Chapter 569 Let's meet...

mobile online games.

The heat was about to pass...

During this period, under the impact of the rotation of manure, everyone felt that it would be difficult for a real mobile online game to be released in a short period of time.

The entire industry began to cool down, leaving only a mess.

For people in the industry, speculators may be disappointed.

But those who are really optimistic about mobile games have not been affected at all. Instead, they can calm down and work hard to make their own products as soon as possible, and then surprise everyone!

As for the players.

It's even simpler. Since it's still a long way to the future, it's better to play the existing games first.

At the same time, game companies should stop hyping... It's better to make the current games first. You can continue to develop mobile games, but don't brag about it anymore.

And this is why players generally praise Linmu Studio.

Because they feel... Linmu Studio is on the same side as them.

Faced with the sudden new direction of the game, Linmu Studio did not act rashly and did not hastily announce that they would also do it.

They are not like other big companies, like rich old men who don't want to lose their current status. When facing the emerging industry, they have an attitude of "I can be uninterested, but I must not fall behind my peers".

This really wins goodwill.

In fact,

they are just like they are really not interested in 4G and mobile online games. They do their own things as usual, updating online game versions, updating switch firmware, and updating some in-game activity information...

but they don't mention anything about 4G and mobile online games.

This makes players who are not very accepting of mobile online games feel at ease, and also makes their peers feel at ease.

Players can understand it.

As for why peers feel at ease.

That's because not everyone is the second in the country, and not everyone is like Mou Feng, holding the idea of ​​waiting for the wind to come.

Linmu Studio's production capabilities are obvious to all.

No one wants to compete with them in the new generation, and no one wants to be an imitator following behind Linmu Studio... What they want to do is to be the first!

Mou Feng and Li Guangsheng, because of the reputation of being the second in the country, have been frequently impacted on the front line, so they have the current mentality and will wait for the wind to come.

The general peers don't have such a mentality... How should I put it? They are young and fearless. They admit that they can't catch up with Linmu Studio in traditional games, but they are still very confident in new fields.

Because everyone is on the same starting line, right?

So Linmu Studio is not interested in mobile online games now, which is also a good thing for them.

Their idea is very simple-Linmu Studio, this old thing, can't keep up with the times now, I have to work hard secretly and then surpass it!

Well...

So.

When players and peers have such ideas.

It is conceivable.

Linmu Studio quietly broke out that there will be games logged in to mobile phones, or PC and mobile phones. How big is the impact on them...

It's really silent.

Linmu Studio quietly... made a big wave!

This news is really unexpected!

So much so that many players even think that the screenshot of the player's email that posted the message is photoshopped.

However, several players came out later and confirmed the authenticity of this matter.

Everyone had to admit it.

Linmu Studio is really going to make a mobile online game-no, it has already made it!

"Mobile game??? Testing??? Did I travel through time?!"

"Where's that friend who just commented on another post, 'Linmu Studio should make a mobile game secretly, and when the time is right, announce it directly! No more suspense! Amaze everyone!'? Come out quickly!!! Confess to me, are you an insider of Linmu Studio?"

"What the hell... is it really coming? And it's made now? How long has it been since 4G was officially announced for commercial use? It won't be a shoddy product like the one a while ago, right?"

"The person above, it definitely won't be! Do you think Linmu Studio is that kind of company? Have they ever launched a shoddy game? Even if you don't like some of their types of games, you have to admit that their games have always been among the best, right? So do you think they will fool the players this time?"

"Sigh... Mainly because of those crappy mobile games a while ago, everyone suffered from PTSD. Linmu Studio suddenly made a comeback and announced the launch of mobile games in such a short time. It's not that they are going to make it, but they just released it directly. This is really worrying!

And what is the situation with this dual-end login? Are they independent of each other? Or can the data be shared? If the data is shared, how can we ensure fairness for players on the computer and mobile phones? After all, the hardware of the two is very different.

One side has a keyboard and mouse, and the other side only has a glass plate. Then, which phone will the game be logged in to? Players with different mobile phones have different hardware. How to solve this problem? These are all problems... Before the game is revealed and before it is actually played, no one knows how they solve these problems.

Normal players will be a little worried."

"Yeah, I am a little worried when I think about it carefully, but I am also looking forward to it... After all, it is a mobile game made by Linmu Studio! They have the future in their eyes! So what will it be like?"

"Indeed, no matter how many reasons there are for pessimism, it is still very exciting, because this is a mobile game produced by Linmu Studio, and they have never let anyone down... So come on, some big guys who have passed the quiz, come and explain how to participate in the game test!"

"Here we go! First-hand information! Players who choose the mobile test must go to Pengcheng on April 20th for on-site testing! If you can't go, you can only participate in the PC test of the game. Linmu Studio specifically stated that the gameplay of the PC and mobile games is exactly the same, so everyone can decide based on their own situation!"

"Report! New information! The E-sports Festival box logo appeared on the homepage of the Vaporwave game platform!"

"The game is exactly the same, the E-sports Festival logo...hiss, damn it!"

"..." "

At noon .

Linmu Studio sent an email to all players who passed the 'Fireside Party Ticket' Q&A, exposing a game called "Hearthstone Legend" with dual-terminal login.

In the afternoon.

A box 'logo' that kept jumping and reorganizing appeared on the homepage of the Vaporwave game platform.

Then.

The news that Linmu Studio was going to make a mobile game was like a huge ripple on the water, starting from the player forum and stirring in circles... impacting the nerves of all relevant people.

The wind that Mou Feng had been waiting for for a long time finally came...

After seeing the logo on the homepage of the Vaporwave game platform, he immediately hung up Yu Tianbo's phone call and returned to the player forum. Then soon, he also saw the news of "Hearthstone Legend" revealed by the players.

In an instant, he was ecstatic.

"I knew it! I knew it!! They are optimistic!!!" Mou Feng looked at the screen, waving his fists excitedly, feeling relieved and almost crying.

However,

Mou Feng is Mou Feng.

For other colleagues who are not afraid of tigers,

this news is a bit hard to accept...

No.

Didn't the old Linmu Studio lie on the bed because it couldn't keep up with the times? How did it suddenly sit up! ?

And didn't it announce that it would make a mobile game? But it even made a game?

All the colleagues who saw this news were frantically questioning.

And they are not the end of the ripples.

Soon.

The mobile phone manufacturers who are currently fighting have also received the news.

Linmu Studio? Has a mobile game been made?

What kind of mobile game? Who will cooperate with? Which mobile phone will it be launched on?

These instantly became the most interesting questions for mobile phone manufacturers.

After all, this is Linmu Studio, a game company that can be regarded as a unique one in China. Although

the reputation of mobile games has been a bit bad recently, it is mainly due to the mess of other small companies.

Now the fate of Linmu Studio, the undisputed number one in China... is different.

It would have been fine if Linmu Studio showed no interest in mobile games... but now they have even made games.

Mobile phone manufacturers want them!

So soon, they started to catch the traitors and began to ask their peers indirectly who had reached a cooperation relationship with them.

Finally,

in just half a day,

even the investors were affected by the news released by Linmu Studio.

Before the closing,

the game-related stocks that had returned to calm all ushered in a wave of increases.

The investors' ideas are simple.

Linmu Studio has entered the market.

This means there is still a chance... at least before their game is announced, there is still a chance!

At this moment,

the power of Linmu Studio as the industry leader is undoubtedly revealed.

It's just... it's hard for Mu Wanqing.

Not long after the news spread,

her phone was bombarded with calls.

Lin Yao's phone number is difficult to get, and most of the people who know it are the top executives of Linmu Studio and her closest people.

But Mu Wanqing is in charge of external affairs, so as long as she has connections, it is still easy to get it.

Most of the people who called were from mobile phone manufacturers.

They wanted to cooperate.

As soon as the call was connected and they introduced themselves, they began to make conditions, and often as soon as Mu Wanqing said no, the other party would increase the price... as if they were determined to take over Lin Mu Studio.

It was... outrageous.

"Thank you for your hard work. Otherwise, you should turn off your phone. After a few days, they should not contact you anymore."

Lin Yao also knew Mu Wanqing's situation in the past half day, and smiled and gave her a suggestion.

Mu Wanqing shook her head gently, but just as she was shaking her head, her phone vibrated again.

She glanced at it, then answered the phone. While the other party was talking, she apologized directly, explained that she had no intention of cooperating, and hung up the phone.

Then, she said: "If you turn off the phone, you might miss important calls. Forget it, it's okay, I'm used to it."

"...Okay."

Lin Yao didn't persuade her anymore. To persuade her again would be to question Miss Mu's work ability. She changed the subject: "By the way, how did Youmei respond to the inquiry about confidentiality?"

"The risk is very small. 4G has been very popular recently, and most factories are working at full capacity. Although our mobile phones are highly recognizable, we threw smoke bombs, and the factory employees thought they were just ordinary mobile phones and didn't react much. In addition, there are restrictions on the venue where photos cannot be taken and the constraints of the confidentiality agreement... From the current point of view, the possibility of leakage is very low."

Mu Wanqing organized her words and replied: "The main reason is that Linmu Studio is a game company, and Linmu Financial Holdings is a former real estate company. It is really difficult to connect with the mobile phone industry. Even if the acquisition of Youmei was not a secret, it would be difficult for ordinary people to imagine that we could develop a mobile phone in a short period of time.

This is probably the reason why these mobile phone manufacturers bombarded me with calls. After all, they didn't expect it."

"That's true... But we can't be too relaxed. The next step is probably the real test. If we can keep it secret, our press conference will be halfway to success."

Lin Yao nodded gently, then thought of something and immediately added another sentence.

Now only the news about the mobile game has been announced.

The press conference has not been disclosed yet.

But the press conference will definitely not be kept secret until the time of the event. It will definitely be announced in advance.

By then, interested players and game media will definitely think of Youmei, which was acquired by Linmu Studio, and then try their best to dig out inside information. After all

, the fact that Linmu Studio, a game company, makes mobile phones is itself a hot topic.

And if they dig up something, and the various parameters of the mobile phone are revealed before the press conference, it will have a certain impact on the press conference, although this impact has both bad and good aspects.

But Lin Yao is sure.

This is definitely not as good as everyone not knowing about the mobile phone, and then watching the press conference with unknown and full of expectations!

"I understand, I will specifically remind you."

Mu Wanqing nodded gently and agreed.

"Well, now we just have to wait for the time to come... Hehe, Miss Mu, I don't know why, I'm quite excited."

Lin Yao straightened her waist on the chair with some excitement, and 'jumped' lightly.

Her chest was shaking.

Very eye-catching.

"Then do you want me to dance to celebrate?" Mu Wanqing tilted her head and asked with a smile.

"How come you still remember it?" Lin Yao was stunned, "Then dance!"

"Not now."

Mu Wanqing shook her head slowly, then smiled gently: "Unless the press conference is over, and then at home."

Lin Yao: "..."

She always felt that Mu Wanqing was lying to her.

...

The next day.

Linmu Studio's "Hearthstone" is still the hottest topic in the player circle.

Players speculated about the type of this game, the time of release, the hardware it will be launched on, and most importantly... the playability.

In short, there are all kinds of speculations.

And the LOGO on the homepage of Linmu Studio's Vaporwave game platform no longer jumped and reorganized today, but was frozen at the moment when the box was about to be opened.

Obviously, this LOGO, which debuted at last year's e-sports festival and impressed all players, is ready to surprise players again.

This has also become a topic of discussion among players.

They discussed what Linmu Studio would announce after the box was opened, and they all said all kinds of things.

But... no one was right.

On the other hand.

Linmu Studio's plan to make mobile games has also become the traffic code of the game media.

There are those who are optimistic, and of course there are those who are pessimistic.

[Linmu Studio enters the field of mobile online games, and the mobile online game field is about to usher in the first epoch-making game that will change the players' cognition! ] [Linmu Studio 's entry into the field of mobile

online games, is it a gimmick? Or is it a bet on the future? ]

These two reports.

The titles start exactly the same, but the content is very different.

In the previous article, it was felt that Linmu Studio's entry would become the savior of setting mobile game standards, because their previous production capabilities were very reliable.

The next article, starting from the pile of rubbish mobile games launched when mobile online games were extremely popular some time ago, explored the possibility of developing games on mobile phones as a carrier, and came to a pessimistic conclusion.

The author of this report thinks that Linmu Studio's mobile game this time is likely to be a gimmick. The evidence is that their "Hearthstone Legend" is a dual-end login, and they have never directly said that they want to make mobile games...

So it is very likely that they will still focus on PC games, which should not disappoint people, but the mobile games will most likely be left unfinished.

Linmu Studio just doesn't want to fall behind and throws out gimmicks. Don't have too much expectation.

And this also represents the two ideas of many domestic peers besides Tianhu.

Seeing Linmu Studio enter the market, I feel that I have no chance and am very pessimistic.

And.

Seeing Linmu Studio enter the market and make a mobile game in such a short time, I think they are no different from those speculators and will fall.

And these two groups of people think that what they think is almost right.

And time.

Slowly passed by with many doubts and many optimistic voices.

April 4.

The box logo on the homepage of the Vaporwave gaming platform has a more obvious gap.

At the same time, Switch users found that after the new firmware update, the homepage did not fill the game window, and there was a chance that an Easter egg would appear.

It was a rectangular object wrapped in a ball of light...

Soon.

This Easter egg screenshot was spread.

April 5.

Linmu Studio's official website.

Some players also found an Easter egg. The entrance was at the top of the webpage, a link with a square logo.

After clicking it.

You will also see a rectangular object wrapped in a ball of light, but this time, the outline of the object inside can be barely seen clearly, and the light ball at the top is much thinner. Indistinctly, it seems that a speaker can be seen...

April 6.

The Vaporwave gaming platform suddenly launched six new store pages!

The names are very strange.

They are Angry Birds, Plants vs. Zombies, Fruit Ninja, Temple Run, Linmu Game Center, and Hearthstone.

These store pages have no introduction, no pictures, and the only download button is still dark.

After the player clicks the download button, the platform will pop up a striking reminder-"This device is not supported."

And after a series of game store pages went online, not long after.

Another store page went online.

This time, the name of the store page is equally strange, called-Linmu Future S1.

But this time.

This store page doesn't even have a download button, but a purchase button instead...

The button is still dark, and clicking it will pop up a striking reminder-"The release time has not yet arrived."

And after this store page went online.

After the previous two days of preparation.

Everyone understood.

Even if many people still look unbelievable.

Even if many people still think that Linmu Studio is joking.

But more people have already understood that this is not a joke!

After excluding all impossible factors, no matter how unbelievable the remaining is, that is the truth!

At that moment.

All players were blown up...

Tianyu headquarters.

Yu Tianbo has been looking for a mobile phone manufacturer to cooperate with Linmu Studio.

Tianhu didn't agree to his cooperation request in the end, and then Linmu Studio said it wanted to make a mobile game and had already made it, so of course he wanted to cooperate with them.

But in the past few days,

he asked his peers indirectly.

But he found that no one in the industry had reached a cooperation relationship with Linmu Studio.

This is really strange.

After all, for mobile games, you must have a mobile phone, right?

Why is there not even a mobile phone manufacturer that has negotiated with Linmu Studio?

Then.

Just when he was feeling strange, he saw the store page of 'Linmu Future S1' that Linmu Studio had laid for a long time and finally launched.

He is not a fool.

Soon.

He also knew the purpose of Linmu Studio.

He was stunned.

Then...

It is impossible to be terrified, he is not a game developer.

Yu Tianbo just shook his head and wanted to laugh.

So that's it.

This company that is so praised by game players... turns out to be so ignorant?

...

At the same time.

Pengcheng.

Jian Yaowen, the head of the structural design department of Youmei, was on a business trip to the assembly plant. On the way to dinner, he met an acquaintance.

A junior at Youmei who had left the company mocked him and said that Wei Guang had a problem with his brain...

The two met on the way to dinner.

Jian Yaowen was a little surprised to see the other person. Thinking that they knew each other, he wanted to say hello.

But before he could say anything,

Wei Guang spotted him.

This young man yelled directly, "Old Jian? You resigned too!?"

Then, without waiting for Jian Yaowen to answer, he immediately said to himself, "I said that Youmei had no future! At that time, we changed bosses and the future was uncertain. There was no need to stay there. I told you at the beginning that getting compensation was the most important thing! See, was I right? By the way, did you get compensation when you resigned this time?

- Oh, no, you should have changed jobs and had no money.

Haha, I asked you to go down with me to protest, and then get compensation and leave, but you didn't go. Now you regret it!"

Jian Yaowen was stunned, then remembered that he was near the assembly plant and was surrounded by mobile phone factories. He probably understood why Wei Guang felt that he had changed jobs.

He shook his head slightly with some amusement, and then replied: "I didn't quit, nor did I change jobs. I'm still in Youmei."

"Still in Youmei?"

Wei Guang was surprised: "Are you really planning to keep working there? Did they give you a raise? Let me tell you, what's the point of increasing the salary? Now 4G is booming, and everyone is scrambling for the market. There are opportunities everywhere!

Youmei itself has a bad foundation and was about to go bankrupt. Now outsiders are managing insiders. It will only be worse in the 4G era. It is unknown whether it can survive in the future. What's the point of staying?

You see, after I changed jobs and came to Tianyu, I directly became a senior engineer, and my salary doubled compared to Youmei! You have more experience than me. If you had changed jobs at that time, you would not only get compensation, but you might also be able to make further progress."

"...I really want to keep working there."

Jian Yaowen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he did not say anything about his current situation, but simply replied.

"You just don't know how to adapt."

Wei Guang seemed to be a little disappointed: "You missed such a good opportunity at that time, and now you still think you have made a profit, it's really..."

"Actually, staying has its advantages."

Jian Yaowen shook his head and suddenly felt that there was no need to continue the small talk.

Because he found that the person in front of him was too self-righteous. He

always thought that he was right and everyone else was stupid.

At that time, staying and taking the compensation and leaving were other people's choices.

There is no such thing...

It's like a diode.

So, he was ready to get up and leave.

But Wei Guang didn't seem to be very good at observing people's expressions. Hearing what Jian Yaowen said, he shouted again: "Is there any benefit to staying? What's the point of lying to yourself... When I left, you said I would regret it. Do you think I regret it now? What are the benefits? Has You Media made any moves recently?"

"..."

Jian Yaowen heard this and immediately laughed happily.

He stood up, patted Wei Guang's shoulder gently, and then smiled: "You will know in a while... Of course, if you want to know now, you can also open the homepage of the Vaporwave game platform, which has what you want to know." After

that,

he left directly.

I didn't want to say anything more.

Wei Guang sat in the same place and slowly typed a question mark.

Then he muttered softly that there was something wrong...

However.

He did remember this.

After lunch, he

went back to his workstation.

According to his memory, he searched for the Vaporwave game platform.

Although he spelled the word wrong.

But the search engine still gave him the correct result.

Click on the official website.

The page jumped.

Then.

The web version of the Vaporwave gaming platform appeared on the screen.

At the top.

The e-sports festival logo of Linmu Studio, the box slowly opened...

Then, a pure black background covered the entire page, and a line of words slowly emerged.

[Come and see the future! ]

[Linmu Future S1 mobile phone launch conference, April 20, 7pm! ]

[Stay tuned! ]
