Chapter 031 What do you think of the resistance soldiers?
Everyone looked at each other. They really didn't have a good way to refute Chen She's statement.
Because apart from Chen She, there is really no one who can come up with a more practical and effective way to deal with the copycat behavior of Changye Entertainment Group and other Super Dream Productions.
At first everyone was furious at Changye Entertainment Group's behavior and wanted to smash the Changye Entertainment Group's experience store immediately, but after thinking about it carefully, what Chen She said did make sense.
Even if Changye Entertainment Group did not copy, other Mewtwo production companies would copy.
Because the Mewtwo game "Strolling in the Garden" does not have a very deep moat .
The so-called moat is something that only you can do and no one else can do.
It can be a unique technique or a unique style that cannot be imitated.
The technical level of "Strolling in the Garden" itself is not high, and the gameplay is just a series of adjustments and modifications made on the basis of the classic Mewtwo "Castle Escape", so it is inevitable that it will be copied.
The solution proposed by Chen She is to work hard to create a super dream that no one else can copy!
From what it looks like so far, "Ember of the Dead" is indeed this kind of Mewtwo.
Even if other Mewtwo companies make Mewtwo that is similar to "Embers Are Going Out", it doesn't matter, because "Embers Are Going Out"'s high originality, the sense of amazement it brings when playing it for the first time, as well as its story background and a series of settings, are all pioneers in creating a genre.
As long as it becomes a big hit, subsequent imitators can only imitate others and will not pose much threat to it!
Of course, the premise of all this is that "The Embers Are Going Out" must be as popular as "A Walk in the Garden".
This premise seems a bit untenable...
But considering that Chen She has already proven his game design talent and foresight on the two Mewtwo games, "Battle of Desperate Situation" and "A Stroll in the Garden", the people at the scene did not have much good reason to refute.
Because facts speak louder than words.
After a brief exchange of opinions, the responsible persons approved the decision.
Chen She continued to explain the next two requirements.
"Repair the mechanical prostheses and weapons and equipment for the brothers, and comprehensively improve their equipment level. This is what I think."
"Third brother, what you said is indeed correct. If we look at it from a short-term perspective, using this money to buy some heavy equipment will indeed increase the overall combat power to a greater extent."
"But there is a question here: what do we think of brothers as?"
"Are they cannon fodder charging at the front of the battlefield and ready to be sacrificed at any time? Or are they truly equal partners who fight side by side with us and whose lives are precious to us?"
"If it's the former, then it's fine for them as long as their equipment is usable. Their lives are just consumables anyway. But if it's the latter, I think they should grow with us as a whole!"
"Our Lishan Technology Group can grow rapidly and earn high profits because our brothers have been working hard. Therefore, they should share the fruits of this development with us."
"This time we use the excuse of buying heavy equipment to not spend the money on them, but next time and the next time we can still find other reasons. After all, there are too many places in the world where you need to spend money, and there will never be an end to it!"
"So I think this is a very short-sighted behavior. Even if the strength of our resistance army is improved in the short term, so what? We can't gain the power to overthrow all the big corporations at once. On the contrary, this behavior will make us alienated over time, which is not worth it in the long run."
"As for the experience store, my opinion is that it cannot be simply seen as an experience store, but should be seen as a bridge for us to communicate with big cities and ordinary people."
"This is not only related to my personal safety, but more importantly, if we lose this experience store, not only will our pillar Mewtwo industry be seriously affected, but it will also sever our connection with ordinary people."
"What's more, the symbol of the Spacetime Knights appeared nearby, which means that there may still be some unexpected dangers in this area."
"We must plan ahead and prepare for the worst-case scenario. We must not rely on luck and calculate our security forces based solely on the dangers that we can see at the moment."
"I think these three points are far more important than purchasing advanced weapons and equipment!"
"In the final analysis, it is because we are in a dormant period and on the defensive compared to the big consortiums. Powerful equipment is only used in large-scale offensives. We must first figure out our position at this time. Spend money where it counts, and don't always think about problems with the past."
Chen She's words were powerful and convincing.
Everyone, including Zhao Zhen and Zhang Sirui, lowered their heads slightly and began to think seriously.
Chen She’s statement is actually very clear.
Compared to those big financial groups, the rebels are currently on the defensive and in a dormant state. There is actually not much meaning in purchasing so many advanced weapons and equipment at this time, because there will be no large-scale battles to fight in the short term.
For them, there are two most urgent things at the moment.
The first is to continue to expand Chaomeng's revenue and use the money on hand as leverage to leverage more money as much as possible.
The second is to boost the morale and cohesion within the rebels, so that all soldiers can see the hope and dawn of victory and feel that the situation is moving in a good direction.
Therefore, Chen She requested to continue to invest heavily in the research and development of the super dream "Embers Are Going Out", and to invest a sum of money in the expansion of the experience store and the improvement of security measures, all in order to make more money.
Repairing prosthetic limbs for the rebels and allowing them to share the fruits of Lishan Technology Group's development is to further enhance internal morale and cohesion.
Chen She's question left Zhang Sirui speechless.
Do you treat the rebels as sacrificial animals, as cannon fodder that can be used at any time? Or do you truly value the lives of every rebel and let everyone grow and improve together?
If it is the former, then what is the difference between the so-called rebels and the big capitalists?
This is equivalent to touching upon the fundamental meaning of the existence of the rebels, and no one dares to agree with the first statement.
After this verbal attack, the thoughts of all the responsible persons present were changed.
They also gradually felt that the three points currently proposed by Chen She were indeed more in line with the current development direction of the resistance army .
The only question is: Can you get the expected return after investing so much money into the experience store and the super dream game "Embers Are Out"?
So, back to the original question.
The responsible persons looked at each other and finally reached a consensus.
Since the captain has such high expectations for the Mewtwo game "Embers of Desolation", we can only agree to let him go all in with the money he earned from "A Stroll in the Garden".
Zhao Zhen finally nodded: "Okay, since everyone agrees with the captain's strategy, let's execute it!"
…
…
Wednesday, March 12th.
Zhou Lei, the manager of Lishan Technology's Super Dream Experience Store, returned to the Chen Group headquarters.
Normally, as the store manager, he shouldn't leave the Super Dream Experience Store, but this time he was called back by Zhang Sirui, as if he had something special to tell him.
At present, the business at the experience store is still booming, but it can be clearly felt that the popularity is gradually declining.
On the one hand, the popularity of "Strolling in the Garden" has gradually stabilized after a surge, and even declined.
On the other hand, many Mewtwo research and development companies, including Changye Entertainment Group, have quickly launched similar Mewtwo, and even some small workshops of Black Mewtwo are keeping up with the situation.
These people's development speed is much faster than Lishan Technology Group!
At first, Lishan Technology Group developed two Super Dreams at the same time, which took about three weeks to complete. However, Changye Entertainment Group, with its strong financial and human resources, rushed to develop and produced a copycat version in just three days.
Not to mention those underground black dream workshops, which violently modified the game content of "Wandering in the Garden" and then sold it directly.
With the rapid rollout of these products, the revenue of "Xian Ting Xing Bu" was also seriously affected.
For Mewtwo players in Dawn City, Lishan Technology's experience store is no longer the only option. They can go to Changye Entertainment Group's experience store to play "Runner", or simply buy Black Mewtwo themselves.
Zhou Lei knew about this situation, but he could do nothing about it.
But he also vaguely expected that Zhang Sirui had called him this time because he had a solution.
Maybe they would take direct military action and blow up several Long Night Entertainment Group experience stores in the inner city?
If that's the case, it's exciting to think about.
Zhou Lei took the elevator to the basement of the headquarters with other employees and found that many people there looked listless.
Zhou Lei was puzzled and asked, "Hasn't the working hours at the foundry been reduced? Why do you all look so listless? I thought you were full of energy and ready to fight at any time."
A resistance fighter shook his head helplessly: "Although the working hours have been reduced, the saved time is all used for training!"
"Training in "Embers Are Going Out" is really painful. And I really don't know what's the point of practicing cold weapon combat so hard?"
Zhou Lei said, "Didn't Third Brother say that? Real masters all use cold weapons. I've also been playing "Embers Are Going Out". Although I was not used to it at the beginning, it seems to have changed a bit now."
"I feel like my cold weapon combat skills have improved significantly."
The corner of the rebel soldier's mouth twitched slightly: "I'm afraid it's just your illusion."
The elevator went underground and everyone got out.
There were many transport trucks parked in the secret warehouse under the headquarters .
The carriage was open, and inside were all kinds of sophisticated equipment, including mechanical prostheses and firearms, as well as some other equipment that had never been seen before.
Chen She and Zhang Sirui were standing at the door of the warehouse, waiting for everyone to arrive.
These rebel soldiers were all stunned. They originally thought that there was some special activity this time, but it turned out to be an equipment update!
This kind of large-scale replacement of weapons and equipment is actually rare, because in the past, applications for replacement were only made after the equipment was damaged, and they would just use what they could.
Up to now, many rebel soldiers are like Zhou Lei. Their mechanical prosthetic limbs and firearms have some minor problems, but everyone has gotten used to it.
Zhang Sirui said: "Everyone line up to receive the new equipment, come one by one, everyone will get a share."
