Chapter 7: Rebirth of Parents

Swing your phone from side to side, staring intently at the screen, swiping your fingers up and down on the screen from time to time.

This is the trend that has been trending on the subway recently.

Although the subway in this area is more developed and more modern, it is still impossible to cover the mobile phone network in the short term.

Even...... If there is really a mobile network signal on the subway, maybe some people will say that their hearts are not ancient, you see that there are so many people in Europe and the United States, aren't they all honestly and obediently reading books and newspapers on the subway?

Those people would never say that in fact, Europeans don't want to read books and newspapers, it's just that for various reasons, their network construction is not in place.

After all, the subway is the territory of the subway company, and your telecom company will have to spend a lot of money to come in.

Speaking of the recent popularity of this video game, "Temple Run" can be said to be the mainstream of popular games in this recent stage.

Because of years of cultivation and nurturing, I am relatively more accustomed to paying for video games.

Therefore, although there is no so-called physical version of the game "Temple Run", the price of 2,000 yen is not too expensive. As a result, more than one million copies were sold in less than two months.

That's a million copies!

You must know that the total sales of 10,000 mobile phones in this book are basically such an order of magnitude. In other words, almost every user who buys 10,000 mobile phones has basically bought a "Temple Run", and such an excellent result really surprised the development company of this game, and also surprised many industry insiders.

Although they have already started to use 10,000 mobile phones, they have to admit that 10,000 mobile phones are indeed very attractive.

But they didn't expect that in such a short time, a game with sales of more than one million would appear on 10,000 mobile phones.

This momentum reminded them of the past about fifteen years ago, a game platform fifteen years ago.

That game platform is the red and white machine platform.

The original red and white machine platform, at the very beginning, including Nintendo itself, was not very optimistic.

At least, Nintendo's optimistic direction is just that it wants to make its own games, rather than opening up licenses for other manufacturers to make games.

After all, the Atari 2600 corpses were still hot before.

It wasn't until later that because the sales were too good and the demand of players was too strong, other manufacturers had to be introduced, and the royalty system was forced to come up, which created a new era.

It was a great time.

The royalty system is also a great one.

Not only Nintendo itself is using it, but Sony is also using it, and Microsoft is also using it.

It's just that such a system certification for quality has come to an end here in 10,000 mobile phones.

Wanhu Mobile is a platform that doesn't care about the quality of games.

You need to make sure you don't put inappropriate game content or viruses in your game, so your game can pass the review.

Some people will ask, won't Wanhu mobile phones do this, won't it fall into the rut of Atari?

Truth be told, no.

Why not?

The reason is simple.

That is, because the distribution platform of Wanhu mobile phone is Wanhu App Store, and the review power of Wanhu's app store is naturally controlled by Wanhu, which can effectively avoid those duplicate and garbage games, as well as the emergence of games that are not conducive to the development of the entire platform.

In addition, the other is the Wanhu App Store, which is a completely online platform. There is no offline part.

Even...... What's even more interesting is that those offline physical distributors who would have come to Wanhu for trouble because of online platforms have not been able to find Wanhu's trouble on the platform of Wanhu mobile phone this time.

Why?

Because the core of Wanhu mobile phone is the element of the Internet.

Without the Internet, would all the software be packaged on a USB flash drive and sold one by one?

In addition, Wanhu has stipulated that all the software must not only meet the design standards of Wanhu. In addition, Wanhu also requires that all software must be constantly updated and iterated to maintain a good user physical examination.

Otherwise, Wanhu will lower the rating of this software, even if the download of this software is higher than others, it will also lower the ranking on the ranking because of the weight.

As for why this is done, it is because it is necessary to force many manufacturers to update their software.

Whether it is the production of software or the production of websites, most of the time it adopts the outsourcing model.

This can certainly reduce costs, but another problem is that if you outsource, there will be no follow-up updates after outsourcing.

And without follow-up updates, there is no harm if there is no comparison, and users of this book do not know what is good and what is advanced.

Under such circumstances, the software industry will continue to lag behind.

This is not a problem for 10,000 households, after all, the software of the book is not good, and the software of other countries will also enter the store of the book.

When the time comes, an all-round hanging will be formed.

However, in a short period of time, in order to create a good user experience for 10,000 mobile phones, this must be done.

A "Temple Run" has caused the entire video game industry to burst with enthusiasm that has not been seen in nearly a decade.

Why is this so?

The reason is simple, it's not that Sony's PS sales are not good, but that the cost of opening is too high.

And for a game like "Temple Run", which sells one million sets on 10,000 mobile phones, how many people does the development team need and how much development time does it take?

With less than ten people and less than two months to develop.

In other words, on the platform of 10,000 mobile phones, there is another possibility of small and large.

This is a very good thing for game companies that are not in a good economic situation right now.

As for the creativity that this kind of game values, everyone has been doing it for so many years, who hasn't had the idea of designing a game?

In short, there are fewer and fewer games that reproduce fried cold rice, and there are more and more fresh and fun games.

The entire industry seems to be bursting with vitality again.

Even, those young people in the industry have seen new hope.

And what people fear most is that there is no hope.

Even, for Takahashi, whom they have always looked down on, some people have begun to tout it at this moment.

After all, they got food from Takahashi.

It is said that Takahashi is their reborn parent, and perhaps none of these people will object.
