Chapter 741 How do you lose if you fight one out of four? A face wins!
NetDragon Games, Ma Lei’s office.
The office is not too big, with a table filled with various documents, and there are three people on the sofa in the office besides Ma Lei.
Ethan of Epike Games, Ding Teng of Tenghua Games, and Chen Qiao of Phoenix Games.
They are all important figures in the game circle.
Today they gathered together to discuss how to deal with Nebula Games. The video conference before this could only be considered a bottom-up.
The choice of the location is set for NetDragon Games, which is not to say that NetDragon is the leader in their alliance, but just as Ma Lei said in a video conference before.
Their NetDragon Games are the channels and technologies that people who know Nebula Games best know, and even make Nebula Games famous. These are the ones that NetDragon and others provided to Nebula Games in the early days.
On the other hand, NetDragon suffered the least losses when facing Nebula Games. Although several of its consecutive projects were also hit by Nebula Games, their performance was still OK.
At least compared to the Apike game that was crushed three times in a row, it is simply too good to be better.
Just like a teacher, Ding Lei stood there and told the other three people about his views and experience.
…………
In the third week after the release of "Bloodborne", the popularity of "Bloodborne" has also begun to decline.
Of course, what is reduced is not the popularity of players' discussions, but sales.
In the third week, "Bloodborne" had officially fallen out of the top ten sales rankings, ranking eleventh.
This situation is not very surprising, because games like "Bloodborne Curse" do have certain requirements for players.
There will even be more players who like to watch rather than play, which is also caused by the characteristics of the game itself.
Compared with other games, as word of mouth spreads, more and more new players are entering. The chances of games like "Bloodborne Curse" relying on word of mouth to attract players to the trap are not very high.
Unless the game has entered the discount stage after a long period of time and the discount is relatively strong, it can be said that it is very difficult to drive game sales with reputation in general.
Therefore, it is not surprising that "Bloodborne Curse" fell out of the top ten sales list during the third week of its launch.
The only surprising thing is that the game ranked tenth on the list is actually the old face of everyone: "GTA"
Why did this game come up again without realizing it? Didn’t it fall out of the top ten list a while ago?
Looking at this familiar game name, all game media and manufacturers were speechless.
Who is still buying this game?
However, shortly after this feeling came out, an even more surprising news was released.
Apike Games announced that it has reached a strategic cooperation with three game manufacturers in China to share relevant channel resources and content resources.
Three majors including NetDragon, which has been deposited in China for a period of time, also jointly released the latest news.
Of course, this news feels like an earthquake for major manufacturers and media in the game industry, but it actually has little impact on players. But the second news released by Aipek after that was to cause a stir among the player group.
In addition, Apike Games announced that NetDragon, Tenghua, Phoenix and other related teams will assist in completing the development of "Divine Fallen" and let it go online as soon as possible.
With the news coming out, the players were instantly dissatisfied.
‘Damn it, I was shocked!’
‘Same, I was shocked too!’
'I just said why there has been no movement in the three major countries? Feelings are holding up their ultimate moves!'
‘Neiyun Games feels bad this time!’
‘So cruel! Three industry giants actually joined forces! My God!’
‘To be honest, that is, Nebula Games can force them to this point, right?’
‘I don’t bother to think about other things, but this means that “The Death of God” will come out soon? I want to see which one is stronger or one is weaker than “The Curse of Blood”!’
‘By the way, I feel that Apike Games and the three major players have all been hammered by Nebula Games? I feel like there is nothing to do with several companies this time, right?’
‘You can’t say that. You have to know that three cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang, not to mention that Aipek and NetDragon are not cobblers. Who is the most serious about the four companies?’
With the news coming out, online players also began to discuss heated discussions. Although most players are optimistic about Nebula Games, the cooperation between Aipek and NetDragon is really surprising.
Even after the news came out, the market value of UEgame dropped a lot on that day.
What's going on? What's going on! We did nothing!
In one day, UEgame Rigresen, who had evaporated hundreds of billions of dollars, lost his previous sarcastic Ethan's happiness, and he was speechless.
What we have to deal with is not their UEgame. What we are dealing with is obviously Nebula Game. If our UEgame is targeted with our UEgame, will it not be favored by those people on Wall Street?
It's really outrageous! I mean, without Nebula Game, our UEgame will be hung up and hammered?
Haven't you read the latest financial report?
The business interests related to Nebula Games only account for about 15% of the total revenue. Although the relationship with Nebula Games is very important to UEgame, what does this mean? It seems that our UEgame will collapse without Nebula Games.
What do you mean by brother!
However, although he was terrified, Grayson contacted Yang Chen as soon as possible.
The qi is returned to the air, but the thighs that should be held should not be loose.
…………
Looking at the phone call from Grayson, Yang Chen, who had just finished an internal meeting in Nebula Games, was also a little speechless.
After Apike Games and NetDragon established a partnership with the three major players, including Xu Yu, who placed his main experiences on the peripheral toys of third-party under Nebula Games and the IP shaping, they temporarily returned from Shang Hai to the Nebula Games headquarters to discuss with Yang Chen in person.
However, compared to the nervousness of others, Yang Chen himself did not feel much nervous at all.
It sounds like Epike Games and NetDragon join forces, and it feels very awesome.
But for Yang Chen, there is actually not much difference.
A more important point is game development. If you have a lot of resources, you can indeed greatly improve your progress.
The ability of Nebula Games to maintain such high productivity has a lot to do with the clear direction of a game in Yang Chenzhong's dream memory, but with the same large amount of resources, the outsourcing team brought by the same outsourcing team is also an indispensable help.
But the problem is that Yang Chen can use a large number of outsourcing teams to advance the progress, which is based on the premise of determining the direction.
Just like building a car, the entire car has been designed, tires, various gear parts, etc., just need to build each part and assemble it.
But if you don’t have drawings, even if you have more workers to make parts, what’s the use?
This is not a fight against Warcraft. You can win by hitting one A-face. No matter how much resources you have, you can basically complete the external parts such as art modeling.
But the entire core gameplay of the game is not that the more people participate in it, the more fun the game will be.
"But, what exactly did Epike Game think? Shouldn't your enemy be UEgame? What should I do when I stare at our Nebula Game?" Looking at the news online, Yang Chen was a little helpless.
Although I am not afraid of competition, it is always a bit uncomfortable to be targeted!
And the key is that everyone knows that Epike’s “mortal enemy” is UEgame. Have you found the wrong partner?
Chapter completed!
