Game production, I entered the Star Iron shooting CG

After looking at the poster, An Yi realized that this post was actually posted by the official account of CUCG.

No wonder he speaks in a more official manner.

In the domestic gaming field, CUCG has the highest recognition among players, and there is a reason for that.

This is because CUCG never charges money for its services, and all its reviews of games are honest and they say whatever they think.

This time, CUCG’s praise was not awkward, but expanded from the popularity of the game "Night City" in China to its popularity overseas.

The Youmi Cloud Platform was launched simultaneously around the world.

Overseas, the sales of Night City are even higher than in China! Of course, this is also affected by the difference in payment habits between overseas and domestic users.

However, "Night City" has surpassed other works of the same period from major overseas companies with its real sales volume, and this cannot be faked.

In the past, a domestic buyout game would have to go through a lot of trouble to go overseas.

Not to mention that Youmi Cloud is a brand new game distribution platform, so there is naturally a threshold.

A domestic stand-alone game like "Night City", which didn't even have time to do localized foreign language dubbing, can be very popular in the overseas game market.

How high must the quality of this game be to make foreigners willing to study Chinese with a dictionary in hand and learn while playing?

Therefore, CUCG published this article, which is full of praises, and even used words like "the best stand-alone game! Mihoyo! The light of domestic stand-alone games!" to describe "Night City".

Not worried at all about ruining their reputation.

Just kidding, right now in CUCG, 10 out of 9 editors are using the excuse of reviewing Night City to play Adam Hammer during working hours, and the remaining one has taken annual leave and is secretly playing at home.

Use practical actions to prove that they are not just bragging.

The players are even more excited.

Since they can be editors of CUCG, their cultural level is acceptable. This post directly broadened the players' vocabulary!

So that they don't have to use words like "wow", "awesome" etc. to express their excitement when playing Night City.

This also led to a lot of player replies to this post, more than the previous player's Bible-shaking reply.

"You guys are really educated. I can only say that Mihuoyou and La are really awesome."

“Night City is overwhelming in terms of both technical capabilities and innovative gameplay. The scene where I killed myself at the end of the cyberpsychosis quest gave me goosebumps. It was so shocking.”

"Mihoyo is so awesome. My roommate when I was studying abroad called me today and the first thing he said was, 'Oh, my dear Tom Liu, long time no see. Do you know where to get the enhanced accessories for the Mantis Blade? I don't recognize the name of the neighborhood in this quest prompt.' Then I thoughtfully mailed him a new flower dictionary."

"Le, Night City, a brand new Chinese character promotion software."

"I want to apologize to An Yi. I was wrong to call him a thief before! The hidden ending is so good! I was moved to tears. It was such an unprecedented experience. Especially since I got the devil ending last week, the feeling of making up for the regret is really unforgettable. I may remember this game for the rest of my life."

"It's mainly because the CEO of Mihoyo is too powerful. After the game was completed, a large part of the credits list was filled with An Yi's name."

"really!"

"..."

“Night City! The light of domestic stand-alone games! Well-deserved!”

An Yi casually flipped through the comment section, feeling a little unsatisfied.

Can you praise? If you can, praise more!

The success of "Night City" is certainly worth celebrating.

But for Anyi, Night City has done its job well - promoting the Youmi Cloud platform. This is the most important thing.

Jingle bell bell~

At this time, An Yi's mobile phone received several messages.

Chapter 214: Fire will melt the ice and bring warmth.

【"Ange, are you up?"】

【“Ange, you’re not still sleeping, are you?”】

[“You can’t be obsessed with beauty!”]

[“Ange, how can you still sleep? Have you seen the results of Night City? With this result! How can you sleep?!”]

An Yi picked up his phone and looked at the messages Lin Yuzhu had sent him since early morning. He then looked at the call she was calling. He grinned, pressed the answer button, and asked with a smile, "You look so anxious. What happened to the performance of Night City?"

"No big deal, it's just that CUCG got its first full score."

On the other end of the phone, Lin Yuzhu's voice was obviously restrained, but An Yi could hear the uncontrollable rising tone in it.

"Full marks... This is really unexpected. Let me take a look."

An Yi had indeed seen the comments CUCG had left on the Youmi Cloud platform, and knew that CUCG had high praise for Night City. But he was still a little surprised by the full score.

Because the domestic public generally advocates moderation and harmony, people usually do not give full marks.

Taking the 100-point system as an example, 97.8 is generally the default full score, and one or two points must always be left for players who have different views on the game.

But a full score is different. A full score means that no gamer can refuse this game.

An Yi pushed the voice box aside and opened CUCG's official website, wanting to read their comments.

As soon as he entered the website, An Yi was shocked. The background of the official website was the promotional poster of Night City.

Right above the official website is a red banner that is very eye-catching. It reads "Night City, the first masterpiece to receive a perfect score! The pride of domestic stand-alone games."

It made An Yi think that he had entered the official website of Mihoyo.

CUCG, you are coming up with a new and unconventional form of award ceremony.

An Yi quickly scrolled down and skipped the banner that was a bit eye-catching.

The game reviews given by the editor at the bottom of the official website are even more important.

【First of all, as an individual and as a player, I would like to thank Mihoyo for bringing us the game "Night City"! "Night City" is a symbol of freedom and chaos. It not only brings a new gameplay, but also creates a unique and complete cyberpunk world. Just like Mihoyo's previous slogan said, if the game is a real city, are you willing to live in it? Now, I can give my answer, I do! 】

This is too lickable...

After reading the ratings and comments, An Yi closed CUCG's official website, frowned, paused, and asked into the phone, "Well, are you sure our people didn't give CUCG money?"

"Money? No."

Lin Yuzhu was confused for a moment, not understanding what An Yi meant, and continued excitedly: "Rather, it's better to say that players are giving our game money now. On the third day of release, Night City's momentum has exploded again, and sales have increased instead of decreased, especially overseas. The sales growth is simply terrifying. Brother An, guess how many copies of the game have been sold now?"

"..."

An Yi couldn't help but smile as he listened to Lin Yuzhu's excited muttering. It seemed that this child was really happy.

He can see the game sales as long as he logs into the backend account.

But now, An Yi didn't want to spoil the kid's fun, so he pretended not to know, reported a number at random, and waited for Lin Yuzhu to announce the answer.

Sure enough, listening to An Yi's guess.

Lin Yuzhu could no longer hold back and announced the answer, saying excitedly, "Seven million six hundred thousand! Three days! Only three days, by the end of this weekend, it is very likely to exceed ten million!"

"Also, An Ge, there's something funny. Today, Yang Hao received calls from several colleagues, all of whom were trying to indirectly question the sales of Night City. They all felt that our game was very popular, but it might not be a big hit."

"Ang, why don't we publish the data?"

Hearing this, An Yi thought about it carefully and replied, "Okay, but wait a while. Announce it when the sales volume exceeds 10 million copies. That way it will have a greater impact on the public and can have a better publicity effect for Youmi Cloud."

The data must be published, but not to slap the faces of peers.

Colleagues feel that the sales of "Night City" are not ideal, and there is a reason for that. The domestic stand-alone game market has been sluggish for a long time.

"Developing stand-alone games is a dead end" is the common understanding of all domestic game practitioners. We have been like this for more than ten years, and suddenly seeing a stand-alone game breaking this iron rule, it is certain that we will have doubts.

The reason why colleagues are asking about the sales of "Night City" now is simply because they regard Mihoyo as the number one in the industry and want to ask whether Mihoyo's path is successful.

It’s like everyone is going on an adventure in the wild, and there are two roads. One is flat and safe. As long as you walk up it and squeeze through the crowds, you will reach the end.

The other road was a dense forest full of thorns. Mihuyou went straight in, lit a bonfire, and sang and danced. People walking on the road were attracted by the singing. They stood outside the dense forest, but did not dare to go in. Naturally, they would ask Mihuyou, "Is this road passable?"

This is also what An Yi wants to see.

Flames can bring warmth and hope. I hope that the blazing fire of Night City can dispel the cold winter of domestic stand-alone games.

Just when An Yi was concentrating on thinking, the silver wolf who was sleeping on his thigh suddenly rubbed upwards, and its little head hit An Yi's elbow.

The silver wolf let out a cute groan in pain and suddenly woke up from his sleep, making “hmm, ahhh, shashaha” sounds from his mouth.

Naturally, these voices were also heard by Lin Yuzhu on the other end of the phone.

Suddenly, Lin Yuzhu's original chattering excitement was replaced by shyness. She said, "Well, An Ge, I have something else to do at the company. I'll hang up first... And, you must take care of yourself. I know my sister-in-law is very beautiful, but she is still young..." and hung up the phone in a hurry.

Before hanging up the phone, An Yi could still hear Lin Yuzhu mumbling something, which was probably that the voice just now didn't sound like Heita's, and she was curious about who was next to An Yi.

"Um……"

An Yi put down his phone with a frown on his face and looked at the Silver Wolf who had woken up and was rubbing his head.

He looked at the message "Obsessed with Beauty" that Lin Yuzhu had sent on his phone that morning.

I always feel like... my reputation has been damaged!

Damn, which bastard spread rumors about me in the company!

Slander! Someone is slandering me!

After a moment's silence, An Yi stared at the Silver Wolf who had just woken up and was still confused.

Their eyes met, and Silver Wolf felt a little shy under the burning gaze, hesitating: "What...what are you doing?"

"Fuck, bah, bah, bah..." At this time, An Yi had changed into an expression of enlightenment and seeing through everything, and continued: "Wolf, I lit a fire, and now I am very angry."

As he said that, An Yi grabbed Yinlang's little hand and pulled her to his side.

"Ah??? No, don't, the black tower is still next to us. We can go back to the room..."

"What nonsense are you thinking about! I have something serious to tell you!" An Yi was a little annoyed.

He is a gentleman, why do some people always misunderstand him!

The world is full of slander against him! Can it ever get better?

An Yi squeezed Silver Wolf's little hand and continued, "It's like this. I have a plan now and I need your help. Do what you love to do."

"Eh? Doing what I love to do..." Silver Wolf blushed and whispered, "Isn't that considered a serious matter? Okay. What is the plan? Tell me."

Listening to Silver Wolf's words, An Yi was speechless for a moment. Black Tower, what common sense did you teach Silver Wolf? !

After slapping Heita's butt who was still talking in his sleep, An Yi continued, "It's not a big deal. I just want you to play a game and give me some advice."

……

……

on Monday.

The fifth day of the release of Night City.

Discussions about this game can be seen everywhere in the gaming community.

And it was on this day.

Mihoyo took the initiative to announce the total sales of "Night City" at home and abroad to date.

——One thousand one hundred and three hundred and sixty thousand copies!

This almost terrifying number shocked many domestic game companies.

Penguin Games Headquarters

Wu Zhiqun sat in his office, looking at the sales volume announced by Mihoyo, and counted the simple number over and over again.

Ones, tens, hundreds...millions, tens of millions!

A total of 8 digits with both zeros and integers.

8 digits...

Ten million copies...

Wu Zhiqun checked again and made sure that there was no miniature decimal point or any other symbol in the string of numbers, then he smiled bitterly.

His body slowly went limp and he slumped in the chair. His eyes lost their luster and he stared at the screen blankly.

"Night City" is a stand-alone game, and Penguin's stand-alone game business accounts for a very small proportion.

Wu Zhiqun shouldn't be so depressed, but for no reason he suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart.
