the three tricks hard, the loss outweighs the gain for us,"

   "Then let the golden wind go into battle,"

   "Tian Ji's horse racing,"

   "Use the low-cost horse to symbolically mark Xun Teng's three axes,"

   "Then we stepped up our efforts and tried to let the other two tracks seize this opportunity to achieve corner overtaking,"

   "Anyway..."

Speaking of which.

  Old Zhao is actually a little embarrassed, knowing that his move is a bit of a loss, but it is indeed the best solution:

   "Anyway, the wind of gold... should be used to this kind of battle of winning more with less,"

   "Although in terms of cost, Golden Wind is inferior, but I believe that with Director Gu's performance..."

"Well…"

"Um…"

   "It should be... also okay?"

   In the end, Lao Zhao himself didn't believe it.

  He really couldn't make up a single sentence of this nonsense.

  How much does Wind of Gold invest?

   100 million? 200 million?

  How much is the investment of the three axes?

   Three billion? Four billion?

  Anyone who picks up a random one can knock the golden wind on the ground and explode with a hammer!

  In the case of one-on-one, there is still a ten-fold cost gap!

   What's more, this time, they want the golden wind to hit three!

  Thirty to forty times the cost gap!

  What kind of fairy game must it be to make Golden Wind come back from such a huge disadvantage? !

  Old Zhao couldn't figure it out.

  Because that is simply tan90°—it does not exist!

   This trick is actually to use the golden wind as a backing!

  Three British battles against Lu Bu, Lu Bu's combat effectiveness is outstanding!

  Golden Wind, what are these two forced money?

   Saying my name will scare you.

  This is just like three Lu Bu besieging General Lingling.

  Old Zhao even suspected that he would only be able to set up a tomb for Golden Wind—

   All the ashes of the Golden Wind had to be taken away by those three.

   Yan Sheng was very embarrassed.

  On the one hand, Lao Zhao's move is too bad. Tian Ji's horse racing at this level is like letting an elementary school student enter the octagonal cage to compete with three Tysons.

   On the other hand, Lao Zhao's method is indeed the best solution at present.

   Dilemma!

   After pondering for a while!

  Yan Sheng put his mind to one side!

   "Well, in two days, PUBG's first week sales will come out,"

   "Look at this, it should be no problem to recover the cost in the first week,"

   "While Boss Xiao Shen is happy, I will go to Binjiang personally,"

   "On the one hand, congratulate Mr. Shen, and on the other hand, take the opportunity to talk about our considerations,"

   "It's probably better for her to accept it..."

  I can't take it.

  I can't **** take it any more! !

Ah ah ah ah ah-

   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 wanted to break the certificate in her hand!

   On the table, as of 8:00 last night, the Asian Games will fax it to her, PUBG's first week sales results!

  Other games don't have this treatment!

because!

   As of last night!

   The total sales of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has broken the highest single-week sales record in the history of the Asian Games, making history!

  Sold 566,894 copies in a single week! The total sales volume is 55,555,612 yuan!

   Excluding the 10% commission, the net profit was perfectly realized in a single week, even exceeding 50 yuan!

  And what Shen Miaomiao held in her hands was the record-breaking medal certificate sent by China Entertainment Television entrusted by the Asian Games.

  I fucking...

  Shen Miaomiao almost went berserk.

   Making money is not terrible, the key is that my 10 million is included in this byd game set!

   Ten million!

   That's what I bought with a super guarantee card!

  That is so precious that it cannot be more precious, a 100-fold rebate card that can only be obtained by unlocking achievements!

   Only this one! Miss it no more!

  For this thing, I tossed and tossed for half a year, and came up with a "Left 4 Survival", and lost 100,000 to 10 million.

   Before getting it warmed up, it melted into the company's funds for free. Thinking of laying eggs and laying eggs, the infinite cycle, the situation is very good.

result!

   Half a year!

   The egg did give birth to a chicken, but he meowed and the chicken ran away! !

  Shen Miaomiao was very sad.

   Even a little phantom egg pain...

   Plop.

   Holding her breath for a while, Shen Miaomiao lay powerlessly on the table, a tear of sadness flowed down from the corner of her eye.

   aggrieved.

  Too aggrieved.

  Especially after hearing the employees outside the door rushing to tell each other, congratulating each other, and admiring "Director Gu is really a god!"

   This kind of aggrieved has reached its peak.

  Is there still justice?

  Is there still a king's law?

   Isn't this bullying honest people?

I!

   Endure the calm for a while, take a step back and think about it more and more!

   Make a sound!

  Shen Miaomiao jumped up from her seat, and when she lifted the medal certificate, she was about to knock it on her knees!

   But at this moment!

   Tuk Tuk Tuk - click.

  Chu Qingzhou knocked on the door, poked his head in: "Mr. Shen, you...? What are you doing?"

   See you!

  At this time, Shen Miaomiao was holding up the medal certificate with both hands, looking up, like an old ape holding Simba.

"I…"

  Shen Miaomiao opened her mouth:

   "Ah-ZkenyMamamy Chihuahu"
