Chapter 362: A movie that came out of nowhere
The entire qualifying knockout round lasted for four hours before it finally ended successfully and decided the final top 60.
In the meantime.
The contestants can be described as a group of demons dancing, each showing their own magical powers, and there are all kinds of routines, and the audience is fascinated.
Even after the game ended, they were all talking about it, and all kinds of recorded videos began to appear on the Internet.
It is estimated that it will be waited until early tomorrow morning.
The entire network will be detonated in an instant, and there will be related topics everywhere.
As for the contestants, they are teleported back into the Pokémon game to study various new lineups.
And at this time.
Hualan City Square above.
"Ahhh Why! ”
"It's only a little bit close to the top 64!"
Ouyang Xiao, who had just teleported back, looked unwilling and stomped his feet frantically.
Xiaoqian and the three of them also looked regretful, and they all lost before the top 64.
It's not that they're too weak, it's that their opponents are too strong.
After all, this competition covers the whole country, and there are all kinds of evil characters, and their little tricks are still not enough to watch.
"It's good to make it to the fifth round."
"I thought the anchor was going to be brushed off in the first round."
"It's really cool tonight, looking forward to tomorrow's repechage."
"Many people haven't received the news today, and tomorrow it is estimated that it will be more lively."
"It's still two hours before dawn, do you want to stop farming some rare pets?"
"No, I'm sleepy, go to sleep."
The barrage in the live broadcast room floated by, and many people were still discussing the game just now.
Those who don't have virtual devices are running to catch up on sleep, planning to come up tomorrow night to continue watching the game.
An esports event like never before.
This is also the end of the curtain for the time being.
……
Time passes.
Soon it was morning.
When the sun rises and illuminates the whole land.
A piece of heavy news detonated the entire game circle.
"100 million! The number of people online at the same time in the world has reached 100 million!? ”
The senior management of a group of manufacturers widened their eyes and looked at the viewing data sent by the flood in disbelief.
The major game media were in an uproar, scrambling to report on this incident.
The Honghuang Virtual Games was a great success, with 100 million simultaneous online news, which also swept through major forums and websites at home and abroad like a hurricane.
"100 million! It reached 100 million! ”
Su Peng, who had just arrived at the headquarters of Station B to work, was shocked to look at the data handed by his subordinates, and thought he was dazzled.
But immediately, he became excited.
With the report in hand, he went straight to the conference room.
Not to mention other companies that have also invested in advertising sponsorship, they are already cheering at this time, and their mouths are crooked with laughter.
Originally, at the beginning, they thought that it was very good to have a few million millions.
Unexpectedly, the flood famine gave them such a big surprise, and directly broke through the 100 million mark!
It's worth investing tens of millions of publicity and distribution costs!
"Director, just now there was a message from the marketing department, and today's order volume is nearly thirty percent more than usual!"
At this time, an employee came running from outside, full of excitement.
"Sancheng??"
The director got up from his seat, and the senior executives below were also happy.
This is just the beginning, the order volume has risen by 30%, and it will be later?
Rao is that they have seen strong winds and waves, and they have never seen such a terrifying publicity effect, which is much better than those stars, and the results are immediate!
"Good! Good! Immediately let the production side grasp the cooperation and increase the production capacity! ”
The director said two good words in a row.
He has always been calm and calm, but he can't suppress the excitement in his heart at the moment.
Thirty percent of the order is enough to bring many sunset companies back to life.
They......
It's still too underestimating the power of the flood.
And not even just them.
Even virtual competitors such as Soni Rentiandi underestimated the power of online events and were shocked to hold an emergency meeting early in the morning.
After intense discussions, they came to a unanimous conclusion.
That is to increase the realism to 50% as soon as possible and build your own online event platform!
However.
It didn't take long for them to make their decision.
Another message appeared below the Honghuang account.
【Honghuang (official): From now on, the Honghuang virtual sports venue will be open to the public, accepting various e-sports venues for rental and customization, and charging according to large, medium and small scales. 】
Rumble!
As soon as this news came out, the game circle exploded again.
In particular, those manufacturers and e-sports clubs that often hold competitions are agitated because of this news.
As early as when Honghuang announced the virtual e-sports project, they guessed that there would be such a day.
It's just that I don't know the effect, so I keep a wait-and-see attitude.
But now.
After seeing the horrors of virtual esports, they couldn't sit still.
immediately sent someone to make an appointment to go to the Honghuang headquarters, and also prepared to hold an online event by himself to take advantage of this popularity.
Arguably.
The current flood famine.
It has completely grasped the initiative of the virtual industry.
In addition to the accumulation of original capital, it is far ahead of other platforms in every aspect.
……
"It's okay, at least in our hands."
Chen Lin sat in front of the computer, browsing the data on it.
Although they invested a lot of money for this project, they successfully blocked the impact of capital and did not appear too big.
"Those guys are really ruthless, the equipment is basically sold at a loss, and these millions of units go down, I don't know how much they have lost."
Lao Li held the tea in both hands and said with emotion.
"The profit-seeking of capital is nothing more."
Lao Song on the side shook his head: "Every emerging industry starts with a price war to quickly seize the market, and only after most of the opponents are eliminated and basically stabilized will they start cutting leeks." ”
"I know that!"
Lao Li's eyes lit up: "Just like takeaway and live broadcast platforms, at the beginning, all kinds of preferential treatment were good, attracting a large number of riders and anchors to settle in, and after the competitors died, they began to squeeze desperately, and then they changed places and came again!" ”
In the past few years, Lao Li has participated in the high-level decision-making of the studio, and Lao Li has learned something, although not much, but he understands the principle of capital operation.
Or rather.
Now him.
In fact, it is already a member of the capital.
"Yes, there is progress."
Chen Lin looked up at him with a mocking look on his face.
"The competition in the early stage is indeed like this, so the ones who will win later are basically those large factories with strong funds, they can't keep this kind of loss all the time, since they can't move us, they will definitely turn to annex those small factories to expand their strength."
"One more point." Lao Song interjected, "In order to increase the attractiveness of the platform, they should secretly contact those big game manufacturers and get the exclusive monopoly of those big game resources, so that other platforms are equivalent to one less big work." ”
Plainly.
Or the very beginning of the competition for the quantity and quality of the game.
For example, the strength of the world's top 50 enterprises.
If you are willing to spend a lot of money, you may even buy out a game company's games directly, so that that the company's games will not be listed on other platforms.
This kind of competition is common between platforms.
But it also costs a lot of money.
"So what do we do next?" Lao Li hurriedly asked.
If those well-known masterpieces are monopolized by other platforms, won't they have to eat ashes?
This platform competition is indeed much more dangerous than the competition between enterprises.
"Don't worry, we're not going to worry about it."
Chen Lin smiled, he had long expected this situation.
"We have been preparing for so long in advance, and the number of users on the platform is more than that of other platforms combined, unless they give too much, otherwise those manufacturers will still give priority to the Honghuang platform."
After this virtual sports meeting, the total sales of their equipment have rushed to 900 million.
Just like the supremacy of steam on the PC side, game manufacturers will basically choose the platform with the largest number of users, or multi-platform interoperability.
"It's better to pay a little attention."
Lao Song took over and said: "Those platforms have been very diligent in running game manufacturers recently, and there may be new moves. ”
"Yes."
Chen Lin nodded: "Let's pay attention to their actions for the time being, and by the way, send someone to find out the tone of those manufacturers, if there are any new games coming out recently, it is better to prepare in advance." ”
"I'll arrange it later."
Some blockbuster triple-A masterpieces are still very attractive to players.
If the giant hard Suoni talks about exclusivity with all his heart, it will indeed bring them a lot of trouble, and it is good to understand it as soon as possible.
So quickly.
The discussion between the three of them was over.
Lao Song and Lao Li got up and left to go about their own business.
……
Compared to the calm inside the flood.
The virtual sports venue is much more lively.
Every night.
Players gathered to watch the Pokémon Regional Tournament.
And the number of people is becoming more and more exaggerated day by day, and the atmosphere is becoming more and more hot day by day.
In the final finals, it reached a terrifying 140 million, setting an unprecedented simultaneous online record!
And the long-awaited battle for the championship.
It also came to a successful conclusion in the earth-shattering cheers of hundreds of millions of spectators.
"Cool! Didn't wait so long in vain! ”
"The final semi-finals and finals were really exciting!"
"Especially that counter-kill, it makes my blood boil!"
"It's so fast, I wish there were more games like this."
"yes, that's how the evening pastime will be."
When leaving, the audience was full of unfinished content, still discussing the battle situation just now, and was full of praise for the new gameplay of Honghuang.
It's been a long time since they've been so cathartic and happy with so many people.
This unique experience has made many people fall in love with it and look forward to the next competition.
All over the web.
This topic has been discussed for a long time.
once pushed the flood famine to the hot search.
Even those who don't play games have heard about it, and they are even more shocked by the grandeur of the game footage.
Until half a month later.
This topic was finally covered by a movie that came out of nowhere.
It is a movie called "Mechanical Rover", led by the internationally renowned director William Gilson, with the participation of more than a dozen film and television companies, to create a futuristic sci-fi masterpiece.
As soon as the film was released, it caused an uproar around the world and received great attention from all walks of life.
Because it's not an ordinary science fiction movie.
It is a social structure based on the background of human future mechanical civilization, built on the basis of "the combination of low-end life and high-tech technology", with advanced science and technology, but to a certain extent.
In particular, the various lights in the movie, the iconic advertisements on the streets, the high-rise buildings made of steel, and even the chaotic order of the living environment.
The kind of varied, but very contradictory visual impact effect instantly attracted countless fans among movie fans from all over the world.
even won various film and television awards in a row.
The limelight directly overshadowed all the movies.
And this new movie style also reminded netizens of a very unpopular sci-fi theme, cyberpunk!
Yes.
In just a few days.
In the entire film and television and even game circles, a cyber trend has been set off, and related discussion topics can be seen everywhere.
This has also made many film and television and game companies find business opportunities and hold emergency meetings one after another, preparing to move on to this suddenly popular theme.
And the flood as a game studio.
Nature is no exception!
