When Kevin's eyes turned to Kono Nakata, the latter shrugged and said, "If Sony Entertainment has plans to adapt and shoot the "Ridge Racing" series, I think the odds are higher, but I think that in the current situation, maybe the influence of "Ridge Racing" is not as strong as that of the opponent......"

Kevin looked disgusted, in his opinion, "Ridge Racing" is not as fun as "Need for Speed" in all aspects, if he had to choose, he would not have chosen this game in the first place, he would rather choose "Madden NFL", and he would not be stupid enough to fund the prize money with Namco, he hated the deceased Robert very much at this time, and the rest of the mess almost drove him crazy.

Kevin felt disgusted by Nakata's answer.

The third-rate actor said: "Director, as long as I make two more films, I will definitely become famous!" ”

The author said: "Editor, as long as I am recommended on the homepage every week, my book will definitely be popular, and I will definitely become a god." ”

Shit! It's obvious that your own things are too bad, but you have to blame others for not giving them a chance.

If "Ridge Racing" not only gets the opportunity to adapt the movie, but also gets the cover recommendation of "Game Pass" magazine, can also publish comics, serialize the novel of the same name, and recommend peripheral toys in toy stores around the world, so as to satisfy Hirono Nakata, then "Snail Racing", "Turtle Racing" and "Cars That Can't Be Driven" can also be popular.

A few people who don't have equity can't be relied on, and Kevin can only count on Ken Kutaragi and Muñoz.

Kevin gave up on the others completely, looked at Muñoz, and asked, "Mooney, what do you media circles say?" ”

Muñoz pushed his glasses and said, "From 6 o'clock to now." Within 3 hours, I received 24 phone calls, all from my friends. Some of them are concerned about how we will respond to CPL. Some people just want to see jokes and are very unoptimistic about us competing with WCG. I replied the same sentence to everyone. ”

"What?"

"We'll see!"

Muñoz smiled: "WCG has a promo. Do we have no system zuò? No, we also have promos. We have Sony Digital to do game CG, we also have well-known people interviews, and we have joint recommendations from professional media in the game industry, are we better than those sensational 'what is competition'? ”

CPL's promotional video did not use world-renowned sports stars to endorse, but interviewed many well-known entrepreneurs in the IT game industry in Europe, America and Japan, as well as ten professional game review agencies that used Muñoz's influence in the media industry.

Kevin's heart relaxed a little. He also thinks so, in his opinion, CPL is to gather a group of players around the world who are better at playing games, and get together to compete with each other, like a huge game carnival.

But he thinks that even if you play the world's first, it's not better to play the game, EA has some auxiliary publicity means, and players get bonuses. Merchants earn eyeballs, this is a win-win situation, this is the business philosophy of Wall Street investors - any product is a commodity.

So he was very dismissive of the "Beyond-the-game" concept that Longteng had come up with, and a game is a game. What does it mean to go beyond the game?

If his idea was known to Yang Yun, he would definitely be scorned by Yang Yun, Beyond-the-game is a game attitude and lifestyle. If EA doesn't really love games, it's just a commodity. Then the game of EA zuò will also become cold.

Muñoz continued: "The year before last, Microsoft released the Windows 95 operating system. The Rolling Stones and thousands of spectators and guests were invited to the playground of the University of Redmond, spending $300 million to advertise the operating system. This year, Oracle spent $80 million to advertise their flagship product, Oracle8, in New York Square, inviting Queen to sing in residence and binge-watching with the audience, and we can see that it's normal for IT companies to invite bands when they release new products. WCG can be opened with songs, and it's no surprise that we at CPL have prepared these as well. ”

Everyone nodded again, the guests invited by CPL were also very classy, Oram talk show gold medal Oram became the host of the CPL opening ceremony, the American local guns and roses were in charge, and there were six classic songs on the program list, which were enough to compete with the local host of the WCG and the Irish U2 band.

"The English proficiency of those two Chinese singers is really not flattering, and the English songs they sing make me feel very uncomfortable......"

"It's obviously a game organization for the whole world, why is it full of so many Chinese elements in it? It's so childish and it affects the overall feeling very much! ”

"I haven't heard of any of the other bands except the U2, and I wonder if anyone else has been brought in on the fly. Also, isn't O'Neal playing basketball, he can dance on stage, isn't the music opening ceremony of the WCG too unprofessional? ”

"Ruffian Eminem playing black rap? I've never heard of Linkin Park, they've won a Grammy? It was only established last year, right? It's funny! And the black-eyed peas, please, if I see the person in charge of Longteng in the future, I will definitely persuade them to pull these newcomers back quickly, so as not to be embarrassed here! ”

"Haha! That's right! ”

The room began to criticize the inadequacy of the WCG's opening ceremony, and at the same time had confidence in Oram and Guns N'T and Roses, and the CPL spent $500,000 to get these two people over, and they were certainly confident.

For the fame of the acting party, Oram and Guns N' Roses are indeed higher than U2 with a group of newcomers, Kevin agrees with this in his heart, but he is not the kind of person who feels invincible and good, in all fairness, he thinks that the singing level of the group of newcomers in WCG and the quality of the songs are quite high, in this regard, CPL and WCG should be equal, this is the most objective.

But the morale finally rose, Kevin did not stop others from mocking WCG for criticizing Longteng's unprofessionalism, he waited for a while, and continued to ask: "Since the promotional video, the opening ceremony, these are only stronger than WCG, not weaker, then in the media publicity, TV broadcasts, and game schedules, what do you think of Mooney?" ”

Everyone quieted down, and Muñoz smiled confidently: "Media publicity is our strength, there is no doubt about this, there are more than 30 professional media standing behind me, except for a limited number of countries such as China, which can basically cover the world's major game markets." As for TV broadcasting, WCG has three aspects, local satellite TV covers Asia, French Canal+ has less influence in Europe, and Fox TV can only rank fifth in North America, and our CPL cooperation is ABC, and Japan's Fuji TV, from the perspective of strength, everyone should understand, right? ”

With a sigh of relief, the stone in everyone's hearts was put down again, and they were no longer worried.

What Long Teng has, they have all of them, and they are stronger than Long Teng, what else is there to worry about?

Muñoz added: "WCG's strategy is to promote Asia with local TV, Canal+ for Europe and Fox for North America. We've all seen the Fox version just now, objectively speaking, it's decent, there are no too prominent highlights, and it's not offensive, but do you know what a friend of mine just said about the version of local Chinese TV? ”

Kevin asked curiously, "Is it doing well?" ”

Terry laughed, "I believe it's done very badly!" ”

Muñoz gave Terry a thumbs up: "My friend said it was a typical Chinese National Games model. Of course, I don't quite know what the National Games are, but I can hear from my friend's mocking tone that the grade is very low, definitely not a professional broadcast of a world-class competition, more like an amateur, and worse than the internship works of USC graduates! ”

"Hahahaha!"

"With more than a billion Chinese, can't find a director with a higher level of freshmen than NTU?"

"There are many places that can't be found, for example, football, there has never been a name of the Chinese team in world football, and the funny thing is that they actually set the Chinese team so strong on "Pro Evolution Football", Longteng Company is really painstaking!"

"Longteng Company put its own private goods into the game, it's not once or twice!"

It was another round of verbal criticism, and a strange phenomenon gradually arose in the conference room, as long as their side was better than Long Teng, they were instantly relieved, and began to criticize the shortcomings of WCG, and then took out their own advantages and comforted themselves.

Kevin's mood also became better, and he had one last question left: "Mooney, all the external conditions are better than WCG's CPL, what do you think about the game schedule?" ”

In response to this question, Muñoz did not make a statement, but looked at Ken Kutaraki: "President Kutaragi, you are a professional when it comes to commenting on games. ”

Kutaragi Ken had always been calm, and he had only laughed twice since he sat in this conference room, once at the beginning of greeting the other people, and once ten seconds ago.

His smile is not a winning laugh, but a smile that has always been weird.

When everyone was mocking Long Teng's unprofessionalism, a loophole here, a layman's act there, and saying that WCG was vulnerable, highlighting how professional and powerful his CPL was, Ken Kutaragi kept his face tight, and he was pondering.

Anyone who underestimates Longteng will not end well in the end, and Sony, as the biggest pillar of the Japanese game industry, has too much experience in the struggle between Ken Kutaragi and Yang Yun.

He only asked one sentence, and then the other four who were smiling and in a good mood were instantly speechless.

He asked, "Are WCG and CPL concerts or game competitions?" ”

You short-sighted guys, you're putting the cart before the horse! (To be continued......)
