Chapter 125 You’ll Know When You Get to My Age
“Hahahaha… so cool!”
As we wandered around the headquarters, a hearty laugh echoed throughout the office.
Like Huanhai, they also keep a close eye on the developments of the three major console platforms.
When they learned that Huanhai's sales were not doing well, several senior executives were in a good mood, and the atmosphere was completely different from that of Zeng Fuming and others.
"It seems that our plan was successful. Although we cannot defeat Huanhai, it will definitely have an impact on their financial report for the next quarter."
A senior executive said with a smile.
For listed companies like these, quarterly financial reports are related to the interests of shareholders and are what they care about most.
Once there is a sharp decline.
This will inevitably lead to shareholder accountability and even early withdrawal of investment, which will have a huge impact on the company's development.
If it were Huanhai during its heyday, it might be able to restore stock market confidence with powerful means.
But now...
I guess it’s enough for them to drink a pot.
What Changyou did was just to follow the marketing strategies of Nintendo and Juying .
Even if Suo Ni gets angry at that time, he will go after these two rivals, and it has little to do with them.
"The only thing I didn't expect was that Honghuang's game actually surpassed Soni's exclusive masterpiece and was close to the other two."
The director sitting in the first seat spoke in a low voice with a hint of solemnity.
Games that can become platform exclusives are basically blockbuster projects developed by major domestic and foreign manufacturers with great effort. The quality and content have undergone countless screenings and are absolutely impeccable.
Coupled with the platform's full support and resource allocation, as long as you don't do anything stupid, you can basically become the sales champion of the quarter.
To put it bluntly.
So many resources are invested.
Even a pig can fly to the sky.
However, the game Honghuang has firmly sat in the top three just by relying on its own publicity and promotion investment, and is showing a trend of catching up with the two masterpieces of Juyongguan.
It's impossible not to be shocked.
"This Honghuang is indeed worthy of attention. I have observed their actions during this period, and it is not something that an ordinary studio can do."
"The technical level and employee loyalty are both very high. I heard that Huanhai tried to poach people before, but only managed to find some insignificant low-level employees."
"Indeed, except for the lack of scale and original accumulation, other aspects are not weak. This Honghuang boss is not simple."
"If possible, let's cooperate more in the future. I heard that several giants have recently extended their hands to the game industry. I'm afraid we alone will not be able to resist."
The director sat in the first seat, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.
They are considered a well-known company in the gaming industry.
But when faced with real capital, it's nothing.
The first thing capital needs to do when entering the market is to compete for resources.
Even the torrent of competition caused by the giants may swallow them up without leaving anything behind, so they still have to plan ahead.
And this.
This is exactly what Honghuang is doing.
…
"Chen Lin, I just did a rough calculation. After taking into account the revenue from the newly released game and the CG movie box office, and deducting the development and operation costs, we still have about 700 million yuan left."
In Honghuang's office, Lao Song came to Chen Lin with a report.
"700 million? Not bad."
Chen Lin took the report and looked at it.
For game manufacturers, the production cost of a game involves many aspects.
Development, production, promotion, operation, copyright, equipment, and consumables are basically the big expenses.
Especially the human resources involved in operations.
Don't underestimate this item. The prices offered by professional technicians in the market are generally very high, and tens of thousands of yuan per month is just the basics.
Making a game requires not just one technician, but dozens, hundreds or even more.
Add to that other low-tech personnel, and the added number would amount to a terrifying investment.
Many companies are actually crushed by this item.
fortunately.
The sales of these games have been good recently.
The accumulated funds are almost enough for them to cope with subsequent market changes.
So the two of them didn't talk too much, just said a few simple words and then went about their own business.
…
And at this time.
The impact of the entry of the three major console platforms continues.
Through word of mouth among players, the game "It Takes Two" quickly entered the public eye.
In less than a week.
This game has created a craze among gamers.
Whether lovers, couples, besties, or friends, they all came here to buy this game after being recommended by many people.
I thought it was just a simple two-player game like jumping blocks.
As soon as they started, they found something was wrong.
Because this game is not only well-made and rich in content, but also contains profound family implications.
Many men and women who are facing similar situations have found their own shadows in the game and have become deeply involved in it.
As a result, topics related to this game suddenly popped up one after another.
＃If you love him/her, play through "It Takes Two" with him/her＃
＃Only those who truly love each other can complete this game. ＃
＃Want to find your soulmate? Then play "It Takes Two"! ＃
#Two people come together, I will only marry you. #
I have to say.
This generation of netizens is still very good at finding topics.
In just a few days, various touching plots and hidden Easter eggs in this game were discovered and made into videos that quickly spread online.
Some people even reconciled with their lovers because of this game and calmed down to discuss the problems they were having with each other.
A large number of comments also emerged below the game homepage.
[This is the best two-player cooperative game I have ever played.]
[I was really moved, especially the part where I stood on the stage at the end. I also had a dream...]
[Cherish the people around you, hold on a little longer, and communicate your ideas seriously, and maybe you can keep going. ]
[My mood is very complicated. Seeing the characters in the game is like seeing myself. But it’s a pity that we didn’t reconcile like Cody and Xiaomei. The game is great. I wish everyone happiness.]
[This game is good, but it is too troublesome for one person to control two characters. I hope it can be optimized. ]
These are the real feelings of players after playing this game.
It is like an understanding of life, and also like a journey to find the original intention.
It is these sincere words that attract more and more players to join in and experience this game that is praised by so many people.
That fiery scene.
Not only other manufacturers were caught off guard.
Even the Honghuang employees who were responsible for producing this game were shocked.
"Wow, so this game we made is so awesome? I didn't think it was anything special." A Guang said blankly.
Du Xing, who was standing next to him, chuckled and said, "You have never experienced love, so of course you don't understand. You will know when you reach my age."
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving A Guang with a stunned look on his face.
"Wait, you seem to be a few years younger than me?"
