Chapter 583 Subtle influence
582
Host a video game football match and the winner will be rewarded with a year of free drinks in the bar.
This was the idea of the bar owner's son.
In addition to being a loyal gamer, he is also a person who likes the new and trendy e-sports very much.
He will watch every StarCraft match on the Internet for the first time.
And when Super Soccer was officially released, and he played the game for the first time, he was deeply attracted.
Along with being attracted, there are many old friends who come here to drink every day.
These guys used to be a little dismissive of FIFA football games, they still felt that such games were not realistic at the time.
The cheering in the FIFA football game is very stiff, which makes people feel very fake, and the players are actually slightly less smooth in the movement adjustment.
They were just curious about this new form of entertainment at the time, but soon they were no longer interested, and such games were not enough to arouse their interest.
But when Carson was willing to share his game console in the bar, so that more people could experience another game called Super Soccer Game, the old guys at the bar and the gangsters completely lost their minds. I don't want to leave the bar anymore.
And this has also led to a rise in the bar's alcohol sales.
Not only that, the young gangsters who usually like to smash, smash, and rob when they have nothing to do are actually very quiet now.
Because of the advent of video games, their energy seems to have been completely drawn to the past, and they have forgotten about fighting.
So it can be seen from this that these gangsters who fight frequently don’t really like to fight, they just have no other way of pastime, and video games completely suppress their previous urge to fight, or completely consume them , so that they have no interest in fighting anymore, and now all they can think about is how to play a fun super football game.
Today, I, the Bayern Tigers, are going to kill you Barcelona weakling!
Of course, these people were not always so peaceful.
The latent violent nature still occasionally makes them **** off when the game fails.
They want to vent their anger, and then go to sabotage.
A guy did it once.
Because the team he controlled lost, he smashed the handle directly on the TV screen in a frenzy.
The black screen and smoke that the TV screen fits very well, and the handle is also smashed.
Then everyone stopped playing games that day.
Then, the furious guy who broke the game console was beaten up by a group of other angry people, and even a few very honest guests went up to make up for it.
It can be seen how much public anger the game console was damaged.
Later, the bar owner didn't say much, and spent money to buy a new and bigger TV, and a few spare controllers. Seriously, this loss is compared to the previous group of guys who like to fight every day. The things that came out were simply not worth mentioning.
And then no one dared to say anything about consoles and TVs.
They can now play games in front of the TV very honestly, and no one will have any oversteps.
It was at this time that the young bartender thought of giving the football game the whole game.
Of course, the gimmick of the competition is just to add some attractiveness and income to your own bar.
But I didn't expect that all the men, women and children who were interested in football in the whole town came to the bar.
Children have milk to drink, women have sweet wine, and men and old men have good beer.
For a while, the bar's turnover rose again to a whole new dimension.
For the people of the small town, watching a familiar team win under their own control in a video game is completely different.
As if the team belongs to you, you are the soul of the team.
Thanks to the polishing of every detail in the Super Football Game, this football game has achieved an unparalleled sense of reality. No one will feel bored after playing the Super Football Game. This is the charm of the Super Football Game.
The rapid increase in sales has naturally inspired Songqiao, who is already stationed in Europe.
This is a small stage of success. When the sales in the past few weeks were not as good as FIFA, she has always been very calm, and she has never responded much in the face of the opponent's bombardment.
But it's different now.
Football games have gradually become the talk of European people. They are amazed that there is such an interesting new form of entertainment in this world. Teams can be controlled by themselves, and these teams are also based on real teams. The sense of substitution is stronger.
Immediately after, Matsuhashi began to use the money he earned to invest heavily in publicity again.
Don't look at YOO's early FIFA publicity, which made sales soar rapidly.
But now Youxing Electronic Entertainment has continuous capital injection, and the money earned is used to promote and continue to expand its influence.
Slowly, the talk of people began to focus on the super football competition.
And these are subtle, unless there are very professional market researchers, it is really difficult to notice this invisible change.
As for Nagao Yu, he continued to immerse himself in previous successes and did not recover.
Maybe it might be too late when he really comes back to his senses.
Immediately after, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment’s second game for the European market was officially released, that is, Counter-Strike.
This time, Counter-Strike is not only released on home console platforms, but also on PC platforms.
Like the United States, the PC share in Europe is also very large.
And the DOS system used by the Morgan Group is also used here.
After the cooperation with Morgan Group, the optimization of Counter-Strike is very good, you don't need high computer performance to easily drive the game of Counter-Strike.
Through the Battle.net system, you can also fight against players all over the world in real time, which also allows Counter-Strike to quietly open up the second battlefield.
With the previous Super Football Tournament as a foreshadowing, the sales of Counter-Strike in the first week are obviously much better than before.
By the end of the first week, the sales of Counter-Strike had reached 930,000, of which 500,000 were consoles and 430,000 were personal PC platforms.
This time, the first-week sales combined directly surpassed the shooting games on YOO.
The advantages of multi-platform seem to be slowly emerging.
And this time Matsuhashi's ammo is much more than before.
Zhu Yuxing made a direct stroke of the pen and asked all the money earned from selling games in Europe to be handed over to the European branch for management. If it's gone, ask me for it again.
