Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

On the other hand, there is also concern.

He was worried that if Tang Yan really fell, he would be finished...

At this moment, Yu Zhong has completely changed. Just like in her previous life, after Bao Si was released in Girls' Frontline 2, Yu Zhong had lost her spirit.

The decisions he made were less a matter of repentance.

Rather, it's more accurate to say that before death, a person has no other choice but to simply want to live.

Yu Zhong was in the same situation at this time.

If he could recognize reality at this point, given the current situation in Girls' Frontline 2, he might not be unable to survive.

But Yu Zhong is still Yu Zhong.

He sat on the sofa and took a deep breath.

Although Tang Yan said that the matter should end there, he did not intend to let it end there.

He needs to find a way to salvage the situation somewhat.

After thinking for a while, Yu Zhong picked up the cell phone on the table and made a call to a contact marked "Xiaolingtong".

The call was answered quickly.

On the other end of the phone was Qin Xiao's voice.

It sounded a bit strange; it wasn't as noisy as usual, and it was relatively quiet.

However, Yu Zhong didn't think about it in detail.

I directly expressed my needs, and the other party responded with "uh-huh" and "yeah".

Yu Zhong thought it was because they didn't have enough money.

"Alright, as long as Girls' Frontline 2 becomes a hit, there will be more to come."

All the way up to here.

If Yu hangs up the phone, nothing will happen.

But just before he hung up the phone, he asked this question.

"Hey, by the way, why haven't you finished dealing with Lin Li's matter yet?"

When Yu Zhong said those words.

He sensed that someone on the other side seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

After chatting for a few more minutes,

Then he sensed that the person on the other end had changed.

"Hello, we are from the Suzhou-Hangzhou Police Station. You are involved in defamation, and we need your cooperation in the investigation."

When I heard this sentence.

Yu Zhong felt the temperature around him suddenly drop by more than ten degrees.

My blood has gone cold.

Girls' Frontline 2's dream hadn't even begun when it was attacked unexpectedly.

News of the producer's second stint in the police force spread to the internet.

This drew a lot of laughter.

Shengqu Games quickly issued a denial, stating that it was a misunderstanding and that the producer was simply cooperating with the police.

However, once you're in jail, you're in jail.

Not to mention, this isn't the first time Yu Zhong has been to the police station; this is the second time!

During the investigation in Yu Zhong.

Girls' Frontline 2 completely collapsed.

However, these issues were largely ignored during the major update of Starfire Girls 2.0.

Yu Zhong and his Girls' Frontline have died in some unknown corner.

When Yu Zhong entered the police station.

The entire internet is buzzing about it.

The most discussed topic is still Girls Frontline 2.0, and this time the discussion is not only in the gaming circle, but also caused a sensation in the military circle.

At the beginning.

In an interview, Russian President Vladimir Putin mentioned a video he recently saw called "Charge to Victory," whose lyrics and visuals resonated with the spiritual aspirations of contemporary Russian youth.

This interview did not initially attract any attention.

Until a Bilibili content creator found the video on YouTube.

To everyone's surprise, they discovered...

The video that Putin mentioned is none other than the final animation of Girls' Frontline 2.0, and this time Spark added global voiceover.

Therefore, this part of the song is sung in Russian, and it is truly very moving.

Following this discovery.

This information began to spread rapidly on the internet.

To be fair, President Putin still has some influence in China.

Leaving politics aside, let's talk about people purely.

It also has a high level of brand recognition.

Consequently, the video and the game he mentioned also suddenly became popular.

Then immediately afterward.

A group of military-themed content creators started analyzing this issue, even though there wasn't much to analyze.

But it's all for the sake of trending topics.

Their analysis revealed that many people were very interested in the various guns and weapons featured in the video.

And so it happened very quickly.

They shifted from sharing the event itself to analyzing the equipment featured in the video, especially the new equipment.

And Spark designed a whole host of weapons, armored vehicles, tanks, and exoskeletons for high-altitude, frigid regions in this animation.

It's okay if we don't analyze it.

Upon analysis, everyone realized, wow.

The spark is truly fine.

For each of these items, detailed information can be found on the official website.

Therefore, in this 2.0 celebration.

Many content creators in the military-themed content creation section have also benefited from the increased traffic.

When many people post these videos, the comments section is always flooded with them.

"Oh, you play this game too."

Their videos circulated not only on Bilibili but also on Douyin, and this promotion further amplified the spread of the Frontline Girls.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Battlefront Girls is a gun-girl game.

However, within the broader military enthusiast community, many people know about Battlefront Girls, but very few actually play them.

However, this time, the frontline girls used a highly infectious video and storyline.

It really touched a lot of people.

This helped them overcome their preconceived notions and truly engage with the game.

Microsoft Headquarters

Phil Spencer, president of Microsoft gaming, is looking at a data report.

The data shown above represents Microsoft's gaming performance in the first quarter of 2019.

His expression showed a mixture of joy and worry.

The good news is that Microsoft games have been developing steadily recently, while the bad news is that after the large-scale growth of XGP users in 2018.

By the first quarter of 2019, XGP's growth had stalled.

Phil Spencer may be unfamiliar to many, but within Microsoft Games, he is a true president.

It also has a very good reputation among Microsoft gamers.

Chapter 237 Going to China

He took office shortly after the release of the Xbox One, a time when Microsoft gaming was in dire straits.

Because when the Xbox One was first released.

Former Microsoft gaming president Don Matthias defined the Xbox One as a streaming console.

They weren't satisfied with Xbox being just a game console; they wanted it to further invade the media landscape, completely dominate users' TVs and living rooms, and become the ultimate one-stop entertainment center.

Therefore, during the debut of the Xbox One, Don Mattrick made media features the focus of the entire presentation.

But gamers weren't there to see a high-spec TV box, so the Xbox One's debut was met with a barrage of criticism from gamers.

Then Don Mattrick did something else inexplicable: he added a motion-sensing kit as an option to the previous console.

In the next generation, it directly became a standard feature in bundled sales.

This directly led to the Xbox One, a game console with inferior performance compared to the PS4, being sold at a high price of $499.

It's 100 more expensive than the PS4.

After a series of questionable maneuvers, the Xbox One was utterly crushed by the PS4.

Don Mattrick resigned, and Phil Spencer took over.

It can be said that Spencer was appointed during a time of crisis.

Spencer demonstrated a remarkable ability to handle this crisis. Prior to taking over as head of Xbox, he served as Vice President of Microsoft Game Studios.

But beyond that, he is also a super hardcore gamer.

He knew what players needed, so after taking office he quickly changed the bundling strategy and lowered the price of the Xbox One by $100.

They cleanly and decisively cut off the unnecessary business on Xbox One multimedia, recovered a huge amount of funds, and invested all of that money into games.

He then made a decision that went against his ancestors' wishes: to abandon the console exclusivity strategy.

This was a risky move that could not be reversed once it was taken. At the time, almost all the players thought this person was crazy, but in hindsight, it wasn't so crazy.

Of course, of all the decisions, XGP, which was launched in June 2017, was obviously the most important.

Initially, many game developers and publishers were quite resistant to XGP, since if games were given away for free, who would buy them in the future?

But Spencer is Spencer after all, and Microsoft is Microsoft after all.

Despite the financial burden, they still managed to drive the development of XGP.

And it achieved great success in 2018.

According to Microsoft's financial report, Xbox game revenue increased significantly by 39% compared to the same period last year, with Xbox software and services accounting for the majority, growing by 36%.

Meanwhile, Microsoft Xbox Live's monthly active users increased by 8% year-on-year, reaching 5700 million.

In fiscal year 2018, Xbox gaming revenue alone reached $103.53 billion, a very strong result.

Therefore, Spencer is very much looking forward to 2019.

however.

As 2019 arrived, XGP's growth began to slow. Spencer needed a new growth engine: acquire a new studio? Bring more vendors into Microsoft's ecosystem?
