Chapter 45: Closed beta

"Mr. Lu, let me sum it up, there are three things in total!" Liang Song said.

"First, there is a lack of money. If you want to do a good job in online game accelerator, you must have perfect hardware equipment, which is a lot of money. Then the cost of broadband to be invested is even more expensive. ”

"Second, the computer room. At present, Hongxin only has a computer room for game running, an online game accelerator, and its own independent computer room, that is, a server. ”

"Third, the market forecast is not optimistic. At present, the domestic network situation has improved a lot compared with previous years, and the number of users who demand online game accelerators is decreasing. And in addition to paid accelerators such as Xunyou to seize the market, major companies have launched their own free online game accelerators, and we have no core competitiveness compared to them. ”

Lu Zixin nodded and said, "The summary is good, and I will give you three answers." ”

"For the question of funds, list the expenses, make a budget, and I will review and find financial approval. ”

"Don't worry about the computer room, I've already bought it, and I'll be there in a few days. ”

"Third, the market invests in doing its best and striving to do the best. ”

Liang Song nodded, slightly relieved in his heart. He was afraid that Lu Zixin was impulsive and wanted to do a project, but he refused to invest in it, and he was afraid of losing money. Now it seems that Mr. Lu has already planned.

Lu Zixin's plan can be regarded as investing Hongxin's recent profits again. In fact, this practice is very dangerous, a company, if there is not enough liquidity on the books, once an accident occurs, the capital chain is broken, it is likely to go bankrupt and go bankrupt.

But Lu Zixin is not afraid, he believes that with the ability of the red queen, the products made can definitely hit a market!

In the following days, Hongxin Game Company entered a tense and busy state again.

A week later, the official website and mobile game client of "God of War" issued an announcement: the PC game of "God of War" will start the closed beta test at 12:00 tomorrow, and players who are qualified for the closed beta will be able to experience it at that time.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused cheers from loyal fans of "God of War".

On the official website, there are constant messages.

"Great, God of War is finally out on PC, I've been waiting for a long time!"

"I've been waiting for the PC version for a long time, so that the computer can reflect the technology - although the mobile game is also very fun!"

"Free or charged?"

"How do you grab the qualification for the closed beta?@The official account of "God of War of the Wilderness". ”

"I hope it's more fun than PUBG: Battle Royale, I'm tired of playing that!"

......

Not only netizens, but also major game companies have noticed this news.

Hongxin Games' entry into computer online games means that the competition in this market will increase again!

Shanda Games, the company's senior management has issued an order, closely staring at the PC version of "God of War", as soon as the internal test is opened tomorrow, it will summarize the game experience, market evaluation and other aspects.

Perfect Games, they are also among the top five game companies in China, especially in PC online games, and naturally they must also be prepared to keep an eye on the actions of Hongxin Games tomorrow.

Sanqi, giants, wandering ......

The most concerned are still NetOne Games and Penguin Games, after all, in this field, they are hegemon-level existences.

As a latecomer, Hongxin Games defeated them in the mobile game Chicken. Now that Hongxin Games is going to play computer online games again, they naturally feel the pressure.

NetOne Games only launched the PC version of "Wilderness Action" not long ago, but this so-called PC version is actually a combination of mobile games and simulators, and the production is rough, which is much worse than "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Battle Royale", and players do not have a high evaluation.

Penguin Games, on the other hand, has won the agency of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds: Battle Royale", the mobile game has been released, and the PC version will be launched soon. Now the hand of the red letter game is obviously to compete with them!

Therefore, both game companies held a special meeting to study this matter and strive to respond as soon as possible.

At noon the next day, twelve o'clock.

Some loyal players of "God of War" have already waited in front of the computer, and as soon as the link to the beta server comes out, they will quickly download and try it.

Zhang Wei is one of them, and today is the day of the holiday. He didn't wake up until 11 o'clock at noon, and after playing with the ink on his mobile phone until 12 o'clock, he quickly got up and downloaded the PC version of "God of War".

"I'll go, the resource package is so big, and the memory is not enough?" Zhang Wei clicked to download, and the computer prompted that the disk space was insufficient.

"The bigger the package, the better the production. Zhang Wei gritted his teeth, and deleted more than a dozen small movies he downloaded in a heartache, so as to free up memory.

He played with his phone while waiting. Finally downloaded and installed, he entered his internal beta account, and hurried in to experience it.

The experience at the beginning was good, Zhang Wei said excitedly: "It's still "God of War" Niubi, this operation is much more comfortable, and the degree of freedom is super high!"

But after playing for a while, he found that there was a jam, and the computer host seemed to be relatively hot.

"What the hell? Is it a bug?" Zhang Wei hurriedly asked on the Internet.

He found customer service on the official website and asked why.

The customer service said: "Your situation is due to the problem that the computer configuration does not match the game, and the reference computer configuration is as follows......"

Zhang Wei looked at it and immediately scolded: "Nima, can you play with such a high configuration?"

"Is this forcing me to go to an Internet café?"

In a small Internet café, several middle school students also encountered such an incident.

"Webmaster, why can't this game be played!" one student shouted.

"Reboot!"

"It's not a matter of restarting!" he emphasized, "I just got off the game, and the machine can't move!"

The network administrator was a flat-headed young man in his twenties, who came over to drum up a few times with a cigarette in his mouth. said: "No, we can't take this Internet café with us." ”

"So what should I do? I finally managed to get the beta qualification. ”

"Go to the Hailan Internet café over there, they have a good machine. ”

"Webmaster, aren't you afraid of being expelled?" asked the student next to him.

"it, are you adults? You don't even have ID cards, it's not like surfing the Internet here?" the webmaster scolded.

Similar problems are constantly emerging, and netizens have complained online.

"@"God of War" official account,The PC version has too high requirements for configuration, right?

"Lao Tzu changed two Internet cafes today to play! But then again, the production is still a fork!"

"How do you play this game? I'm still waiting for the penguin's chicken online game!"

"@ "God of War of the Wilderness" official account, I'll wipe it, you pay me for my computer! I played for two hours, and the CPU burned out!"

"Garbage game, I downloaded it at 12 o'clock and haven't played it well until now, your internet speed is too rubbish!"

"Upstairs retarded, isn't it because your internet speed is not good?"

In the face of a series of complaints and suggestions, the official account issued a new announcement.

"The PC version of God of War has high requirements for computer configurations, and it is recommended to configure as follows......"

"For those who are temporarily unable to function properly, please wait a few days, we will soon be launching a corresponding game booster that will solve the player's problem. ”

"Players, don't worry, this is only a closed beta. It will be optimized when the server is officially launched, and it will definitely satisfy everyone!"

This is only an internal test, and the impact among players is not great. But in the gaming industry, companies have seen the performance of God of War on PC and are relieved.

PS: Can students who have a book list add it?
