Chapter 133: Plans cannot catch up with changes
. In the next few days,
the popularity of the "Breakout" challenge continued to rise.
Every day, a large number of teams signed up to participate.
While Lin Yao was determining the schedule and thinking about whether to make a special CG short film for the final, she also held several meetings with the core figures of the studio to discuss whether there were any omissions.
Now that the heat has risen,
she has also perked up, fearing that there will be trouble in the competition.
This kind of competition, if there is any trouble in the middle, it will be fatal.
The public opinion that is now favorable to Linmu Studio will also become a monster that devours Linmu Studio.
Lin Yao has to be on guard.
The entire Linmu Studio has started to run frantically because of the "Breakout" challenge.
As for the overseas situation, it is also very good.
After the small-scale test received very good feedback.
"Breakout" was assisted by Reflecta and officially launched an open beta overseas. The final result was still beyond Lin Yao's expectations. After the public beta, even the average online time did not drop much.
The popularity of "Breakout" can be seen.
And just when Lin Yao was busy with the competition and the two games under its umbrella.
Reflecta Zhang Jianghu also called.
Lin Yao picked up the phone, but before she could speak.
Zhang Jianghu laughed heartily on the other end of the phone and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Lin. Breakout has been very popular overseas, and the competition your studio is about to hold is even more popular."
Lin Yao replied very politely, "Congratulations, Reflecta graphics cards have also sold a lot, right?"
"That's also thanks to you."
Zhang Jianghu smiled, and after a few pleasantries, he changed the subject and talked about business: "Mr. Lin, I have a proposal, what do you think?"
"What proposal?"
"We want to... sponsor your studio's competition and provide technical support throughout the process."
Zhang Jianghu said in a rich tone: "We Reflecta are willing to pay half of your studio's challenge prize money this time, no matter how much it is in the end, we are willing to pay half."
Lin Yao smiled when she heard this, but did not rush to agree, but asked back: "...then are there any conditions?"
Zhang Jianghu said politely: "It's not a condition, it just wants to take our cooperative relationship to a step further. We want to become the only partner of the event and have the Reflecta graphics card logo appear on the competition map. This should not be a difficult task for your studio, right?"
"I can promise you this."
Lin Yao thought for a moment and replied, "But, in addition to Reflecta, we will also display the graphics card brand under Linmu Financial Holdings at the event..."
Lin Yao told the other party that the event would also promote the graphics cards under Linmu Financial Holdings.
"...Okay."
After listening to Lin Yao's words, Zhang Jianghu agreed without hesitation.
The graphics cards under Linmu Financial Holdings all use Reflecta chips, which is actually a good thing for them.
"Then I am very grateful that Reflecta is willing to support the event of our small studio."
Lin Yao was also quite satisfied when he heard him say that.
This is a win-win situation.
For Linmu Studio, the prize pool will increase and it can also get technical support.
And for Reflecta, the event is a very good promotion channel.
But she just had this idea.
Zhang Jianghu spoke again: "Mr. Lin, actually I have another request..."
"Hmm?"
"Some overseas players want to participate in the event. I don't know if you..."
"Overseas, how many?"
"A few thousand people." "
A few thousand people!?"
Lin Yao was shocked for a moment, and her voice became much higher.
Wait.
Not that bad.
Traveling across the ocean to participate in the competition of the newly released game...
"These are all FPS enthusiasts. They heard that we are holding a competition here and are very interested. Of course, this is just the number of people who said they are willing to come to participate in the competition when we launched the survey. There are not so many players who will actually come to China to participate. The main force is still a few old clubs."
"This..."
Lin Yao was shocked and then hesitated.
No way.
If a large number of overseas players really come, what should we do.
Even if it is an online competition, you have to give these people accounts, right?
Let them find translators themselves? Or add the overseas localized version to the domestic server?
But registering an account is only the first step.
There are still a lot of troubles behind it.
"I know this will cause trouble to your studio, but we at Reflecta will do our best to provide all support and help you."
Zhang Jianghu heard Lin Yao's hesitation and immediately said, "We will be responsible for arranging the players. You just need to pay attention to the event. But I hope that after overseas players participate, your studio will not stick to online competitions. You can hold offline competitions in the top 16 or top 8. We can also provide support in this regard, whether it is venue or technology, or government issues... In fact, the city also hopes to hold such an event. Mr. Lin, you can give it a try."
Lin Yao: "..."
"Lin Yao."
At this time,
Mu Wanqing trotted over, looking very anxious.
She didn't even care that Lin Yao was on the phone, and leaned over to her ear and whispered, "The city's publicity department called to ask if we want to hold an offline competition..."
"..."
Lin Yao looked at Mu Wanqing and fell silent again.
No way.
It's really going to happen.
A small studio of her own.
An offline e-sports event in the first year...
"Boss Lin?"
At this time.
Zhang Jianghu noticed that Lin Yao didn't speak, and took the initiative to call her.
"...Is this what Reflecta expects?"
Lin Yao came back to her senses and asked, "Such a big move, just for a few clubs, isn't it worth it?"
"It's worth it."
Zhang Jianghu replied softly, "In fact, Boss Lin, "Breakout" is not only more popular in China than we expected, but also more popular overseas. Overseas, AIB has a good relationship with major game manufacturers. To be honest, we want to seize the overseas game graphics card market. You are very important, and "Breakout" is very important."
"...Let me think about it."
Lin Yao frowned slightly, thought for a while, and did not agree immediately.
"Okay, but I hope you can reply to me as soon as possible, because the competition is about to start, and it will take some time to prepare for the offline competition."
"I understand."
Lin Yao nodded, and then the two chatted for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
After hanging up the phone.
Lin Yao put down the phone and lowered her head to think.
"Miss Mu, what do you think?"
Lin Yao suddenly looked up at Mu Wanqing and asked.
Mu Wanqing thought about it and replied: "Actually, offline competitions are possible, but time is a bit tight, and there is too little time to prepare, so it will be very rushed."
"Yes."
Lin Yao nodded.
Plans can't keep up with changes...
