On December 15th, the night before the sale of Netad.

"I'm back."

Ning Hai, Yu Feihang returned to the rental house, and said with a smile as he entered the door: "Tomorrow "Netad" will be sold, and I will finally get the benefits of regular employees!" The editor-in-chief handed over the game experience report to the newcomer who had just joined the company, and the guy was full of excitement, if he knew what happened to me last year, he would have to cry! ”

My girlfriend was preparing dinner in the house and laughed when she heard it.

"Congratulations, what a pity for the teacher's game, you really can't play it without a strategy."

The tragedy brought by last year's "Fate/staynight" is still vivid, because there is no strategy to play directly, Yu Feihang was abused for a whole few days without a good night's sleep, and even in his dreams, he couldn't get rid of the shadow of the death ending in the game. This incident is still fresh in his and his girlfriend's memory, and Yu Feihang feels very lucky that he doesn't have to be responsible for the game experience report of "Netad" today.

"So, are you going to buy Netad tomorrow?"

After serving the dishes, his girlfriend asked while setting the dishes and chopsticks.

"I'm going." Yu Feihang took off his coat, sat at the table and praised his girlfriend's craftsmanship, and replied: "Although I don't need to write a report on the game experience, after all, it is the work of the teacher, and the editorial department wants to make a special feature." So I still have to look at the sales of the game, and I'm going to go to the Longquan game store tomorrow to investigate. ”

Ninghai is a first-tier city, there are more than a dozen Longquan game stores here, branches in all corners of the city, Yu Feihang is expected to be very busy tomorrow.

"I'll buy one by the way." Yu Feihang took the rice from his girlfriend and said with a smile: "Buy it and put it at home, and we'll play together when the strategy comes out!" ”

Although he has a strong psychological shadow of He Xi's game in his heart, on the other hand, he is very obsessed with the game plot of He Xi's hands, as long as there is a strategy, He Xi's game is worth playing. And he is not the only one who thinks so. After dinner, my girlfriend cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Yu Feihang saw a lot of like-minded people on the forum of He Xi's Home.

Anyone who has played Fate/staynight for the first time knows what the concept of the game is, so with a few exceptions, the rest of the readers have made the smart decision to wait for the strategy to come out before playing.

However, there is still a lot of enthusiasm for buying Netad on the forums, and many of the popular posts talk about what version of the game to buy tomorrow.

For example, this post -

Landlord: "The version doesn't have to be considered at all, if you want me to say it." It must be the most cost-effective 18 bans, right? The price is only 1o Huaxia coins more expensive than the whole age, so it's a pity that the teacher's pricing this time is obviously wrong! ”

2nd floor: "The collector's pack includes an all-age version of the game, looking at this situation, Mr. He is obviously biased towards all ages, as a fan of Mr. Ho, I think we should support him to buy the all-age version!" ”

Third floor: "No, no...... I think it's a pity that the teacher shouldn't have seen the shape clearly. Now all kinds of text adventure games are 18 banned versions, which is the same as drugs, after tasting the taste of the 18 banned version, who wants to accept the all-age version? And the gap between 1o Huaxia coins is not big, I think everyone would rather buy 18 bans, right? ”

Fourth floor: "Passing by, the game has no love, but it's a pity to support the teacher!" ”

Fifth floor: "I agree with the third floor. After playing a few 18-for-18 text adventure games, I don't feel like watching the all-age version now...... It's too bland, there is no hcg and plot, so can it still be regarded as a love development? ”

Although the discussion is very lively, most of Yu Feihang's readers are now inclined to the 18 banned game version, he shook his head, this is also a helpless thing, and now the appearance of various h games has raised the appetite of readers. However, in the case of flying. He hasn't played anyone else's work other than the word adventure game, so he prefers the all-age version.

"It's a pity that since the teacher has included the all-age version in the collector's bag, the script of "Netad" must be very good!"

Yu Feihang left a line in the post, he has been paying attention to He Xi for a long time, and knows that the cartoonist will not do things that he is not sure of. Since he dared to put NetAd of all ages in an expensive collector's bag, it proves that NetAd is a game that can be popular with the public without an H plot!

"It must be right......"

With this conviction, December 16. The day of "Netad" sales has arrived.

At six o'clock in the morning, Yu Feihang took his camera and notes, and walked out of the rental room in a thick coat. In winter, the sun has not yet fully risen. The streets were shrouded in white fog, and the distant scene was blurred.

"It's cold." The cold wind blowing made Yu Feihang shiver, he shrank back, frowned and said to himself: "On such a cold day, there shouldn't be many people who come out to buy games, right?" ”

Although he has confidence in He Xi, Yu Feihang doesn't think he will see the kind of bustle and grandeur of the comic shop in the Longquan Game Store - this is obvious, except for some top games that can attract players' enthusiasm for buying, other games in the game industry will not have much repercussions.

Games are games after all, and word adventures are niche in games.

"For Netad, having 10 people buying it at this time should be considered a big success."

Yu Feihang secretly calculated, the game is different from the comics, except for the collector's edition, it almost does not need to be snapped up, as long as there is demand, the game store will keep supply. Therefore, the psychology of readers will not be so eager, plus the sky is not yet dawn, if a Longquan game store can see ten people waiting, then there are nearly two hundred people in the entire Ninghai waiting for sale in the cold wind.

This number is a lot for a word adventure game, and with the greater flow of people after dawn, Ninghai will definitely be able to sell three or four thousand copies of the game today. In the next two weeks, it may break 10,000, and if a city breaks 10,000, dozens of large cities in China, thousands of small and medium-sized cities, all of which are estimated to add up to more than 300,000 or 400,000.

Three or four hundred thousand text adventure games, the income is already very eye-catching.

However, when Yu Feihang came to the first Longquan game store, he felt that his calculation must have been wrong - the number of people displayed in front of him had exceeded his expectations by ten times, and there were hundreds of people waiting in line at the entrance of this Longquan game store!

“1o…… 24…… 57…… 79…… 98…… 113？ ”

The exact number of people in line is 113 people, and if you follow Yu Feihang's calculation method, the final sales of "Netad" will be as low as four or five million copies.

Absolutely impossible - that's the equivalent of second- and third-tier sales of genuine single-player games, and the total sales of all text adventure games in the last three months have not exceeded 3.5 million. Yu Feihang felt that his calculation method had a strict logical error, but no matter what, he could be sure of one thing.

"The game recouped its cost before it was sold!"

"What a pity that the teacher has created another miracle!!" -- In the car not far from Yu Feihang, the bookseller Lu Fei thought while smoking a cigarette.

"Master, master, you're really right, there are hundreds of people waiting here so early!" The young man in the driver's seat next to Lu Fei is called Liu Qiang, and he is Lu Fei's little apprentice. Now he looked at the Longquan game store with excitement on his face and said, "They all got up early to buy games? It's a pity that the influence of the teacher is too great! ”

"That's, otherwise how could I be today."

Lu Fei smiled proudly, his life has changed dramatically because of what a pity.

Two years ago, Lu Fei's occupation was still an underground worker selling yellow discs, and he walked around the pedestrian street with the chengguan all day long. But since He Xi's debut, he slowly changed his career to become a bookseller, selling "Weekly Boy" and "Weekly Girl" around Longquan Middle School for half a year. Later, it intensified, and he began to resell all the works that were regretted.

And just last year, Lu Fei made a fortune by reselling "Fate/staynight"! At that time, the game was on sale, and the Internet was full of criticism, and many dealers hesitated to buy it, but Lu Fei gritted his teeth at that time. I bought the collector's edition of "Fate/staynight" with almost all of my possessions, and I became the person who bought the most money.

As a result, a few days later, the price of that game doubled to several thousand Huaxia coins, and Lu Fei sold the inventory in batches, making a profit of hundreds of thousands at once, and the salted fish was reborn! Now why not release the new game "Netad", Lu Fei recalled last year's experience, and naturally he was excited to do it again.

"Liu Qiang. Hurry up and get in line, be sure to buy the "Netad" collector's bag, there are a lot of peers who want to sell this time, don't mess me up! ”

Lu Fei asked the apprentice to go out and buy the game.

"Okay, master, we're going to buy a few copies this time."

Liu Qiang parked the car and asked while unbuckling his seat belt.

"All ......" Lu Fei raised his eyebrows. He said magnificently: "As long as this store has it, you can buy all the collection bags, and if they have a requirement for the number of purchases, you can ask those people in line to help buy them...... Give them a tip. They will be happy to help. ”

"What!" Liu Qiang, who was about to get out of the car, was stunned, he looked at Lu Fei dumbfounded: "Master, this collection bag is 2oo Huaxia coins, and every Longquan game store has 1oo copies, and it costs 20,000 Huaxia coins to buy them all, and ...... Didn't you let my wife and two brothers buy them all at several other stores? Isn't that enough? ”

If they all bought the collector's edition by the way, the amount would be close to 4oo copies, 80,000 Huaxia coins.

"Master, we don't own a game store, this collector's pack is an all-age version, what if we buy too much and can't sell it?" Liu Qiang is very worried, everyone outside is saying that the all-age version of the text adventure game is not worth much, why doesn't he, the master, seem to mind at all?

"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get me over." Lu Fei glared at Liu Qiang and said, "As a master, I will tell you another truth." ”

"What truth?"

Liu Qiang asked strangely.

"You remember, this is the secret of wealth!" Lu Fei spit out a puff of smoke rings and slowly spoke: "This truth is very simple-"

"Don't use common sense to measure what a pity teacher, his works rarely come out in limited editions, but if they are limited, you will never lose money if you buy them!"
