Chapter 15: Let’s have a competitor and tease the plot

At 8 o'clock in the morning, Yuan Ji's breakfast shop.

Wang Jian dipped the yellow fried dough sticks into the salty tofu nao, shook it slowly twice, waited for the fried dough sticks to be soaked in the soup of tofu nao, and bit down in one bite.

The eyes narrowed comfortably, obviously satisfied with the taste.

Beside him, Luo Shuai was eating steamed stuffed buns, looking a little absent-minded, staring at the phone, constantly refreshing the page of the game platform.

"Boss, how much income do you think "Devil King" can earn?"

Wang Jian unhurriedly scooped up a spoonful of tofu brains, and replied, "I don't know, the game is pretty fun anyway."

Creating an interesting game world so that players can experience fun while playing their own games is Wang Jian's ideal in the industry.

Of course it is necessary to make money - just to eat well.Moreover, the development of games also requires a lot of financial support. After all, only a small number of classic games are made at a small cost.

But it is not worth admiring to pay too much attention to making money, or even hold the idea of ​​​​"making games is to make money".If a game devotes most of its production energy to "how to make more money" rather than "how to make the game more fun", such a game cannot be called a "game", but a simple " commodity".

With such a mentality, Wang Jian can now enjoy his breakfast in peace.

Luo Shuai muttered in a low voice: "Boss, I also think the game is very fun, but... I still feel a little nervous. By the way, it should be on the shelves now? Why isn't it displayed?"

Wang Jiandao: "Maybe it is still under review. Don't worry, if the game is released, I will receive a reminder message from the platform."

While talking, the phone made a "ding dong".

It was the listing reminder sent by the platform.

Luo Shuai pulled the page of the new game list to the end, his eyes lit up: "Boss, I found "The Devil". But why can't I see the downloads and ratings?"

Wang Jian explained: "You are a player account, and the game data is refreshed every hour. This is a mechanism of the platform to prevent robots from scoring and downloading. The background of the content publisher only displays real-time data."

What Wang Jian logged in on his mobile phone was the game development account whose registration information was "Longyuan Huyu".

Luo Shuai said eagerly, "Let me see the download count."

Wang Jian was helpless: "There can be several downloads in 2 minutes, just don't be disappointed after watching it."

Click on the data management page, and there are only 3 downloads of "The Demon King".

Sure enough, Luo Shuai looked quite shocked: "Why is it so small?"

Wang Jian said calmly: "Longyuan Interactive did not have a work before, and the fan base was zero. There was no publicity and reservation activities before the release of "The Demon King". This data is normal. We can only wait patiently. After the first wave of good reviews, there will be a big growth point."

At this time, I seemed to remember something, opened Feixun, and sent a message: "Brother Kai, the game I made is on the shelves today, the name is "The Devil Hid the Holy Sword from the Brave", let me tell you... "

When he was in the company, Brother Kai took good care of him as a junior and imparted a lot of experience selflessly.

When he knew that Wang Jian was going to start a business and make games, although he felt that the future was bleak and he was not optimistic, after some persuasion, he still sent his sincere blessings.

Now that the game is on the shelves, I must tell Brother Kai.

……

At the same time, a small communication group made by a certain game.

The members of the group are basically all kinds of game producers, planners, and designers.

They usually mainly chat and discuss information in the group, except for professional content, most of them are some industry gossip.

"According to the internal information I just inquired about, Tiansheng's new "Air Combat Warriors" has a turnover of 4000 million this month. Tsk, it is said that the bonus for the production team alone is 1000 million."

"The number of downloads of "Air Combat Warriors" has exceeded 200 million, and it is undoubtedly the number one on the mobile terminal of the new game list. It is about to become another gold mine for Tiansheng."

"Hey, when the game I develop can reach tens of millions a month, I will have no regrets in life."

"Giant is currently preparing to develop the fourth sequel of "Sword Jianghu". This time it seems that it is preparing to let Bleeding be the game producer."

""Sword Jianghu" is really my childhood memory. At that time, I turned on the computer to play this game every day after I finished my homework. In order to build a magic weapon, I brushed the steel back beast in Meteorite Valley for a week, and only then did I burst out a piece of black iron essence .”

""Swords and Swords Jianghu" is one of the best, the second is not bad, and the third is not only lacking in highlights, but also has a lot of bugs. It has been sprayed by players. It is said that it is a consumer sentiment, and it will not buy a sequel in the future. This time there will be four developments, so I’m not very optimistic about it anyway.”

"Bleeding is very powerful among senior game producers. He is best at making martial arts-themed games. Maybe it can bring "Sword Jianghu" back to life. And just the brand of "Bleeding Blood" and "Sword Jianghu" can It has attracted many players who like martial arts, and the sales will definitely not be bad."

"By the way, do you know "Aquarium Wars"? Hippo Games invested tens of millions in a project. It died suddenly within a week of its launch. The new game ranking dropped to 150, with a score of only 3 points. Responsible for this project The supervisor suffered from a heart attack and was directly hospitalized."

"This is too miserable."

"Hehe, I know their producer. I was bragging about myself in another group before. What kind of game is novel in theme, excellent in style of painting, and the monthly turnover is estimated at 300 million. At that time, I didn't like it. I’ll eat shit if I can make it back. Now it’s become a laughing stock.”

"The few games I made before were quite smooth, and it was inevitable that they would swell. Now they are being beaten back to the prototype, hey, I guess I will only be able to complete small projects in the future, and the future is worrying."

"It's self-inflicted. I was quite curious, so I played the game on purpose. It was really horrible. To be honest, I think 3 points are high."

"In the recent new game list, besides "Air Combat Warriors", what other games are worth paying attention to?"

"Little Pony Rush, which ranks tenth on the list, has 13 downloads. It is an independent game produced by a small company. The gameplay is quite interesting."

"It's rare for an independent game to enter the top ten list, even though it's a new game list."

"That's right, the top ten rankings are reserved by big companies, and they even negotiate with each other to stagger the release time of games. For example, this month, "Air Combat Warriors" stands out, leaving other games far behind."

A person nicknamed "Fengfeng" intervened in their conversation and said, "Hey, what are you talking about, it's quite lively?"

The planners and producers who were discussing all kinds of gossip, saw the nickname of this suddenly bubbling person, the group fell silent, and then the chat box scrolled down.

"Long time no see, Blizzard."

"The wind is big, we discussed "Air Combat Warriors" before, can you explain and analyze this game for us?"

"The wind is strong..."

Several senior game producers in the group are all at the SSR level.Compared with the other great dragons who see their heads and tails, Haifeng has not been promoted for a long time, and the relationship with the group of friends is also a little more familiar.

Recently, I have been busy preparing new games, and I have less time to eat melons in the group.

As soon as the bubble bubbled at this time, everyone immediately greeted enthusiastically.

Understanding popular games is the basic homework for game producers. As Tiansheng's new flagship, "Air Combat Warriors" was the first time that Haifeng downloaded and experienced it, and had a general understanding of the game's content.

When the group of friends asked about it, they didn't make any polite remarks, so they started from the shining points of this game and explained their own understanding.

After talking about something serious, he chatted casually with the group of friends for a while. Haifeng made a shy expression, and his big watery eyes with long eyelashes blinked: "Finally, I have an advertisement. My brother is a game producer. The first game developed, "Jack's Adventure" will be released tomorrow. I also provided some ideas for this game, and finally tried it out. It is very interesting. I hope everyone will support it, and it is best to help a little publicity. "

The unscrupulous group of friends joked one after another.

"(Funny) The wind is so strong, I thought you came from the water group."

"The wind is strong, and the foreshadowing doesn't need to be so long."

"Awaited"

"We both understand."

It's fun, it's fun, it's going to be on the shelves tomorrow, and for the sake of Haifeng, they will definitely support it.
