After this analysis, the confusion on everyone's faces turned into excitement and anticipation.
"So Boss Pei is really far-sighted. Asking us to develop an exclusive game was not a decision made on a whim, but the result of careful consideration?"
On further thought, this game was indeed most suitable for the designers of the independent game incubation base to make. That was because it was different from ordinary triple-A masterpieces.
Ordinary triple-A masterpieces were mainly focused on the gameplay, plot, and game mechanism. They required the cooperation of various departments and many details to be done to the extreme.
However, the first escort game of this game's route console was more like a hodgepodge of independent games.
That was because it had to project multiple devices at the same time. Thus, the functions and the overall level of the graphics would naturally not be too high. Otherwise, the host machine's functions might not be able to withstand the projection of multiple devices at the same time.
Using many different small gameplay to connect the entire game so that many people could experience the fun of such small gameplay when playing together. This was similar to independent games!
Every small gameplay was an idea that relied on the imagination of independent game designers.
It would be too difficult for one designer to come up with so many ideas. However, if many designers worked together, or even if everyone came up with a plan and chose the best few plans, they could ensure the quality of every small game and small segment!
Apart from that, there was a special meaning to letting the producers of the independent game incubation base create this escort masterpiece.
Everyone knew that this was Tengda Games' first game console. If Tengda Games personally created the escort masterpiece on this console, gamers would not be surprised. Instead, they would have high expectations for it.
However, a game console could not be supported by a single company!
The advantage of the console lay in the game ecosystem and the huge and outstanding game library.
A new console might not have such a huge game library for the time being, but it had to create expectations for gamers: in the future, many outstanding game companies would join this platform. Gamers would be able to play many outstanding masterpieces on this game console.
Only by establishing such expectations would gamers' purchasing power be fully stimulated!
Many foreign console manufacturers might not have many outstanding games when they released their new consoles, but gamers would still buy them crazily. This was because gamers knew that this console would definitely release many outstanding games in the future.
Therefore, if the producers of the independent game incubation base worked together to create such an escort game, they could convey a special concept to all players: this console was not only Tengda Games' backyard, but it was also the stage for Chao Lu Games Platform, all the game developers it worked with, and all the producers of the independent game incubation base!
Since the independent game developers were able to work together to develop such an outstanding masterpiece, they would naturally develop more outstanding games for the gamers in the future.
As for Tengda Games, needless to say, they would definitely release this game system as well.
As a result, the players had high expectations for the console. Once this expectation was established, the sales of the console would naturally not be a problem anymore!
Wu Zhicheng said excitedly, "This project is very meaningful. I've decided to join!"
The other independent game designers also nodded.
"We have received a lot of favors from Boss Pei. If Boss Pei and Boss Qiu had not found us and provided us with funds, we might not have been able to hold on. We were forced by life and had no choice but to leave the games industry. Boss Pei wants us to persevere in the independent games industry and provide gamers with better products! "
"Now that Boss Pei needs it, of course we will not shirk our responsibility!"
Previously, the game producers had been hesitant mainly because they did not have any confidence. They felt that they were not capable enough and might not be able to handle such a project. In the end, they would ruin Tengda's reputation and let Boss Pei down.
However, after this analysis, everyone felt that this game really belonged to everyone!
What's more, after having a clear direction, the imaginations of these producers were stimulated. All sorts of game ideas appeared in their minds.
They couldn't wait to produce these ideas!
Qiu Hong was very happy. "Very good, everyone is very motivated! However, even though Boss Pei has already given us a clear direction, we still cannot let our guard down. We still have to treat it seriously and do every detail well. "
"How about this, Xi Hao, you and Wu Zhicheng will briefly sort out the general framework of the game. Think about the background story and general style of the game."
"After that, we will openly solicit ideas from designers in all the independent game incubation bases. We will integrate the ideas and gameplay that we think are suitable into the general framework."
"After we've roughly finalized the game's design draft, I'll lead the development of the underlying framework and the game's art style. The independent game designers that we've chosen can unify and develop different gameplay based on this framework and put together a game."
"Finally, optimize its streaming split-screen function so that it can be more suitable for this system!"
"If we can achieve these goals and fulfill Boss Pei's requirements very satisfactorily, I believe Boss Pei will be proud of us!"
The independent game designers were very excited and even eager to give it a try.
Most of them did not have any projects on hand at the moment. They were all worried about what to do with their next independent game.
Independent games themselves were very creative. If they did not have suitable ideas, independent games would not have any advantages.
However, now that Boss Pei had given them an idea, everyone could unleash their abilities as much as they wanted under the framework of this idea. How could they not be excited?
The designers immediately took action. They began to gather materials, conceptualize, and quickly moved in the direction that Boss Pei was looking forward to!

April 9th, Tuesday …
Bunny Tail Live-Stream. Qiao Liang slammed the table angrily. "Why are Waiwai Live-Stream and Wolf Fang Live-Stream so excited? They're not done poaching our live-streamers! "
Last month, when he organized the safe and civilized driving competition, Qiao Liang had expressed to the outside world that Bunny Tail Live-Stream would not start a poaching war or restrict other platforms from live-streaming Tengda Games according to Boss Pei's request.
Originally, this was a magnanimous act that attracted netizens' likes. However, he did not expect Wolf Fang Live-Stream and Waiwai Live-Stream to treat this as a safe statement. Instead, they began to poach Bunny Tail Live-Stream's live-streamers!
Qiao Liang had just started work this week when he realized that three of his platform's live-streamers had been poached. What's more, they were all live-streamers who had just risen to prominence.
Compared to before, they had even accelerated!
Qiao Liang said angrily, "These two platforms are really shameless! I really think that Boss Pei is being too kind to them! "
"We should ban all Tengda Games from broadcasting against such rogue companies. We can't give them any face!"
Even though he was angry, Qiao Liang did not dare to disobey Boss Pei's orders.
After all, Boss Pei was the one at the helm of Tengda. Many times, he made different decisions from him. Perhaps it was out of consideration for the overall situation and had deeper intentions.
Qiao Liang calmed down a little. He felt that as one of the person-in-charge of Tengda Corporation, he had to follow Boss Pei's instructions seriously and analyze the deeper meaning behind it. Or, he could take another path and think of other solutions outside of Boss Pei's restrictions.
Qiao Liang looked up at the work desk opposite him.
Boss Ma had not come yet. It looked like his seclusion had not ended.
Qiao Liang heard that Boss Ma's graduation thesis might be submitted on the 10th or so. In other words, Boss Ma might come over to inspect the work this week. He could not continue wasting his time like this!
Boss Ma might not think so even though what he was doing now was what Boss Pei had requested.
In the workplace, not only did he have to satisfy the requirements of his superiors, but he also had to consider the requirements of his direct superior. Otherwise, he would not end up well if he went against one of his superiors!
Qiao Liang felt that he should do some substantial work before Boss Ma returned. Otherwise, it would not be easy to answer to Boss Ma when he asked.
However, what could he do in this situation? Boss Pei had sealed off many paths. He could not fight a price war with other platforms and poach live-streamers who had huge liquidated damages. He could not have any thoughts on the game and could not ban the two live-stream platforms' Tengda Games.
At the end of the day, what cards could he play? There were no good ways to attack the entire Bunny Tail Live-Stream.
Qiao Liang switched on his computer and searched for news about live-stream platforms.
He did not have much hope. After all, these big platforms were not stupid. They should not leave any direct evidence.
However, Qiao Liang's eyes lit up.
He saw a piece of news about live-stream platforms! It was the sky-high liquidated damages of a famous live-stream!
Waiwai Live-Stream and Wolf Fang Live-Stream had been competitors for a long time. Naturally, there was friction.
The cause of this matter was that a famous live-stream had jumped from Waiwai Live-Stream to Wolf Fang Live-Stream. After jumping, he had to bear a hundred million yuan in liquidated damages.
However, Wolf Fang Live-Stream did not intend to help him pay this sum of money. On the other hand, Waiwai Live-Stream had a contract in black and white. Thus, they directly filed a complaint and banned this famous live-stream.
Wolf Fang Live-Stream might have the intention to protect him, but there were clear legal rules after all. They could only wait patiently for the trial. From the current situation, the possibility of Wolf Fang Live-Stream paying a hundred million yuan in liquidated damages for this live-stream was slim. Once the trial was held, this famous live-stream would most likely lose.
Thus, this famous live-stream gave up and began to complain to the audience online, especially encouraging his fans to put pressure on Waiwai Live-Stream.
However, Waiwai Live-Stream would also be affected by such small scenes. They had seen many big storms. What kind of storm could an ordinary live-stream cause?
Encouraging fans to give the app bad reviews? Waiwai Live-Stream was not afraid of this.
Thus, according to this script, the final outcome would most likely be Waiwai Live-Stream earning a hundred million yuan.
The live-stream might not necessarily have the money to pay. If they had the money, they would pay. If they did not have the money, they would become debtors. They would not be able to continue live-streaming at Wolf Fang Live-Stream to earn money. They could only return to Waiwai Live-Stream dejectedly to work to pay off their debts.
Of course, one should not think that Wolf Fang Live-Stream would lose out. That was because Wolf Fang Live-Stream also had a list of live-streamers who had been poached by Waiwai Live-Stream. As long as they went to court one by one, they would also be able to obtain a lot of liquidated damages.
The two platforms would sue each other's live-streamers and earn the liquidated damages. Wouldn't that be perfect?
Logically speaking, this matter had nothing to do with Bunny Tail Live-Stream. That was because the contract on Bunny Tail Live-Stream did not restrict live-streamers from jumping ship. Waiwai Live-Stream and Wolf Fang Live-Stream were accurate.
However, Qiao Liang suddenly realized that this seemed to be a good opportunity!
The battle between the two platforms was indeed very intense. It looked like a fight between immortals, but in reality, it was just noobs pecking at each other!
It looked like a fight between immortals, but it was because the amount of money poaching people was very high. An annual salary of millions, tens of millions, and a penalty of tens of millions sounded scary.
In fact, it was just noobs pecking at each other because this kind of poaching was completely based on deception! As long as live-streamers had a little legal awareness, they would study the terms in the contract more. They would not be deceived and still have to pay for others after being sold.
However, the key was that live-streamers really did not have any legal awareness!
The people on the platform were tricked into joining the other party's platform without obtaining a clear agreement. They even wishfully thought that the other party would really solve the problem of the contract for them.
In the end, they had to bear all the responsibility for the breach of contract.
At first, he thought that his annual salary was very high. However, when something really happened, he realized that it was not even a fraction of the liquidated damages!
Qiao Liang suddenly thought of Lu Mingliang's method.
Back then, Lu Mingliang had reprimanded Nie Yunsheng on a live-stream and exposed the background of Shengyun Corporation. It had caused a strong reaction from netizens.
Everyone was on Lu Mingliang's side. It could be said that he had achieved great success in terms of public opinion. In an instant, Upwind Logistics stood at the commanding heights and suppressed Shengyun Corporation.
Since Lu Mingliang could do it, why couldn't I, Qiao Liang?
There were also insiders in the live streaming industry that could be dissected!
What's more, after Lu Mingliang conducted such a debate, Meng Chang even specially led the production of a program called "The Person-In-Charge Says", which was specially used to fight the battle of public opinion.
Guo Licheng released a video about the gym model, which was also very popular. Later, Rui Yuchen also published an analysis of Fish-Catching Take-Out and the takeout business model. It also received a good response.
As it turned out, "The Person-In-Charge Says" was indeed effective!
However, it happened to collide with Boss Pei's plan for the person-in-charge to go to the grassroots level. Naturally, the segment 'The Person-In-Charge Says' was cut off.
This was because the people in charge had all gone to work at the grassroots level. Those who should be delivering packages did so, and those who should be network administrators did so. Where would they have the energy to record such a program?
What's more, after they went down to the grassroots level, they would no longer be in charge of the department. If they were not in charge of the department's direct business, they would not be able to record "The Person in Charge Says".
Qiao Liang felt that this should be a coincidence. However, no matter what, the segment 'The Person-In-Charge Says' was a key weapon for Tengda to win against public opinion. It could not be stopped just like that!
He was now the acting person in charge, but the acting person was still the person in charge. He could also go and record the show!
At that thought, Qiao Liang immediately called Meng Chang.
Speaking of which, it was a little strange. As the person-in-charge of the advertising and marketing department, Meng Chang did not go to the grassroots level like the other person-in-charge. It seemed like Boss Pei had given special permission. He did not know what special meaning there was in this.
Soon, the call was picked up.
Qiao Liang briefly explained his thoughts to Meng Chang. He hoped that he could record such a video and continue to be a follow-up segment to 'The Person-In-Charge Says'. He wanted to dissect the tricks of Waiwai Live-Stream and Wolf Fang Live-Stream, especially the way they poached people.
That was because most viewers and live-streamers did not understand the real problem with this trick so far. Qiao Liang felt that as the acting person-in-charge of Bunny Tail Live-Stream and the live-stream of Bunny Tail Live-Stream, he had the responsibility and obligation to educate everyone!
On the other end of the line, Meng Chang said after a moment of silence, "I also think that the program 'The Person-In-Charge Says' can't be stopped. At first, I was wondering if I should let the acting person-in-charge participate in the recording. Now that you've taken the initiative to look for me, we have the same thoughts!"
"How about this? You prepare a little. I'll make a rough plan for the video."
"I don't think we can speak dryly this time. That's because the person-in-charge's speech alone might not be very convincing. I'm considering asking a few live-streamers from Bunny Tail Live-Stream to talk about their own experiences. That way, your analysis would be more convincing."
"We'll start recording soon. We'll try to release the video on Thursday!"
Qiao Liang nodded in complete agreement.
Of course, the sooner this video was released, the better. After all, every day it was delayed, there might be live-streamers poached by the other two platforms!
