Chapter 164 Too Hot (Part [-])
Originally, Ye Feng didn't plan to use props to motivate so early, but he didn't want users to manage their contacts on Happy Farm too utilitarianly from the very beginning, and they couldn't let them manage the friends on the farm as if everything was for the game. Make it improvised, and encourage them to add friends from their lives.

User friends playing games can increase the friendly relationship between the two parties.

The task of inviting friends is to ask Weichat users to invite Weichat users, because many Weichat users register for welfare. For example, my friends on Weichat and your friends on Weichat cannot all know each other. If you have a happy farm, you will invite all your friends.

The first choice of users is definitely to invite friends around them, and first transplant the relationship in their social life to Happy Farm, which is also the most feasible for users.

In this way, the sociality of Happy Farm is further improved, and users can also make new friends and strengthen their connections.Ye Feng remembers that many people find girlfriends by playing games.

Ye Feng can also keep some users who were originally for the welfare of Weichat, so that he can earn more when some items are charged, which can be said to be a lot of benefits.

From the data, Lin Qi can see how hard the users have worked to get ordinary fertilizers during the online period. If this reward is announced, most users will try their best to complete it.

However, whether it is ten packs or fifteen packs of common chemical fertilizers, for Envision Technology, this kind of virtual props can be said to be zero cost, but the incentive effect it brings to users is amazing. "

At 09:30, Mr. Li came to the company with a pair of panda eyes. Today is the first time he is late for work. The reason is very simple: he stole vegetables too late last night.

The first thing he did when he came to the company was to turn on the computer, which was basically a routine. However, after turning on the computer, he did not check the company’s intranet for work reports, but first opened the Weichat Happy Farm. Before he went out, he planted a wave of vegetables, which were 10 minutes past maturity.

Going up to see, sure enough, only 40% were stolen again. These friends are like rats, too bad. Basically, if you can’t harvest them immediately, even if you play for ten seconds, you will be stolen to the bottom. the result of.

After harvesting the vegetables, and then planting another wave, Mr. Li felt as if he had completed the task. He was relieved, and then realized that he had become so addicted to this game. From waking up to now, his mind was full of There is only one thing on his mind: the special sense of accomplishment of playing Happy Farm, growing and stealing vegetables, which has always made him feel itchy in his heart.

It was also at this moment that he really realized how amazing the future development space of this game is.

It was also at this moment that he really understood why Ye Feng spent so much money to promote Weichat. In the game of Happy Farm alone, Weichat had already established itself, and its users were on the same level as Koukou.

The development of this game takes time. Although I have never made a game myself, I still understand the general process of the game. At the beginning, the game structure must be produced, just like a movie script. After continuous revision, a final version is obtained, and then the team develops it. , After the development is completed, an internal test is required to find various errors and loopholes. After passing the internal test, it will go online to face the majority of users.

Calculating the workload involved, Ye Feng should have started developing this game two months ago.

I have been on the Internet for so long, but this is the first time I have seen a game that can make people addicted to it so quickly. Mr. Li felt very sad. Just smashed, decisive enough, confident enough.

But this time Penguin Twist really cultivated a strong opponent for himself.

This morning, a considerable number of people went to work with panda eyes on their faces. Happy Farm covered nearly 300 million users overnight, including a considerable number of Internet practitioners.

All Internet peers tried Happy Farm with the mentality of research and understanding, but what they didn't expect was that this game is so addictive, with the cartoon farm style, the childish way of growing and stealing vegetables They all seem to have a strong brainwashing ability. Once you play, you don’t know what purpose you are here for. There is only one thought in your mind: "I want to steal vegetables! You guys are not allowed to steal my vegetables!"

Ye Feng knew very well that the popularity of Happy Farm hadn't really started yet. The most powerful stage of this game was when users built a huge network of contacts. In the news back then, there were many uncles and aunts in their 50s and [-]s who set alarm clocks to wake up at night. Stealing and collecting vegetables, and there are many girlfriends who blame their boyfriends for not helping them collect vegetables in time and break up. The most interesting thing is that subordinates steal food from their bosses and get fired...

In short, this game is quite magical, and in the next few months, even greater miracles will be created.

Mr. Li of Baidu is obsessed, Zhao Yahong is obsessed, and Baidu's technical talents are obsessed. Similar situations have happened in almost every Internet company in China.

What's more, when many employees arrive at the company, they will definitely open the Happy Farm quietly, go in from time to time to steal a dish or something, and the addiction index is full of stars.

Mr. Li found his assistant and asked him to notify the senior management to hold a meeting in 10 minutes, but what he didn't expect was that half of the senior management staff had not arrived at the fixed scale of eight!
This is really unexpected. The company is in a stage of rapid development. Under normal circumstances, the arrival time of senior management personnel will not be so late.

Afterwards, the assistant gave another feedback: "Half of the people in the company's technical department were late today. The employees who have arrived seem to be in a bad state of mind, as if they stayed up all night last night."

Mr. Li couldn't help but frowned, staying up all night together?Could it be that other people in the company are also playing Happy Farm?
When he thought that he was late because he stayed too late playing Happy Farm, Mr. Li felt that this was a bit embarrassing!

After waiting for a few minutes, Zhao Yahong hurried to the company. As soon as he arrived at the office, he heard a report from his subordinates that Mr. Li had found him. He hurriedly dropped his bag and rushed to Mr. Li's office. Mr. Li, you overslept."

Mr. Li looked at him and said, "Did you oversleep? I think you played too late last night, right?"

Zhao Yahong smiled awkwardly and said, "It's a bit late to play, but the main thing is to study and study."

Mr. Li didn't care about it, and said with a smile: "I played very late yesterday, so I just played Happy Farm. It is indeed a very innovative and thoughtful game."

Zhao Yahong nodded and said: "Yes, I have been studying this game last night. The more I study it, the more I think this game is amazing. It's a genius idea. Who would have thought of such a mentally retarded and simple game? To be able to get involved so quickly makes people want to stop.”

Mr. Li looked at Zhao Yahong's obvious dark circles, and asked curiously: "Old Zhao, if you were asked to evaluate this game objectively, what do you think of this game?"

Zhao Yahong thought for a while, and said seriously: "Damn, this game is poisonous!"

"Toxic?" President Li frowned.

Zhao Yahong said: "It's like an addiction, people can't stop playing it, it always has a latent energy that forces you to keep focusing and refocusing, if you harvest late, your crops will be lost. Steal most of it. If you plant seeds late, your upgrade progress will be slower than other friends, and your ranking in the friend ranking will continue to decline. If you don’t steal food and help at any time, you will lose experience, gold coins You are slower than others in everything and props, so the oppressive feeling of competition is always there, and the motivation to push you forward is also quite abundant, it is always poisonous, and you can't stop at all!"

After hearing this, Mr. Li sighed: "I feel similar to you. This game seems to have magic power, and it's hard to get rid of its attraction."

Zhao Yahong said: "How about we also gather people from the technical department to hold a meeting and ask them to evaluate the time and cost of developing the same type of game, and we will also integrate this game on the search engine."

Mr. Li said with a depressed expression: "Our product viscosity is too low. It is easy to develop this kind of game, but it is too difficult to do it. Don't forget that Ye Feng spent more than one billion in cash to get so many users on Weichat, or did he rely on With the enthusiasm we have fueled, Weichat has now gained a firm foothold."

So Mr. Li said to Zhao Yahong: "Go and organize the company's high-level and technical personnel first. There will be a meeting in the conference room in 10 minutes. I will call Ye Feng."

Zhao Yahong said: "Okay, I'll go to organize a meeting first.

When Zhao Yahong went out, Mr. Li took out his mobile phone and called Ye Feng.

After receiving Mr. Li's call, Ye Feng was not curious at all. He greeted him as soon as he came up and asked, "Mr. Li, why do you call me when you have time?"

"By the way, thank you Mr. Li for promoting and reminding Weichat."

Mr. Li automatically ignored the last sentence, and said with a smile: "I called to congratulate you. You have created such an amazing game as Happy Farm. It seems that no one can stop the rise of Weichat."

Ye Feng said humbly: "Mr. Li, you praise me too much. This is just a casual and interesting game, and I haven't even found a profit model yet."

Mr. Li said: "That's right, your game still can't compare with Legendary's end games in terms of profit margin. Their second card costs more than 30 yuan per person per month."

As he said that, Mr. Li suddenly thought of a question, and said, "Why don't you sell chemical fertilizers on Happy Farm, just the ordinary chemical fertilizers, one yuan per bag, and I'll buy a hundred."

Ye Feng smiled and said: "You are trying to kill me, Mr. Li. You started charging and buying items as soon as you go online. Isn't this pushing users out of the door? Don't say I'm not ready to sell game items yet, even if I do, at least After half a month, the most important task for Envision Technology during this period is to support users."

Mr. Li said with a little embarrassment: "I'm just always joking with you. Your game is really fun, and the props are also very attractive. If you really sell props online, I will definitely support them with practical actions. "

Ye Feng said with a smile: "That's good, when we really launch paid items, I will be the first to notify you."

Mr. Li saw that the politeness was almost over, so he laughed and turned the topic to what he really wanted to talk about: "By the way, Ye Feng, you should be short of money now, right? I want to invest in Weichat. I'm serious. I hope you consider it."

Ye Feng said: "I will seriously consider it. If you need financing, call Mr. Li."

"Goodbye."
