First, they announced a vibration technology that has unclear meaning in the eyes of many players.
Immediately afterwards.
It was also revealed that they are about to acquire two domestic studios.
These two studios.
The family is named Conglong.
The other one is called Xihan.
Not very famous.
But many experienced players have still heard of their name.
They are considered to be one of the earliest stand-alone studios in China and have produced many works, but they have always been tepid.
But this time they were acquired by Linmu Studio, which most old players are happy to hear.
After all, after the launch of "The Witch", Linmu Studio has become the well-deserved number one game company in China, whether others want to admit it or not.
They acquired two studios.
No matter how you think about it, it's a good thing.
This means that their scale is expanding, there will be more new games to play, and these oldest old studios in the country can also receive financial and technical support.
Kill three birds with one stone.
certainly.
There are good things and there are bad things.
Many players were very worried when they saw this news. Linmu Studio had changed from a dragon slayer to an evil dragon...
After all, it is nothing new for game companies to acquire other peers and small studios. Such operations are simply basic for some major overseas companies.
However, there are very few studios that are acquired and finally come to a happy ending.
Either they were disbanded, or the core personnel were gone, or the parent company only cared about games that could make profits. Many studios lost their independent creativity and fell into mediocrity as soon as they were acquired.
Just like Lin Yao's previous life.
Not many studios acquired by EA end well...
Even if it is a merger, the outcome will not be good, such as "I really have you, SQUARE"
SQUARE in ENI’.
The company that created the famous game IP of Final Fantasy seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit after merging with ENIX...
It is precisely because there are many bad things like Lin Yao's previous life here.
So many players are quite worried.
Linmu Studio will also become a studio crusher. Now it has acquired Conglong and Xihan Studios just for the sake of expansion...
This concern is not groundless.
The bloody past cases are there.
On the largest gaming forum in China.
Under the post that broke the news that Conglong and Xihan studios were about to be acquired, many players expressed this point.
"One thing to say, Linmu Studio is so technically strong, can Conglong and Xihan Studios really be integrated into it?"
"Even if they can integrate in, Linmu Studio will not give them money to let them develop..."
"I think these two studios will be drained, all the outstanding members will be removed, and then disbanded..."
"Routine operations at Gibb's!?"
"I have a friend who works in the building where Linmu Studio is located. Now the floors above the 13th floor are Linmu Studio. They haven't announced any new games recently. The staff is definitely enough. It's really like
Acquisition for acquisition’s sake.”
"Yeah, I'm a little worried that they will turn into evil dragons."
"Tianhu fell, Linmu Studio rose..."
"No, is Linmu Studio that bad?"
"..."
Regarding the acquisition.
Although the heat is not high.
But there is still discussion.
The heads of Conglong and Xihan studios were originally quite happy because they were acquired by Linmu Studio.
You can wait until they go to the forum.
Seeing the replies from the players in the front row, I immediately felt a little excited...
Although the words don't sound very nice, the replies from the previous players in the post still make some sense.
this day.
Neither of the two responsible persons slept well.
And the next day.
It was the day Lin Yao asked them to meet.
The two managers met Lin Yao in Lin Mu Studio anxiously.
Lin Yao was surprised to see two people in charge with dark circles under their eyes.
But he still greeted them politely.
then.
Lin Yao got straight to the point: "Although you two have just joined Linmu Studio and need time to adapt, Linmu Studio has recently adopted a very important strategy, so there may not be much time left for you to adapt. On this point, Miss Mu should follow
Did you say that?"
The two leaders nodded.
Lin Yao continued: "That's good, please forgive me... Let me talk about the arrangements. Within this week, I need two key leaders to come to the headquarters to familiarize themselves with the Blue Star engine of Linmu Studio."
When the two heard what Lin Yao said, they were immediately startled and looked at each other.
It’s not really necessary to transfer key personnel right after the acquisition...
Lin Yao didn't know what the two of them were thinking, so she thought to herself: "As for getting familiar with the engine... By the way, what I want to say next, please don't publish it for now."
Lin Yao warned them before talking about her plan.
…
That night.
The largest gaming forum in China.
The post about worrying about Lin Mu Studio becoming a dragon slayer is still up.
And during the evening rush hour of 8 or 9 o'clock, it was seen by more players.
But just when the players were discussing whether Linmu Studio would turn into a dragon.
A player posted a picture.
Those are the private accounts of the heads of Conglong and Xihan studios.
【I met Lin Yao today...fuck!!!】
[I really didn’t expect that...fuck!!]
The two managers coincidentally posted a message together around 6 p.m.
It can be seen from the dynamics of one of them.
Today they met Lin Yao.
But they didn't say anything.
It's just a sentence, with a lot of exclamation points at the end.
Players who were originally discussing whether Linmu Studio would turn into a dragon were instantly confused.
What happened?
Why post updates at the same time?
He seemed very shocked...
Has Linmu Studio really turned into a dragon?
It doesn't look like it...
They asked the player who posted the picture, but that player didn't know either.
So many people went to social software and directly asked the heads of the two studios.
The two managers saw the rising number of comments and wanted to say something.
I really want to tell the players loudly what I have experienced today and what I will do next.
But they can't say.
Because Lin Yao asked them not to announce it yet.
They can only hold it in.
Players couldn’t get answers on social media, and they became even more curious.
What?
What on earth happened!
But soon.
They couldn't care less about it.
Because on the forum, an even more important news about Lin Mu Studio was revealed.
The poster claimed to work in a famous power supply factory.
During this time, their factory received an order.
Although this order was requested by Linmu Financial Holdings, he happened to be accompanying the business receptionist, so he made some inquiries.
It was learned that although this batch of orders was ordered by Linmu Financial Holdings, the purchasing staff of Linmu Financial Holdings revealed that this was actually requested by Linmu Studio!
Linmu Studio wants to order power supplies.
Why would a gaming company order power supplies?
The only possibility is that Linmu Studio will make hardware...
Game companies make hardware...
What can be done?
Regarding this.
The owner of the post made a bold guess.
Linmu Studio.
Might be a host!
This post, unlike the previous gossip, has evidence, so as soon as the post came out, it was combined with the reactions of the heads of the two studios that had just been acquired by Linmu Studio...
The player reacted suddenly.
Post replies surged.
In an instant, one stone stirred up a thousand waves!
