This is the first time Shen Xing has come into contact with Zhou Fangyuan's industry, she only knew that Zhou Fangyuan was more powerful than many of his peers, no, even more than many adults, and his few years of high school career had accumulated wealth that others might not be able to save in two or three lifetimes. But sometimes you won't have an intuitive feeling if you don't see it with your own eyes. It's like someone saying that I have tens of millions, but if tens of millions are not placed in front of me, to put it bluntly, it is just a bunch of numbers, and for ordinary people, the direct gap between tens of millions and thousands of dollars is not too big.

But if this money is exchanged for physical goods, it will be different, tens of millions can buy dozens of houses in small cities, can buy hundreds of ordinary private cars, if used to buy watermelons, can fit more than a dozen train wagons.

The same is true for these industries, even if Zhou Fangyuan said that he opened many companies, but he didn't see the company, and he didn't see his employees, it doesn't feel real enough, it's not that this thing is not real, but there is no intuitive sense, and it won't really impact the heart.

Shen Xing used to feel this way, although she knew that Zhou Fangyuan was very awesome, but how awesome it was, she didn't know very well.

It wasn't until she followed Zhou Fangyuan to the distant game tonight, saw this huge office area, saw the dozens of employees, and looked at everyone's respectful looks towards Zhou Fangyuan, that she realized for the first time that the boy she liked was already so good.

Zhou Fangyuan walked into the company with Shen Xing, Sun Wenlu happened to come out of the R&D department, and when he raised his eyes to see Zhou Fangyuan, he didn't react, and when he saw Shen Xing beside Zhou Fangyuan, the whole person couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"This is my brother and sister, oops, hello hello, I am a subordinate of Mr. Zhou, you can just call me Brother Sun. ”

Sun Fatzi stretched out his big fat hand and wanted to shake hands with Shen Xing, but Zhou Fangyuan blocked it with his hand.

"Your hands are full of oil, don't grease my star's hands too. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said deliberately funny.

"Don't talk nonsense, who is your ......"

Shen Xing shyly pinched Zhou Fangyuan, and then took the initiative to reach out and shake Sun Wenlu's hand.

"Hello Brother Sun, I'm not a brother or sister, I'm just an ordinary classmate of his, not as exaggerated as you say. ”

"No exaggeration, no exaggeration, Mr. Zhou, he has never brought a girl to the company, you are still the first, your relationship must be very close, don't look at me like this, I can never make a mistake in looking at people!"

Sun Wenlu said proudly.

"Okay, okay, you don't want to sell melons and boast, by the way, how is the game ready?

Zhou Fangyuan stopped Sun Wenlu, and then asked.

"It's all ready, now it's up to you to call the shots. ”

Sun Wenlu said.

"Then wait, if it's eight o'clock, it's definitely eight o'clock, by the way, has the Internet café system been automatically installed? ”

Zhou Fangyuan walked towards the office and asked as he walked.

"I asked once before on the Internet café system, and they have already completed the automatic transmission, and the update mechanism has been turned on, as long as we launch a new version here, the Internet café can start updating immediately. As for the number of downloads, we opened the download ten days ago, and the promotion is almost at the same time, and the installed base has exceeded 3 million so far, second only to Plants vs. Zombies. ”

Sun Wenlu said.

It's his main business, so he's always keeping an eye on the progress.

The installed base of 3 million is really a lot, and there are only a few mainstream games on the market at present, and most of the games have an installed base of around one million, and a large part of them are Internet café computers.

Of course,The legend of the distant game currently also covers a lot of Internet café computers,As long as it's an Internet café under the Internet café management system,All computers have been installed with the game,It's mandatory,Even if the Internet café quietly deletes itself, it's useless,As long as the company detects that the game login file doesn't exist,The download system will automatically restart。

However, Internet cafes generally don't care about this kind of thing, and for players, Internet cafes can always update the game as soon as possible, which is definitely the best game experience for them, at least they don't have to bother downloading it themselves.

Zhou Fangyuan took Shen Xing into the office and asked Shen Xing to play with the computer by himself, while he took Sun Wenlu to sit down on the sofa, and the two began to discuss the next development of the game.

"How are you discussing it now?about in-game events and preferential policies. ”

"In fact, we have been negotiating with Tengxun and Arri in the past few days, and the preliminary plan is like this, when the game is officially charged, if the player recharges through Q coins, we will give a certain discount, but this preferential policy is limited to 30 yuan point card, our idea is that 30 yuan of game point card, we can carry out a nine-percent discount, that is, if the player buys it, it only costs 27 yuan.

But relatively, we will not give any preferential treatment for the ten-yuan card, the ten-yuan card is too cheap, and our own profits are not high, so there is no need to give any more discounts.

And the same is true for Ali, the point card service we launched in the official flagship store is also a discount from the 30 yuan card, and the 10 yuan card is at most to provide a more convenient way. ”

"What about the physical card, how is it made?"

"The first batch has been made, and it has been delivered to the following Internet cafes, and the first batch of physical cards we give each Internet café a share of 30, and it is free, but from the next purchase, we will charge the card fee in advance. ”

Sun Wenlu replied.

"Okay, I know, what about the Internet cafes? The housekeeper system now only covers less than one-tenth of the country's Internet cafes, there are more Internet cafes and are willing to join the ranks of the management system, and we also have to distribute other Internet cafes, it is best to find the general agent of each province, and then let them develop the following municipal agents by themselves. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said.

"Of course, we have thought about this problem, but the problem now is that the game has not been launched yet, and even if someone wants to be a provincial generation, they are still waiting. So we should let the game go online first, as long as the game is popular enough, there is always no shortage of agents at all levels. ”

"That's right, you're thinking correctly, but in this way, you will contact the manufacturer tomorrow, the production of point cards must be accelerated, don't be afraid of spending money, I have confidence in this game, when we place another order, we will start with 100,000 directly. ”

"100,000?"

Sun Wenlu's eyes widened, "Could it be too much?"

Shen Xing also withdrew his attention from the computer game and looked at Zhou Fangyuan with a surprised gaze.

Indeed, in the eyes of the two, Zhou Fangyuan's steps are indeed a little too big, 100,000 cards, even if they are all ten yuan point cards, so many point cards are worth one million. Of course, Sun Wenlu believes that it is not difficult to buy one million games that Zhou Fangyuan is optimistic about, but one hundred thousand at once...... It's still a bit exaggerated.

"Not much? Not much.

We can place a larger order, anyway, with the output of the card factory, these 100,000 are enough for them to produce for a long time. You have to believe my judgment, 100,000 point cards spread out to the whole country, how many can be distributed in one province? And then how many can fall to the following cities? How many can be in each city? How many can be distributed to Internet cafes in the hands of Internet cafes? If it weren't for fear of scaring you, I would even prepare one million cards at a time for the next order. But take your time, there is still some time before the charge, so we can take advantage of this time to slowly distribute the goods.

In addition, contact more factories to prepare for the development of peripheral figures, once the game is popular, we will take advantage of the trend to launch game figures and peripheral models, which is also a huge source of profit, we can't miss it. ”

Zhou Fangyuan took one step and looked at three steps, although he would not kill the chicken and take the eggs, vainly trying to squeeze out all the remaining value of the game overnight, that is unrealistic, and the damage to the game and the company is too great. But it's normal to squeeze some more profits as much as possible without hurting the game and the company. In the final analysis, starting a company is to make money, although Zhou Fangyuan has now strictly controlled the game, as much as possible to ensure that the source code of the game will not be leaked, and at the same time, the detection system has been strengthened for possible plug-ins in the future, ready to carry out real-time strikes.

But no one can say what will happen in the future, and the situation that is not in line with the previous life will happen again, so in the end, it is necessary to explore the potential of the game as soon as possible and develop the game market as much as possible. Once this step is taken, it doesn't matter if the legend will still be consumed in a short period of time like the previous life. At least after the development of the market, it is equivalent to laying a good foundation for Dahua, Meteor and Warcraft III.

Further, it is the World of Warcraft, the Audition, the Karting and the Dungeon, etc., this is a set of combination punches, and Zhou Fangyuan wants to firmly control the position of the first game company in this way. Coupled with the cooperation of Tengxun and Ali, there are guarantees in the upstream and downstream, and he doesn't believe that anyone can surpass him.

Sun Wenlu didn't know Zhou Fangyuan's thoughts, he just felt that Zhou Fangyuan's step was a little too big, he was afraid that the distant game would pull the egg. But when I think about it, people are bosses, not to mention that there are Plants vs. Zombies Zhuyu in front, there is no reason why the legend can't be.

He's played this game before, and it's a really good one, and even he's addicted to it. Therefore, Zhou Fangyuan's self-confidence is not untargeted, but he will make such a decision with absolute self-confidence.

The two chatted for a while, seeing that the time had gradually reached more than 7:50, Zhou Fangyuan got up and took Sun Wenlu and Shen Xing to the development department outside, it was only a few minutes before the game was launched, everyone was very nervous, and the atmosphere in the office was a little solemn.

Zhou Fangyuan's arrival made the atmosphere here even more solemn, and everyone didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

It wasn't until the hour hand stopped at 8 o'clock that Cao Yan lightly lined up his hands.

"Let's go online. ”

The programmer, who had made all the preparations, rang the final enter key, and the next second, the game server went online, and then countless data traffic began to pour into the server.
