Chapter 324 It’s confirmed, Honghuang is selling CG
Despite having already taken the lead.
But the impending trend still made Chen Lin dare not relax.
As soon as I returned to the studio, I immediately called Lao Song to ask about the opening status of the Honghuang platform.
"I asked someone to do a count this morning. A total of 245 games were put on the shelves on the first day. Most of them are relatively small and old games that can be quickly ported."
"But the sales performance is very good, averaging more than 10,000, with a total revenue of 187 million a day. Based on a 30% commission, after deducting taxes and operating costs, we made about 30 million!"
30 million a day.
Even money printing machines aren't that fast.
This is just the beginning.
As more games and more platform users appear in the future, this number will be even more terrifying.
Lao Song now finally understands why no one has been able to shake the popularity of Steam and the three major consoles.
Just based on the speed at which they make money, other companies cannot beat them even if they spend money to seize the market!
"So much? It seems that the funds we spent in the early stage will be recovered soon."
Chen Lin is very poor now, and almost all of his funds are used to research and develop equipment to expand production capacity.
Now that we are finally open for business, of course we have to make a lot of money to make up for the losses, otherwise we will have no money to make games and shoot CG in the future.
"That's right."
At this time, Lao Song thought of something: "Lao Li just said that the porting of the old game is almost finished, and he wanted to ask if we should make a new game to promote the platform."
"A new game..." Chen Lin fell into thought. "That's fine. Otherwise, there is only one game, "Sword Art Online". The game types are still too few. What kind of games are performing best on the virtual side now?"
"Casual games." Old Song answered without hesitation, "There has been a wave of nostalgia recently, and many old casual games have become popular."
"Leisure?"
Chen Lin was a little surprised.
He was busy going out to discuss business these two days and did not pay too much attention to the news in this regard.
I thought the first popular games would be various action games, but unexpectedly it was casual games.
It seems that this type of game is highly compatible with the virtual end.
In other words, players' acceptance has not yet been improved.
After all, the virtual terminal has just appeared, and players are basically still in the adaptation period.
Casual games that are easy to entertain and simple to operate naturally become the first choice for adaptation, and they can be started faster.
For example, in "Sword Art Online".
Many people choose casual play, such as sightseeing, fishing and traveling, because they are not used to high-intensity combat. Among them are even many people who are playing the game for the first time.
These are the basics of casual games.
"Then let's make a simpler game. If we do it faster, we can still catch up." Chen Lin made the decision immediately.
It just so happened that he wanted his employees to familiarize themselves with the production processes of various types of games so that they would be able to deal with various changes in the future.
It's just like Ren Tiandi.
Although it has its own platform, it has never stopped developing game IPs and enhancing the influence of the platform through games.
Thinking of this, he opened the drawer and handed a plan to Lao Song.
"This is it. Give it to Lao Li."
"This is..." Old Song took the plan curiously, with a strange look on his face, "Kart Rider, this name... is really special."
He took a quick look through it and found that although the gameplay was simple, many of the designs were eye-catching. If it were ported to a virtual terminal, it might really shine.
“Is this going to be a full-platform thing?”
"Let's do it. Players don't always carry their virtual devices with them. They still use PCs and mobile phones more during the day."
"Okay, I'll go find Lao Li right away."
Old Song closed the plan, turned around and left, went outside and took the elevator to the floor where Dawn was.
After purchasing this office building.
The three major teams, Dawn, Daybreak, and Online Games, have been divided into different floors, which makes management easier.
only.
When Lao Song came downstairs and walked out of the elevator, he suddenly heard Lao Li's roars echoing in the floors.
"Get out! Get back to work!"
"If you look at me again, I'll dig your eyes out!"
"Who is your brother-in-law? Get out of here right now!"
Good job.
The roar almost caused the floor to collapse.
Old Song looked puzzled and walked over following the sound.
But he found that Lao Li was standing in front of a group of employees, protecting a young girl in a white dress behind him, as if protecting a calf.
"Boss Song!"
Suddenly, an employee noticed Lao Song and shouted.
"What Boss Song, you guys are trying to trick me again!"
Old Li subconsciously turned around and actually saw Old Song standing behind him. He was immediately startled.
"Damn it, Old Song, why didn't you say hello before you came? You almost scared me to death."
"Why, can't I come? And what are you guys doing? The whole building can almost hear you."
Old Song looked at the girl behind Old Li curiously.
She has long hair, is gentle and well-behaved, and has a look that is somewhat similar to Old Li, but she is a little more fragile, and her face is slightly pale, as if she has just recovered from a serious illness.
Just one glance.
He roughly guessed the whole story.
He couldn't help but look at Lao Li with a strange expression.
"It's these stinky boys who are trying to get my sister. Why don't you take a piss and see what kind of character you have? Are you worthy of my sister?"
Old Li’s eyes widened with anger, as if he had become a different person.
"elder brother!"
The girl was embarrassed and wanted to stop him.
But Lao Li refused to give in and kept guarding against all the employees as if they were thieves.
Finally, it was Old Song who stepped forward and said with a smile, "Okay, all of you go back to your posts. Old Li, this is your sister, right?"
I can't tell.
I really can't tell.
Old Li, this rough guy, actually has such a beautiful sister.
Good bamboo shoots come out of bad bamboo.
After some questions.
I then realized it was Lao Li’s sister, Li Lingyue, who had recovered and been discharged from the hospital and came to the company to visit Lao Li and brought him lunch.
As a result, he was seen by the bachelors in Dawn, who told him that Lao Li had a younger sister, and they immediately called him brother-in-law.
That’s how what happened next happened.
"These brats, if they want to be my brother-in-law, it's a hundred years too early!"
As he watched all the employees leave, Lao Li was still cursing.
Old Song knew his temper, so he could only shake his head helplessly, then looked at Li Lingyue.
"Lingyue has just been discharged from the hospital, so she probably hasn't gone anywhere yet, right?"
"Well, I'm practicing painting at home now. I haven't found a suitable place yet."
Li Lingyue looked gloomy. She had been bedridden all these years, which was already a big burden to others.
So after I recovered, I wanted to find a job as soon as possible so that I could be self-reliant and no longer be a burden to my brother.
But after it really came out.
But she found that the times had advanced to the point where she could hardly adapt.
After failing several interviews, I finally had to try my best in other areas, such as doing housework and bringing meals to my brother.
“It’s developing really fast now.”
Old Song agreed and said, "Well, do you want to come to work in our studio? We are recruiting painters. You should be able to get started quickly with your painting skills."
“Is this… okay?”
Old Li was a little hesitant, but at the same time he was tempted.
He really couldn't bear to see his sister running around outside every day, looking at people's faces and being wronged.
"Of course, she can, but you should know the rules. Internal connections are useless here. If you want to be promoted, you have to show your ability and achievements, so she can only start from the grassroots."
"No problem!" Li Lingyue answered without hesitation, "As long as I can get a job, I'm not afraid of any hardship or fatigue!"
"Okay then. I'll ask HR to register you later."
Old Song nodded, and did not dwell on this matter for too long, but directly took out the plan in his hand.
"I helped you with this, now it's your turn to show your worth."
"Is this... a new game plan?"
Old Li took the plan with surprise, and the employees who had just sat back next to him also looked at him sideways.
It's been such a long time.
Is there finally a new plan?
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. I'll go back and get busy first."
Old Song stood up and left, disappearing in the elevator soon after.
Lao Li took the plan and called all the team leaders together to discuss the game production process.
This little farce.
It also ended completely due to the emergence of new projects and turned into a heated discussion meeting.
Li Lingyue stood next to Lao Li, listening to their discussion very seriously and trying hard to integrate into the team.
…
The production cycle of "KartRider" is not long.
With the full efforts of the Dawn team, the game was basically completed in just one and a half months and entered the stage of improvement and optimization, and also multi-platform adaptation.
And during this period.
This shocking piece of news also caused a sensation in the entire film and television industry.
Tianhe Pictures publicly announced that it will officially enter Honghuang Virtual Reality and release its first virtual movie "Mr. Zombie", a zombie horror film starring Lin Zhengying.
"What the hell! Mr. Zombie?"
“It’s actually this old movie!”
“What does a virtual movie look like?”
"Will the zombies just stick to your face?"
"Or is it like 3D glasses?"
"No, I have to buy a virtual helmet!"
Speculations about virtual movies have also been a hot topic on the Internet recently.
Many people speculate that it should be like a virtual game, allowing people to experience the plot immersively and feel the grand scenes and shocking special effects up close.
The most important thing.
You can get close to your idol!
Even if it's just a video, it's enough to make countless fans scream with excitement.
For a moment.
The sales of Honghuang virtual helmets have skyrocketed again.
The production capacity that had just been eased has suddenly reached the point where it is almost sold out, and it is difficult to find a helmet online.
Just at this moment.
Honghuang also issued an announcement shortly afterwards.
[Honghuang Studio (official): To celebrate the establishment of Honghuang Virtual, we will open a new film and television section in addition to the game section, which will be used for the release of various game CGs and film and television works. Everyone is welcome to come and experience it. 】
Movie and TV partition?
Netizens who saw the news were stunned.
Then I reacted immediately.
"Fuck! You're really amazing."
"Haha, they're here as expected. After selling the games, they're selling the CGs."
"You don't even want to pretend now, do you?"
"Eventually, they extended their claws to the virtual end as well."
"As expected of you, Honghuang."
"It's okay, give me more, I like to watch."
After selling the game, sell the CG and make two profits at once. This is an old tradition in Honghuang, which makes old players laugh out loud.
It really doesn't matter where you go.
Honghuang is still thinking about his box office revenue.
But every time a CG is released, they can’t help but buy it.
It's completely out of touch with the world.
As for the virtualization of "Zombie Movie".
It has become the focus of attention of countless film and television circles and the entertainment industry.
Because they all know that Honghuang has always cooperated with Tianhe Pictures.
The appearance of this movie should be an attempt by both companies to test the market response of virtual movies, so they specially chose a well-known IP.
After all, many investors are the type who won't release their eagles until they see the rabbit.
Until they are truly certain that virtual movies will be 100% popular, they will definitely not invest freely and will basically remain on the sidelines.
"The success or failure of this old film by Tianhe will determine the future direction of the film and entertainment industry."
“If it’s a big success, then we’ll have to consider entering the virtual market in full.”
Inside an entertainment company.
The top executives gathered together and paid attention to this matter.
"Didn't they say that the four stars from Jianghai Entertainment became instantly popular after they shot a game CG for Honghuang?" someone said.
"Indeed, I heard that Zhou Fuhai's mouth was crooked from laughing, and he made four of his artists famous for nothing."
Just with a ten-minute wedding CG in the game, several actors who were almost out of date became popular again. This was something they never expected, and they also fully understood the horror of the primitive virtual world.
So this time, they are very concerned about the film and television section launched by Honghuang.
Once Tianhe Pictures' movies become a huge success, they will increase their investment in the virtual industry without hesitation and allow their artists to shoot virtual movies and TV series.
Wait until it becomes popular.
Isn’t it just about making whoever you want famous?
