Crossover: 2014

Chapter 336 One Line of Code Ten Thousand Dollars

Huang Jing was impressed by the rapid growth of Lin Hui's wealth.

Zhu Zhu was also expressing similar emotions.

Zhu Zhu is a third-year undergraduate student in the Computer Department of Shuimu University.

In his spare time, Zhu Zhu will record his daily life or share some interesting programs on the YouTube platform.

Originally, Zhu Zhu was just tinkering around for fun.

Unexpectedly, it has tens of thousands of subscribers.

It's true that it was unintentional.

Actually it is understandable.

Ordinary people are curious about the world of programmers.

Not to mention the world of Program Yuan.

It is very eye-catching for a programmer who is willing to record her daily life and share interesting programs.

In addition, Zhu Zhu's appearance is still very good.

Beauty + program girl, it is not difficult to attract attention.

Having said that, after having many fans, Zhu Zhu didn't experience the joy of being an Internet celebrity most of the time.

Instead, I lived a life of being urged to change every day, and I was very speechless.

Anyway, Zhu Zhu has been delayed for a week.

Don't say anything bad.

How can it be so easy to find materials?

It can't be perfunctory.

That's not Zhu Zhu's habit of doing things.

Simply drag it on.

But recently Zhu Zhu decided to update it.

As for why update.

Naturally, it is because GRAY FOREST released a new tour.

It is unreasonable not to make full use of the popularity of such door-to-door delivery.

Speaking of which, Zhu Zhu didn't play games much before.

As for why a person who doesn't play games much notices GRAY FOREST?
Or because of a network promotion not long ago.

As a YouTube blogger with barely over [-] subscribers.

Zhu Zhu originally thought that it would be a long way to realize something through advertising.

After all, the general funder tends to look for YouTubers with more than [-] subscribers when promoting through YouTube.

Unexpectedly, when the game "FLAPPPY BIRD" chose to promote the game on YouTube, GRAY FOREST set its sights on the YouTuber with 10000 subscribers.

Although I don't know what kind of brain circuit Gray Forest made such a choice.

But Zhu Zhu felt a sense of accomplishment when he received the task of online promotion of the game "FLAPPPY BIRD".

Probably similar to the feeling of being recognized.

However, after receiving the corresponding promotion task, Zhu Zhu was not completely happy at the time.

Will the promotion of such a game be scolded for just eating or something.

Although Qiafan is very common, Zhu Zhu is a technical video blogger after all.

If it's just a meal, will the previous fans just run away?
After some complicated psychological conflicts.

Zhu Zhu finally decided to take on such a promotion task.

At that time, the reason why Zhu Zhu finally decided to take on such a task was that Zhu Zhu learned that the developer of "FLAPPPY BIRD", GRAY FOREST, was an independent developer, and he was not an ordinary independent developer who made trouble. It is one of the few well-known independent game developers in China.

Although Zhu Zhu is only a junior student.

But Zhu Zhu can be regarded as a relevant practitioner in the computer field, and Zhu Zhu knows the difficulty of being an independent developer.

Among the various types of developers, independent developers are the most maverick type.

In particular, the development path of domestic independent developers is even more difficult in Zhu Zhu's view.

Anyway, in the future career planning, Zhu Zhu has thought about many future career development routes, but he almost never thought of being an independent developer in the past.

Even if it is an occasional thought, it basically directly kills the related thoughts in the bud.

For an independent developer like GRAY FRPRET, although Zhu Zhu could not be said to pay homage to him, he had a certain degree of admiration.

Zhu Zhu can also help when he thinks he can.

What's more, it's still a paid promotion now, so it's not a bad loss for Zhu Zhu to help out with the publicity.

Therefore, Zhu Zhu chose to take over the promotion of the game "FLAPPPY BIRD".

At the beginning of the promotion, Zhu Zhu paid great attention to skills in order to avoid being accused of poor money.

At that time, when promoting the video, Zhu Zhu mostly deconstructed the technology, rather than simply promoting the game itself.

Although Zhu Zhu thinks he pays attention to promotion skills.

But after the video was finished, Zhu Zhu was still in a nervous mood.

After all, it's the first time to have a meal, what if you lose your fans?
However, things were not as pessimistic as Zhu Zhu expected, after the promotional video was released.

Zhu Zhu was a little surprised to find that Zhu Zhu did not drop his subscription.

On the contrary, it stands out from the crowd of coquettish promotional videos because of its unique deconstruction angle.

A video also accidentally added more than ten thousand fans.

Um, so amazing.

In the past, the growth rate of Zhu Zhu's fans was completely slow compared to this speed.

Inspired by this event.

Since then, this deconstruction of products from a technical point of view has become a style of Zhu Zhu's videos.

After Gray Forest came up with the game "HILL CLIMB RACING".

Following the enthusiasm brought about by the launch of this game, Zhu Zhu made a technical deconstruction video.

After this video was sent out, the number of people following Zhu Zhu increased a lot.

Zhu Zhu understood.

Good guy, this GRAY FOREST is the traffic password.

After that, Zhu Zhu just kept following the dynamics of Gray Forest.

Now GRAY FOREST has released a new tour.

Zhu Zhu could naturally take advantage of such an opportunity.

Although there is suspicion of rubbing heat.

But how can it be said that the matter of the technicians is rubbish?

After the YouTuber's video is produced, it can in turn fuel the popularity of GRAY FOREST's release of the game.

This is a matter of mutual benefit.

Anyway, I don't know how much higher it is than those who eat human blood steamed buns with various malicious structures after learning of some painful social events.

In short, recently Zhu Zhu has been studying Gray Forest and made this dinosaur game.

Zhu Zhu is a purely technical study.

The reason why Zhu Zhu is like this is because Zhu Zhu wants to structure the dinosaur game made by Gray Forest from a technical level.

In this case, even if you don't ask Zhu. Zhu to come up with a replica version of the dinosaur game.

At worst, I have to make a demo.

Otherwise, don't talk about technical deconstruction.

It is not very complicated to involve such a game technology as the dinosaur mini game.

I watched a lot of game demo videos made by game video authors.

Zhu Zhu has basically figured out the content of the dinosaur game designed by Gray Forest.

After that, Zhu Zhu went a step further and created a demo.

Although it is a demo, basically both the UI and the core gameplay are very similar to the official version produced by GRAY FOREST.

As long as Zhu Zhu wants to reproduce this demo and improve it a little bit, he can create a replica version.

(Of course, the so-called perfection in making a reprint version does not mean that the details are supplemented to make it exactly the same as Gray Forest.

Instead, some differentiation must be made, otherwise the exact sameness would be an infringement of software copyright. )
However, "waiting for the body" remake, which is almost indistinguishable from piracy, Zhu Zhu has no interest.

Anyway, he is also a member of the Mizuki Computer Department.

Although Zhu Zhu rarely flaunted this identity.

But Zhu Zhu also has his own pride in his heart.

And even if it is a replica, it may not be able to replicate the success of Gray Forest.

Judging from the demo made by Zhu Zhu's research on the dinosaur game of Gray Forest.

All the project files including the UI and the core gameplay of the game can be completed in about 3000 lines of code.

Of course, when discussing the total number of lines of code in a project, it is generally assumed that this type of code is more indented according to the standard.

It is not impossible for some development languages ​​to write in one line. . .

While paying attention to the technical realization of the dinosaur game created by Gray Forest.

Zhu Zhu also paid attention to the results of this game.

Judging from the data provided by some third-party websites.

Zhu Zhu knew that the actual effective download of this small game made by GRAY FOREST has exceeded 1000 million times.

The effective downloads of a small buyout game like "T-rex's Journey" are almost directly linked to revenue.

According to a valid download of 3 dollars, 1000 million valid downloads.

Doesn't the total revenue of such a humble little game exceed 3000 million US dollars?

If you want to calculate the revenue per line of code, wouldn't it be $[-] for a line of code.

The level of making money is comparable to printing money.

I have to say, Zhu Zhu is envious!
But envy is useless.

People cannot be generalized.

Zhu Zhu thinks that GRAY FOREST is not so much a line of code worth $[-].

It's more like $1 for a line of code.

GRAY FOREST's name/charm is worth $3000 million.

Zhu Zhu felt that the statement that one line of code was worth one dollar was not deliberately lowered.

For a small game like this without difficulty, after clarifying the requirements.

Find some outsourcing teams with college students as the main body.

The quotation of nearly 2 yuan, such as three thousand dollars, can even make some outsourcing teams roll up.

Zhu Zhu felt that it would be better to change the same game made by an ordinary development team or developer.

There is a high probability that it will be difficult to replicate the current success of Gray Forest.

Even even some small results can be reaped in the end.

I'm afraid it will also go through a rather long word-of-mouth fermentation period.

Although it is difficult to replicate the success of Gray Forest.

Zhu Zhu is still well versed in the essentials of marketing: ——Be the first to win.

Therefore, the new video of Zhu Zhu has been changed to:

How Much Money Does Game Development Make? Gray Forest's new game is worth $[-] in one line of code》

After naming the video after this, Zhu Zhu sent out the finished video.

Soon Zhu Zhu noticed Zhu Zhu's "How much money does game development make?" GRAY FOREST's new game, one line of code is worth [-] U.S. dollars" is the number of views of this video growing rapidly?

Although it has long been clear that GRAY FOREST is the traffic password.

But Zhu Zhu never thought that this video would grow so fast this time.

Unexpectedly, the number of views soon exceeded [-].

Although it is said that every time Zhu.zhu posts a video, he will share the video link to the fan group.

Although there are quite a few people in Zhu Zhu's fan group, they are basically young and old, although they are usually urged to be more energetic.

But it's not necessarily that there are not many who can watch Zhu Zhufa's video in the first place.

After all, Zhu Zhu posted the video on YouTube, and no matter how active the members of the group were, they had to work hard to climb the wall.

Doesn't this mean that this time "How profitable is game development?" Gray Forest's new game, one line of code is worth [-] U.S. dollars" The reason for the rapid increase in the number of views of this video is basically the credit of some passers-by who are not fans?
And to be able to achieve such a rapid increase in playback volume among passers-by on the external network, doesn’t it mean that "How profitable is game development?" GRAY FOREST's new game, one line of code is worth [-] U.S. dollars." Does this video have the potential to become a hit on the Internet?
It is also understandable that people from all over the world have surprisingly consistent concerns about the matter of "getting rich overnight".

When the topic of "getting rich overnight" involves the always hot GRAY FOREST, wouldn't it be reasonable for the topic to ferment.

With this in mind, Zhu Zhu suddenly felt that the game Zhu Zhu had played earlier was inappropriate.

Zhu Zhuma slightly changed the previously posted video and posted it again.

Of course, this time, both the introduction content and the corresponding title Zhu.zhu are all in English.

Such a video can reach as many user groups as possible on the extranet.

Sure enough, after this adjustment, once the new video was released, the number of views exceeded [-].

And judging from the exponential growth in the number of broadcasts, Zhu Zhu felt that the number of broadcasts this time might exceed one million times.

In the past, the highest number of views of Zhu Zhu's video was only more than [-].

Um, is it so fierce this time?
Zhu Zhu couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

……

……

The words are divided into two parts.

It was Huang Jing's question about how Lin Hui made money so quickly at dinner.

Although Lin Hui was asked suddenly, it would not be said that he was caught off guard.

Ever since Lin Hui was reborn and made his first pot of gold in "Life Restart Simulator".

Lin Hui has been preparing for the answer to the outside world's question "about how he made money so fast".

Lin Huixin prepared many different answers to this question in advance, but these were basically used to confuse the public.

Even though some of these confusing answers seem logical, they are destined to be impossible to be real answers.

As for the real answer, that can only be Lin Hui's eternal secret.

Unless of course there is someone you absolutely trust.

But absolute trust in this kind of thing is mostly just wishful thinking.

Unless there is such a thing as a thought stamp.

Under such circumstances, Lin Hui decided to answer Huang Jing's question according to the answer he had prepared earlier.

People like Huang Jing have a relatively close relationship with Lin Hui.

Although it is a confusing answer.

But it's not an entirely worthless answer.

If Huang Jing is perceptive enough, I believe that Zhu Zhu can gain a lot.

Facts have proved that Huang Jing is not an idiot, and Zhu Zhu should have gained a lot from the conversation with Lin Hui.

Lin Hui felt that during the dinner, Huang Jing was almost star-eyed and adored.

Although Huang Jing with an adoring face gave Lin Hui a novel feeling.

However, Lin Hui is not surprised. Lin Hui knows that since he was reborn, he has made a lot of noise.

Especially after being officially reported by the official press.

Lin Hui felt that many people and things around him had actually changed quietly.
