In Order to Ascend, I Had No Choice but to Play Games

Chapter 143 Your Idea Is Unreliable (One More)

Unlike Fangcheng, who needs to use immortal translation first to understand the true meaning of this report, many people understand how to interpret the news, and many people have already begun to analyze this report and interpret various contents.

Domestic games are out of touch with the mainstream game market due to some previous reasons.

Due to the lack of the process of game consoles, domestic players lack a broad sense of recognition for buyout system stand-alone games. Mobile games and mobile games shine.

Buying volume, rolling servers, game trust... The game industry has been a capital game for a period of time, but there have been some changes in recent years, and other possibilities have evolved.

Recently, Fangcheng Studio's corresponding sales of several games proved that it is actually possible to make money doing stand-alone buyout games.

It's hard to say whether this open policy has anything to do with Fangcheng Studio.

But the loosening of the environment is an indisputable fact.

In various speeches, some people said that the relaxation will cause foreign games to have a strong impact on local games. Excellent games will flood in in large numbers.

Some people also say that this is essentially a WTO entry event, and domestic games will only become more prosperous because of this, and they can even export culture to every corner of the world.

In any case, things have already happened, and major manufacturers can only try to adapt to this environment, so as not to be killed by the rising waves.

As a large game company, Tianyi knew about this before Chinese New Year.

They began to actively deploy and prepare to use the Rongcheng branch as a pilot.

According to their plan, they will introduce a batch of foreign games for domestic distribution and operation, and the Chengdu branch will establish a separate project team dedicated to localizing these games.

After gaining enough experience, this working group will be split and reorganized, and will work on the global release of the game and various localization studies.

Due to repeated failures, Tianyi Rongcheng branch currently has no quota for game projects.

And even though it is the issuer, according to the company's senior management, they still need to obey the instructions of the other side, and even if they submit their own revisions, they need to be as few as possible.

It is true that he not only gave money, but also became someone else's son.

Although he was a little displeased with the arrangement of the headquarters, Zhang Ping, the president of the branch, also knew that there was no way around this matter.

For game studios, making good games is king.

For game companies, making money is king.

The various games introduced by the head office are all profitable and popular games. So for the head office. Doing a good job of localizing these games is the most important thing.

Therefore, although he was very unhappy with the arrangement of the head office, Zhang Ping organized the spacious office on the first floor early, and sent people to Shuangliu Airport to pick him up.

The partner this time is a second-tier game company of the Gallic Rooster, called Cat and Mouse Entertainment.

The founder of the company is a big fan of "Tom and Jerry", so he gave his company such a name.

The glory period of Cat and Mouse Entertainment was ten years ago, but because of the large amount of money in the glory period, the company's capital chain was broken, and many hot game IPs were reluctantly sold, and finally reduced to licensing old games, and then eating their money degree.

There are not many good works in recent years, but several games still have first-class costs. After the localization is done, it should be no problem to make a fortune.

There are a total of eleven expatriates from Cat and Mouse Entertainment.

They don't look like Gauls, but their serious expressions are more like those of Prussia.

After arriving at Tianyi, regardless of the impact of jet lag, they directly entered the meeting room, opened their own games, and then began to explain incessantly.

They used authentic French, and they spoke very fast. It was difficult for the French translator who was invited to keep up with the rhythm of the other party. He had to ask the speaker to pause from time to time, and then began to explain the meaning of the other party.

At this time, these Gauls would look at Zhang Ping indifferently and silently exert pressure.

Zhang Ping knew that this should be a way for the opponent to exert pressure on himself.

But they were supposed to be the partner of the cooperation, but the other party used this kind of trick to torture them, which made Zhang Ping very upset.

But if the game brought by the other party is better, then he will also recognize it.

But the problem is, what the other party brought out was nothing else, but an old game from a few years ago, "Magic Dynasty".

A few years ago, it was the time when eating chicken became popular, and "Magic Dynasty", as a chicken-eating game, was also popular for a while, and now it also has fans.

Magicians, knights, priests, druids... These familiar Western fantasy characters can be found in the game, and there are also special occupations such as mercury men and prisoners.

This game is indeed excellent, but in comparison, Zhang Ping still hopes that the other party will come up with "Murderer" or "Invasion Action", which are relatively popular and have potential recently, and will not collide with Fangcheng Studio's works product.

Temporarily interrupting the other party's speech, Zhang Ping said: "I have read your introduction before, so I will make a long story short. I admit that "Magic Dynasty" is a very classic chicken-eating game, and if it was a year ago If it is, I will be very happy to operate and release it, but the problem is that there have been very good chicken-eating games on the market in our country recently, and the number of online players of the other party has recently exceeded one million."

After listening to the translated content, a Gaul raised his eyebrows and said, "But I haven't heard of it."

"It's not available in French."

"That can only show that it is not good enough, and there is not even a French version."

The joke had the team roaring with laughter.

The leader, a blond man, clapped his hands to calm everyone down, and then said to Zhang Ping, who had a bad complexion, "I know you have concerns, but believe me, "Magic Dynasty" is a very good battle game." And we are currently operating the "Magic Dynasty" event. We have been preparing for this event for a long time, and I believe it will drive the sales of "Magic Dynasty" and greatly increase revenue."

With the lifting of the ban on foreign games, some foreign classic games will gradually be introduced, which is why Tianyi Headquarters considers cooperating with Cat and Mouse Entertainment.

After all, the other party's products have been relegated to the second line, but the operation of various events is not bad, this is one of the experiences Tianyi hopes to gain.

Just when Zhang Ping was racking his brains to make the other party change his mind, the other party had acquiesced that he had no problem, and turned to look at other plans and asked, "Anyone else have any problems?"

After a moment of silence, someone in the corner asked, "Is it convenient to know what kind of event it is?"

Turning his head, Zhang Ping saw Qiu Yu sitting in the corner with dark circles under his eyes, raising his hand curiously to ask his own question.

The translator glanced at Zhang Ping, and Zhang Ping nodded, asking the translator to translate the question.

"Good question." The blond man nodded in agreement, "We will fight in groups. In each area, 20 groups will fight separately, and finally the champion will be determined."

First, he introduced the method of the game in one sentence, and then the blond man introduced various details, then looked at Qiu Yu and asked, "I don't know what I said, do you understand?"

"I understand, but it's not quite right. Have you ever played a chicken-eating competition before?"

"It's the first time, but it shouldn't be too difficult. After all, Cat and Mouse Entertainment is a very mature game company, and we have done a lot of similar competitions." The blond man explained with a smile.

"But it doesn't include eating chicken, right? Can I understand that you are actually using Tianyi as cannon fodder to test your ideas? As far as I know, there seems to be no formal chicken eating event that has succeeded, because There are many problems that cannot be solved at the moment.”

The translator just wanted to turn over, but Zhang Ping held him down violently.

"Don't repeat these words. Tell them, let's take a break at halftime and continue discussing later. Qiu Yu, come with me."

Calling Qiu Yu, Zhang Ping led him to the stairs.

Qiu Yu was not tall, but Zhang Ping was shorter. The two of them looked busy at the stairs, so the other smokers left here decisively and went to other places for entertainment.

Zhang Ping took apart his own Yuxi, gave Qiu Yu one, and then lit it on his own.

Seeing that Qiu Yu didn't move, he took out the lighter again, pressed it and handed it to Qiu Yu.

"I quit..."

"Oh, sorry."

Putting the lighter back, Zhang Ping didn't ask for the cigarette back, but directly stomped out the cigarette, and then asked, "Tell me what you think."

"Which one is it?"

"The game part."

"Well, Cat and Mouse Entertainment obviously wants to promote the game, and then create a linkage effect with its own game. After all, the promotion of the game will help the promotion of the game and enhance their influence. After all, the domestic market is too big, and they also want to come in."

"Continue." Zhang Ping said.

"However, there are obviously pitfalls in this competition, because the chicken eating competition is still immature, and many people are looking for a more suitable solution, but it is a pity that it is difficult to solve it with ordinary methods."

Zhang Ping leaned against the wall, thought quietly for a while, and then sighed: "Unfortunately, we can't solve it. The pressure from the head office is too great, and we must cooperate."

"Then delay it, after a few days, they should know what to do."

Qiu Yu's calm made Zhang Ping aware of something.

Looking at the other party with squinted eyes, Zhang Ping asked: "You boy... tell me, do you know any news?"

"Anyone can find out the news. Fangcheng Studio's "Quietness and Self-cultivation" competition program is about to start broadcasting."

Zhang Ping frowned and recalled, then nodded and said, "It is true, but does it have anything to do with our current problem?"

"They shouldn't be stupid. Although they are using us as guinea pigs, if there is a proven feasible plan, they should also adopt it. I feel that Fangcheng Studio also has people who are capable in operation. I should have thought of a problem-solving idea, otherwise I wouldn’t have spent such a large amount of money to do this.”

"Are you sure they have ideas?"

"I dare not say anything else, but that is Fangcheng Studio."

"……Too."

It has to be said that Fangcheng Studio is currently a golden sign in the game industry.

Even if he lost to the opponent twice, Zhang Ping had to admit that the strength of the opponent grew too fast, and the game became more and more fun.

And I heard that they have a strategic cooperation relationship with Kirin Industry. Although the VR all-in-one platform is small, it can already determine the lower limit of the game, so that they will not lose money almost no matter what they do.

This condition is a dream condition for every player.

After all, who wouldn't want to have a gold medal to avoid death and play games unscrupulously.

Sighing enviously, Zhang Ping looked at Qiu Yu and continued to ask, "How long do you think we can see the effect?"

"Well... about two weeks. Their program has two episodes a week, and four episodes can be watched in two weeks. The ratings and audience evaluation can be fed back in these four episodes, and those Gauls should be able to watch it."

"Two weeks..."

The pressure from the head office is to start work within a week.

However, if work is started, many plans will be finalized, and it will be very troublesome to change at that time, and it will also be a heavy blow to the morale of one's own operations and planning.

It would be even worse for those Gauls if their brains were as hard as baguettes and they had to bite the bullet and stick to the original policy.

Zhang Ping also feels that traditional competitions are unreliable and the possibility of failure is high.

In case of failure, all the Gauls lost was their ideas, and what they lost might be their jobs.

Looking at Qiu Yu in front of him, Zhang Ping let out a long breath, and then said seriously: "Qiu Yu, I recommended you to me directly when I was walking away, saying that you are a game genius, and I also admire your performance in the small game department recently." I've been watching it all the time. It's very eye-catching and powerful. So I want to ask you, can I trust you?"

Qiu Yu looked at Zhang Ping as if he had seen a ghost, frowned and said, "I'm just a small planner, you put pressure on me? Are you the president or am I the president!"

"You know I'm the president and you still talk to me like this!"

"It's a big deal, I'm going to get out, I'm still used to your stinking problem in what age."

"you……"

Looking at Qiu Yu, who was born after 2000, Zhang Ping felt that the other party really came to rectify the workplace.

However, he also has the capital of arrogance. With a few ideas, he revitalized the half-dead small game department. This talent is really beyond the reach of ordinary planners.

After thinking for a while, he patted Qiu Yu's shoulder and said, "I understand. I believe in you. I'll delay it for two weeks at the head office. After it's done, you'll basically be the chief planner."

"What if it doesn't work?"

"Then I will be gone."

Looking at the serious Zhang Ping, Qiu Yu felt that his position as the chief planner might be secure.

It's time to think about what game to make.

I'm crazy busy today, sorry, I'll finish coding the remaining two updates as soon as possible.
