Game Design: Is it possible? CaiGou

The four game companies, Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, faced the step of surrender given by Cai Gou and lost half of the game. Instead of pretending to be reserved, they immediately adjusted their mentality.

They didn't dare to offend Cai Gou, let alone hate him. Instead, they believed that Zheng Jingming was the culprit behind the development of the matter.

Since the four game companies have agreed to publicly apologize in public on Bibo's official Weibo, and the apology content also backstabs Zheng Jingming and Penguin Game Platform, they will naturally not hide it.

On the contrary, the four game companies were afraid that the words in the apology were not sharp enough and that they would not perform well enough in front of Cai Gou.

On the same day, these four game companies issued apology statements on their official Weibo accounts.

The words are sincere and the feelings are sincere. I am grateful to Taiping Dao and Cai Gou. It can be said that those who hear it are sad and those who see it shed tears. Those who don’t know it really think that they are the victims.

Immediately afterwards, these four game companies changed the subject and directed all their fingers at Penguin Game Platform and Zheng Jingming.

In the apology statement, they stated that if Zheng Jingming had not secretly instigated the incident at the beginning, they would not have become enemies with Cai Gou, and so many subsequent incidents would not have happened.

Now they have woken up and want to expose Zheng Jingming's ugly behavior without letting his relatives and enemies feel happy.

Taipingdao official Weibo forwarded the apology statements from the four game companies Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi in order, and posted @Penguin Game Platform.

But apart from @, he didn’t say a word, but anyone with a discerning eye would understand what’s going on here.

"Penguin Game Platform: It's broken. Why are you coming at me?"

"Hahaha, it's reversed? This reversal is so wonderful!"

"No? Why did you apologize? I'm still waiting for Taipingdao to continue releasing new games!"

"The ones upstairs are almost ready. Haven't you seen that the four game companies, Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, have almost become clowns in the industry in the past half a year? If they continue to fight against Taipingdao, aren't they? Looking for death?"

"Yes, and during this period of time, Taiping Road, Stardew Valley, and Ark Survival Evolved were released, and they also came with so many large-scale expansion DLCs of excellent quality. To be honest, I have been playing it for a year. More than enough.”

"Don't wait for any new games. It's already the beginning of June, and the Journey Cup competition will be here in a few months. Instead of looking forward to the continuation of this arena, it's better to wait a few months to watch the Journey Cup competition!"

"Yes, if we continue to fight, what if we delay Taiping Dao's participation in the Journey Cup?"

"Hahahaha, I should say it. I have been fighting in this arena for so long. If it weren't for the apology statements issued by the four game companies Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, I would have forgotten that it all started because of the Penguin Game Platform. Woolen cloth!"

Penguin gaming platform, headquarters building.

Zheng Jingming looked at these high praise comments, his nose turned red with anger.

no?

What's the meaning?

Pokémon GO and the mythical beast Pallu caused a plagiarism scandal. Isn’t it a long time ago?

How long has it been since I came out to say goodbye to Cai Gou in person? How could it still be my business?

Zheng Jingming looked at the apology statements from the four game companies, Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, and placed almost all the blame on himself.

Some dirty water that cannot be touched with a stick is thrown on Penguin Game's face. It is really unbearable for uncle and unbearable for aunt.

Zheng Jingming looked ferocious and gritted his teeth and said, "Cai Gou, you are a ruthless person!"

Now that the Penguin Game Platform has become the target of public criticism, if Fangji goes head-on with the four game companies of Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, wouldn't that push the Penguin Game Platform to the forefront again?

But if we don't end up confronting the four game companies of Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, in the face of this apology statement, Penguin Game Platform will be like yellow mud falling off its crotch, it is either shit or shit.

After thinking about it, he still couldn't swallow the feeling in his heart: "I can't deal with Taiping Road, but I can't deal with you bastards?"

Zheng Jingming sneered and asked his employees to review the games of the four game companies: Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi. If there were any flaws, they would be punished according to the rules of the Penguin Game Platform. The game will be fined and removed from the shelves.

In less than three days, more than ten games sold by four game companies, namely Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, were all removed from the Penguin Game platform and heavily fined.

The foursome, who originally had some illusions about the Penguin Game Platform and Zheng Jingming, saw that Zheng Jingming had cut off their own escape route, and a large amount of visible financial losses were in front of them.

This also completely aroused the anger of these four game companies. They gave up the idea of ​​being mere wallflowers. Instead, they firmly stood in Cai Gou's camp and chose to work hard with Penguin Game Platform.

The two sides were at each other's throats, which was very lively.

Of course, during this period, Cai Gou was not idle. There are no permanent enemies in the world, only permanent interests. He knows well that the enemy of his enemy is his friend, even if this friend was still an enemy a few days ago.

At present, the four game companies, Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, are very good pawns for Taipingdao.

In the coffee shop, Lanny was holding a cup of coffee, looking at Cai Gou who was talking eloquently across from him, and nodding in agreement from time to time.

"What do you mean, you want me to contact the four game companies: Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi now, and accept their games on the steam platform?"

"It's no loss for you, is it?" Cai Gou shrugged and said in a relaxed tone: "On the contrary, by doing this, you can get a batch of high-quality games effortlessly to fill the game library of the Steam platform."

"Oh, this may be a good idea." Lanny put down the teacup and smiled:

"I promised you that I would contact them in the next few days, but this is not because I am interested in the games of Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, but because I can gain your gratitude by doing so."

The two smiled at each other and chatted for a while. Lanny took the initiative to speak and said, "Oh, Cai Gou, do you know? This time I took the initiative to attend the meeting, in addition to not seeing you for a long time, there is another reason."

Cai Gou put away his smile and said in a serious and earnest tone: "I'm all ears."

"Don't be so nervous, it's not a big deal." Lanny took the initiative to ease the atmosphere and explained:

"The year I took office as the head of the Steam platform in China happened to be the first year of Taipingdao's vigorous development. Our win-win cooperation objectively provided a certain acceleration for Taipingdao's development, but subjectively it helped me more."

"In recent years, the performance of the Steam platform in China has grown by leaps and bounds, and my voice in the company has been greatly improved, but my term of office will end in October this year. The company leaders have talked to me in advance and want me to return to the headquarters."

Cai Gou rarely revealed a trace of loss when he heard this.

Lanni dared to cooperate with Taipingdao against all odds as soon as he took office, and his support for Taipingdao in recent years has been unprecedented. In addition to official business, the two have also become rare good friends in private over the years.

Seeing that his good friend and helper will leave in the near future, even Cai Gou can't help feeling lost and melancholy.

"Oh, Cai Gou, you don't have to do that."

Lanni felt a warm current in his heart when he saw this, and he was more determined to make the decision in his heart. He explained:

"Although the leader talked to me, I don't want to leave. I think this is my paradise, so I am still applying to the company's leaders to be re-elected as the head of the Steam platform in China."

"What do you need me to do?" Cai Gou asked proactively.

Lanni nodded and said, "We may have to let those high-ranking leaders understand that the reason why the performance of the country has soared in recent years is that Taipingdao has played a decisive role in it."

"And the reason why Taipingdao cooperates closely with the Steam platform in China is not because of the Steam platform itself, but because of me."

Cai Gou thought and nodded slowly: "Leave it to me."

After Lanni left, Cai Gou still stayed in his position, looking at the coffee on the table, and fell into thought.

Lanni wanted to achieve the goal of re-election, and the solution he gave seemed to have two conditions, but in fact it was one condition.

As long as Taipingdao won the first place in the Journey Cup, relying on the influence of the Journey Cup, it can influence the development trend of the game industry in the next few years or even ten years.

At the same time, the status and influence of Taipingdao will be greatly improved, becoming the well-deserved first in the hearts of a generation of gamers.

By then, the high-ranking leaders of the Steam platform headquarters will naturally understand which game company plays a decisive role in the national region. When the leaders understand the weight of Taipingdao, Cai Gou will publicly express his friendship with Lanni.

He said that his game was put on the Steam platform not for the sake of the Steam platform, but for the sake of Lanni, the head of the national region. Those thoughtful leaders naturally understood how to deal with Lanni's re-election.

"In the end, all this is still related to the Journey Cup."

Cai Gou smiled and shook his head, then took out his mobile phone and called Zheng Min.

Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, the four game companies, spent more than half a year fighting with Taipingdao and lost miserably. The company's funds were already stretched.

In the subsequent apology statement, the four companies collectively backstabbed Zheng Jingming, while Penguin Game Platform adhered to the principle of not returning the favor, found fault with the four game companies, fined them and removed their games.

This move of cutting off the source of funds has made the capital chain of the four game companies, Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi, even worse at this moment, and they are on the verge of despair.

They regretted why they had to be the first to fight against Taipingdao, and they hated the inhumane operation of Penguin Game Platform even more.

"What do you mean by surrendering and losing half?" Liu Mufeng said indignantly:

"Yes, on the surface, Cai Gou left us a way out, but is Zheng Jingming easy to mess with? Without surrendering, Penguin Game Platform has made us lose the other half. Now we have lost everything."

Jiang Zhihao echoed with resentment: "Zheng Jingming is really a piece of shit. In this day and age, except for Taipingdao, whose games don't have some problems? Must you find fault with eggs? Take it off the shelves and fine it? I really fuck him up."

Qian Rui smoked a lady's cigarette sullenly, without interrupting, but just looked up at Zheng Min. At this moment, Zheng Min was racking his brains to think of a way to break the deadlock, but now, in this situation, what way out is there?

Just then, Zheng Min saw Cai Gou calling, like a drowning man grabbing the last straw, he quickly answered the phone.

"Hey, Mr. Cai, you must...oh, oh, you say."

"What? Don't worry, I will, I will, oh, thank you, Mr. Cai for your matchmaking."

"Understood, I will contact Mr. Lanny right away, um, don't worry, we will handle the rest ourselves."

After hanging up the phone, Zheng Min was immersed in the joy of surviving a desperate situation. When he looked up, he found Qian Rui, Jiang Zhihao, and Liu Mufeng standing in front of him, asking urgent questions.

"What's going on? What did Mr. Cai say on this phone call?"

"Is there any way to survive?"

"Old Zheng, you are talking!"

"Wait until I catch my breath."

Zheng Min pushed away the three heads that were approaching him, stood up, took a few deep breaths, and said:

"Mr. Cai did not care about our life or death. He personally contacted Lanni, the country manager of the Steam platform, and made a bridge to have our game re-listed on the Steam platform."

"After the Steam platform evaluates these games, it will also conduct a small online game festival to help us promote sales."

Qian Rui: "!!!"

Jiang Zhihao: "!!!"

Liu Mufeng: "!!!"

Alive?

A dead end?

Although the games released by the four game companies Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi on the Penguin Game platform are not exclusive contract models.

But that's just the situation on the surface. Privately, Penguin Game Platform has unwritten rules. Only games that are unique to Penguin Game Platform will receive greater recommendations and support. Therefore, these games of theirs are exclusive and not exclusive. Exclusive name.

What's more, if four game companies want to change platforms, other domestic game platforms will not get into trouble for the sake of Penguin Game Platform.

Although the Steam platform does not exclude non-exclusive games, the games removed from the four game companies are all old games that have been online for one to several years. It is very difficult to put them on the Steam platform again.

But through Cai Gou's personal coordination, the four game companies Qingshan, Baihua, Wutong, and Fengqi were not only able to re-launch on the steam platform, but also have their own small online game festival.

This kind of treatment is simply amazing. Mr. Cai’s cards are too big, right?

"I'm convinced..."

Liu Mufeng was filled with emotion: "We are all being used as pawns, but at least when trouble comes, Taiping Dao is the real way. Unlike Zheng Jingming, who will just be a coward."

Qian Rui nodded silently: "Yes..."

Jiang Zhihao just let out a long breath.

Zheng Min clapped his hands and said, "You don't have to worry about the capital chain now. When you release the game later, you don't have to worry about Taipingdao ending up in the ring. All worries are solved."

"Let's focus on fighting the Penguin Game Platform. Damn it, we will remove it from the shelves and impose fines. Do you really think that the Penguin Game Platform dominates the domestic gaming industry?"

Zheng Min's initiative received full support from the three people present.

Helping you in times of need.

The icing on the cake is without you.

To add insult to injury, you showed up?

If you are not a human being, who will you do if I don’t do you?
