Chapter 11 The Beginnings

August 8 at 9 a.m.

"Brother Zhang, count the data. Li Xiaoming said.

"Okay, I'll take a look. Brother Zhang said, turned around and walked to his computer, pulled out a chair and sat down to operate.

Last night, this group of friends kept eating meat and drinking wine, and after drinking the beer, they went to carry a few more pieces, and now there are no two bottles left. The combat effectiveness of several young ladies is surprisingly high, and they have been drinking the financial brother Tong Jun for a few hours.

By 6 a.m., they had already opened four more servers in Region 2, and the peak crowd barely met the needs of players.

"There are currently 24,000 people online, and every server is full and all are queuing. Zhang Li looked at the background data and reported: "And now it's daytime, and the number of registrations has risen significantly from 8 o'clock to now, and has exceeded the 100,000 mark." The number of successful recharge of point cards has also reached 20,000, do you think you still need to open a server?"

"Open, the remaining four groups in the second district are all opened, continue to issue announcements and divert, and the third and fourth districts are all ready. Li Xiaoming took the beer bottle and knocked on the bottle.

"Okay, listen to you. ”

After instructing Zhang Li, Li Xiaoming turned his head to Chen Wu and said, "Okay, Chen Wu, you can sleep, get up at noon, go to various Internet cafes to go around, and see how the situation is." ”

"Okay, I'll lie down, and you can wake me up later, if the Internet café can achieve the desired effect, we will really be stable." Chen Wu was not hypocritical, and after agreeing, he turned around and ran to the conference room, put together a few benches, and went directly to lie down and go with the financial brother Tong.

According to the memory of later generations, the revenue of "Legend" in the first year should be 650 million, the number of registered users exceeded 70 million, and the peak online was 650,000. We look good on the first day, but we still have to think about how to develop the future, otherwise we are still far from this goal. Li Xiaoming sat at the computer desk, thinking to himself.

His mind kept flashing the propaganda plans of the later generations, and slowly sketched a fairly reliable prototype. Next, it depends on the end of the month, the Sichuan Provincial Publishing House and the players in the game are not strong.

However, some small details can be improved from now on, Li Xiaoming thought, pulled the mouse and keyboard, and clicked on the official forum: "It's good to write a guide." ”

So Li Xiaoming began to create the first novice strategy as a player according to the current progress in the game.

When writing the strategy, Li Xiaoming not only carefully described where the level is suitable for development, what equipment will be obtained, and how to earn the first pot of gold, but also emphasized the concept of three professions.

He wrote more than once that a warrior can carry monsters, a mage has a high output, and a Taoist priest can be used as an aid, add blood, and poison monsters.

The purpose of this is nothing more than brainwashing, so that players feel that they can get better equipment and more money faster by matching it, so as to achieve the promotional purpose of players spontaneously calling friends.

At this time, there is no concept of recursion, which is not a small attempt. The effect of word of mouth is actually more real than the official direct advertisement.

Next, he used his customer service account to log in to the forum, and it was not a big deal.

In the next month, the official will launch a trading platform for in-game items and virtual currency guaranteed by the official to ensure the security of players' transactions.

……

At noon, under Li Xiaoming's call, Chen Wu set off to inspect various Internet cafes with two big black circles under his eyes.

Because things were on the right track, Li Xiaoming saw that everyone was very tired, so he asked everyone to hurry back to rest and continue to fight tomorrow.

However, Zhang Li volunteered to stay, he looked at the data in these servers, and thought of the shares promised to him by the two small bosses, and his heart was always in a state of excitement, and he probably couldn't sleep after squinting for a while. So Li Xiaoming didn't say much, just went downstairs and bought him two cups of coffee.

……

The first week of the game's operation passed quickly in a state of high spirits.

August 16 at 9 a.m.

Everyone in the conference room was sitting in danger, listening to Zhang Li report the data of the week.

"As of 23:59 on the evening of the 15th, our game registered users exceeded the 600,000 mark, with a total of 32 servers in four regions running at the same time, the highest number of online users was 58,000, and 349,000 points were successfully recharged, and now it should have passed 350,000. The server load is normal, but if it continues like this, we need to scale up. ”

Everyone here is a participant and witness to the success of this game, and the excitement is beyond words to hear such data.

After listening to the data, Li Xiaoming knocked on the table silently, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Not enough, I have looked at the data recently, and the data has begun to be relatively smooth compared with the beginning, the upward trend is not very obvious, and the number of newly registered users has declined slightly compared with the previous few days, and we need to increase publicity." ”

Then Li Xiaoming turned his head to look at the personnel Wang Lu and said, "Brother Wang, have you come to apply for the program ape in the past two days?"

"Yes, I have a few resumes here, but I really don't know much about technology, and I may need you two small bosses to interview in person. Brother Wang said, handing over several resumes in front of him to Li Xiaoming.

"Chen Wu, take a look, it's appropriate for you to talk, I still have to work overtime to write the trading platform and embed it. ”

"Okay, are you going to write it in the form of a game feature or something else?"

"H5 is embedded, and there is no need for game functions, so the updated data package can be added with a button. Nowadays, many players are still on the Internet with phone lines, and the update package affects the game experience. ”

"Yes, then I'll leave it to you, Brother Wang, you can make an appointment for these people to come to the company for an interview this afternoon, I looked at the resumes and they were not bad. ”

"Okay, then I'll call them. Brother Wang listened to Chen Wu's words, immediately stood up, gathered the documents in front of him, turned around and walked out of the conference room.

"Brother Tong, our company's books have been relatively tight recently, but at the end of the month, a large amount of money will definitely come in, and then we need newspapers and some websites to publicize and report, you and the administrative Sister Zheng and Sister Liu will cooperate to make a plan, and it is expected to invest about 1 million. In addition, when the company started before, there were some external accounts, but this time they were counted together, and we cleared the liabilities. It's not a good feeling to owe people money. Li Xiaoming said with a grin.

"Hehe, okay little boss, then let's do the math. ”

"Brother Tong, wait, and as for the newspaper office, we only need large newspapers, small ones don't need them, and don't think about the headlines on the front page, it's too expensive, we can't afford it, and we can't buy it. Anyway, as long as you buy a newspaper, most people will read the newspaper to the end, as long as it is not a place like the middle seam. ”

"The little one doesn't need it, why?" Brother Tong was a little puzzled at this time. It stands to reason that small newspapers actually have quite a large audience, and they are cheaper than large newspapers.

"Hehe, the big newspaper has reported it, our game is so popular, the small newspaper itself will create topics to promote for us, in this case, why send them money?" Li Xiaoming said proudly: "In addition, since we can come up with a particularly good result at the end of the month, Sister Zheng, you will contact the district committee of the high-tech zone, beat their autumn breeze, and trouble them to arrange a TV station to report the report." ”

"You!" Sister Zheng shook her head with a smile, stood up and walked out of the conference room with Brother Tong and Sister Liu.
