Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 692 The planning of the new game "Three Kingdoms"; the old four are about to make a move

The hot sales of "Dragon Babu" continued, and gradually, it began to create a popular craze.

It gives people the feeling that if you don't read it, you are outdated.

Even many people who were not interested at first couldn't help but buy it when they heard people talking about it, hoping to keep up with this trend.

After all, in this information-rich Internet age, it is very important to keep up with the trend.

""Dragon Babu" is really popular."

The people who eat melons are all sighing.

Rarely has a book become as popular as it is now.

A big name in the Internet industry has answered this post in a "forced" way, and briefly talked about his understanding of this matter.

According to this internet guru, the reason why "Dragon Babu" became popular is not because of how good the book is, but because its author is Tian Moyun. brought results.

In other words-

"Dragon Babu" is so popular because of the marketing results of online and offline channels + Tian Moyun's reputation, not because of the good quality of the book.

This big guy’s opinion is simple: the ceiling of the traditional novel market is right here, no matter how good your writing is, it’s impossible to be as popular as banknotes, after all, it’s impossible to break through the upper limit, "Dragon Babu" The ability to break the ceiling does not lie in how good the book is, but in the fact that the person who wrote the book is too good.

This makes sense.

Many wise netizens praised it one after another.

But it also annoyed many people who like "Tian Long Ba Bu", thinking that he was mocking him, so he began to greet him kindly in the comment area, and then clicked the report, the reason was pornography.

"You misunderstood, I didn't mean that."

The Internet celebrity provoked public outrage, and he did not dare to lose his temper. He was not afraid of being misunderstood by these people, or by a netizen surnamed Tian, ​​so he quickly explained:
"I didn't say that this book is useless, please don't take it out of context, okay?"

"I just want to talk about the status quo of the traditional novel industry. It doesn't mean that "Dragon and Babu" is popular, but it means that the quality of the novel can become popular...Phenomenal works have never been reproducible."

"So, those who want to enter traditional novels should quickly give up this idea. If you really want to write novels, isn't it good for online novels?"

……

In short, it was very lively.

Tian Moyun didn't pay attention to these things, he didn't have any internet addiction.

At this moment, he is talking with Su Qiong about the new game "Three Kingdoms".

"The characters and plot of "Three Kingdoms" will be done according to the first 60 words of the novel, and then the content will be slowly filled in later, and the mode of updating DLC ​​will be adopted slowly."

Tian Moyun said slowly: "This can continuously bring readers/players a sense of freshness, and let them gradually develop the habit of playing, so that they won't be too lazy to play again after playing a few times... Readers can play games To cultivate habits, communicate, form teams, and confront other readers, and slowly form a local social context in this way... This is the operation method I conceived."

"not bad."

Su Qiong nodded slightly.

The two chatted a lot about new game ideas.

To be honest, "Three Kingdoms" is not easy to do.

Because "Jianghu Killer" is already on the market, and "Jianghu Killer" has been continuously updated, the industry's reputation is getting better and better, and it can be called an unshakable top leader in this category.

"Three Kingdoms Killing" cannot completely follow the old path of "Jianghu Killing".

That might work, but it's a very insincere thing to do.

If "Three Kingdoms" is really made into a skin-changing mobile game, I am afraid that readers will not be willing to spend money, right?

And it's easy to give the colleagues a bad head... Tian Moyun has changed his skin, so they should follow suit, shouldn't it be natural?

It is not impossible to make similar games, but it must be done well.

It must be clearly distinguished from the originator of the mountain. It can give people a sense of familiarity, but it can't make people feel at a glance... Isn't this so-and-so?
The management of "Jianghusha" is getting better and better, which has caused many problems for "Three Kingdoms".

"I think--"

Su Qiong frowned and thought: "The positioning of "Three Kingdoms" is aimed at the reader group. It does not have to be compared with "Jianghu Killing". It is enough to restore a relatively real IP-adapted game..."

"In terms of gameplay, according to what you said, weaken some complicated settings, try to make it as simple as possible, and set the game time a little shorter... It doesn't have to be more fun than "Jianghu Killing", as long as this game can Wouldn’t it be enough to satisfy the readers of the original book?”

Tian Moyun was startled.

It seems that this is indeed the case, it seems that I have fallen into a blind spot.

……

Both versions of Monument Valley are also out of development.

Tian Moyun wanted to put it on the shelves directly, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was unnecessary. He simply kept it as a reserve resource just like "Defending the Carrot", and put it on the shelves when needed in the future.

As for when it is necessary...

Then it depends on the meaning of those giant companies on the other side of the ocean.

Perhaps, the other party will not compete with him in the mobile game market. Perhaps, it is not very useful for him to reserve two mobile games, but at least it can also serve as a marketing gimmick.

Isn't it good to buy a mobile phone and get free classic games?

……

"What should we do next?"

Tian Moyun thought for a while, opened the computer file, and started to "create" the novel.

There are many manuscripts of "The Legend of Heroes of the Three Kingdoms", and it will not be too late to write again next month.

On the other hand, Tian Moyun wanted to finish writing "Dragon Babu" as soon as possible.

There are a total of five chapters, one has been written before, and now the other four are finished, and then the preparations for film and television drama adaptations and game adaptations can begin.

With his coding efficiency, if there is nothing else to do, he can write about three... twenty thousand words a day.

You can't show too much diligence, otherwise little Su Qiong will definitely look at him with weird eyes again.

Even if you only write 60 words a day, [-] words a month, and finish the rest of the manuscript in two months, and then just continue to write "Three Kingdoms Heroes"...

"Is this the pinnacle of time management masters—a natural skill?"

Tian Moyun was amazed.

He had never planned it this way, but it happened to be very coincidental.

After "Dragon Babu" was finished, the manuscripts of "Three Kingdoms Heroes" also ran out, and then I continued to write another book.

By the time he copied a part of "The Legend of the Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" and kept it as a manuscript, almost all the new games were finished, and then he was busy with these things...

"When did I work so hard?"

Tian Moyun was amazed again.

He was originally a very salty person, but recently he has been very diligent.

"Maybe it's because I learned to cherish the time of struggle?"

Tian Moyun seemed to have thought of something, and the joy in his heart was somewhat diluted.

He almost forgot.

I am different from ordinary people.

Ordinary people need to work hard every day for their livelihood, career, ideals, and dreams. Their hearts are full of desire and expectation for the future, and they seem to be full of energy every day.

But what about Tian Moyun?
At a young age, he has a huge enterprise and endless wealth. He has reached the highest point in the game circle, literature circle, business circle, technology circle... all of them.

Go further up...there is almost no way.

From now to the future, every bit of sense of accomplishment is very precious to him, because when he really reaches the point where he can’t make progress, it’s hard to have this kind of fighting spirit that “young people should have” .

"It's really sad."

Tian Moyun sighed.

Ding!
Shameless +1!

……

Just when Tian Moyun thought that life would return to normal in the future, an accident happened.

2 month 15 day.

The seven major groups that had been silent for a long time on the other side of the ocean finally took action.

The first to make the move were the four old players in the international game industry. They directly purchased all the top publicity resources in the world to promote the upcoming conference.

As soon as this news came out, it immediately caused a shock in the international game circle.

"Oh, Omega, have you finally made a move? If you don't make a move, I will forget your existence."

"I always thought that the old four were going to give up the game market, but I didn't expect that the one who was silent was holding back a big move."

"What? The fourth family is still alive?"

"Upstairs... the irony is well said. The fourth family has been silent, completely disregarding the life and death of us old players. I thought they were going to file for bankruptcy."

"New game? It should be a new game console. I don't know what cards the old four have to deal with the powerful [Thunder Game] from the other side of the ocean?"

"It must be a new game console. The old game console has been beaten by [Thunder 2] in all directions. You must come up with a new game console."

"I'm curious if anyone will really support the old four's game consoles? What happened to the last generation? There are not many games to play at all, and maybe they will have to be cheated this time."

"That can't be helped, the support should still be supported. If there is only [Thunder Game] left in the market, it will not be a good thing."

"Support whoever you love, anyway, I won't be the first to support."

"Those loyal old fans of the old four and patriotic fans who are not short of money should all support a wave. Let's just wait and see."

"The game console itself is for playing games. If the old four's games are exciting and fun, I don't mind buying them and giving them a try, but if they are mediocre, then forget it. Feelings can't be eaten."

"To be honest, this time, for the old four, they should be betting their lives. Once the new game console fails...you understand."

"If two game consoles fail one after another, even the old four may not be able to survive."

"It is said that the big three have made their moves this time. The press conference should be very interesting. I am more looking forward to what [Thunder Games] from the other side of the ocean will think?"

……

The news was conveyed to Tian Moyun immediately.

"Are you finally going to make a move?"

When Tian Moyun learned of this, he was immersed in typing.

After finally finishing a chapter of the manuscript, I had time to read the news, and then I saw a lot of news about the new developments of the old four.

"Have you found any clues?"

Tian Moyun sent a message to ask.

It should be night on the other party's side, but the reply was very fast. It seems that they are still working overtime: "No, the old four are very cautious this time. They have not cooperated with third-party companies. The hardware is provided by the Big Three. The game lineup On the other hand, the old four will do it all by themselves, I tried to find a third-party game company to join, but was rejected."

The overseas person in charge is also interesting.

In order to steal a lot of software and hardware information from the old four family, Zeng secretly controlled an international game company, and then pretended to join the old four family.

It's a pity that the old four were too cautious this time. In order to prevent the leak of information, they didn't cooperate with any third party at all, and did everything by themselves.

"It seems that I plan to put all my eggs in one basket."

Tian Moyun vaguely guessed the thoughts of the fourth family. In Daxia's words, this is a desperate battle.

Of course, if it's just the old four, they probably don't have the courage, and there are probably the instigation of the Big Three behind them, with the intention of using them to snipe and delay time.

……

Lu Wenbo also soon learned about it.

He soon came to Tian Moyun's office and delivered a document: "Here are some clues we obtained overseas. I think it should be useful to you."

clue?

Tian Moyun flipped through it casually, and found that it was a list of external purchases from the Big Three, and there were a few things in it that seemed ordinary, but actually had profound meaning.

5.5-inch LCD screen, 4000 mAh lithium battery, wireless signal transceiver components, micro switch, speaker, vibration motor, 32G storage particles...

If this was placed in the previous life, it would probably be a mobile phone hardware accessory at a glance.

But Tian Moyun didn't think so.

因为现阶段手机屏幕还停留在3.5寸、4寸、4.2寸、4.5寸、4.6寸这个大小，短时间内不会扩大，而且这里面有很多东西是手机用不到的。

For example: micro switch.

It's not a format dedicated to smartphones, it's more like the specifications of a gamepad, but compared to a gamepad, it's obviously much smaller. I don't know how much it costs. It's the core secret of the seven major groups.

Tian Moyun is an expert in the field of hardware, and he is no stranger to this stuff.

"This is for handhelds. Judging from the size, it should be a handheld similar to MP4."

He said with certainty.

MP4, this kind of thing has already appeared.

Compared with MP3, it has more video and game functions, a larger screen, and it is more convenient to read novels. Compared with smart phones, the price is much cheaper.

For many boarding student parties who are not very financially rich, it is undoubtedly a good thing to pass the boring time in the dormitory.

Tian Moyun has no interest in MP4.

However, several companies under him are particularly concerned about this kind of gadgets, so they have also launched a variety of audio-visual equipment with different shapes. Tian Moyun once played with it when he was visiting a brand store, and he felt pretty good.

……

"I can roughly imagine what this is."

Tian Moyun read the entire document, took a blank printing paper from the side, and picked up a pencil to draw quickly.

After a while, he drew what was in his mind, and then pushed it to Lu Wenbo who was opposite.

"This……"

Lu Wenbo was in doubt. He also asked the research team to restore it, and he was [-]% familiar with this blueprint, but it was far from the detail on the blueprint.

It seems that Tian Moyun has already formed a plan in his mind. The blueprint he drew is very beautiful and cool in terms of shape, and it is easy to carry without losing the gaming experience.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be the method prepared by the seven major groups."

Tian Moyun said lightly: "If they continue to develop video game consoles, they won't have the slightest chance of winning against [Thunder II], even if the seven major groups fight together... So, their only chance is to avoid the edge and find the corner. opportunity for overtaking."

"This opportunity is actually very simple, that is to find the blind spot of [Thunder Game]."

"When they found that [Thunder Games] had no plans for a handheld game console, they should have been planning this device."

"Although the arrival of smart phones makes handheld game consoles a bit redundant, in fact, the market is still quite large, and it can even be said... that there is a lot to do."

"If we can seize this market, the old four will be able to calmly survive under the sniping of [Thunder Game], and then, after they recover their breath, they will find a way to counterattack [Thunder Game] and try to regain their former dominance .”

"They made a good calculation."

"The handheld field is something [Thunder Games] has never been involved in, because it is not in the same field, so we have no way to snipe the old four, we can only watch them sell game consoles under our noses, all the time. Cannibalize the remaining game market bit by bit...it really is a good plan."

This……

Lu Wenbo's face was a little heavy.

In order to prepare for this battle, they had prepared so many opponents, but they didn't expect that the fourth family would seek to overtake in a corner instead of competing with them head-on.

As a result, all the hole cards they prepared were useless.

In the field of video game consoles, even if they develop more top-level masterpieces, what is the use?How to snipe handhelds that are not in the same field?

suddenly!

Lu Wenbo thought of something, and looked at Tian Moyun suddenly: "You already guessed that they would develop a handheld device?"

"Yes."

Tian Moyun nodded lightly: "[Thunder 2] is unsurpassed in the field of hardware performance, unrivaled in the software lineup, the price can also be shared to an extremely low level, and there is no problem with market recognition...Under such circumstances , as long as the seven major groups are not stupid enough, it is impossible to fight us head-on, this is a normal business logic, is it hard to guess?"

"..."

Listening to Tian Moyun's calm tone of course, Lu Wenbo suddenly felt a little suffocated.

People thought of everything from the very beginning, but what about me?

Lu Wenbo thought that he had held countless meetings with his team, but he didn't think of it, and suddenly felt ashamed and wanted to jump out of the window.

"Do you want to ask, since I thought of this, why didn't I remind you?"

Tian Moyun said lightly.

"..."

Lu Wenbo shook his head in embarrassment: "This is something I should have thought of, and I was negligent."

He felt that Tian Moyun was mocking him. If the boss needed to remind him of everything, why would he be paid such a high salary?
"Then what should we do now?"

Lu Wenbo couldn't care less about the embarrassment anymore, the most important thing is to find a way to solve the problem right now.

The old four will officially launch the new game console (handheld) jointly developed by the four major companies at the global press conference in a few days. By that time, how will they snipe their opponents?

It is simply unrealistic to use a video game console to snipe a handheld.

Because the two sides are not in the same field at all, this is the same as romance novels and martial arts novels. It is impossible to hit the romance novel next door just because your martial arts novel sells well.

The market is completely different, and the consumer base is not the same.

There may be overlap, but there is almost no alternative.

And most importantly, it has been a long time since [Thunder 2] was released, and the shortage crisis was completely alleviated a few months ago. Up to now, those who have the intention to buy have already started.

[Thunder 2] The global sales are close to 3 million units, which has already reached the limit ceiling and cannot be sold for a long time.

And this time.

If the handheld is suddenly released next door, those consumers who buy the handheld...they will never bring any new revenue to [Thunder 2], that's for sure.

Many of these players should be "multi-machine party".

They already have [Thunder 2], and then want to buy a handheld to pass the time when they are on the road or on a business trip... Who can stop them from buying the new game console from the old four?
Even Tian Moyun couldn't do it.

……

"Now? Just sit and watch."

Tian Moyun smiled and said lightly.

"This……"

Lu Wenbo smiled wryly. How could he sit still at this time?

If the old four were allowed to break out of the predicament and regain their lives under their noses, he, the chief CEO of [Thunder Games], should be replaced.

"By the way, since you've already thought about it, Boss, isn't it..."

Lu Wenbo suddenly thought of something and asked quickly.

"You're not stupid enough."

Tian Moyun said lightly.

"..."

Lu Wenbo had nothing to say for a while.

He should have reacted earlier, with Tian Moyun's cautious character, since he had already guessed the actions of the fourth family, how could he remain indifferent?

"Remember what I told you earlier?"

Tian Moyun sighed: "I said at the beginning that this time we compete with the old four, we will definitely bleed a lot and lose a lot of money, at least tens of billions of dollars. To be honest, if I have a choice, I really don't want to do it Do."

"..."

Lu Wenbo had a strange expression on his face.

He found that his big boss was getting more and more shameless.

The old four families have been reduced to the current situation, and they have to put all their eggs in one basket and burn their boats. Aren't they all driven to a dead end by you step by step?
What are you talking about now, "If you have a choice, I really don't want to do it"... The question is, have you given the old four a choice?
You can't wait to maim them completely and swallow them alive.

Everyone is not a pure and kind child anymore, what do you say?

"Boss, tell me what's behind you."

Lu Wenbo was tired.

He felt that it was more appropriate to talk directly about serious matters with Tian Moyun, and he could not listen to the other party's nagging and sighs, otherwise the more he listened, the more he doubted life.

"Follower..."

Tian Moyun smiled: "At the beginning, when I arrived at the fourth family, I would definitely overtake on a curve, so when someone asked me if I wanted to develop a handheld device, I directly rejected it, just to give them this chance... When I think about it, this business war is really tiring, you guys are fighting with enthusiasm, and I stand behind me and direct and act like a crazy person."

Lu Wenbo was shocked!
He suddenly remembered that someone had indeed suggested launching a new handheld device before, but at that time Tian Moyun rejected it with the excuse that the era of smartphones had come, and the handheld device was too tasteless and not necessary for development.

Now it seems that Tian Moyun had a plan back then.

The reason why he rejected the new handheld plan was not that he thought it was useless, but that he deliberately left the old four family a chance to "overtake on a curve".

The old four...

Lu Wenbo suddenly didn't want to ask Tian Moyun's backhand, he felt that there was no need to continue asking.

The old four families have been calculated to such an extent... Can they still turn the world upside down?
Putting everything in one basket, throwing everything at one's feet, fighting with one's back, sounds scary, but... In the final analysis, they are just a bunch of clowns who have been tricked and whose death is still unknown.

　Today is another 1000 starting point coin reward from [Xiao Li with Milk Fragrance] brother, heart-warming!
