Qiu Bin felt his emotions slowly calm down, and felt inconceivable as he looked at the few weibo post that he posted.
"I was too impulsive. What"s wrong with me today that I couldn"t even keep my composure?"
Qiu Bin was slightly upset, but what is done is done, and the words has been said. There were at least tens of thousands of players that have witnessed it, and now it is too late to go back on his word.
He estimate that within a few hours, the news will be spread by the major game media, which might attract the attention of the entire gaming circle and might even become a hot search.
"Alas, I was too irrational!"
Qiu Bin himself is not that kind of hot-blooded youth, he is in his late thirties, if he really is then how can he make 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》?
Of course, he knows that this game had drawn on the ideas of 《Plants vs Zombies》, and it have many place to learn from. If he could have always stayed rational then he would just ignore Chen Mo and just let him insult him.
Due to this huge major trouble, although Chen Mo took a huge risk, but he also have gains!
Previously, Chen Mo and s.h.i.+ Huazhe"s scolding battle was like this, which directly heated up 《Plants vs Zombies》. This scolding battle is much more fierce than the one with s.h.i.+ Huazhe, and this was equivalent to giving Chen Mo"s new game a free publicity.
Qiu Bin himself is a cautious guy and he could not help but feel slightly anxious.
Why can Chen Mo be so confident? Is he really so sure?
Suddenly, the phone of Qiu Bin rang, it was the president of Emperor Interactive Entertainment, Lin Zhaoxu.
Qiu Bin was shocked. How come his boss got alarmed by this matter so fast?!
Qiu Bin cautiously answered it, "h.e.l.lo, president Lin. About my gambling with Chen Mo, this…"
Qiu Bin wanted to explain, but unexpectedly, Lin Zhaoxu immediately interrupted him.
"You did a great job on this matter." Said Lin Zhaoxu.
Qiu Bin, "President Lin?"
Lin Zhaoxu smiled, "This Chen Mo is very good at scheming. He wants to make a free publicity for his new game through Emperor Interactive Entertainment, but why shouldn"t 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》 have this publicity through this trouble?"
"In the next four months, you will do your best to optimize 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》 and add a few new gameplay! When it get release, Emperor game platform will promote it for you!"
"This time Chen Mo came to us, and you answered firmly, which did not shame Emperor Interactive Entertainment. I was worried that you dare not respond due to your cautious nature. You must remember, Emperor Interactive Entertainment are the only one who can pick on others, and no one can provoke us! Whoever disagrees will be crushed!"
Qiu Bin who listend had a surge of emotion, and hurriedly said, "I understand, president Lin!"
Lin Zhaoxu said, "Do your best. Don"t think about it too much, you are a member of Emperor Interactive Entertainment, and Emperor Interactive Entertainment will never lose, do you understand?"
Qiu Bin excited said, "Yes! President Lin!"
After hanging up the phone, Qiu Bin turned from worry to joy. Lin Zhaoxu did not look into his betting, but praise him instead, what does this mean?
Lin Zhaoxu"s att.i.tude is very clear. First, even if this game has indeed copied, it doesn"t matter. With the weight of Emperor Interactive Entertainment in the domestic game circle, they can do whatever they want, and suppressed those that are not convinced! As a game designer of Emperor Interactive Entertainment, he can"t be frightened by this situation!
Secondly, Chen Mo wants to take this opportunity to hype, but 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》 can also take this opportunity to hype. By just taking advantage of this opportunity, and with Emperor game platform promoting it behind and directly giving praise to 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》, how can their publicity be the same?
As for the betting, he can only say that Chen Mo has lost his mind. Emperor Interactive Entertainment is the largest gaming channel in China, if they really want to promote 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》, what can Chen Mo do?
Chen Mo has no chance to win this gamble!
On the contrary, Qiu Bin was somewhat happy when he think about it. He was glad that for some reason, he had lost his cool and agreed with the betting.
Qiu Bin secretly made a firm decision, "Alright, I won"t go anywhere for the next four months and fully concentrate on improving 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》. I don"t believe that with the publicity of Emperor game platform, Chen Mo would still be able to beat me!"
. . . . . . . . . . . . .
On the other hand, Chen Mo has answered several calls.
Lin Mao, Zhao Zihao, and Su Jinyu all called Chen Mo to ask him why he was rash. This bet is too unfavorable to him, it is simply pus.h.i.+ng himself into the pit of fire!
Chen Mo calmly placated them one by one.
The experience shop opened as usual, and Su Jinyu was already waiting at the entrance.
"Manager, you are too impusive. I didn"t know you are such a person who cannot remain calm!" Said Su Jinyu worriedly.
Chen Mo spread out his hand, "Aiya, didn"t we just discussed it on the phone? I was prepared and didn"t act on impulse."
Su Jinyu said, "What did you prepare to go against Emperor Interactive Entertainment?"
Chen Mo nonchalantly said, "You won"t understand even if I say it."
Su Jinyu, "@#¥%&*!!!"
Chen Mo threw a can of coffee to her, "Alright, it doesn"t matter if worst comes to worst. We will develop a new game starting today, with a 4 months of R&D period. If you don"t have any thing important, then don"t ask for a leave."
Su Jinyu said while surprised, "Really? Is there already a draft plan for the new game?"
Chen Mo shook his head, "No, I still haven"t written a word yet."
Su Jinyu held her forehead, "Manager, can you be a bit more reliable!"
Chen Mo said, "Okay, don"t worry. Wait till tomorrow and I"ll give you a task."
"Okay." Su Jinyu reluctantly sat at the counter, "Manager, you have to hurry up! We only have four months!"
"I know, I know." Chen Mo waved his hand and went up to the second floor.
"Will this work?" Su Jinyu said in a low voice, "This unreliable guy is actually the game designer of 《Plants vs Zombies》. It"s incredible…"
. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Back in his studio, Chen Mo did not rush in writing the design doc.u.ment, he first opened the drawing software.
Chen Mo"s concept art skill wasn"t weak, he sketched on the graphic tablet and modify it for 30mins. A cla.s.sic image in his previous life appeared on the computer screen.
It is a silly tauren.
The head is big and have small limbs, it seems to be quite chibi. Both of its eyes are big and have coa.r.s.e eyebrows, it looks upright and cute. It has a large trapezoidal face with 2 small pocket-size ears and horns. And a large nose ring worn in its nostrils.
This is a chibi version of a Tauren, and it doesn"t make people feel childish.
Chen Mo looked at the draft in front of him and felt that something was missing, he thought about it and added 3 black spots under its 2 eyes.
"Hmm, almost done."
Chen Mo nodded.
This silly cattle is a cla.s.sic image in his previous world. His name is MT.
That"s right, the next game that Chen Mo planned to develop is a national-level card game called 《I am MT》.
If it was placed in his previous life, 《I am MT》"s gameplay is already old and not fresh, most of the players are already tired of playing it. However, in the parallel world, players still don"t know that there is a type of game called "domestic card."
Chen Mo is well aware of the strategy of Qiu Bin and Emperor Interactive Entertainment.
《Guardian of the Holy Spring》 copied the gameplay and ideas of 《Plants vs Zombies》. Therefore, Chen Mo has a rough estimate of the profitability of this game.
Even if 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》 has richer content and better publicity than 《Plants vs Zombies》, it will still need to sell it by sales volume. In the end – this kind of game is not suitable for selling value-added services.
If Emperor Interactive Entertainment really change the profit method of 《Guardian of the Holy Spring》, then Chen Mo will further win without suspense.
It is precisely because of this that Chen Mo dares to gamble with Qiu Bin.
In terms of making money, such a stand-alone game is far from catching up to domestic mobile games. It has nothing to do with game quality, it"s all about the method in earning money.
It"s true that 《Plants vs Zombies》 has higher quality and was meticulously made, but in terms of earning money, it can"t compare with 《I am MT》.
A lot of times, the game industry is like this, unreasonable.
