My Animation Era

The IP is very big, and the competition is so exciting!

Although it sounds incredible, it seems that this is basically the case in card battle games. Aren’t there not many people watching the famous Three Kingdoms game?

What?

You said that the Three Kingdoms itself is very popular and niche, so it is normal for no one to watch the game?

Let’s give another easy-to-understand example, Landlords and Mahjong. I believe everyone knows it, right? These two chess and card games can no longer be said to be popular in China, but are blooming everywhere!

But even for such well-known and popular chess and card games, professional competitions or relatively professional competitions, there are still not many people watching, and many people even don’t know that there are professional competitions.

For this reason.

It is understandable that the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" competition cannot be held and cannot attract ordinary audiences.

The reason why these competitions lack popularity and exposure is certainly due to insufficient publicity by the organizers, but publicity cannot be entirely blamed.

Players of chess and card battle games are not interested in professional competitions. This is the most important problem and the core reason why no one watches the competition.

To solve this problem, blindly spending money on publicity to attract traffic to the game will not work. Even if it gains high exposure for a while, if the audience cannot retain it, it will be nothing.

How can we retain people?

Gu Miao came up with the idea of ​​using AR technology to play cards to make the game process more dazzling.

But this is obviously treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.

Some technical gimmicks may make players interested in the game, but once the interest wears off, they will still find it boring.

Increase bonuses?

It may have some effect, but again, a gimmick like this may be effective if used once, but it is unrealistic to expect to eradicate the problem.

"Then lower the entry threshold and allow more players to have the opportunity to participate!"

After learning about the master's confusion and troubles, Guo Hongwei, who came to report on the work, couldn't help but said: "The more players participate, the more attention the game will receive. Even if you are eliminated in the finals, you can at least gain a sense of participation. Concerned about the subsequent game situation.”

"you're right……"

Gu Miao nodded in agreement and said: "It is indeed time to lower the entry threshold and allow more players to participate."

Most of the previous "Yu-Gi-Oh!: Duel Frontline" competitions used a fixed ladder rank as the entry threshold, and the rank was set very high, with "Master" usually starting.

In the entire game environment, the total number of players in the floating ranks of "Master" and above, "Legend" and "Duel King" is only over 10,000.

This also means...

Most of the players who signed up to participate in the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" competition and the viewers who followed the competition were this group of people.

As for those players whose ranks are in Bronze and Silver, knowing that they will never be able to reach Master in this life, will they have nothing to do and pay attention to a competition that only Masters can sign up for?

Lower the entry threshold.

Not only players who are masters and above, but also gold and silver players, we need to give them a certain sense of participation.

Although most of these players who signed up due to the lowered threshold will be eliminated in the finals and qualifiers, as long as they sign up, they will definitely pay attention to the subsequent schedule events.

In this way, Gu Miao's original intention of gaining higher exposure and attention for the "Yu-Gi-Oh!" competition has been achieved.

If coupled with the gimmick of huge bonuses, the competition will definitely be a success!

certainly!

Although it is said that the entry threshold should be lowered to allow more poker players to participate, not everyone can sign up, otherwise the influx of tens of millions of contestants at once, even for online competitions, will be a huge burden on the server.

"Well, let's start with gold."

"I'm afraid the bronze and silver players don't even understand how to match the deck. Asking them to register for the competition will only increase our workload." Gu Miao explained with a smile.

"Gold is fine. The threshold is neither high nor low. It's quite suitable."

Guo Hongwei himself is gold. He understands the gold content of the gold rank better than anyone else. The so-called rank with the largest player base, are you making trouble?

Don’t come here for silver and bronze!

Even "Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Frontline" can't reach gold. Either he has no time to play, or he is a cancer player. If you ask such a person to sign up for the competition, isn't it just lowering the level of the competition?

Gold also has the possibility of a dark horse counterattack, and the bad luck can overthrow the master. After all, the deck basically has no problems, and with good luck, there is still hope.

But bronze and silver...

It’s not that Guo Hongwei looks down on players at these two levels. He can only say that people at these two levels will not stay in this level as long as they can form a Yangjian deck.

"It's almost as good as gold, so don't show off your sense of superiority."

Gu Miao rolled her eyes and said, "You gold-level Yu-Gi-Oh players are also rampant with demons and monsters. It's not like I haven't seen them before."

He is platinum anyway!

In "Yu-Gi-Oh!: Duel Frontline", which has a strict hierarchy and one level above everyone else, there is nothing wrong with him making such a sharp comment on the golden brother.

"Okay, let's not talk about this."

The reform of the competition system cannot be completed in a day or two. More than this, Gu Miao wants to know how the Pleasant Goat Year of the Rooster movie is doing?

Guo Hongwei signed the military order.

If the box office of this big movie in the Year of the Rooster does not reach the expected target and the reputation is not as good as the previous movie in the Year of the Monkey, then he will have his bonus deducted for two years.

For Wanbao employees at his level, the basic salary is incidental, and the annual bonuses and dividends are the bulk.

Having his bonus deducted for two years and only getting his basic salary was a serious punishment for him.

But since he dares to make such a guarantee, it proves that he has full confidence in the big movie in the Year of the Rooster. If you don’t have any confidence and confidence, who would dare to bet on your bonus for the next two years?

And the facts prove it.

Xiao Guo's self-confidence and confidence are indeed something. This movie for the Year of the Rooster is more than twice as good as the movie for the Year of the Monkey just based on its appearance.

Gu Miao was watching the movie trailer.

Smooth editing, captivating suspense of the plot, gorgeous display of super powers, a brand new experience in the weird world, the limited return of the dashing brother and the black handsome man...

The content shown in the trailer can definitely arouse the curiosity and expectation of the audience. To even exaggerate, this is the most standard and perfect animated movie trailer template.

"Not bad!"

Gu Miao clapped gently, feeling very pleased with the brilliance of this trailer.

This trailer is awesome!

He didn't believe that those viewers who had watched "Odd World War" could resist going to the cinema to watch the Year of the Rooster movie after seeing this trailer.

That doesn't exist...

This trailer must be sentimental and innovative, and the audience's expectations will be aroused. Is there any possibility of not buying a ticket?
