Time came to October 27, 2013, and it has been seven days since Molong Studio's "Glory of Kings" and Wang Xinwen's "Storm Three Kingdoms" were launched.

As a mobile game, the first time node to comprehensively consider the quality and revenue of the product is the seventh day after its launch.

On this day, experienced game development companies and publishing platforms will be able to roughly predict the future trend of the game through two data indicators.

The names of these two metrics are: seven-day player retention rate, and how much a player pays.

The seven-day player retention rate of "Three Kingdoms of Storms" is 6.7%, and the amount paid by a single player is 38.2 yuan.

To put it simply, if there are 100 players who sign up for the game on October 21, then by the seventh day, fewer than seven will remain......

If other companies or other people make such a game, when Wang Xinwen is willing to keep some morality, he will probably say 'mediocre', and if he is not in a good mood, he will probably use words like 'spicy chicken'......

However, when this data belongs to his painstaking works, Wang Xinwen is only left with the words 'want to cry without tears'.

He really didn't figure it out, with his understanding of "Dota Legend", even if the points were reduced because of the art style and ease of use of the interface, but at least get a good income, it should not be difficult to make a capital preservation money, but the current situation, not to mention the capital protection, even whether the cost of renting servers and team operations every day can be earned, it is estimated that there is a question mark......

In fact, Wang Xinwen can be regarded as smart this time, but he was mistaken by being smart.

He was familiar with the version of "Dota Legends" from at least a year and a half ago, when he was still the general manager of Lilith Technology.

At that time, Lilith Technology, asking for money and no money, asking for no people, although Zhang Hao and Yuan Shuai did not dare to slack off at all times, but both of them had their own areas that they were not good at, and although Wang Xinwen was also a game planner when he was in Penguin Games, but at that time in Lilith Technology, he was more responsible for outreach......

…… It's just that Wang Xinwen at that time would not be responsible for the specific project research and development anyway, so Zhang Hao and the others simply made the mistake and didn't say it clearly in front of him.

What's more, with Li Mo's entry into Lilith Technology, he brought not only a steady stream of funds, but also the final molding standards of the game "Dota Legend" in the original time and space, and this kind of advanced experience is actually the key factor in the success of "Dota Legend".

…… In a word, if someone opens a full-screen map hanging, how else can other people play?

Speaking of which, Wang Xinwen is definitely not the first person in this time and space to fall into the hands of a RMB player like Li Mo, it is estimated that ...... Nor will it be the last.

Just as Wang Xinwen was looking at the two numbers on the computer screen and thinking about how to explain it to the person in charge of Penguin Games, with two knocks on the door, the door of the office was pushed open from the outside.

"Xiao Wang, you're inside, why didn't you react after knocking for a long time just now?"

The man who came in was none other than Wang Bo, who single-handedly planned Wang Xinwen's return to the penguin game.

At this time, he should have known the seven-day retention and average player payment rate of "Storm Three Kingdoms" from other places, and his face did not look very good.

"Well, it's Mr. Wang," Wang Xinwen still has some respect for Wang Bo. And it was true that he was distracted just now and didn't hear a knock on the door, so at this time Wang Xinwen had to apologize quickly, "I was looking at some data of the game just now......"

As soon as the words came out, Wang Xinwen wanted to slap himself in the face.

I know that at this time, it's best to be able to turn big things into small things.,It's best to fool the bad things in the game.,As a result, I'm not going to die.,The first sentence is about game data......

Sure enough, after hearing Wang Xinwen's words, Wang Bo's face became even more ugly. He shook his head, took a few deep breaths, and said, "Xiao Wang, since the game data of "Three Kingdoms of Storms" has come out. It seems that you also have a certain amount of psychological preparation, let's not wait for Mr. Ma to find us, go directly to him to discuss it, and see what to do. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Bo patted Wang Xinwen on the shoulder and continued: "The data is not ideal for a while, it doesn't mean anything, we are all people who have been in the industry for many years, and we have all heard and seen many examples of unsatisfactory at the beginning and then adjusted to ideals, first put the mentality flat, and see what Mr. Ma said......

"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, I understand. ”

Wang Xinwen briefly cleaned up, took a notebook and walked with Wang Bo towards the office of Ma Xiaoyi, director of Penguin Games' mobile division......

………………

At about the same time, thousands of miles away in Shudu, the seven-day data of "Glory of Kings" was also released.

Different from the gloomy clouds and mist on Wang Xinwen's side, Molong Studio's side can almost be described as joyful.

The seven-day player retention of "Honor of Kings" is 38.1%, and the amount paid by a single player is 489.7 yuan.

Moreover, at least more than 1,500 players have purchased the 2999 Pit Daddy Skin Gift Pack......

This amount alone has exceeded 4.5 million yuan......

In the end, "Glory of Kings" was launched for a week and successfully won a weekly turnover of 80 million yuan......

And that's just the beginning.

In the first week of its launch, although the total turnover did not exceed 100 million, with good operability and the balance of various hero attributes, the word-of-mouth effect of "Glory of Kings" has initially appeared.

According to the data reported by Wang Yiwen and Li Chao, there are already some players of "League of Legends" and "DOTA", because they cannot guarantee the game time in front of the computer, so they have planned to use "Glory of Kings" as the first choice for teaming up in the future fragmented time......

From this point of view, cooperating with Penguin, Li Mo doesn't seem to have any dissatisfaction.

Nonsense, you dig all the feet of the wall and dig into the end game platform of other penguin games, what else can you not be satisfied with?

Without the huge user advantage of Penguin's chat software, even if Molong Studio's "Glory of Kings" did well, it would never have achieved today's results.

Although after the launch of "Glory of Kings", the data in the first week did not rush directly to the level of '100 million' as Li Mo expected, but judging from the expressions of Wang Yiwen, Li Chao and others, it seems that they all feel that the current data is enough to make all the members of Molong Studio enter the celebration mode.

After thinking about it for a long time, the only explanation Li Mo could find was that it was not the year 2015 of the original time and space.

Even though the software and design of the game "Honor of Kings" are the same as the original plane, as the game reviewers of Penguin Games said: there are not many people in the current player base who are willing to accept this kind of gameplay and even the operation experience.

It can even be said that with the current hardware environment and player habits, and even the depth of the market, it is not enough to support a mobile game with a monthly turnover of 1.5 billion, and the highest monthly turnover of more than 7 billion.

From this starting point, looking at the data of "Glory of Kings" for a week after its launch, Li Mo suddenly felt that he could achieve a seven-day turnover of 80 million, which seemed to be ...... It's already quite good.

After a week of close observation, Li Mo determined that the "Glory of Kings" in this time and space has indeed embarked on the trajectory and path that he experienced in the original time and space, and the rest of the matter is only to wait for time to slowly improve, so he will rest assured that the operation of the game and the follow-up research and development, as well as the version update will be handed over to Wang Yiwen and others to be responsible, and he is ready to embark on a journey back to the imperial capital.

Because, he received a call from the imperial capital.
