Chapter 107 Crazy Elf Fans
Among all Yu Mian's works so far, "Reborn Star Soldier King" is indeed a unique super-long upgrade stream.
Yu Mian and editor Shax discussed the plan of a total of ten volumes. Since the first four volumes were published, they have continued to publish serially at a normal speed, and now it has been published to about the seventh volume.
The protagonist Lin Mu upgrades from a garbage planet to a map. Although the refreshing plot of various adventures, treasure hunting, helping people and meeting big guys is not as sensational as when it first appeared, it has definitely cultivated a large and silent group of loyal readers in the vast interstellar space.
There are even many middle-aged people in this fan group. They don't usually use the various social software on the Star Network, but once the offline bookstore publishes and distributes physical books, they will always buy them as soon as possible.
It can be said that "Reborn Star Soldier King" as an old classic upgrade flow work has quietly brought Yu Mian a fairly stable income from royalties.
However, compared with "Reborn Again" which has become increasingly popular due to the adaptation of "Heavenly New Star" and "The God of Food" which has been urged to be more serious because of the live broadcast easter eggs, the public opinion of "Reborn Star Soldier King" seems slightly inconspicuous.
At first, when "Reborn Again" started to be updated frequently, the fans of Bingwang felt that we didn't care about those young fans who were interested in romance. After all, our long-form career style is about a quiet stream running deep and a strong accumulation of knowledge.
Then, Mr. Yutangmian started another book "The God of Food" and started to be updated frequently. The fans of Bingwang gradually became anxious, but they couldn't bear to see Mr. Yutangmian appear in the live broadcast, so everyone just endured it.
Now it's our turn for "Reborn Interstellar Soldier King" to enjoy the treatment of frequent updates, right?
For example, two books a month, and the kind that is directly updated and completed in two consecutive months!
So everyone began to look forward to it with this mood.
But what the fans of Bingwang soon waited for was the news that "The God of Food" would continue to be updated and the adapted game "Taoyuan Restaurant" would be officially released.
In fact, "Taoyuan Restaurant" is also a rare life-style game in the interstellar era, and it almost does not contain any interstellar mecha battle competition elements that are recognized as the most popular among young game players today.
Therefore, even though it was adapted from Mr. Yutangmian's popular serialized novel, the copyright of this game was not very optimistic in the industry at first.
Most people in the game industry once believed that this was more likely to be a fan's internal pursuit, and it might not be very profitable after the official adaptation was released to the market, so the copyright quotation was generally conservative.
Some even directly stated at the copyright promotion conference held by Huanyu that Mr. Yutangmian's novel might still be suitable for film and television adaptation, and that it still lacked a market foundation to make it into a game. Even if the copyright was sold, it could not be calculated according to the previous price standard.
The copyright department of Huanyu Market was very anxious when facing the collective price-cutting actions of a group of large game companies.
[Crispy Shark: Those prices are simply disgusting. They also said that your royalties already account for the majority of your income, and there will be film and television copyrights, so they hope to get the game copyright of the new book at a low price. Obviously, the immature trial version was so popular before, but they refused to admit it! ]
Editor Shax was even more angry in front of Yu Mian for a long time.
I can only say that it’s a good thing that the author was very busy with script preparation recently and didn’t attend in person, otherwise he would have been pissed off by those large game companies.
Although it’s not strange to Yu Mian. After all,
I took a look at the main game styles of these large game companies, all of which are cool, exciting and highly competitive confrontation games. Players compete with each other in various battle power rankings and technical rankings. In their eyes, farming games like "Taoyuan Hotel" are probably so fun that they can’t even play them. It is definitely
in the interests of these companies to keep the price as low as possible to avoid risks and obtain the copyright.
[Yu: But the price is not the key point. What I’m worried about is that these companies themselves don’t recognize this style of game. Even if they buy the copyright, they may not necessarily use their best strength to form a team to produce it seriously. 】
【Crispy Shark: That's true, alas...】
However, just when Huanyu gradually began to doubt whether it should continue to promote the copyright incubation of this game, several programmers in the technical department of Huanyu were a little unwilling to see the previous game stagnate.
After tentatively sending an email to the mysterious god who sent the source code and game framework in a package, the other party actually replied after a period of silence!
He directly asked in the email whether he could personally invest in purchasing the copyright and form a team to develop the game.
It's just that the copyright price may not be very high, but he is willing to take only half of the income and share the rest.
In this regard, Huanyu finally finalized this bold and novel copyright plan with the support of Yu Mian.
As a result, those large game companies that thought they would get the copyright of the game "Taoyuan Hotel" at a low price did not expect that Huanyu would find other buyers besides them. For a while, all kinds of bad news came out.
However, after hearing the news that the adaptation of the game "Taoyuan Hotel" was in trouble, many of Yu Mian's old friends took the initiative to make a move.
An Bang contacted professional artists and painters, and the game master Noel even invested a sum of start-up funds in his personal name.
In addition, Yu Mian himself also took out a part of the royalties to add to it, and this emerging game company was quickly established and began to promote game production.
As the production of the game "Taoyuan Restaurant" progressed rapidly, various newly exposed game contents triggered heated discussions and expectations among fans. Yu Mian gradually became convinced that this mysterious developer seemed to have an extraordinary obsession and love for the book "God of Food".
Moreover, the other party was the first person who refused to meet with him offline to discuss, and his speaking style was also very cold.
[Deerqin: Don't worry, since I promised to make this game, I will definitely do it well. I am not very good at communicating with people offline, and meeting to discuss may disappoint you. ] [Deerqin:
At present, several rounds of testing are almost complete, and the content of the official version is rich enough. Of course, the outline of the whole book you sent me in advance will be promoted simultaneously with the version update after the game is released. 】
Derqin looked at the seemingly cold message he had sent on his computer and felt inexplicably upset for several minutes.
He was obviously very happy that the fish noodle teacher personally cared about his progress, but why did he feel like he was impatient after replying?
Wouldn't he be disliked?
Especially when he first tried to ask if he could purchase the copyright personally, Deerqin was a little worried that he would be laughed at.
But what was unexpected was that Mr. Yutangmian actually gave up those large monopoly game companies and chose himself, and even took out his personal royalties to invest in this new game company in the start-up stage.
Isn't this equivalent to getting investment from a favorite author and making the same game as his favorite novel?
It's simply too happy!
However, every time when communicating with Mr. Yutangmian in person about the game, the more nervous Deerqin was, the more he often felt that he had said something wrong, and he almost didn't know how to organize his language.
Yu Mian didn't think as much as Deerqin did. He simply thought that this was probably the arrogance and confidence of a lonely god? Can one person carry the whole game?
[Yu: Yeah, okay. I am not questioning your progress, I am just worried that you may have any needs that you are embarrassed to ask. If you encounter funding gaps or other problems during the development process, please feel free to contact me.
Fortunately, "Taoyuan Restaurant" is not a 3A game masterpiece, otherwise Yu Mian feels that his current investment in royalties is really not enough to burn this talented producer.
Delqin looked at the message he received, and the iconic pointed ears of the elves are about to become popular again.
Is it my illusion?
The tone of the message sent by the fish soup noodle teacher inexplicably reminds me of the other party's voice reading it out during the live broadcast.
If I were not an elf, I would probably really want to meet the fish soup noodle teacher.
But since Delqin came to the Federation Star, he has encountered too many bad things that happened offline.
Many times, once they meet, friends who used to get along naturally will become overly enthusiastic and deliberately flattering, causing Deqin to feel that they should not meet again.
He couldn't imagine the fish noodle teacher becoming like that.
At this moment, starting the beta version of the game, Deqin, sitting on the swing in the backyard of the Taoyuan Hotel in the holographic scene, silently felt the peace and tranquility of the world in the book.
He wanted to make the most perfect game of this paradise described by the fish noodle teacher and bring it to this starry sky.
When this game is released to his hometown, Deqin feels that the descendants of the elves will definitely fall in love with this game.
Maybe they will be able to understand his career choice?
And during the serialization of this period, the plot of "The God of Food", a system of farming and food writing, has become more and more exciting.
The chili specialty brought back by the previous inspection team has indeed caused heated discussions on the main planet.
When Zheng Duozhi returned home and placed the chili sauce specialty on the table, everyone at home who tasted it was deeply shocked by the wonderful taste. After
rushing to eat it, they even urged Zheng Duozhi to continue to go to Taoyuan Mountain to buy some back, which was what Zheng Duozhi wanted, because he was really curious about the young boss.
So Lu Zhen gradually became familiar with this mysterious customer from the main planet who was generous, and occasionally he would specially leave some new products for Zheng Duozhi to take back.
Now Lu Zhen's Taoyuan Restaurant not only has spicy feasts, hot pot delicacies and vanilla desserts, but also live streaming sales under the guidance of the system is booming.
[“This copper stove hot pot is not expensive. If you buy it and the whole family gathers together to eat hot pot, the atmosphere is particularly lively and wonderful. It is very suitable for use during festivals…”
Lu Zhen in the camera is smiling and chatting with fans from all over the stars in the live broadcast room.
And this magical food live broadcast has become famous from being ignored at the beginning.
After all, the various delicacies and local specialties displayed in Lu Zhen’s live broadcast room are so fragrant and unique!
Occasionally, tourists who randomly stray into this live broadcast room, once they fall in and smell the fragrance, they can’t get out directly, and their wallets are easily taken away by Lu Zhen with a smile and a few words.
[Every month, I run to Boss Lu’s live broadcast room as soon as I get my salary. It’s really the start of the salary recovery plan! Mainly, this is too delicious, right?]
[As soon as Boss Lu introduced it, my salary card was emptied. Now I really want to go to Taoyuan Mountain to see it. Is Boss Lu as good-looking as he is in the live broadcast room? =w=]
[What, buy gourmet specialties and give the boss a gift? Hehe, then I have to buy more!]
Especially Lu Zhen's appearance is cheerful and handsome, and he is also very attractive when introducing gourmet food.
Every time the system releases a live broadcast task, Lu Zhen can always complete it smoothly and get various novel and interesting rewards, and the content of the live broadcast is getting richer and richer.
"Everyone is very welcome to visit Taoyuan Mountain. The style here is very different from that of Central Star. It is very relaxing to come here for a vacation."
In response to the curiosity and enthusiasm of netizens, Lu Zhen also showed the bright peach blossoms and the sparkling clear river water all over the back mountain.
The natural beauty without any trace of technology and artificiality instantly made the fans in the live broadcast room exclaim.
[Oh my God, is this real? Isn't it a holographic game background? It's so beautiful that it doesn't look like the real world! ]
[Sesame is here! Boss, go and RUA it! We want to see Sesame~]
And when Lu Zhen was showing it, there were sharp-eyed netizens who instantly discovered the panda Sesame in the bamboo forest.
Since the time when he stole the gift that Lu Zhen had prepared for fans to draw and was live-broadcasted, this little guy has become a veritable Internet celebrity.
Many fans come to Lu Zhen's live broadcast room. In addition to tasting delicious food and ordering various specialties, what they look forward to most is watching Lu Zhen RUA the panda.
"But the hair of sesame is not that soft and fluffy. Instead, it is a bit prickly. I can share the touch with everyone."
Lu Zhen once again turned on the live touch sharing, and as expected, there were bursts of screams in the barrage.
[I touched sesame! So cute, so cute——]
[I am really super jealous of Boss Lu. He has mountains, water, delicious food, and RUA the panda. Does Boss Lu still need a partner? ]
However, every time the question of whether Boss Lu is single or not is mentioned, the familiar fan will appear in the live broadcast room to reward him.
[Reward Xinghai X10][Duo: Sesame is very cute, you can feed it more bamboo next time. ]
When Lu Zhen saw the familiar ID, he was sure that it was Zheng Duozhi who was secretly watching his live broadcast in his busy schedule.
Although nominally he was investigating the subsequent development of Taoyuan Mountain, Lu Zhen always felt that Zheng Duozhi also liked everything about Taoyuan Mountain very much, and he was always in a particularly relaxed mood.
"We are going to expand a small B&B inn in the backyard soon. You can see the peach blossoms all over the mountain from the window, and there will be ten guest rooms for online lottery!"
"And there will be chocolate tastings, which is the new product to be promoted next quarter. The pure handmade chocolate is smooth and delicate, and the taste is also worth looking forward to."
Lu Zhen showed the cocoa fruit in his hand at the end of the live broadcast, which undoubtedly made everyone curious.
The previous vanilla dessert has already made everyone crazy to place orders, what is the chocolate dessert this time! 】
【So what is the chocolate dessert this time! ? ? 】
【I am also crazy about it, damn, how come it has become the last page again, Mr. Fish Soup Noodles! ? 】
【Oh no, I have become a netizen in the book, and I am also hooked by this chocolate. Mr. TwT, why can't you write more? 】
Countless netizens in the starry sky are enthusiastically chasing "The God of Food", but they never expected to be stuck on the new dessert chocolate again.
The vanilla ice cream before almost fascinated everyone, but the fish noodle teacher has launched a new dessert in the blink of an eye.
So how can this cocoa fruit become chocolate?
[A bowl of fish noodle soup V: Let's take a look at what chocolate looks like in advance =w= and the game "Taoyuan Restaurant" adapted from the original work of "The God of Food" is about to be officially released. Readers who pre-order can participate in the lottery of 10,000 chocolate candies! [Photo][Link]]
In addition to this update, Yu Mian also released a lottery star blog to coincide with the release of the game, and the appearance of chocolate, a killer weapon, also made the popularity rise.
[Star Sea Medal: As usual, I have to repost as a denominator [smirk] // Repost]
[Feather Monster: Dark brown chocolate, the color is completely opposite to vanilla cream, I'm so curious about the taste! //Forward】
Not only did old friends help forward it, even the leading actors of "Eternal Night Rose" took the initiative to participate in the forwarding and promotion without Yu Mian's prior notice.
[Vilst: There is not enough sunlight in Eternal Night for planting, but you can experience a different life in the game. //Forward】
[Director Guqi: Not only a game, Mr. Yutangmian, please consider whether you can make a documentary about your new book "God of Food"? //Forward】
Especially with the forwarding of the book by Director Guqi and Wilster, the popularity of "Taoyuan Restaurant" has skyrocketed. Many fans have noticed that Mr. Yutangmian's new book has a game.
[And it's a farming game? Is it just farming like in the book? Are there any fighting elements? 】
【I have only played mecha fighting games before, this is the first time I have seen it, it is a bit novel, but the price is so cheap, support it! 】
Moreover, as the first game work, the release price of "Taoyuan Restaurant" is also quite fair, only 50 star coins can be purchased. You should know that in many interstellar mecha games, buying a new mecha skin starts at 288 star coins.
Therefore, many game players who have not read the original "God of Gourmet", even if they were a little skeptical about this farming game, suddenly feel that buying it is nothing. Anyway,
50 star coins can't buy you a loss, and you can't be cheated.
【Ah, 50 star coins? ! Mr. Fish Soup Noodles, you won't lose money, right? 】
On the contrary, many book fans became very worried after seeing it, can this really make back the money?
Old fans who are familiar with the game know that the developer of the game, Mr. Fish Soup Noodle, personally invested in the game with his royalties.
Now that the price is so low, is Mr. Fish Soup Noodle preparing to make a comeback?
[Deerqin V: You won’t lose money, feel free to play.]
As the chief developer of "Taoyuan Restaurant", Deerqin also registered for the first time with Starbo for identity authentication. This confident statement also made fans curious.
Is this game really that fun, and it will definitely not lose money?
With the simultaneous online sale of "Taoyuan Restaurant" across the entire galaxy, countless players downloaded the game as soon as possible, and many game anchors downloaded it spontaneously even if they did not receive any marketing and promotion fees.
First, because the type is really unheard of. Even if it is not fun, these 50 star coins can still gain popularity by showing a bad game.
Second, some game anchors have played the incomplete version originally made by Deerqin before, and they are silently looking forward to this game. Maybe it will be very fun!
If this Deerqin is the mysterious boss before, maybe the copyright has not been sold to any big company this time, and the boss personally handles the copyright adaptation, which will be more fun?
As the game started, everyone was shocked by the holographic picture in front of them.
When I watched "The God of Food" before, I could also imagine the beauty of Taoyuan Mountain through Yu Mian's words, but the visual impact of the extreme in front of me was undoubtedly stronger.
The game's opening login screen is just a small swing under the largest peach tree in Taoyuan Hotel, swaying gently in the breeze.
Peach blossom petals are flying all over the mountain, and a thick layer of petals has fallen on the swing's wooden board, as if waiting for the owner to come back and brush off the petals.
The Lingquan farmland not far away is also in sight, and the lush vegetation makes people look forward to strolling in it, picking and making countless delicacies.
"The production of this picture scene is so surprising, it has improved so much compared to the previous incomplete version. The gameplay is so strong and the picture is so beautiful. Is this game really going to be a big hit?"
The game anchor Lajiao is a loyal reader of "God of Food" and a loyal Lajiao lover. He directly changed his ID to Lajiao.
I have been excited for a long time since I heard that the copyright of Fish Soup Noodle Teacher's new book game was officially launched. Naturally, I bought and downloaded it as soon as possible today and became one of the first players.
While explaining to the fans, Chili clicked on the "Game Start" light ball in front of him. The screen faded and entered the initial plot.
[You inherited a run-down restaurant...]
In addition to the first batch of players on the Central Star who have begun the official experience, Deerqin, who has not contacted his family for a long time, also sent the purchased game body and the original work of "The God of Food" to his family and old friends for the first time.
This is my most proud work so far, and I want to share it with my family no matter what.
[You kid actually knew to contact your family? You are completely missing in the universe. 】
Derqin's father Barov immediately replied to his son and looked at the link with curiosity.
"Taoyuan Restaurant?"
In fact, the star system where the descendants of the elves gather does have a very good natural ecology, and everyone likes to grow flowers and plants on weekdays.
But this is the first time I've heard of online farming.
What's the fun of it? Is it more fun than planting in the forest yourself? What
on earth is this kid Delqin doing going to the Federation Star?
Barov muttered as he opened the first link.
And not only Barov, many of Delqin's former friends also clicked on it one after another, some opened the game, and some opened the novel first.
Undoubtedly, they all developed a strong interest and curiosity in this cyber farming food element.
[Yu: Have you sent it to your family?]
During the communication with Delqin during this period, Yu Mian also vaguely learned that this mysterious god was actually a rebellious young man.
Despite the opposition of the whole family, he resolutely came to the Federation Star to make a name for himself.
Yu Mian was a little curious. What kind of family was this in Deerqin? Why did they still like farming in the interstellar age, and even every household had private fields?
[Deerqin: Yes, I have sent it.]
At this moment, Deerqin did not realize what the consequences would be if the descendants of the elves in his hometown were exposed to Mr. Fish Noodle’s books and derivative games and became addicted to cyber farming.
The effect would obviously not be inferior to the young people on Earth who suddenly bought a smart phone for their grandparents who were farming in their hometown one day - and then directly abandoned ten acres of land!
