American Fortune Life
Chapter 1069: The Malice of Andy Smith
This year's big production of Twilight City Crescent, at its peak, is no stranger to all young Hollywood actors, and no matter how critical the outside world sounds about the novel, one thing cannot be ignored is its influence in the youth class.
If you look at the Little Wizards, you can see how easy this big IP can be to pick up a new guy and get his price to skyrocket, which is why the Twilight Searches make almost all the young actors in Hollywood feel like they're in the mood.
Andy did not interfere too much with the character selection of several stars in this election, after all, several actresses in his possession were more or less unusual in playing Isabella.
As for Jennifer Lawrence, even if the mirror passes and she's on the big list, Andy will reject her. The offense is too serious, so let her go straight to the Hunger Games.
Andy's only change was to add Lily, who was white, to the crew and cut off Alice Cullen's character, so small and cute that she was portrayed like an elf, that it fitted Lily's image perfectly.
And Lily is naturally very happy, and being able to perform Twilight is absolutely great news for her, and as for cutting short hair, well, that's not a problem at all.
Regardless of what the girls in the crew had in mind, two days later, Lily returned to the crew, becoming more lively and cheerful, and some of her thick eyebrows had been fully opened, no longer giving a sense of two eyebrows connected, but also bringing a message.
Andy's back in New York.
Like the wind, it came and went, filling Lily's body with free time and taking a kill with her...
On a private plane, the assistant sent coffee to the king, watching him with a smile on his face, and he couldn't help but spit in his heart.
The Great Demon King is now becoming more and more lethargic, and he is releasing more and more zeng. I really don't know how much more will be achieved in the future!
“Boss, Mr. Blair is online... ”
“Hmm?”
Andy, who was closing his eyes, opened his eyes and nodded softly, stood up from his seat, took the coffee handed over by his assistant, took a sip and walked into the superconference room on his private plane.
On the oversized LCD screen wall, Blair, CEO of Mockingjay Games, was already waiting. Andy smiled and greeted him, then sat down on the comfortable main seat, smiling at Blair in the LCD screen wall: “I heard you were all out of style at the E3 Game Show. Looks like The Soul of the Devil was a success. ”
Blair on the big screen of the video naturally heard the boss's tone, couldn't help but cry and shook his head, a helpless and proud look said: “Hey boss, if it weren't for you being the master of this game, I think this game would really be a big game, you don't know how ugly the faces of those players who tried to play it on the scene were, almost every time they tried to play it is cursed. ”
“Oh, the harder it is, the harder it is. Believe me, although the game is a little strange, the harder it is for the players to shake the M attribute, the harder it is for them to find guilt. They spit, curse, and shrug, but ultimately can't resist the unparalleled sense of accomplishment of cutting BOSS in the game.
Remember to keep up with the publicity. This game is difficult. If the publicity doesn't keep up, there is a real possibility of going to the streets. ”
Andy laughed very happily, and for being able to torture a player to death, it has now become a big joke for him.
“Understood, the marketing department of the company used ‘Andy Smith's malice’ as the propaganda theme for this game. It turned out to be surprisingly good. In just a dozen days, the North American region has already sold 150,000 copies, and the foot basin has reached 200,000 copies. Boss, it looks like your call is still strong. ”
After hearing Blair's fancy compliments, Andy couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, but he also knew that it wasn't all Blair's compliments on the horseplay. After all, after the baptism of his most malicious game of "Fool Birds First Fly," senior players around the world were still interested in challenging him to play Andy Smith's malicious game, which also became a hidden theme for the player world.
Andy also knew that the "Soul of the Devil" game would not be popular with the fast-food players. After all, it was too difficult to keep these people out of the door, but just form a topic that challenged Andy Smith's malice, mouth to mouth, reputation, those fast-food players would also buy a plate to go home and find abuse, otherwise how to mix the game circles.
What senior players love most is the games that no one else can play. He passes through that sense of accomplishment, and they show off, they brag, they communicate ideas, they send videos, they write tactics everywhere, and these original content attract more and more non-core players into the game circle of the Soul Series.
“Ha ha, looks like the company has got a good advertising project. Now that this game is successful, don't let the soul group idle and start the second Dark Soul.
Continue to follow and develop the tension of exploring the labyrinth, encountering the horror of the enemy, newly discovered joy, until survival to the final sense of accomplishment as the core elements of the game.
This time, however, a slight correction is made to remove the more difficult setting in the demon's soul to increase the audience of game players. It cannot always make too anti-human games, which will lose many players. After all, small white players shaking the M attribute also need to be cultivated. ”
Andy picked out his eyebrows, which he still attached great importance to developing a company's loyal player base, and iron powder bragging and pursuing in the game circle was also very important and a necessary folk force for a successful gaming company.
“Good boss, in fact, this is one of the main things I hope to report to the boss this time. The soul team still cares about the puke of the feedback game players. To be honest, they have been worried about screwing up the game. Fortunately, the sales are good, but they also want to reduce the difficulty of the second part. For each death, they can't stand the game settings that make the game more difficult.
Boss, you've been called an ‘old thief' in the Asian gaming world that players hate. ”
“Oh, whatever they say, as long as they pay for the company's games, don't talk about old thieves, they're little thieves, I admit it.” Andy was naturally very knowledgeable about Asian culture, and he laughed at the player's expression of a hateful, if somewhat derogatory, title.
Seeing that my big BOSS wasn't upset by what Blair seemed like a malicious nickname made me laugh and continue to report: “Before I met Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft's Xbox department at the E3 Game Show, he said Microsoft executives, including Bill Gates, favored My World and said they were willing to bid $1 billion to buy the game. ”
The smile on Andy's face grew faint, as if Blair had told me that the $1 billion takeover price was like $10, but instead asked with a smile: "Blair, can you tell me the sales figures for My World for the last week? ”
“Sales of new versions, more than 240,000 PC versions, more than 320,000 XBOX360 versions, PS3.7 million copies, totaling more than 1.27 million copies, of which the PS3 version accounts for 55%... ”
“You see, that's why Microsoft bought this game, and last year's" My World "game brought a net profit of $42 million to the company, although with the advent of the smartphone era, at a sale price of $6.99 for this game, how much profit would you say the mobile version would bring us?
A billion dollars? ”
Andy grinned twice, and the game had become a god in the eyes of global players, "There is a world, called the world of others.” It has become the oral meditation of many world players watching the official website video section, he Andy Smith is not a fool, how could he sell this money shaking tree to others!
In fact, Microsoft's idea of acquiring the game "My World" is nothing new anymore, and some people have mentioned it to him many times. He had met Bill Gates at a party before, and this guy mentioned how obsessed he was with the game "My World" and didn't miss the opportunity to offer Andy an acquisition offer, and Andy just looked at Bill Gates with a smile and not a smile, and then gave him two shouts from his mouth in response.
