I! game designer! Crying players all over the world!

Time flies.

February 2002.

The New Year is just around the corner.

Huaguo players feel very happy.

Not only is the domestic quasi-3A masterpiece "Wukong" officially released.

And there are invincible games like "Genshin", which have swept the global mobile game market!

Now, "Genshin" has ranked first on various mobile game platforms.

The monthly turnover has soared to nearly 2 billion!

Lin Mo doesn't have to worry about the cash flow of Yanhuang Game.

He can do whatever project he wants now!

He doesn't have to worry about money.

At the same time, the global popularity of "Genshin" has also made people in the industry see the horror of Yanhuang games!

The joint blockade of the three is self-defeating.

However, Lin Mo was not in too much of a hurry and formulated a large number of projects.

Because he's going to take it one step at a time.

So far, there are a lot of various projects in the Yanhuang game.

In 2002, the rest of the game was full on the development of War of the Gods and Black Myth.

And for the employees within the Yanhuang Game Group.

They were even more shocked.

Even Shu Xingzhi didn't expect that Lin Mo would do such a big thing without saying a word!

The world's first mobile game was born

like this? Many people felt like they were in a dream.

In particular, Duan Lan, Minister of Finance.

"Is it so easy to make money?" Duan

Lan has detailed data on the income of "Yuan Shen" here.

So she is the person in the whole company who knows the horrors of "Genshin".

But Duan Lan couldn't figure it out.

Although she also knows that the gaming industry is the most valuable field of all industries in the world.

But the speed of making money is faster than the money printing machine, this is too outrageous, right?

Duan Lan still remembered that Lin Mo asked her to buy Cai Mi's studio before, and she strongly objected.

Now it seems that he was too naïve.

"Thankfully, the boss didn't listen to me at the time.

Duan Lan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

But soon, a smile appeared on her face again.

Because through this incident, she discovered that the potential of Yanhuang Game Group is huge!

Although it is still not as large as those giants in the game industry in China.

For example, large manufacturers such as goose factories and pig farms.

However, in terms of potential, Yanhuang Game Group is truly invincible!

As long as the future does not deviate, it will develop well.

Then Yanhuang Game Group will definitely be able to dominate the Chinese game market!

Duan Lan also thought of this step.

She didn't dare to think anything more exaggerated.

Because of the world-class game manufacturers, there is a complete set of ecology behind each one.

And it is also backed by a large amount of capital.

It's not something that a single game company can compete with.

Therefore, in Duan Lan's imagination, it would be very rebellious for Yanhuang Game Group to dominate the Chinese game market!

After all, pig farms and goose factories would not sit still.

With so many years of accumulation, they have made much more money than Yanhuang Game Group.

"Keep up the hard work!" Duan

Lan felt as if he was full of energy.

Originally, after she returned to China, she felt that she should not have any chance to go further.

But Yanhuang Game Group and Lin Mo let her see the opportunity.

Therefore, Duan Lan played a twelve-point spirit.

But at this moment.

A message from Lin Mo called her to the office.

"Sister Duan, take a look at this project plan, and the cost will be summarized. "

This is ......"

Duan Lan took a very private plan handed to her by Lin Mo.

After Duan Lan glanced at it slightly, he quickly recognized it.

Isn't this a large-scale stadium construction project plan?

Duan Lan was stunned for a moment.

Because this kind of planning is generally used in the engineering real estate industry.

What does your own boss mean by this

? Could it be that he wants to enter the real estate industry?

Lin Mo glanced up at Duan Lan and found the confusion in her eyes.

Lin Mo explained with a smile: "This is an e-sports stadium under construction, and it is also a very important project for our company this year. "

E-sports venues?"

Duan Lan has no concept of this at all.

However, in foreign countries, there is actually a corresponding concept.

However, it is generally rented directly from the venue to hold e-sports competitions.

And the current e-sports competitions are very unpopular.

Whether it is selling tickets or online live broadcasts, the number of viewers is very small.

It's not even as good as some big streamers.

And Lin Mo's action is outrageous.

I actually planned to build an e-sports stadium by myself.

And according to the description in the plan, the cost of this e-sports venue is at least 2 billion!

Good guy, all the monthly turnover of "Yuanshen" has been invested.

Of course, the money for the construction of e-sports venues is certainly not two billion at a time.

But even so, Duan Lan still felt that it was not worth it.

Because there must be e-sports competitions to make full use of such a thing.

This is a matter of course.

Looking at the current game market

, how can there be e-sports competitions all year round? In this case, how can the e-sports stadium be used in their spare time?

And there is also the cost of maintenance.

After all, esports venues can't be used as sports venues.

There is a very clear difference between the two.

These are all things that Duan Lan saw from the plan book.

"Boss, this is too much of a waste of money, isn't it

?" "If we build such an e-sports venue, how long will it take for us to recoup the cost

?" "And our company doesn't have any games to hold e-sports competitions now, right?"

Duan Lan frowned and objected.

It's not that she doesn't believe Lin Mo.

Instead, it costs two billion to build a large e-sports stadium, which is really a bit ......

"Don't worry, who said we don't have games that can hold e-sports competitions?" Lin Mo smiled slightly, "Isn't Naraka: Bladepoint just a game that can be used to hold e-sports competitions?"

Hearing this, Duan Lan was stunned for a moment.

Indeed, this game seems to be really good.

But just one isn't enough, right?

Duan Lan still wanted to refute.

At this moment, Lin Mo continued: "Don't you believe me?"

Lin Mo said this.

When Duan Lan heard this, he immediately reacted.

Indeed, the current "Yuan Shen" has proved Lin Mo's foresight.

Then the construction of e-sports venues does not seem to be an outrageous thing.

It may be that Lin Mo has other plans.

Thinking of this, Duan Lan nodded lightly and said, "Okay, boss, I know, I will do a good job in cost accounting!" "

Well, that's good."

Lin Mo nodded.

With Duan Lan here, he doesn't have to worry that others will be pitted when he builds the venue.

The construction of this e-sports stadium is very important to him.

Because Lin Mo had planned it a long time ago.

As for the layout of the e-sports field, he wants to directly take action and occupy the most advantageous part!

He does not need to give other game manufacturers and capital any opportunities.

As soon as you attack, you must be invincible!

Of course, I haven't seen the big cake of e-sports yet.

As long as Lin Mo laid out it in advance.

Then this big cake is all in front of Lin Mo's table.

When the time comes, whoever he wants to share the cake with will get a little.

If he doesn't want anyone else to interfere.

Others simply can't get along!"

"War of the Gods is progressing very well right now.

"It is estimated that by 2003, the first wave of internal testing will be officially launched.

"Black Myth should be completed by the end of the year.

Lin Mo was thinking about the plan in his heart.

But just when he thought of "Black Myth", he suddenly remembered the quasi-triple-A game "Wukong".

"Judging from the current data, "Wukong" may really be able to get 3A.

Lin Mo remembered his data survey of "Wukong" yesterday.

The game "Wukong", which is now selling more than 20 million copies worldwide.

Top 3 annual sales volume, more than 30 hours of main process, and evaluation by the Global Game Council.

A true triple-A game, all three are indispensable.

And the main process of "Wukong" must be more than thirty hours, but the plot content is a little less.

In terms of sales, 20 million has been able to rank among the top three in 2002.

Although 2002 has only just begun, based on the experience of previous years, the top three are no problem.

After all, the price of "Wukong" is 299, and even the 40 million sales of "The Great Witch" can't be compared.

Sales are not determined purely based on how many copies are sold.

Rather, it is a comprehensive evaluation through the various data of the game.

It's like last year's Game of the Year, Overlord, with 35 million sales worldwide.

This is the undisputed triple-A game.

Therefore, from these two points, "Wukong" can be regarded as a quasi-triple-A game.

But if you want to be rated as a true triple-A game, the most important thing is actually the Global Game Council.

It is a fully public governing organization for the gaming industry.

Every country has its own people, working on the Global Gaming Council.

Moreover, the evaluation of triple-A games is evaluated by various game design masters.

Don't think that if the game design master evaluates the triple, there will be some conspiracy, or deliberately vote against it.

You know, players aren't blind.

Whether a game can meet the 3A standard, in fact, the public has a standard in their hearts.

If there is someone, deliberately smear.

Then his reputation will be completely stinky.

No game designer wants to dye himself black.

And deliberately giving a game that is not up to standard, rated as 3A, that is also unlikely.

It's the same thing.

Therefore, if "Wukong" wants to be rated as a real triple-A game, it still needs to pass the global game council.

But ......

"The plot is the weakness of Wukong. Lin

Mo knows this very well.

These game design masters, either look at the style or the plot.

It's clear that Wukong's style is not unique.

So you can only watch the plot.

But in terms of plot, "Wukong" is obviously a weakness.

This leads to the possibility that "Wukong" can get a triple-A rating, which is greatly reduced.

You must know that the evaluation of triple-A games is very strict every year.

Especially at the beginning of the year.

Because according to the experience of previous years, the Global Gaming Council never evaluates more than three triple-A games every year.

There was even a year when there wasn't a true triple-A game!

enough to see how strict the Global Gaming Council was.

But when it comes to triple-A games, there are more than a dozen games every year.

Therefore, "Wukong" is still very dangerous now.

"Let's hope I'm lucky. Lin

Mo doesn't have any opinions on the game itself.

He just has an opinion about the Tiangong studio.

After all, they drove Shu Xingzhi away.

And the real producer of "Wukong" is actually Shu Xingzhi.

Therefore, Lin Mo wants "Wukong" to achieve a good result.

"Forget it, in a few months, the Global Gaming Council's assessment should be out.

Lin Mo shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.

He himself has a lot of things to do.

In particular, the game "Clash of the Gods" is a huge amount of work!

There was Shu Xingzhi watching over there in "Black Myth", and he was very relieved.

......

......

Yada Studios.

Otto and Auston looked at each other.

"It's kind of outrageous.

Auston couldn't help but complain.

At this moment, in front of the two of them, the computer is displaying the data of "Genshin".

With a monthly turnover of more than 300 million US dollars, it is undisputed that the world's number one mobile game!

Even their Yada studio cannot admit this.

"Damn! why did you let the Yanhuang Game Group run into it!" Otto

scolded.

He used to be a designer focusing on mobile games.

When I first debuted, I also made some very good mobile games.

But in front of the game "Genshin", he was full of powerlessness.

Because he knows that no matter how hard he tries, he will never be able to make a mobile game that can surpass "Genshin".

He's not a fool either.

It is very clear to see the core competitiveness of "Genshin".

In addition to the fresh and comfortable painting style, the plot of "Genshin" directly determines this game, which is difficult to imitate.

"Their luck only shows that they have a good vision.

Alston glanced at his students.

He knew very well that his students were jealous.

I am jealous that Yanhuang Game Group can find such an awesome mobile game.

But business just doesn't make sense.

Others found out, you didn't.

Then you deserve someone else's money.

"Can we dig up this studio?" asked

Otto, somewhat reluctantly.

Auston smiled: "You are a devil, how can you dig it up? And even if you dig it up, the copyright of the game "Yuan Shen" must still be in the hands of Yanhuang Game Group.

"Well, you don't have to think about it.

"Even if this mobile game is now the number one in the world, it doesn't matter.

"In the game industry, it is the PC and console side that really occupy a large number of users.

"We just need to master our fundamentals, and it's okay to make a little less money. "

After some analysis by Alston.

Otto had no choice but to abandon his unrealistic ideas.

But soon, Otto seemed to remember something again, and said, "Teacher, we should be able to make a move."

"Yes, it's pretty much the same now.

Auston nodded.

However, it is obvious that what the two of them are discussing at the moment is definitely not the game "Genshin Impact".

A sinister smile appeared on Otto's face, and he said, "Teacher, those stupid Chinese people would definitely not have imagined that their lifeblood is in our hands. "

Hahaha, who made them not use their brains at all.

A smile welled up on Alston's face.

It can be seen that he is also in a very good mood at the moment.

"Let's start tomorrow, let the water army brew emotions on the Internet first, and then expose all the problems of "Wukong" in one go

!" "Okay, teacher!" A

cold light flashed in Otto's eyes.

He has long seen that these Chinese game designers are not pleasing to the eye.

Previously, Lin Mo forcibly asked him to publicly apologize to the Huaguo game designer, and also released a 5,000-word praise article, which he has always kept in his heart.

Now, at last, there is a chance for revenge

! A country of game deserts is still clamoring at us

! I'm going to let you know

! The triple-A standard is not so easy to achieve

! You Huaguo, you can't produce a triple-A game in your life!

So the next day.

A group of users who don't know where they came from poured into the comment area of "Wukong".

The game "Wukong" was released on the Steam platform.

And now, a large number of bad reviews, appear in this place.

The score of "Wukong" dropped from 9.2 points to 7.8 points in an instant

! It can be called a blood collapse!

What is the situation?

After Xiong Yi learned the news, he immediately panicked.

According to a simple survey, it seems.

Most of these players who give bad reviews are from abroad.

He hurriedly called Alston.

"Mr. Auston, what's going on!"A large number of bad reviews suddenly appeared under the comment area of "Wukong"!Could it be that someone deliberately hacked our game!

""Mr. Xiong Yi, don't worry, we are investigating this matter.

"Can I not be in a hurry!" Xiong Yi said eagerly, "Mr. Auston, you said at the beginning, you are responsible for the publicity and distribution of the overseas market, and now that such a thing has happened

, you must deal with it!" "Don't worry, we will definitely help deal with it, you just wait." Then

, the two spoke a few more words before hanging up.

During the call, Auston repeatedly assured Xiong Yi that he would definitely be able to handle this matter.

It will definitely not affect the triple-A rating of "Wukong".

Xiong Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, it's okay, fortunately, it's a collaboration with Yada Studio. "

They have a lot of experience publishing games.

"Even if there is a small problem, they should be able to solve it well.

Xiong Yi comforted himself like this in his heart.

But he didn't know.

The bad reviews that appeared in the comment area of "Wukong" were actually done by Yada Studio!

But the world is very strict about this kind of malicious smearing.

Especially the gaming industry.

Auston did not make a move, but the vapor platform took the initiative to close a large number of accounts that maliciously swiped comments.

But it doesn't matter, Auston's plan is not to maliciously smear the game "Wukong" at all.

What he really wants to do is just want to attract the attention of other players.

After all, the game "Wukong", with so many bad reviews all of a sudden, will definitely arouse everyone's curiosity.

What the hell is going on here

? Could it be that this game has provoked someone?

Auston secretly threw out the king bomb!
