When the Black Hand finished his speech, there was a brief silence at the booth of Gamescom "Hell Capital".

Most of the game media personnel present were from Europe and the United States, and they couldn't understand what the Black Hand was saying. But even so, they could feel the pride and enthusiasm in the chest of the man in the suit standing at the booth!

After a moment of silence, a photographer who was shooting next to him finally slowly began to applaud.

As if a switch had been turned on, a gentle applause finally began to sound under the silence of the booth.

Then, like dominoes, the applause spread at a breakneck speed and soon "surrounded" the entire stand.

――――――――

At the headquarters of the Hellfire Company, the members of the planning team did not go home to watch the live broadcast, but still stayed in their offices.

Due to the delay of the broadcast network, they had just finished watching the "impromptu speech" of the Black Hand until this time. And then—

"Holy, NB!"

This group of unscrupulous teases cheered happily in the office.

Although it is usually unpleasant to look at that profiteer, they have to admit that that guy is quite powerful this time. Totally lived up to their expectations!

is worthy of being a famous profiteer on the supernova live broadcast platform back then, and the ability of the black hand to mobilize emotions is really extraordinary. Even when they sit in front of the computer and watch the live broadcast, they have a subtle feeling of "blood boiling".

"That dwarf is pretty good! He really deserves to be the man I like well! ”

A big man in the planning group raised a bottle of beer in his hand and said with a heroic smile: "Cheers!" ”

Accompanied by a chaotic cheer, everyone in the planning team drank in the office and laughed like crazy people.

――――――――

When the mafia from Hellfire Entertainment, under the watchful eyes of the Cologne Game Show, completed the "impromptu speech", the original unknown "Hell Capital" in China, the popularity suddenly increased several times, and suddenly stood on the cusp of the domestic stand-alone game media like "The Legend of the War of the Three Kingdoms" that year!

For a while, this name, which few people knew a month ago, was like a swipe, almost dominating the front page headlines of major game media websites:

"The strong are back! Hellfire Entertainment swept the Cologne Games Show with "Hell Capital"! ”

"Hell Capital is about to be released, and the bloody storm is coming!"

"The pride of domestic stand-alone games? Hellfire Entertainment is on the rise! ”

"From the incident of "Hell Capital", on whether domestic games can succeed in the world......"

Major media outlets have used exaggerated headlines to express their excitement. The domestic single-player game industry, which was originally like a backwater, began to surge in an instant.

As expected by the Black Hand and Zhao Nuo, they really made a big news this time, and the popularity of this news even far exceeded the imagination of the parties themselves!

When the Black Hand returned home from his journey at Gamescom, he had just rushed back to the company and was greeted like a hero's return. was lifted high by everyone and thrown to the ceiling, but he hit his nose.

"You bastards, are you trying to kill me?"

A guy with a bleeding nose was complaining, but his face had already shown the usual obscene smile.

"Well done." Zhao Nuo stepped forward and patted the "orator" on the shoulder approvingly.

"Of course, who do you think I am." The Black Hand narrowed his eyes obscenely: "I'm a businessman." ”

――If "Hell Capital" was a new star at E3, then after Gamescom, this game can be regarded as a big hit. The hard work of everyone in the company for more than half a year has not been in vain, at least for now, it seems that this game has really realized its value!

Zhao Nuo knows very well that with this kind of good "foreshadowing", the future prospects of this large-scale sandbox RPG that they have worked so hard to produce are obviously brighter.

So now, it's time to finish the rest more seriously.

Now, their games have already earned high expectations before they were released. But this situation obviously does not mean that they can relax, but they need to work harder!

Since it has already been a "highly anticipated" title before its release, players' expectations are sure to get even higher. In this case, even if the quality of the game is acceptable, it will not be able to meet the needs of the players at all.

So, it's obvious what we're going to do next.

On the Monday of the next week after the end of the Cologne Game Show, at the regular meeting of the Hellfire Company, after Zhao Nuo arranged the workflow as usual, he said "seriously":

"Let's fight again one last time, guys."

None of the company employees and game enthusiasts sitting in the conference room spoke, but their proud smiles and determined eyes already showed what they were thinking.

There are still about two months to go before the game is released, and their game is currently listed for pre-order on the online platform. And these last two months are the final moments that will determine the success or failure of this game!

All of you game lovers here, although you usually do a lot of work, the main entertainment after getting home from work is to stay at home and play games. But for a game company, such a staff is the most reliable.

Because, their love for games has long determined their enthusiasm for work.

In the current situation of seeing the success of the game they have developed, even if they don't have to push them, these guys will try their best to do their best. In the last two months before the game's release, the game is truly in perfect condition!

It's been nine months of hard work, and now it's time for the final sprint.

As for what to do, everyone at Hellfire Entertainment has a common answer.

- Fight!

――――――――

In the next two months, the machine on the 20th floor of the Wenlo Building, which was already running at full speed and running at full speed, increased its horsepower again, which can be described as "overclocking".

Some pedestrians who pass by the office building every night after work notice an unusual phenomenon:

No matter what night it is, the 20th floor of the Wenlo Building is always lit up. Even on Saturdays and Sundays!

In the eyes of others, such a phenomenon probably only shows that the company on the 20th floor is too unscrupulous, and deducts employees from working overtime every day.

Few people know that the guys who are working on the twentieth floor are working overtime on a completely voluntary basis.

Because at this time, in their opinion, there are too many things that need to be done to make "Hell Capital" reach the stage perfectly......

"The musical connection of this cutscene is flawed, it sounds like it has been broken, it feels a little uncomfortable, and it needs to be revised."

"There's a problem with the sticker for the third house on the left in the third block to the west, it's just a piece of paper. Hurry up and get it done! ”

"Why is the experience gauge gray, it's so inconspicuous in this context, players need to have a lot of effort to see clearly, I think you'd better change the color."

"What are those guys in the execution team doing, why haven't they taken out the finished product yet?"

"The thirteenth 'Dark Sewers' dungeon has taken too long to read, and it's still reading after a minute, so come over and see what's going on......"

-- Even in the middle of the night, the whole Hellfire entertainment was in a state of "extraordinary excitement". A group of red-eyed gamers who rely on coffee and energy drinks to drive away their sleepiness find out one by one the flaws that still exist in the game, and improve them as quickly as possible.

If the original "Hell Capital" was an unpolished piece of jade, after these days of modifications, this game has begun to move towards the direction of "exquisite jade carving".

In a large sandbox RPG, bugs are inevitable, and the difference only lies in the number of bugs.

And what the people of Hellfire Entertainment are doing now is to keep reducing bugs, so that this game can be on her stage in her most perfect appearance!

"You haven't slept in two days, are you okay?"

In Xia Xiaoling's office, Zhao Nuo, who was sitting on the sofa, cast his eyes with a little worry on the girl who was still "fighting" against the computer screen.

"No problem!" Xia Xiaoling nodded quickly, looking completely tired.

As the most important developer of the engine used in "Hell Capital", this seemingly natural girl is actually the "backbone" of the current game development work.

Because of this, her work is also extremely heavy. In contrast, Zhao Nuo, who is in charge of game planning and supervision, has become much more "idle" at this time.

"Let's go to bed first, if it's simple debugging, I can do it too." Zhao Nuo said.

In the year since joining the game company, he is not the same as before, he does not know anything about game programming.

――When she was more idle before, she bought a few books and studied on her own, plus she "stole a teacher" from Xia Xiaoling and the execution team, and now although she can't compare to these professional programmers, she still has no problem completing some relatively basic operations and modifications.

"Zhao Nuo hasn't slept for two days, you should go to sleep too!" Xia Xiaoling still has no intention of leaving her post.

"I'm totally fine. It's better for you to go to bed first, it's not good for the skin if a girl doesn't go to bed early. Zhao Nuo found a reason to coax Xia Xiaoling to sleep, but unfortunately it didn't seem to work at all.

As a deep game nerd, whether it is himself or Xia Xiaoling, they all belong to the kind of storage that can concentrate for a long time, even in this situation of not sleeping for two days, there will be no difference in work.

However, Zhao Nuo knows very well that this kind of staying up late for a long time has a very great impact on the body. It's okay for young people like the company to try it once in a while, but if they are older and still play this set, maybe there will be some accidents.

Just as he was about to continue to persuade "the boss" to go to sleep, he heard Sam in the hallway. Quint's cheers:

“GOGOGO！”

After experiencing the development of "Hell Capital", the leader of the "execution team" from the United States, who always looked cold, finally took off his usual mask and revealed the essence of "joy and comics".

It wasn't until the end of Gamescom that the game system was reopened. Zhao Nuocai finally realized that the group of game developers who loved bloody special effects in the execution team had actually not done their best before.

And what exactly their "full force mode" looks like, just go to the execution team's office now and "admire" it.

I put down the white sheets I didn't know where to buy on the floor next to the table, and when I was sleepy, I lay down on the sheets and slept for a while, and when I woke up, I continued to work without saying a word. In addition to eating and going to the toilet, these guys spend almost 24 hours in their offices, which is a model of "best employees"!

"What a bunch of crazy people......" Zhao Nuo smiled thinking of the appearance of those guys in the execution team.

He still remembers the former Sam. Quint once said to himself that "The Executioner" was produced by them in six months.

At that time, Zhao Nuo thought that guy was bragging. By this time, he had finally begun to believe in Sam. Quint's words.

With their insane work mode, it doesn't seem impossible to make "The Executioner" in six months!

Thinking of this, Zhao Nuo couldn't help laughing out loud, and then heard Xia Xiaoling's voice coming from behind the desk:

"Is Zhao Nuo crying?"

“……”

Hearing Xia Xiaoling's unexpected remarks, Zhao Nuo strode forward to the desk, only to find that the girl who was always very stupid now looked even more stupid.

-- Dark circles under the dull pupils and long black hair were scattered over the shoulders. Even though her voice still sounded excited, the girl looked like she was seriously ill at this time.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Nuo immediately helped the girl up, hugged her fluttering body, and put her on the couch at the entrance of the office:

"It's time for you to sleep."

"I'm not sleepy...... Whew......"

Xia Xiaoling, who didn't close her eyes for two days and two nights, finally came into contact with the sofa, turned into a rhythmic snoring sound before she was halfway through her words.

"Huh."

Looking at the girl lying on the sofa and snoring, Zhao Nuo finally breathed a sigh of relief. Sit in front of Xia Xiaoling's "royal computer" and stare at a string of codes on the screen:

"Leave the rest to me, idiot."
