Chapter 371 Live Show Operation
In the memory of Zhuyouxing’s previous life, the promotion of StarCraft 1 was not particularly violent, because the birth of StarCraft 1 was full of twists and turns, and Blizzard at that time had no money to promote a game.
But even so, StarCraft has achieved unprecedented success and has become an e-sports enlightenment game in the hearts of countless people.
And in this life, Zhu Yuxing has sufficient resources.
From Morgan Group, to Zhuyuxing's own channels.
The major department stores, as well as the current social leader Facebook in the US Internet.
These channels are used to carry out indiscriminate propaganda, and StarCraft can be said to be the pinnacle of debut.
Zhu Youxing couldn't remember the exact number of sales in the first week of StarCraft in his previous life. He only remembered that after 13 years, people's statistics of StarCraft 1's sales were 11 million.
This is just a video game logged on PC.
StarCraft 1 has naturally become one of the top-selling games on the PC side.
In addition to these genuine sales, the real StarCraft players will only be more than five times more than this figure, which was really regarded as an absolutely successful video game at the time.
On the day of the release, Li Mingzhe and other people came to the core sales stores of StarCraft in different big cities in the United States.
The decoration of the entire store has turned into a starry sky today, and boxes of exquisitely packaged StarCraft cartons are stacked in the center.
Li Mingzhe is sitting in front of a huge screen.
In front of him is a high-end computer that has been debugged.
The screen performance of StarCraft 1 has also been improved to the extreme under such computer performance.
At this time, Li Mingzhe was so excited that he was ready for the exhibition competition at any time.
Now he is using robots to practice his hands. With his skilled operation, he can calmly deal with even a one-to-many situation, and he can also take the opportunity to play a few pretty cool dazzling effects.
Finally, the release time officially arrived, and many players rushed into the store quickly.
They rushed to the area full of StarCraft boxes at the first time, then took away the game with quick eyes and hands, and then quickly sprinted to the checkout area to check out.
The most enthusiastic of these are naturally some players who play traditional board games.
Since they watched the promotional video of StarCraft, they wanted to buy this game immediately.
Commanding soldiers and manipulating them to fight fierce battles is their dream, and video games can make their dreams come true, so they all seem impatient.
Soon the checkout line was lined up outside the store.
These players have long been accustomed to this.
Because any game released by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment does not have a time when the queue is low.
Even that kind of puzzle game of backgammon has people lining up to buy it at the first launch, which is outrageous.
During this process, some players will take out the GBA handhelds they carry in their pockets and line up while playing, which used to be a good thing to pass the time.
But at this moment, several large screens inside and outside the store lighted up, and there was a scene where Li Mingzhe was playing a game.
"Hey! Look up and look at those screens!"
Some players shouted excitedly.
Those players who had bowed their heads and played GBA patiently were also taken aback. They raised their heads in confusion, not understanding what was going on.
But when they saw the picture on the screen, they gradually became a little bit fixated.
The performance of real-time strategy games is not too difficult to understand.
Forty-five degrees oblique, which is the so-called axial perspective, the images of each arm are depicted as detailed as possible.
At the same time, there are also buildings for building soldiers and upgrading them.
This is a game that has just started.
In it, Li Mingzhe is manipulating human soldiers.
Under his operation, a team of soldiers was assembled in just five or six minutes.
Then he quickly manipulated the team to the nearest enemy headquarters just detected, and quickly disintegrated the enemy before the opponent's economy was fully formed, ending the opponent's game.
The quick operation of this line of clouds and water immediately attracted the exclamation of a group of players.
"Wow, is this StarCraft? It looks so cool! Several soldiers collectively charged and took out an enemy army."
"This game is not bad. It seems that my choice to line up today is indeed correct. I deliberately skipped class in order to line up today."
"Hey, the guy in front, are you the ** of the **class? I'm your math teacher. Today, you are waiting for your credits to be deducted. How dare you skip class in front of me?"
"Teacher, I was wrong!"
The student fled immediately, he was a little unwilling and a little helpless.
But he doesn't plan to go back to school immediately, he plans to wait for the teacher to buy StarCraft and then come back by himself.
Hey wait... No, the teacher is also here, so wouldn't he be considered skipping class?
He remembers that the next class is mathematics, does he have time to go back?
Looking at the math teacher's look of anticipation, he knew that the teacher was definitely a loyal gamer.
"That, teacher..."
"Hey, StarCraft is supposed to be fun... eh? Why are you still here? You really don't want credits!"
The math teacher stared at his students.
"I said, teacher, it will be your class later, right? Don't you plan to go to class? It doesn't matter if I lose some credits, I will make it up again, but if you miss class because of the game, it should be more serious than me."
math teacher:"…"
"This student, in fact, I think that you usually have a hard time in class. It's normal to skip class every now and then. I'll turn a blind eye this time, and I won't be able to do it again!"
The student immediately happily returned to the team, and then watched the wonderful operation on the screen with the others.
Under the operation and operation of Li Mingzhe, it has come to the middle of the game at this time.
The four enemy factions he faced this time, one of which he solved by first-mover advantage, but he still had to deal with three enemy soldiers at the same time.
In such a situation, he can still control the soldiers calmly to deal with the battle.
Whenever he can play more with less with skilled operations, it will immediately attract a burst of amazement from the players.
This matchup game can be more engaging than the previous speedrun games.
Because most of the speedrun games can only be enjoyed by real players, but even a novice like StarCraft can enjoy watching the game with gusto. This level is obviously different.
