Chapter 118: Blue is better than blue

October 9th.

The girls of 602 are back.

After playing for seven days, the six people brought back a lot of local specialties from Tianjin and Hong Kong.

Eat, play, you name it.

Tang Wan bought a pair of clay figurines with a golden boy and a jade girl, which is vivid, quite pleasing, real but not lacking in artistic sense.

Yu Ge and the others bought a lot of food, including twist flowers, ear and eye fried cakes, and two bottles of Jin wine.

The taste of the wine is not bad, but Don't Chang'an is a little unaccustomed to drinking, and he retreated in a row after only one sip.

Tang Wan noticed the jade Guanyin hanging around her neck by Don't Chang'an.

Don't Chang'an didn't hide it, saying that it was sent by Xu Jiaxin.

……

……

……

In the afternoon, Don't Chang'an went to the company and took a casual look.

Everything is normal, WO268 has jumped thousands of miles in traffic after the revision, and it is far ahead in the personal homepage.

Li Chen's joining, in addition to helping "Computer Butler", many times in "Chang'an Cloud", he also took a lot of effort, and with the increase in users, he also attracted a lot of cooperation.

Zhou Yang and Lao Gun made the webpage of "Chang'an Video", and recently they are studying the server.

In addition to these, Chang'an Network's three software, the advertising cost in the third quarter, don't Chang'an also got it.

That's less than 2 million in total.

……

……

……

At night

Bei Chang'an received two phone calls.

One was Zhao Ning called, and he asked Don't Chang'an to talk about advertising.

He tried his best in this matter, but the back door couldn't be opened.

If you want to be on CCTV, you have to participate in the bidding.

Prioritization, though.

The second call was from Wang Yifan.

He didn't say anything, just asked Bei Chang'an to go to the school to find him.

At eight o'clock in the evening, when Bei Chang'an arrived, Wang Yifan was already waiting for him at the school gate.

"What's the matter with me?"

Wang Yifan smiled: "I have something to discuss with you, let's find a place to sit for a while?"

"Okay. ”

The two of them found a café.

After sitting down, Wang Yifan said straight to the point: "Recently, online games have been very popular, do you want to make a profit?"

"How?"

Wang Yifan continued: "A few months ago, Li Ping and I found a private job outside, which is a studio specializing in the development of "Legend" plug-ins, and made some money. There are a lot of people who play that game, and while this momentum has not passed, you can definitely make money by developing a game of the same type by yourself. ”

"Do you have the technology to develop a game?"

Wang Yifan smiled: "I don't have it, but my buddy does, but we have ...... at hand."

"How much does it cost?"

"Before and after, why do you have hundreds of thousands, are you interested? I know, these hundreds of thousands should be nothing to you, your studio is a lot of profits, right?"

Don't Chang'an took a sip of the fake Blue Mountain, and then said: "It's profitable, but the development of an online game, hundreds of thousands are not enough, you want to make a game, it's definitely not for love, okay? Don't say whether you have this technology, even if you really have, the effect of a game made by hundreds of thousands is not much stronger than that of a greedy snake." ”

Wang Yifan thought for a while and said: "Don't be, Li Ping and I have thought about it, just follow the "Legend", we have been playing the game for almost a year, I know the highlights of all aspects, and I have the confidence to make works comparable to "Legend". ”

Don't Chang'an said: "Online games are updated quickly, blindly follow the trend and imitate, it is difficult to produce results, and in the end, you can't even earn back the money for source code." What you can think of, others have already thought of it, a few online games released this year, you go and see, which is not the old routine of "Legend". ”

Wang Yifan was a little shaken.

Don't Chang'an said again: "You work hard to develop a game, imitating the legend, it's better to go directly to open a private server, isn't this more time-saving and labor-saving than you developing a new game? ”

"Private server?"

"Yes, don't underestimate private clothes. "Legend" players, what they are looking for is pleasure, and if your private server can satisfy them, then there is basically no big problem. Taking the name of "Legend" to open a server can not only save the publicity link, but you can also use it as a selling point, and if you do it well, you should be able to make a few years of quick money. ”

"But we don't have the source code of Legend?" asked, Wang Yifan.

"Look for more channels, I've heard that "Legend" is also coming in from abroad. ”

Wang Yifan exhaled and nodded incessantly.

Don't Changan thought for a while, and then said: "Maybe it's not true, now that some people abroad have started to operate private servers, I don't believe you can go over the wall and take a look, there will definitely be gains." ”

"Is it possible?"

"How is it impossible? There may already be people in the country doing it. If you want to do it, you have to get the source code as soon as possible, and then start operating, and it may be too late to delay. ”

Wang Yifan asked, "Why?"

"With the private server, Shanda will definitely find a way to deal with it and start a series of rapid version updates. In addition, the speed of the spread of private servers is absolutely amazing, and it is better to run in front than behind. ”

The development history of "Legend", Don't Chang'an remembers it very vaguely, because he usually doesn't like to play online games, but he is still somewhat impressed by such a popular game all over the country.

At that time, Shanda took a lot of measures in order to cope with the challenges of many private servers.

For example, the updated version has built-in wax-free and run-free functions in the client.

Although the plug-in players who don't open the blood display still can't see the health bars of other players and monsters, Shanda's concession has been warmly welcomed by all "Legendary" players.

It can be seen that Shanda still attached great importance to player opinions and user experience at that time, and it is precisely because of this attitude that Shanda is destined to continue to write its own legend in the next year.

On the other hand, a few years later, even if countless players are scolding Yueguan, they can't have any impact on Shanda's decision-making, and the future loneliness of "Legend" is inevitable.

After Chang'an finished speaking, Wang Yifan looked out the window and asked, "Is there such an exaggeration?"

Don't Chang'an nodded with a smile and said, "Don't underestimate the copycat ability of the Chinese people, and don't underestimate the strength of Shanda." The writing and establishment of legends is not accidental, so those of us who are petty and make a fuss, if we want to profit from it, we must be thoughtful and cautious. ”

Wang Yifan nodded and said: "In this case, I will call Li Ping out tomorrow, and the three of us will study this matter carefully, don't you, if this thing is done, you will also give our brothers what they mean, how much do you buy?"

"You want me to be a major shareholder?"

"No problem! you want to be big, I can't ask for it, you are the God of Wealth now. ”

Don't Changan nodded, "Okay, specifically, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Wang Yifan looked at Bei Chang'an and was overjoyed.

At this meeting, he always felt that his old classmate was not the same as before.

The confidence in his eyes wanted to cover it and disperse against the wind.
