Chapter 957: The News Of The Remake Of ‘Fantasy Battle’

The employees were all busy in the office of Bunny Tail’s live-stream.

As a new department that had just started, it was not easy for it to achieve its current results. The few promotions brought a lot of popularity to Bunny Tail Live-Stream. Thus, the employees were filled with enthusiasm and excitement.

There was still a lot of work to be done for Bunny Tail Live-Stream, including the optimization of the website, the signing of contracts with various streamers, the arrangement of recommendation spots and promotional activities, the business cooperation with other related companies, and so on. All of these were long-term work.

What’s more, even though Bunny Tail’s 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 huge the plate size of the live-stream industry was. Now that Bunny Tail Live-Stream was developing so well, as long as they worked hard to turn Bunny Tail Live-Stream into the industry’s dragon head, would the bonuses be lesser?

However, this scene made Pei Qian very worried.

Even though Bunny Tail Live-Stream was still far from making money, being popular was still a huge hidden danger!

Pei Qian went straight to Chen Yufeng and prepared to discuss the future direction of Bunny Tail Live-Stream with him.

Chen Yufeng was a little surprised to see Boss Pei. “Boss Pei, Boss Ma isn’t here 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 you were the one who did all these. It had nothing to do with Old Ma!

With Old Ma’s brain, could he have thought of an unofficial commentator for Bunny Tail live-stream? Could he negotiate with other platforms and Long Yu Corporation? Could he somehow generate 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 the reason why Bunny Tail Live-Stream ended up in its current state was definitely related to Chen Yufeng!

Thus, it did not matter if Old Ma was around today. Pei Qian mainly wanted to reverse Chen Yufeng’s train of thought.

The two of them sat down in the guest room. Pei Qian sipped his tea and said, “Has Bunny Tail Live-Stream forgotten its original intentions?”

Chen Yufeng was stunned. “Why do you say that, Boss Pei?”

Boss Pei’s question made him panic. How could he have forgotten his original intention? That sounded a little harsh!

Could it be that something had gone wrong with his work recently and made Boss Pei unhappy?

Pei Qian said earnestly, “Recently, all of you have placed your focus on the E-Sports competition. First, it’s the real-time data of the GPL. Then, it’s 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, actually, we have also done some new functions for the learning content of Bunny Tail Live-Stream. For example, we made two special zones for the entertainment content and learning content of Bunny Tail Live-Stream. We also made replays for various knowledge-based live-streams so that we can watch them repeatedly…”

“In addition, there is a focus mode in our plan. Under this mode, it would be equivalent to the effect of a self-study room. You cannot quit for a period of time after entering it. It would help to improve the learning efficiency.”

“These functions will be released in the future.”

“The reason why I’ve been focusing on the E-Sports league recently is mainly to show my advantage and absorb as much attention as possible for the platform…”

Pei Qian was stunned.

He did not know that since these functions had not been released.

However, Pei Qian quickly reacted and continued speaking earnestly. “That’s not enough!”

“Even though the entertainment mode, learning mode, and focus mode have added a time limit to the focus mode, as long as they don’t enter the learning mode and focus mode, wouldn’t our platform be no different from other live-stream platforms?”

“It’s impossible to expect the audience to consciously learn knowledge. They would definitely spend all day in entertainment mode, watching competitions and live-streams.”

“Our platform obviously has so much professional knowledge, so many scholars are giving lectures, but many users are only watching the live-stream of the competition. They leave after watching it. It’s like entering a treasure mountain and returning empty-handed. What a pity!”

“Therefore, all of our users must have compulsory learning requirements!”

“We should divide them into adults and minors based on the user’s age.”

“Minors have to be limited to 1-3 hours to use in the entertainment mode. At the same time, close all the charging windows.”

“Adults are not restricted in using the entertainment mode. However, be it adults or minors, they have to use the learning mode or focus mode for an hour before using the entertainment mode. They can only look at the content of the entertainment mode after the time is up!”

Chen Yufeng was shocked. “Huh? Boss Pei, this… isn’t this a little inappropriate?”

“Most people are already very busy with work. They want to watch the live-stream and relax after work. In the end, we even forced them to use an hour-long learning mode or focus mode. Even though it can be solved with hang-ups, it undoubtedly created a huge obstacle for users!”

“That way, people would definitely prioritize watching live-streams from other platforms.”

“If we were already in a monopoly position, we could consider doing so. However, our market share is still very low…”

Pei Qian smiled. “I know all that.”

“However, we have to bear social responsibility for live-streaming!”

“Bitter medicine is good for the disease. The other live-stream platforms provide purely entertainment content, while our platform provides a lot of learning content. If we don’t make such mandatory regulations, who would really have the motivation to take the initiative to read these learning content?”

“It’s 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 understand our good intentions!”

Pei Qian’s righteous words rendered Chen Yufeng speechless.

He could only sigh. Boss Pei was indeed a different entrepreneur!

Take the previous Fish-Catching Take-Out for example. Apart from Boss Pei, who would have thought of paying such a huge price to give up so many potential users to support the garbage sorting and protect the environment?

Even though the leftover kitchen garbage that was decomposed was just a drop in the ocean compared to the entire city’s garbage, and the investment and results were not proportional at all, it was a feeling!

It would be the same if he forced all the users on the live-stream platform to use their learning mode or focus mode this time. Even though it would cause the platform to lose a large number of users, as long as the users of the platform persevered and took out an 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!”

After arranging for Bunny Tail’s live-stream, Pei Qian went to Fish-Catching Internet Cafe to have a cup of coffee and rest.

The new function for Bunny Tail’s live-stream was relatively simple. Since they had already done the focus mode and learning mode, adding a little restriction would be very fast.

He should be able to enter the focus mode next month and force users to use it for an hour every day, dissuading a large number of viewers.

At that thought, Pei Qian relaxed slightly.

He had just calmed down and was about to think about the other businesses when his phone rang.

He glanced at the caller ID. It was from He An.

“Hm?”

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 made a sincere suggestion. “Use the peripheral materials of the game and create a new game. We can still salvage some losses. Otherwise, we will lose all our hard-earned money.”

Pei Qian was elated when he heard He An’s judgment. He was waiting for the sales volume of Mission and Choice to die and incur huge losses.

However, why was He An calling this time?

That was because generally speaking, He An did not like to make phone calls for no reason. Since he had taken the initiative to call, something must have happened.

However, ‘Mission and Choice’ had not been released yet.

Pei Qian picked up the phone. “Hello? Teacher He, what’s the matter?”

On the other end of the line, He An’s voice was very serious. “Boss Pei, have you been paying attention to the news in the American games industry recently? The latest news in the morning?”

Pei Qian was confused. “Huh? What news?”

Pei Qian had not paid attention to the news of foreign games in the past, much less recently. What new games were released overseas that could not affect Pei Qian’s losses? What was the point of paying 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 in the scope of your plan.”

“Boss Pei, you have to be mentally prepared for what happens next. Don’t be too agitated.”

Pei Qian was confused. “What is it?”

He An paused for a moment, and then said, “The Fantasy Battle is going to be remade. A promotional video has been released. I heard 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 for a moment. “‘Fantasy Battle? The ‘Fantasy Battle’ that was produced by the company that made Starcraft 2?”

He An: “Of course, which other ‘Fantasy Battle’ was there!”

“Boss Pei, you should be very clear about the status of this game in the history of RTS, right? It would not be an exaggeration to call it the most successful RTS game in history alongside the Galaxy series and the Command and Conquer series. Especially with the same IP and the extremely successful MMORPG game, Fantasy World…”

“Boss Pei, I know that ‘Mission and Choice’ has invested a lot of money. You are also very confident in your own game. However, this is not a joke. There’s no need to go head to head with it. In any case, hundreds of millions of R & D funds have been invested. It doesn’t matter if you wait for two more months, right?”

He An spoke earnestly and earnestly.

Ever since he played DEMO for Mission and Choice the last time, He An had been feeling uneasy every day. It was as if he could foresee the tragic state of the sales after the game was released and 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 knew what he was doing and reluctantly relaxed.

However, when he heard that Fantasy Battle was going to release a new edition this morning and that it was going to clash with the release date of Mission and Choice, He An immediately lost his cool!

The original idea of the game had originated from He An after all, even though he was spending Boss Pei’s money. What’s more, he had invested so much money into it. He had to bear the heavy responsibility of ‘washing away the shame of the game’. 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 the ‘Fantasy Battle’ will be released? I’ll release it on the same day.”

He An was stunned. After a few seconds of silence, he said, “Boss Pei, are you serious? Not only did you not avoid it, but you even took the initiative to clash with it?”

Pei Qian pondered for a moment and said, “We don’t have to be on the same day. It’s enough to be around the same period.”

He An :”…”

“Alright, Boss Pei. Since you’re so confident, I won’t say anything else.”

“However, I suggest that you go online and watch the promotional video of ‘Fantasy Battle’ before making a decision.”

After hanging up, Pei Qian’s mood improved.

Pei Qian had not been in a good mood because of the Deposit Fitness and Bunny Tail live-stream. Now that he heard the good news, he was elated.

Alright, the conditions were all the right. How could that not be making losses?

If there had been a slight chance of success at first, it would definitely have been smashed to pieces now that it had clashed with the remake of the Fantasy Battle, right?

Pei Qian came to this world on September 17th, 2009. His memories before he transmigrated were ten years ago, which was 2019.

He remembered that there had been news of “Magical Beasts Struggle 3 Released Version” at that time. However, Blizzard had always liked to skip votes, so it jumped to 2020. Thus, Pei Qian had not played it.

However, this did not affect the quality of the game from the updated video. Even if it could not become a masterpiece, it should not be a problem to reproduce the classic, right?

After all, it was a classic game. The game’s mechanism was perfect. As long as they changed the graphics and added more good CGs, wouldn’t it work?

Of course, this world’s “Fantasy Battle” was not the same as “Magical Beasts Struggle”. What’s more, the remake had been made seven or eight years earlier. It has changed a lot.

Thus, to be on the safe side, Pei Qian decided to take a look at how the remake promotional video was going.

He opened Aili Island and quickly found the video.

“Dong! Dong!”

An axe was cut deeply into the tree. Rain pattered in the sky, and the rumbling war drum sounded. In the Orc camp, the laborers were cutting wood diligently.

“Ding ding ding…”

The urgent sound of the bell rang throughout the human town. The farmers who were mining gold came to the town hall and picked up iron swords, armor, and shields.

A line of words appeared on the screen: “In development—Art and special effects are not the final effect.”

The image was pulled up. The camps of humans, orcs, elves, and other races appeared on the screen one after another. Looking down from the screen, the busy farmers, bustling towns, and the assembled army were ready to fight.

The screen zoomed in and more details appeared.

The muscles of the orcs, the thick plate armor of the human knights, the flames rising from the demons…

All of these details were clearly displayed in front of the players. Coupled with the passionate music, it made their blood boil!

Immediately after that, every model that had been redone before and after was displayed. The heroes that he knew so well had all turned from mosaics to high-definition models. They looked ten times more handsome.

“A re-created character and animation!”

“A brand new map and battle!”

“New upgraded interface and map editor!”

“4K high resolution!”

“High-definition remake, return of the king!”

The bullet screen comments were filled with ‘awesome’ sounds.

“This cold rice smells so good!”

“What a nice warning!”

“Buy them out of stock! Are you still human if you don’t buy it?”

“Gosh, the quality of this animation. Don’t tell me we’ve got to change computers again?”

“Buy a map game editor and give it to the game!”

“Don’t tell me they’re going to use the game engine of Galaxy 2 to remake it? That would be awesome!”

“It’s time to buy more tickets. We’ll still buy it no matter how much it costs!”

Pei Qian was completely relieved after watching the promotional video and seeing the players’ reactions.

There was definitely no problem!

This was a project that could be completed with one’s feet. Why would he worry about not being able to complete Mission and Choice?

The video was so good, the audience’s feedback was so good, and it was a company that produced so many premium games. How could the game be bad?

Mission and Choice would definitely make a loss!
