As the largest social forum in the game circle in Huaguo, Youtu Forum, in addition to commercial copyright transactions and daily game sharing, naturally also has a forum area for players to communicate.
The number of daily online users exceeds one million, and the first-hand news in the circle is almost all spread from it.
After the original game design competition ended last Thursday, the list of winners has attracted the attention of many gamers, but the post comments at that moment have tended to the normal range, there are doubts but not many.
After all, the three award-winning games have not yet been officially launched, and the absolute advantages and disadvantages cannot be distinguished by the concept alone.
Until late Friday night, Deng Mufeng, the chief producer of "The View of the Sea", posted a post on his personal page——
"It's a pity that I failed to lead "Cang Hai Guan" and the entire production team to achieve better results, but I still don't think a single ranking can explain the quality of the game."
"Mufeng Games has grown from scratch to today, which is already a success that surpasses others. I would like to stick to the original intention of the game, and I hope that the love will never change."
"From tomorrow, "Cang Hai Guan" will be officially launched! Welcome everyone to play games with me!"
This news is actually to promote the official public beta of the game, and there is nothing wrong with it in essence, but the bad thing is—
The game fans who entered the internal test firmly believed that his remarks had "something to say", so they couldn't help posting questions on the forum again.
"Why are the award-winning game genres so similar this year? How did the organizers and the judging panel choose them? The promised game categories should be in full bloom!"
"That's right! "Canghaiguan" is a rare ancient game in recent years. The favorable rate of the two rounds of internal testing is so high. Is this selection team blind?"
""Obliteration of Alien Beast" and "The Last Mist" are both doomsday games, and I also think that it is good to choose one of the two."
"Will there be an inside story?"
"I feel that there is a shady scene plus one. I heard that the two major game factories have invested a lot behind the scenes this year. I always feel that I am soaked in the stench of capital."
It was the weekend, and after "Cang Hai Guan" was officially launched for public testing, these questioning remarks increased.
After two nights of fermenting, some game netizens have even rushed to the official account of the "Original Game Design Competition" to denounce—
However, the official account has been playing dead.
The more silent you are, the more ghostly you are.
Just when the netizens were convinced of this, another breaking news post hit the forum homepage—
"I'm just asking who else doesn't know, the game architect Will has a relationship with a rich man, and has always been a habitual offender who used the back door to gild his games!"
The user who posted the post was a forum account named "Zhuifeng", which has been registered for more than five years, and the forum has a high reputation.
After he published this extremely rough title, he also added detailed graphic content to the main building—
"Maybe some people don't know that the award-winning "Trace" and "The Last Mist" are all written by Will, which has never been done in the previous seven competitions. Is it the strength? Or the financial strength? force?
"Trace" was sold to Weiyi's Xingyun Fun Tour, and "Last Mist" is Will's own studio.
I got the original group list. In the first and second rounds of screening, the latter were all assigned to the group where it was easy to break through.
And other award-winning or high-profile game projects "Tracking", "Destroying Alien Beasts", and "Cang Hai Guan" were all assigned to the extremely competitive "death group".
Isn't this kind of arrangement really a deliberate eccentricity of the sponsor and the capital behind it? Isn't it just to give a green light to a certain game?
And I also heard that both "Killing the Alien" and "The Last Mist" participated in the bidding of a certain commercial investment company. to the funds. "
In addition, the other party even released a video of two people kissing in the car, which seems to be a candid shot with specially processed perspective and light, but two points are particularly obvious-
Luxury cars worth nearly 10 million yuan, and the exclusive beige coat worn by Pei Yi on the day of the live broadcast of the opening ceremony.
This post appeared during the evening peak of traffic on Sunday, and the comments broke through 100 in just five minutes.
"I'll go! Is it true?"
"Aside from other things, winning awards for two original games at once is indeed a bit too much."
"Add one! It doesn't conform to the previous award rules to win awards for games of the same type, and if I remember correctly, "End Mist" is the last game to win the award? It's the place for other games!"
"I really don't believe that a rookie architect who has been in the industry for less than a year can be so awesome?"
"Please don't bring "Zhouji", the copyright is already in Xingyun Funyou's hands, and bringing will's signature is the copyright respect given by the big factory. In fact, the picture and creation have nothing to do with him, okay! "
"As a former employee of XX Commercial Investment who has resigned, let me say something in a very low voice-"The Last Mist" was indeed pre-determined to get funds at that time! Will deliberately didn't come that day to avoid suspicion of the high-level executives, and the initial setting of "Alien Beast" was very Wonderful, it was a pity before, but fortunately, gold shines everywhere.”
"Pure passer-by, I have played "End Mist 10" and feel that the overall setting is very careful. 20 will only do better on that basis? There is not enough evidence in this post, everyone, don't be led astray."
"What kind of justice person is pretending upstairs? No matter how the producer of "The Obliteration of Alien Beasts" has produced works before, okay, ywy has a fart?"
"If you have a butt, then sell it."
…
Pei Yi looked at these posts, and the coldness in her eyes froze again.
Patchwork revelations, illegal candid videos, deliberately blurred points, even so, the wind direction in the post has completely changed under the leadership of the navy.
Obviously, someone is maliciously leading public opinion!
After finishing the phone call, Bo Yueming lightly pressed his lover's wrist, "Pei Yi, are you okay?"
"It's okay, this bit of verbal criticism can't defeat me." Pei Yi still has a strong mentality in his career, "Second brother."
"Um?"
"Just wait and see! I can turn a crisis into an opportunity, and it will be resolved."
Without any doubt, Bo Yueming gently clasped his hand.
When the two arrived at YWY, Li Yu'an, who had come one step earlier, had already summoned the relevant staff and waited in the conference room.
When everyone saw Bo Yueming's appearance, they were a little surprised.
Bo Yueming was concise and to the point, "I'm involved in this matter, so I can't just sit idly by and treat it like I'm here on behalf of GM to negotiate a solution."
Li Yu'an and Pei Yi met each other's eyes and sat down.
Xiang Nansheng took the initiative to say, "I've already checked, and many of them are rumors of trolls, but the IP addresses are different, and even the registration period of the account is different."
You know, the doubts in the forum come first, and the breaking news is posted later.
Even if the subsequent follow-up posts contain some false elements, but under the leadership of "netizens" with accounts with almost no loopholes—
Those real ordinary game netizens can easily fall into misunderstandings, which is also known as "being brainwashed and biased".
"Now not only the gamers of "Cang Hai Guan", but also the game fans of the producers of other games such as "Obliteration of Alien Beasts" have also decided that we are the ones who walked through the back door."
Since last night, players have been furiously denouncing Ywy Studio.
A staff member in charge of online publicity asked, "Mr. Yi, what should we do now? How about we issue a clarification as soon as possible?"
Pei Yi asked back, "We didn't do anything wrong, what should we clarify?"
Such unfocused clarification will only make players believe that they are evading the facts with a guilty conscience.
Another employee said uncertainly, "Clarify your... your relationship with Mr. Bo?"
Bo Yueming shook his head, "The relationship between me and Pei Yi is not the point, the point is that most of the netizens now credulously believe in revelations—"
Pei Yi answered, "It's decided that I and our studio's games have gone through the back door and won gold-plated awards."
There are shady scenes and back doors, which are the focus of righteous indignation among netizens in the game circle.
Of course, the serious relationship between the two needs to be explained to the outside world, but there is no need to worry for the time being.
In case the netizens would only follow the clues to find out Bo Yueming's identity, based on Bo's influence in the imperial circle, I am afraid that some false misunderstandings will be deepened.
Li Yu'an believed in his friend's ability, "Pei Yi, do you have any plans?"
Pei Yi looked at him, "Liyuan, who do you think is playing tricks?"
Li Yu'an reported the most clear answer, "Ke Ming, play games with Nanchan standing behind his studio."
This time, the public opinion tried to "take it for granted" that "The Last Mist" has gone through the back door, as a doomsday escape game that is destined to have competition after it goes online—
They stumbled, and the one who benefited the most during the same period would be "Destroy the Alien Beast".
Pei Yi raised her eyebrows, "That's right, but I want to remind you one thing."
Some employees were puzzled, "What?"
"The current netizens are not fools. Even if they are misled for a while, they will be able to realize the subtleties of this sooner or later."
"The wave of "Killing the Alien Beast" seems to be suppressing me through the hands of "Cang Hai Guan" and netizens who are dissatisfied with the award results. In fact, it is also sending myself to a higher level of scrutiny."
"When the water rises, the boat rises, but if the water rises too high, the boat will capsize."
The ones who are at a disadvantage now are their ywy and "The Last Mist", but this is not necessarily a bad thing.
Ascending must fall heavily, and bottoming out can rebound.
— sizzle.
Bo Yueming's WeChat vibrated, he checked his phone, and finally launched the first counterattack for his lover.
"In the case of no wrongdoing, a low-profile clarification is far inferior to a high-profile prosecution."
"I have asked my assistant Lin Zhong to take screenshots of the posting user and the related users on the 'false revelations' floor. Now they are handed over to the relevant legal team. I will communicate with your studio later."
Pei Yi continued to speak out the plan he had thought up, "Liyuan, help me contact Mufeng Games."
"It's best to have a video connection with Mr. Deng in person to explain the real situation. It won't take long, and maybe our two families will agree to the outside world."
Mufeng Game is indeed the most innocent "victim" in this competition, but the "injurer" has never been someone else.
Li Yu'an understood what his friend meant, "Okay."
Lou Yang, who had been listening all the time, cut into another key point, "Mr. Yi, now netizens are obsessed with the "Original Game Design Competition" to explain the situation. If the official really blames us, what should we do?"
Pei Yi shook his head, "It's not very likely, at most it's a dead duck's mouth insisting that the result of the competition is fair and just."
Which official would be willing to give up his reputation? What about admitting your mistakes?
Lou Yang was still a little worried, "Even if it's what you said, it doesn't mean that Ke Ming won't continue to throw the blame unscrupulously."
"Sister Yang, don't worry, I naturally have a solution."
Pei Yi understands Lou Yang's concerns, but she already has a countermeasure in her heart—
The reason why Ke Ming dares to be so blatant is because he has the backing of Nanchan Game and even stronger Xunya Technology.
What if he lost his two backers? Or had to give up because of interests?
During the silence, Li Yu'an spoke again, "Pei Yi! Take a look!"
He handed over the phone, "The official account of Cicada Studio suddenly announced that "Killing the Alien Beast" will be released tomorrow!"
As soon as these words came out, Xiang Nansheng and the others who were sitting in their seats were startled, and they all took out their phones to check the situation—
"Go directly to the public beta?"
"If I remember correctly, they seem to have only passed the first round of internal testing, and they confirmed that there is no problem with this game? Is this a little too confident?"
"Confidence? Why do I think this is too aggressive?"
When Pei Yi heard everyone's discussion, a subtle light overflowed from the end of his eyes.
Instead of expressing his thoughts, he gave the right to speak to Xiang Nansheng, who had worked with Ke Ming, "Director Xiang, what do you think?"
Xiang Nansheng shook his head slightly, "Ke Ming is gambling."
He still has a certain understanding of this old friend, "Ke Ming is betting on this wave of traffic, and wants to take advantage of the game players' dislike of "The Last Mist" at this stage, and compare it to establish the favorability and existence of "Obliteration of Alien Beasts" feel."
"If he can win the bet, he will seize most of the audience in this wave of the market ahead of us, and the plagiarism and plagiarism he has been involved in will become a disadvantageous factor for us because of the 'launch time difference'."
Pei Yi tapped the table twice, loudly, "So, he must lose this bet."
Pei Yi had long expected that the other party would release the game in advance, so she was willing to hold the evidence but held back.
But he didn't expect that Ke Ming would be more aggressive than he imagined, actually two months earlier than the original public beta?
Want to become fat with one bite? No! He sent the opportunity to counterattack early!
Pei Yi's expression changed seriously, "Listen, all departments, the first round of internal testing, which was originally scheduled for half a month later, will be brought forward!"
"I asked to expand the number and age group of the internal test players, and the servers running in the first round must be able to eat enough, and there should be no problems."
"There are also warm-up copywriting and cg animations that must be confirmed, and the media promotion side must also send someone to follow closely."
In order to ensure the playability of the game, Pei Yi will not rush into the same way as Ke Ming, ignoring the internal test and go online, but it does not mean that he cannot use the internal test to preempt and attract gamers in this wave of exposure as much as possible.
First let Ke Ming and "Destroy the Alien Beast" open the way for them in the market, and then step on each other's shoulders to reach the top, this is called the real—
The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the oriole follows behind!
"Before this Friday, all must be in place, and now the meeting will be adjourned immediately, and each department will do its own business."
Pei Yi's mentality was completely unaffected by Internet public opinion, and there was no trace of panic on his face as if he was facing a big enemy.
Infected by his leadership, everyone responded in unison, "Yes!"
…
The door of the conference room was closed again, and only Pei Yi and Bo Yueming were left in an instant.
Looking at each other, Bo Yueming first flashed a smile.
"What are you laughing at?"
Pei Yi handed the cold coffee to her lover, "Second Brother, I always feel that you are becoming more and more smiling."
Bo Yueming took it with one hand, and pulled him in front of him, "I just didn't expect that my little husband would handle things like this at work."
It is different from the cute appearance shown in private, and it is also different from the usual cunning when facing outsiders.
At work, Pei Yi is mature, courageous and charming, which also catches his eyes.
Pei Yi shook his hand and joked, "Boss, I really need your help with something serious."
Hearing this unfamiliar address, Bo Yueming felt helpless, "Alright, don't yell like those leaking posters."
When this wave of public opinion is over, he must find out the shady cameraman and let him be punished by the law!
Pei Yi moved closer and changed her words, "Honey, have you ever heard of a theory called six degrees of separation?"
Bo Yueming was pleased by this statement, "I know."
A simple explanation is that there will be no more than six people between 'I' and strangers, and there will be a relationship chain.
He saw through his lover's small thoughts, "Tell me, who is blocking your way?"
"You Chang."
Facing Bo Yueming, Pei Yi didn't hide the slightest bit. He wanted Ke Ming to stumble completely, and he had to completely cut off the backer that the other party thought he was awesome——
Xunya Technology has always been hindered by Weiyi's countermeasures, so it may not be able to really make efforts to protect the copyright of Chanming Studio and a small game "Destroy the Alien Beast".
What Pei Yi really needs to be wary of is Nanchan Game, which is cooperating with Ke Ming, and the person in power behind it, the unknown You Chang.
Pei Yi looked at Bo Yueming, and gave a bright reminder, "Second brother, don't you think the surname 'You' sounds familiar? I heard that You Chang is also from Wencheng, is it a coincidence?"
Bo Yueming understood what he meant, "Well, it's quite a coincidence."
Coincidentally, someone can help them solve this trouble they have never met.
…
In the technologically decorated office, Ke Ming is leaning leisurely on a custom-made office chair, with a computer screen on and a video chat in front of him.
On the other side of the screen was a young man with a gentle face but narrow and cold eyes.
"Mr. You, thank you for your support." Ke Ming raised the wine glass in his hand, his expression full of confidence, "I just said, there is nothing wrong with going online early."
Long before participating in the original game design competition, "Obliteration of Alien Beast" had undergone a round of internal testing, and through the special relationship of Xunya Technology, it was qualified for official release.
Later, when he met Li Yu'an and the others at the Haishi Hotel, Ke Ming felt an indescribable familiarity with Will.
After sending someone to investigate secretly, he got a truth that was no longer a secret—
&l is Pei Yi! He was the one who had participated in the GM bidding back then, and even concealed his identity and pretended to be crazy! This person was watching his own joke from the beginning!
Ke Ming, who learned about this, was shocked and angry, and even extended a gambling plan just around the corner.
He must release this long-prepared game early, seize the opportunity at all costs, and make Pei Yi and Li Yu'an his own defeats!
Release on the shelves without further internal testing? How can this work?
This crazy and aggressive idea caused protests from many employees, and even dissatisfied the Nanchan Game team. Only You Chang gave him absolute support.
After summing up, the two first used the failure of "Cang Hai Guan" in the competition to arouse criticism, and then used the 100% real and 90% fake fabrics to pour a wave of dirty water on Pei Yi!
Not only that, they took advantage of the players' regrets and praises for "Canghaiguan", and used the professional sailors to create a wave of enthusiasm, secretly poking and boasting about their own game.
Finally, at the moment when the game circle was most emotional and easy to get on top of, it was announced that "Destroy the Alien Beast" would be released in advance!
One link after another has become the steps leading them to the gambling field, and the current facts have proved——
They bet right!
From its launch on Tuesday to today's Friday, the number of registered users has exceeded 1.2 million, and the number of online users at the same time has exceeded 800,000!
For a mobile game that has only been online for three days, it is definitely a good start worth cheering for!
You Chang on the other side of the screen toasted and responded, "Mr. Ke, you still can't take it lightly. Don't forget the initial investment of our two companies, and the additional expenses added in the past few days."
In the past, there were water soldiers who framed Pei Yi and "The Last Mist", and later there were water soldiers who promoted "Kill the Alien Beast". They spent a lot of money on "propaganda" expenses.
"Mr. You, don't worry! Tonight at 8 o'clock, the all-round krypton gold channel for props will be opened."
Ke Ming raised his eyebrows, complacently estimating the results of the upcoming victory, "According to the increase in the number of users, we can return millions of dollars in just two days on the weekend."
Although compared with the initial investment, it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket, but for mobile games, it depends on the long-term benefits and market share.
There are not many original doomsday survival games of the same type in Huaguo, and the only one that can compete with it, "The Last Mist", even if it can slow down the public opinion, it has already missed the market opportunity.
Even if they do it maliciously, even if people will find out later, so what?
Which game on the market does not touch right and wrong? There are many people who are popular, and the game is the same, that is the treatment that only hits deserve!
You Chang on the other side of the screen wanted to explain something, but the phone on the table vibrated suddenly, and he glanced at the caller ID, his eyes changed nervously for a moment.
"Mr. Ke, let's come here first today, and we'll talk later when you have time. You should pay more attention to the release of the game."
"certainly."
The video chat hangs up.
Ke Ming glanced at the time in the lower right corner. It was 5:30, only half an hour before the official opening of the krypton gold channel.
He drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp, and before he could fully vent the joy in his heart, he was stopped by the sudden knock on the door.
The secretary rushed in with an anxious expression, and threw out a sentence without thinking—
"Mr. Ke! It's not good! Something serious happened!"
