Chapter 86 Say hello to colleagues
Qin Shaoyan smiled and said: "It's winter now, they can't wear summer clothes, and the leaders are still there. The outstanding advantages of the young ladies are not obvious, and their strengths are also ignored. Cover."
"Besides, the protagonists of major companies today are not these young ladies."
"What is that?" Cao Bo wondered, "Is it a game?"
"It's the stereo!" Qin Shaoyan sighed and covered his ears.
Then, as if a horn was blown in the venue, waves of sound came from all directions.
Cao Bo was frightened by this formation. Looking at the booths of major companies, all the speakers had been moved out and began to spread around.
In order to attract the attention of the audience, major companies began sonic attacks.
What are you doing to eat? The music at the place opposite is louder than ours. Turn it up louder and let me get over it.
What, the other party is louder than us, turn it up to the maximum!
The entire venue was surrounded by deafening sounds, and the audience and media who came in were all confused.
Ten thousand mythical beasts roared past in Cao Bo's heart, and he felt even more regretful.
What a mistake. It’s just that we don’t have beautiful models. Why did I forget to bring a big speaker?
The visitors who entered the venue were crowded, enduring the sound attack while flocking to the interested booths.
The most popular companies are naturally the most famous companies.
Not only did their booth have a large area, but it was also in a good location.
The beautiful ladies stood in a row, distributed gifts to the audience with a smile, and invited the audience to visit.
Ding Sanshi and Chen Tianqiao even came out in person to interact with the players, bringing great popularity.
Looking at the corner where Qin Shaoyan was waiting, it was a different scene. It could not be said to be a sea of people, but it could also be said to be empty.
Originally, the booth was located in a remote location, and the recruitment was not obvious. A few folding tables were placed there as if setting up a stall.
Compared with other glamorous booths, it seems quite perfunctory.
Cao Bo stood outside the booth, distributing leaflets and promoting the product.
Qin Shaoyan's gang seemed very different. A group of strong men sat on chairs, motionless.
Cao Bo glanced at it with some contempt in his heart.
Why are you putting on such a bratty air as a returnee after things like this? It’s been more than half an hour and not even a ghost has come to see you. Don’t you have any idea?
Qin Shaoyan didn't look anxious at all. He calmly drank the last sip of coffee, then stood up and clapped his hands.
"Teacher Hong, tell the brothers to start working!" Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Let us say hello to our colleagues!"
With the order, six sturdy men stood in unison. He stood up and neatly took off his thick coat.
These strong men were uniformly wearing tight-fitting shirts and had muscles all over their bodies, like bodybuilding champions. They looked quite spectacular.
The murderous appearance of the big men immediately startled the people around them and made them very confused.
"Hang up the banner!"
Teacher Hong and Zhang Tianshi immediately took out the banner from their bags and pulled hard one on the left and the other on the right.
The huge banner trembled and unfolded, standing tall.
Cao Bo stared at the content on the banner with his mouth open, and he was completely dumbfounded.
What is this?
"Celebrating the sales of 11 million units of our company's stand-alone games in North America!"
"Refreshing a new sales record for domestic stand-alone games!"
One, ten, hundreds, thousands...ten thousand?
Cao Bo rubbed his eyes and counted carefully five times before he was sure he had read it correctly.
11 million... There is a limit to your bragging.
And if you are bragging here, you are really not afraid of being laughed at by the crowd.
“Mr. Qin, Mr. Qin.” Cao Bo said dullly, “Your banner...isn’t it a bit exaggerated?”
“Is it an exaggeration?” Qin Shaoyan raised his eyebrows, “ I’m just telling the truth.”
As soon as the banner was displayed, the surrounding area seemed to become quiet.
The staff at other booths focused their attention on Qin Shaoyan's simple booth, and then began to whisper.
Several spectators passing by just glanced at it casually, and then stopped in their tracks with shock on their faces. "Hey, look, over there."
"Damn, how dare you brag!"
"Eleven million?! That's bullshit! Is there a limit?”
“Whose masterpiece is it?”
Soon the audience gathered more and more, pointing at Qin Shaoyan's booth, and then began to call friends and invite everyone to come and watch together.
A reporter from "Popular Software" magazine squeezed through the crowd, took a few photos of the banner, and then walked towards the booth.
The reporter asked tentatively: "Which company do you belong to?"
"Sentinel Technology."
"Sentinel Technology?"
The reporter thought about it for a long time and couldn't remember which company it was. He often dealt with PC games and was familiar with domestic companies of all sizes. He had never heard of this company.
"We were just established in August 2003." Qin Shaoyan added with a smile.
"Oh, a new company." The reporter looked up at the banner again and asked cautiously, "What products do you have?"
"Plants vs. Zombies."
“What the hell?!” The reporter was really shocked and looked at Qin Shaoyan in disbelief, “Did you make the game?”
"Yes, it is made by our company. If it is fake, it is guaranteed to be replaced." Qin Shaoyan added, "Domestic game companies only publish it in North America."
The reporter was shaking with excitement. , he realized that a big news hit him on the head.
The game "Plants vs. Zombies" was very popular in North America, and pirated copies soon spread to China.
As a magazine that specializes in reporting on PC games, the reporter himself has played it and quickly became addicted.
But he never expected that this popular stand-alone game in North America would be made by a domestic manufacturer.
"Hello, I am a reporter from Volkswagen Software. My name is Ding Yang. Can I interview you?" Ding Yang added another question out of professional sensitivity, "Is this sales figure accurate?"
Qin Shaoyan Without saying anything, he took out an American gaming magazine from his bag and handed it over.
Ding Yang opened it and saw that it was a special report on "Plants vs. Zombies".
There are two words written in bloody fonts, "elevenmillion"
The title of the special report is also very exaggerated and written in English, "Zombies are coming!"
Ding Yang took a deep breath and turned to look at the gathered audience.
Under the curious and doubtful eyes, an inexplicable emotion rose in Ding Yang's heart, and his whole person trembled slightly.
He is a loyal fan of domestic games. He has worked at "Popular Software" for more than five years and has witnessed the birth to decline of domestic stand-alone games.
Contrary to the strong online game market, the stand-alone game market is becoming increasingly depressed. A large number of companies have either gone bankrupt or switched to online games.
Although high-quality products have appeared frequently in recent years, they have not been able to curb the deteriorating trend of the market.
It has become a consensus in the industry that a single machine is no longer viable.
The domestic stand-alone environment is deteriorating year by year, and Ding Yang is filled with unwillingness.
Single-player games seem to be really dying... No, domestic stand-alone games will not die!
Ding Yang suddenly raised his hands and unfolded the magazine to face the audience. His throat seemed to be blocked. After a few seconds, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength and said loudly: "It's true!"
“Domestic stand-alone game! Sales volume in North America is 11 million!”
"It's our stand-alone game!"
Ding Yang roared loudly, "A new record for domestic stand-alone games!"
The surrounding audience was stunned at first, and then went into an uproar.
Everyone present felt a numb current running straight from the spine to the back of the head.
At that moment, there was only one word in everyone's mind.
"Awesome!"
