Who doesn’t want to make money after being reborn?

Chapter 175 Mobile games are the future
  "I have a bold idea."

"Why don't we pick an opportunity to merge the servers of various countries into one server, and let the krypton money bosses squeeze into one server to compete for control of the major cities."

“Cloud servers are so delicious.”

"There are no physical barriers like traditional servers. As long as the data link is connected, dozens of servers can be merged together."

“It’s exciting to think about.”

"Millions of gamers gather on the same server, which is a great initiative."

"..."

Wu Yang just rushed back from Doha to attend the year-end report.

After briefly reporting on the game's operation, he talked endlessly about the next plan, trying to persuade the boss to agree to merge the various servers together.

As he said.

This is a great initiative.

In the history of online games, which is just over ten years old, there has never been a game that accommodates hundreds of thousands of players crowded into the same server.

Players on the servers basically have no contact with each other, and no matter how awesome their armor is, they can only show off to the tens of thousands of players inside the server.

Not happy!

If we put these money-making bosses on a server and upgrade the game map to create a complex map that is close to the real world, would it be more in line with the equipment needs of the money-making bosses?
  "No, don't be impatient yet."

However, Luo Hui raised his hand to interrupt in a shameless manner: "Brother Fengyun, the purpose of our game is to make money, not to create miracles."

"Furthermore, developing a game map for millions of gamers to play online at the same time is not a huge system project that can be completed in a short time."

"We have to take it step by step slowly."

"For example, every year, we organize a team battle between the top servers, etc., and let the game brothers of each server have a brief contact."

"I think Dahua 2 is doing well."

"We will follow that model and let gamers experience the top communication environment on a small scale first, and then decide whether to expand the server scale."

"Alternatively, you can also turn on the cross-server battle system to allow gamers to experience the fun of battle more, and then you can consider whether to expand the map and put all players on one server."

"It is actually a very risky move to rashly change the existing rules of the game."

"It's also a waste of human resources."

"I think that with the popularity of smartphones, PC online games will gradually decline, and mobile games are the future."

"So, most of the game development efforts still have to be concentrated on the mobile game side."

"First develop the Honor of Kings and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds that I mentioned. We want to reap the first wave of dividends from mobile games."

Online games are the best monetization tool for traffic media, bar none.

Luo Hui doesn't want to take risks with innovation.

A server with millions of people online at the same time sounds awesome, but in actual implementation, things are complicated and the resources required are extremely exaggerated.

Spending money is still a small thing.

What he couldn't stand most was wasting time.

Instead of wasting so much time building a server with millions of people online at the same time, why not create a few more profitable games?
  Honor of Kings and PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds are mature game models and mature monetization routines.

Why bother leaving mature monetization channels aside and risking a super-large server that has never appeared before?

but.

His words were not fatal.

Wu Yang comes from a game development background and has a special liking for the online game industry. He cannot completely block his ambition to make progress.

Let's use some tricks to delay the process first, and then consider developing a server that can accommodate millions of people after finishing the urgent things at hand.

"All right!"

After getting the exact answer, Wu Yang seemed to have no intention of continuing to promote, and instead gave Ruan Feng the opportunity to speak.

Ruan Feng’s main focus is on developing short video software and improving core algorithms, and his year-end presentation is relatively simple.

Explain clearly in three or two sentences.

However, Tian Chun, who had just returned from a business trip to Mao Xiong, had a more informative statement.

He spoke eloquently: "They have not yet recovered from the pain of the disintegration of the Red Empire, and the income of scientific researchers is horribly low."

"Converted into soft girl coins, it's only about [-] yuan, and prices are high. This salary can't support the family at all."

"The scientific research environment is even more terrifying."

"Unfortunately, after more than ten years of competition among various countries, the mathematicians who still choose to stay in Mao Xiong are all patriots and are not willing to come to work with us."

"But they are very happy to accept our proposed cooperation methods and financial subsidies."

"..."

"Four universities and a mathematics center are basically the biggest results of my efforts these days."

"As for when the results will be available, we still don't know yet."

Ah!
  Luo Hui nodded slightly, signaling Tian Chun to end his statement.

AI large models are a process of continuous trial and error and improvement, and should not be rushed.

take it easy.

Anyway, the amount of investment is not large, and WeChat can continue to invest for more than ten years before pursuing profit returns.

Today is the day when the four founders meet for a meeting and no one else is allowed to participate.

Luo Hui spoke more relaxedly: "I won't go into specific data. In just five months, WeChat has been able to reach this point, which far exceeds my expectations."

More than exceeded expectations!
  It’s just mind-blowing!

Who would have thought that the program originally planned to be sold to Penguin Group would bring such huge profits.

You can wake up with a smile in your dreams!

The other three laughed so hard that they couldn't see their teeth, but did not express any opinions. They simply vented their emotions and continued to listen.

"So, I summarized the reasons for our success."

"Mainly because of the courage."

"The most critical part was that in the end we withstood the pressure of Jack Ma, Lao Shi, and Mr. Ding, and insisted that the lion open its mouth wide and bit off a piece of meat from them."

“This mouthful of meat is very critical.”       “With such an experience, we have the courage to continue to open our mouths for the first and second rounds of financing.”

“Then, the amount of financing reached a frightening scale of [-] billion.”

"make persistent efforts."

"Based on this successful experience, when we launch the short video platform next, we should be more ambitious and open up the pattern."

"Three short video APPs should take overseas markets into consideration at the beginning of their operations and don't shrink back."

"Isn't it just money?"

"We have more than enough!"

"There are two main agendas today, one is money and the other is shares."

"Each company calculates the operating investment amount of each short video APP, and I withdraw funds from the WeChat fund pool based on the calculated amount."

"Don't be afraid to spend money."

"Try to be as loose as possible. There are currently [-] billion rials in our WeChat fund pool, which is equivalent to more than [-] billion soft currency."

"We have the right to withdraw 5%, which is almost [-] billion."

“This amount of money is enough for us to make a splash on three short video apps.”

"This is how I consider the issue of shares."

"Technology stocks account for almost 20%, and whoever presides over the development of the APP accounts for 10% of the original shares, and the other 10% of the shares are team dividend shares."

"We are not accepting financing."

"The other 80% of the shares are owned by ByteDance."

"This is my personal opinion. Before it becomes a fact, if you have any opinions, please raise them directly. It can be discussed."

WeChat is a money-making project.

Games are also money-making projects.

The original intention that allowed three programming masters to give up their generous treatment and join Bytedance was the short video APP.

This is the core business of Bytedance.

It was finally time to prepare for operating the short video APP, and the eyes of the other three people were filled with eagerness to try.

"I agree with this proposal."

Wu Yang was the first to express his position: "Frankly speaking, with the 2% of WeChat shares I currently hold, I am worth over one billion."

"It feels... like prostitution for free."

“I didn’t do anything and suddenly became a billionaire.”

"If we take another 10% stake in the short video platform, our net worth may soon exceed [-] billion."

"My income in just six months has exceeded my income in the past ten years."

“In terms of income, I am very content.”

"The question now is, that plan to change the world."

"Since we are not short of money, why not go crazy and try to change the world?"

Good guy.

You are free and easy!

If changing the world was as simple as you say, the world would not be dominated by the great powers.

Luo Hui smiled bitterly.

His eyes shifted to Tian Chun, wanting to know what this old man was thinking.

"Don't look at me!"

Tian Chun glanced at Wu Yang: "I am satisfied with the example of Brother Fengyun in front of me."

"Grandma, I've only been working for half a year and my net worth is already over one billion."

"I believe Mr. Luo will not treat me badly. I don't care about income. Even if the short video platform fails, I will still be a billionaire."

"At least I can afford to support my wife. I'll find some sisters-in-law for Mr. Luo next year."

It's wrong to rush!
  Others are employees who work hard, but the boss marries his employees' wives.

Why did my boss try so hard to get his employees to marry him?

No such reason!
  Before Luo Hui could refute, Ruan Feng said cheerfully: "No problem, I support this share distribution plan."

"The short video platform does not need financing, but it cannot throw money like crazy as Mr. Luo said."

"Especially when 4G licenses have not been issued yet."

"I suggest that we focus on launching a short video APP first, and then launch the next short video APP when the market matures."

"Concentration of funds."

"Manpower concentration."

“Resources pooled.”

"Just like operating WeChat, as long as we concentrate all our efforts on one point, it won't take too long to launch a short video APP."

"Maintaining the speed of launching a new APP in two years is actually enough to suppress all competitors."

"Moreover, it can also be adjusted according to the different operating styles of emerging competitors."

“This way, we have a greater chance of winning.”

"..."

Ruan Feng has a professional background in finance.

In terms of business management and operations, he is actually more professional than Luo Hui, a reborn person, and his opinions are also to the point.

He was quickly supported by the other two.

"Brother Feng is right, Mr. Luo, we should operate the short video APP according to Brother Feng's plan."

"I also think Ruan Feng's plan is more secure. Mr. Luo, let's use this plan."
