There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning Chapter 544

  Chapter 544 Contrast

   Time comes to Thanksgiving, Black Friday.

  Christmas is approaching.

  The atmosphere changed.

  Maybe domestic players don't feel deeply.

  After all, there are no similar festivals in China, and Lin Yao's previous life, such as Double Eleven, has not yet appeared.

   But for overseas Christian countries.

  The feeling is deep.

  Even gamers who stay at home can feel the change in the atmosphere.

  Because during this period of time, almost every game company will come out to hold promotions and activities.

  Whether it is a hardware console or a software game.

   Moreover, because Europe and the United States are one of the most important player warehouses, the promotion activities at this time point are also the largest in a year.

  The only exception is probably the Vaporwave game platform.

  During the Chinese New Year.

  The Vaporwave game platform will also hold promotional activities, and the promotion will be stronger than ever, but because the activities are limited to domestic, and the main target of the discount is Linmu Studio's own first-party games and hardware.

  So in terms of scale and scope of promotion, the period from Thanksgiving to Christmas is the most exaggerated.

  During this time, temptations are really everywhere, bright minus signs and green words everywhere...

   Tempting players all the time, spend money quickly...

  Because there have been such promotions in the past two years, this year there are already players making teasing videos.

right.

  It's the funny video of Lin Yao's wallet being sucked away in her previous life…

   And the subject of ridicule is the Vaporwave game platform.

  Because this kind of bright minus sign and green words were first created by the Vaporwave game platform, and then taught a bunch of peers to ruin.

   But most of them are just teasing.

  Though, it does tend to cost more.

   But entertainment needs will always exist, and it is hard to tell whether promotional activities are good or bad.

  If you don't want to spend money, you can immediately save 100% if you don't buy it, and it doesn't make much sense to promote it or not.

But if you really want to play a certain game, but feel that it is a bit of a loss to spend hundreds of dollars for a game in a short period of time, then the bright green text in the promotion is the best gift... After all, many masterpieces that have been on sale for a long time, in the This time period will drop to double digits.

   plus.

  During these days, promotions are not limited to PC, but also include consoles.

   So it's totally fair to say that.

   It's a shopping festival for the masses, and it's also a shopping festival for gamers.

  As long as players are interested in a certain game, they will be happy these days.

   I have always been reluctant to buy games, or I was just interested in games without a strong impulse to buy... Every player will have a few games.

  The discount at this time is the best time to start. It must be a good thing to experience the game you are interested in.

certainly.

  There are also regrets.

   That was during this period of time when all game manufacturers jointly created a festive atmosphere.

   New games are few and far between.

  Especially...no new games from Forest Woods Studios.

   This is really a pity for many old players.

  Old games will always be old games. After discounts, the sense of anticipation can't match the new games.

  Especially after comparing it with last year...it feels even worse.

  What was the situation last year? FPS chaos, "Call of Duty" turned out.

  What is the situation this year?

  Lim Studio, which surprises players every year, has been silent this year, as if dead...

  Whether it's the legendary sequel to Call of Duty or the sequel to Dark Souls.

   There is no news at all.

  Now many players even begin to believe that—I believe that Linmu Studio is not dissatisfied with the arrangement of the Global Game Awards Committee and refuses to participate in the broadcasting session, but will refuse to participate in the broadcasting session no matter what.

   They may not have a release plan at all by the end of the year!

   And speculating around this conclusion, the more players think about it, the more credible they feel.

first.

  Linmu Studio held a carnival in the first half of the year, and all players who watched it said it was good.

   But this kind of good... is bought with time and energy.

  In the early stage, the "Easter Egg Adventure" lays the groundwork all the way, and finally it will be held at the Forest Carnival. Various games will be linked, and the investment required must be considerable.

   Considering that at the carnival at that time, all the high-level executives of Linmu Studio appeared on the stage, then the game projects of Linmu Studio must have been suspended at that time.

  After the carnival, several subsequent games were released, and there was a super-large online game public beta some time ago.

  This again means that Linmu Studio has invested a lot of energy and manpower.

   And Carnival.

  Although Linmu Studio hinted at the sequel of "Call of Duty", it also released a character design.

   But that was just a human design, and there was not even a game title...

   It can be inferred from this that this must still be in the stage of 'new folder'.

   Based on such reasoning, players can easily draw a conclusion, that is—Linmu Studio invested too much in the carnival, which caused the game release in the second half of the year to be affected.

Then.

  In order to recover from the impact of no new game release at the end of the year.

  Lin Yao stood up and injected new vitality into the platform of the e-sports festival that could not be cancelled.

   Compensate the players from another aspect.

  This is connected to the promotional video of the Linshu E-sports Festival...

  Thinking about it this way, it is really very reasonable.

  Although, not without player suspicion.

  Linmu Studio will announce new games at the e-sports festival.

  But... E-sports festivals and carnivals are fundamentally different in nature. The former is an event, while the latter is a fan carnival.

  The new game appears on the latter, which can surprise players, but it appears on the former...how? It doesn't feel right.

   Unless it is a game related to several e-sports events.

  Such as derivative IP and the like.

  Actually, the players are not to blame for this, it is mainly because Linmu Studio has done a really good job of keeping secrets.

  Generally, in such activities, it is difficult to hide from the players what they want to do.

   During the preparatory period, there is usually a leaking link.

   But thanks to the internal cohesion of Linmu Studio, the insiders of the whole plan are all high-level people, and there is almost no news at all.

   Players will think that Lin Yao's appearance is to compensate for the lack of new game announcements, which is normal.

  Even if it is Frank from Gilber Company, this colleague.

  I don't think Linmu Studio will announce a new game at the e-sports festival...

  How long will the Forest Carnival be held in the first half of the year? Are you coming again at the end of the year?

how is this possible.

  And what does the Esports Festival have to do with new games? How to announce?

   These are the questions.

  This is also the reason why Frank feels that Linmu Studio's anger and the Global Game Awards are on the line.

  As long as it is not from the perspective of God.

  The majority of people tend to believe what they think is the truth.

  "Linmu Studio won't have any new games at the end of this year, wait for the beginning of next year... This year, we'll see what surprises Lin Yao will bring to players when he leads the E-sports Festival again. The promotional video is full of surprises anyway.

  As for the buddies who want to play FPS, they can only play the new games of Gilber Company and Dreamland, which is really cheap for them! There is no such opponent as Call of Duty this year! It is estimated that they can wake up laughing when they sleep! "

  As Black Friday passes, massive sales are on their fifth day.

  Linmu Studio still remained silent.

   Players have accepted this fact...

  They turned their attention to the upcoming e-sports festival.

  The promotional video for this year's e-sports festival is really good.

  Also with the originally normalized activities, it has also received more attention.

   Soon, the annual ticket grabbing...became the hottest topic.

   Although the venues of e-sports festivals are getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more seats.

   But compared to the huge audience who want to go to the scene, there are still too few seats.

  If you count the tickets reserved for overseas audiences.

   That's even less.

  So every year to grab tickets, the players are like Eight Immortals crossing the sea.

   But even if they try their best, there are players who fail to get tickets every year.

  And this year, because of the novel e-sports festival promotional video, it has become even more difficult to get tickets for the opening ceremony.

  The last batch of tickets released.

   Still a bunch of players didn't get it, and the forum was filled with mourning...

   "Fuck! Do you live on the ticketing website? Twenty seconds! The whole process took me twenty seconds! It took me three seconds to refresh! The ticket is gone!?"

   Forum.

  A player couldn't help but post a complaining post.

   And this post, at the same time, was read out by Lin Yao who was far away at the headquarters of Linmu Studio.

   "Twenty seconds is actually a long time..."

  When Mu Wanqing heard the words, she replied helplessly: "The background data shows that the last batch of tickets were sold out almost as soon as they went on sale."

"I know."

Lin Yao sat behind the desk, nodded lightly, and then said: "If you count those players or scalpers who use high bandwidth and scripts, it's really normal not to get it in more than 20 seconds. I don't blame you, I just feel sorry..."

  The weather has turned cold a few days ago.

  It is still windy today.

  So Lin Yao didn't dare to run around in a T-shirt.

   Today, she still wears light blue jeans on her lower body, and her long legs are still plump and beautiful, which is pleasing to the eye. In order to keep out the cold, a light pink knitted sweater was added to the upper body. The chest was raised high, like undulating mountains, elegant and clean, making her look extra gentle.

   Such a suit and her round face made her words more convincing.

certainly.

   This is from Mu Wanqing's perspective.

  Lin Yao herself didn't feel anything.

  She really felt sorry.

  But for ticket grabbing, she has already done everything she can, but it is not empty talk.

   She can't do anything about many things.

   "At least, most of the players who grab the tickets are still players, and that's enough." Mu Wanqing comforted Lin Yao in a low voice.

   "Well... that's right."

  Lin Yao smiled, and didn't struggle with this matter for long.

   What Mu Wanqing said is right.

   And compared to grabbing tickets, she has more important things to focus on.

   Actually.

  Lin Yao has been following the players' discussions during this time.

  She also knows the player's guess.

  Players feel that there will be no new games released by Forest Studio at the end of the year.

  For Linmu Studio, there are pros and cons.

  If, the opening ceremony of the Linmu E-sports Festival, the final short film and the new game are good enough to impress the players.

  That's a good thing.

   It is estimated that it will be a big surprise for the players!

   Then the huge attention of the e-sports festival, and the sense of surprise of finding it again, will also bring huge attention to the new game.

  But if it's not good... Well, the effect is estimated to be worse than the regular publicity.

  So the key point is still the opening ceremony.

   "What are you thinking about?"

  Mu Wanqing suddenly made a sound, interrupting Lin Yao's thoughts.

   "The opening ceremony... Sure enough, we still need to confirm the process again, Ms. Mu, please let them come to the meeting room. Then you can accompany me to the scene again in the afternoon to see the rehearsal situation."

  Lin Yao raised her head and said suddenly.

"OK."

  Although it has been confirmed many times, but Lin Yao asked, she still nodded.

  But before leaving, she sized up Lin Yao, and couldn't help reminding: "The weather is getting colder now, and the wind is still quite strong. Be careful to keep warm when you go out. If it doesn't work, I can buy you a coat first."

   "The suit I'm wearing is quite warm, don't worry."

  Lin Yao shook her head lightly, then watched Mu Wanqing leave, and smiled, feeling pretty good.

  Although Lin Xi and Mu Wanqing are quite annoying sometimes... It's like a motherhood outbreak.

   But this annoying feeling, not bad.

   "The opening ceremony and opener will be held at 7:30 p.m. on December 5."

   "At 10 am on December 6th, a meet and greet will be held."

   "Why not set the opening ceremony directly at the same time as the Global Game Awards?"

meeting room.

  Lin Yao and the executives who participated in the e-sports festival went through the process of the e-sports festival again.

  Then, the person in charge of a project team seemed to have lost his mind, and suddenly asked a question.

"jet lag."

  Lin Yao explained: "The Global Game Awards is held in New York, and there is a 12-hour time difference with us. When the opening ceremony is held at 7:00 p.m., it is morning over there, which is just right for European and American players.

   But if it is held at the same time, we have to hold the opening ceremony and the opening game in the morning. The opening ceremony is okay, but the opening game... I guess the players have not woken up yet. "

  Lin Yao knows e-sports players very well.

  They don't officially wake up until the afternoon...

   Let them play games early in the morning, either it is impossible, or the effect will not be very good.

   It is possible to deform the operation. If you really want to force it, the final opener will probably become a full banquet...

   "So the opening ceremony definitely can't be scheduled in the morning, but the face-to-face meeting can be."

  Lin Yao smiled lightly, and continued: "However, this meeting held at the same time as the Global Game Awards, how much players' attention can be attracted depends on the opening ceremony the night before.

  Our strategy is very simple. We will present new games at the opening ceremony in the evening, and hold a meet and greet the next morning. It happens that both events can take into account both domestic and European and American players. "

"Currently, the candidates for the meeting are Zhong Xiu and Tong Zeyu, the project team leader of "Dark Soul". Let's work hard then... You don't need to worry about the e-sports festival that night. You should recharge your batteries and have a good time the next day. Show off the new game!"

   "Then will you participate?"

  Zhong Xiu looked at Lin Yao, and asked curiously: "I guess the effect will be better with you..."

  Lin Yao thought for a while, and replied: "I'll see the situation when the time comes. In fact, as long as the e-sports festival is eye-catching enough, I don't have to worry about no one watching the next day."

"All right."

Zhong Xiu thought for a while, agreed, and then suddenly smiled and said: "Speaking of... now not only the players think that we will not have a new game released this year, it seems that Gilber Company and Dreamland have believed it, and they have begun to support their new game. The game has gained momentum, and the promotional efforts seem to be higher than in previous years... I guess it feels that there is no such opponent as "Call of Duty", and I want to make efforts."

"real!?"

  Lin Yao's eyes lit up when she heard the words, she leaned forward slightly with her hands on the table.

  Zhong Xiu looked at the beautiful boss who was suddenly unreserved, and was a little speechless: "Really."

   "That's a good thing... Our meeting at 9 o'clock in the morning happened to be halfway through the process of the Global Game Awards, and when the film started..."

Lin Yao bit her lip lightly, smiled wickedly, then stood up directly, and pulled Mu Wanqing beside her: "Stop talking! I'm going to watch the rehearsal, what should you do. "

   Say it.

  Lin Yao quickly pulled Mu Wanqing away.

  The people present in the conference room watched Lin Yao run away, dumbfounded, and then a little dumbfounded.

  So caring, it seems the boss still holds grudges...

   But as long as she is happy...

the other side.

  Lin Yao asked Mu Wanqing to get the car keys to get ready to go out, while she returned to the office to check the overseas situation.

  She walked around.

   Then I found that Zhong Xiu was right.

  Geber Company and Dreamland seem to have the same idea as the players.

  They don't think there will be a Call of Duty rival at the end of the year…

   Started to exert strength.

   "This can't be done... I can surprise them!"

  Although Lin Yao's spoken English is poor, her foundation is still good, and she has no problem understanding most of the posts.

  She wandered around overseas forums.

  Seeing that many players are regretting that there will be no new "Call of Duty" work at the end of this year, and then they can only discuss the new works of "Mobile Force" and "Smoke of Battlefield" by Fantasyland and Gilber.

  She was quite happy.

   At this time.

   There was a knock on the door.

   "Are you ready?"

  Lin Yao withdrew her gaze, turned off the screen, stood up, looked at Mu Wanqing who walked in, and hurriedly said: "Then let's go, the rehearsal should start soon."

"and many more…"

  Mu Wanqing came to Lin Yao, then rummaged through the small shoulder bag, took out a lip balm from it, and handed it to Lin Yao: "Come on, put on your lips, it's really windy outside."

"Need not."

  Lin Yao subconsciously refused, not because she was resisting, but mainly because she didn't want to delay.

   "It will be ready soon." Mu Wanqing took a step forward and insisted on painting.

   "Okay...then paint it on."

  Looking at Mu Wanqing's insistence, Lin Yao thought about it, then raised her head slightly.

  But Mu Wanqing was stunned.

   It took a while before I realized it.

  She unscrewed the cap of the lip balm, then took a step forward, gently holding Lin Yao's delicate face with one hand, and picked up the lip balm with the other hand, and carefully placed it on her soft and moist lips.

   "Why are you so nervous?"

  Lin Yao kept her posture, and suddenly asked narrowly.

"I do not have…"

  Mu Wanqing made an excuse, and at the same time carefully applied Lin Yao's shiny red lips with lip balm.

   Move carefully and carefully.

  Lin Yao didn't ask any more questions, she stuffed lip balm into her mouth for fear of talking again...

but.

  It took longer to apply lipstick than she thought.

   Almost five minutes later.

   Only then did Mu Wanqing let go of her face, and whispered: "Okay."

"Um…"

  Lin Yao lightly licked her moist lips after applying lip balm.

  Then, she directly took the lip balm from Mu Wanqing's hand, and suddenly said, "Come on, I'll apply it for you too..."

  Mu Wanqing was stunned again, but before she could react, Lin Yao had already leaned forward slightly, holding lip balm against her red lips.

   A cold touch came.

  Mu Wanqing's delicate body froze, and then the tips of her ears turned red.

  Lin Yao didn't seem to notice, half lying in Mu Wanqing's arms, while helping her apply lip balm, said: "Miss Mu, your lips look so rosy... lipstick?"

"…Um."

  Mu Wanqing responded, and then said: "But I still like your healthy color, it looks better."

   "Shut up...or lip balm will be stuffed in your mouth."

  Lin Yao paused, then giggled and said, "Besides, I'm just the opposite. I like the color of your lips better."

  Mu Wanqing: "..."

"All right."

  Lin Yao's smearing speed is obviously faster than that of Mu Wan.

soon.

  She put away the lip balm, handed it back to Mu Wanqing, and straightened her waist at the same time.

  Mu Wanqing took the lip balm, and at the same time lightly licked the attractive red lips after applying the lip balm.

  Lin Yao looked at her closely, looked at her seductive rosy mouth, thought of something, and suddenly took out her mobile phone from her jeans pocket: "Miss Mu, why don't you make a comparison."

  Mu Wanqing: "Compare...?"

  Lin Yao smiled, leaned against her again, raised the phone, and pointed the camera at herself and Mu Wanqing.

at the same time.

  He tilted his head forward slightly, and stopped just a few centimeters away from Mu Wan's clear and moist red lips.

   "Miss Mu, look at the camera."

  Lin Yao looked at the same position, and looked sideways at the camera.

  Mu Wanqing felt the warm breath that was close at hand.

no response.

   "Eh, you can hug my waist if you want...but look at the camera."

  Lin Yao pressed against her face, rubbed it lightly, and reminded again: "Don't purse your lips, open them slightly, yes...that's it."

  Mu Wanqing finally looked at the camera.

   on the phone screen.

  The two leaned together, their cheeks touching, their rosy mouth slightly opened, revealing their white teeth.

  Click.

  The screen freezes.

  When Lin Yao saw the flash light, she immediately straightened her waist, turned over the phone, and after looking at it, she showed it to Mu Wanqing, and said with a bright smile, "Look, in comparison, yours looks better, right?"

  Wanqing didn't look at her phone, but kept looking at Lin Yao.

   After a while.

  She cast her eyes on the phone screen and whispered: "We are almost kissing together."

   "...Kiss, just kiss, anyway, they are same-sex friends."

  Lin Yao didn't seem to mind, she looked down at the photo she took, brushed her hair at the temples, and replied flatly.

   Then, after looking at the photos for a while.

  She put away her mobile phone, turned around, and walked briskly towards the door: "Let's go."

  Mu Wanqing: "..."

   "Let's go."

  Lin Yao came to the door, but Mu Wanqing stood still before she could react.

   She finally realized that she seemed a little too much.

  She came back with some amusement, then pulled the confused Mu Wanqing and led her out of the office.

   Actually she really doesn't mind.

  Lin Yao and Mu Wanqing are after a small episode.

  Successfully arrived at the venue of the E-sports Festival.

   Then, the last rehearsal began.

   And at the same time.

   With the last batch of tickets for the opening ceremony of the e-sports festival sold out.

   Hot topics, also changed.

  The players put aside the matter of the new game, and once again, returned to the topic when the e-sports promotional video was just announced.

   That's… this year's Esports Festival.

   What surprises will there be.

   Because right away.

  The opening ceremony of the e-sports festival is coming.

   Fail, fail, fail, fail, fail, fail, fail.

   Whether it is adjusting the update time or writing it out in one go.

   All failed.

   Orz...sorry
