67. Overseas launch (1)

“Hoho, so I… … .”

“Ah, that’s how… … !”

late evening.

Taeyeon and Yoona’s house was lively.

It was thanks to the visit of Hong Min-seok and Lee Young-ae.

Lee Yeong-ae, who learned a lot, was very knowledgeable, had a very elegant personality, and had a very good tolerance, and became a good conversation partner for Kim Yoon-a. I could see it was getting closer and closer.

Under the supervision of these two people, Min-seok Hong was giving painting lessons.

Seeing how depressed her expression was, Taeyeon whispered more quietly than she noticed.

“The tutoring fee… … I will quietly pay you in cash.”

“… … !”

“You say your monthly allowance is 500,000 won? It’s an amount that can be robbed even if the team members give me a cup of coffee… … Didn’t you tell me earlier?”

“How to face a man… … .”

Hong Min-seok’s face turned bitter.

Then he quickly glances up and whispers.

“Hey, then how would PD-nim… … Who is the economic power… … ?”

“I have it.”

“Oh oh… … !”

“Yoona trusts me completely and entrusts everything to me.”

“God, you are amazing!”

Do you own the economy?!

Hong Min-seok’s gaze toward Tae-yeon began to twinkle to the point where it was burdensome.

“Anyway, I’ll take care of it, so give it some strength. It’s sad to see that it’s still drooping.”

At those words, Hong Min-seok regained his energy.

“Now, where did you go? Shall we cheer up and make some progress?”

The results of the first tutoring were quite… … No, it was very good.

‘It feels like my skills are growing steadily.’

Art director’s 1:1 tutoring, which was recognized in the world, was on a different level from self-study.

I saw Taeyeon’s current level of ability accurately and figured out what and how to quickly improve her skills.

His teaching skills are also very good, and I only received tutoring for an hour, but I felt the improvement in my whole body.

‘I must do my best too.’

Taeyeon’s tutoring started immediately after the painting tutoring.

“I’ll teach you while practicing.”

I was thinking of letting you know the process of making a game while actually making it.

Two students sitting next to each other.

“I will try too. Teach me!”

No, the three students, including Kim Yoon-ah, sparkle with anticipation.

“It’s not that hard to make a game. It’s easier than studying at school, so if you keep your mind straight, you can understand and follow it right away.”

It was Taeyeon who has trained countless game developers so far.

Many of them are recognized by the industry. Choi Jong-hak, a student, even set a new record of 600 billion won in sales beyond his own capabilities.

“From now on, we will start developing the first mobile game, Raising Elementalists.”

Somehow it ended up being a family project, but Taeyeon thought it was better.

‘It would be good for me if the excellent art directors Hong Min-seok and Lee Young-ae opened their eyes to game development.’

In the future, they can be used as directors or producers who oversee game development.

and another one.

‘It’s good that Yoona is interested in game development.’

There is no expectation that she will be able to become a game developer.

‘This will give me a new perspective on ‘content planning’.’

Until now, she has been presenting performances like gala shows, relying on her experience and sense. Of course, choreographers and performance planning experts were attached, but she was the subject.

The quality of all content depends on the capabilities of the leader.

If her planning skills increase, she will surely be able to create even better and more creative performances.

‘Yoona must have participated in the development study with that mindset.’

After the exchange tutoring, we held a light barbecue party.

There was a small garden on the terrace, and the Han River was right in front of it. Crucially, it was the penthouse on the top floor, so no one would be harmed by grilling meat.

“The house is really nice. How nice it would be to live in a house like this.”

“Iknow, right.”

The two couples were very envious of this environment.

Unlike Yoona, who was at a loss as to what to say at a time like this, Taeyeon spoke calmly.

“The two of you will be able to live in a house like this.”

“… … ?”

The pouring dubious gaze.

Taeyeon continued to speak calmly while grilling the meat.

“In next year’s salary negotiations, the salaries of the two of you will be greatly increased. And AD-nim Lee Young-ae will receive a considerable amount of incentives as the main character and art director of Project D.”

“Now, wait a minute. The money I received last time… … ?”

“That’s not a game incentive, but a separate reward from the president.”

“ah… … !”

“It’s not fair to pay everyone the same money. The contribution is obviously different. AD Lee Young-ae was actually the core developer of the project, so he paid the amount considering that.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

“Of course, incentives alone may not be fulfilling. But when I think of the things I will do in the future and the rewards when they are successful… … .”

Taeyeon looked around and said.

“You’ll get enough money to live in a house like this.”

“… … .”

He grills the meat again and casually says something very big.

“Did I tell you? let’s get rich together The two of you will be able to do that in no time, so just trust me and follow me like you do now.”

-VR RPG. Disney Fantastic World! Achieved 7 million copies!

– Atlantia Biography. Achieved 10 billion monthly sales! Get back to prime!

The good news continued to come in. Among them, the most noteworthy issues were as follows.

– Monthly sales of Elcross 70 billion!

-Explosive rise in subscription and concurrent rate!

-I haven’t even officially exported it… … ? What is the secret to foreign inflow?

– Elcross Re. Establish the pride of domestic games!

The success of Elcross Re!

Domestic users show the following reactions to the pouring articles.

– The game is well made and the operation is very compliant.

-Honestly, a game designed to be understandable even if you don’t know Korean.

-It was an MMORPG drought all over the world. Since a game like this came out after a long time, it’s only natural that the enthusiasts are crazy about it.

Overseas game communities are pouring out requests to export the game as soon as possible.

– You don’t have to know Korean, but… … Still, I want to understand it properly and enjoy it comfortably.

– Anywhere is fine, so hurry up and sign a publishing contract and launch it in Korea. ㅠㅠ

This atmosphere was being shared in real time with the local community.

It was so-called gukppong content.

The most popular person in this regard was American game streamer Gold Pineapple.

Hundreds of thousands of users around the world flocked to his live broadcast, and this popularity has contributed greatly to overseas inflow.

Accordingly, Nexple sent a game advertisement proposal.

-I’ll give you money, so why don’t you shoot a proper CF?

Originally, Gold Pineapple was not one to accept advertisements like this. His interests were all about playing fun games, broadcasting them, and interacting with his fans.

But he was worried for the first time.

And I set a condition.

-If Producer Yoo Tae-yeon, who made this game, appears on my broadcast, I will accept a commercial shoot.

Until now, he had rejected all advertising offers from other companies. Lee Tae-young, the business manager who knew about this, persuaded Tae-yeon.

“For North American gamers, Gold Pineapple is like a superstar. If you can use him as an advertising model, it will be of great help to the launch. Let’s accept! You’re pretty good at broadcasting too!”

These are suggestions that can help each other.

Taeyeon was also well aware of his existence from before.

There was even a time when I subscribed and sponsored. If you are a pure gamer, you cannot know… … It was because he was a celebrity in the game industry all over the world.

“I do. I will also accept the terms.”

The commercials and joint broadcasting issues that were concluded became a big issue in the game community.

Upon hearing the news, Gold Pineapple was very happy.

-I will go to Korea!

* * *

The visit to Korea by the game junkie Gold Pineapple was a big issue among gamers around the world.

A few days before departure.

He said the following in a live broadcast.

“Sooner or later, I will go to Nepple’s headquarters in Korea and meet director Yoo Tae-yeon. If you have any questions about him, let me know now.”

All kinds of stuff pours out.

Unexpectedly, the content that had the most weight was not about Elcross Re.

-I wonder about the DFW sequel release plan.

“What is DFW?”

He was the one who came across the existence of Taeyeon Yoo through Elcross Re. But it’s not this game you’ve fallen in love with, but a completely absurd game… … .

Out of curiosity, I search for gameplay videos on Mutube.

burst out in exclamation

“Oh, was this the game he made?”

It was a box office hit that sold millions of copies, so it was absurd that he, as a gamer, didn’t know.

It just wasn’t of interest.

He tried all kinds of games, but the genre he pursued the most was MMORPG.

“You mean this is the previous work of the creator of Elcross Re? Even sold 7 million copies… … I should try it too.”

Download the game immediately from Steam and play it.

“Oh, oh oh! Is this okay?”

-You can see the new world in VR mode.

-Raise the volume and do it. There is even a musical part!

“okay? Wait a minute, then I’ll change the mode… … .”

It was the moment when Gold Pineapple, a streamer specializing in MMORPG, fell in love with DFW.

Early moning. Employees of the Nexple business team moved to Incheon International Airport.

It is to greet Gold Pineapple, a popular streamer who is visiting Korea to shoot a commercial.

“When you see it on the air, it sounds like a very noisy character, but what about your real personality?”

“There are rumors that my real personality is the complete opposite. They say it’s completely different from broadcasting.”

how much time has passed

The departure hall opens and people rush out.

At the center of it was a tall, handsome white man.

Unlike the noisy broadcast, the blonde hair was neatly and calmly arranged, and she wore a white T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers that fit perfectly.

At first glance, he is so forceful that you might think he is not a streamer, but a famous model or celebrity.

The faces of the staff brightened.

“Ah, there they are.”

“Go ahead and meet me… … .”

Then a scream rang out from the other side.

“Wow!”

“It’s a golden pineapple!”

“I am your fan!”

“… … !?”

A group of people were taking out welcome placards and waving them frantically. The employees of the Nexple business team were taken aback by the unexpected sight.

‘No, I’m not even a celebrity… … ?’

‘There were so many fans who came out to meet me… … ?’
