"Horror themes?"

Inside the Flood Wilderness Studio.

Chen Lin looked at the message sent by the penguin with a strange expression.

This morning.

They also had a meeting to say this.

As a result, it was not good for Penguin to choose what game to be exclusive, but he chose such a theme, which is really ......

"It's kind of interesting."

Lao Li on the side laughed: "Their market research is new, right?" ”

Even Lao Song, who has always been calm, smiled: "This is really something I didn't expect, I originally wanted to say how to deal with it, but now it seems that I don't need it for the time being." ”

"What about the others? Any news? Chen Lin asked.

"Yes."

Lao Song nodded: "In addition to the domestic penguins and giant engines, Suoni, Rentiandi, Juhard, EA, EP, UB, Kemei, and Steam have all released similar news, and they are already working on paving the way, as for the specific extent, I don't know yet." ”

"So much?" Lao Li was surprised.

He thought there were only three or four of them at most.

I didn't expect so many to pop up at once.

"Not strange."

Chen Lin said slowly: "Just like the previous e-commerce, at the beginning, hundreds of schools of thought contended, and finally it was slowly annexed to only a few left, which is an inevitable trend." ”

The market is that big.

If you want to survive, it means that another opponent is going to die.

Unless, like Ju Hard opened up the host market at the beginning, it used money to smash a gap.

But not everyone has such courage and strength.

"We also have to pay attention to it, and now there are a lot of comments on the Internet that our equipment is too expensive, and Penguin's promotion slogan is to put an end to high premiums, obviously wanting to fight a price war with us." Lao Song said seriously.

"Say we're expensive? Really open your mouth to come, they have the ability to make 70% realism of the equipment! "Lao Li is angry.

Although he doesn't go to the R&D department much, he knows the approximate cost of a virtual device, which is definitely not only 5,000.

The penguins themselves are competing in a vicious way to lower prices and want to drag them into the water, which is really a good calculation.

Sure enough, it is the most customary method of old capital.

"Leave them alone." Chen Lin interjected, "Anyway, it's not us who are losing money, I want to see how much money they are willing to spend." ”

They are so far ahead that they will not be affected by this tactic.

In today's flood famine, we only need to stabilize our position and deal with the upcoming industry impact.

……

Penguin Group.

Gaming Division.

Compared with the low-key development of the flood wilderness, the penguin's ambition is obviously much greater.

In just one day.

Advertising is everywhere.

Even overseas has poured a lot of money down.

"Mobilize all the resources for me, and I must put the promotion to every corner by the end of the month!"

"This is a big opportunity for us to develop overseas markets, and we must not be sloppy!"

A shout echoed through the department.

As long as you have an understanding of the Internet industry, you know that the pain point of Penguin is that its overseas influence is too weak.

Penguins, which are thriving in China, basically encounter a nose of ash every time they want to expand overseas markets, or fail to adapt to the water and soil.

This is also the reason why they have been hovering in the back of the top 500.

Now that I see the great success of Honghuang in the overseas market, I am naturally so red-eyed that I want to do the same, and take this opportunity to break the spell in one fell swoop!

"Director, there's a guy who calls himself Representative Soni and says he wants to see you."

At this time, a front desk employee hurried in from a distance.

"Soni?"

The director's eyes narrowed, and then his face suddenly appeared: "Okay, take him to the lounge, and I'll go over immediately." ”

After saying that, after explaining some things, he turned around and hurried away.

In the afternoon of the same day.

Soni officially made a public statement.

It will cooperate with Penguin to become a virtual terminal agent of Neon Country, and share technology to develop higher fidelity devices together.

As soon as this news came out.

The whole network was in an uproar again.

You must know that Suo Ni was once on the host side, and he could keep up with Ren Tiandi.

And in some ways, it is not inferior to Ren Tiandi at all.

For example, the influence among neon and sticks in the developed countries of the game, Ren Tiandi has been competing with Suo Ni for so long, but he has not been able to get much benefit.

If there is any help from him.

The promotion of Penguin virtual equipment in these two places can be said to be a flat horse, a big cut ahead of other companies.

"It seems that Penguin is determined to win the virtual end."

"After all, this is a good opportunity to open up overseas markets."

"Suo Ni is not simple, it is estimated that he wants to speed up the technological breakthrough through this method and return to the list of the three royal families."

"Bet on it, bet on it, guess which three will be the last three families."

"I'll crush the flood, 1 piece!"

"Laugh to death, why don't you just stud."

The manufacturers are playing hot, and the players are talking about it.

The virtual topic, which had stabilized, once again rushed to the hot search and set off a wave of discussion.

And in the midst of this lively scene.

The release date of the Penguin Virtual Device has finally arrived.

Many players who have been waiting for a long time go to buy equipment as soon as possible, a heavy helmet with a penguin logo.

"Wow, it's big!"

"It's much bigger than the equipment in the wilderness."

Inside a university building.

Several roommates gathered in a circle, looking at the penguin virtual helmet they had just bought, looking a little surprised.

Because I am used to seeing the equipment of the wilderness.

So when you look at the penguin equipment again, you can see the difference at a glance, it is indeed a big circle, and there is obviously a certain technical gap.

"Forget it, let's give it a try, after all, it only cost 5,000 yuan."

5,000 bucks.

The price difference is twofold.

What more bikes.

Especially students like them who don't have much spare money can save money.

After speaking.

He connected to the internet cable and lay down on his bed.

Other roommates who are still thinking about getting it are connected to the computer and look at the feedback on the screen.

I'm going to see the effect before deciding whether to buy it or not.

"It's coming! Log in! ”

Suddenly, the screen lit up.

In the originally dim picture, an avatar of a little penguin appeared, looking curiously left and right.

【Wegeam】

A huge platform logo shines on the page, and at the bottom is the 150 new games mentioned earlier.

There is also a horror-themed exclusive masterpiece on the first page, "Death Horror", a bloody palm lying on the window, which looks a little oozing.

"How's the three guns? How does it feel? ”

The roommates hurriedly spoke up and asked through the built-in voice.

"This ...... How so? It's kind of weird. ”

The guy known as the Three Guns fluttered his little penguin image and felt it carefully.

Then he said: "There is a feeling of half-dreaming and half-waking, which is not very real, and it is difficult to concentrate. ”

"Can't concentrate?"

"It seems that the fidelity is too low."

"I'll just say I should buy the flood famine."

"Try the game first, if it's just like this, it's barely acceptable, and it's a big deal to get a new device at half price when the time comes."

The three guns didn't answer, and they gritted their teeth and bought "Death Horror" for 150 and opened it directly.

The next second.

He was found inside an abandoned sanatorium.

The personal image also becomes a character in the game, a thin patient lying in a hospital bed.

The surrounding area was full of fog, and I couldn't see things in the distance clearly, but I could hear a thin chewing sound, which was very penetrating.

Sancang got up from the bed, leaned on the hanging bottle rack, and walked towards the door with a nervous expression, and the whining wind sounded in his ears from time to time.

This real performance made several people's eyes shine.

Seems okay?

However.

As soon as their thought flashed, something changed.

The third cannon opened the door of the ward, and a terrifying face with only half of it left suddenly came up and opened wide.

"Ahhh!!h

Screams echo inside and outside the game.

Sancang's face turned pale with fright, and even the picture fed back from the computer became blurry for a while, as if he had been greatly impacted.

Suddenly.

The three guns lying on the bed opened their eyes.

He sat up from the bed, panting violently, dazed, stunned, and with a hint of fear.

"I'm ...... Forced disconnection? ”

"Shhh My head hurts! ”

As he spoke, he gasped and sat on the bed with his head covered.

"Are you alright?"

Several roommates hurriedly gathered around.

"It's fine."

Sanpao raised his hand: "It feels like I had a very real nightmare, and then I was suddenly woken up, and my head couldn't slow down for a while." ”

Sleeping dreams are almost as realistic as 5-10%.

When people wake up, a large part of them will be forgotten.

10%-20%, they begin to tend to be half-asleep and half-awake, wandering between dreams and reality, subjective consciousness can not distinguish between true and false, and can still remember clearly after waking up.

Obviously, 20% of the realism is not enough to fully visualize the "dream", showing an unstable state that will wake up at any time.

Just now, the three guns were startled, and they woke up from their sleep as if they had been woken up from a nightmare.

After the head was relieved.

A strong feeling of exhaustion followed, as if I had just been forcibly woken up from sleep, and my eyes were bloodshot.

"Damn, if this is worn by someone who gets up very angry, won't he have to scold people every time he goes offline?"

"20% fidelity is still a little too low."

"In such a comparison, I suddenly feel that the flood is so awesome, and it can already replace ordinary sleep."

"Do you still buy Penguin Virtual?"

"Buy a fart! Let's wait for the realism to get higher. ”

They don't want to get up every time they go offline, and it seems that 20% realism is half-asleep at best, and it is not stable at all.

To say the least, it has to reach more than 30%.

A few people who felt cheated immediately scolded and threw the equipment aside.

Meanwhile.

Other players who have purchased Penguin Virtual have encountered a similar situation.

In particular, those players who have played horror games are almost all scared and forced to wake up, feeling a strong discomfort in their bodies.

In an instant, news reviews and angry scolding about Penguin fiction surged wildly, and the entire gaming circle exploded.

"What's that? Forced me offline? ”

"The realism of 20% is too low and not stable at all!"

"When I went offline, I was so uncomfortable that my head was buzzing."

"It's okay to play a simple game, but once it involves a little more complicated and has a big mood swing, you will wake up instantly."

"Sure enough, it's cheap and not good!"

"Don't buy it! Whoever buys it is stupid to beep! ”

There is no harm without contrast.

If it is said.

Penguin was the first to launch a virtual appliance.

Don't say 20%.

I'm afraid 15% of them have a lot of people willing to try.

But now the jewel is in front.

After playing and seeing the virtual equipment of the wilderness, and then touching the penguin's equipment, it is simply impossible to do anything except the price.

He did not pay a premium.

But it's cheap and lonely!

Time.

Many players who were still hesitating and tangled finally knew that Honghuang was good, and they placed orders to buy Honghuang Virtual, which gave Chen Lin a wave of sales.

In desperation.

The Penguin side can only make an urgent public relations and explain that this is the first generation of the product.

They are working on a new generation of devices with higher fidelity and will join the half-price trade-in campaign at that time.

This calmed the anger of the players a little.

With this experience.

Manufacturers who originally wanted to release devices by the end of the year have changed their plans and postponed the launch time to next year, preparing to increase the fidelity to more than 30% first.

And at this very moment.

Another bombshell news came out of nowhere.

E3, an international game event, will join the virtual game exhibition project next year, inviting major game manufacturers from all over the world to participate.

In an instant, everyone's eyes were drawn to the past, and they fell into a sensation.

"E3, is it finally coming?"

Chen Lin looked at the news spread on the Internet and was slightly surprised.

As the largest game exhibition in the world, E3 is equivalent to the Olympics of the game industry, and countless well-known manufacturers participate every year.

It was a bit unexpected for such a grand event to join the virtual game exhibition so quickly.

When the time comes, those manufacturers who develop their own equipment will definitely seize this opportunity to participate in the exhibition and hype their games.

Other words.

This E3 exhibition.

is the ultimate battlefield of the virtual side!
