In the conference room of Netone Game Company, after a day of rushing work, the evaluation results of the PC version of "God of War" have come out, and the evaluator is reporting to the superiors.

"In terms of production, the production of Hongxin Games this time is still very sophisticated, and the standard is much higher than ours. ”

"But in terms of market satisfaction, it's not ideal. ”

"Tell me, why is that?" one of them asked.

"The so-called success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He. It is precisely because they are so well made that the computer hardware required to run the game is also very high. In terms of the current domestic user configuration, most of the models cannot operate normally. This limits the promotion of their games, and no matter how good the production is, it can't be popular. ”

After the evaluator finished speaking, the management of NetOne Games couldn't help but have some smiles on their faces.

The marketing manager said: "Too much focus on quality and ignore market acceptance. This is also the reason why many foreign games cannot be popular in China.

Someone asked, "Didn't they say in the announcement that it could be solved?"

"That's just an announcement. "If you want to really solve it, you can't do it unless you take their game down." That would give them no advantage and they would waste a lot of research money. ”

"As for the game accelerator they say, it's a joke!"

"We also have our own game accelerator, the principle of which is nothing more than the use of VPN technology to make virtual dial-up, so that the networks of telecommunications, Netcom, education networks and other operators can smoothly access each other, and even proxy foreign servers. ”

"This technique is of little use to the problems of the PC version of God of War on the Red Ground. ”

The manager of the technical department joked: "Unless their accelerator can upgrade the user's computer hardware, otherwise there will be one more accelerator when playing the game, and the more you get stuck!"

"Hahaha!" everyone laughed.

……

Penguin Games got the same report.

"Hongxin is still too young!" said a senior executive, "the way foreign game design and operation are not applicable in China." ”

"It's like a fee model, most foreign games are charged. In China, it is a free-to-play game, using value-added services to make money, but it is more profitable. ”

"It's better that way. Another said, "If they want to go the high-end route, then we'll go the mass route." ”

"Ahead of schedule to release our PC version of Chicken to seize the market. A competitive game, just going into the niche won't work. When the mass players are in our game, they will not be very competitive. ”

In Hongxin Game Company, the mood of the employees is not very optimistic, especially the PC business of "God of War". The more popular the game, the higher their payouts and vice versa.

Now that the internal test is released, the response is not very good, and the top and bottom are thinking about solutions.

"Why don't you change the game? It's about the same as PUBG: Battle Royale. Juan suggested.

"There's no hurry. Lu Zixin said calmly, "The official version will be released after the online game accelerator is perfected, and it can also have the effect of drainage." ”

In fact, not only Zhu An, but also Liu Tong, Liang Song and other executives of Hongxin have mentioned this issue to Lu Zixin, and they have all been suppressed by him.

Before the equipment arrived, Lu Zixin couldn't say anything to them. Internal testing is only to collect data, so that there is an analysis basis when the cloud host assists in calculation.

The popularity of the PC version of "God of War" quickly went down, because even after qualifying for the closed beta, more than half of the players still did not have the hardware to play the game.

And players who have enough conditions to experience the game are naturally applauded. There are even people who configure high-performance computers specifically to play this game.

A few days later, Lu Zixin finally got a reply from the Red Queen.

In the Wanjie Technology chat group, as soon as the red queen went online, she hurriedly went offline again, leaving a red envelope.

Lu Zixin clicked on the red envelope, and the group prompted: "Congratulations on getting the red envelope from the Red Queen, a 'Cloud Computing' supercomputer, a 'Cloud Computing' auxiliary program, and a set of special emoji packs for the Red Queen." ”

Seeing the first two, Lu Zi was overjoyed, and when he saw the last one, he suddenly became puzzled.

"Why do you want to give me this?" he clicked on the special emoji and saw that there were tens of thousands of different kinds of emoji pictures inside.

There is also a message after the red queen under the emoji: "Group leader, you have too few pictures, you can't fight with me at all, these are for you." (Emoji: How lonely it is to be invincible)"

Lu Zixin almost vomited blood, but he didn't expect that he was actually despised by the Red Queen! I had to find a chance to let her try the permission dog - no, it was the power of the group leader!

With these things in the back of his mind, Lu Zixin began to work on the server. This cloud computing supercomputer is also produced by the umbrella company, and Lu Zixin took some means to ship it to the company "reasonably".

Laying equipment, software matching and other things have to be done by Lu Zixin himself. After getting the red queen to teach computer technology, he can play with these.

The company's technical personnel can only play an auxiliary role.

As long as the laying of the cloud host is completed and the online game accelerator is launched, the problem of the PC version of "God of War" will no longer be a problem. Moreover, the online game accelerator itself is a big killer, if it is operated properly, the status of Hongxin Games in the online game industry will be unshakable!

While Hongxin Games was still busy developing online game accelerators, Penguin Games couldn't wait to make a move.

Penguin News: "Penguin Agency, the official version of the PC version of the national server of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Battle Royale" has been released!"

"In order to give Chinese players the best gaming experience, Penguin has teamed up with PUBG (Blue Hole) to provide technical support such as network optimization, server expansion, and plug-in strikes for PUBG: Battle Royale to create a positive and positive game atmosphere. ”

……

Following Penguin News, other online media outlets also forwarded or dissected the news at the same time.

Phoenix Technology News: "First there is steam, then there is a day, and Daddy Penguin is still ahead!" Penguin Games officially released the national server version of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Battle Royale", and "Chicken" is coming!"

Game Information Network: "League of Legends is in danger, the most popular competitive online game is finally on the national server!"

Weibo headline: "Penguin Chicken Online Game Released!"

Zhihu: "Will the chicken online game released by Penguin today become popular?"

Post it: "Click to download Penguin Eat Chicken, send luxury dress!"

On the same day, the online media was overwhelmed with the news of the penguin chicken game, which showed the online publicity ability of the penguin company.

On the same day, the number of downloads of the PC version of the penguin chicken game exploded, and the figure of playing the penguin chicken game can be seen everywhere in Internet cafes and Internet cafes across the country.

Some players who switched to playing chicken mobile games because they couldn't play online games also moved to play chicken on the computer.

Those players who were originally playing the online game of eating chicken through the accelerator have also returned to the genuine version of the national server, which has boosted the popularity of this game.

The layout of Penguin Games is not only that, the major live broadcast platforms, Penguin Live, Huya, Douyu, Panda, etc., have all opened live broadcast channels for this game, and some high-traffic anchors cooperate with live broadcast promotion.

In a short period of time, the computer version of the chicken game, the penguin has taken the lead. And the most popular mobile game "God of War in the Wilderness", the PC version is still in internal beta and has not been publicly tested.

Behind the silence of the Red Letter Game, there is a brewing explosion!
