The first day in Hangzhou was naturally a meeting, but the theme of the meeting was not the competition with CC and MM.
After knowing that the above does not particularly agree with YY's monopoly in the instant messaging software market. Although the senior management of Rising Sun Technology feels very hopeful, I am obviously very powerful, so why do I have to let these two disgusting guys stick together.
But I also know that things cannot be done, so I can only adjust my mentality by myself. I transferred my energy from thinking about how to kill these two disgusting guys to how to develop my company better.
Therefore, we can only leave aside the discussion of software for the time being, and many functions cannot be launched online due to network and current computer configurations. At present, we can only maintain our position as the boss and make money with peace of mind.
Therefore, Xuri Technology is currently focusing on the game development department and 361 Security Guards.
"For now, although the number of people online in the "Legend" game continues to decline, it has bottomed out and is now stable. The number of people online in Swordsman and Fantasy has repeatedly hit new highs and the results are gratifying.
It can be said that the troika of the game department is still running on the fast lane. Although there is great pressure from external competition, such as several games represented by Ninetowns and "World of Warcraft" from Shengda, they currently have their own merits and are not the same. It didn't have a big impact on our company.
As for the issues you raised before about the exchange of game currency among the three games and the development of the internal economic model of the game, preliminary results have now been achieved. This is the plan. "Chang Hao was making a report on the game.
"Did you encounter any problems during the specific work process?" Yang Dongxu put the document aside first. This requires time to look at it carefully. Obviously, there is no such time during the meeting.
It is impossible for all the company's management to sit in the conference room and wait for him to read the documents and then hold the meeting.
"We didn't have any problems here in the game, but we encountered something outside." Chang Hao raised his brows and said.
"What's going on?" Yang Dongxu asked.
"Actually, it's not too troublesome. It's just that a trading platform has recently appeared on the Internet. It's a bit similar to an intermediary in reality. For example, game currency transactions were previously conducted between players within the game.
But now with the emergence of this trading platform, the platform will act as an intermediary to let players who want to sell game coins trade the game coins to the platform's game account, and then the platform game account will be traded to the person who wants to buy game coins. The platform will act as an intermediary from Get commission inside.
When we held a meeting before to formulate our own game economic model for Rising Sun Technology, the plan included a plan to build our own game mall. This may have some negative impacts on our own game mall in the future. "
"What is the name of this trading platform?" Yang Dongxu was stunned for a moment, and the name of a website suddenly appeared in his mind.
"5174, as well as the 59 city website that has just become popular, and the Universal Intermediary Network seem to have begun to get involved in this field." Chang Hao said.
In fact, this matter is a bit troublesome, mainly because of the Universal Intermediary Network. After all, Changhao also knows that the company's own boss is also a major shareholder. When Xuri Technology was first established, Universal Intermediary often asked Universal Intermediary to poach people from other companies.
"How is the progress at the game mall?" Yang Dongxu asked.
5174 He is very familiar with it. In his last life, when he wanted to earn money while playing games, he often bought game coins outside. The other party's agency fee is collected unilaterally.
It charges a handling fee from players who sell game currency, but players who buy game currency do not need to pay any handling fee. He was still a little surprised that 59.com suddenly appeared to do this. In fact, 59.com also worked as an intermediary for games in the previous life, but it was not as early as now.
"It is still under development, mainly because the amount of data docking is too large. After all, this is different from game currency. The game currency transaction on the intermediary platform is a transaction between players within the game.
This function originally existed in the game and is a normal function of the game account. It is just that there is an additional game character created by the trading website as the middleman during the transaction.
It can be traded in the mall. Players put game coins, equipment and babies in the mall first. Then these products need to be locked in the mall and can no longer appear in the game. After other players purchase them, they need to transfer the data of these items from the mall. to the purchasing player.
The entire transaction must ensure that locking, transfer, and data are completely normal. When the game was developed, no preparation was made for this function. Everything had to be started from scratch, so the progress was not very fast. "
Changhao knows that its own official trading platform has a great supplementary effect on the stability of the economic models of the three games. But this thing is not the same thing as the mall for items sold inside the game.
And this involves not only the transaction of game props, but also the money and currency transactions related to Alipay. It also adds to the security issues of the trading mall, fund security issues, etc., which makes it even more complicated.
"Just keep an eye on the trading platform website and wait until our trading mall is online before making plans." Yang Dongxu pondered for a moment and said.
In fact, the existence of such a website, although it is to make money from the game company, does not actually affect the operation of the game. On the contrary, it will promote transactions in the game.
After all, there are currently increasing cases of player-to-player transaction fraud in games. With this third-party platform used to mediate transactions, it will also have a certain inhibitory effect on players defrauding players.
After all, there is a fundamental difference between such intermediary websites and players using cheats to destroy the balance of the game. Moreover, even if your own game trading mall is online, such websites cannot be completely eliminated.
For example, in order to eliminate cheating, it is impossible for game companies to promote power leveling, but many players need power leveling.
This gives such intermediary websites room to survive, so even if the trading mall is online, it can take away the share of such website's game currency and prop transactions, or even completely block this area.
However, for power leveling, gaining experience, completing tasks, running business and other businesses, the official cannot advocate this, but the website can do such things.
So regardless of the fact that the other party relies on Xuri Technology's games to make money, such behavior actually promotes the development of the game.
After all, not everyone has so much time to play games all day long, and the people who spend money in games are precisely those who don’t have much time to play games, because they don’t have much time to play games, and they want to be better than others. Can spend money to buy game props.
At the same time, most people who have no time to play games are office workers, and their spending power is also online. Therefore, the business of intermediary power leveling is not recommended for the game companies themselves, but it also benefits themselves. After all, people are making money as long as they are online with Xuri Technology.
"How's the little game going?" Yang Yao looked at Ma Fang.
"Currently, the integration with YY is very good. The number of players playing Landlord has hit new highs. The number of people playing chess and Go online is also increasing. There are even many national-level professional chess players who have registered accounts and often play in We compete with private experts in our game hall."
Compared with the future, when it comes to games, it means selling as many props as possible, making as much money as possible, and looking for celebrities to attract traffic and harvest leeks.
It is a great honor to be recognized by professionals for making games now. This feeling seems to be more satisfying to the game development department than making money. After all, even professional players say that the things I have made are good.
"Where are the web games?" Yang Dongxu continued to ask.
Everyone who makes games feels that web games are very niche. Based on the number of players and their popularity, web games are indeed niche games as everyone knows.
But the consumer groups faced by this niche game are basically office workers, that is, people with spending power. Therefore, the ability of a good web game to attract money is definitely beyond the scope of its niche status.
"Everything is operating normally. However, due to technical barriers, there are currently many copycat versions of web games on the market, which have had a certain impact on other games. CC and MM are also investing heavily in this, and they have huge users. Qunfen has taken away a lot of market share." Ma Fang said with a frown.
The current trend of the IT industry has basically completely transitioned from the portal era to the traffic era. Whoever controls a huge user base has the right to speak. Therefore, CC, MM and YY instant chat software have natural advantages in this regard.
When a new web game is launched, you only need to push a link to the user, and after the other party clicks on it, they can directly log in with their chat software account with one click, instantly converting the user into a web game player.
"Do you have any countermeasures?"
Ma Fang glanced at Qiu Bosong, and then said: "The response we have discussed at the current meeting is to use our huge user base to build web games into a game platform like a mini game."
"Tell me more specifically." Yang Dongxu suddenly became interested.
"Actually, this is also inspired by the recent boom in e-commerce. The technical barriers to web games are much lower than those of large-scale games. Basically, a few programmers can write the game, and then find an artist to beautify it and launch it online.
So we thought, since we can't stop these people from imitating us, or anyone can come up with a web game, the web game market will be chaotic and uneven.
How about we provide servers and build a web game platform. Others develop web games, rent our servers, and then operate them on our platform.
Rent the server for rent, and let us help operate it, then give the operation money. If you want to attract traffic and advertise, you also need to pay for advertising. In short, just like e-commerce, if you buy something on my platform, you will give me a commission. "
"This is a good idea." Yang Dongxu clapped his hands, which undoubtedly helped the users who tried the YY chat software for free to make money.
