67. Overseas launch (3)

Gold Pineapple was very active.

“I think the way I’m playing against the last victor is a little unfair. Don’t do that, just do it in a way that I mix and play together from the beginning.”

“Are you okay?”

“That’s right. And I am confident.”

He smiles and speaks into the broadcast camera.

“At least when it comes to Elcross Re PVP content, I haven’t met anyone who is better than me yet.”

After completing the CF filming, Golden File Apple returned to the United States.

The live streaming from Nexple’s headquarters has become quite a hot topic among gamers around the world. Thanks to that, the reaction to the streaming edit uploaded to his Mutube account was also hot.

In fact, this alone was already worth the CF.

Numerous users provided an opportunity to encounter Elcross Re.

After the actual broadcast, the number of users exploded.

-We will accelerate the North American launch.

We also received the following confirmation from Mercury Games.

Gold Pineapple’s CF was soon released through broadcasting and the Internet.

That too through North America and Korea and other countries!

This was possible thanks to the joint promotion of CF production with Mercury Games in the first place.

Moreover, it was the influence of Mercury Games that the ‘Beat the Gold Pineapple’ PVP event expanded internationally and increased in scale.

– Now that this has happened, how about expanding the scale of the event? The preliminaries will be held online, and the final stage will be held in Korea.

Actually, I had a lot of trouble.

It’s a game that has just started, and it seems that everything is still cluttered… … .

However, unlike Taeyeon’s cautious reaction, there was a strong atmosphere of approval internally at Neckple.

“Let’s host it as a world championship.”

“Finally, a world-class game like this is coming out of our own development!”

Taeyeon and the executives at Nexle had very different perspectives.

Taeyeon is a developer, executives are managers.

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong advised as follows.

“It’s nothing to be afraid of and shrink back. I understand that you are cautious. But now, as a representative, I think it’s time to look a little farther and wider.

As a result, he also wanted to increase the size of the Elcross PVP tournament.

‘A game that hasn’t even started overseas service yet… … .’

Already expanding to the size of international competitions?

Taeyeon asked about the intention of the gold pineapple, which is no different from the idea provider.

– From my point of view, the response from North America and Europe is good. It seems that there are already many people who enjoy the game in one way or another… … Is there any need to limit the range of participants?

His comments were simple.

– Everyone who wants to participate and enjoy it. Well, if it’s at the level of Nexle, don’t you have enough capacity to handle it no matter how many participants there are? Seeing you in Monster Eater, you did well.

It’s so early, but the first international tournament in Elcross PVP has been decided.

* * *

-I heard the Elcross team got a bonus again?

-I heard that there will be an international scale competition with Gold Pineapple. I heard that there are already great inquiries from participants?

– You haven’t received any incentives yet? I heard that next year’s salary negotiations will go up a lot… … .

Recently, the biggest issue in the Korean game industry has been the hit of Elcross Re.

A game that had already been opened and was ruined miserably.

The dark history of 50 billion has risen to the light of MMORPG around the world in just one year.

-i envy you. Next year, incentives and a large salary increase… … .

-Wow, that team really didn’t do much… … I met the leader well, and my life became a jackpot in an instant.

– Is there any place to rub in right now?

The current Elcross developers were truly the object of envy.

On the other hand, employees who left midway were in the exact opposite situation.

– I really feel sorry for the developers who ran in the middle. It’s not that I don’t understand, but it was the worst decision at this point.

-The person who left at the time the remake was decided is the most pitiful. If I had persisted, good things would have happened… … .

-How do you feel when you see the games you abandoned are on the rise?

These days, PD Song Jae-hee was dying every day.

I was receiving dozens of messages of resentment from people I worked with in the past every day.

[What is this because of PD? Do you know how ridiculed I am these days? What will I do with my life?]

[How are you these days? Rumor has it that Netfunz is preparing for the next film… … Even if you fail, it’s nice to have a good network and academic income. We are dying just for the reason that we participated in your project… … .]

I have no idea who sent it.

Because it was sent anonymously.

If it was terrible, would you change your phone number and share it with only a few people around you?

‘Why are you blaming me? In the end, it was their decision… … .’

It was sad that the original version was ruined.

However, he did his best until the end.

What do you mean the result came out like that?

[I thought you wouldn’t know if I changed my number, right?]

[I tried to finish it in moderation, but there is no sign of reflection.

They are very tenacious people.

‘Probably got the updated phone number on the Netfunz intranet… … .’

guess was correct.

Anonymous messages didn’t bother me anymore until I updated my new cell phone number anywhere, including Netfunz.

‘As time goes on, I’ll get tired of myself and fade away on my own.’

Well, this is not a big deal.

It wasn’t even enough to shake his mentality.

The really big problem was brought by Jeon Joon-young, the business team leader who pushed him and pulled him to Netfunz.

-Let’s have a drink tonight.

I wasn’t the kind of friend who would make an appointment like this.

At least I asked when the time was available from the schedule, and I wasn’t the type to start drinking.

‘How hard is it… … .’

I met Jun-young Jeon at a quiet bar in Gangnam.

Hesitantly, he brings up a strange story.

“The conditions have changed a bit.”

Originally, we decided to make a new game by receiving investment on the condition that we create and launch a smartphone game with the IP suggested by Netfunz.

‘no way… … Isn’t it?’

I try to suppress the bad thoughts that pop up and listen carefully.

Jeon Jun-young, head of the business team, emptied the cocktail at once and continued talking.

“Right now, things are not going well for us. Kim Jun-hwan, who became the company representative two years ago… … know?”

“… … know. You are our senior.”

A graduate of KAIST, he was the team leader of Shinhwa Online Server at Nerosoft. He moved to Netfunz and launched a mobile game based on Shinhwa Online, which hit the jackpot. He was recognized for his achievements and went on a winning streak, eventually rising to the position of CEO.

“Actually, that person was messing with the company in real time.”

It is said that people changed right after the game hit the jackpot and even life.

It is said that he beat not only those who suffered together, but also the strong points.

“And out of the blue, he brought in a woman from the outside and put him in a high-ranking position, and now he’s completely playing into her hands.”

Looking at PD Song Jae-hee with a bitter face, he gets to the point.

“But I guess you’re a bit annoying in her eyes. I said this at a meeting not too long ago. In the first place, Shinhwa Online was the main character, but he was not the director, and he asked where did he decide to invest in a person who failed a lot in the 50 billion project… … .”

“… … !”

PD Song Jae-hee hardens.

“That one word completely changed the atmosphere. In the end, he called me yesterday and told me. Investing, I will do something that never happened.”

“… … .”

“If you come in as a director and make a game without investment conditions, he will think about it.”

It just meant that they should not think about anything else and just make the game they want and receive their salary.

“that… … .”

My throat was choked and I couldn’t speak.

Cocktails you can’t even drink… … After drinking alcohol, he tried to open his mouth.

“Until last month, senior Junhwan sent me a text saying let’s work hard, but that… … .”

“That was then.”

“… … .”

“I told you. Junhwan sunbaenim, why is he caught up in a strange woman’s skirt and he can’t come to his senses… … No, right after he became the CEO, Mattangi went.”

“What is that… … ?”

“I was lucky enough to hit the jackpot in the first place, and in fact, I am a person who does not have the ability to direct, manage, or lead a group. However, he is not a person who can read the situation well or understand people’s minds like a wise man. You know that well, right?”

I can’t deny it.

Actually he is that kind of person.

Still, I thought that people’s temperament had changed as they went on a winning streak. It actually seemed more forgiving.

He believed in the saying that a seat makes a person.

‘But that wasn’t it?’

Seeing that expression, Jeon Jun-young nervously took a shot of the new cocktail and asked.

“You must have seen Representative Yoo Tae-yeon. CEO Junhwan makes games better than him?”

No need to think.

“It is not.”

“Are you better at managing the team than CEO Taeyeon Yoo?”

Shake your head.

“Do you have a strong reputation? Do you have full trust in your company? Do you have good management skills?”

Representative Yoo Tae-yeon is overwhelmingly superior to all of them.

“That’s it.”

“… … .”

“There is a story that Chairman Jeong Seok-hwan is thinking about how to cut it… … Aside from that, my trust in you… … As of now, it is zero.”

“… … .”

“In fact, apart from the incompetence of the current representative, it seems that what the woman said touched everyone’s heartstrings. Although you are one of the protagonists of Shinhwa Online, you were not at the level of a director, and the next masterpiece that received 50 billion won was a complete failure… … realistically. You didn’t show me anything.”

In the tone that gradually goes towards criticism, Song Jae-hee’s eyes become bitter.

“you… … .”

“mad? just this much? Hey, what do you think I feel about pushing you and then constantly being shunned in public?”

I was speechless for a moment.

“My position right now is also dangerous. Still a friend… … I really did my best until the end. I even begged you to give me just one more chance. It’s not your situation to be angry with me. You should be grateful.”

That’s right.

In an instant, my heart felt cold and my hot head cooled.

“What then?”

“I don’t know.”

cold answer.

He too had a tired face.

In the meantime, he hadn’t expressed himself, but it seems that he suffered severe hardships at the company related to himself.

‘Now you know that… … .’

I felt guilty, but apart from that, my heart was in a hurry.

Doesn’t it mean that the salvation line you believed in has been cut off?

“I think… … .”

hesitate and say

“Don’t come to Netfun. The situation is not right now. In my opinion… … Going back to Nexle is the best move.”

“Necklo?”

“You’re trying to win right now. It might be embarrassing to go back, but… … It’s a place with infinite potential for future growth, so try to squeeze through the cracks and rub it in. An opportunity might come.”

“… … .”

“If that is difficult, go back to Nero Soft. It’s like your hometown. Unlike Nepple, it didn’t come out badly.”

“yes.”

“Since your personal connections and achievements remain intact, won’t you give me another chance? If you do anything… … .”

Shake off the remaining cocktail and stand up.

“Anyway, I made it clear. Again, think that you are done with our company and plan your way to live. Delivery finished! I’m going.”

Left alone, Song Jae-hee opened her mouth with a hard face.

“I am finished.”
