Biquge www.xbiquge.tw, the fastest update to restart the game era!

Moya Technology Headquarters.

Lin Xiaoguang laughed so hard that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear.

Happy!

Seeing these comments, especially the comments from IGP, almost wiped away all the haze of the past two months. The MGC2 handheld finally sees the hope of coming out!

Zhang Xiaoguang is now urging his subordinates to give him the latest sales data every day. Seeing this data, he is very happy!

Of course, "Zodiac Guardian" is not the kind of game that can explode in sales, because this game takes into account both gameplay and artistry, and it is not a game that completely entertains players.

Whether it is the plot of the game or the content experience in the middle and late stages of the game, it is actually a bit torturous. However, at the end of this kind of torture, there will be an emotional release, which makes the player's heart full of emotion, and he can empathize with Xinglan's behavior.

But in the final analysis, the goal of this game is not simply to make players happy, so sales will definitely be affected.

But with a high rating, that's enough!

Now the MGC2 handheld platform lacks a masterpiece with a super high score. Of course, the sales are also lacking. As far as the sales of handhelds are concerned, at most, they can barely say that they are a niche entertainment device, but in the long run, what is even more lacking is masterpieces with super high ratings!

Because high-rated works are a benchmark for the platform, when other players ask, what games can you play on this handheld? You replied, "Endless Tower" and "Dark Dawn", people don't want to buy it all at once. But if you answered "Zodiac Guardian" with an IGP score of 9.6? This force went up in an instant.

What's more, what Zhang Xiaoguang signed with Weiguang Studio was a VAM agreement, and how much sales would be paid. Although sales were important to him, they were far from the most important.

The assistant knocked on the door and came in, and he said hesitantly: "Boss Lin, JA over there rejected our second revision proposal..."

"Rejected again???" Lin Xiaoguang was taken aback.

Regarding the first version of "Dark Dawn" before, JA rejected it without saying a word. The attitude is very firm and will not be changed!

At that time, "Guardian of the Zodiac" hadn't been launched yet, so Lin Xiaoguang asked his subordinates to submit revisions for the second edition. This time, the revisions were not as complicated as the first edition, but only provided some minor details for optimization. , As a result, JA rejected it again!

Lin Xiaoguang was upset for a moment, but he quickly adjusted and waved his hand: "Forget it, if you don't change it, don't change it, I will withdraw all the recommendations of "Dark Dawn" and replace it with "Zodiac Guardian". Don’t you want to change it? That’s fine, don’t ask for a recommendation, and I’ll remove all the advertisements!”

The assistant was stunned for a moment: "Uh, Mr. Lin, isn't this not very good..."

Lin Xiaoguang thought for a while: "Yes, then just leave one of the most rubbish recommendations for it. Go, go and withdraw."

"Yes." The assistant withdrew.

Lin Xiaoguang felt himself stiffen instantly.

Before, I could only push "Dark Dawn" desperately. It was a general among dwarfs.

"Dark Dawn" and "Endless Tower" have basically monopolized some of the main publicity positions and resources, and there is no way, because these two games are the most popular on the entire platform. Although "Dark Dawn" has many problems, who else can push it?

Now, with "Guardian of the Zodiac", it's different. All kinds of resources are going to be crazily tilted here. It just so happens that Moa Technology and JAGames are at odds again, so needless to say, withdraw the promotional resources. Anyway, the exclusive time of "Dark Dawn" on the MGC2 handheld is almost up, and the value of continuing to push it is not great.

"Thanks to "Zodiac Guardian" for saving lives." Lin Xiaoguang said with emotion from the bottom of his heart.

Without this game, one can imagine how aggrieved I am now!

But now everything is different, with the "Zodiac Guardian" escorting the MGC2 handheld in the past three months, maybe this handheld can really be brought back to life!

...

On the side of Shimmer Studios, there was also joy.

Because the evaluation on the Internet is too high, everyone is inevitably a little bit flustered.

Fu Xing'an said with emotion: "I really didn't expect the players' ratings to be so high, even the IGP's ratings are so high, what a surprise!"

Jia Jia nodded: "That's right, the IGP's ratings for Huaxia games have not been very good before. It seems that a score of 7 or more is considered a high score. I didn't expect to give us a score of 9.6!"

Zhong Ming smiled: "What's the matter, isn't this a matter of course? The previous Chinese games were too deliberately imitating Western games. On the surface, martial arts cultivating immortals, but the actual gameplay is sword and magic. It's strange that Westerners like it. "Guardian of the Zodiac" shows an exotic style, and Westerners still like it very much."

"Hey, I don't know how the sales data of the cassette is now. I see that the handheld is sold out on many shopping websites!" Jiang Wanna said.

During this period of time, the sales of MGC2 handhelds have indeed ushered in a wave of skyrocketing, and many shopping websites are out of stock.

Because... Moya Technology didn't produce that many handhelds in the first place, and suddenly there was a wave of buying, and it was normal for them to be out of stock.

The previous number of reservations was only 60,000 people, and Moya didn't dare to spread too much even if it was a distribution. If the backlog was overwhelmed, wouldn't it be a full loss? After the official release, the three games did not cause any waves, so Moa Technology did not plan to replenish too much in the future.

Right now, Lin Xiaoguang is definitely scratching his head and urging everyone to hurry up with mass production, but it will definitely take some time from the urging until the stock is available.

Zhong Ming is confident about the sales of the game.

With IGP's super high score of 9.6 points here, the sales of "Guardian of the Zodiac" will definitely not be low. Even if the sales volume of the handheld platform cannot grow explosively in the first three months, as long as the ban is lifted after three months and the game is installed on the PC, a large number of PC players will definitely buy it.

Players in the Huaxia region still prefer games with similar themes.

Just like the explosion of "Taiwu Painted Scroll" before, players in the Huaxia region have been playing Western games, and their expectations for Chinese-style games can only be described as urgency. "Guardian of the Zodiac" can be regarded as a game that has gained word of mouth and fame all over the world, and players in China will definitely support it.

In any case, this step is the right one, which suddenly gave Weiguang Studio a certain influence all over the world, and its reputation in China was even more stable.

Relatively speaking, this time it is a mutual achievement with Moya Technology. Zhong Ming used a masterpiece to help their handhelds stabilize sales and reputation. On the other hand, Zhong Ming also needs Moya Technology to bring "Zodiac Guardian" to Go up to a higher height.

If you are negotiating an agreement with some other platforms, it is definitely impossible to talk about the current favorable conditions, and Moya Technology is really hardworking in the announcement and promotion of the game. Effect.

Therefore, this time can be said to be a win-win situation, and the result far exceeded the original expectations of both parties.

...

night.

Zhong Ming came home from get off work and opened the bracelet.

The mysterious program above has reached more than 3600 points, enough for two 30 consecutive draws!

The two games developed by Zhong Ming, "Taiwu Painted Scroll" are all copied, with only a small amount of optimization; while "Zodiac Guardian" is partially modified, and the degree of originality is not high.

So, while both games have had a lot of buzz and sales far outpaced their predecessors, the points earned haven't exploded.

Of course, more than 3600 points is already very much. In the past, Zhong Ming got two or three hundred points, but now it has increased by ten times.

Say nothing, let's draw a prize!

After two 30 consecutive draws and brilliant special effects flashed, various reward icons began to appear on the screen quickly, and then scrolled down row by row.

Then, the repeated icons are stacked to become an item overview.

Universal retriever: 10.

Building fruits: 12.

Music fruit: 15 pieces.

Psychological fruit: 10.

Physical fruit: 10.

Strong Tranquilizer: 2.

Short travel capsule: 1 pc.

"Huh? There are quite a lot of new props."

Zhong Ming looked at the descriptions of several new props.

The building fruit and the psychological fruit are two new fruits, but they didn't say what skills to improve.

Looking at these more than 40 fruits, Zhong Ming felt a little worried. It would take him a week to eat them all.

Easy to learn new skills!

[Potent sedative potion: After use, it will make your mind clear, your thinking quick, and greatly weaken your sense of fear, which lasts for 24 hours. 】

[Short time travel capsule: After taking it, it allows you to travel to a dream for a short time, and the dream comes from your imagination when you are awake. 】

"These new props are getting more and more evil."

Zhong Ming complained a few words, first save everything that should be saved, things like the universal retriever, powerful sedatives, and short-term travel capsules are not very useful for the time being, so put them in the bracelet first, and then save them when you need them. Just take it.

Those fruits couldn't be eaten all at once, so Zhong Ming took out a construction fruit first.

This fruit looks quite strange, square and square, with many square holes on it, it looks like a miniature building. After peeling the skin, I took a bite and felt that the taste was not too different from that of dragon fruit.

After eating the fruits of architecture, Zhong Ming felt a lot of architectural knowledge pouring into his mind instantly.

"It's still useful. In the future, to make some complex scenes of large-scale games, you will definitely need to use architectural knowledge."

In addition to the fruits of construction, the fruits of physical fitness are also urgently needed by Zhong Ming.

After eating a physical fruit last time, Zhong Ming felt that his body had improved significantly, he was much more energetic, and his body's various functions had also improved.

I don't know if I can eat another ten physical fruits this time, can I get some muscles?

...

The next day, Zhong Ming received a call, which was an invitation for an interview from Xingyou.com.

Xingyou.com was also shocked by the high rating of "Guardian of the Zodiac", so the website hopes to arrange an interview for Zhong Ming and the entire Weiguang Studio, and report that this company has developed several classics in less than a year. Fantastic studio for games.

Yes, in terms of the achievements of Shimmer Studios, it is already worthy of the word "magical". The first 3D game scored 9.6 points in IGP and 9.5 points in Xingyou.com. Crushing a lot of Western masterpieces is already something that no one can ignore.

Zhong Ming accepted this interview. After all, Xingyou.com, as an influential Chinese website in Huaxia District, has always been known for its strict and high-level game evaluation. Such an interview is actually very beneficial to enhance the reputation of Weiguang Studio.

After the reputation has been spread, the right to speak will naturally be more important when discussing cooperation with other companies in the future.

Zhong Ming made an appointment with the reporter from Xingyou.com to conduct an exclusive interview in the morning of the day after tomorrow.

After making an appointment, Zhong Ming stood up and announced the news to everyone.

"At 9 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow, people from Xingyou.com will come over to do an exclusive interview with our studio. Everyone remember to dress formally that day, don't just come here wearing slippers like usual."

It is now approaching May, the weather here has gradually warmed up, and the shoes worn by many programs have also changed from sports shoes to sandals or slippers.

Of course, Zhong Ming didn't have any special requirements on this. The atmosphere of game companies is relatively relaxed, unlike investment banks or those who work in finance who have to wear suits and shoes to and from work. Otherwise, as soon as this photo is taken out, it will make people think that Shimmer Studio is just a small workshop, and it is not formal in all aspects, which is not good.

Hearing this news, everyone was in high spirits.

"Startravel.com? They want to interview us??"

"Wow, are we going to catch fire!"

"Are you going to ask questions?"

"Boss, why didn't you say earlier, is it still too late to place an order for new clothes?"

Zhong Ming was very speechless to this group of actors: "You don't need to be so concerned, the studio is mainly to take a few photos, and maybe interview a few random people, mainly to interview me..."

When they heard about the interview, everyone was visibly excited.

Playing games is actually a boring job most of the time.

Of course, most fun things become boring once they become work, not just games.

Therefore, when it is usually more interesting, it is when the game is finished and you try it out, or you see other players' praise. This is the time when you are happier.

These exclusive interviews with Xingyou.com made everyone feel that Weiguang Studio is booming and becoming more and more famous. Of course, it is something to be very happy about.

...

At noon, Lin Xiaoguang called Zhong Ming.

"Mr. Zhong, do you have time to have a meal together recently? I'm also very busy recently, otherwise I should have this celebration banquet on the day when the IGP scores come out!"

Zhong Ming was happy: "Boss Lin, don't you rush to seize the production capacity and solve the out-of-stock issue of the handheld, and you are still in the mood to eat?"

"Hey, I'm urging, I didn't expect it to become so popular!" Lin Xiaoguang's tone was obviously still a little troubled, but it was the trouble of happiness.

"Food, don't be in a hurry to eat. Mr. Lin, you can prepare the sole agent fee. The sales of "Guardian of the Zodiac" will definitely not be bad. Don't worry about it." Zhong Ming joked.

Lin Xiaoguang laughed: "It hurts? That's not possible. What is Mr. Zhong going to do for the next game? Can I make a friendly price first and make a reservation first? Our handheld users are still looking forward to you every day." There's a new game coming out."

"Reservation? That's impossible. You also know that Weiguang Studio is now a world-renowned and world-renowned boutique studio. Haha, just kidding, the new game has not been written off, and we will talk about it later. Maybe this time it will be released directly. It’s on the PC side, let’s talk about it later.”

Zhong Ming exchanged greetings with Lin Xiaoguang and congratulated each other a few times.

Zhong Ming couldn't help but feel that although he asked for a high price this time, he really didn't have the ability to get the profit from the hardware.

Although Moya Technology has made a lot of profits, it has also benefited a lot from this cooperation.

The current financial resources of Weiguang Studio are not enough. It is a bit of a dream to make hardware by yourself, but there is no need to worry about it. In terms of the current development speed, it will happen sooner or later.
