Chapter 0031 - Sunday Night at the Internet Café
Zhang Kexing and Cai Xinghua raised their eyes and saw that Zhou Peng was coming, they were a little overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Fifth brother, I heard that you went out to play with your fifth sister-in-law during the day today." ”
Zhou Peng turned on the computer and said, "Go, go, where did I get my girlfriend." ”
Next to him, Cai Xinghua said in his unique voice: "Oh, sixth brother, you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep." ”
Zhou Peng's seat was next to Cai Xinghua, he smiled and patted the second child's shoulder and said: "Second brother is right, I may still be in a dream now, I dare not wake up, I am afraid that I will wake up with nothing." ”
"Less nonsense, hurry up and get on the game, you are missing a fairy." "When Cai Xinghua plays games, his eyes rarely take off the screen, but his ears are surprisingly good.
"I said, Fifth Brother, do you remember your account password?"
Cai Xinghua complained: "You said that you are the fifth, let me tell you what is good? How can you even forget the game account password?"
"I forgot it from time to time, and it could have been stolen. ”
Zhou Peng ignored them, and after turning on the machine, he immediately plugged the floppy disk into the computer, and then downloaded the mini game that automatically applied for a game account.
He experimented, and the applet could apply for an account in ten seconds, and then Zhou Peng watched the applet automatically apply for an account, and he was quite happy.
Zhang Kexing, who was on the other side of Cai Xinghua, turned his head to look at Zhou Peng, who was staring at him stupidly, and asked very curiously: "I said fifth brother, what are you doing?"
Cai Xinghua didn't turn his head, and glanced at it with his spare eyes: "Old Five, hurry up and practice a trumpet in our server, oh yes, pull that fellow Zhang Ming of yours into our server, and the five of us can team up together." ”
Zhou Peng frowned and calculated: "The three of us plus Zhang Ming, this is not only four people." ”
Zhang Kexing on the other side said: "Shen Long also came to our server. ”
Zhou Peng remembered, although everyone plays big talk, but many people are not in the same server, and some people like to play in the new area, Zhang Kexing and Cai Xinghua are in a relatively old server, called Ranger Palace.
At this time in 2003, it was the time of the rapid expansion of the game Journey to the West, and it was also the era of rapid expansion of online games.
Electronic online games have always been a popular way for young people to enjoy leisure and entertainment, Zhou Peng's nineties when he was a child, it was the arcade era, when Zhou Peng went to elementary school, the happiest thing was to go to the game hall with his classmates to spend a dollar to buy seven copper plates, and then play arcade Three Kingdoms, The King of Fighters and so on. The decline of the arcade era was accompanied by the beginning of the Internet and online games.
The first computer games that entered the field of vision of Chinese netizens were some stand-alone games, such as Red Alert and The Legend of Sword and Fairy. Then online games began to appear in the field of view of netizens, and in 1996, a game called online genesis was almost regarded as a pioneer of online games in China. Later, the Japanese Q warm wind and the Korean upgraded monster PK wind entered the domestic market respectively.
The representative work of the Japanese system is the Stone Age, while the Korean system has the bloody legend of the millennium, the red moon, and the later fire.
From 1996 to 2001, the concept of online games was formed and users were cultivated, then from 2002 to 2004 was the golden age of online game development, and in 2005, with the birth of World of Warcraft, many online games began to diverge.
The decline of the terminal game network began in 2007, and the reason for the decline of the terminal game was the rise of web games and the bombardment of advertising.
The golden age of web gaming lasted from 2007 to 2012, and then with the advent of smartphones, the era of mobile games arrived.
Zhou Peng knows the pulse of China's domestic games, and he knows that he can make a fortune and make a lot of money with this pulse.
"It's almost out of the new area, let's play the new area then. ”
The number of people in the new area set by the big talk 2 server is 2500 people, in fact, almost all the servers have more than 2,000 people online when it comes to gang battles.
In 2003, similar to the Spring Festival in 2020, the game industry developed rapidly, and then directly brought about a two-year golden period and a five-year boom period for the game industry.
It can be said unceremoniously that from 2002 to 2004, the online games developed in the past two years, as long as they are listed and publicized a little, there is no money that will not be profitable.
There is no college student who entered the university in 2002 who does not use the Internet.
And it is the power of Chinese gamers that has pushed a Shanghai-based businessman who was not known to be a legend to the throne of the richest man in the country.
And the game that pushes Businessman Chen to the throne of the richest man in the country is a bloody legend.
When the game was at its hottest, it occupied 65% of the market share of the entire online game market, and its monthly sales revenue could reach tens of millions.
The game was developed by a small medium-sized company in South Korea, and in the next two decades, this company took a total of about 12.8 billion RMB in agency fees from China!
Looking at the few games on the computer desktop, Zhou Peng secretly swore in his heart that when he had money, he must make a popular game before he could make money.
At the same time, a bold idea arose in his heart, that is, there are so many talents in his school, some who know computers, some who can write copy, some who study finance, those who study law, etc., if you gather all these people, can you make a game?
Maybe that's a good idea, but of course, it takes money.
"Fifth brother, you help me play, I'll go to the toilet. ”
Then, Zhang Kexing went to the toilet, and Zhou Peng was busy on his computer to help him play games.
The gang battle ended, Zhang Kexing and Cai Xinghua's gang lost again, and the two of them were depressed, like mourning and taking a test, complaining to each other while preparing to level up.
And Zhou Peng, while rewatching the variety shows in Bay Province that he had watched before, asked the mini program to automatically apply for a game account for him.
It takes 2,778 hours to apply for 6 accounts in a minute, and it takes 2,778 hours to apply for 1 million accounts.
Zhou Peng still has eighty yuan in his pocket, in addition to spending ten yuan just now, when the night will be opened, he plans to open ten computers, and let them all help him apply for a game account.
The all-nighter starts at 10 p.m. and lasts until 7 a.m. the next morning, for a total of nine hours, and the fee is six yuan, which is really good for college students.
Zhou Peng calculated, tonight, one night, you can automatically apply for more than 32,000 game accounts with 80 free points for Journey to the West, and one account can save yourself 5 yuan and 6 cents, and you can save 1670,000 yuan this night.
Zhou Peng was still looking at the computer stupidly, and then Zhang Kexing on the other side suddenly let out an excited sigh.
"Ahh
Cai Xinghua asked slowly, "What's wrong?"
"Second brother, fifth brother, I won the lottery!
"Che, I thought I had won 20,000, so excited. "Cai Xinghua is very calm and huge.
When Zhou Peng heard this, his heart jumped: Great, I have 500,000!
