Rising from the Coffin!

"What... what's going on?"

Song Zhicheng stared at the chart in front of him, his eyes wide.

He had worked in the ACG industry for seven years as an operator, worked in companies of all sizes, and operated game projects for many years. He considered himself well-informed.

But he had never seen a scene like this today!

Before today, the entire May revenue of the Frost Snow Project was less than 3 million, and it was already lying in the ICU, ready to be sent to the crematorium at any time.

It was not wrong at all to be predicted to close down by Game Observer.

But now, less than 10 minutes after the trailer was released, players had passionately recharged 100,000 monthly cards!

Total revenue: 3 million.

It surpassed the total revenue of the previous 30 days in one fell swoop!

This was just the monthly card revenue, and the total amount of direct top-ups was already approaching one million.

Only 10 minutes! Compared with the games at the top of the rankings, this data may not be worth mentioning—those are terrifying behemoths with revenues of hundreds of millions at every turn.

But the Frost Snow Project was lying on the coffin board waiting to be buried one second ago, and the next second it jumped up, grabbed the suona, and danced while playing it.

The contrast was too strong.

The game hasn't even been updated yet!

Song Zhicheng rationally knew why—

Many players loved the new character displays in the trailer so much that they couldn't wait for the update the next day and wanted to draw these characters in advance.

However, the Frost Snow Project had been half-dead for two months, with a large loss of players and the online rate falling to the bottom.

The people who were still playing would log in to clear their daily tasks and then log off, and basically didn't save up many gacha resources.

Now that they suddenly wanted characters, they could only recharge to draw them.

But...

It was still outrageous!

There were so many characters in the trailer, but only 8 of them had been completely remade. The rest had only confirmed their illustrations, and the Modeling Department and Animation Department were still working overtime.

Of course, then again.

With Zhu Meng's volume, completing the remake of eight characters in one month, and such a high-quality and detailed remake, was almost a miracle in the eyes of its peers.

Song Zhicheng, an old man who had been in the ACG circle for more than seven years, although not a technical position, had enough industry common sense.

Because of this, he was both shocked and gratified when he looked at the constantly rising revenue curve, symbolizing the resurrection of the Frost Snow Project.

The almost obsessive efforts of his colleagues in the past month had paid off. How could he not be gratified?

He quickly sorted out the data and told the boss the good news.

Xu Meng had returned to his office and, after seeing the data, decisively forwarded it to the office group—

"The players' eyes are discerning, and they can see the efforts everyone has made."

"The players' real money is your strongest support!"

The group was filled with cheers: "Awesome!!"

"The boss is wise!"

"Yay, bonuses and holidays are in sight!"

"I knew it, the butt I worked on for 30,000 faces is invincible!"

"Help me up, I can work on another big mine!"

"I didn't dare to speak when I was browsing the forum before, but now I directly browse the forum with my real name! I'm so proud!"

"Someone actually said Bu Erxi was vulgar? Just say you're jealous!"

"A classmate messaged me privately and asked me to teach him how to draw butts, hahaha."

The office group was surprisingly active, with everyone excitedly chatting non-stop.

In the past month, even when models came to the company for a fashion show, the group wasn't this lively.

After that, everyone buried themselves in work. With short deadlines, heavy workloads, and an uncertain future for the project, the work pressure was incredibly high.

The entire company was in a state of high tension.

But now, both the online response and the direct data fully proved the success of the boss's remake direction.

As a result, the invisible pressure was greatly reduced, and the suppressed emotions were relieved.

Everyone was practically chatting like crazy in a retaliatory manner, to express the excitement in their hearts.

Xu Meng certainly wouldn't be a killjoy and jump out to stop them.

He happily watched everyone chat, while browsing social networks and game forums, drinking wolfberry water, leisurely eating melons and watching the fun.

First, naturally, was the comment section of Weiguang's trailer (it hasn't been released on P Station yet)——

"One word, awesome!"

"Zhu Meng, you did a great job!"

"At this moment, the 100 ero-games in my computer pale in comparison."

"Why isn't it updating yet?!"

"Wuwuwu, I really like Tong Que, @Zhu Meng boss, can you give her to me? I'm a student."

"After watching the trailer: Blood boiling! Thinking that I'm not yet an adult: Utter despair!"

"Why restrict it to 18 years old? Isn't the money of us high school students money?!"

"I want to report, Zhu Meng is discriminating against minors!"

"Hahahaha, let me tell you a joke, pilipili..."

Xu Meng flipped through more than a dozen pages, and everywhere he looked, there were players' excited and ecstatic comments.

They couldn't wait for the Frost Snow Project to update right now, and they even had the money ready for top-up.

As for the dissatisfaction of underage netizens, they could only be dissatisfied.

Xu Meng wouldn't relax on this.

The scale of the Frost Snow Project was already sensitive. If a child were to steal their parents' bank card and make it to the trending searches, the consequences would be much more serious than other games.

Plus, there were those friendly competitors who couldn't wait for their peers to die, and the game might be gone.

Xu Meng's risk radar was beeping like crazy.

You should be wild when it's time to be wild, and steady when it's time to be steady, so that you can last a long time.

After reading Weiguang's comment section, Xu Meng wanted to see the reaction of other ACG game communities.

But he quickly discovered a problem—

There was a big difference between the ACG game circle and the broader game circle:

In the broader game circle, everyone was a player, so they were all in the same camp, and they could get along harmoniously in one forum.

Helping each other and fighting against manufacturers together were very common things.

But in the ACG game circle, every ACG game company hoped that its users would always stay in its own community, and only play its own games, and not even talk about other games—if they had to talk about them, they could only say bad things.

Ideally, they could turn all the users of other companies into their own.

This concept led to the division and confrontation of ACG game communities.

ACG game players were artificially confined to closed small communities, and there was no public discussion community with enough influence.

Some players would even stand with the manufacturers and attack other players, and they would do anything to attack them.

It was simply outrageous.

Xu Meng didn't like this phenomenon, but there was nothing he could do about it.

——Zhu Meng only showed a tendency to rise from the coffin; it's still a long way from rectifying the industry.

He downloaded several competitor's apps to see the reactions of the ACG players.

Then, he was somewhat pleased to discover that this artificial closure was broken in a strange way by Zhu Meng today—

Almost all ACG communities were talking about Frost Snow Project, and several GIFs of Real Machine characters unleashing their ultimate moves were spreading everywhere.

[Big is good! White is beautiful! White and big, the ideal life] [Brothers, have you seen the Frost Snow Project trailer? I'm already downloading the client] [A trailer that's less than 5 minutes long made me change my underwear twice] [When will our game have big-breasted girls?] [Can the admins delete the posts a little slower? I haven't saved the GIF from just now]...

ACG players had never seen such high-quality, voluptuous game characters, let alone played them.

The stimulation was too straightforward and too intense, a completely different style compared to the various cute characters on the market.

This directly opened the door to a new world for them.

Their hearts were full of desire to express themselves, which they couldn't suppress at all.

But the community admins of each app insisted on jumping out, deleting their posts, and prohibiting them from discussing it.

Asking for monthly tickets, following, and recommendations!
