Chapter 653 653. Game is a big hit
In the past two days, there has been a new topic in the gaming circle, that is, cultivating immortals.
And this word comes from the craze of "Gujian Qitan". It only took two days for players to go from doubts before the game was released to the current enthusiasm.
When it comes to graphics, "Gujian Qitan" is definitely better than "The Legend of Sword and Fairy IV", but it is still far away from those 3A masterpieces. The reason why players are so fascinated in such a short time is naturally due to its gameplay.
The rich game rewards brought by hundreds of side quests have given players countless surprises during the game, and Zhang Yajun has also brought the essence of the story of the Legend of Sword and Fairy into "Gujian Qitan". The main quest is ups and downs, and the stories of the side quests are also exciting. Some of the characters in the side quests are so vivid and likable that many players have gone to the official website to call for more plots for these characters.
Players' favorable comments continued online, which undoubtedly attracted more people's attention. The pre-sale of this game was only about 100,000, and it sold about 70,000 copies on the day of its release. The sales data of 170,000 on the first day was very good for a domestic stand-alone game. This result even exceeded Zhang Yijun's previous best-selling "Legend of Sword and Fairy IV".
However, the real surprise came the next day.
Before leaving get off work that night, when Zhang Yijun got the sales figures, he couldn't believe his eyes.
"This is true, are you sure you didn't put an extra zero?" Zhang Yijun asked the sales staff in front of him and confirmed again.
The staff was also very excited, nodding his head and confirming: "Boss, it's true, I didn't believe it at first, and I confirmed it three times over there, and I guarantee that there is no problem, this is the number."
"Hahahahaha!!!" Zhang Yijun took the sales data of the online platform and laughed happily on the spot.
In the data report that he waved in his hand, the data in the sales column was clearly written, a full 100,000 sets, and the six-digit sales volume blinded Zhang Yijun's eyes, and his hands holding the data sheet were shaking with excitement.
The sales figures on the second day really surprised him, and this was only the online sales, not the sales data of physical stores. Finally, and most importantly, this day has not ended yet, and this data may still rise.
He really didn't expect that there would still be a big increase on the second day of the game's release. Now all the actual sales data added together Zhang Yijun felt that it must be more than 300,000. For a domestic stand-alone game, it really feels like a dream to achieve such results in the first two days.
Zhang Yijun even felt a little emotional. If the Legend of Sword and Fairy IV could have such sales at that time, I'm afraid that Shangruan would not have disbanded. However, everything is about fate. If Shangruan had not disbanded at the beginning, they would not have had the opportunity to find a good boss like Nie Wei, let alone think about the current glory.
"This data came in time. You did a good job. I'll give you a credit. Now go back and continue to collect the data. When I go to work tomorrow morning, the final sales report for today's 24 hours must be on my desk." After laughing enough, Zhang Yajun first praised the staff member, and then told him to go to work in high spirits.
After the staff member left happily, Zhang Yajun immediately picked up the phone on the table and called Nie Wei.
"Boss, good news, our "Gu Jian Qi Tan" has exceeded 100,000 online sales from midnight to now!" The moment the call was connected, Zhang Yajun's expression was exactly the same as that of the staff member who had just left, both of them looked like they wanted to ask for credit.
Nie Wei on the other end of the phone also showed a look of surprise and asked: "Have you confirmed the data?"
"It has been checked three times, there will definitely be no problem." Zhang Yajun replied quickly.
"Very good, really very good, congratulations, Zhang, you and your partners have made a very successful game that players love. In addition, I would like to inform your game team that the company will soon prepare a celebration banquet for you. You are the heroes of the company!" Nie Wei said happily.
This news made Nie Wei very happy. Although the game is not his main business, as a game fan, he still hopes that one day he can see a 3A masterpiece that will make the world friendly in domestic games, so Nie Wei seems to be very generous in investing in this area.
Now that the investment has finally paid off, Nie Wei also has a sense of relief and feels that he has taken another step towards his dream.
"Boss, thanks to you, I have seen the good reviews from players. Many of them are praise for the new content, and those are also your suggestions." Zhang Yajun was very happy to be praised by Nie Wei, and of course he did not forget to flatter Nie Wei, and even attributed the main credit to Nie Wei.
Because he knew that these credits would eventually return to him. After all, Nie Wei was the big boss, and these credits were of no use to him. He just wanted to make himself happy. As long as Nie Wei was in a good mood, wouldn't it be easier for him to apply for game production funds in the future?
Anyway, Zhang Yajun was calculating in his heart.
"Haha, I received your flattery." Nie Wei laughed and exposed the long flattery without hesitation. The teasing words made Zhang Yajun on the other end of the phone blush.
"Lao Zhang, you have worked hard for two years on Gu Jian Qi Tan and have done a great job. The recognition of players is the biggest reward for you, but you can't get too excited because of your current success. You can be happy, but you can't get lost in this achievement, because you still have a long way to go."
"I believe you know better than me how big the gap is between our domestic games and foreign games."
"So remember to ask the staff to keep an eye on the players' feedback at all times, and confirm and solve any bugs as soon as they are found. Making games is like doing business, and both require word of mouth. We did a good job at the beginning, but we can't let players find fault with the service."
After the joy, Nie Wei did not forget to tell Zhang Yajun a few words, asking them not to be overwhelmed by this achievement. Zhang Yajun also hurriedly said that he would do it as instructed and do better.
After Nie Wei hung up the phone, he found that Cheng Kun and Chen Qiaoen were both looking at him curiously.
"I'm here to tell you the good news. The new game is selling well." Nie Wei explained with a smile, and Cheng Kun and Chen Qiaoen immediately said congratulations.
Chen Qiaoen also asked Nie Wei curiously if it was the "Gu Jian Qi Tan" she had been playing recently?
"How is it? Is it fun?" Nie Wei asked her with a smile, wanting to hear her feedback.
"It's quite interesting. I've been playing this when I have nothing to do in the past few days." Chen Qiaoen replied.
Nie Wei was very satisfied with this answer, and did not ask Chen Qiaoen about the details of the game. He quickly skipped this topic. The main reason for the three of them to get together was to discuss the idol drama, because Nie Wei had mentioned before that this TV series would be filmed in Taiwan. After hearing this news, Chen Qiaoen felt very upset, and her expression showed a trace of worry from time to time.
"Nie Wei, there are some problems between me and the original company in Taiwan. I'm afraid that he will cause trouble when we are filming in Taiwan." After struggling for a moment, Chen Qiaoen decided to confess, so she found an opportunity and told Nie Wei about her worries.
"Tell me in detail." Nie Wei asked seriously with confidence.
Chen Qiaoen did not hide anything. This time, she told Nie Wei and Cheng Kun all the means by which her boss banned her, and pointed out that the other party had unusual connections in Taiwan, because these were problems that could not be avoided.
The reason why she did not elaborate when signing the contract before was mainly because Chen Qiaoen did not think that she would return to Taiwan so soon at that time, but the opportunity came so soon.
After that, Chen Qiaoen looked at Nie Wei carefully, observing his reaction with worry.
After all, this matter was the trouble that Chen Qiaoen brought to Nie Wei. She felt that if she encountered such a problem, she would be very angry.
Chen Qiaoen was even ready to be scolded, but Nie Wei's answer stunned her.
"Now you only need to concentrate on adjusting your state, and when the script is written, you can concentrate on studying the script. Even if you go to Taiwan, you only need to concentrate on acting. The rest is not a problem you need to consider." Nie Wei listened carefully to Chen Qiaoen's words and told Chen Qiaoen seriously.
Cheng Kun on the side also interrupted and said with a smile: "Qiao En, with Huayi and Nie Wei as your backers, you just need to focus on acting."
"Yeah!" Chen Qiao En nodded wildly, really moved by the words of the two.
She was particularly enjoying this feeling of being protected at this moment. This was really something she had not seen for a long time. Thinking about how she was hidden and isolated in her original company, and then forced to do variety shows, and finally even paid the penalty for breach of contract and was banned by the company, that kind of power suppression and unscrupulous means made Chen Qiao En live in fear. The new company is also very strong, but it is very different from the original company.
Its strength comes from its strength, just like what Nie Wei said to her when signing the contract, Huayi will not force any artist to do something he doesn't want to do. Huayi will only put opportunities in front of you to see if you are willing to accept it.
Now, Chen Qiaoen was moved by Nie Wei and Cheng Kun's remarks, which made her compare the two companies from the bottom of her heart. They were completely different. Chen Qiaoen had already developed a very deep sense of identity with the new company.
This sense of identity came from the company's generous treatment, the company's strength, and the company's protection of artists. This sense of identity even exceeded Chen Qiaoen's original company where he had worked for several years.
At this moment, Chen Qiaoen felt fortunate that she had the courage to get rid of her former company, and fortunate that she believed in Nie Wei and found the mainland, and even more fortunate that Nie Wei appreciated her and gave her the opportunity to join this big family.
At the dinner that day, among the three people, only Chen Qiaoen drank too much. No one persuaded her to drink, but Nie Wei and Cheng Kun couldn't stop her. Chen Qiaoen got herself drunk completely.
Seeing Chen Qiaoen sitting in her seat, curled up like a kitten and mumbling something in Martian language, Nie Wei and Cheng Kun smiled bitterly at each other.
"What should we do?"
"If we carry her out like this, it will definitely be the headline of tomorrow's news, right?" Nie Wei asked, stroking his chin.
"I think it will be on the hot search of blogs tonight." Cheng Kun answered without hesitation.
In order to avoid trouble, the two finally decided to ask two female colleagues from the company to send Chen Qiaoen back to the dormitory.
The next morning, the sun was shining on Chen Qiaoen's buttocks before she woke up from her drunkenness.
Sitting on the bed, Chen Qiaoen was a little confused. It was obvious that her memory from the time she got drunk to now was somewhat disconnected. However, five minutes later, Chen Qiaoen, who was covering her face, wondered why she had to think about those lost memories. It was so embarrassing to find them back.
She even had the idea of not knowing how to face Nie Wei and Cheng Kun again.
However, this girl was also very generous. She only struggled for a moment and soon became happy about the good news she got at dinner yesterday. She could finally film again. The key partners were still Nie Wei and Cheng Kun, and the script was also written by Nie Wei. Although her role was a little special, she believed in Nie Wei. Nie Wei's scripts, whether it was a TV series or a movie, had not failed so far.
And what was interesting was that she still had to go back to Taiwan to film this time. She really wanted to see the boss's expression when he saw that she could return to Taiwan to film so soon. I believe it must be very exciting.
Of course, for Chen Qiaoen, the most important thing at the moment was to announce the good news to her family and friends.
Chen Qiaoen first called her parents, and it was still her mother who answered the phone. As soon as the call was connected, Chen Qiaoen shouted happily: "Mom, I'm going back to Taiwan."
This unclear sentence scared Chen's mother, who thought her daughter was having trouble with the new company again.
"Daughter, what's wrong? Aren't you doing well over there? Why do you want to come back?" Chen's mother asked anxiously.
"Mom, I'm going back to film. The company has a drama co-produced with the TV station in Taiwan, and I'm the heroine." Chen Qiaoen knew that the other party had misunderstood when she heard her mother's tone, and she quickly explained.
"Is it true?" Chen's mother widened her eyes in surprise and subconsciously questioned.
Chen Qiaoen grinned and replied: "Of course it's true. Nie Wei personally invited me to dinner yesterday, and I'm telling you, this time it's Nie Wei who's acting with me. Are you surprised?"
"Really?"
"Really!"
"Really?"
"It's really true." Chen Qiaoen confirmed again tirelessly.
This time, there was no more inquiries from the mother on the other side. It was very quiet, but Chen Qiaoen listened carefully and heard a slight sobbing sound.
"Mom, are you crying?" Chen Qiaoen asked tentatively.
"No, Mom didn't cry. I'm just so happy that you can come back. Mom and Dad miss you very much and are very happy that you are living so well now. When you come to the treasure island, you must invite Nie Wei to your home. Mom will cook the best food to entertain him and thank him for taking care of you." Mother Chen said while wiping her tears.
Thank you Zhuge Junyu for the generous reward of 600, thank you Jiaran for the generous reward of 500, and thank you Lianhua Palace for the generous reward.
