Chapter 612: You Are My Shadow (1st Update)

Guangdong Province, Shencheng.

Brother Xiao Ma held a cigarette in his hand, sat on the chair leisurely, and said to the people around him: "It seems that our Mr. Liu finally can't help it." “

Zhang Zhidong said with a smile: "Now we are on the offensive, and the other party is on the defensive, but that Mr. Liu, I thought he had become stable, but he was still so excited." “

Brother Xiao Ma used his trademark action to lift down the frame and said, "You are wrong, Liu Yun did it on purpose." From what I know of him, he didn't do it for us, but for the public. ”

Zhang Zhidong was slightly stunned, and then asked, "How are you sure." ”

Brother Pony replied: "It's very simple, he doesn't care much about our behavior, even if we imitate a few popular games of Yoyo, at most we can only cut a few pieces of meat from the other party, which will not affect the overall situation too much." ”

"The reason why he did this was to take a breath, and secondly, to attract the public's attention, hype, increase the heat, and by the way, he could overpower us. ”

Zhang Zhidong flashed his eyes and said, "Mr. Ma, I understand." In the past, we Tencent imitated the products of other companies in order to drive the other party to a dead end, but Yoyo is different.

Its size and scale determine that we can't beat each other in a short period of time, and over time we will be labeled as a follower. ”

Brother Xiao Ma showed a hint of worry: "I think Liu Yun will definitely seize this point and make a big fuss." ”

......

After the launch of "Sword Network III", Yoyo also launched a promotional video for this game.

A stunningly beautiful, beautiful woman, dressed in a white costume, performed light steps, and gracefully jumped among several towering ancient trees.

In the jump, he also waved the sword in his hand, and sometimes the sword light shone, and he had the ability to not let the eyebrows go.

The beautiful woman jumped lightly, like a dragonfly dotting the water, rising and falling on the surface of the lake, with a beautiful posture and a splash......

Some sharp-eyed netizens also found that the chivalrous girl in the CG animation of this game, with her face and silhouette, vaguely resembles the popular little diva Tian Fu......

For many players who are obsessed with martial arts, such swords and swords, and the rivers and lakes of children's love are more attractive.

However, at this moment, Liu Yun knew in his heart that although this game was popular, it was unlikely that the wealth it could create would reach a too high amount.

"If it can generate 200 million profits a year, my score can reach more than 90 points. He said to Zhao Xudong.

"Indeed, the non-point card fee will not generate too high consumption, and it is difficult to appear the kind of player who spends a lot of money. Zhao Xudong also agreed with the boss's point of view.

"No, it won't be a point card, but a monthly card!" Liu Yun replied calmly, "Maybe after a while, the point card mode will be introduced, which can allow players to make two-way choices." ”

"Moon card!" Zhao Xudong was slightly stunned, obviously this was a strange and familiar way.

Strange because today's online games rarely adopt this model, and familiar because it was popular for a few years before the rise of online games.

"The monthly card is 60 yuan. The public beta of "Sword Network 3" is about to end, and Liu Yun quickly made a decision.

"But Mr. Liu, have you thought about the potential uneasiness factors?" Zhao Xudong hesitated for a moment and asked.

"What do you mean?" Liu Yun replied, raising his eyebrows slightly.

"Shanda over there!" Zhao Xudong showed a hint of helplessness, "They have also obtained the right to operate, and it is a prop charging model." ”

He has always been puzzled by the boss's decision, Yoyo is a time-based model, and at the same time let another company get the right to operate for free time, isn't this digging a hole for himself?

"It's true that the game has created a lot of buzz. Liu Yun shrugged his shoulders and smiled indifferently, "The monthly card model is launched, and there are two charging models, which are operated by two companies at the same time. But in this case, you don't need to worry at all, I know Shanda better than you!"

Zhao Xudong was immediately interested, he had not studied this company in depth. Because the two are no longer of an order of magnitude.

"The operation rights of this game and Yoyo's acquisition of the starting point Chinese network from Shanda are carried out together. The original conditions were: the starting price of Yoyo's acquisition was 150 million, the profit share of Sword Network 3 was 16%, and the annual agency fee was 6 million. ”

Zhao Xudong thought for a while and said: "The valuation of the starting point Chinese network is low, and its normal value should be at least about 180 million." ”

Liu Yun waved his hand and replied, "That's because I reduced the game's agency fee and profit share to a minimum point, so I won the starting point at this price." ”

After a while, he continued to talk eloquently: "The profit share of Yoyo's agent for "World of Warcraft" or "Dragon Babu" is 20%, and the agency fee is tens of millions, but the agency fee we give is only 6 million. ”

Zhao Xudong immediately answered: "At such a price, we have lost a lot." ”

"No loss!" Liu Yun shook his head, "If the other party is Tencent or NetEase, I will never set the agency fee at 6 million." Because the other party is grand. ”

A smart businessman knows how to cast a long line to catch big fish, but Shanda, the company and the people at the helm behind it, are full of gamblers' mentality.

They just like to drink to quench their thirst and only see the immediate benefits.

"I know them. Liu Yun said flatly, "Because the selling price of the starting point Chinese network is lower than expected, they urgently need the operating income of this game to make up for the loss, the more windfall profits, the better!"

In the grand game, even if 10,000 yuan is spent, the player is still mediocre in it, and it is almost impossible to recharge a few hundred yuan. That's what they're all about! But today's gamers aren't so easy to fool.

The same game, two companies, two models, there is a comparison between players. ”

Zhao Xudong nodded a little abruptly and said, "Understood, Mr. Liu." What we have to do is to do it in the follow-up operation service and crush the other party. ”

Liu Yun nodded approvingly: "Like World of Warcraft, our value-added service can sell some costumes or items such as mounts, but it can't affect the balance of the game, and that's enough." I can even pack tickets, it is impossible for Shanda to make a profit by operating "Sword Network III" over there, I don't care about profit sharing, but we will definitely have a guaranteed agency fee of 6 million. ”

The reason why he is so confident is because this scene is the same as when Jinshan was operating in his previous life.

Shanda, with great ambitions, left the game after several years of operating the game on an item-based fee-for-fee model, while Kingsoft operated on a time-based fee-for-money model, and although it didn't reach the popularity of World of Warcraft or League of Legends, it was still at the top.

For Liu Yun, Yoyo, who has been promoted to an Internet giant company, and the prophetic information in his head, the two factors are superimposed, and it is easy to pit these second- and third-tier Internet companies in a state of strength.

After finalizing the charging model of "Sword Network 3", Liu Yun turned on his computer and logged in to his personal Weibo, and the popular Weibo pushed were all videos of some traffic stars singing and dancing, as well as some spicy-eyed selfie photos.

He shook his head with some dissatisfaction, and then blocked and blocked all these Weibo posts.

In the past and present life, the operation methods of the slag waves are the same!

A week ago, Sina's Lao Cao called to tell Liu Yun that Sina's operations team had met with several venture capital firms, and that well-known venture capital firms such as Sequoia and IDG had shown strong interest in discussing financing-related matters.

Lao Cao's Series A financing plan is 20%, with an amount of about $200 million. Most venture capital firms have also agreed with this offer.

He also asked Liu Yun about this, and he hoped that the other party could increase the price more.

After all, Cao Wei also knows that the weight of Liu Yun's words is far higher than his own in the eyes of those shrewd venture capital institutions.

But at that time, Liu Yun said indifferently: "Mr. Cao, I can trust you, and I will leave this matter to you to handle." ”

Of course, this is just a polite remark of the scene, Liu Yun has long been too lazy to pay attention to the trivial matters of Weibo, he has a veto, that is enough!

Now, Tencent Weibo on one side is chasing after him, so Lao Cao has been worried and does not dare to take it lightly, so he puts all his energy on the operation of Weibo. After all, in the hands of Sina, in addition to Weibo, the business that can be obtained now is a web portal.

Suddenly, he saw Liu Yun post a Weibo with some gunpowder in his tone, and he was on the hot search in an instant.

"When someone imitates you, it means that you have succeeded. If someone keeps imitating you, it means that they are always living in your shadow. From "QQ Fireline" to "QQ Warriors", to Tencent Weibo, as well as QQ Browser, and QQ input method. You've always been behind me, but you've never overtaken me. What does that mean? This penguin is just a shadow of me, it was, it is, and it will probably be!"

"You will always be my shadow!"

The other meaning of this sentence is that I will always overpower you!
