Game designer: I make games, not charity

The popularity of this finals suddenly dropped so much.

With the goose factory spending so much before, the heat of the water army is naturally inseparable.

As early as when the game Legend of Warriors was not officially launched, Goose Factory has been hyped up.

Using the power of his connections, he dredged various channels.

The momentum is so huge that even pig farms and some other game companies have to avoid the edge.

But these propaganda tactics are in the end nothing more than a vain appearance.

With a light touch, it will naturally disperse.

And the reason for this is naturally not the main reason.

The main reason is undoubtedly that the game Legend of Warriors has a fundamental problem.

That is, the later it goes, the less interesting it is to play.

The game is long and hardcore.

The operation of the masters makes those inexperienced players incomprehensible at all.

Not to mention the ornamentation, I don't even know how much higher the threshold for watching the game is than the dungeons and warriors.

It's also 3D, so it's not inherently suitable for esports competitions.

All kinds of factors add up, the reason why the legend of the warrior can have such a high degree of popularity now.

The reason why this competition can achieve such results now is already due to the incomparably amazing capital power of the goose factory!

If you casually change to a company to run the legend of the warriors.

It may still be a hot computer online game.

But it will certainly not have the momentum and heat it is now.

However, at the moment, the legend of the warriors and the results achieved in the game are clearly not what the goose factory wants.

Mr. Ma is plotting, but to make this game a global competition!

But now even the domestic finals have suddenly encountered Waterloo.

By the halfway point of the game, the number of viewers had even dropped to 50 million.

Even the number of spectators in the other 12 countries has gradually dropped.

All at once the whole goose factory panicked.

They don't even know if they should continue to hold future international competitions in this situation!

......

"No more competitions? Do you know what you're talking about!

In the conference room, Mr. Ma banged on the table angrily, and the sound was so loud that all the executives couldn't help but shrink their necks.

The domestic competition, which lasted for three full days, has ended.

The winner of the championship on the side of the Great Xia Kingdom was naturally the one that the goose factory had promised to give me a gun before.

The other 12 countries also decided the three champions and runners.

Always ready for the final international final.

But at this time, a huge problem was facing them.

Is this international final really going to continue?

You must know that at the end of the domestic finals, the Daxia Kingdom, which had the largest number of spectators, only had more than 23 million people left.

In other smaller countries, the player base was originally small, and in the end, some countries even had only a few thousand people watching.

If you add up people from 13 countries, you don't make up 50 million people.

The offline audience is also getting smaller and smaller.

On the first day, the offline arena was basically full.

But on the second and third days, the offline audience is also getting smaller and smaller.

In the end, even most of the audience seats were not satisfied.

Countless scalpers are complaining on Weibo.

This time they spent a lot of money to grab tickets for the game.

I was going to make a lot of money.

In the end, none of these tickets were sold.

All smashed into their hands.

The trousers that made the scalpers lose money are gone.

They really couldn't understand how they could have seen the legend of warriors that was about to fire all over the world.

All of a sudden, it's such a rubbish!

All in all, the attention and popularity of the competition today are still not low.

The discussion on the Internet is also very lively.

The champions and runners-up of each country that were previously decided have long been on Weibo hot search at this time.

Many players are waiting for this international final.

In any case, this is a race to win glory for the country, and players will naturally pay a little attention.

But inside the goose factory, there was suddenly some lack of confidence.

They know all too well how much it costs to host an international tournament of this magnitude.

If this game does not achieve the expected benefits.

Then this loss is too big!

It is precisely because of this that these executives will come to Ma Zong for this meeting.

"If we continue to do it, it will only continue to increase losses, but if we stop the loss in time now, we will still be able to save some things."

"Yes, Mr. Ma, the price we have invested in this game in the recent period of time for Legend of Warriors is too great, and the shareholders are already very unwilling!"

Executives are persuading.

During this time, everyone in the company was under a lot of pressure, and everyone was working overtime.

But the end result was not so good.

This also discouraged executives a little.

But Mr. Ma obviously didn't think so.

He rested his hand on his desk in the conference room, his gaze sweeping over the executives in the company.

"The international finals must continue to be held, and they must be held according to the original specifications!" Mr. Ma said.

He knew very well that if this game was not held, the reputation of the goose factory would plummet!

If the tournament is not successful enough, they will lose more money at best.

But if they directly change their fortune halfway, then after this credibility is completely lost, it is basically impossible for them to hold such a competition in the future.

"We have a long-term vision, and we have lost a lot of money now, and we are not short of this money."

Mr. Ma looked at the executives in the company, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and patiently explained.

"Now platinum is iron-hearted, to go the free-to-play road, if we don't follow them, then the market will definitely be occupied by them."

But the profit from free-to-play games is still very limited in my opinion.

The biggest ability of free games is to attract the most users, but because games are free, only a small number of these users will generate enough revenue for us.

So there are only two ways for free-to-play games to make enough money.

One is to do things on the game, let the game be for that part of the players who will generate revenue for us, and service, in short, the game is made for them.

Other free-to-play players are attracted and become part of the content of these heavy Krypton players.

But this is not an absolutely healthy method, and it is also a very bad word-of-mouth method.

So, we have to explore another path on this basis.

I think Mr. Chen, who is platinum, thinks the same as me, and the reason why he wants to hold a game competition is precisely because of this.

Since you can't make money from players, find a way to use these players to earn money elsewhere.

When this road is not yet certain, we better not give up.

Because the first way... You can only go when there is no way. Mr

. Ma's words, everyone in the company was speechless.

Some of them understood, some did not.

But everyone could hear Ma's firmness from these words.

I also know that this competition, which looks like it will not end well, will continue to be held.

And with the attitude of Mr. Ma in the company, Mr. Ma is so determined to decide good things.

There is also nothing they can change.

At the end of the meeting, the executives left one by one.

Leaving Mr. Ma alone in the conference room, he sighed deeply.

If Chen Feng was in this conference room just now, he heard what President Ma said.

He will definitely admire the middle-aged man in front of him.

Because what Mr. Ma said just now is indeed free games, the two most profitable roads.

To be able to realize so many things in such a short time.

It is also enough to prove that Mr. Ma's intelligence is indeed not comparable to ordinary people.

If it weren't for Chen Feng, General Emma's ability and intelligence would definitely be able to make a difference in this world.

But unfortunately, he faced Chen Feng.

Chen Feng came to this parallel world with the experience that had been completely complete on the earth in his previous life, and would not take any detours.

And there is also a system on him that allows him to do almost no research and development work.

It is completely possible to fight big with small and tense....

In a word.

When Mr. Ma faced Chen Feng, the only advantage was his strong network strength and basic capital strength.

If at the beginning, President Ma paid enough attention to Chen Feng.

Maybe the two can fight well.

But now it's too late.

When Chen Feng took out "Dungeons and Warriors", and accumulated to this point.

When you can exchange "League of Legends" at any time.

The defeat of Ma Zong and the Goose Factory is almost certain....
