Around noon.

The fat sister's call came.

Zhang Ye had just finished eating in the cafeteria and took the elevator upstairs, looking at a few colleagues in the elevator who were still looking down and whispering to each other, Zhang Ye didn't change his face, and didn't pay attention to it, when the floor arrived, he got off the elevator alone and picked up the phone.

Zhang Ye: "Fat sister." ”

As soon as the fat sister spoke, her address to Zhang Ye was different from before, becoming more and more casual, "Zhang'er, the trial version of our game has caused a big commotion!"

Zhang Ye smiled: "Ha, I saw it." ”

The fat sister is very emotional, "Now the domestic media are giving us free publicity, or you are popular, what is the matter you are involved in, those reporters and the media are all like chicken blood! Netizens and players really give face, when they hear that it is a game designed by you, they are all very popular! In the past, my sister didn't know how many fans you had, but now I look at it, it turns out that you have so many fans!"

Zhang Ye: "It's all about everyone giving face." ”

Fat sister: "Three days later, the game will be officially released!"

Zhang Ye: "Well, just wait for this day." ”

Fat sister: "Now the company is all waiting! What is your expected sales?"

Zhang Ye: "In what form?"

Fat sister: "The company's last game,We took the traditional way,Genuine CD issued,The result is a loss.,Don't mention it.,Mom-yes,This time you can't go the old way.,I can also see it.,Now the CD sale has been going downhill more and more.,Now it's the world of the Internet.,This time "Plants vs. Zombies" The sale also takes the network download mode.,Download for free.,The first three levels are free.,But if you want to continue playing, you need to register to buy a serial number.,We hesitated for a long time about pricing.,I think it's more appropriate in the range of five to fifteen dollars.,The details haven't been decided yet.,I want to hear your opinion.。 ”

Zhang Ye thought for a moment and said: "Then five yuan, the threshold is too high and hurts popularity, let's make small profits but quick turnover? ”

"Hey, you mean, and Plants vs. Zombies 2?"

"A must. ”

"Hahaha!

"Let's not be too optimistic, everything is uncertain. ”

"I understand, now that everything is ready, it's up to this last shudder! The company has pressed all the old books and repaid the loan, if "Plants vs. Zombies" really doesn't sell well, the company will close down!"

"Khan, that's not a fat girl!"

"I know, let's prepare for the worst! Of course, I've done the best, haha!"

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ye went back to the office and sat with Erlang's legs crossed, and put things aside from beginning to end in his mind. As far as this game itself is concerned, Zhang Ye has unshakable absolute confidence, he clearly knows that this game is ahead of all the puzzle games on this earth, which has been recognized by the market on his earth, but good games are good games, but sales cannot be copied, this earth also has the rules of this earth, and some places are still different.

For example, the release model.

For example, the starting country.

For example, the charging model.

There are differences between the two worlds, Zhang Ye can only guarantee that 95% of the original "Plants vs. Zombies" on his earth will be restored, but it is impossible to copy the distribution model and distribution region according to his earth, and he doesn't have this condition, this is a game made by foreigners, so he can't let him sell it abroad in this world first, right? So, Zhang Ye can only do everything that needs to be done, and leave the rest to the market!

This crossover, Zhang Ye undoubtedly values it very much, and he can't afford to lose, because he has been hidden by CCTV for so many days, his popularity has begun to stagnate, and now, it all depends on "Plants vs. Zombies" to increase his popularity! At the level of second-tier stars, the fierce competition is obviously not something that outsiders can imagine, second-tier stars are already familiar to the public, basically half of the people in the country know or can call their names, this is a star level that has completely owned the people's base, and the unpredictability is even greater, maybe which second-tier star suddenly has an acting skills that explodes into a movie with a box office of more than one billion and a good reputation, and the popularity must have flown up all of a sudden, which is not surprising at all, and it is also a regular thing, Zhang Ye naturally knows this, and also understands the truth of not advancing but retreating, what is the entertainment industry fighting forTo put it bluntly, it is to fight for popularity, Zhang Ye can't allow himself to stand still!

……

on Weibo.

A group of sunspots suddenly appeared at some point, and they were not aimed at Zhang Ye in or out of their words, but they were all going towards "Plants vs. Zombies"!

"You're all blind, what's so fun about this game!"

"Just look at the picture and know that it's rubbish!"

"Plants fighting zombies?

"Only mentally retarded people play this kind of game!"

"If this game can sell more than 500,000, I'll jump from the building!"

"Haha, you think too much, still 500,000? 200,000 is good! Don't look at the demo version being blown to the sky by the media game magazine, when you really want everyone to spend money to buy it, few people will buy it! Even if you want to play, everyone will wait for the pirated cracked version to come out and download it!"

There are many people who are popular, and so are games.

Many fans of "Plants vs. Zombies" immediately fought back, and the two groups of people scolded together!

……

It's bustling on the Internet, but it's not clean anywhere else.

For example, in the entertainment industry, many insiders are also paying attention to this matter, and they say everything in private.

"I don't even know what to say!"

"Why is this thing going to play games again?"

"I've never seen such a star who doesn't do his job properly, and he doesn't play cards according to the routine at all!"

"Hehe, I can see that Zhang Ye's main business is not a positive business, and I can't tell what Zhang Ye's main business is since last year! But then again...... This "Plants vs. Zombies" is really fun! Zhang Ye offends people and offends people, but he does have the ability, I have to admit it!"

……

The gaming world is also buzzing.

"He, Zhang Ye, is a big-name star, why did he grab food with us?"

"Who knows what this guy thinks!"

"The reputation of this game is so good, but the sales are not necessarily really optimistic, now the domestic game is weak, especially the puzzle game, it is just starting, although everyone has put on a lot of hats for "Plants vs. Zombies", and also given a lot of expectations, but the domestic game market environment is like this, piracy is rampant, foreign games occupy the market on a large scale, and it is difficult to rely on a domestic puzzle game to stand out from the encirclement!

"Yes, I'm afraid the sales won't be too high. ”

"But it's also a good momentum, at least we have puzzle games that can be taken in China, even if they lose, they are also good, although they are still honored!"

"Yes, someone has to make a start for a domestic game!

"Wait until the day of the release, and good luck to them!"

"Sales are not necessarily really bad, maybe this time our domestic games can really create a miracle! Who said that our domestic games are not as good as foreigners' games for a lifetime?"

There are also voices in the game industry that are not very friendly to "Plants vs. Zombies", but the vast majority of peers still support and support it, and even a few game company CEOs and game planners have publicly liked and forwarded "Plants vs. Zombies" on Weibo.

The reason is very simple, because in today's domestic game market, domestic games are not mainstream at all, accounting for only about a quarter of the market, and the rest are all invaded by foreigners' games. What they want to grab now is the market share of foreigners, Zhang Ye came out with a shocking puzzle game, which is also to make the market bigger for their domestic games, and make the cake bigger for all domestic game manufacturers!

This battle is not only Zhang Ye's own business.

This battle is a battle between domestic games and foreign games!

Laymen look at the lively, insiders look at the doorway, almost all the peers in the game industry have played the trial version of "Plants vs. Zombies", and some people have even studied it several times, more than a dozen times, although it is only a trial version, the official version of the true face of Lushan has not yet been seen by fate, but just the tip of the iceberg has given these colleagues in the game industry a shot in the arm, if you have to come up with a game that can compete with foreigners, from creativity, graphics, gameplay and other aspects, then undoubtedly, only Plants vs. Zombies can fight in one go, so the expectations in the gaming industry are high, and everyone's eyes are on the day the game is released!

They want to see what kind of answer the legendary Zhang Ye can hand over after he crosses over to their game field again!

Peers are waiting to see!

The media fanned the flames!

Players gear up!

Under this great anticipation, "Plants vs. Zombies" ushered in the release day!
