Li Jie sent Su Mingyu to his residence, and then left after a brief chat. He was not worried about others recognizing him. Although Li Jie had a great reputation, most of the people who could recognize him were freshmen. The students who stay in school are basically senior students or current graduate students, and there are very few first-year freshmen like Su Mingyu.
Moreover, Li Jie was not the only boy who escorted girls into the dormitory. A casual glance revealed that five out of ten girls were escorted by boys. Li Jie was lost in the crowd of escorts and was inconspicuous at all.
After seeing off Su Mingyu, Li Jie came to another dormitory building. This one is specially for male students. The first to third floors are undergraduate dormitories, and the fourth floor is a floor dedicated to graduate students. The students who work with Li Jie are A graduate student said it was a collaboration, but in fact it was Li Jie who held the absolute dominant position.
Farming games are easy to develop. If Li Jie hadn't had to work part-time and meet Su Mingyu from time to time, he could have done it alone. The main reason for finding a partner was to reduce his own work.
Li Jie had been planning this since he first entered the dungeon. Although he had never learned programming before, more than half a year was enough for Li Jie to master this skill.
Of course, it would definitely be unrealistic for Li Jie to develop large-scale client games by himself, but it is more than enough to develop farm-type web games.
The game under development still continues to be called "Happy Farm". The core code is all provided by Li Jie. Graduate student Wei Lin is only responsible for completing the tasks assigned by Li Jie. He does not need to take care of other external affairs such as negotiations.
Wei Lin was very excited when he saw Li Jie: "Tiandong, I have basically completed the work you gave me, but there is one thing I don't know whether to talk about or not?"
"speak!"
"Um, that's it, can this game really make money? I tried it out yesterday and found it a bit boring."
The stand-alone version of the farm game is definitely boring, but once social attributes are added, it will be completely different. Li Jie did not tell Wei Lin all the plans. Domestic social networking sites have just emerged not long ago, and Wei Lin couldn't think of it at once. It's normal.
The reason for the rise of online games is that people can build a space for emotional sustenance and catharsis in the virtual online world. 'Happy Farm' seems simple, but in fact it satisfies people's desire to upgrade and the mentality of being greedy for petty gains. A little game that doesn't take too much time and can relieve stress.
In daily life, salespeople can always be successful as long as they master the three mental states of consumers: conformity, comparison, and vanity.
For example, Apple has firmly grasped these three consumer mentality.
The small "Happy Farm" also captures these three mentalities. The key is that the social environment in 2008 has not experienced the impact of smartphones. With the addition of social attributes, how could "Happy Farm" not be popular?
There is no doubt about this. Li Jie patted Wei Lin on the shoulder and said.
"Don't worry. With me here, there will be no problem. By the way, now that the project is completed, I will transfer the last payment to you tomorrow."
Wei Lin comes from a rural area, his family is in relatively difficult circumstances, and he is honest and honest. What he just said was actually not to ask for money. He has already made a lot of money on this project.
Li Jie's initial remuneration to him was 20,000 yuan plus 10% of subsequent income. The 20,000 yuan was paid in three installments. When the project progressed by 30, 40, and 30, it was paid in batches. In fact, it was considered the last payment. Wei Lin didn't mind if he couldn't get the money. His problem just now was mainly because he was worried about Li Jie losing money.
"Tiandong, don't get me wrong."
Li Jie pressed his hands down, indicating that Wei Lin did not need to continue talking. Of course he knew that Wei Lin was not that kind of person. If he really was that kind of person, how could Li Jie use it? The legendary *regent uncle* is good at understanding people.
"I know you don't mean that. You can take a break these two days. You'll be busy after my project is negotiated."
Li Jie plans to use the same strategy as Five Minutes Company. He will not directly negotiate with Penguin for the time being. He will first cooperate with small social networking sites such as Xiaonei, Kaixin, 4399, 51, etc., and then negotiate with Penguin after 'Happy Farm' officially launches its efforts.
This was done not to seize dominance, but to sell it at a good price. Penguin.com was already the dominant player in the social field at this time, and its position was unshakable. It was simply impossible to negotiate on an equal footing with Penguin.com.
'Happy Farm' is related to the first start-up capital for future plans. Li Jie is naturally very concerned about it. He stayed in Wei Lin's dormitory for most of the day and tried out the first version of Happy Farm. Wei Lin was very careful and had a strong sense of responsibility. , complete the task without any compromise.
The mechanism of the first version of the Happy Farm application is relatively simple, with only simple functions of growing vegetables and stealing vegetables. Li Jie did not release some subsequent upgraded content at once, mainly to prevent others from imitating it. It is too easy to imitate. If you don’t stay ahead of the curve creatively, you risk being drowned out on the internet.
"The work is great, there are no major problems. I can just go back and correct some minor problems. I will take the hard drive away first and wait for my good news later!"
Wei Lin smiled and nodded. Although the junior in front of him was younger than him, he still admired Li Jie. Whether professionally or in life, he was far behind this junior.
"OK."
Li Jie walked out of the boys' dormitory building and looked up at the sky. It was already approaching evening, and the afternoon passed unknowingly. Su Mingyu took a rare leave today because of moving to the dormitory. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and sent Su Mingyu a message. Short message.
"Mingyu, come down and eat."
Ding dong!
After about a minute, Su Mingyu's text message came back.
"?"
"I just completed a big thing, I'm happy. I bought the groceries, you paid, and I cooked."
Su Mingyu in the dormitory held her phone tightly, typing and deleting, deleting and typing on the text message editing page. After hesitating for a long time, she finally gently sent a word.
"good."
In fact, there were not many people staying at school during the winter vacation. The school arranged for four people to live in a room. At this time, only Su Mingyu was left in the dormitory. The other three people had already gone out. Su Mingyu originally planned to boil a bottle of water to soak the steamed buns she bought in the morning. Once soaked, eat it with pickles.
Li Jie waited downstairs for a while. Ding dong, the text message came. He couldn't help but smile when he saw the word 'good' on it. After a while, he heard the sound of people coming downstairs. He obviously ran all the way downstairs.
Su Mingyu walked closer and panted slightly and said, "I'm sorry for keeping you waiting."
Li Jie smiled slightly: "It's okay, let's go."
Under the dim sky, the figures of a man and a woman gradually disappeared on the campus.
