Xuanwu Company, President's Office.
Li Xingzhou put down the report in his hand, leaned on the soft leather office chair, and lamented: "That's outrageous."
It is true that he could not get accurate sales data of Pokémon in the whole region, but as a local snake in Jinling City, there was no problem in getting a report on the sales trend of Pokémon in Jinling City.
The development trend of Pokémon is very outrageous.
Generally speaking, after a game is released, its sales curve will first show a downward trend.
Then, in nearly half a month to a month, if the game is good enough, it will attract more new players and usher in a second growth peak.
For example, Carp Star Card House's previous work "Mario Brothers" is a very typical example.
"Star Wars" also complied with this law. In the seven days after its release, sales showed a slight decline.
However, the report shows that for seven consecutive days, the number of Pokémon users in Jinling City has been rising, and there is even a trend of getting stronger and braver, showing no sign of fatigue.
This shows that Pokémon is a game that continuously attracts new players and has the motivation to keep players playing.
Li Xingzhou turned to the second page of the report.
——The number of online players in "Star Wars" is also showing a downward trend.
"Sure enough, the plot is still too short?" Lao Li tapped his fingers on the table, his eyebrows furrowed into the word "Chuan".
The magnificent space opera main line of "Star Wars" has indeed been praised by players, but its flaws are still obvious.
That's too short.
Generally speaking, players can complete the entire main storyline in 9-10 hours. Some serious players even completed the entire ending of the main story and collected all achievements in just 20 hours.
Although "Star Wars" was promoted as "the first online battle game", and its battle module is indeed not bad, but compared to the super excellent plot, the battle design is still a little clumsy. .
In addition, after the game is released, it will be a working day within two days, so the number of online players will naturally decrease.
"How about... we can make up for the main plot of the fourth mission this week?" Li Xingzhou turned his eyes to the computer screen. On the lower right side of the homepage, there were two words titled "Fourth Mission" and "Fifth Mission". Tasks" folder.
Xuanwu's games have always been fragmented since ancient times.
This is not to say that subsequent content is not ready, but that Li Xingzhou likes to release patches at the right time to extend the popularity and lifespan of the game.
After thinking for a long time, Lao Li still couldn't make up his mind. He glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already eleven o'clock in the evening.
"Let's go back first. There is no need to rush to make decisions in a protracted war." Li Xingzhou stood up, put the belongings on the table into the storage card, and walked out.
...
Xuanwu Company was named "Xuanwu" because there was a large lake with the same name next to the company.
The bright moon hangs in the sky, and the comfortable evening breeze touches the reflection in the lake.
This wonderful scene is a solace for Li Xingzhou after get off work. It allows him to briefly escape from the busyness and enjoy a moment of peace.
However, today's Xuanwu Lake does not seem to be very peaceful.
As soon as Li Xingzhou walked out of the company gate, he saw several cars parked in various directions by the lake. The dim light balls of lighting cards floated in the air, illuminating the faces of a dozen middle-aged people.
They held fishing rods in their hands and were fishing happily on the shore.
"Why are there so many fishermen coming to Xuanwu Lake to fish today?" Li Xingzhou muttered.
He was not surprised. After all, there were a lot of old fishermen in Jinling City, and even in the entire Jiangnan Province. They would always pick up their fishing rods and go fishing for one reason or another.
Just as Li Xingzhou was about to walk to the subway station, he heard the roar of the engine.
Lights flickered in the distance, and five more cars went hand in hand, arriving at the lake at the same time.
Several middle-aged people got out of the car, and behind them was a child who looked to be no more than twelve or thirteen years old.
"What the hell." Li Xingzhou's brain was a little down, "Why are all these people here today, even bringing children with them?"
Out of curiosity, Lao Li moved his steps unconsciously and walked towards the crowd.
Among the people who had just gotten off the car, there was a middle-aged man who slowed down.
He retreated to the boy's side, rubbed his head with his hands, and warned him in a serious manner: "You brat, don't let your mother know that I took you out to fish. When you get back, tell me that we are attending an English parent-child summer camp. "
From the conversation, it can be inferred that the relationship between the elder and the younger should be father and son. Li Xingzhou continued to listen with his ears pricked up.
"Dad, just be at ease, let's hurry up and get a seat." The young man looked anxious and trotted towards the lake.
what's the situation?
Li Xingzhou, who was standing aside, was even more confused. He also loves fishing at a young age?
"It's only 11:05 now." The middle-aged man glanced at the watch on his wrist and said, "Little bastard, please run slower, there are still twenty-five minutes until the Flash Carp King refreshes."
Li Xingzhou: "???"
Flash Magikarp.
Isn't this special thing from Pokémon? Could it be that these waves of menacing fishermen actually came to the lake to play games?
Lao Li opened his phone in a daze and clicked on the official website of Pokémon.
Sure enough, in the lower right corner of the homepage, there is an activity to capture Shiny Pokémon.
The Pokémon named Shiny are no different from regular Pokémon in terms of attributes. They just have different colors in appearance, so they are also called "different-colored Pokémon".
From the time the game was released, the campaign to capture the Flash began.
Different types of Shiny Pokémon will be refreshed in different cities, different time periods, and different locations.
If players want to get them, they need to pinch them and run to the designated location to try their luck.
For example, in Jinling City today, the Flashing Carp King will be refreshed at Xuanwu Lake at 11:30 pm, and this is also the reason why a group of fishermen came to the lake!
"Hello?" Li Xingzhou stepped forward quickly and called out to the father who brought his son to catch Shiny Pokémon.
"Huh?" the middle-aged man asked curiously, "Hello, what's the matter?"
"You...are you all fishing enthusiasts?" Lao Li asked.
"yes."
"Then why not go fishing for real fish?"
"It's bad, the fishing rod is too expensive, and I don't have enough personal money, but the feel of this game is quite real, at least it can be addictive."
The middle-aged man replied with some embarrassment: "Besides, if I go fishing for real fish, my little brat won't be willing to come out with me."
"Hurry up! Dad! Dad!"
Li Xingzhou wanted to ask something else, but the child who ran to the lake first shouted loudly.
"Come on!"
The middle-aged man responded loudly, and at the same time smiled at Lao Li and said: "The little bastard called me, let's go."
The fishing enthusiasts left in a hurry, leaving Li Xingzhou alone.
