Chapter 304 Global Sale
As a first-line game media in China, Game Star still has a lot of users, especially when other game websites are emphatically introducing content related to Red Dead Redemption, Game Star released this interview, focusing on the topic of domestic stand-alone above.

It immediately attracted countless players to discuss.

"The article is too long to be bothered to read, but Mr. Chu is awesome!"

"That's right, I just make games. At the beginning, I also thought about what an amazing game I could make, but dreams are not as good as steamed buns. In the end, I still lost to reality and went to a A small domestic factory is engaged in skin-changing mobile games.”

"It's not a few years ago now. Any technology that can't keep up is fake. These manufacturers can make money lying down, who wants to make money standing up?"

"Don't talk about Mr. Chu, we all understand the meaning, Red Dead Redemption bought it! DNF's Qingming set, I have 6 trumpets to fill up sincerity."

"Buy, buy, buy, or not? If you don't buy it, you're human? If you don't play DNF, I'll go to Chick to find cheaters and report a few more, so that you can get more sales."

"Upstairs, you are really a genius! But are you sure you don't spend money, can you report cheats?"

"It's all because Tianhe Network insists on making reports that have a limited box. Now that it's okay, the team in the eating chicken encounters a cheat, and the teammates don't want to eat the chicken. They just drive over and rush over, just want to touch the cheat. Then report and get the box."

"Pass Meow's Time at Portia is very fun. The steam platform has already opened EA, but it's so uncomfortable not being able to form a team. I still want to play with female tickets."

At the beginning, the wind direction of the players was quite normal, until a group of people named Liu Scholar appeared.

"No, did you go to the wrong place? This is an article from Red Dead Redemption, what are you talking about? Could it be that I am the only one who pays attention to the horse in Red Dead Redemption, and if it dies, is it really dead? Speaking of horses, I I suddenly thought of the white dragon horse in Journey to the West. At the beginning of next year, Journey to the West co-produced by China and the United States will be officially launched. I will continue to play Monkey King Sun Wukong. I will use the art of Monkey King to create a positive image with both style and style. Blooming and promoting Chinese culture, I hope everyone will pay more attention to it.”

"No, it's too much, this meme is played every day, every day, are you interesting? It's really interesting (dog head)"

The original article comment, because of the appearance of a group of six scholars, the comment area directly became a repeater scene.

Of course, more players are just playing tricks below. The publicity about Red Dead Redemption has reached its peak, including TV commercials in areas such as the United States, square screens, and subway advertisements. You can see Red Dead Redemption. Game posters and trailers.

The publicity funds for the entire project have reached 1 million, which is basically the same as the development funds.

At the same time, in addition, there are no powerful masterpieces during this period of time, including P Club Hearts of Iron, and THQ's home defense line, which are not opponents worth mentioning.

Paradise’s Iron Ambitions is not bad. After all, as a relatively unpopular strategy game, it does not conflict with Red Dead Redemption. But after changing the children’s game business, THQ’s homeland defense line, which wants to enter large-scale games, is like a sick cat meeting a tiger.

In March alone, EA and Tianhe Network invested more than 7000 million U.S. dollars in promotional expenses, and the trailer on YouTube has also been viewed more than [-] million times.

Of course, the results obtained at such a price are also very terrifying. The two platforms of Microsoft and Sony combined, and the pre-sale sales reached 210 million copies.

A number that excites everyone. With this number of pre-sale sales, basically everyone has already decided on one thing.

It is impossible for Red Dead Redemption to make Tianhe Network lose money, but it will only raise the question of how much Tianhe Network can earn.

Leaving aside the share with EA and the host platform, such pre-sale sales have even made Red Dead Redemption almost pay back.

This is a 3A game. Just like a big-budget commercial movie, a powerful commercial movie can reap several times the cost, or even ten times the profit; of course, if it fails, the entire company's capital chain may be broken.

Accompanied by the expectations of the players, the time is getting closer and closer. Finally, on April NO.11, as the only masterpiece of that month, "Red Dead Redemption" was officially launched globally and landed on Sony and Microsoft at the same time. dual platform.

Including landmark buildings such as Los Angeles, London, Paris, and Shanghai in China, a Shengda Red Dead Redemption first sale ceremony was held.

The entire venue was decorated as a scene in the game, and even after the venue applied for permission from the local government, a simple house in the western United States of the last century was built.

With the beginning of this carnival belonging to Red Dead Redemption players, the No.1 player who successfully obtained the game has appeared.

A crazy American Texas player, as early as the previous day when gamestop closed, he directly took out the simple tent he carried with him, and then spent the night there directly, and then successfully got the wilderness he wanted Daredevil.

Of course, although he was the first to get it, he was not the first player to enter the game.

According to statistics, the first player to enter the game and the player who achieved the achievement of entering the game at the same time was a player from Huaxia.

"Do you think Red Dead Redemption's first-day sales can break the record set by Halo?" Chu He and Charles were in the lounge at the EA headquarters in Redwood City, following the latest situation of Red Dead Redemption.

Previously, Microsoft's halo created an incredible data, and the sales volume in the first month reached 510 million, which is almost an exaggerated data.

Counting the pre-sale sales in the early stage, the sales volume on the first day reached an astonishing 310 million.

"There is nothing comparable." Chu He shook his head and said,

The sales of Microsoft's Halo series exceeded 300 million on the first day, reaching a terrifying figure.

But this is an additional bonus. The IP of Halo and the excellent previous work make Halo inherently stronger than other Red Dead Redemption.

But also as a game exclusive to the Microsoft platform, Halo will not be sold on the Sony platform.

So these are two games that cannot be compared at all. Halo has the advantage of well-known IP, while Red Dead has the advantage of one more platform. How can they compare?
"Being able to reach a cooperation with Tianhe Network, I think this is one of the best decisions I have made since I worked at EA." Charles said with a smile.

There is no doubt that after today, Charles believes that EA's stock will have a good trend in the stock market.

As a company whose gaming business is well-known, the help of a wildly successful AAA game is obvious.

"I heard that you developed two 3A masterpieces at the same time?" Chu He looked at Charles and asked.

"Yes, Mass Effect and the Star Wars series." Charles nodded: "EA needs a 3A game of its own."

"I wish you success." Chuhe said with a smile.

"We will succeed, just like Red Dead Redemption." Charles had a smile on his face.

Of course, there was another sentence in his heart that he didn't say: he would be even more successful than Red Dead Redemption.

After all, EA is much better than Red Dead Redemption in terms of investment and background.

Flying dragon riding a face, how to lose?
