Reborn Cultural Empire

The top student in Yang Ming's dormitory is having a hard time these days.

In the past, although there were guys from the dormitory next door every now and then, or students from the same major came up and down the stairs, but the number of times was not too frequent, and most of them just chatted casually after coming over. , won't stay long.Especially after several other people in the dormitory ran out to be cool, those who dropped by would not stay for long.After all, there is not much estrangement between Xueba and ordinary young people, but there must not be many common topics, and this person is so happy. His relationship with the other five roommates in the dormitory is indeed very good, but if he can guarantee that one person can be quiet Study time is also a benefit.

But now this situation has changed. For more than a week, even if several other people have left the dormitory and went out for group activities, the number of people who come to visit the house is still increasing.After most people heard that the others were not there, they basically said "oh" in disappointment and left without saying anything polite to him, but there were also some who were clearly told that those few The guy is not there, but he still has to make insinuations and ask him about things.And the topics these people asked had a common feature——"What is the background of Yang Ming in your dormitory? I heard that there is a cousin who runs a company at home?"

Regarding the situation in Yang Ming's house, not to mention that he seldom hangs out with the other five people, even the other four roommates may not know much about it.So faced with this kind of question, this person's answer is naturally all unclear.Sometimes he is also very suspicious, even if someone in the family starts a company and becomes the boss, wouldn't it attract so many people to come to inquire about the situation?

It's not the richest man in China.As for this look?

So today someone came to inquire about the situation again, and the question was about Yang Ming's family.This person, who usually pays little attention to things other than studies, has also made up his mind.After Yang Ming and the others come back, they must find out how great the other party's family background is. Why are there endless people who come to ask that guy's cousin like a sweet potato?

I remembered that Yang Ming hadn't come back yet, but two other groups of people came immediately, and the first group was actually three girls from the class.The female resources of science and engineering have always been criticized by college perverts, but the number of girls in their class is not enough.But the quality can barely be regarded as medium, and it will not be crowned with the title of dinosaur.The student bully in Yang Ming's dormitory was taken aback when he saw that a girl came to the door on his own initiative, but after he figured out the purpose of the other party's visit, his curiosity about Yang Ming's family situation finally reached its peak.In the past, it was only boys who asked, why are even girls here now?

Just when he was explaining to the girls that he had been spending the past few days in the library and hadn't had much face-to-face with Yang Ming.The second group of people came over, but there was only one, the counselor of Yang Ming's class.After hearing the conversation of several students in his class, the young counselor who turned around from the door looked suspicious.I thought some students in my class had caused some trouble.When I came here the day before yesterday, I heard the students in another dormitory discussing something, "Go to Yang Ming to ask for clarification. Let's see what he has to say", and ended up coming here today.It was really puzzling that someone was looking for that Yang Ming again.

for that student.He also had a little impression, the entrance grades were above average, the personality was not bad, and the face was a bit handsome.But wouldn't it be because of his appearance that he attracted so many followers?

With this suspicion in mind, the young counselor knocked on the door, saw the students inside got up one after another, and after saying hello with a little restraint, he directly asked a few girls: "Why, are you also Came here to find Yang Ming? Can you tell me what it is for?"

As a result, the girls who seemed a little cautious because they met their counselors in the boys' dormitory all of a sudden became more hesitant.Seeing this situation, the counselor couldn't help being a little puzzled. Could it be that the little girl lost self-control after she got to college, so she wanted to fall in love or something?I heard that some boys were also asking Yang Ming before, did they ask for these girls?

Although generally speaking, the school does not have mandatory regulations on the emotional issues of students, but it is well known that people who engage in it right after the start of school are vigorous and vigorous, which is a bit too much.If that's the case, then it's not good. After Yang Ming and the others come back, I have to talk to him.As an instructor, he can understand a pure love affair in college, but you can't make the battle so big?If it was reported to the college leaders, what would the higher-ups think of these students, and how would they think of themselves?

……

Yang Ming didn't know at the moment that he had already encountered an indiscriminate disaster, and he was actually shot while lying down.At the moment, he is explaining earnestly to a molecular materials professional brother he met on the Internet: "It's really not an internal relationship. My cousin takes care of me. This pet is a batch of game gold cards issued by their Yangyi Culture. A gift package. And it’s not directly for the ‘God’s Favor’, but to be a character first, not to mention that the task is difficult to pass, even if it is completed, it may not be my reward. Well, my cousin has finished the task , The pet I got is just an ordinary Bobby, it really depends on luck."

After listening to Yang Ming's explanation, the molecular materials senior who knew his dorm room buddies because they played "Stone Age" together on the Internet, nodded suddenly and depressed: "So that's how it is!"

But then he shook his head and said with emotion: "It's not fair, at least you who have a game gold card have one more chance than us, you can try your luck anyway."

But the emotion is the emotion, people can get the game gold card, they have the ability, who let me not have a relative who runs a game company?So after lying behind Yang Ming and admiring the other's cool pet for a while, he could only shake his head and return to his seat.

Just as Yang Ming breathed a sigh of relief over there, he heard the brothers in the next dormitory yelling: "Da Yang, come here quickly, I have a task here, help me fight this monster!"

Damn, are you using your brother as a nanny?Call me for everything!After hearing the greeting from my roommate.Yang Ming wailed immediately, as for the elation of getting this pet just two days ago.It has long been thrown out of the sky.

……

"After three days of official public testing, the peak number of real-time online users has now exceeded 11. This time period appeared at around 7:05 last night. The average number of online users has also reached 30, basically in the From [-]:[-] to ten o'clock in the evening, it was very stable..." Listening to Zhan Chonghui's report, Yang Yi and Rogo looked at each other, and they both saw a look of satisfaction in each other's eyes.

But immediately, Rogo returned to his original nature: "The situation is good, Lao Zhan. I don't see any problems during the public beta. The main thing is to ensure the stable operation of the server. However, the strength of our technical team is still relatively strong. Excellent. The rest of the emergency response in the game and the daily affairs of the department are up to you. I have confidence in you... In this way, I still have some things to do today, so let's take a step first, and you two can decide on other issues Just like..."

"Can there be anything, Brother Luo, do you remember that you want to play games when you go back? You are so excited to play games. Does your family know?" Yang Yi couldn't understand the fat man's intentions. After the technical team added a special task plot during the public beta to meet his requirements for cheating in the open.I've been busy playing around in the game these days.Originally, one account could only use the big gift package once, but he insisted on registering more than 20 accounts for the god-level pets rewarded by the mission.I was immersed in the game for three or four days in a row.

Luo Ge didn't mean to be embarrassed at all when Yang Yi exposed his carelessness.On the contrary, he smiled cheekily: "Since you all know, then I don't need to say more? Don't worry. I'll just play for a few days, and when things in Yuezhou are settled, I won't have time to play any more. "Throwing this sentence, the fat man flashed out with a calm face, leaving Yang Yi and Zhan Chonghui with black lines all over their heads.

"Yang Dong, the setting of this game package..."

Yang Yi also knew what Zhan Chonghui was worried about, waved his hand and smiled and said: "It's nothing, you also know that the probability of getting good rewards by doing tasks is actually not high, and it does not affect the game balance at all. Besides, after the public beta, we can The proportion of players who get the highest rewards can be used to further fine-tune the data. Of course, after the official operation, the data can no longer be changed casually.”

The results of "Stone Age" have far exceeded Yang Yi's expectations. He is not very clear about the specific situation of the online game market in his previous life, but he is very clear that in this pioneering period of online games, any one can break through. A game with an average online audience of [-] is considered a success.Because there was an investigation report on "Legend" in the previous life, and the data of several other games of the same period were also attached by the way--"Red Moon", "Dragon Race", and "Millennium", which were once regarded as a generation of wasteland pioneers, were nothing but all. The average number of online users has just passed [-] to [-], and even this number is enough to ensure that the agent is profitable, so "Stone Age" broke through [-] online on the first day of the public beta, so what is there to be dissatisfied with?

In addition, he introduced "Stone Age" to the mainland market nearly a year earlier than in his previous life, and in terms of marketing, Yangyi Culture also invested regardless of cost, so it can be said that the current "Stone Age" is a Chinese online game An out-and-out first popular masterpiece.Although there was "King of Kings" testing the waters in the mainland before, but because the agency was not strong enough, Yang Yi estimated that the latter was at most similar to the performance of the previous life, and definitely not as influential as "Stone Age" .

In comparison with this player base, he was stalked by Rogo, and finally agreed to the technical team to add such a batch of game gold cards.But just like what he said, three thousand gold cards, that is, three thousand accounts that can receive special missions, and the chances of obtaining god-level pets and artifact equipment in the end are less than one percent, even with a literal Calculated by comprehension, it is like thirty players can win a game, and the impact on the entire game environment is completely insignificant.

Well, Fatty Luo can't be included. This fellow has opened more than 20 accounts, and then got the favor of God. I have to say that his luck is quite unnatural.

After hearing what Yang Yi said, Zhan Chonghui didn't care about anything anymore, although he was also quite critical of Rogo's approach-how can a big boss of a company go through the back door for himself and specialize in the game he operates? of?It's a little too unprofessional.But fortunately, the other party's request was not too much, and he didn't say to get him a full-level account directly.Then go in and beat the kids madly, so after Yang Yi spoke.He no longer cares about this matter.

After watching Rogo leave, Zhan Chonghui's attention immediately returned to his work: "According to the statistics of our operation department. In fact, the number of players has maintained a slow but steady growth, which is an upward parabola. If this momentum If it can be maintained, then one week later, that is, ten days after the game's official beta test, the total number of registered players will exceed 15, and the number of real-time online players during peak hours should reach about 13. Here comes the second test."

"Is the data prediction reliable?" Yang nodded, but he didn't look too happy.After all, I have seen 67 simultaneous online players in "Legend of Blood" and even 271 million simultaneous online players in "Journey to the West". Although the current 13 players are also very powerful, they lack such a shocking feeling after all. .

Zhan Chonghui saw that Yang Yi faced this kind of performance forecast with an older boss who might have jumped up and overjoyed, but he was still calm. Although he knew that his boss was not an ordinary person, but But still can't help giving birth to a strange feeling, as if what he is facing is not a child of seventeen or eighteen years old.But a monster with a mature and sane soul.But he quickly suppressed this feeling, and then affirmed: "Absolutely reliable, because the data I selected are the most conservative data, 100% can be achieved. As for how much can exceed this expectation in the end. We saw the actual situation at that time.”

Yang Yi hummed, but still didn't have much outward expression, he just told the other party lightly: "This data is indeed good. At least compared to our only competitor now, the situation is not bad. But there is one thing we must always pay attention to. Keep in mind. Before the game is officially charged, no matter how good the results are, you can’t take it too seriously. How to convert existing players into paying players as much as possible is something you have to think about.”

"Stone Age" can achieve the current results, first of all, it has taken advantage of the "Mountain Creator". Although "King of Kings" is ahead of them in the domestic market, but because the latter is strictly speaking, it can only It is a graphic mud, and its fluency is not as good as that of the Stone Age, and the other party's investment in servers and broadband is far less than that of Yang Yi Culture, so the agent may be satisfied with the current results, but Yang Yi can't see it. The ones that are not eye-catching, and the players are not very eye-catching.At least the comparison of the number of users currently owned by the two is a good illustration of this point.But even so, boys are not very sure about paying to play a game.

If "Stone Age" is replaced with "Legend", his confidence will be much higher.

Zhan Chonghui is also very aware of this, so he quickly restrained his emotions and turned to be cautious and solemn: "All the staff in our game department are also aware of this, so please rest assured Director Yang, we will definitely do a good job in this aspect Work."

He came to Yangyi Culture to pursue his own career. Now that the boss has built such a broad platform for himself, and the external environment is good, how can he not work hard once again?

……

Yang Yi himself doesn't have a good feeling about "Stone Age", but obviously the outside world doesn't see it that way. Earlier on "Popular It", when the game's marketing had just started, there were comments against Yang Yi's culture. The action, made some predictions.But at that time, everyone's attention, even those who paid attention to the game industry, was focused on stand-alone games, so it didn't cause much discussion.

But when the public beta of "Stone Age" officially started and the data of the first phase was released, many people looked back at the previous report, and it was a bit like a "prophecy".

It's just something in the past, and the sensation it caused is limited after all, not as good as the instant reports. In the latest issue of "Computer News", on the sub-page of the front page, a comprehensive report about Yangyi Culture's operation of "Stone Age" was released Later, the industry began to focus more and more attention on this cultural company.

"Aiming at the layout of the online game market, Yangyi Culture is not the first to eat crabs, but it is the company with the most market vision and the most adequate preparations. Comparing the two online games currently on the domestic market, We can clearly know that "King of Kings" is not the opponent of "Stone Age". Perhaps in terms of game quality, the difference between the two is not too big, and the previous market response in Baodao is also similar. , but after arriving in the mainland, the gap between them is getting bigger and bigger..."

"Although there are also "King of Kings" agents who are not fully prepared and have insufficient expectations for the domestic market, but aside from these superficial factors, let us look deep into the interior of the two game operators, perhaps You can find more interesting things - when "King of Kings" was officially launched for public beta, it was difficult for ordinary people to get access to relevant information about this game, except for those hardcore netizens or experienced game fans. But looking at "Stone Age" in turn, the first time I learned about this game was when I went home at night and opened QQ, and accidentally found the game promotion advertisement on it..."

"Countless evidence proves that no matter what products Yangyi Culture makes, their marketing methods are superb. On this point, I don't think anyone can deny it. But there is also the most critical point, which is also the author's opinion from Yangyi Network. Insiders learned that their chairman, Yang Yi, is the most important reason for this game to be launched in the Chinese mainland and to meet the majority of players..." (to be continued...)
