In Plague Inc., the virus does not spread on its own, and can only spread to the rest of the world after people in the area are infected and travel to other countries. The virus itself can evolve, the more people the virus infects, the more virus points the player will get, and then point out more vicious pathogenic genes on the talent tree, making the virus less likely to be detected by doctors, with a higher lethality rate and faster spread.

Some plague types are bought for money, which is the game's revenue model. The latent attribute is also very important, because once doctors detect the virus before it breaks out, they will make vaccines, isolate epidemic areas, etc., so that the virus is stillborn. Then there is the difficulty selection, with the most difficult doctors never leaving work and enforcing the strictest quarantine standards.

Peeling off all the packaging, the on-hook mechanism can be split into two lines, the first is growth, and the second is expansion. Growth is manually operated by the player + random, the system will sometimes give the plague random growth in the AFK map, or even the growth that the player doesn't want, you have to spend points to go back, and the expansion path and destination are completely random.

Zhao Jie's team looked at Uncle Sheng's outline and found that there were many Jianghu forces in "Wudao Faint King", and this gang and that faction were so-and-so, so they turned the blind Jaguar of "Plague Company" into the following setting.

There is certainly no difficulty selection in the online game mode, and the difficulty is integrated into the game exploration line. The player takes on the role of a small shrimp in the rivers and lakes, selects the birth sect gang to become a disciple in the given map, and then starts to hang up. What you get by hanging up is martial arts potential. Then players can get the martial arts fragment or the entire martial arts cheats through gameplay, spending money to buy and hang up and dropping, etc., and then consume the potential to learn the above moves, and even break through to the second and third stages to obtain new skill effects for fighting.

The consumed martial arts potential will be converted into player experience, which will be used to increase the level and improve the basic attributes. This level is very important, because if Xiao Ximi wants to be promoted in the sect, the level is a necessary condition. The sufficient condition is to complete the battle designated by the sect, expand the territory and increase the influence of the sect, the larger the territory, the richer the variety of props dropped by the hang-up, and if the battle is lost, it may also lose the teacher and humiliate the country, and the sect will shrink.

Hanging up not only increases the potential to drop martial arts, but also drops other props, such as practice room ornaments to increase efficiency, etc., which require players to often clear their backpacks online, which are all regular gameplay. The core gameplay of this game is cheats, fragments, moves, and the corresponding core battles, which is also what makes Chu Yuanxi frown.

According to the planning document submitted by Zhao Jie's team, each move of the player should be represented as a set of actions in the art, corresponding to the last move in the martial arts cheats. There is only one move in the martial arts fragment, and the cheats are synthesized from the fragments of the same series, and the number of tricks is an important judgment mark for whether a set of cheats is awesome or not, because after more tricks, you can also trigger combos.

Players can only have a cheats or fragments on their bodies, and they cannot be manually controlled during the battle, and the characters switch between flat slashes and moves according to logic to form a realistic combat performance. Just for this combat performance, a character is afraid that he will not have to do more than a hundred sets of actions, but also provide several different initial roles for players to choose from, Chu Yuan Xixin said You are a small game? This amount of resources plus map and plot resources is not small at all.

This is the basic framework, and then putting the plot on this framework is the final performance of Zhao Jie's team, and the player's sect and gang will trigger the plot according to the player's level after the expansion of the power of the gang to certain areas of the map. Even to bring it to count a piece, Chu Yuanxi feels that the coffin board planned by the resources will not be able to hold down, this pile of content is more suitable to play an APP package, is it too wishful thinking to be a small game?

Unexpectedly, Zhao Jie Zhenzhen had a word, saying that in the 5G era of cloud games, this amount of resources is nothing at all, and he almost didn't make Chu Yuanxi's nose crooked......

"I'll go to your uncle, do you know what 5G is? Cloud games in the 5G era are mainly those games that require a lot of CPU and GPU computing, move the computing to the cloud, you don't need any computing at all, okay? You can calculate the transmission efficiency of the server client in the 3G era, aren't they all special short links? What the hell are you talking about 5G?"

But after the number of Zhao Jie is over, Chu Yuanxi is also a little difficult, because this plan is actually okay in terms of wisdom, although it is a tribute to the plague company at the root, but after the packaging, ordinary people can't see it, and it feels like a pretty good idle game.

Therefore, if you reject it with a wave of the pen, it is not old and appropriate, and it belittles the intellectual achievements of Zhao Jie's team. And today's players are very performance-oriented, if there are a total of seven or eight actions, no matter what martial arts are performed, it will really get tired of watching it for a long time.

The only problem now is that it is not suitable for making an H5 game, let alone a WeChat mini-game sequence, and can only be made into an independent game like "This is Xiuxian".

So the problem can actually be summarized as, how to make this independent game spread in large numbers on WeChat, that is, it is easy to pick up WeChat's wool, and WeChat is also used to it, but independent games are not. If you can't get wool, then the original intention of relying on games to promote IP will be violated.

This is the office area of the Ba people, Wang Le is also there, seeing that Chu Yuanxi is deep in thought, he put the teacup soaked with wolfberries on the table, and said, "Mr. Chu, are you thinking about the problem of WeChat communication?"

"Isn't that right? I must have thought about the logic first. ”

"It's simple, Mr. Chu, we don't need to spread the four small games on WeChat, and you're not afraid of making WeChat a bald skin?" Wang Le laughed, "We can buy volume." I support the promotion of IP by games, but as long as the game is popular, there are more people who play it, and you can promote IP, right? ”

Chu Yuanxi couldn't help but nod fiercely, and found that he had indeed drilled the horns. Undoubtedly, WeChat wool is the most cost-effective way to become popular, but it is not the only way, there are so many traditional games that are popular, there are various ways.

The orthodox play of idle games, scientific name idle games, has always relied on improving game quality, numerical tuning, etc. to improve the retention rate, relying on advertising or in-app purchases to generate profits, and relying on the promotion of hard bridges and hard horses in terms of purchases. As long as you can maintain the positive cycle mode, you can continue to play, and there are many very successful works, which record a lot of profits and get a large number of users, after all, the ARPU value of idle games must be relatively low, relying on a large number of active users.

Therefore, Chu Yuanxi's conclusion was: "It's not impossible to say this, but your group's numerical planning has to work hard." Let's do this and make it an independent APP to buy volume, which is definitely different from the numerical points of ordinary idle games. Our goal is different from others, how to charge and have to polish it, but we can't do without internal purchases, and players are unhappy without internal purchases, OK?"

"I remember this, we didn't accept a single advertisement, didn't our only goal be active? Zhao Jie said hahahaha and laughed like a sand sculpture.

The logic of making money in idle games at present generally lies in the two options of recharging players and watching advertisements at numerical nodes that are difficult for players to grind. In the past, there was only one option to recharge, how to become stronger without recharging, but this will cause a lot of loss, but now with advertising, players don't have to spend money to spend time, not only the loss is saved but also to create income for the game, so it has quickly become the standard of mini games. And the purpose of the game is not pure, and it is necessary to break this standard.

So Chu Yuanxi's requirement is actually that there can't be no numerical nodes, and it is not enough for the whole game to lose its challenge without numerical nodes;

Of course, it has an extremely simple solution, which is to replace ads with letting players share on WeChat. It's just that none of the three people mentioned this plan, because this is a plan that will inevitably be hacked to death by Father Long.

So for Zhao Jie, this game really makes him feel painstaking, not to mention that an idle mobile game is very tiring to do, even the plot has to use his own brain, Uncle Sheng only provides an outline, and provides some triggerable events according to the timeline, and the game plot on his side has to be used to communicate with Uncle Sheng repeatedly, as if he is doing an island country IP, the island country IP adaptation game, the most annoying thing is that all the content has to be repaired by the IP side, and Jaguar can't do it blindly.

After dealing with Zhao Jie's affairs, Chu Yuanxi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and it was a fulfilling Sunday.

Wednesday of the following week is the day that Chu Yuanxi has been waiting for for a long time, and it is also Lu Yu's deadline, the 5th Global Robot Conference in Yizhuang on August 21.

This is a truly global conference, with more than 200 universities, scientific research institutions and robot high-tech enterprises around the world, more than 700 robots on display, and several plates, but Chu Yuanxi only cares about the commercial robot sector. It's a pity that Boston Dynamics, the world's brightest robot star company, did not come, which made the conference slightly discolored.

The robots in the meeting, Chu Yuanxi was very simple and rudely divided into three categories, practical robots, money-pit robots, and eyeball robots.

The so-called practical type is the logistics warehousing robots and supporting facilities from Goudong and Meituan, as well as various hotel and restaurant service robots, especially the unmanned warehousing and logistics system of Goudong to make Chuyuanxi stop.

The system is fully integrated from sorting to distribution, with a variety of automated guided vehicles, multi-axle robotic arms, unmanned stacking forklifts, multi-directional shuttles and three-dimensional shelves forming a complete set of futuristic inventory transportation system. Compared with the unmanned warehousing solution provided by Ares Technology that was originally planned to be introduced and vetoed by Chu Yuanxi, it feels more practical.

At the beginning, the main reason for rejecting that plan was that the other party put forward a request for strategic cooperation, and Gou Dong, Chu Yuanxi asked, and directly provided a solution, Ding is Ding Mao is Mao, and he did not carry any private goods, so he was moved. It just so happened that Wang Yinyu signed the contract, so the construction of the forward base could begin.

The so-called pit money type is a variety of educational robots, which is also the proper meaning of the question. Although in Chu Yuanxi's opinion, these things are of no use to children, just like the low cost performance and low practicability of various educational products that have been staring at the wallets of children's parents for a long time, but it is not negotiable. What's more, putting on such a tall coat as a robot and a sense of the future is very helpful for children to improve their zhuangbility strength.

Lu Yu came with Chu Yuanxi, and then set his eyes on eyeball products, and at the same time found that his needs were too conservative.

During this time, he was both a father and a mother, and he had to cooperate with Zhu Xiao to make a few small game IP-related videos and then operate and promote them on the self-media, and he had to personally check and sort out the robot-related needs, so as to realize Chu Yuanxi's new idea of using robots as the core of the video to attract fans, in order to get out the list of needs, his hair was a little gray, so he was verbally praised by Chu Yuanxi.

Why did he get verbal praise? Because his needs mainly mentioned movement and regular appearance, and did not use his imagination. Of course, Boston Dynamics' robot can do gymnastics and jump 360 degrees on the spot, which is very awesome from the perspective of difficulty in realization, but it lacks impact when used to shoot video products, and only those who know how can see it.

At the Yizhuang conference, there were bird robots, either drone propellers or real bird appearances, flapping their wings and flying, and mechanical fish, colorful like groupers, which can really swim in the water.

The video made by this robot is shocking. For example, it is recorded in "Mozi-Lu Wen": "The male loser cuts bamboo and wood and thinks it is a magpie, and it does not take three days." "The legend that Luban's wooden bird can fly for three days has always been regarded as bragging, and today, it has come true!

This had to make Lu Yu change his needs on the spot at the conference. Fortunately, he has always been personally responsible for this matter, and he has various ideas and plans in his head, and at this time, he was stimulated by the robots on the scene, and he quickly reorganized the requirements, and then according to the new features collected on the spot, he came up with an enhanced version.

Although Chu Yuanxi felt that it was still not particularly perfect, it should be enough for Party B to not make a request to Party B on the scene. Robot companies are mainly based on toB business, and it should be commonplace to accept customization and listen to special requirements, first put forward the demand, and then change if there are new ideas in the future, let Lu Yu advance it in the most common way of Party A torturing Party B.

Standing in the venue of Yizhuang, Chu Yuanxi had to touch the scene, because last year's Spring Festival self-media conference, this year's Google Overseas Conference, are the same venue, the difference is that there are Fang Shiling in those two venues, but there is no today.

In fact, a few days ago, Chu Yuanxi found out that "Late Night Gallery" was recruiting, recruiting business, and recruiting advertising copywriting. Seeing this recruitment, he didn't know whether to be happy or sigh, obviously, this was the first problem encountered by Fang Shiling in the battle to make money to repay debts, and it was also an extremely acute problem.

To some extent, Ba Ren Information and "Late Night Gallery" have a similar problem, that is, it does not accept commercial advertisements. Chu Yuanxi once had a large number of advertising orders and quotations in his hands, and in the first quarter of last year, when Baren Entertainment was still young and in its infancy, these quotations were extremely tempting, especially when the company did not make money. I think Fang Shiling also had a similar period.

Therefore, it is easy to have an illusion, that is, Lao Tzu greets and receives advertisements, and there are a lot of advertising orders coming over anytime and anywhere. This kind of pleasure with confidence is intoxicating, in fact, Chu Yuanxi himself had such a feeling sometime last year, so he guessed that Fang Shiling also had a similar mentality.

But fortunately, Chu Yuanxi has a genius like Lu Yu here, and he thinks about making money, realizing it, and harvesting the commercial value of fans in his mind all the time. Therefore, when the advertisers in the self-media advertising market knew that Ba Ren did not take orders and no longer sent orders, Lu Yu had a sense of crisis, but Chu Yuanxi lacked this sense of crisis.

And Lu Yu is in the position of the number one person in the information of the Ba people, the key is that Chu Yuanxi allows him to make mistakes, at least small mistakes. According to Chu Yuanxi's words, "I can watch you make mistakes without reminding you, so that you can accept the painful lesson and grow", but whether he saw it or not, or didn't see it at all, Lu Yu couldn't say clearly.

Therefore, Lu Yu has done tests and simulations for more than half a year to take over the information of Ba Ren, and he has also reported the test results to Chu Yuanxi - it is definitely not as easy as your old man imagined!

Yes, there must be, but it's too difficult to get what you can tolerate. The so-called tolerable means that the price can be tolerated and the content can also be, the advertising price of the soil bee is easy to be satisfied, but the content is too special low, and the advertising content of the big factory is not forced, but let's not talk about the price, why should people send you such a good order?

The self-media advertising market is roughly divided into two kinds, the first is called the advertising platform, which is all standard advertising, basically based on advertisements similar to those of the earth bee, or similar to the yellow storm and undisciplined advertising of "Daughter-in-law", there is no lowest only lower, which is not suitable for large orders at all, and a large number of fans are lost after receiving it.

The other is called customized advertising, whether it is a large factory taking the initiative to find it, or doing self-media, first issue its own advertising offer on some platforms, expressing its willingness to undertake customized advertising, and then wait for Party A's father to come to the door. This is the advertising model that is suitable for the large number, and when the confusion was not offended, it was claimed that there were 800,000 advertisements, which is what it said, but it is not available every day.

The problem is that you have never taken an advertisement, you don't know how to be an advertisement, and there is no advertising ghost to write beautiful copywriting, and you don't know how much the conversion rate is and the purchase rate is, and the asking price is high...... There are so many hard-working marketing self-media in the market, the data has been good, and the business lady keeps communicating with Party A's fathers every day, and of course they are given good orders first.
