Number One Game Designer

At the beginning of July, almost all the players have entered the prime time of summer vacation, and the anchors have almost entered the prime time of the year. As long as you broadcast, there will be no shortage of viewers. Most of the anchors have also fallen into the happiness of today’s broadcast. .

And the anchor Ah Feng didn’t worry so much this year. Remembering that he played one game in three days on average during the summer vacation last year, and almost 40 games in a month, he felt a little nauseous. When it comes to promoting cooperation agreements, Ah Feng is as steady as an old dog.

According to the requirements of the agreement, I will basically use this summer vacation to broadcast the latest DLC of Left 4 Dead: Battle Royale. Although this is the new DLC of Left 4 Dead in the store category, viewers are generally used to calling it the new mode.

In the last time and space, in terms of game promotion, the game that led the revolution was the battle royale game. This small-cost game produced by Blue Hole Company chose cheap but very effective live broadcast promotion, and then became an upstart in the game industry. , crazily attracting tens of millions of users, is considered a myth in the game world of the last time and space. starter

After Bluehole’s battle royale, domestic game developers will also tend to consider the live broadcast effect of a game. Bluehole has personally demonstrated a truth for colleagues in the game industry that games suitable for live broadcast can save more publicity costs. Although the game makers later discovered that even if a game is suitable for live broadcast, it may not be suitable for game broadcast. Of course, this is a later story.

In short, now that Fang Xi holds Battle Royale in his hand, he will definitely not miss the live broadcast's promotion of the game.

Fang Xi also finalized the preliminary film plan with Ernst in the United States. Hongyi will pay 50% of the money, and then Ernst will get 7% of the box office share. Overall, Hongyi has lost a lot , but Fang Xi is rushing to promote the game, and in fact, he invited others to come to China to shoot, so Fang Xi is also very optimistic about making a profit, so he just spent money to buy a super-large promotional film. , not bad money.

After Fang Xi came back from the United States, the major anchors found that their good days had come again.

Before July, people from Hongyi's operation department came to the door again with promotion contracts with different benefits. The main thing was to sign a two-month promotion plan for the battle royale mode during the summer vacation. From the anchors' point of view, the contract has many rules, such as Some of them can’t comprehend that they can’t talk profanely during the live broadcast, and can’t live broadcast fried fish. starter

This made many anchors feel heavy in their hearts, but looking at the treatment, they felt that their pockets would also be heavy in the future, so in the end, almost all the anchors who came to Hongyi signed contracts.

For big anchors, they are directly bound by contracts, and for small anchors, it is a regular live broadcast event. How many hours of live broadcasts are completed every week, and then bonuses are finally distributed according to their rankings. Douyu is also familiar with it.

So starting from July, players suddenly found that the topics around them all became Battle Royale.

"Yu Jiashu, can't you afford to go online?"

In the dormitory of Linjing University, Yu Jiashu's roommate asked before going out.

"Answer it for me. If it doesn't work, please take a leave of absence. If you can't be fooled, just say you don't know."

Yu Jiashu stared at the download on the screen in front of him and replied without looking back.

For Yu Jiashu, who is just a freshman, attending class is important, but the start of the game is equally important.

Going to university, leaving his hometown, finally breaking away from the control of his parents, and having his own (you) calculating (xi) computer for the first time, games have become the top priority in Yu Jiashu's life.

Mr. Fang’s Weibo must be followed, Hongyi’s official blog also goes to read news every day, and even spontaneously learned to modify the location of the Honghu platform, and made some North American gamer friends. For him, this wonderful platform is more interesting than class up. Of course, this is based on the fact that he has already previewed this year's courses.

Since Hongyi and Douyu have set up a live broadcast promotion, the anchors must be given preferential treatment. The anchors can start the live broadcast on the 29th, which is two days earlier than the player unlocking. On the one hand, it is to win the popularity in advance; Play a teaching role, at least let the players know what to do at the beginning, and easily gather the target group of users.

It was during this process that Yu Jiashu fell in love with this game. According to the trial videos of the anchors, the game also has a multiplayer team mode in web games, but Yu Jiashu decided to form a team and bring friends after he became a master. .

At ten o'clock in the morning, the battle royale server was officially launched. Since it was just a DLC and a new game mode, Fang Xi didn't open it globally simultaneously. It opened at ten o'clock in the morning in each time zone, and Huaxia District was naturally the first. Then Southeast Asia, India, Russia, Europe, etc. were opened in turn, but the back door was still left. If you can't wait, you can use some unspeakable tricks to change the location of your Honghu platform to China, and you can open it simultaneously.

For the first time in July, the Honghu platform suddenly increased a lot of other players who speak various languages, and Fang Xi couldn't laugh or cry. This kind of time for players from other regions to adapt to China, I have to say, is a bit cool.

At ten o'clock, the game officially opened.

Yu Jiashu proficiently created the character, and then directly found the solo mode, ranked in seconds, and entered the game. After the 90-second preparation time was over, Yu Jiashu also jumped out of the plane.

As an old driver who has played Left 4 Dead for more than 300 hours, he felt the familiarity of the city of Left 4 Dead as soon as he jumped out of the plane. Yu Jiashu smiled slightly. It seems that this game is very suitable for him. Relatively speaking, The kind of marksmanship played in the road to survival is not in vain here, I should be very strong!

Fifteen minutes later, Yu Jiashu looked at himself a little confused by the role of the dead corpses. Based on his experience of watching the live broadcast for two days, he jumped directly to the Midtown area with relatively more supplies, and got a series of successful kills Killed out, the ammunition is full, I feel that my first one is probably stable, but in the final round, I was directly pushed out of the circle by the opponent's trap, and the zombies approaching the final stage are also particularly crazy, Yu Jiashu The character donated without any resistance, and Yu Jiashu finally realized that in this game, good skills are not the first priority, but adaptability is the most important thing.

At the same time, Fang Xi also sneaked into the game. The reason why he sneaked in was because Fang Xi was a little self-aware. What kind of strokes, marksmanship, and express delivery are his specialties in this game. When he played this game before, he was still very excited at the beginning After various arrangements with friends, Fang Xi's role as a mobile third-level bag later, is the joy of the game.

Sure enough, I entered the game at ten o'clock, and then the word youdie was displayed on the screen at 10:05.

Fang Xi shook his head, turned off the computer, and was about to go to the R\u0026D department to have a look. As soon as he went out, he ran into Xiaolan who was still pouring water, and Xiaolan also took the initiative to say hello:

"Mr. Fang, I thought you were playing chicken."

Fang Xi nodded seriously: "You have already won after playing for a while." After saying that, he walked away with his hands behind his back.

Only the confused Xiaolan was left:

"Eating chicken in less than ten minutes now? Our boss's surname is Lu, right?"
