Game Design: Is it possible? CaiGou

Chapter 313: Mountain City Gameplay: Surrender and lose half (Please subscribe)

Interesting, this operation is really interesting!

This is……

I'm so desperate that I'm going to make a small report instead?

Liu Shu sat on the sofa and looked through the joint complaint documents from the four companies. The expression on his face was very interesting.

Although Wang Hao was curious when he saw this, he didn't say anything. Instead, he filled Liu Shu's thermos with water and placed it closer to Liu Shu so that Liu Shu could drink tea at any time.

A quarter of an hour later, Liu Shu turned to the last page of the document, closed the document and handed it to Wang Hao:

"It's interesting, you should take a look."

When Wang Hao heard this, he quickly took the document and handed the thermos cup to Liu Shu immediately. Then he sat on the sofa nearby and looked through the documents.

Liu Shu took a sip of tea and said with a smile:

"In the beginning, a total of 18 domestic and foreign game companies followed Penguin Game Platform to collectively condemn Taipingdao. In the end, nothing happened. When other game companies apologized, they did not think of complaining to us."

"Later, these four game companies joined forces to weigh up Taiping Dao. They played several games in a row. It can be said that Cai Gou crushed them in every game. When we were playing in the ring, I didn't expect to find the game office of the Entertainment Office. Justice."

"Up to now, Taipingdao has really taken the initiative and shown off its true character. When these four game companies saw that Ark: Survival Evolved has 9 DLCs, they immediately became scared, and then they remembered that there is actually a gaming office in the Entertainment Office that can host it. justice."

"Do you think it's funny or not?"

Wang Hao heard this, with a disdainful smile on his lips, and echoed: "Director, the reason they are looking for is really high-sounding. What do you mean, Taipingdao disrupts the normal operations of other game companies and maliciously hinders the orderly development of other game companies."

"Didn't they do this kind of thing first in the beginning? Will this fall on them and make them scream louder? If you want me to say, don't worry about them, this complaint will be dismissed directly."

"Eh, that won't work." Liu Shu shook his head and said, "This is the responsibility of our Game Office of the Entertainment Office. We just received the complaint today and immediately responded to that outrageous complaint."

"Ah? Do you really want to accept this complaint and go investigate Taiping Road?" Wang Hao showed a bit of surprise on his face.

Put aside his personal relationship with Cai Gou, and put aside Liu Shu's personal relationship with Cai Gou.

It’s just Taipingdao’s efforts and contributions to the entire game industry in recent years, as well as the close cooperation between the military, schools, aerospace and many other departments and Taipingdao.

The Game Office of the Entertainment Office rushed to investigate. I am afraid that such a game company with a good reputation in the industry may be inappropriate in public opinion.

Maybe it would make people think that it is the game office of the entertainment office, where all the good birds are hiding, and the cunning rabbits are dead and the lackeys are cooking. If this is really the case, are they unjust?

"What are you thinking about? I didn't say I would take care of it, but..." Liu Shu explained: "We can't just take care of it now."

"You mean...stretching?"

"Well, stretch it out for a while, and find a reason to fight it back after a while." Liu Shu said, "This is their business, there is no reason for me to help them."

Wang Hao heard this and nodded with a smile. He already fully understood what was going on. Director Liu was also impatient with the jumping up and down of these four game companies.

Liu Shu looked at Wang Hao with a half-smile and asked, "What if these four game companies ask about the progress midway?"

Wang Hao said seriously: "Don't worry, I will explain everything. We will be enthusiastic and polite to all their inquiries. We will not answer any question."

The complaint was submitted to the Game Office of the Cultural and Entertainment Office, but it was like nothing happened.

one day.

Three days.

five days.

After five full days and nights, Zheng Min still didn't wait for the news he wanted from the Entertainment Office.

Qian Rui, Jiang Zhihao, and Liu Mufeng also called him every once in a while to inquire about the situation, but he didn't have any additional information, and his eyes were still blank.

There was no movement here, but the noise on Taiping Road became louder and louder.

The day after the large-scale DLC live broadcast conference, Taipingdao launched Stardew Valley’s third large-scale expansion DLC [Eastscape], and the first DLC of Ark: Survival Evolved [Aberration].

The two extremely high-quality DLCs have received extraordinary response. The popularity, traffic, and popularity have continuously fed back to the main bodies of these two games, further increasing their sales.

Stardew Valley is okay, after all, the audience is only so large. [Eastscape] seems to be for sale, but in fact it is free, and it doesn't make much money.

But Ark: Survival Evolved is different. The game is currently very popular, and the survival and construction genre is also a well-established track. It has a large audience of players, so the news of the first DLC is naturally very loud.

What's more, [Distortion] is the most difficult among the nine DLCs that the old thief personally admitted. This naturally arouses the curiosity of the audience players even more.

At present, because the four leading companies have not released new games, [Aberration] is priced at 37 yuan, but there are still many players buying it, which has a huge boost to the sales of Ark: Survival Evolved.

The [Distortion] DLC takes players to experience a completely different Arkworld, which also makes players more curious about the scenery of the Arkworld in the other eight DLCs.

According to what the old thief said at the large-scale DLC live broadcast conference, the cooling period for DLC sales can be a full month.

As the saying goes, one day is like three autumns, so where can the players wait?

During this period, players just like clocking in and out every day, went to the official Weibo comment area of ​​the four leading companies and left messages.

Public opinion fermented, and there was no sign of stopping, but it became more and more intense.

On the other hand, there was no response to the complaint to the Office of Entertainment and Games.

This made Zheng Min anxious...

There was no way, he could only call the relevant department of the Office of Entertainment and Games to inquire about the situation.

"Hello, this is the complaint management department under the Office of Entertainment and Games. What can I do for you?"

"Hey, hello, I am Zheng Min, the president of Qingshan Game Company. Five days ago, Qingshan and Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi jointly complained to the Office of Entertainment and Games about Taipingdao. I want to ask why there is still no response after five working days?"

After learning that it was this matter, the staff member who answered the phone immediately called the superior leader in accordance with the instructions of the previous department leader.

The superior leader took the phone and strictly followed the instructions of Director Liu Shu. He talked enthusiastically and politely, and knew nothing about the incident.

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Min was a little discouraged. After a long call, he got a reply that the work process was in progress.

Zheng Min carefully recalled the staff's words during the phone call.

Recalling the achievements that Taipingdao has made at the official level over the years and the contributions it has made to the official, he couldn't help but sigh.

This third path seems to be difficult to take...

Qingshan Game Company, small conference room.

Qian Rui sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, smoking a lady's cigarette in an irritable mood.

Jiang Zhihao folded his hands in front of his chest and closed his eyes to rest, but his shaking legs showed that he was not calm inside.

Liu Mufeng held a bottle of beer in his hand and drank it in big gulps, trying to numb himself with the power of alcohol.

After waiting for a week, the four people called again and again to ask, but the response of the game office of the Cultural and Entertainment Office was consistent, and they were going through the process.

The three people were forced by the players and public opinion and had no choice but to come to Zheng Min to see if there was any other way.

"What? What did you say? Not to be processed? Returned the original route? What does this mean?"

"You don't do things this way, do you? After dragging it out for half a month, you give me this answer?"

"Why not deal with it..."

At this moment, the three people's eyes glanced at Zheng Min in front of the French window from time to time.

Zheng Min was angry at the phone and shouted loudly, but after a lot of useless work, he could only hang up the phone helplessly, walked to the sofa, and said helplessly:

"The call just now was external, and you also heard what the Entertainment Office Game Office said? I didn't expect that they dragged it out for a full twelve days, and in the end it would be like this."

"The complaint was returned the original route and not processed, so we negotiated with Taiping Dao in a friendly manner."

Zheng Min thought that after hearing this news, the reaction of the three people present would be very big, but he didn't expect that the expressions of the three people did not change at all.

"What's going on? Did you hear what I said?"

Facing the puzzled Zheng Min, Qian Rui crushed the lady's cigarette in her hand and whispered:

"Old Zheng, we are not fools. I also called the leaders of the game office of the Cultural and Entertainment Bureau no less than five times a few days ago, and the answers I got were all the same. In fact, I knew what was going on at that time."

Liu Mufeng sighed: "Me too. In fact, objectively looking at the contribution that Taipingdao has made to the game industry in recent years, it is not surprising to hear this result today."

At this moment, the four people recalled the famous scene of the movie Kung Fu Soccer in their minds.

Gymnasium, football field.

In the audience, Qiang Xiong wore sunglasses, cigar in his mouth, and smiled sinisterly: "The referee, the circumstantial witness, plus the organizer, co-organizer, all the units, are all my people, how can you fight me?"

At this moment, it was just like that moment.

Zheng Min smiled bitterly and said, "What should we do? This matter is stuck here?"

Zheng Min, who has always been the most resourceful of the four, has expressed his attitude like this, so how can the other three think of a solution?

Just when the four of them looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Knock knock!"

The door of the conference room was pushed open, and the secretary walked in holding a mobile phone, looking embarrassed.

"Who asked you to come in?" Zheng Min said unhappily.

"Mr. Zheng, phone call."

"Whose phone call?"

"Mr. Cai's phone call."

Zheng Min sat up and asked, "Which Mr. Cai?"

"Mr. Cai of Taipingdao." The secretary stood there nervously and said carefully:

"Mr. Cai just called the company and asked for you by name."

The four looked at each other, all puzzled.

Zheng Min took the phone, waved to let the secretary leave, took a deep breath and asked, "Mr. Cai, what advice do you have for me this time?"

The other three hurried to Zheng Min's side, listening to this call that might be related to the survival of the company with an urgent look.

"It's not about advice. The purpose of Taipingdao has always been to learn from friendly companies." Cai Gou's playful laughter came from the other end of the phone.

Zheng Min's face darkened, and he said in an extremely unhappy tone: "If you, Mr. Cai, made this call to mock me, then I'm sorry, we have nothing to talk about, I'm hanging up."

"Wait, why are you so anxious?" Cai Gou smiled calmly: "From the beginning to the end, it seems that I have never been the one who took the initiative to stir up trouble? What? I just said one sentence, and you can't stand it?"

"You can hang up this phone, but you have to think clearly about the consequences, right?"

Zheng Min wanted to hang up the phone very forcefully, but in the visible future, the consequences would be really terrible. He hesitated for a long time and asked, "What do you want?"

"Apologize!"

"What?"

"If you want to change this story, you four game companies can take the initiative to send scarves to Taiping Dao to apologize."

To apologize at this time would be a complete embarrassment to grandma’s house.

Zheng Min said sternly: "Hand out a scarf to apologize? Cai Gou, you..."

"What are you?" Cai Gou no longer wanted to engage in confrontation with them: "Let's talk about it."

"I didn't force you to enter this arena. On the contrary, you took the initiative. You have the final say when this thing starts, and I have the final say when it ends."

"Don't think that the opportunity I gave you today is a sign of submission. On the contrary, this is an ultimatum. If you don't agree, shall we continue?"

After hearing these words, Zheng Min, who is strong on the outside and hard on the inside, immediately gave in and could no longer be tough:

"Baihua, Wutong, Fengqi, the bosses of the three game companies are here with me. You can give us some time to discuss it."

"No problem, one minute!" Cai Gou said like a devil: "If you don't give your answer after one minute, I will assume that you don't want to apologize. As for the consequences of not wanting to apologize, you also know."

When Zheng Min heard this, he no longer refuted, but looked at the other three people. The call was put out just now, and they all listened to Cai Gou's words.

There is no need to wait a minute. Not even a fool can understand the current situation. It is better to be embarrassed than to close the door.

It's better to have an inconvenient step to go down than to have no steps at all.

The four of them didn't talk, they just looked at each other, and each of them had the answer in their mind.

"Okay, we agree."

After saying this, Zheng Min felt relieved and felt a little relieved.

"Wise choice, by the way, remember to mention the impact of the Penguin Game Platform on you when you apologize. This is a notice, not a discussion."

"Dududu..."

Before Zheng Min could answer, Cai Gou hung up the phone.

What does the last sentence mean?

Dotiti Penguin Game Platform?

"That's not good..." Liu Mufeng said, "It's already bad enough to apologize, but also to stab us in the back. What do our colleagues think of us?"

"How can this be considered a backstab?" Qian Rui argued:

"Looking at the source of this matter, wasn't it instigated by him, Penguin Gaming Platform? Without him, Zheng Jingming would have had so many things happen now? Would we have ended up in this situation?"

Jiang Zhihao said bitterly: "And from the beginning to the end, he Zheng Jingming never said a word. We are all benevolent and just tell the truth when we apologize. What kind of backstabbing?"

Liu Mufeng wanted to retort after hearing this, but Zheng Min smiled bitterly and said:

"Xiao Liu, don't you understand? This is a notice, not a discussion. Only if the apology contains Penguin Game Platform, it is considered a qualified apology, do you understand?"

"If you don't understand, Cai Gou won't teach you a second time."

Liu Mufeng thought for a long time and nodded with a wry smile: "I understand, this trick is called surrendering and losing half..."
