Chapter 039: The mutual appreciation between the gold medal Mewtwo producers 1
Chen She came to the reception room and answered the communication request.
This was the first time he saw Li Yunhan in a holographic projection. He had only seen photos of Li Yunhan on social accounts before.
I have to say, he is quite handsome in real life. Chen She estimated that he is about three times as handsome as himself.
"Mr. Chen, I've heard a lot about you. Your super dream design concept has a wild imagination, which inspires me a lot." Li Yunhan was still very polite and complimented Chen She at the beginning.
After all, they are both resistance fighters who are still holding on, sharing the same ideals and beliefs, and are natural allies.
Chen She couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
I didn’t expect that Li Yunhan is such a high EQ contestant.
High EQ: Your super dream design concept has a wild imagination, which inspires me a lot.
Low EQ: What the hell is this Chaomeng thing of yours? Why don’t you play by the rules at all? Is this how a human would play?
Chen She knew exactly what kind of Mewtwo "Embers Are Going Out" was.
Chen She highly suspected that Li Yunhan had never really played the game and had quickly quit because he was tortured. Otherwise, why had he done such a perfunctory review before, which was obviously just a copy and paste of the good reviews from online players?
Of course, Chen She didn't mean to blame Li Yunhan for not playing the game seriously or writing the review seriously. He was simply a little dissatisfied with the fact that he clearly didn't like this Mewtwo but still praised it out of friendship with the resistance, stabbing him in the back.
Chen She also smiled politely: "You're welcome. I have also added your account as a special follow."
Li Yunhan was a little flattered: "Really? I'm so honored. Mr. Chen, do you have an account? I'll follow it, too?"
Chen She shook his head: "That's not necessary."
He secretly complained in his heart: Brother, have you figured out your identity?
We are the rebels, we are the rebels! And we even have a social media account to become an internet celebrity? Are you afraid that you won't die fast enough?
Who among the serious anti-traitors would hold a loud speaker and broadcast himself every day?
How could Chen She, such a steady person, do such a stupid thing? He had already made up his mind to make it impossible for any information about himself to be found on the Internet!
Otherwise, with such advanced technology in this world, if something really happened, wouldn’t it only take a few minutes for DCPD to follow the network cable and check the water meter?
Chen She didn't want to get too entangled with Li Yunhan, so he quickly changed the subject: "Brother Yunhan, although we hit it off right away, there is one thing I still need to explain to you."
"I know a lot about the game "Embers of Desolation", so you don't have to be so polite. Although we are good brothers, I also hope that you can speak the truth and express your true thoughts. Don't blur your principles as a game reviewer because of our special relationship."
Every word Chen She said came from his heart.
He did set Li Yunhan's account as a special follow and also set a special alert tone. The reason was simple. In case Li Yunhan wanted to stab him in the back, he had to get a warning in advance!
Only after receiving early warning can we respond accordingly.
As for why I want Li Yunhan to speak the truth, of course it is because I hope he can follow his heart and criticize the Mewtwo in "Embers of Desolation" to help him achieve his goals.
Chen She thought that he shouldn't be too hostile to Li Yunhan.
Because of Li Yunhan's existence, it is actually equivalent to an amplifier.
When Chen She made "Walking in the Garden", he hoped to make a small profit, and when he made "The Embers Are Going Out", he hoped to make a small loss. But the key is that Li Yunhan indiscriminately praised it, which went against Chen She's fundamental direction.
What if Li Yunhan praises "Strolling in the Garden" and criticizes "The Embers Are Going Out"?
Isn't that equivalent to two negatives equaling a positive?
As long as Li Yunhan can respect his own inner thoughts and objectively evaluate the Mewtwo developed by Chen She, his existence will only be an amplifier, multiplying Chen She's profit and loss targets.
It can still maintain the balance that Chen She hoped for.
Because the communication of the bracelet is not absolutely safe and may be monitored by the Silver Star Federation or some hacker organizations, Chen She certainly cannot explain it too clearly. However, he thinks that Li Yunhan is a smart person and should be able to understand the meaning of his words.
Li Yunhan was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Captain Chen She would be so direct.
He frowned slightly, his brain working rapidly.
Mr. Chen...what does this mean?
Are you playing the riddle with me?
Well, the Riddler's argument is reasonable. After all, we are afraid that the bracelet's communications will be monitored. After all, we are the resistance, so we still need some code words... and we are all smart people. Smart people speak on the same channel and can easily understand each other.
Captain Chen She's words apparently meant that he was well aware that the Mewtwo in "Embers of Demise" was not very well made, and that there was no need for me to praise it just because we were both members of the resistance. Instead, I should stick to my principles and make an objective evaluation of this Mewtwo.
But...it doesn't make sense!
Captain Chen She is obviously capable of creating an excellent Mewtwo like "A Stroll in the Garden", so there is no reason for him not to see the problems in "Embers Are Going Out".
Even if you took some detours at the beginning, but so many players have complained about it, you should have some idea in your mind, right?
If Captain Chen She knew that there were serious problems with "The Embers Are Going Out", why didn't he just change it, but also release a complete version, and even split it into a death version and a coward version?
The only reasonable explanation is that Captain Chen She looked at his own review on his social media account and realized that he just copied and pasted the comments of other players, which was very insincere. So, Captain Chen She criticized his own behavior: he praised the game, but he didn't praise the point at all!
That's why Captain Chen She said that he hoped he could stick to his original intention and principles. On the one hand, this was to strengthen his belief, and on the other hand, it was also to hint to him that only by truly experiencing it with his heart could he feel the extraordinaryness of "Embers Are Going Out"!
Thinking of this, Li Yunhan had some insights.
Because he thought about his recent experience of suffering in "The Embers Are Out", and he seemed to feel something different.
It's just that on the one hand he has been very irritable recently and hasn't been able to completely calm down, and on the other hand "The Embers Are Out" is not yet a complete version, so his feelings are not yet clear.
Thinking of this, Li Yunhan nodded and said, "Okay, Mr. Chen, after the full version of "Embers Will Go Out" is released, I will definitely experience it carefully as soon as possible and give an objective and fair evaluation!"
When Chen She heard this, he couldn't help but smile.
Not bad, young man. You understand things quickly. You have a bright future.
Both parties were very satisfied with the results of this communication.
Li Yunhan remembered the important matter and said quickly: "Mr. Chen, I actually have very important information to inform you this time."
"The new Mewtwo, Under the Blade, which was created at great expense by the Long Night Entertainment Group, is scheduled to be released on the first of next month! This Mewtwo is an S-level project within the Long Night Entertainment Group, developed by the gold medal producer Corey."
"Although I really don't like some of the designs in this Mewtwo, I have to admit that this Mewtwo is definitely a terrible enemy that no Mewtwo producer wants to encounter in the next three months!"
"Because the R&D and publicity funds for this Mewtwo will be overwhelming, and it will directly dominate all channels. Changye Entertainment Group is very good at creating momentum. As long as the wind is strong enough, even a pig can be blown into the sky!"
"So, it's really not a good time to release the full version of "Embers Are Going Out" now. Mr. Chen should think twice. If it really doesn't work, postponing it for a month or two to avoid the limelight temporarily is also a good idea."
Chen She's eyes lit up: "Oh?"
"I wonder what type of Mewtwo this "Under the Blade" is?"
Li Yunhan thought about it for a while and said, "This... is really hard to define, because there are too many elements in it."
“Although it is a role-playing Mewtwo game overall, there are also a lot of experience-based content, played by several very popular Mewtwo stars.”
“The story is as follows: a team is in the wilderness, facing the surging space-time creatures. They fight against the space-time creatures to protect the safety of the city, sometimes defending and sometimes attacking. Players can play different roles and use different methods such as cold weapons and firearms to fight.”
"However, considering that there are too many gun-fighting Mewtwo on the market, this Mewtwo focuses on cold weapons and only uses guns as a supplementary gameplay, hoping to attract players who like gun-fighting Mewtwo. That's why it's called "Under the Blade."
"If the only advantage of Embers Is Dying is the price, it is probably one-third of that of The Blade. But the problem is that the development and promotion costs of The Blade are more than ten times that of Embers Is Dying!"
"Mr. Chen, I don't think it's necessary to be so stubborn."
Chen She couldn't help but be shocked. Wow, Changye Entertainment Group is really a tycoon, so rich!
Lishan Technology developed the full version of "Embers Are Going Out" with the money earned from the popularity of "A Walk in the Garden", while Changye Entertainment Group was only a super dream project of a gold medal producer, but it was able to mobilize funds ten times higher than that of "Embers Are Going Out".
Compared with these wealthy chaebols, Lishan Technology is really a poor guy now.
But it’s also okay this way. On the bright side, “Under the Blade” just provides Chen She with a perfect excuse to pass the buck!
At that time, Chen She can say that it was not because of his production of "Embers of Demise" that was not good, the key was that the other party did not abide by the ethics of martial arts, the funds and resources of both sides were not on the same level, so it was not surprising that they lost.
At that time, the rebel employees will naturally not be too harsh on Chen She. Instead, they will comfort him, which will not affect Chen She's prestige at all.
If "Embers of Demise" sells a little bit more and recovers some funds, the capital chain here will not be broken and will still be maintained in a perfect balance.
Isn't this perfect?
Chen She smiled slightly: "Thank you for the reminder, I will pay attention to it."
Li Yunhan nodded. It seemed that Captain Chen She was indeed a smart man. He knew that a man of insight is a wise man and knew how to avoid the sharp edge.
This way, you can rest assured.
After the limelight has passed and "Embers of Demise" is released, Li Yunhan will seriously promote it again, which should have a good effect.
Thinking of this, Li Yunhan ended the call after saying "I hope we can meet soon."
Chen She sent a notice to the employees of Lishan Technology Group.
"Everyone cheer up, we will officially go online on the 1st of next month! This time we will collide with Changye Entertainment Group's "Under the Blade", but it doesn't matter, as long as everyone works together, we will definitely be able to smash Changye Entertainment Group to pieces!"

Tuesday, April 1st.
Wu Yisu was busy in his own bar.
Ever since the Shark Gang and the Jungle Gang were taken over by Boss Chen, only a few of the original gang members, such as Zeng Hailong, would come here at night to play Mewtwo.
He no longer collects protection fees, no longer causes trouble, and even greets acquaintances politely when he sees them.
Wu Yisu found it amazing.
It is not surprising that Boss Chen broke up the two gangs and maintained law and order in the area. After all, even a fool can see that the Lishan Technology Group is not simple and Boss Chen has a strong background.
But it is a bit outrageous that Boss Chen was able to transform the minds of gangsters like Zeng Hailong and turn them into good people who go to work diligently every day!
The fact that so many people obey Boss Chen's orders is enough to show that Boss Chen is indeed very capable and has a strong personal charm.
In recent days, Wu Yisu found that the experience store across the street was undergoing a lot of renovation, and he didn't know what was installed.
Wu Yisu felt very puzzled. Logically speaking, the decoration of this experience store was already over the standard and too bright and beautiful to the point that it was a bit out of tune with the surrounding shops. Why was it still being decorated?
I don’t know what’s installed.
While Wu Yisu was collecting the cups, he suddenly discovered that the content of the electronic billboard outside the Super Dream Experience Store opposite had changed!
At the beginning, the content on the billboard was a promotional picture of the trial version of "Embers Are Out", but no one went there and it was very deserted; later it was replaced with a trial video of "A Stroll in the Garden" and an introduction to the reward rules. After Wu Yisu took a few young people to experience it, the experience store quickly became popular.
But now, the heat has dropped a little.
After all, the gameplay of Mewtwo like "Walking in the Garden" is simple, but people get bored quickly. After this trend passed, various similar Mewtwo began to emerge, and the advertising effect of the billboard was greatly reduced, and it could not attract new customers.
Now, the billboard has changed its content again!
This time it seems to be the promotional content for the complete version of Mewtwo in "Embers Are Out", but the promotional picture has been changed.
Wu Yisu originally wanted to say: It’s a good change. The previous promotional picture was completely ineffective and it really should be changed.
But after taking a closer look, I realized what the hell had been replaced!
Not as good as before.
It was just a gray fog with some bright lights flickering underneath. The slogan was simple and crude, with only four big words: Come and die!
Of course, it is a bilingual version in both Eastern and Western languages.
Wu Yisu couldn't help but slap his forehead. "Oh no! It looks like Boss Chen has given up on himself, right? Has he thought that the publicity for Embers Will Go Out wasn't that good to begin with, so he just let himself go?"
"But this definitely won't work!"
"Could it be that the person in charge is confused? Boss Chen was so smart when he gave me advice, why is he so confused when it comes to himself?"
Wu Yisu knew very well that the trial version of "Ember of Demise" had already been released in the experience store, but apart from the gangsters like Zeng Hailong, there were no other serious customers playing it.
Although Zeng Hailong and others still come here at night, how many people are there?
The Mewtwo game "Embers Are Going Out" will definitely need to attract a lot of new players to survive.
But looking at this publicity plan, it makes people feel like they have completely given up on themselves!
Wu Yisu was a little puzzled, why didn't Boss Chen organize another event, like "Walking in the Garden", where players would be rewarded if they cleared "Embers Are Going Out".
Although this activity is nothing new, under the temptation of money, there will still be many brave warriors who will challenge it.
"Boss, another drink!"
Wu Yisu's thoughts were interrupted, and he quickly responded, "Coming!"
Finally, he looked back at the experience store. Wu Yisu couldn't leave at all and could only pray silently for Boss Chen.
If that doesn't work, Wu Yisu thought he would have to return the favor and let his own bar direct traffic to the experience store.
People can never forget their roots!
