National Game Producer

Friday, noon.

He Jiu finished his lunch early and then found a bench to sit down at random near the school's fountain square.

Take out your phone and log on to Weibo.

In accordance with the agreement with Wang Jingyao, he posted a traffic diversion update again.

[Firebringer: After reading the comment section of last night’s post, it seems that most people are not opposed to us making a two-player cooperative puzzle game with a plot? Doesn’t it matter even if it is an online game? Then we are really

Did you do it?

[Ahem, by the way, let me remind you that at 12 noon today, we will launch additional expansion content for one of the old games. Please remember to support it~]

In the second half of the sentence, he directly copied what happened last night, and then deleted a few words at will.

After all, what he really wanted to express was only the first half of the sentence, and the second half was just for show.

After posting the update, he glanced at the time in the upper left corner.

12:15.

Well...the two DLCs of "The Binding of Isaac" have been automatically available for 15 minutes.

He posted this update only 15 minutes too early.

‘And then there’s the “Forest” side…’

He Jiu muttered in a low voice and turned to Neon's official game platform.

Go directly to the developer page.

He wrote a paragraph in the update announcement and published it.

After doing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, got up and returned to the classroom.

Since late last night, things on the Internet about "The Forest" and "Soral" have become increasingly complicated.

A small number of players who support and love "The Forest" have appeared in some relevant comment areas on Weibo, and have tit-for-tat arguments with netizens, media, and even celebrities who have criticized "The Forest".

Although this situation has not gotten worse, it has always existed.

…Those players who support "The Forest" are a bit abnormally persistent.

It was as if, somewhere unknown, something big was about to happen.

Seeing this, He Ji naturally would not sit still and wait for death.

Therefore, he would temporarily write an update announcement and publish it.

——He must give some positive feedback to those players who are still sticking to "The Forest".

At the same time, he had to sigh with emotion.

Today's players are really more ambitious than the ordinary players he imagined.

With their existence, why worry about future online games not being promoted!

As for now...

He doesn't think there is any possibility of a comeback in "The Forest" either.

Next, let's let "Soral" suffer some injustice for the time being.

…

the other side.

Dong Lin also saw the latest updates released by "Fire Bearer" on Weibo.

But he had no intention of trying out the new content of "Isaac" at this time.

The reason why he came to see the other party's new developments was just to confirm the other party's attitude one last time.

Seeing that the other party really had no intention of targeting "Solar" and "The Forest", he was completely relieved.

"It's time to start." He sent a message to the group leader of the former navy exchange group.

"Wait a minute." the group leader replied.

"What's wrong? Your anchor friend regretted it again?"

"Go to the store page of "Forest" first. "Soral" has just released a new announcement."

New announcement?

Is there any new content in the game? Or is "Solar" forced to do something helpless and preparing to announce some bad news...

With some doubts and worries, Dong Lin logged on to the official Neon game platform and clicked on the store page of "The Forest".

The next second, he saw the title of the new announcement.

[A letter to players from the national area]

The title is pure Chinese without any other characters.

So, "Solar" directly recognized his identity as a Chinese?

Dong Lin clicked on this announcement with complicated emotions.

[Well... we are all our own people, so I won’t say more about the hypocrisy.

[First of all, I would like to thank you all for your support for these games of our team. Without you, our games would not have been welcomed by so many people, sold so many copies, and even appeared on the New York Times many times during this period.

The weekly bestseller list of Hong official game platform.

[As for why our games were not released in China but on foreign platforms, you don’t need to think too much. We are simply trying to avoid premature community death.]

When Dong Lin saw this, he couldn't help but grin.

He thinks this sentence is quite credible.

After all, the first game of "Solar" is not a serious game that can be promoted everywhere.

It is also very reasonable for the other party to be afraid of being discovered by others about his true identity in reality.

He then looked down.

[Finally, let’s talk about what happened in the past two days.

[Actually, our team has already had a certain psychological preparation for this kind of thing, so it’s not hard to say.

[However, the fact that things have developed to this point is indeed far beyond our expectations.

[It’s funny to say that the original intention of our team to make games was never to convey ideas, create value, or promote the development of the game industry in a more noble direction...

【We just want to bring joy to everyone~】

'That's enough...'

Dong Lin muttered in a low voice, then sighed softly, and then looked down.

[We can understand that those plot games with depth and ideological value will be sought after by the vast majority of people;

[But we can’t understand why a purely casual and entertainment game is despised by others?

【In addition to good games, there are all bad games in this world, right?

[In the gaming industry, there are only black and white theories, right?

[So, those ordinary games that game producers have worked so hard to make will become worthless garbage after they are not evaluated as good games, right?

[Oh, some people say that reality is not like this?

[Then why is "The Forest" a garbage game, instead of a good or bad game?

[Because its plot is weak, because it is not suitable for minors to play, because it cannot improve mental strength much, and because it is popular? 】

[What about those popular love games on the market that have incorrect views and are mindless?

[Don’t some people think it’s ridiculous to have double standards?

[Finally, let me say two more words.

【We will continue to make such casual entertainment games in the future.

[Players who like this type of game are also welcome to come and enjoy the joy that the game brings to us~

[Some people really think that our games are not suitable for everyone, so why not rate the games?

[I’ve finished what I said, thank you~]

…

After Dong Lin read this announcement, his mood became more and more complicated.

"Soral" Isn't this too strong?

This is a head-to-head confrontation with domestic authorities!

But having said that, what the other person said does make sense.

"The Forest" may indeed not be suitable for minors to play, but no matter what, it is not suitable for adults to play, let alone a garbage game.

Even if it does not meet the game standards of the mainstream game market, there is no need for the authorities to degrade it to what it is now!

This is obviously an extreme behavior!

Is there anyone who doesn’t want the game market to change again?

Dong Lin thought for a long time and then sent a message to the group leader of the former navy exchange group.

Dong Lin: After reading it, what are your plans?

Group leader: I should be the one to ask you this. What are your plans now?

Dong Lin: I plan to post the announcement on Weibo.

Group owner:[OK]

Group owner: I asked my friend to help forward it.

Dong Lin: Thank you, sorry for bothering you.

Group leader: No need.

Group leader: Everyone is a gamer.

…

Time soon came to evening.

After school, He Cu and Yu Suai left the classroom together.

Just a few steps out of the teaching building, He Xu received a call from Wang Jingyao.

"Hello, Uncle Wang?"

"Next, I may not be able to help you anymore."

"Ah?" He Xu looked confused, "Uncle Wang, were you arrested for abusing your power?"

"I did not abuse my power..."

Wang Jingyao explained with a bit of laughter, "What I mean is, whether I help you promote the game or not in the next few days, I won't be of much help to you."

"How do you say that?" He Jiu asked.

"You were in class in the afternoon. You probably don't know what happened online during this period."

Wang Jingyao considered his words and said with some helplessness, "To sum up, the topic about "The Forest" and "Soral" has now reached the top of Weibo's hot topic list."

"The first one?!"

"And it lasted for a full two hours."

"Is it still number one now?"

"Still number one."

"..." He Xu looked at Yu Suai beside him with a slight confusion.

He was a little suspicious. This might be related to the announcement he issued at noon.

But he didn't think the announcement would have such a big impact.

That is the first in the entire network!

Some celebrities in the entertainment industry who are several times more famous than him may have never been ranked number one on Weibo in their entire lives!

And it stayed on for a full two hours without falling off...

Is this a bit too exaggerated?

Yu Suai vaguely heard the conversation between the two and quickly took out her phone to check it.

"So, even if 'Firebringer' releases a new game right now, it may not be able to shake the popularity of 'Solar' and 'The Forest' in the gaming circle, or even on the entire Internet." Wang Jingyao sighed.

"Are you saying that we have lost to Solar now?" He Xu scratched his head.

"Don't think too much..."

Wang Jingyao said calmly, "Today is a special situation... The popularity of this incident has nothing to do with the quality of the game itself. Even if you lose to him in popularity, it does not mean that your game has lost to his.

game."

"Oh, I understand..." He Xiu responded.

At this time, Yu Suai handed the phone to him.

He glanced at it and saw the announcement he posted on the Neon Game Platform immediately.

Sure enough, someone had reposted it...

"I did something wrong in this matter, and I will make it up to you later." Wang Jingyao expressed his apology.

"You don't seem to have done anything wrong, right?" He Xu asked doubtfully.

"No, I did make a mistake this time."

Wang Jingyao said frankly, "If I hadn't issued a document to interfere, things would not have developed like this."

He paused for a moment and then added, "Next, I should think carefully about the issue of online games."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Wang." He urged.

After the two communicated, they hung up the phone.

Yu Suai was still looking at her phone at this time.

"What's going on online right now?" He Xi put his head over.

"Your "Forest" fans are going crazy!"

Yu Suai pulled the news to show him, "They are obviously acting in an organized and disciplined manner this time.

"After a few hours, apart from forwarding your announcement, they didn't say anything offensive. They just kept sharing their experience of playing "The Forest" and their gaming experience...

"In the past hour, some people have even started posting live videos and guide videos of "The Forest."

"So outrageous?"

He Xu was a little confused, "But if that's the case, the topic shouldn't be so popular, right?"

"Have you forgotten those game media, game studios, and seniors in the game industry yesterday?"

Yu Suai turned back to the previous hot news, "They probably didn't want to see any new changes in the gaming industry before, so they united to denounce "The Forest".

"At this time today, the heat of their denunciatory speeches has not yet passed, and now they suddenly come into contact with your announcement, of course a violent chemical reaction occurred."

She pursed her lips and smiled, "I said that your "Forest" fans are very polite when posting updates, but I didn't say that they are also very polite when commenting in the comment area!"

He Xu took the phone from her hand and checked it by himself.

Among the many hot news, in addition to yesterday's game media, game studios, and seniors in the game circle, he also saw many very familiar game anchors, including "Wen Nuo'er" who was familiar with him,

"Don't like pears".

And these game anchors all support the existence of "The Forest".

He Xu looked a little doubtful about life?

Have "Solar" and "The Forest" already gained such great popularity in China?

Confused, he randomly clicked on an update posted by a well-known gaming media.

Unsurprisingly, the comment section of this dynamic has been team-building by fans of "The Forest".

Such as "We just want to play some fun games, what's wrong with us!", "Wouldn't your conscience hurt if you bully an independent game producer like this?", "We are all adults, we don't need you to teach us.

Comments like "Let's pick games!" are really a bit murderous.

"Although the words are a bit sharp, overall it's quite civilized." He Xu handed the phone back to Yu Suai.

"So congratulations, you have gained a group of high-quality fans." Yu Suai pursed her lips and chuckled, refreshing the topic page.

At this time, a new hot news suddenly appeared on the page.
