Chen Mo said after some thought, "Oh, this game is the same as I Am MT, it's a form of 'creating happiness with your heart'. I think Onmyoji's success couldn't have happened without the support of the players. Obviously, the players are starting to understand the happiness I'm creating for them. "
Han Lu's mouth twitched. Chen Mo was still the same as before, not easy to deal with!
However, Han Lu wasn't worried as she was prepared.
"Some players say that the game is too dependent on probability, and that it's bad for unlucky players. What do you think about that?"
Chen Mo said, "Oh, it's like that. I think Onmyoji is fairer than I Am MT, "said Chen Mo.
Han Lu, "???"
She was shocked. What does that mean? You're saying it's fair when you spend so much money on a game like that?
Chen Mo saw her confusion and explained, "Look, in I Am MT, you can get stronger just by spending money, and the rich players have an advantage over the average players. But in Onmyoji, the rich players don't get stronger even if they spend money, and the average player can still get an SSR even if they don't spend money. As long as they put in the effort, the average player can beat the rich players. Doesn't that mean Onmyoji is a fairer game?"
Han Lu's eyes widened. She felt like something wasn't right, but couldn't refute it.
Why does it feel like Chen Mo makes sense?
Han Lu quickly pushed the thought out of her head and decided to look at it from a different angle.
"There were rumors that after Onmyoji became a hit, you gave all three of your assistants a bonus for 18 months, is that true?"
Chen Mo said, "Oh, I have to dispel that rumor, there's no such thing."
Han Lu nodded, "Yeah, I think it's a bit weird too. I might have believed it if it was five or six months of year-end bonuses."
Chen Mo paused before continuing, "It's easy to tell if it's fake since it's not the end of the year yet. I was actually giving out quarterly bonuses."
Han Lu was shocked, "Huh? Quarterly bonuses of eighteen months? "
Chen Mo nodded, "That's right, as you all know, Thunderbolt Entertainment has a philosophy of 'creating happiness with your heart'. I hope that every one of my employees can put their heart into designing games. Money isn't that important, it's our ideals and passion for games that unite us."
"This bonus is mainly to ensure their basic necessities. After all, life in the Imperial Capital is so stressful, and it's hard for them to follow me to make games …"
Before Chen Mo could finish his sentence, Han Lu was already on her knees. What the hell? The 18 months bonus was a quarterly bonus? Just to ensure the basic necessities?
Han Lu was shocked. "I want to ask if you're still hiring? The kind that studied in a key university. "
Chen Mo said, "Well, I don't really need helpers at the moment …"
Han Lu: "Sweeping the floor is fine too!"
Chen Mo laughed, "Well, there might be a recruitment plan in the near future, but the exact time hasn't been confirmed yet."
Han Lu nodded. "Ahem, okay. Let's move on to the next topic. "
"Everyone knows that you're the most profitable mobile game designer in the country. What do you think about making money? Is there any unique secret? "
Chen Mo said, "Oh, about that, I can't say that I'm making games just to make money. Making money is just something that happens along the way, you understand?"
Han Lu was shocked, "Something that happens along the way?"
Chen Mo nodded, "Yeah. Actually, making games is to make the players happy, to create value for society, and for art. Most of the time I'm not making money, I'm losing money."
Han Lu was shocked, "You? Losing money? "
Isn't this a joke? Onmyoji earns you two hundred million a month, you're losing money?
You're lying through your teeth! Let's see how you're going to explain this!
Chen Mo explained, "You don't believe me? Look at Onmyoji, I'll be giving out Magatama to the players every few days, during holidays, and when there's an update. I'll be giving out one to two hundred Magatama at a time. That's all money.
"Some players even say that getting rich is all about maintenance, which means the players are making a profit.
"Think about it, if I give a player one to two hundred Magatama a day, how much money would I be giving out in a day when there are millions of active players in Onmyoji?
"You can easily figure it out, it's an astronomical number!
"So, look at how many free players who don't want to spend money are making a fortune playing Onmyoji. You got an SSR for free, aren't you making a fortune?"
Han Lu was shocked, looking at Chen Mo as if to say, "I'll just watch you show off."
Obviously, Han Lu couldn't find a breakthrough in Onmyoji, so she decided to ask about a different game.
"Actually, you've switched to PC games too right? They've also made two very successful games, Warcraft and Wulin Legend, both top tier in their respective fields. "
"Then I'd like to ask, why did you choose to pay for these two games instead of going free like Onmyoji?"
Chen Mo said after some thought, "If the players really want it, it's not impossible …"
Han Lu quickly raised her hand to stop Chen Mo, "Stop! Stop! What I'm trying to say is that this is fine! "
Han Lu broke out in cold sweat. If Chen Mo really did make Warcraft pay for items, the players would curse her to death.
Chen Mo said, "It's not technically difficult, if the players really want it …"
Han Lu hurriedly said, "No player would strongly request such a thing. Please stop here!"
Chen Mo nodded, "Alright."
Han Lu wiped the sweat off her forehead, "So, what do you think Mr Chen Mo has in mind for the mobile card game market? As we all know, I Am MT was a pioneer in mobile card games, and many other video game designers have been copying it. Do you think there will be so many more video game designers copying, oh no, learning from Onmyoji? "
Chen Mo said after some thought, "I think there will be other video game designers who are interested in Onmyoji and want to learn from it. However, I'd like to give everyone a piece of advice. The mobile card game market is only so big, and Onmyoji is a fatty, there's no room for anyone else. "
Han Lu was shocked, this Chen Mo is really daring! Does this mean that I'm going to take over the entire mobile card game market, and you guys should back off a bit?
