The streamers broadcasting "Frost and Snow Project", even if they are blocked, can start broadcasting again in a few tens of seconds, and the penalties are not cumulative.
But the super administrators of "Mirror World Story" show no mercy when banning streamers.
Gong Feng had to urgently contact major live streaming platforms, hoping they could make an exception.
At least make an exception in this October.
However, after some male streamers were banned, and a large number of male streamers urgently stopped broadcasting to avoid trouble, another interesting phenomenon appeared—
The traffic generated by the massive promotion expenses of "Mirror World Story" was taken over by female streamers!
Playing female characters would result in the live broadcast room being banned due to revealing clothing.
But—
The super administrators don't care!
Male characters baring their chests, showing off their strong pectoral muscles and perfect abdominal muscles, is not a problem at all.
Male streamers feel disgusted playing them and would rather not broadcast.
Female streamers, however, become more and more engrossed in playing them, raking in the traffic.
Unsuspecting passersby and netizens who see this even think that "Mirror World Story" is a game for women.
Female players are ecstatic.
—In fact, since "Frost and Snow Project" became popular, many female players have been expecting a game on the market that could rival "Frost and Snow Project" but specifically cater to female players.
They often made wishes to Dream Creation, hoping to create a "Frost and Snow Project" for female players.
Unfortunately, Dream Creation never responded.
Now, Konjac Games has met their needs—even if it's only half of their needs, they have gathered in droves.
In addition, Dream Creation also helped promote it during the first test, sending a large number of female players over.
Now, the number of female players in "Mirror World Story" is quite considerable!
Strictly speaking, these users were cultivated by Dream Creation and given to Konjac Games.
Fei Zhiyuan was very happy and specially posted a message on his WeChat Moments, sarcastically "thanking" Xu Meng.
However, Xu Meng was busy with the global release of "War of Kings", and even if this WeChat post was spread online, she didn't bother to pay attention.
She patiently watched Fei Zhiyuan perform.
… …
… …
In the following two weeks, even though they continuously encountered endless troubles such as live broadcast reviews, game bugs, and internet water army attacks, with the project team's crazy overtime work, "Mirror World Story" still maintained its vigorous momentum.
Fei Zhiyuan pressed on the attack while winning.
He once again invested tens of millions of marketing funds, frantically throwing money to expand the momentum.
The male streamers who had temporarily stopped broadcasting also returned under the lure of the incentive plan.
Even if they only used the protagonist and male characters, completely avoiding the erotic female characters, they had to persist in broadcasting.
The live streaming platform also made a small concession:
Violations will still be banned, but the penalty records will no longer be accumulated and will be uniformly deleted after November.
This is the power of money!
As for the attacks from unknown internet water armies…
There was no need to spend extra money, the very strong female players scolded them back.
Some friendly business partners expressed concern:
"The scale of 'Mirror World Story' is even larger than that of 'Frost and Snow Project'. Such radicalism may attract a heavy blow and affect the entire industry."
Male and female players worked together and scolded them back mercilessly.
They kept scolding until they closed the comment section.
Some gaming media also analyzed: The various measures of "Mirror World Story" are greedy and are simply cutting players' leeks.
Male players felt that this made sense and thought it was not a good sign.
But the female players scolded back again: "We are willing to spend this money, it's none of your business!"
Some social media also published articles discussing:
"The character scale of 'Mirror World Story' is so large, and there are no restrictions on underage registration like 'Frost and Snow Project', I am afraid it will have a negative impact on the physical and mental health of minors."
The female players scolded back again and again:
"Don't use scapegoating to cover up the incompetence of parents in education!"
… …
Anyway, just scold!
Whoever comes to scold will be scolded, invincible!
Fei Zhiyuan and Gong Feng had always been scolded by players, when had they ever felt such firm maintenance?
They were all moved to tears.
They also specially issued an announcement to thank the players for their love.
It wasn't until the male players of "Mirror World Story" began to complain that "the plot is written like a female-oriented novel", and felt that there were many logical problems in several places, which triggered disputes, that they began to regret it a little—
Huan Yue bluntly complained on the spot during the live broadcast:
"It's amazing!"
"Dream Creation hired male-oriented harem novel writers as planners to write the plot for 'Frost and Snow Project'."
"Konjac hired female-oriented novel writers to write the plot for 'Mirror World Story'."
"It's just too… too amazing!"
Huan Yue took a lot of effort to swallow the word "too f*cking much".
"I can understand you imitating Dream Creation, it's okay to learn from successful people, there's nothing wrong with that."
"But you can't just copy it like that, big brother!"
—The "Mirror World Story" project team is not stupid, of course they will not completely imitate it one-to-one.
Their operation is:
Simultaneously hire male-oriented authors and female-oriented authors, each responsible for the plot of female characters and male characters.
The main plot is discussed and determined by the plot team leader together with both parties.
In Gong Feng's view, this is a win-win approach that can simultaneously please male and female players.
Unfortunately, the final result is: a large number of male players completely couldn't hold back and frantically complained about the plot logic and contradictory character settings.
Then the female players followed the habits they had developed over the past half month and scolded back again!
But this time the situation is very different.
Players of second dimension games are not easy to bully, regardless of gender!
The two sides then started a debate.
The debate was inconclusive.
The two sides then started a scolding match.
The scolding match was still inconclusive.
Then, they entered the classic stage of checking backgrounds and personal attacks.
… …
The two sides argued more and more fiercely.
Gong Feng was extremely anxious and urgently held a meeting in the office to discuss how to quell the conflict between the two sides.
The solution finally discussed was—
On the grounds that "the game is still under development and does not represent the final product", admit that the plot still has imperfections and will be adjusted before the official release.
The latest novel is first published on 69shuba!
But before the operation team could write the announcement, the boss Fei Zhiyuan suddenly intervened.
He flatly rejected this "meaningless" announcement and directed the operation team to take advantage of the situation to do a wave of black and red marketing.
Under Gong Feng's uneasy attention, the situation became more and more serious.
But the revenue was actually not affected much!
It even attracted a large number of new players to download the game to taste these controversial plots.
Gong Feng sincerely complimented him.
Fei Zhiyuan was in a great mood, and the next day he asked his assistant to contact the restaurant and hold a celebration banquet in the company.
At noon, he raised his glass and took the lead in drinking—
"Everyone has worked hard!"
"'Mirror World Story' will end its test in a week, but now, we can already draw a conclusion—"
"'Mirror World Story's' unlimited number test was a great success!"
"I know that many people feel sorry that it didn't surpass 'Frost and Snow Project' in one fell swoop."
"But everyone must also realize that: 'Mirror World Story' has achieved 38 million downloads and over 700 million revenue before it has been launched!"
"How much was the revenue of 'Frost and Snow Project' in the first month of its launch?"
"Less than 10 million!"
"Give 'Mirror World Story' some time, and we will definitely be able to catch up!"
"I have full confidence in you, and you must also have confidence in yourself!"
"I'll propose a toast to everyone first!"
Fei Zhiyuan was in high spirits, and his report of good news, prospects, and chicken soup successfully excited the employees present.
After everyone drank a glass of wine, the atmosphere quickly became warm.
Fei Zhiyuan picked up the second glass of wine and said to the person on his right hand side: "To the success of 'Mirror World Story', we must especially thank our art director, Mr. Okamoto Yoshimori!"
"His character design skills have convinced me!"
"Thanks to his wonderful design, 'Mirror World Story' can achieve its current results."
"Let's toast—"
Fei Zhiyuan was halfway through his words when Kong Zhuoran, the operator on duty, suddenly pushed the door open with a "bang", ran quickly to Fei Zhiyuan, and said in a panic while handing over his mobile phone:
"Boss! Something bad has happened!"
"This little devil… I mean, Mr. Okamoto Yoshimori, he was exposed as a heavy-taste doujinshi artist!"
"The players are all in an uproar!"
"Especially those players who like Xingyue!"
Kong Zhuoran was sweating profusely.
He had already realized the seriousness of the problem—
If it was just that he had drawn doujinshi before, then the problem would not be big.
Dream Creation also openly invited the doujinshi artist [Yaya Didn't Wear It Today] to design characters.
But the person drew pure love doujinshi!
Okamoto Yoshimori drew heavy-taste doujinshi!
It's still a heavy-taste loli doujinshi full of massacre and sexual abuse themes!
This is not the same thing at all.
The problem is big!
Especially—
Now the most popular character in "Mirror World Story" is also the character that fills the type gap of "Frost and Snow Project"—[Lingyu Flower · Xingyue], who is a cute loli.
Even more frightening is that:
This character in the plot is a "wandering in the gap between life and death", "misunderstood by passers-by and adventurers as a ghost", and "forgotten her past tragic experience" loli girl!
This poor little girl has won the love of almost all players.
Before, when a large number of male players expressed dissatisfaction with the plot, they harshly complained about these settings, thinking that it was not right to bully a loli like this.
And because of the war between male and female players and Fei Zhiyuan's black and red marketing, this matter is almost well known.
And now, this information has been strung together by the players!
Violently raped, abandoned in the wilderness, the soul lingers…
Fei Zhiyuan doesn't know these details yet, but this does not prevent him from making the right judgment:
"Immediately suppress the heat!"
Kong Zhuoran stood still.
He glared at Okamoto Yoshimori with hatred, and said helplessly and sadly: "It's too late."
"I don't know why, this news swept all social networks, all player communities, and all game forums in an instant."
"At the same time as we saw it, at least tens of millions of players also saw it."
"It's already… impossible to suppress."
Fei Zhiyuan squeezed the wine glass in his hand tightly, looking at Okamoto Yoshimori, who couldn't understand Chinese and looked blank, his eyes gradually turned red!
Staying up too late, the intercostal neuralgia is acting up again…
Plus a cold and sore throat, it's really hard to bear.
Everyone, please take care of your health, keep warm, and stay up late less.
—Thank you [Yuehua] for the 200 points reward.
Thank you [Lilia] for the 100 points reward.
