The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games Chapter 147

Chapter 147 145. Take a step and take a cool step

Before the glory of the king was released, in fact, most islanders and the island game industry were not particularly optimistic.

Only the Nasu Mushroom who has really played the King of Glory, that is, the staff of Xingyue Company, can know how good this game is.

Unfortunately, they are still just starting out, and they have no appeal.

So in the island country, there are skeptical remarks about the glory of the king.

"Huh? Xingyue was released, I thought the King of Glory was made by Xingyue? Their previous Yueji was okay."

"Xingyue is good, but this is a Chinese game. Xingyue is just a publisher, and they are not making it."

"Hey? Can games made by Chinese people be played?"

"Hahahaha, if you know about it, you know that this question doesn't exist at all, because there will always be only one answer—

That is not to play. "

"Chinese people can make games? I have never heard of Chinese games. Don't the games they play are imported from our side?"

"Yes, yeah, I remember that Nintendo's game consoles are selling well in China. They all play Super Mario. The recent Stone Age seems to be imported from our side."

"So what game masterpiece does the Chinese have?"

"I don't know about this... probably they are in the initial stage."

Some people spoke very tactfully and implicitly expressed doubts about the quality and level of Chinese games.

Although some other people didn't say it publicly, they scolded more harshly in their hearts.

"The Chinese are all following our ass. What games will they do?"

"They even lag behind in painting for decades, what do they use to make games?"

"Yeah yeah."

Although many people have seen the posters and gave them high ratings, most islanders believe that a good poster has little to do with the game.

It is likely that both the promotion and the poster are the credit of the month.

When I saw the propaganda poster of the glory of the king on the road, the president of DMM company Keiji Kameyama was a little strange.

"This poster is well done, King of Glory, the game screen is okay, very interesting."

DMM is the company that Cao Yang wanted Ai Xiaomi to cooperate with.

The most famous company of this company is not the game industry, but the Ivy industry. In 2001, it was in full swing. It was known as the leader of the Ivy world, and the president Keiji Kameyama was known as the father of Ivy. He did it every day at work. The thing is to study Ivy's artist information and the sales of each album, from which the game sums up the rules and formulates the future development direction of the company.

Later, this company entered the game industry by chance and quickly became the island's largest game publisher.

However, the boss of DMM, Keiji Kameyama, didn't think about becoming a game publisher at the beginning. This was a coincidence. He didn't know what the game was when he acted as Kanniang, and he didn't play the game himself, according to Kameyama Keiji's words. Say: "Just because [their plan looks feasible] I agreed."

Seeing the poster that the boss was complimenting the glory of the king, the subordinates next to him kindly reminded him, "President, have you forgotten? This game company has come to us before. It is a Chinese game company and wanted us to become The publisher of the game."

"Oh~"

After some reminders from him, Kameyama Keiji suddenly remembered that there is indeed such a thing.

"But I don't know about games, and can the games made by Chinese have our own local games?" Kameyama Keiji asked.

"Then... there should still be a gap." The subordinates considered their words. He has never played a Chinese game, but he has occasionally seen similar comments before. Everyone's feedback on the quality of Chinese games and the graphics is not very good. .

"But this poster is really well made, at least better than some small domestic companies." Kameyama Keiji gave a pertinent evaluation. He looked at the lower right corner of the poster. The publisher wrote TYPE-MOON. (タイプムーン).

"TYPE-MOON? Which company is this, I have never heard of it."

"I don't know too well," the subordinate leaned forward and replied, with an awkward but polite smile on his face, "It should be a small domestic company."

"Oh."

Keji Kameyama nodded, and he didn't take it seriously. After all, for Keiji Kameyama, who now takes Ivy's career as the core, Bomi's game cooperation is just a small episode in his life.

Not even a small splash.

The kind that may be completely forgotten in the near future.

So Kameyama Keiji closed his eyes and began to rest.

Two days later, on December 15th, Glory of Kings 1 began to be sold in the island country.

On the day of sale, the doors of major retailers were unexpectedly deserted.

Although Bomi made a lot of advertisements this time, it was huge, and it also invited a lot of famous and famous people to sit here, but the number of people who actually bought it was not very large.

Only a few high school students come to buy it because they are curious or like Ayako Kawasumi.

This is actually a matter of course, because first of all, the culture of Dongdao people is very special. It is unique in the world, and it is difficult for the culture of other countries to open the market in the island country.

What's more, the game maker is still a Chinese company.

Although the publisher is a local company in the island country, Xingyue's reputation is not big, and many players have not even heard of the name. Only a small number of people in the circle know about "Tsukihime" made by Xingyue, and the early days of Nai. A light novel written by Xu Mushroom.

In one sentence—

This wave is lonely.

"Boss, it's over, it's over."

On the second day after The Glory of Kings was sold on the East Island, Cao Yang, who entered the company early in the morning, heard the bad news from Ai Xiaomi.

Cao Yang's eyebrows were cold, "What are you doing? You touched me early in the morning?"

"No," Ai Xiaomi waved her hand and explained quickly, "Yesterday, the sales results of King Glory 1 in the island country came out."

"It's over?" Cao Yang asked.

Ai Xiaomi froze for a moment, "No, no, I haven't reported the results yet, don't you want to know the numbers?"

Cao Yang rolled his eyes, "I'm not asking if you are finished, I am asking if the results are over?"

"Huh? Boss, how calm can you be when you hear this word?"

Ai Xiaomi really admires Cao Yang's concentration.

Cao Yang waved to her, "The influence is not good, come to my office and say."

Ai Xiaomi Pidian Pidian followed behind Cao Yang and entered the boss's office.

Cao Yang asked the secretary to make tea for the two of them, and waited for Ai Xiaomi to take a sip before asking, “So what's the result?”

"Release results..." Ai Xiaomi curled her lips uncomfortably, "It's miserable, less than 500 copies."

"what…"

The tea brush in Cao Yang's hand suddenly fell off and hit the floor with a clatter, making a crisp sound.

The little secretary instinctively turned around.

It was the first time she saw Boss Cao's eyes with such despair and shock.

"I thought that the big heart is like the boss, you will not be defeated by such a small setback." Ai Xiaomi said in surprise.

"No…"

Cao Yang bent over to pick up the tea brush and put it aside.

"You wait for me to take a moment."

He covered his mouth with the back of his hand and thought about it carefully.

I always feel that something is wrong.

impossible.

Know that the core script of Honor of Kings 1 is FATE!

is the most famous Fsn among FATE! Staynight, the foundation work of the entire FATE series, and the future comics and surroundings, are basically around this work.

When the previous work turned out, it overwhelmed the masterpiece "CLANNAD" created by the key agency for 4 years and became the sales champion of the year. Until 21 years, the sales of FSN on the PC side were still among all galgames. Top of the list.

Such a powerful work, how could Waterloo be like this?

Be aware that you can sell a good result of 50,000 on the first day in China.

There is no reason why you can only sell 500 copies in an island country.

Although the population of the island country is small, there are many otakus, and they have a high enthusiasm for paying for games. For them, playing games is just like eating. It is an indispensable thing in life.

Although galgame is niche, it is not uncommon.

There must be something wrong.

Cao Yang took out his mobile phone and looked at it, “It's 9:20 Beijing time. We have a one-hour time difference with the island country. Therefore, we still have one hour of sales opportunities. Maybe the remaining one hour can create miracles. Woolen cloth?"

"Boss, you should be more alert."

Ai Xiaomi suddenly got up and held Cao Yang's shoulders with both hands, "Island is sometimes right with us, but they are one hour faster than us!"

"What?!"

Cao Yang was struck by lightning.

This feeling is even more so than when he heard his roommate say that the lyrics of "Love Me China" is not "56 nations, 56 flowers," but "56 constellations, 56 flowers". Unbelievable.

"Is that so? The time in the Imperial Capital is actually slower than the time in Dongdu?!"

Cao Yang took a closer look, and found that it's really true.

In other words, the first day of sales has indeed ended...

"Fuck...500 sheets, is that too little?"

Gan...

Cao Yang felt a little confused.

If the sales volume on the first day is 500, then I don't know if there can be 2,000 at the end of this month. I am afraid that the total sales of the entire game will not even be 3,000.

This is still relatively optimistic.

Although the price of Glory of Kings in the island country is very high, it is 6,000 yen, which is almost 350 yuan.

But if only 3,000 copies are sold, it is a figure that even the operating cost cannot be recovered!

"Don't worry about the boss," Ai Xiaomi consoled him in turn, "Our games are of high quality. It must be because islanders discriminate against us, so not many people buy them.

After the people who bought it experience it, it will spread.

The smell of wine is not afraid of the deep kiln, the boss, we can observe it for a few days. "

"Yes, yes, it must be so."

Cao Yang patted his head to calm himself a little bit.

He is also a werewolf who can forcibly recoup $1.5 billion from U.S. stocks. How could he be frightened just because of the unsatisfactory sales performance of East Island?

Seriously, even if you can't sell it for a penny, you will only lose one or two million.

but…

Selling so badly is not a question of money, but the most important thing is face.

"Well, it must be like this," Cao Yang appeared calmer, and sat down on the chair again. "We are at a disadvantage because we are a Chinese company and we are foreigners in island countries. The level of domestic games is generally limited, so they don't It is normal to believe that we can do a good job.

The key is that the partner I found this time was not well-known, so I fell into the ice cave in the cold. "

At this moment, Cao Yang suddenly remembered something.

"Millet?"

"Here, boss." Ai Xiaomi stared at him blankly, waiting for his instructions at any time.

Cao Yang paused, and said, "That's the smell of wine, not afraid of the deep alleys, not the kiln."

"Huh?!" Ai Xiaomi was taken aback, "Did I just say that?"

After the first day of sales ended, Bomi had a brief two-hour conference call with Xingyue.

In the meeting, the operations of both parties analyzed and reviewed the sales situation this time.

The conclusions reached by everyone are generally more consistent.

The producer of Glory of Kings is Bomi, which is a disadvantage in itself. At that time, the identity of Bomi's producer should be properly hidden during the promotion. It may be better to use the month for promotion.

Another point, Xingyue's lack of appeal and influence has also resulted in unsatisfactory results on the first day.

Then, this time the promotion is really too anxious. There is very little time for the operation and the space for operation is also very limited.

Even they are a little worried now, will the excessive bundling of Honor of Kings 1 and 2 affect the sales of Honor of Kings 2 on the 23rd?

Or is King of Glory 2 able to successfully drive 1?

These are hard to say.

After all, Xinyue Company had no operational experience before.

Especially for this kind of temporary insertion demand, the operation situation of forcibly upgrading the King of Glory 1 to 2 before the release is even more unheard of and unseen.

It is the first time whether it is in an island country or in China.

So everyone can't say what the future holds.

But you can observe for a period of time to see the follow-up effect.

Everyone is more confident about the product.

Nao Mushroom also gave a high evaluation, "The Glory of the King is the most touching game I have ever played. As long as people are willing to immerse themselves and take the time to experience it, they will definitely feel that this game contains He was deeply impressed by his sincere feelings and strength."

"Well," Ai Xiaomi agreed, "I think so too."

There is no better way now, I can only go one step at a time.

However, the next thing is completely different from what everyone thought.

can be described as [take one step, cool one step].

At the end of the first week, Glory of Kings 1 was unexpectedly fixed at less than 2,000.

In the second week, Honor of Kings 2 was successfully connected. Unfortunately, the sales of Honor of Kings 2 were not very satisfactory.

The first day King of Glory 2 sold more than 800 copies.

This is still on the premise that it has been warming up for more than a month and has created a long-term momentum for the glory of Kings 2.
