You call this entrepreneurship?

Chapter 86 Say hello to colleagues
Qin Shaoyan smiled and said: "It's winter now, they can't wear summer clothes, and the leaders are still here. The outstanding advantages of the young ladies are not obvious, and their strengths are also covered."

"Besides, the protagonists of major companies today are not these young ladies."

"What is that?" Cao Bo wondered, "Is it a game?"

"It's the stereo!" Qin Shaoyan sighed and covered his ears.

Then, as if a horn was blown in the venue, waves of sound came from all directions.

Cao Bo was frightened by this formation. Looking at the booths of major companies, they all moved out speakers and began to spread around.

In order to attract the attention of the audience, major companies have launched sonic attacks.

What are you doing to eat? The music at the place opposite is louder than ours. Turn it up quickly and get over it.

What, the other party is louder than us, turn it up to the maximum!
The entire venue was surrounded by deafening sounds, and the audience and media who came in were all confused.

Cao Bo felt even more regretful as ten thousand mythical beasts roared past him.

It was such a mistake. It was just that there were no beautiful models. Why did I forget to bring a big speaker?

The audience was crowded, and while enduring the sound attack, they flocked to the interested booths.

The most popular ones are naturally the most famous companies.

Not only did their booth have a large area, but it was also in a good location.

Beautiful young ladies stood in a row, distributed gifts to the audience with a smile, and invited the audience to visit.

Ding Sanshi and Chen Tianqiao even came out in person to interact with the players, bringing great popularity.

On the other hand, the corner where Qin Shaoyan was waiting was a different scene. It couldn't be said to be a sea of ​​people, but it could also be said to be deserted.

Originally, the booth was located in a remote location, and the recruitment was not obvious. A few folding tables were placed there as if setting up a stall.

Compared with other glamorous booths, it seems quite perfunctory.

Cao Bo stood outside the booth, distributing leaflets and promoting the product vigorously.

But Qin Shaoyan's gang seemed very different. A group of strong men sat on chairs, motionless.

Cao Bo took a look and felt a little disdainful.

Why are you acting like a returnee after this? It's been more than half an hour and not even a ghost has come to see you. Don't you have some ideas in your mind?
Qin Shaoyan didn't look anxious at all. He calmly drank the last sip of coffee, then stood up and clapped his hands.

"Teacher Hong, tell the brothers to start working!" Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Let's say hello to our colleagues!"

With an order, the six burly men stood up in unison and neatly took off their thick coats.

These strong men were uniformly wearing tight-fitting shirts and had muscles all over their bodies, like bodybuilding champions. They looked quite spectacular.

The murderous appearance of the big men immediately startled the people around them and made them very confused.

"Hang up the banner!"

Teacher Hong and Zhang Tianshi immediately took out the banners from their bags and pulled hard one on the left and the other on the right.

The huge banner trembled and unfolded, standing tall.

Cao Bo stared at the content on the banner with his mouth open, and he was completely dumbfounded.

What is this?

"Celebrating the sales of 1100 million units of our company's stand-alone games in North America!"

"Refreshing a new sales record for domestic stand-alone games!"

One, ten, hundreds, thousands... ten thousand?

Cao Bo rubbed his eyes and counted carefully five times before he was sure he had read it correctly.

1100 million... There is a limit to your bragging.

And if you are bragging here, you are really not afraid of being laughed at by the crowd.

"Mr. Qin," Cao Bo said dully, "Is your banner... a bit exaggerated?"

"Is it an exaggeration?" Qin Shaoyan raised his eyebrows, "I'm just telling the truth."

As soon as the banner was displayed, the surrounding area seemed to become quiet.

The staff at other booths focused their attention on Qin Shaoyan's simple booth, and then began to whisper.

Several spectators passing by just glanced at it casually, and then stopped in their tracks with shock on their faces. "Hey, look, over there."

"Damn, how dare you brag!"

"Eleven million?! There must be a limit to bullshit?"

"Whose masterpiece is it? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Soon the audience gathered more and more, pointing at Qin Shaoyan's booth, and then began to call friends and invite everyone to come and watch together.

A reporter from Popular Software magazine squeezed through the crowd, took a few photos of the banner, and then walked towards the booth.

The reporter asked tentatively: "Which company do you belong to?"

"Sentinel Technology."

"Sentinel Technology?"

The reporter thought about it for a long time and couldn't remember which company it was. He often dealt with PC games and was familiar with domestic companies of all sizes. He had never heard of this company.

"We were just established in August 03." Qin Shaoyan added with a smile.

"Oh, a new company." The reporter looked up at the banner again and asked cautiously, "What products do you have?"

"Plants vs. Zombies."

"What the hell?!" The reporter was really shocked and looked at Qin Shaoyan in disbelief, "Did you make the game?"

"Yes, it is made by our company. If it is fake, it will be replaced." Qin Shaoyan added, "Domestic game companies only publish it in North America."

The reporter's whole body trembled with excitement, and he realized that a huge piece of news had hit him on the head.

The game "Plants vs. Zombies" was very popular in North America, and pirated copies soon spread to China.

As a magazine that specializes in reporting on PC games, the reporter himself also played it and soon became addicted.

But he never expected that this popular stand-alone game in North America would be made by a domestic manufacturer.

"Hello, I am a reporter from Volkswagen Software. My name is Ding Yang. Can I interview you?" Ding Yang added another question out of professional sensitivity, "Is this sales figure accurate?"

Without saying a word, Qin Shaoyan took out an American gaming magazine from his bag and handed it over.

Ding Yang opened it and saw that it was a special report on "Plants vs. Zombies".

There are two words written on it in bloody font, "eleven million"

The title of the special report is also very exaggerated and reads in English, "Zombies are coming!"

Ding Yang took a deep breath and turned to look at the gathered audience.

Under the curious and doubtful eyes, an inexplicable emotion rose in Ding Yang's heart, and his whole body trembled slightly.

He is a loyal fan of domestic games. He has worked at Popular Software for more than five years and has witnessed the birth to decline of domestic stand-alone games.

In contrast to the booming online game market, the stand-alone game market is increasingly sluggish, and a large number of companies have either gone bankrupt or switched to online games.

Although high-quality products have appeared frequently in recent years, they have not been able to curb the deteriorating trend of the market.

It has become a consensus in the industry that a single machine is no longer viable.

The domestic stand-alone environment is getting worse year by year, and Ding Yang is filled with unwillingness.

Stand-alone games seem to be really dying... No, domestic stand-alone games will not die!

Ding Yang suddenly raised his hands and unfolded the magazine to face the audience. His throat seemed to be blocked. After a few seconds, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength and said loudly: "It's true!"

"Domestic stand-alone game! Sales volume in North America is 11 million!"

"It's our stand-alone game!"

Ding Yang roared loudly, "A new record for domestic stand-alone games!"

The surrounding spectators were stunned at first, and then burst into an uproar.

Those present felt a numb current running straight from the spine to the back of the head.

At that moment, there was only one word in everyone's mind.

"Brilliant!"
