Chapter 106 "Plants vs. Zombies" (Please vote for recommendation!)
Hoenn region, Kanazawa city.
A large city located in the western part of Hoenn, adjacent to Meteor Falls, it is an important commercial center of Hoenn.
The headquarters of the giant monopoly company, 'Deven Corporation', is located in Kanaz City.
Dewen Corporation started out in the energy industry.
But in addition to the energy industry, the gaming industry provided up to 25% of the financial report data.
As one of its well-known products, the gaming platform 'ORAS' also has a large market overseas.
Among them, the one ranked first in downloads is the real-time virtual "Pokémon: Battle".
On 'ORAS', hundreds of new games are released every month, but only a few of them become really popular.
In August, a tower defense game suddenly emerged and entered the top ten of the new game list.
Kanaz City, Trainer School.
"Did you play the game I recommended to you yesterday?"
"Damn it! My Sunflowers are always eaten by Rattata!"
"Haha, you need to put acorns in the front row, you idiot!"
The bell rang, and the teenagers were still chattering about the game.
"I brought a tablet, watch me play!" The boy's eyes lit up.
"Ah? But this is Teacher Du Juan's class..."
"It's okay, as long as she doesn't find out!"
Before he finished speaking, a slim teacher walked in from the front door of the classroom.
She had her hair tied into a bun and two ponytails tied with red satin.
Du Juan, who looked a little young, walked into the classroom wearing a wide skirt and pink stockings, holding a pile of books.
Putting the textbook on the podium, Du Juan coughed lightly and said, "Today's lesson is about the use and response of abnormal states..."
A roar suddenly rang out from the audience: "Hold it or not!"
"My teacher Lu thinks you are not capable!"
"I'm impressed. Why are there fans of Teacher Lu everywhere?"
There was laughter from the audience.
Du Juan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is this...something new? It seems that the teacher can't keep up with your topic again."
The monitor kindly reminded: "This is a UP host on Bilibili who specializes in teaching tactics and team building!"
"That's just an amateur..." Dujuan murmured.
"Teacher, these abnormal conditions have already been taught by Teacher Lu!"
"Teacher Lu explained the knowledge about 'poisoning' in more detail than what is in the book!"
Du Juan looked frustrated and whispered in frustration: "Anyway, everyone turn to page 36..."
Suddenly, Du Juan raised her eyebrows and walked quickly to the two students who were talking with their heads down.
Confiscating the tablet from them, Du Juan smiled smugly: "Come to my office after class!"
After being a teacher for so many years, I finally haven’t received anything!
The two students looked pale: "I finally defeated Dr. Squid King!"
"Teacher, please let me finish this level!"
"Playing games in class..." Du Juan muttered, "No, let's talk about it later!"
…
The bell rang, and Du Juan returned to the office. He looked at the confiscated tablet and asked curiously:
"What game is this?"
"Plants vs. Zombies!" the student replied, "I just downloaded it from ORAS today!"
"It's only 20 yuan!" Another boy's eyes lit up, "Teacher Du Juan, come and play with us!"
Du Juan smiled coldly: "I won't play such a boring tower defense game!"
Twenty minutes later...
"Teacher Dujuan, aren't you going to class yet? The class has already started for ten minutes." The faculty member reminded.
"Wait till I finish this level..."
Du Juan was suddenly stunned and stammered, "What? Class has already started?!"
"I, I, I'll go right away!"
Dujuan hurriedly closed the tablet but forgot to save it, and suddenly burst into tears.
"Can this be paused? Why are you so excited?!"
The same scene is happening all over Hoenn.
Due to the popularity of ORAS in the Hoenn region, "Plants vs. Zombies" has become a big hit overseas.
As a member of the chat group.
Mr. Tiexuan from Zijin City called Lu Ye early in the morning.
Tie Xuan laughed carelessly and said, "Lu Ye, can you please send me a copy of the strategy guide? A cheating device would be fine too!"
"How can you ask the author for a cheating device?"
"Hahaha, it's nothing, it's just that this is so funny, I came here specially to tell you about it!"
The speed at which "Plants vs. Zombies" became so popular really exceeded Lu Ye's expectations.
As a work launched on August 1st, it has the inconspicuous recommendation of "new game on the shelves".
In just three days, "Plants vs. Zombies" made it into the top ten of the new game list.
The work, priced at 20 yuan per copy, sold more than 5,000 copies in three days, with almost no publicity.
With a 95% favorable rating, it has received rave reviews and received long recommendations from nearly ten game reviewers.
This kind of popularity and praise rate is rare even for games from big companies.
“It’s hard to imagine that this game was made by a small studio. Both the gameplay and the level of completion deserve five stars!”
"I am a fan of Mr. Lu. I bought this game as soon as I saw the video. I thought it was a fan work of game enthusiasts, but I didn't expect it to be so addictive! Five-star praise!"
"I fought against Professor Squid King all night, and I have to challenge the gym tomorrow morning... I'm tired."
"Teacher Lu can also make games? And the games he made are so fun? I'm jealous, it's not worth recommending!"
"I asked my mom for 20 yuan to buy a textbook. My mom asked me what it was. I said that this textbook can not only remember the evolution of the elves, but also remember the characteristics, restraints, and moves... Yes, it is "Plants vs. Zombies"!"
Looking at the screen full of positive reviews and the constantly scrolling background data.
Brother Dayou was so excited that he grabbed Lu Ye’s hair and said, “Brother Lu, you are famous!”
"Stop pulling." Lu Ye was very calm.
With the support of systematic skills, Lu Ye has almost restored the essence of the original version, and even incorporated elements of the elf world.
Overall, Lu Ye still has a certain degree of confidence.
"You have contributed to this as well." Lu Ye said with a smile.
"I'm just a coder...Besides, we had a contract in advance. It's an employment relationship, not a partnership." Liang Dayou shook his head.
It would be a lie to say I'm not jealous.
But Dayou studied law and had an innate sense of justice, so he was not treated unfairly in terms of salary.
Without Lu Ye's creativity, Liang Dayou knew very well that he would never be able to create such a popular game.
"From now on, just add my name to the studio's staff list!" Liang Dayou smiled innocently.
"no problem!"
"By the way, what is the name of our studio?"
Lu Ye thought about it and decided that since it was a studio, he originally wanted to call it 'GameFreak'.
But I have to set up a company in the future...
When mentioning the Pokémon IP, one cannot help but think of the ruler of the world, Nintendo.
Unfortunately, without the foundation from the FC era, it is difficult for the sewer worker to leave a deep impression.
As the originator of SRPG, it is obviously not a wise choice for Fire Emblem to make a tactical game now.
MOBA games have just started to emerge in this world...
If we learn from the success of that game in the future...
"Let's just call it Pokémon Workshop."
Lu Ye said: "The subject matter is mainly related to elves, so that those who are restricted by conditions and cannot conquer elves can also feel the charm of elves!"
I accompanied my mom to the hospital today, so I only have one chapter... I'll make it up tomorrow. Alas, it's another day without any drafts saved, my hands are clumsy and I'm crying.
