Game Empire: Starting from Driving Crazy Players

Chapter 136 Fan Fan Fan!Come on, come on! ! !

Li Tong looked at everyone at the conference table with a flat expression, even though he, as the young master of the Gamer company, had not yet taken over the real power from his father.

but!
Facing all the directors at this moment, there is no panic or tension at all!
I saw him holding the controller.

Pointing to the fantasy world studio on the screen PPT, said:
"Huanshi, although it is just a newly established game studio, its game design ability has already reached the top level in China."

"It's even at a world-class level!"

The words were just finished.

There was a burst of laughter from the right side of the conference table.

"Haha, Xiaotong, although we haven't paid attention to the news of the game circle for a long time, the Gamer platform was established by us and your father back then. No matter how we don't pay attention, we understand this industry. You Don't lie to us."

"How can a newly established game studio have world-class game design capabilities?"

"Besides, right now, there are not many companies in China that dare to say that they have world-class game design capabilities?"

a small studio,

Can it be stronger than those game companies that have stood for many years?
How can it be? !
After hearing these words, many people at the conference table nodded in unison, apparently not believing Li Tong's words.

Under the big screen, Li Tong calmly said:

"Uncle Zhao, everyone."

"I know it might sound unreal, it's not real."

"But! After Gamer's long-term observation of Fantasy World, and the current strength of Fantasy World, it is indeed possible to have world-class game design capabilities."

"And the reason why Fantasy World can get such a high evaluation from us is entirely because of their chief designer, Zhang Yi!"

Speaking of it.

Li Tong pressed the controller in his hand, and Zhang Yi's photo suddenly appeared on the big screen.

Looks sunny and handsome.

"He is right, this Zhang Yi is indeed the most powerful and talented game designer in the history of the game circle!"

"Its ability is astounding!"

beside,

Li Tong's father, Li Liguo also said seriously.

"Yes."

"This Zhang Yi, first of all, a few months ago, with a small game called "Maolio", it quickly became popular all over the Internet."

"Later, I was invited by us to participate in the game exhibition, and even won the sales champion of the game exhibition with a crushing attitude of "Overcoming Difficulties with Bennett Foddy!"

"After creating Fantasy World, we designed and released the phenomenal game "League of Glory"."

"The three games are all of extremely high quality, and they are popular all over the Internet!"

"According to our rational analysis, if Zhang Yi is given enough time to grow, then he will definitely become No.1 in the domestic game circle in the future!"

"And Huanshi, under his leadership, will definitely become the number one game company in China!"

"That's why we called everyone here today because of a newly established game studio."

Li Tong spoke at a leisurely pace and pronounced his words clearly.

Step by step, introduce the current situation and achievements of Huanshi to the directors.

Beside him, seeing his son displaying such outstanding abilities, Li Liguo couldn't help but nodded, and there was more gratification in his eyes.

smiling, smiling,

He thought of his other son, Li Heng.

Li Heng likes to design various games since he was a child, and he doesn't like to participate in the company's affairs. Although his ability and talent in game design are not as amazing as Zhang Yi's, he still has perseverance and perseverance.

Two sons, one has sufficient ability to take over the company from him in the future.

A person who insists on his dream and never gives up, and now works in a studio with unlimited prospects like Fantasy World.

As their father, Li Liguo was quite relieved.

there,

Li Tong's voice continued:

"This decision, in essence, is a multiple-choice question between the future and the present."

"If we choose to support Fantasy World this time, then maybe in the future, Fantasy World will return our Gamer platform to a glory far beyond the present!"

"And if you choose a few major game companies, you will maintain the current status quo."

Having said that, the words have been made very clear.

None of you here are stupid.

Immediately, an old man with half-white hair frowned and said:

"Hearing it this way, I don't think Gamer seems to have enough reason to support Fantasy World."

"Although this fantasy world does have a very strong game design ability at present, it is only for the moment. Who can guess what the future holds?"

"Maybe when we announce our support for Fantasy World, they will run out of talent and not be able to design a good game?"

"Using this uncontrollable situation to block everything that Gamer has today, this deal is not safe enough in my opinion."

After the old man finished speaking, someone answered immediately.

"Old Qin is right!"

"Designing a game is not as simple as a hen laying an egg. Who can say what will happen in the future?"

"The Gamer platform is brilliant enough now, and it is a well-deserved leader in the game platform. Why should we gamble?"

As a businessman, the most important thing is profit.

It is unrealistic to want them to block their current rich net worth due to an uncontrollable factor.

however,
Everyone thinks differently.

When the man finished speaking, a middle-aged woman immediately mused:

"I actually think that the choice this time is indeed a bit difficult for Gamer."

"Thinking about changing the way of thinking, if Fantasy World really becomes the top existence in the domestic game circle, and we did not choose it this time, if it is supported by other platforms, then Gamer's current dominance will definitely face severe challenges in the future. challenge."

Elder Qin, who had just spoken, frowned and said:

"In the final analysis, the premise of all this is whether Fantasy World has the potential to become a top company in the game industry."

"Old Qin is right."

"If Huanshi really has this ability, then we can't take a gamble."

"How can this potential be measured and determined?"

In the fantasy world, ability is beyond doubt.

But the difficulty lies in the future. No one can say for sure!

Everyone whispered to each other,
Constantly expressing my own ideas and exchanging opinions, after all, this is a choice that will affect the company's future development and has to be done carefully.

Li Tong, who was standing under the big screen, looked at the crowd, and suddenly felt a strong feeling in his heart.

In the midst of
He felt very dimly,
A new era is about to begin. In this new era, the fantasy world is undoubtedly the focus and key of the audience.

The already almost fixed order and environment,

Both break and reorganize.

Even the leader of a game platform as strong as Gamer may gradually fall in the future if he does not make the right decision at this moment.

"Call Xiaoheng?"

suddenly,
Such an idea came to Li Tong's mind.

And just after this idea appeared, he immediately had new doubts.

Why, when Huanshi was jointly suppressed by major companies, Xiaoheng didn't make any contact with him?Is Huanshi really not panic about this at all?Where does their confidence come from?
"what happened?"

Next to him, Li Tong's father, Li Liguo, keenly caught the confusion in Li Tong's eyes.

came closer and asked.

"fine."

"I was just wondering what was going on with Xiaoheng and why this happened, but he didn't ask us for help."

Li Tong answered truthfully.

In fact, even if Li Heng called him, hoping that Gamer could help Huanshi, it was normal.

Since Li Heng joined Fantasy World,

The smile on his face was visible to the naked eye.

Compared with being bored in the room by myself in the past, there is no need for too much sunlight. Usually, when the family eats, I can often hear Li Heng's praise for the fantasy world.

Li Tong knew his younger brother very well.

It stands to reason,

When this kind of thing happens, he will definitely ask himself for help. This is his protection for the things he loves.

The more I thought about it, the more confused I became.

Li Tong took out his phone.

"I'll give Xiaoheng a call."

Li Liguo nodded, but did not object.

Li Tong was about to go out and talk to Li Heng outside, but he was stopped by Li Liguo within two steps.

"Let's play here, and just ask him in front of everyone, what kind of game studio is Fantasy World, and whether it is worthy of the support of our Gamer platform."

Speaking of it.

Li Tongcai suddenly noticed.

It turned out that many people at the conference table had stopped communicating and looked at him.

"Yeah, instead of us guessing here and there, it's better to let Xiao Heng, who is in the fantasy world, tell everyone."

"Although Xiaoheng is in the fantasy world, he is Gamer's second young master after all. Of course he won't cheat us."

"Let's talk to him."

Li Heng works in Fantasy World, and basically the top level of Gamer knows about it.

He concealed his identity. Although few people knew about it, it seemed that these directors were either related to Li Hengzhan or watched Li Heng grow up. Naturally, they couldn't hide it from them.

"it is good."

Li Tong did not refuse, and directly called Li Heng's WeChat number.

"toot toot"

phone,

Connected soon.

"What's wrong, I'm busy here!"

"If you have nothing to do, can I call you after I finish my work later?"

On the phone, Li Heng's voice was a little absent-minded.

It seems to be doing something while talking to the phone.

Li Tong was about to speak, when he heard Li Heng's anxious voice on the phone:

"Hey!!! Rice, rice, rice! Come on, rice!"

"Where's the food?! Damn!! Why did the food get mushy?! It's over, wow. What the hell is it sent!"

Li Tong:
"Cough cough."

Turning his head to look at the conference table, he saw that the directors were all a little speechless, so Li Tong, who was originally calm, couldn't help being embarrassed.

Then he coughed lightly and said:

"Xiaoheng, I came to you because I have something important to discuss. Can you find a quiet place?"

"We video call."

"video?"

Hearing what his brother said, Li Heng was taken aback for a moment.

Generally speaking, if his brother said that there was something important to discuss, it was definitely very important.

So, he put down the game in his hand and said:
"Okay, then wait for me."

The phone hangs up.

Li Heng found a quiet place in the studio, and then called his brother.

The video call is connected.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Li Heng asked in doubt.

Afterwards, I saw Li Tong in the screen operating with a blank face, and then, Li Heng saw a group of people in suits sitting at the conference table on the screen.

Li Heng: "."

???

The originally smiling face froze in an instant.

"Uncle Zhao, Grandpa Qin, Aunt Sun."

Good guy,
At a glance, they were all elders whom I was familiar with!
Li Hengren was just stupid!

Thinking of the words he was talking on the phone just now, playing games with his colleagues.
And most importantly,

What the hell, he's talking in the toilet now! ! !

With his toes in the bathroom, he directly digs out the three rooms and one living room in embarrassment.

"Forehead"

"I was just testing our newly designed game"

Li Heng explained.

As for Li Tong, although he really wanted to laugh now, he still recovered his calm expression and said:

"We are discussing the statement issued by several major game companies this morning to jointly suppress Fantasy World."

"Because this is a very important decision for the company."

"So in some cases, I want to ask you to know."

hear this,

Li Heng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Okay, you can ask whatever you want, as long as it doesn't involve the secrets of the fantasy world, I will definitely tell you."

Although he is the second young master of the Gamer company,

But it doesn't mean that they will tell everything they know about the fantasy world.

work and life,
still have to be distinguished.

After hearing Li Heng's words, Li Tong nodded, then looked at the people at the conference table, and said:

"If you have any questions, you can start asking."

The voice just fell.

A middle-aged man stood up from his seat, looked at Li Heng on the big screen, and asked with a smile:

"Xiaoheng, you just said that you are testing the new game made by your fantasy world. Is it the "Overcooked Kitchen"?"

"If possible, can you give us a brief introduction to this game?"

Li Heng thought for a while, then shook his head helplessly:
"this."

"The most I can do is to briefly share with you, because if we can disclose the details, we have to ask our boss."

Everyone immediately said:
"Just say it."

Li Heng nodded.

"Oh."

"Our new game is actually a game where two players make food together in the kitchen to meet the requirements of the guests."

"that's it?"

Everyone was taken aback after hearing this.

And the middle-aged man who just asked the question frowned and said:
"It sounds like the fun of this game is average, right?"

"At least, compared with other current games of Fantasy World, the setting is not particularly amazing, and it sounds so interesting and exciting."

"And more importantly, it is almost incomparable with "League of Glory". Could it be that your business strategy after Fantasy World is to return to this small game?"

All in one, the middle-aged man asked a bunch of questions.

Asking Li Heng directly was dumbfounded.

But after being stunned for a while, he immediately reacted and understood the purpose of Uncle Zhang asking these questions.

Li Heng replied with a smile:
"First of all, regarding our new game "Overcooked Kitchen", you have seen it just now. I happened to be playing it when I called just now, so I definitely have the right to speak when evaluating this game. Here I am I can assure you."

""Overcooked Kitchen" is definitely the most playable and interesting two-player game currently on the market!"

"As for what you said, it sounds like the subject matter is not very attractive. Hehe, you are right to say so, but the crux of the matter is that it depends on who is designing the game!"

"Produced by Fantasy World, it must be a high-quality product!"

Blowing, boasting.

Li Heng's words made everyone in the meeting room unbearably curious.

"That's crazy enough."

"Are you so confident in Huanshi's strength? Huanshi is really as powerful as you say?"

"Xiaoheng, we are all a family, don't fool us!"

What Li Heng said is right,

It's really a little too crazy.

"Damn! What did I lie to you for?"

"The game design ability of Fantasy World is obvious to all in the game circle! Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to work here, would I?"

"As for the future business strategy of our fantasy world, it will definitely not be based on small and medium-sized games, but the studio is just starting now, and there are not so many people. We have to take it step by step."

Li Heng is very clear about the purpose of these questions from the board of directors.

Nothing more than the potential for fantasy world,

Get to know.

And what he said was all true.

One side is his home, and the other side is the studio he loves, both are very important in his heart, so the best way is to
Two impartiality, the truth.

After hearing Li Heng's answer, everyone in the board of directors fell into deep thought.

Li Tong, on the other hand, looked at his younger brother and asked with a smile:

"This fantasy world is in crisis, why didn't you call me for help? This doesn't seem to be your style."

heard,

Li Heng chuckled.

"Brother, I really can't hide anything from you."

"Actually, I wanted to call you for help, but my boss refused."

Li Tong nodded.

The evaluation of Zhang Yi in my heart was three points higher.

Speaking of which,

The conference room fell into a brief silence.

Li Liguo suddenly said:
"Xiaoheng, can you send a copy of the game "Overcooked Kitchen" to Gamer? Don't worry, we will keep it secret."

"what?"

Li Heng was taken aback: "Dad, why do you want this?"

Li Liguo did not speak, an old man at the front of the conference table said:

"We want to see how far Fantasy World can make an ordinary game idea."

"This is also a manifestation of ability."

Whatever you think.

The game idea of ​​cooking in the kitchen sounds really ordinary.

There are many similar games on the market, but the fun and playability they show are very general.

If Fantasy World can use an ordinary game theme,

Make a great game.

Then Gamer naturally has more reason to believe in Fantasy World's ability.

"That's fine."

"I'm going to report to the boss now, I can't decide this matter alone."

"it is good."

Li Liguo nodded.

"Then I'll wait for your news."

finished,

The phone hangs up.

Li Heng left the bathroom with excitement and went straight to Zhang Yi's office.

"Old Zhang, good news!"

Walking in, Li Heng said:

"Gamer, my brother took the initiative to contact me, saying that he wants us to send them Overcooked Kitchen."

"It looks like there's something going on!"

Zhang Yi was reading the comments of players on the Internet at this time, frowning.

Hearing Li Heng's words, he said without raising his head:

"Okay, then you can send them a copy."

Seeing that Zhang Yi was so calm, Li Heng asked in confusion, "Why are you not happy at all?"

"Also, aren't you worried that they didn't do a good job of keeping secrets and accidentally leaked our game?"

Zhang Yi still didn't look up:

"He is a Gamer game platform, as for doing such a thing?"

Seeing Zhang Yi staring at the computer screen intently from beginning to end.

Li Heng approached.

"What are you looking at, so fascinated?"

"It's the comments of online players, it seems something is not quite right."

Zhang Yi pointed to the post in the forum and said:

"The speed of the development of public opinion is a bit too fast now, and the stance of netizens is completely biased towards the fantasy world, and on the other hand, Kaguya has been attacked by almost all players."

"This kind of attack has even affected Kaguya's company stock price."

Upon hearing this,
Li Heng is happy.

"Isn't that nice?"

"It's not been a day or two since the players have supported Fantasy World. As for Hui Ye, I think it's completely self-inflicted."

"Who told him to take the lead in targeting the fantasy world? It's normal to be the target of the players."

Zhang Yi immediately shook his head: "No."

"Even if Kaguya takes the lead, it shouldn't be like this."

"Although other game companies are also boycotted by players, the impact on their games is very limited, let alone affect the company's stock price."

"And so far, the new posts on the Internet are almost all intentionally shifting all the contradictions to Kaguya, so that Kaguya can attract the pressure of public opinion from all players."

This is not normal.

In other words, this does not conform to the logic of Dai Gaoyang's move.

as a wise man,

Before making a move, you must consider all the situations you may face after making a move.

And never let yourself lose too much.

But now, Kaguya's loss was a bit too great.

"You mean, someone is deliberately guiding public opinion, pushing Kaguya out, and bearing all the pressure of public opinion?"

"Hmm." Zhang Yi nodded.

Li Heng immediately asked:

"who is it?"

Zhang Yi took a long breath and shook his head.

In fact, he has a name in mind.
but.
It's outrageous!

"Hey, no matter who it is, Gamer is still waiting for my reply, so I'll send them "Overcooked Kitchen"!"

Li Heng suddenly remembered Gamer's side, his father and a bunch of directors were still waiting for a reply, so he said quickly.

Zhang Yi nodded.

"Ah."
