Chapter 264 Boss Pei Should Be Happy Knowing that b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song’s Popular


b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song had obviously been snuck in like that. Otherwise, how could it have been downloaded 350,000 times immediately after being released?


Everyone looked at one another, shocked and confused. What kind of background did Director Lin come from?


Director Lin had said before that she could obtain recommendation spots in Shenhua’s application store. That was why she suggested changing the game into a mobile one.


Everyone had thought that they would be inconsequential recommendation spots. At the very most, they thought that the game would be displayed on the home page for one or two weeks.


However, it looked like they were all wrong!


w.a.n.g Xiaobin looked in the direction of Director Lin’s office and could not help but feel moved. “All of Tengda’s employees are freaks…”


w.a.n.g Xiaobin had worked in Shang Yang Games for many years; he had pretty good self-awareness.


In such a small city like Jingzhou, one’s exposure would be limited.


w.a.n.g Xiaobin had thought that it was good enough to be the chief systems designer for a web-based game that could generate revenue.


However, ever since Tengda Games bought Shang Yang Games over, w.a.n.g Xiaobin had his pre-conceived ideas crushed into pieces again and again.


They casually poured five million yuan into research and development and then poured another few million yuan into hiring a celebrity to advertise the game. Now, they had even casually obtained such critical recommendation spots on Shenhua’s application store.


w.a.n.g Xiaobin would never even have dared to imagine these things.


Apart from ‘awesome’, w.a.n.g Xiaobin had no other words to describe this.


Soon, many gamers began to leave comments on the game’s details page in the application store. Many people also began discussing the game in forums and groups for mobile games and web-based games.


“Eh? Isn’t this the game that Zha Zhuti advertised?”


“Why did Zha Zhuti produce a mobile game? Awesome, it’s in such an eye-catching position as well. The company is so rich!”


“It seems perfectly logical for the game to earn so much money, given its advertising and the fact that it’s a traditional web-based game.”


“I don’t think so. The game doesn’t have many paywalls.”


“A web-based game with no paywalls? Are you kidding me?” “Who knows? I heard this from others as well. I thought the mini-client was too big so I didn’t download it.”


“You can download the game on your cell phone, then. I don’t have anything to do on the way to work anyway.”


After the game was placed on Shenhua’s application store, many people began to download b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song! On one hand, it was because the game had been converted from a web-based to a mobile one. The entire market was different. On the other hand, long-term advertising had allowed them to acc.u.mulate popularity. In the end, they were able to achieve fundamental change.


The original b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song was a mini-client. Unlike traditional web-based games, people could not open it and play as and when they wanted to. Yet, compared to traditional client-side games, their graphics and operations were far worse.


In addition, their paywall model ensured that they could not generate profits from a limited number of players.


Thus, even though they heavily advertised b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song: The Powerful Version online, they saw negligible results.


Although they advertised both versions of the game, the conversion rate for the mini-client was too low.


If players mistakenly clicked on advertis.e.m.e.nts for other web-based games, a window would pop up; and they would find themselves in the game at once. They could start playing immediately.


If they had nothing better to do, they probably would play the game.


However, b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song: The Powerful Version was completely different. If players mistakenly clicked the advertis.e.m.e.nt, they would be asked to download a 370-MB folder. Most people would close that window immediately.


Now that the game had moved to mobile platforms, the situation was completely different!


At the moment, traditional card games like Ghost General and Qute Three Kingdoms were considered more popular in the mobile industry. More serious games with complicated operations were still in developmental stages.


One could say that b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song was a whole level above the market for mobile games because of its graphics and operations!


It was like in Honor of Kings, when a player who was used to being tortured in the High-King Tier moved to the Bronze Tier and suddenly realized that everyone around him could not play at all.


What’s more-after Zhang Zuting’s commercial became popular, many people formed an impression of the game in their heads.


When they saw the game appear in their application store, players who had nothing better to do became curious.


They could not help but download the game so they could discover the truth behind the commercial. Since the commercial had become so popular, they wanted to see the game’s true colors for themselves.


Once they entered the game, many people who had originally been prejudiced against it realized that it was completely different from what they had imagined!


In the afternoon…


Lin Wan sat in her office, watching the figures increase rapidly. She was over the moon. It looked like changing the game into a mobile one was the right move! Although they could not see much result in half a day, one thing was obvious.


b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song’s mobile version had been the seventh-best mobile game at first, but it was now number six!


It was quite amazing.


Although the mobile version of b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song had been in seventh place on the application store at first, it was only because the staff at Shenhua had created fake figures for it. It was almost the same as buying followers on Weibo.


However, the exact mechanics behind these rankings were vastly different from hot searches on Weibo.


The mobile version of b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song was ranked in seventh place because of fake figures. No matter how unpopular it was, it would still remain in seventh place. It would not descend any further.


However, if its true figures surpa.s.sed seventh place, it could continue to climb!


At first, Lin Wan thought that Shenhua’s staff had adjusted the fake numbers. However, on second thought, she realized that was not logical.


Whether b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song was in first or seventh place, it would still be seen on the charts. Given that there were so many recommendation spots, it would not make any practical difference even if the game was moved up by one rank. The staff had no real reason to alter the fake figures, right?


Lin Wan pondered for a while and decided to contact the staff in charge of Shenhua’s application store. She sent a message to ask about the chart.


The response came almost immediately.


“Director Lin, those are real figures! I thought it was incredible as well, but I just checked with my technical staff. The game made it to top ten on the charts in a single day!


“That’s crazy. I’ve been in charge of Shenhua’s application store for so long, and I’ve seen many explosive games. However, I’ve never seen anything like this!


“I’m going to open two more recommendation spots right now!”


Even through the cell phone screen, Lin Wan could sense that the staff was pleasantly surprised as well.


It was natural.


A single sentence from Boss Yu and the staff had to create so many recommendation spots for the former’s little sister. Although she could not say anything out loud, she must have been cursing in his heart.


People had to pay for these recommendation spots!


Of course, the staff would not have received the money. However, these figures were akin to his report card. Just giving away these recommendation spots for free would affect his own achievements and bonuses.


COIՈՈՈ


He had to forcefully push down many other games and applications in order to give b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song that many recommendation spots. If b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song’s figures turned out to be bad, the platform would lose out in the long term.


However, in one day alone, b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song’s figures managed to blow up to such an extent. The situation was completely different. The staff could not even wait to give b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song more recommendation spots in order to maximize its exposure!


Lin Wan finally felt relieved when she heard the staff’s response.


Great!


Ever since they began researching and developing b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song: The Powerful Version, they had experienced many difficulties and setbacks. All the anxiety she felt dissipated at that moment. Lin Wan felt like the clouds had finally parted, and the sun was finally s.h.i.+ning bright.


She had not let Boss Pei down. She had not given up on her own dreams.


Although she was still a long way from becoming an elite game designer, the mobile version of b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song had proven to be a success. Without a doubt, it was a great beginning!


Lin Wan’s eyes began to well up. At that moment, the person she most wanted to thank was Boss Pei.


Before coming to Shang Yang Games, she would never have imagined becoming the leader of a game company, making important strategic decisions, and leading everyone to success.


Yet, Boss Pei had remained confident in her. He was the one who gave her these precious opportunities to prove herself.


One could say that without Boss Pei’s encouragement, the mobile version of b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song would not have come so far!


At that moment, Lin Wan’s phone vibrated.


She picked it up and saw that it was a message from Boss Pei.


“You’ve been working hard during this period. I’m going to hold a feast for employees of Shang Yang Games on the evening of the 20th. We’ll meet at the same place.” When she saw this message, Lin Wan perked up.


Did Boss Pei already know about the developments?


That seemed unlikely.


It was not expensive to create the mobile version of the game. What’s more, Boss Pei had given Lin Wan free-reign to make changes to b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song. She was only required to consult him if she met with unresolvable problems.


Thus, Lin Wan had not informed Boss Pei about the decision to create a mobile version of b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song. To her, this was a matter she could resolve on her own.


Did someone else report the updates to Boss Pei?


That was unlikely, too. After all, n.o.body stood to gain from doing so.


What’s more, Boss Pei was a busy man. He had many things to take care of. Lin Wan guessed that he would not have the energy to think about Shang Yang Games. Thus, she was quite sure that Boss Pei did not know about the good news.After seeing how hard the employees of Shang Yang Games had been working, he probably arranged for this feast to encourage them.


If that was the case, Boss Pei’s actions were heart-warming!


Shang Yang Games had spent a lot of money and achieved nothing. Other leaders would have been hopping mad by now.


Yet, not only did Boss Pei remain calm, but he also treated everyone with kindness and acceptance. He even wanted to encourage everyone with a feast!


Lin Wan was moved by this good leader. She immediately replied, “Alright, Boss Pei!”


Boss Pei may have been busy at work, but he had always paid a lot of attention to Shang Yang Games.


While they were researching and developing b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song: The Powerful Version, Boss Pei contributed to the game’s name, gameplay, and advertising method.


Lin Wan would give Boss Pei a huge surprise during the meal. She would tell him that b.l.o.o.d.y Battle Song finally rose from the dead. Losses had turned into profit. Boss Pei should be happy knowing that, right?
