Just as the players were looking forward to Chen Mo winning more awards in Europe and America, a piece of news started to spread on the internet.
Chen Mo's experience store was changing!
Many players' first reaction was disbelief when they saw the news.
This was because the players that had been to Chen Mo's experience store knew that Chen Mo had never expressed any intention of changing, and that he was quite comfortable with the experience store he had so far.
Of course, there was some logic to this news, which was that Chen Mo's experience store was a bit small.
With Thunderbolt Entertainment's wealth and influence, the experience store that was only four floors tall was a bit shabby. Moreover, players would have to queue up for long periods of time during festivals or when new games were released.
However, some people felt that the experience store was quite good, as the rarer something was, the more valuable it was. It was easy to find Chen Mo here, and the staff was relatively fixed. If it was a larger experience store, the atmosphere wouldn't be the same.
However, after looking at the information in the post, it seemed more and more like it was real.
This was because the post contained blueprints for a new experience store, and someone actually found the building in the Imperial Capital …
It was at this point that the players realized that this wasn't fake news, but real.
Chen Mo really was changing experience stores.
Moreover, from all aspects, the building Chen Mo was building couldn't be considered an experience store anymore. It would be more appropriate to call it Thunderbolt Entertainment Headquarters.
From the blueprints, the new Thunderbolt Entertainment Headquarters had many functions, including the experience area, office area, and theme area. In other words, the new Thunderbolt Entertainment Headquarters would be a research center, experience store, and theme park, becoming a new landmark in the Imperial Capital.
Many players went to the experience store to ask Chen Mo if the news about the new Thunderbolt Entertainment Headquarters was real.
Chen Mo admitted that the news was real. The location of the new headquarters had already been planned two years ago, and was estimated to be completed in four years. This meant that the earliest they could move to the new headquarters would be next year.
Chen Mo even posted a concept map of the new headquarters on Weibo, causing a heated discussion among the netizens.
After seeing the blueprints, the concept map, and the actual location, the players were all amazed at how good it was to be rich!
…
Thunderbolt Entertainment's new headquarters was located in the northeast of the Imperial Capital, near a large forest park. It was originally a huge golf course.
More than two years ago, this area had been completely sealed off and construction had begun. However, there was construction going on almost all the time in the Imperial Capital, so it did not attract people's attention.
Of course, the structure of the Imperial Capital in this parallel world was not exactly the same as in his previous world.
This place was between the Fourth and Fifth Ring Road. It was not too remote, and it could be reached directly by the two main subway lines. The vertical subway line could reach the underground of the headquarters, and the horizontal subway line could reach the south entrance of the headquarters after exiting from the northeast exit. It could be said that the traffic was very convenient.
Moreover, this place was originally close to the forest park. It was originally a golf course with mountains and rivers, and the environment was very good. It was foreseeable that Thunderbolt Entertainment's HQ would have a theme area apart from the main building. Players would be able to enjoy the scenery.
Many players were lamenting over how much money they had to spend in the Imperial Capital where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold!
In reality, Thunderbolt Entertainment's new HQ was a hundred and fifty thousand square meters, costing over 1.5 billion USD, or 9 billion RMB.
Two years ago, when League of Legends became popular all over the world and Thunderbolt Entertainment's income skyrocketed, the new HQ was already in the planning stages. At the time, many employees felt that such a huge HQ was a bit of a waste. After all, it was as big as the HQ of a Fortune 500 company, or even more extravagant.
However, from the current situation, Chen Mo's decision was correct.
Moreover, as Thunderbolt Entertainment's international influence grew, Chen Mo's reputation in the Game Committee grew, and the new HQ became more and more convenient.
The concept map that Chen Mo posted had the players discussing the new HQ.
The main body of the HQ was a huge spherical building with sixteen floors. The 'floors' here weren't the floors of a residential building, but the levels that could be seen from the exterior of the building.
From the outside, the entire spherical building looked like a Lego Star Wars toy, full of technology.
In reality, the entire building was over one hundred and seventy meters tall. From the outside, each of the sixteen floors was equivalent to the third floor of a residential building.
This was a building full of technology. The four central floors were the office area, the bottom two floors were the rest area and the theme tour guide area, the top two floors were the sightseeing area, and the other floors were the experience area.
The experience area would adopt a more open design so that players could have a better game trial experience.
Outside the building, the entire spherical building was lifted up by four huge bolts of lightning. The four bolts of lightning circled around the huge sphere. On one hand, it was to increase the weight of the building, and on the other hand, it was the symbol of Thunderbolt Entertainment.
The new HQ was named "New World". The meaning of the design was: Thunderbolt Entertainment changes the world.
Although the new HQ wasn't very tall in the Imperial Capital, there weren't any tall buildings around it, making it stand out. Once completed, the entire northeastern part of the Imperial Capital would be able to see this magnificent spherical building. Whether it was day or night, it would become one of the new landmarks of the Imperial Capital, a must-visit attraction for players visiting the Imperial Capital.
Moreover, other than the huge spherical building, there were large patches of green around it. These green patches would become a theme area, a mini theme park.
All of Thunderbolt Entertainment's games would have a place in the theme park. Different games would be in different sections. There would be a fantasy section, a Chinese section, a reality section, a future section, and so on.
Players would be able to see the mental hospital from Outlast, the hotel from Azeroth, the buildings from PlayerUnknown's Battleground with their gun models and supplies, Nathan's house from Uncharted Waters, or an abandoned school from American Apocalypse.
There were even more statues of the heroes in 'League of Legends' that were placed in every corner of the theme area for the players to take pictures with.
Statues of other main characters from other games would also be placed in the theme area.
