'No? It's a preview of the movie, right? Why is this DLC free!'
‘What the hell is this a fantasy collaboration? You call this a DLC promotional video? Whose game’s DLC promotional video casts Keanu Reeves?!’
'I'm so direct that everyone is stupid...'
‘…’
good!
This time, the DLC promotional video named [John Wick] was filmed by the famous Hollywood actor Keanu Reeves!
And just as the players guessed!
This promotional film is not only the DLC of "Payday", but will also be the background prequel of the movie of the same name "John Wick"!
In this DLC, John Wick, who is about to retire, will perform the last mission in his career as a top assassin - to rescue Charon, the front desk manager of the Continental Hotel.
In the DLC, players will have a preliminary understanding of the world of John Wick, which will better pave the way for the subsequent official movie.
The starring role of Keanu Reeves undoubtedly gave everyone a great surprise.
After all, Keanu, known as one of the sexiest men in the world, can be said to kill both men and women.
He is both the mysterious and noble Neo in The Matrix and the handsome and unruly Constantine in the movie version of Hellraiser.
This time, even in terms of appearance, Keanu changed from his previous clean and dignified image, growing a beard and half-long hair parted in the middle.
But it was still difficult to conceal his angular face.
Even because he plays a top killer this time, Keanu's temperament has become sharper, with a sharp and decisive aura in his calmness, which adds a mature charm to his personal charm.
Exploded!
The barrage exploded!
An unprecedented movie trailer-style game promotion video!
Genuine global A-list movie stars participate!
In the form of a game, it foreshadows the movie!
This is an unprecedented fantasy linkage, which even "Resident Evil", which is quite successful in linking games and movies, cannot achieve this!
Wang Bang starts the game!
It immediately shocked the players.
It also made Shen Miaomiao stupid.
Take a look at Keanu Reeves’ handsome face that is weathered and angular.
Look at the barrage that filled the screen and exploded in situ.
Looking at Gu Sheng with a satisfied smile, he seemed to have expected this situation.
silence.
Silence is Shen Miaomiao today.
[They spent a lot of money to buy copyrights and derivative games, but in the end they lost everything, lost their wives and lost their troops]
[We develop games and spin-off movies to test the engine, and reverse output to earn box office, and both games and movies are blossoming]
A few months ago, I spoke openly in order to lose money, but now I have once again fallen into a situation where I have to follow my words.
Conscience of heaven and earth!
Shen Miaomiao was not feeling well!
My plan is theoretically watertight, right?!
After all, it was Lao Gu and the others’ original plan to purchase ready-made film and television rights and create games derived from them!
I, Shen Miaomiao, am not bragging. For Lao Gu, I cannot say that this is not challenging. I can only say that I can make money with my eyes closed.
I just want to make some pocket money for my small coffers! If I lose some money, I can use it as a decoration fund! Is there anything wrong with this?!
That’s why I used the excuse to give Yunwei a real business battle that is dangerous to people’s hearts, teach him both forehand and backhand, use games to create movies, and use difficult movements to show off, to give Yunwei a little golden shock.
Bros!
Games! Spin-offs! Movies!
Looking at the global game industry, the only one that can be considered successful right now is "Resident Evil"!
And this is still based on the fact that the fourth part of Resident Evil was released that year and became popular all over the world!
But what about us?
A test work with an investment of no more than 100 million dollars, why should it be spun into a movie?
At that time, if I lose 18 million, I can get a rebate of hundreds of millions. That won’t be a problem, right?
Our plan is not to say flawless, but it is at least very certain, right?
result!
I'm ready to put the money in sacks!
Damn it, Keanu Reeves?!
Hollywood? Saturn Award winner? The Matrix? The world's sexiest actor?
"you……???"
Shen Miaomiao looked at Gu Sheng on the other side of the sofa and couldn't speak clearly:
"This is...this spin-off movie?!"
"uh-huh,"
Gu Sheng nodded, very satisfied with the effect:
"This way, doesn't it look good?"
Talking!
I saw Gu Sheng stretched a bit, then crossed his legs, and the old god said:
"I have to say, the forehand and backhand teaching you mentioned before is really great,"
"It can even be said that if it weren't for the idea of forehand and backhand teaching, "Payday" might not have come out."
Gu Sheng really wasn't talking nonsense.
The reason why he wants to do the harvest day is really because of this "forehand and backhand teaching" that little Nezha said.
Yes.
If you have been, or are currently living in the parallel time and space before Gu Sheng, you can easily understand that the [John Wick] DLC is not original by Gu Sheng, but really exists in the DLC collection of "Payday" middle.
It's just that in Gu Sheng's past life time and space, the John Wick DLC is a derivative content linked to the movie.
In today's world, Gu Sheng swapped the two and used the first blockbuster DLC content to create a movie project.
In layman's terms, it means "I made this plate of dumplings just for this plate of vinegar".
Shen Miaomiao's face turned green!
Although it was clear that Gu Sheng did not mean to be sarcastic, but was really praising her for her wonderful ideas and great achievements.
But when she combined her original cleverness with the current situation, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but grit her teeth.
Gu Sheng's words and deeds seemed to be torturing her soul and self-esteem——
Are you sweating profusely, sister?
The most irritating thing is that in order to prevent her from not understanding it deeply enough, this guy also gave her a brief introduction to her belief——
In fact, as early as the beginning of the "Payday" project, Gu Sheng got in touch with Thomas from Legendary Pictures and quickly reached a cooperation.
Thomas is a veteran gamer and a standard ‘Shengchui’ player. In addition, the two parties had previously collaborated on “Pacific Rim” x “Titanfall” which was a great success.
Now, when Gu Sheng mentioned the joint development of movie games, Thomas was naturally a hundred times more interested.
Immediately with a wave of his hand, according to Gu Sheng's request, he assembled a cast that was enough to make Shen Miaomiao faint——
In addition to starring Keanu Reeves.
There is also Alfie Allen, who won the Emmy Award for Best Supporting Actor for "Game of Thrones";
Golden Globe Award for Best Actor, Ian McShane as Captain Blackbeard in "Pirates of the Caribbean";
There is even a Hollywood superstar, Willem Dafoe, who played the old Green Goblin in "Spider-Man".
Shen Miaomiao wanted to die.
Gu Sheng, on the other hand, was very interested:
"Keanu is very interested in this film. According to Thomas, so far, the special training for Keanu has been very successful,"
"After two and a half months of specialized training, Legendary Pictures is very confident about this filming,"
"I believe it will definitely give audiences who like action thriller movies an unprecedented visual and sensory experience."
Say it!
Gu Sheng smiled and stood up and patted Shen Miaomiao on the head.
Obviously, he no longer needs to know more about the DLC's first feedback.
The action design of punching to the flesh, coupled with the visual stimulation of blood splashing, and a new sensory experience that is infinitely closer to reality.
See the subtleties and know the work.
Through the players' attitudes towards this DLC promotional video, Gu Sheng can also roughly understand the audience's feedback on "John Wick".
Nothing else.
Just four words——
…
"……sucker Punch!"
at the same time!
Neon Comera!
After closing the tablet, Nakamura Masaichi seemed particularly happy and gave his own evaluation.
Beside him, Itosuke was stunned for a moment, looking at Masaichi Nakamura in surprise and not quite understanding why he said this.
sucker Punch?
Are you talking about the golden wind?
Shouldn't it?
Such a high-quality promotional video, Keanu Reeves' starring role, and the cooperation of Legendary Pictures.
Whether it’s the popularity or the surprising feedback from players, this DLC has nothing to do with “Death Struggle”, right?
Isn’t this obviously a step for Golden Wind to open up the film and television market?
Then, he poured a cup of tea for Itosuke and slowly said:
"The more this happens, the more it shows that the Golden Wind is on the verge of dying -"
What kind of game is "Payday"?
A multiplayer online cooperative [test] shooting game.
The emphasis is on "testing".
No doubt about it!
The purpose of this game is to serve as a carrier for the Golden Engine A-test.
"And a game that was used for testing is now so anxious to release a free DLC,"
"Moreover, this DLC will also lead to a movie co-invested and produced by Golden Wind and Legendary Pictures,"
"What does this mean?"
Nakamura Masaichi's eyes are quite meaningful.
The corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up, and his eyes revealed a discerning light:
"This shows that Golden Wind puts its energy into places where it should not be invested,"
"after all,"
"Now there are only three and a half months left before the China CJ Exhibition."
hiss--!!!
As soon as this statement came out.
Itosuke couldn't help but take a breath and understood what Nakamura Masaichi meant.
yes.
Now, there is only about a quarter left before the China CJ Exhibition is launched.
So logically speaking, what should Golden Wind do now?
They should step up the technological breakthrough of the golden engine.
They should devote all their energy to the research and development of CJ exhibition works.
They should constantly announce their research and development progress, whether it is true or false, at least to ensure that they are discussed before the CJ Exhibition.
They should make a voice to the outside world - we are working hard for this China CJ Exhibition.
but!
Golden Wind did not do this.
Instead they focused on a test game!
A movie was even made based on this test game!
Forcibly, a project that is not considered important can enjoy the treatment of a key project, or even more than that of a key project!
And this can only explain one thing——
Golden Wind is already in dire straits in terms of engine development.
Although this "Payday" is nominally an A-test, it is actually already at the limit of the golden engine.
"Make bricks without straw,"
Masaichi Nakamura concluded:
"Even Gu Sheng couldn't break through the limitations of the engine's industrial technology, so they had no choice but to carry out desperate instigation and development on the game's derivative projects,"
