In the Rising Sun Technology conference room, Yang Dongxu sat at the main seat. Qiu Bosong from 361, Chang Hao, who is currently in charge of the two game departments of "Legend" and "Swordsman Love", and Xu Youzhen, the head of the newly established "Fantasy Westward Journey" game department, were also present.
At present, Changhao's prestige in Xuri Technology can be said to be unparalleled, even catching up with his former mentor Qiu Bosong. There is no way to make money and achieve status. This is a common law within private companies.
Although Chang Hao was not in charge of "Legend" before, he was a bit like picking peaches. But the popularity of "Swordsman Love" is an indisputable fact.
And currently, "Swordsman Love" has somewhat overtaken "Legend" to become the most profitable game department of Xuri Technology. Coupled with the relationship between Chang Hao and Qiu Bosong, as well as the current backbone of Xuri Technology's technical staff, more than half of them were packaged from Xishanju. Digged.
Chang Hao, the head of the game department, definitely has great power. Compared with Changhao, Qiu Bosong is obviously a little indifferent. One is because the other person is his apprentice. Although he has taken off now, he has always respected him.
In addition to the browser, the game department is relatively independent. Even though 361 is now making web games, the core of the theme is the browser, and the plan to focus on operating systems, videos and blogs has not changed. So there is no competition between the two.
But Qiu Bosong spent a lot of money to recruit Xu Youzhen and his game team from NetEase. You have to know that when he and the Fantasy Westward Journey team were scouted, Ding Sanshi was very impressed.
As for Yang Dongxu's high expectations for "Fantasy Westward Journey", everyone in the entire company knows about it. But the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment, especially since the game type of "Fantasy Westward Journey" is similar to "Westward Journey".
Although "Westward Journey" did not perform well at the beginning, after a period of adjustments and adding playable elements. There is already a trend of becoming a big hit, and coming from behind makes some game companies such as Ninetowns feel that they will be squandered.
In such a same type of game, others take the first step, and there is a posture of taking one step first and then the other. This has put Xu Youzhen's team under great pressure for a while.
"The company's performance this quarter is very good, but in addition to the good games, you must also realize the advantages brought by the company's publicity channels and other resource additions. Don't feel that the results are all your own efforts to avoid arrogance and impetuosity. If we go to the next level, I will give everyone a very satisfying year-end bonus at the end of the year." Yang Dongxu, who was sitting in the main seat, said.
The smile on Chang Hao's face became a little stronger, although Yang Dongxu's words were meant to remind them not to be proud. But the results were now obvious, and he couldn't even think about being happy.
He even now has the title of the number one player in the domestic game, although this title is very exaggerated. As Yang Dongxu said, Rising Sun Technology's resources are unmatched by other game companies.
For example, the cooperation between Rising Sun Technology and the Internet Cafe Alliance makes the promotion of its games a resource that other game companies are jealous of but cannot have. Especially "Swordsman Love" has just been released here.
They are all spread in Internet cafes across the country, and many Internet cafe network administrators have been teaching games for a period of time. Coupled with various posters and point card discount promotions, almost half of the time you go to Internet cafes now, you will play "Swordsman Love" , the other half are playing "Legend", and the rest is the share of other games.
It can be said that the two leading products of Xuri Technology have taken up at least two-thirds of the entire game market. In addition, now web games are eating up the soup when Xuri Technology is very full. The company's performance makes peers feel all kinds of envy and jealousy. As the largest project, Changhao has the capital to be proud, and its neck can bear this exaggerated hat.
"How many registered users are there in Tieba?" Yang Dongxu looked at Qiu Bosong.
He is not worried about the game. If there is Brother Ma in this life, then he must be extremely cautious. Because there are currently two strong players competing for hegemony in the domestic instant messaging software market. If Xiao Ma is the boss of one of them, he will develop himself according to the development model of Tencent in the previous generation.
Then he really needs to deal with it well and even start planning in advance, but now these two big guys seem to be having a lot of fun. The game industry only uses its own chat software's huge user base to cooperate with other game companies to make profits.
There is currently no intention to get involved in the game market, which naturally allows him to let go of the worries he originally needed to raise. Especially after seeing that these two big guys are looking to kill each other and dominate the world, and talk about other developments, I feel more reassured.
Therefore, if you want to get involved in the instant messaging software market, you can postpone it a little and prepare more fully. At present, game users are basically stable in their pockets. Now they are using Tieba and browsers to bundle those who are not keen on playing online games.
If he does his best in this regard, whether he wants to make instant messaging software, Weibo, or other things, it will be equivalent to packing up all netizens to fight. It is much better than CC and MM which seem to have many users now. It is definitely a big fish hidden in the deep water.
"It has reached two million. There are hundreds of thousands of posts every day and 800,000 responses. The online popularity and activity are very good. And currently, guidance on some hot social issues is very popular in Tieba, and almost all netizens online I know. Some news can be seen in Tieba, which makes those portals unfriendly to us."
Qiu Bosong couldn't help but smile on his face. He thought that when he was at Jinshan, he was also a very good boss, but compared to the four major portals, he felt a little shorter.
After all, in this era, the portal is king, being at the top of the Internet industry pyramid and looking down on other peers in the industry. Although Qiu Bosong was determined to compete with these big guys from the beginning.
But the portal traffic is tightly controlled by these people, and it can be said that it is powerless to surpass them. But who would have thought that in just a few years, not only did he control more than 93% of the browsers on computers across the country, but the Tieba he launched also made these big bosses gradually feel pain.
At present, these portals not only increase the technical construction of discussion areas under each news item, but also launch a model similar to Tieba where people click on news and pin it to the top. They are obviously imitating Tieba.
The big guys that I had to look up to in the past are now imitating myself. Thinking about this makes me feel happy.
"Where's the game chat system?" Yang Dongxu continued to ask.
"Legend is good at the moment, because it is a full-screen game and basically everyone chats inside the game. The usage rate and user feedback of the friend chat system are very good. But users on the Swordsman side, although they also chat with friends in the game, But because it is not a full-screen game, the number of people using CC or MM to chat with friends while playing games has remained high."
Speaking of the in-game chat system, Chang Hao couldn't help but look at Yang Dongxu with admiration. At first, Chang Hao was actually a little repelled by having this in-game chat system.
Because it takes up too much game resources, as a game designer, Chang Hao’s main focus is undoubtedly the essence of the game, such as the dungeon settings, various gameplays, game backgrounds, etc. Friends chat is What the hell?
But after several years of market observation, he discovered that the friend system within the game is absolutely an indispensable part of a successful game.
Some people started playing the game because it was fun, the legends were fun to kill, the graphics of the swordsman were very martial arts and the martial arts was awesome.
But as time goes by, the pleasure of simply playing games continues to decrease. Many gamers only stay online every day to maintain a high level of activity. They spend almost all their free time playing games throughout the year.
In addition to the fun of playing the game, part of the reason is the friends in the game. The time and money invested in the account have a certain bond, and the friends inside the game undoubtedly have a deeper emotional bond.
Bragging with friends in the game, doing dungeons together, and killing people together gradually make the relationship no weaker than making friends in reality. Of course, there have been some bad things happening here, such as some people being cheated by their friends in the game.
But there are also some heart-warming things that happened abroad. For example, some friends in the game met in real life and became close friends. They helped each other from the game to real life, and some even became lovers.
Generally speaking, this friend chat system is a positive and positive supplement that greatly complements the game and has a great promotion effect. It is also an indispensable part of the development of new games after many game companies have clearly seen the strangeness.
"Continue to optimize. Currently, both logging in to the game and the chat software are done through the computer. In other words, if the other party is not in the game, then the computer must not be turned on, and naturally cannot be contacted through CC or MM.
Of course, compared to games, chat software has its own advantages. They include real-life friends, family members and even colleagues who do not play games.
But we still try to make it more convenient, interesting and attractive to chat in the game than using chat software. In this way, players can be insured to a greater extent.
You must know that these two chat software are not friendly to us. The contracts with the game companies they signed have exclusive agreements. Gamers cannot be allowed to invest too much energy in chat software.
In this way, they have a greater chance of seeing game promotions from other game companies and leaving our games to play other games. You must know that we are a card game, and every minute they leave is a loss for us. Yang Dongxu knocked on the table and said.
"I understand." Chang Hao nodded. Although he felt that his big boss's demands were a bit high, this was also the reality. The games currently launched by Xu Xuri Technology are all card games. As long as players log out and finish other games for one minute, they will lose one minute of money.
"I will sort out the content of the next version update of Legend and Swordsman. I will take a look at it in the past few days. I will also sort out the updated content that you have discussed and decided on, as well as other electronics that come to mind.
I will inform you if there is anything else. You go and do your own business first and leave Xu Youzhen behind. Yang Dongxu said.
Qiu Bosong and Chang Hao packed up their things, while Xu Youzhen sat in his seat with a serious face and looked at his nose and heart.
