Chapter 385: Three vs. One, the Advantage is in My Hands
"Okay, let's talk about this month's equipment sales."
Honghuang, in the conference room.
Exactly one month has passed since the second-generation equipment was released. Chen Lin, Lao Song and Lao Li are sitting at their seats again, analyzing the data submitted by each branch.
You can see it.
At this moment, Old Song's expression was very high, and he was even slightly excited.
You know it without thinking.
Sales this month should be better than expected.
"All branches have just sent back the data. The sales of the second-generation equipment this time are indeed a bit beyond my expectations."
Old Song took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone steady.
"Why don't you tell me how much you sold it for?"
Old Li urged hurriedly, unable to wait to hear the result.
If it were any other time, Old Song would definitely keep it a secret for him.
But today, he just smiled and then slowly said, "110 million. We sold a total of 110 million new devices this month!"
"Breaking 100 million?"
Even Chen Lin was moved now.
During the first month of sales explosion, he thought the sales would exceed 50 million, but he did not expect it to directly exceed 100 million.
"Yes, with these 110 million devices, our total global sales have now reached over 1 billion!"
Old Song's voice could no longer be suppressed, and was filled with deep excitement.
You have to know that the current world population is only 7 billion.
1 billion users, which means 1 in every 7 people is using their devices. This market share is terrifying!
It is no exaggeration to say.
Now they have the potential to break into the top 100 companies in the world!
"One billion! Is that so much?"
Old Li’s eyes widened, he thought it would be only 900 million at most.
It seems that their promotion was very successful this time, and virtual imaging and new games boosted sales.
There is this user base.
They can almost be said to be invincible, and it is basically impossible for other virtual platforms to catch up.
It made his whole face smile.
In comparison.
Chen Lin seemed much calmer.
He stroked his chin with one hand, lost in thought.
"In this way, it should be no problem to make a game with sales of 500 million..."
“500 million sales?”
Hearing his mumbling, Lao Song was stunned: "It's probably difficult to have a game with sales of 500 million. The game industry has been developing for so many years, and there has never been a game with sales exceeding 500 million."
"Our best-selling game, Minecraft, has just exceeded 200 million, right?" Lao Li followed up.
They didn't know why Chen Lin wanted to hit 500 million, they just thought he wanted to set a record and break the history of his predecessors.
Think about it this way.
It seems quite exciting.
But it is not easy to achieve, otherwise it would be impossible that no game has achieved it in decades.
Because this is simply an impossible goal!
"No."
Suddenly, Chen Lin raised his head.
"There is a game that can reach this level, and we already have the conditions to make it!"
"What game?"
Old Song and Old Li spoke at the same time.
They were really a little curious, is there really such a game in the world?
Nothing else to say.
A sales volume of 500 million means that at least half of the people on the entire platform must have purchased the product.
Add to that the sales on PC, even if each copy of the game only sells for 1 dollar, not every game can achieve that.
A game that reaches this level is no longer just a game, but a milestone.
A milestone in the global gaming industry!
If they can really do it, they will surely go down in history as the undisputed overlords of the game, an existence that no one can shake!
But this.
Is it really possible?
“I just have a preliminary idea.”
Chen Lin glanced at the two of them, and his expression returned to calm. "This concept may cause some changes to the world. I need to think about it again. I will come back to you when I have an answer."
After saying.
He stood up and left the meeting room.
Old Song and Old Li looked at his receding back, with a hint of confusion on their faces.
"Boss Song, do you feel that Mr. Chen is different today than usual?"
Old Li touched his head and looked out of the crowded conference room.
"Yeah, it's indeed different." Old Song nodded slightly, his eyes deep, "I feel like he seems to be hesitant and a little worried."
It's a very subtle change, but when it happens to Chen Lin, it has a completely different meaning.
Because it was the first time they saw Chen Lin like this.
Ever since the establishment of Honghuang, Chen Lin always gave them the feeling that he was in control of everything and always had a confident expression on his face.
Even when faced with huge problems, he always appears calm and composed, as if nothing can stump him.
But just now.
But he hesitated.
This is indeed very rare, which is why they were surprised.
"Forget it. He will come to us when he has the result. Let's just deal with the work at hand first."
Given the scale of Honghuang, any move will have an impact on all walks of life, so it is always right to be cautious.
So the two of them didn't say much.
Following Chen Lin, he stood up and left the meeting room to prepare for the new game.
Because today is the day of the players' competition.
…
The world of cultivating immortals.
At the junction of the sects, there is the Demon-Suppressing City.
As the largest city at the junction of major sects, the Demon-Suppressing City was extremely lively at this time, and a large number of players gathered there.
Countless players who have reached the foundation-building stage came from all directions on flying swords to participate in this sect competition.
Even the disciples of the Wanjian Sect, led by the weapon refining elder Li Qinfeng, boarded a flying boat and crossed countless mountains and rivers to arrive above the territory of the Demon Suppression City.
"arrive!"
"Sister Xiao'er, look! We've arrived at the Demon Suppression City!"
Beside the flying boat, Ouyang Xiao and others, riding on flying swords, flew through the clouds, looking at the huge city rising gradually in the distance with excitement.
Around them, there were many players flying with swords, cheering and performing various somersaults in the sky, shuttling back and forth .
As for the ones on the flying boat, there were new players who had not yet reached the foundation-building stage but wanted to come and see the world, their eyes full of envy.
"I really envy them for reaching the foundation-building stage so quickly."
"Yeah, I also want to try sword flying."
"If I had known this, I would have played this game as soon as possible."
"I am only one foundation-building pill away from a breakthrough."
"Me too, but I still want to come and watch the sect competition first."
"I don't know which sect will win this time."
"It is said that the top leader of the Fire God Sect has already reached the third level of foundation building."
No matter which game it is, there is always a hardcore player.
Not long after the majority of players broke through the foundation-building stage, some big guys had already reached the third level of foundation-building.
Although the attributes are not enough to crush others, it still has a huge advantage and is also the favorite to win this sect competition.
"Okay, get ready to land."
At this time, a group of elders and deacons of the Wanjian Sect walked out of the cabin and controlled the flying boat to descend.
Because there is a no-fly zone and city wall guards in the Demon-Suppressing City, you must enter through the city gate.
Seeing this, the players flying on swords outside also landed on the ground and followed the team through the city gate.
“Wow, so many people!”
As soon as we entered the city, a wave of heat hit us.
Ouyang Xiao and the others were instantly stunned by the bustling scene before them. Everywhere they looked were players.
Many of them had rushed here from all over in advance for the sect competition. They looked exhausted and were wandering around aimlessly.
Especially those female players.
Wearing the ancient fashions that had just been put on the shelves in the mall, they ran to the front of each building and took photos frantically, forming .
"It's worth it, this trip is worth it!"
"It turns out that Honghuang still understands us!"
The male compatriots' eyes sparkled as they looked at the white legs that were being fashioned and exclaimed that it was so exciting.
Didn't they come all the way from the sect just for this?
"Alright, all disciples are free to move around. Gather at the central martial arts arena in an hour!"
Li Qinfeng shouted and left the team, hurrying towards the distance.
Originally the players thought he had something important to do, but when they looked closely, they saw that in the distance was a team led by the Saintess of the Tianshan Sect.
"Fuck! Brother-in-law, you're a sister-con!"
"He actually abandoned the sect team and went to pick up girls!"
“How shameless!”
Everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud, seriously suspecting that this was the bad taste of the Honghuang designer.
Someone has done the quest line of Brother-in-law before.
I learned that my eldest brother-in-law's sister had the sword energy from the battle between her enemies invaded her body during the fire when she was a child. She had to go to the Snow Lotus Holy Land of the Tianshan Sect to extend her life, and use the core skills of the Wanjian Sect to extract the sword energy in order to survive.
This quest line is exactly the CG they saw at the Honghuang Carnival, which can be said to be very touching.
But when players apply the plot to the brother-in-law, they don’t feel any tragedy at all, which is very strange.
Seeing their leader running away, they did not stay there and wandered around the Demon-Suppressing City.
After all, this is a city that appeared in the CG and was besieged by a tide of beasts. Maybe after the game is over, the siege gameplay will be forced to trigger, and then you can make a lot of money from demon pills.
that's all.
The crowd quickly dispersed.
After a while, it disappeared in the busy street.
…
Two hours later.
With the sound of a loud bell, the sect competition finally officially began.
The restricted airspace in the city was temporarily lifted, and countless players gathered in the central training ground. Even the sky was filled with dense human figures, creating a scene of huge crowds of people.
“It’s started, it’s started!”
"There are so many people! Fortunately, I came early."
"I don't know which sect will win the championship. I'm looking forward to it."
"I didn't even bother to level up, I just came here to watch the game."
"It is said that the first prize is a foundation-building pill, which can increase one level of cultivation."
“I’m so awesome?”
The whole field was filled with constant noise, and everyone inside was on high alert .
Representatives from various sects were waiting there early and were drawing lots for the order, and the referee on the stage was also reading out the rules.
The rules of the competition are simple.
It is the most common 1V1 elimination system.
After layers of screening, the one left is the champion.
Therefore, many contestants secretly prayed that they would not be drawn against too strong opponents, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to be eliminated in the first game.
But no matter how unwilling they are.
The draw was over very quickly and everyone got their own number plate.
"Okay! Now please invite number one and number two to come on stage!"
After all, it's a game. There aren't those long-winded sect clashes and various provocative segments.
Following the host's shout, the two players slowly walked to the stage amid the audience's cheers.
They were actually from the Beast King Sect and the Ice Soul Sect!
"Oh wow, two people at the second level of foundation building right away?"
"Come on, brother! Beat up his pet!"
"Go ahead! Freeze the scum of the Beast King Sect into ice sculptures!"
"The Beast King Sect is invincible!"
"Little Bingpo Sect, wait for your death!"
As soon as the two came on stage, the players from the Beast King Sect and the Ice Soul Sect at the two ends of the field went crazy and started cheering them on from across the training ground.
The two men, who were originally a little timid, suddenly became confident when they saw so many fellow disciples supporting them, and looked at each other provocatively.
Yes.
They now represent the face of all players from the same sect and cannot lose.
"Come on, let me see the Beast King Sect's high skills!"
The Bingpo Sect player with the ID: Snow Mountain Flying Fox took a very showy posture to meet the enemy and said provocatively.
"Yoho? Don't you know that the Beast Taming Sect's skills in the Foundation Establishment period can contract two beast pets?"
The opponent raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a strange smile.
Three against one.
The advantage is mine.
"Very good, both sides are very imposing."
"Now I declare that the competition begins!"
The referee shouted and disappeared from the field in an instant.
