Let you make games, you directly shoot blockbusters?

Just one hour.

The whole game circle exploded.

The video of the conversation between Arthur and the nun, like a torrent and tsunami, swept across all platforms in an instant.

Even the major live broadcast rooms were full of crying and cursing.

"Woooooo my Arthur."

"Honghuang, you have done all the bad things, return my Arthur!"

"If I had known earlier, I would not have advanced the plot."

"Damn it, this game should die in the third chapter!"

"I'm afraid, the four words make my scalp numb."

"My heart hurts so bad I can't breathe."

"Tell me this is just a game character."

Break the defense, this time the players really broke the defense.

They never thought that a character in a game could have such a powerful empathy ability.

Just one sentence, one look, let them feel Arthur's deep helplessness and fear, hitting the softest part of their hearts.

Just this scene.

The portrayal of the role of Arthur has been raised to an unbelievable level.

This game called "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption" is even more a work of art. It has completely transcended the scope of the game and far exceeded the players' understanding of the gameplay.

It is definitely epoch-making.

Then a word began to spread in various circles.

I can live without Red Dead, but it's not on my list.

Yes.

See this gut-wrenching ending.

Many people dare not continue to advance the plot, or get stuck in the first three chapters, or simply buy it and not play it.

What's more, in order to go in and kill Arthur to avenge Arthur, he went directly to the villain's route.

The popularity of "Red Dead Redemption" has gradually surpassed the annual monopoly of the three console platforms, reaching an unprecedented level.

"Mr. Carter, something is wrong!"

Juhard, a branch company.

Holding a report, Wei Mo hurried into the director's office with panic on his face.

"Didn't I tell you to knock first when you come in? What's the matter?"

Carter, who had just reported to the headquarters, had a sullen face, looking very dissatisfied.

"It's Honghuang's new game, it surpasses us!"

Wei Mo was out of breath, and there was still a strong shock in his eyes.

As if seeing something unbelievable.

He hurried over and handed the report to Carter.

Originally, Carter wanted to curse a few more words, but when he saw the statistics in the report, his eyes widened suddenly.

【Game: Red Dead Redemption】

【First day sales: 4.5 million copies】

4.5 million?

This is impossible!

Carter rubbed his eyes so hard that it was almost gone, but the number on it still didn't change, which made his hands tremble a little.

"Mr. Wei, are you sure this data is correct!?"

"Yes, we contacted the people on the steam side to confirm, and estimated it through some means. This is the number."

Weimer took a deep breath and replied.

He is very clear about the concept of 4.5 million sales on the first day.

Even for those tens of millions of games on the market, the original score was only more than 2 million.

Honghuang's game doubled directly, which is self-evident.

It is very likely to become a sales myth that no one can break for a long time!

Even their proud annual exclusive sales of 1.8 million are overshadowed by this game.

them.

Actually turned this game away with my own hands.

Push this sales myth that should belong to them to others!

Every time Wei Mo thinks of this, his lips feel dry, and he regrets that he didn't try his best to keep people from Honghuang Studio.

It's too late to say anything now.

Tread——

Carter, who was holding the report, staggered, his eyes were full of panic, and he could no longer maintain his usual calmness.

4.5 million sales!

Just because of his dereliction of duty, he pushed out the door.

Even if the board of directors doesn't hold him accountable, other competitors will definitely make use of the problem, and he may not be able to keep his position by then.

He didn't understand that the gap between the two games would be so big since they were both open worlds and the gameplay was reproduced.

Moreover, they also have the support of the entire platform, so they can use the entire platform to promote without consuming resources.

No matter how big the gap is, it shouldn't be this big.

"Quick, hurry up and notify the publicity department and ask them to increase their publicity efforts. Even if they can't catch up, they must narrow the gap!"

Suddenly, Carter woke up with a start.

The only thing he can do now is this, increase investment in publicity, and narrow the gap between the two sides as much as possible.

In this way, even if the board of directors is held accountable, it will not cause too much impact. At most, it will blame him for not doing things well.

Anyway, the two games have one PC and one console, and the player groups don’t have much contact with each other. As long as they can beat the other two consoles, they can still save the situation.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Weimer also knew that the matter was of great importance, and it was useless to complain about Docarter's behavior at the beginning, so he turned around and left immediately.

However, just walked out a few steps.

Another employee hurried over.

"Mr. Carter, the department below just sent a message that the online players of our new game are rapidly losing!"

"What!?"

Carter's breath stagnated when he heard the words, and Weimer's footsteps also stopped instantly.

The employee came in front of the two and hurriedly said: "That's right, according to our investigation, a large number of players have been affected by the online news and have already transferred to the steam platform to play that "Red Dead Redemption"!"

"Go to the steam platform??"

"Yes, the full version of Honghuang's "Red Dead Redemption" also has a handle operation, which caused many console players to create PC accounts in the past, and the growth rate of our new game sales dropped by 30%!"

boom!

Carter slumped down on the chair, his eyes glazed over.

A large number of players are lost, not to mention narrowing the distance with Honghuang, I am afraid that even the other two host platforms will soon surpass them.

He never expected that a game could actually cross platforms and pull players from the console side to the PC side.

If this game was theirs, it must have left Sony Nintendo far away and helped them win this competition.

It even became the largest host platform in one fell swoop!

until now.

He finally understood what stupid thing he did back then, but it was too late.

ring ring ring——

At this time, the international call on the side.

Carter, who was in a trance, was startled, and quickly picked up the answer.

"Hello, director."

"Carter, I have received news from your side. It seems that you are not suitable for handling Asian affairs. Prepare to be transferred back. I will send someone to take over your work in a few days."

Click!

Without giving him any chance to respond, he hung up the phone directly.

Carter stood there holding the microphone, regretful in his heart.

he knows.

I'm done.

Compared with the bleakness on the Juhan side.

The other two platforms and partners are much better.

Especially Ren Tiandi and Shengqu, who deliberately avoided the positive, are really relieved now.

"Fortunately, we had the foresight and did not copy Honghuang's gameplay like them."

"The daily sales of 4.5 million directly won the top sales of the day, and even broke the record. In such a game of animals, whoever blocks it will die."

During the video conference, the high-level executives of Ren Tiandi and Shengqu were extremely shocked and somewhat gloating.

Although their side was also affected, many players were sucked away by "Red Dead Redemption".

But because it is a cartoon adventure open world game, it avoids direct competition in terms of screen gameplay, and the loss is not too big.

It's not like Juhard who even copied the gameplay, but was trampled to death by more than twice the sales, and became a stepping stone for others.

"Everyone underestimated Honghuang this time. I originally thought that the sales of 3 million copies of the pre-emptive version were outrageous enough."

"Fortunately, you only raised relatively high conditions at the beginning, and there was no one who made things difficult for them."

"It's a pity, let the steam pick up such a big deal for nothing, I guess I'm going crazy with joy now?"

The high-level speeches were full of emotion.

With sales of 4.5 million on the first day, it is only a matter of time before it becomes a hit of tens of millions, even if they are all jealous.

It also proves a point.

The potential of the quality market is much greater than they imagined.

It seems that it is time to change direction and increase investment in production.

at the same time.

Honghuang studio.

"Sell the crown! Our game is sold!"

"Look, Boss Song! Our game is number one!"

Excited cheers erupted in the office area one after another.

The entire Liming team gathered around the computer, looking excitedly at the top game on the daily sales list.

It is their "Red Dead Redemption: Redemption"!

In just one day, he rushed to the first place with such a strong posture, and left the second place far behind.

This kind of imposing manner that they will be on the verge of extinction makes them feel like they have been beaten with chicken blood, and they are so excited that they can't speak coherently.

"It's fine, it's fine, it's just a pin crown, what a fuss."

At this time, Lao Song couldn't stop the smile on his face, and glanced at the rankings on the list from time to time.

As expected of this game, their entire Liming team expended a lot of effort to make it, and the results are simply beyond imagination.

starting today.

No one dares to despise their prehistoric people any more.

Even all the people involved in the production will double their value in the game industry in the future and become the industry's elite.

The reputation of the Liming team under Honghuang.

It's completely out.

"Mr. Chen, come and see! We're on the top of the list!"

Suddenly, a cry of surprise interrupted everyone's discussion.

Chen Lin, who had just finished a phone call with the person in charge of the steam platform, came slowly from a distance.

"Well, I already know, everyone has worked hard during this time."

Chen Lin smiled and waved his hands, feeling very good.

This first-day result is completely worthy of the previous life.

It seems that as Honghuang's influence grows, their games also begin to show their original prestige.

And with the experience of two lifetimes, he will also avoid the defects in those games during the production process, so as to achieve a more perfect state.

It is not surprising to get this result.

"Should we make an announcement to promote it?" Lao Song asked.

"Not in a hurry, just wait for two more days." Chen Lin said casually.

"Wait another two days?"

Lao Song was taken aback for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he immediately realized it.

really.

Now is not the best time to make an announcement.
