Pokémon's Lord of Fear

Chapter 371 Prosperity
The explosive popularity of Ju-Jewel 2 was within Teng Shu's expectations. After all, the quality of Ju-Jewel 2 itself was very good, and it was normal to be recognized by the market. What's more, Ju-Jewel had laid such a solid foundation. So Teng Shu was not surprised at all that the box office of Ju-Jewel 2 directly broke billion on the first day. After all, Ju-Jewel itself was hailed as one of the most terrifying horror films in the world.

This ranking was collected by a movie website when it was collecting information. More than one million people voted on it, and the final result of the vote was that "The Grudge" won the title of the scariest horror film. Of course, Teng Shu himself humbly stated that "The Grudge" is only one of the scariest horror films.

In the past, there was no correct answer to the question of which movie was the scariest. After all, everyone has a different definition of horror.

However, in this world, among the current horror films, The Grudge can indeed be said to be the most frightening and thrilling. After all, the success of the Grudge itself in the previous life was obvious to all, so Teng Shu was very calm.

At this moment, Teng Shu was sitting on the grass in the Orange Forest, playing games with Gengar beside him.

"Geng Gui, it's your turn. Why haven't you played a card for such a long time?" Teng Shu asked helplessly while looking at Gengar in front of him. After hearing this, Gengar couldn't help scratching his head, and then looked at the card in his hand. There was a Q version of Gengar on it with a few lines of words on it.

[Overlord: When you are about to be attacked, you can summon all the Pokémon of the Hoenn region to help you dodge, which counts as your own dodge.]

[Greedy: Get a card that causes damage to you]

"No, why was I attacked by you, but no one helped me to dodge?" Gengar asked with some confusion. Teng Shu's mouth twitched, and then he looked around. Now there were only himself and Gengar, as well as Zoroark and the old butler Shibata sitting there.

"Because this is an overlord skill, it can only be used by an overlord. We are too few in number now, so we can only play a simple game of killing each other. I kill you, you kill Zoroark, Zoroark attacks the old butler, and the old butler attacks me. Do you understand?" Teng Shu said helplessly.

This thing was made by Teng Shu himself. It is actually the Pokémon world version of the Three Kingdoms card game. After all, although this ghost game had a lot of negative news in its previous life, the fact that it can continue to thrive does prove that this game has some ability to make money.

Teng Shu's goal is to open a charity hospital in every region, and he has no intention of using Devin's company's money. For this purpose, Teng Shu plans to make more money, and this card game is what Teng Shu plans to launch to test the waters.

"Then why are your skills so strong?" Gengar looked at Teng Shu with some suspicion. Teng Shu glanced at the card he had placed on the camping cloth. There was an Alakazam on it, and its faction was [Kanto], and its skills were predicting the future and being mysterious.

[Predict the future: At the beginning of each turn, you can check the X cards on the deck and decide the order of placement or put them at the bottom of the deck]

[Mysterious: When you have no cards in hand, you cannot be the target of attack or battle]

"Because I created this game, of course I know what to choose." Teng Shu said calmly. Geng Gui's face became even darker, and then he started to attack Teng Shu, which made Teng Shu feel a little amused. This bastard, when he got angry, he didn't care about any rules or regulations at all, he just knew how to kill randomly and have fun.

But Teng Shu didn't care. On the one hand, he came here to communicate with Gengar, and on the other hand, he wanted to see if there was a market for this card.

From the current perspective, it seems pretty good, but I don’t know what will happen after it is promoted. If possible, Teng Shu plans to promote this game directly on the Internet. After all, there are still many netizens in the Pokémon world, and it is more troublesome to promote it in reality.

It is better to just spend a lot of money and then promote and buy traffic. This is also the simplest and crudest promotional method. Some scam games in the past were made in this way, and the results were surprisingly good. It was outrageous, and later there were many followers.

"I don't want to play anymore!" After the stubborn Gengar lost five games, he gave up directly. However, Zoroark was still a little reluctant to play. The old butler Shibata on the side seemed to be thinking about something. No one knew what he was thinking about.

"Geng Gui, what do you think of this game?" Teng Shu asked with a smile. After hearing that, Gengar's face instantly fell. It really fell. This guy's face instantly fell to the ground, which made people feel a little creepy just by looking at it.

"Genger is too weak, how can we play the game without weakening him? And I am Gengar! This Alakazam is actually stronger than me?" Gengar is very dissatisfied. He is the overlord Gengar. Even Alakazam cannot withstand his attack. But now in this game, he can't beat Alakazam at all. Where can he go to seek justice?

Teng Shu was a little amused, but fortunately, this game named "Pokémon Battle Royale" by Teng Shu was fine for now. And unlike the booming game in his previous life, there were many Pokémon in the Pokémon world, and Teng Shu had more to choose from, so there was no need to worry about famous characters appearing and only becoming supporting roles in the later stages, and then some unknown people or even characters that had never appeared before becoming popular.

"Don't worry, at the beginning the characters will definitely check and balance each other, and have their own characteristics. In the later stages, stronger characters will naturally be released." Teng Shu comforted Gengar. As for Gengar, Teng Shu also had a way to deal with it. The simplest way was to create a MEGA Gengar, and then strengthen it, strengthening it to a distance +1, and by the way, the kind that allows you to draw cards when you receive damage. That's it, isn't it?

However, Teng Shu thinks that such a design can also be given to mythical beasts. After all, these mythical beasts are more in line with such requirements. By adding some card special effects, wouldn’t it be possible to make a lot of money?

After all, the design cost of such a game is very low, that is, the server and operation require money, and the rest of the time is basically making huge amounts of money. Teng Shu indeed intends to do so. He plans to use the money earned from the game to build a hospital. As for whether to get involved in the game industry, Teng Shu can only say that he will not consider it for the time being.

After all, Dewen Company is now involved in many fields, and it needs to keep a low profile rather than show off its strengths.

"Boss, can I appear on the card?" Zoroark said to Teng Shu with some excitement. Teng Shu nodded after hearing it. There would definitely be no problem with Zoroark, but there were some troubles with Zoroark in Xi Cui's appearance.

Teng Shu knew that ever since Zoroark's true identity became questionable, many Pokémon doctors wanted to study Zoroark. After all, a Pokémon that had survived from ancient times to the present was really rare. These Pokémon doctors were naturally very curious, but they were all rejected by Teng Shu.

If Teng Shu hadn't refused, it would be estimated that even if Zoroark went to the toilet, several scientific research teams would have to follow up and investigate.

Looking at Zoroark who was cheering, Teng Shu shook his head, but this was also a kind of data collection. Since Zoroark liked it so much, it should be easier to be liked by other players after it was put on the market. "Zoroark, if this is a mobile game, what kind of krypton gold method do you think will make players like it and be willing to accept it without criticizing the company?" Teng Shu looked at Zoroark and asked. Zoroark was a senior mobile game enthusiast. Although Teng Shu also played games, he played PC games most of the time.

"Boss, do you mean to make this into a game?" Zoroark was a little surprised. Teng Shu nodded. Why did he spend half a day modifying it if it wasn't a game? For excitement?
Zoroark fell into deep thought, while Teng Shu himself came up with a plan for Zoroark to look at. This was a krypton gold plan that Teng Shu summarized and compiled based on his own gaming experience in his previous life, and it was the kind that he personally could accept.

First of all, there is definitely a monthly card. After all, this thing is considered a standard feature of most pay-to-win mobile games. It can be said that except for stand-alone games with a buyout system and some small games that survive on advertising fees, most mobile games will have a monthly card, and then there are battle orders and passes.

Apart from that, Teng Shu only stuffed some krypton gold gift packages in. The biggest one was skins. However, these skins have not yet been designed. Teng Shu just proposed such an idea. When the time comes, Teng Shu’s requirement for these skins is that people will take out their wallets and buy them at a glance.

"Boss, two hundred draws are given away when the server is launched? Are you serious or are you just playing words?" Zoroark looked at the slogan and couldn't help asking.

After all, as a mobile game player, Zoroark has seen too many text games. For example, when the server is launched, it is claimed that 140 draws will be given away, but when entering the game, it is found that these are all the resources obtained in a week, and sometimes not all the draws will be given away.

"Of course I'll give it to you directly. With two hundred draws, according to the probability, you can collect all the Pokémon cards." Teng Shu said calmly. He didn't think about making money from the main body. Everyone has these Pokémon, and he will start making money later. Moreover, the skins in the main body are also the biggest part of krypton gold. After all, looking at other people's dynamic skins and your own immovable skin, as long as the price is right, there will probably be many people willing to pay for it.

Zoroark swallowed his saliva. So honest? But this is naturally a good thing for a player like Zoroark. Now Zoroark can't wait to take out this game and play it.

"Master Teng Shu, Dewen Company has several game development companies under it, as well as one or two mobile game companies, and even a dedicated art team." The old butler spoke up and Teng Shu nodded. He knew this, of course. Since the current response was good, they could start promoting this game to the world.

While The Grudge 2 continued to slay at the box office, an unknown gaming company, Nintendo, suddenly released a dual-platform game that was released simultaneously on mobile phones and PCs. Normally, such a game would not have attracted people's attention, after all, there are just too many games these days.

But soon after, overwhelming publicity completely bombarded everyone, and for a while, no matter what web page you opened, you could see this advertisement.

[Who in my family understands this? I opened a special website to learn the essence of the teachers, but I ended up seeing this Pokémon Brawl! ]

[Don’t mention it, I see this ad at least ten times a day when I open my phone! ]

[I am very curious now, what kind of company is this Nintendo Hell, and why is it so rich? ]

[Two hundred draws for free when the server opens? I guess you have to unlock all the main quests to get it.]

Although the reputation has been somewhat damaged, at least the effect that Teng Shu wanted was achieved. In this day and age, being black and red is also being red. Rather than letting the game remain unknown and waiting for the fans to attract people to play the game, Teng Shu thinks it is better to just spend money himself. Although this caused many people to have opinions, the game's popularity was also achieved.

Amidst such controversy, the game soon entered its public beta.

"Hello everyone, this is Xiaoka." At this moment on the Never Change video website, a man started his live broadcast on time. His live broadcast room was written with the words [Pokémon Brawl First Day Review], and a lot of viewers came in as soon as the live broadcast room was opened.

After all, Xiaoka is also quite famous in the entire Never Change Video Network. Many people know that Xiaoka is a game reviewer. In addition, the previous paid advertising of Pokémon Roaming also made many people curious about what this game is like.

"So everyone in the audience knows that today we are going to review the game Pokémon Battle Royale that was promoted so vigorously before. It will be launched at 10 o'clock this morning." Xiaoka clicked on the download button, and then it was finished downloading after 15 seconds.

"Eh? This game... isn't very big. Let's take a look. This game only takes up a little over two GB? This is really surprising, but it also makes me a little worried about the future of this game." Xiao Ka couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the amazing download speed.

[Indeed, the games I downloaded this year are bigger than each other. They are called mobile games, but they are almost the same as PC games.]

【Big is better (realistic)】

[It doesn’t really matter whether a game is big or not. What’s the most important thing about a game? It’s fun. Fun is the only criterion for measuring a game.]

【This is indeed】

The live broadcast room was also discussing it, and as Xiaoka registered an account and logged into the game, he first entered the novice guide. This novice guide also made Xiaoka interested in the game.

"It's quite interesting. Next I have to see how this server opens. Holy crap!"
