Chapter 477: Money Printing Machine? Money printing plant!
#所以, what exactly is a black soul? #
[Perhaps it was the surprise when I first saw the Ash Inquisitor Gooda, or the shock of the Salary King being unable to move for five consecutive times, with the blessing of the Golden Engine's unique physical destruction engine and graphics, Black Souls is undoubtedly the top wolf game in the world today - Player Campfire (9.8/10)]
[Perhaps it is the unique plot narration of the Golden Wind, and the peak of the fragments to hide the narrative, the obscure and grand story is split into a gentle narrative between the lines, so that the plot can be excavated and the depth has reached an unprecedented height, although it is produced by the same studio as the wolf, but the grandeur of its world view and the richness of the side stories have far surpassed the wolf-SLGamers (9.9/10)]
[Maybe it's an encounter full of hope and regretful ending, life is never perfect, if you want to save the world, you must first save yourself, maybe this is the unique charm of the golden wind, when everyone tells you to become a useful person to the world, the golden wind is reminding you not to forget yourself, the real courage is to face life with an optimistic attitude - Daily Travel News (9.9/10)]
[Maybe it's the attitude of the Golden Wind towards the game, from Cat Leo to Black Soul, in four years, the progress of the Golden Wind is obvious to all, they are like the ashes chasing the flames, walking in this originally desolate game world, helping passers-by to complete their mission, and at the same time moving towards the throne of the king of the game, but unlike the Black Soul, the golden wind is now walking in the fireless deep sea era, and that little bit of light flame ignited is exactly what they are looking for-SNG(10/ 10)】
【……】
The overall average score of all media is 9.9!
Dual-platform player reviews are well received!
As the second "wolf" work after a wolf, it is also the beginning of a series of works.
"Dark Souls" not only continues the quality of the demo, but also shows a more majestic game world on this basis!
If the Ash Inquisitor Guda in the demo is enough to shock you, then when you step on the top of the ancient dragon to face the nameless king, the incomparable thunder and dragon battle in the wild will completely conquer you.
If the elite Bugatti Veyron in the demo is enough to make it difficult for you, when you meet the Ice Knight, the frostbite and elusiveness of the body will completely shatter your confidence.
A shock that is more shocking than the demo, a pain that is more painful than the demo.
More moving than the demo, more profound than the demo.
The grand backdrop is complemented by an obscure narrative.
Coupled with the difficult game settings that belong to the wolf genre, and the unparalleled sense of accomplishment brought by the player's skill improvement.
For a while, there were discussions about black souls, endlessly.
Some players are discussing missions.
After all, generally speaking, in the first sight experience, players can hardly complete all the side quests in the game, and the first sight casual game experience has caused many players to miss a lot of plots, and some people have not even reached the ancient dragon top.
Some players are discussing items.
Like a wolf, many of Dark Souls' things are hidden in strange horns, and it is not very difficult to collect them all at first sight, but the more this happens, the more it stimulates the player's collecting habits, so players share their experience of collecting items with each other, even if it is just a worthless skull.
Some players are discussing weapon bonuses.
Compared to a wolf, the weapon choices in Black Souls are diverse, players can choose to become a knight with both offense and defense, or choose to become a sledgehammer man, or choose to become a noble mage, or an acrobat who specializes in playing with small toys dropped by elites and bosses.
Of course, there are also plots that are discussed.
The plot parties who are extremely curious about the background story dig deep into the origin of the world after the fragmented narrative, the game between the various forces, the struggle between the fire transmission faction and the fire extinguishing faction, and even the origin and background of the NPC.
The multi-layered game design makes this game full of replayability, and also stimulates players' enthusiasm for game research.
And at this moment!
For this game, there is another person who is more enthusiastic than the players-
……
Huaguo.
The Wind of Gold.
Chairman's Office.
Shen Miaomiao sat on her boss's chair, her two slender thighs cocked, on the desk, her body was half-lying, with a lollipop in her mouth, looking like she was wandering.
On the computer in front of him, there is a background data statistics page of Huayu Television.
In the blink of an eye, the game has been on sale for four weeks.
If it was usual, at this critical juncture, Shen Miaomiao would definitely concentrate on staring at the screen, secretly burning incense and worshiping the Buddha and praying that the game sales data would not grow again.
But now.
She looked at ease, as if she was already winning.
You ask me why I'm suddenly so comfortable and not panicked at all?
Ha.
Because I don't need to panic!
After all, this investment, I will earn!
And right now!
Just listen to your phone ringing!
It's time!
The official version of Dark Souls is on sale for four weeks!
Not a minute is more, every minute is not less!
Project Settlement!
Bill Expand!
【Main Item: Dark Souls】
[Project investment amount: 2.02 billion dollars]
[Project settlement time: 28 days (+0 days)]
【Project Rebate Multiplier: 2 times (+0 times)】
[Note: According to the system regulations, if the host invests in the approved project through the host, the rebate rate will be reduced to 1/5]
[Current revenue amount: $648 million]
[Project loss: $1.372 billion]
[Project rebate amount: 2.744 billion dollars]
【Ding! Your debit card account 1118, received a deposit of $2744,000,000 in foreign exchange transfers, with a balance of ......】
Arrival !!
Wuhu!!!
Take off!
Shen Miaomiao directly and excitedly bit the lollipop in her mouth, waved her hands, and couldn't wait to raise her arms and shout!
Angry loss of 1.412 billion dollars! Blood earned a rebate of 2.744 billion dollars!
This old system is really exciting!
This can't be counted as picking up money anymore, this is simply printing money!
Money printing machine?
Money printing plant!
Wushuang is also a happy picture, and the real money printing has to be a system!
There are rebates, it's really in place!
The most important thing is that with the blessing of the surreal magic technology of the system, such a huge amount of even crazy income can ensure that all the sources are compliant and legal, and there will be no investigation and confusion because the source of huge assets is unknown!
In one month, 1.8 billion directly became 2.7 billion!
Cool ——!!!
Of course!
While shouting about the rebate and enjoying it, Shen Miaomiao was also deeply shocked by the appeal and influence of today's Lao Gu Games!
You know, the reason why the cost of this rebate bill is so much is because she acquired 23.22% of the equity of Phoenix Engine for 1.8 billion dollars.
This is the fundamental reason why she is not worried about the failure of the rebate at all, and she is waiting to collect the money.
And if you remove this part of the investment, the total cost is 2.02 billion minus 1.8 billion, and the total cost of "Dark Souls" is 220 million dollars.
On the whole, this investment is definitely not low.
Although it is slightly inferior to the 235 million knife cost of "Battlefield: Rise".
But don't forget, Battlefield is a co-developer of two studios, Golden Experience and Melancholy Blues.
The labor cost of the two studios is very high, after all, the overall salary of the three studios and the operation and maintenance department of Golden Wind has far exceeded the average salary level in the industry, and even higher than the highest salary level in Europe and the United States and other countries and regions.
In other words, if you look at the "cost of a single studio development work", this "Dark Souls" is the most expensive project they have developed so far.
The cost of 220 million knives, if you remove 25% of the platform rake.
Then in order to achieve a return on investment, the sales of the game need to reach a full 260 million dollars.
It seems like an insurmountable and horrific sale.
But actually......
The system has always been so kind to Lao Gu.
Shen Miaomiao secretly complained in her heart.
You meow Lao Gu for four whole weeks to sell, do you want to see what his results are?
648 million dollars!
It is priced at $60 per serving.
In just one month.
"Dark Souls" sold 10.8 million copies on the dual platforms of Yiyou and Polar Bear!
Sales exceeded 10 million in a single month!
What does this mean?
……
"This means that our joint industrial initiatives have achieved ...... initial results"
Meanwhile.
in the conference room.
Gu Sheng, who was sitting in the first place, opened his mouth and said:
"Dark Souls is our first title to be made with Combined Engine technology,"
"And its total sales of more than 10 million sets in a single month are enough to prove the correctness of our path,"
"The industry-integrated performance of the game engine has allowed us to achieve unprecedented progress and jaw-dropping speeds."
"This is the success of our joint industry initiative, and it is the most exciting milestone since we went from Harvest Day to Dark Souls."
Whoop -
As Gu Sheng's words fell.
The Golden Wind executives present applauded, and everyone's faces were full of joy and hope.
"Harvest Day" to "Dark Souls".
From this time period, it is not difficult to judge that what Gu Sheng is talking about is the development and achievements since the establishment of the "Golden Engine" project.
For the wind of gold, the establishment of the gold engine project is indeed a major turning point that can reverse their development path.
Even from a certain point of view, they have to thank Wei Wangdi, thank Yun Wei.
After all, if it weren't for Wei Wangdi's secret instructions and Yun Wei's obstruction, they would not have been "forced to fight back", thus creating the current situation.
In the midst of the applause, I saw Gu Sheng bowing slightly, and continued to speak:
"And this is also perfectly in line with our initial assumption and gives us full confidence,"
"So that we can continue our journey towards the Golden City......"
