Chapter 873 Let the bullets fly for a while
“How are sales?”
The next morning, Pu Tong took the initiative to call Gu Ning to find out about the first round of sales of "Plants vs. Zombies".
The game was released at midnight last night. It was late at night in the Eastern Hemisphere, so there probably wouldn't be many people browsing for new games. The reason he asked this question was because he wanted to know about the game's situation in the West.
"It's pretty average."
Gu Ning's words were very tactful. Because their company was relatively unknown, this game received very little attention. Even when it was on the homepage, no players would immediately click on it.
In addition, given their selling price of US$100, not many foreign friends are willing to give them a chance, and their current sales have just exceeded .
In other words, after seven or eight hours a night, this game only earned a little over a thousand yuan, and after deducting the platform's handling fee, it was less than four figures.
This sales volume is not even enough to pay for a single picture of the game artist...
In a sense, they have failed. On overseas platforms, no one will pay attention to a domestic game with no publicity.
Perhaps the platform will give it a homepage recommendation because of Pu Tong’s face, but players cannot see the list of main creators, and they don’t know what the relationship is between this mini-game and Pu Tong.
"Boss, don't be sad. It's daytime now. We can guarantee our sales in China!"
In China, Kepu has a certain fan base. As long as they have the domestic market as a foundation, they will definitely not lose money.
Pu Tong didn't say anything. From Gu Ning's tone, it seemed that he had already given up on the overseas market...
"Why should I be sad? Let the bullets fly for a while."
No one understands the potential of this game better than him. This game has not been discovered by everyone yet, so the sales will naturally not be very good. Once the game attracts everyone's attention, it is only a matter of time before it becomes popular.
"Well, boss, I've discussed it with other people in the company. Should we try to lower the price?"
As it stands, it seems that their game cannot be sold at a price of two US dollars. Now that it has been released in overseas markets, they cannot just ignore it.
If it really doesn't work, then lower the price!
"Lower the price?" Pu Tong frowned. "No, not even a cent."
He understood Gu Ning and the others' current concerns, but if he lowered the price at this critical juncture, he would be heartbroken.
This game is definitely worth the price, not only because it is fun, but also because while the game is being sold, it also opens up a creative workshop for players.
The reason why there are so many imaginative versions of "Plants vs. Zombies" is that this game is open to all players. As long as they have enough technical skills, they can make changes and re-create according to their own ideas.
What they sell is not just the game, but a creative platform. The imagination of the players will determine what new versions of the game can be created!
"OK then."
Gu Ning was not surprised to hear this. Based on her understanding of Pu Tong, he would indeed make such a choice. It was not just because he was confident, but also because he had always had the ability to create miracles.
No one wants to lower the price, but after listening to Pu Tong's words, she inexplicably developed a strong sense of self-confidence.
This time, can they follow the boss's rhythm and create another miracle?
Pu Tong was just about to give a few more instructions when Gu Ning on the other end of the phone was suddenly interrupted by a busy tone, as if there was some new work arrangement.
"It's okay, go and do your work."
After Pu Tong hung up the phone, the people in the company's gaming department must have started to panic, but his boss was still as steady as an old dog.
If this game doesn't become popular, he will eat it on the spot!
"But isn't this natural development a bit too slow?"
Pu Tong frowned. Even good wine needs no bush. It would not be a good thing for him to let the game be discovered. Otherwise, he should promote it. As a boss, he still has to contribute... However, this time the market is looking at the international market, and he seems to have no external account so far.
Just when he was about to register an external account to promote the game, Gu Ning called again, and he was so excited that he was a little incoherent.
"Boss, boss, we're famous!"
"Oh."
Pu Tong had expected this, but he didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
Gu Ning was stunned when she heard that. She was worthy of being a small boss. She could remain calm in the face of such a sudden change. Her cousin was much more mature than her.
"That's right, the sales of our game suddenly increased dozens of times in the past hour, and has successfully exceeded 5,000!"
More than 4,000 units were sold in just one hour. Perhaps the number is not huge, but the increase is a bit too outrageous.
"what reason?"
It is not surprising that "Plants vs. Zombies" is so popular in Putong. What he wants to know is what exactly caused this to happen so much earlier.
"I heard that a gaming anchor on the Internet happened to broadcast live, and the show was very good..."
Pu Tong was delighted when he heard this. This game is undoubtedly very suitable for live streaming, and this anchor is the first to try it out.
"I can't believe this is true. The data is still rising. At this rate of increase, we will surpass the Cultural and Entertainment Department in a few weeks!"
"Look at your potential!"
We are brothers, why do we still compare with each other?
Pu Tong sighed unhappily. He knew that the game department would definitely not accept this. He didn't expect that they were waiting here.
"What's the anchor's name? Let me go check it out!"
"It seems to be called something like Mai, and it's still on air."
It is inconvenient to use domestic software and platforms abroad, but opening the external network is completely professional. It didn’t take Pu Tong long to register his own account, and he is still the classic "ordinary user".
This nickname uses a Chinese pun, so foreign websites will definitely not recognize him.
He searched and found the game anchor named Mai. At this time, more than 100,000 people had gathered in his live broadcast room.
Pu Tong's English is pretty good. He can understand what the host says and most of the comments. They are discussing this game right now.
"I can't figure it out. I've been very detailed, so how come my house was still robbed?"
The host rubbed his messy hair, looking a little haggard, as if he was stuck at a level.
Pu Tong was not surprised by this. After all, everyone in this world was playing this game for the first time and had no ready-made experience or skills. How could they not be defeated?
The barrage was divided into two camps, one side was telling the host how to play the game, while the other side followed the host and complained that the game was inhumane.
"I want to see where this game comes from!"
Mai held up his glasses. He had to know what kind of company was so abstract and had done so much harm to others!
He clicked on the encyclopedia and decisively entered the company information of Kepu Entertainment. What caught his eye was none other than a face familiar to everyone.
The boss behind Kepu Company - Pu Tong.
"Fuck!"
