At the beginning of the video, it was still Teacher Qiao's unique voice with a slight accent, hoarse and long.
"Hello, dear viewers. I'm still your 'Father of Games', Teacher Qiao, who works every day until he goes bald and produces like a sow."
"Recently, the official platform has released a 'classic domestically-produced game compilation'. I'll take this opportunity to introduce a 'classic' domestically-produced game known as the 'shame of the domestic games industry', 'Mission and Choice'!"
"Perhaps many viewers have not experienced that era and do not understand why this game is called the 'shame of the domestic games industry'. That's alright. Let me start from the background at that time and slowly explain it to all of you …"
Qiao Liang had started his career with this series after all. He could easily complain about trashy games.
The video was filled with research on all sorts of information at that time. There were also a lot of game images. Coupled with Qiao Liang's jesting and humorous commentary style, it was still enjoyable to listen to even though it had been done many times.
After complaining about how trashy this game was, Qiao Liang also introduced the final outcome of this incident: gamers who had pre-purchased Mission and Choice had refunded a large number of discs, and a large number of discs had been discarded. Gamers' enthusiasm for supporting domestically-produced games had been severely damaged, and domestically-produced standalone games had entered a long period of decline …
Qiao Liang was heartbroken when he spoke about this paragraph, and the audience's bullet screen comments were filled with sighs.
However, at the end of the video, Qiao Liang changed the topic and brought hope to the audience.
"Today, Mission and Choice has been nailed to the pillar of shame of domestically-produced games."
"In the past, when we mentioned Mission and Choice, we could only vent our anger at this game with a sense of resentment. We mourned the misfortune of domestically-produced standalone games and were angry at their lack of competitiveness."
"However, what is gratifying now is that when we look back at Mission and Choice again, our original resentment no longer exists. It's more of a joke."
"That's because more and more outstanding domestically-produced games are emerging. The domestically-produced standalone game market is no longer a desert."
"We can finally let go of those unpleasant memories and continue to look forward."
"Someone once said that domestically-produced games are trash apart from Tengda. We might have Repent and be Saved and Struggle, but they are just miraculous flowers in a desolate desert.
"However, now, we know that Boss Pei is not the only one working hard in the domestically-produced standalone games market. We have the 'Destitution Plan', 'Survival Guide for Working Adults', 'Black Ink and Clouds', and other outstanding independent games!"
"As these independent game designers continue to grow, they will definitely be able to improve continuously. The old tree of domestically-produced standalone games will once again flourish!"
"The future of domestically-produced standalone games will definitely get better and better!"
"The content of the incubation base of the 'Destitution Plan' was taken from the official platform's exclusive interview. If everyone is interested, you can check it out yourself. In addition, Black Ink and Clouds will be officially released tomorrow. I hope everyone can pay close attention! "
Qiao Liang was considered a big UP Master in the gaming area of Aili Island's website. Not long after the video was released, it already had a lot of views and a lot of comments.
Many viewers clicked in excitedly when they saw that Qiao Liang had updated the video. They were disappointed when they realized that it was' Trash Game Diss'. They all expressed that Teacher Qiao's cold rice was really perfunctory. He had even used a game from more than ten years ago to make a video.
However, after watching the entire video, the audience was deeply moved and discussed enthusiastically!
"I felt very disappointed when I saw that 'Fantasy Battle Remake' had been released, but we had been promoting the 'classic domestically-produced game compilation'. However, I felt better after watching this video. There are obviously still people working hard even though domestically-produced standalone games can't compare to foreign games! "
"Teacher Qiao is right. In the past, we cursed Mission and Choice because domestically-produced standalone games really did not have a single good game. Now, everyone can look at it with a mocking attitude, not because we are tolerant, but because the environment for domestically-produced standalone games has improved. We also have a batch of good games that belong to us. Therefore, we can naturally laugh off the humiliation in the past."
"I just went to watch the interview. It was really well done."
"That's right. I didn't expect the developer of Black Ink and Clouds, Wu Zhicheng, to have such a rough experience. If not for the 'Destitution Plan', the release of Black Ink and Clouds would probably have been delayed for another ten years … What's more, it would definitely not have achieved its current quality."
"Boss Qiu's journey is also very emotional. He entered the industry with a dream, lost his heart in a game with paywalls, and came back after going around in circles. Isn't it a form of happiness to be able to fulfill his dream in his middle age? "
"I just don't know who this mysterious investor is. I feel like he's someone with a big plan and a big bearing."
"I've decided. In the future, I will definitely support any game produced by the Destitution Plan as long as the quality is passable!"
…
Pei Qian's mood worsened after reading the comments section.
No one had guessed that this' mysterious investor 'was him but the popularity of the Destitution Plan and Black Ink and Clouds had increased!
Not only that, not many people had paid attention to Mission and Choice, an old game, but now, it had become the focus of discussion because of Qiao Liang's video.
This was too disadvantageous for Mission and Choice, which was about to be released!
Pei Qian paced anxiously in the office as he silently adjusted Qiao Liang's ranking in his notebook.
Qiao Liang's prediction increased the risk of Pei Qian's perfect plan.
What should he do?
Pei Qian paced around the office twice and decided to call Meng Chang.
He had to prepare for a rainy day.
The key problem now was not how to expand the results of the battle, but how to stop the losses in advance.
Pei Qian knew that Meng Chang had asked for thirty million yuan for publicity. He had only spent ten million yuan now and had twenty million yuan left.
If not for Qiao Liang's video, Pei Qian would definitely hope that Meng Chang would spend the remaining twenty million yuan as soon as possible. The faster he spent it, the happier he would be.
However, the situation had changed.
Qiao Liang's video had already achieved a very good publicity effect. What if the twenty million yuan was spent and Mission and Choice's popularity increased greatly? What if the game was released and the publicity budget doubled?
The main reason was that Pei Qian did not ask about Meng Chang's publicity plan, so he was instinctively worried.
He immediately dialed Meng Chang's number at that thought.
…
At that moment, Meng Chang was at his desk, continuing to play Mission and Choice.
Meng Chang did not dare to delay and immediately picked up when he saw Boss Pei's call.
"What? You don't want to spend the remaining twenty million yuan? "
"Why?"
Meng Chang was dumbfounded. This was like a bolt from the blue.
In his opinion, the current publicity was going well. The huge sum of money did not cause too much of a splash. The effect of the "classic domestically-produced game compilation" was not much different even if it was not publicized.
He had planned to go straight to AII next week.
Throw in all the remaining 20 million and directly make the final decision, maxing out the commission.
He did not expect Boss Pei to ask him to stop spending money at this critical juncture?
Meng Chang could not accept that.
Pei Qian fully understood Meng Chang's feelings and said earnestly, "I understand your feelings. After all, the results last month were gratifying. The first half of this month was very smooth."
"I'm mainly worried that something will really happen. I'll feel bad as well if you feel bad."
"How about this? Don't spend the twenty million yuan. I'll give you half of the commission. Let's make do with it this month. We'll think about it next month."
Pei Qian could not make it too clear. He was afraid that something would suddenly go wrong with this huge sum of publicity funds. Meng Chang would not get a single cent of commission while he made a killing. Why bother?
Thus, he chose a compromise. He would not publicize it and give Meng Chang a little commission as compensation. It would be good for you and me.
Even though the two of them might not die together if they continued to publicize, Pei Qian had a strong worry. His sixth sense had always been very accurate.
Meng Chang was unhappy at that time.
"Boss Pei, you can't do this! We've signed the agreement in black and white. How can we change it so casually? "
Pei Qian was indeed a little in the wrong. After a moment of silence, he said, "I'm mainly worried that something will go wrong with your plan. The commission will be gone again. It would be a loss."
Meng Chang chuckled in his heart.
Boss Pei, aren't you being too hypocritical!
You clearly saw that the twenty million yuan of publicity funds were about to go down the drain, so you tricked me into stopping. Saving me tens of thousands of yuan in commission was a small matter, but saving twenty million yuan was a big deal!
However, you want me to give in? That's impossible!
It wasn't easy for me to plan so hard for so long. I'm just a step away from success. You want to scare me with this little bit of words?
No way!
Meng Chang said firmly, "Boss Pei, you don't have to worry. My plan is perfect. There won't be any mistakes!"
"Please believe me and abide by the spirit of the contract!"
Meng Chang said resolutely. Pei Qian had nothing else to say.
In fact, Pei Qian could not be sure that there would be a problem after spending the twenty million yuan. He was only vaguely worried.
Since Meng Chang was so determined that there was absolutely no problem with his plan, Pei Qian did not want to make things too unpleasant for an uncertain matter. He could only choose to believe him.
After all, the two of them had the same goal.
Pei Qian nodded at that thought. "Alright, follow the original plan. I won't interfere."
"Good luck!"
Pei Qian said the last four words extremely sincerely.
However, when Meng Chang heard it, he felt that it was a little strange and amiss.
"No, I have to spend this money immediately. If I delay, things might change!"
