Chapter 41: A Revolution in the Super Dream Industry 2
"This Mewtwo is really different. It's completely different from the Mewtwo I played before!"
"If I hadn't prepared myself mentally in advance, I really wouldn't have been able to handle this difficulty at the beginning. But after I persevered, I felt it was pretty good and acceptable. Even after defeating a powerful enemy, I felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction, which was even more obvious than other Mewtwo that piled up big scenes!"
"The background story is really novel. Although there is not much plot, many characters, including the one who persuades people to quit, leave a deep impression on people. After all, they have killed me dozens of times."
"Compare it with Under the Blade, which looks like it has everything, but actually has nothing; while Embers of Demise looks like it has nothing, but actually has everything!"
"Yes, Under the Blade spent so much money and piled up so many big scenes, but is it really exciting? It's just so-so. On the contrary, the beginning of Outfall was so depressing, but the emotions soared in the end. Even after quitting Mewtwo, this feeling can continue. This is the real excitement!"
"The Long Night Entertainment Group has been living off its past success for a long time. What I find most regrettable is that Corey has disregarded his reputation and worked for the Long Night Entertainment Group to create such an unpromising Mewtwo."
"The name of Long Night Entertainment Group originally meant that players could happily spend the long night with Mewtwo, but now I feel that it is becoming more and more like the long night of the entire Mewtwo industry itself..."
"Lishan Technology is a rising star. It is the most eye-catching super dream research and development company in recent times! I just found out that they are also the one who made "Walking in the Garden"."
“I originally thought that the unexpected popularity of “Walking in the Garden” was their peak. After all, for a startup like this, it is not easy to make a small-scale Mewtwo hit. I didn’t expect it to bring even bigger surprises!”
"The online version of Mewtwo is already so awesome, what would the physical version of Mewtwo be like? Can anyone get a physical version of Mewtwo from the Death Edition of "Embers Are Out"? I'll pay a high price for it!"
As the comments scrolled by, everyone in the conference room could clearly see the changes in online public opinion on "Embers of Demise".
In fact, at the beginning, many players didn’t believe it.
Because Li Yunhan's words were too mysterious. Not only did he boast that "Embers of Demise" overturned the techniques of Mewtwo's design, he also boasted that it overturned the principles of Mewtwo's design, and that it was even better than the special training Mewtwo...
This is obviously completely inconsistent with everyone's perception.
But Li Yunhan is a gold medal producer and is very well-known on the Internet. He can't just talk nonsense, right?
Therefore, many people still believed it and entered "The Embers Are Going Out" to experience it, wanting to see if what Li Yunhan said was true.
With Li Yunhan's Mewtwo as a foreshadowing, players' attitudes after entering "Embers of Demise" completely changed.
Because they have prepared themselves mentally in advance, they know that this Mewtwo is very bitter and difficult, but as long as they persist, they can see the whole picture of this world and gain the ultimate sense of refreshment and happiness. Of course, they must persist as much as possible.
This just happens to solve the problem of serious discouragement in the early stages of "Embers of Demise"!
Therefore, as more and more people really delve into this Mewtwo, they follow Li Yunhan's introduction and carefully savor the details of this Mewtwo.
It was only after tasting it that I realized that it was indeed fundamentally different from the slutty bitch in "Under the Blade"! It was also completely different from the Mewtwo currently on the market!
New and novel things always create great topics.
The Internet in this world is very developed, and the Super Dream Industry, as the top of the entertainment industry, is naturally very popular.
Therefore, within just a few hours, the Mewtwo game "Embers of Demise" went from an unpopular flop to the most popular new trend representative work!
Even many Mewtwo producers have already started.
They were shocked by the new concept of "Embers Are Going Out". Although it is still uncertain whether this concept will really become a future trend in Mewtwo design, the producers will definitely start researching and learning it immediately, for fear of falling behind.
The situation on the battlefield seemed to have reversed in an instant.
Cole found that he was commanding the army to victory at the beginning, but the next second, war broke out and the army was surrounded by enemies!
What’s more, the one who defeated him was a company he had never heard of and a producer he had never heard of. How could he accept this?
Of course, Li Yunhan also played a role in fueling the situation, because Li Yunhan didn't like "Under the Blade" in the first place and didn't agree with the approach of the senior management of Changye Entertainment Group. He hoped that "Under the Blade" would die completely, so as to prove the correctness of his own Mewtwo design concept.
But Li Yunhan's role is only a catalyst and does not play a decisive role.
No matter how much Li Yunhan brags, if players find that it is not what they expected after playing "Embers Are Going Out", the game will never be that popular.
But now, not only has the heat risen, but it has also swept in at an incredible speed. This is enough to show that what Li Yunhan said is indeed true, and it has indeed aroused the recognition of most Mewtwo players and viewers!
Corey watched the popularity of "The Embers Are Going Out" grow, but he was completely powerless to do anything.
Because in front of such an epoch-making Mewtwo, any struggle is meaningless.
Just then, Corey's bracelet rang. It was the senior management of Changye Entertainment Group asking him to go over.
Corey supported himself on the conference table with both hands and lowered his head.
He knew very well that the failure of "Under the Blade" was unacceptable to Changye Entertainment Group, and he was likely to be the scapegoat.
But this is not the most critical thing.
Because when Corey chose this path, he was ready to take risks. He might succeed and become a tool promoted by the Changye Entertainment Group, gaining both fame and fortune, but he might also fail miserably.
He is relatively open-minded about these things. After all, most gold medal producers have their ups and downs. What's important is not to be at the top all your life, but to find a way to get up after falling down.
What he was worried about was that a new era of Mewtwo was about to come.
People like me who are unable to keep up with the new era will be ruthlessly crushed by the wheel of history!
…
…
"It's changed, the curve has changed again!"
In Lishan Technology's Super Dream Experience Store, many people were staring at the estimated data curve chart of "Embers Will Die" on the big screen, and their expressions were all very focused.
Every time there is a slight fluctuation or change in the graph, it triggers a burst of exclamations.
Chen She sat on the sofa, continuing to carve with a gloomy face, while complaining in his heart: "Is this group of people mentally ill? The money earned by Mewtwo is not shared with you, why are you so excited?"
“So annoying!”
The more Chen She thought about it, the angrier he became, and the faster he carved.
Ever since Li Yunhan’s analysis of Mewtwo came out, "Embers of Destruction" suddenly became popular!
This terrifying speed of data change shocked everyone. Lin Luxi, Zhang Sirui, Zhao Zhen, Zhou Lei and others unanimously decided to put the data change curve of "Embers Will Go Out" on the big screen at the headquarters and on the big screen at the experience store so that everyone can share this joy!
So this strange sight appeared.
The experience store is already packed, and the people in the queue have nothing to do but stare at the curve changes of "Embers Are Out", and then shout every now and then: Awesome!
The current curve changes of "The Embers Are Going Out" are far from the norm.
When the Coward Edition and the Death Edition were first released, its curve had already shrunk a bit. But now, with the full explosion of enthusiasm, the influx of new players every day is growing exponentially, so that there is no reference model for the data changes of "Embers of Demise".
This causes the system's estimated data curve to become a weird exponential function. Not only is it impossible to estimate the peak data and total sales of this Mewtwo throughout its life cycle, even the values on the vertical axis are constantly changing!
The only limitation at present is the production capacity and transportation capacity of the physical version of Mewtwo.
After the online version of "The Last Embers" became a hit, demand for its physical version also surged.
Fortunately, Chen She had previously requested a large stock of physical versions, which was able to barely withstand the first wave of demand.
There will definitely be a gap in demand later, and the Chen Group's foundry is working hard to buy up all the space-time particles that can be purchased, so as to ensure the supply of the physical version of Mewtwo as much as possible.
Seeing that everyone was busy, Chen She became more relaxed.
Because he really had nothing to do.
For other people, it is normal and reasonable for Mr. Chen to have no time to spare.
After all, Mr. Chen really made a super hit, and it is a super dream with such excellent training effect. The most difficult part has been completed, so what's wrong with taking a rest?
Just leave the rest of the trivial matters to your subordinates!
Mr. Chen just needs to sit on the sofa and carve the statue leisurely.
But only Chen She himself knew that he was actually very upset and wanted to do something.
There is no danger at this time, because the rebels are all making money like crazy, and they are only thinking about producing more physical versions of Mewtwo as soon as possible. With such an urgent goal pushing them, they should not think about rebellion in the short term.
But this is not a long-term solution!
With such a large sum of money coming in, the pockets of the rebels suddenly became fatter. They can now afford weapons and equipment that they could not afford before, and they can now buy more weapons and equipment that they could afford before. How can this be tolerated?
With only a small amount of money in the account, these people dared to make a plan to attack the branch of Fujido Group.
With so much money, wouldn't he just go straight to the headquarters of the Icefield Defense Group?
Chen She had no doubt that this was something the rebels could do.
So Chen She now has new spending plans every day, and then he overturns and redoes them every day.
Because his speed in making plans could not keep up with the growth rate of "Embers Are Going Out"...
The more I thought about it, the angrier I got, and I could only take it out on the statue.
At this moment, Chen She suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.
He looked up and saw a man peeking out from behind the crowd at the door of the experience store.
It’s the homeless man from before, Xia Lirong!
The reason why Chen She recognized him at a glance was that Xia Lirong was still emitting a light golden light, which made him quite conspicuous among the customers in the experience store.
Chen She was stunned for a moment and put down the sculpture in his hand.
At this time, Xia Lirong was no longer dressed like a homeless man, but was wearing regular clothes. He looked clean and neat, like a normal person.
"Could it be that he was not captured by the Knights of Time and Space, but really stood me up? That's not right. If that's the case, why would he come back?"
No matter what, Chen She was still very happy, at least Xia Lirong was not in danger of life.
However, just as he was about to go to greet him, he was stopped by Zhang Sirui.
As long as Chen She was in the experience store, Zhang Sirui would protect him closely and naturally be highly alert to everything happening around him.
Chen She was stunned for a moment: "Is there something wrong with him?"
Zhang Sirui shook his head slightly: "He should be fine, but I always feel a sense of crisis of being watched. I feel... he might be a bait."
"But I can't locate the other party, so I can't rule out the possibility that someone from the Spacetime Knights is following us."
After thinking for a moment, Chen She said, "Let Zhou Lei invite him in to experience the space-time activity inhibitor in the store, which is relatively safe."
He looked inside the experience store with some worry. Although the experience store itself was impregnable and the security measures exceeded the standard, and there were masters like Zhang Sirui around, there wouldn't be much danger, but after all, there were still so many innocent civilians.
The Time and Space Knights are a group of lunatics, and no one can guarantee what they will do.
Chen She's brain worked quickly and he sorted out the entire incident.
Now it seems that Xia Lirong was most likely really captured by the Knights of Time and Space, but it is indeed unreasonable to release him at this time.
Maybe the Space-Time Knights discovered that someone was tracking them, so they turned their attention to this side? And used Xia Lirong as bait to kill me?
But this is not reasonable either.
Since Xia Lirong's disappearance seemed to be an accident, how did these people from the Space-Time Knights determine that the person who was investigating them was related to Xia Lirong?
They kidnap new homeless people every day, so how can they accurately locate that there is something wrong with Xia Lirong?
Unless someone can predict the future.
Chen She sat back on the sofa and continued carving.
The main reason is that he is a little panicked now, and carving can make him feel more at ease.
There's no point in standing. He's just an ordinary person. If something really happens, he can't run away. He can only sit still and believe in Zhang Sirui and the security measures of the experience store that he spent a lot of money on.
At the same time, all the staff in the experience store were on high alert as if they were facing a great enemy.
Although it is not obvious on the surface, they have all entered combat mode.
After Xia Lirong entered the experience store, he immediately came to Chen She excitedly: "Boss Chen! I'm really sorry, it's not that I wanted to break the appointment, it's me... I was kidnapped..."
Chen She couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart. It seemed that everything was just as he had guessed.
But the question is…since he’s been kidnapped, why should he be released unharmed?
Chen She asked: "Do you still remember who tied you up?"
Xia Lirong shook his head: "I... I can't remember clearly. I felt confused these days. When I woke up today, I was on the street, and then I came all the way here..."
Chen She nodded slightly: "Well, what I said before still counts. I'll give you a job."
"However, your position is not ready yet. Help out in the experience store for a few days first, and then we will arrange something for you."
Xia Lirong nodded quickly: "Okay, it's up to you!"
He obviously didn't care. As long as he had a job, it didn't matter what he did.
Chen She looked at Zhang Sirui, and Zhang Sirui shook his head slightly, as if to say that Xia Lirong was not a threat.
In fact, Chen She originally planned to arrange Xia Lirong and Zeng Hailong to work in the new OEM factory.
After all, OEM factories are not all workers, they also need some clerical staff. Xia Lirong has worked in Fujitang Group before and seems to be reliable, so he should be able to do the job.
But the problem is that he is now unidentified.
Although there seems to be no problem on the surface, what if the Time and Space Knights set a trap for him during the time he was captured?
Therefore, it is better to put it in an experience store for observation first, so that any problems can be solved in time.
Xia Lirong was very happy and immediately began to familiarize himself with the work under the guidance of a store clerk.
The other shop assistants also breathed a sigh of relief and continued to serve customers.
After all, the experience store business is so booming that we can’t neglect our customers.
But Zhang Sirui remained highly alert. He looked around but could not locate the source of this sense of crisis.
Finally, his tense nerves relaxed a little, and it seemed that the sense of crisis of being watched gradually faded away.
At this time, Chen She was concentrating on carving the statue on his hand and said, "Since you two are here, why don't you sit down and chat before leaving? Don't say that I am not hospitality enough."
Zhang Sirui was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding why Chen She asked that.
Because he had no idea where this nervousness of being watched came from, not to mention that this nervousness had gradually disappeared.
Then he realized, could it be that this was a trick? Was he deliberately using this method to test whether there were any enemies sneaking in?
It is a good idea, but it may not be of any use, because the other party may not have come to the experience store, but may be observing somewhere outside using some special means.
What's more, the other party is not stupid, so how could he expose himself after being tested?
However, just as Zhang Sirui was about to relax his vigilance, he saw two customers who had just walked to the door of the experience store and were about to leave slowly turn around!
He was a little shocked and had no idea how Chen She could see that.
Chen She concentrated on carving and sighed silently.
Can't you see this?
These two are like two blue light bulbs. It's impossible for me not to notice them...
