Chapter 3 Accidents and Public Relations
As for the reason why he came to him, Tong Hao could guess it. It was just that Lin Muchen activated the terms of the contract, which made him feel a little uneasy and went to him specifically to find out the truth.
Thinking of this, he suppressed a smile and felt that Yang Tong was being too cautious.
After all, he was transferred from the "Gun Fighting Heroes" project team, so he should be very clear about the urinal nature of the broken game.
He, the airborne leader, felt that there was no need to rescue him. Would Yang Tong, the chief planner, not know this?
Of course, these words were just said in the heart. The smile on Tong Hao's face did not change, and he even became a little more eager: "It's not a big deal. It just so happens that the plan submitted by that kid has an electronic archive. I will send it to you now.
."
"Isn't this... not good?" Yang Tong was embarrassed to act the same way.
"What's this? It's not a secret!" Tong Hao waved his hands indifferently, with a bit of sarcasm on his face, "Besides, what secrets does that crap game have?"
"Thank you very much!"
Yang Tong was overjoyed, rolled his eyes, and said: "I heard from my father that because he had not produced results for a long time, his superiors were very dissatisfied with Hua Yuansheng, the general manager of the development department, and wanted to remove him..."<
/p>
......
The improvement progress of "Gun Fighting Heroes" is not going smoothly.
First, the above-mentioned transfer order transferred nearly half of the programmers to other projects, and the development progress suddenly slowed down.
Then the art department frequently rejected Lin Muchen's requests for manuscripts on the grounds that they were busy and other projects were more important.
If Lin Muchen still can't see the fishiness in this, he's really a fool.
No need to think about it, it must have been done by that bastard Tong Hao.
Although he was angry, he had nothing to do. Just as he could exercise his contractual rights, Tong Hao was at least on the surface exercising his rights as deputy manager normally.
The solution is also very simple, just find outsourcing, but the problem is that there is less than 30,000 yuan left in the development team's account.
With this little money, let alone outsourcing, it is difficult to buy music.
He had no choice but to ask his boss for help.
Although he had a bad relationship with a certain fool, he was not the only manager in the development department.
In the general manager's office, Lin Muchen spent ten minutes briefly explaining the views and advantages of free online games.
Hua Yuansheng looked at the plan and touched his chin thoughtfully
Although what he said is really exciting, leaders must have their own judgment.
"How sure are you?"
Lin Muchen took a breath: "More than 90%."
In fact, he wanted to say 100%, after all, this is something that has been verified.
"So confident?" Hua Yuansheng smiled, this young man is a bit interesting.
"After all, if I don't do it well, I have to lose money." Lin Muchen joked.
"Well... you are right," Hua Yuansheng nodded in agreement, "Let's do this. I will approve another 200,000 yuan for you. This is the greatest support I can give you."
p>
Lin Muchen was overjoyed: "Thank you, general manager!"
"Don't thank me, thank you for planning the case well and making it logically logical. At least I didn't find any faults."
"Actually, this counts as an investment. The development department hasn't produced a decent hit product for several years. I hope you won't disappoint me."
"Just go ahead and do it!"
......
Once you have the funds, the next step is to find an original artist.
In order to save money, Lin Muchen is not going to find a big company or a well-known painter to cooperate.
He remembered that the original owner's sister was studying at university in Beijing, majoring in painting.
Who else can be more effective and cheaper than the university animal?
But before he took action, bad news suddenly came from the project team.
"Chief planner, I don't know who leaked the closed beta data of our game. Now there is a lot of criticism on the Internet, all aimed at us."
Hearing Wu Weiming's hasty words, Lin Muchen frowned.
Not everyone can get the internal test data, generally only the boss and members of the project team know it.
The current members of the project team will definitely not do such a thing. We are all in the same boat, and there is no benefit to doing so.
Is it Yang Tong or Tong Hao?
Lin Muchen logged into the country's largest social platform [Sky] and saw that the entry "Gun Fighting Heroes" was ranked as the tenth hot search.
"The user retention rate is 5%, and the negative review rate is 80%... I'm shocked, this is Longcheng Entertainment's game?"
"Disappointed! Domestic games can only achieve this level!"
"Upstairs, don't talk nonsense. This is a game imported from abroad. Dragon City's self-developed FPS games are not so miserable."
"Highly recommend "Legend of Gunslinger"! The picture quality and gameplay are even better than "Force of War"! As for "Gun Fighting Heroes", he is not worthy of carrying his shoes!"
Lin Muchen looked over one by one and felt that almost all of the comments under this hot search were made by trolls.
After all, the gesture of stepping on one and holding one up is too obvious, and even stepped on "Fire of War".
Aren't they afraid that the game will be liquidated by "Force of War" players after it is launched?
"Chief policy, what should we do?"
Wu Weiming was worried. The quality of the game was not very good to begin with, but now it has become a public opinion issue.
When the game is released, who will play their game?
"Don't worry."
Lin Muchen comforted him, his brain working rapidly, thinking about how to publicize it.
It's definitely not possible to hire a navy. Lack of money is one reason, and the poor quality of the game is also a reason. If you hire a navy, you don't know how to brag about it.
Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and thought of a sentence: "Sincerity is the greatest nirvana."
He quickly opened the official blog of "Gun Fighting Heroes" and edited a paragraph after hesitating for a while:
"Dear players, the problem of 'poor results in the internal beta test of Gunfight Heroes' that has been circulated recently on the Internet does exist. There has been a big analysis of the game production ideas, and we are actively solving this problem. Chief designer Lin Muchen would like to express his sincere gratitude to all those who support "Gunfight Heroes"
Players of Heroic Soul express their deep apologies."
"But please rest assured that the game modification is already in progress and is expected to be launched for free on September 25th. All players can play it for free. Players please believe in Dragon City and the "Gun Fighting Heroes" project team."

"In addition, each game has its own advantages and characteristics. It is not advisable to ignore each other. The "Gun Fighting Heroes" project team will uphold the attitude of fair competition, make games with heart, serve players with sincerity, and treat opponents with respect."
Editing completed, published!
Wu Weiming was dumbfounded: "Chief, are you going to release the news that the game will be launched for free now?"
There is really no way out!
Lin Muchen had a relaxed look on his face: "It doesn't matter if we say it sooner or later. Now that someone wants to trample us to death and divert traffic to our own games, we might as well just go along with the flow and stir up the topic. This is free traffic. If it's not right, it's not right."<
/p>
"You have to remember that games are not afraid of being scolded, but they are afraid of not being popular. Black and red are also popular, and black and red also have traffic. As long as the attention increases, do you still worry that no one will play the game?"
Chapter completed!
