mobile game. The couple Choi Jong-hak and Seong Tae-hee joined the development team of Raising Spirituals.

“You mean you were making this and you didn’t tell me anything?”

Choi Jong-hak, who confirmed the reality of the game, was greatly surprised.

“Do you look okay?”

“It’s not okay, this… … .”

Choi Jong-hak looked at the game screen and swallowed his saliva.

“Is it great?”

“What, for example… … ?”

“Communicate with and collect cute and diverse spirits. Once this is done, the content will not be interrupted. Collecting and interacting are really huge categories. It is also a subject that has created many success formulas that have been considered the royal road. It’s like the money code of music, for example.”

“hmm.”

Everyone in the development team, including Taeyeon, listened to Choi Jong-hak’s words.

As for mobile, the best authority among them was Choi Jong-hak.

“Of course, there are also regrets. For example, likeability. This is an important system that will play a pivotal role in the sympathy category in my opinion, but the form is too small. We need to grow this as abundantly as possible.”

“The reason is?”

“That way, I can infuse ‘life force’ into the character called the Spirit. For example, in a dating simulation, you have to make it look like the existence of a character of the opposite s*x that you must target.”

“Then the form would be too big… … .”

“What are you worried about? You can use outsourcing.”

“hmm… … .”

“And I’m not saying you have to do it right away. It’s important to let users know that the worldview will expand in this way in the future. That’s the guy called anticipation. It gives you a reason to play this game. I will collect the spirits I want. It’s not this, I’m going to win that spirit’s heart! We have to go in this direction.”

Listening to the story that followed, people were amazed.

Including Taeyeon.

‘It’s mobile-only, so it’s beyond my capabilities.’

Among the many game developers he taught or worked with, Jong-Hak Choi was by far the most special.

He was the most like-minded development colleague, and he devoted everything to himself… … He was truly a master craftsman who scraped away everything.

The jackpot of 600 billion won in sales was not a record that could be achieved simply because of luck.

“You have to go with the feel of a dating simulation with the spirits. You have to put a lot of effort into that part to get the heart of this spirit and make a contract, and the pleasure will increase.”

“indeed… … .”

“I heard and saw it.”

Even Kim Yuna nodded eagerly in admiration.

Taeyeon said.

“good. Starting today, you are the planning team leader.”

“huh?”

“Just like I said, put some flesh on it and make it look good. And make that building process understandable to everyone here. So that you can clearly see the picture you have drawn in your head.”

And look around.

“Let’s work in English from now on. Isn’t Yoona okay too?”

“huh! I am good at English!”

Not just good at it, but at the local level.

Whether it’s training or competitions since I was young, it’s thanks to living abroad for all sorts of reasons.

“Should I do the plan and presentation in English?”

Choi Jong-hak and Seong Tae-hee, who realized Taeyeon’s intentions, exclaimed inwardly.

Word of Mars Games in the US was spreading fast.

-Mercury Games game service Why do you think there is such a difference? I really like how Elcross works and the operation is stable, but the other games are still a mess.

└ It’s because the company is different. Elcross is in charge of Mars Games.

└ What else are you doing there?

└ A joint venture between a Korean company called Nepple and Mercury Games. I heard that in the future, games made by director Yoo Tae-yeon will be serviced separately through that site.

└Oh… … But where are those things? A link to the article… … .

└ There is a homepage, check it out.

Mercury Games was notorious for its atrocious game management and unfriendly service that did not match its scale.

North American fans of Elcross were initially appalled at the idea that Mercury Games would run the game. But when it came to service, it was so different from what I knew.

However, another company is in charge of the operation.

From nob le mt l dot com

Mars Games.

It is a joint venture between Nexple and Mercury Games, and was founded by Yu Tae-yeon, CEO of Nexle and producer of Elcross.

A symbol of strong alliance between the two companies!

As word spread that the management skills were excellent and the company culture was very good, requests for visits or consulting poured in from all over the world.

There are many game companies in the world who want to provide good service but cannot do so because they do not have the technology and know-how.

‘Mars Games will grow beyond expectations.’

No matter how good the service was at Nexle in Korea, rumors spread to other countries and proposals such as consulting requests were not poured out.

because it’s America It’s a company affiliated with Mercury Games. Because it is servicing Elcross, which is very successful in the US mainland.

‘This is why everyone was so anxious to enter the US and succeed.’

I already knew it in my head.

Experiencing it directly was different.

‘It would be good to focus on expanding the business by creating a consulting part dedicated to game operation.’

It would be nice to organize and complete the operating curriculum accumulated through know-how, and create an academy to educate them. And in the end, if you do that, it will expand to an academy that is responsible for not only operation but also the entire game development education.

‘There is a limit to just spreading know-how.’

It is necessary to create a systematic talent development system and be beaten deeply into the body.

‘Mars Games could be the best game academy in the world.’

It’s impossible with your own power, but Nexple and Mercury.

‘And if my colleagues are together, it’s possible.’

In the end, the most important thing is manpower, and the colleagues Taeyeon picks and keeps by her side are all the best.

‘If you have the status window ability, you can pick the best people.’

How good teachers can develop good students.

Students cannot be screened, but teachers can only be thoroughly verified. The status window will save you a lot of time and effort.

“… … .”

Taeyeon, thinking about this and that, smiled.

‘That would be so much fun.’

When the water comes in, you have to row as best you can.

In response to the unprecedented box office success of Elcross Re, Nexple put all their energy into marketing.

The same goes for overseas publishers.

From nob le mt l dot com

Mercury Games, which had already launched in North America, was in the middle of promoting Elcross Re by pouring a huge amount of money.

-Enter the new world!

– The best stylish action MMORPG to enjoy in another world!

It even appeared in terrestrial TV commercials.

But this wasn’t the end.

-I’m going to buy Times Square billboards and Super Bowl ads.

The vice president of Mercury Games made a great statement.

‘You’d need tens of billions of Korean money just for Super Bowl ads… … .’

do you do this?

I asked because I couldn’t understand.

“Isn’t that too much?”

-you’re welcome. Not at all. Mercury Games’ revenues are amazing right now, but the important thing is that this is just the beginning.

He was very agitated.

-We plan to inform the world through advertisements in Times Square and Super Bowl. The best MMORPG game is right here!

“… … .”

– This was not something I committed impulsively on my own, but it was decided after extensive discussions with internal think tanks.

“ah… … .”

-Elcross Re will be much bigger than it is now.

Hearing the determination to make it a national game in North America, Taeyeon thought.

‘American people are definitely different from Bepo.’

From nob le mt l dot com

Maybe that’s right and I’m not overly realistic… … Taeyeon sighed at that thought.

Choi Jong-hak was also rowing the oars.

“You know that the Pandaemonium Warriors test is going on next month, right? There was a trial operation in the past, but forget that memory and start with a new mindset. As well as the content, the graphics are completely different.”

Pandemonium’s new director, Choi Jong-hak, was speeding up the development work.

I gathered the main personnel inside and said.

“You know how good the company atmosphere is right now? We shouldn’t be too hasty, but we need to speed up our development to get on the bandwagon.”

Everyone nods their heads in agreement.

Seolah Han AD said.

“The timing is very important. Any well-made game can be completely ruined if the timing is wrong.”

“That’s it. Right now, the luck is flowing in our favor. To be precise, Taeyeon hyung… … Instead, the CEO made it that way.”

I’m not just talking about the box office success of Elcross Re.

Atlansia Revolutionary Project!

Before that, Amazing Racing and so on.

Starting from the work of restoring games that had been wandering on the wrong path, it was gaining deep trust and recognition from users.

No one knows how long this situation will continue, so a new work must be released quickly at a good time.

“When the commercial video comes out next week, we plan to start marketing in earnest after an internal demonstration. Each team member prepares a presentation in advance.”

Choi Jong-hak told a surprising story.

“It looks like the Pandaemonium presentation is going to be pretty big.”

* * *

The head of the Nexple marketing team suggested it during the meeting.

“CEO. If your intention was to benchmark Apple, do it right. Why don’t we set up a place and invite people to hold a presentation?”

It wasn’t just about Pandemonium.

Currently, there are quite a few games on Nexple that are waiting for a release date or a major update.

“Just as Apple announces new products every year, we also hold presentations to reveal games, experience them, and prepare a space where we can buy goods.”

His eyes and voice were full of confidence.

“Now we can do that.”

“… … !”

People sitting around the conference room shuddered silently.

Among them, Chairman Yoo Jin-seong and the two directors revealed their turbulence without being able to hide it.

“You can use this as an opportunity to leap forward. No, you have to!”

Eyes full of excitement fell on Taeyeon.

After thinking about it, Taeyeon spoke calmly.

“Let’s go ahead.”

An official notice was delivered to the producers of Nexle who were preparing for the launch of a new game or a large-scale update.

-Prepare for the Nepple presentation.

A detailed plan was attached.

The producers clenched their fists tightly.

‘The opportunity has come.’

PDs who are so incompetent that they cannot read the flow do not currently exist at Neckple. It was because they had already been cut off or reported to the police for doing the wrong thing.

At the end, the representative’s seal was stamped.

The man who changed Nexple from the root.

-CEO. Taeyeon Yoo

It doesn’t mean that you’re thinking about it, it means that you’ve decided to act.

It was the moment when the neckple watch started to run fast.
