Chapter 036: The Death Version and the Coward Version 2
After the adjustment, "The Embers Are Going Out" will have a relatively simple version and an extremely difficult version.
Chen She decided to update these two versions first, see the players' feedback, and then choose the least popular version and vigorously develop the physical version of Mewtwo.
Suddenly, a reminder sound came from Chen She’s bracelet.
"Um?"
Chen She became alert instantly.
He clicked on it and found that it was indeed Li Yunhan who posted a new review, and the victim of this review was "The Embers Are Going Out"!
Ever since he was tricked by Li Yunhan last time, Chen She has become more cautious. Not only did he add a special follow, he also set up a reminder tone. As long as Li Yunhan sends a new message, he will be notified the first time!
There was no other way. At present, Li Yunhan was the one who had betrayed him the most ruthlessly, so he must be kept a close eye on.
Sure enough, this precautionary arrangement paid off.
Chen She immediately clicked on Li Yunhan's new review as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
"I would like to recommend another forgotten classic to you all! It is a Mewtwo work released by the same company that developed "Walking in the Garden"!"
"This Mewtwo is called "Embers Are Going Out", and it's a relatively rare cold weapon combat action Mewtwo with an oriental background."
"The biggest feature of this Mewtwo is that it is very difficult. Some players even think that the producer of this Mewtwo is purely for revenge against society."
“But after playing around for a bit, I discovered that things aren’t as simple as many people think.”
“Although this Mewtwo is just a trial version, and currently only has about 1/4 of the game content. But after experiencing it, I feel that this difficulty setting is the core charm of this Mewtwo.”
"The current difficulty is obviously the balance point found by the designers after careful consideration. On the one hand, although it is difficult, it is not completely impossible to pass. As long as ordinary people can resist the negative emotions in their hearts, adapt to the body in Mewtwo, and persevere in honing their fighting skills, they can always defeat powerful enemies."
"On the other hand, it is different from the common mowing Mewtwo. It is precisely because of its certain difficulty that players can focus more on the challenge and constantly improve their skills!"
"Some players even said that after training in this Mewtwo, it can even have a significant impact on their real selves. The improvement effect is more obvious than other Mewtwo. It is an excellent way to strengthen the body and train self-defense capabilities..."
Chen She was so angry that his mouth twitched before he even read the whole article.
This Li Yunhan is really interesting. Not only did he ruin "A Stroll in the Garden", he even didn't let go of such a unpopular Mewtwo as "Embers Are Going Out"!
Are you still human?
The key point is that Chen She took a look at his review and found that he was not serious at all. He just copied some players' comments from the Internet!
Needless to say, it must have been Zhang Sirui and Zhao Zhen who found him again. Li Yunhan posted this review out of consideration for the resistance army.
The stab in the back was so careless, if not you, who would be slapped in the face?
Chen She felt that he had to do something and couldn't let Li Yunhan keep chasing him around.
Otherwise, every time he releases a Mewtwo, Zhao Zhen and Zhang Sirui will look for Li Yunhan, and then Li Yunhan will brag about it again. Isn't this a vicious circle?
Chen She must find a way to crush Li Yunhan's authority so that whenever he praises Lishan Technology's new Mewtwo again, his fans will spit at him!
Thinking of this, Chen She immediately made a call to Lin Luxi.
"Have you finished the changes I asked you to make?"
Lin Luxi said with the look of a model student: "Mr. Chen, are you referring to the difficulty change? It has been completed. We made a normal version with normal difficulty and a more difficult version. But it has not been updated yet."
“The full version of The Last Embers will be out by the end of the month.”
Chen She nodded: "Update now!"
"Change the current normal version into a high-difficulty version, called the Death Version."
"Then we'll name the lower-difficulty version the Coward Edition and sell it separately at the same price as the original version."
"If you want the coward version, you have to buy it all over again!"
Lin Luxi was stunned for a moment: "Ah? Mr. Chen, this is a bit too depressing... Oh no, I mean, this is not good, right?"
Chen She laughed: "Nothing wrong, update immediately!"
I want to see how Li Yunhan reacts after being slapped in the face at the speed of light!
…
At the same time, Li Yunhan had just finished breakfast.
The headquarters of Long Night Entertainment Group is in the Central Federal District, which has a time difference of several hours with the Northern Federal District where Dawn City is located.
He yawned, worrying about recent events and not knowing what to do next.
This morning he was woken up by a communication request from his old friend Zhang Sirui. There was nothing else to ask, just that he hoped he could help promote the Mewtwo game "Embers of Desolation".
After all, a large part of the money earned by Xianting Xinbu was used to develop the full version of "Embers of Demise", and Zhang Sirui and Zhao Zhen were both very worried about whether this Mewtwo could be successful.
They are all good brothers, so Li Yunhan has no reason to refuse.
I simply copied a few comments from the Internet, pieced them together, and posted them on my social media account.
In fact, despite his praise for "Embers of Demise" this time, most of his words are insincere.
Because a few days ago, when Li Yunhan was playing "A Stroll in the Garden", he also experienced "The Embers Are Going Out".
As a result, I was persuaded to leave in less than ten minutes!
He was already playing with a fairly objective and rational mindset, without letting his emotions get in the way, but his patience was quickly worn out.
He really couldn't imagine that the two Mewtwo games, "A Stroll in the Garden" and "Embers Are Going Out", were actually created by the same producer!
Li Yunhan had heard of Captain Chen She before, but had never met him.
All we know is that he performed well in the resistance army and completed the plan of replacing the Chen Group with a new one perfectly.
It is considered a relatively successful resistance army scattered on the old land. Although its scale is not large, the whole team is in good spirits.
Since the resistance movement suffered a major defeat, the remaining resistance fighters have been exploring the future path in different ways.
Li Yunhan chose to go undercover in Changye Entertainment Group in order to learn the most advanced super dream production concepts so that he could provide assistance to the resistance in the future.
Captain Chen She also decided to develop Mewtwo. It can be said that great minds think alike. They all saw the huge impact that the Mewtwo industry could have in the future and made arrangements in advance.
But then again, just looking at the Mewtwo in "Embers Are Going Out", Li Yunhan really couldn't understand Chen She's design concept.
This is just because they are both rebels, so he said a few nice words. If they didn't have this relationship, Li Yunhan would have already started to criticize him!
So this time he was rather vague. He just copied some good reviews from the Internet, mixed them together, and polished them based on his own understanding before publishing them.
As for whether it would work, Li Yunhan actually didn't care too much.
Because he knew very well that although he had many fans and had a certain amount of power as a gold medal producer, it was impossible for him to fundamentally change the fate of a Mewtwo.
The reason why "Strolling in the Garden" became popular is that it has the potential to become popular.
What about "The Last Embers"?
In addition to the online rumor that this Mewtwo can improve people's reaction speed and coordination in real life.
But after playing it, Li Yunhan felt that the perception was not obvious. He only played it for more than ten minutes and did not have much feeling about it, nor could he judge its authenticity.
Li Yunhan feels that most of the comments online are exaggerated, or simply an illusion.
Because this goes against his common sense in designing Mewtwo.
According to the principle of Mewtwo, even if there is a certain subtle effect, it should not be as immediate as it is hyped up on the Internet.
Li Yunhan had already sentenced Mewtwo, "Embers Are Going Out", to death in his heart, so he wouldn't take it too seriously even if he offered to help.
What's more, he is still busy with his own affairs.
After finishing his breakfast, Li Yunhan got up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of his high-end apartment. He looked at the magnificent headquarters of Changye Entertainment Group, feeling very confused.
Three years ago, he came to Changye Entertainment Group and gradually became a gold medal producer in the group.
But now, he once again felt the confusion he had felt during the period when the resistance army was defeated.
Changye Entertainment Group's design concept for Mewtwo is undergoing subtle changes, and this change makes him feel very uncomfortable.
"People at the bottom of society conduct all kinds of dangerous live broadcasts, trying every possible means, even harming their own health, just to get an audition opportunity and become a super dream star."
"And Mewtwo stars try every possible way to curry favor with Mewtwo producers, hoping to play a wonderful Mewtwo and make themselves more and more famous, fearing that they will become outdated one day."
"Mighty Dream Producers may seem to be at the top of the industry, but in reality they are just pawns in the hands of capital."
“Capital doesn’t need a good Mewtwo, it doesn’t need a brilliant Mewtwo, it only needs a Mewtwo that can brainwash people to make money and squeeze them to the maximum extent.”
"Long Night Entertainment Group will take action against me sooner or later. This is not only a dispute within the company over the concept of Mewtwo development, but also a result of naked interests."
Li Yunhan looked melancholy.
He could clearly feel that the top management of Changye Entertainment Group was gradually weakening the influence of these gold medal producers and was more inclined to use a modular and mass-producible approach to promote the development of the new Mewtwo.
If there is an algorithm or big data that can calculate what kind of Mewtwo is the most profitable, then Li Yunhan has no doubt that he will be unemployed in the next second, and the entire Changye Entertainment Group will promote this system or algorithm at all costs.
The reason is very simple. These Mewtwo producers have too much say, are often too proud, and attach too much importance to the artistry of Mewtwo.
This has greatly affected the revenue of Changye Entertainment Group's production of Mewtwo.
When Changye Entertainment Group was rising, these gold medal producers played a decisive role by producing one excellent Mewtwo after another.
But when Changye Entertainment Group has already monopolized the entire Super Dream research and development industry, the rules of the game are different.
Moreover, the Mewtwo producers are not a monolithic group.
Some Mewtwo producers actually support this trend of Long Night Entertainment Group. They wish there were only two kinds of Mewtwo left in the world.
One is the garbage Mewtwo, which relies purely on selling sensory enjoyment to stimulate players' emotions and maximize money.
The other is the fast-food Mewtwo, which appears to be high-end on the surface, constantly using various heroic characters and grand scenes to pile up epic stories, but in the final analysis it is still a mass-produced model, and there will be no impact even if the producer is replaced midway.
Because in that case, these Super Dream producers will have the opportunity to overtake and replace the gold medal producers above their heads.
Li Yunhan has his own artistic pursuits. He completely disagrees with this trend and does not want to make a garbage or fast-food Mewtwo. Instead, he wants to continue to retain his artistic exploration of commercial Mewtwo.
But the space left for him by Changye Entertainment Group is getting smaller and smaller.
As the situation continued to deteriorate, Li Yunhan felt that he would have to leave Changye Entertainment Group sooner or later. But he had no idea where he would go after leaving.
This made him feel a little confused.
Suddenly, the bracelet on the table vibrated a few times, as if there were some special prompts.
Li Yunhan picked it up and found that it was his social account. A large number of comments appeared in a short period of time.
"It's so funny, the car flipped over on the spot! A slap in the face at the speed of light!"
"Didn't you say that the best thing about Mewtwo in Ember of the Dead is its difficulty? And you said that the difficulty is just right, but the producer immediately changed the difficulty setting!"
“It feels like we’ve agreed on this, hahaha!”
"It shouldn't be that bad. Although these difficulty changes are quick, they can't be completed in just a few minutes. It will take at least two or three days. It looks like this wave of people may not be well coordinated."
"I didn't expect to see a big shot fail again. He reviewed so many games very appropriately, but this time he didn't praise them properly."
Li Yunhan was a little confused. He quickly opened the page of "Embers Are Going Out" and found that shortly after he posted this review on his social account, the official version of "Embers Are Going Out" was pushed out.
To put it simply, the previous numerical design was completely negated, and it was split into a low-difficulty coward version and a higher-difficulty death version!
Not to mention how much impact this change had on the players, the key point was that it made Li Yunhan embarrassed and he couldn't save face at all.
He had previously pieced together this review based on his own understanding of "Embers of Demise" and some relatively positive reviews on the Internet, but now the game's numerical design, which he highly praised, has been directly denied by the producer!
This kind of situation has never happened before, so many fans came to watch the fun.
It turns out that your understanding of Mewtwo, Li Yunhan, sometimes completely goes wrong?
Li Yunhan was confused!
If Li Yunhan didn't know Captain Chen She's true identity and that he was on the same side as him, he would have almost thought that the other party was deliberately messing with him.
How can you do that?
I worked hard to help you, but you turned around and sold me out. Is this appropriate?
Where are you from?
While feeling unconvinced, Li Yunhan also had strong doubts.
Why did Captain Chen She make such a change?
Shouldn't the wisest thing for him to do now be to give up this Mewtwo immediately?
Even if we know that the difficulty of this Mewtwo is too discouraging, if Captain Chen She wants to release a lower difficulty version, there is no need to make it so complicated. Can't we just release the simple mode directly?
Why split Mewtwo into two and call the simple one the coward version? Isn't this a blatant provocation and mockery to the players?
It gives people the feeling that they have completely given up on themselves.
Obviously, this is completely inconsistent with the personality of Captain Chen She that Li Yunhan knew.
"Could it be that Captain Chen She's behavior has a deeper meaning?"
"He was so optimistic about the Mewtwo in "Embers of Demise" that he made changes five times and never gave up even when the results were poor. Is there really something special about this Mewtwo?"
With a responsible attitude, Li Yunhan did not reply to the fans who were watching the fun under his account, but chose to play dead.
He entered the Mewtwo game cabin again with doubts, intending to calm down and experience the Mewtwo game "Embers of Desolation" carefully.
Once he understands the true situation of this Mewtwo, he will give fans a satisfactory answer!
…
afternoon.
Chen She and Wu Yisu were on the rooftop of the experience store, each holding a glass of wine and clinking their glasses together.
"cheers!"
Wu Yisu happily drank the wine in the glass.
"Boss Chen, thank you so much, I really don't know how to express my gratitude!"
"You not only solved the gang problem and maintained law and order in this area, but also greatly improved the business environment of the entire street. You also provided me with such a good idea, which made my bar an Internet celebrity bar in just a few days."
"I really can't repay you enough!"
"I don't have any special talents, so I can only buy you a couple of drinks."
Chen She felt the breeze blowing towards him and said, "You're welcome. This is just a piece of cake. The success of your bar is mainly due to your hard work."
Wu Yisu has been in a very good mood these days.
He used the method Chen She taught him and really attracted a lot of internet celebrities, making his bar famous and the number of customers soaring.
After the gang problem was completely resolved, the area became safe again and the business environment improved rapidly, all thanks to Chen She.
He has been running a bar in this area for a long time. Although he has worked diligently and saved a small amount of money, he has never made much progress in production and management.
And this time, there are finally signs of a leap forward in business. How can we not be happy?
While drinking, Wu Yisu said with emotion: "Boss Chen, you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. Many problems can be solved by just moving your fingers. It should be difficult for you to empathize with incompetent little people like us."
"My father gave me this name for a simple reason. He wanted me to be like a drop in the ocean, an ordinary person, not seeking to be rich and powerful, but to live a down-to-earth life."
"But with this surname, the meaning suddenly changed. I still remember how poor we were when we were little. Our family didn't even have a grain of rice."
"It was not until my father gave me all his food and starved to death that I made up my mind to make enough money in my life so that I would never have to endure hunger again."
"Boss Chen, what is your dream? To replace the Changye Entertainment Group and become the largest Super Dream research and development company?"
Chen She shook his head slightly: "I don't have any long-term goals, I'll just take it one step at a time."
Wu Yisu smiled. As a bar owner, his alcohol tolerance was not very good and he seemed to be a little drunk.
"Boss Chen, you must have a bigger goal in mind, but you just don't want to say it."
"It doesn't matter. I actually have a bigger goal."
Wu Yisu said, pointing his finger to the sky: "I want to leave the old land and go to the Silver Star!"
"People say that the Silver Star is a true paradise, where all the good things that remain in the human world can be found."
“I want to make enough money to become a Liming City Councillor, and then participate in the Silver Star Construction Program, so that I can successfully get a ticket to Silver Star.”
"For this, I am willing to give everything!"
Chen She looked up. It was not dark yet, so he could not see any stars or the moon.
And even at night, no stars can be seen in the sky due to the energy shield that blocks the time snow.
But the direction Wu Yisu pointed to was very clear, as if the silver star had been deeply imprinted in his mind, and he would always remember its position in the sky.
