The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 171 You can scold as you like, I will climb to the top of mine
Dear players and friends:
Hello everyone!
I am honored to announce a good news to you:

"Frost and Snow Project" was launched on the Softote game box, and the number of downloads exceeded 24 million within 1400 hours, and it also topped the game box's weekly download list and weekly sales list.

Such outstanding results are inseparable from the support of the majority of players.

With gratitude, we would like to give 10 liquid gold to all players of Project Frost as a thank you.

At the same time, we will also draw 100 lucky players and give them the game prop: [Ring of Eternity].

(Note: The winning player must have at least one character with full favorability, otherwise he will lose the qualification to win the prize)

——《Frost and Snow Project》Project Team
June 2025, 9"

The "Frost and Snow Project" project team released an announcement on the afternoon of the second day, announcing the results of landing on the host platform.

Number one on both lists!

Seeing this record, everyone was shocked both inside and outside the Internet.

But before they could digest this shock, Dream Building released a second announcement -

Dear players and friends:

We are pleased to announce another good news:

So far, the first batch of 150 million copies of the Fantasy Game Kit, which consists of [body sensing synchronization suit/tactile gloves], [VR glasses] and [omnidirectional treadmill/motion capture matrix], have been sold out.

So far, more than 100 million units have been successfully activated, and the rest are on the way to delivery.

[Lakeside Cabin], [Yoga Studio] and [Sprawling City] welcome more than one million new residents!

To thank everyone for their support, we will randomly select 100 lucky players and give each of them a set of Fantasy Game Kit.

(This lucky draw is only open to players who have registered a Dream Building game account before today.)
This rule will continue, and for every 100 million sets of Fantasy Game Kits activated, 100 sets will be given away.

Finally, we understand the strong demand for more equipment, and the latest batch of equipment is already in production.

The Dream Mall will open the second round of product pre-orders. Players with needs are welcome to place orders in advance to lock in the products.

After production is completed, DreamZhu will arrange the delivery work as soon as possible according to the scheduled order and deliver the equipment to the players as quickly as possible.

Thank you again for your support and optimism. "

As soon as this announcement came out, many people jumped to the Dream Mall without even having time to respond.

When I opened the page for the somatosensory suit and tactile gloves, I saw that the pre-order button, which had been gray for several days, was lit up again.

Then everyone's eyes lit up!
Over the past two days, I have been watching others being affectionate with their virtual wives and playing cards in the hail of bullets in World War II. I can only envy them and feel anxious.

What’s more important is: among these millions of users, there are almost no negative reviews.

The few complaints are that you can’t play games for long periods of time. If you play for more than two hours, you have to take off the VR glasses and rest for a while.

If you wear it for more than 4 hours, the tight-fitting somatosensory synchronized suit will make you feel stuffy and you will need to take it off to rest.

They all hope that DreamBuild can make it lighter and further improve the gaming experience.

This reputation has completely dispelled everyone's doubts about the product, and there is no need to worry that this is a marketing scam.

and so--

Buy and buy!
Players who couldn't wait rushed to place orders.

The good news is:

This time you don’t have to worry about not being able to make a reservation.

Because there is no upper limit for Dream Building this time, all players who want to make a reservation will be welcomed.

But the bad news is:
This time, Dream Building has no stock and will sell as much as the factory produces.

The delivery cycle will be significantly slower than the first batch.

And the later you order, the later the delivery time will be!

In the first hour, the players who had successfully made their reservations were very happy and rushed to the announcement just released by Dream Building to share their joy.

But after an hour, the newly pre-ordered players looked at the queue numbers and expected delivery time, and they couldn't laugh at all -

"It was just one hour late, and you threw it into October?"

"Wardfa! One million people made reservations in one hour?? Is this crazy?!"

"That's great. When we can use motion sensing to play Dragon Palace Treasure Hunt, we won't have to worry about not being able to match with anyone."

"Boss Xu, don't you want to consider selling a green channel? The kind that charges extra money to cut in line?"

"It's only an hour. If we make a reservation tomorrow, we will have to wait until next year..."

……

Bookings are booming!
Seeing this situation, Zhang Yang immediately took action and prepared to add a few more production lines.

——I didn’t add it before, I was stopped by Xu Meng.

Xu Meng is a game developer. Even though he works on hardware, he has a strong thinking inertia.

That is: test first, then put it on the market.

Even though the somatosensory synchronization suit had been tested within the company, in the military, and at the Cologne Expo, Xu Meng was still not reassured.

In his eyes, the first of these three rounds of testing was an "internal test," the second was a "special sample test," and the third was a "small-scale, limited-time test."

Neither is universal enough.

He was always worried that if these things fell into the hands of ordinary players, something unexpected would go wrong.

At that time, we will have to recall the equipment and adjust the assembly line.

This is also one of the reasons why he did not open up overseas IP purchases in the first round - recalls were too troublesome.

Of course, this is only a secondary reason.

The main purpose is to supply the first batch of equipment to old players.

Now that we have carried out large-scale testing at the million-level without any problems, there is no need to worry anymore and we can just expand production directly.

Zhang Yang went to work with great interest.

After this vote with Xu Meng, the way the group's top management looked at him changed significantly.

His prestige in Yuanyang Group has greatly increased.

Dad's attitude also changed from being disappointed in him to being relieved, and he no longer said that it was a waste of time for him to sell his house to start a game company.

——Now what my father said has become "having vision and good at investing."
-
Unlike Zhang Yang's smugness, other colleagues in the industry were stunned.

Especially colleagues in the game development company, they were all stunned.

——Because it’s too fast!
Everyone is still thinking about how to deal with the crazy attacks by extremist organizations at home and abroad at the same time and how to overcome the difficulties.

As a result, DreamZhu immediately released two announcements - dual-end transaction volume reached the top, and the hardware sold out on the same day!
As for being scolded, I'm too lazy to even mention it.

It seems like he doesn't take it to heart at all!

Konjac game, in the chairman’s office.

Fei Zhiyuan looked at the Dream Building announcement and the mobile game sales charts, and lit a cigarette nervously.

Kong Yaohui was sitting opposite him, a little puzzled by his surprise and irritability:

"Boss, didn't you predict long ago that Dream Building would surpass "The Abyss of the Gods"? "

A week ago, when Kong Yaohui returned from the Cologne Games Show, he went straight to this office and reported to Fei Zhiyuan everything he had seen and heard in Cologne.

The new technology of Dream Building and the somatosensory interaction that are so realistic that they are indistinguishable from real ones have attracted players from all over the world, and companies at home and abroad have come forward to seek cooperation...

All were reported in detail.

After listening to this, Fei Zhiyuan made a judgment on the spot:

As long as there is no force majeure, it is highly likely that the dream of surpassing "Abyss of the Gods" and becoming the new king of the second game will be realized.

but……

“In my opinion, Dream Building should surpass Divine Abyss step by step over several versions.”

"Instead of a fucking week!"

too fast!
It was so fast that he was caught off guard!

"Are the reports on those boxing organizations on the Internet effective?" he asked.

"No." Kong Yaohui shook his head.

As if thinking this was too light an understatement, he added: "There was absolutely no response, all reports fell on deaf ears."

"Damn it, these are a bunch of useless pieces of trash who are incapable of doing anything and always cause trouble!" Fei Zhiyuan was filled with anger.

"I can't even tell whether they really have a grudge against Dream Building or whether they are deliberately playing the opposite role to hype up Dream Building!"

Fei Zhiyuan couldn't help but swear.

It is well known - at least in the second game circle:

Black traffic is also traffic.

The overwhelming black traffic is still traffic.

Unless you can crush the other party and cause huge losses to them, any amount of traffic you get will just be a benefit to them.

What reasons do these extreme female boxers use to criticize "Frost and Snow Project"?
Vulgar, obscene, erotic...

Come on, are these reasons really attacks?
In the eyes of the target users of "Frost and Snow Project", this is simply a living advertisement!

It can be said that these extreme female boxing organizations have made great contributions to the fact that "Frost and Snow Project" has reached the top on both platforms!

Fei Zhiyuan's chest heaved and he finally suppressed his anger.

"In that case, we have to speed up!"

He asked his assistant to call Gong Feng over, and the first thing he said was:
"The time left for Mirror World Story is running out!"

"...Ah?" Gong Feng stood there in shock.

"Why?" he asked puzzledly.

He knew that the revenue of "Frost and Snow Project" had surpassed that of "God's Abyss" for two consecutive days, but Dream Building had just launched a new version and had new technology to support it, so it was not difficult to understand why the revenue exceeded that of "God's Abyss" in the short term.

No need to make such a fuss, right?

But Fei Zhiyuan sees further:

"The most troublesome thing is not the flow leading, but the reason why the flow is leading."

"If it's just to sell soft pornography and play large-scale roles, then it doesn't matter."

"Because we can imitate and surpass them. We can defeat them in the same way they defeated the four-dimensional game."

"But now, Dream Building relies on hardware technology to achieve transcendence, and we cannot learn from this successful path at all."

"Once DreamCraft has fully rolled out its hardware and reaches the same popularity as Sony's game stations and Softo Game Boxes, the development space for all other second-tier games will be greatly compressed, and no one will be able to challenge DreamCraft's position."

"If we still follow the original plan step by step, then Mirror World Story won't be able to eat the cake or achieve better results than Bird of Prey, and it may not even be able to eat the shit!"

Fei Zhiyuan's words were harsh, and Gong Feng subconsciously frowned and wanted to defend himself.

But before he could open his mouth, Fei Zhiyuan said:

"Or do you have a way to make something similar to the Dream Building Somatic Suit?"

After hearing this, Gong Feng was speechless.

He is a game planner and knows nothing about bioelectric pulse algorithms.

Instead of letting him do this, it would be better to let him grow sweet potatoes on the moon.

"So!" Fei Zhiyuan concluded, "We must speed up as much as possible and grab a big enough piece of cake before the Dream Building Hardware is fully rolled out!"

"We must be faster than Dream Building and bolder than Project Frost and Snow!"

"Faster?" Gong Feng was struck by lightning.

After the first test, he devoted himself completely to the development of Mirror World.

In his opinion, the whole team was already working at overload!

He found it hard to imagine how to go faster.

But the boss doesn't care -

"Prepare for the second test as soon as possible!" Fei Zhiyuan said without question, "I will talk to HR, you can hire more people, and I will give you enough budget."

"Then, in order to speed up the pace and recover funds sooner, the second test will be a paid test."

"It's still the old plan. All recharge amounts will be returned to the players' accounts after the server is launched."

Gong Feng frowned and looked unsightly.

But he had to nod and leave the office to inform his team members of the bad news.

According to the boss, the second round of paid testing will be started at the latest next month, or preferably this month.

The more Gong Feng thought about it, the more outrageous it seemed.

Finally, this "loyal lackey of the boss" couldn't help cursing out loud:
"Damn, stupid leader."

　Please give me monthly tickets, friends!
