Chapter 224 Where does he get so much work? (Tonight, please subscribe)

The fate of Yang Junfei and his companions was already determined when their mentality changed after they came into contact with the headhunters and were then discovered by Lu Yao.

This is how the game is set up: either lead your opponent to make a mistake or wait for him to make a mistake.

The latter is often easier than the former.

Otherwise, the golden "Five-Word Mantra" would not be circulated in the business world in the future.

After producing the hard evidence that he had prepared long ago to prove the innocence of Shangnan Guang'an Online Game Company, Lu Yao stated on the stage that they would seriously investigate the false accusations made by Yang Junfei and others, and hold them accountable for the actual and reputational damage caused to the company.

Lu Yao's serious attitude on the stage made Yang Junfei, Yang Shuping and others who were watching the live broadcast pale.

They originally had a bright future, but a wrong decision made after they became arrogant led them into an irretrievable situation.

But their situation didn’t even attract attention for long, because after Lu Yao clarified the matter, he quickly continued on stage: “Although this public opinion incident was caused by rumors and slanders spread by our former employees, we, Nanguangan Online Game Company, still apologize for wasting social public resources.”

"At the same time, in order to make your trip worthwhile, I would like to take this opportunity to announce to you a game that we will be launching soon."

Ok?
As soon as Lu Yao finished speaking, the invited media reporters in the audience suddenly became excited again.

Still alive?
As expected, Mr. Lu is good at giving people surprises.

Do you think this is just a press conference tonight? No, it is actually a game conference.

Since the release of the hit game "She Le Ge She", Shangnan's Guang'an Online Games has already had a considerable influence in the gaming industry and even in the minds of young netizens, who are full of expectations for the games that Shangnan Guang'an will launch.

"Shoot It" is a game released in the second half of last year. It's only been a short time since then, and they are going to continue to release new games?

So what will it be this time?
The reporters present and even the business friends who were invited were all looking forward to it.

Because if the next game also becomes popular, Guangan Games' reputation will skyrocket, and its value in the business and investment circles will also increase.

After Lu Yao had fully mobilized the atmosphere on the scene, he raised his hand and clicked on the controller again: "Well, then, let's watch a practical demonstration of the game."

As soon as he finished speaking, the big screen behind Lu Yao first flashed the opening animation of Shangnan Guangan, and then the actual game demonstration.

Among the audience there were some relatively successful and older business people, but there were also quite a few young people. This group of young audience members couldn't help but frown as they watched the actual demonstration animation on the screen.

Because the game screen presented on the big screen on the stage is a very typical MOBA game map, but the heroes in the game map are completely different from the currently popular "League of Legends", or in other words, the heroes and even the style of this game are completely different from those of other current MOBA games.

The game content released by Lu Yao was obviously produced by themselves, with a younger and even more fashionable style.

There are a total of ten heroes in it, and their skills and mechanisms are completely different.

In terms of graphical expression and hero skill mechanisms, this MOBA game is indeed quite good, but it can also be seen that the modeling is a bit rough and not detailed enough, and even the special effects are not as sophisticated as those of "League of Legends".

After this live video ended, the lights at the scene brightened up again, and Lu Yao returned to the center of the podium from the side, but everyone's expressions were a little strange.

Lu Yao could even guess what everyone at the scene was thinking.

So he smiled and said, "Why do I feel that the atmosphere here is a bit strange? It seems that everyone has a lot of doubts. Let's discuss it. Does anyone have any questions?"

Driven by journalistic instinct, many reporters raised their hands.

Lu Yao randomly pointed to a journalist friend, and then the on-site staff immediately handed him the microphone.

After the reporter got the microphone, he said, "Hello, Mr. Lu. I am a reporter from Shangnan Finance News. My last name is Li."

Lu Yao greeted politely, "Hello, reporter Li."

Reporter Li continued, "I noticed that the actual machine demonstration video you just released showed a MOBA game, but now in the market, this track is dominated by Penguin's "League of Legends"."

"Even the previously popular Dota 2 was suppressed by League of Legends, so I really don't understand why you want to compete with League of Legends, which already has a mature operating system, in this track?"

The reporter thought for a moment and said boldly again: "What's more, judging from your actual game demo video, the game your company produced is not even as good as League of Legends in many aspects."

This is the voice of many audience members at the scene.

This is also the voice of many netizens who are watching this live broadcast.

By going head-on with Penguin over this, Lu Yao and his company are really looking for death.

But Zeng Lun, Chen Yu, and even Mr. Ren at home, who were also watching the live broadcast, all had their hearts skipped a beat, because they soon realized what Lu Yao was really going to do.

soon.

What Lu Yao said next on the stage confirmed the conjecture of the Penguin game developers.

After reporter Li handed over the microphone and sat down, Lu Yao smiled and said, "Well, what reporter Li said is very right. It is indeed difficult to compete with League of Legends. But if I say - our game is not a real-machine demo of a MOBA game on a computer."

"But what about the MOBA game demo on mobile?"

Wow! !

The scene suddenly became buzzing and chaotic, with sounds of people gasping for breath coming one after another.

Then Lu Yao pressed the controller in his hand again, and the previous actual game demonstration screen appeared again, but unlike the previous cropped screen, this time the game screen was complete.

The map and heroes on the big screen become smaller, but the game's control interface is also displayed.

That is an operating interface that is completely different from the PC game "League of Legends". On the left and right sides are operating discs similar to those in "Shoot Them", and on one side is a disc for controlling the direction, which looks very much like the direction keys on a game controller.

On the other side is the disc that controls the attack, and the hero's skills are arranged in a circle on the upper left side of the attack key disc.

This is the dual-wheel operating system that many mobile games will use later.

Initially, this was developed and designed by the Shanghai Douwu Online Game Company, but after Lu Yao felt that he had defeated the Penguin, he took the lead in registering the patent for the dual-roulette operating system. Although he was one step ahead of the Douwu Online Game Company, Lu Yao had nothing to feel guilty about.

Because this operating system was later copied and used by Penguin, Douwu Network even filed a lawsuit against Penguin.

But as for the result, no one has to guess.

After all, Penguin is the Pizza Hut in Nanshan.

In the end, Douwu Network even publicly apologized to Penguin... To put it bluntly, this thing was wasted in the hands of Douwu Network.

As for the MOBA mobile game "Freedom Fight" developed by Douwu Network, the popularity of this game did not even last for a year. It quickly declined and then became half-dead.

The reason for this is that the poor performance of Freedom Fight was certainly due to the impact of the later King of Glory, but this game itself also has a complex off-game development system, which leads to the lack of competitiveness in MOBA games. In addition, it later took the initiative to apologize to Penguin and ruined its reputation, so even the last rich players who spent money on the game quit the game out of disgust.

Therefore, Lu Yao even felt at ease about being the first to seize the patent.

So this thing is wasted in their hands, it would be better to let Lu Yao use it to make a dragon-slaying weapon.

The double-disc wheel design not only facilitates the release of directional skills, but also allows locking, thereby better releasing the skill mechanism characteristics of various heroes.

The game map appears in the upper right corner of the game, which will not affect the player's perspective and is also convenient for observation. The store is displayed with small icons.

Besides.

The painting style and map structure in the game are the art style after 2020.

The map has a very good overall quality and aesthetics. Both camps are like the traditional red and blue camps, with relatively regular routes, while the art style of the jungle area is full of wildness.

But apart from these superficial factors, Lu Yao also plagiarized a lot of designs from the future.

After Lu Yao finished introducing the superficial things on the stage, he began to explain the specific gameplay: "As the game progresses, the most important wild monster resources in the upper and lower parts of the game will also change over time."

"Each time you kill a legendary monster in the pit, it will grant different special effects to the player. Some will increase damage, some will restore health, some will increase movement speed, or a portal will appear on the map. Although the bonus of a single monster in the pit is not much, once the bonus accumulates to a certain level, the gain effect will be very considerable."

"After the legendary wild monsters in the Great Demon Pit are defeated, the team will gain all-round attribute improvements."

As Lu Yao continued to narrate, the screen showed the team defeating a legendary wild monster in the big demon pit and gaining a BUFF bonus.

The golden explosion special effect was added to the team, as if everyone had turned into a Super Saiyan.

This design is mainly to distinguish it from the Baron in League of Legends. If Penguin copies you, nothing will happen to Penguin; but if you copy Penguin's popular product... then you will definitely be in trouble.

In order to avoid the risk of plagiarism, the MOBA mobile game development team had to make compromises.

Then Lu Yao began to talk about the world view background of the game on the stage.

Creating world background and storytelling are Feng Ji and his team's strengths. Under their design, the world view of this MOBA mobile game is divided into two main camps, "Eastern Heaven" and "Western Realm", and the main camps are further divided into different factions.

However, Lu Yao kept the main origin of this world a secret and did not reveal it. He only said that the content in this regard will be gradually revealed as the heroes are updated.

Lu Yao only briefly talked about this part, and then began to introduce the skill mechanisms of some heroes in the game.

For example, Taibai, the swordsman who dances and rides his sword.

For example, the mad hunter Xuan Ce who wields a chain to chase his prey.

For example, the magic armor general who can be transformed by holding a magic knife. These are the heroes carefully designed by the future King of Glory, and they are deeply loved by players as soon as they are launched. These high-quality heroes were born in the future, but appeared in the present because of Lv Yao.

Lü Yao did not introduce too many heroes. He simply introduced a few and then stopped talking. Then he began to talk in front of the camera: "As the price of smartphones gets lower and lower, more and more people have phones with better performance."

“But there aren’t many games that people can play on their phones. Although our company launched Shoot the Shee, we still feel that Shoot the Shee is not enough to bring more happiness to everyone.”

Lu Yao spoke to the camera in a sincere tone, with a humble and even worried look: "So we want to make a game that can bring more happiness to everyone. Then we noticed the popular MOBA games at the moment."

“Here, I want to pay high tribute to League of Legends and Dota! Because they are indeed very good games and are also pioneers in the industry.”

"But unfortunately, the majority of gamers in China do not own computers, so this joy cannot be enjoyed by more people. Everyone thinks that what I said may be a bit exaggerated."

As he spoke, Lu Yao pressed the remote control again, and a report appeared on the big screen behind him.

The above shows that there are only about 5.1 million computer users in China, including laptop users. This statistical table comes from the PC ownership report of third-party market research institutions IDC and Gartner. Considering that some people may own multiple computer devices due to work needs, and some special groups may own more devices.

There may be even fewer independent computer users in China.

But how many smartphones were owned in China in 2015?

It’s about one billion.

A gap of more than double.

With his back to the two statistical tables, Lu Yao said: "In fact, computers are productivity tools for more people. The number of people who can enjoy playing games on computers may be much smaller."

"So, what should those netizens who can't afford a computer do? They also have the right to enjoy the joy brought by games."

"In fact, the equipment is not a big deal. I think what is really expensive is the time required to play games, or even the friends who play games with you. Because once everyone starts working, they no longer have more time to play games, but have to turn around and deal with life."

“So – time and friends became the highest configuration of the game.”

Lu Yao said sincerely.

And these words instantly penetrated the hearts of many adults.

Yes.

Among the many netizens who are watching the live broadcast, many are new workers who have just graduated from college and entered the society. They are also the group that is most concerned about the problem of workplace bullying. Therefore, among the netizens who are watching this live broadcast tonight, there are many new workers who have just worked for one or two years.

Lu Yao's words made them agree deeply.

In fact, many college students who graduated in 2015 already have their own laptops.

Even college students who come from poor and remote areas can buy themselves a laptop by working part-time during a few years of college.

Therefore, many college students who graduated in the last one or two years have played team economic games such as "League of Legends" and "CS". Even if they have graduated for a year or two, they still can't forget the joy of playing with roommates in the dormitory.

But as they enter society and start to keep up with the pace of the company, endless work, endless meetings and the boss's constant urging leave them with less and less time to play games.

Even for League of Legends, which is much simpler than Dota 2, a game still takes half an hour to complete. Although it doesn't sound like much, when you actually play it, you will feel that the time you have after getting home from get off work is not enough.

Not to mention having to work overtime occasionally.

In this situation, all the friends who used to play with me started to disappear online.

No one will rush you to "come online and try it out".

Life began to become more and more boring and numb.

When Lu Yao was giving this speech, he was thinking back to his experience studying abroad. At that time, he had just graduated, and his friends who used to play games with him frequently were online less and less.

Until later on, the friends I used to play with never came online again, and the names on my friend list were always grey... I really had a lot of emotions at that moment.

In order to make his speech more inspiring, Lu Yao re-enacted the feelings he had when studying abroad.

So the venue became exceptionally quiet and silent.

But Lu Yao’s output was not over yet.

He continued, "So we at Guang'an Online Games wanted to develop a MOBA game that can also be played on mobile phones, although there are some similar games on the market now."

For example, "Heroic War Song" and "Chaos in the West".

But these games all have one reason or another that makes them either not fun or not easy to play.

For example, "Chaos in the West" has a very complex and numerous off-game krypton gold systems. Who is strong and who is weak in the game depends on who spends more money outside the game. This was developed by NetEase and is also NetEase's traditional skill.

As for "Heroes' War Song", it is a high-quality game released in 2012. The quality of the game is very high, but initially it was almost exclusive to Apple users because the quality of Android phones in 2012 was so poor that they could not run this game at all.

Even in 2015, this game wasn’t very popular.

Because "Heroes of War" is a Dota-like game.

Lu Yao continued: "The game we developed has a faster pace and is easier to get started with. Most importantly, a game usually lasts more than ten minutes! While being easy to get started, we also retain the competitiveness of MOBA games."

"As long as the operation skills are good enough!"

As he spoke, the big screen behind Lu Yao began to show scenes of heroes showing amazing skills.

The sword fairy Taibai, who was singing and flying the sword, moved twice to unlock the sword, and then turned into sword shadows all over the sky; the Moon Goddess slashed the sword energy and then her body became like a shadow, shuttling and cruising to get five kills! The magic armor general flashed and used his ultimate to descend from the sky, fighting one against five!

One after another, the passionate scenes directly ignited many viewers in front of the screen.

Those new workers who had just graduated couldn't help but gasp when they saw the effect presented on the screen. The fighting spirit of the middle school students buried deep in their hearts... seemed to be burning at this moment.

It is the nature of most people to like playing games.

Being immature and childish are always the basic characteristics of men.

Therefore, there is no male psychology in psychology at all. Male psychology has been classified as child psychology.

This feeling is very easy to understand. Even an old cow or horse that has been domesticated by society for many years will be unable to move if it sees a very straight natural wooden stick on the road.

As a result, a barrage of comments instantly appeared in the live broadcast rooms of major media platforms:
"Fuck, this game is pretty good!"

"It's really cool to show off for more than ten minutes."

"No, no, no, when my jungle king soul awakens, I have the confidence to kill the game in ten minutes! Hehehe!"

"Wait, this game isn't going to be very expensive, is it? Don't be like the game Brawl in the West."

As if responding to questions on the Internet, Lu Yao continued, "In addition, we guarantee that the MOBA mobile game we developed is a fair 5V5 competitive mobile game. There will not be any bonuses from external props, and even the rune selection before entering the game is the same."

"Of course, different rune combinations will have different effects. It all depends on your understanding of the game."

As Lu Yao was talking, someone suddenly shouted, "Boss Lu! You haven't told us the name of this game yet!!"

The sudden shouting did not make Lu Yao angry. He smiled and said, "Let me tell you something. The name of our game is 'Honor of Kings'. The game will be launched on our official website after 12 o'clock tonight, and will also appear in the Xiaomi mobile phone app store."

“I hope everyone will give us lots of support. If our game is not good enough, I hope everyone will forgive us.”

He said nervously and anxiously on the stage: "Of course, if you think we are not doing well, please don't criticize us too much, okay? I, I beg you all for this."

Facing the camera, Lu Yao bowed deeply.

Such a humble and sincere attitude, coupled with the superb gaming quality demonstrated before, made the audience inside and outside the venue feel very happy.

Lu Yao!
Although he started out as a gigolo, he has made great success in Shangnan in the past two years and is now said to have a net worth of nearly 10 billion yuan.

A CEO with a net worth of tens of billions was so humble that he even bowed to them in order to allow more people to play a fair game... This is too much.

Then there was thunderous applause from the whole place.

The live broadcast rooms of major media platforms were also filled with thick comments:

"Damn it! I bow for this. Even if what Mr. Lu cooked is a pile of shit, I have to at least taste it."

"Actually, if you want to eat shit, just play "Chaos Westward Journey"."

"This game won't be bad just by watching the actual gameplay demo, okay?"

Many netizens complained: "Oh my god, I've been watching the live broadcast for so long, how come it's only just past eight o'clock? How the hell am I going to get through the remaining four hours? Brothers, I can't bear it!"

After seeing the grand occasion in the live broadcast room, the peers in the gaming industry all had question marks on their heads——

"Where the hell does he get so much work?"
