As a popular star with his own traffic, Li Yuan,

Just over a week after the “Milk Tea Sister” selection ended, a new track was suddenly opened up in a completely new field.

The uproar caused by this swept across the country like a 18-mile-wide typhoon.

The widespread coverage of the game by major websites and newspapers has made the game increasingly popular and attracted the attention of the entire nation.

……

As Li Yuan's base camp,
The discussion on the forum of Daxia University was in full swing. Li Yuan’s classmates, some students in the Computer Class 1, were asked about it by many people.

In the university student entrepreneurship base, several students who were working part-time asked curiously:
"Liu Jia, aren't you and Mr. Li roommates? When did he develop this game?"

Liu Jia shrugged: "I don't know either. He's been missing for a long time. He's too busy and rarely comes back to the dormitory."

Another boy wearing glasses asked curiously: "I read online that this game has been in development for several months. Has anyone of you played it?"

"We haven't played it either, but there are detailed explanation videos online, which look quite attractive."

Several people from the University Student Entrepreneurship Base shook their heads.

In this entrepreneurial base, they basically do some website post maintenance work.

We found that there are posts that contain malicious insults, slander, malicious rhetoric, etc., which will have a negative impact on the website.

To actively delete posts and ban them to maintain the purity and attractiveness of the website...

after all,

If a website becomes a cesspool filled with malicious insults and slander, it will not be far from its demise.

As a person who has experienced it, Li Yuan has personally experienced various forums. In the end, they basically all turned into fan circles and insults, resulting in a very bad forum environment...

Although it will bring huge traffic in a short period of time, it will become a false "prosperity" over time, and a large number of loyal users will be lost and moved to other new positions...

A junior part-time student studying game design lamented:

"We are in this startup base. Although the salary is very good, it always feels boring. It would be great if we could join the company's game development department."

When he said this, others immediately agreed. They were all students from 985 universities. Which one of them was not arrogant and wanted to make a career?
"Liu Jia, Wu Hao, Xiao Qiang, you are all Mr. Li's roommates, and you have such a good relationship with him. You can ask Mr. Li indirectly whether people like us can go to the company's R&D department for internship. Even if the salary is lower, it's fine."

"Yes, yes, it's easy here, but I can't learn anything."

"It would be exciting to be able to participate in the development of important products like Honor of Kings or Zhihu."

After listening to what the seniors said, Liu Jia, Wu Hao and others looked at each other in confusion.

During the time they worked part-time at the university student entrepreneurship base, they also learned a lot of knowledge from several seniors.

"Well, when we meet Brother Yuan, I'll ask him for you. He should be very busy recently."

"That's for sure. Tomorrow, January 1, King of Glory will be launched online. I wonder what kind of results it will achieve."

"I can't say anything else, but with Li Yuan's huge influence, this King of Glory will definitely make a lot of money. Maybe the revenue on the first day of its launch will exceed 10 million."

"Speaking of making money, Liu Jia, Wu Hao, do you know how much Li Yuan is worth now?"

Liu Jia shook his head and tentatively gave a rough number:

"I don't know. I think it should be at least 100 million."

A pretty senior student curled her lips:

"One hundred million! Who are you looking down on? Do you know how much money his current "Cha Yan Yue Se" milk tea shop can make in a day?"

Liu Jia really didn't know, he only knew that the business was good, and asked doubtfully:
"I really do not know!"

“How much can you earn in a day?”

The senior student showed an envious look in her eyes and replied, "I have a high school classmate who works at Li Yuan's Cha Yan Yue Se. I heard her say that the daily net profit of Cha Yan Yue Se milk tea shop is over one million, which means 30 million a month..."

Liu Jia's eyes widened and he answered in astonishment: "Oh my god, is this so exaggerated?"

"Doesn't that mean that Li Yuan can earn hundreds of millions a year?"

The pretty senior shook her head: "It should be more than that. The valuation of our company's Zhihu.com has reached 10 billion, and there is also this "Honor of Kings", plus "Cha Yan Yue Se"..."

"Perhaps, by the time he graduates from university, Li Yuan's net worth will have reached tens of billions."

"Liu Jia, Wu Hao, Xiao Qiang, you are Li Yuan's college roommates. This is a great opportunity that comes once in a blue moon. As long as you follow Li Yuan, you won't have to worry about the rest of your life."

"Oh, I'm really envious of you guys!"

Liu Jia, Wu Hao, and Xu Ziqiang looked at each other and smiled, all with an expression of pride.

"Hehe, Brother Yuan is really good to us brothers."

……

January 2009, 1, 20 a.m.

With hundreds of millions of Chinese netizens paying attention, "Honor of Kings" has been officially launched after internal beta optimization and adjustments, and is available for free download on the official website and major software managers.

Li Yuan, along with his girlfriends Xia Zhijin, Zhong Tingyue, and Bai Weixi, watched the first day's data together.

Li Yuan had high expectations for the data that would be officially launched today, but he was also very nervous.

Although various well-known game bloggers and netizens gave almost unanimous positive reviews to this game during the internal test, and it was also highly discussed on the Internet, it is still unknown what the market feedback will be when it is actually launched.

After all, this is the first competitive game in China where real players battle against each other on a platform. Some game players may have a low acceptance and will wait and see.

Unlike the later mobile game "Honor of Kings", which has gone through the era of "League of Legends", it has a very high acceptance rate and is much simpler to operate...

Beside him, Zhong Tingyue looked at Li Yuan, who had a tense expression, and whispered in his ear:
"Senior, you seem a little nervous!"

Li Yuan squeezed Zhong Tingyue's little hand and nodded with a smile:
"It would be a lie to say I wasn't nervous. I take this game very seriously. Although I'm sure it will be a huge success, I was still a little nervous before the final results came out."

Zhong Tingyue looked at Li Yuan's cheek and smiled secretly.

To outsiders, Li Yuan was a talented and extremely confident super genius. He seemed confident in everything he did, as if he could do anything.

However, only a few people around them knew that Li Yuan was an ordinary person besides his talent.

There are joys, sorrows, anger, and happiness, there are worries and expectations, and there is fear that what you do will not achieve the desired results...

Zhong Tingyue stretched out her small hand and held Li Yuan's hand, then placed his hand on her thigh in stockings and rubbed it gently. She put her cherry lips close to Li Yuan's earlobe...

"Senior, you are so great, don't worry."

An itchy feeling near his ear helped Li Yuan dispel the tension in his heart.

He reached out his hand and gently stroked Zhong Tingyue's thigh for a while.

Even though it was winter, the weather in the Magic City was not too cold. A girl who loved beauty like Zhong Tingyue was still dressed like a cool goddess. She had the temperament of a goddess, and she was someone who could never get tired of looking at her...

Li Yuan chuckled and asked quietly, "Xiaoyue, you said it was so great, what do you mean?"

Zhong Tingyue cast an ambiguous look at Li Yuan and smiled secretly:
"Senior, what do you think?"

Li Yuan looked down at the two sisters, Big Bear and Little Bear, who were trying to escape from the cage.

After several months of personal training by him, her body has become more rounded and plump, from immature to mature, with a more mature and sexy charm...

"Hey, what I think is not important. What's important is what you think!"

Li Yuan looked at Zhong Tingyue meaningfully and said jokingly:
"You are the one who has experienced it firsthand, so you have more say."

"Little Moon, am I right?"

Zhong Tingyue had long been accustomed to Li Yuan's aggressive gaze and lewd words. She rolled her eyes at him shyly and opened her sexy lips slightly beside his ear:

"Senior, my relatives have left, you can relax a little tonight!"

Li Yuan listened to Zhong Tingyue's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his heartbeat accelerated. My period had just ended, didn't it mean that I could go to NS without restraint?
When he and his girlfriends were playing poker, they often couldn't do anything without scruples.

Especially after the first experience, they were particularly careful afterwards, fearing that they would win the prize unexpectedly.

But for Li Yuan, in order to give Li Yuan a better experience, he would specially calculate his own cycle...

Li Yuan himself loved his girlfriends very much and did not want to cause them too much harm.

Even for Bai Weixi, after the first few NS, he was more careful when playing poker and did not do those things recklessly.

Li Yuan truly understood a truth: if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet.

If you really do that without taking any safety measures, your girlfriend will definitely fall into the trap.

They are just freshmen, and it would be inappropriate if they got infected now. They would definitely have to endure strange looks from others.

If they really wait until they graduate from university, Li Yuan won't care anymore. He will definitely find ways to leave more descendants for the Li family and provide them with a guarantee for the future.

Otherwise, it would be a big loss if I made so much money but didn't even have an heir...

Li Yuan suddenly became distracted. Looking at Zhong Tingyue's stunning beauty, he felt itchy in his heart and wished he could execute him right there in the office.

However, Bai Weixi and Xia Zhijin were also in the office.

In the company, Hu Zhenqiang and others would come in to report data at any time.

Li Yuan could only hold back his restless heart and whispered jokingly in Zhong Tingyue's ear:
"Little Moon, I'll give you a good lesson when I get home tonight."

Zhong Tingyue blinked and replied with a smile:
"Senior, I'm already prepared."

As he spoke, he also quoted a line from Baby Daji in "Honor of Kings".

"Master, come and play with Daji!"

Li Yuan was listening to Zhong Tingyue's lines as Daji, and suddenly a scene came to his mind.
What kind of experience would it be if we let Zhong Tingyue, Bai Weixi, and Xia Zhijin cosplay as the female heroes in Honor of Kings in the future?
With their three angelic looks, it would definitely be very beautiful, very exciting, and very attractive...

"I almost forgot, there is also a game called cosplay. I will let them try it more in the future."

"Hehe, it's a happy decision."

Zhong Tingyue listened to Li Yuan's muttering and suddenly shuddered, feeling that Li Yuan seemed to be up to something bad.

"Senior, your smile is so scary! Are you planning something bad again?"

Li Yuan smiled mysteriously: "You will know later."

……

Amidst the laughter and joy with a few girlfriends, it has been an hour since "Honor of Kings" was officially launched.

Hu Zhenqiang came to the office excitedly and reported the first hour's data to Li Yuan.

"Mr. Li, good news. The game has been downloaded more than 30 times in the first hour, and the turnover has exceeded 100 million. It is still growing steadily and rapidly..."

"Among them, the source of revenue is mainly users purchasing game heroes and hero skins..."

Li Yuan listened to Hu Zhenqiang's report and nodded.

The data from the first hour had far exceeded his expectations, and because it was morning, the data was already very good.

The way this "Honor of Kings" makes money is roughly the same as the way the "Honor of Kings" made money in the previous life.

In other words, the way most games make money is very similar.

The main things are purchasing heroes, skins, inscriptions, various game props, etc.

However, "Honor of Kings" is not a pay-to-win game. Except for skins, other heroes, inscriptions, etc. can be purchased with gold coins, and gold coins can be accumulated slowly by playing games.

On one hand, it costs time, on the other hand, it costs money. It all depends on which choice the player makes.

"Not bad, we are very close to initial success." Li Yuan looked a little more relaxed and urged:
"The most important thing now is to pay attention to the players' gaming experience and solve various problems that may occur, such as frame drops, freezes, disconnections, etc...."

Hu Zhenqiang suppressed his excitement and nodded solemnly.

Now is definitely not the time to get carried away. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Now is just the beginning of our journey towards success.

……

Throughout January 20th, Li Yuan stayed in the company to check the user experience of "Honor of Kings" and various data online.

By eight o'clock the next morning, the first day data of "Honor of Kings" had been completely released.

The number of registered users within 24 hours of downloading reached 3542370, among which the number of female users registered reached an astonishing 50.

This is already a relatively large number in computer competitive games.

Among them, there are many female users who come purely for Li Yuan’s reputation.

Because there are rumors online that Li Yuan will appear in the game.

Moreover, these female fans have strong purchasing power. They can buy inscriptions, heroes, and skins without blinking an eye.

They can spend thousands of dollars to grab concert tickets and buy milk tea, so letting them spend a few hundred dollars to play games is not a problem at all.

The huge star effect has resulted in an extremely large recharge flow on the first day.

On January 1, the first day's cash recharge turnover reached an astonishing 20 million.

This is under the premise that there are various activities on the first day of download.

If all kinds of users are already familiar with the game, then future data will be even more exaggerated.

It can be said that the game "Honor of Kings" had already recovered its research and development costs on the first day of its launch, making it a true success.

After the first day's data came out, major websites and news media naturally rushed to report on it, and they all spoke with almost the same voice, praising the game "Honor of Kings" highly.

What are the titles of "epoch-making game", "historical milestone of Chinese games", "king of games", "hammer that breaks the monopoly of foreign games", "new generation of online game company giant", etc.
All kinds of exaggerated names were given to Li Yuan and his "King of Glory"...

On the Internet, the discussion about "Honor of Kings" has skyrocketed in popularity, reaching the top of the hot search list and has almost become a discussion across the entire network.

Some of the "Xia Hua fans" even gave the highest praise.

even,

Li Yuan didn't even need to arrange for online trolls to lead the rhythm like he did before. The huge number of fans spontaneously led the rhythm in various forums, blowing the story to the sky and on earth in an unprecedented way.

Like "the best picture quality", "epic settings", "unprecedented gaming experience", "you will regret it for the rest of your life if you miss it", etc...

It can be said that it was truly blown away.

……

In the villa of Galaxy Bay,
After spending a happy and unrestrained night with Zhong Tingyue,
After Li Yuan got up, he looked at the discussions about "Honor of Kings" on the forum and in the fan group.

[All of them are very good. Xiahua's products must be top-notch. You are absolutely right. This "King of Glory" is really fun. I downloaded this game at 6 pm last night and played it until 2 am. It was really addictive. Especially the last few ranking modes, it was really super exciting...]

[As a veteran gamer and a die-hard fan of Xia Hua, I can say something fair. The game "Honor of Kings" looks easy, but when you actually play it, it is very playable... It is not wrong to say that it is a groundbreaking game. I can guarantee that within a month, this game will occupy half of the domestic game market.]

[Hey, am I the only one who noticed that there are a lot of female players in this game, including many pretty ladies. I played the game with several ladies last night, and their voices were so sweet. The gaming experience was really amazing.]

[+1 to the above, brother, we are like-minded. I was originally playing World of Warcraft, but last night two female college classmates suddenly dragged me to download "Honor of Kings". I was reluctant at first, but one of them played Daji, the other played Wang Zhaojun, and I played Monkey King... They were selling and flirting with girls the whole time, and my heart melted just listening to them... Fuck World of Warcraft, I will be a loyal fan of "Honor of Kings" from now on...! ]

[I have to say, I also think that one of the reasons why the game "Honor of Kings" is bound to be so popular is that there are too many female players in it. For single people like us, it is really attractive... Play the game more, maybe you can find a sweet girl as your girlfriend in the game! ]

……

Li Yuan looked at the various discussions among netizens and couldn't help but smile.

In the past life, one of the most fundamental reasons why the mobile game "Honor of Kings" could remain popular for a long time was that it had a large number of female users and they could remain active for a long time.

Other mobile games, such as "Chicken Eating", can only be popular for a while, but can never be as popular as Honor of Kings for a long time.

This is because it is not as attractive to female users as Honor of Kings.

In this era, except for some special industries, such as KTV, bars, foot baths, etc., men's spending power is not as good as that of female users...

Li Yuan muttered to himself:
"It's 2009 now, and there are only two or three years until smartphones become popular. By then, I can launch the King of Glory mobile game and harvest another wave of traffic..."
