This is the ninth art

Chapter 133 The audience is a sensation! !Chu Jun's violent speech!

Originally, the current number one enemy of the game maker is Junyue Company.

Penguin and Wangnan even wanted to unite and open up channels.

The combination of the two not only raises the salary of employees.

Moreover, the rewards for game development have also increased several times, and even launched a [billion-dollar incentive plan] for all game designers!
The two leading companies promise to target all game developers across the country.

As long as games can be developed, any type of game can get a share of the hundreds of millions of prize pools from multiple perspectives such as game quality, innovation, and fun.

From the past, it is another matter whether you lose money in making games, even if you make money, you may not necessarily make much money.

Up to now, as long as you are sincere in making games, the higher the quality, the higher the bonus.

It means that the two major companies have joined forces to directly help some small game workshops.

This instantly aroused the creative passion of many game designers, and the number of recent game works of Penguin and Wangnan has surged.

We can't beat your Junyue's game quality, so let's smash your Junyue's game volume!
Once the volume of games is made, there will always be players who have a soft spot for a certain game.

There are 13 million people standing behind me!
Just when Penguin and Wangnan executives were complacent, they believed that this move would effectively limit the speed of Junyue's crazy rise.

Want to steal money from us?

Brat, you are still a little tender!
As a result, the explosion of "Journey" caught all manufacturers of traditional games by surprise.

All original plans were disrupted.

Crazy to seize the game market, this is a trivial matter.

But Chen Guan made it clear that he wanted to change the model of the game market and use browser games to ban traditional games, which was already a wolf's ambition, and everyone knew it.

The page game itself is actually not terrible.

It's also a mode in which the game exists.

But when human intervention is added, this is where the horrors begin.

Once the capital discovers this game operation method, it can earn a lot of money at a very small cost.

Then mass production will start, and small game workshops that can maintain operations with a dozen people will be set up all over the country.

All only produce page games.

Do you like Two-dimensional?

OK, I'll arrange a Two-dimensional page tour for you.

Do you like Xianxia?martial arts?Or Western Fantasy?
can be arranged.

Even game genres can be addressed.

Tower defense is fun, plants vs zombies is fun, isn't it?

OK, I also add similar tower defense elements to the page game.

But I will get 999 zombies at the beginning, and I will get you a super pea shooter. What shoots out is not peas, but lasers. The power is amazing.

A row of zombies runs straight through, aren't you happy?
Isn't it more exciting than you can only work hard to collect sunlight at the beginning, slowly grow pea shooters, and then slowly upgrade the plants?

In the final analysis, the web game activates in advance the refreshing feeling that players need to advance the game progress to experience.

Seriously destroys the logic of classic game loop progression.

Cause the balance of the game environment to be broken.

All major traditional game manufacturers are worrying about this matter.

"Is there a possibility that this kind of web games will disappear automatically?" Wang Chuanxi, director of the market research department of Wangnan Games, expressed his opinion.

"It activates the player's sense of refreshment in advance, and it will gradually cause the player to feel bored. Just like the 'flow' mentioned by Mr. Chu of Junyue Company, there is no room for the refreshment of browser games."

"I don't think it's possible." At the Penguin high-level meeting, R&D Minister Deng Zhou shook his head, and said to other executives who raised similar questions: "The problem we have considered, Chen Guan, that bastard has also considered it. Qifan Company seems to be A new trading system is being developed. The equipment recovery mechanism."

"Can players exchange the top-quality equipment that exploded in the game for real money?" After listening to his subordinate's speculation, Gong Bin's expression became more serious at the Shiyou headquarters: "In this case, even if the game itself is no longer attractive However, in order to make money, players will continue to play games, and even the longer they play, the more time they earn. It completely makes players give up other game time and only invest in "Journey"-like web games."

"If you can't beat it, you can only join?" Many game manufacturers are aware of this problem when they hold meetings.

Once joining, it means that Chen Guan has indeed opened up a new model in the game industry.

After all game manufacturers began to follow suit and join in, a monopoly was formed.

At that time, players who want to play games can only play these.

Otherwise there is nothing else to play with.

It is the so-called force-feeding, and the current domestic entertainment industry has already started to take this path.

From variety shows to TV movies, the traces of template mass production are very obvious.

And for the main star, she only needs to be a puppet obediently, and she doesn't need to have any acting skills or strength.

"Does the game have to repeat the same mistakes?"

"From now on, it seems that every step Chen Guan takes has locked up our countermeasures. If we want to make a comeback, we can only develop a 'short, flat, fast' game that can rival "Journey", and it is not a browser game. "

"Who has this ability?" I don't know which subordinate asked.

Almost all the top executives of major game companies have a name in their minds.

……

"Mr. Chu, Chen Guan has already started to criticize us Junyue directly, saying that he is willing to accept our cooperation, and that you can follow him if you want. He doesn't mind at all. This is simply exporting on our face!" Junyue meeting room.

regular meeting.

Originally, Junyue's senior management of various departments were very angry when they learned about the "Game Infernal Affairs" interview a few days ago.

They are all waiting for President Chu to hold a meeting to discuss the countermeasures.

But Mr. Chu didn't move at all.

Don't talk about the meeting.

When the time comes, he will leave work on time, and he also asked the employees to take more rest recently, and not to work overtime for nothing, because the company's electricity bill is very expensive.

With such a move, none of Junyue's high-level executives will be able to deal with it.

It's hard to wait until the routine meeting every Monday.

Yang Mai, the director of the operation department, couldn't bear it at first.

He was even worried about whether Mr. Chu had been watching the news recently and whether he didn't know about it, so he made a brief summary.

"Do we need to respond?" Ling Tianhang also looked at Chu Jun who was sitting in the middle.

All eyes turned to Chu Jun.

Chu Jun spoke calmly.

"Wait a little longer, don't worry."

Although all the employees were puzzled, since Mr. Chu was so calm, it was inconvenient for them to say anything more.

A week passed quietly.

The game market of "Journey" has expanded even more.

This kind of web game spread like a virus, because the experience cost is too low, the computer that can open the web page can play it.

As long as you play it is very cool.

Many passers-by fell into the pit one after another.

According to statistics at the beginning of the year, there were nearly 1500 million players, but by the end of April, it had expanded to nearly 2000 million!

And the average daily activity of "Journey" has also been smashing all the way, directly killing the 500 million mark!
In addition to "Journey", some small manufacturers have begun to follow this type of page game and follow behind to collect money.

Coupled with Qifan's intentional or unintentional hype, it has attracted people who don't know the truth.

There are growing calls for web games to ban traditional game models.

In the second week, Junyue had a regular meeting.

Chu Jun still only made a general plan for the future direction of the existing games, and asked about the progress of DNF and Honkai. He learned that DNF will take about four months to complete and enter the first internal test, and Honkai still needs at least two months.

He nodded and said nothing more.

But there is no mention of "Journey".

In the third week, the time came to the beginning of May.

Now, it's not just Junyue's internal staff who are anxious.

Even the high-level executives of major manufacturers began to sit still.

No, Mr. Chu, aren't you usually pretty awesome...

When they killed us, they rattled and killed us, and when they hit us in the face, they made a crackling noise.

Why are you silent now when you need to stand up and suppress web games?

You should show it off!

Come up with your genius creation-level game brains that day!

If this goes on like this, everyone really can't do it.

Either transform into a web game, and compete with the rich capitalists who have little strength and background, and grab the web game market.

Or they can only pack up and get out.

And even if it is a transformation, from the point of view of Penguin and Wangnan, which are mainly engaged in PC online games, this kind of hasty transformation will also pay a considerable price.

"Why don't you? Call Chu Jun and talk to him?" Penguin CEO Yang Wei watched the revenue of his game go from bad to worse, and anxiously walked around the office with his hands behind his back all day long.

But gathering the strength of the entire company department, they couldn't come up with a countermeasure.

In other words, the plan is stinky, and it is not enough to fight against "Journey".

Although it is no secret that Penguin and Wangnan United want to suppress Junyue.

But at this stage, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Yang Wei bit the bullet and found Chu Jun's contact information.

A phone call passed.

After a few polite greetings, Yang Wei mentioned the problems of the game "Journey".

In a tactful way, he asked Mr. Chu what he thinks about this, and whether there are any new games that can suppress "Journey"

Chu Jun's answer is very simple.

"Games, yes."

"People, missing."

"Uh..." Yang Wei paused slightly.

Good guy, your mouth just wants to poach someone!

This is to take care of yourself and ask someone to come!

Rolling his eyes, Yang Wei smiled again: "Brother Chu, don't worry about this! Our company is actually willing to help Junyue provide part of the human resources for this kind of thing. It's my family who fights. , Treat outsiders the same way. You can send me part of the game plan, and I will help you arrange manpower! Start developing new games immediately! Guaranteed to be fast and good!"

Chu Jun's speech was still extremely concise.

"No."

Yang Wei: "..."

Will you chat?Everyone is a CEO-level figure!Anyway, let's talk about the scene!

Although the idea of ​​stealing a game plan from Mr. Chu to make it myself was wasted.

However, Yang Wei did not lie about this point.

After thinking for a while, he said again: "Then, how many people are probably missing on Brother Chu's side?"

"Borrow 1000 people, and at least excellent employees with more than 3 years of experience in the industry."

hiss! !

1000 people! !
And what the hell is only elite?

You big-eyed Chu boy, you want to squeeze us penguins dry!
"Sorry... Our company can only provide a professional team of 50 people at most, and there is no more. After all, our company is not enough internally. It's a pity that we can't cooperate with Brother Chu." Yang Wei pretended to be polite, and then hang up the phone.

Of course he can take out 1000 people.

But take a thousand excellent employees to help Junyue develop games?

You are really a toad and a frog, an ugly flower.

Just after hanging up the phone, Yang Wei's cell phone rang again.

Taking a closer look, it was Wangnan CEO Gu Jie calling.

After answering, we chatted for a few words.

I learned that the other party also called Chu Jun not long ago.

The idea is quite different from my own.

I couldn't sit still anymore, and wanted to get some words out of Mr. Chu.

As a result, I was frightened by the team of 1000 people and hung up the phone quickly.

"Mr. Yang, what do you think?"

"Is it still worth looking at? Surely you won't borrow it! A thousand excellent employees will be given to him by Junyue? Then can they come back?"

"Yes, I think so too. Anyway, the loss is not our own company's loss. Maybe he, Jun Yue, is not in a hurry?"

"No borrowing! Absolutely no borrowing!"

The CEOs of both sides communicated and reached a consensus.

He thinks that employees should never be loaned to Junyue.

then.

It's the fourth week.

Yang Wei discovered a fatal problem.

His company makes more money than Jun Yue!

Earning more means losing more when you lose money!

This is close to a month, and the player churn rate even exceeds 50%!

Jun Yue's current monthly revenue is barely over [-] million.

But Penguin and Wangnan basically started with a billion dollars.

Everyone lost 50%, Chu Jun was silent, but Yang Wei was about to cry.

Who can stand this!

"Damn it!" Yang Wei couldn't take it anymore, he slapped the table, gritted his teeth and said cruelly, "I borrowed it!"

He personally called Chu Jun and expressed his determination to cooperate.

And also made a small request.

"If Mr. Chu is really sure about his game and believes that the development of the game will definitely limit the corruption of web games, I am willing to lend 1000 excellent employees to Mr. Chu. However, there are conditions. We must respect the labor force of the employees. ?So, during the loan period, I hope Junyue can provide them with corresponding salaries, bonuses, and benefits according to the number of days."

"Oh, it costs money, so there's no need."

"Huh?" Yang Wei was startled.

Still haven't figured out what's going on.

Listen to Chu Jundao again.

"The boss of Wangnan has negotiated with me to lend me [-] employees, and the salary will be reimbursed by Wangnan."

Yang Wei: "???"

He hurriedly asked.

"How long has it been?"

"Just before you called me last time. Mr. Gu's request is that after the game is developed, you can hang a LOGO of Junyue × Wangnan United."

"????"

Yang Wei wished he could rush to Wangnan headquarters to drag Gu Jie out, and have a real-life PK with him.

Hold!I'm really fucking convinced by Gu Jie, the sixth child!
Still talking on the phone right now, Yang Wei gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and smiled.

"Mr. Chu, our company is also willing to lend [-] employees to Junyue. The salary will be borne by our company, but we also need to mark our Penguin logo on the new game. Do you think this is okay?"

"It's no problem. Do we need to respect the labor of employees? They help me make games, and I sign them for them. It's fair." Chu Jun finally smiled.

Fair you XXX!The money is paid by us penguins themselves!
Yang Wei almost cursed in his heart, but on the surface he exchanged some polite greetings with Chu Jun.

After hanging up the phone, he immediately asked his secretary to start arranging the matter.

"Now that the manpower is ready, it's up to you whether you can create another miracle. What kind of game will you come up with to fight against "Journey"? I'm really looking forward to it." Yang Wei looked out the window at the dark cloud-covered The sky, at last, sighs.

From a small, unknown company at the beginning, it has grown to become the number one enemy of major game companies, and now the major companies even have nothing to do, so they have to ask Jun Yue for help.

Yang Wei had no choice but to sigh in admiration.

This kid, what a fucking talent.

But whether he can have the last laugh, Yang Wei has no idea.

All he can do now is wait.

Waiting for Mr. Chu to hand over a perfect answer.

----

In the past month, Chen Guan has flourished in the game industry.

Accept publicity and interviews everywhere.

Carry forward his own theory that "page games are the ultimate affiliation of the game industry".

If the players looked at him at first, they all looked like a clown.

But a month has passed, and the major game manufacturers have lost their players' daily activities every day, but there is still no movement.

This can't help but make players think seriously.

Is what Chen Guan said really right?
Otherwise, why are so many big factories in China unmoved?
Today, he accepted another interview.

And it was an exclusive interview with the Ministry of Culture of Jiangnan Province.

The kind invitation from the provincial Ministry of Culture is enough to have a reputation.

However, there was another reason why Chen Guan had to go.

For this interview, Mr. Chu will also be there!
The Provincial Bureau of Culture has recently begun to take a fancy to the majestic development of the game industry.

Just inviting Chen Guan, this year's rising star, always feels a little bit meaningless.

He simply invited Mr. Chu, who had a great reputation last year, over.

The news spread like wildfire.

Immediately aroused the attention of a large number of players.

"Ghost! Are you going to be confrontational this time?"

"I know! The Holy Master is coming too? I must watch this live interview!"

"Where is the Holy Master here? Noah's Ark is about to sink, stinky brothers, now it's the world of "Journey"! In addition, is there any younger sister to play with? The world!"

"Newcomers don't understand, what does the Lord mean?"

"Sacred Lord is a name for a group of brainless fans to entertain themselves. The game industry is still full of rice circles. Is it disgusting? Your Holy Lord is so awesome, why can a simple web game developed and produced give you Holy Master?" The boss gets down?"

Before the live broadcast started, many players flooded into the live broadcast room for this exclusive interview.

There are players who support Junyue and traditional games.

There are also players who only started to understand the game field after the explosion of "Journey", they don't know much about Junyue's early career history, and only recognize "Journey".

The two sides started a war of words. Just the barrage flying all over the sky directly heated up the popularity of the live broadcast room to millions of people!

And soon, with the opening of the live broadcast room.

Chu Jun and Chen Guan appeared on the same stage, and there were hundreds of spectators in the audience.

The popularity has been raised higher and higher, and the hot searches about this live broadcast are also quietly rising.

It even attracted many other netizens who eat melons to pay attention to this matter.

If we talk about the initial interview sessions, they were relatively friendly.

The host asked some irrelevant topics, and then made jokes.

The atmosphere is not so rigid.

Then to the second half of the live interview.

A question from the host directly ignited the powder keg.

The atmosphere at the scene instantly became hot.

"Recently, I saw that Designer Chen's theory of 'the only theory of web games' has caused quite a stir on the Internet. Regarding this, Designer Chu, what do you think of web games?"

Chu Jun faced the camera with a calm expression, and said softly.

"Browse games are garbage, game residue."

One sentence directly changed the expression of Chen Guan who was sitting opposite Chu Jun!
The audience was also in an uproar!
The barrage in the live broadcast room was boiling like boiling water.

"Damn it! It's coming! It's the confrontation session that I love to watch again!!"

"Holy Master is Gang! Are you saying that page games are rubbish?"

"I like your speech, remember to close your private message."

"Browse games are garbage. If there is anything to say, dogs won't play."

"Then your traditional games are so awesome, why haven't you done web games? You can infiltrate traditional games like a sieve in a month and a half, and you still bark like a dog?"

"Yo yo, Xiaogui is in a hurry? Does your cultural background only support you in playing web games?"

"A stinky dog ​​who has played a few traditional games, what's so good about it?"

The photographer was also very good at it. Seeing the lively atmosphere at the scene, he hurriedly turned the camera to Chen Guan.

There was a glint of predation flashing in Chen Guan's eyes, and then he was taken back by the very good expression management, holding the microphone in his hand and laughing.

"If Designer Chu thinks web games are rubbish and dross, then dare to ask Designer Chu, where is the traditional game that you think can surpass web games?"

He didn't even need to argue with Chu Jun in a rage.

One sentence is enough.

You say that page games are garbage, that's fine, page games are garbage.

But where are the excellent games that can beat web games?
You took it out!

"Meaningless abuse is useless. Players only recognize the game. Designer Chu must not understand this truth?" Chen Guan shrugged relaxedly: "I really want to know about Designer Chu's new game. , How long will it take to develop it? So that I can see the world."

As soon as the words fell, I heard Chu Jun speak.

"10"

"Ten months?" Chen Guan whistled frivolously, and looked at the audience with a mocking face: "Or ten days?"

And as Chu Jun spoke again, the expressions of all the people present changed!

Chen Guan's pupils shrank even more, staring at Chu Jun in disbelief.

Because, Chu Jun said.

"9."
