Game production, I entered the Star Iron shooting CG

The live broadcast room was almost filled with comments.

20 draws were given away before, and now 15 of each type of ticket are given away.

Players who were originally calculating how many days of daily tasks they had to accumulate to secure a character also put down their pens and papers.

Excitedly scrolling through the comments.

"The boss behind the scenes has been exposed. The evil hands of the old thief An are everywhere in this sea of ​​stars!"

"You old thief? How dare you talk to my big brother like that! Call me big brother now!"

"Black hand? Golden hand!"

"Give me so much! From now on I will be Mihoyo's sharp blade!"

"I'm so happy. 1500 million people have already made reservations before the server is even launched. I really want to see the wonderful expressions of the little black guy."

"Penguin: Who is Q-ing me? Who is Q-ing me!"

"Who are you? Penguin? I don't know you. I really don't know you. Don't contact me anymore. I'm afraid Mr. An will misunderstand me."

……

There were constant barrage in the live broadcast room.

"Dear pioneers, this live broadcast has come to an end. We are waiting for you on the Star Dome Train. Goodbye~"

All good shows always come to an end. Even if the audience in the live broadcast room are watching the show for a while, this surprise live broadcast is coming to an end.

However, just as the three people sitting on the sofa announced the end of the live broadcast and stood up to leave.

San Yue Qi suddenly seemed to step on something, then fell and sat on the sofa.

"Ouch, who threw something here?"

She picked up the things on the ground while rubbing her waist.

It was a completely black pistol with two deep scratches on the slide. Through the two cracks, one could even see the recoil spring and barrel inside.

Immediately afterwards, the screen in the live broadcast room was cut off.

The audience could only hear the conversation between San Yueqi and Dan Heng.

"Hey? How come this pistol is so broken? Where did you pick it up..."

"This is from a survivor from the planet Great Labour. She was also an unknown guest. This is her item. Her hometown was on the path of the Sand King. The scratches on it were left when she fought against the Zerg..."

Hearing this, the curiosity of the audience in the live broadcast room was immediately aroused.

The most important thing is that the two keywords "Zerg" and "Firearms" are highly consistent with the Easter egg page that everyone has been talking about a few days ago!

"Wait a minute, why is there still content? Don't let the screen go black."

"Oh my god, my buddy actually guessed it right. There really is a shooting game."

"How can I bear to be kept in suspense like this? I can't stand it anymore. I'm going to vent my anger on Duan Zhang Gou!"

"Woo, woo, woo, come back and talk for a while."

However, the live broadcast room was closed as the conversation between Danheng and Sanyueqi ended.

But the audience in the live broadcast room still did not leave.

They were all afraid that Mihoyo might have hidden some Easter egg information after they left.

However, after waiting for a long time, they finally felt relieved when the live broadcast room started to play Mihoyo’s promotional CG.

Everyone's attention on the Easter eggs has also shifted to the official StarTie server.

After all, the countdown for that easter egg page is still early, and the Star Iron that can be played tomorrow is definitely more attractive.

"Why is time passing so slowly? I can't wait any longer. It feels like there are insect kings crawling on my body!"

"Didn't you say time passed too quickly when you were watching the live broadcast just now?"

"I don't care! I want to play now!"

.........

Xingtie’s surprise live broadcast just ended.

Discussions about StarTie can be seen everywhere on the Internet.

The videos that the major UP hosts had in their hands and had originally intended to release after the game was officially launched were also released in advance to cater to this wave of popularity.

They also discovered that if they really waited until Star Railway was launched, the competition pressure would be ridiculously great to take advantage of this wave of popularity. It would be better to strike first and stabilize a wave of fans first.

Various videos emerge in an endless stream.

The live broadcast room of a soup dumpling.

Tang Baibai is analyzing the story behind the Mihoyo Easter egg page, guessing a lot, but it is quite convincing because the logic is self-consistent.

The discussion atmosphere among fans in the live broadcast room was very harmonious.

Tang Baibai looked at his fan list and couldn't stop smiling.

She was very cunning and made her own Easter egg page with serial number 0068 as the cover of the live broadcast, which had an excellent traffic-generating effect. Moreover, she only broadcast the live broadcast room of Mihoyo, and her fans increased by tens of thousands.

If things continue to develop in this way, maybe full-time Xingtie anchors will be able to support themselves.

.........

The live broadcast is over.

Yang Hao, who had been staring at the backstage, also breathed a sigh of relief.

This form of live broadcast was something he had never thought of before, and it was completely beyond his expectation that it could gain such popularity.

Yang Hao raised his head silently and glanced at An Yi who was still looking at his phone.

Sure enough, even with such terrifying popularity, he remained calm and composed.

After a while, An Yi finally put down his phone.

He was just replying to the message from Black Tower.

Penguin finally couldn't help it and used Mihoyo's engine to refurbish and reset its old game.

Heita, who had left a backdoor in the engine, naturally learned about this situation first and told An Yi the news.

But An Yi told her not to do anything yet.

When fishing, of course you have to wait until the fish has firmly bitten the bait before you lift the rod.

Seeing An Yi put down his phone, Yang Hao also reported: "This time it really went viral."

"The number of reservations has increased by 300 million, and the proportion of pre-downloaded games has reached 70%. With this ratio, at least tens of millions of players will flock to the game when the server opens tomorrow."

"Um……"

Hearing this, An Yi fell into deep thought. The server he had bought before was enough to accommodate 25 million people online at the same time.

This already leaves plenty of room for improvement, but I was still surprised when I heard the pre-download ratio.

Ten million people have already downloaded and installed the game. When the server opens tomorrow at noon, there won’t be a large number of players suddenly appearing and filling up my server.

However, on second thought, if the server doesn't crash once, the game will always feel incomplete...

Thinking of this, An Yi's mood, which had just been a little nervous, became calm again.

So he nodded and said to the equally excited employees in the office: "Very good! I declare today's work successfully completed, everyone go home and rest quickly. Don't be so excited that you lose sleep, you don't want to be unable to get up when you harvest tomorrow!"

"I can get up even if I don't sleep all night!"

"I also!"

"Okay, let's all go home. I'll send you red envelopes when the official server goes online tomorrow."

"Boss An, you are my God!"

Chapter 104: Mr. Wu envisions the future!

As the saying goes, some are happy, some are sad.

Here, Mihoyo’s Starry Sky Railway will be launched tomorrow. The sudden live broadcast has attracted 300 million reservations, making it the talk of the town.

On the other side, Penguin Games headquarters.

When Wu Zhiqun saw the ridiculously high number of reservations for Xingtie, he felt so uncomfortable.

For him, the saddest thing in the world is not his own failure, but the success of the person he once looked down upon. This is even more painful than killing him!

He now wished he could kick his useless cousin away.

If I had invested in Mihoyo at that time, wouldn’t the situation today be mine? !

However, the only thing that comforts Wu Zhiqun is that although Mihoyo's products are excellent, the overlap between its audience and Penguin Games should not be very large.

Moreover, the Penguin team has almost figured out how to use the new engine, and each studio is renovating and resetting old games in batches.

Once this batch of games gets a facelift, we’ll be able to make a lot of money again.

There is another thing worth mentioning. Wu Zhiqun’s superior, Xiao Ma Ge, also saw the potential market of the two-dimensional world and gave a strict order to let Penguin come and share a piece of the pie.

With instructions from his superiors, Wu Zhiqun was very radical and bold with his power, and he directly eliminated several dissenting voices within the company.

He quickly completed the power integration of the department. Without any resistance, he immediately invested heavily in building a new team. With Mihoyo's engine as the core, he planned to develop a StarCraft-style two-dimensional game to compete with Mihoyo for the market.

After several days of careful review, Wu Zhiqun believes that Mihoyo’s current success is largely due to this epoch-making engine technology.

Now that Penguin has the engine, the two companies are on the same starting line in terms of game development technology. In other aspects, Penguin is far ahead!

It is a large and powerful company backed by Tianma Finance, one of the current domestic investment giants.

Although he has a good reputation and receives mixed reviews, he is still one of the top names in the domestic gaming industry.

Although I had no idea about exploring new fields before, I didn’t expect that there is such a huge potential market in this field.

There is something about the second dimension...

In order to quickly seize the market, Penguin also brought out its best skills.

Mihoyo is doing interstellar travel, so here we are doing the magical world.

Changing the skin is a piece of cake.

But game quality and world view alone are not enough, the gameplay of a game is also very important.

However, the free switching between the two modes of Star Iron is really difficult to handle.

In response to this, Wu Zhiqun waved his hand and directly opened two projects!

Since I can't figure out the switching algorithm, I might as well separate the turn-based and real-time combat into two games, directly targeting the dual gameplay of Mihoyo's "Star Iron".

Soon, under the guidance of Mr. Wu.

"Codename: Transformation" and "Codename: World Tower" were both launched, intending to form a double-sided cheese sandwich!

With the support of the new engine, he is also confident that he can compete with Mihoyo in the two-dimensional field.

And, it's not just that.

Wu Zhiqun also discovered a fatal flaw of Mihoyo!

Nothing else,

It's revenue!

Mihoyo is indeed too young when it comes to dealing with the krypton gold rules!

Getting players to spend money is not an easy task.

Otherwise, Penguin’s planners wouldn’t be so worried about the monthly KPI, and wouldn’t have come up with all kinds of money-making schemes one after another.

And what about these young people at Mihoyo?

It's fine that it's a free game, but they don't even sell items that enhance attributes.

The only way to spend money is to draw characters, Xingqiong, but there are actually a lot of ways to obtain them during daily gameplay.

Wu Zhiqun knows the players too well. They will never spend money if they can get it for free.

Do you really think that players will pay for your excellent storyline?

Childish! Naive!
