Started as a comics editor

Chapter 101 This game shouldn’t make money, right?
The largest anime-related forum in the country does not really seem to be used to discuss animation and comics at the moment.

...Because it's all about the game FGO.

no way.

This is really what the core users of the two-dimensional world like!
That art style! That plot! Those character portraits! And the emotional value the game provides them!
The readers who were skeptical at first were instantly hooked after entering the game.

Then starting from noon, the forum was in chaos.

As for why the administrator doesn't care.

Because he also played games...

The people who founded and managed this forum are all veteran 2D fans.

The reason why Su Deqiang was able to see that post that struck a chord with him was because it was posted by the forum founder and it was pinned to the top...

Since the forum founder took the lead in posting game-related posts, other players naturally had nothing to worry about.

This made the entire forum, for a moment, look like the official forum of FGO.

Everyone seemed to be discussing this game.

This also shows from the side how popular the game is in the two-dimensional circle...how terrifying it is!
[…Amazing!! This game! Whether it’s a sequel to the observation storyline or the main storyline!]

"A mobile game can do this kind of performance! It's truly amazing! Did you see the observation lines? The animated illustrations! And the animations for the release of the Noble Phantasm! ?"

[It's hard to believe, a game with no PvP, just monster hunting, yet I spent 3,000 yuan... and I'm quite happy with it.]

[I'm addicted to card drawing... I got my favorite character after twenty draws. Look at the [picture], hehe.]

[Do you know what happened to the darkened Saber in the game's prologue? The burning Fuyuki City plot seems to be related to the Fifth Holy War!?]

Did you know? Leveling up changes your character's character! This game company is so mean!!! They hid such beautiful characters! [Image]]

[Is this actually possible with mobile games? I'm shocked!]

The character development is fantastic! The storyline is also very interesting! I'm not talking about FSN, but the game's storyline. If you've seen it, you'll know. It goes back in time and revolves around famous historical figures. The excellent art and the brilliant plot descriptions are really a fan...

[Image] This is my wife! Look!]

【…】

This is really a chaotic scene, because some people are talking about the art, some are talking about the plot, some are talking about the observation line, some are talking about the game's plot, and some are talking about the card drawing...

What’s even more terrifying is that although the topics are all over the place and all kinds of things are said, there are at least dozens and at most hundreds of replies under each post.

As long as you post, there will be no dull moments.

The players' enthusiasm for discussion is very, very high.

And there are countless people who call their wives "husbands"...

The 2D users here love this game specially designed for them to an extent that even exceeds Tang Yao’s imagination!

And gradually... the game actually has a tendency to spread outward.

Of course, it’s only the first day of public beta testing, so it hasn’t spread so quickly yet, and its popularity is still limited to the two-dimensional circle.

This is what is commonly known as enclosure and self-growth.

But based on the current horror popularity...it's really hard to say what will happen in the future!

……

A venture capital fund.

Manager's Office.

Li Xue's cousin, Lin Shuang, finished a day's work, stretched her body a little, then picked up her mobile phone and checked the time.

When she saw the date, she suddenly thought of something, swiped the screen... and found a game icon.

She also knew about the FGO public beta, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

Mainly because of Li Xue.

Lin Shuang is a very strong-willed person, but also a bit fragile.

After that phone call with Li Xue... every time he thought of Li Xue's words, 'Do I need to ask you how I spend my money?', he felt uncomfortable. He was obviously kind-hearted and was doing this for her own good, but she actually said such a thing?
What do you do? What do I do?

You're a rubbish comics editor, why are you arguing with me, a venture capital fund manager? Do you understand me?

In short.

Lin Shuang was very unhappy.

So she has been thinking about this matter all the time... just waiting for the game to be publicly tested so that she can slap the bloody truth in her cousin's face.

soon.

The game starts.

Lin Shuang registered an account and entered the game.

But she hadn't played for half an hour when she realized that the game was all about the story of FSN, and she had never read the comics, let alone the two-dimensional world, which had nothing to do with her... What's more, she played the game with prejudice.

So she didn't even wait until she could return to the main storyline of the game. She frowned, turned off the game, and dropped her phone.

"Besides art, there's nothing else to do."

"I've been playing for half an hour... and I don't even know what I'm talking about. What kind of game is this? Isn't it just a visual novel?"

"Don't ask me how to spend your own money, you are so self-righteous!"

"Can you make money from this game? Wait till you regret it!"

……

“Some players have reported that in some cases, performing the ‘Team Formation’ operation will cause disconnection.”

"I'm handling it here!"

"..."

night.

Half past ten.

The lights in the Avalon studio are still bright, and all the staff are still working overtime.

But no one complained, instead they were all very excited.

Because at noon... the number of FGO users online at the same time exceeded two million!
Two million!

Not to mention Kang Ming, even the staff from Mingyu Technology didn't expect this mobile game to have so many players!
This is much scarier than the download volume!!!
After all, this is the number of people online! They are all players playing this game! ! !

However, the influx of so many players also brought some problems.

It turns out that games always have bugs.

Starting from noon, various small problems began to emerge one after another... The technical team of the studio was busy as a top, investigating and fixing the problems everywhere.

It can be said that it is painful and happy.

Tang Yao couldn't help with this either. After all, she really didn't understand it. The only thing she could do was to accompany them and pay attention to the players' feedback.

Fortunately, they were just minor issues, and most of them could be hot-fixed. Plus, it was late at night... the shouting from the technical team finally stopped.

"Tang Yao..."

Tang Yao sat in her seat, looking at the feedback from players on the forum.

Kang Ming's voice suddenly rang out.

She suddenly came back to her senses, slightly raised her snow-white chin, and looked at Kang Ming, who was haggard but still excited: "How is the situation?" "Most of the bugs have been solved, and those that have not been solved are also being repaired."

"...You've worked hard, get ready to leave."

"As long as there are no serious bugs that affect all players..."

Kang Ming shook his head, replied, and rubbed his hands: "Let's talk about it after work later. How is the situation now? What is the feedback from the players? I didn't have time to pay attention to it just now."

"……very good."

Tang Yao's fair face revealed a smile as she said, "Very good! Let's take a look at the data from the server launch day."

"it is good."

Kang Ming's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately turned and walked towards his workstation.

"..."

Tang Yao watched Kang Ming leave, took a deep breath, and her expression was relatively calm, but under the table, her small hands resting on her round thighs nervously clenched her trouser legs.

It's finally here.

Sure enough, I'm still nervous...

Since the server was opened at noon, I checked the number of people online at the same time.

Next, Kang Ming led the technical team to fix bugs everywhere and had no time at all.

Since they were so busy, the other staff members certainly didn't dare to disturb them, including Tang Yao.

This means that the peak number of simultaneous online users is currently unknown.

The same is true for other data.

the other side.

The other busy staff members were actually listening attentively.

After hearing the conversation between Tang Yao and Kang Ming, they all stopped what they were doing.

They still remembered the dazzling results from the last test.

What about this time?

They have some expectations.

On the other side, Kang Ming had an excited look on his face. He negotiated with Sun Gong excitedly, then sat in front of the computer and opened the operation background.

In fact, the number of people online at the same time... he is not worried.

Because there were two million players online at the same time at noon, which was beyond his expectations.

What he is more worried about is income.

In the end, because of the extremely high payment rate during the closed beta period...Tang Yao did not change the revenue model and retained the existing model.

Kang Ming did not object.

However, there were only 2000 people involved in the test, and those selected were all players who had filled in the form that they would pay for the game.

As the excitement of testing the 100% payment rate passed.

Kang Ming became a little worried again.

How many players will be willing to pay when the server is officially launched?

Kang Ming was really unsure.

There are nearly three million players, and there are two card pools in total for this launch.

On the first day... at least three million in turnover, right? Five million if we're lucky?

While thinking about it, Kang Ming took a deep breath and clicked on the operation background... The peak number of people online at the same time was 3.41 million.

See this data.

Kang Ming was ecstatic!!
This is much higher than expected! More than three million!

Kang Ming thought as he looked down... at the players' recharge data since the server was launched.

And when he looked clearly at the numbers counted by the operations background.

Kang Ming... was stunned.

"..."

Kang Ming stared at the computer screen blankly, motionless.

The expressions of the other staff members who were watching him changed.

Is the data bad?
"What are you doing? Why are you so stupid? The data is bad?"

Next to Kang Ming, Sun Gong, who had been paying attention to him, saw his expression and became anxious. He immediately leaned over to look at his screen.

Then--

When he saw the data on the screen clearly, his eyes widened suddenly, he took a breath, and was stunned.

"???"

How about it? Tell me!

far away.

Seeing the two of them like this, Tang Yao clenched her trouser legs even harder, wanting to punch them...

But just when Tang Yao was about to get up.

Sun Gong came back to his senses. He raised his hand, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and counted softly: "Tens, hundreds, thousands, millions..."

After counting.

He still couldn't believe it and counted it again...

When he finished counting for the third time and found that he was indeed correct, he suddenly shouted almost screaming:
"Holy crap!!! 9400 million!!?"

"The first day hasn't even finished yet, and the game's revenue is already... 9400 million!!!?"

"First day! Nearly 100 million in turnover!!!"

"Is the player crazy!!!?"

"..."

Clang.

Kang Ming was motionless and still in a downtime state.

On the contrary, one staff member fell off his chair when he heard this number.

Damn it?

No?

ah? ? ? ? ?
Everyone turned their heads suddenly and looked at Tang Yao, who was sitting gracefully with her back straight... Their expressions were stunned, as if they were looking at a god.

Although all staff had a vague idea that the game would be very profitable after the test data came out, but to have a turnover of nearly 100 million on the first day of the server launch was still... too scary!!!

One hundred million!

A million-level game generated nearly 100 million in revenue on the first day?
