Even if this kind of hardcore game masterpiece has players' active word-of-mouth promotion, it is difficult to compare with PC online games and mobile games that cater to the novice market.
Hearing this, Liu Kun closed his eyes and thought for a while: "What Boss Zhao means is to turn the original time payment of card points into an invisible charging model for potion replenishment.
If players are reluctant to recharge point cards, they can also buy some potion supplies to replenish blood and mana by defeating low-level monsters and accumulating game currency dropped in the game. Generally speaking, the currency dropped in the game can only maintain Lower consumption levels for players.
So, when players conquer difficult monsters, they either need to recharge to buy potions, or they can provide high-end players with a demonstration of their operating skills? "
"That's right!" Zhao Han laughed, "Moreover, I plan to weaken the role of levels for the most basic game players. In the early stage, the first 50 levels may be very useful, but in the later stage, simply practicing levels will result in very limited improvement.
Get rid of the original boring and repetitive, cookie-cutter route of upgrading and killing monsters, improving the player's level, and becoming stronger.
It's about adventures... that is, secrets that are obtained randomly.For high-level monsters, the higher the level, the higher the probability of dropping cheat codes.
Players do not need to encounter adventures, and all they can learn are the basic skills of various martial arts schools. For example, if the player chooses the Huashan School, then.Huashan Sword Technique, Huashan Light Kung Fu, Huashan Boxing Technique, Huashan Internal Kung Fu, etc., you can learn the basic martial arts of the sect by completing a series of sect mission tests.
The number of martial arts a player can learn is limited. Suppose he can only learn 20 types. If he wants to learn others, he can only abolish one type of martial arts.
If you abolish one skill and add experience to other skills, you can only get 5.00% to [-]% of the experience value.
In short, the skills mastered by each player may be different. The initial skills may be discarded and more advanced skills obtained through other adventures may be practiced, and more advanced skills require more experience points.
Cheats are difficult to obtain and difficult to improve.However, once you have mastered a skill, the bonus effect will be much stronger than the original rubbish skill.
I think this is more in line with the setting of Jin Yong Jianghu.
Secrets of magical skills are far more powerful than how many years of debut in the martial arts world or how many years of junk martial arts you have practiced.
Magic secrets are better than the character’s basic level! "
"I generally agree with Mr. Zhao!" Liu Kun understood that Wen Wen Jingjing's company was the financier's father.
Not only did it provide the copyright for Jin Yong's martial arts novels, but it also provided funds for the development of games.
According to Liu Kun's idea, 600 million funds are more than enough to develop games.It seems that game development is mainly about labor costs.
As for Liu Kun's company, even if it does not develop games, its annual labor and office costs are no less than 200 million yuan.
Developing a game means adding some expenses. For a 2D game, a budget of 500 million is enough.
As for the more expensive game operation and promotion, this is done by Wenwen Jingjing Company.Liu Kun is very satisfied with this kind of cooperation. The money belongs to the sponsor's father.The troublesome operation belongs to the funder’s father too!
And Pixel Software paid 40% of the secondary equity, as well as manpower and material resources to develop Jin Yong's martial arts online game!
Do you want to say whether you are willing or not?
nonsense!
Of course I would!
Even if the sponsor doesn't give money, they are still willing to develop Jin Yong's martial arts online games.
However, Pixel Software Company was an unknown company before and did not have the courage to go to Jin Yong to buy the copyright of martial arts novels.
just now……
The big boss bought the copyright and entrusted its development. It was a win-win situation.
As for the suggestions made by the boss, they are reasonable and not nonsense.
At least, Liu Kun dares to assert that Mr. Zhao Han knows Jin Yong’s martial arts and may be a hardcore gamer!
The setting planning of martial arts games is no less than my own.
His understanding of game commercialization is several levels higher than that of Liu Kun.
They are those who make stand-alone to online games. They have made so many games and gained a lot of reputation, but they have not made any money.
This made Liu Kun understand that people like him can make games, but they cannot operate them commercially.
If they had such business acumen, "Sword and Sword OL" would have made a fortune. Otherwise, the game was handed over to Sohu for operation. Then, Sohu made random changes. The originally balanced game settings were changed to A free money-making game.
There is no problem with free krypton gold. The problem is that Sohu has not made good changes and has changed a lot of places that had a good reputation.
In contrast, Boss Zhao from Wenwen Jingjing Company knows more about games than the Sohu guys!
Chapter 382: Laying out the Game Industry
Monday, October 3.
Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company and Zhao Han himself quietly invested in Beijing Pixel Software Company and obtained 40% of the equity of Pixel Software Company.
Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company exchanged 400 million yuan in cash and the game copyright of "Swordsman" for 30% of the equity, and Zhao Han himself received 200% of the equity for 10 million yuan in cash.
After both parties confirm the contract and complete the process.
The 600 million from Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company was quickly transferred to the account of Pixel Software.
Subsequently, the shareholder who changed the company's industrial and commercial registration, Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company, sent Cheng Xue, who was nominally studying but actually supervising the financial work.
After Cheng Xueren passed away, he served as the financial director of Pixel Software Company. He had the right to know all kinds of accounts.
In addition, Cheng Xue will visit the capital and hang up a sign for the Beijing branch of Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company.
The main business of the Beijing Branch at this stage is cooperation with Pixel Software.In addition, we are recruiting game development-related talents in nearby Beijing. After the talents are recruited, they are sent to Pixel Software Company for training.
After completing your studies, you can stay at Pixel Software, and you are welcome to return to Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company.
"Comrade Cheng Xue!"
Zhao Han held his hand and said, "The capital has the largest number of universities and is the most important talent pool in the country!
If we don't go to Beijing to open a company for recruitment, we will lose a lot of talents.Every year, there are less than 10 domestic undergraduate coders!
Excellent code farmers in Beijing account for 3% of the country’s supply of code farmers, which must supply at least [-] people!Peking University, Tsinghua University, and a bunch of colleges and universities are established in the capital.
In addition to programmers, game artists, music, and other talents in all aspects are very important.
What you have to do is to build a good relationship with Pixel Software and let it cooperate with us to help us cultivate game development talents.
In short, I hope that the game development of "Swordsman" will not only be a high-quality online game, but also expand the team from one team to a team that can develop two games.
When recruiting people, you need them to really love games and Jin Yong’s martial arts.If you don’t have passion, you can’t develop good products! "
Many Jin Yong dramas are well-produced, mainly due to the many early directors, screenwriters, actors and the entire film and television team, including a large number of martial arts fans and Jin Yong fans.
The more fans you have, the easier it will be to produce good works.
Later, some Jin Yong dramas were not filmed well, as you can tell by looking at the actors. Later, some of the actors had never even watched Jin Yong's martial arts. They were so insincere and did not understand the plot and characters, so the filming was naturally poor.
The success of MiHoYo was largely due to its founding team's love for Two-dimensional.
This kind of love has led to the quality of its games, which is indeed not comparable to those mediocre game teams who are just for work and making money.
The essence of literary and artistic creation is that if you want to do a good job, you must first love it!If you don’t love it, it will be difficult to produce quality products.
A team you love will always have a slightly different flavor than a team you don't love.
Just like the Pixel Software team, they designed unique combat animations and moves that are similar to arcade strikes. In fact, only hardcore game enthusiasts will pay attention to the details. In the end, they created a game with a different texture.
Although Pixel Software has not truly grown into a top-level game development team in its history, Zhao Han has no doubt about its strength.
Many players applauded its game, which is enough to show its intentions.
The main reason why pixel software has not become popular is because of insufficient commercialization capabilities.
Which group of gamers do more?male!
Later, miHoYo understood this truth. Therefore, Two-dimensional male players are the main players, and by studying the preferences of Two-dimensional users, it is naturally easy to make popular games.
Of course, the preferences of gamers are not necessarily just Two-dimensional, there are other subdivisions, and martial arts is also a hugely influential audience.
The IP of Jin Yong's novels has gone through the original martial arts novels, slow revisions, film and television dramas, and even a large number of fan adaptations.
It can be said that its influence has exceeded that of IP in the general sense.
Therefore, the effect of the game development quality of Pixel Software, coupled with an IP like "Swordsman", must be a multiplier of its game influence.
After the game is launched, and with more publicity and promotion, Zhao Han thinks it will probably be a hit.
Because the time for online game layout is not too late, on the contrary, it has just started.
Take "World of Warcraft," the hit game in the PC era, as an example. After the national server was launched in public beta in 2005, the number of players reached 50 in the initial stage.
By 2007, the number of registered players in the Chinese server of "Warcraft" was 350 million. In 2008, at its peak, the number of domestic simultaneous online players exceeded 100 million.
Later, in 2016, its daily active users reached 200 million.After that, it started to decline, and it still maintained a daily activity of one million.
It wasn't until later that Blizzard was so embarrassed that it shut down the server completely because it couldn't agree on interests with NetEase.
In fact, the lifespan of "Warcraft" has not really come to an end. It can only be said that Blizzard has gotten worse and worse.
In addition, the game adapted from Jin Yong's martial arts was later verified by Sohu Changyou Company and was extremely successful.
Originally, Sohu Changyou Company had always been tepid in making games. Basically, they only made one game and another one that was cool.
Until "Dragon Babu", not long after it was launched, it already had 40 online at the same time. It was the new game in 2007.
Later, the highest number of online users of "Dragon Movie" exceeded 84.
In the PC era, it is one of the top ten most popular online games.
Most of the online games that are more powerful than "Tian Long Ba Bu" are monopolized by Goose Factory and Pig Factory.
In the PC era, the top four players with more than 300 million simultaneous online players are all from Goose Factory.
More than 200 million games, a pig factory.One is operated by Giant Company.
Among the million-dollar hits online, "Audition" and "Asked" are not goose-pig.
In other words, except for three popular online games in the PC era, the others are neither goose nor pig.
Then, Sohu Changyou has been gnawing on the IP of "Dragon Movie" for more than ten years, and it is also a very profitable evergreen tree.
This is the power of IP!
As for "Legend of Blood", its peak simultaneous online games was roughly in 04, reaching 67, ranking 20th among the most popular online games in the domestic PC era.
In a sense, "Legend" is also a beginning.Later, there were actually 19 PC online games that were stronger than "Legend".
However, most of those popular PC online games are run by Goose Factory and Pig Factory.
When Zhao Han arrived, he felt a passion for being one of three people in the world.
Changing the two-strong structure of Goose Factory and Pig Factory and becoming one of the top three is actually not impossible if you think about it carefully. It is nothing more than grabbing traffic with one hand and good games with the other.
Chapter 383: I have been wandering for half my life, only regretting that I have never met my master.
Cheng Xue can be considered an old employee who joined Wenwen Jingjing's company.Well, it took me ten months to join the job.
After graduating from the second university and joining the company, he was mainly responsible for the financial business.
Basically, he is a hard-working person with good professional skills and... no corruption.
Zhao Han doesn't need to be imprisoned for his boss's accounting and finance duties. The main reason is that he behaves fairly and aboveboard and pays attention to compliance in everything.
Compliance is actually a good thing. With a strong awareness of compliance in various businesses, it will be easier to clean up and avoid various hidden dangers in the company's internal governance.
Companies that like to engage in some crooked practices use dishonest and aboveboard means to obtain benefits externally, but their internal atmosphere is not healthy. In the long run, even if they are not legally compromised, they will collapse due to poor internal governance.
After bidding farewell to Zhao Han, Cheng Xue quickly followed Pixel Software and his team to the capital.
I visited the headquarters of Pixel Software Company and chatted with everyone.
Cheng Xueluo said generously: "As the financial officer sent by Wenwen Jingjing Technology Company, I don't want to interfere with your operations and game development.
I believe that our goals are the same, which is to develop a good game that will sell well.
"Swordsman" is not only an online game, it also embodies our common hope!
If this game is completed, it means that there is another very powerful game company in the local area, which will change the current domestic game market. Kimchi online games occupy the majority of the market, and Eagle Sauce Blizzard's "World of Warcraft" attracts countless attention...
"The Swordsman" is a martial arts-themed game. I think this game can well represent the aesthetics of the flower gardener culture.
After this game is made, I hope it will be a good game that players will exclaim, "It's so awesome."
It's not just a game that after it came out, it was dismissed as a garbage game that ruined the original "Swordsman"!
On the premise of making a good game, I fully support everyone’s reasonable expenses!
There are two paths in front of us, and making a rubbish game will not make any splash.Another way is to come up with a hit "Swordsman"!Gain a reputation similar to that of Blizzard!
At that time, our Pixel Software will be a world-famous game company, and I believe that everyone, shareholders and developers, will receive huge returns. "
The Pixel Software team gave Cheng Xue, the investor’s representative, warm applause.
