Qing Shan Qu Zui
Chapter 26 A Gentleman's Friendship is as Light as Water!
“Qian-ge!”
Pei Qian slowly woke up to Ma Yang's calls.
"Hey, I know you've put a lot of effort into this game, and now you're finally seeing the rewards, so you must be very excited, but don't get too excited, it's not good for your health."
"Calm down quickly, we succeeded!"
Ma Yang's excitement was overflowing.
Pei Qian was helpless and rolled his eyes in anger.
Am I happy?
Am I excited?
I'm in despair!!
Pei Qian's face was ashen, and he forced a smile, "Yes, we succeeded..."
He was very puzzled, which part went wrong?
Although it was painful and despairing, and he had to admit his failure, Pei Qian still had to figure out where he had failed!
Why is this game popular again?
It can't be that some video blogger complained about this game again, right?
But there's nothing to complain about in this game, is there?
First, he used Baidu to search for the keyword "Ghost General", but didn't find any useful information.
In the game's comment section, he didn't see any more messages like "xx sightseeing group".
"So where did the problem come from?" Pei Qian couldn't figure it out.
The key is that only a few people know about this game!
Pei Qian himself didn't do any promotion.
Ma Yang is even more impossible, even if he wanted to promote it, he doesn't have the connections.
The only other people are those on the ESRO resource website that Pei Qian contacted when buying resources and templates.
"Wait a minute, the players who left messages seem to have mentioned the original artwork!"
"Obviously, they were attracted by the original artwork!"
"But, this batch of original artwork is in the game, how did they see it?"
Pei Qian opened Weibo with the mentality of trying his luck and searched for "Ghost General."
This time, there were results.
Many well-known artists have forwarded the original artwork of "Ghost General", voluntarily acting as free promoters!
These Weibo posts have been forwarded by many people, including big Vs in the game circle, animation circle, and even the technology circle!
Other ordinary users of Weibo also have high forwarding rates!
Even the topic "Ghost General" was on the Weibo hot search list, although it was only a particularly low, bottom-ranked hot search, but it could still bring a lot of traffic!
Pei Qian was dumbfounded.
Who did it?
Who has such great energy to get so many industry大佬 to forward and promote "Ghost General"?
I'm afraid even ordinary brokerage companies and water armies can't do it!
The key is that many of the artists in this group are well-known figures in various fields, who think highly of themselves. Even if some companies come to them and want them to do a commercial promotion, they may not accept it!
Following the forwards one by one, Pei Qian finally found the original poster, Ruan Guangjian!
This is Ruan Guangjian's personal account, with only two or three hundred fans, but this Weibo post has been forwarded thousands of times, and its popularity remains high!
Although Pei Qian doesn't understand why an account with only two or three hundred fans can cause such a big impact by posting a Weibo post, it is clear that all of this stems from Ruan Guangjian's voluntary promotion!
Pei Qian slapped his forehead: "Damn, this time the problem actually came from our own people!"
But he couldn't figure it out, why would Ruan Guangjian bother to promote his game so much?
It doesn't make sense, does it?
We have a very simple monetary relationship, I give you money, you draw the original artwork, the money and goods have been cleared, why are you still here to shout and help me promote it, isn't this just being full and doing nothing?!
I didn't give you any extra promotional fees!
Pei Qian didn't understand, he really didn't understand.
He decided to ask on the ESRO resource website what was going on.
"Did you promote 'Ghost General' on Weibo???"
A few minutes later, Ruan Guangjian replied.
"Yes, I asked a few artist friends to help forward it, I didn't expect it to have such a good effect."
"President Pei, you don't need to feel too grateful, I just think it's a pity that you made such a conscientious game and it's being buried!"
"A total of 300,000 yuan in research and development funds were all used to develop the game, and no funds were left for promotion... I have to say, game producers as enthusiastic as you are really too rare!"
"My artist friends were also touched by your spirit, so they were willing to help forward it."
"Moreover, 'Ghost General' is too conscientious, and the quality is also good. Of course, my original artwork is also good, so it can have such a good response."
"In the final analysis, a high-quality, sincere game like 'Ghost General' should be popular! I just did a little bit of work."
Looking at these paragraphs sent by Ruan Guangjian, Pei Qian was dumbfounded.
He didn't even know what to reply!
There aren't many producers as enthusiastic as me anymore?
"Ghost General" is too conscientious and should be popular?
Where did all this come from!
I'm not enthusiastic, I just hope the game loses money!
"Ghost General" should be popular?
No! How am I supposed to lose money if it's popular, damn it!
Pei Qian really wanted to scold Ruan Guangjian.
Are you idle, are you!
Why are you meddling so much, isn't it good to eat, drink, and have fun after drawing the original artwork and getting the money? You don't need to worry about the game's promotion!
But Pei Qian couldn't say anything, the hands placed on the keyboard, typed for a long time, but still pressed the delete key.
He couldn't say anything, because he couldn't imply the existence of the system or the challenge, and he couldn't arouse suspicion in others!
According to a normal person's reaction, Pei Qian can only show a very happy look now!
Ruan Guangjian waited for a long time, but there was no reply from Pei Qian.
President Pei must be too moved, so he doesn't know what to say for a while.
Ruan Guangjian typed and said, "President Pei, you don't need to say anything."
"Helping you promote is completely my voluntary act, if you hadn't taken the initiative to ask, I wouldn't have told you about this."
"You don't need to feel embarrassed, after all, if 'Ghost General' becomes popular, my set of original artwork can be seen and known by more people, which will be of great help to my future career planning."
"President Pei, keep up the good work, I believe you will definitely be able to launch more and better game works in the future, I hope we will have the opportunity to continue to cooperate in the future!"
Faced with Ruan Guangjian's enthusiastic paragraphs, Pei Qian fell into a daze.
Hope to have the opportunity to continue to cooperate in the future?
No, there will never be another time in the future!
You are just a大佬 disguised as a newbie, if I cooperate with you, how am I supposed to lose money in the future?
Pei Qian couldn't express his full of grief, and finally could only squeeze out two words.
"Thank you."
Saying thank you on his lips, but gnashing his teeth in his heart.
Seeing the word "Thank you" typed by Pei Qian, Ruan Guangjian showed a gratified smile on his face.
Sure enough, the so-called gentleman's friendship is as light as water, it should be like this.
It's great to be able to cooperate with an excellent person like President Pei!
