Volume 1 Chapter 11 of the First Quarter, My Game is Your Master
The next few days coincided with the May Day holiday, and most of the students who went home were students who were close to home or whose homes were in the local area, just like they usually did on weekends or when they didn't want to live on campus, carrying a small bag on their backs. For students who stay in school, compared with usual, the May Day holiday feels like there are just a few fewer classes, and the rules of life have not changed much.
Young people in their twenties really don't care about the concept of time, fast and slow at will, always feel the same idle panic every day, in the best scenery of life, there are always people who inadvertently spend most of their time.
Liu Dawei is a local in S City, and he was on vacation, so he wanted to hang out with a few friends at school. But if you don't go home for such a long vacation, I'm afraid it's.
The establishment of the studio has just begun, and several people are in high spirits. After a few discussions, they decided to buy a machine and put it in the dormitory as a server for the studio, which is usually used for programming, modification and testing. Besides, the speed of the dormitory's network line is not fast enough, and the hang-up is OK, which is too stuck for playing online games; the second is that the dormitory manager has a power outage on time after 12 o'clock in the evening, and he can't play if he wants to. The working hours of this server are only from 5:00 a.m. to 24:00 p.m. at the longest, and thirdly, the dormitory becomes a game room, which is very risky in the long run, and both study and life will be affected.
So on the first day of the holiday, Lin Yan moved a computer back, connected to broadband, and spent 88 yuan to register a network domain name: , Architect the web platform, everyone can log in and download LY auxiliary programs, and then firewalls, patches, etc. In order to make the 17175 website less monotonous, Lin Yan made some online game advertisements on it, put the recent popular online game advertisements on it, and set up a player forum to facilitate players to talk about game experience. In particular, "Hot X Legend" is a large-scale introduction, and the hang-up auxiliary advertising is made in the most conspicuous place.
For a few days, Lin Yan basically didn't go out. Just when Lin Yan was fiddling with the computer in the dormitory, several people couldn't wait to go to the Hanlin Internet café, and then chose a few machines as special seats for the next May Day holiday.
While they were playing the game, they were secretly promoting this idle aid with their friends in the game, and several people didn't dare to make a big fuss, but just cautiously told the closest friends.
In the days leading up to the holidays, many gamers were online almost 24 hours a day, and a few people launched an auxiliary program for on-hook upgrades that were almost unnoticed. There are a few people who have tried, the reaction is not satisfactory, first, hang up in the zombie hole of the Taoist, because the baby often in the corner of the machine can not fight monsters, waste of time, hang up experience is too little. Second, the network is oversaturated during the holidays, and the hang-up is often dropped. Third, after the script finally ran normally, there were too many players at the idle point, and there was no chance to fight monsters, so they were forced to PK everywhere.
Such small problems have been reflected one after another, which has greatly increased Lin Yan's pressure, especially now that the holidays are over, and the third problem can be solved without technical problems at all. But he knows that soon the AFK assist will be recognized by the public, because not everyone can be online for more than 20 hours all the time, and those studios that play on behalf of him have them, but the fees are high, and there are not many people to choose.
Lin Yan had to make some micro-technical modifications for this reason, adding the "accelerator" setting in the hang-up assist, to ensure that the hang-up number is one step ahead of the monster;
S City has the largest furniture wholesale market in the country, Xiangcheng Avenue is long by the water, and the newly developed International Furniture City is even more magnificent, with many pavilions and different styles. Chinese style is simple and elegant, American style is magnificent, European style is simple and fresh, furniture is not only the object used, but also the aesthetic artwork.
Dawei's parents run a store in the furniture city, his mother is in charge of accounting and delivery arrangements, and his father is in charge of business development. During the holidays, business is busier than usual, and you can only meet them in the evening, and during the day they are busy.
Dawei's cousin Liu Guoqing is also in high school this year, and he is with Dawei every day during the May Day holiday. Dawei is proudly struggling with the double opening legend at the moment, a trumpet is hanging up, and the large number and Fang Hui, Yu Zi, and the fat man take 2 new numbers (Lin Yan's new number and Dawei's cousin's new number) to brush up experience in the pig hole of the server in District 20. The fat man was holding the best weapon in the whole server, the ancient jade scepter, and he was in a violent mood. Dawei, Fang Hui and Yu Zi have 4 character standing card monsters, level 3 fire wall plus thunder and lightning, and the experience of 2 trumpets has soared, and it has risen to more than 20 levels in 2 days.
Liu Guoqing even launched the relationship between classmates, there are already many people who are playing the legend of the little fans who have followed the trend to join the 20 districts, and many students in other districts have also tried the hang-up auxiliary program, but there are not many people who are interested in buying, just a trial.
On the fourth day of the promotion of the hang-up assist program LY, a player in Yuzi's QQ came up to ask the price, and inquired about the specific matters and professional questions of use. The pricing of the LY hang-up assistant program,Several people have already set,30 yuan per month,300 yuan per year(one more month),An activation code can only log in to 1 account,If you find more than two accounts, it will be dropped。 When the app is updated, it can be updated online between 8:00 and 20:00 every day.
The player who asked for this inquiry finally bargained and asked for a package of 200 yuan a year, buy 10 activation codes online at a time, and try it, once the problem is found, ask for updates and after-sales service. In view of being the first buyer, Lin Yan finally decided that the price could not be changed, and the use period of the 10 activation codes could be extended by 3 months, and the two parties finally reached an agreement.
At that time, there was no 5713 online game trading platform, and it could only be operated offline. The two sides confirmed the bank account on the phone, the cash payment was deposited, and after Yuzi received the payment of 3,000 yuan, he then sent 10 activation codes to the other party through QQ.
Yu Zihan took out the money, the red Grandpa Mao, a thin layer spread on the desk, bright red and gorgeous, the faint fragrance of ink entered everyone's nose, as if it was a drug, and the faces of several people showed excited looks.
In recent days, everyone has been working hard to promote LY hang-up assistance, but before seeing the results, the mood is still apprehensive, and now it is finally seeing the light.
Although the main credit is Lin Yan, Lin Yan's mood is the most calm. Several people looked at Lin Yan in unison, wanting to speak and stopping, waiting for Lin Yan to speak.
"This is the first order transaction since the establishment of our studio, and I am very happy that everyone's efforts during this period of time have finally paid off, and it has made a good start. ”
After the high-five, Lin Yan continued: "We don't need to be excited, there will definitely be a steady stream of orders in the future." We keep a good account of every money and deposit it into a special account set up by LY Studio. Each of the five of us holds 20% of the shares, and we work together in a division of labor. The pricing of the product remains the same, regardless of relatives and relatives, and there is no group price for relatives and friends. Our 5 people's own account 3 activation codes are used permanently, and they can't be more, whether you pick up a girl or give it away, or hang up yourself, don't interfere...... There is no problem!"
"This, the shares are not very suitable, the four of us have not made any efforts, it is not possible to divide them equally, and the brothers will settle the accounts. Our brothers belong to brothers, but you still have the money, and we also know that your family's financial difficulties are willing, and the four of us are willing to help you. Although Yu Zihan said that he was the first to negotiate the first order, he was willing to take it at all.
"Yes, we don't want it, give us shares like this, you bury our brothers, right?" Fang Hui said: "Yanzi, everyone trusts you and does it with you, but everyone is not at ease if you are like this." Let's not talk about the shares, this business has just started, if we don't want money, you definitely don't agree, so we can't eat white food or pay for nothing, who will act as an agent in the future to get out of the single commission of 50% per order, hang up to assist is Yanzi to get out, it should be Yanzi to take half, so let's do it!"
"It's a good idea, more work and more reward. The fat man also laughed politely, and several people agreed.
"No, no, no, this is absolutely not good, don't talk about shares for the time being, no problem, it's a matter of principle for everyone to share together when you make money. I suggest that no matter how much money it is, 50% of the profit will not be touched, and as the start-up capital for the establishment of a studio or company in the future, we will share 50% of the profit. For example, if I have 3,000 yuan today, 1,500 yuan will be left here for the time being, and the other 1,500 yuan will be used as a profit share. I'm serious about this, our goal is not to earn so little pocket money, but to set up a company, if the profit dividends are not clear at the beginning, after our company does it, everyone will make a lot of trouble, now we are brothers, but standing at the company level, we should have a procedure and principles, you must listen to me. ”
Several people looked at Lin Yan's resolute and serious face, and they were all silent, and everyone suddenly found that Lin Yan not only had a clear idea, but also had a long-term vision than themselves. Even if he wanted to say something to concede, he felt very pale, and he recognized Lin Yan's words in his heart and made sense.
In the end, at Lin Yan's insistence, everyone agreed. Several people also agreed on the charter of the studio, and the division of labor was detailed. Lin Yan is responsible for program update and general planning, Fat Man has a delicate personality and is responsible for order bookkeeping, Fang Hui is responsible for recording, sorting and classifying activation codes, and Dawei and Yu Zi are mainly responsible for business development. Before the studio was officially established, Lin Yan took 50% first, and the other 50% was shared. Lin Yan took this 3,000 yuan as an example and gave 300 yuan to each person, of which 1,500 yuan Lin Yan was stored separately as start-up capital.
Several people analyzed today's list, and agreed that this should be an activation code bought by a boosting studio, a one-time 10 annual lists, spending 3,000 yuan, and he only needs 2 to 3 orders to return to the capital in two months. Lin Yan believes that we mainly do technology and promotion of hang-up assistance, not to do power training, if there is, we are not opposed to a few people taking orders.
Soon, Dawei's side also blossomed, Dawei's cousin and classmates saw that this hang-up assistance was so easy to use, and several people asked Dawei to buy 15 activation codes, but it was the kind of 30 yuan per month, and the collection was 450 yuan.
LY hang-up assistance has spread one after another in the way of mutual introduction or reselling, whether it is Fang Hui or the fat man, they have all received orders, but most of them are small orders with monthly subscriptions. Even so, in just 517 days of the holiday, 135 orders were sold, and 90% of the orders were sold in the last 2 days, this trend continues, as long as the player tastes the sweetness, it will be renewed every month in the future, and new orders will be endless.
In 7 days, the fat man counted that there were only 36 annual orders, 99 monthly orders, and an income of 13,770 yuan. In just 7 days, the studio generated 13,770 yuan. At this time, the average monthly salary in S City in China is 1,200 yuan per month, while the minimum wage is only 460 yuan per month, which is equivalent to most people's annual income. The results of the past few days can only be described in two words - crazy.
In the end, Lin Yan found that he was more idle, because the program does not need to be updated all the time, and it will only be modified when there are bug problems or customer service needs. Dawei and Yu Zi, who are in charge of business, are the busiest, and they often have constant QQ and phone messages.
Soon the two found that someone from the game boosting studio approached them, because with the gradual integration of LY hang-up assistance into the market, the cost of boosting has decreased, and there has been vicious competition in fees, and the price has fallen below 1,000 yuan per month. Their own identity,It was in the hands of Yu Zi who bought the activation code,I hope Yu Zi will not sell it cheaply to players,If players buy LY hang-up assistance by themselves,They will have nothing to eat.,Propose to let them sell LY hang-up assistance as an agent.。
Lin Yan realized that the game that had just been launched was a big conflict of interest with those game studios. If the boosting company is in a hurry, in order to make money, it will definitely find a technician to crack the hang-up assistance, and new game hang-up assistants will soon come out on the market, plug-ins and so on.
Lin Yan thought about it and felt that these leveling studios could act as agents to sell LY hang-up auxiliary programs, and it would be better for them to focus on technical things, which would not only make it easier for everyone, but also open up sales channels at the same time, and professional game studios naturally have their own set of marketing models. In addition, you can customize professional plug-in programs for them, but these plug-in programs will definitely break the internal rules. However, I will never promote, deal behind the scenes, sell and publish by them, so that I can also take off my responsibility.
So, Lin Yan brought a few people over, discussed it, and let everyone express their ideas. A few people summed up and decided: 1. Give the agency rights of LY hang-up auxiliary sales to those game studios and sell them by them. Yu Zi and Dawei are only responsible for contacting a few studios to open and issue activation codes in the form of monthly or annual cards. 2. LY hang-up assistance has added 2 new models, one is a quarterly card and one is a semi-annual card. 3. The price to the agent is changed to 20 yuan for the monthly card, 55 yuan for the season card, 110 yuan for the half-year card, 200 yuan for the annual card, and the retail price is increased to 40 yuan for the monthly card, 110 yuan for the season card, 200 yuan for the half-year card, and 400 yuan for the annual card. 4. No matter which studio can be sold as an agent, but the retail price must also be unified, if you need to develop a special logo, you can help customize. 5. Lin Yan and several people are mainly engaged in technology development, in addition to Lin Yan, several other people also need to strengthen the learning of programming languages and make progress together. In this way, everyone will have more time to study and complete their studies, and Lin Yan also said the development direction and goals of the future work.
Soon, Yu Zi, Dawei and several game studios reached an agreement. The price is changed, and they act as an agent for sales, and the retail price must also be unified, and everyone agrees one by one, saying that they will develop together and cooperate happily.
At present, the market has just launched LY hang-up assistance, there is a trend of short supply, and the price is higher, which is also very popular. The boosting business of LY AFK Assist Agents (Game Studios) will definitely be impacted, but it will definitely be able to make up for it in the sale of LY AFK Assist programs, and there will be more.
