The employees were busy in the office area of Bunny Tail Live-Stream.
As a new department that had just started, it was not easy to obtain the current results. A few promotions had brought a lot of popularity to Bunny Tail Live-Stream, so the employees were all filled with enthusiasm. All of them were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
There was still a lot of work that needed to be done on Bunny Tail Live-Stream, including optimization of the website, signing contracts with various streamers, arrangements for recommendation spots and promotional activities, business cooperation with other related companies, and so on. These were all long-term work.
What's more, even though Bunny Tail Live-Stream was very popular, it was still a long way from turning losses into profits. Thus, most employees felt that they had to continue working hard.
Everyone knew how big the live-stream industry was. Now that Bunny Tail Live-Stream was developing so well, as long as they worked hard to make Bunny Tail Live-Stream the industry leader, how could the bonus be lacking?
However, this scene made Pei Qian worry from the bottom of his heart.
Even though Bunny Tail Live-Stream was still far from making money, it would be a huge hidden danger if it became popular!
Pei Qian went straight to Chen Yufeng and prepared to discuss the future development of Bunny Tail Live-Stream with him.
Chen Yufeng was a little surprised to see Boss Pei. "Boss Pei, Boss Ma didn't come today. Should I give him a call?"
Pei Qian shook his head. "No need."
Call Old Ma? There was no need for that.
Don't think that I don't know that all these good things were done by you. It has nothing to do with Old Ma!
With Old Ma's brain, how could he think of letting Bunny Tail Live-Stream do an unofficial commentary? Could he negotiate with other platforms and Long Yu Corporation? How could he inexplicably create so much popularity?
Pei Qian knew Old Ma too well. Old Ma's thinking would only be affected by the last person who spoke to him. Thus, there was no doubt that Bunny Tail Live-Stream had fallen to its current state because of Chen Yufeng!
Thus, it did not matter if Old Ma was around today. Pei Qian mainly had to reverse Chen Yufeng's train of thought.
The two of them sat down in the guest room. Pei Qian took a sip of tea and said, "Has Bunny Tail Live-Stream forgotten its original intentions recently?"
Chen Yufeng was stunned. "Boss Pei, why do you say that?"
Boss Pei's question made him panic. How could he forget his original intentions? These words sounded a bit heavy!
Could it be that there was something wrong with his work recently that made Boss Pei unhappy?
Pei Qian said earnestly, "Recently, you've focused your entire work on the E-Sports competition. First, it was the GPL's real-time data, and then it was the ICL's unofficial commentary. Do you still remember the original intention of Bunny Tail Live-Stream?"
Chen Yufeng quickly said, "Of course I remember! Boss Pei, we've actually made some new functions for the learning content of Bunny Tail Live-Stream. For example, we've made two special areas for entertainment content and learning content on Bunny Tail Live-Stream. We've also made replays for various knowledge-based live-streams so that we can watch them repeatedly … "
"In addition, we also have a focus mode in our plan. In this mode, it's equivalent to a self-study room. After entering, you can't exit for a period of time. This will help improve your learning efficiency."
"These functions will be released one after another in the near future."
"The reason why I've placed my focus on the E-Sports League recently is mainly to display my advantages and attract as much attention as possible for the platform …"
Pei Qian was stunned.
These functions had not been released yet, so he did not know about them.
However, Pei Qian quickly reacted and continued speaking earnestly, "That's not enough!"
"We might have added a time limit to the focus mode even though we've created entertainment mode, learning mode, and focus mode, but wouldn't our platform be no different from other live-stream platforms as long as we don't enter learning mode and focus mode?"
"It's impossible to expect the audience to consciously learn knowledge. They will definitely spend all day in entertainment mode, watching competitions and game live-streams."
"Our platform clearly has so much professional knowledge and so many scholars giving lectures. However, many users only watch the live-stream of the competition on it. They leave after watching it. It's like entering a treasure mountain and returning empty-handed. What a pity!"
"Therefore, we have to set mandatory learning requirements for all our users!"
"According to the age of the users, they will be divided into two categories: adults and minors."
"Minors should be limited to using entertainment mode within one to three hours. At the same time, close all top-up windows."
"Adults are not restricted from using entertainment mode. However, be it adults or minors, they must be forced to use an hour of learning mode or focus mode before using entertainment mode. They can only watch the entertainment mode content after the time is up!"
Chen Yufeng was shocked. "Huh? Boss Pei, this … this is a little inappropriate, isn't it? "
"Most people are already very busy with work. They want to watch live-streams to relax after work. In the end, we forced them to use an hour of learning mode or focus mode. While it can be solved by hanging up, this is undoubtedly creating a huge obstacle for users!"
"That way, people will definitely choose to watch live-streams on other platforms first."
"If we were already in a monopoly position, we could consider doing so. However, our market share is still very low now …"
Pei Qian smiled slightly. "I know all that."
"However, we have to bear social responsibility by doing live-streams!"
"Bitter medicine cures disease. Other live-stream platforms provide pure entertainment content, but our platform provides a lot of learning content. If we don't make such mandatory rules, who would really have the motivation to take the initiative to watch these learning content? "
"It's also our responsibility to guide users to use the live-stream platform correctly."
"It doesn't matter even if we lose some users. I believe that the remaining users will definitely understand our good intentions!"
Pei Qian's righteous words rendered Chen Yufeng speechless.
He could only sigh. Boss Pei was indeed a different entrepreneur!
It was just like Fish-Catching Take-Out previously. Apart from Boss Pei, who else would have thought of paying such a huge price and giving up so many potential users to support garbage sorting and protect the environment?
The kitchen waste that was decomposed might be a drop in the bucket compared to the garbage created in the entire city. The investment and results might not be proportional, but it was a form of sentiment!
It was the same for all users of the live-stream platform to use learning mode or focus mode this time. It might cause the platform to lose a large number of users, but as long as the users of the platform persevered and took out this hour every day to learn or do their own things seriously, it would be considered a merit!
Chen Yufeng nodded. "Alright, Boss Pei. I'll arrange it immediately!"
…
Pei Qian went to Fish-Catching Internet Cafe to have a cup of coffee and rest after arranging for Bunny Tail Live-Stream.
The new function arranged for Bunny Tail Live-Stream was relatively simple. It would be very fast to add a small restriction since the focus mode and learning mode had already been done.
The focus mode should be online next month, and users would be forced to use it for an hour a day, dissuading a large number of viewers.
Pei Qian felt a little more at ease at that thought.
He had just calmed down and was about to think about the situation of the other businesses when his phone rang.
He took a look at the caller ID. It was He An.
"Eh?"
Pei Qian was stunned.
Previously, He An had made a trip to Jingzhou and watched the DEMO of Mission and Choice with Pei Qian. He had also given his sincere suggestion. "Make use of the scraps of the game and create a new game. We can still recover some losses. Otherwise, we will lose everything."
Pei Qian was overjoyed when he heard He An's judgment. He was just waiting for the sales of Mission and Choice to explode and incur huge losses.
However, why was He An calling this time?
That was because He An generally did not like to chat on the phone for no reason. There must be something wrong if he took the initiative to call.
However, it was not time for Mission and Choice to be released yet.
Pei Qian picked up the phone. "Hello? Teacher He, what's the matter? "
He An's voice was very serious on the other end of the line. "Boss Pei, have you been paying attention to the news in the American gaming circle recently? What's the latest news from this morning? "
Pei Qian was confused. "Huh? What news? "
Pei Qian had never paid attention to the news in the foreign gaming circle before, let alone recently. That was because what new games were released overseas could not affect Pei Qian's losses. What was the need to pay attention to them?
He An sighed softly. "Boss Pei, you're too confident! It's no wonder. The probability of this happening is too low. It's understandable that it's not within the scope of your plan. "
"Boss Pei, you have to be mentally prepared for what happens next. Don't be too agitated."
Pei Qian felt confused. "What exactly is it?"
He An paused for a moment and then said, "'Fantasy Battle' is going to be remade. A promotional video has already been released. It's said that it will be officially released in May."
"If I remember correctly, Boss Pei, your 'Mission and Choice' should also be … released in May, right?"
Pei Qian was stunned. "'Fantasy Battle'? The 'Fantasy Battle' that was produced by the same company as' Starcraft 2 '? "
He An: "Of course, what other 'Fantasy Battle' could there be!"
"Boss Pei, you should know very well the position of this game in the history of RTS games, right? It would not be an exaggeration to call it the most successful RTS game in history along with the 'Starcraft' series and the 'Command and Conquer' series, especially with the extremely successful MMORPG game 'Fantasy World' under the same IP … "
"Boss Pei, I know that you have invested a huge sum of money into 'Mission and Choice'. You are also full of confidence in your own game, but this is not a joke. There's no need to fight head-on. In any case, hundreds of millions of yuan of research and development funds have already been invested. It doesn't matter if we wait another two months, right?"
He An's words were sincere and heartfelt as he tried his best to persuade them.
He An had been feeling uneasy every day ever since he played the DEMO of Mission and Choice. It was as if he could foresee the terrible sales after the game was released and the tragic situation of Boss Pei falling off the altar.
However, Boss Pei's attitude was too firm and full of confidence. Thus, He An felt that Boss Pei should know what to do and reluctantly relaxed.
However, He An immediately lost his composure when he heard that 'Fantasy Battle' was going to be released this morning. What's more, it happened to coincide with the release date of 'Mission and Choice'!
He An might be spending Boss Pei's money but the original idea for this game originated from He An after all. What's more, he had invested so much and had the heavy responsibility of 'washing away the shame of the domestic games industry'. No matter how he thought about it, he could not afford to lose it.
Thus, He An did not dare to delay and called to remind him.
Pei Qian could not help but be overjoyed. "Really? That's great! "
"Teacher He, do you know when 'Fantasy Battle Remake' will be released? I'll cooperate with them. "
He An was stunned. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Boss Pei, are you serious? Not only are you not avoiding it, but you're also taking the initiative to bump into it? "
Pei Qian pondered for a moment. "I don't have to ask for it to be on the same day. Just about it will do."
He An: "…"
"Alright, Boss Pei. Since you're so confident, I won't say anything else."
"However, I suggest that you go online to watch the promotional video for 'Fantasy Battle Remake' before making a decision."
Pei Qian's mood instantly improved after hanging up.
Pei Qian had been in a bad mood recently because of Deposit Fitness and Bunny Tail Live-Stream. Now that he heard this good news, Pei Qian was elated.
Alright, the timing, location, and people were all in the right place. Wasn't that a loss?
If there was a slight chance of success, it would definitely be crushed to pieces now that it had collided with 'Fantasy Battle Remake', right?
Pei Qian came to this world on September 17th, 2009. His memories before transmigration were retained ten years ago, which was 2019.
He remembered that there seemed to be news of Warcraft 3 Remake at that time. However, Blizzard always liked to skip tickets, so they jumped to 2020. Thus, Pei Qian did not play it.
However, that did not affect it. That was because the quality of the game was definitely not a problem from the updated video. Even if it could not become a legendary masterpiece, it should not be a problem to recreate a classic, right?
It was a classic game after all. The game mechanism was very perfect. As long as the graphics were changed and more CG was added, wouldn't it be perfect?
Of course, this world's' Fantasy Battle 'was not the same as' Warcraft '. What's more, this remake was released seven or eight years earlier. There were huge changes.
Thus, to be safe, Pei Qian decided to take a look at the promotional video of the remake.
He opened Aili Island's website and quickly found the video of the relocation.
…
Dong! Dong!
An axe was deeply cut into a tree. The rain was pattering in the sky, and the rumbling of war drums sounded. In the orc camp, hard workers were working hard to cut down trees.
Ding ding ding …
Urgent bells rang throughout the human town. Farmers who were mining gold came to the town hall and picked up iron swords, armor, and shields.
A line of small words appeared on the screen: "Development in progress — art and special effects are not the final effect."
The image rose, and the camps of humans, orcs, elves, and other races appeared on the screen. From a bird's eye view, busy farmers, bustling towns, and assembled armies could be seen. The decisive battle was about to begin.
Then, the image zoomed in quickly, and more details appeared.
The muscles of the orcs, the thick plate armor of the human knights, the rising flames of the demons …
These details were clearly displayed in front of the players, accompanied by impassioned music that made their blood boil!
Following that, every model before and after the rework was also displayed. Those familiar heroes had all been changed from the mosaic version to the HD rework version. They looked ten times more handsome.
"Re-modeled characters and animations!"
"A brand new map and battle!"
"A brand new interface and map editor!"
"High-definition rendering of 4K resolution!"
"High-definition remastering, the return of the king!"
The bullet screen was filled with comments that said, "How fragrant."
"This cold rice is too fragrant!"
"Fragrant warning!"
"Buy out of stock! Are we still human if we don't buy? "
"Good lord, this image quality, don't tell me we have to change computers again?"
"Buy the map editor and give it to the game!"
"Don't tell me we're going to use Starcraft 2's game engine to remake it? That'd be great! "
"It's time to buy more tickets. I'll buy it no matter how much it costs!"
…
Pei Qian was completely relieved after seeing the promotional video and the gamers' reactions.
Of course, there would be no problem!
This was a project that could be done with their feet. Why would they worry about not being able to kill Mission and Choice?
This video was so excellent, the audience's feedback was so good, and it was a company that had created so many high-quality games. How could this game be bad?
Mission and Choice was definitely going to lose!
