Chapter 25: A qualified author must break chapters reasonably
The first crisis comes from the threat of Aurora Games acquiring a stake in the company.
When Xiao Chunan saw that his studio, which he had worked so hard to revive, was about to be acquired!
"Investing in Chunan Technology?"
"And you want to put your Aurora Games logo on our first two games?"
"Does that mean we have to share a portion of our profits with you?"
As he wrote this, Shen Huaizhou's eyes lit up instantly!
Sure enough, it feels great to drag a big company into being the villain.
"In other words, after Aurora invests in our Chunan Technology, all future games will have Aurora's influence."
"From the moment we invested, we had to submit a project plan for your review before we were even eligible to develop any games?"
"Dude, what are you guys thinking?"
This chapter is packed with emotion.
After writing six thousand words, I finally stopped just before my emotions were about to explode.
The character of the male lead, Xiao Chunan, has been completely solidified.
A man who wanted to give up but created a hit game and refused to be authoritarian!
As for the female lead?
The female protagonist is still the financial director of the investment return system, and the game where she makes money repeatedly is driving her to the brink of collapse.
"OK, all done!"
"When emotions are about to explode, you can just stop right here."
"That's what you call a reasonable break in the text."
"A qualified novelist should learn to stretch the story, and then wait for the readers to criticize it."
As for what happened next, there was a tug-of-war between Xiao Chunan and Aurora Games.
Then I'll write it in the next round.
After writing it, I uploaded it, and the popularity value shop was immediately visible.
A completely new screen has appeared!
Human: Fall Flat (Multilingual Version): 799/800
Yoho!
After uploading the chapter, Shen Huaizhou picked up the cola on the table and took a sip.
Don't say the boss doesn't drink Coke.
Compared to being called a boss, I, Shen, much prefer you to call me a great author!
Although it's only LV1.
He sat back in his office chair, sipping his cola while watching his fans jokingly call him a prophet.
Anyone who doubts that they are the producer themselves, block them all!!
Pshaw, of course it's fake.
These aren't just readers; they're like our own upright officials.
Shen Huaizhou opened his author assistant backend and saw that his chapter had been published.
Immediately, many more comments appeared.
"Forehead……"
However, few of these comments praised him; most were criticisms.
Especially an IP address located in the Guangdong region.
They look down on others and point fingers in their own comment sections.
[Cola Chicken Wings: What era are we living in? There are still people who consider Tencent a competitor? Has the author never written a book? Don't you know that the platform you're reading is Tencent's first entertainment subsidiary?]
[Cola Chicken Wings: Also, if you're going to plagiarize and write about game development, at least you should understand the most basic design concepts and production methods of games, okay?]
[Cola Chicken Wings: Don't think you're a game developer just because you copied two newly released games. At least learn what an engine is first, okay?]
Sure enough, a few readers actually showed up under this comment.
However, it was unclear whether it was Shumo or a hater.
"Pah! You don't know anything. I came here to read novels, not to watch games."
Hey! Another expert's here. The most interesting part of this novel is the comments section.
[Hey bro, are you an expert too?]
[An expert, my foot! There was already an expert mentioned earlier who has now become the book's top advocate.]
Soon after, a picture of cola chicken wings was posted in the comments section.
That was a game proposal, but it was just the cover art.
And the trophies he has won in several game design competitions.
[Cola Chicken Wings: This is me. I have won several awards in independent game design competitions and currently work at a game studio under Black Dragon.]
[Cola Chicken Wings: Do I now have the right to review this novel?]
[Cola Chicken Wings: Laymen read this book for entertainment, but I read it to understand the author's thought process.]
Shen Huaizhou was taken aback.
I opened the picture, took a closer look at the trophies behind him, and smiled.
"Holy crap, we actually ran into the designer of the Black Dragon?"
"Cola chicken wings..."
"Not familiar with..."
Shen Huaizhou stared at the name for a long time, but still couldn't remember where he had heard it before.
……
"Insomnia Games? Digging to the Top, The Binding of Isaac?"
"What is this thing?!"
The loud bang made all the staff outside the conference room turn around and look!
This outrageous sales report enraged the man in front of him, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses!
The report that the general operations manager of Aurora Studio was holding was handed to him by the marketing department.
"A tiny studio!"
"How did they manage to beat the IP we've been operating for three years?"
"Tribes & Clash! This PVP MOBA game has been running for three years and has consistently ranked number one on the sales charts!"
"How could we let two trash games from a tiny studio get pushed out of the top spot!"
"This game, 'Getting Over It,' sold 100,000 copies in just one week! Sales reached a million!"
"The head of the Steam Engine Platform's East China region is going to interview the producer of this studio?"
"And also, this Isaac!"
"It was only released yesterday! In just one night! How did it sell over eight thousand copies?!"
Each of the game studios under Black Dragon has its own KPIs.
If we can't finish it, then this game is doomed.
"Tribes and Wars" is a PVP-type MOBA game, and it is the first game designed by Hu Chen since his debut.
In just three short years, it swept through the entire Donghuang region.
He even single-handedly revitalized the domestic e-sports market in Donghuang.
But now... Hu Chen is scrolling through his phone, reading a novel.
He paid no attention to the rage of those who were incompetent in their operations.
As a game producer, he treats each of his games as his own child.
But he also has dreams, and he wants to create multiple hit games.
Yes, for the company and for operations.
Rather than developing a game whose future value is uncertain, it's better to focus on managing the tribes and wars in the present.
Watching helplessly as my own child becomes a fool who spends six yuan on the first game purchase.
Hu Chen had already started to give up long ago.
As a result, Tribes and Wars is getting worse year by year.
But Hu Chen was too lazy to say anything.
"Oh, I see."
"Well, Mr. Chen, is there anything else? If not, I'll head back to my workstation."
"There are still a few bugs in Clash of Clans that haven't been fixed."
"I'm gone."
