Liu Yifei naturally knows all this very well, and he has even experienced it himself~
In the future, until the "War League" is officially launched and the first batch of "All-Star Players" are launched, the best way to become famous in the game is to have a close-up in a CG promotional video.
It can even be said that people who have not been able to make a single appearance in CG are embarrassed to mention that they are celebrities in "Heroes of Might and Magic: World of War"! Later, it also brought out a group of game traffic starlets...
This is indeed what happened~
But the problem is...the time is wrong!!!
If Liu Yifei's memory was correct, he remembered that the first officially released CG promotional animation in "history" should have been half a year after the official launch of the game, which was when the "Novice Trial" setting was cancelled.
The game officially released the first CG video at the same time - it seems to be more than 20 minutes in my impression? Anyway, less than half an hour... and single-handedly made a big celebrity in the first game - nicknamed "Dawn Ranger"
An elf player!
The elf characters were originally handsome and beautiful, and he was also capable of precise archery and sharp close-quarters sword skills (for the standards at the time). It is not known exactly how the fight came about. I only know that the elf was in one place.
In the woods, he was chased by a group of demonic creatures before dawn.
Then there was a chase in the forest that lasted for nearly ten minutes!
He alone occupied nearly half of the time in the first CG promotional video. How can he not become famous?
Especially at the end of the battle, against the background of the rising sun, the opponent pierced the throat of the last demon monster with a knife behind the enemy. Amidst the sound of the enemy "He He"'s throat breaking, a pair of cold and ruthless killers appeared from behind.
when the eyes...
Even though it was more than two years later that Liu Yifei dug out the old video for archaeology, he was still shocked by the last look in the "heroine's" eyes...
It is said that after the first promotional CG with astonishing effect was broadcast, the Elf clan had a surge of nearly 10 million new players in just one week, which almost made the game official smile crookedly...
But that should have happened more than three months later!
When is it now?
It’s not even three months since the server was officially launched!
Why did you receive the official background notification now?
This... "history" has undergone major changes? Or is it that the official first CG video needs to work hard to improve and plans to spend more than three months thinking about it?!
Liu Yifei's mind was filled with all kinds of thoughts. He was a little excited that he was going to be famous, but he was also a little worried about the impact of a major shift in history.
Fortunately, at the end of the private message, the other party also attached a video number, indicating that he was the manager of the company's publicity department, allowing Liu Yifei to contact the other party within working hours if he had any questions...
Humph~ You can’t use computer training during the day? Now that he was free, Liu Yifei simply cut out of the forum and sent the video notification.
Unexpectedly, the other party answered the call in seconds, and started introducing himself in an extremely proficient way... What the hell is this? Does the manager of the publicity department of a game company have to work overtime to this point? This young man is a little hardworking...
Although I was a little surprised that the other party was still working in formal attire after this point, the two of them quickly exchanged views on the issue of granting permissions after introducing their identities.
The other person had obviously been instructed to work with Liu Yifei. After all, Liu Yifei had a lot of work experience. The other person thought that he was a young man and was not very defensive. He was tricked by Liu Yifei within a short time of chatting, and he knew what he was doing -
- Actually, it’s right to think about it. What era is it now? Not many people are keen on playing battles, so how many “highlights” can be put together to put on the stage? Comparing the two, Liu Yifei’s battle process is indeed better than others
There’s a lot to see!
But since he has already grasped the opponent's bottom line, how can an old scheming guy like Liu Yifei not think of ways to make profits for himself? He rolled his eyes and suddenly said to the manager on the other side of the screen in a very philistine way: "...
So since your company is going to expropriate my game data, do you have to give me some reward or something? Do you want to pay?"
"Sir, I'm sorry~ In this regard, our company itself does not have a large budget, so we do not issue cash rewards to external parties...
However, the collection activity itself has a certain threshold. Being able to get the official recognition of our company shows that the player's own strength is commendable!
Coupled with the promotion of the event itself... In fact, as long as players pay a little attention, you can also find other ways to generate income. Believe me, those who participate in our company..."
"Tch~ After talking for a long time, it turns out that I have no money? What the hell are you saying about no money? The privacy of our game players is also protected by law, okay? If there is no benefit, why should I open up permissions to you in vain?
Besides, you still want to make my experience public to a large extent...there are many hidden dangers here! What if some of my secrets that I don’t want to be discovered are also made public by you?"
"Mr. Player, don't get excited~
In fact, what we are negotiating is only the most preliminary authorization matter.
If you agree to our search and interception of part of your game experience, we will conduct more detailed information confirmation later. If you have any secrets that you do not want to be made public, we will respect it..."
"Hmph~ You are very careful about these small things, but why are you so fussy about big issues? Speaking of such a big company, you are not willing to spend money on publicity... I am also helping you with publicity.
Game! Why didn’t you get any money?
If you don't give out money, you have to give some rewards in the game, right? For example, equipment, skills, etc... By the way, do you give talents? There are so few talents in your game, it's so difficult to get! Otherwise, rewards
I also have two talents!"
Liu Yifei pretended to be a noob and started asking for prices without blinking~
The manager on the other side of the screen seemed to be shocked by Liu Yifei's huge appetite. He endured it and said with a stiff smile: "This player... I'm sorry, after our company's game is completely uploaded to the main intelligent operation, the data
The permissions are all managed, and we do not have the right to delete, modify or add without permission. Your request..."
"What? Even if you don't pay, you can't even give some benefits in the game?
Damn it~ can you do it? Such a big company is just a shell, right? I originally thought your game was quite fun, but judging from your reaction now, I am starting to worry about the strength of your company...
…”
The manager's eyes twitched unconsciously, but he still forced a smile on Liu Yifei's face, trying to gain his approval and support.
After dawdling with the other party for a while, during which he continued to attack and despise the other party, Liu Yifei felt that he was almost over the heat, so he suddenly changed the topic: "This won't work, that won't work either... Then let's ask your company for a little help from the head office?
If this doesn't work, I will have to change the game, because your official ability to do things is really worrying~"
"This...Mr. Player...may I ask...what do you need help with? If it is within our capabilities, we..."
"Oh, actually it's nothing special, I just want you to help me check some player names~"
"Sir! This also involves the privacy of other players' personal information! Our company respects the private rights of every player and will never..."
"Oh!!! You are such a person~
What did I say that you are so anxious? Did I say that I wanted to check their private information or character accounts? These are some of my old friends who used to play games together. Didn’t we accidentally lose contact later? I just want to find them.
Check them out and see if you can reconnect with them through your games!
How inspiring and heartwarming is this? Your game not only brings an interesting gaming experience to many players, but also helps old friends reunite in a new fantasy world. If you talk about it, it will make you cry, right?
Besides, I just need you to do a little search for me, and then just tell me if anyone in your game uses this game name!
Just tell me 'yes' or 'no'. You don't need to tell me any other personal information about the player. You don't even need to tell me where he is or what race he plays. You just need to tell me if there is this person. That won't work.
Well?! Really..."
It was obviously something that he should ask for help from the other party, but Liu Yifei said it with a lot of displeasure, as if the other party was deliberately making things difficult for him... But the problem is, with a series of previous foreshadowings, Liu Yifei's condition suddenly seemed "very loose"
In fact, the manager was quite moved... The key is that this matter is indeed within their capabilities~
And if you just check whether anyone uses a certain game IP without revealing any other information, it doesn't seem to be a breach of player privacy...
"Sir, could you please wait a moment? I need to consult our company's legal affairs on this matter. If it is determined that there are no legal disputes or hidden dangers, our company..."
"Oh~ I know, I know, it's so long-winded! Go, go, go, I'll be waiting here. Contact me when there is news, hurry up~
Ouch, the people in these game companies are so slow in doing things, I feel like their work efficiency is very low..."
Before closing the video communication, Liu Yifei still pretended to complain like this, with a look of disgust on his face. He didn't feel there was anything wrong with his "scary" tone, and pretended not to see the looming forehead of a certain manager on the other end of the video.
The word "╬" cut off the communication with such a loud voice.
But what a certain manager on the other end didn't know was that almost at the moment when the video interface went dark, a certain bumbling guy's right hand had subconsciously clenched into a fist...
