Yan Qi could not help but break out in cold sweat for the Dawn of Games.

Who would do that?

This was nonsense!

According to normal thinking, what was the rush for a new platform?

Since the games on the platform had not completed the bugs, they could postpone it. It would not be too late to go online and promote it after the games were all modified and there were no bugs.

The crux was, what was the point of trying the game out in such a hurry?

They could not earn more money and could not accumulate players. If players could watch but not play, they might even curse.

He really could not figure out what kind of brain circuit could do this.

He went online to search for gamers' comments and found that they were discussing quite a lot. There was criticism but most people treated it as a joke.

"This Dawn Games platform is simply lunatic! Some time ago, they advertised everywhere. I thought it was a large platform. I thought that they would give two games for free and organize some activities for the test run. Then, I downloaded it. I did not expect that not only was there no activity, but the games on the platform could not be played!"

"I was fooled because I saw that this platform could use Tengda's account to log in…"

"Stunned+1, the bugs in the game have not been fixed. What's the point of trying it out? It's so lonely."

"Are you playing us like monkeys? I've looked around and only four games can be played on the entire platform. What's more, they are all old and boring mobile games…"

"This Dawn Games platform is really confusing. If we say that it had no money, it kept advertising and seemed to have sufficient funds. If we say that it had money,why didn't it spend money to cooperate with large factories to release a game to promote itself? This is much more efficient than spending money!"

"I feel like I can be selected as one of the top ten idiots in the gaming circle this year. The trial platform actually doesn't have a game, making players feel lonely. Ordinary gaming platforms really can't do such a thing!"

"I'm dying of laughter. I saw the on this platform before, but I didn't click on it. I originally thought that this was a new baller platform. Now, it looks like it's actually a comedian?"

"That's right. He even wrote the number of bugs in the game and updated it in real-time. Is he going to organize a bug repair competition? Instead of calling it a game platform, it might be better to call it a test platform or a bug recording platform for these games…"

"There's actually such a funny gaming platform in the world? I don't believe it. It can't be a joke, right?"

"It's true. Go and search for Dawn Games platform. The data on the official website and the platform's application are interconnected. You'll be able to see it once you enter."

Those who expressed their anger were most likely gamers who had been successfully directed by the .

There were many small channels now, and most players had platforms that they preferred. However, there were also some players who wandered between the platforms and saw which platforms had more discounts and which platforms gave the game more ruthlessly. Thus, they wandered over and benefited.

Many guilds that specialized in mobile games would also organize people to explore new platforms. After all, there were many new players on new platforms. Even if it was an old game, it would be easier to meet new players when new platforms opened servers. The game experience would be better.

Therefore, Meng Chang had previously spent a lot of publicity funds to advertise. The conversion rate was very low but it was still converted to a group of people.

These people were either looking forward to the new platform's trial operation where they could fleece the sheep or wanted to change the environment. In short, they were all waiting for the platform to officially open.

In the end, when the platform opened, this was it?

His hopes were dashed. He felt like he had been scammed. Naturally, he was furious.

However, most people did not have high expectations for Dawn gaming platform in the first place. Thus, they did not feel angry. Instead, they treated this matter as a joke.

There was a test run on a gaming platform, but there was no game on it. No matter how he heard it, it sounded like a lame joke segment from April Fool's Day.

Many people even went to the official website to search and found that it was not a joke, it was true!

As the news spread, Dawn Games' reputation really increased!

However, this increase in popularity did not affect the platform's players much.

What's more, a gamer was right. Wouldn't it be better to find a large factory to monopolize or release with so much publicity funds?

After all, the most precious resource on the gaming platform was the game's content.

New games from outstanding manufacturers often attracted a lot of attention. They naturally had a large number of players. Even if they could not sign a platform to monopolize them, they could at least sign a limited-period monopoly. For example, they could only go to Dawn games platform within a week and only go to other platforms after a week.

That way, most gamers who were trying out the game on Dawn Games platform would be able to stay. Wouldn't the conversion rate be much better than advertising mindlessly?

If he could discuss with Tengda and monopolize the new game… Forget it, it was unlikely for Tengda to do so. After all, the gap in their status was too big. However, there was still hope if he could talk to a company like Sun Strike Studios in the country as long as he offered a higher price.

However, it seemed like the people on Dawn Games platform had not considered this at all. They contacted game companies normally and did not reject games. They would be able to get on as long as they edited the bugs. They did not even have special preferential plans for relatively outstanding games.

All in all, the more he understood about the games platform, the more Yan Qi felt that there was something strange about it.

Compared to other platforms, it was simply incompatible. It was not the same style at all!

Could it be that mentally-ill people had wide thinking and mentally-ill children were happy?

It was hard to understand.

Yan Qi could not help but worry about the Blade of the Empire. Would players come to play their own game on such a platform? Would they be able to make money?

However, no matter how worried he was, he did not have a good solution. He could only hope that Dawn Games would be good.

August 20th, Monday…

Meng Chang came to the games platform once again to see the current situation. Then, he went back to continue his next step of the publicity plan.

This time, Meng Chang realized that there were not as many people in the office as before. It had become orderly.

"Hm?"

"Could it be that everyone realized that the metaphysics had failed and stopped snatching work desks?"

"Please don't do that. The publicity plan that I thought of this weekend was based on the establishment of metaphysics. If the metaphysics fails, what will happen to my plan?"

Meng Chang quickly walked to the conference room and asked Li Yada.

Li Yada shook her head. "No, the exact opposite. Not only did they not question metaphysics, but they also believed it more firmly."

"The reason why you seem to see fewer people is because… these companies have reached an agreement."

Meng Chang was a little confused. "An agreement? What agreement?"

Li Yada explained, "The companies that came later realized that the key locations of the treasure land had been occupied. They wanted to rent a workstation or two at a high price from the companies in front. After all, if they wanted to find bugs, they only needed two testers to test it here and then submit it to the development team to be modified."

"However, there are many new companies. It would definitely be very messy if all of them were to increase the price to rent the work desks. What's more, it would be filled with vicious competition. Therefore, Yan Qi suggested that companies that have more seats but do not need so many work desks can only keep a small number of work desks and empty the rest."

"After that, every other company would be able to obtain two work desks. The prices would be clearly marked, and they would be slightly higher than the original rent. What's more, these work desks would be prioritized for companies with higher completion rates, who would be released soon, and who would be more eager to fix bugs."

"It can be said that these work desks have been redistributed. The companies that came first can earn some difference in price by transferring their work desks. The companies that came later can also enjoy the benefits of a treasure land. In short… with this rule, there is no need to snatch the work desks. Of course, it looks more orderly."

Meng Chang:"…"

At that moment, he did not know what to say.

Good lord, there were only so many work desks. These people had played so well!

However, on further thought, they could play whatever they wanted. It would be good as long as their publicity plan was not affected.

"Alright, let's get back to business."

"Over the past two days over the weekend, I've also paid attention to the situation on Dawn Games platform. Apart from the fact that the scolding was not harsh enough, the overall situation is in line with my previous expectations."

"Next, I will continue to invest in publicity funds to make this discussion more intense. It would be even better if we can create a bigger controversy."

"By the way, when will the bugs in these games be completed?"

Li Yada said, "The first batch of game companies that we worked with, led by 'Blade of the Empire', has been fixing bugs for more than a week. If the situation is optimistic, they should be able to be released this Thursday or Friday."

Meng Chang nodded slightly. "Yes, I understand."

"Let's continue according to the original plan. You guys just have to focus on working on the gaming platform. I'll be in charge of the publicity plan. Before the publicity plan is completed, try your best not to say anything to the outside world. Don't clarify even if many people suddenly curse. You just have to wait patiently."

"My publicity plan has basically been completed. I'm only lacking one key segment. However, I have to think about how to enter this key segment."

"Only by finding a perfect entry point can the publicity effect be explosive!"

At the same time, at Shenhua View…

Pei Qian came to the office to check on the various departments, as usual, every Monday.

"Hmm… GOG and IOI's situation seems to be getting worse…"

Pei Qian had a bad feeling when he saw the report from Tengda Games.

During this period, Pei Qian deliberately instructed Min Jingchao not to organize large-scale activities for GOG for the time being and to take a break.

On one hand, it was still early in the settlement cycle and there was no need to spend money now. On the other hand, it was also to allow IOI to recuperate.

Even though everything looked peaceful at the moment, Pei Qian could sense a sense of danger from the recent changes in GOG data submitted by Min Jingchao.

That was because the number of new players in GOG, the number of active players, the length of online time, and so on seemed to be increasing faster than before!

Pei Qian might not be able to see IOI's data but he guessed that IOI was in danger from GOG's data changes.

After all, these figures would not increase for no reason. They did not do any activities but still increased rapidly. This meant that other than natural growth, some players came from other games.

Where did these players come from then?

That was an obvious problem. At the moment, there were no other MOBA games that were larger in size…

The question was, what should he do now?

What could he do to help them?
