Chapter 138, the heat of the game
The addition of Zhan Jing and Wu Yuan doubled the efficiency of the game.
Because everyone discussed this game before, they could only make an appointment to collectively go to the QQ group or voice chat room, but it was chaotic when chatting, so the efficiency was not high. And Wu Yuan's addition this time alleviates some of the pressure on Chen Xu, and Zhan Jing is responsible for the encryption of game data - because if it is not encrypted, then such a game will be easily intercepted and analyzed by others, and then make a plug-in for swiping money and experience - like a legend back then.
Chen Xu's attitude is enough to make many game companies ashamed.
Because in the current environment, many game companies have casually come up with an idea to develop a small online game, and then directly promote it. On the one hand, it is claimed to be forever free, and on the other hand, it is desperately distributing paid props, which is completely the kind of person who takes a ticket and leaves.
The vast majority of these games are garbage, with a lot of bugs, vague and inconsistent details. Compared with Chen Xu, their student work team has to go through a detailed analysis of the price of each prop, and it is far from the attitude alone!
And as the time for school is getting closer and closer, most of the animals in the computer interest group have returned to school early to work hard to tackle the game.
It's just that among this group of people, until the official start of school on the 16th of the first month, there are still a few fewer people.
Several seniors have already gone to internships at this time, and when they come back, that is, in June, they will submit their dissertations and complete the defense, and the four years of college life will be over.
It's just that Chen Xu and the others don't have the heart to launch the emotion that there is one less person in the dogwood now, because the game has entered the final beta stage.
In fact, as early as the beginning of 2007, web application plug-ins such as the popular competition for parking spaces and Happy Farm have not yet appeared in China. Even at this time, domestic web games were just getting started.
According to the original idea of Chen Xu and others, it is to make this "My Home, My House" into a web-based game link and hang it on the community network, but share it with the user information of the community network - that is to say, there is no need to register another user information, and the new account for this game must be registered through the community network. In fact, the original idea was based on a relatively readable web game.
But after the game was finished, Gao Xiaojie contacted X, who mysteriously appeared to help, and asked them to help take a look - this is certainly to make X's people depressed to death, because how can they have the time to help a group of students make games?
But depressed is depressed, this sycophant still has to be filmed. Because the people of S don't get oil and salt, if you want to make a fool of yourself, you can probably only go through the road of Gao Xiaojie. So for this girl, not only did X not dare to have any ideas, but had to do everything possible to please her. Although this hurt X's self-esteem too much, when Gao Xiaojie came to the door, they couldn't be perfunctory.
So the people of X helped them modify the client, from the original web format to the web embedded plug-in format based on flash technology. The biggest advantage of this format is that this game is completely embedded in the community network in the form of a plug-in, and users can directly click on the plug-in to play while interacting with friends in the community network, which greatly increases the interaction of this game.
And after the next half a month of intense internal testing, several bugs found in the internal testing were modified, so on March 20, that is, the day when the second dragon raised its head in the second lunar month, this "My Home, My Room" finally officially landed on the community network and became the first official social game in the domestic SNS community!
The development path of the SNS community is originally a process that has been hailed as "virality".
For example, most of the users of the SNS community in the early days of China used friend invitation to register to spread, which is an important embodiment of people-oriented.
In the early days, this kind of SNS community was actually like some interactive websites, just taking a very ordinary way to interact with each other, such as writing a journal and uploading photos, and this interactive mode was very simple and ordinary, and there were no particularly novel ideas to bring friends together.
But the game "My Home, My House" quickly spread among users of the community network.
You can have your own house, your own garden, and the picture is very beautiful. The 3D model is not stuck at all, and the novel way of playing only needs to log in once a day to work, water the flowers, and so on. So quickly attract a large number of user groups!
Don't underestimate this seemingly simple game, although you only need to log in once a day to water your flowers and clean your room to improve your experience. But game developer Chen Xu, well, as a player who almost always uses modifiers to play stand-alone games, the first thing he does when playing online games is to find a guy with a plug-in, he naturally understands very well, there must be a large number of players like himself who are willing to be loyal to the process of rapid upgrades.
So when developing this game, in order to enhance the interactive surname of the game, Chen Xu deliberately left a "bug" in the game that can be used to brush money and experience.
It's not actually a bug, it's just that you can earn a maximum of 50 XP points a day by taking advantage of an interactive feature in the game to help clean up at a friend's house, water the flowers, etc.
Don't look at the lack of experience, someone will come to brush, open a vest by themselves or call friends to form a group to brush experience. Fifty points a day, ten days is five hundred points, and if you calculate it, it is much stronger than your own experience of slowly rising. And at the same time as brushing experience, you can also brush money, and there is no upper limit to brushing money every day - but Chen Xu and they tested it, if you brush money through this brush method, you can only brush more than 10,000 yuan a day - this is a huge amount of money in reality, but it may not be able to calculate anything in the game, and in the case of no experience, few people will have the patience to go crazy to brush money.
Sure enough, just a week after the game was launched, under the overwhelming advertising of the community network, the number of users of the game soared to 50,000, and the community network was originally an earlier and larger SNS community in China, which originally had about 100,000 user groups. Half of the people have joined the game - of course, 8,000 of the 50,000 people are newly registered users, which is the new blood injected into the community network.
Among these 8,000 people, according to the data, about one-third of them are self-registered vests, but excluding the vests, the number of users increases by 5,000 in a week, which is also a very remarkable number. And that number continues to grow.
A sudden increase in the number of people will inevitably lead to increased pressure on the server, and this number of people will not only be open to the web - the computation of the game will definitely consume more resources on the server than ordinary web browsing.
However, Zhong Ziyu soon announced that the community network had received a capital injection of 5 million yuan from Huaqiang Group, and there was no problem of server pressure at all. Huaqiang Group is Guan Yi's father's group. The last time I went to a five-star hotel, Zhong Ziyu discussed the issue of financial sponsorship with Guan Yi's father.
Although five million is a little less for a large website, today's community network is just getting started, and this money can be said to be a very critical initial capital accumulation.
Officials, at this time, you must not sigh at the accidental surname of history.
In the original history, the community network had just appeared for a period of time and then disappeared, for no other reason, that is, Zhong Ziyu, the founder of the community network, was accidentally infected with the rabies virus, and how did he have the heart to focus on his work at that time? So the community network has since fallen.
Invisibly, Chen Xu has changed history step by step, but will the change of history affect the supercomputer in Chen Xu's hand?
Chen Xu thought about this question, but he couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it.
It doesn't make sense to think about so much mess.
This time the game made Gao Xiaojie, Chen Xu and their development team a big hit - after all, the game needs hype, and the production team of "The Legend of Jin Yong's Heroes - Continuing the Frontier" itself is an excellent hype gimmick.
And the game is really interesting - for example, the farm, although the game basically only needs to click on the web page once a day with the mouse, which doesn't take much time at all. However, the addition of a stealing feature to the farm is very welcoming and frustrating for players.
Welcome, of course, is stealing someone else's stuff. The frustrating thing is to be stolen.
Many players are staring at their own crops and their friends' fields at the same time, and even frantically turn on the timer and stay up late preparing to steal other people's things - because almost all the money is earned from the farm, and stealing a dozen fruits at a time is thousands of dollars, enough to buy a square house!
The popularity of this game naturally attracted the attention of other SNS communities and even Tencent.
Because Tencent is also the most particular about this people-oriented interactive game, they are keenly aware of the great value that this game will bring. In addition to Tencent, other SNS communities are eyeing this game - after all, if you want to attract people, Tencent relies on QQ is enough, and these small websites that are just starting out are very desperate to need a game like this to stimulate the cohesion of users.
However, of course, it is impossible for Zhong Ziyu to give up this kind of egg-laying rooster, these people found Gao Xiaojie, but Gao Xiaojie said that they had signed a contract with the community network, and this game could not be transferred to other websites to operate. And they don't have any new ideas for the time being, they just don't plan to make a second similar community game.
It was these SNS communities who could only scold in their stomachs depressed and start copying themselves.
In fact, the most brilliant thing about social games like this is a new word.
At the beginning of 2007, at a time when the SNS community in China had not yet been able to form a scale, social games had just not yet had the opportunity to appear. This idea is actually very easy to think, so soon, similar social games appeared in the SNS community at home and on campus. For example, farming, buying a house, grabbing a parking space, and so on.
Although these community games have also urgently helped these SNS communities to gain some popularity, they are far less brilliant and shocking than "My Home, My House".
One thing I have to admit is that the technical gap between the two sides is too big!
Such a 3D model game is embedded in the web page in the form of flash, and all the computing power is placed on the server, and this kind of game is estimated to require at least 100 MB - how can such a "large" game exist?!
Won't Gao Xiaojie, they ask SMMAH to be a foreign aid again, right?!
Regarding this technology, Gao Xiaojie just smiled and said that there were experts to help him when he was interviewed by the media, as for who it was, whether it was SMMH or not, Gao Xiaojie used the Spring and Autumn penmanship and skipped it.
In this case, it can only make those websites who want to see how to get this technology through the way to cry out in vain, and behind them is God!
However, it is true that some people are very dissatisfied with SMMH's eccentricity, and the administrator of a small website wrote a gunman article called: "Is Gao Xiaojie SMMH's illegitimate daughter?" The text is almost ironic. But just two hours later, the site was hacked and shut down.
And the administrator of the small station also got up, and went to build a server set up in North America to open the website with interest, and then criticized SMHMH all over, and also wrote a lot of stories that SMMAH and Gao Xiaojie had to say...... Then this administrator was invited by the mainland to drink tea in the bureau, and his website was immediately closed even in North America.
Because of a word from x.
This administrator needs to rejoice, because he was born in the country. If it is abroad, under the direct shadow of the X force, it is not a simple thing that can solve the problem with a cup of tea.
And the spread of this matter is not large, there is a gag order for X abroad, and at home, the mainland with such strict media control will not spread any news. It's just that many high-level media officials have gotten the rumors and understood that SMMH is very important to the country now, in order to avoid getting burned, those paparazzi, gossip, scandals, these eye-catching things, if you don't want to die, it's better not to use these things to hype.
So Gao Xiaojie didn't know about it at all, the game was basically busy, and now she didn't need to worry about it. So now, it's the cake shop that she's worried about.
Renting a store, buying equipment, applying for various certificates, and then learning the practice of cakes, Gao Xiaojie is so busy now that he almost sticks out his tongue.
What made Gao Xiaojie very unhappy was that she was busy with life and death, but Chen Xu and Guan Yi didn't know where to go to play. As for things like cleaning the storefront, I can't find them at all.
But fortunately, with Wu Yuan's coolie, Gao Xiaojie smiled proudly, as long as Tang Bixuan is here, he is not afraid that Wu Yuan will not take the bait. Sure enough, as soon as Gao Xiaojie "ordered" Tang Bixuan to do something, Wu Yuan immediately grabbed it and solved it himself, and finally made Tang Bixuan feel a little distressed, Gao Xiaojie and Zhan Jing hid aside and laughed secretly.
And what are Chen Xu and Guan Yi doing now?
In fact, it's not like Gao Xiaojie thought, Chen Xu and Guan Yi are together now, and Guan Yi's goblin is not clear where Chen Xu went, but Chen Xu is now nesting at home and brushing the battlefield with Zhong Ziyu and the two of them.
Of course, this brush battlefield is not playing World of Warcraft, but the scores of the two of them brushing the red guest battlefield together. At the same time, Chen Xu was following Zhong Ziyu to learn the hacker's offensive skills.
Although Gao Xiaojie's offensive methods are changeable and flexible, because this girl's basic knowledge is too poor, she is at best an entry-level level, so she has not yet given Chen Xu guidance at that level. But Zhongzi's language is different.
As a more experienced hacker, Zhong Ziyu estimated his strength, basically belonging to the middle and upper level in the Red Guest Alliance, this level is not high, and it is naturally not low to say low. For Chen Xu, now from Zhong Ziyu, he can learn a lot of useful things.
It seems that Chen Xu relied on software when he invaded in the past - yes, a lot of software was written by Chen Xu himself, but the response of software will always be slower than that of real people. A true master generally uses commands.
For example, the ipconfig command that displays the configuration information of the internal IP protocol of the host where the user is located, the most common and powerful command to complete network work in the WindowsNT platform, this command can establish an IPC connection, map the disk to open system services, etc., including the creation of a user account.
Then there are at commands, tel commands, ftp commands, etc., these commands play a particularly important role in attack and defense, and what commands are used in what situation, what to do, this is the embodiment of a hacker's advanced quality.
Chen Xu's ability in this area is much worse, and the most important thing is that his hand speed is not fast enough.
Chen Xu's basic computer knowledge has become more and more consolidated and perfect after learning the Chinese language. Although it is only half a year of study - but will the result of a Chinese learning Chinese for half a year and learning English for half a year be the same?
Obviously impossible!
A primary school student can write an essay with affection after learning Chinese for half a year, so let him learn English for half a year? I can't even remember a few words!
It can be seen from the simple game that Chen Xu can now read to make such a 3D model, and now his skills are at least quite good among students, and many of the commands in the network attack and defense are in English, which makes Chen Xu's memory a little complicated, so the efficiency is a little lower - because the output of the Chinese language is through the Chinese language assembler in Chen Xu's hand, which is not used on other servers, so this content, Chen Xu also needs to strengthen learning - this is what Zhongziyu evaluated, An important reason why Chen Xu's basic knowledge does not match his offensive and defensive abilities.
And another point is that Chen Xu's typing speed is not fast enough.
In particular, the input command requires some special characters, and for many hackers, they are more proficient in the keyboard position of this special character than the keyboard position of ABCD. And Chen Xu has a good understanding of the position of ABCD on the keyboard, but if there are special characters, you basically need to look at it with your eyes.
What are hackers of the same level competing for?
Immediate reflexes and the speed with which commands are entered!
If you type the ping command one second earlier than others, then you may find the other party's IP address, and if you are so late for such a second, it is likely that the other party will be disconnected and escaped.
Xiao Min has never talked about this piece of things, and he has never mentioned it.
Now Chen Xu finally understands why Xiao Min refuses to teach himself hacker attack and defense techniques, because a computer is a computer, and it always needs to be run according to a program, and the profession of hacker is far from being solved through some programs..................
