"Are these people losing their minds?"
Penguin Games.
These days, Tony Smith feels surrounded by Genshin Impact and Snowflake Games, hearing about them every day.
He just came to the company today and heard the news that Genshin Impact was trending again on social media, praised by a group of players.
The reason was that the company released a demonstration video.
Think about it, in order to make their own games popular, they spent a lot of effort, hired many influencers, and even paid for trending topics.
The results were unsatisfactory.
But when it came to Genshin Impact, they didn't even release a new character, just a video.
Just a video!!
And people are so excited, why?!
Tony didn't understand: "Are there really so many people willing to spend money on their characters?"
He glanced at the images related to the trending topic.
"Is it because of the anime style?"
"Nowadays, young people prefer anime? Like those unreal anime characters? Anime images?!"
He felt that the probability was very high and immediately called in the people from the R&D department.
He gave them instructions to make their new games in an anime style, find the best artists, and create the most beautiful images.
If they didn't know the direction, they should follow the character designs of Genshin Impact.
But...
From beginning to end, he just glanced at the pictures posted by the players, didn't click on the video, and didn't play Genshin Impact for a minute.
He didn't even analyze the reasons for Genshin Impact's success mentioned by Jack before.
Just because, subconsciously, he always had contempt for the competition.
An inconspicuous studio, why should I learn from them? They should learn from us!
Buying them would be giving them face!

At the same time.
"The boss is a genius!"
"He designed the Genshin Impact game, he composed the music, and even these character designs were made according to his vision!"
"How did he come up with this?"
At this time, Jack boarded the plane to Japan, and his mobile phone was in flight mode, with videos and information about Klee saved before boarding.
He is now a member of Snowflake Games, serving as the overseas marketing director.
Now he's trying to open up the Japanese game market.
Officially part of the Genshin Impact team, he learned that the designer of the game is John Doe.
All game details are made by him as the main planner.
From the core gameplay of the game to the detailed design of each character.
Snowflake's staff just reproduced the game according to his ideas. John Doe is the soul of this game.
Understanding this clearly.
Jack's admiration for John reached an indescribable level, and he was completely convinced by him.
"Klee..."
"Based on the popularity online, when the character is released, the game's success will definitely break records for all mobile games, even online games can't compare!"
Jack murmured: "The success of this character is not only because the boss created her so well and captured the hearts of the players, but also because the Genshin Impact game itself is so well done that players are willing to pay for it."
Make players willing to pay?
In the past, this was absolutely impossible at Penguin, and it was considered good to trick players out of their money.
Willingly? What are you talking about, a dream?
"It was really a wise choice to switch jobs at the beginning!"
"While Snowflake is only a small studio, hurry up and make achievements, and become a senior member. This development space and potential are much bigger than staying at Penguin!"
Thinking of this, he thought of the Japanese market, and this time he must execute the plan cleanly and beautifully so that the boss recognizes his strength.
The way to open up the Japanese market...
Jack looked at the demo video of Klee on his phone.
"These young people should be very interested in Klee. In the anime style, even domestic players are so enthusiastic; they will definitely be the same."
In the past, it was Japanese games making money from us.
This time, we're going to use Klee to drain their wallets too!!
