Before the Spring Festival holiday ended, Liu Yun left Donghai City and returned to the company.

Although the Spring Festival holiday is 7 days, some management members consciously come to work a few days in advance, which also surprises Liu Yun, but he is also very happy with the enthusiasm of his subordinates.

2007 is a very critical year, and it is the largest layout of Yoyo's game market for the Chinese Internet in history. As long as you survive this year, Yoyo's game empire on PC will be officially established and indestructible.

The success or failure of the online game market determines whether Yoyo can have sufficient cash flow without financing.

In the previous life, Tencent's financing was very rare, and it all happened before 2004, and the total amount involved, including the sale of shares, was only 6.2 million US dollars according to Xiao Ma, and since then, Tencent has completely relied on self-reliance to achieve a business empire.

Liu Yun still remembers that when Brother Xiao Ma said this, that triumphant tone almost overflowed the screen.

The reason why Tencent is so confident comes from the fact that they have sufficient cash flow. First, they relied on QQ's value-added services to bring a lot of profits to Tencent, and then they relied on one popular game after another to enrich Tencent's coffers, and also laid a solid foundation for their expansion and the establishment of the entire business empire.

Liu Yun actually doesn't like financing in his heart, that is really diluting his shares, and he also hopes that one day he can be as arrogant as Brother Ma in his previous life, announcing that his company's dependence on financing is very small.

Since "Crossfire" was launched for more than a month, relying on the platform of YOYO voice, plus game websites, navigation websites, and security guards, it has spared no effort to promote, and the effect has been remarkable.

The number of players online has exceeded 500,000, and many former CS enthusiasts continue to flock to this game and treat it as an online version of CS. The mode of charging props has also made the local tyrants among these players shout that they have won, as long as they have a good time, it is never a problem to spend some money.

He picked up the phone and called out several of the executives to the office.

The first to report to the work is Zhao Xudong of the game company, due to the heavy task after the year, the open beta of "Zhu Xian" is imminent, and he has been busy recruiting people recently, or digging corners.

Sohu's well-known Changyou Studio has dug up several key personnel through Liu Shihua's relationship, and Zhao Xudong has also dug up a lot of technicians from Jinshan, Shanda and other companies. With the expansion of the game company, the entire 15-20 floors of the building have been designated as their office space.

After buying the entire building and naming it Yoyo Building, Liu Yun replanned the entire floor. The 21st floor is the headquarters of the group, in addition to the chairman's office, there are editorial department, marketing department, administration department, and finance department.

Floors 15-20 are game companies, floors 11-15 are Yoyo Technology, and floors 6-10 are Yoyo Holiday Network. These three companies occupy the most floors and there are still a lot of empty offices today, but the pace of expansion will not slow down in the future, and there will be a steady stream of new employees joining in, so it is necessary to prepare for these number of floors.

The four floors of the 3rd to 6th floors belong to the Yoyo era, while the second floor belongs to the YOYO milk tea and Yoyo chain Internet café that are now on the edge, and the first floor is the lobby of Yoyo.

Two years later, Yoyo Holiday will be separated from the building and moved to Shanghai, leaving five floors of space.

"Mr. Liu, the preparations for "Zhu Xian" are almost complete, just waiting for the open beta of the game. But ......" Zhao Xudong said this, showing a hint of hesitation.

"Something came to mind, but it didn't hurt to say it. Liu Yun said lightly.

That's right, the launch time of "Zhu Xian" is almost the same as Ctrip's "Miracle World". Now that the market popularity of "Miracle World" has been copied very high, I am a little worried that it will be robbed of the limelight by then. Zhao Xufei said with some concern.

As Yoyo's first self-developed 3D game, it has introduced a seamless map, and the investment is huge. Now that he has to go head-to-head with "World of Miracles", he will inevitably be diverted by many players. He was worried that this would cause a lot of damage to the operation of the game.

In this era, many operators of domestic online games are a little lacking in confidence in the face of Korean games, and they are timid before fighting. What's more, "Miracle World" is famous, and its predecessor is "Miracle MU", which was once popular all over the country.

Liu Yun thought for a while, and then asked, "Has Ctrip set the charging model for "Miracle World"?"

Zhao Xudong replied: "It's set, it's a point card charge." ”

Liu Yun was happy in his heart, and replied calmly: "Respond to all changes with the same, just do your best." ”

In the previous life, "Zhu Xian" operated by Perfect Time and Space and "Miracle World" operated by Jiucheng were also launched at about the same time, but the endings were very different. "Zhu Xian" has become an important economic source for Perfect Time and Space, and "Miracle World" has failed in the end in addition to its popularity during the opening of the server.

In terms of the experience of operating the game, Ctrip is not even as good as Jiucheng, and Yoyo is stronger than the perfect time and space of the previous life, from the analysis of the quality of the game, the quality of the self-developed "Zhu Xian" is also higher than the same model in the previous life, so there is no reason to be afraid at all.

Therefore, Liu Yun did not have the slightest worry, and it was more meaningful to take the other party down head-on.

He turned his head to look at Liu Shihua, who is now the vice president of Yoyo Technology and the technical director of the group company. Mr. Zhou Hongyi, the president, is still leisurely spending his vacation abroad, and of course Liu Yun doesn't care.

"Director Liu, I hope that Yoyo Technology can make a profit this year. By the way, what is our share of the antivirus software market today?"

"Mr. Liu, the proportion of Yoyo antivirus is constantly increasing, and there are very few paid users added, mainly by activating Yoyo's various products to get free activation codes. Today, it is very close to Kaspersky's market share. ”

"That's what I want, do you have the confidence to surpass Kaspersky this year?" Liu Yun nodded and continued to ask.

"This ...... , If we compare with paying users alone, we can't compare with Kaspersky, but we can still attract a lot of new netizens with all kinds of edge balls, with the free discount period that is given. ”

Liu Yun understood that free was a big boo, so he said: "I just have one request, I don't care how many paying users are, you can try your best to use preferential measures to attract netizens, but you must not play the slogan of free antivirus software." ”

This slogan cannot be released now, it is too hateful, and it is easy to become the target of others' shouting and killing. His scalp is not as hard as Zhou Hongyi in his previous life.

"In a few days, I will go to Zhejiang University to prepare for my graduation thesis, and the company's affairs will need a lot of care. ”

After Liu Yun explained the main thing, he gave the last order.
