For "hero League" this game, Andy is not a senior player in his previous life, not even a general player, but just to understand and be familiar with it.
But this doesn't prevent Andy from understanding that the game's ability to circle money has reached an outrageous level, so outrageous that penguin can't accept other shareholders to follow him to drink soup, so he holds 100% of the game.
One of Andy's problems is that the prosperity of an e-Competition project is determined by the favorable time, favorable place and favorable people. The low threshold, simple learning curve and low technical weight of the game are all the necessary conditions for him to be in the fire.
But it has to be said that if there is no Penguin strong propaganda and operation, the Chinese market will not be so hot. Andy has no way to know, maybe it will be hot, but the speed or scale of the fire will be reduced.
After all, a penguin landing is enough to reduce the threshold of the game many times.
Andy almost agreed to let Penguin act as the general agent of the Chinese Empire at the first moment when he heard the news. As for the matter that Penguin wants to invest in the fist company, as Andy who always holds the cash cow tightly, it's only for penguin.
The reason why penguin can easily get so many shares of the fist company in the past is that the fist company's technical houses are too short of money. In addition, the speed and scale of the game "hero League" is not estimated enough, and it can't bear the pressure brought by the rapid growth of users to the server. In general, either the introduction of investment is necessary There's only one way to die.
At that time, few companies noticed the future potential of MoBa games. As for the acquisition of DOTA, let alone penguin. Even Andy thinks it's an impossible task. NIMA's copyright is too scattered.
That's why Andy dug up the DOTA level ice frog and prepared to make it again. It has nothing to do with DOTA, but it can be regarded as an upgraded version of DOTA2.
The fist company under Andy's income will not develop in accordance with the original development track of money shortage. Since he knows how hot the game will be in the future, he will not grudge enough money for the fist company to develop. Lack of money? It's just something that doesn't exist.
In order to promote and operate the game more vigorously for the development of "hero League" in China, Andy will not completely cut off penguin's thoughts and directly reject the other party's thoughts of investing in the game.
In Andy's words to brandenbeck, CEO of a leading company, he is at the early stage of the company's development and will never raise funds. However, in the future, penguin has priority if the company wants to raise funds.
If you want a horse to run, you must have hope first, and then you can work harder when you are full...
The fist company, which had been silent for a long time under Andy, once again attracted his attention, so he once again visited the fist company near Santa Monica Beach.
This time, the company's exterior has changed a little, the vegetation is more lush, and the environment is more quiet.
Through the entrance corridor, Annie and her statue of tibers stand at the entrance of the company. The bear is not as dumb as in the game. It roars as if it is rushing towards Andy.
"I like this statue!" Andy walked over to see tibers, who was taller than him, and took out his mobile phone, turned to take a photo with the statue, uploaded it to his instagram account, and smiled at Tom Caldwell, one of the founders.
Tom smiled and pointed to a white wall in the hall and said, "in the future, we also want to design a family portrait of game characters by pencil drawing on this wall. If there are fans visiting in the future, they will be very popular."
"Well, that's a good idea. I'll let Marvel's toy company contact you. First, I'll make a doll with a hero and put it in the exhibition hall. It's still a little empty here..." Andy looks around for a week and says, looking at some empty hall.
"Then thank you, boss. This way, please. Bill gillwater bar has been built and operated for a long time."
Andy laughs and walks to the courtyard. Looking at the pirate bar in front of him, he says with a smile, "do you like it here?"
"I like it very much. The staff are very grateful for your generosity and kindness." Tom said with a smile, not that he flattered Andy, but that it was the truth.
"That's good." Andy smiled a little, pushed open the wooden door of the bar and walked in. Facing the dim light, wooden tables and chairs, the mountains of rum bottles in the bar, there were old charts on the wall, depicting the treasures of bilgwot and shadow Island, which seemed to be crumpled by the immersion. It's like entering the real pirate bar.
When Andy and his party came in, seven or eight employees were just like pirates sitting in the bar at will, raising their glasses and drinking. When they saw their boss Tom coming in with others, they didn't pay any attention. But soon someone recognized that it was the boss, so they stood up to meet him.
Andy didn't care, but he had a drink with a few people, talked a few words, and continued to hang out.It's still a clean and tidy office hall, with rows of computers like fan-shaped rows. Some people are busy with earphones, some are chatting with snacks, and a group of people gather to open and kill.
Free and relaxed, Andy naturally knows the character of these technical houses. Only these guys can do the game well and earn him a lot of money. It's just a small idea to support them.
Andy is also itchy. He takes Tom and the low-key ice frog to join the game. Although the number of heroes is still small, it's enough for him to enjoy the game.
It's a horrible game level. Andy perfectly interprets the superb skill of sending people's heads. He makes a group of people behind him laugh. Andy doesn't care. Anyway, he's cheeky, but the experience of the game is very good. It's no different from that of previous generations. It seems that as long as the heroes are developed to a certain number, they can be tested.
During lunch, Andy and the silent ice frog talked about the development of dota2. Andy was very interested in the fact that he was robbed of most of the limelight of Dao tower 2 after a period of time in the evening compared with the hero League.
Andy really doesn't know the real extent of the popularity of several foreign servers, including hero League Meifu. It's said that most of them are from China. Since he can't tell the truth, Andy naturally needs to have double insurance.
Turret 2 is his reinsurance to the European and American market. There are two options. Andy believes that he can circle these European and American players.
Although E-sports was born very early, Andy's ambition is to control all aspects of the professional alliance belonging to the two games through the fist company, and even compose special songs for each live event.
Hold competitions all over the world, set up a complete online live broadcast right, train special personnel to carry out competition commentary and highlight review - establish a game competition channel similar to ESPN TV station of sports.
For Andy, who has AMC TV and Hulu video, there is no difficulty at all. The way to make money is not just to sell skin!
