Chapter 647 Extra-Imaginable Results
September 1st morning.
In the IGN China Editorial Department, a group of people gathered together, which was very lively.
One of the editors wearing glasses looked excited: "I just found out that as of the early morning of this year, the pre-sale sales of "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Next Generation" have more than doubled, from 137 to 311."
"Only 311 copies?" After the words came, an incredible movement immediately came from the side.
With a "coaxing~", everyone present was amused by this "only 311 copies".
The person who just spoke was even more amused and crying: "It must be 3.11 million copies, what do you think?"
"Hahahaha." Another burst of laughter came.
"Is this the data from the entire platform?" someone asked again.
"No, I heard that it is the data from the official channels of Steam and Wegame, the pre-sale data of PS and other platforms and the three-party platforms, and there is no statistics yet.
Of these 3.11 million, only 130,000 came from Wegame, and the remaining 2.98 million were from Steam. ”
"Didn't the 2.98 million yuan be bought in the country?"
"No, the data from the national region and Wegame is 2.35 million, and the remaining 760,000 are all pre-sale sales overseas."
"Overseas?" The person who asked the question was stunned, then hurriedly guessed, "Is it possible that it was bought by Chinese overseas?"
"That probably won't be. The price of "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Times" on Steam is the lowest in the country. Even if overseas Chinese support it, they will most likely choose the country, or even..."
"Is there even foreigners who buy domestic regions?"
"Yes! It's just like ours running to the Argentina area to buy games, but the number of people should not be large." At this point, the speaker paused.
Then he quickly added: "There is also an internal data. Do you know how many of the 3.11 million luxury versions sold for 328 are accounted for?"
"How many? Not half of them are luxury versions, right?"
"Half?! Then you really underestimate it."
"Damn it, can I have a 2 million luxury version?"
"It's a 2.573,197 luxury version. What a good guy, there are still many rich people!"
"Hiss~~" As soon as the words fell, a sound of gasping for breath came.
On Blue Star, domestic buyout large-scale stand-alone games, let alone pre-sales of 3.11 million yuan, even if the total sales volume reaches 3 million yuan.
"Is this considered explosive?"
"Of course it's a big deal!"
"Then let's make a poster and congratulate me?"
"No, no, no, no, just talk about this news privately. The specific sales data must be announced by the official of parallel lottery. Please hold back and don't talk nonsense."
"How can I bear this? You don't know how annoying the gangsters on the Internet are talking! I really want to use this data to slap them in the face."
"Isn't there a fool who said last time [The total sales of "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Continuing" exceeds 1 million. If it exceeds one million, he eats shit on his hands and eats more than 10,000 more pounds]? He posted another post to show off, fuck!"
"Is that so? Let's take a look." The man said, taking out his cell phone and finding the post.
I saw that the person who "want to eat shit on the upside down" posted a sarcastic post: [Don't break the defense even if you criticize eggs, you should have thought of such a day.
In the past, the egg beast took a CG and pretended to be a real machine to cheat, which made you go climax on the spot, and I wanted to laugh.
Now, I will just show the filling when testing it for the media.
Anyway, it doesn’t work. It’s useless to be stubborn in the future.
I still say the same thing, sales volume cannot exceed 1 million. After that, I will eat shit on the upside down. If I have more than 10,000, I will eat one more pound. No, I will eat one more ton! 】
Good guy, after reading this post, these editors all laughed out loud.
"Damn it, I see that he has some inconsistent comments on his posts. Is it a bad idea to eat too much shit?"
"Puff~~ According to the current pre-sale data, he has to eat 211 tons on his handstand. Where can I find so many for him?"
"Not only, this is still on pre-sale. When it is officially released, I have played a lot, and maybe the sales results will have to go up. I want to see how much he can eat."
"Hey, do you think the pre-sale results will increase tonight, and how much will the final results be?"
"According to this situation, I guess I will have to increase by 1 million tonight and directly reach 4 million. The final result is likely to be around 6 million."
"4 million? I think I can reach 5 million and the final result will reach 8 million."
"Impossible, 6 million is the ideal situation, because the pre-sale has drained the market potential. Those who should buy have already bought it at this time, and those who don't buy it will not buy it later. There are not so many new players coming in."
This statement was recognized by others present.
One of them nodded emotion and said, "Yes, it's a pity, but this time I will definitely not lose money, I can make a fortune, which is good news."
It's really good news, and the bigger good news is coming soon.
Los Angeles, USA.
Nancy was looking at the computer with a playful expression.
As she looked at her, she turned her head to a handsome man next to her and smiled, "Water, I knew that there is no woman in the world that you can't take."
"That's natural, but Aurora is really uncharming, and I didn't sleep with her." Walt Lands raised the red wine glass in his hand with some smugness when he heard this.
"You don't need to tell me about this kind of thing." Nancy rolled her eyes.
At the beginning, after Nancy and Xu Xiyu talked about the topic of "Journey to the West: The Last Legend", they had a sudden idea and fooled Walt Lands into a female IGN reporter named Aurora (Chapter 602).
The reason why I did this is because Walt and Aurora knew each other.
Secondly, Aurora is not only a game reporter but also one of the original members of DI. She is usually a diverse and proud player who is extremely anti-male player.
But later, this extremely anti-male player actually sold paid customized content on Onlyfans because of gambling debts.
Unfortunately, because she looks average and has no fame, she can't compete with other "welfare girls" in the fierce market, so few people subscribe to her.
So, Nancy used other channels to sponsor Aurora, asking Aurora to criticize Journey to the West: The Last Legend.
Aurora did not disappoint her funding and has been opposing "Journey to the West: The Last Legend" online.
After the media scored yesterday, they pretended to have played it without getting the evaluation qualification, and then gave "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Next Generation" the lowest score of all the scores - 5 points.
Since she is a game reporter at IGN headquarters, everyone mistakenly thinks this is IGN's rating, and IGN urgently refuted the rumors, saying that their rating has not been announced yet, which is Aurora's personal behavior.
But if it is not personal, everyone will still calculate the accounts on IGN.
Aurora herself also said that she represents the views of most IGN game editors, especially the editors of neodymium and cross-subject editors, on this game.
IGN has not denied this.
It was IGN's non-denial that once again encouraged Aurora's confidence and kept posting online to criticize "Journey to the West: The Last Legend".
To be honest, the most common post is similar to what [this is the worst game I have ever seen. I emphasize again that any independent and independent surname Neodymium should resist it, and any man who respects Neodymium should also resist it].
The content is a cliché anyway, so don’t expect such people to give up any "rich vocabulary" farts, because they don’t have this kind of literary literacy at all.
"I hope to give her more labels in a short period of time and make her the most representative female game reporter in the West." Nancy knocked on the table.
Without waiting for a reply, she added: "Of course, it's that kind of false, it doesn't need to be implemented, it just needs to have a certain momentum during this period."
"It can be done 5 million US dollars. I can guarantee that she will be the representative of the game reporter in the next week."
"It's too expensive!"
"4 million is fine."
"1 million, I only need to give her enough 'reputation' within three days after the release of "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Times". Nancy directly quoted a price. "No problem." Walt did not bargain anymore. He is a broker, so he can make money.
However, he asked curiously, "I don't understand why you want to praise her? You know, this person has many flaws, and she will easily be destroyed."
"It is precisely because she has flaws that it is easier for me to control."
"There is another thing. Are you not good friends with that Leo? Why do you hide behind your back and criticize him for your game?"
"If I say that this bastard deceives my feelings, will you believe me because of love?" Nancy said deliberately.
"I don't believe it must be because he has a conflict with your Blue Donkey's philosophy." Walt Lands shook his head.
"You're so smart," Nancy said, looking at the computer.
On the computer screen, there is a short video of Aurora kneeling and shouting "Daddyf**kme".
This video was posted by Aurora on OnlyFans before. Of course, it has long disappeared now. Since Nancy sponsored, Aurora has never been a "welfare girl".
However, it doesn't matter whether she is right or not, because Walt Lands has also taken more content.
Don't get me wrong, it's not a color video, but a few chats.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
During this chat, Aurora said a lot of exciting content, for example, she posted a lot of extremely offensive words about "discriminating against the right people".
Only these things will give her a real fatal blow. After all, in foreign countries, astringent content is nothing.
Thinking of this, Nancy stretched and began to look forward to the drama "Aurora raised the banner of independence and correctness, criticized "Journey to the West: The Last Legend", and then exposed the other side in private."
"This will definitely add another boost to the popularity of "Journey to the West: The Last Legend". Nancy murmured in her heart.
On this side, she plans to add popularity to "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Last Story", while on the other side, some teams have the idea of riding on the popularity.
"You mean to spread the head-on decisive between "Agents" and "Journey to the West: The Last Legend"?"
"Yes."
"But our "Agents" is an FPS game, and it is not the same category as "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Times"! What's the best showdown?"
"It is precisely because of this that we have to hype the showdown. If it is in the same category, there is still a competitive relationship. There is no competition now, so we will not lose at all."
After saying that, without waiting for a reply, he excitedly said, "Oh, my god, do you know how popular "Journey to the West: The Last Legend" is now?
As long as we spend a little money and hype the topic of the showdown, we can intervene in every subsequent popularity and news of "Journey to the West: The Last Legend"! ”
"Yes, this is simply a genius idea. You know, the stand-alone game in China has never been successful, and this time "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Condor Heroes" will also fail.
By then, we will also get a topic that defeated "Journey to the West: The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and defeated that damn Leo. With this popularity, our "Agents" will have a greater influence. ”
"Since that's the case, what are you waiting for? Hurry up, go and execute it!" the man in charge ordered.
After giving the order, he seemed to have thought of something and shouted: "Can anyone find out what the current pre-sale results of that damn Journey to the West: The Legend of the Next Generation?"
"We can only find out what is on the PS platform." One person responded.
After all, "Agents" is a Sony game, but Sony is too big, and there is actually no "friendship" between different projects.
"Then let's find out the pre-sales number of PS... Forget it, it's meaningless, so hurry up and hype up the topic of the showdown."
This sentence made the people present feel relieved. They are actually not willing to waste time asking, and they don’t pay much for extra work.
Who cares about how "Journey to the West: The Legend" sells?
People who are parallel to the heavy color care.
Another day passed.
September 2 at 9:00 a.m.
The newly updated data is placed in front of the executives of the parallel lottery.
The main planner Lin Zhenyu looked at the data that was specially put into the envelope to increase the sense of ritual. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said to the main beauty Lu Lang: "You can tear it off."
"I won't demolish it. You are the master planner, you can demolish it." Lu Yan immediately shook his head.
Speaking of which, they didn't dare to read the data before, for fear that the "heart of Tao" would be broken after reading it.
But after yesterday's pre-sale sales of 3.11 million yuan, the confidence of the two instantly came.
However, with confidence, there is also the mentality of "worrying for gains and losses". They expect more sales, but are afraid that sales will not reach more.
The complex taste is really hard to understand if it is not the person involved.
Just like that, the two of them pushed me and I pushed you, and Lu Jiu, who was sitting next to him, couldn't hold back.
She reached out and took the envelope over and complained, "I don't know what you are pushing. I just look at the data. This envelope will not bite people, so I dare not disassemble it."
"What do you know?" Lu Yan rolled his eyes.
"I really don't understand. Who can understand how you..." Lu Jiu was stunned as he said.
Because the envelope had been opened by her while talking.
The numbers above make her eyes, nostrils and mouth widen at the same time.
This expression made Lin Zhenyu and Lu Yan's eyes lit up instantly.
But the next second, there was a slap in the same time, and the two of them thought to themselves: Not because the data is not as good as yesterday, right?
"How many?" Lin Zhenyu asked with some concern in anticipation.
Lu Jiu did not answer, but made a gesture of 1 at Lin Zhengyu.
Seeing this gesture, Lin Zhengyu felt that he was hit by a huge sense of happiness. He stood up and said in surprise: "Another increase of one million? Brothers and sisters, another increase of one million!"
After his words finished, a loud roar of celebration immediately sounded in the office.
"It means that the sales volume of pre-sales has reached 4 million. Now, with this data as a base, there is no problem in making a return. The next thing depends on how much you make." Lin Zhengyu was happy to circle with Lu Yan.
But Lu Jiu interrupted his movements and said, "It's not about a million, it's doubled."
This sentence seems to press the pause button to the office.
Everyone who was still celebrating was stunned and turned their heads to look at Lu Jiu's actions, like an unfueled robot.
"How much did you say?" Lu Yan asked in disbelief.
Lu Jiu still did not answer, but turned over the envelope and saw a row of numbers clearly written on it.
[Total pre-sale sales: 6,011,792]
quiet.
Everyone looked at the number and even held their breath.
Only Lu Yan slowly approached and counted like a primary school student with his fingers.
"Two, ten, hundred, ten, ten thousand, ten thousand, one million..." At this point, Lu Yan murmured in a low voice as if he was talking to himself, "Six hundred and ten thousand?"
The next second, the murmur turned into an excited roar: "Damn it! Six million!!!"
This "Damn" sounded like a shouting "Aowu~~~" when summoning a companion in a wolf pack
The rest of the office are the "wolf" they are being driven to shout together.
However, the wolf is "Aowu~~Aowu~~Aowu~~",
And they...
"Damn!"
"Damn it!!"
"Damn it!!!"
