Chapter 205 The main text of the ending is finished!
After the variety show was broadcast, Ye Xuan truly felt what it meant to be "hot".
Right now, the most discussed game on a “certain well-known” forum is “Dream Game”, and the most discussed gamer is also He Yixuan.
The popularity is growing at a rate far beyond expectations.
He looked at the data sent by Sister Lin and felt that he could indeed be called the number one real-life NPC in the industry.
After all, this is unprecedented in the entire gaming industry.
It was unimaginable that an employee could make a game popular before he achieved it.
There are many reasons why a game becomes popular among the public. It is not uncommon for a game to become popular because of the creators of the game, but it is unprecedented to reach his level.
Under his influence, "Dream Game" has become a phenomenal game, which is a smooth journey that this newly-started game company never expected.
You know, even Shazhou Leng and his Shazhou Company, who are regarded as legends in the industry, did not have such a smooth start.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to call Ye Xuan the lucky star of Youmeng.
"Xiao Xuan, you've really become a big star now," Sister Lin took out a stack of posters and even a signature board, "I don't know if I can still get your autograph now."
"Sister Lin, please stop joking with me." He quickly signed his signature, becoming more and more proficient as he did so. He thought to himself that those colleagues who had taken his signature just for fun were really doing well.
He saw on the Internet these days that someone was selling his autograph for a high price. However, the official Youmeng team came out to persuade them and suggested that it be taken off the shelves.
Xiao Qian was eating dessert during afternoon tea and sighed, "I didn't expect those variety show fans would actually register for our company's game. I thought those fans never played games, not to mention that ours is a holographic game with a certain threshold. Well, when there are more players, I hope that chef can develop more delicious desserts."
The real NPC nodded with a fork dipped in butter: "A few days ago, I posted a screen recording of eating dessert in the game on my personal account, and there were many comments below saying that they would play the game just for the food."
This was not just talk. Within a week, he received many rewards, all of which were exclusive desserts for new users after successfully registering.
"Okay, I knew it was the right decision to recruit you into our company. Look, the company has developed so well since you came. Young people, you must reflect your own value in the value you create, so that you can become a person who contributes to the company and society." The interviewer was still saying that, but the praise in his eyes was not fake.
"I will work hard," Ye Xuan smiled, "I will definitely live up to the company's training!"
There's actually no need to respond sincerely to words like this, but his words came from the heart.
"Dream Travel" now has a bright future, and many people want to poach the real-life NPCs who have created miracles.
Even Mr. Leng, who has rarely publicly expressed his optimism about newcomers in the industry in recent years, praised Ye Xuan in an interview and revealed his intention to learn from him in order to train real-life NPC employees for Shazhou Company.
Now when you open Youmeng’s official forum, the front page is filled with posts from the “Real Person NPC” section.
The forum masters who originally only posted guides have joined the discussion, but they are still analyzing the performance of real-life NPCs in the game one by one.
As for the variety show that added the final fuel to the popularity of Ye Xuan and "Dream Travel", it also became the hot variety show of the season.
Although his "fans" didn't grow as dramatically in the millions compared to other people who appeared on the show, it was still an astonishing increase.
You know, he was originally expected to become a permanent guest of that program, but later it was changed to a video appearance, the duration was not very long, and the camera was relatively focused. It is very rare to have such amount of attention.
Ye Xuan is a well-deserved contributor to Youmeng and the dawn of hope for the entire holographic gaming industry.
You know, before he became a real-life NPC, countless people were not optimistic about this form of game, and many of the original investors also planned to withdraw their investment.
But after he brought real-life NPCs and holographic games to the public's attention time and time again, the industry seemed to have been infused with fresh air and gained new vitality.
Therefore, even the support projects for holographic games are now being prepared in full swing.
The big boss of Youmeng said that since their game is the best at present, they are likely to get the most funds and resources, and all of this is thanks to the NPC.
After the top leaders spoke, Ye Xuan's salary level made a qualitative leap.
Judging from his salary alone, he is almost on par with the core technical personnel.
Is this the salary he can get as an undergraduate graduate in a non-game-related major?
Looking at the string of numbers on the payroll, he just wanted to say - he deserves it.
This money didn't fall from the sky. He actually paid for it, so it's only natural that he gets a reward.
He totally deserves such a high salary.
However, even if you have money, you can’t squander it too much. Who knows how this industry will develop?
Even experts can't say for sure. Before he entered the industry, everyone was pessimistic about him.
I don’t know whether the situation among my peers will improve now.
Ye Xuan didn't care much about how other real-life NPCs were doing, and he never studied whether their acting skills were better than his.
He doesn't intend to compare himself with others. He thinks it's already very difficult to do his best.
I'm not a professional actor, and I don't think I'm that passionate about games, so being able to achieve this level is pretty good.
But he didn't intend to stop there. He would try his best to do better in areas that he could do well, which would justify a higher salary.
He is the most watched gamer right now, and his competitors are waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
Will this give them what they want? Obviously not.
Then, show them better results.
Let them know that he is not just lucky for a moment, he also has strength besides luck.
As for those who come to him to "learn skills", it's not that he doesn't want to teach, it's mainly because the company doesn't allow it.
Want to learn? Sure, as long as you join us at Youmeng.
Unfortunately, those people were basically sent by other game companies, and they have no plans to change jobs for the time being.
Among the other companies, they are also the most promising real-life NPCs. If Youmeng comes, won’t they definitely be suppressed?
They won't do that.
There are more and more TV interviews, online self-media interviews, etc., and one of the most well-known real-life NPCs will receive multiple such invitations in a day.
Yexuan, Yexuan, you are really famous now, so you should be careful with what you say and do.
Facing the camera, he was a little speechless.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. It’s better to speak less.
But if what you say is too superficial, you will be accused of being insincere.
Come on, who would share their business secrets with others?
If he had revealed any in-depth inside information, his job might not be so secure.
In the gaming industry, some people will even poach outstanding employees from other companies and hide them in their own companies, preventing them from doing any meaningful work.
What if he was sent to the cryostasis?
He didn't fit in very well in Youmeng because he didn't play games, and now you want to trick him during the interview?
Who is insincere?
No matter what the outside world says about him, he still sticks to his own way and speaks the official statement prepared in advance when facing interviews.
In fact, this kind of cliché is quite useful. At least it is not easy to make mistakes.
These days, Ye Xuan has been receiving some messages, whether it is private messages in the background of his personal account, or in the comment section and reposts, there are always people saying that they want to see him play a new role again.
That’s right, he has been busy with work in real life these days and he hasn’t played the game for a week.
Some people just suggested that he should not give up his job. They could see how much work he did outside and knew that he was not idle nor was he hidden.
However, some people are a bit extreme, saying that he has forgotten his roots after becoming famous and has no intention of continuing to do his job properly. He just wants to lure users and then run away.
There was no way. There were too many messages like this. Even Sister Lin was alarmed.
Ye Xuan started a live broadcast one night and talked seriously about his plans and why he had not been a real NPC in the game these days.
The vast majority of viewers also expressed their understanding. Generally speaking, games are not updated all the time, so why are real-life NPCs required to seamlessly integrate with new characters?
It's not like he's quitting. Taking a break from this will help him to play his next role well.
How come when some actors don't take on new roles for half a year or even longer, and just appear on variety shows and do business, some people say that they are too immersed in the role and need time to switch, but when it comes to playing real-life NPCs, those people change their tune?
Seeing everyone’s support and recognition, it would be a lie if Ye Xuan said he was not moved.
I am someone who is needed.
It was just an option at the beginning when he couldn't find other jobs, but now it has become a decision that has made him successful and has also made achievements for this industry.
Perhaps this can be considered as a kind of arrangement of fate.
He feels that he can play more interesting characters and bring a more realistic gaming experience to players.
In holographic games, real NPCs may not be necessary, but people nowadays believe that this is definitely the icing on the cake.
He was the one who added the first flower, and after that, he thought he could add a garden.
What should I choose for the next task?
The description in the prayer manual should not be too deceptive, he really believes it.
"Dream Travel" seems to have quite a few plot copies, and I don't know if he needs to act them out one by one.
In that case, how many characters would he have to play?
But this is his job, so it would be best if it was stable.
Even if your acting skills aren't that great, you can make up for it with hard work.
Well, next, let’s do our best!
NPC, that's fine too.
