The three-day sales of "Mario Bros." exceeded 500,000.

In just a few minutes, this news has detonated the entire gaming industry.

As the saying goes, insiders watch the door, while laymen watch the excitement.

For those who don’t understand the market, they may not know what breaking a record means.

However, in the eyes of many game professionals and senior game enthusiasts, this news is no less than a major earthquake.

I still remember that the last game that broke records was the last one.

This sentence is really not some nonsense literature.

Between the two games "Star Force 2" and "Mario Brothers", no game company dares to come up with a game.

They are not strong-minded. They know that the quality of the game is not good, and they have avoided the industry giant Page Company. They all want to wait for the popularity of Fighter 2 to pass before running out to sell new games.

This resulted in only two companies releasing games throughout October, which just avoided the situation of a hundred schools of thought contending and dispersing traffic.

In the past, various trolling videos appeared frequently because October was a game desert. Marketing accounts could only talk about the games of these two companies if they wanted to eat, which was equivalent to helping Carp Star Card House and Page Game Company free of charge in disguise. Advertised.

In any case, "Star Force 2", a game that is highly valued by the entire industry and all players, only sat on the throne of the 3rd sales champion for a few days before it gloriously stepped down.

It was overtaken by the sudden rise of "Mario Brothers" and was dubbed the shortest game in history.

It has to be said that people who love to play games not only have a strong entertainment spirit, but also tend to be very good at it.

"The old king abdicates and a new king ascends the throne."

I don’t know who was the first to use this loud and somewhat unreasonable slogan.

After that, this slogan began to spread like a worm in major game forums and media websites.

Carp Star Card House, a little calf who is not afraid of tigers, successfully stepped on Page Game Company's "Star Force 2" to take the lead.

Such a valuable title as the "New King" is enough to change everyone's views.

"Playing games without paying attention", "Eager to make money", "Perfunctory"...

All the previous labels that carried doubts, derogatory connotations, and contempt were self-defeating.

On major media websites such as Xiaolanzhan, the number of praising videos gradually outnumbered the previous questioning videos.

However, so far, the traffic Lu Li obtained from the star card master group has been basically exhausted, which means that the sales of "Mario Bros." will not increase significantly in the short term.

Players who are willing to be the first to take advantage of the market have already dug into their pockets, while the rest are staying on the sidelines.

The game conference only showed the first level, and some players were really afraid that the later parts would collapse.

But this is just because the game has not yet been shipped, and players who have purchased the game have not yet received the game.

Based on the delivery speed of "Federal Next Day Delivery" and the delivery efficiency of Carp Star Card House's logistics, the first batch of players will get the game tomorrow, October 21st.

By then, as long as players from all walks of life find the game fun and worth sharing, they will spontaneously contribute a wave of traffic to "Mario Brothers".

After this, players who are waiting will find that this game seems to be really worth buying.

At this point, it’s time for sales to increase again.

Selling a game is like rolling a snowball. It will increase exposure in stages and make the snowball bigger, so that it will continue to be sold.

While players are sitting at home waiting for the game to arrive, major companies are not resting either.

Such a young and promising manufacturer like Carp Star Card House naturally attracted their attention.

Some of them want to use capital to intervene in Xingkawu, because now is the start-up stage of Xingkawu, a high-potential company, and it is the best time for capital to enter the market. If you invest money now, you can win the future at an extremely cheap price. of large profit dividends.

Smarter and more ambitious companies are digging deeper into the identity of game designers.

Currently, they don't know if the designer who created Mario Bros. is one person or a group.

But they know that game designers are the absolute core of this young company and the ones they need to win over.

Various companies with different ideas dialed Yu Xin's number, causing her to not put down her phone all night, and her throat was hoarse.

For these "well-intentioned" temptations and investments, she used the reason that "she is not the top person in charge and cannot make decisions independently".

Until finally, she simply turned off her phone.

Now she just wanted to blow Lu Li's head off with a hammer.

Before this, Yu Xin had never thought that this job would be so taxing on her voice.

...

But at this time, Lu Li was sitting in the training ground of Xinghai Academy watching the game.

The one-day elimination round was coming to an end, and Lu Li, who had been a spectator since the afternoon, watched with gusto.

The last time I watched the card master fight, I was on the ocean, watching the Ryuk team fight against the pirates.

It was dark at that time, and there were multiple people fighting. The scene seemed a bit chaotic, and it was not as clear as what you can see sitting in the training ground today.

In today's knockout round, after a whole day of selection, 24 members of the training team have been selected.

Qiu Mingxue and Lin Miaohan are among them.

However, within the team, there are still "main players" and "substitutes".

This model of competition within and outside the team undoubtedly gave the shortlisted students a sense of crisis and kept them from slacking off.

24 players, 12 main players and 12 substitutes.

However, among these thirty team members, 15 are fourth-level card masters.

Students of this level can be admitted to competitions in non-top universities, but in Xinghai University, they even have to continue fighting for a spot.

"Is it finally the end?" The little fat man held a pen in his hand and looked at the 24 selected students in the field with interest.

Before that, Geng Xiaowen watched almost every battle from noon to night, and wrote down the fighting styles and strength analysis of dozens of students according to his preference.

Again, the students who graduated from Xinghai Academy are all elites among Star Card Masters, and no matter how much they win over, they are all earned with blood.

The 24 students currently on the field are undoubtedly the best in the entire school.

An afternoon of elimination rounds was held in the form of a "challenge".

Each challenger will choose an object that he can win, or an object with a slightly restrained fighting style to challenge.

Such a competition system also resulted in a few of the shortlisted players who had never made a move.

Geng Xiaowen was obviously more interested in their performance.
