Game development begins with destroying Girls' Frontline.

Lin Li was unaware.

However, some manufacturers in the past did try this approach. For example, Manjuu Network, which developed Azur Lane, created Blue Star Plains: Travel Ballad, which was a fusion of these elements.

But for Galaxy Paradise...

Should we adopt this model?

Lin Li was still a little unsure.

Because having more of a developmental system isn't necessarily better.

"What do you mean?"

"Actually, based on the game's premise, we could add things like items that allow players to control monsters, and then players could throw these items to form a master-servant relationship..."

"Pokémon?"

"Hmm, somewhat similar, but not exactly the same..."

The two chatted for a long time, exchanging a few words here and there.

Although we talked for a long time, we didn't actually say anything meaningful in the end.

It was basically that kind of divergent thinking that completely disregarded reality, but as they talked, Su Shanshan's embarrassment had indeed completely dissipated.

"That's enough, it's time to rest."

Lin Li glanced at his watch.

"!!!? What are you going to do?"

"...What are you thinking? That's not what I meant."

~~~

The next day.

When Su Shanshan received Lin Li's call, it was already 10 o'clock.

As she groggily answered, a puzzled voice came from the other end of the phone: "Still not up?"

Su Shanshan woke up instantly.

"Ah!! I forgot to set my alarm!!"

"No... I'm sorry, I... I'll be at the company right away."

Su Shanshan turned over and was about to get up.

Suddenly, someone on the other end of the phone chuckled.

"Coming to the company? You're off today? What brings you to the company...?"

"Uh... okay, it seems so. So why did you call me?"

Su Shanshan felt a little embarrassed.

"I'm asking what you want for lunch, I'm buying groceries..."

"oh.."

That noon, when the two had lunch together, the atmosphere was much better than the previous night.

However, after eating for a while, Su Shanshan quietly took out her phone.

"Huh? Wow, our game has launched in the US?"

Su Shanshan had just picked up her phone when she came across a news article.

This news comes from homeless people.

The content is titled "USA! Three Chinese-made games dominate the charts."

The news content was very simple.

Just one screenshot.

The screenshot shows the download rankings on the US Apple Store.

First Place: Galaxy Park Exploration

Second place: Battlefront Girls

Third place: FGO

"That's incredible! How did they do that?"

Su Shanshan subconsciously sighed, although Xinghuo Games is actually quite popular in China, and has also achieved the feat of ranking first on three charts in Japan's FGO.

However, I always felt something was missing.

Japan is still largely part of the broader Chinese cultural sphere, and FGO is a national IP in Japan, so it doesn't have that strong an impact on people.

And this time in the United States, it managed to reach the number one spot on the leaderboard.

It's still on the download charts, which is quite surprising.

"Last week, Galaxy Park in the US had a feature where downloading games earned you 'revival coins'..."

Because of the immense popularity of Galaxy Park exploration.

After a period of preparation, Spark Games successfully launched its North American server.

By the way.

Spark Games America is currently an acquired American game operation company.

The company's last product was a PC game from 10 years ago.

Because they couldn't find any new games, they were constantly struggling to make ends meet.

In order to quickly enter the US market, Lin Li directly acquired the company.

In any case, according to the plan, Spark America will not undertake any development work, but will only be responsible for operating the game.

Having one team is enough.

However, although the purpose was only to launch the game, Lin Licai discovered after the acquisition that the American operating company was actually quite shrewd.

Originally, the release dates for FGO and Battlefront Girls in the US weren't that close. It was only after Spark America's operations team discovered that Galaxy Park was a huge hit in the US that things really happened.

They proactively contacted headquarters and came up with this collaborative strategy.

The results were indeed excellent.

It seems that Lin Li's decision to allocate 15% of Spark America's operating profits to senior executives for collective ownership has been effective.

At least for now, Spark America appears to have considerable initiative in its operations.

There's no need for Lin Li to urge anything; just look at the revenue of Xinghuo Games' Chinese and Japanese servers.

This group of people couldn't wait to complete a series of actions such as recruitment, operation, and publicity.

Absolutely bursting with energy.

Moreover, they didn't just use the collaboration with Galaxy Park; they also did a lot of promotional activities, including the new user acquisition rewards that Lin Li used to love.

They also sought out YouTube bloggers who raved about Stargazer, and incidentally, they promoted Battlefront Girls and FGO on America's largest anime forum.

Finally, the top spot on all three lists that lasted for about half a day emerged.

Mid-January 2017.

The world of anime and manga games seems to have calmed down.

While the popularity of exploring Galaxy Park remains, it's not as frenzied as it once was.

Employees of major manufacturers have also begun the countdown to the Chinese New Year.

Around this time of year, regardless of your industry, you'll inevitably talk about plans for the Lunar New Year at work.

By the 19th.

A rumor suddenly circulated within Spark Games.

The boss is saying he's going to treat everyone to a trip to the Maldives before the New Year! And then he'll reimburse everyone's plane tickets back home, so we can go straight home for the New Year after the trip.

Let's ignore the holiday notice for now.

Maldives!!

Go to the Maldives?

At first, almost all the employees didn't believe it.

But when the company's HR lady actually started asking each person about their travel plans and whether they were bringing relatives...

The entire Spark Games game was in chaos.

Good guy, really good guy.

This team-building style really reflects Mr. Lin's style.

We may only have a few team-building activities throughout the year, but every single one is incredibly inspiring.

It's worth noting that the Maldives was already incredibly popular back in 17.

Even if you team up, the cost isn't low.

Moreover, as registration began, everyone at Spark Games learned that not only people from Shanghai were going, but people from Japan were also coming.

That adds up to nearly a thousand people...

According to the preparations made by the team building team.

To accommodate so many people, the company booked the entire island to ensure everyone had a great time.

"How much money will this company need?!"

“It’s unimaginable!”

Within Spark Games, employees were abuzz with discussion, shocked by the scale and extravagance of the team-building event.

After all, renting an entire island and allowing nearly a thousand people to enjoy the beauty and relaxation of the Maldives is a feat that not every company can accomplish.

However, considering that it was General Manager Lin who did this, it seems quite normal.

While the employees were even more excited than during the Chinese New Year, Lin Li was still discussing serious business with Yao Meng.

"Yes, yes, have you been invited?"

"Very good, very good, you did well."

"Not only them, but also other partners were invited."

This trip to the Maldives was actually also a kind of annual meeting for Spark Games.

In addition to his own employees, Lin Li also invited many partners.

For example, those working with the FATE IP, owners of outsourcing companies in Shanghai, and independent producers like ZUN.

Hang up the phone.

Lin Li was in a good mood, but Su Shanshan next to him tugged at his arm, making him look at her screen.

Turn your head.

On Su Shanshan's screen was a website for homeless people.

Just as she was wondering why this was being shown, Su Shanshan tapped the screen.

Then Lin Li saw several news articles that made him frown.

The idea for Girls 6 actually came from this game?
