Anti-War Game: Starting from Normandy Campaign-Chapter 681 - 328: [Despair of Blue Star Film Studios: Polestar, You Motherf***ers] (4k)_2
If that’s the case.
It does make sense.
Other than death, there’s no lower starting point; this beginning is just... too unbelievable.
Now no one argues about who started from the bottom.
This person’s starting point is indeed the lowest, no doubt.
Fang Ming exited this preview CG and then looked at others. Each seemed pretty appealing, but watching them all was too much; he could only follow the suggestions of the live audience based on the bullet comments and play them one by one.
At the same time.
Fang Ming also opened the Polestar website forum.
The discussions about this screening edition were also heated on the forum.
The main point is.
They found that some of these characters’ words, combined with the preview’s CG, were simply overwhelming.
Some even started a poll to vote on which quotes from the 320 previews were the most stirring. Fang Ming glanced at the highly ranked quotes.
[If the bandit can go, so can I]
[The mountains and rivers still belong to Huaxia; the sun and moon renew the heavens of the great unity]
[The azure sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand]
[Don’t say the stone man has only one eye, stirring up the rebellion of the world at Yellow River]
[France, your emperor is back]
[The range of truth is within the range of cannon fire]
....
....
Not only the historical figures from Huaxia but also the famous figures from Europe during and before World War II have their exclusive biographies.
And there are many famous quotes in their previews as well.
These never-before-seen famous quotes on Blue Star, combined with the intense clips, are the best promotion.
However, compared to the celebration of many loyal Polestar Games players,
The major movie companies on Blue Star are enveloped in gloom.
As Yunyi Film Group, the winner of this year’s Anti-War Competition film category.
Headquarters meeting room.
Over thirty filmmakers and award-winning producers in the meeting room watched the screening version of the preview clips on the room’s projector in silence.
Only the occasional domineering voice-overs resounded from those previews.
After watching for two hours and seeing dozens of previews,
The lead producer, Dong Ming, paused the projector, rubbed his temples:
"So, what do you all think?"
After he spoke.
There was a moment of silence below, and suddenly a voice rang out:
"Everyone may as well hurry and sell your shares."
Upon hearing this.
The meeting room instantly became restless, with low discussions. Sitting at the head seat, Dong Ming frowned tightly, speaking displeased:
"Are you planning to surrender before we’ve even started?"
"We were this year’s Anti-War Competition gold medal winners."
"And not even a month later, we’re going to dissolve?"
"What kind of laughingstock would that make us?"
Hearing Dong Ming’s words, the producer sitting to the left smiled bitterly and said:
"There’s nothing we can do, boss."
"You just saw it too."
"Almost every preview video had that kind of domineering voice-over quote."
"The anticipation online has exploded."
"What’s worse."
"They are doing it in volume."
"We painstakingly crafted our film for three years and yes, won the Anti-War Competition gold medal."
"But a movie is something you watch once, twice, maybe three times, but it becomes less with time."
"But look at what Polestar is doing."
"320 films, just unbelievable?!"
"Whoever thought of this is truly something else."
"In any case, considering the current situation, cutting losses early is best."
"Polestar’s cinematic universe is enormous, and these 320 individuals are NPCs within it, with fragments of their personal experiences simply edited together."
"Then they just released it."
"320 films are just the first batch; I read online discussions mentioning there are more from World War II yet to come."
"Boss, imagine."
"320 films are just the first batch, what about the second, the third ..."
"It might even go into the thousands."
"But how long does it take us to meticulously create one film....."
Upon hearing this.
The dissatisfaction that had just risen in Dong Ming faded away.
Indeed.
Even what their subordinates could see, how could he not see it?
He just didn’t want to admit it.
Their intricately crafted film, which took three years to create and finally won first place in the Anti-War Competition, was about to be drowned by this ’big wave’ so quickly?
Moreover, a movie is inherently fixed in its storyline, unlike a game.
You can watch it once, twice, or three times, but rarely dozens of times.
But for the netizens on Blue Star.
These 320 films mean they can watch 320 different movies.
Watching a single film dozens of times versus watching 320 distinct ones, which option would the netizens choose; it’s obvious without saying.
Who would watch one movie dozens of times? Where would you find that many true fans?
Dong Ming, rubbing his temples, noted the increasingly desperate producer on his right:
"Disband the team."
"It’s not feasible anymore."
"What’s crucial is that only Polestar Company is doing this."
"You can imagine."
"How many gaming companies are there on Blue Star?"
"If they pulled the game’s storyline and characters out separately to make biographical films."
"They naturally have a great audience base."
Saying this, the producer took out his phone and placed it on the conference table:
"In just these two hours, no less than four gaming companies have approached me to compile their game NPCs’ biographies into movies." 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
"It’s undoubtedly right to try to sell off the shares."
"With Polestar’s shock, I don’t think we’ll recover over the next few years, possibly even the next decade."
"There are too many gaming companies on Blue Star."
"So many that it would take over a decade to release one film per day all around."
"Not to mention Polestar released 320 in one shot."
"If there are many more, individual or team productions stand no chance in the coming years."
Hearing this.
The people in the meeting room couldn’t help feeling desperate either.
Indeed.
There are too many people on Blue Star, and the game category is also a major project in the Anti-War Competition, leading to a plethora of gaming companies throughout the Six Major Federations.
So, saying one released NPC-based movie per company could fill up a decade is really not an exaggeration.
Possibly even more.
Since within the Great Xia Federation alone, there are thousands of gaming companies, not to mention individual creators.
When adding up the Six Major Federations...
It’s truly outrageous!
Games are games, movies are movies.
Damn Polestar Company.
How did they manage to combine games and movies like this?!
Dong Ming stayed silent for a moment, then took a deep breath:
"Hurry up!"
"Quickly sell off your shares."
"Get the money first."
"As for the rest...."
"If anyone wants to stay, we haven’t finished our war trilogy yet. If you’re not in a hurry, stay until we finish and see how it works out."
Dong Ming was at a loss too.
Since these are all facts.
It’s almost foreseeable that the next few years—possibly even the next decade—will be dominated by game-based films.
There’s no alternative.
Games inherently tie into a virtual world, making frameworks easy to implement, with a natural audience base, meaning that any niche game won’t remain niche before Blue Star’s 14 billion population.
Moreover, it’s not only the current game companies.
Over the past decades, even centuries, many well-known and popular games have emerged on Blue Star.
If these games tapped into their legacy.... that would be insane.
Damn!
Dong Ming felt tingling in his scalp just thinking about it.
What’s the point anymore?
They should all go be game producers.
While pondering, Dong Ming sold off all his shares.
Originally planning to hustle to the top with federal support this year and reach the pinnacle of life, but now.... moving a bit slower would get you stuck here.
Others in the meeting room were also selling their shares in the company.
There’s no choice.
With this trend, there won’t even be movie companies in the future, only individual and game creators.
After selling off their shares, everyone faced each other in confusion, looking at the paused projection, while Dong Ming was feeling overwhelmed and directly turned off the projector, saying:
"Alright, don’t let external matters disturb us."
"Let’s study and produce the war trilogy in the shortest time possible."
"Try to compete with Polestar?"
Hmm.... if we can manage that.
