Chapter 60: Achieving Achievement - Comeback!
Shen Miaomiao's first-day results of "Ghost Phobia" are known.
More than 2,000 copies!
It's not even as good as the sales results she predicted before!
That's why she was so relieved to throw the golden wind aside and spend a week at home tackling the paper.
After all, even if Psychophobia can maintain sales of 2,000 copies a day, the revenue for a week will be about 650,000 at best, and after deducting the commission, it will be about 500,000.
It's still far from the cost of two million!
As soon as she thought of this, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but be sincerely happy, thinking that the first thing she would do when she returned to the company tomorrow was to kiss the green fifty yuan on her desk!
Then I introduced it to it, and I said that there are many brothers and sisters to accompany it!
Those brothers and sisters are beautiful!
All of them are dressed in bright red clothes!
And it's all in bundles!
That thing in the money counter, hula-
It's the most beautiful symphony in the world!
Shen Miaomiao had even thought of herself swimming in a sea of banknotes.
Then, I heard a crisp sound in my head!
【Ding! It's time! This round of investment settlement is complete! 】
[Item: Psychophobia]
[Project investment amount: 2 million yuan]
[Project rebate amount: 0 yuan]
[Time remaining for settlement: 0 (settled)]
【Ding! Host turnaround detected! Achieve the Hidden Achievement - Make a Comeback! 】
【Achievement Reward: Super Guarantee】
[Rewards have been distributed, hosts can use them at any time!] 】
Shen Miaomiao's smile was still on her face, but her whole person was petrified.
It's like it's dropped in the game Earth OL.
Yes?
Has it begun?
It's over.
The brain was down for two minutes!
Shen Miaomiao raised her hand stiffly and mechanically logged in to the enterprise background of the Yiyou platform on the computer to view the data.
See the title of Psychophobia in the [Latest Release] column, followed by its current sales data -
Real-time sales: 55,557 sets
Total sales amount: 2500065 yuan
Looking at the two lines of numbers, Shen Miaomiao effortlessly calculated in her heart the final profit of the seven days after the removal of the commission of "Psychophobia"-
2000052 yuan.
Not much.
It will be like the total investment amount is fifty-two dollars more.
Without the slightest hesitation!
Shen Miaomiao made a completely instinctive action!
"I-!! the frog of the day"
Syllable!
Shen Miaomiao slapped the laptop shut!
What about the pit daddy!
More than 2,000 servings on the first day, how can it do more than 50,000 servings in just one week?!
This is almost catching up with the sales of medium and large somatosensory cabin games!
Shen Miaomiao is going to go berserk!
In fact, if she had failed to lose money, she would not have had such a big reaction.
Anyway, this is not the first time that I have failed to lose money.
The point is that this bastard system is too ridiculous!!
I also deliberately jumped out of a "comeback" achievement for myself!
Oh!
I lost five dollars last time! Earned an extra fifty this time!
I'm going to make a comeback?!
Can I afford these two b-money!!
Shen Miaomiao felt that the system was maliciously mocking herself!
Of course!
The most hateful thing is not the system, but the mastermind behind the obstruction and maliciously increasing the sales of my game!
Two thousand on the first day, five thousand in a single day, Shen Miaomiao is not mentally retarded, of course she can see that there is a problem here!
I immediately concluded that during the week that I didn't pay attention to the company, there must be some external cause involved!
Otherwise, the game's sales would not have skyrocketed!
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao turned on the computer again and typed "Phobia" into the search engine.
Let's go.
Soon, there was an overwhelming amount of news on the pop-up webpage -
Terror is coming! A number of review sites have given ghost phobia super high scores! 》
"Over 9.5 on all platforms! Psychophobia creates a new genre of horror games! 》
What kind of game has won so many high scores? An exclusive feature will give you an in-depth analysis of the essence of ghost phobia design! 》
《……》
Evaluation?!
Shen Miaomiao is full of question marks!
This kind of publicity, she has also heard Gu Sheng say before.
It is said that this is a very strong means of publicity, and it is very well recognized by players!
But the problem is that, generally speaking, the mainstream professional media evaluation team will only pick big works for evaluation.
A work of more than 100,000 people like theirs can't get into the eyes of others at all!
So...... Where does this so-called assessment come from?
Shen Miaomiao continued to scroll down the mouse——
"Art Games Announces Exclusive Theme for Ghost Phobia! Two steps to teach you to claim quickly! 》
Supernova Treatment! Yiyou released a blockbuster event, and the topic of ghost phobia games was withdrawn from the body sense cabin! 》
《……》
I looked at the screen for two seconds!
Shen Miaomiao didn't hold back, and was laughed at on the spot!
Pointing to the words on the screen, gritted his teeth:
"Good boy, you fucking ......"
It's you!
Shen Miaomiao sighed in her heart!
Dogs take rats!
Shen Miaomiao, a smart person, immediately reacted that it was the extra 80,000 yuan he gave that made Yan Sheng misunderstand!
Big brother, can you make up for it......
I'm just trying to make the production cost a little higher within the limits of the system......
What do you say you're wearing a full vest with me......
But!
Think again!
Isn't that right?
Before, Lao Gu told her about media evaluation, saying that this is an extremely powerful double-edged sword publicity method.
If the game is good, the evaluation will put the game on the altar and drive the sales to climb steadily.
But if the game is not good, the review will also unceremoniously point out the problem, and it can even be counterproductive to the game's sales!
And!
Those mainstream evaluation media are very fond of feathers.
You can pay or ask them to do the review, but the result of the assessment is out of your control!
Good is good, bad is bad!
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao scratched her head a little.
Because in her opinion, Psychophobia is completely a counterculture work, and even to put it mildly, it fundamentally destroys the setting mode of horror games all along!
Why are the big guys still unanimously applauding???
Shen Miaomiao really couldn't understand it.
So I casually clicked on one of the most popular evaluations and read them carefully-
Black Box Review: Ghost Phobia: A Ghost Card That Redefined Horror Games (9.8/10)
Shen Miaomiao looked at the score of 9.8 and grinned.
It's so high!
Flip the screen and look down, and see that it is written in the evaluation -
[It's no exaggeration to say that this is the best horror game I've ever played on the somatosensory cabin platform in the past five years, and there is no one]
[The reason why I say this is because it created an unprecedented 'online horror game' genre]
[Secondly, and most crucially, it has created a new branch of horror games from scratch]
[We call it psychological horror]
[It cancels the usual weapon settings of traditional horror games, allowing players to be unarmed and panic at all times]
[It cancels the stereotyped lengthy process of traditional horror games, shortens the tasteless foreshadowing, and presents it immediately]
[It cancels the empty map inherent in traditional horror games, creates a cramped space, and the tension level is full]
[From vampire survivors to phobia, Goldwind once again proves their unique understanding of the game]
[From the graphics to the sound, from the ambience to the many settings, this game seems to remind you all the time - there are ghosts here, but there is nothing you can do]
[And this is precisely the most subtle thing about psychological horror]
【……】
Looking at the lines of evaluation texts, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but slowly frown-
These blown up settings......
Why do I look so familiar?
Let's take a look at the player reviews below -
'To the point, to the point, well-founded (thumbs up)'
"Don't say anything else.,The feature of no weapons is a real cub.,It's really panicked after entering the game (angry)'
"The setting of the short process greatly compresses the lengthy foreshadowing of the game, and it goes straight to the theme, and the design is really awesome (I have it)'
'Spend 45 bucks and play for five minutes and kick me, I'm stupid (yes)'
'This game is really full of blood pressure, and the switch of that sense of space is too crazy (scared)'
'9.8 is still quite pertinent, worthy of the box lady (open coke)'
‘……’
One review after another, all from real feedback from players.
Take a look at the comments section and look at the reviews.
Take a look at the comments section, and then look at the reviews.
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but let out a question from the depths of her soul-
Yes?
No weapons, short passes, minimaps, multiplayer......
Isn't this special meow the big pit I listed one by one!!
This moment!
Thoughts explode!
Where did I come from and where did I die? Why am I in this world? Did the world choose me or did I choose the world? Is there an end to the universe? Is there a length of time? Where does the past time disappear? Where does time stop in the future?
Who killed me?
And who did I kill?!
Long!
Scroll to the end of the assessment page.
Look at the seven big words of [New Flagship of Horror Games] at the end of the evaluation!
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but let out a desperate cry in her heart!
Damn it!
Be...... I killed me?!
O iniquity!
Shen Miaomiao gritted her teeth, as if she had eaten a bite of the nine-turn large intestine that retained its original flavor.
But!
In addition to being annoyed, Shen Miaomiao also decided to learn from the pain!
No way!
We can't stop losing money so aimlessly!
She has to find the root cause of the failure of losing money and strive to avoid it in the next work!
Otherwise, just thinking about it like this, doing it and doing it, a hammer in the east and a bar in the west, the loss may have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the month of the horse!
Loss! Have a plan, too!
Come to think of this.
Shen Miaomiao took the pen and began to record and analyze on the paper-
First of all! It's the type of play!
From Leo the cat to who's daddy, and then from vampire survivor to phobia.
These games are either abstract in gameplay, or unpopular in genres, and they are the tracks that seem to be must-fight under their own 'carefully selected'!
But!
It is precisely because of the unpopularity of these games that they are difficult to match in the market!
And this situation is very scary!
Because once such a game becomes popular, it is easy to form a monopoly on the market!
Shen Miaomiao, who is a high-level student in financial engineering, understands the horror of monopoly too well.
Any industry, whether it is watches, jewelry or breakfast restaurants, even if it is picking up rags, once there is a monopoly on the market, the benefits brought are astronomical!
Well!
Shen Miaomiao nodded.
It seems that my previous thoughts are really dangerous enough.
The next work is going to change a bit, and try to do the opposite, specifically looking for popular game genres to do, guns and cars and balls and the like.
That type is highly competitive, it is difficult for them to get ahead, and the probability of overturning is greater!
Whew-
Shen Miaomiao wrote it down in a small notebook.
Secondly! It's the attitude of publicity!
Before, I had always been too conservative and resisted publicity.
But it is precisely because of this that Yiyou frequently makes mistakes, and she is blind and makes up for it, and gives her a crotch to publicize it!
Damn it!
As soon as she mentioned this, Shen Miaomiao was angry!
What's more, once you don't announce that you don't have money, and twice you say you don't have money, and then what?
Ten times, eight times, thirty and fifty times, and never declare it?
Although Gu Sheng is just a smart person with no experience in the industry from the perspective of his resume, Shen Miaomiao always feels that this is a little wrong, and it smells like an old fritter in the game circle.
After a long time, it's hard to guarantee that he can't see some cats.
So!
In the next game, let's look for publicity, which not only seems normal, but also tells Yan Sheng this terrifying whale openly: Don't keep attacking yourself!!
Whew-
Shen Miaomiao once again wrote down her thoughts in a small notebook.
Third! It's game investment!
There's not much to say about that.
The higher the investment, the slower the cost recovery, which is simple and easy to understand.
She only hated Comrade Shen for refusing to sponsor her son.
Otherwise, she would have to invest Shen's capital in it!
At that time, the system rebate will be astronomical at all times, and it may even directly affect international monetary relations!
"Alas......"
However, this matter is only in the mind, Shen Miaomiao sighed.
It's better to be pragmatic and start from small aspects.
To be down-to-earth, step by step, open mind, forge ahead, and achieve an orderly loss of money!
Come to think of this!
Shen Miaomiao threw the pen aside and looked at her small notebook with satisfaction-
"Hmm...... Type of fire...... Gun Car Ball ...... Increasing the difficulty of competition......"
"Hmm...... Proper publicity and distribution...... Showmanship...... Reduce the chance of accidents......"
"After that, invest more money!"
Perfect!
Shen Miaomiao slapped her face!
Since I succeeded in stealing chickens and dogs before, this time, let me be beaten openly!
Thinking about it, Shen Miaomiao's mood also brightened, and she snapped her fingers - pop!
"System! What is your comeback bonus card? Take it out and I'll take a look! ”
【Ding! The "Comeback" achievement reward has been retrieved for you: Super Guarantee]
[Note: After use, the rebate rate of the next investment will be increased to (extractable) times]
[Note: The extraction multiplier will not be lower than the inherent rebate multiplier, the upper limit is 100 times]
See here!
Shen Miaomiao's eyes couldn't help but light up!
Good stuff!
Before, the time was reduced, but this time the rebate multiplier was increased!
"Extract!"
With Shen Miaomiao's crisp drink, I saw that the magnification rotated, and finally froze on the golden 100 words!
"Wuhu!"
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but cheer and jumped up directly from the chair!
"Hit! Hit! Hit! ”
"A hundredfold! Jackpot! ”
"This time, I'm really going to make a comeback, hahahaha......"
