Chapter 210 A serious joint signature
Lin Zhi wanted to be more serious in her tone.
"So, Mr. Lu, I suggest this brand..."
"I think... we can collaborate."
"ah?"
Lin Zhi's mind paused.
“Contact…contact who?”
Old Zhou beside him was also stunned for a moment and frowned.
"Mr. Lu, are you talking about... the joint lemon candy project?"
"yes."
Lu Ming nodded as a matter of course.
"but……"
He paused, his eyes gleaming slightly:
"It's not related to 'Misguided Path to the Wilderness'."
“???”
The two were even more confused.
Lin Zhi's brows were knitted together. "Who's the connection then? 'Who Owes Whom'?"
“Not really.”
Lu Ming blinked.
Lin Zhi was puzzled.
People come here just because "Mistakenly Path to the Wilderness" is so popular, and you and other people can't agree.
The Lemon Candy Project is not just a small milk tea shop at the entrance of a residential complex. It is a national chain and has some strength, okay?
How can you say what it is?
Lu Ming lowered his head and picked up the black notebook on the desk.
I flipped through two pages and came across a title circled three times in red pen. The corner of my mouth curled up:
"Just making milk tea is meaningless... If we want to connect, then..."
"Link... Whale Leap's new game."
Lao Zhou's pupils trembled instantly, and his tone was a little excited:
"...New game???"
"Where is the new game? Mr. Lu, are we going to make a new game?"
Lao Zhou was a little incoherent.
"Mr. Lu, this is too fast, isn't it? 'Mistaken Path to the Wilderness' was only online not long ago! Are we releasing new content so quickly?"
"Why...why are you already preparing the next one?"
Lin Zhi also showed a rare expression of shock:
"Wait... a new game? What kind?"
Lu Ming coughed lightly, his tone quite serious:
"Horror game."
“…”
"Horror...horror?"
The office fell into a strange silence for a moment.
Even Old Zhou, who was eloquent just now, opened his mouth into an "O" shape.
No wonder!
No wonder Mr. Lu has been creating a terrifying atmosphere recently!
Is emotion finding inspiration here?
But how did you find the horror game?
This thing can't withstand touch!
Lin Zhi's expression suddenly became complicated.
"Mr. Lu, are you talking about... those horror games with lights out, scary people, closed rooms, chase scenes, and the smell of broken glass?"
"It's a horror game, but I haven't figured out the specific gameplay yet!"
"My current idea is to directly integrate Project Lemon Candy's brand advertising into this new game. What do you think?"
After listening to Lu Ming, Lao Zhou no longer tried to understand Mr. Lu's train of thought.
Isn’t milk tea always sweet?
What does this have to do with horror games? Horror games should be collaborating with dark cuisine!
The only thing Lao Zhou can do now is to keep his mouth straight and maintain a professional image.
Lin Zhi also began to re-examine her business acumen.
How on earth did Mr. Lu manage to set up a project while watching a horror movie?
What’s even more outrageous is that it’s a collaboration with a milk tea brand.
How did Mr. Lu come up with this combination?
Isn’t this everyone’s first cup of milk tea in autumn?
Now it becomes the first horror game of autumn?
Is this correct?
Moreover, in her heart, Lin Zhi had a very outrageous illusion.
If this news is told to the Lemon Sugar Project, they will most likely consider it!
After all, it's just an ordinary milk tea joint venture.
What could be better than a custom horror game created just for you by one of the hottest gaming companies out there?
This suggestion is hard to refuse!
"Mr. Lu, is this appropriate?"
"How is this inappropriate?"
"Think about it, if a milk tea brand has rave reviews, orderly queues, and first-rate service, what's the point of linking up with it?"
"What's the point of this linkage? Is it for its stability? Is it for its sunshine?"
"I've thought about it. If we're going to connect, we'll connect this way."
"They came to us on their own initiative this time. We were lucky!"
“This is an opportunity!”
Lu Ming turned over the page of joint information, closed the notebook with a snap, and felt refreshed.
"We at Jingyue can't always stay in our comfort zone. If we want to be competitive, we have to be competitive in areas that others don't want to be competitive in."
"Other people are safe when creating crossover graphics, but what I want is... for players to feel a thrill when they see it."
In the office, silence lasted for more than ten seconds.
Lin Zhi held the document and moved the corners of her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but she didn't open her mouth in the end.
Lao Zhou was caught in a dilemma of "Should I persuade him, but I don't dare?"
A horror game.
How many companies in the industry have died on this road!
Didn’t Mr. Lu participate in the exchange before and see it?
There are so many manufacturers, but only a few make horror games!
Mr. Lu doesn’t think he has discovered a new blue ocean, does he?
Moreover, this horror game,
It is difficult to create an atmosphere, control the rhythm, and review is troublesome. What's worse is that players love to watch live broadcasts of horror games, but they may not really like to play them.
If done well, it’s anchor material.
If you mess up, you will get a lot of bad reviews.
Lao Zhou wanted to remind everyone that "this direction is not easy to go", but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
Because he just found that Mr. Lu was not in a good state.
His eyes lit up, as if he had discovered some incredible treasure.
Mr. Lu's recent hunger is written all over his face.
As expected, Lu Ming tapped the table with his fingers, speaking slowly and calmly:
"Lin Zhi, please take care of this matter."
"Meet with the Lemon Candy Project people and tell them that Whale Leap is indeed planning a collaboration, but it's not for 'Misguided Path'."
"We're working on a brand new horror game here."
"The direction of this game has been tentatively decided. My idea is to go with a traditional oriental style."
"Aren't they going for some new Chinese tea beverage? This will definitely give their brand ample exposure!"
Lin Zhi: “…”
Lao Zhou: “???”
The air paused.
Before Lin Zhi could come back to her senses, she subconsciously asked:
"Then... Mr. Lu, should I contact the Lemon Candy Project now?"
"right."
"I'm not secretly making a spoof, this is a collaboration, a serious collaboration!"
"This is a serious business collaboration!"
"We will make it clear that this is a horror game. If they feel it's inappropriate, we won't force them."
Lin Zhi was speechless.
She suddenly realized that her understanding of Mr. Lu was still too superficial.
Lin Zhi nodded vigorously, "I will definitely...repeat it in full."
After saying that, she ran away. When she left, Lao Zhou was the only one left in the room.
Old Zhou looked at Mr. Lu’s thick notebook and suddenly felt like slapping himself.
Why didn’t I come to persuade Mr. Lu earlier?
"Mr. Lu..."
Old Zhou hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.
"You said this horror game...it does have a bit..."
"Something"
Lu Ming looked up.
Lao Zhou gritted his teeth: "It's a bit difficult!"
"This type of game has limited gameplay, the scene logic is difficult to complete, the sound effects and rhythm control requirements are high, and players are picky!"
"If we mess up, we'll either be accused of cheating people out of their money or we'll be accused of being cultured and taking advantage of others!"
"The key is that we don't have a professional team for this..."
"Why is it gone?"
Lu Ming's expression remained unchanged, but his tone was a little mysterious:
"Don't worry about this game, I already have someone in charge!"
"I plan to let Liang Cong do it."
Old Zhou was stunned: "Liang...Liang Cong!"
"You're talking about my student!"
"That Liang Cong!"
Lu Ming nodded: "That's right."
"He's got something."
"He has his own ideas and does things in an unconventional way."
"He was the one who created 'Who Owes Whom', I believe him!"
"That game wasn't particularly successful, but I remember that feeling of something being off."
"Don't horror games have to be a little morbid?"
"I think his graduate student brain is full of ideas!"
Old Zhou: “…”
Old Zhou opened his mouth and finally sighed.
“…Alright.”
He has already accepted his fate, and there is no point in confronting Mr. Lu head-on.
Anyway, I don't think Lemon Candy will agree.
Who would want their milk tea to be associated with horror themes?
…
