Qiu Bosong sat opposite Yang Dongxu in the Xuri Technology Office. At this time, Qiu Bosong was holding a project in his hand and looking at it carefully. His face was happy, and he looked thoughtful.
After more than ten minutes, when the other party finished reading the project, Yang Dongxu asked: "Is it difficult?"
"Basically it's not difficult, and it's very suitable for supplementing the components of 361 browser, but the threshold for this thing..." Qiu Bosong was a little worried.
What he was holding in his hand was the project for the 'Tieba'. There was really no core secret to the entire Tieba. Just create a web page where we can discuss with each other.
Moreover, it is not the kind of chat software where you post or comment here, and the mutual chat is immediately displayed on the other side. It is not too simple to accept some delays and so on.
It is precisely because simplicity, a very good idea, is like a layer of window paper, not only 361 can do it now. After they launch it, Baidu can do it, portals can do it, and even NetEase, which has withdrawn from the portal website and makes email, can do it.
In short, this is a good idea, but what 361 has come up with and launched will definitely not belong to 361 alone, and other imitators will definitely follow immediately.
"The threshold is indeed a problem, but no one paid attention to this thing at the beginning, so we quit the promotion first, and it got off to a good start. Let's discuss the game first.
For example, you can organize some players, or even internal personnel of the company to register a few accounts to post specifically about game technology. Not only our company's own games, but other games can also be discussed.
In this way, we first bundle the online users of the game. Game players from our own company can log in directly with authorization, while other players need to register a dedicated Tieba account.
If the discussion about the game becomes popular, we can lead the discussion on some uncelebrated topics. Then it will not be a big problem to ask Heiner for help. Then 361 can properly launch web games, so that there will be channels to recover costs, instead of just throwing money away like now. "
"Web game?" Qiu Bosong was stunned for a moment.
If the browser wants to make money, it can only take the traffic route, such as diverting traffic to some large portals, and then creating some news push ads that feel similar to the current chat software. The user base is very large, but there is no A way to make money, so he is very concerned about the profitability of Yang Dongxushu's web game.
"For example, for some strategy games, the background of the game can be the historical background of some chaotic times. The player only has a small house at the beginning, and then the house can be gradually upgraded to a city, and then there are farmlands, training grounds, smelting plants and so on.
To be precise, it is a development game. A small village is upgraded to a main city, and various buildings in the main city also need to be continuously upgraded. Upgrading requires wood and stone for buildings, and food is needed for training soldiers and increasing the population.
Then some historical celebrities can be made into generals. Various generals can be recruited according to the corresponding buildings in the main city. Then the generals can use the training to attack the surrounding bandit camps, or other people's main cities, etc. In short, it is a strategic hegemony game. "Yang Dongxu explained briefly.
"How to make a profit? Selling famous generals?" Qiu Bosong asked.
"It can also be like this, but there must be some restrictions. You can't spend money to become invincible. You can attack other players' main cities at will. Players who spend money can become powerful.
But the only reason he wanted to become powerful was because he had a sense of vanity by attacking other people's cities and winning. But if he gets too powerful and drives away other players who didn't spend any money, and no one gives him this sense of accomplishment, players won't spend more money to become more powerful.
Therefore, some measures must be grasped. For example, some famous generals can be recruited three times a day by ordinary players, and five or ten times by players who spend money.
But you can't give him ten times and you will definitely recruit powerful generals. In short, if you spend money, you will not necessarily be awesome, but you may be awesome.
Of course, if there is a player who insists on recruiting a hundred or even a thousand times a day and won't give up until he recruits a powerful general, then if a player of this level is lucky, he will be awesome.
In addition to generals, there are also some building props that shorten time, such as when the level of the main city and other buildings are getting higher and higher.
The upgrade is not the previous few minutes or ten minutes, but an hour, or five or six hours. If players want to shorten the time, they can spend money to buy some props in the prop mall.
For another example, soldiers in the training room need population and food. Food, wood, various ores for making weapons, and stones needed to build a city can all be purchased in the mall. "Yang Dongxu talked about the model of hegemony games in his impression.
"Isn't this a bit disruptive to the balance of the game? For example, ordinary players are still farming to obtain food and grass. When cutting down trees and mining to obtain building materials, players who spend money can upgrade infinitely and recruit generals to easily widen the gap. Let other players have no time to play.”
Qiu Bosong thinks this game is a bit interesting, and he has been playing games before, so he has strong creative thinking. Yang Dongxu just described it, and he could already build a rough basic model of the game in his mind.
“So there must be a threshold for spending money. Each player has a limit on what items can be purchased on the field that can affect the balance of the game.
For example, props that shorten construction time are divided into three levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Beginner is shortened by three minutes, intermediate is shortened by half an hour, and advanced is shortened by one hour.
Each of these three tokens can only be used three times a day. The buildings in the city can be divided into main cities, smelters, residential buildings, barracks, recruitment taverns, etc.
In short, using these tokens on one building can upgrade it to a very high level in a short time, but if you want to upgrade all buildings, you need to purchase more upgrade tokens.
And if a building uses three kinds of tokens three times to reach the limit, and if you still want to use them, you need to pay other prices. For example, if you come up with a trick, it is also divided into three levels. The basic level can increase the upgrade time shortening token by +2, the intermediate level by +5, and the advanced level by +10.
Prices that double tend to rise. In short, spending money can make you awesome, but it may not necessarily become the ultimate thing all at once. There has to be a gradual process of seeking.
Ordinary players can also obtain these tokens and tips when completing tasks, but there are not as many as players who spend money, but in any case, they can be given to bring some distance between them.
Finally, I got a battle-free card, and a player with money insisted on attacking a low-level city that didn't cost money. In low-level cities, I can definitely put up a battle-free card to avoid fighting..."
The more Yang Dongxu talked, the more excited he became. Qiu Bosong looked at him more and more strangely. Sometimes he wanted to open his boss's mind to see what was going on inside, and why it was so difficult for others to understand things. An idea popped into his head.
And this idea is not the kind of thing that he talks about casually, but he can fill it in completely after a little thought, and it can be used directly after taking it out. There is no need to go back to the game designers and programmers to discuss how to do it. Just do what he says, it's not too easy.
After discussing this web page strategy with Qiu Bosong, Yang Dongxu continued to have a meeting with Chang Hao. The legendary insider commercial crime case continues to ferment as the trial progresses.
After all, in this era when companies generally earn RMB 1,000 or 2,000 per month, the amount of economic crimes within a game has reached more than 50 million, and it is difficult not to cause a sensation.
Especially in this era when all parents are afraid of online games, they are confused that some people spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy virtual things in games that are intangible and inedible.
Therefore, this case not only involves the foreign employees themselves, but the gaming industry and the amount involved are enough to attract attention. Coupled with the fact that some game companies are adding fuel to the fire, this game has the potential to spark a nationwide discussion.
Now when chatting within each game, at least five out of ten are discussing the matter of Legend, and they are not playing Legend. When CC and MM are chatting, the case of Legend is even more popular. Some say that the people involved in the case are at least Starting ten years ago, some people said that he would be sentenced to death immediately after all the amount of money involved in the case was so large.
In short, this topic was discussed at a high level, and at this time, Yang Dongxu naturally directly informed Qiu Bosong to quickly take advantage of the heat to get the post bar out. Since it is a destined fact that the legend is injured, he has to make up for it in other aspects. Just come back.
And in addition to letting Tieba quickly come up with it to gain popularity, Legend himself can also gain popularity. You said before that a paralysis ring is worth several hundred, a good one is even thousands or tens of thousands, and a dragon-slaying knife costs at least a thousand.
Players who play Legend know this market and feel that you are awesome. When they see the rich, they shout 666. But people who don’t play Legend don’t know. If you tell them that a piece of equipment is so expensive, they may think that you are bragging or even out of your mind.
But things are different now. The cases have all been handed over to the courts. Because of the huge amount of money involved, although everyone does not understand that the equipment in the legend that cannot be touched or eaten is so valuable, this does not prevent them from already knowing it. things are valuable.
At this time, you are looking for someone who is paying attention to this case. As soon as you tell someone that you have a dragon-slaying knife, the other person will immediately think that you are very good. You can play a game and use a weapon worth more than a thousand. You must be rich. In this way, you will lose face instantly. Yes.
Even if the person who likes you is jealous and curses in his heart: You idiot, since this thing is so valuable, you don’t want to sell it for money, and you are still showing it off here. The game is not worth a dime if it goes bankrupt, it depends on how you complain...
Therefore, many things have two sides. This incident seems to have dragged the legend into the abyss. However, it is also a publicity that attracts the attention of the whole people. It is a disaster and an opportunity, and Yang Dongxu can undoubtedly seize this opportunity.
So after a few days, people from other game companies suddenly became restless.
