Everyone sucked in a breath as some stood still, while others were clutching their thumping chests, and some were so excited that their hands were trembling. They didn’t know how to express themselves at this point anymore. At this moment, they felt that even if they screamed or cheered, nothing would come out, because these statistics were so unbelievable that this group of people couldn’t regain their senses to cheer due to the shock!

The Deputy CEO shivered and said, “Fat Sis.”

Another deputy CEO was sweating profusely from his forehead as he sought for instructions. “Should we publicly announce these statistics? Announce it now?”

Fat Sis had at least twice the mental fortitude they had, yet at this moment, her forehead was also sweating profusely. She wiped away her sweat and said, “Don’t announce it yet. No one will believe it even if we announce it now. Let’s just keep a low profile for now and finish all the promotions and work scheduled for today. We can announce the overall statistics after 24 hours instead!”

“OK!”
“OK!”
“I-I understand!”
“I-I understand!”
Fat Sis suddenly remembered. “Oh yes, inform Teacher Little Zhang about this. He’s the biggest contributor and has a share in this game, so there’s no need to hide it from him.”

“Yes, ma’am!”
“Yes, ma’am!”
Fat Sis gave a wave of her hand. “Hurry up and get back to work!”
Fat Sis gave a wave of her hand. “Hurry up and get back to work!”
Her voice trembled slightly and sounded a bit weak—this was clearly because her heart was beating too fast which caused her blood flow to increase too quickly which resulted in this adverse effect.

At Zhang Ye’s parents’ house.
Zhang Ye immediately received a call from Fat Sis’s company and was informed about the number of downloads for Plants vs. Zombies in the past four hours. After hearing this figure, Zhang Ye took a deep breath as he knew that it was a foregone conclusion from here. No one could stop the rise of Plants vs. Zombies anymore! However, he did not gasp in shock like the group of people at Fat Sis’s company. First, Zhang Ye had experienced more things in the past, none of which were less impactful than this event. As a result, his mental fortitude was naturally quite good. Second, Zhang Ye was likely the only person in this world who knew about the background of Plants vs. Zombies. Back in his previous world, be it however much money this game had earned or the amount of downloads, he knew it all quite well!

“I’m numb. Who were the ones who trash-talked this game two days ago? That person kept saying how this game was garbage, but when I downloaded the game to try it out, I ended up getting hooked after playing! Previously, playing such puzzle games were just for leisure and to relax ourselves. But Plants vs. Zombies is no longer simply for relaxation. You’ll get addicted to it! It’s comparable to playing a real-time strategy game! How satisfying!”

Many of the netizens downloaded the game and had an enjoyable time playing it.

However, they did not know exactly how many and could only wait for the statistics to be released, which would be the most reliable information.

A staff member at a game download website suddenly updated with a post on Weibo: “Everyone should prepare themselves mentally for the number of downloads for Plants vs. Zombies, as it has probably exceeded everyone’s expectations. I don’t have the overall statistics for the number of downloads of this title with me, but using the number of downloads and traffic flow to our website, we can make a rather accurate estimate. Don’t blame me for not warning everyone, so everyone better be mentally prepared for it!”

“Why must we be mentally prepared? Could it be that Plants vs Zombies might exceed 200,000 downloads on launch day? Aren’t you thinking too much? The downloads for Fishing Master 2 on the first day were only about 90,000, but Plants vs Zombies might be double that? It can’t be that much, right? I know that Plants vs Zombies is very fun, but Fishing Master 2 is a classic sequel from the Americans and is also inheriting the success of Fishing Master 1. It’s not just some pushover!”

However, those people who had the information stayed silent at this moment and did not say a word. A reporter at a video game magazine called up a website operator to make an inquiry, but the reply they got was to be mentally prepared, without getting any exact figures!

This was obviously not an amount of downloads that a small-scale puzzle game should have received. Let alone puzzle games, even those famous RPG, action, and FPS games—their first day sales couldn’t achieve such a volume either! Much less a casual puzzle game for niche audiences!

Wasn’t Fishing Master 2 a great game? It was the most popular puzzle game nowadays, and the number of downloads for it on release in the domestic market was only about 100,000! Moreover, the game could only set that kind of heaven-defying record because it had accumulated a high amount of popularity from the prequel! But Plants vs. Zombies? It was a brand new game made by a video game company that no one had heard of before, and it was even a domestically made game? The number of downloads on release day had even surpassed Fishing Master 2’s downloads by a factor of ten??

In recent days, the reputation of Plants vs. Zombies was very well-known and widespread; the feedback after trying out the game was also great. A lot of people commended endlessly about it and the industry’s appraisal of it was very high. But even so, after these results were published, the people were still stunned, and nearly even fainted from shock one after another!

But Plants vs. Zombies was between three and four times more downloaded than this long-standing, number one puzzle game in history!
