Volume 3: Taking Roots 2016 Chapter 502 Players' Fun
Whether it was guiding Zhou Xing'er to embark on a career path in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, or relying on her straightforward and frank character to thrive on the live streaming platform after retirement...
For Zhou Dongsheng, this was Zhou Xing'er's future as it was already planned, and he was just going with the flow.
Even in the eyes of others, Zhou Dongsheng is "discerning" and has the ability to turn stone into gold. The anchors trained by him will soon stand out in the anchor industry...
Xiaorenwu Media is undoubtedly the best proof. From a startup company with nothing, it has now transformed itself into a leading anchor media company in the live broadcast industry.
The value of the two top anchors, Curly Baboon and PDD, alone is the ceiling in the current live broadcast field. Even the slightly inferior Xiao Sima and Bao Xiang are the pillars of the Longzhu and Zhanqi platforms...
In the eyes of the outside world, it is obvious that all of this was created by Zhou Dongsheng. Without Zhou Dongsheng, these talented people would not have stood out...
Of course, Zhou Dongsheng knows his own business and is very clear about his own capabilities. Strictly speaking, he is just a pure speculator.
It’s just that this ability is unique in the world and there is no other like it.
But if you do this too often, Zhou Dongsheng won't feel any sense of accomplishment. It's just something you can do with your hands.
However, after realizing the "koi attribute" that suddenly appeared in Zhou Xing'er, Zhou Dongsheng's mind suddenly became active.
Zhou Dongsheng didn’t know whether this could be considered as the butterfly effect, but if he could make Zhou Xing’er into a koi with his own hands, it would undoubtedly be a more fulfilling thing.
In other words, it will be more fun for Zhou Dongsheng. After all, when people do things that follow the rules for too long, they always want to make breakthroughs.
It’s like after you’ve completed a game, you’ll find ways to develop more routes and ways to play.
In this regard, Zhou Dongsheng has the mentality of a veteran player, just like Zhou Dongsheng has played Red Alert over and over again eight hundred times.
At the beginning, I could only fend off seven ruthless computer players by blowing up bridges and growing slowly, then I turned around and kept them in captivity, enjoying the fun of torturing the computer, and then I frantically accumulated troops and played a violent army flow...
Now, Zhou Dongsheng wants to change the way he plays and use the resources in his hands reasonably. Can he really create a brand new Koi persona and give Mo Zi a new possibility...
Just do it when you think of it. It's just for fun anyway. You won't lose anything no matter what. You may even get some unexpected surprises.
But before that, what you say is like water spilled on the ground, and you still have to do what you say.
So, Zhou Dongsheng found an excuse to quit the game, leaving Zhou Xing'er alone to enjoy her happy troubles. Looking at the skyrocketing popularity and the surging barrage of comments in the live broadcast room, Zhou Xing'er felt a little dizzy.
Then he could only pretend to be calm and put on the golden 98K skin, then said happily: "Since the brothers all want to see it, let's try it in the game..."
After saying that, he started the game alone. The sudden influx of traffic was like rootless duckweed, coming and going quickly.
In this regard, Zhou Xing'er can only fully demonstrate her chicken-eating skills, hoping that the audience will be impressed by her skills as a technical anchor and convert them into her fans.
As a professional player, Zhou Xing'er has full confidence in her skills!
After leaving the live broadcast room, Zhou Dongsheng took his personal translator Li Jiana and ran to the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds company next door to find Brandon Green , and told him that he was going to disclose the probability of unboxing.
Even though Brandon Green respected Zhou Dongsheng very much, he still disagreed with this. "Oh my boss, our game is free, but we rely entirely on the box opening system to make a profit..."
"If the unboxing probability is fully disclosed, wouldn't it mean that many potential consumers will be discouraged and excluded?"
"We are currently experiencing a period of rising profits. If we do this, it will only increase the risk. If the boss insists on doing this, we can wait for a while..."
Brandon Green expressed his meaning in a somewhat euphemistic way, but the implication was that he thought Zhou Dongsheng was "an outsider guiding an expert."
Zhou Dongsheng smiled and patted Brandon Green on the shoulder. "Hey, my old friend, don't forget that besides being the boss, I am also a senior player..."
"For the vast majority of players, what they want is actually very simple, that is sincerity, nothing more, but it is obvious that the development of countless game companies is just to rack their brains to empty the pockets of players."
"I think we are obviously not going to make such a clichéd money-making game. From the beginning when we established the original intention of making a free game, I have high hopes for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds as if it were my own child..."
Zhou Dongsheng said earnestly.
The truth is that as the boss of the company, Zhou Dongsheng is the biggest beneficiary of the game, no doubt about it. Just for this reason, Zhou Dongsheng has no reason to let the game "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" be ruined.
But in Brandon Green's view, Zhou Dongsheng is not only a veteran player, but also a veteran idealist.
An overly idealistic idea may have good intentions, but it may not necessarily achieve the desired effect, and may even backfire...
Zhou Dongsheng could understand Brandon Green's concerns, but...the announcement of the probability of unboxing might seem a little unbelievable at the moment.
But it is the inevitable result of the historical development trend, especially in the small and medium-sized domestic game field. In the future, whether it is the winter of game licenses, the probability of open disclosure, and the protection of minors, etc.
Zhou Dongsheng, who has experienced it personally, feels deeply touched. Although he, as a butterfly, has worked hard enough, it is probably still a drop in the bucket if he wants to influence the formulation of these major policies.
In this case, instead of being forced to make corrections passively and unwillingly, it is better to turn passivity into initiative...
"I believe that when we express enough sincerity to impress the players, the players will also give us enough rewards. There is an old Chinese saying: If you treat others with sincerity, others will repay you with sincerity..."
"Of course, we can also use this as a marketing tool to promote the announcement. Today, a host from our neighboring company has successfully opened a golden 98K key, which was a free key. The first box he opened was a winner..."
"I plan to take this opportunity to make him the Koi spokesperson for our PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. After all, luck is also a part of strength in our game..."
"In the future, she may become one of the first professional players in our e-sports events..."
Zhou Dongsheng described the blueprint for the future in vivid detail, and Brandon Green couldn't help but sigh inwardly that his boss was indeed a pure idealist.
But it must be said that this blueprint for the future is indeed exciting. If the ultimate goal can be achieved, it seems that making a small sacrifice in the early stage is not unacceptable ...
As for the ultimate goal, it has never changed from the beginning to the end , which is to be on par with "League of Legends".
