Chapter 438: Every frequency has a way back
Thinking of this,
Lu Ming already had an idea.
"Homeward Journey Radio" must be released first before the virtual cabin news is released to the public.
Otherwise, after this wave,
Players' interests quickly shifted!
Whale fall, there is no problem in waiting until the end of the year to reveal it.
After all, press conferences and other things also need to be prepared in advance,
It will make its official debut during the New Year’s Day!
A direct tribute to the gaming community!
Thinking of this, Lu Ming directly told Lao Yao his idea.
Lao Yao also had no objection.
In his opinion, as long as the product is good, that is more important than anything else.
Then, Lu Ming turned and looked at Yao Wenqing:
"Are you free later?"
Yao Wenqing was stunned: "Later? Yes."
"That's good!"
"I have an idea for the Whale Leap game package integration idea you mentioned earlier!"
Yao Wenqing's eyes lit up instantly
"Then Mr. Lu, wait a moment, let's go to the office and talk!"
Soon, in the office,
The two sat down facing each other.
Lu Ming pushed the water cup away from the table, leaned forward, folded his hands, and lowered his voice:
"That's what I think!"
“…”
Lu Ming exhaled slowly and began to explain.
He didn't bring any materials or show any PPT; all the content seemed to flow directly from his mind.
This is a completely new model.
A framework that connects all Whalefall games.
It can not only maintain the independence of each project, but also penetrate and echo each other at key nodes.
It’s not a simple cross-border collaboration.
Not a regular Easter egg tribute.
But it is true fusion.
As Yao Wenqing listened, the expression on his face changed from curiosity to confusion to shock.
He wanted to interrupt again and again, but found that every time the question came up,
Lu Ming had already given the answer in the next sentence.
The two of them sat in the office for three full hours, discussing, deducing, and adding details.
Communicate and deduce at the same time.
The tea got cold and we changed it, and we kept chatting from the afternoon to the evening.
White papers covered with graffiti were scattered on the desk, each with complicated arrows and keywords written on it.
Yao Wenqing went from being hesitant at first to gradually becoming fully committed.
At the end, there was even a gleam in his eyes.
"Boss Lu, is this... is this really possible?"
Yao Wenqing asked in a hoarse voice.
Lu Ming just smiled slightly: "Do you think it's appropriate?"
After two seconds of silence, Yao Wenqing nodded vigorously.
"suitable!"
“It’s perfect!”
“Once the virtual cabin goes online, using this model… it’s simply tailor-made for it!”
"Not only will it solve the problem players are currently complaining about, namely 'single gameplay', but it will also tie together all the accumulation we've made over the years."
“It’s perfect!”
Hearing Yao Wenqing's approval,
Lu Ming leaned back in his chair and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Passed!
Fortunately, it was not in vain!
This is indeed what I have been thinking deeply about for several days!
The effect of inspiration echoing is so nice!
"Then follow this direction and get ready."
"No problem, Mr. Lu!"
"I'm planning the second Whale Fall game based on this idea!"
The night is as dark as ink, and the city lights are twinkling outside the window.
But the two people in the office had eyes that seemed to be burning with fire.
But they both knew very well that
The next step of the whale leap has already taken place.
The chessboard has already been formed.
…
In the next few days,
Beishan has already worked out the publicity and promotion plan for "Return Home Radio" in accordance with Lu Ming's request.
"The trailer plays the emotional card first, then the gameplay highlights, and finally the specific mechanics."
"Don't start with a rigid 'new game launched' copy. No one will read it."
So, under Lu Ming's guidance,
The first wave of trailers for "Homeward Bound Radio" has been released on the official account.
Promotional video playing,
The picture starts with a dark radio background noise and a rustling sound.
Next, an empty highway.
The rain hit the windshield, hazy and rapid.
The narrator's voice murmured:
“Some roads are not meant to surpass others. Some speeds are not meant to compete for first place.”
Then, the screen kept switching.
Strong winds, heavy rain, collapsed mountain roads...
The rescue vehicle slipped in the mud but was firmly controlled.
The truck crossed the rickety wooden bridge, and the bridge collapsed instantly behind the truck.
Bulldozers cleared the way, and a blizzard was blowing in, but the lights in the distance were gradually illuminated.
The orange rescue off-road vehicle rushed into the landslide section in the heavy rain and strong wind, with the red signal light on the roof flashing in the mud.
Then the camera cuts to the cockpit, where the windshield wipers are flailing frantically and the timer on the dashboard is ticking away second by second.
The words slowly emerged.
"The moment you hold the steering wheel, you may be carrying the hope of a village. Or, it may be someone's journey home."
“…”
The final shot freezes on an ambulance breaking through the snow and wind, its headlights piercing the darkness.
Finally, the logos of Beishan and Jingyue emerged, revealing the name of "Homeward Journey Radio".
Slogans appeared in the center of the screen:
"There's no finish line. There's only a lifeline."
【New racing game "Homeward Bound Radio"】
【Whale Leap·Beishan Production】
The comment section exploded instantly.
"What is this? What kind of game is this? Is it a racing game?"
"??? Racing? Or rescue? Why does it look like it's on fire?"
"No, have you noticed? A lot of the details in the trailer look like gameplay hints: collapsed roads, broken bridges, mudslides, nighttime rescues... This isn't some kind of map-hopping rescue game, is it?"
"Finally, it's here! Whale Leap's racing game!"
"I was thinking Beishan had caught up at the right time. The publicity and development speed are clearly Jingyue's style! It seems Beishan has integrated well!"
"Beishan is getting better too!"
The post instantly became popular and received over 10,000 likes.
Then,
Beishan’s second wave of warm-up was almost seamless.
The first trailer has not yet completely swept the hot search,
The second short film has been released simultaneously on major platforms.
This time the scene is no longer a rainy mountain road, but a city overpass at night.
Countless taillights intertwine into glowing veins, rising and falling like a heartbeat.
At the end of the scene, a rescue vehicle rushes out of the tunnel, into the light, and freezes.
The music suddenly picked up speed, the sounds of gears, accelerator pedals, and heartbeats blended together, and subtitles flashed by line by line:
[Not drifting, not lap speed]
It’s a purposeful journey
[Behind every frequency, there is a journey home]
Are you ready?
["Homeward Journey Radio" September 20th · Deep Blue Platform officially launched]
【Unified price: 38 yuan】
The comments below exploded instantly:
"Fuck, this is too exciting!"
“So it’s a rescue-themed racing game???”
"Wow, the racing game has hit the main theme?"
"September 20th! Ten days left! I want to be that bulldozer driver, so cool!"
"It's cheaper than I thought! I thought it would be 298!"
"Damn it, this isn't a race, this is Speed!"
"That's what I want! No more fancy flame-breathing tails!"
"Fuck, this ad copy is killing me!"
"No, why is it so cheap? It shouldn't be like this!"
At the same time, many people also joked,
"If I lose a drag race in a Lamborghini, I can only say it's bad luck, but if I overturn an ambulance, that's a life at stake!"
"That's right! It instantly brings you into the world of a disaster movie!"
"That's what I mean. We're used to competing for championships in racing games, used to proving ourselves with speed. But this time, you're not just driving a car, you're driving a lifeline. I actually ignited it again..."
There are also professional players who post long analysis:
"In that case, the core of traditional racing is speed, and the core of Homecoming Radio is delivery.
It turns 'speed' into a responsibility, which is not only a design ingenuity, but also a precise attack of emotional guidance."
"From the beginning to the end, there was no mention of racing. It was all about the journey home and life. This kind of gameplay instantly filled my memory."
“…”
In this way, with the advancement of wave after wave of publicity, the popularity of "Homeward Journey Radio" quickly rose.
The related topics are all players' speculations and crazy forwardings.
Everyone is waiting,
Waiting for September 20th to come,
Waiting for the oath that "someone is waiting for you",
From trailer to real game experience.
