The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 123 Total defeat!

As Xu Meng finished speaking, the preview live broadcast of "Frost and Snow Plan" officially came to an end.

But the impact of this foresight is far from over.

It can even be said that it has just begun.

Countless netizens were still not satisfied and were eager to share their feelings at the moment.

But the live broadcast room had gone dark and Qing Ling was not singing.

Chatting in front of a pitch-black screen was indeed a bit boring. After a while, everyone changed their positions and went to the game group to continue chatting with Meng Jin.

As a large number of viewers left, the atmosphere of barrage quickly deteriorated:
"This is a rubbish game, vulgar and obscene! It objectifies women!"

"It's so boring. I can't play it anymore without finishing the main storyline."

"The big world is just a bunch of shit. When are you going to learn from others?"

"Double card pool! You must be crazy about money!"

"My phone almost exploded after playing for just ten minutes. What a rubbish optimization!"

……

The dark screen was filled with negative reviews.

What’s even more outrageous is that these negative reviews are highly repetitive!

For almost every type of negative review, there are at least a dozen people posting it at the same time, and they are tirelessly flooding the screen over and over again.

Such highly repetitive and uniform negative reviews stunned the viewers who were still in the live broadcast room.

Then react quickly:
"This is...a robot?"

"No, the preview is over, but the robot is still working?"

"It will only stop when the live broadcast room is closed, right?"

"6"

……

In a live broadcast room that is too popular, in order to ensure smooth live broadcast and viewing experience, the live broadcast room will not display all barrages indiscriminately, but will filter and divert the barrages to different channels.

Therefore, these previous negative reviews were covered up by the normal comments from netizens.

It was not until now, after the audience had dispersed in large numbers and the normal barrage of comments had dropped sharply, that they were displayed in a concentrated manner.

The second-level players are knowledgeable and immediately saw through these negative review robots.

After that, I not only ignored it, but also took screenshots and recorded the screen, and posted them on pilipli and Mengjinli to share this fun with everyone.

The Mengjin "Frost and Snow Plan" section has already been in a carnival.

Pages of new posts, all about this preview discussion:
[Brother who won the Saint's Skirt Table Lamp, look here! I'll buy it for a high price!]
[“Frost and Snow Project” is coming to consoles, we can beat up the little foreigners in the future!]
[Qing Ling sings, 3 minutes and 21 seconds pure enjoyment version! ]
[What technology did Xu Meng use in the end? ? It’s too awesome! ]
[GameShow is in Germany, right? Are there any of you there?]
[It’s so funny. The players of “Bird of God” are still saying that it was not their fault that Konjac lost this time]
[Losing is shameful. Not being able to afford to lose is even more shameful! You deserve to be criticized for being autistic]
[Konjac really can’t stand losing, the online army never stops!]
……

The last title is about the exposure of the water army robot.

In the replies to this post, everyone agrees that:
"It must be the navy hired by the Divine Bird!"

In the Konjac Game Company, the "Divine Bird" project team was so angry that they wanted to vomit blood.

They are of course unhappy with their competitor Project Frost.

But they are engaged in a heat war!

Spamming the other party with barrages will also increase the popularity, doesn't that help the enemy?

They didn't do this at all!

When Lu Ming, the chief planner of "The Divine Bird", saw the news, he immediately thought of his boss Fei Zhiyuan and his henchman Gong Feng.

So I felt even more unhappy.

Because of this tit-for-tat preview battle, "The Divine Bird" was defeated!
There are no conspiracies, no unconventional moves, and no sneak attacks that cost a lot of money...

"Project Frost and Snow" defeated "Divine Bird" fairly and squarely.

This dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the entire project team.

In front of Lu Ming, the entire office was plunged into a low pressure. The most active employees in the past were now sitting blankly in their office chairs, silently refreshing the Mengjin website.

——Yes, I am brushing Mengjin.

Konjac Game’s own social app is managed by a dedicated person, and all you see are nice messages with just a swipe.

It is difficult for the project team to understand sufficiently authentic player opinions.

It’s the same even if you go to the operations department, because bad opinions will be deleted quickly. There is no discussion, no interaction, and naturally there is a lack of objectivity.

But Mengjin is different.

Dream building doesn’t care about you at all.

In this way, when players want to say something nice, they will do it in their own game community, and when they want to spit mud, they will run to Mengjin where no one cares.

As a result, Mengjin became a gathering place for black mud from various mobile games.

Many development teams hate DreamCraft with a vengeance.

But if I want to hear real feedback from players, I have to hold my nose and come here to read the posts every day.

Lu Ming walked over and took a look at the post he was reading.

["Bird of God" vs. "Frost and Snow Project", a complete defeat from popularity to content! ]

His footsteps suddenly stopped where he was.

My resentment towards my boss and Gong Feng deepened.

I even had a very impolite idea -

"With these insects..."

……

In the chairman’s office, Fei Zhiyuan, the biggest insect in the Konjac Game, had a livid face.

The same title was displayed on the screen in front of him:
["Bird of God" vs. "Frost and Snow Project", a complete defeat from popularity to content! ]

But not in Mengjin, but in Weiguang.

This "forward-looking war" that has attracted much attention in the gaming circle has finally come to an end.

Final heat comparison——

"Frost and Snow Project": 2011 million "Bird of Prey": 350 million

A huge gap of 5.7 times, an undoubted defeat!

In fact, when the preview just started, the popularity gap between the two sides was not that big - both were around 900 million.

In other words, at least the two are at a similar starting line.

But their differences are:

For Zhumeng, 900 million views is just the beginning.

But for Konjac Games, 900 million views is both the beginning and the peak.

Why did "Bird of Prey" reach its peak right from the start, while "Frost and Snow Project" was able to create miracles again and again until it finally reached the 2000 million mark?

the reason is simple:
"The Divine Bird" lacks innovation. Players get a little freshness at the beginning, but then it becomes a repetitive experience.

As for the freshness of the beginning, apart from the breakthrough in scale of the new characters - this is still following the trend of building dreams, the other contents are also quite standard.

It is not much different from every previous preview.

But the outlook for "Project Frost" can continuously bring out new things, satisfying and even exceeding players' expectations time and time again.

New content, new characters, new gameplay, cloud gaming, console login...

There are also incredible new technologies that can only be unveiled at the Cologne Gamescom.

So much content is gathered in one preview, bringing endless surprises to players.

With such a comparison, how can konjac be unbeaten? !
And this is different from being surpassed on the mobile game sales list.

——Everyone knows that due to the characteristics of the cyclical update of the second-hand game, the turnover is highly concentrated, and a one-month or even two-month turnover lag does not mean a real lag.

A good character or an excellent version update may make the game overtake others in terms of revenue.

But this time it's different.

This time it is not a transcendence in terms of water flow, but a comprehensive transcendence in [creativity], [content], [technology] and [future]!
From then on, "Bird of Divine" completely fell behind "Frost and Snow Project"!
Even if there are short-term changes in the positions of the two on the sales charts in the future, it will not be able to change this matter.

Starting today, the target of "Frost and Snow Project" is no longer "Divine Bird".

The only target left in front of it is "God's Abyss".

I wonder if you, who are used to playing the four-dimensional game on the top of the mountain, feel the chill? —
"Peng!!"

Fei Zhiyuan slammed his fist on the desk, making a loud noise.

Outside the office, the employees who were working were startled and subconsciously turned their heads to look towards the boss's office.

But the next moment they realized something, and they all looked away and pretended they heard nothing.

Fei Zhiyuan realized his mistake, unclenched his fists and placed his hands flat on the table.

But when he looked up and saw this manuscript, he subconsciously exerted force on his hands, almost digging his five fingers into the solid wooden table!
What made him most angry about this article was:
To be able to publish it so quickly, the person who wrote the article was obviously reading the preview while writing it simultaneously!
He was basically writing the article with a conclusion in mind!
Not neutral or objective at all!
It was just a failure in the popularity contest, how could it be so exaggerated? !

Fei Zhiyuan was very angry.

But there is nothing to do.

——[Game Observation] He doesn’t have much money, but he has a wide network of contacts and a bad temper.

There is almost no precedent of paying money to withdraw a paper, and it is also difficult to bribe them to sing praises for you.

There is only one way to get them to write articles praising you - your game is really fun, or what you do is really awesome.

So Fei Zhiyuan didn’t quite understand:

Why is [Game Observation] so... flattering to Dream Building?
He shook his head to get rid of the doubt.

Now there are more important things to deal with -

We have to find a way to mitigate the impact of this defeat.

They had previously reaped the benefits of traffic dividends brought by the "Forward-looking War", but now they have to endure a huge backlash from public opinion after their failure.

Now all the players are laughing at them!
The die-hard fans of "The Divine Bird" are outnumbered and are almost becoming autistic due to the ridicule.

How can we turn the situation around, or even take advantage of this heat?

After thinking for a while, Fei Zhiyuan called Gong Feng.

"Get ready and announce the first closed beta test of Mirror World Stories as soon as possible."

"Don't waste this heat."

"I understand." Gong Feng came quickly, left the office quickly, and started to take action.

The news quickly spread to the "Divine Bird" project team.

Lu Ming smashed his mouse on the spot.
-
The headquarters of Four Dimension Games, the office of Hu Jun, the operations director of "Abyss of the Gods".

In front of him was Huo Dao's manuscript.

As he watched, his fingers tapped on the table.

He is a little irritable.

In this great battle between Konjac and Dream Building, Four-Dimensional Games was sitting on the defensive and just watching the excitement leisurely.

But now, seeing that the preview popularity of "Frost and Snow Project" has finally exceeded 2000 million, it is close to half of the peak of "Abyss of the Gods".

He also had to face up to the threat to his dream.

After all, "Abyss of the Gods" has passed its peak and the market has been almost fully explored.

But "Project Frost and Snow" has just gotten started and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

Especially in overseas markets, with the help of Softote Game Box as a springboard, they will be able to expand and grow rapidly!
There is also cloud gaming and the last mysterious technology of "entering the game world"...

The threat has increased!

In Fireblade's words, he did "feel the chill."

He picked up the phone and called his assistant:
"Arrange my trip to Gamescom next month."

He had to take a close look at the mysterious new technology before he could decide how to deal with this new challenger.

　Asking for a monthly ticket!
