The Game Developer Who Left the Company Is Too Competent

67. Overseas launch (4)

“There are too many applicants for the contest? It would be much better to rent the convention center and hold the Elcross Re Festival.”

“Isn’t that too much money? It’s not something I have to do that much… … .”

“You can get a ticket. Elcross Re is very popular right now, so if you set the ticket price a little cheaper, it will sell like hot cakes.”

“… … .”

“We held a costume party, and created a siege, air battle, and AOS mode experience hall that was briefly revealed on the Gold Pineapple live broadcast… … .”

At the words of the business team leader, everyone in the conference room nodded as if in agreement.

Lee Tae-young, general manager of the business, gives strength.

“It would be nice to do that. I think there will be an effect that can definitely nail down the fact that Elcross Re is the mainstream.”

Taeyeon nodded.

“You do that. It would be nice if Director Lee Tae-young supervised the process and shared the progress of the work with me in real time.”

Director Lee Tae-young answered with a more courageous face than ever before.

“I will!”

Beat the gold pineapple.

It was the moment when a small-scale PVP event was expanded into a super-large festival.

[Elcross Re Festival held at Ilsan Convention Center!]

[PVP contest, new content experience, costume festival, goods sale, etc., various attractions and experience events… … .]

The Elcross community burst into cheers.

-Wow, you’re doing a festival? I attended once

– It feels like things have gotten bigger again, but I agree! Absolutely go!

-We decided to do our first guild meeting there. I’m looking forward to it. hahahaha

It’s really rare to open a festival with a game alone. Of course, any small scale is possible, but a scale comparable to that of a game show was impossible unless it was a really popular game.

There are also concerns about this.

-Isn’t it too early?

-Anyway, it’s just the beginning… … .

-It’s fortunate if half of the tickets are sold.

However, such concerns have been unfounded.

[Entrance ticket to Elcross Re Festival. Sold out in 5 minutes of opening!]

The tickets were sold out in 5 minutes!

-Wow, is this a true story?

-A five-minute cut? It’s not some kind of U&I or real bullet boy band concert… … .

People who are perplexed or express doubts.

– It’s amazing. Tens of thousands of tickets to a new game festival in 5 minutes… … is this right? isn’t it a scam

without doubt

Along with tickets, certifications for airplane tickets to Korea poured in from domestic and overseas famous communities.

This means that there are a lot of overseas buyers.

Those who failed to purchase were even more bewildered.

-No, we haven’t officially exported yet… … There are so many overseas users with this level of enthusiasm… … ?

└ It’s because you can sign up and pay through the official website of Nepple overseas.

└ It hasn’t been translated and exported yet.

└ I’m playing the game by installing the Korean client.

└ Personally, I have a wish for overseas users to do something… … When I ask for a party, there are many times when the kids all use strange language, which is embarrassing.

└Japanese and English are better. There are also a lot of kids from the Middle East or South America accessing it. Their language is really unfamiliar… … .

└ They say they are providing overseas services through Mercury Games, but I hope they can proceed quickly.

└ I only want to see Koreans in Korean subs… … .

Contrary to the reaction of domestic and foreign users, Elcross Studio was in an emergency situation.

“Did you hear about creating an experience center for siege warfare, aerial warfare, and AOS mode under development? Let’s start working on that one!”

“Because it seems like we need to work on fixing the reported bug sooner rather than later? Planning and Program Team Hurry up! The QA team at the head office will come to support you from next Monday, so the part leaders, please make a list of how to distribute the work!”

It was an atmosphere reminiscent of right before OBT.

Everyone was on edge. There was no time to even have a tea time.

The planning team leader encourages loudly.

“Everyone knows that tickets sold out in 5 minutes, right? Users who enjoy our games not only in Korea but also all over the world will come to participate in the festival, but we shouldn’t show a lackluster appearance. Let’s think that our pride is at stake and work hard!”

-yes!

An answer overflowing with spirit, reminiscent of an army.

The planning team leader nodded in satisfaction and entered the conference room.

“We have to have a meeting, so please gather all the senior staff. This is a message from PD!”

Dozens of developers gathered in a large conference room.

Taeyeon asked.

“Are you all gathered?”

-yes!

“I am sorry to suddenly have a big event. But I thought it was a good opportunity to promote our game in a bigger way. I thought that our game was second to none of the masterpieces.”

Taeyeon’s calm words start a fire.

“The games you and I have made deserve greater success than they do today. It’s so well made and so much fun.”

The moment when great pride as a developer is once again imprinted!

“Actually, I didn’t mean it too much, but I heard that our end content, especially PVP, is getting a lot of popularity. More than you think.”

Everyone nods.

“Now that this has happened, content is also content, and I thought I should put more effort into developing PvP. Let’s do everything others do, and do what others don’t. so… … .”

After hesitating for a moment, Taeyeon spat out.

“Let’s develop it into an e-sports that will not be ashamed to wear the title of World Championship later on.”

Amazing developers.

My game is E-Sports… … Isn’t it like a dream as a developer?

“Through this competition, problems or good ideas for improvement will be poured out. For those of you in this room right now, stay alert and focus on feedback and reactions. You will be able to see which ones you need to cut down and which ones to grow.”

-yes!

“If the festival ends safely, I will take responsibility as the CEO and give everyone paid vacation and vacation money. As a developer, it would be nice if I could give you even greater pride… … .”

Taeyeon smiled a little.

“That’s up to you guys, right?”

abbreviation DFW

Disney Fantastic World has swept awards at the giant game show in Germany.

Best Action Adventure Game

Best Family Games

Best Role Playing Game

Since it swept important awards at world-class game shows, it was unusually highlighted by the domestic media.

In particular, major media outlets were surprised that such a game was released in the domestic game industry, which was considered a gambling board.

Of course, users… … .

-What a surprise… … .

– This was an expected result. It’s the best game in terms of quality or anything else.

-Something to celebrate, but not surprising or anything like that. I thought that would be the case from the moment I heard the news of the exhibition.

It was calm.

That this was a pre-planned outcome.

This was the same in the overseas game community, which meant that the quality of the game was recognized as much.

In addition, the demonstration hall, which was jointly organized by Neckple and Disney, became an issue as it was crowded with the most people.

In particular, there were a lot of family visitors, and children didn’t even think about leaving the event.

Some of the games were fun, but it was effective that we sold a lot of special limited edition goods, and even had character dolls and voice actors dispatched to the event.

As if reflecting this, Nexple’s stock price rose about 10% from the previous trading day.

– These days, I laugh when I see Nexple’s share price rising even after a gloomy day.

-Neckple what are you doing? CEO Yoo Tae-yeon did not write a lifetime contract… … never send anywhere

-Where have all the people who talked about the rise of Nexle go? Oh, it feels so good!

Nexple shareholders are in a festive mood!

The happiest among them is… … .

“Uh ha ha. look. Are my eyes correct?”

President Jinsung Yoo.

Even though it’s a stock, it’s rather strange that he doesn’t laugh because his wealth has increased enormously as if he were using a cheat key.

It was a smile throughout the meeting, but the executives also felt the same way, so the meeting ended in a very good mood.

Chairman Yoo Jin-seong, who called Taeyeon into the office, hugged her and said.

“I live these days thanks to you. Don’t ever think about where you’re going will work with me forever Understand?”

“… … .”

“I will never send you anywhere. I can’t let you die, so if you’re thinking about going somewhere, give up. hahahahaha!”

“… … .”

‘There are too many annoying things.’

I just want to focus on development… … Anyway, since I was the CEO, I had a lot of things to take care of.

It’s not too heavy.

It’s because there are a lot of people around you who can help you and learn from it.

The problem is that more and more time is spent on things outside of development.

‘I want to hit you right now, but… … .’

From the moment he accepted the position of CEO, it became an irreversible task.

And recently, there was one thing I realized.

‘Everything has merit,’

There is a lot to learn and a lot to deal with.

No matter how much people around you help with work, in the end, the company’s big and small issues are the responsibility and jurisdiction of the CEO.

But there are also good points.

I’m not talking about treatment like a salary.

‘At least I can have absolute power over the development studio.’

Thanks to that, I was able to actively engage in and take the lead in things that were frustrating but not my responsibility and that I had to just watch.

No one can say anything even if you go around here and there.

because you are the CEO

‘I really like that one thing.’

In addition, you can freely set the budget and personnel for the game you want to make.

You can even fix your marketing the way you want!

Taeyeon knew better than anyone how much power this is for game developers.

‘If I think in a good way, I think it’s worth doing.’

Taeyeon, who was sitting in the head office of the head office, took a deep breath.

Electronic approval documents and emails displayed on the monitor.

Looking at the pile of work, it was impossible to start work without sufficient preparation and mental resolution.

‘Ready. Come on, let’s work.’

The time is five thirty in the afternoon.

I had to hurry so I could get to work on time.

Especially today, there was an important reason to do so.

‘I have to finish quickly and go shopping before I can make dinner for Yoona’s guests.’

It was more important than paying tens of billions of dollars worth of marketing and development costs.
