Chapter 599 Do we really have a domestic 3A?
In a studio of Shang Hai.
Several game bloggers who happened to be gathered together were looking at the same computer screen attentively.
What was playing on the screen was the first 15-minute live demonstration video of "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel".
In fact, this is the fourth time these bloggers have watched this live demonstration. It lasted 15 minutes, and including the time to stop for discussion, they watched it for almost an hour and a half.
But even after using it for such a long time, these bloggers are still enjoying it and don't feel bored at all.
It was in this hour and a half that this video directly exceeded one million views on Station D, with more than 4,000 comments and more than 4,000 comments, and even the coin input was almost over 10,000.
Of course, this data is still far from the data of [396,000 barrages], [3.943 million coins] and [349,000 comments] in the first live demonstration video of Black Monkey on Earth.
But in terms of unit time alone, "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel" is no less popular than "Black Myth: Wukong". It is even more discussed and has wider coverage.
There are many people who don’t play games or pay attention to games at all. After eating the melons of Xu Xiyu and Guo Jinwei, they can’t help but click in and take a look.
Seeing this, among these non-game playing groups, quite a few people couldn’t help but leave a sentence on the screen: "What the fuck?" Have games evolved like this now? 】
Of course, it's not just them.
Even real gamers are in a state of disbelief right now, just like these game bloggers.
As the logo of [Parallel Colors] and the official website of "Journey to the West: Later Episodes" appeared for the fourth time at the end of the film, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Holy shit, I still can't believe it, we really have a domestic 3A?"
"Domestic 3A, why is this word so unfamiliar?"
"Brothers, you are awesome. Now you are really awesome. Just because they are willing to invest in making a game like this. In the end, it just turned into a piece of shit. I have to buy it to taste it."
"It can't be a piece of shit. The content in the actual machine demonstration can already explain the problem. It's hard to say whether the quality can reach the top. Anyway, it will definitely not get worse."
"I never expected that Boss Dan wasn't bragging. It's really not CG."
"It should be said, but it would take a fool like Mr. Dan to spend money on this. If it were replaced by another big company, this game would not be successful at all."
"What do you mean by a stupid young man? He is an aspiring young man with ideals and ambitions."
"Yes, yes, I hope this aspiring young man will give me a trial slot. I can't resist it anymore. I want to try it myself now."
Naturally, he was not the only one who wanted to get started.
In the past hour and a half, more than 1.8 million people have made reservations for trial play through the link.
Although some of the people who made reservations must have joined in the fun and signed up, the 1.8 million people who made reservations in one hour still made the onlookers sigh with emotion.
"It would be great if these 1.8 million were sold."
"What are you thinking, 1.8 million an hour? It's not bad to sell 2 million copies in a year. Xu Xiyu is afraid he will lose money this time."
"It's a pity. I hope Xu Xiyu won't lose too much this time. If he loses everything, it will be difficult for others to find investment if they want to do large-scale stand-alone machines."
"Not only does it damage the confidence of investors, it also damages the confidence of gamers in domestic large-scale stand-alone machines."
"Holy shit! This is fucking weird. This is the first time I hope someone else's game can make money!"
"I also hope he can make money."
As soon as these words came out, several colleagues who were originally in high spirits became less interested.
To be honest, there must be some colleagues in the game industry waiting to see Xu Xiyu's joke. After all, there were people who went to the parallel lottery to poach people, and they poached a lot.
But more game manufacturers actually hope that Xu Xiyu can succeed, including those who poach people.
Because "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel" is a stand-alone game, since it is a stand-alone game, its game content will definitely be consumed at some point.
After the user finishes playing one, he will go to play another.
Moreover, driven by inertia, there is a high probability that another similar game will be played.
Therefore, once "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel" is completed, it will provide another possibility for many game manufacturers and make the market bigger.
After all, mobile games make money, but that doesn’t mean that as long as it’s a mobile game, it will definitely make money. There are a lot of mobile games on the market that lose money so much that they lose their pants.
Thinking of this, one of them couldn't help but said: "Let's also help promote it."
"Whether it's publicity or publicity, I can help a little bit. Moreover, "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel" is so popular now, so our help in publicity can actually be considered as a way to gain popularity."
"It makes sense."
The same conversation happened in many places.
For a time, netizens who were eating melons were surprised to find that many well-known and unknown game official accounts had forwarded and promoted the actual gameplay demonstration video of "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel", and included texts wishing that the game would sell well when it is released.
Good guys, you must know that the promotion of "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel" came after the Jixiangshe incident. Seeing the unity of colleagues in the gaming industry, many netizens were instantly happy.
[Hey, my dear, the game industry is united. Are you promoting other companies’ games? 】
[This is a normal industry ecology. After all, this is the first 3A, and it has become a reference for everyone. On the other hand, in a certain cross talk circle, father and son are usually stabbing each other at critical moments] [Guo Jinwei: Aren’t we talking about games? , why are you talking to me again? 】
[Actually, not only the cross talk industry, but also the entertainment industry are all the same. In the past, some companies were so jealous of Mr. Dan’s works. How jealous were they? 】
[Hua Hai: Just report your ID number to me]
[I don’t care about these things, I only care about when the trial qualification will be sent to me. If you don’t send me the trial qualification, then please release the game tomorrow]
[@Xu Xiyu@Parallel Chongcai@三鱼@伟古…@杨万wan, when will this game be released? 】
[Good guy, you are ordering troops. Anyone who has anything to do with Danzong is yours, right? 】
[Hey, that’s strange. Mr. Dan knows a lot of celebrities. Why don’t you ask them to help promote it? 】
[Maybe it’s because they have a large number of underage fans? 】
It is indeed because of this that Xu Xiyu did not ask celebrities to help promote it.
Of course, this is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that Xu Xiyu plans to use the favor on the sale.
This book was recently updated in ##六@@九@@书@@!! Updated!
Now the popularity of the promotional video alone is enough, there is no need to call these celebrities over to shout.
However, Xu Xiyu's refusal does not mean that these celebrities are not proactive. They have long wanted to have a relationship with Xu Xiyu, but they have never had the chance.
"Let me tell you, helping Mr. Xu promote movies and TV series is the icing on the cake. It's the same with or without us. But this game is different. I just studied it and they all said that there is a high probability of losing money.
Therefore, at this time, we took the initiative to help with publicity, which is called helping in times of need. Every heat we bring reduces the possibility of Mr. Xu losing money.
If you don’t believe me, take a look. Now Mr. Xu is thanking the game colleagues who helped him promote him one by one. "In a production crew in Beijing, a group of people gathered together to chat.
"But the question is, this is a game. Will parents report it if it is so popular? Also, the official attitude must also be considered." An older actor worried.
"Yeah, the popularity right now is scary enough. I just heard from Xiao Wu that all platforms are ranked No. 1 in hot searches. In just a moment, the number of views on station D alone has increased by another 500,000.
< br>
And the number of people who have made reservations for the trial is already 2.5 million. With such a huge popularity, I'm worried that the authorities will come out to suppress it. After all, games are electronic opium. "Another older actor couldn't help but said.
As soon as these words came out, several young actors born in 1995 next to them were dumbfounded: "What the hell? No, wait a minute, Teacher Zhao, electronic opium? This term is quite old."
"Stop electronic opium, the official media will repost the promotional video of "Journey to the West: Post-Sequel"."
"Real or false, which official media?" Upon hearing this, Teacher Zhao asked in disbelief.
"It's not any one, it's all the big official media, my dear, and it has to be Mr. Xu. The cards are full." The actor couldn't help but sigh as he spoke.
Listening to his sigh, Teacher Zhao suddenly had a strange idea and said with a smile: "Hey, tell me, how did Guo Jinwei feel when he saw this scene?"
"Tsk~~" As soon as this question came out, there were several unbearable sounds in the scene.
Along with this news, one person couldn't help but said: "I'm actually also very curious. On the front foot, he was criticized for malicious competition without a bottom line and swaying public opinion; on the other hand, Mr. Xu's project was positively publicized. This... sne~~"
Here, several people chatted about Guo Jinwei.
On the other side, Xu Xiyu and his group were having a meeting in Parallel Chongcai. The word Guo Jinwei was completely absent from the topic.
"The popularity in the country has been overwhelming. If we follow the steps step by step, there will be no problems. Now, our main goal must be abroad."
"We have made preparations for all major game shows. Our team will go to Cologne, Germany soon. Unreal 5 officials will also give us support, and several game release platforms have also been agreed upon."
"You are professionals in this area. As I said before, don't be afraid of spending money. Just go ahead and do it. If the publicity budget of 100 million is not enough, I can add more.
I know what you are worried about, but even if we lose money, we will still lose money. In short, the goal this time is to guarantee three and win four. Three million is not considered a loss, and four million is considered a win..."
Having said this, Xu Xiyu paused: "If it's 5 million, then we will be a milestone in domestic stand-alone games."
"Mr. Xu, what if it's 8 million?" Lu Tang couldn't help but joke.
"Eight million? That's the milestone."
"What if it's 10 million?" Yu Yuyu couldn't help but join in the fun.
"10 million...a kite tied to the antenna."
"Hahahahahaha." After Xu Xiyu finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter in the conference room.
Listening to their laughter, Xu Xiyu clapped his hands and said: "Okay, let's not be too ambitious, just get things done in a down-to-earth manner. As for the final result, it depends on God's will."
"By the way, Mr. Xu, speaking of foreign countries, there is something I need to report to you." The vice president of external relations who had been silent suddenly said.
"You said."
"D&I contacted us and said that they would provide us with diversified guidance services and asked us to pay a service fee of US$2 million. Their team would join as soon as possible..."
"Tell them to get out of here as far as I can." Xu Xiyu interrupted directly.
