Game Entertainment Empire

It had already been prepared in advance. After Li Yang raised this question, Yang Chen smiled: "Yes, Resident Evil is a game we are developing, and we have invested more than 80 million for this. It's definitely a big deal."

This is not bragging. Even if the publicity costs during this period are not included, the development cost of "Resident Evil" has reached 80 million expenditures.

Listening to Yang Chen's words, Li Yang was stunned and felt a little unbelievable. At the same time, the players in the live broadcast room were also stunned, and the practitioners in the industry who were watching the live broadcast even had their jaws dropped.

80 million development cost?

This is on the way to the 3A level!

Everyone was startled.

This development cost is said to be high, not so high, but it can never be said to be low, even if it is placed in China, it is definitely the top development cost.

If it is the three major development investments of NetDragon, Tenghua, and Phoenix, no one will be too surprised; even the games developed by some second-tier game factories in China are basically maintained at this number, and everyone will not be too surprised.

But this is the fourth game of Nebula Studio. What kind of games did they develop before?

Needless to say, "The Binding of Isaac", with its rudimentary graphics, can be said to be a pure independent game. It won't rely on the plot or picture quality, but only by creative gameplay.

The development cost of "Octopian Traveler" is quite high, but the pixel art style itself, coupled with the traditional JRGP mode, "Octopian Traveler" is really not a big production.

"Escape" has indeed set off an unknown popularity, but the linear game, coupled with the constraints of horror games, the sales volume is not as scary as thought, and the development cost is actually not too high, it is still a small and broad-based game. game.

But why did this fourth game suddenly rise several grades?

It's like going to junior high school after elementary school. Now that junior high school is over, shouldn't you go to high school? Why did you just not go to high school to take the college entrance examination?

Everyone was stunned and shocked.

Only in Nebula's office, Xu Yu, who was watching the live broadcast, hated that iron is not steel.

"Eh!!"

Looking at Yang Chen who was interviewing, he clapped his hands and let out a sigh. Xu Yu said that he was very uncomfortable.

"Manager Xu, did you say something wrong in the interview?" Wang Yaliang, who was holding a steel ball and squinting with a smile, heard Xu Yu's sigh, and couldn't help but be curious.

Wang Ye, Chen Shu and others, who were also watching the interview, also looked over.

"The problem is big, and others don't know how much we spent. How can Mr. Yang honestly say that the development cost is 80 million? He directly said that it cost 100 million, which will be of great help to the follow-up publicity." Xu Yu said with a look of regret.

You are too young, why are you so sincere?

The development cost is 80 million, and it is not a normal operation to report 100 million to the outside world. Why do you say 80 million if you have to spend 80 million?

So honest.

While Xu Yu was looking very indisputable, Yang Chen had already released the promotional trailer for "Resident Evil" through the live broadcast room of the game starry sky.

Seeing the propaganda notice that appeared, the players watching the live broadcast cheered up one after another.

It was dark, and a narration sounded after two or three seconds.

'This is not the first day I imagined...'

The camera cuts, and a man in a police uniform with a gun in his hand, who can only see his back, slowly walks towards the closed gate of the police station.

Dark night, rapid drizzle.

Then the camera changes, the perspective of driving in the rain...

In the convenience store holding a pistol, the injured policeman...

empty highway,

and a ruined town...

with unknown monsters.

'Due to the citywide (Raccoon City) outbreak...'

'It is recommended that you take shelter at the Raccoon City Police Department...'

'Free food and medical supplies will be provided to everyone in need...'

Accompanied by the broadcast, what appeared in the video was a messy city street, destroyed street lights, vehicles that exploded and burned, and the dull BGM sound echoed.

The sound of the broadcast slowly fades, and the camera cuts to a convenience store, holding a flashlight and looking at the blood on the ground in the store.

'There seems to be something wrong. ’

Following a burst of doubts, the camera zoomed out, and the man who had previously appeared in front of the police appeared on the screen, walking slowly in the corridor of the convenience store.

Immediately after the BGM began to rush, a police officer appeared in front of the camera.

'Back off, sir, I'm grabbing this man...'

Before he could finish speaking, the originally rushing BGM made a sharp sound like a car driving at a high speed when he suddenly stepped on the brakes, and then the policeman who was caught by the policeman threw him on the ground, violently. It bit on his neck, and the screen turned bright red as if it was stained with blood.

With a dry face, pale eyeballs, exposed teeth covered in blood, with a piece of fuzzy flesh in his mouth, he stared straight at the camera.

'What the hell? ’

Looking at the bloody scene, the man who couldn't see his face before finally revealed his face.

At the same time, subtitles appeared next to him, telling the players his name - Leon.

Lyon, who was wearing a police uniform, used a pistol in his hand and shot the zombie that was pounced on him, blasting its head.

Then the camera changed quickly, and at the door of the convenience store, a woman in a red jacket was opening the door, and the subtitles next to her showed her name - Claire.

And behind her, a zombie slowly walked towards her.

‘Squat down! ’

Leon, holding a pistol in his hand, called to Claire at the door of the convenience store.

As he crouched down instantly, gunshots rang out.

The zombie who did not know when to appear behind him was shot in the head.

‘Come on! ’

Driving cars, desolate cities, and countless zombies in the city.

The lens changes here.

The police station is full of blood and dead police officers, and the zombies who are walking in the police station are walking in and out.

Surviving sheriff, and police officers.

'I'm giving you orders, rookie! ’

'Save me, please! ’

An unknown and hideous monster like a hound.

'Get out of here, while there is still time...'

Facing a rushing zombie dog and a bullet headshot, a mysterious woman in a trench coat and sunglasses walked out of the darkness.

There is no narration after that, just a quick cut shot.

In the dark basement, monsters with eyes all over their bodies, monsters with hats, coats and leather shoes, and the corpses of girls lying on the stage.

In the end, it returned to darkness, and the depressing narration sounded.

'What is the name of God? ’

A burst of rapid music sounded, the picture stopped abruptly, and blood-red fonts appeared in the middle of the screen - "Resident Evil"
