Chapter 76: Two new games

Views:

Looking at the confused staff, Chen Xu smiled and did not explain anything.

Chen Xu naturally had a reason for such a request.

And this is related to one of the two games that Chen Xu will make next.

After confirming some basic matters with the staff, Chen Xu planned to go to the canteen area at the exhibition to order a meal, deal with it casually, and then drive to the company.

At this time, a somewhat familiar voice came from behind: "Chen Xu, your Nebula Games also participated in this gameplay exhibition!"

Chen Xu turned around and glanced at Meng Zuo, whom he met once during the science fiction tour last year.

When NetDragon wanted to acquire Nebula Games, it was Chen Xu who came forward to contact them.

"Yes, I was invited to participate." Chen Xu smiled and nodded.

"The performance of "Kitchen Kitchen" is very good, especially the new version updated by the creative workshop, which is a stroke of genius." Meng Zuo had a smile on his face and was full of commercial praise.

Listening to Meng Zuo's words, Chen Xu was stunned for a moment, not understanding why the other party was so enthusiastic.

Subconsciously, Chen Xu also wanted to push each other back in business.

After all, if someone compliments you, you have to retaliate, right

But as soon as the idea came up, Chen Xu discovered something slightly embarrassing, that is, he had not paid any attention to any games developed by the other party after the previous sci-fi expedition.

"Well... the same goes for Teacher Meng! The third chapter of "Galaxy Heroes" performed very well!" Chen Xu paused for two or three seconds and boasted with a smile.

These words were so familiar, as if he had heard them somewhere before. Meng Zuo was stunned for a moment before he realized what he said.

etc! Isn't this what the other party said to him during the Sci-Fi Travel Competition last year

After half a year, your impression of me is still the same!

You must know that in the past few months, he lost to "To the Moon" in the Sci-Fi Expedition. It can be said that he learned from the painful experience and wanted to avenge that "one stone with one stone" all the time.

Even before, NetDragon's investment department came to him and hoped that he could contact Nebula Games to discuss the intention of acquisition, which made him feel uncomfortable.

After all, even at that time, he had already successfully participated in and been responsible for a major project under NetDragon by virtue of his qualifications of winning the second prize in the previous science fiction tour.

But if Nebula Games is acquired, will everyone become colleagues

And the more critical point is that when Nebula Games is acquired as a subsidiary of NetDragon, the other party will have more freedom than him in terms of status and resources.

But fortunately, this acquisition failed in the end because the two parties could not reach a consensus.

In his mind, he had imagined countless meetings.

I have thought about how to speak, how to raise the topic, and what tone to use.

But the most uncomfortable thing is that you regard one person as your enemy, but the other person doesn't take you to heart at all.

'Today you are indifferent to me, but tomorrow I will shock you! '

Meng Zuo silently encouraged himself and looked at the exhibition area.

"This is Mr. Chen's company's exhibition area, okay! Is this the largest independent game area?" Meng Zuo said with a surprised expression.

"It's okay." Chen Xu smiled politely and nodded.

"By the way, I would like to ask, will Mr. Chen and Nebula Games bring new projects to the exhibition this time?" Meng Zuo asked.

"Based on the progress, there will be two games that will be open to players for trial play during the exhibition." These are not secrets that cannot be revealed. After all, the exhibition is only two months away, and they will all be made public by then. Yes, so Chen Xu simply said a few words.

"That's it. Then I will be the first to experience your new game, Mr. Chen." Meng Zuo expressed his anticipation with a smile on his face.

"Welcome, does Teacher Meng have a new work this time?" Chen Xu said.

Meng Zuo looked calm and indifferent on the surface, with a smile: "Yes, I have been responsible for a big project under NetDragon during this period, and this exhibition is mainly for this project."

After a hearty conversation, the two of them stayed there for about ten minutes before they separated.

When he walked outside the venue, Chen Xu turned around and looked at Meng Zuo, who was still waving his hand at him with a smile on his face, feeling a little curious in his heart.

This man is too enthusiastic.

Are you really his loyal fan

Meng Zuo in the exhibition hall was also filled with emotion.

"Well, although I really want to have a showdown with Chen Xu, this is a completely unfair confrontation. The highlight of this exhibition must be focused on our NetDragon."

"Two new games? We may have to face a tortuous road to launch." Meng Zuo sighed.

In the past few months, he had thought many times in his mind about what kind of attitude he could use to wash away the regret of losing the first prize in the tour when he saw Chen Xu.

But now, he sympathized with Chen Xu.

It was my first time to participate in such a large-scale exhibition, and I spent a lot of effort preparing two new works, just to stand out at the exhibition.

But bad luck happened, and they happened to encounter NetDragon, which was eyeing this exhibition, and Tenghua also wanted to make big moves.

The war between the two industry giants has affected Chiyu.

Time is also destiny!

… … …

I have no idea what is going on in someone's mind.

After leaving the exhibition hall, we had lunch.

In the afternoon, Chen Xu drove back to Nebula Games, and then began to write the design concept drafts for the next two games.

The next two games Chen Xu is planning to produce.

A strategy card board game with the background of the Three Kingdoms, a variety show type game.

"Three Kingdoms" and "Jelly Bean Man".

Among them, "Three Kingdoms" can be said to be the simplest from a development perspective.

Because the core of this game is the gameplay and numerical values, even Chen Xu in this game knows all the numerical values without going through the memory capsule.

As for the other "Jelly Bean Man", many players in the previous life called it a battle royale.

In fact, apart from the fact that there is only one winner in the end, this game has nothing to do with the elements of battle royale.

And if there is a game with only one winner, it is the battle royale game.

That covers too many aspects.

Strictly speaking, this is a variety show-type game suitable for all ages.

And in the parallel world, many local satellite TVs have similar breakthrough programs.

This naturally also adds some advantages to "Jelly Bean Man".

Chen Xu also made some considerations when choosing these two games.

After all, after "Kitchen", if you want to stabilize the users of the Nebula gaming platform, the most direct and effective way is to continue to launch corresponding multiplayer games on the platform.

The two games "Three Kingdoms" and "Jelly Bean Man" are very consistent with its characteristics.

As for "Three Kingdoms", it was born 13 years ago from the online game. During this period, due to various tricks of the game card, it still has a large market, and it can occasionally reach the sales volume of the app store in its previous life, which shows its tenacious vitality.

As for "Jelly Bean Man", it is actually the same as "Kitchen" in that it cannot guarantee the continuous operation of fresh versions.

This is a fast-food hot tour.

But this is not derogatory. You must know that if you want to become a fast-food hot game, not every game can do it.

At the same time, this game can be said to be very appropriate for the current Nebula gaming platform.

In terms of commercial performance, this is such a game. In its previous life, the single-platform Steam sales exceeded 10 million in the first month. Although times make heroes.

The variety show itself has a somewhat outdoor nature, and the world was caught in the epidemic at the time. The emotional environment has a certain influence.

But the fundamental reason is that its games have distinct characteristics and there are no similar competing products on the market. It can be said to be unique.

In addition, there is another important reason for choosing this game.

That's why Chen Xu felt that he needed to improve his impression in the minds of players.

One is "Escape" and the other is "Kitchen", although it is a big hit.

But his reputation has been somewhat persecuted!

Harvesting players' emotional points cannot rely solely on resentment.

You can't dig out the roots of leeks.

So now is the time to bring a truly joyful game.
