Chapter 910: Bunny Tail Live Broadcast’s Low Profile Debut!

Wang Xiaobin thought about it for a moment. “Of course, we will not shirk from our duty if our sister department needs it.”

“What’s more, these client-side games would definitely bring more income to Shang Yang Games. That would be good for us as well.”

“However... We have limited manpower. At the moment, we still have the development of ‘Fitness Battle’. It’s hard to guarantee the working period.”

“When will this cell phone be released?”

Jiang Yuan said, “The cell phone news conference will be held in June for now. There are still three more months to go.”

“If you have enough time, it would be best to release these mobile games at the same time as the cell phone is released. If you don’t have enough time, we can only update them after the cell phone is released.”

Wang Xiaobin roughly estimated the working period and the manpower on his side and said, “We don’t have enough manpower. However, Tengda Games might be able to help us share some of the burden.”

“The development of Mission and Choice should be in the later stages. Once this game is completed, they can spare the time to develop the mobile version of Ocean Stronghold. On the other hand, we should have no problem being in charge of the mobile version of The Lonely Desert Road.”

“However, if these two games were to be made into mobile games, they would definitely have to be modified to a certain extent...”

Jiang Yuan was very happy. “I don’t care about that. You’re the professionals. You can decide how to modify them.”

Wang Xiaobin nodded. “Alright, leave this to me. Don’t worry.”

After sending Jiang Yuan off, Wang Xiaobin began to think about how to turn these two games into mobile games.

Strictly speaking, Ocean Stronghold and The Lonely Desert Road were not particularly suitable for mobile games.

Ocean Stronghold would take up a lot of space as there was a lot of plot content in it. The few hours of driving time in The Lonely Desert Road was completely different from the fragmented time of mobile games.

After some consideration, Wang Xiaobin decided that he had to make some modification.

According to Tengda’s habit all, client-side games had to be a dual-terminal game. For example, if players had already bought 888 yuan Red Kilin from Ocean Stronghold’s client-side game, the mobile game would definitely have to be linked as well.

This had been Boss Pei’s orders all along. He would not change it.

That would reduce a lot of income, but it would increase the stickiness of players and make it harder for them to lose players.

To gamers, they could play mobile games and relax when they were tired of client-side games. They could return to client-side games when they were tired of mobile games. Of course, whether it was GOG or Ocean Stronghold, as long as it was a game with competitive elements, the mobile games’ matching system would be separate to ensure fairness.

At the same time, data interconnection could be used to better guide traffic when mobile games were released.

Many old gamers were used to playing client-side games. If the mobile version could not use their client-side game account, these old gamers would definitely not want to work on it again. However, after inheriting the client-side game’s data, these old gamers would probably try it out when the mobile version was released. Some of them might even stay.

As for the income of the game... as long as the gamers stayed, would they have to worry about them not spending money?

Thus, Wang Xiaobin began to think about how to modify the two games under the premise that the client-side game and mobile game data were interconnected.

Apart from the most basic modifications, the gameplay also had to be slightly modified.

Ocean Stronghold had to cut off all story mode and only kept the PvP mode. At the same time, it had to compress the art resources appropriately. The game’s capacity had been greatly reduced under the premise of ensuring that the cell phone’s graphics quality was not too high.

The Lonely Desert Road, on the other hand, reduced the game’s duration from eight hours to two hours. After all, two hours of playing with his cell phone was painful enough.

Then, he would make a few speed maps for The Lonely Desert Road. Each map would take about three to five minutes to allow players to race freely. Otherwise, most players would be sick of playing the game. No one would play it anymore. It would not be able to help Otto Technologies’ cell phone.

After these two games were changed to mobile versions, they were still interconnected with client-side game data and would be free games. When Otto Technologies was released, it could tacitly acknowledge GOG and these two games, highlighting the special characteristics of Otto Technologies’ cell phone.

Wang Xiaobin immediately began sorting out the design documents and arranging the development of these two mobile games.

February 27th, Monday...

Pei Qian had just arrived at his office to check on the various departments when Old Ma knocked on his door.

Ma Yang looked very happy. “Brother Qian, the website for Bunny Tail Live-Stream is almost done. The basic functions have been completed. We have also gone through repeated tests. We can post promotional videos soon!”

“However, we have only completed the basic functions for now. More details are still being done. What’s more, there are no live-streamers for now, so there’s not much content.”

“Brother Qian, do you think we should upload the promotional video now or wait for some time to find a batch of streamers before we upload the promotional video?”

Pei Qian immediately said. “There’s no time to lose. Let’s publish it now!”

Pei Qian was very satisfied with the development speed of Bunny Tail Live-Stream.

The reason why it was developed faster was mainly because Bunny Tail Live-Stream was only doing basic functions at the moment. That was to ensure that the audience could see the streamer’s image and record and playback. The other more complicated functions had not been developed yet.

What’s more, there were not many live-streamers. That was because many people did not know that Tengda developed Bunny Tail Live-Stream.

How could there be live streamers without fame?

Other live-stream platforms would definitely have spent a huge sum of money to poach a batch of live-streamers over. Then, they would start to publicize and generate popularity. The live-stream website’s Beta Testing would also be accompanied by many popular live-streamers. That would make it more popular.

However, Pei Qian had to do the opposite. He would do whatever would not generate popularity!

Bunny Tail’s live-stream only had basic functions. There were not many live streamers and not many viewers. It did not matter. They had to start first.

At that time, everyone would see that the live-stream platform was so cold that it formed the impression that this live-stream platform was not good enough. It would be even more difficult to make a comeback in the future.

Thus, Pei Qian immediately decided to let Bunny Tail live-stream be released without any preparation!

Ma Yang did not feel that anything was amiss. He left Pei Qian’s office happily and went back to urge Chen Yufeng to release the promotional video so that Bunny Tail Live-Stream would be officially debuted.

...

Pei Qian stood up and went to the resting area to get a can of Coca Cola. Then, he quietly refreshed Aili Island’s website and waited patiently.

As expected, Old Ma immediately released the promotional video for Bunny Tail live-stream after he returned!

Pei Qian already knew about the contents of this promotional video. It was about ‘two different lives’. Those who watched the live-stream wasted their time and achieved nothing. Those who did not watch the live-stream used this time to enrich themselves, improve themselves, and successfully reach the peak of the workforce.

This promotional video was Meng Chang’s blood, sweat, and tears. Pei Qian trusted his ability very much.

The audience would definitely be agitated and then criticize Bunny Tail live-stream badly, right?

Pei Qian watched the entire video from beginning to end. Then, he quietly refreshed the comments section to see how the audience would react.

“What does this promotional video mean?!”

“Persuade us to cherish our time and not watch live-streams?”

“Isn’t this a f*cking promotional video for a live-stream website? Are they defaming themselves?”

“...As a lazy university dog, I seem to see myself in this promotional video.”

“Watching the live-stream in the dormitory is too realistic. It’s so real that it’s uncomfortable! I’ve reported it!”

“Who installed a surveillance camera in my place?”

“Aren’t you trying to disgust us? We watch live-streams to rest and relax, but are now being labeled as ‘wasting time’? Aren’t other entertainment activities also wasting time?”

“Does this Bunny Tail Live-Stream want to make a splash in the news? To criticize all its peers? However, it is also a live-stream platform... Isn’t this cursing itself?”

Obviously, the audiences were 30% angry and 70% confused.

The promotional video did not say it explicitly but it hinted that people who were addicted to live-streaming were lazy dogs. It would definitely agitate those who liked to watch live-streams.

However, most of the audience’s attitude was not anger but confusion.

That was because the promotional video seemed to be telling the truth. If they spent too much time on live-streaming, they would waste his time and affect their studies or career.

However, the problem was why would a live-stream platform promote such things? This motive was really puzzling!

The first reaction of the audience was that this “Bunny Tail Live-Stream” wanted to make big news, generate popularity, and promote their live-stream platform.

Being scolded was also a type of popularity.

Everyone had seen the live-stream platforms’ tricks too many times. They would do anything for the sake of popularity. Sometimes, being scolded was better than being ignored.

If their goal was to be scolded to gain popularity, then the best way to deal with it was to not give it any popularity.

Thus, this video was not very popular after it was released. Many people were also criticizing it, saying that Bunny Tail Live-Stream deliberately filmed such a sensational video in order to gain popularity. It looked ugly.

Pei Qian could not help but smile when he saw this.

Good, Meng Chang had some ability!

Not only did they not gain any popularity for Bunny Tail Live-Stream, they even got scolded. Well done!

...

At the same time, Meng Chang, who was preparing the E-Sports promotional video, saw the promotional video of Bunny Tail live-stream on Aili Island.

He looked as happy as Pei Qian.

The situation was great!

The promotional video this time was not very popular. Even if there were comments, they were basically cursing them. He would definitely get a huge commission according to his agreement with Boss Pei!

Meng Chang felt motivated at the thought of the commission. He could not wait to finish filming the E-Sports promotional video so that he could have a double celebration.

However, Meng Chang suddenly saw a new comment after scrolling through the comments section.

“Everyone, don’t be in a hurry to criticize. We’ve misunderstood! Bunny Tail Live-Stream is not trying to ride on its popularity. This live-stream platform is completely different from other live-streams! Everyone, go to the website of Bunny Tail Live-Stream to understand more!”

Meng Chang looked a little lost when he saw this comment.

What was the meaning of this?

Why was Bunny Tail Live-stream completely different from other live-stream platforms?

Meng Chang vaguely felt that something was amiss. He quickly searched for “Bunny Tail Live-Stream”, found the official website, and clicked on it.

After that, he saw a white-haired and energetic old man on the home page. He was using a very easy-to-understand way to teach ancient literature, including ancient poems and some basic knowledge of literature.

The backdrop was a bookshelf that took up an entire wall. There were all sorts of paintings hanging on the side. It was filled with an ancient charm. Obviously, it was the home of this old professor.

There were not many people in the live-stream, but Professor Kong Zhemin did not mind. He smiled and spoke tirelessly as if he was teaching a new student.
