He Yilou frowned.
This is after he has been seeking investment for a month or two.
This is the first time someone has taken the initiative to reach out to me.
Despite the middle-aged man's polite tone.
But He Yilou was in no mood to talk to him at that moment.
Boss Xia Yu thinks highly of him.
He naturally didn't want to disappoint the other party.
I wish I could rush home right now and write down all the plans that are gradually taking shape in my mind.
He Yilou ignored him completely.
The middle-aged man's heart sank.
His worst fears were confirmed.
Obviously, during this half hour...
This young man has already received investment from Xia Yu, the boss of miHoYo.
"Pity!"
The middle-aged man shook his head with some regret.
Although they failed to achieve their goal this time.
But he wasn't too discouraged.
After all, He Yilou's project was just a rather immature tower defense game.
The growth potential of this game type is too low.
It was destined to be a niche game and wouldn't make big money.
If it's lost, it's lost.
The middle-aged man sighed, turned around, and left the hall.
I don't know.
This turn of events effectively severed his connection with this multi-billion dollar opportunity.
So much so that many years later...
When he saw He Yilou, the president of a multi-billion dollar company who had gradually matured, mention his experience of seeking investment everywhere a few years ago in the news again.
Involuntarily, his image overlapped in my mind with that of the naive young man from a few years ago.
At that time.
How much regret he must feel.
Only he himself knows the answer.
……
After the release of two update events that once again set brilliant revenue records, namely "The Last Lesson of Honkai Impact 3" and "Genshin Impact's" Klee banner.
The lively atmosphere of the original Game Developers Festival has not faded over time.
In fact, its popularity has surged again recently.
Many players understand this.
If the January Game Developers Festival is just a preliminary step or a test.
In February, countless major companies capable of producing a second game will deploy their top-tier resources.
In previous years of the China Developer Festival, almost all the games that made it to the finals were created in February.
This includes the previous year's top-selling game, "PUBG Mobile".
therefore.
In recent days.
Players can easily notice it.
The latest games released by those top game companies.
The quality is much higher than in the first month.
Games that generate over ten million in sales on their first day alone.
There are already no fewer than five.
This number.
It's clearly still rising...
for this.
Players are naturally both incredibly happy and frustrated.
Because there are more games.
This gives them more choices.
But this also means giving up some relatively boring games.
Among them are players who prefer competitive games.
I had no choice but to reluctantly reduce my playtime for Honkai Impact 3 and Genshin Impact.
Focus more of your energy on competitive games.
This inevitably led to a decline in player retention and online rates for many of miHoYo's two games.
only.
Xia Yu was not surprised.
When you play a game for too long, you get bored and want to quit.
Naturally, other games are needed to fill the gap.
Mihoyo is not the only company affected by this.
The same applies to games from other game companies.
However, due to the large number of Genshin Impact players.
This is why Genshin Impact's data has dropped so drastically.
Yet despite this.
This game remains firmly entrenched at the top of the sales charts.
No one can shake his position.
……
Compared to Bronya, who looked gloomy at the dinner table.
Xia Yu enjoyed the meal quite a bit.
"Xia Yu! Open your mouth, ah!"
"Brother Xia Yu, here you go."
Alice and Seele, who were helping Xia Yu peel shrimp, sat on either side of him.
Xia Yu took a bite of food and then a bite of food fed to him by Alicia.
She would eat a bite of food and then another bite of food that Xi'er fed her.
He seemed particularly at ease.
Bronya, sitting opposite, was exasperated and sighed repeatedly.
"Xia Yu, are you even listening to me?"
"This is your company, and the player retention rate is decreasing day by day. This may not be a good thing for us."
"If this continues..."
"It might even affect the revenue of these games in the future."
"Why are you still so calm?"
Xia Yu swallowed the food in his mouth.
He calmly countered, "What else?"
"Can I really force players to come back to our game by making a scene?"
"Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3 are games that are very easy to have periods of downtime. Didn't you know these shortcomings two months ago?"
"What's more, Honor of Kings hasn't even been released yet."
"Why are you in such a hurry if I'm not even in a hurry?"
Xia Yu understood this very well.
