Chapter 63: Sale
"Of course I have faith in our game!" Chen Qian said on the other side of the phone: "Since this is the case, we can only do this, I will immediately order the people below to do it!" ”
hung up the phone, Lin Qi couldn't help but sigh: "There are many popular people!" ”
On the day of the official release of "Plants vs. Zombies", Lin Qi rushed to Shenma Games early in the morning, and everyone in the game studio was waiting for the hotel to start selling.
"Out of the major shopping platforms, our official website is also on sale at the same time!" Chen Qian introduced to Lin Qi: "The sales channel and the download platform are not together, which can relieve a lot of network pressure!" ”
Lin Qi nodded, turned his head to look at Chen Qian, and asked, "Is the public relations over there on the major download platforms?" ”
"Of course, we've been doing this for a long time, and they'll all be available for download at the same time at nine o'clock!" Chen Qian nodded, and then said: "The evaluations of the major game evaluation websites will also follow!" ”
Obviously, Chen Qian was prepared in all aspects, Lin Qi smiled and nodded at him: "Not bad, very good!" ”
"In fact, we also borrowed the light of Mr. Lin, if it weren't for the amazing game show, there wouldn't be so many people to help promote it, and we wouldn't have seen a heated discussion on the Internet!"
"Now there are so many people helping to publicize, and the effect is a lot better, what is it called in Mr. Lin's words? That's right, tap water! Chen Qian smiled and patted Lin Qi's ass, but he could also see that he was sincere.
"Let's work together, Shenma games will definitely get better and better!" Lin Qi looked at Chen Qian and said with a smile.
At this time, Weibo also began to be lively, especially under the official Weibo of Shenma Games.
"Waiting for the release, get it as soon as possible, I'm looking for the future!"
"Upstairs brainless powder, it's done!"
"I just said, this game is also brainless fans can play, it was Lin Qi who made the money, Dong Weiwei still supports it, I am very disappointed in Dong Weiwei, and since then fans have turned to passers-by!"
"I despise the upstairs like this, I haven't seen the game at all, so I subjectively speculate, isn't it black for the sake of black?"
"Guess the sales, I think there will be 500,000 sales in 24 hours, as evidence!"
"Pay back 500,000, estimate 50,000 is not bad!"
WhatsMiner Games naturally also paid attention to the comments on Weibo, what they care about is not what the comments say, but how many comments, as for the negative comments, there is no need to do anything.
The so-called hype can't just be positive news, it must have both sides, you can have heat, and with heat, you can have a topic, and only then can you represent fire!
"Look at the situation, it's very good!" Lin Qi glanced at the statistics brought by the staff, and said with a smile: "Everyone cares about our game!" ”
"There must be other companies' trolls in this!" Chen Qian said helplessly: "But we don't have any evidence, they won't leave any handle!" ”
"It's just a mess, it won't make any difference!" Lin Qi waved his hand and asserted directly.
When the time reached nine o'clock, it was the opening of downloads and purchases, and Lin Qi also sat in front of the computer, ready to be an ordinary player and make a purchase.
Lin Qi did not choose other platforms, but directly chose the official website.
Download it on the official website and purchase the activation code on the official website.
Fortunately, the speed is okay, and there is no lag on the official website, the download was completed quickly, Lin Qi directly chose to install, and then started the game.
Unlike the beta version, this one is noticeably smoother and has decent speeds.
Soon Lin Qi hit the fifth level, and the activation page popped up again, and Lin Qi went to the official website to buy the activation code.
"The official website is well maintained!" There was no lag, no delay, Lin Qi said to Chen Qian beside him: "You keep an eye on it and see if there are too few people?" ”
Enter the activation code, activate the game, it was very smooth, Lin Qi put down the mouse, did not play, but quietly waited for the data.
As a die-hard fan of Dong Weiwei, and as a staunch supporter of Lin Qi and Dong Weiwei's love, Zhao Linlin naturally downloaded the game as soon as possible, and then directly entered the activation code.
"Finally ready to play!" Looking around, Zhao Linlin said with a bang.
After clicking on the trial, Zhao Linlin quickly entered the interface and quickly became addicted to the game.
At twelve o'clock at noon, Lin Qi stood beside Chen Gan, his face was very solemn, Zhang Qian on the side looked at the two of them, and said with some hesitation: "Why don't you two go to dinner first, I'll keep an eye here, once the data is transmitted, I'll send you two over!" ”
Chen Qian waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "The first three hours are very critical, if you don't see the statistics with your own eyes, I can't eat steadily, I'm waiting here, you accompany Mr. Lin to go!" ”
"It's okay to eat a little late!" Lin Qi also smiled and shook his head.
Although he is confident in "Plants vs. Zombies", at this moment, Lin Qi can't help but get nervous. You must know that this is of great significance to the Shenma game, and Lin Qi does not dare to be the slightest slack.
"Mr. Chen, the download count is out!" While Lin Qi and Chen Qian were waiting nervously, the staff on the side stood up excitedly: "From nine o'clock to now, the number of downloads from the official website is 290,000, and the sales volume of activation codes is 170,000!" ”
For this achievement, Lin Qi really doesn't know how far he has reached, but he can know it by looking at Chen Qian on the side.
At this time, Chen Qian had already jumped up excitedly, hugged Zhang Qian excitedly, and tears flowed down.
"Everyone takes out at noon, I'll please!" Lin Qi said loudly to all the employees: "What do you want to eat and buy, celebrate the banquet in the evening, let you Mr. Chen position yourself!" ”
After lunch, the statistics of the major platforms were also relaxed.
"Of the seven major download platforms, the total number of downloads in three hours is 640,000, plus the number of downloads on our official website has reached 930,000, which is a very good result!"
"I'll let people arrange it immediately, and within three hours of going online, the number of downloads will exceed one million, which is worth promoting!"
Lin Qi nodded and said loudly: "Of course you need to publicize it well, you must publicize it well!" ”
"Four shopping websites, the activation code sales of 460,000, plus the official website of 170,000, a total of 630,000, very good!" Chen Qian said with emotion: "We have finally made a popular game!" ”
"Come, Zhang Qian, let's have a drink!" Chen Qian held a wine glass, his eyes were red and he drank with Zhang Qian.
Lin Qi looked at the two of them and didn't say anything, their feelings are difficult for ordinary people to understand.
took out his mobile phone and quickly sent a Weibo: "The first game of Shenma Games "Plants vs. Zombies" was launched within three hours, and the number of downloads exceeded one million, thank you for your support and affirmation!" ”
After Weibo was sent, Dong Weiwei instantly liked it and forwarded it
"Congratulations, I hope you have more support!" Dong Weiwei also left a symbol of love in the back.
"It's heartbreaking to see the queen show her affection again, but the game "Plants vs. Zombies" is still doing well, I like it very much!"
"I don't want to see a show of affection, I want to see zombies eat brains!"
"Upstairs, congratulations, your brain has been eaten by zombies!"
The topic instantly set off on Weibo again, and Dong Weiwei's friends in the circle also began to forward it, and Lin Qi even saw Lin Shuhua's forwarding.
Seeing Lin Shuhua's Weibo, Lin Qi was stunned, she was busy during this time, and this woman didn't know what was going on. took a bite of Chengxian, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in Times Entertainment.
However, this woman's ability is not small, and she will definitely get enough benefits.
The popularity of "Plants vs. Zombies" has made many people unexpected, especially those companies that make games. In their opinion, Lin Qi was obviously joking when he made a game.
Especially what she did at the game show, it was not professional at all, although Dong Weiwei's momentum and publicity purpose were achieved, but the game always relied on quality and word of mouth!
But after the results came out, countless people were surprised.
"That's the report you gave me? The analysis you gave me? Let them study it carefully, why this broken game is popular, if you can't study it, you guys will get out! ”
Countless game company owners slapped the table, and countless people were working on Plants vs. Zombies.
Lin Qi didn't go to the celebration banquet in the evening, and Chen Qian and Zhang Qian didn't go either, so those employees could vent and have fun to their heart's content. These days, they are under a lot of pressure and they are not having a good time.
"Keep the clouds open and see the moon!" Lin Qi suddenly had such a feeling, when she returned home, Lin Qi found that Dong Weiwei was waiting for her: "It's so late, didn't you ask you not to wait for me?" ”
"My husband is working hard in his career, of course I have to support it!" Dong Weiwei greeted her with a smile and hung up Lin Qi's clothes: "The smell on my body is really bad, why don't you go take a shower?" ”
Lin Qi and Dong Weiwei lingered here, but the outside world blew up at this time.
Countless media are catching up with the news, and the headlines are naturally Shenma Games, of course, the main ones are Lin Qi and Dong Weiwei, or mainly Dong Weiwei, which is an unavoidable thing.
As for professional game companies and some players, the focus is on the number of downloads and sales of Plants vs. Zombies in 24 hours.
Although the three-hour sales are very hot, there is a certain fan effect in it, which even Lin Qi has to admit, and the sales volume of twenty-four hours is enough to explain the problem.
If "Plants vs. Zombies" is good enough, then the sales will definitely be good, which means that the game is really popular. For this data, Lin Qi is naturally very concerned.
When he got up the next morning, Lin Qi did not go to Shenma Game again, but waited for news at home.
Dong Weiwei also had a rare rest this day, and accompanied Lin Qi to breakfast, and the two of them waited quietly at home, and as time went by, the atmosphere gradually became tense.
After nine o'clock, Lin Qi even put down the newspaper in his hand. His eyes were fixed on his phone, waiting for it to ring.
