Chapter 287 It's All Here, It's Not Easy, New Year's Eve
"Out of the car, the interview was very successful. You have been published in the daily newspaper at such a young age. Recently, some of my old friends are talking about you..."
"Vaulting horse, it's fine if you don't say 呵, I'm afraid that any sentence is inappropriate..."
"If you say it, you won't be able to make it into the newspaper..."
"Let's revise the manuscript, besides, you still have this..."
"Hahaha, you've been a thief, you've been a thief..."
"By the way, speaking of publishing in the newspaper, I have something I want to ask you about today..."
"..."
It's the weekend again!
As usual, Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao came to see Old Comrade Shen for dinner.
As the first round of peak eight challenges of "Peak Nation" entered the regular map pool, Steel Chain Finger also began to plan a new round of peak eight challenge locations.
As for the golden experience, after Gu Sheng issued the plan for "Overwatch", the production of the game started intensively.
In fact, for Jiang Yun and his team, the production of this game is not difficult.
After all, it is the production team of old-fashioned shooting games, although this time the game design canceled their best second-generation FPS settings, and enabled the old-school virtual front sight.
But after all, the foundation of making shooting games is there. The golden experience team that has experienced the production of many shooting games such as "Left 4 Dead", "PUBG", and "Titanfall" has rich experience and can shoot well with closed eyes.
In terms of the game form, they not only have experience in the production of skills + shooting games such as "APEX", but also have accumulated experience in the production of game modes such as "Garden Wars".
It can be said that with these accumulations, coupled with Gu Sheng's meticulous planning, it should not be a big problem to reproduce the glory of the summer of 2016 in his previous life.
And after everything is arranged properly.
Finally, Gu Sheng had time, so he came to visit Lao Shen for tea, dinner, and chess.
In fact, in terms of frequency, with the opening of the steel chain fingers, the number of times Gu Sheng came to play chess with Lao Shen was not as many as before.
Before Golden Wind hadn't completely stepped into the world, there was only one studio, and he had a lot of time, basically coming every week.
Today, he only comes once every two weeks or so.
but.
Somehow, maybe distance really produces beauty.
The less the number of visits, the closer the relationship between him and Lao Shen.
From the rigidity at the beginning, to the relaxation later, and now playing chess with Lao Shen cross-legged by himself.
The steadfastness and warmth that had never been experienced before gradually took root in Gu Sheng's heart.
As for Shen Wanlin, in Gu Sheng's heart, he has gradually become old Comrade Shen from the very beginning, the helm of Shen's Capital who was aloof and controlled the huge capital empire.
"General!"
Snapped.
Following Gu Sheng's Hong Zi, he went down to kill Shen Wanlin's defense line.
Shen Wanlin was dumbfounded, as if he hadn't noticed Gu Sheng's red car's secretiveness at all.
"...Hey, you've been a thief..."
Shen Wanlin opened his mouth, and the hand that put down the teacup was about to move.
"Hey! Uncle? It's fine if you say so, don't do it..."
Gu Sheng held down his car vigilantly, old Shen Huiqi didn't do it once or twice
At the beginning, it was quite upright, with the demeanor of a general who has no regrets.
But as the relationship between the two of them became closer, Lao Shen became less and less able to act.
Not only did he regret the game, but sometimes he would steal his chariots and cannons while he was going to refill his tea.
Highlight a 'bad spot'!
For this reason, Gu Sheng 'had to guard against'!
But at this moment, Shen Miaomiao who was on the side was even more vigilant, she jumped off the armrest of the sofa directly from Gu Sheng's side, hugged the chessboard, and protected the chess pieces in her arms:
"That's right, old man, you have something to say, what do you mean by reaching out?"
for a while.
Looking at the two little 'same enemies' on the opposite side, Lao Shen couldn't help but choked speechlessly, awkwardly in place.
The two sides 'confrontation'.
After a moment of stalemate, Shen Wanlin looked at Gu Sheng, then at his precious daughter who was elbowed to the South Pacific, and then turned his gaze to Gu Sheng.
Think for a moment!
A light cough!
Open your mouth slowly:
"Hiss—that's right, Ah Cheng, you just said you wanted to ask me something?"
"Why--???"
Hearing this, Shen Miaomiao widened her eyes:
"Dad! You don't talk about Wude a little bit!"
This old man actually wanted to use the question that old Gu wanted to ask as a bargaining chip, in exchange for a chance to regret the game!
Even though he was her own father, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but slandered in her heart that it was a three-way trick!
What's worse, when he turned his head to look at Gu Sheng, he saw that the old Gu Zheng was contemplating, as if he was thinking about the value of this bargaining chip!
"Hello……"
Shen Miaomiao was speechless:
"Can you two respect the chess game and this gentleman's sport?"
"hiss--"
Hearing this, Gu Sheng seemed to be enlightened, looked at Shen Miaomiao and nodded repeatedly:
"That's right, the so-called gentleman is magnanimous, and the villain is long-suffering!"
"Hey, right..."
After hearing Gu Cheng's words, Shen Miaomiao was satisfied, let go of her hand, stood up and patted Gu Sheng's shoulder.
Just about to say a compliment.
Then I heard Gu Sheng continue to say: "Playing chess is the six arts of a gentleman, you should treat it with an open mind, and you must not haggle over every detail!"
Say it.
Seeing Gu Sheng leaning forward, he withdrew the red car to its original position, and pushed the soldier:
"Gongzu! Uncle, please!"
Shen Miaomiao: ...
ah?
What do I mean? !
After wanting to speak and then stopping, Shen Miaomiao stomped her feet angrily, looked up to the sky and sighed:
"Shameless! Shameless! I don't use Dumbo's move now! You... tsk... hey...!!!"
Long sigh!
Shen Miaomiao stomped her feet and went to wash the fruits, only the two of them were left laughing on both sides of the chessboard.
just laugh.
Shen Wanlin also waved his hands, and the two looked serious.
Yes, it was just a game of chess, and the two of them were just using an excuse to start a conversation.
As for who wins and who loses, no one cares, and it doesn't matter to them at all.
Gu Sheng said, "The Tencel bull from Siam came to us this week to discuss cooperation..."
...
good.
Just this Friday, Matt, the chairman of Tencel Bull Group, and Xu Zhixing, the CEO, visited at the same time, and opened the first round of cooperation negotiations with Golden Wind.
For this, Shen Miaomiao naturally raised her hands to welcome it.
She was supposed to lose in "Peak Nation", but because of her cowardice, she didn't lose any money. She only got a one-hundred-dollar rebate of the charity amount, a total of over one hundred thousand dollars.
But now, the Tencel Group, which was also brokered by Moriya Toru, came and wanted to cooperate with them.
Naturally, Shen Miaomiao gave a warm welcome.
After all, this is equivalent to sending her a spin-off project.
"So the specific form of cooperation is...?"
Shen Miaomiao was very concerned about this.
It's about her rebate form.
"Oh, that's right,"
Hearing this, Xu Zhixing said:
"Our preliminary plan here is to hold an event, which will be jointly funded by the two of us and share the promotional advertising space, so as to stimulate brand influence and create greater profits,"
"And, after that, we can also set up a competition specifically to make money as the organizer,"
"Even, in the form of co-branding, sponsoring athletes or groups of other related sports events,"
"In order to achieve greater profitability and publicity effect."
advertise.
To put it bluntly, the purpose of the cooperation method proposed by the Bulls is to advertise.
What makes a game profitable and what sponsors a sports group makes a profit.
It's all bullshit.
Pointing at those who make money is purely idiotic, and the investment is far higher than the income.
But about it!
Shen Miaomiao was very happy!
OK!
This is a purely advertising project!
It doesn't matter whether you advertise or not, the key is to spend money and lose money!
Where can I find this kind of wronged project?
Without thinking about it, Shen Miaomiao didn't intend to continue listening at all, she was about to nod on the spot, wishing to sign the contract immediately and start burning money!
But at this moment!
[Ding dong! 】
Suddenly, a crisp sound in his mind interrupted Shen Miaomiao's reckless charge——
[Detection of a new project form - publicity project]
[Do you want to view the details? 】
yeah?
Shen Miaomiao was taken aback.
You know, so far, her loss rebate system has only two types of project forms: [regular projects] [charity projects]
There is no need to mention conventional projects, starting at ten times, subdividing into main projects and derivative sub-projects, all of which can be realized by adjusting the number of days.
The charitable project is a special project type independent of the regular project. Depending on how much you donate, the rebate is 1% of the total donation.
But now.
With the cooperation of Tencel Bull, we will come to your door for negotiation.
The third project form is also unexpectedly unlocked: [Promotional project]
[Note: This project is an independent publicity project, mainly for brands, not for any conventional project or charity project alone, and is an investment project independent of "regular projects" and "charity projects"]
[Rebate form: Since the "publicity and distribution project" is mainly aimed at corporate brand power, the profit and loss judgment standard will also be judged based on the profit growth brought about by the publicity and distribution. If the profit growth is higher than the publicity cost within the specified time, the project investment is successful; if the profit growth is lower than the publicity cost within the specified time, the project investment fails. 】
hiss--
After seeing it, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but secretly smacked her lips.
Here comes a new way to play.
Sure enough, the system is not a fool. The system also has its own set of judgment criteria for such a project that burns money to gain fame.
It's a new thing, can you give it a try?
Anyway, there are still at least three or four months before the development of "Overwatch" is completed.
Taking advantage of this gap period, you can try this new form first.
After all, they came all the way from Siam, looking for cooperation sincerely, and it seems that Chinese New Year is almost here.
Come here, it's not easy, New Year's Eve...
There is no way to refuse this, okay? ! !
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao pondered for a while and asked:
"Then in the initial cooperation, what form will your company plan to promote? What is the estimated total investment?"
There is a door!
Hearing this, Matt and Xu Zhixing looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.
"Our initial plan was to organize a Ridge Challenge,"
As he said that, Xu Zhixing took out a piece of information from the materials at hand and presented it to Shen Miaomiao, obviously coming prepared:
"According to our incomplete survey and statistics, among the extreme sports in the world, bicycle downhill and skydiving are the two events with the largest number of people,"
"However, in terms of visual perception, the skydiving project is not as powerful as the rapid descent on the ridge,"
"So our side proposes to organize a global mountain downhill race, which will be held in Utah, USA, oh of course..."
Speaking of which.
Xu Zhixing added another point:
"Of course it's not the Devil's Ridge among the eight challenges of your company's peak. For safety reasons, we will choose a less difficult ridge for the competition,"
"The total prize money... is tentatively set at 300,000 knives, divided into the first, second and third places."
listen.
Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
It can be seen that for this cooperation, the Bulls have made a lot of preparations.
The sports form was selected, the challenge location was surveyed, and even the competition system and bonus levels were prepared.
That is, if their Golden Wind agrees.
[Golden Bull Joint Extreme Challenge] will begin immediately.
Tell the truth.
This is the cooperation that Gu Sheng yearns for.
but.
It is the only project he is currently unsure about.
After all, he's just a game designer.
As for the game, he has everything at his fingertips, whether it is the plan or the final benefit, in front of him who has the system and rich experience in his previous life, it is a predictable future.
But this joint challenge is different.
Strictly speaking, this thing has been out of the game industry.
If so, this would be their first out-of-game project so far for Golden Wind.
Although in his previous life, Red Bull relied on this "I pay for your life" form of publicity and distribution, from an unknown functional drink manufacturer to a well-known beverage giant all over the world, spanning extreme sports, rallying , F1, football, rugby, ice hockey and many other sports.
But in this life, he is not sure whether this form can be achieved.
And the most important point is - he has never done this kind of thing!
Think for a moment:
"What about the total investment?"
"About..."
Xu Zhiyuan submitted another report to Gu Sheng:
"About $7.6 million or so."
The voice has not yet fallen!
Shen Miaomiao exclaimed, "How much?!"
On the opposite side, Matt and Xu Zhiyuan were shocked!
"Uh...uh..."
Xu Zhiyuan opened his mouth, although in terms of age, he was more than a round older than the little girl in front of him.
But whether it was the little girl's illustrious military exploits or the Shen's capital standing behind her, he did not dare to underestimate this little girl.
He hesitated for a moment: "Seven hundred...about six hundred thousand dollars?"
"Tsk um..."
After confirming the number, Shen Miaomiao frowned.
What kind of broken project is this? Um?
Brother, did you make a mistake? !
We have invested a total of 101 million in "Peak Country"!
The purpose is to let players play their lives in the virtual somatosensory cabin!
But now!
The "Joint Challenge" you proposed is only 7.6 million knives for real people to play their lives to death?
The two of us split equally, 3.8 million knives for one family?
Do you dismiss extreme athletes as beggars?
Besides, if you do this, I will lose a lot of money for such a small amount of money!
I just lost to the limit, only 3.8 million, multiplied by 10 times, at best, it was 38 million dollars!
If I have time, I might as well make a game!
How can the cost of this activity be increased?
For a while, Shen Miaomiao frowned, and after a while, she slowly said, "My opinion is—"
