Chapter 486: The New King

Also in Pengcheng, when Molong Games' "Glory of Kings" with the help of Penguin QQ's large user interface, conquered the city in the mobile game market and constantly refreshed the monthly revenue data of mobile games, some people inevitably had to leave this city with the theme of coexistence of opportunities and difficulties, innovation and development.

Sitting silently at his workstation, Wang Xinwen looked at the empty row of desks in front of him, and his mind was full of indescribable feelings.

Watching the badge cards on the desk disappear one by one in the hands of the staff of the sundries department, Wang Xinwen had mixed feelings for a while.

"Mr. Wang, I'm sorry," just as Wang Xinwen was looking at the empty table in front of him, a young man walked up to him and pointed to the computer monitor in front of him, "Please cooperate with our work, we need to number this monitor, and then recycle it." ”

With a long sigh, Wang Xinwen nodded, trying to squeeze out an embarrassed smile, "Of course, I have been notified about this issue, so please do it." ”

Standing up and walking to the side, watching the staff quickly pack up the computers and other items on the table, all Wang Xinwen could do was be silent.

A few years ago, Wang Xinwen started his work at Penguin Games in this office area.

At that time, Zhang Hao and Yuan Shuai also entered the company with him.

At that time, Wang Xinwen had not yet established the ambition of establishing a self-reliant portal and achieving a career.

For him at that time, being able to work as a game producer in Penguin Games was already his ultimate dream.

Unexpectedly, just five years later, he was really entrusted with the important task of becoming the producer and project manager of Penguin Games' game "Storm Three Kingdoms".

It's just that when Wang Xinwen watched the game he led with joy go online, he didn't know what the opponent he was going to face was.

In the first month of launch, the turnover exceeded 200 million;

In March, the turnover exceeded 400 million;

"Three Kingdoms of Storms" can be described as defenseless in front of "Glory of Kings".

Not only that, but the monthly turnover of "Three Kingdoms of Storms", which has just been launched, is not even as good as "Dota Legend", which has been online for a year.

In the month when "Heroes of the Storm" was launched, "Dota Legend" still withstood the strong attack of "Honor of Kings" and won more than 180 million monthly turnover......

and "Three Kingdoms of Storms" is less than 30 million......

After barely supporting for nearly five months, the revenue data of "Three Kingdoms of Storms" finally made the top management of Penguin Games unbearable, and after discussion, the project team of "Three Kingdoms of Storms" was disbanded, and technical jobs such as programs and art were split and placed in other project teams, while Wang Xinwen, as a producer and project manager, was directly swept away.

Today is Wang Xinwen's last day at Penguin Games.

Until this time, Wang Xinwen's heart has always been haunted by a question that makes him incomprehensible.

"What is the attraction of Molong Games' "Glory of Kings" that can make so many people flock to it?"

…………

"What is the attraction of Molong Games' "Glory of Kings" that can make so many people flock to it?"

"The root of the problem is actually very simple," said Ma Xiaoyi, who was looking at the few documents he had just gotten in his hands in the director's office.

And Wang Bo, who sent the materials, sat opposite him.

Ma Xiaoyi didn't immediately look through the information in his hand, but nodded at Wang Bo first: "You said that the reason is actually very simple? Before reading the information, I want to know your opinion." ”

"Resource acquisition and fairness in combat," Wang Bo quickly said his conclusion, "At the beginning, most people in the industry were actually stunned by the skin gift package worth 2999 in "Honor of Kings", and wishful thinking regarded it as a kryptonite game that sells skin props......"

"Isn't that so?" Ma Xiaoyi tapped his finger on the table, "When we entered the game to experience it ourselves, most of the players we saw had purchased at least one skin, and according to the speculative data from the company's operations, this number has increased at least three times since it was connected to our Penguin Games' TGP platform, which means ......"

"So the average player has two or three different hero skins?"

Obviously, Ma Xiaoyi, as the director of Penguin Games, must have far more data source channels than Wang Bo.

Seeing that what Wang Bo said was different from what he knew, Ma Xiaoyi didn't wait for the other party to explain, and asked directly, "In this case, do you still think that the key to the success of "Honor of Kings" is fair competition?"

"Yes, Mr. Ma!" Wang Bo obviously did a lot of homework before he came, and when facing the doubts of his immediate boss, he did not panic, but continued: "Although players do have a variety of skins, according to my statistics, the actual value of these skins in battle is limited to attracting players' attention and distracting players......"

In other words, the role of these skins is limited to allowing the player to ...... Distracted?" Ma Xiaoyi felt a little incredible, "Then if you don't buy any skins, it won't have any impact on the battle?"

"In fact, exactly. Wang Bo nodded without hesitation, "As a hardcore player of MOBA games, if he only spent money to buy heroes without considering skins, in fact, he is completely possible...... Well, to be precise, it should be that he must be able to crush those players who only have skins and no skills through his own skills. ”

"Abandoning attribute crushing and emphasizing the player's manual operation technique, this is a game made with heavy gamers, the so-called game veterans?"

Ma Xiaoyi still seems a little unconvinced.

Penguin Games has always adhered to the path of lowering the barrier to player participation, and they have also reaped huge benefits by virtue of this strategy and the huge advantages rooted in the user import interface, and now there is a game on the market that is almost contrary to the concept of Penguin Games, but has achieved great success, and it is no wonder that Ma Xiaoyi finds it a little incredible.

"Mr. Ma, although it is difficult to play "Honor of Kings" well, its entry threshold is very low," Wang Bo smiled awkwardly and continued: "I gave that game to my family who have never played a game before, and they can basically know how to participate and play in the process of one or two games, so if you look at this condition, in fact, whether "Honor of Kings" can take off requires a huge number of user groups and promotion. ”

"And after cooperating with our penguin game platform, they even made up the final puzzle pieces?"

Ma Xiaoyi sat down dejectedly, feeling the deep malice of this world.

From that year, all the employees of Wolong Studio were taken,

and then buy the R&D data of the past three years,

In the end, with the strong ascent to the top in the Apple App Store, Penguin Games took the initiative to ask for cooperation with Molong Games......

It can be said that from beginning to end, Molong Media has taken everything into its grasp.

"Wang Bo, the contract we signed with Molong Games must be abided by, otherwise the reputation that Penguin Games has worked so hard to build will be over, I will immediately report the situation to Boss Ma, I don't care what method you use, you must find a way to dig a few backbones of the "Glory of Kings" project from Molong Games!"

"Remember, it must be the real backbone, not Wang Xinwen's kind of guy who has not achieved enough things and failed enough!

"Yes, I'll arrange it myself right away!"
