67. Overseas launch (2)
Gold Pineapple, a world-renowned game streamer, has visited Gangnam!
“Wow, he looks really handsome in person.”
“He’s tall and his features… … Wow.”
Gold Pineapple was not just a streamer, but a celebrity level position. This is because he earns more money than most stars, shoots a lot of commercials, and has a lot of fans.
He might show off, but he responds to autographs and photo shoots without showing anything like that.
“thank you.”
Even saying thank you politely in Korean.
“It was so noisy on air, it was all a concept.”
“He’s actually very decent and well-mannered.”
* * *
It was not the first time visiting a game company.
Since he is so famous as a game streamer, he had experience receiving invitations from many companies.
‘It’s a peculiar place.’
Common game companies use their own IP to decorate them in various ways. The larger the company, the greater this tendency.
‘The Mercury Games headquarters was practically at the level of a theme park.’
The scale and each of the facilities in the interior were to the point of overwhelming the theme park… …
‘But there’s nothing here.’
It felt like I was in an accountant’s office rather than a game company.
Even in the cafeteria there was no trace of the game company left.
‘Modern and simple,’
After a rough tour of the company, I finally entered the CEO’s office.
‘at las… … !’
The most awaited moment.

Meeting with Korea’s representative game developer Yu Tae-yeon!
In addition, he was also the one who made him have ‘respect’ for the first time in a long time.
‘It’s also the hope of MMORPG.’
The entrance door opened.
His eyes met the man in the suit who was sitting with his back to the sunlight.
He got up from his seat and approached with a heavy sense of intimidation and held out his hand.
His first words were:
“I am Taeyeon Yoo, a game developer.”
* * *
Golden Pineapple was surprised by several things while talking to Taeyeon.
The first is English proficiency.
“You speak English well. Have you ever studied in the US for a long time?”
“no. It’s all I’ve been to on a trip.”
“But how can you speak English like this… … .”
This is because of the efficacy of the bracelet.
If you study hard, your experience points will increase.
But I can’t tell you that.
“I just worked hard.”
“Incredible. The pronunciation is very good and the vocabulary is also… … .”
The second was a wealth of knowledge and experience about the game.
“Oh, that game. This is a game I enjoyed. You have the experience of planning a station in your free time.”
No matter which game is mentioned, information about the game and development comes out easily.
I was about to say something like this.
“I’ve met so many gamers and developers, but none as well-learned as you.”
“If you want to call yourself a gamer, you should know about the games just mentioned.”
“Yes! That’s right! ha ha ha!”
I’m starting to like this guy more and more.
The story of the game continued at lunch.
It was a fresh experience for Taeyeon as well.
It was the first time I had such a good conversation.
seven o’clock in the evening.
It was already past office hours, but the company lobby was full of people.
“what? What event is there?”
“What is all this about?”
I soon found out what was going on.
World famous streamers, Gold Pineapple and Taeyeon will start a joint broadcast soon.
“PD-nim is broadcasting… … ?”
“Do you want to do well? I have to go see it.”
This was done at the suggestion of Gold Pineapple.
“I visited the best game company in Korea after a long time, but I want to broadcast in a unique place rather than the same studio.”
and added
“I thought it would be fun to invite company employees to be in the audience!”
The building was not very large, and above all, it was rented, so there was no convention center like the head office.
So he came down to the lobby.
Anyone who wants to see it, feel free to come and see it.
Suddenly, the lobby was filled with people.
Even security personnel working at the headquarters were mobilized to control the scene.
After a while, cheers erupted when Taeyeon and Gold Pineapple appeared in the lobby studio.
“you are handsome!”
“They are both great!”
Two PCs were set up and a total of four monitors were installed.
The largest monitor was for the audience, two for Taeyeon and Gold Pineapple, and one for broadcasting.
“I thought you were going to play a game?”
“What game is it? Of course it must be Elcross Re, right?”
“Raid, it looks like PVP… … .”
“Hmmm! Please don’t be too surprised when we start broadcasting in a while.”
“… … ?”
Taeyeon, who initially wondered what she was talking about, nodded.
‘Didn’t I say that the broadcast and the actual appearance are different?’
But, to me, there wasn’t much of a difference.
Close your mouth and wait for the cue sign.
After a while.
“yes! hello! Now, where is this place? First off, it’s not a house. Not even my personal studio! Where is this? If you are a listener of my broadcast, of course you know, right? If you match, we will give you a prize! It’s real!”
broadcasting has begun.
Oh oh!
Exclamation erupts from all directions.
The gap between reality and broadcasting was really great.
Even Taeyeon, who thought there would be no big difference, was surprised.
‘The switch is up.’
As soon as the broadcast started, a naive person became a character… … No, the personality itself has changed.
The voice that roars through the lobby is so loud that you don’t need a microphone. The diction was so good that even a distant audience could fully understand the sound. The way he raps without stopping and without spilling words is simply amazing.
‘This is the broadcast of a world-class game streamer… … .’
Taeyeon was thrilled.
“Where is this place? South Korea’s best game company Nepple! yes. These days, I’m at the same developer that made Elcross Re, which I’m crazy about. There are a lot of developers in front of me! Scream!”
As soon as the camera hits the audience, a loud cheer erupts. Wave your hands, stand up, and run around… … Not everyone was upset.
“Oh, look how passionate they are!”
Taeyeon checked the number of real-time viewers displayed at the top.
[976,345]
‘Is that for real?’
Units changed after a while.
[1,034, 345]
The number of viewers quickly surpassed one million.
It’s real time.
That means more than a million people around the world are now watching this live stream.
‘This is the top streamer… … !’
“Now, I have an amazing guest next to me. Let me introduce you first! 15th in market capitalization in Korea! He is the CEO of Nexple, which is proudly ranked among the conglomerates, as well as Elcross Re, Disney Fantastic World, Atlansia, Pantheon, Pandemonium, etc. A star developer who has produced countless games!”
“Whoa!”
The shouts grow louder each time a splendid history is listed in his mouth. The chat window response is also very loud. It was such an enormous regeneration rate that the letters could not be seen.
“Introducing producer Taeyeon Yoo!”
Finally, Taeyeon’s image was captured on the screen.
I wanted my heart to beat as if it would burst.
‘Let’s stay calm. Calmly… … .’
– Ugh!
From nob le mt l dot com
My wrist tickled, and the tension was relieved in an instant.
Taeyeon opened her mouth without a moment to question.
“hello. I am Taeyeon Yoo, a game developer.”
An English talk show that started like that!
“The history of game development is brilliant, but… … .”
“How did you start developing games?”
“Is the Elcross we are enjoying right now a remake version? The development process was very famous among maniacs… … .”
Taeyeon was surprised once again.
‘Your progress is amazing.’
Usually, interviewers pick and choose only the things people are curious about.
Gold Pineapple was on a different level.
Draw out the story of the target first.
The part that seems boring is surprisingly simply abbreviated or skipped, but the talent for instinctively catching this was surprisingly great.
‘This person must have succeeded no matter what he did.’
Even if the broadcasting station carried out a talk show with a proper name, it would have gained tremendous popularity.
I actually conveyed my impressions.
“ha ha ha! is that so? In fact, I often hear such stories. I even got a real offer. Was it NBC?”
“Really?”
“But I just refused. Because if I accepted that offer, I didn’t think I would be able to talk about the game much.”
“I felt it during our conversation, but you really love the game.”
“Oh, right. everyone. This guy is so amazing… … I know a lot about the game. Even more than me!”
As a gamer, I naturally switch the subject.
At the right time, the endowment of the story was cut off and the full-fledged game talk was moved on.
“Okay, part 1 ends here, and from part 2 we will start streaming games in earnest. Stay tuned. We’re going to enjoy PVP and raids with the developer and unveil new update content for the first time! yes. You can look forward to it. What a fantastic time awaits!”
Part 1 is over!
“Ohhh!”
An hour passed, but instead of decreasing, the number of people increased. A large number of people had gathered outside the lobby.
When the gold pineapple stood up and waved, a scream-like roar erupted.
‘There are a lot of his fans in Korea.’
The brand power is amazing beyond imagination.
‘I don’t think I’ve ever seen a streamer this popular.’
Fan service time.
“I’ll sign it! If you have a seat, I will come to you, so please keep order!”
Taeyeon felt a lot about his passionate appearance.
‘We must make him the face of our game.’
* * *
Part 2 started.
The number of viewers decreased slightly to 824,450.
“Now, let’s start with the raid!”
However, soon after the game started broadcasting, it quickly recovered.
‘Your game skills are amazing.’
From Taeyeon’s point of view, there were many secrets to his popularity.
The narration that makes the broadcast itself attractive, outstanding hosting skills, tremendous tension, and so on.
But as it turned out, it was all just incidental factors.
“Parring! parrying! Counterattack after dodging!”
[Keuuuong!]
“yes!”
Your gaming skills are great!
He was playing with the highest difficulty raid monsters by himself.
‘I can’t lose either.’
Aren’t you a developer?
Taeyeon also actively participates in the raid and shows off her skills.
After finishing the raid, go straight into PVP.
“I will check the developer’s skills.”
The 1:1 duel that started with a sinister smile was an overwhelming victory for Gold Pineapple.
“… … .”
Taeyeon was stunned.
I never thought of not being able to play… … .
“PD-nim applied it mercilessly… … No, I lost!”
“No, PD-nim’s skills are never inferior… … .”
The Elcross Re development team, well aware of Taeyeon’s skills, was taken aback. It was because he was miserably fooled from the beginning to the end and then lost.
I tried two more rounds after that, but the result was the same.
“I will accept the challenge!”
I will restore the honor of the developer who fell to the ground!
The studio’s best players, even combat developers, have challenged… … .
“Big. Unbelievable… … .”
“Nonsense!”
“I can’t believe that such control can exist… … .”
all defeated!
– Developers are good at making games, but their skills are poor… … .
– I can’t. Oh, I’m bored… … .
The chat window explodes.
“No? There’s nothing special about Korean gamer skills. Mhahahahaha!”
Some of the users who came to fan the continued provocation came out in indignation.
But the result… … .
“Ha ha ha! At this rate, I will conquer Korea and go.”
“Keugh… … !”
all defeated!
Everyone who watched erupted in exasperation.
Even though Taeyeon was crying… … .
‘Maybe he has an intention?’
It’s been a while since I noticed something strange… … .
‘aha.’
Soon Taeyeon knew his intentions.
“I will make a suggestion. Beat the gold pineapple. Why don’t you try a PVP event with the theme of ‘?’
“Ohhh!”
cheers bursting out.
“We will put a prize money on it and make sure that any user can participate. The last winner gets a chance to fight the gold pineapple three times.”
Taeyeon asked.
“Challenge, will you accept it?”
Gold Pineapple grinned.
