nOffers From the Leading Game Development Companies
nAlthough Angelica was surprised by the call from Steam, Su Ping had told her about the situation beforehand.
nSu Ping expected major game development companies like Steam to try to find him through Angelica.
nThat was why he had already told Angelica how to deal with them.
nAngelica adjusted her state of mind and replied indifferently.
n“Mr. Director, I’ve recently been very busy with my live stream work. I may not have time to talk with you for the time being. I’m very sorry.”
nAfter being refused, Steam’s director continued.
n“Wait for a minute. I’ll tell you why I’m reaching out to you first.”
n“Steam believes that Zombie Apocalypse and its following seasons will have a bright future. We are also interested in the game producer.”
n“These are the thoughts of our company’s president. We hope to find the producer with our greatest sincerity. We are looking forward to inviting him to cooperate with Steam!”
n“I know that you know the producer. Please pass my words to him.”
n“Steam can promise that if he is willing to cooperate with us, our platform will invest as many resources as possible to support his following games in the future.”
n“Moreover, if he’s willing to join Steam, he will be promoted right away to the position of head of the platform’s technical department! He’ll also receive the company’s full support in the future!”
nAngelica’s heart shuddered as she listened to the director’s words.
nSteam seemed to put a lot of effort into winning Su Ping at all costs.
n“Alright, I’ll pass your words to the producer.”
n“However, I’d like to give you heads-up. The producer doesn’t intend to join any game company at the moment, so the final result may be different from what you wish.”
nSteam’s director seemed calm about it, which showed his strength as a senior executive.
nThen, the director hung up the phone after having a small talk with Angelica.
nBesides Steam, Angelica also received phone calls from Storm Gaming Company and other famous game development companies worldwide.
nThe companies basically had the same intentions as Steam’s director.
nThey hoped that Angelica would help them get in touch with Su Ping to get a chance to cooperate with him.
nIn the end, their requests were naturally rejected by Angelica, or she ended the call with delaying tactics.
nSu Ping wanted her to show such an attitude.
nSu Ping had told Angelica that he didn’t want to cooperate with any game development company. He wanted to be an independent game producer.
nOnce he joined one of the major game development companies, it would be difficult for him to maintain his ambitions of creating high-quality games, even if the senior executives supported him with vast resources and paid attention to his work.
nIt would likely be that he would gradually become the type of person he hated!
n“Su Ping, are you really going to turn down all the invitations from the major game development companies? That’s such a pity!”
n“If you join Steam or Storm Gaming Company, your game can easily achieve better results with their resources!”
n“Moreover, the salary and benefits must be extraordinary! Are you willing to give up on it?”
nIn the evening, Angelica told Su Ping everything that had happened during the day on the phone. She felt that it was a pity.
nTo be honest, Angelica believed that she would have agreed to it without hesitation if she were in Su Ping’s position.
nSu Ping smiled after hearing her words.
n“Haha! Of course, it’s a pity.”
n“However, my dream is to make more good games. Do you think that I can still produce games without being affected by money after joining these companies?”
n“Can the games still be exquisite and have such high quality?”
nAngelica was silent.
nSu Ping continued.
n“So, I believe that making a good game is more important than making more money. Thank you for helping me reply to those people today. Thank you for your hard work.”
nAfter hearing Su Ping’s words, Angelica felt she had rediscovered him.
nShe admired Su Ping from the bottom of her heart!
nIn this era, just a few game producers weren’t tempted by money.
nIn the meantime, Zombie Apocalypse’s popularity led to numerous comments from people interested in the identity of the game’s producer.
nNetizens also began to voice their requests on the internet, hoping that the producer could let people know his identity to let them pay their respect to him.
nThere were also many netizens concerned about the following seasons of the game.
nAfter two days of hard work, I’ve finally cleared Zombie Apocalypse I. I’m looking forward to playing in the following seasons. When will Zombie Apocalypse II be released?
nWho’s the game producer, and which game development company does he work for? I really want to see how he looks!
nDo the Zombie Apocalypse series going to keep being a free game? I’m curious how the game producer plans to recoup his production costs!
nWhile facing all kinds of comments on the internet, Su Ping decided to take the initiative to get in touch with the netizens without exposing his personal information.
nHe wanted to answer the players’ questions to let them rest assured.
nAfter discussing with Angelica, Su Ping obtained her permission to get in touch with the netizens through her live stream room.
nSu Ping would directly answer the players’ questions through the live stream and strive to increase the worldwide players’ confidence in the following Zombie Apocalypse series.
nAlthough Su Ping believed that his game was high-quality and that no one could resist playing it, he still had to promote it.
nSu Ping also posted the announcement through Angelica’s forum account.
nDue to the popularity of Zombie Apocalypse, Angelica’s forum account, which initially only had a million fans, now has more than ten million!
nShe became one of the most popular streamers in the gaming live-stream industry.
nMoreover, everyone knew that Angelica had the closest relationship with the producer. Many people would visit Angelica’s account almost every day to see if there were any new posts.
nAs a result, when the most recent announcement was made, word spread worldwide that the producer of Zombie Apocalypse would be meeting the players in the live stream room.
nIt caused a huge sensation worldwide, and even many people who didn’t play games were attracted by it. They began to pay attention to the Zombie Apocalypse, which appeared out of nowhere.
nIt was hard to imagine how popular the live stream would be!
