Trantor: 549690339
Undoubtedly, yers were dumbfounded the moment they saw this trailer disguised as a tourist advertisement for the new game!
Originally, everyone was watching the Metropolitan News, focusing only on the news rted to the game.<div>
It was just at the end of the program, due to the somewhat ambiguous “City Traffic” news, everyone started to specte about its meaning.
But before they could guess much, they were hit in the face out of nowhere by this bombshell from Cloud Dream!
They were not prepared at all!
Shortly after their moment of shock, the yers immediately got excited!
And it wasn’t just ordinary excitement, they were so excited that they felt their blood boiling, as if there was a fire burning in their hearts, eager to know more!
This fervor quickly spread to thements and thement section.
The yers kept rewinding the progress bar, watching this “promotional clip” over and over again, unable to suppress the excitement and desire in their hearts.
“A new city! A new map! Completely different style!”
“New game! I don’t care! No matter what, it’s a new game today!”
“Yeah! Didn’t the Pure Gentleman go to the bar for some insights too! It must be for this!”
“I don’t care! I want to know all the news about this game today!”<div>
“Where is the know-it-all guy?! Where is the uncle?! Come and analyze! Come and spoil it!”
As with all themotion, yers started to have fun with it:
“Uncle is here! Let me share an absolutely urate message: in the new game, there is a dog with a very important role!”
“That’s obvious? Do you think we didn’t know that?!”
“It’s all connected! Everything is connected! The new game must let us y a wanderer in Citv, who finds a Strav doz and is healed. He chooses to leave his past decadent life and uses his savings to open a dog café, healing the lost and lonely souls in Night City!”
“So, the new game is a warm and healing game incorporating simtion management, pet grooming and episodic narrative elements?”
“Yes, yes, yes!”
“I almost believed it, really!”
In an instant, the discussion about the new gamepletely overshadowed the discussion about the match.
All kinds of wild guesses were flying around.
The marketing channels on various tforms immediately followed up, posting a few screenshots and starting to specte.<div>
Video marketing channels were no exception. They downloaded clips about Night City, yed them on a loop while talking nonsense to fill up the time, and then submitted them as homemade drafts to make a quick buck from the traffic.
That would have been fine, and Lincoln didn’t bother to care.
But what was even more outrageous was a marketing channel called “Old Man Talks About Games”. Without obtaining any authorization from Cloud Dream, they uploaded the video and made it a paid video, charging their fans for ess.
It cost 10 dors to watch!
What’s even more outrageous is that the video, taking advantage of the hype, reached 30,000 views in a very short time!
This means that in just a short time, this video generated a whopping 300,000 in sales!
Even after the tform’s cut, there was no doubt that this was a huge profit.
Of course, as the old saying goes, for every gift that fate gives you, it secretly marks a price.
Lincoln doesn’t know what price fate has marked for this marketing channel, but whatever it is, he thinks it’s too slow and ns to ask Lawyer Luke to expedite it for him.
“Mavis! Time for work! We can now update our cklist!”
“Yay!”Mavis was overjoyed and immediately updated the cklist.<div>
This is just the beginning, the owner of this ount will receive awyer’s letter from Cloud Dream tomorrow morning.
And then, depending on his residence address and the administrative process of the relevant department, a court subpoena will also be delivered within two to three days.
After Lincoln’s original incident of “sending awyer’s letter to 10 million people”, sendingwyer’s letters on the Inte has truly lost its deterrent power.
But it also depends on the person!
Lincoln’s fiery temper, along with his track record of battling with the media, was well known to all.
Thewyers’ letters he sent seriously, werepletely different in their deterrent power.
—Because everyone knew that Lincoln always followed through on his word!
yers enthusiastically discussed for most of the night. Just when they were about to take a break, Lincoln once again updated his media cklist, exciting the yers once more.
Especially when the yers noticed that the media outlet “Old Man Talks
About Games”, which had made it onto the cklist, had been cklisted by Lincoln for creating a paid video that “predicted the new game from Cloud Dream”.
This was big news!
You should know, yers are a group of individuals with extremely strong curiosity, especially at this point in time, they are craving for any news about the new game.
This led to an even crazier incident: countless yers, even though they knew it was probably nonsense from a marketing channel, still couldn’t help but spend 10 dors, wanting to see what was said, whether they were cklisted by Lincoln because they correctly guessed the key content of the new game. Anyway, 10 dors isn’t a lot, just enough to satisfy their curiosity!
This resulted in the video’s views soaring.
By the time Mavis noticed this issue, the paid video had already surpassed 200,000 views.
Lincoln had no choice but to contact Luke in the middle of the night, not waiting for the workday, he urgently sent out thewyer’s letter.
He made it clear to everyone that the reason for the cklist was because this marketing channel unauthorizedly used Cloud Dream’s video to profit, infringing on Cloud Dream’s intellectual property rights.
Seeing thiswyer’s letter, the yers with normal thinking calmed down naturally.
But yers with unusual ways of thinking were different, they thought: Cloud Dream must be feeling guilty! The next step would be to contact the tform to delete this “inside info” video, I need to hurry up and watch it! Not only do I have to watch it, but I also have to download it!
As a result, Lincoln, sitting on his bed in his pajamas, watched as the number of people buying this video kept soaring, rising toward the 500,000 mark, suddenly feeling a bit tired.
“Forget it, let it ruin everything.” Lincoln tossed his phone away, turned over and fell asleep.
And he slept soundly until daybreak.
During the process of washing and cleaning, Mavis, as always full of energy, happily told him:st night, the news about Cloud Dream sessfully dominated the hot search list.
Counting the matter of the marketing channel, at the peak time, Cloud Dream upied a full five of the top ten hot searches.
Even the steady sales curve of the Mirage Console had suddenly surged a lot.
At the same time, she couldn’t help but ask: “Master, should we expand our production line?”
Lincoln thought about it, the money saved for buying the building was temporarily not needed.
The cost of assembling a team for Kyle to research and develop prosthetics, as well as to expand the production line of prosthetics, was being spent at a rate far less than the speed at which he was making money.
Looking at it this way, it is possible to expand the production line.
Moreover, after the team expands, the output of content will increase again, hence making it the right time to venture into overseas channels.
“Let Zhou Jingzheng know, prepare to expand our production scale.” Lincoln began to instruct Mavis, “Also, Mavis, check our emails again, filter out emails from the vassal states of Izumo and Baekje, see if there are any we can cooperate with. ”
Izumo and Baekje, being vassal states of Daxia, have history dating back several hundred years.
Not only is their cultural origin deeply influenced by Daxia, more importantly, their nationalmunications, industry, inte and other infrastructure, were basically developed with the help of Daxia.
They are adhering to Daxia’s standards in full.
For yers from Izumo and Baekje, it is much easier to enter Cloud Dream’s server to y gamespared to yers from America and Europe!
At least the inte standards are the same, there are no distinct barriers keeping them out.
In other words, if Cloud Dream wants to set up servers there, there will be virtually no obstacles.
Lincoln’s goal is to select a distributor to help sell consoles.
As for vital aspects such as servers and yer data, Lincoln would never allow any foreignpanies to get involved!
Not even if it’s a vassal state! No matter how obedient they are!
