Chapter 243 Advertisement
The next day.
North America.
Morning.
A branch of the game retail giant GameStop located in the suburbs of Dallas, Texas.
The store manager opened the store door as usual.
He started his day's work.
But there were no customers in the store yet.
Business was as quiet as ever in the morning.
Store manager Heidi Gibbon was no longer surprised. She started to sort out the goods while chatting with the clerk.
But as the two chatted,
a customer came.
A man who looked quite heavy walked into the store.
Heidi Gibbon was a little surprised that someone would come to buy a game so early, but she temporarily put down her work and greeted him, "Hey, man, what do you need?"
"Um..."
The man who came in glanced around the store, then hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you have the game "Wrath of the Lich King"? Can I pre-order it?"
"...Wrath of the Lich King?"
Heidi Gibbon was slightly startled, then scratched his head and glanced at the clerk. He had never heard of this game.
The clerk also shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of this game either.
The man was a little disappointed and nodded, "Okay, it seems I've been cheated. I'd better check carefully what it is."
After that,
he left.
Heidi Gibbon didn't even have time to persuade him to stay and introduce other games.
But he didn't care. He saw strange people every day.
He turned around and continued to sort the goods.
But after a while, another person ran in.
He asked the same question as the man just now.
Is there Wrath of the Lich King?
After getting a negative answer,
the man also left.
Heidi Gibbon realized that something was wrong, but he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter.
Soon,
as time passed,
it was noon.
More and more people came in to ask about "Wrath of the Lich King".
More and more. More
and more.
At the evening rush hour,
someone came in every few minutes to ask.
"Damn it! Write me a note and post it on the door, telling them that there is no "Wrath of the Lich King" here, and don't ask!"
Heidi Gibbon was harassed for a day. Every time she thought it was a guest, she entertained him warmly.
The other party asked him whether there was "Wrath of the Lich King". When he got the answer that there was no, he turned around and left.
This pissed him off.
What kind of game is this?
He had never heard of it!
"Also, find out which company's game that damn "Wrath of the Lich King" is, and report it to the headquarters! Let them fight for the supply, and this game will definitely be very popular!"
"...Manager, actually I just checked it, it's a CG on a video website, and the source is the Vaporwave game platform." The clerk took the phone and reminded carefully.
"Vaporwave game platform!?"
Heidi Gibbon heard it, raised her head, and then snatched the clerk's phone and took a look.
Soon,
he figured out the reason.
This time, Linmu Studio released the CG simultaneously at home and abroad.
There are two dubbing versions respectively.
However, when it was released in China, it was still late at night in most overseas regions.
So it was not until the evening in China
that many overseas players saw this CG.
They were similar to domestic players, just thinking it was another "Breakout" CG.
Until they clicked it.
Play.
They just woke up from their dream.
They shouted "WTF! "
Because of her confidence, Lin Yao did not limit herself to the Vaporwave game platform overseas, but also created an account and released the CG on the largest video website in North America.
Then,
the CG became popular on the video website.
The tone of the CG "Wrath of the Lich King"
is very suitable for the tastes of European and American players.
When Heidi Gibbon saw the CG,
the video received more than three million likes on that day alone.
Many people under the video did not know what it was, and they all asked what Wrath of the Lich King was.
The people who just came to the store were actually those who saw the video on the video website.
They were not deep players. They
did not download the Vaporwave game platform.
Just because of a CG, they knew it was a game, so they ran over to pre-order.
"...WTF!"
Heidi Gibbon lowered her head to finish reading the CG that was less than three minutes long, then raised her head and cursed.
He immediately rushed to the other end of the phone, picked up the phone directly, and went to report to the headquarters himself. He
did not dare to delay for a moment.
After watching the CG, he knew very well how many users this "Wrath of the Lich King" would bring to the Vaporwave game platform.
And the Vaporwave game platform... is the biggest enemy of their retail stores!
Heidi Gibbon's experience.
Other game retail store clerks have also encountered it.
On this day.
Everyone was asking what Wrath of the Lich King is.
Then at the headquarters of the retail giant, the staff who received the report were also confused and asked what Wrath of the Lich King is.
This sentence has even gradually evolved into a stalk.
Because the Internet here is overwhelming, all asking what Wrath of the Lich King is...
Gibber Company, also in North America.
Internal.
Frank held the phone and fell into entanglement, and began to wonder whether he should apologize to Linmu Studio...
...
A CG, both overseas and domestic.
Even because of this CG, the number of users of the Vaporwave game platform has ushered in a wave of growth.
The effect is so great.
Even many members of Linmu Studio were surprised.
Faced with this situation, Lin Yao felt satisfied and struck while the iron was hot.
While confirming the launch date of the two games with the project leaders, she also did something else.
She used the resources of Linmu Financial Holdings to hang a long-awaited giant advertisement outside the building where the studio is located.
On the building.
Arthas, holding Frostmourne, looked at the intersection with solemn majesty.
At the bottom was the release date.
Mid-November.
Such a large advertisement instantly attracted countless eyes.
Originally, Lin Yao planned to promote it well this time, so why not do a big one.
So this time, it was really the most exaggerated publicity of Linmu Studio.
"How do you feel?"
Lin Yao stood in the sun, looked up at the advertisement on the building, and asked Mu Wanqing next to her.
"It's very eye-catching."
Mu Wanqing thought about it and gave an evaluation.
"Miss Mu, I'm asking if you're handsome?" Lin Yao patted her waist: "It's definitely eye-catching, otherwise why would I spend money on this, just to attract attention."
"He's handsome."
Mu Wanqing nodded, then glanced at the beautiful side face of the girl next to her that seemed to emit a faint glow in the sun, and continued: "But this is not the type I like."
"Of course, you're not middle school enough."
Lin Yao turned her head and smiled brightly at Mu Wanqing, then took her arm and said: "Let's go, go back, hang it up for half a month to see the effect, if it's good, we'll hang a few more, and then concentrate on making games."
"Yeah."
Mu Wanqing looked up at the advertisement upstairs again, nodded, and followed Lin Yao back to the building.
The two walked and talked.
"Lin Yao."
"Yeah?" "It
looks good." "
You mean the advertisement?"
"No." "
Me?"
"Yeah." "
Go away."
Behind the two.
A passerby happened to pass by the intersection and was instantly attracted by the huge advertisement hanging on the building.
He looked up at the building.
I couldn't help but sigh, "How handsome!" Then I noticed Lin Yao and Mu Wanqing playing in front of me.
I was stunned.
For a moment,
I didn't know where to look.
