Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 662 Mobile game plan; new mode of world game competition and live party

[Xingkong Computer], once released, caused quite a stir all over the world.

On the day of the release, there were long queues at brand stores in many overseas countries, and it was obvious that consumers were very enthusiastic.

And in the country, the same is true.

This reminded Tian Moyun of the previous life when a certain fruit mobile phone was released on Earth, and it was just as lively.

Oh no, it seems that it is not as good as it is now, because [Thunder Group] has done very well all over the world, and invested a lot of money, which is far better than fruits.

"Should there be any movement from the Big Three?"

Tian Moyun frowned slightly. According to his estimation, the Big Three must have countermeasures for this.

[Starry Sky Technology] released 64-bit computers, which doesn’t seem to be too surprising, because as early as last year, it released the [Thunder 64 Game Console] with the same 2-bit architecture.

In Tian Moyun's mind, when [Xingkong Computer 3rd Generation] is officially released, the Big Three will definitely make some moves.

But now it seems...their response is still not timely enough, and I don't know if it is full of self-confidence, or there is no countermeasure at all.

"Forget it, since you are willing to procrastinate, then continue to procrastinate."

Tian Moyun didn't care about them.

The release of [Starry Computer 3rd Generation] will further erode the market share of the Big Three. If they really want to delay it until the release of "League of Legends" next year...that's up to them.

Just be happy.

……

While browsing Weibo, Tian Moyun also saw a message.

The total sales volume of the game "Last Hope" reached 7 copies in July, and the creators made a net profit of more than 57 million yuan, directly upgrading to "signing level 200".

And its creator "Huoqi", with this game, has become the most popular genius creator on the entire platform and has attracted much attention.

The Weibo thank you letter of "Huo Qi" is very interesting, and it clarifies his miserable identity of "going home to inherit billions of dollars if he doesn't work hard", and has been liked by many netizens.

The game's sales are so hot, maybe it has something to do with his thank you letter on Weibo.

After all, people are so weird, and the games they make may be even weirder. Some netizens who are too busy to panic may still be interested in playing it.

In addition, the game "The Last Hope" is really good, with a total of 70 million copies sold, but the score remains at 9.2.

This sales volume, this score, is enough to make this game a masterpiece of [Mini Game Platform], and its influence even surpasses Tian Moyun's "To the Moon".

“[Mini game platform] is still developing a bit slowly.”

Tian Moyun frowned slightly.

He originally thought about making one or two small game masterpieces by himself, attracting a wave of traffic, attracting some colleagues in the game circle to settle in, and then quickly build this platform, and become the current most popular mobile game. software.

But now it seems that this expectation is still a bit high.

[Small game platform] The construction speed is not slow, but it has encountered a development bottleneck.

Even though Tian Moyun allowed [Starry Sky Technology] to divert a lot of resources, the development of [Mini Game Platform] is still too slow, far behind businesses like [Starry Sky Reading] and [Starry Sky Music].

It is almost impossible to expect the [Mini Game Platform] to become the top software on the mobile terminal in a short period of time.

The upper limit of this software is lower than Tian Moyun imagined.

The speed of the development period is so slow. Once there is no resource tilt, it will either stagnate or decline, which is not ideal.

"Invest a little more money and try."

Tian Moyun thought about it, and planned to allocate another [-] million yuan to the past. If it still doesn't work, he can only let it fend for itself.

[Small game platform] The development speed is slower than expected, so it is time to consider starting a real "mobile game plan".

"It still needs to be prepared."

Tian Moyun thought to himself.

Originally, he wanted to quickly develop [Small Game Platform] as a trump card of [Starry Sky OS] and [Dragon Map OS], to restrain the mobile system plans of the Big Three.

But now it was developing so slowly, Tian Moyun couldn't afford to waste time.

It's time to start the era of real mobile games.

As long as this wave is completed, the moat of the ecological link of the system can be consolidated, so that its own system has unrivaled competitiveness.

In this way, [Starry Sky OS] and [Longtu OS] may be able to sit back and relax.

As for the mobile system plans of the Big Three, it is more appropriate to "die".

The whole world only needs two mobile systems. If there is another one, it will not only confuse consumers, but also increase the cost of software developers.

There is really no need for this.

Sometimes, Tian Moyun felt that he was doing good deeds.

He has worked hard to build two system platforms, maintain the two ecological environments conscientiously, bring portability to consumers all over the world, and let everyone feel the charm of technology.

But unfortunately, there are always some villains who insist on singing against him.

Take the international Big Three as an example.

Why bother to secretly develop a self-developed mobile system without using a free and easy-to-use system?
Everyone lives in peace and stability, and engages in scientific research in harmony, isn't it delicious?

what!
You asked Tian Moyun why he wanted to develop [Longtu OS: PC] to fight against the Big Three. Didn’t it mean that two systems would be enough?

Well……

Well, let's think about it from a different angle.

What is it that promotes technological progress?

Competition, the fiercer the competition, the faster the technological development, everyone knows it.

So, when there are already two major PC systems on the market, wouldn’t it be good to have another [Longtu OS: PC]?

"Also, can you please turn off the system prompt? It's so annoying."

Tian Moyun couldn't help filing a nuisance complaint to [Little Ding Dong].

On the virtual interface of the system in my mind, the "shameless +1" and "double standard +1" jump around, which is very annoying.

……

8 month 5 day.

[Starry Sky Technology Company] made a high-profile announcement about the upcoming [World Game Competition] on a global scale.

The venue is the indoor gymnasium in the imperial capital, which can normally accommodate [-] to [-] spectators, which is enough to start this competition that can cause a sensation in the world game circle.

This is the first time in history that there is a global game competition.

"This is [Thunder Group], and it would be impossible for any other peers to make such a large-scale event."

Someone lamented: "Except for "Warcraft" and "Counter-Strike", there is no third game in the world that can be so lively, even those so-called console masterpieces."

Many conditions are required to hold this kind of world competition, and it is impossible to do it without any of the key conditions.

Looking at the whole world, only [Thunder Group] has this ability.

There are quite a few well-known game companies overseas, but no matter whether it is an online game company or a console game company, it is difficult for them to achieve such a high appeal and cohesion, and there is a big gap.

And online.

Netizens discussed more, not just the game competition, but also the issue of tickets.

Many netizens who have participated in domestic game competitions, they all like this kind of atmosphere very much, and if the domestic competition is turned into a world competition, the atmosphere in the arena will definitely be more lively.

"I don't know how to buy a ticket? There are only [-] to [-] votes. I hope I can get one."

"[-] to [-] votes are very few? Even if it's the tickets for the superstar's concert, it's probably at this level. Can the game competition be more lively than the superstar's concert?"

"That may not be the case. It can be seen from the previous domestic competitions that many people like to go to the scene to watch the competition. In the world competition... the thirteen mainstream powers will participate."

"Why do you want to host the [World Game Competition] in the Great Xia Kingdom? Is it because our Lighthouse Country is not worthy?"

"[Thunder Group] is an enterprise of the Great Xia Kingdom, so it's normal for them to hold it in their own country. Anyway, I don't think there is anything wrong with it. I really want to take a trip to the Great Xia Kingdom."

"The distance between our Bear Kingdom and Great Xia Kingdom is very far. If you go to the scene, the round trip fare will be very expensive. I hope the ticket price will not be too expensive."

"Why do you have to go to the scene? Isn't it good to watch the webcast?"

"The online live broadcast has no atmosphere. It is better to watch the game live. Of course, it also depends on the individual's situation."

Overseas players are more concerned about this matter. Some players with good financial resources also have the idea of ​​going to watch the game live, even though the distance is very far away.

……

8 month 7 day.

[Star Technology Company] entrusted [Star Ticket Network] to launch a ticket sales plan around the world.

The total number of votes is 7.8, of which 10000 are reserved domestically, and the remaining 6.9 votes are reserved for other countries.

Among them, among the 12 mainstream powers, the Beacon Country, the Bear Country, and the Big Diao Country each get 7000 votes, and the remaining 9 countries get 3000 votes each.

The remaining 20000 tickets are free tickets, and Internet users from any country can snap up these tickets.

Naturally, this distribution method cannot satisfy everyone.

The players on the Great Xia Kingdom's side felt that as the "organizer", they only got 10000 votes, which was a bit short.

Players from Lighthouse Country, Bear Country, and Big Eagle Country are also questioning the differential treatment.

As for the other 9 countries, and those countries that were not nominated at all, there were no doubts. They all knew the situation on their side.

The on-site tickets for the [World Game Competition] can only be seen in the Great Xia Kingdom.

Buying tickets first, then buying round-trip air tickets, and a series of expenses such as meals and hotels after arriving in Daxia Kingdom, as well as time and energy... It's a bit frustrating.

Not all players are local tyrants with strong financial resources, and not all rich players want to travel thousands of miles to toss.

after all--

Going to the scene is just to feel the atmosphere.

It's not that you can't feel such an atmosphere without going to the scene, and there is also a global live broadcast.

Among the 1000 wealthy players, not many of them are willing to make a fuss...

Therefore, [Thunder Game Company] issued ticket quotas to Great Xia Kingdom, Lighthouse Country, Bear Country, and Great Eagle Country, and 9 tickets to the remaining 3000 mainstream powers, but not to these countries... This is very reasonable .

If I send it to them, it may not be able to sell it.

Rather than embarrassing them at that time, it would be more appropriate not to give them this treatment in the first place, and put it directly into the "free ticket", whoever wants to buy it.

……

"There is no way to protest. There are only so many votes in total. I can't make them out of thin air, can I?"

Tian Moyun spread his hands.

"..."

Zhou Yunteng was speechless.

This is true, [Didu Gymnasium] can accommodate a total of 7.8 spectators. If it is increased, it will damage the actual experience of the spectators and affect the goodwill.

In order to make more money, it is not possible to take risks with the goodwill accumulated through hard work, right?
Which is more important, Zhou Yunteng knows very well.

"However, if they are not satisfied, I can also provide you with a good solution to this problem."

Tian Moyun changed the subject and said: "Game competitions are different from concerts. If you really want to feel this kind of atmosphere, you don't have to go to the scene. If many people watch the live broadcast together, you should be able to achieve similar effects. Is that right? wrong?"

"Yes."

Zhou Yunteng nodded, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly thought of a possibility.

"It seems that you have thought of it."

Tian Moyun smiled: "We can hold live gatherings in many countries around the world at the same time as [Emperor Capital Gymnasium]. Many overseas countries have vast land and sparse population, and there are many suitable places to hold live gatherings. We use a super large The screen broadcasts it for everyone, let them stay together to chat and watch the drama... Ah no, chatting and watching the game, isn't that good?"

"Actually, this is really not much different from the live scene, because even if it is a live scene, it has to be watched through a super-large screen. You can neither interact with the stage nor see the real players."

This wave.

It can be said to be "cloud scene".

Anyway, it’s all about feeling the atmosphere, what’s the difference?
Do you have to go to the game site to feel the atmosphere?

I'm afraid not!

Take the previous [World Sports Competition] as an example. A group of people sat in the living room watching TV. Isn’t the atmosphere pretty good?
Now, it is tantamount to further expanding this model to provide everyone with a better atmosphere in the form of large gatherings.

Moreover, [Thunder Group] can provide a very clear super-large screen, and the experience will not lose to the scene, and may even be better.

"Then how should the tickets for this kind of live broadcast be charged?"

Zhou Yunteng asked a question.

This question is not asking how much money to charge, but what is the core of holding it.

Is it to make money through this live broadcast?Or simply provide a solution?
"According to the local situation, it is enough to mean it."

Tian Moyun waved his hand and said casually: "The competition will be held for several days, the price of the ticket... 10 dollars is enough."

"Instead of relying on this stuff to make money and being scolded by the whole world for being ugly, it's better to put more thought into the advertisement, decorate the scene well, and sell advertisements can also make a lot of money."

"In addition, contact more mainstream and more cost-effective alcohol brands to supply them, and go to the site to sell some alcohol and beverages at normal prices to add to the fun."

"In this way, for only $10, you can get the opportunity to have a party where you can experience the liveliness of the game, feel the lively atmosphere, and have ordinary-priced drinks. Isn't it delicious?"

"Actually, I don't expect this thing to make money."

"Let's not say it's a live broadcast, even if it's the [Didu Gymnasium] game scene, I don't expect to make money."

"As you know, the significance and derivative value of [World Game Competition] far exceeds the value of the competition by thousands of times."

"Which is more important, you know it in your heart."

Zhou Yunteng nodded, he really knew it.

If he wasn't the vice president of [Starry Sky Technology], if he was just a melon eater, he might think that Tian Moyun wanted to earn some ticket money, or that he was a fool with a lot of money just for fun.

But standing in this position, and often listening to Tian Moyun explain the macro strategy, Zhou Yunteng is very clear about the true meaning of "World Game Competition".

It's not about ticket money, nor about promoting the game, but about using this opportunity to establish authority for [Starry Sky Technology Company] in the game circle, so as to further increase the market share of [Starry Sky Computer], and... next year's strategic level Super masterpiece - "League of Legends"!
As long as [Xingkong Technology Company] passes this global competition, it will be recognized as an authority by players around the world.

Then, you can use this authority to do many things.

When "League of Legends" is released next year, it will directly guide players around the world to experience it, and then lead to a second more exciting world competition.

Not only that, there are more benefits and schemes.

For example, using "League of Legends" to suppress the international giants, let this game become the vanguard of [Starry Sky Computer], conquering cities and conquering the world.

Compared with these future resources worth tens of billions, hundreds of billions, and hundreds of billions, who cares about the ticket price?
……

Taking advantage of the [World Game Competition] live ticket sales time has not yet started.

Zhou Yunteng hurriedly led people to hold a press conference to discuss the plan for the "live party".

Tian Moyun just provided them with a feasible idea.

This plan sounds simple, but if it is to be successfully held in many countries in the world, a more detailed and complete plan is required.

As the saying goes, if the boss says something, the subordinates will break their legs, which is probably what it means.

Tian Moyun only needs to provide a feasible idea, and then Zhou Yunteng and others conduct in-depth research based on this idea, and make a complete plan within the shortest possible time.

Because the time for on-site ticket sales is approaching.

If you wait until the on-site tickets are on sale before launching this plan, it will definitely make many players around the world scold their mothers angrily.

After all, not everyone is willing to travel thousands of miles to the Imperial Capital to watch the game. If there is such a "live broadcast party", they may prefer to stay in China to watch the game instead of going abroad.

Instead of launching a "remedial" plan at that time, it is better to provide players with two choices in advance.

This will make it appear more humane, and let players around the world have a better impression of the organizer [Xingkong Technology Company].

Let them clearly feel that [Xing Kong Technology Company] is sincerely considering the players, not just making money for themselves.

How many people would not like such a company?

……

then.

8 month 8 number.

The day before the on-site tickets went on sale, [Star Technology Company] pushed the news around the world.

It clearly stated: "Considering the appeal of a large number of players around the world who are unwilling to go abroad and want to watch the game with more like-minded friends, we urgently discussed a reasonable solution."

This plan is indeed very reasonable.

When this news appeared in front of overseas netizens, social forums became very lively.

"It's a really great idea, and when I see this solution, I really want to give the idea maker a hug."

"According to the organizer's statement, you can get the experience of watching a movie on a super-large screen party for only 10 dollars, and it is a multi-day competition, which is more interesting than watching a movie."

"How about $10? It's just for a meal. I think it's very worthwhile. If the distance is not far away, I'm willing to pay $10 to watch the live broadcast."

"This is an exclusive party for players, maybe I can meet new friends at the party, and I really like watching the live broadcast on a big screen, which is more comfortable than watching it on a computer."

"At first, I was a little dissatisfied with the organizers, because they actually held it in the Great Xia Kingdom instead of our Great Eagle Kingdom, but now, I think they really consider the players."

"Yeah, the price of 10 US dollars per person, in fact, can't make money, it's just for fun. If this is not a responsible company, they don't need to cause trouble for themselves."

"This is really good news, because going abroad is a very troublesome thing. It is not only a matter of money, but also a lot of documents in advance. There is no time at all. If you are in China, it will be fine."

"I'm looking forward to sharing this news with many friends and going to experience this 10-dollar party with everyone."

"In other words, if conditions permit, we may also be able to set up such a gathering place ourselves."

"Of course, but the organizers clearly stated that they do not recommend doing so, because there will be many safety issues that cannot be guaranteed, such as fire, personal safety and the like."

"So, it's better to host the live broadcast gathering in person, because they will provide a lot of guarantees."

"I'm even more curious...the live party is out, will anyone go to the game site? After all, it's such a long distance, can the tickets for the game site still be sold?"

……

After the proposal of live broadcasting the gathering, will it affect the on-site ticket sales of [Didu Stadium]?
Those who are curious about this question are not only these players, but also some netizens who eat melons in other fields.

There are also some so-called experts who came forward and told everyone in seemingly professional words: "[Xingkong Technology Company]'s handling measures this time are obviously sacrificing interests for the sake of goodwill. It is likely to cause a large number of players who wanted to go abroad to watch the game to give up this idea, and it may even cause the game site to not even have 7.8 spectators."

It also listed a lot of decent explanations, which made netizens feel confused.

Some people even feel touched.

A world-class giant company like [Xing Kong Technology Company] would actually make such a "self-sacrifice" for the players' feelings. Is there any reason not to support such a company?
Such views quickly spread on the Internet and gradually became very popular.

……

"The overseas sand sculpture netizens... always feel that their thinking is a bit strange."

When Tian Moyun saw this related news, his expression was a little strange.

You make me so great as an "idea provider", I am a little embarrassed myself.
