Chen Mo said, "As you know, I Am MT is completely free, right? Even if you don't spend a single cent, you can keep playing until the game shuts down, right? "
Han Lu thought about it, and it seemed to be the case, so she nodded.
Chen Mo said, "It's a free game, why would the players spend so much money on it? I'm actually a transmigrator. I can use the game to control the minds of the players, making them willingly spend money in the game. "
Han Lu was speechless.
The atmosphere was awkward.
Chen Mo laughed, "Sorry, that joke was a bit cold."
Han Lu wiped the sweat off her forehead, "It's fine, it's fine. You're too serious when you're telling corny jokes. I fell for it by accident. "
Chen Mo said, "Obviously, I'm not a transmigrator, nor can I control the minds of the players, right? Therefore, there's only one reason why the players would spend so much money on a free game.
"They have a passion for the game from the bottom of their hearts. They can feel my sincerity in the game, which is why they're willing to spend money to support me, hoping that I can make better games in the future.
"I will always remember the love the players have shown me, and will never slack off. I will definitely make better games to repay them."
Han Lu's mouth twitched, "Uhm, if I remember correctly, you said you were taking a break?"
Chen Mo nodded, "That's right. But I will always remember the players in my heart. "
Han Lu felt like she was going to go crazy. This guy is full of nonsense, he's not reliable at all!
It feels like I can't get any useful answers out of him!
But since she was already here, Han Lu had no choice but to continue asking.
"In order to hype up I Am MT, you've even invested in an animated series called I Am MT, as well as a website dedicated to introducing the world of the game called World of Azeroth. It's quite rich in content.
"However, I Am MT didn't use much of the content. Is this because of the limitations of the game? Or were you planning on using the world of the game as a gimmick from the start? "
Chen Mo said, "Well, that's a secret, everyone can look forward to it."
Han Lu asked, "So you're saying that you have plans to continue developing the world of Azeroth?"
Chen Mo replied, "I didn't promise that. As I said, it's a secret. Everyone can look forward to it. "
…
The interview lasted for nearly two hours. By the end of the interview, Han Lu felt like her mind was in a mess. Fortunately, she had the recording pen to record their conversation, and Han Lu had also jotted down some of the contents of the conversation.
Feeling that she couldn't get any more information out of him, Han Lu stood up and bade farewell.
"Sorry for troubling you today," Han Lu said.
Chen Mo waved his hand, "You're welcome. I also want to thank you for sharing my true thoughts with the players, letting them feel my passion for gaming and my sincerity towards the players."
Han Lu: "… Goodbye."
Han Lu felt a little dizzy as she left the experience store.
What's going on? I feel like I've been tricked …
Before coming here, the editor repeatedly told Han Lu to get the secrets behind I Am MT out of him. Things like the secret to making money in a free to play game, or Chen Mo's creativity. These were all explosive points that might cause an uproar if they were included in the article.
Even if she couldn't get the secrets out of him, she wanted to get some of Chen Mo's true thoughts, such as whether he cared more about making money than the players' feelings, or whether he was purposely trying to make the players compete with each other.
Content like this could create conflict and create topics to talk about.
In the end, Han Lu realized that she didn't complete the editor's task at all.
The secrets behind I Am MT? Not a single one!
Chen Mo's true thoughts? Not a single one!
This guy was simply lying through his teeth. What passion for gaming? Sincerity towards the players? Persistence towards your dreams?
He didn't even blink when he lied! Han Lu was starting to wonder if Chen Mo was schizophrenic!
"Forget it, I'll just have to follow Chen Mo's instructions …"
Han Lu felt a headache coming on as she looked at the content she had written in her notebook. She had a feeling that this would be the most complicated script she had ever written since she started working in the industry …
Chen Mo was amused as he watched Han Lu leave. Trying to trick me? You're too naive.
Why would I tell you the secret to making money in I Am MT? If Chen Mo really told her without any ulterior motives, wouldn't he be giving all video game designers a free lesson on how to get paywalls?
Of course, Chen Mo knew that even if he didn't say it, the video game designers of this world would eventually figure out the secret to making card games. It wouldn't be long before there would be a flood of card games like in his previous life.
However, Chen Mo didn't mind. Even if these people figured out the secret to card games, it would take at least a few months. By that time, Chen Mo wouldn't even care about making the lowest tier first generation card games anymore.
…
Three days later, Chen Mo's interview was published on the Tianji gaming channel. The title was "Interview with I Am MT's Designer Chen Mo: Creating Happiness with Your Heart".
There was a paragraph in the interview that went like this.
"When the interviewer asked why he was so confident in I Am MT, Chen Mo replied, Chen Mo replied, "My motto when designing games is to create happiness with my heart. To be able to make such a good game, it all comes from my passion for games, my sincerity towards the players, and my persistence towards my dreams. "
There was a lot of similar content, and Han Lu basically recorded all of Chen Mo's answers.
The interview did go viral, but the way it went viral wasn't what Han Lu expected.
Many players left comments after seeing the interview.
"Chen Mo's words can't be trusted, not even a single punctuation mark!
"Creating happiness with his heart? It's creating happiness with his heart! "
"He had a conscience when he was making Plants vs Zombies, but now it's all been exposed! He's a scammer! "
"I'm dying of laughter. Who did this interview? Are the reporters and editors brainless 2333?"
"It's one thing for Chen Mo to run his mouth, but the editor even wrote it down and posted it!"
"I feel like I'm watching the news broadcast …"
"I'm tearing up from laughing. Is today April Fool's?"
"Chen Mo is creating happiness with his heart? This is the best joke of the year 23333. "
