Chapter 226 Thursday, March 22nd

Tengda Group, Advertising and Marketing Department.

Meng Chang arrived at his workstation early in the morning, turned on his computer, and started experiencing the demo of *Mission and Choice* again.

The Advertising and Marketing Department, like other departments, had a standard eight-hour work system with weekends off. When a proposal was needed, there could be some flexible working hours, but they were strictly controlled.

As the person in charge, Meng Chang didn't have to abide by these rules. His working hours were completely arbitrary; he could come and go as he pleased without having to clock in or out.

After all, his commission was based on the promotional effect of the advertising plan, so clocking in and out was really unnecessary.

However, for the past few days, he had been diligently working eight hours a day because he wanted to ensure that this promotional plan for *Mission and Choice* was foolproof.

In the office area, only some of the other employees in the Advertising and Marketing Department were working seriously.

Because this marketing plan required relatively little content to be designed, it was basically just modifying the original promotional materials of these games, so there wasn't enough work to go around.

Those who weren't working were watching competitions, playing games, watching dramas, or browsing the web.

Most of the employees in the Advertising and Marketing Department followed the news of Tengda's various industries every day, mainly for work needs, hoping to come up with excellent promotional plans at any time.

"Tuowei Live is doing really well now. The two leagues support the heat of the entire platform. Now, when many players talk about e-sports competitions, their first reaction is to go to Tuowei Live to watch."

"The most uncomfortable should be Wolf Fang Live. After all, their positioning is a game live broadcast platform, and being robbed of this piece of the live broadcast cake is a bit of a blow."

"I have to say, President Pei is a planner."

"Indeed, the live broadcast field is already a red sea. Many big capitals have entered the market. Many platforms spend a lot of money and are lively for a while, but in the end, they burn money in vain and can only leave sadly. As a result, President Pei entered the market strongly and was able to gain a firm foothold in the current situation. He's really too strong!"

"The key is that President Pei didn't actually burn much money on Tuowei Live. Every penny was spent where it mattered."

Listening to the discussion of the two colleagues, Meng Chang couldn't help but silently raise his evaluation of President Pei in his heart.

Although President Pei's evaluation in Meng Chang's heart was already very high, it didn't affect the possibility of continuing to raise it, after all, it was an unattainable height.

However, Meng Chang's mentality was not affected too much, and he continued to concentrate on experiencing the demo of *Mission and Choice*.

"Strange, this game doesn't feel very fun."

"Maybe I'm not a hardcore gamer, so I can't appreciate its fun?"

Meng Chang was simply forcing himself to repeatedly experience the demo of this game.

Because he didn't play games much in the first place, and had never played real-time strategy games at all, it was difficult for him to appreciate the fun of this type of game.

The overall difficulty of the *Mission and Choice* demo changed with the plot, and the simulation elements were added in the middle stage. After the addition, the soldiers would run around randomly without listening to commands.

If it was combined with the movie plot, this change would be very natural and would be able to mobilize the player's emotions.

However, the *Mission and Choice* demo had not yet added the movie part, so Meng Chang couldn't get the plot and naturally couldn't understand the meaning of this gameplay.

In short, Meng Chang was very uncomfortable playing, and even had a feeling that "even if I promoted this game casually, it would not be popular."

But fortunately, he quickly suppressed this dangerous tendency. President Pei made one game after another, and Meng Chang was not stupid enough to use his shallow game experience to judge whether President Pei's game would be popular.

Anyway, it's always okay to plan for the worst.

After forcing himself to play *Mission and Choice* for a while, Meng Chang quit the game and planned to relax a little.

At this time, he saw that Hu Xianbin from Tengda Games Department had sent him a message.

"The official platform has been communicated with, and the collection of classic domestic games has been compiled, and the relevant companies have also been communicated with."

"Now there are two more questions: when will this collection be released, and what about the promotional materials?"

Some of these classic domestic game companies have gone out of business, and the games have been managed by the official platform. Some companies are still around, but they have been discontinued for many years, so the official platform casually talked about it and repackaged these games into a collection for sale.

But this collection was ultimately requested by Tengda Games, so the official platform did a good deed to the end and let Tengda decide when this collection would be released and what kind of promotional materials to prepare.

Meng Chang considered it slightly: "Release it as soon as it's ready. I've prepared a version of the promotional materials, which can be submitted to the official platform."

Hu Xianbin quickly replied: "Okay."

Meng Chang was fully responsible for this promotional plan. Hu Xianbin and the official platform had no requirements. Anyway, as long as the entire promotional event was not too outrageous.

...

A moment later, the person in charge of the connection from Tengda Games Department received the promotional materials from the Advertising and Marketing Department.

Hu Xianbin also received a copy and clicked it open to take a look.

"This..."

Although he had been psychologically prepared for these promotional materials, he still felt a little surprised when he really saw them.

Meng Chang had said before that the promotional materials would focus on promoting these old games, but Hu Xianbin thought that they would have to be repackaged and made more beautiful, right?

As a result, now looking at it, Meng Chang directly brought over the promotional materials from history. Although there were some slight changes, the changes were very small.

The game's background images, slogans, etc. were all unchanged, only the materials were replaced with higher-definition ones, more refined ones, and the layout was slightly adjusted to ensure that the promotional posters for all the games had a similar structure.

That's all!

Although subtle changes had been made, Hu Xianbin was able to distinguish them because he had seen the promotional pictures of the old game *Mission and Choice* in advance. Now, 99% of the players would probably not be able to distinguish them.

If these promotional materials were uploaded, they would probably directly let everyone dream back to the nineties and experience a sense of time travel.

Hu Xianbin looked at the employee who was in contact with the Advertising and Marketing Department: "Are you sure it's this set?"

The employee nodded: "Yeah, is it a bit inappropriate? Should we let the Advertising and Marketing Department change it again?"

Hu Xianbin shook his head: "Let's use this set. President Pei has already handed over the promotional plan to Meng Chang. Even if you don't believe in Meng Chang, you should believe in President Pei."

"Besides, Meng Chang has already done several promotional plans, and the effects are all good. There should be no problem this time."

...

In the afternoon, Binhu Community.

Qiao Liang had just finished eating the scheduled Moyu takeaway, leaning on the sofa comfortably enjoying the warm sunshine outside.

He opened his phone and habitually checked the fan group.

Sure enough, the fan group was full of people asking when the new video would be released and when the live broadcast would start.

Qiao Liang silently flipped through the chat history and continued to play dead.

"Comrades, it's really not that I want to be a pigeon, it's mainly because I don't have any inspiration."

"My kind of creative artistic work is not like a hen laying eggs. The key is to look at the mood."

After self-comfort, Qiao Liang sat in front of the computer as if nothing had happened, opened the official platform, and wanted to find out if there were any new games recently.

"Huh? There seems to be a 'Relive Classic Domestic Games' collection."

"Why are these old games from the nineties being brought up again? Aren't these all a bunch of overplayed games?"

"Oh, I see, maybe it's to remember the past and commemorate it."

Qiao Liang didn't think much, and clicked in to check the details of these games.

"Some old games from many years ago have been re-listed on the official platform."

"Don't tell me, it's quite nostalgic."
