Chapter 41 Dark Soul!

Until he put pen to paper and signed the contract, Ivan still felt that this experience was like a dream.

“From the time you sign the contract, your game can only be put on our mall in addition to being put on the PC.” Ai Wen looked at Ye Feng.

At present, Ye Feng’s games, even if they are listed on XGP’s game mall, cannot bring much help to the sales of console devices.

“If possible, I would like to learn more about Bloodborne. After all, I would like to rely on him to make a comeback.” Ivan spread his hands. He was still quite interested in that game.

That picture has great appeal.

Ye Feng tilted his head and looked at Aiwen, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.

"Huh? Relying on it to make a comeback? Why?" Even Carter couldn't help but asked in confusion.

"???" Ivan stared at his friend, "Didn't we agree to **** him? How can I **** him if I don't even understand him?"

 “I didn’t say it was a blood escort.”

“Yeah, I didn’t say that.” Carter nodded.

Veins appeared one after another on Alvin's forehead. He clenched his hands into fists and said, "Then what game? There are only a year and a half left before the release of the next generation console. Besides Bloodborne, what else can you tell me?"

Game consoles are not products like mobile phones that change every year. They are only updated every four years.

Before the console is released, there will be plenty of gimmicks, such as next-generation updates, some shocking big-budget games, and major breakthroughs in price...

If you don’t need an excellent **** masterpiece to attract players to buy the game, the appeal of the hardware alone will be minimal.

"I already have an answer to this question. If you want to ask, I can only give you a name now." Ye Feng is not annoyed. Now Ai Wen can be considered a partner and wants to know some details. It's a normal thing.

 “Dark Souls.”

 …

 Ivan didn’t know how he left. He pressed his stomach, and the bulging pain felt like a dull knife cutting flesh.

I just listened to Ye Feng’s talk about Dark Souls, and I felt a little full without realizing it.

 The moment I stood up from the chair, my whole body was a little shaken.

"Carter, I finally understand how you were brainwashed." Ivan supported his friend and took a break from time to time.

"Those things are wonderful, aren't they?" Carter looked at his friend with a smile. Every time he listened to Ye Feng talk about games, he couldn't help but be fascinated by them.

There are so many surprising things in his mind that sometimes Carter will be blocked by the rich and turbulent information he tells.

 But when raising questions, Ye Feng was able to sort them out clearly and explain them one by one.

"But why did you agree to him before he said these things?" Carter couldn't help but ask. Based on his understanding of Alvin, he was not a rash person.

 Otherwise, I would not have reached the position of CEO.

 “I don’t believe in him, I believe in you.

“Carter, we have known each other for twenty years, and have known each other since school. Just like you know me, I also know you.

"When he said he wanted an **** opportunity and you didn't refute it, I actually agreed to him in my heart." Ivan patted his friend on the back.

 How can we keep friends for a long time?

 That is to keep the same pace and maintain a motivated spirit.

 Sincerity, dedication, trust, a friend in need is a friend indeed.

"The fact that you can bring him to me means that you recognize his ability, and it also means that in your eyes, he can achieve my requirements." Ivan and Carter walked side by side, eating too much and walking two As expected, the body feels much more comfortable every step of the way.

"The reason why I gave him a few more words to embarrass him later is because I gave that trust to you, not to him." Ivan glanced at the crescent moon above his head.

 Before we met, the sun was setting in the west.

　Now, the bright moon is in the sky.

"That contract is the biggest concession I can give during my term. Anyway, if I fail, then this contract will have no effect." Ivan spread his hands, "I have no way out."

Early the next morning, Xbox and Sprout Studios jointly released a message.

　　[Xbox and Sprout Studios reached a partnership today. 】

　　【Starting from today, games produced by Sprout Studio will be available on the XGP Mall, and Mr. Blackstar will lead the **** for the next generation Xbox console in the future. 】

Once the news was sent out, it was like a huge boulder making huge waves on the calm waters of the gaming industry!

　　‘Did I miss something? ’

“Did someone edit my memory? Why don’t I know what happened in the middle?” ’

　　‘The span of Sprout Studio is really too big! ’

 ‘The old thief is awesome. ’

 ‘It can’t be that Xbox is attracted to Bloodborne, right? Come on, what can you tell from just a picture? ’

　　‘Who dares to buy his console again? ’

 …

As soon as the news came out, it was no surprise that it was questioned by many players.

The console has a large audience, and those players come from all over the world. At this time, they expressed their dissatisfaction with this decision in different languages.

　　"Evan! Don't mess around, I don't want to clean up a mess!" Ivan has turned off the external contact number. He knows what will happen. He has now turned off his mobile phone and cut off his own network.

 Even so, he still received internal communications from the company.

“Lambert, this is my term, and I am the current CEO.” Ivan was preparing lunch for himself while talking to Lambert on the phone.

 If a company develops well, it naturally does not need to change managers frequently.

 But just because it is not good now, it is necessary to change the management, hoping that the next person's decision-making can lead the company to prosperity.

 Lambert is Alvin’s successor.

“You’re making it worse, what should I do next?” Lambert kept yelling. He didn’t think he would be able to improve the situation, but he definitely didn’t want to take over a worse situation.

"Maybe it will get better and better in my hands? Then it will always be me, and it won't be your turn." Ivan was lying on the sofa watching the game news.

He is looking at information about Dead Cells. If nothing else, it will win the best independent game award at the end of the year.

"Shit! I will report it to the company, just wait and see! I will stop you!" Lambert yelled angrily and then hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy signal from the receiver, Alvin picked up the phone and curled his lips, "It's up to you."

 Just as he put down his cell phone, the ringtone rang again.

Looking at the incoming call information displayed on the screen, Alvin had a headache. The call must have come too quickly.

 This time there is really pressure.

 On the screen of the mobile phone, the incoming call notification from ‘Company Headquarters’ is constantly jumping...
