"It will be good if the DLC of "The Witch" is progressing steadily. There is no rush for time. After all, it is just an expansion pack similar to a prequel and we have already completed most of it."
on Monday.
Linmu Studio.
In the conference room.
Lin Yao sat in the front seat, pondered for a moment, and then continued: "In addition, the online game of "DOTA" is steadily advancing, and there is no rush. The expansion pack of "Warcraft" is confirmed to be online next month... Then we only have two people left.
There are two relatively urgent projects, one is the promotion of the console project and related games, and the other is the preparation for the mid-year invitational competition."
"Um."
Zhong Xiu nodded: "But it's useless to worry about the host project. Bao Liangzhe is still working on the vibration plan, and Zhu Nianqiao is also working on those somatosensory games... I guess it's still far away."
"So the most important thing right now is the mid-year invitational tournament and the quota competition."
Lin Yao nodded slightly, then looked at Nie Hui: "How is the competition going now?"
"The quota competition has reached the quarterfinals. After our free live broadcast, the effect is good, and the number of viewers is rising every day. So I plan to move the quarterfinals offline. These teams have already confirmed that they will participate in the league, so I think
Now let’s preview the league in advance to see how popular it is, and I’m already preparing.”
Nie Hui immediately replied: "As for overseas, I asked, and the regions where the game is launched have already determined the participating teams for the mid-year invitational tournament. Almost all of them are from internal competitions. We have given a lot of bonuses, so the competition is very fierce.
fierce."
"Is the league possible?"
Lin Yao blinked and asked immediately.
"Hard to say."
Nie Hui hesitated for a moment and shook his head slightly: "This time our "Witch" is too popular, and even the popularity of the competition has been affected to a certain extent. Overseas clubs are also a little worried, so I suggest that we should run the domestic league.
Besides, as long as domestic leagues prove to have commercial value, there should be much less resistance for major competition regions to organize leagues."
"All right……"
Lin Yao sighed, this matter really cannot be rushed.
"Then let's do this. The top eight of the 'Quota Competition' will start offline. As a preview of the league, the mid-year invitational tournament will officially start in mid-July!"
"good."
Nie Hui responded with a smile, and then said: "But I have a question, boss, the event song you mentioned..."
"I'm getting ready. It will definitely come out before the mid-year invitational tournament. I'll just keep an eye on it from here."
Lin Yao shook her head: "Don't worry."
"OK."
"Then there's nothing going on in the production department...Miss Mu."
Seeing that there were no other questions, Lin Yao turned to look at Mu Wanqing.
The next step is not about production.
So the person responsible for speaking is not her.
Mu Wanqing met Lin Yao's gaze, coughed lightly, and then began to talk about the revenue of "Witch", the situation of various departments, and the construction status of Linmu Studio headquarters.
A lot of things.
Although the production department has a lot to do.
But other departments that support the production department also have a lot of things going on.
However, everyone is quite relaxed today.
Although there are many things.
But there was a smile on his face.
Because the results of "The Witch" are really... great!
As soon as Mu Wanqing reported the sales volume and income, everyone in the conference room laughed.
One billion!
Pure game sales revenue exceeded one billion.
Although compared to the income from online games, this number may not be much.
But this is Linmu Studio’s first stand-alone masterpiece, and it has such an income. This is just pure game sales income, not counting the value of game IP and derivative products.
And this game is so popular now.
The value derived from derivatives.
It might be higher than game sales revenue.
How could these core staff from Linmu Studio and Yourongyan be unhappy?
And finally.
Mu Wanqing also said something that made Lin Yao dumbfounded.
"In addition, many brokerage companies have called me to inquire about our studio's next plans. They want their artists to participate in our games..."
As soon as Mu Wanqing said these words.
Everyone in the conference room laughed again.
A group of people began to joke about Versailles.
"It seems that the influence of witches is indeed great...someone came to visit me. At that time, Chen Qiuwen was still rejected when he approached someone."
"The main reason is that the overseas influence is large enough. I think many overseas players are deeply impressed by the male and female protagonists in "The Witch". If you can get such a big overseas reputation by participating in the game, I would be very excited."
"Indeed, there is always a feeling that times have changed."
"It's not that times have changed, it's that we have led a trend."
Chen Qiuwen shook his head, looked around the conference room, and said with a smile: "Just wait, other game companies will probably announce their cooperation with artists to develop games soon. After all... there is a successful example."
"Then let them do it. Anyway, the final game will not be released without our platform."
"That is required!"
"If we make another big hit in the future, it will probably be easier to find artists, and maybe we can even hire more well-known artists."
"Times have really changed..."
"..."
Lin Yao looked at the core members of the studio who were starting to look crazy, and said with some humor: "Okay, don't be complacent, go out and work... Miss Mu, for those who come to inquire, just say that we have no new plans for the time being.
As for what others want to do, let others do it. It is also an attempt. This is a good thing and will only make the game market bigger and bigger... Let’s call it a night!”
Lin Yao spoke.
The staff who were in Versailles just now looked at each other and smiled, immediately stood up and went out to work.
Everyone is full of energy.
soon.
Everyone is gone.
As usual, Mu Wanqing stayed at the end.
Lin Yao, who was the fastest to escape, unexpectedly stayed until the end.
Mainly because she was very busy during this period and she hadn't teased Mu Wanqing for a long time.
I miss it a bit.
She stretched, then held her chin and looked at Mu Wanqing who was collecting information.
"What's wrong?" Mu Wanqing noticed her gaze and smiled softly.
"Um……"
Lin Yao glanced at Mu Wanqing's long black silk legs, short skirt, round hips, and white shirt with a slim waist. Finally, she looked at her face and suddenly said: "Actually, what kind of artist do you want? You can be the heroine in the next game."
That’s all, Miss Mu.”
Hearing this, Mu Wanqing was silent for a moment, then suddenly put down the information, turned around, pinched Lin Yao's face, and said angrily: "The heroine, right? If I become the heroine, then I will definitely let you be the hero!"
"Really? Are you sure?" Lin Yao's eyes lit up and she tilted her head and asked.
"..."
The girl with black stockings and glasses was instantly defeated.
I didn’t know how to answer, so I could only play shamelessly and scratch Lin Yao’s belly.
The two got into a fight again.
…
Next few days.
Things developed just as Chen Qiuwen expected.
Witch is on sale for the second week.
The heat continues to ferment.
See this situation.
soon.
The first competitor to follow the trend is here.
They announced that they would cooperate with a well-known artist to produce a stand-alone game.
Perhaps this game company is jealous of the popularity and revenue of "The Witch".
Perhaps the brokerage company is jealous of the traffic brought by the game.
Or maybe the two parties hit it off immediately.
In short.
The imitators do come.
However, Lin Yao didn't pay much attention to this matter.
Because the mid-year invitational tournament of MOBA games is about to begin.
She is busy working on the support song for the competition.
The day the game company announced the news.
Lin Yao is in the recording studio, preparing to record a song that she had prepared long ago.
