Crossover: 2014

Chapter 46

Time unknowingly came to the evening of the 15th.

At this time, Lin Hui was still living in Mingpin International's villa.

Unaware that he has unknowingly become the "prey" coveted by many people.

At this time, he had already "housed" in the villa all day.

Of course, even "house" is not the kind of house that does nothing.

Even after the game "FLAPPPY BIRD" was launched, Lin Hui chose to relax.

But there is no leisure in the world.

Lin Hui wanted to do nothing, but his strength did not allow it.

In the past few hours, information feedback from all sides has swarmed towards him.

Even if Lin Hui wanted to steal half a day's leisure from Fusheng, he couldn't do it.

Lin Hui only felt that he was at a loss.

Maybe it's time to get a secretary to share the load.

The secretary has something to do.

But where to find the right secretary?
It's not that just one person can be competent as a secretary.

At the very least, it has to be a community of interests with Lin Hui.

If even the minimum alignment of interests cannot be achieved.

What's the difference between putting it by your side rashly and planting an indeterminate time bomb?
Thinking of this, Lin Hui shook his head helplessly.

Fortunately, the news that is rushing towards him is basically good news.

Judging from the feedback from Goose Factory and Zha Lang, the game announcement effect can be said to be very ideal.

Many social platforms have formed a good discussion atmosphere on the game "FLAPPPY BIRD".

What surprised Lin Hui the most was that such a small game as "FLAPPPY BIRD" actually became a topic of discussion on Zhihu.

Zhi/hu has a lot of questions about this game.

What Lin Hui didn't expect was that the most popular question was related to this game.

It is neither why this game is popular, nor is it discussing how this game is popular.

Instead, a bunch of people are discussing "Is there any bird in nature that uses the same flying method as the pixel bird in the "FLAPPY BIRD" game?"

Lin Hui saw Gao Zan's answer under this question and answered it like this:

"In nature, there are indeed some birds that fly like the Flappy Bird. Some small passerine birds, such as sparrows, fly in this way of 'flappy flying'. Because their wings are short and round , can't spread its wings to glide like falcons and pigeons at all, but they can fly by fast flapping. Rapid flapping of wings is very laborious. In order to reduce physical exertion, they will adopt this wave-like flying method in flight - rapid flapping The wings go up, then fold the wings, fall in a parabola, and continue to flap the wings to go up..."

This serious format and hard-core popular science made Lin Hui really uncomfortable.

It seems that the current Zhi/hu environment is not bad, at least not like the "laxative man just gave birth to his mother in Mongolia" like in the next few years.

And there are still a lot of serious science popularization under the answer.

Instead of answering all kinds of cleverness like in the previous life.

So, it’s still okay now. How did it become the kind of smoky atmosphere later?

……

In addition to the good discussion atmosphere on social platforms.

Lin Hui noticed that the official AppStore on the background of his personal developer account sent him a lot of messages one after another:
"Hello, dear developer, the game "FLAPPY BIRD" developed by you has been included in the App Store Featured New Games this week. During this period, it is best not to have a large version iteration to avoid unknown bugs that will affect the player experience. Impact……"

"..."

"Hello, dear developer, you have successfully joined the AppStore Individual Developer Incentive Program, please check the link www.<>.com for details"

"Hello, dear developer, I am Huang Jing, a software engineer at AppStore. If you need help, you can communicate with me at any time. Contact information:..."

"Congratulations to your excellent developer, the game "FLAPPY BIRD" developed by you has successfully exceeded 2000 million (valid) downloads worldwide."

Included in this week's App Store Featured New Games, it is best not to have a larger version iteration during this period to avoid the impact of unknown bugs on the player experience..."

"..."

Judging from these news, the current download situation of the game "FLAPPPY BIRD" is not bad.

The download data on the first day basically crushed the "2048" he developed before.

In fact, it is not as simple as breaking through 2000 million valid downloads.

From the background data, the actual effective download volume has reached 2341 million.

Lin Hui believes that the actual first-day effective downloads are likely to exceed 3000 million.

In fact, judging from the feedback received from Apple software engineer Huang Jing.

If it weren't for the AppStore unexpectedly crashing several times today.

Lin Hui felt that the current effective download volume should have exceeded 3000 million.

Although the number of effective downloads has not yet exceeded 3000 million, the number of downloads on this first day is also the highest in the world.

This result is very gratifying, but it is basically within Lin Hui's expectations.

After all, this game was a hit mini-game in its previous life.

All in all, the results of this game are gratifying.

But income is not entirely gratifying.

From the data point of view.

At present, there are 2341 million valid downloads, of which 2305 million valid downloads come from the domestic AppStore.

The effective downloads in overseas regions are only 36 times.

The country is still in the exemption period, and Lin Hui has no habit of placing advertisements in the game.

The 2305 million effective downloads in China have basically no possibility of other income except for some incentive income for Lin Hui.

Overseas, the 36 effective downloads.

According to the current division principle.

Overseas downloads will only bring Lin Hui 36×0.99×70%=$24.948 in revenue.

This is not enough.

If the overseas share is less than 25 US dollars, Lin Hui will lose money.

After all, Lin Hui spent 100 million US dollars in publicity expenses overseas.

mention this.

Lin Hui was puzzled.

In any case, he also spent a huge amount of publicity fees.

Why is the publicity effect so unsatisfactory.

Could it be that my promotion strategy has overturned again?
But it shouldn't be said.

Although showing the game "FLAPPPY BIRD" in the form of video may be a bit boring.

But YouTuber can completely induce potential player groups through speech skills~
Lin Hui doesn't believe that these YouTubers who can have tens of thousands of subscribers don't even have the ability to incite people.

Or if the problem does not appear in the announcement.

Where did that come from?

Lin Hui thought for a while.

It dawned on me.

The problem was the time difference.

When the game "FLAPPPY BIRD" was launched globally simultaneously.

Although China is in the daytime.

But the main overseas consumption areas are still in the dark~
Lin Hui understands why he invested 100 million US dollars overseas for publicity and promotion.

The number of downloads is only 36.

Sure enough, no matter how good the announcement is, it can't match the jet lag after all.

But in the final analysis, his reputation is still not big enough.

If the reputation is big enough, it will be attractive enough to users.

So what if there is a jet lag?

The αpple conference is always at 1 o'clock.

Don't you stay up late and watch a lot?
Lin Hui obviously still has a long way to go if he wants to reach this level.

Speaking of the game itself.

Now it seems that there is no need to worry about any overseas markets encountering Waterloo.

Overseas players can contribute 36 effective downloads even when it is dark and resting.

Then after dawn, it will only be a matter of minutes to break the million mark.
