The platform chosen by Nie Wei is the game channel competition that has just been established. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In fact, Nie Wei's choice is quite helpless, after all, this competitive channel is a paid channel, he belongs to the SMG Group, and SMG is actually funded by Pearl Radio and Television Station, although it is backed by the mountain, but after all, it is necessary to charge an additional fee in addition to the cable TV fee, so in fact, the number of users of this platform is not too much.

This is also the reason why Nie Wei only signed a one-season contract with the other party, because Nie Wei is not ready to develop on this platform for a long time, which is not conducive to the development of the game, and in places such as South Korea, Europe, and the United States, Nie Wei also chose to sign once a year.

During this year's buffer period, what Nie Wei has to do is to cooperate with the telecom network and set up a live broadcast website, which is the foundation of game promotion, why will "League of Legends" be so popular in the future? It can be said that live broadcast is the soil that gives them to thrive.

As for the team, Nie Wei doesn't need to worry about the most, as soon as he hears the prize money of the event, the response of the professional teams around the world is not to mention how enthusiastic.

The first to receive the registration was the veteran professional team ME noted in China.

This team is currently the most famous in China, and the star player in the team, Li Xiaofeng, has just won the first War3 World Championship in China, which not only makes the project of e-sports begin to enter the field of vision of ordinary people, but also plays the best advertisement for the players themselves and the club behind them.

After iFLYTEK announced the prize pool of the major events of "League of Legends", ME, which has long been optimistic about "League of Legends", was the first to respond to sign up, led by this star team, led by this star club, and some new "League of Legends" teams have also sprung up.

Nie Wei knows very well that many of these teams are indiscriminate, and even some Internet café teams dare to come to sign up, so in the registration process, Nie Wei specially set up asset review standards, which will put an end to most of the teams at once, if you just do this, I am afraid that Nie Wei's league will not be organized, and the eliminated teams will also complain.

But Nie Wei has other tricks, it doesn't matter if you don't have enough assets, you still have the strength, Nie Wei will also hold a knockout tournament at that time, and finally select a certain number of winning teams from these teams, and form a first-tier league lineup with the teams that have successfully reviewed their assets before, and the total number of teams is tentatively set at twelve.

And Nie Wei has not forgotten to give those eliminated teams another chance, and select twelve more teams from the remaining teams to form a second-tier league, which also has bonuses, and the excellent teams in the second-tier league also have the opportunity to be promoted to the first-tier league, and the bottom team in the first-tier league may also be relegated to the second-tier league, just like a football game, so that each team has a sense of crisis and must always maintain their competitive state.

However, even if it is divided into two episodes of the league and digests twenty-four teams, this is still a small part of the teams that have signed up, so what about the remaining teams?

Nie Wei didn't abandon them, and at this time, the regional event was launched.

These teams can sign up for these regional tournaments and compete online, with the best teams going to play offline, and the winner has the right to compete for a place in the second division with the bottom team in the second division.

Even in order to increase the competitiveness of professional teams, Nie Wei also imitated professional football games, and divided part of the benefits of broadcasting to the teams in the league, the income of the first-level league is naturally more than that of the second-level league, and the income of the second-level league is certainly not comparable to those teams in the region that have no dividends.

And the rest of the world is the same system, there is nothing to say about unfair, after all, in the end, it is all about strength, even if you get a place in the first league with money in the first round, but if the team is not competitive, you will be relegated after a year, and then it will be useless to have more money.

"But with the prize money and operating expenses of this event, it seems that we are still losing money. After Ma finally finished settling the account, he couldn't help frowning and asked Nie Wei, obviously wanting an explanation.

"The immediate benefits are only temporary, the future interests are long-term, what we are fighting for now is not the money in front of us, but the influence in the e-sports circle, since we want to do it, we will be the leader of this industry, and when this circle is cultivated and matured, it is also the time for us to collect the fruit, and the benefits will ......" Nie Wei said here, suddenly picked up paper and pen, and wrote down a string of numbers.

Mr. Ma raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but be a little surprised in his heart, but Nie Wei pointed to this number seriously and said, "I dare to guarantee." ”

"Three years, three years to make a profit, otherwise this competition will not be able to be held. Mr. Ma stretched out three fingers.

"No problem. Nie Wei knows that this is the number of years that the other party has given himself to develop, but three years is enough, and it is not practical, Nie Wei feels that the second year will not be like this year, and the third year can be completely profitable, and the results at that time are enough for Mr. Ma to support this game to continue.

After chatting about the league, Mr. Ma turned the topic back to the game, but it was not "League of Legends", but a new game.

Since Nie Wei joined Xunfei, he has planned two games, and these two games are also the main products of Xunfei at present, and more than half of the company's annual earnings are supported by these two games, and Xunfei's stock can rise all the way, and these two games are also indispensable.

But Mr. Ma will not be satisfied because of this, so now he is looking for Nie Wei to ask for a third game.

"I don't have any good ideas yet, but I'm interested in stand-alone games, does Mr. Ma have the idea of investing?" Nie Wei replied, and this answer surprised Mr. Ma.

Stand-alone games? Five years ago, he might have moved his mind, but now he hears that stand-alone games are hard-hearted, after all, the companies outside that have collapsed one after another are doing stand-alone games, and now in the Chinese stand-alone game circle, except for the old brand, how many of the rest can support it?

It can be said that if you are doing a stand-alone machine now, it is really a lot of gold yuan scattered out, and you can't even hear a sound.

To put it bluntly, it's the same as music, it's all pirated and harmed, but what can be done? Nie Wei obviously saw that Mr. Ma was not interested in this aspect, so he didn't talk deeply.

After Nie Wei left, Mr. Ma directly called a subordinate and asked Nie Wei if he had established any new game companies recently.

"I haven't heard of it, but he has set up a variety show company, which seems to be filming an outdoor variety show, and the online game company really hasn't heard of it. The subordinate replied.

After hearing this, Mr. Ma put down the phone with confidence.

The relationship between him and Nie Wei is a bit complicated, that is, they are partners who cherish each other, but at the same time they are competitors, just like he never asks Nie Wei about social games, because there is competition in business between the two sides, and it is useless to ask if he knows.

Now that he knows that Nie Wei is not going to start from scratch, Mr. Ma is also relieved, and it is right to think about it, Nie Wei's mind may be on the league of "League of Legends", even if he does not specifically design and operate the business, but those terms alone are enough for him to have a headache, how can he think of new games?

As for the stand-alone game mentioned by Nie Wei, Mr. Ma only thought Nie Wei was joking, who didn't know that the money that a so-so online game could make was dozens or even hundreds of times that of a stand-alone game, Nie Wei is such a smart person, of course he will not jump into this pit.

It's a pity that there are exceptions to everything, and Nie Wei is really interested in stand-alone games.

Although he didn't take action, Nie Wei really had the idea of investing in a single-player game, although it was still just an idea, but Nie Wei also had the determination to do it, but he didn't find a good project for the time being.

At the same time, a middle-aged man with black-rimmed glasses and a plaid shirt had just finished his work at a game company on the island, and in his spare time, he searched for news about games on the Internet.

The first thing that catches your eye is the TV series "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" that is being broadcast on Treasure Island recently, looking at these praise ratings and well-made reports, this middle-aged man has a wave of envy in his eyes, once upon a time, he was also a stand-alone game producer on an equal footing with Yao Xian, but now, Yao Xian's "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" The brand is still standing, and it has reached the fourth generation so far, but he has long since changed careers, and is currently making a tepid online game, and his head is no longer thinking about creativity, but thinking about a bunch of operation plans.

Now that the games of the old rivals have been adapted into TV series, and their fame is getting bigger and bigger, which makes him really envious.

Subconsciously,He searched for news about his old game.,The latest report was also two years ago.,It's really embarrassing.,But just when he was about to close the web page.,Suddenly saw a message with a date within a week.,This made him interested.,Click on it.,Actually entered a place similar to a forum.。

It turns out that this is a post bar that has just been established for less than a year by Qianbaidu, and what he entered is one of his old games, called "The Legend of Martial Arts Heroes".

To his surprise, this game has been around for a certain number of years, and there are at least hundreds of people discussing it in this post bar, and the date of the post is very fresh, and the first page is basically news within three days.

There are help posts, technical posts, and some posts that explore the hidden content of the game, and of course, there are also thank you posts, but they all reveal a deep love for this game.

During the browsing, the producer was even pleasantly surprised to find that the management team of this post bar also designed a beautiful game bar magazine, which contains strategies, game fanfiction written by bar friends, and some news reports and fangraffiti about the game.

The content made him feel a warm feeling when he looked at it, he really didn't expect that even after so many years, there would still be so many players who liked his game, which really moved him too much.

Click on a post at random.,It's a data post compiled by a bar owner called bitter tea.。

It is a detailed summary of the weapons, books, martial arts, sundries, herbs, fish, etc. that have appeared in the game, and even the pictures are very well matched.

Click on another post,It's a detailed guide written by a player for the game.,The producer looked at it carefully for a long time.,Found that this strategy has basically mined all the content that can be developed in the game.,And it also involves a relatively perfect route.。

The reason why it is relatively perfect is because it is impossible for everything to be perfect when this game is made, there are always trade-offs in between, and players can choose a lot of routes, perhaps it is precisely because of this degree of freedom that this game has such a long life.

The producer also opened some fanfiction articles and looked at them, although the writing was good and bad, but he read them with relish, because from these articles he could see the author's preference for the content of this game, just like many people hate a Wudang disciple, because this character is very bad, and many people pity a heroine, because of her tragic background.

The emotions of the player's reaction are quietly the pride of the game producer, because it means that the player really substitutes himself into the game, rather than playing for boredom, which is a great affirmation of the game producer.

Soon he was attracted to some more posts with relatively repetitive content.

"This game is really fun, there is no second generation, ask for the second generation. ”

"Isn't there a new generation of this game? ”

"Why don't you keep doing it, I feel like this game is good, but it's not complete, and I think the content can be expanded several times. ”

"There's too little time to play, it's not fun to play, is there really no sequel anymore?"

One question after another is like an arrow, straight into the heart of this producer, so many players' desire made him both moved and ashamed after watching it, it was his fault for not insisting on making the game more complete, and it was his fault for not being able to continue to release a sequel, in short, on the road of stand-alone, he did have an unforgivable sin.

But why did he want to bear this sin?

If the funds were sufficient, if the boss of the game company was willing to give them more time, as a game producer, of course, he also wanted to be able to make the game more complete, after all, this is like his child, the smarter and cuter they are, the more satisfied they will be, who would want their child to lack arms and legs?

And changing careers is also a last resort.,In fact, after this work,,They also tried to continue to make stand-alone.,But the sales of the next works are really not good.,For the sake of life,He had to give up his stand-alone dream.,Go with the flow and start an online game.。

But after reading the post bar today, he not only asked himself, is this really what he wants?
