Build a game empire from scratch

Qiao Nanyu discussed with Shen Ping about the charity sale.

In fact, there is no complicated process, just set up a second-hand e-commerce page, the things are cheaper, every transaction is made public, and finally all the money earned is used for charity, and no cents are left.

Not only can it not be left, no matter how much it sells, Yunmeng will post 10 times more.

Anyway, compared to the charity run by Yunmeng and Journey Prosthetics, this amount of money is not even a drop in the bucket.

In other words, [the gift from the player] has a special meaning, so we have to be so cautious when handling it.

Yunmeng even arranged five rooms according to the specifications of high-level archives, which are specially used to store letters from players.

——Also organized according to the different games they belong to.

It may be a bit contradictory to say that, under Lin You's example, the developers of Yunmeng are merciless in cheating players in the game, but they treat players very seriously in reality.

Shen Ping handed over the task and asked someone to connect with the warehouse manager. After looking at the data dynamics of "Dark Soul", the players were still making noise, so they waited for more than half an hour. At 10 o'clock sharp At that time, the promotional video of "Gravity" was released on all platforms.

The account of "Gravity" was naturally registered early, but now it obviously has 0 followers.

But this is not a problem at all. The next moment, Yunmeng's official account forwarded it directly.

This kind of operation will happen once every new game is released, and the operation department has long been used to it.

Even Lingxi's operation and maintenance department is used to it. Seeing the sudden surge in traffic and being steadily eaten by the dynamic expansion system, they all showed satisfaction.

I even want to make a cup of coffee and hold it elegantly in my hand and blow the hot air.

...

Qianzuru blew on the freshly brewed instant coffee, carefully placed it near her mouth to test the temperature.

"Oh! It's hot!"

She quickly put down the coffee, intending to wait for it to cool down before drinking it.

Qianhe desperately needs a cup of coffee to refresh himself right now.

Last night, she took Xinxin to visit her virtual house, introduced a bunch of modern furniture to her, and spent a lot of time explaining the difference between "modern" and "flying", and played with Xinxin Nuan Nuan, I tried a suit of clothes over and over again, tossing and tossing until very late before going offline to sleep.

So this morning she was in a bad mood and almost overslept and was late.

After surviving a difficult commute and coming to the company, her social life also made her miserable, and she began to think about whether she should hug Senior Xia Yi's lap and become an anchor.

Although the competition in this industry is fierce, she has thighs!

Moreover, she has successively provided two major pieces of information about [Silver of Sacrifice] and [Dancing with Dragons], and her popularity is taking off on a flat basis. It is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It's just that considering that the anchor industry is also exhausting, and she is in Izumo, she finally got a lifetime employment contract, and suddenly she wants to give up her main job and become an anchor, it really takes a lot of determination.

——Although she also suffers from liver games after get off work, but purely playing games and being a professional anchor are actually very different.

Just look at the difference between Xia Yi's status during the live broadcast and after the live broadcast is turned off. It's really not an easy job.

Of course, this is not always the case.

For example, Qianhe knows: If Water Flower decides to be the anchor, she doesn't need to prepare anything, as soon as the broadcast starts, she is likely to become the top anchor in an instant...

It's still the kind of big anchors from all walks of life to join in the fun.

But this Chizuru is really envious.

After all, there is only one lady of luck in the virtual world, who is being chased and fed by God.

——or, in other words, he was being chased by Lin You to feed him...

After all, the princess and Lin You are about to become a family, and Shui Hua and the princess are good best friends. This relationship...

Qianhe shook his head, took back his wild thoughts, took a small sip of coffee, and then put on a serious expression. Under the cover of several office documents, he opened a Lily novel and looked at it seriously. .

Until Yunmeng APP suddenly popped up a notification, causing the phone to vibrate.

Qianhe thought that Xinxin had done something, quickly picked up the phone, and was surprised to see that it was Yunmeng who released a promotional video for a new game.

She decisively closed the page of Lily's novel, got up and walked to the bathroom.

——Of course it’s impossible to watch this at the workstation, this is Izumo!

It was only delayed for less than a minute. When Qianhe opened the promotional video, he could already see the dense barrage——

"I'm super! It's a new game!"

"Another surprise attack!"

"I'm drowsy, but I'm refreshed!"

"It's such a blessing to see the new game on Monday!"

"High-energy warning ahead! It is recommended to turn off the barrage to enjoy!"

"There is a superb view ahead!"

...

Before Qianhe had time to block the barrage, a huge earth suddenly appeared on the screen!

It looked—so close!

This is a very strange feeling-you know very well that your perspective is space, hundreds of kilometers away from the earth, but on an astronomical scale, this distance is surprisingly close, almost within reach.

At this distance, you can't even see the whole picture of the earth, you can only see half of it - because the phone screen can't fit it!

Qianhe quickly blocked the barrage and concentrated on watching the promotional video.

A space shuttle floats in from outside the camera, and three astronauts in spacesuits are working outside the cabin, one of whom is also flying leisurely around the space shuttle in a manned maneuvering device.

The camera zoomed in, not at the old man flying around, but at the figure who was busy on the mechanical arm.

The camera continued to zoom in, and a close-up of the face appeared.

"I am super! Xin Linghua!" In A Yi's live broadcast room, he exclaimed on the spot.

Not only he was exclaiming, but the barrage in the promotional video and the live broadcast room were all exclaiming.

——In the context of the global space race, there are several rounds of astronauts going to space every month. In the early stages of danger, each astronaut has a huge national and even global popularity.

But now that it is normalized, unless it is an accidental death, the popularity will have certain limitations.

After all, no matter what, once there are many, it will not be so rare...

But because Lin You went to space that time, the commander was Xin Linghua, which caused Xin Linghua's popularity to surpass that of other astronauts by a large margin.

Now it's just an appearance, and everyone recognizes it instantly.

In Xiajing Aerospace Center, a group of people surrounded Xin Linghua, and Xin Linghua pointed to his face on the phone: "Look! I'm not bragging!"

"I've said it a long time ago. Lin You called me to beg me at the beginning, so he wanted me to help you."

"You said that they were all good brothers who went to space together, and they were almost killed by space junk together, so can I help?!"

"We also want to show loyalty!"

"That's enough, that's enough!" A few people around him rubbed his dog's head relentlessly, "I can't stop blowing!"

"I'm afraid it wasn't that Lin You opened his mouth, and you ran over in a hurry, don't we know you yet?!"

Before the astronauts went into space, they ate, lived, and trained together, and even knew what color underwear the other party liked to wear. How could they not know what kind of personality Xin Linghua actually had behind his serious appearance?

So now when I start complaining, I don't show mercy at all.

"Look down, look down."

Next, the quiet and silent picture, the sound of music suddenly sounded, and in just a few seconds, it became hurried.

Netizens didn't know what happened, but everyone saw that the three astronauts became nervous and moved a little faster, as if a crisis was coming.

The three gathered quickly, but they still couldn't escape the crisis——

The camera is facing Xin Linghua with a tense face, and the rushing music is suddenly interrupted at the climax. Behind him, the astronaut who is moving down the ladder suddenly tilts his head, twitches his limbs, and jumps off the ladder. Departed and drifted into the distance.

Fortunately, the safety rope tied to his body caught him and prevented him from drifting into the endless deep space.

The next moment, the music sounded again, and it was more urgent and high-pitched.

The human voice finally joined in——

"Nie Dong!!"

"Nie Dong was hit!"

"Back to the cabin! Back to the cabin! I'll save him!"

"Zi—do not rescue—zi—return to the cabin immediately, Xia Jing demands—zi—everyone returns to the cabin immediately—zi—evacuate as soon as possible..."

"In time! I have a mobile device, in time..."

...

The high-pitched music, the anxious dialogue, the noise of electromagnetic interference...all the sounds are mixed together, making it dizzying.

And then--

The explosion happened!

There was no fire, no light, and no sound.

But the entire space shuttle and the unidentified space device below the plane, like being bombed by an invisible bomb, began to explode one after another!

Before the players realized what was going on, the astronauts around Xin Linghua at the space center fell silent.

When they saw the first astronaut suddenly attacked, they already understood what happened——

Space junk.

Space junk that moves at a speed of several kilometers per second is an "invisible weapon" because it is too fast and too small for human eyes to catch.

But such a fast speed also brought amazing destructive power!

Now on the screen, the entire spacecraft exploded and shattered under the baptism of raindrops of sky garbage, which is the most intuitive and terrifying display of power.

Rationality told them: this kind of thing can't happen - how could a place with such an empty space be attacked by such dense space junk?

But such a real picture, they couldn't help but bring it into it, thinking about what to do if they encountered such a terrible situation?

That's why they fell silent.

Because there is no way to deal with it.

— There is no second result except death.

That is a Jedi with no support, not even air!

Another small-scale explosion caused the originally stable mechanical arm to lose its support and become a big pendulum in an amusement park, dragging the protagonist Xin Linghua and starting to spin wildly.

The screen also switched to the first-person perspective, and the camera began to spin around. The water-blue earth appeared and disappeared quickly in front of the eyes, making people dizzy.

Then the camera looks down, looking at the seat belt around the protagonist's waist.

Two big hands appeared, spinning around, trying to unbuckle the seat belt, and then——

Was thrown out in an instant!

The sky is still spinning, but—the distance from the spacecraft is getting farther and farther!

Every time the angle of view turns around, the sizeable clean white space shuttle will become smaller, and after a few turns, it will not even be visible.

And in the direction where the protagonist is thrown, there is nothing but endless deep space!

The screen began to switch rapidly, and at the same time, large characters appeared——

【Space】

[SPACE]

The angle of view suddenly zoomed out. The tragic accident seen at close range before, from this angle of view, was just a few tiny fragments quietly appearing on an aircraft the size of a fingernail.

It looks so insignificant!

【disaster】

[DISASTER]

View inside the space shuttle for the first time.

Here, the impact damage of space junk becomes intuitive and terrifying!

The space where the astronauts depended for survival was destroyed, the solid metal walls were smashed into big holes, the siren was whining, the instruments failed one after another, and teammates died one after another...

Without warning, and unstoppable.

【escape】

[ESCAPE]

The angle of view returns to the protagonist's position again, he no longer rotates, but looking around, there is nothing.

Nothing familiar but the earth.

Even the alarm sounded on the wrist-the oxygen indicator in the spacesuit had turned red.

【survive】

[SURVIVE]

The picture was still pitch black, Yunmeng didn't show the protagonist successfully surviving, but skipped to the ending subtitle in the pitch black——

【April 11】

[Global Simultaneous Release]

【Stay tuned】!

After another two seconds of silence, a trembling and shocking voice suddenly sounded in the completely dark picture:

"What it is?!"

——

This is the end of the promo.

The astronauts on Xin Linghua's side were still silent.

After a while, someone asked:

"Old Xin, can you survive this situation???"

Others also weighed in:

"That's right! The spacecraft was destroyed, and he was thrown into space alone. The oxygen is still in a fucking emergency. This thing can still live? Is it nonsense?!"

"I can't figure it out anyway, no matter how I think about it, I will definitely die."

"Old Xin, tell me quickly."

...

Friends around started booing.

But Xin Linghua just said in embarrassment: "I also...don't know. I just went to help shoot the promotional video. I was the protagonist once, and I haven't really played this game."

"Oh... can you do it, you!"

A bunch of people immediately hated him.

...

The thoughts of these professional astronauts are also the mainstream thoughts of netizens——

"I just can't figure out how a person can survive being thrown into space!"

“[Space Disaster Survival], what kind of brain hole does this have to come up with this type of game?”

"Is there any need to think about it? Didn't Lin You get hit by space junk when he was in space before? I guess he was inspired at that time?"

"Fuck, I seem to understand a little bit, 'I can't be attacked by space junk alone, and the whole world will be unlucky with me', is this the way of thinking?"

"Too vicious!"

"Just ask if you want to buy it or not?!"

"Nonsense, of course I want to buy it! This is the first serious space game, no fool will buy it!"

"But isn't this too fast? Release the promotional video today, and it will be released directly this Friday? Don't you need to test it?"

"Isn't this good?! I can't wait for it to be released in an hour!"

...

In the comment area of ​​the promotional film, the number of players' comments continued to soar, and they had everything to say.

But for Yunmeng's first serious space-themed game, everyone has great enthusiasm.

After all, that's space!

Today, all powerful countries in the world are setting off a space craze.

There have also been countless players leaving messages before, hoping that Yunmeng can develop space games, so that everyone can experience the charm of space.

And now, Yunmeng has finally come up with a space game as everyone wished. Although it is a little different from the space game you imagined, everyone still has a strong curiosity and desire to buy it. .

When the players were enthusiastically commenting, the official account of "Gravity" struck while the iron was hot and released the second news——

[Interesting little information]:

The closed beta for Gravity started at the same time as Dark Souls and ended on the same day.

It has not been released since then, because Mr. Lin You, the chief designer of "Gravity", requested that the existence of this game be announced to the outside world after some players can successfully "smuggle" into the space-time fragments of the "Gravity" world.

And just this morning, the player [Xin Linghua] successfully landed in the world of "Gravity", and the promotional video was unlocked.

——

Then comes the third article——

This time it is Xin Linghua's formal poster.

The poster reads: [Warmly welcome space hero [Xin Linghua], become the promotion ambassador of Yunmeng's first space-themed game "Gravity"! ]——

Netizens were a little confused when they saw these three combos:

"Wait, wait! There's a lot of information, and my brain is a little itchy."

"So, because Xin Linghua successfully landed in space-time fragments, he became the protagonist of the promotional video and the game promotion ambassador?"

"Can it still be like this? Then if I successfully smuggle into other fragments, can I also become the protagonist and promotion ambassador of that game?"

"Doesn't that mean everyone has a chance?"

"??? I'm fucking here!!!"

...

The players are instantly excited!

At this time, the old players who participated in the closed beta of "Gravity" can finally let go of their mouths and talk about some relevant information.

Xia Yi persuaded the fans to adjust their mentality in the live broadcast room: "This game may not be the same as you imagined, it... is difficult!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a striking message popped up in the live broadcast room:

[Anchor anchor, I don’t care whether it’s difficult or not, I just want to ask a question sincerely: According to the common sense of physics, there should be nai in space that don’t sag. Does “Gravity” obey this rule? ]

Xia Yi: "???" (End of this chapter)
