The more the man thought about it, the more ashamed he felt. The words he had used to advise Lu Yu earlier were like boomerangs, stabbing him mercilessly and making him feel uncomfortable all over. In the end, he was so ashamed that he covered his face and left the stage early.

[Seeing the shocked expression of the web game company boss, I feel happy, leisurely points +10]

After Lu Yu took the stage, the audience exclaimed in amazement.

"Good heavens, is President Lu of Peach Garden Village so young?!"

"President Cai graduated with a master's degree. This President Lu looks like a fresh undergraduate, even younger than President Cai."

"This is truly a young talent!"

"How does his genius brain work? How can he make every game a hit?!"

"Moreover, have you heard about what happened at the exhibition yesterday? Peach Garden Village was suspected of being stabbed in the back by a competitor, but they fought back!"

At this time, Manager Shi, sitting in the audience, had a cold expression after hearing the discussions around him, while Zou Zhongtian's face had turned liver-colored.

Yesterday, Youyi's warning did not achieve the desired effect, but instead caused many employees to suffer mental attacks, truly revealing a wave of vulnerability.

Manager Shi never expected that Peach Garden Village would have so many geniuses.

Although he was worried that Wang Su would use this incident to make an issue and complain about him in front of Liu Lan,

He was still not flustered.

Boss Simulator and Mouth Cannon Life should be launched in the same period half a month later,

Since Peach Garden Village is determined to be stubborn, then he will let them understand what Youyi relied on to achieve its current scale.

As long as he solves this potential competitor before the next work report to Shenzhen and allows Boss Simulator to successfully occupy the market, then his promotion is still a certainty.

……

On the stage, the host smiled and started the interview:

"President Lu, we all know that you have successfully created three games in a row,

Especially the recently released 'Carefree Mouth Cannon Life' has set off a wave of online discussion. Do you have any insights to share with everyone about making hit games in a row?"

Lu Yu thought for a while and said with particular humility and sincerity:

"To be honest, I also want to know what the secret to making my games a hit is, but I really don't know."

"Ah, this…"

The host showed an awkward but polite smile and reminded:

"For example, you can talk specifically about what major things you have done in game development."

Lu Yu thought for a moment and hesitated:

"Actually, I just take the team to eat and drink, give out more benefits, enjoy the beauty of life, and then we succeed."

The guests in the audience rolled their eyes.

Good heavens, here it comes again! This is simply the highest level of Versailles!

President Lu made making hit games sound too easy.

This is like telling someone: This is addition, this is multiplication, okay, now please solve Goldbach's conjecture for me.

President Lu is so young, but he speaks like an old fox.

Taking the team to eat and drink, can the construction period be met, and will the employees still be in the mood to focus on serious matters?

Besides, President Lu is giving away so much money to those workers for nothing. Isn't this a sin? Do you believe what you say yourself?

Therefore, they all felt that President Lu was making fun of them and releasing smoke bombs.

Whoever believes it is a fool!

The host continued to smile: "Then President Lu, can you share your team management style?"

"Let nature take its course, eat when you should eat, play when you should play, don't keep anything in your heart, and emphasize inaction."

The host and the guests were stunned again. Why does President Lu always say the same things no matter what interview he receives?

That President Cai was quite abstract, but you are even more abstract than President Cai!

Lu Yu was actually quite helpless in his heart. He really only had these research and development insights, because he only did these things.

You can't let me fabricate something that doesn't exist out of thin air.

The host was unwilling. It was not easy for these two rising stars in the game industry to be in the same venue today. She had to find a topic to connect the two.

So she smiled: "Just now, President Cai said in the interview that the disastrous failure of 'Honkai Academy 1' told him that buy-to-play games are no longer viable, and gacha games are the way to go. What do you think?"

Although Lu Yu was also an employee in the Pay-to-win game industry in his previous life, he actually held a negative attitude towards the pay-to-win gacha model.

So he smiled:

"I disagree with President Cai's view.

Personally, I think that pay-to-win gacha games, no matter how beautifully packaged, are essentially a 'Skinner box' that exploits players' psychological weaknesses. Players are treated like lab rats constantly clicking buttons to get food rewards,

The gacha mechanism, by constantly increasing players' sunk costs, creates a gambler's dilemma, causing players to constantly throw money into it and get deeper and deeper. This is actually a form of PUA for users."

The host thought to herself that President Lu, you are speaking too bluntly. She quickly tried to smooth things over:

"But if the operator gives out benefits generously and allows free players and monthly card players to barely continue playing, although they don't play as comfortably as pay-to-win big spenders, they can actually maintain a basic gaming experience."

President Lu responded with a smile:

"As long as the numerical design is reasonable, even if you spend less money on the gacha, it can indeed allow players to get by,

However, the core of the game is to bring happiness to players,

Real life is already difficult enough. If playing a game, the level of comfort of playing also has to be divided into three, six, or nine grades according to financial resources, please forgive me for not agreeing with this design concept."

At this time, the barrage in the live broadcast room was also discussing:

"That's true. Recently, when I played 'Honkai Academy 2' and 'Expansion Million Arthur', I became addicted like a obsessed, especially when the gacha on the gacha interface spins, it feels particularly exciting."

"Upstairs, I'm the same way, but after spending a lot of money to draw, I feel empty for a while. At this time, if I encounter a a lucky person showing off their good luck to others, my blood pressure will be even higher."

"Drawing it out is not the end. After one or two versions, the character is likely to become obsolete, and you have to draw new cards again."

The guests in the audience clicked their tongues. How can a CEO of a game company always stand on the players' side and speak for the players?

gacha is indeed not the optimal solution for the player experience, but it is a very profitable business model.

Many manufacturers also plan to follow suit and try it.

Lu Yu continued to smile:

"Of course, there is no right or wrong in the business model. Making money is not embarrassing.

But I think we can consider the users more,

Imagine, the manufacturer carefully produced promotional PVs and character models, promoting fighting for love and beauty,

As a result, after the user is attracted, the gacha pool stretches out its thumb and forefinger to the player and rubs them together:

I'm sorry, you have to add money to draw lots.

最⊥新⊥小⊥说⊥在⊥六⊥9⊥⊥书⊥⊥吧⊥⊥首⊥发!(最⊥新⊥小⊥说⊥在⊥六⊥9⊥⊥书⊥⊥吧⊥⊥首⊥发!: The latest novels are first published on 6⊥9⊥⊥书⊥⊥吧⊥⊥!)

Then, for many players who are short on money, does this love become a bit realistic and heavy?"

After Lu Yu finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from the audience.

This President Lu is good at telling jokes.

The barrage also sighed:

"Actually, it doesn't matter if you reach out to us players for money. Game companies are not doing charity, they have to survive. The money I spend is like the bride price for marrying a wife.

But if the wife is broken into many pieces, and each piece is at least one or two thousand yuan, that's too much.

In this day and age, which wife is bought in installments?"

"Hey, a point card game costs at most dozens of yuan a month to play happily, and a single-player masterpiece costs only three or four hundred, but to marry a complete wife in a gacha game, you have to spend a month's salary for office workers, which is really unaffordable."

Cai Yuhao in the audience raised his head instantly.

要素察觉!(要素察觉!: Key elements detected!)

"Fight for all the beauty in the world."

This slogan is clearly the promotional slogan for their next-generation action mobile game 'Honkai 3', how does this kid know?

滋啦滋啦滋啦……(滋啦滋啦滋啦……: Zzzzzzzz……)

Lu Yu and Cai Yuhao's eyes collided, and sparks seemed to ignite in the air.

Cai Yuhao smiled and took the microphone handed over by the staff:

"I have also paid attention to the games produced by Taoyuan Township recently, and they are indeed doing well.

However, I found that, except for the initial Cat Paradise, the remaining two new works, one is more realistic and the other is more Q version, are not orthodoxACG(ACG: Anime, Comics, and Games).

Our company will soon launch a new 3D beauty girl action mobile game,

If President Lu is willing, we can let the market and players test through our respective next new works, who has a better business model and who has a deeper understanding ofACG(ACG: Anime, Comics, and Games) games!"

Cai Yuhao's words caused a lot of waves at the annual meeting.

Good boy, Mileyou is officially sending a challenge to Taoyuan Township!

Moreover, President Cai's vision is too advanced.

You know, the Huaguo market is still mainly PC games,

Mobile phone graphics chip technology has just made a major breakthrough, and Mileyou has launched a 3D mobile game.

Moreover, he doesn't care about revealing this project in advance.

Because he knows that even if he shows his cards, other manufacturers in the industry will find it difficult to catch up.

This is the arrogance of Cai Yuhao, a genius producer!

The surrounding guests also clicked their tongues in wonder.

They also turned their attention to Lu Yu on the stage.

Taoyuan Township has been firing on all cylinders recently,

Because of theSharingan(Sharingan: Copy Wheel Eye) problem, he criticized Tenghui,

Because of the unfair competition problem, he criticized Youyi,

Because of the drawbacks of the gacha mechanism, he began to sharply criticize Mileyou……

This is a true idealist with game feelings and determined to change the industry.

Many of them present also had the arrogance of Lu Yu when they were young, but they were quickly smoothed out by reality and years,

How long can this President Lu last?

……

After that, the industry annual meeting entered the next session, and foreign game industry big shots took the stage to share their experience.

Taking the stage was Nery Dackman, producer of Naughty Dog Studio under Sony Interactive Entertainment.

He has led the production of the "Uncharted" series and the "The Last of Us" series.

After taking the stage, Dackman was immediately surprised:

"I am very disappointed with the current situation of the Chinese game industry."
