Build a game empire from scratch

Qin Songyun slowly turned his head and looked at Fan Rui.

Obviously, such an outrageous thing is hard to believe at first glance.

But seeing Fan Rui's expression of imminent disaster, he had to accept this terrible reality.

"The boss shouldn't be so cruel, right?" He said uncertainly.

Fan Rui is not optimistic about this.

There were a total of 3,000 questionnaires. Before noon, more than 2,400 questionnaires had been collected, and after the lunch break, 2,738 questionnaires had been collected.

Although there are still more than two hundred copies left, it doesn't matter anymore.

Because [very simple] has opened a gap of more than 1,000 votes with the second place [relatively simple]!

It is impossible for the remaining two hundred or so votes to have any impact on the result.

So after working hours in the afternoon, Lin You came to the "Chang'an" development team again.

"Since the players say it's very easy, the worries about the difficulty of the game can basically be put down."

"Large modifications and adjustments are no longer necessary, and the release date can be determined. Many players are waiting to go crazy."

Although Qin Songyun lost the bet, he still tried to fight for it: "Boss...do you really not want to adjust the difficulty, or add a difficulty option?"

"This week of the closed beta, we asked the colleagues in the development team of "John Wick 2" to try it out. Their mentality was basically broken, and several female colleagues were even beaten to tears by the boss..."

Lin You was very curious about the female employee being beaten and cried by the boss, but now is not the time to gossip.

"Because there is a specialization in the art industry."

"The job of a developer is to develop games, not to play games. Isn't it normal that games are better than players?"

Qin Songyun couldn't beat Lin You.

Having no choice but to follow Lin You's arrangement and ask, "Boss, when do you think it's better to release it?"

"This weekend or next weekend?" Lin You said subconsciously.

But he immediately asked again: "Will it collide with other things?"

"No way." Qin Songyun thought for a while, "At most it will overlap with [World Motorball Competition], but I'm afraid it's hard to avoid."

[World Motorball Competition] officially started last weekend.

At Lin You's request, all players are free to form teams to participate in the audition stage of the [World Mobile Ball Contest].

The amount of prize money in this competition is unprecedentedly rich, and world-renowned sports giants have left the field one after another. This not only has a huge boost to the popularity of the competition, but also the number of participating players is also surging.

This led to the time required for the audition stage, which was also longer than expected.

The main competition of each division will not officially start until next week.

It is worth mentioning that: Lin You originally thought that those star teams from sports giants just participated in the [World Motorball Competition] after training. .

After all, there is a huge difference between sports competitions in the virtual world and sports competitions in reality.

But what surprised him and many players was that in the past few days, none of the well-known giant teams were eliminated!

Yunmeng didn't engage in any secret operations.

——Assigning a weak opponent to a well-known team, Lin You refused from the very beginning.

These giant teams really relied on hard power to win consecutively.

The team named Chelsea even bumped into the British game anchor team very coincidentally.

It is a team of heavy gamers who are well-known in the global player circle. Their game level is quite excellent, and they are all resident commanders of the British theater of "Battlefield" [Peak Battle].

In the eyes of British players, this team has been the seed team of the British division since its establishment.

So much so that before the start of the game, everyone felt that the anchor team was stable, and even Chelsea fans were comforting each other: it’s okay, it’s okay, the responsibility of the team is to play football, this game is just a game, calm down, relax Peace of mind.

But after the game started, things went in a direction that was beyond everyone's expectations——

The 5 players of the Chelsea team tortured the 5 anchors for a whole game!

From the first second of the game to the last second of the game, the anchor team was suppressed from the beginning to the end, and there was no wave.

The "seed team" with high hopes was directly eliminated in the first audition.

The live video of that match blasted the Internet all over the world that day!

The unexpected players immediately analyzed the game and quickly found the reason:

The difference in body shape such as height and leg length is actually very small, and the difference in physical fitness is almost smoothed out by the virtual world. What really opened up the gap between the two teams was the tacit understanding of the teams!

The 5 players of the Chelsea team are no longer on the same level as the anchor team in terms of tacit cooperation!

The motor ball is passed around in their hands, and the opponent is too tired to reach the ball at all!

Soccer teams can still play such a huge advantage, but the rugby and basketball teams that play with their hands are even more adept at maneuvering the ball, crushing their opponents one after another to qualify.

Even in the audition, the competition enthusiasm of these teams is also astonishingly high!

[Mobile ball game] is a new thing after all, and the development of new skills and new tactics takes time.

At this stage, the degree of tacit cooperation is indeed the biggest killer!

Among the players, there are actually quite a few players with outrageous athletic talents and astonishingly good physical coordination——

On the all-glass section of the track, some people can even play a 360° sprint and slide!

That can't be said to be flying over the eaves and walls, it is simply sliding on the ceiling!

Not only is the visual effect amazing, but even relying on one person's strength to turn the tide, dragging the entire team forward!

These players also gained huge popularity in just a few days.

The only regret is that most of these players are scattered.

In a short period of time, it is difficult for them to find teammates who are similar in level to themselves and can quickly develop a tacit understanding.

The audition stage is fine, but once you successfully enter the main match and the intensity of the confrontation increases, the prospects may not be very optimistic...

...

Lin You thought about the popularity of the [World Motorball Contest], and when the main game starts next week, it will probably be even more terrifying. It is really not suitable for the release of "Dark Soul".

But this Friday, it seems a bit hasty.

At this moment, he saw the time when the virtual office was suspended in the air:

"March 26

14::18」

He suddenly had a funny idea——

"You said, how about we announce that "Dark Soul" will be released on April 1?"

"April 1st?" Qin Songyun and Fan Rui's first reaction was a little confused.

— not on Friday, nor on Saturday or Sunday, but on the working day of Tuesday?

What kind of trick is this?

Lin You didn't wait for their answer, and quickly explained his thoughts:

"Let's say it will be released at 8 am on April 1st, but the game will not be launched at that time, but to the players: [Happy April Fool's Day]!"

"When the players believe that this is an April Fool's Day joke, we will be two hours late and then launch the game."

"What's the idea?"

Lin You said enthusiastically, "I feel like I can make a headline for nothing!"

Qin Songyun and Fan Rui were shocked by Lin You's outrageous idea.

This can indeed prostitute Toutiao for nothing, which they fully believe.

But how many blades they would receive from players afterwards, they couldn't even imagine!

However, the two looked at each other and accepted the suggestion.

Anyway, it will be Lin You who will receive the blade...

In addition, they have one more thing they are very worried about——

"Now that the business is over, it's time to fulfill our bet!" Lin You said with a smile, "Are you going to change it now? Or start wearing it tomorrow?"

"Um...boss." Fan Rui said hesitantly, "Plaid skirts...you can, but you shouldn't learn the feudal dross of the Scottish people, right?"

He didn't mention his panties.

But Lin You understood as soon as he heard it, and immediately laughed maliciously: "What do you think? I would like to bet and admit defeat, my friend!"

Qin Songyun and Fan Rui felt ashamed for a moment.

Fortunately, Lin You quickly changed the subject and said, "Well, I'm not a devil, let's take a step back..."

Hearing this, the two of them immediately came back to life, cheered up, and cast longing gazes at Lin You, with "Please let me go" written all over their faces!

Lin You didn't give a shit, and quickly gave a plan of "both sides take a step back":

"You two together can wear a pair of underwear."

"How to divide it specifically, who wears it and who doesn't wear it, or each person wears it in rotation every day..."

"You decide for yourself!"

"?!!" Qin Songyun and Fan Rui's eyes widened instantly.

They were all completely fooled by Lin You's outrageous proposal.
