Chapter 179 Escape from reality is just needed
"Why can't "The Prototype" achieve the sales it should have?"

"It's easy!"

"Ghost games can only be played in the underground game market, and there are still many players who don't know about Prototype."

"Or they know about Prototype, but haven't tried it yet."

"In other words, "Prototype" is not famous enough!"

"That's exactly what I want to solve."

"The fame of "Prototype" can be even greater, and it can attract more players to join the ranks of underground game consumers."

Han Qi picked up a glass of red wine and said jokingly in a very leisurely manner: "Many people say that "Prototype of Death" may be the best game in the history of Cyberstar. If it is really the best game, wouldn't it? Should it have an all-time best sales?"

When hearing what Han Qi said, the staff of Ghost were also a little surprised.

"Prototype" may really be more fun than any game of Polar Bear, and it may be worthy of the title of the best game in Cyberstar history.

But it's not realistic!
With the current sales volume of "Prototype", even if the follow-up promotion continues, the word-of-mouth will continue to explode.

The sky-high [-] million will be sky-high!
How is it possible to hit the highest sales volume in history?
You must know that in the history of Polar Bear Company, there are several games with sales exceeding 5 million!
With the current platform of "Prototype" - games in the underground market will never be able to reach that level, right?

The employees thought it was impossible.

But is it really impossible?
As if reading something from the surprised and puzzled eyes of the employees, Han Qi smiled slightly, exuding the temperament of a domineering president and said, ""Prototype" hit the first sales volume in history? Impossible?"

"But never say never!" Han Qi's expression was very serious.

In view of the seriousness of the dignified President Han, even if the staff present at the meeting thought it was impossible in their hearts, they naturally did not dare to show any suspicious expressions.

After an embarrassing 10 seconds of silence, Han Qi broke the silence with a joke.

"Haha, the ideal is very lofty and the reality is very skinny. Of course I know that "Prototype" will not be able to achieve such a high sales volume under the current circumstances."

"Why? In fact, it's because the reputation is not big enough, the platform is not big enough!"

""Prototype" can currently sell tens of millions of copies, but this is definitely not the upper limit of the game."

Han Qi once again emphasized that the ghost game needs a bigger stage.

The stage of the underground market is not big enough, and the upper limit is not high enough.

Then use your power to transform this stage.

Han Qi's goal is very ambitious.

I want to push the sales of the game to over 5 million, even [-] million, when the ghost game cannot enter the formal channels!
Why does Han Qi have this confidence?

On Earth, which game dares not log in to major game platforms such as Steam, WG, Orange, etc.?

Without entering regular game stores and markets.

Just relying on word of mouth among players and resource sharing on online disks, will it become a hot hit?
Unfortunately, it is no longer possible.

So why does Han Qi dare to dream of this spring and autumn dream?

Why does Han Qi think that when the ghost game cannot enter the regular game market, it wants to make the ghost game exceed [-] million or even hit the first sales in history?
the reason is simple.

Because Cyberstar’s game market is huge!

Very very big.

If we only look at the total population, after experiencing devastating disasters such as corporate wars, nuclear radiation, and the Great Plague.

The total population of Cyberstar has dropped from a peak of at least 150 billion to the current uncountable but sky-high 100 billion.

The population living in rural areas is actually in a state of anarchy. In many industries, the population in rural areas, homeless people, etc. are not regarded as consumer markets.

The main sales volume is the population living in the super cities represented by Suzaku City, ordinary cities, satellite cities, etc.

Commonly known as the urban system population.

And Cyberstar's global population living in urban systems is about 50%—that is, about 50 billion.

If ghosts do not count the population of those non-urban systems, it means that the market group for ghost games is only 50 billion.

It seems that the consumer market of 50 billion is not as large as the population of 70 billion on the earth?
But in fact, Cyberstar’s game market is much larger than the earth!

First of all, there are more than 70 billion people on the earth, but which game can truly be globally oriented?
But Cyberstar has achieved a high degree of globalization, especially the game industry.

Ghost games can effectively use the global market in the global game environment.

The global game market alone has determined the sales ceiling of Cyberstar games, which is actually much higher than the sales ceiling on Earth.

Like countless people on the earth complain about "

Based on the long game life cycle, plus the super quality of the game itself.

Its sales volume barely exceeds 1.5 million.

This is the result of several years of hard work by Earth's R-star company.

And Polar Bear Company can release several games with sales exceeding [-] million each year.

In addition, the sales of several super works have reached the 5 million sales club that no game company on earth can even imagine and can't understand!

With the level of the Polar Bear game, it is easy to make a game that surpasses the sales volume.

This can only be said hehe.

The gap between the game market sizes on Earth and Cyberstar is evident from this.

But that's just one of them.

Another important factor that determines the sales ceiling of Cyberstar games is the social reality of Cyberstar.

Even if the super city represented by Suzaku City is full of entertainment, it is only superficial prosperity.

The lives of most ordinary people have long been bound by the rules and regulations of giant enterprises.

The wave of unemployment, the pressure of life, and a life with no hope for the future.

There are a few street gangsters who harbor dreams and want to overthrow big shots and become legends in Suzaku City.

But most people can only face reality, choose to be numb, and choose to ignore it.

And the virtual game world is a very good way to decompress.

Chaomeng's virtual ability is naturally the best, and it is also the most able to make people forget reality.

But other games can also make people forget their troubles to a certain extent, such as work pressure, high credit card debt, medical membership that is about to expire, forgetting that there is no money for renewal and maintenance and may be charged. Take the prosthetic body that causes disability...

The more depressing the reality, the more people need the virtual world to escape.

So even though Cyberstar's game is so expensive, it's expensive and stretched.

But buyers are still coming in an endless stream—no way, escaping reality is just what Cyberstar needs!
