Chapter 85 Movie Release
After a live broadcast.
The popularity of Lao E’s live broadcast room has completely exploded.
It soared from over one million to over three million.
The audience, both male and female, were posting comments and discussing, reminiscing about what had just happened in the game.
Especially the scene where the Titanic sinks to the bottom of the sea at the end can only be described as shocking.
Even through the screen, they could feel the despair and suffocation of the passengers on the ship when facing death.
It was like being strangled by an invisible hand and being dragged into the sea, making them realize the insignificance of life.
They couldn't even imagine it.
If you encounter such a thing, what will be the result?
I'm afraid it's not much better than the old E in the game.
"It's too depressing. It's really too depressing."
“I never thought a VR game could achieve this.”
“It’s more of an epic disaster movie than a game.”
“The puzzles are also very well done. You can fully experience the sense of urgency of approaching death, and each puzzle is closely linked.”
"What bothers me most is the final decision."
"Yeah, it's so realistic, I don't know how to choose."
At this moment, they no longer had the joking and fun they had at the beginning, but were replaced by extremely complicated and heavy feelings.
I thought it was just an ordinary sticker game.
But who could have imagined that there would be such a huge story hidden behind this?
everything.
It all starts with that first boat ticket.
If it weren't for that boat ticket, perhaps none of this would have happened?
The audience couldn't help but think in their hearts.
After coming to their senses, some people began to place orders to purchase VR, preparing to experience the game themselves and discover more of the plot.
Although there are not many of these people.
But it also allowed Chen Lin and his team's VR sales to slowly increase.
…
The other side.
In Ouyang Xiao’s live broadcast room.
Ouyang Xiao, wearing a VR device, was also experiencing the final plot of the game at this time.
However, unlike Old E, she did not escape from the cabin. Instead, she was trapped in the room while trying to save her two children and missed the best time to escape.
Watching the surging sea water submerge him and wash away the two children, Ouyang Xiao was stunned, staring blankly at the gradually darkening scene.
"How could this happen... How could it sink so quickly... I haven't rescued them yet..."
Her words were filled with regret and self-blame.
This was not the first time she had come to rescue the two children.
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get them out before the ship sank, and could only watch them die in front of her again and again.
There is no good ending.
This game has no happy ending!
From the moment she boarded the cruise ship, the tragedy was doomed, making her feel deeply powerless.
"Don't be sad, you've done well enough."
"Yeah, that's the plot setting."
"Even the side quests are so well done. I am really impressed by this game."
"It's a pity that I'm 3D-sick and have a fear of the deep sea, so I don't dare play this game myself. It would be great if it could be made into a movie."
"I agree. I will definitely buy a ticket to watch the movie as soon as it is released!"
Even now, the audience is still very curious about what the entire plot of this game is like.
After all, the host alone cannot explore the entire plot of the cruise ship.
They still remember very clearly that Honghuang once said that this was a puzzle game with love as its theme.
But after playing it several times, I still couldn't discover the hidden love storyline, either because I didn't have enough time or I just missed it.
"In that case, let's change direction and look for clues related to the plot. This will help us find the character I'm playing."
Ouyang Xiao also knew that this was not a solution.
She must explore the plot beyond the second class cabin, otherwise she will not be able to complete the promotion task assigned to her by the company.
She didn't want Honghuang to think that she had no business ability .
After thinking about it, I reopened the game and explored other places on the Titanic.
…
All night long.
The promotion went very smoothly.
With the promotion of anchors from major platforms, the name "Titanic" finally spread gradually in the gaming circle, and a large number of strategy videos began to appear on the Internet.
When netizens who came here to watch the game clicked on the video and saw the grand scenes and the tragic plot, they were all attracted to the game.
"What an awesome production, is this really a VR game?"
“This level has definitely reached the movie level!”
"The ending made me kneel down. The immersive feeling from the first-person perspective is simply amazing."
"You can totally feel the despair of the passengers on the ship."
"I watched it in the live broadcast room. The host was vomiting and playing at the same time, and tears were flowing. I was stunned at the time."
"Where can I buy this game? I'm just about to get a VR headset."
Under each video, there are a lot of comments emerging every moment.
Especially the promotional trial videos of those anchors, the number of views has skyrocketed, further expanding the influence of this game.
Many people were amazed at the production of this game and its plot content, and they were discussing it in the comment section.
The momentum is so rapid.
Even Honghuang’s employees didn’t expect this.
…
"How's it going? Are the first day's sales figures out?"
In the Dawn team, Chen Lin found Old Song who was busy.
"It's out now, and it's pretty good, much better than we expected at the beginning."
Old Song took out a form from the side and handed it over.
Chen Lin took it and looked at it. The sales volume on the first day just exceeded 3,000 copies, which was much more than the 1,000 they expected.
certainly.
This is just better than expected, it doesn't mean the result is good.
You have to know that they have invested a lot in this game, almost spending all the remaining funds during this period.
Not to mention making a profit with sales of 3,000 copies, the cost of live broadcast promotion and equipment alone is not enough.
Even if it increases slowly later, it will not be able to keep up with the capital recovery cycle and will not play a big role in the short term.
"The player base in the VR market is still too small. No wonder no one is willing to make large-scale VR games," Chen Lin lamented.
"The main reason is that they have to purchase additional equipment, plus there are venue restrictions, which are too limiting. Many players are unwilling to buy this kind of thing specifically for a game." Lao Song analyzed seriously.
This was something they had anticipated long ago.
Unless their VR can come with a large number of games, players will be more willing to spend money to buy it.
The appeal of just one game is too limited.
It’s not a question of whether VR glasses are worth the money.
It’s a question of psychological expectations.
"Forget it. We are not targeting the VR market anyway. It is already pretty good to achieve such sales. The next step is the main course. Are you guys ready?"
"It's been prepared for a long time." Old Song nodded.
"Okay, let's prepare to issue the announcement." After Chen Lin finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the office.
And then not long after.
A new announcement appeared under the Honghuang account.
