Chapter 54: Devilish Smile
After confirming Xiao Yang's identity, Hou Ze said directly: "Hello, I am the GM of Haiyan Private Service, yesterday you recharged five thousand yuan twice, one of which did not arrive because of server problems, I called you this time to think..."
"Didn't you recharge it?" Xiao Yang seemed to find out.
Hou Ze was embarrassed for a while, although five thousand yuan is not a big money, but it is definitely not a small amount of money for anyone, and the person on the other side of the phone doesn't care about the five thousand yuan at all!
But I heard Xiao Yang say indifferently: "Forget it, forget it if you don't recharge, what's the matter with you calling?"
"I..."
Hou Ze was speechless for a while, and it took a long time to react:
"I called this time to ask, how should I return the 5,000 yuan to you, you can give me a bank card number of yours, and I will transfer it to you. Of course, if you still want to top up, then I can recharge you directly into your account, and I will compensate you accordingly. ”
Refund the money, or recharge the game to compensate?
The answer is obvious.
"Return the money.,Your private server is not interesting.,There are too many problems.,And it's not suitable for long-term games.,If I'm the boss.,I can't pull out this game and sell it.,It's too bad.。 Xiao Yang complained absently as he reported his bank card number.
On the other side, Hou Ze's heart was dripping blood.
He is so interested in Xiao Yang, which is naturally related to Xiao Yang's wealth, and the more important reason is that Xiao Yang is the first player who is willing to recharge such a large amount of money in Haiyan Legend!
I originally thought that this was my own Bole and fell in love with my own game, but I didn't expect it...
What kind of Bole is this, it's obviously a local tyrant who has a lot of money and no place to burn, and spends a lot of money, even if it's such an eye-catching game, people are still willing to recharge so much money in it.
At the same time, Hou Ze was also questioning in his heart.
Is your money really so bad?
There was no sound on the other end of the phone, Xiao Yang could guess Hou Ze's thoughts, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly:
"Of course, this game is not without merit, in fact, from my point of view, you private server producers still have a lot of potential, but unfortunately, he has too many problems and has entered a dead loop. ”
"What kind of loop?" Hou Ze was a little skeptical.
"He's too much in pursuit of better picture quality, too much in pursuit of new gameplay mechanics, but in fact that's the biggest problem. Xiao Yang said calmly: "This is the biggest problem of your game producers, in order to satisfy some of his perfect ideas, he overly ignores the player experience. ”
"Ignoring the player experience..."Hou Ze was already interested, and asked, "What do you mean..."
Xiao Yang said straightforwardly: "The network problem is your big problem, your server is too poor, the first thing to improve should be your server, and then your optimization, there is no need to add so many miscellaneous things, you can reduce some things accordingly, and reduce the burden on your clients." ”
"This..."
Hou Ze was embarrassed.
The server is a big problem, but if you want to rent a good server, you need a lot of money, although he is a skilled worker in the mine, but in fact, the salary is not too much, and it is basically impossible to get a good server with that salary.
However, ignoring the problem of the server, Hou Ze was very interested in what Xiao Yang said about reducing the burden on the client, and couldn't help asking: "What do you mean by reducing the burden on the client?"
"Who are the players you're targeting with this game?" Xiao Yang asked rhetorically.
"Targeted players..."
Hou Ze frowned slightly, this is not a secret, and said directly at the moment: "Those who are still playing legends are basically the same people who have played the official server before, everyone used to go to school and secretly go to the Internet café to surf the Internet, but now that the past few years have passed, most of them have already started to work, so there are more office workers, and many of them are playing games in the company during working hours." ”
That's what legends are for.
Before the rebirth, the legendary private server was able to be on the profit list, the main reason is that these office workers, many of them like to reminisce about the classic games of the past after becoming successful people, and with economic strength, it naturally gives people a feeling of spending money.
It's not that their taste is too bad, it's that feelings exist.
Xiao Yang smiled:
"Since you have said that your game is aimed at office workers, there is naturally no problem, but have you ever thought that not everyone has their own work room, many people play games quietly, your game client is so big, it takes me at least half an hour to download, such a long time, who has the patience to wait?"
"This..."Hou Ze's eyes suddenly lit up.
It seemed that he understood why Xiao Yang said that he didn't think about the player.
He put too much energy into the Petrel Saga thinking about how to change the game mechanics and how to make the scene look more beautiful, but he ignored the fact that every feature he added actually increased the load on the client, and at the same time increased the pressure on the server!
"Moreover, now that you know the target group of this game, you should know that no one likes to be found playing games at work, have you ever thought about adding a certain feature so that you don't have to worry about being bumped into when you go to work to play games?" Xiao Yang once again put forward a suggestion that was extremely attractive to Hou Ze.
Add a feature so that you don't have to worry about being bumped into when you go to work and play games?
Is there still such a feature?
"Can... Can you tell me, what should I do?" Hou Ze couldn't help but ask, full of anticipation.
But Xiao Yang smiled: "This is a trade secret, of course you can't talk about it casually!"
This...
For a while, Hou Ze had a black line on his head.
This feeling is like taking a stunning beauty to homeinn, but the pants are taken off, and the beauty says that she is coming to the big aunt, and she will play cards tonight?
Made!
But on the other side, Xiao Yang had already smiled, and seeing that Hou Ze's appetite had been completely fished, Xiao Yang finally said:
"Actually, I don't mean to say this, the most important thing is your server problem. I'm very optimistic about the legendary private server, and I'm also very interested in your private server maker, so you can help me bring him a message. ”
"If he wants to turn this hobby into a career, then come to me. ”
"I'm willing to invest. ”
"And I'm willing to give him some of the best advice!"
Hanging up the phone, the corners of Xiao Yang's mouth had already hooked up a demonic smile.
From beginning to end, he did not break Hou Ze's identity, which can be regarded as giving Hou Ze a space to consider. But Xiao Yang actually knew very well in his heart that Hou Ze would eventually contact him, and this time would definitely not be too long.
Looking at the splendor of the Haiyan legend, in fact, many things can be seen.
Hou Ze is a very low-key person, he has rarely appeared in public, he created Haiyan private clothes, at first it was just a hobby, and Haiyan private clothes have always been so hanging. But after that, Hou Ze chose to resign, used the 20,000 yuan he saved and the money he had borrowed so hard to start a business, and finally became a big man in the legendary private service industry.
In a limited interview, Hou Ze once talked about the experience of starting a business in front of the camera, and even joked that if someone was willing to give him 100,000 yuan to invest at that time, he would definitely work for others unceremoniously.
There is a joke element in this sentence, but it also makes people see that Hou Ze was really short of money at that time.
In fact, in the early days when Haiyan Private Service officially broke through the peak of the click-through rate, Hou Zedu has been very short of money, because he has resigned, in order to save expenses, he even found a job as a hotel waiter, in order to make some extra money, and then because he stayed up late to play games, he was fired by the hotel manager.
