Almighty Game Designer

That's when Chen's phone rang.

At first glance, Chen Jiao Ho, one of his college iron buddies, called.

“Hello?”

Zhao Zihao's voice didn't sound right on the phone: “Chen Jiao, you guys can, game design champion? That's not even a word with my buddy. That's not funny! ”

Chen smiled and laughed: “I just settled in. It's too much. How do you know about this? ”

Zhao Zihao said: "Ask me how I know, you're going to fire! Your videos of the judges in the contest have been posted online! ”

Chen Qiao said, “Ah? ”

Zhao Zihao said: "Go see for yourself. By the way, do you have time for the evening? The three of us haven't gotten together much since graduation. Just this time, you got your status as a game designer, and you earned an experience store for nothing. This is no treat? ”

"'Yes, please,' said Chan. Then call Lin Mao too. ”

Zhao Zihao said: "Okay, that's settled. So, I'll pick up Lin Mao, and then I'll go straight to your experience store, and then we'll talk about what to eat. Four o'clock in the afternoon. ”

Chen Qiao said: "Okay, I'll see you soon. ”

In the memory of parallel worlds, Chen Yu had two very good brothers in college, three of whom were not in the same profession, but all entered the gaming industry.

Zhao Zihao is a rich second generation, the family seems to be in the traditional industry, the specific situation of Chen Jiao is not very clear, just know that this person is not very short of money.

However, Zhao Zihao is not a game designer, he has opened his own studio to be a game association, including but not limited to: leveling, gold playing, promotion of gaming channels, etc.

This company is not a big company, the salaries of its employees are not low, and all of them are good players, and the games are not collected if they play poorly.

These employees can basically be regarded as accompanying Zhao Zihao to play games, other jobs are incidental business, and no one cares if the company is losing money, anyway, Zhao Zihao himself is simply playing.

A while ago, Chen Qiao heard that Zhao Zihao wanted to start a club, but had not decided yet because of the investment.

Zhao Zihao himself has no shelves. He is completely unlike the rich second generation in a traditional concept. He has been thinking about playing games all day. When he went to college, he also used to make Internet cafes with Chen strangers. He was often called by another brother of Chen strangers, Mao Lin: “The body of the rich second generation, the heart of the loser. ”

And Chen Mao's other buddy, Lin Mao, like Chen Mao, is a game designer, and almost as soon as he graduated from college, he qualified as a D-level designer, and is now focusing on developing his own independent game.

Among these three people, Chen Jiao is a literary scholar, Zhao Zihao is a financial scholar, only Lin Mao graduated from the game design major of Zhenger Bajing.

Three people have known each other since freshman year in a gaming society at school, and have always had a very good relationship and are some of the few good friends who have never known each other in the world.

……

At noon, Chen Qiao went around the neighborhood to get acquainted with the surroundings of the experience shop, then found a small restaurant and ordered a dinner.

I pulled out my phone and watched the news.

Indeed, the game contest was covered in many media games, and there were a number of commentators involved.

"Game Design Competition Closes, 300,000 Bonuses and Experience Stores Who's Falling Down?"

"A Wonderful Bird Takes the Game Design Champion!

"The Live Audience: Feeling Like The Littlest Game Ever"

"700 Audience 350 Hour Game Length, This Game Is Toxic!

Judge Angry: Can This Be a Game?!

"Flappybird Designer: Judges Have No Objectivity"

The Founder of Hengyu Blows This Little Game Up in Heaven

Chen Jiao turned over the news and basically reproduced the scene of the competition, except that the media focused on Swartze and his argument, obviously trying to use this as a stunt and make the topic hot.

There are also live videos, Swartze's review sessions and Chan's final remarks, which are repeated and very popular.

Chen Jiao doesn't care about these things. It's good for him to have the media to help him get hot. The more players he knows, the lower the user cost of posting the game in the future, and save a lot of publicity expenses.

In this day and age, there is a term called attention economy, which also applies in the gaming industry.

The richer the information, the more precious the user's attention is: the same two games, one without anyone's attention, and the other one was already popular before it was launched, so that even if the latter were less of a quality, it would be far more profitable than the former.

If you have a fan base of 5,000 followers who follow your word, you can count on this fan base to support yourself, whether it's through Taobao stores, game channels, or any other way of realizing it.

At this point, Chen Yue noticed that an interview with Swartze appeared in a game media outlet.

On the scene, Swartze looked ugly and said to the camera: “What I said to this stranger Chen was an admonition in his capacity as a visitor, but he thought I was demeaning him. It was ridiculous. ”

“I still share the view that the gaming industry is an industry that requires a lot of good faith and accumulation. This Chen stranger cannot go far, and I don't think his next game will sell more than 100,000 in the first month. ”

Chen strangely smiled, this Swartze is really a tough duck, no matter what he was stuck in, he will not admit to losing.

Chen Shuai turned on Weibo silently.

His Twitter has been verified as a Designer and Design Competition Champion, and this information has been updated.

Chen Qiao forwarded the interview directly to Weibo and added a comment: "Don't you want something to eat?” Then @ a couple of game media official blogs.

Must be messing with me, huh? All right, buddy, I'm still with you!

Later, Chan's Weibo blew up!

Several gaming media officials discovered that Chen Qiao had actually responded and smelled “Big News" and forwarded it!

Gaming Information Network, SkyNet, WeChat Gaming Channels… even an executive of Emperor Dynasty Entertainment forwarded it!

With all this fuss, a lot of players noticed this Weibo of Chen Jiao!

“Chen Yu? Is this the champion of the design competition? ”

“In person? ”

“Definitely. Yeah, you see, there's real name authentication. ”

“Shit, what's this all about? Are you going to die? ”

“The boy's got character. I admire you! ”

“What does he mean by that? What does he want Swartze to eat? ”

“... upstairs, is your village connected to the Internet? ”

These players are getting high in a strange Weibo review.

Chen Qiao said, "Don't eat something” is actually a mystery, because people often predict online, then often add a “Don't eat Shang" or “Don't eat my mouse” to make gimmicks, etc., the food is very varied and strange, so many people will reply: "Don't eat something? ”

Chen Jiao said clearly: “Swartze, you said my first month of the next game won't break 100,000, what if it breaks? Aren't you going to eat something? ”

Soon, the forwarding and replies below this tweet will start to skyrocket, 100, 300, 500!

Besides, enthusiastic internet friends are still helping @ Swartjer, which is a big joke to watch.

Chen Qiao is much more calm than Swartze, and that doesn't make him worry about it. In fact, Chen Jiao is not averse to speculation. If speculation can bring attention to his next game, why not?

Soon Swartze replied: "Boring! ”

Chen Jiajoy, Swartze dared not gamble.

The comments below on Weibo sigh around the crowd, and others continue to stir up the wind, encourage Swartze and Chen to gamble, eat keyboards or even a mouse.

Swartzer simply pretended to be dead and never replied.

Chen smiled and put his phone away. It's nothing more than a little intrusion for him, and there's no need to worry about it.
