If professional gamers want to survive, then professional leagues must be held. Just like the professional basketball league, if there is no league, then professional players cannot survive, and people can't show you for free every day.

Now the Tang Dynasty network just has this opportunity. Taking advantage of the popularity of Counter-Strike all over the world, the Tang Dynasty Network took the lead in opening a professional league, and I believe that it will not be long before this league will form a business model of its own. Chen Jiayi is confident that this situation will soon come.

Because, in Chen Jiayi's planning, this year, if everything goes well, there will be a WCG competition. I believe that after the WCG is over, the concept of professional leagues will definitely be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

When Tang Dynasty Network began to sell Counter-Strike, a multiplayer shooting game, domestic teams of all sizes were also established successively. In particular, several large companies in several coastal cities in Guangdong are said to have allocated funds and are starting to form their own CS teams. Looking at the situation, it seems that the scale is much larger than the "reincarnation team" of the Tang Dynasty network.

Chen Jiayi was secretly happy about this news.

If there is a merchant sponsorship, the help for the CS league is naturally very great. Now that the league has not started, domestic businesses have seen the profits, which is commendable. However, it is now the sales period of Counter-Strike, and the domestic "Counter-Strike" team has not been tested by time. Moreover, the technical level of CS in China is still in the learning period. It will take at least another two months for Tang Dynasty Network to officially start planning this league mechanism.

The main task of the current Tang Dynasty network is still to focus on the domestic propaganda of the counter-strike.

In fact, as early as when Liu Sichen took the Counter-Strike team to the E3 Game Show, major domestic media have reported on it. In particular, the term "professional gamer" has caused quite a stir in China. Not to mention, when Tang Dynasty Network came back with a world Game of the Year award. Not only the online media are competing to report, but also the traditional media, which also reports on the game of Counter-Strike from time to time.

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty Network has achieved relatively good results without much effort in this propaganda.

In just three days, Counter-Strike sold 500,000 units.

This statistic has just been released, but it has caused quite a stir. This is beyond anyone's imagination, because with the beginning of the Internet, single-player games have begun to decline. Major single-click game development companies, some of which have developed a product in three years, may not be able to sell tens of thousands of sets. 500,000 sets, maybe they will have a celebration banquet.

Later, people concluded that the reason why Counter-Strike was so successful.

On the one hand, it may be that the whole country is paying attention to this matter, and on the other hand, it may also be related to the pricing of Counter-Strike.

With such a cheap genuine game, as a game lover, how can you not spend money on it? Even if you buy a pirated copy, the price at this time will be at least a dozen yuan. It's better to spend a few more dollars and buy a genuine version, which can be regarded as making a due contribution to the national game industry.

For Tang Dynasty Network, when the sales data of 500,000 is counted. Chen Jiayi, like the employees of Tang Dynasty Network, was greatly surprised.

Chen Jiayi didn't expect that the performance of the market would be so enthusiastic.

In his original plan, although he also believed that setting the sales price of Counter-Strike at 49 yuan would be very beneficial to the promotion of the game, and it would also cultivate the awareness of gamers to be authentic. But he didn't expect that such a low-price strategy would cause a crazy rush of domestic game enthusiasts.

No one knew that this was an unintentional move by Chen Jiayi to accidentally lower the price just to cultivate genuine awareness. Slowly developed to the end, domestic software also began to move towards low-cost sales. Of course, in the low-price sales, their profits not only did not decrease, but increased more than the sales of later generations.

This kind of comparison, in the world, I am afraid that only Chen Jiayi knows. Even in the future, when Chen Jia became famous, every time he recalled, he had to sigh, "How wise the low-price sales strategy I set at the beginning." ”

……。

After the end of New Year's Day, it officially started operation. Until now, Chen Jiayi has basically not managed much. Just after the end of Counter-Strike, Chen Jiayi received a message from Bao Jianfeng. ,

It is said that from tomorrow, the trial of the online VIP payment system will begin.

This system, Bao Jianfeng actually planned it a long time ago, but it has always been not implemented. On the one hand, it may be that others did not see the future of this online payment, and on the other hand, Baojianfeng at that time was not in a position to implement it.

Now that he has, Bao Jianfeng has finally begun to implement his online VIP payment system.

For this plan, industry insiders are not very optimistic. They believe that this online payment model, even if there are hardcore readers rushing to support the author's originality. But this number will also be very small. With such a business model, whether the website can be maintained is still a question mark.

However, on the side of Bao Jianfeng, he has his own ideas.

Since its operation, under the influence of the ethereal journey, more and more Internet readers have begun to transfer to the station. Moreover, during this period of time, after the introduction of the signing system, there have been many excellent works, which have been recognized by many players.

In particular, the opening of the support function, originally many readers rushed for money, just to support the "ethereal journey". However, after watching the Ethereal Journey, they are also looking for some other books to read, and every time they see a book they like, they will also cheer for the author to support him.

After the opening of this function, it greatly attracted original writers on the Internet. After all, the opening of this function provides a new manuscript fee model for the majority of original creators. After literature has the temptation of profits, more and more original writers have entered one after another.

Among the various data of people, Bao Jianfeng began to try VIP network payment. Now for him, it can be said that he is confident. In the previous planning path, Bao Jianfeng only felt that this was a way out at most, and he could try it. But looking at it now, Bao Jianfeng firmly believes that this path is the right one.

Naturally, this plan has also received strong support from Chen Jiayi.

Because he knows that when a large number of authors start to create originals, that is when online literature is booming.

I remember that in the past, when Chen Jiayi was doing game planning, he accidentally mentioned it to his friends, saying that under what kind of model should literary works be in order to survive forever?

At that time, Chen Jia didn't think about it, so he said directly, "Only by commercializing literary works, then whether it is real literature or online literature, he can leave it down well." ”

And this business is talking about the path of professionalism.

Just like the professionalization of work in real life, for authors, writing is actually a profession.

Nowadays, it is a good platform for literature and business. Of course, this literature may not have much literary value. Sometimes, Chen Jiayi will call this kind of online literature online entertainment. Just like movies, music, etc. in the entertainment industry, he also appears in front of players in an entertaining way.

For Chen Jiayi, this original online literary platform is a platform for literary entertainment.

Moreover, this platform is built on the Internet, and he can give anyone a chance. If you want, you can also tap the keyboard and code the story in your heart. After all, no one is a natural writer, and a large number of Internet gods in later generations also began to try to write when there was a shortage of books. Using this as an opportunity, he became a big red writer.

Like blood red, Tang family three less, dancing, tomatoes, potatoes...... These great god writers on the Internet, it is the online reading platform that gives them an opportunity, and in this way, they have achieved their great god path.

In the face of so many favorable factors, the pilot system of VIP network payment has finally been finalized. Among the first batch of books on the shelves, there is only one book, which is Chen Jiayi's "ethereal journey".
