The matches on both sides will be played one by one according to the normal schedule.
However, the more Pei Qian looked at it, the more he felt something was wrong.
The popularity gap between the two sides is becoming more and more obvious!
In the beginning, there were still a lot of viewers on ioi, but as we progressed, the number of viewers became smaller and less popular, and gradually they all went to GOG!
Even Pei Qian himself couldn't help but want to defect. Even if he put away his mobile phone, he still wanted to see how the battle was going on GOG.
After pinching his nose and watching a few ioi games, Pei Qian discovered a problem.
The level of this competition is really not good!
On the one hand, ioi's game mechanics are relatively backward, and the heroes have no affinity with the audience; on the other hand, the levels of these teams are indeed uneven, and the games they play are not that big compared to high-scoring rankings. difference.
Although it can be watched, the team's coordination is very poor. It is obviously not like a whole team, but like five passers-by.
It would be okay if there is no GOG competition, but the two sides will hold the competition together and the outcome will be decided!
Most of the audience was originally more inclined to go to GOG. They only came to watch ioi because of the "Chinese-foreign competition" gimmick. However, after watching a few games, they found it boring and quickly rebelled.
This rebellion will never come back!
What's more, there are two or five guys jumping sideways repeatedly in the two live broadcast rooms, pulling away a large number of viewers from the ioi live broadcast room.
On the live broadcast website, the popularity of the two waxes and wanes, and the changes are very obvious.
What’s even more outrageous is that Pei Qian discovered that there were people sneaking out of the venue!
After all, the tickets are very cheap, half sold and half given away, so you won’t feel bad if you leave early.
These people obviously felt that the game was not fun to watch, and sitting here was a waste of time, so they left one after another.
Pei Qian almost wanted to vomit blood.
Don’t leave! Stay and continue watching!
He really wanted to speak out like this, but he knew very well that no matter how much he spoke, it would be useless. The players would vote with their feet.
Pei Qian sighed and leaned on his seat with mixed emotions.
Although the game will officially end tomorrow, judging from the current situation, I am afraid that the outcome is already doomed and there is no way to reverse it.
How can this be fixed?
……
……
July 24, Sunday.
Pei Qian did not go to watch the GOG or ioi game today, because the outcome was already decided, and if he went to watch it again, it would be nothing more than being whipped one more time.
Pei Qian browsed the forum for a long time last night and looked at the players' comments on the two games. Sure enough, there was no luck.
GOG has completely dampened the popularity of ioi competitions!
So much so that many players feel sorry for ioi.
“I feel really sad to see the popularity of the ioi competition continue to drop. The organizer must have spent a lot of money on the early promotion, but the results are good now. All the players attracted have become GOG popular! "
"Yes, there are examples of die-hard ioi fans switching to GOG around me..."
"No way, GOG is still too strong, mobile games and terminal games are interoperable, and games The mechanism is fun, and even professional games are better than ioi!"
"ioi is really miserable."
"It stands to reason that if a successful foreign game enters the domestic market, the game itself will be different. The quality is excellent, the updates are fast, and the operation activities are also very powerful. Is there any reason why it is not popular?”
“Well, it would be like this if there was no Tengda”
“Actually, ioi. The national server really didn’t make a single mistake. If the opponent was not GOG, they would have pushed it long ago. However, GOG is really too abnormal. They crowdfund games, promote Internet cafes, hold competitions... plus the initial double With terminal interoperability and season settlement rewards, we have already taken the lead in seizing the market, and every attack by ioi has been perfectly resolved. It’s so powerful!”
“Mr. Pei is a genius in operations”
p>"Indeed, Mr. Pei runs GOG, and ioi cannot win."
"Wait, isn't ioi also run by Tenda? Yangyang Games seems to be a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tenda Right?"
"Hey, do you know the difference between intimacy and distance? Do you understand the tactics of cultivating Gu?"
"Indeed. Mr. Pei definitely prefers GOG, this is his biological son.”
Pei Qian felt very tired after seeing these comments.
Where am I on?
Of course I am on ioi’s side! Needless to say!
However, let alone the players, even the people at Yangyang Games may not believe it.
Pei Qian was helpless. It seemed that this matter was a failure.
But if you think about the good things...
Will the ioi national server be able to stop losing money in the future?
Although it is unlikely that Lin Wan will leave Tenda to inherit the family business, after all this trouble, the outcome of GOG and ioi has been decided in the domestic market. Will he be happy if he continues to spend money on ioi? The ground is in ruins?
Pei Qian feels that people have to adapt to changes.
Since ioi really can’t help you, it seems good to change your thinking and make it a tool for losing money!
......
While thinking about future countermeasures, Pei Qian came to the cafe and listened to Qiu Hong's failure experience.
So far, Qiu Hong has shared several failed experiences.
Project management is chaotic.
Boss or other external intervention.
Cannot discover talents.
Weak common sense and poor communication.
The voices within the R&D team are notunified.
It must be said that these failure experiences are all Qiu Hong’s heartfelt words.
According to him, if any one of them is involved, project development will encounter difficulties, if two of them are involved, the research and development work will be mired in quagmire, and if three of them are involved, it will be hell on earth.
But Pei Qian discovered that these fatal problems have been miraculously solved within Tenda!
This is so fucking outrageous.
Just like in a race, everyone starts from the starting line. Pei Qian found that he seemed to be standing at the finish line as soon as he started.
But the key is, he really wants to run back!
In short, very stiff.
Among all the failed experiences, Pei Qian felt that only "the voices within the R&D team were not unified" and he could try to take advantage of it, but he had no idea how to take advantage of it.
I can only hope that Qiu Hong can share a more useful failure experience with himself today.
Qiu Hong took a sip of coffee and observed "Ma Yang's" expression: "Mr. Ma, your expression seems to be mixed."
Pei Qian nodded: "Yes. "
This is indeed true, but the things of "happiness" and "sorrow" are completely reversed.
Qiu Hong smiled: "There are many unsatisfactory situations in life, so Mr. Ma shouldn't take it too seriously."
"The failure experience I want to talk about today is iteration."
Pei Qian instantly became more energetic.
This seems to be a failure experience that can be used directly!
The so-called iteration is actually an updated version.
Like many games that are updated from 1.0 to 1.1 and then to 2.0, this is considered iteration.
Qiu Hong continued: "Mr. Ma, you may have doubts. Isn't iteration a necessary factor for the success of all projects? How can it lead to failure?"
"The key is, Does iteration have an accurate goal? ”
“All failed iterations have one thing in common, that is, no one knows what the ultimate form of this game or product will be, and they are always left to chance. , It doesn’t matter what you change.”
“Demands change at any time, and changes are never-ending.”
“This kind of behavior means that everyone is not sure about the final form of the product. It is clear that the result is that the more changes are made, the more deviations and chaos become. On the surface, the project gets better with each iteration, but in fact it keeps deviating from the correct path and is ultimately irreversible.”
"This is the case for many games. The prototype was originally very clear, but during the development process, I always wanted more things, so I kept iterating and adding new things, and finally changed it to four images."
"Especially when the two failure factors of 'wrong iteration' and 'inconsistent voices within the project' are combined, it will be a super, super, super terrible disaster!"
“The whole project will be bogged down forever.In the endless internal friction, it is like a cruise ship stuck in a whirlpool. Even the best helmsman cannot bring it out. He can only watch it sink and disintegrate bit by bit, hopelessly. "
Pei Qian's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Yes, the money was not wasted!
Finally learned a sure-fire move from Qiu Hong!< /p>
Tengda’s games did go through iterations and updated versions in the past, but at that time, the purpose of updating the version was very clear, so it unfortunately succeeded.
But now, Qiu Hong’s game has been updated. Using theory as a guide, Pei Qian suddenly felt that there was a glimmer of victory in front of him!
The voices within the project were not unified, and then they were forced to iterate, overturning, redoing, and iteratively upgrading version after version. Finally, before settling the account, I posted a four-dimensional image.
“Mr. Qiu, thank you! "Pei Qian's eyes shone with sincerity.
Qiu Hong was a little flattered and hurriedly said: "Mr. Ma, you don't have to be polite. This is also a matter of loyalty and entrustment to others. "
"Besides, what I share are all failed experiences. If Mr. Ma wants to take advantage of them, he still needs to learn to think reversely. "
Pei Qian is smiling.
Reverse thinking?
No, I can directly use these failure experiences!
Sure enough, there are benefits to studying more, otherwise how could you think of such a way to lose money?
This money is spent, and it is earned with blood!
......
......
Monday, July 25th.
The third phase of the arms race between GOG and ioi finally came to an end.
Yesterday afternoon. The competition on both sides determined the champions and awarded prizes and trophies.
However, the matter of who is the champion is not important.
The important thing is that after this time. During the competition, all players and clubs are clearly aware of the fact that in China, ioi is really not good!
In the visible future, the country will be dominated by GOG, and this competition will be even more... It is to completely consolidate GOG's dominance!
...
DGE E-Sports Club
The members of H4 Club and DGE Club are waving goodbye.
Team leader Su was talking to Zhang Yuan about the future of the domestic e-sports industry.
Although it was a pity that the H4 club came in second place in yesterday’s final, they still felt sorry for the repeated abuse. , for them who did not have high hopes, this is already a quite surprising result.
