After rebirth, I became very good

Chapter 168 Happy Farm is online

Xu Mo looked through the notebook Chen Chi had recorded, and Chen Chi, who was sitting in the back row, was also very nervous at this time.

After Xu Mo finished flipping through the entire notebook, he said calmly: "Chen Chi, you are very serious, but what you recorded is just superficial. If you come here earlier, I can get you a programmer position." , but now I have no shortage of programmers. If you want to come in, I can only arrange for you to go to the planning department like Cheng Nan."

"I won't go to the planning department." As soon as Xu Mo finished speaking, Chen Chi refused.

Chen Chi and Cheng Nan are different. Cheng Nan wants to hang on to Xu Mo's lap, but Chen Chi wants to enter Xu Mo's company with a learning attitude.

In fact, Xu Mo didn't care about Chen Chi's purpose of entering his company. If he and Tong Xue had not had the current relationship, Xu Mo would be very willing to let Chen Chi enter his company.

First of all, as a student of the Computer Science Department of Han University, Chen Chi is undoubtedly very talented. After only one year of studying, he can already record Weibo questions in a notebook, which shows his logical thinking ability and learning ability. They have strong habits, even now Xu Mo needs such employees.

You know, the recruitment itself was because the group of graduate students recruited by Xu Mo were busy with their graduation thesis and were not focused on work.

And Chen Chi has ambition in his eyes.

However, it always feels weird to recruit Chen Chi because of Tong Xue's relationship.

This is not cost-effective because a talent is missed because of a woman.

But out of caution, Xu Mo could only do this.

Xu Mo said with some regret: "If it's in other departments, you can go wherever you want, but I personally lead several project teams in the company. I already have plans here, so I'm really sorry, otherwise you can go first Planning Department, I’ll let you know when there’s a place available?”

Chen Chi said: "Isn't that just taking your money for nothing?"

In Chen Chi's view, most of the employees in the planning department were taking Xu Mo's money for free. He was not without reason. Cheng Nan was an example. He was idle every day, so didn't Xu Mo pay him the same salary?

In Chen Chi's opinion, Xu Mo let Cheng Nan in because of his roommate relationship.

But Chen Chi doesn't want this.

"If you are afraid of me because you are worried about my relationship with Tong Xue, Xu Mo, you can rest assured." Chen Chi's character was as upright as ever. He would say whatever he wanted. He said, "I know Tong Xue likes you. , but Tong Xue and I have already ended, believe it or not, Xu Mo."

As Chen Chi spoke, he took off his glasses and said seriously: "I don't hate you,"

Xu Mo was a little embarrassed when Chen Chi looked at him. He thought to himself that it was because you thought you had nothing to do with Tong Xue. If I re-employ you, you would someday find out about my relationship with Tong Xue. If you stab me in the back, I would be miserable. .

"In this case, I'll keep the notebook for now. Summer vacation is about to begin. Don't you have to go home too? When you come back, I'll think about it again. If you really want to join my company, we'll see what you think." Xu Mo Still rejected Chen Chi.

This made Chen Chi a little regretful.

At this time, Xiao Min had already driven the car to the entrance of the school. Chen Chi hesitated for a moment, and finally got out of the car without saying anything.

After getting off the bus, Xiao Min watched the car take Xu Mo away.

Xu Mo looked through the notebook that Chen Chi had recorded and sighed. A year ago, he might not even know what a computer was. It was only in one year that he had such a profound understanding of computers. Han University was indeed a crouching tiger. dragon.

Xiao Min couldn't help but be curious after hearing this: "Didn't you just say that what he recorded was just superficial?"

Xu Mo couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and turned to look out the car window: "Take me to Wenwen's side. You can drive the car back tonight."

It was rare for Xiao Min to take the initiative to talk to Xu Mo, but Xu Mo didn't reply. Xiao Min was a little disappointed. At the same time, Xiao Min was even more depressed when he heard that Xu Mo said that he wanted to take him to Qi Wenwen's place. He remembered that Xu Mo was not like this before. .

Xu Mo gave Chen Chi's notebook to Xiao Min and asked Xiao Min to show it to his colleagues in the project team. Why were they not as good as a young man who had just finished his freshman year after reading books for so many years?

The last exam has ended, and summer vacation has arrived as scheduled. College students have been on vacation starting from June 20th. At this time, the mobile version of Weibo is not very popular, but the number of users of the computer version has officially reached its peak in June. It has exceeded million. In fact, the so-called Weibo has too many similarities with the QQ space at this time. Some people at Penguin have even said angrily that the so-called Weibo is plagiarizing our space!

It's just that because Xiao Ma has a cooperative relationship with Xu Mo, he feels that there is no need to spend a lot of time on a website of the same type, so just treat it as a good relationship.

The reason why Weibo has developed so fast is entirely due to Qihoo's sparing no effort in promoting it in the early stage, and the addition of many writers from previous blogs, which attracted all the traffic to the blog.

And Zhou Muyan hired a group of interns who did nothing every day. They just called the industry leaders to invite them to join Weibo and give them blue-level certification.

So just like that, in just three months, Weibo has accumulated 80 million views.

Since the beginning of June, Weibo has undergone a revision. When you open Weibo, an animation will appear, saying congratulations to Weibo users for exceeding 80 million, and a game will be launched at 12 noon on June 20th!

The first 10,000 players to log in to the game will receive 200 Weibo growth points!

Oh, yes, I have to mention Xu Mo’s transformation of Weibo. In order to increase users’ viscosity on Weibo, Xu Mo created a growth value system, which is similar to Penguin’s stars, moon, and sun.

But the difference is that Weibo is a community website. People who use Weibo want to attract others to see their homepage. Therefore, when the growth value increases, the user's exposure on the homepage will increase. This will not Users who are keen on exposure will definitely not care, but those who are professional writers, or pretty girls in school who love to post selfies, will particularly care about growth value.

Xu Mo used growth value to attract everyone's curiosity about the upcoming game.

Xu Mo has been preparing for this game for a long time. For this reason, he even shamelessly asked Qihu and Penguin to help him promote it. Qihu's side is simple, it is nothing more than increasing their say in the Black Panther security guards. The problem is that now Xu Mo doesn't care about the Black Panther Guardian at all. The Black Panther Guardian is basically managed by Qihu.

Originally, Lao Zhou wanted to hire another security guard, but seeing how casual Xu Mo was, he didn't even think about starting a new one, so he simply raised his godson as his own son.

Xu Mo wants to promote it now, so Lao Zhou can give it if he can. Anyway, he is not engaged in social software.

On the Penguin side, Zhou Muyan had a phone call with Brother Xiao Ma.

Zhou Muyan plans to create a channel for Penguin Space and share data.

When a user logs into Penguin Space and enters Happy Farm, a window will pop up asking whether to authorize?

If the user clicks to agree.

Then users can directly use Penguin to log in to Happy Farm.

This saves users the hassle of registering accounts again and again.

This kind of user sharing has become commonplace in later generations, but when Xu Mo mentioned it to Brother Ma, Brother Ma felt it was new and couldn't help but ask: "What kind of game makes you go online like this?" Heart?"

"It's just a simple web game. I made it myself and wanted to try out the results." Xu Mo said with a smile.

Brother Xiao Ma was talking to Xu Mo on the phone. He couldn't help but push up his glasses in a funny way, and told Xu Mo as a person who had been there that the game was not that easy to play.

"I have been making games for so many years. Do you know what is the most important thing about making games?" Over the phone, Xiao Ma is a good teacher.

"What? Plagiarism?" Xu Mo couldn't help blurting out.

Brother Ma's face turned dark.

"No, no, what I want to say is to learn from, ahem, learn from." Xu Mo was a little embarrassed.

Xiao Ma replied: "What I want to say is user stickiness."

"Oh, that does matter."

So Xiao Ma had a long discussion with Xu Mo about his years of experience in making games. However, Xu Mo was not interested in listening and asked Xiao Ma if he could give him a channel.

Brother Xiao Ma said that although you are a shareholder of the company, you also understand the company's rules. You must pay a channel fee, and it is not cheap.

"It's okay, I'll just hand it over." Xu Mo replied directly.

"Is it worthwhile for you to do this?" Brother Ma felt that Xu Mo was acting on his own initiative. He had seen many young people who were very motivated before the product was put on the shelves, but found out after it was put on the shelves that it was not accepted by the market.

Not to mention many young people, even Xiao Ma himself would sometimes have a sudden idea at night, but the next day he felt that it would not work.

"It's worth it! You'll have to start all over again!" Xu Mo said with a smile.

Since Xu Mo has said so, Brother Ma will not persuade him anymore.

Penguin charges are never cheap, and Xu Mo paid more than 10 million for the passage fee.

If Happy Farm cannot get up, then Xu Mo will definitely lose a lot.

So just like that, the time came to the 20th, noon.

Xu Mo ran over just after finishing the exam.

Also surrounding the studio were Tong Xue, Xiao Min, and some freshly graduated programmers hired by Xu Mo.

At 11:55, the Weibo page had been refreshed, and there was a poster depicting a farmer wearing a straw hat, working hard in the sun.

Then it says next to it, a cool summer!

In this hot summer, claim your land!

10!

9!

8!

1!

In the last ten seconds of eleven o'clock, Weibo was suddenly covered by a huge animation. This may cause some users to be unhappy, but you must know that Xu Mo spent so much time just to build this happy farm, so it must be Do your best!

Now the time has come.

At the same time, there were millions of people online, but only 200,000 people clicked into Happy Farm.

A conversion rate of five to one seems a bit low.

Tong Xue reported.

But Xu Mo didn't say anything, he was waiting.

After the user clicks on Happy Farm, they will follow the novice instructions, first harvest the mature seeds in the land, and then go to the store to purchase seeds for planting. At this time, the system will give you a pack of ordinary chemical fertilizer. The effect of ordinary chemical fertilizer is to advance the maturity time of crops by ten minutes, and for first-level crops, this is just enough to mature directly!

Twenty minutes later, the number of new users of Happy Farm exceeded 500,000, and 450,000 of them harvested their first crops.

In fact, the game Happy Farm is not that it is very fun, and there is no way to say that it attracts everyone instantly. The reason why everyone is willing to stay and experience it is because the cartoon style of this game is indeed more attractive.

And this is the first time they have discovered such a smooth web game, and it feels like there is no need to wait for caching at all.

Xu Mo still spent a lot of money here.

Another reason why this game is successful is that it has a high acquisition rate. It is basically a fool-like game. Anyone can follow the instructions to plant, fertilize, and then harvest.

When it was first launched, this game did not show the so-called game stickiness.

But an hour later, the number of users of Happy Farm has exceeded 900,000, and the number of newly added friends has exceeded 2 million. At this time, the social attributes of Happy Farm are truly revealed.

Noon is the time to eat. Except for those college students who are at home on vacation, most people eat on time.

Just like Brother Ma, when he works until 11:30 every day, he will go to the cafeteria to eat with several subordinates. While eating, Brother Ma suddenly thinks that Xu Mo will put on the so-called Happy Farm today.

Brother Xiao Ma is still a little concerned about Happy Farm. After all, Xu Mo, an eighteen-year-old boy, created a free anti-virus software and opened up a blue ocean in the Internet world.

Now I suddenly and inexplicably want to create a game, what kind of game will it be?

"I heard it's a management game, similar to Farm Story in an island country," his subordinate said while eating.

"Farm Pastoral? That's an old game, and what if he wants to make that game into a web game? It will take a long time to load." Another subordinate said.

During the meal, most of the subordinates were chatting there, but Xiao Ma didn't interrupt. He just pushed up his glasses and ate noodles seriously.

By the time we finished eating, it was already 12:10. When he returned to the office, Brother Ma immediately asked his secretary, how is the data of this game?

"There are already 100,000 people online."

"One hundred thousand."

Brother Xiao Ma nodded slightly, given such a large traffic push, one hundred thousand can only be regarded as ordinary. He came to the location and opened Happy Farm. It was a simple flash game. It didn't seem to be anything special, but after playing it for a while Later, Xiao Ma seemed to realize that this game was unusual.

Happy Farm upgrades quickly in the initial stage. After harvesting a round of crops, you will immediately upgrade to level two, then unlock new land, purchase new crops, and receive fertilizer rewards!

Everyone can keep upgrading by following the formula. After upgrading, they will have more fun. At this time, everyone is trying to figure out how to play this game. They want to see what Xu Mo has done in such a big battle. What kind of game have you made? For example, after opening it, hey, it turns out to be a farming game.

Oh, the vegetables grown are quite beautiful.

ah! Can I still buy a dog?

Is the puppy so cute?

Buying a Border Collie for only 5,000 gold coins?

If I sell the crops, I can earn 10,000 gold coins.

Bought a dog,

Oh, it turns out that puppies can prevent others from stealing food.

Haha!

This setting is so interesting!

This is what most players think.

As the boss of a large company, Xiao Ma would not have such thoughts. He just wanted to find out what kind of game Xu Mo had developed, but he just kept playing this game according to the instructions, and unknowingly he Played for half an hour.

The most important thing is when Brother Ma wants to steal food.

Received a prompt [Your friend [Zhou Hongyi] stole your crops! 】

Brother Xiao Ma couldn't help but frown after hearing this, thinking that this Zhou Hongyi was just unqualified and would steal his own crops just to play a game.

He must have done it on purpose!

Brother Xiaoma and Zhou Hongyi must have registered Weibo accounts. After all, it is Xiaomao's product, but they have never used Weibo. This is their first time using Weibo. They didn't expect Zhou Hongyi to steal their food.

This really made Brother Ma annoy this gangster even more.

At this time, Brother Ma also completed the task of stealing vegetables.

Suddenly I saw that Zhou Hongyi's crops were about to mature in two minutes.

Brother Ma didn't even think about it and just waited there.

How could he suffer!

After Zhou Hongyi stole Brother Xiao Ma's crops, he felt secretly happy and thought, hum, let you be domineering, I can't subdue you in the mall, so I might as well steal some of your food!

This game made by Xiao Xu is quite interesting!

At this time, Zhou Hongyi had almost forgotten that the reason why he played this game was to see what medicine Xu Mo was selling in his gourd.

Unexpectedly, I became addicted.

However, Lao Zhou has some self-control. Lao Zhou feels that after harvesting this wave of crops, he will shut down Happy Farm and stop playing.

Two minutes to go.

Just enough for a cigarette.

So Lao Zhou smoked a cigarette and wanted to harvest wheat, but he clicked on it.

"Hold!"

Lao Zhou couldn't help but curse, "Damn, this stinky penguin!" You deliberately waited for my crops to mature to steal my crops, right? ?

It was obviously only three minutes late.

He was actually taken advantage of by Lao Ma!

Lao Zhou couldn't swallow this breath, so he finally made a phone call.

"Mr. Ma is really leisurely. He doesn't sleep at noon and comes here to imitate others in stealing food." Lao Zhou said and clicked on Brother Ma's farm. There are still two minutes to mature.

Then wait another two minutes, the place must be recovered.

"Isn't Mr. Zhou as leisurely? It's rude to come and go without reciprocating. Mr. Zhou has already come to me for a spin. If I don't go over and take a look, wouldn't it be very rude?" Xiao Ma said while talking to Mr. Zhou. phone while continuing to operate Happy Farm with the mouse.

"The game Xiao Xu made is a bit interesting." After all, the two of them are shopping mall bosses, so they still need to talk about their superiors.

"It's a bit interesting." Brother Ma agreed.

"Ah."

Zhou Hongyi hummed, and when he saw that Brother Xiao Ma's crops were ripe, he clicked to steal them.

Who knows, something new will happen to the interface.

[You were caught by [Porridge] at your friend’s house and lost 147 gold coins! 】

A border collie's dog head appears in the interface, named Porridge.

porridge?

weekly?

Zhou Hongyi's face instantly turned pale: "My surname is Ma! What do you mean! Your dog has the same surname as mine!"

"Hahaha!" Brother Ma also received a reminder that your pet dog [Porridge] caught a vegetable thief!

The picture above shows a thief being bitten by a dog.

Brother Xiao Ma had already replaced Zhou Hongyi, and with Zhou Hongyi's voice coming from the mobile phone, Brother Xiao Ma couldn't hold back for a moment and actually laughed.

"Why does it have the same last name as yours? My dog's name is Porridge, and it's not Zhou Zhou. Mr. Zhou, what's going on? He was bitten by a dog?!" Brother Ma asked with a smile.

"Mr. Ma, you are worth hundreds of billions after all, why are you still playing this kind of game of coaxing children? Childish!" After finishing speaking, Zhou Hongyi hung up the phone directly.

Brother Xiao Ma is in a happier mood and can make Zhou Hongyi feel more comfortable than losing tens of millions in the mall!

This game is so fun!

What a good dog!

Gotta reward him.

Brother Ma was thinking about going to the mall to buy some dog food for the dog.

It turns out that ordinary dog ​​food actually requires cash, and you can buy a bag for six yuan.

Without even thinking about it, Xiao Ma wanted to buy a bag for his pet dog.

But when he wants to pay.

His expression couldn't help but change!

Finished!
