"Boss, I think the market for shooting games is huge. China has never had a shooting game of its own. We are basically agents for Japanese companies. According to my investigation, due to translation and copyright fees, shooting games are actually severely deducted by Japanese companies. The majority of the commission is earned by Japanese companies, just like cutting leeks..."
After Liu Da heard Lu Yuan's brief silence on the other end of the phone, he immediately began to talk incessantly about his understanding of battle games. After that, he told Lu Yuan a series of market research data and information.
In fact, there are quite a few gun battle games in the world's online games, but there is actually only one shooting game that is truly popular all over the world. Apart from the stand-alone version of "Gun King" from the past two years, only "Final Destiny" from the R Japanese "Koei" company is the pinnacle of shooting games in the world.
The game "Final Destiny" is very popular in China. Basically, in Internet cafes of all sizes, more than 40% of players who don't play "World of Warcraft" are playing this game...
This is a very scary statistic.
This indirectly shows how popular this "Final Destiny" is among players.
Lu Yuan had heard of "Final Destiny". In fact, Lu Yuan had also wanted to make a CS or a gunfight game like "Crossfire". However, he saw that the basic elements of "Final Destiny" were similar to those of "Crossfire". At the same time, the content was also very good and the playing experience was very good. Most importantly, after seeing that "Final Destiny" occupied most of the gunfight game market, Lu Yuan gave up...
After all, even if I really made it, and with preconceived notions, "Cross Fire" may not necessarily be able to surpass "Final Destiny".
"Boss, other than that, I think..." Liu continued to talk about his ideas.
"Big Liu..."
"Um?"
"What genre is your new game?"
"Oh, boss, I sent it to your email, would you like to take a look?"
"good."
After hanging up the phone with Liu, Lu Yuan carefully opened his email and looked at the new game development materials sent by Liu.
Liu named this new game "Twin King", and 70% of the content is similar to "Final Destiny", and the remaining 30% is basically a level-breaking plot...
Although the plot design is quite novel, in Lu Yuan's opinion, "The King of Guns" has no overwhelming advantage over "Final Destiny".
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan picked up the phone.
"Big Liu..."
"exist."
"Your game is pretty good, but if you can improve on some of the details, he could be even better."
"Details, boss, you mean..."
"For example, what if we change the idea a little bit and turn the shooting game into a survival game based on the original game?"
"Survival?" Liu was stunned. "Shooting games are survival games. This..."
"No, that's not what I meant. I meant..."
“…”
“…”
In the "remote" game.
Liu listened quietly to Lu Yuan talking about a series of precautions regarding the new game.
Liu was so excited that he felt as if a new world had opened up to him. He just kept nodding and quickly writing down the details of what Lu Yuan said...
About half an hour later, Liu felt quite fuzzy while looking at the densely packed notes.
"Liu, how about this, let's call this game "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds"..."
"Oh, okay, good! Let's call it "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds"!" After hearing the sound of Lu Yuan drinking water on the other end of the phone, Da Liu just kept nodding excitedly.
Apart from that, he found himself completely unable to get a word in.
After hanging up the phone, Liu took another look at his planning materials for the shooting game.
This is not just a slight improvement in details, this is simply...
Can you change the way the game is played?
Um……
If this game is really completed, then...
It seems like there is really a chance to grab a share of the shooting game market from "Final Destiny"!
Um……
Looks like I'll be busy next.
Liu glanced at the densely packed settings of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in the notebook, and at the same time flipped through the League of Legends game project that was about to start development...
Somehow Liu suddenly felt extremely happy.
He suddenly thought of the future.
future!
The future "Remote" is the largest game company in China!
wrong!
Not China!
But it is the world's number one gaming company!
You mean hair?
He had lost all his hair a long time ago, so what's the point of having any more hair?
What bicycle do you want?
…
October 2nd afternoon.
"Remote" Games officially launched the game development projects of "League of Legends" and "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds".
"I hope you remember that from now until six months later..."
“Half a year later, Final Destiny is definitely not the world’s number one shooting game!”
“Half a year later, League of Legends will definitely be the world’s number one fighting game!”
"In half a year, all of you here will be the creators of legends!"
"come on!"
Before the game project started, Liu Cixin stood in the main seat and said this series of words very seriously.
He spoke passionately and with great enthusiasm.
It sounds like brainwashing, but it works very well!
At least the employees were excited!
Some programmers within the company seemed to be energized, and under Liu's leadership, they all threw themselves into the development of the game with great enthusiasm, even to the point of coming up with the slogan of "the world's number one game company."
No one knows how far "remote" games will go in the future, and no one knows how crazy "remote" games will become in the future.
but……
At least every programmer in the company has a burning heart.
Basically, these programmers who are able to enter the "remote" internal main game development office are a group of people with dreams.
Actually…
That's enough.
at the same time!
Everyone is looking forward to this day six months later...
…
No one in the gaming industry knows what will happen six months from now.
but……
An unprecedented earthquake has occurred in China's animation circle!
All anime fans in China feel that they have seen hope and excitement!
Yes!
Japanese anime used to be rampant in China, and the top five on the list were basically various Japanese anime.
Boys' hot-blooded anime, harem anime, girls' anime...
Basically, they are mainly R comics.
Chinese animation is basically trembling under the ravages of these Japanese animations and has no sense of existence at all.
All anime fans who are obsessed with watching R-style anime forget to eat and sleep have a more or less sense of anger and sadness in their hearts.
In fact, Chinese animation started earlier than other countries. The domestic animation "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" was once well-known to people all over the world.
But, what happened next?
Sorry, there really is no later.
Japan seized the window period and began to dominate this animation market, directly becoming the world's number one animation country outside of small movies.
Then, Chinese animation was suppressed and could not breathe. Basically, Chinese animation could only be circulated in the children's market, such as ducklings, eagles, chickens, rabbits, and dogs...
Adults rarely watch these animations because they think they are childish.
Anime fans don’t really have any recourse other than to sigh, just like the previous Hollywood blockbusters that wreaked havoc on China.
Of course it’s not that people don’t work hard.
In fact, many people are trying to change this situation, but some things are really preconceived and cannot be changed. There is still a gap between Chinese comics and R comics.
This is so sad!
When everyone thought this situation would last for a very long time, Lu Yuan appeared!
Brought "Naruto" and "Bleach"!
Then, these two anime counterattacked into the Japanese market with a crazy attitude, suppressing all Japanese anime of the same period, and even surpassed the first day listing data of "I Am a Hero", which was once known as the number one in the history of Japanese comics!
When all the data from the rankings in R appeared on the Chinese Internet, everyone in the comics industry was shocked!
“Impossible!”
"I don't believe it!"
"I am dreaming, no, this is not a dream!"
"Is this fake news? Why do I feel like this is fake news?"
"No, this is not fake news, this is... true!"
“…”
“…”
They didn’t believe it at first, but when they confirmed that everything was true and the data on the rankings were all real, they were so excited!
After the data was transmitted, "Naruto" and "Bleach" had already been on the shelves in China for more than half a day.
After most of the day, these two anime continued to dominate the rankings in China, far surpassing "Son of the Dragon God" in popularity!
The same beating!
Anime fans repeatedly look at the Chinese and Japanese rankings!
I'm so excited!
November 1st!
November 2nd!
Two days!
They looked at the time!
"I think these two days can be Chinese Animation Day!"
I don't know who first said this, nor who proposed it.
Anyway…
On the afternoon of November 2nd, this sentence instantly spread throughout the entire Chinese animation circle.
This sentence is circulating on major anime official websites and Weibo accounts, and some people are even applying for this festival.
Under this huge upsurge.
"Year Hare Affair" has appeared on major video websites in China.
"Huh? Is this a children's anime?"
"This animated cover looks like a plaything..."
"Yeah... Is this a 'remote' independently produced animation?"
"It should be a children's animation. However, since it is produced by 'remotely', let's take a look. Besides, the relevant department's Weibo also released this animation... This should be the first animation recommended by the relevant department, right?"
"Well, let's take a look. It's starting. Well, the picture is so simple... It looks so boring..."
"Hmm? Wait, this..."
"this……"
