Chapter 1536 We Really Don't Lack Money! (Happy Dragon Boat Festival!)

After the promotional video, there is also a demo video.

Compared with the promotional video, the trial video is much simpler. It is Yan Qi who controls the protagonist, using four methods of Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and soldiers to eliminate the demons in a small border village.

Before entering the village, use Taoist medicine pills and talismans to give yourself various buffs, and then arrange formations to attract all the nearby monsters. With rich pre-war preparations, you can easily defeat a large number of monsters.

However, neither the formation nor the talisman could last for too long, and more monsters continued to emerge.

The protagonist takes down the spear from behind and fights the monsters directly with military means, and shoots bows and arrows from time to time, hitting the monsters who are doing magic in the distance.

If the previous Taoism focused more on preliminary preparations, then this time it has become an action game that requires reaction and operation. The protagonist uses all the weapons available around him to fight the monsters and kill the core area of ​​the village at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, the protagonist encounters more and more powerful monsters. Some monsters wrapped in layers of resentment will not be hurt by ordinary swords at all, so the Buddha's light on the protagonist's body is flourishing, and the skin of the whole body turns pale gold. The dark devilish energy melted quickly like an ice cube meeting the scorching sun.

In the end, facing a powerful evil ghost, the protagonist launched the Confucian Investigator and saw that the weak points of the evil ghost were the red horns on the head and back. Cut off the sharp corner!

Immediately afterwards, some other scenes appeared later, such as the battlefield full of corpses, the burning monastery, the border town that resisted to the death, the Huangquan Road between Yin and Yang, and so on.

It's just that these scenes just passed by in a flash, and it didn't take as much space to describe as before, but just showed a scene.

This demo video is a live battle in the game. The four combat methods of Taoism, Buddhism, Art of War, and Confucianism, including the use of various weapons, various moves and actions, are vividly displayed.

As a senior action player, Yan Qi played it several times before he could achieve the most satisfying effect.

However, he did not show all the most exciting content in the game. He just chose some moves that can highlight the characteristics of the four genres. After all, the deeper combat system, more combat scenes and monsters, and more complex game plots, It is still necessary to wait for the game to be released, so that players can experience it by themselves.

The combination of the promotional video and the demo video has already given players a general understanding of the content of the game "Xiaoli". The current feedback from the players can basically predict the situation after the game is released.

Of course, the premise is that the development is successfully completed, and all the content you want to do is produced, and you can't use a semi-finished product to fool players.

"There is a clear difference from action game benchmarks such as "Return to the Shore" and "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation". It can be regarded as having made its own characteristics, and I don't know if players will like this approach." Yan Qi was a little worried.

He also opened this promotional video on the Ellie Island website, but after all, the video has just been released, so there is not much enthusiasm yet.

Yan Qi didn't care, he was going to continue playing the game's DEMO, look for bugs, and come back to watch it later.

This time, he and Chaolu Game Platform did not invest too much resources in hype, but only made a few basic recommendation columns, because they wanted to see the real feedback from players.

If players like the video of "Xiaoli" very much after discovering it, it will naturally spread quickly and cause huge popularity, which proves that the game "Xiaoli" is on the right track.

Now that a lot of resources are invested in publicity, the real popularity and false popularity may be mixed together, so it is difficult to clarify the real popularity of "Xiao Li", and naturally it is not easy to find its problems.

After another hour or so, Yan Qi submitted two bugs.

No way, today is the weekend, and the efficiency of finding bugs is too low.

Yan Qi didn't care too much, and continued to come back to watch the comment section of the "Xiao Li" video.

"It stands to reason that there should be some enthusiasm. After all, I still bought some basic recommendation slots, and it was posted with the official account of Chaolu Game Platform. There will always be some natural traffic, right?"

"Huh? There is indeed traffic, but it feels a little bit wrong."

"Where does so much heat come from?"

Seeing the popularity and discussion of this video, Yan Qi was shocked.

Just over an hour after it was released, the video of "Xiaoli" has already been pushed to the top of the game channel's list, and according to this trend, it is estimated that it is only a matter of time before it hits the homepage!

Not only that, but Yan Qi discovered that the keyword #红离# was also a hot search on Elli Island’s website and Weibo!

This is outrageous!

And he took a closer look and found that the keyword #米离# was a hot search on Weibo, and it seemed that he bought it...

Because this keyword is ranked fifth on the hot search list, and this position was basically occupied by some celebrities before.

What's more, with the current popularity of "Shu Li", it has not reached the level of the hot search at all. Passers-by don't know this, but Yan Qi himself knows it well.

"What's the situation? Zhaolu Game Platform bought me a hot search by the way?"

"No, they didn't notify me about this? Besides, they don't work on weekends at all!"

Yan Qi was completely puzzled.

He originally wanted to see the natural popularity of "Xiaoli" and determine the players' first impression of this game, but the plan was completely disrupted!

Yan Qi hurriedly clicked on the comment area and various forums to check.

"Another domestic 3A masterpiece is about to be born?"

"This scene, this action, this combat system, it's okay! I really want to play it, when will it be released?"

"Do you want to monopolize it on Chaolu Game Platform? Awesome! Chaolu Game Platform finally has an exclusive 3A masterpiece! Congratulations!"

"I just said that this kind of cultural heritage can only be grasped by domestic game producers. The Chinese-style games made by foreign game companies are simply superficial and unreliable!"

"I heard that this game seems to be still under development, but it lacks development funds. This time, I probably want to use this video to raise money."

"That's right. This team used to work on mobile games. There must be insufficient funds to make a 3A masterpiece of this size! Where is the crowdfunding or pre-sale entrance? I will pre-order a copy and do my best for the development of domestic games." A meager force!"

"It seems that there is no pre-order, maybe the producer doesn't want to take the money from the players."

"Then there is no company investing in such a good project?"

"Heh, it's not like you don't know the urgency of these domestic investment companies. Stand-alone games are like sinkholes for them. Who will invest? Who will let their money go to waste?"

"Hey, it seems that several investment companies are willing to invest in this game?"

"Aren't these companies from the 'Anti-Tengda Alliance'? Fuck, what a joke, is that investing for "Xiaoli"? It's obviously investing for the disgusting Tenda! Anyway, I don't believe these people have such good intentions!"

"That's right, I hope the team of "Xiaoli" won't take this money... If you really need money, you can ask players to pre-order it. If you take money from this kind of company, there will never be peace in the future!"

"These companies have said that they will not interfere with the normal development of the "Mili" project. And I think that this matter is irrelevant. If "Xiaoli" fails to achieve the most perfect effect due to a shortage of funds, This is definitely a loss and a pity. If the investment from these companies can give us an additional excellent domestic game, then why not do it?"

I have to say that the popularity of "Xiaoli" has really risen too fast. From the Elli Island website to the hot search, and then to the major game forums, it almost sparked discussions among players at a speed that Yan Qi had never expected. upsurge.

It's just that this kind of discussion seems a bit weird to Yan Qi, as if something is wrong.

Why... the focus of everyone's discussion seems to be on "investment"?

Why did everyone presuppose that the "Mili" project was short of money?

It stands to reason that after a normal game player sees the promotional video and demo video, the first reaction should be to discuss the game's style of painting, combat system, plot, story background, etc., and by the way, say that as soon as the game is released, it will be sold immediately.

They generally don't particularly care about whether the game developer's funds are sufficient.

This is also normal, why do players care about this? Not a shareholder of the developer. As long as the game is fun for the players, it is enough to spend money happily.

What's more, the "Mili" project is not short of money!

Yan Qi was very puzzled, where did the news of the lack of money come from? There are still so many people discussing?

Could it be that……

Yan Qi strung together all the recent events and suddenly realized where the problem was.

The anti-Tengda alliance is trying to recruit companies to join, and as far as Yan Qi knows, some game platforms have already been drawn in.

Two days ago, Nie Yunsheng personally came to Jingzhou to invest in Yan Qi, but Yan Qi declined.

And after the video of "Mili" was released, there was suddenly a lot of heat on the Internet, and two investment companies in the anti-Tengda alliance expressed their willingness to provide investment for "Mili"...

The occurrence of these things was really too coincidental and too coherent, Yan Qi was not stupid, so he naturally thought of it.

Obviously, the anti-Tengda alliance should have never thought about how to cover it up. After all, their purpose is to get Yan Qi to accept investment by inciting public opinion.

"Good guy, I begged my grandpa to sue my grandma for investment, but no one was willing to invest. Now that I don't want it, they even came to me and insisted on giving me the money?"

"It's outrageous!"

If it was relying on these investment companies, then the project "Xiao Li" would never have been born, let alone reach the current level.

But many things are so contradictory. These investment companies are all masters who don't see rabbits and don't spread eagles.

Yan Qi also couldn't laugh or cry, on the one hand, it was because the attitudes of these investment companies had changed too obviously before and after, and this face was too ugly;

He had already made it so clear to Nie Yunsheng, why didn't he believe it?

"Forget it, let's make another announcement to clarify."

"How many times do I have to say it before you can believe that I am really not short of money?"
