Chapter 161: Hacking
"This is the data in our backend. Xia Shiyu leaned over and skillfully tapped a few keys on the notebook, and then turned the screen to Jiang Chen, with a rare smug smile on her face.
This is a server management program designed by Yao Yao, from which you can intuitively monitor the memory and flash memory in the server.
25.27 million registered users.
Don't look at this number of people, because the current Future People 1.0 implements the registration system of one person and one number, so there is no such thing as a small account in the "New Era" based on the Xiaobai account.
That said, these users can roughly tell how many people are playing the game, unless you have two smartphones.
The reason for killing the trumpet is also very simple. The main purpose is to prevent those studios that make money from registering a large number of small accounts, destroying the internal economic balance of the game and occupying server resources. After all, "New Era" is the same server across the country, and it uses cloud computing technology to move the data that should be calculated on the user side to the server. Even if you use a server that has been modified by Yao Yao, you have to bear a lot of operating load.
"The peak number of concurrent online users is 15.03 million, and the average number of concurrent online people is 8.14 million, which is nothing short of a miracle. Xia Shiyu couldn't help but speak.
"What about profitability?" Jiang Chen then asked.
He is also very concerned about this innovative profit channel. Does this innovation fit into the market? Even though he knew that the game had only been running for two days now, it was a bit too early to say anything, but he couldn't wait to ask the question.
Xia Shiyu smiled slightly, held the mouse and clicked on the screen.
"This is the total amount of current auction house liquidity, which has exceeded 14 million. According to the 5% handling fee, the cumulative revenue in the first 24 hours has reached 700,000. β
"So many?" Jiang Chen said in surprise.
His surprise was not the 24-hour gain, but the total amount of funds that reached 14 million on the first day. On the one hand, this reflects the enthusiasm of players for this game.
"It's only going to get more and more," Xia Shiyu's tone was a little excited, and her voice trembled a little, "At present, the player's ability to obtain gold coins is still low, and there is a huge gap in gold coins. The exchange ratio of gold coins to RMB has even been speculated to a high price of 1:5.6. β
After hearing Xia Shiyu's words. Jiang Chen was stunned for a moment, but instead of being carried away by joy, he became a little alert.
"You say, could someone deliberately manipulate the price of the auction house? Flipping up the gold and then attracting players to hoard it and sell it in large quantities?"
Seeing Jiang Chen mention this question, Xia Shiyu also frowned.
"I've thought about it, but for now. The people in the operations department couldn't come up with any particularly good plans. Some people have suggested referring to China's stock market system to set up and down limits for gold coin trading in auction houses to prevent excessive speculation. There are also proposals to set up a bank or other institution inside the game, and when the price of gold coins in the auction house deviates from a certain range, it will sell or buy back the system's gold coins. However, both approaches have their drawbacks and are still under discussion. β
Hearing this, Jiang Chen almost didn't laugh out loud.
"Are you going to turn my epic fantasy masterpiece into a financial masterpiece?"
Xia Shiyu was stunned and looked at him in confusion.
"Ahem, just a joke to get to the point. About the in-game economic balance. We might as well broaden our thinking. Since the auction house in our game is a bit similar to the securities, it's strange that you can ask a group of game operators to come up with a solution. We can refer to the practice of V Society when designing the video price of Duota 2, and directly invite someone who studies finance to participate in the management of the auction house?"
After listening to Jiang Chen's suggestion, Xia Shiyu's eyes also lit up. The problem that had plagued her for a long time was actually solved by him with a word, which made her look at him twice.
"What are you looking at me?" was a little embarrassed to be looked at, Jiang Chen touched his nose and smiled.
"I just suddenly realized that you're actually quite smart. The pretty face like the flower of kaolin smiled.
Jiang Chen was stunned, and then replied jokingly, "I also suddenly discovered that the way you laugh is actually quite beautiful." β
Cheeks are slightly red. Coughing slightly, Xia Shiyu diverted the topic in a little panic.
"Well, on the other hand, the fashion system currently open in the mall only has a revenue of 150,000 yuan in 24 hours. However, this number is expected to gradually increase as the game is operated. There is also a one-time purchase of warehouse expansion, which set a record of 24 hours on the first day of operation of the game, 421W yuan, but this number is estimated to fall after the new users slow down, which is the income of two days of operation. β
As she spoke, Xia Shiyu held the mouse and clicked on a dialog box and showed it to Jiang Chen.
The revenue in two days was as high as 10.41 million yuan. Looking at this number, Jiang Chen gasped.
Take the revenue of 10 million in the past two days. "New Era" can already kill the vast majority of mobile games that still hovering below 10 million in seconds. If we maintain this momentum of simultaneous growth in profitability and user volume, it will not be a dream for "New Era" to exceed 200 million monthly turnover.
Then count the income of Future Man 1.0, and remove costs and taxes. Futureman Technology Company has become a large company with a monthly profit of more than 500 million.
After hearing this news, Jiang Chen was naturally overjoyed. Immediately, he said that every employee of the project team would be given a big red envelope of 10,000 yuan.
"There is a boss like you who is diligent in handing out red envelopes, and I am afraid that the people in the project team will rely on your red envelopes to eat. Looking at the happy expression on Jiang Chen's face, Xia Shiyu couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth and quipped.
Jiang Chen laughed and said, "I'm afraid that the employees of the company can't wait for me, the chairman, to come to check the post." β
Just when Xia Shiyu was about to complain to him, "Then you will come every day", the laptop on the table suddenly flashed a red warning icon.
Jiang Chen was stunned when he saw this, but Xia Shiyu sighed as if he was used to it.
"This is the twelfth time today, and the morning is more intensive, and here it is again. β
"Hacking?" Jiang Chen frowned.
"That's right, yesterday was even more ferocious," Xia Shiyu said helplessly, "At first, our technicians were ready to deal with it as if they were facing a big enemy, but it turned out that those attacks couldn't even break the firewall that came with the server, so we didn't care about it." Speaking of which, how do you remove this warning prompt? Force the volume to be turned on every time, and it will also occupy the center of the screen. β
Just kidding, if you can break it, it's hell.
Jiang Chen secretly complained in his heart.
"Ahem. I'll just go back and let the overseas technical team adjust it. "Just take it back and adjust it to Yao Yao, this is easy to solve
Just as Jiang Chen and Xia Shiyu ignored the hacker warning on their laptops, in an apartment building 100 kilometers away, a man was wearing a black tracksuit. A man with deep bags under his eyes that looked like zombies, his fingers were frantically tapping on the keyboard.
The green tendons on his arms bulged, and the bloodshot eyeballs almost protruded. The pale face under the hood and the small stature that could be called him looked like a minor in every way, and yet he showed the speed of his hands. I'm afraid that professional writers will be ashamed of it.
Of course, his profession is not a writer, but a hacker.
"How is it possible, how is it possible!"
There are lines of code reflected on the pupils, oh no, or rather, gibberish.
The tapping of the fingers stopped, and more than thirty red crosses flashed on the screen.
No matter how many times you try, the result is the same, and there must be a professional team of no less than 10 people on the opposite side who is responsible for cybersecurity.
As his hands left the keyboard, the room fell silent for a moment, except for the hum of a few boxes of fans.
"Ahh I can't beat it," Xie Lei raised his head, leaned back on the computer chair decadently, looked up at the ceiling, and muttered to himself, "Also, to be able to develop something that goes against the sky like artificial intelligence, it makes no sense to think about security work and be vague." β
took out his mobile phone, stretched out his finger and poked Xiaobai's stomach boredly, looking at Xiaobai's cute giggles. Xie Lei couldn't help but smile.
To be honest, he didn't have any hostility towards that futuristic technology.
To be able to develop such interesting software
However, at this moment, the phone suddenly remembered when I saw the caller's name. The smile on his face instantly turned cold.
[Caller: Black Dragon]
"Hey?" answered the phone, Xie Lei said coldly.
"How's it going?" said the black dragon laughed.
Of course, Black Dragon is not his real name, and hackers revealing their identities are equivalent to being stripped naked and thrown on the street. Who hasn't done one or two illegal things? Exposure means "death."
Thinking that the other party had the "evidence", Xie Lei's expression struggled, but he still took a deep breath and said. "The strength of Future People Technology is too strong, even if I try my best, I can't even bypass the firewall. You're in this business, and you know how hard it isβ"
"I advise you to be serious, this time for a big man. For the sake of the two of us who have known each other for so many years, it has become a matter of giving you 20,000 yuan of pocket money. The black dragon interrupted him and continued slowly.
"Hehe, twenty thousand, when have you been so generous. Xie Lei said sarcastically.
The black dragon, who is usually reluctant to even give up a few thousand yuan, is actually willing to take out 20,000 yuan? I'm afraid that this time, the price offered to him by his boss is not less than one million.
"Don't talk nonsense, do you want to love, Lao Tzu looks at you pitifully and throws you two bones, are you still choking? Let me tell you, Blue Bird, or Xie Lei, if you can't do this well, you can wait for me to find the door." β
With that, the black dragon hung up the phone.
Taking a deep breath, Xie Lei threw his phone aside and buried his head in his knees.
Bluebird, it's a resounding name in the hacker world. However, Xie Lei in front of the computer screen is just an ordinary teenager.
"Damn!"
The fist slammed into the table.
Xiaobai on the screen of the mobile phone is shrinking uneasily, because the camera can't shine, it can't see the expression on the owner's face at the moment, and can only analyze that he is in pain from the sound wave.
Just when Xie Lei was in despair, a small hand suddenly put on his head.
"Brother?" whispered a young girl, who was also petite, standing behind him.
Her face is also pale, but her face shape is quite good, and she belongs to the healing type. The only thing that's a pity is her colorless pupils.
She couldn't see.
Xie Ling, his sister.
Xie Lei put his hand on the small hand, held it tightly, and said with a smile.
"It's okay, my brother is here. β
Although he also knew that she couldn't see the smile he was pretending.
But even so, the girl smiled softly.
"Don't get too tired. β
Looking at the smile on his sister's face, it was obviously so healing, but there was only sourness in his heart.
"I heard my brother say, my brother and brother received another business today, the boss is very generous, and the remuneration is 20,000 yuan. β
"Wow, my brother is amazing. The girl's hands were folded in front of her chest, and she opened her mouth slightly in surprise.
"Well, my brother is very powerful, so I will definitely cure your eyes. Xie Lei struggled to keep his voice from choking, and his fingers were firmly clasped on the armrest of the chair.
He wasn't afraid of going to jail, he had long had enough of the black dragon's mercy.
However, what made him unable to let go was his sister Xie Ling, if he went to prison, the only income of the family would be cut off, let alone cure her eyes, and even his life would not be guaranteed
Taking a deep breath, Xie Ling had already made up his mind.
Although there is little hope, now the matter can only be given a go. (To be continued.) )
