Game Design: Is it possible? CaiGou

The Journey Cup competition has been held for so many times, and the rules of the competition have never been changed due to player preferences.

Five million players petitioned, and most of them really wanted to experience Resident Evil Village for the first time, which made a group of anchors say that I don’t want to play anymore, and my somatosensory cabin has moved.

But a small number of players are just watching the excitement and following the trend.

No matter which part of them they are, they actually have no illusions about the outcome of the petition.

But what the players didn't expect was that in just one afternoon and less than ten hours, the organizers actually accepted their petition and adjusted the competition rules for the first time in the history of the Journey Cup.

If Cai Gou is asked to hold the Fenghuo No. 3 press conference at the opening ceremony of the Journey Cup, it can also be described as not affecting the game.

So this time, on the day of the opening ceremony, all entries will be put on the official platform, which is a change that will have a far-reaching impact on the competition.

If the official competition rules are changed this time and the results are outstanding, then the entries will be put on the game platform on the day of the opening ceremony, which will become a common practice in future Journey Cup competitions.

But players don't care about this.

When they saw the scarf posted on the official WeChat account of Journey Cup, the first reaction in their minds was - holy crap! Resident Evil Village, here I come!

Just a quarter of an hour after the official Weibo announcement of Journey Cup, the news swept the entire gaming circle like a storm and became the focus of everyone’s attention that night.

In the comment section of the official Weibo account of Journey Cup, many players came to restore the game and express their gratitude for this.

"Brother, I will give you a cup of journey cup!"

"Hahahaha, thanks to you, I finally don't have to wait three days to play Resident Evil Village..."

"To be honest, I watched so many anchors live broadcast Resident Evil Village today that I almost wanted to buy a ticket to go to the Liangshan offline game exhibition hall. I really can't wait for three days."

"Brother, please save it. Fortunately, the official version of the Journey Cup has changed the rules of the game. Let me tell you the truth, I was among the first batch of players at the Liangshan offline game exhibition hall today. But when I arrived at the Taipingdao game exhibition hall, there were people queuing up. No matter how many there are, there is no chance to experience it. At most, you can only watch the live broadcast in the exhibition hall.”

"Hey, that's not right... Let me ask a question, if you play Resident Evil Village using other virtual game cabins, will you have a physical experience?"

"Upstairs, what are you thinking about? The game itself does not have a somatosensory experience. What allows you to have a somatosensory experience is the Fenghuo 3 full-sensory game cabin."

"Ah? What should I do if I don't have the Fenghuo 3 full-body game cabin? I don't want to play Resident Evil Village without a full sense."

"Don't worry about this. I just took a look and found that the Fenghuo 3 virtual game cabin is for sale in the game mall of the Taipingdao Community APP."

"But if I buy it tonight, it can only be delivered tomorrow. If I go...will I have to wait all night?"

When water friends are discussing the first official rule change of the Journey Cup, the series of chain reactions and subsequent repercussions caused by this rule change have just begun.

The other 107 participating manufacturers in this Journey Cup learned that the rules of the competition were changed, and it was actually easy to handle.

The official Journey Cup has already connected with major game platforms in advance. This change in the rules of the competition is nothing more than putting it on the shelves three days in advance.

Not only will the changes in the competition rules this time have no impact on them, but the sales of the game may also be a higher level than the entries in the Journey Cup in previous years. After all, there is an extra three days of sales period.

However, this change in the competition rules has a great impact on Taipingdao, Resident Evil Village, and the Beacon Fire III Holistic Game Cabin.

As we all know, the complete version of the game is the full version of the Beacon Fire 3 game cabin paired with Resident Evil Village, and both are indispensable.

But right now, 99% of players don’t have the FiberHome 3 full-sense game cabin at all.

If other virtual cabins are used, even the Jiegan-2 somatosensory cabin, they cannot perfectly reflect the charm of Resident Evil Village.

This is also the reason why a large number of players are struggling.

Liangshan, hotel, guest room balcony.

Cai Gou sat in the rocking chair, with an extremely serious look on his face, and called You Suowei, the president of the National Game Association:

"Hello, President You, I am Cai Gou from Taiping Road. The cooperation we discussed with the Game Association may have to be brought forward."

As early as the stage of full mass production of the Fenghuo 3 Holistic Game Cabin, Cai Gou understood that once the Journey Cup competition was officially held, Taipingdao would face the biggest problem.

That is, after using Resident Evil Village to make the Fenghuo 3 full-sense game cabin an instant hit, how can we sell it as quickly as possible?

The game mall that relies on the Taipingdao Community APP is unable to meet the timely supply problem for such a huge purchase volume.

So Cai Gousi thought about it and contacted Director Liu Shu of the Game Office of the Cultural and Entertainment Office a month ago.

Ask him to come forward and invite You Suowei, the president of the National Game Association, to have a meal and hold discussions.

Taipingdao wants to take advantage of the mature but huge sales network of the National Game Association and game associations at all levels to sell the Fenghuo 3 full-sense game cabin to external parties.

This time the banquet was attended by Liu Shu, so it was natural for the guests and hosts to have a great time.

But You Suowei still put forward a condition.

When the Fenghuo No. 3 Holistic Game Cabin virtual game platform is opened to the public, certain quotas for game associations at all levels must be taken care of to a certain extent.

Who is not given the quota?

Cai Gou naturally agreed to the matter of carrying people in a sedan chair.

Right now, the Journey Cup changing the rules of the game is the only variable at the moment.

Fortunately, the sales outlets of game associations across the country already have a batch of Fenghuo 3 full-sense game cabins in stock, which should be able to meet the needs of the first batch of players.

You Suowei already had a hunch when he saw the announcement on the official Weibo account of the Journey Cup. As expected, not long after, he received a call from Cai Gou, who asked:

"Xiao Cai, don't be anxious. You can do it in advance. We are prepared. When exactly will it be in advance? Please confirm it here and I will notify the game associations at all levels across the country as soon as possible."

"I'm thinking the sooner the better, preferably tonight."

"Well...it's a little rushed, but it shouldn't be a big problem."

"That's good. Thanks to the president for your strong support. After the competition is over, Ruoya and I will go see you."

"Hahaha, you should be busy with the competition first. The Journey Cup is more important. Just visit me and have this intention."

You Suowei also knew that the current situation was urgent, so he hung up the phone without saying a few words.

Immediately, Cai Gou logged into the backend of the Taiping Dao official account and edited a scarf——

【important Notice--】

[In the game mall of the Taipingdao Community APP, orders for the Fenghuo 3 Holistic Game Cabin are overloaded, and the estimated delivery time has been queued up for a week. 】

[Taipingdao learned of this news, in order to thank all players for their strong support to Taipingdao, and to meet the needs of players for the Fenghuo 3 full-sense game cabin. 】

[Taipingdao hereby announces that starting from 9 o'clock tonight, players can purchase the spot goods of Fenghuo 3 Holistic Game Cabin at the sales outlets of provincial and municipal game associations across the country. 】

[If there is no subsequent inventory at the sales outlets, players can also make reservations at major sales outlets. In short, Taipingdao has only one purpose - to allow all players to play the full-featured version of Resident Evil Village as soon as possible. 】

After a while, game associations at all levels across the country forwarded the scarf to let more players know about it.

Seeing such a grand and grand gesture, the players' hearts finally dropped.

did not expect!

Never imagined!

General Tiangong has no plans left, has he even thought of this?

A private game manufacturer uses the sales outlets of game associations at all levels across the country to sell its FiberHome 3 full-sense game cabin.

Only General Tiangong has such a big deal about this matter, and only General Tiangong has such fantastic ideas about this matter.

"The sales outlets of the Game Association? Or at the provincial and municipal levels across the country? Hahahaha, old thief, I love you to death. I will go out and queue up to buy."

"Brothers, if you have quick hands and slow hands, just one word - rush!"

"Hahahahaha, my home is in a community next to the Game Association. I'm going downstairs right now. I'm bound to grab a Fenghuo 3 full-sense gaming cabin!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuah, damn it, I'm in my hometown now, and the sales outlet of the Game Association is more than 80 kilometers away from us. What should I do?"

"It's okay. You can buy the one upstairs in the game mall of Taipingdao Community APP."

"Damn it, the queue at the game mall is already until next Friday. I can't wait."

"Oh, there's nothing we can do about it. By the way, I forgot to mention that I'm at the sales outlet now and I've just finished paying."

Night has enveloped the earth, and regardless of whether it is windy or rainy at this moment across the country, gaming otakus who used to go out during the day were not uncommon.

Tonight, one by one, they ran out of their homes at a sprint speed of 100 meters, took various means of transportation, and rushed to the sales outlet closest to their home as quickly as possible.

Xia Chunqiu, a veteran gaming otaku and historian of Taiping Dao Steamed Dumplings, is one of them.

After getting off work, he got the news and took a taxi directly to the sales outlet five kilometers away. When he got out of the car, he was shocked.

Players outside this sales outlet have queued up to form a long queue of more than 100 people, and the number is still increasing.

He quickly lined up and asked the young man standing in front of him: "Brother, what's going on? Why are there so many people in line? Are they scalpers?"

"That's not..."

This young man in his twenties, who had just entered society for the first time, replied:

"I heard that the Fenghuo 3 Holistic Game Cabin is directly bound to the account on site, and scalpers cannot make profits through secondary sales. These players came over as soon as they saw the Taipingdao scarf."

Xia Chunqiu was surprised: "So many people in such a short time?"

The young man shrugged and said: "You also know that when the account of the Fenghuo 3 Holistic Game Cabin is bound on the spot, other people who want to buy it can only be present in person."

Xia Chunqiu thought the same thing.

He logged into the official website of the local gaming association and checked the inventory of this sales outlet. He found that there were more than 1,500 items left, and he was queued at more than 100 people.

"This wave is stable."

At the same time, the steam platform's national headquarters received news that Jones, the head of the evaluation team who came to evaluate Lanni's performance, immediately asked Lanny out.

The two came to a cafe near the Steam Platform headquarters.

Jones had only been in China for less than a week. He was originally leading a performance appraisal team to evaluate Lanny and then promote him.

Jones will succeed Lanni and become the next national head of the steam platform.

But who would have thought that while the assessment team was still on the plane, Lanny applied to the headquarters for re-election.

And it shows that the success of Steam platform in China in recent years is inseparable from Taipingdao Company.

If he resigns or is transferred, it is possible that Taipingdao and Cai Gou will not continue to cooperate with Steam platform in China.

This move of cutting off the source of funds hit their vital points and completely disrupted the plans of the headquarters and Jones.

At present, the performance evaluation team led by Jones is ready to follow Lanny's suggestion and further discuss with Cai Gou after the Journey Cup.

But now the Fenghuo No. 3 holistic game cabin is on sale, and the news that Taipingdao is about to establish the Jiegan No. 2 virtual game platform and Taipingdao will establish the Fenghuo No. 3 virtual game platform in the future has made the Steam platform headquarters unable to sit still.

"Lanni, the most urgent task for the Steam platform in China is whether it can cooperate deeply with Taipingdao on the holistic game platform."

A tall and well-proportioned young woman with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a black business suit, said urgently:

"This is not only an opportunity for the Steam platform in China, but also an opportunity for the future global game industry."

"I just contacted the headquarters and got the exact order. I will form a negotiation team and contact Taipingdao and Cai Gou as soon as possible for cooperation. You, as the deputy team leader, will participate together."

Lanni is an expert on China. He has read a lot of Sun Tzu's Art of War and Thirty-Six Stratagems in recent years. He has developed the ability to listen to what he hears. He frowned and said:

"Deputy team leader? Such a big thing? I am not fully responsible?"

"You can assist me."

Jones refused to give up an inch, especially when he learned about the release of the Fenghuo No. 3 holistic game cabin. He knew that the future global game industry would definitely be dominated by the Chinese region.

Jones took the opportunity to suggest to the headquarters that Lanny has been in the country for many years, and his relationships are complicated. His current position is unclear. Once the negotiation plan starts, who knows which party's interests he will put first?

These words directly hit the lungs of the senior leaders of the headquarters.

They thought so.

If it weren't for this, why did Lanny give up the promotion and insist on continuing to be re-elected, and also frankly confessed his relationship with Taipingdao and his open and covert struggle?

Therefore, the leaders of the headquarters are determined. Lanny's position as the head of the steam platform in the country has come to an end, and Jones will take over soon.

"Assist you?"

Lanny's face turned black, and he said bluntly: "Who do you think you are? Let me assist you?"

"You want me to sell my face and ask for cooperation with Taipingdao, and you will take it away and let me go back to China?"

"If that's the case, I can answer you now-don't even think about it!"
