Chapter 142: Ethereal Journey Open Beta

"In that case, then I wish Brother Lu good luck."

Chen Jiayi doesn't know if Lu Jiafeng has any background, if not, if he wants to break a bloody path in China's antivirus software, he can only use the rogue methods of later generations.

The so-called hooligan methods are the tricks of the famous "Zhou Hongyi" in later generations. Maybe you don't know him, then you should always know that the founder of 360 Security Guard, who is also the owner of the 3721 Chinese website, is known as the father of rogue software.

Looking at Zhou Hongyi's body, he is a gangster who has always pursued hooliganism. Whether it's 3721 or 360, a forcibly kidnapping user comes to him, and in the end, the user gets used to being kidnapped, and he succeeds.

I have to say that although this trick is shameless, it is very powerful.

Strictly speaking, Chen Jiayi is also a hooligan. However, Chen Jiayi is engaged in yang conspiracy. has always been showing a gun to fight you, and you have no choice but to do anything about Chen Jiayi. Therefore, from the rebirth to the present, Chen Jia has been laying out. Whether it is TT, or the Internet café integrated platform, or 17173, or Chinese network, until the current network battle platform.

At first glance, these may seem insignificant. However, once it has accumulated to a certain point, the power that erupts is absolutely earth-shattering, and no one dares to shake it. Just like the Internet café management system, with just one system, Tang Dynasty Network can control the domestic online game market.

Looking at this Lu Jiafeng now, he is obviously full of spirits, and he seems to be an upright person, disdainful of doing these small things. In this way, Chen Jiayi is really not optimistic about what great achievements Lu Jiafeng can achieve in the domestic market.

But it's okay like this, it's good to let Lu Jiafeng meet in China and break the bloodstream, and it's not too late for him to make a move when the time comes.

For a period of time after that, Chen Jia never discussed the company's affairs with him, and most of the time, he just chatted casually with Lu Jiafeng. Occasionally, some new concepts in antivirus software are mentioned.

For example, cloud antivirus.

Lu Jiafeng only remembers that when he was studying in the United States, the professor inadvertently mentioned such a word. However, he clearly remembered that the professor at that time said that this was only a theoretical concept, and no company had achieved cloud antivirus so far. Unexpectedly, the Chen Jiayi I met on the plane today was able to talk eloquently. Regardless of whether he is correct or not, at the very least, his cognition in this area is better than his own.

"Who the hell is this man?"

Originally, Chen Jiayi was very low-key, and Lu Jiafeng has been studying in the United States and has always been obsessed with the antivirus field. Now that I have returned from school and gathered a group of partners, I am about to enter the field of antivirus software. For everything else, I don't care. Yes, even the name Chen Jiayi is very loud in China. But for Lu Jiafeng, he didn't hear it either.

However, even if he hadn't heard of it, he remembered the name now. Maybe there is a chance that Lu Jiafeng will pay a special visit to him.

"Well, goodbye, if you need help, you can call me, here's my business card."

It wasn't until he got off the plane that Lu Jiafeng breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking at the business card with only one name and a phone number on it, Lu Jiafeng didn't know what to think.

The feeling of facing Chen Jiayi just now made him think that he had met a professor when he was studying in the United States. No, even his professor didn't put so much pressure on him.

After taking three deep breaths, Lu Jiafeng calmed down. looked at the exit, made a call to the classmates in China, and left.

……

"Guys, what's going on with the company these days?"

After going to the United States for more than ten days, Chen Jiayi finally came back. This time, he went directly to the Tang Dynasty network. Because, in the past few days, there is something he is looking forward to.

"Mr. Chen, WCG competition, each country has produced eight finalists. Next week, they will reach the quarterfinals. Legend has officially launched the public beta, and the sales of point cards are hot, with 30,000 copies sold. Ethereal has completed the closed beta and is now installing patches and updates......"

Gu Xiaoyu said a lot, all about the situation of the Tang Dynasty network.

"Not bad."

The performance is good in all aspects, and the end of the internal test of the ethereal journey is also in the original plan. Now that the patch is installed, the open beta will start next week.

As the first completely self-developed domestic online game on the Tang Dynasty Network, and it is also a game adapted from an online novel, Chen Jiayi said that it was not moving, it was a lie.

"Is the time for the open beta confirmed?"

"It's been confirmed, starting next Wednesday."

Well, it's okay.

"By the way, how are the other games on the market now?"

Ethereal Journey is about to open beta, which is something that cannot be ignored by any game company. Although Tang Dynasty Network is very popular, in the face of the competition of all games, Chen Jiayi does not dare to take it lightly.

"According to the current news, some games are ready to implement a free trial of 7 days of game activities during our open beta, and in the seven days, the game experience will be doubled, and there will be excellent equipment ......and so on."

In the face of the strong attack of the ethereal journey, some other games can only find ways to retain the current users. What is free seven days or something, if it were Chen Jiayi, he would do the same. Otherwise, what if a large number of people run off to play the Ethereal Journey.

"Our publicity activities still have to continue, what is the current situation of the world's No. 1 Cultivation Competition?"

"At the time of the closed beta, the National Internet Café Contest could not be launched due to the small number of members entering the Internet café. This time the open beta, we plan, from the first day, we have prepared a series of activities, such as, the level competition, etc., a month after the game, the official start of the national network competition. ”

It seems that after a period of internal testing, Zhou Xiaoqiang and others have a very good grasp of the operation of the game. It is also clear what kind of events will be held at what time. Asked this, Chen Jiayi nodded with satisfaction.

Everything in the company is doing very well, why worry about the game not being popular?

"It seems, everything is ready, everyone, let's take it easy, who will predict how many people can reach the highest number of online users of our ethereal journey?"

At that time, the legend was able to create 600,000 people online at the same time in 2002, and now Chen Jiayi has been reborn, and he has a huge advantage in the ethereal journey, and the reason is that he has reached a higher level on this. Moreover, during the previous internal test, the ethereal journey was also thoroughly promoted. With such a high popularity, if the ethereal journey is less than 600,000, Chen Jiayi will jump directly into the river.

"Why, can't you predict it?"

Seeing that a few people were a little unpredictable, Chen Jiayi laughed.

In fact, too, the three of them are directly responsible for the Tang Dynasty network, and this game has created such a big momentum, if they don't get results, they may not lose face. It's just that there is no test yet, and the domestic online game market has just begun, and there is no reference standard. In the end, how popular the ethereal journey can be, they don't know the bottom of their hearts.

"Just guess one, whoever guesses is reliable, after the open beta, I'll invite whoever to have a meal."

"Really?"

Until the company opened until now, Chen Jiayi really hasn't invited any of them to dinner.

"I predict that the public beta will break 100,000 on the day and 300,000 by the end of this year."

With the reward, Zhou Xiaoqiang was the first to say.

This number, in Zhou Xiaoqiang's heart, is very high. You must know that the highest number of online users in China is now the Legend of Jin Yong's Heroes. But the legend of Jin Yong's heroes is now only 100,000 people online at the same time. And Zhou Xiaoqiang's prediction of the ethereal journey has tripled on the data of Jin Yong's group of heroes.

"There are no dissenting opinions."

It's only 300,000, this, this, Zhou Xiaoqiang, how can you make me embarrassed.

Hearing the 300,000 mentioned by Zhou Xiaoqiang, Chen Jiayi couldn't smile bitterly in his heart. However, Zhou Xiaoqiang can't be blamed for this. Zhou Xiaoqiang is a person engaged in research and development, and he can say 300,000, which is already an overestimate in his heart.

"150,000 on the day of the public beta, and 500,000 by the end of this year."

This is Liu Sichen's prediction.

"Si Chen, you lion has opened your mouth."

Zhou Xiaoqiang's words are not a blow to the ethereal journey, but for such distorted data, there is obviously some disbelief. Because, since the opening of online games in China, none of them has exceeded 200,000. Coming to 500,000 all of a sudden, it is a bit ......

"Xiaoqiang, you are engaged in games, of course we don't know. You know, there are countless fans of a novel alone. Not to mention, we've been bombarded with the media all the time. ”

For this data, Liu Sichen seems very confident.

"Mr. Gu, what about you."

The external public relations work is planned by Gu Xiaoyu. However, Gu Xiaoyu's understanding of online games, among the three, is probably the weakest one. Perhaps, maybe the figures given by Gu Xiaoyu will make Chen Jiayi even more depressed.

Chen Jiayi thought secretly in his heart.

"On the first day of the public beta, it broke 250,000, and by the end of this year, it broke 700,000."

This is the prediction data given by Gu Xiaoyu.

When Liu Sichen and Zhou Xiaoqiang heard it, they both took a breath of cool air. This data, this data...... Neither of them knew what kind of exclamation to make, they just looked at Gu Xiaoyu.

"Oh, out of the three, why is your prediction so high?"

Chen Jia was curious as to why Gu Xiaoyu's prediction data would be so much higher than theirs. Could it be said casually, but Gu Xiaoyu is an extremely serious person who is very serious about his work, and he usually doesn't joke much, so how could such a sentence suddenly pop up.

"I believe in the strength of our Tang Dynasty network, and I also believe in the strength of the ethereal journey, and I believe that the ethereal journey of the book is ...... strength in the national market."

This is what Gu Xiaoyu said.

"Good, good, good...... I love this sentence. ”

For the data predicted by Gu Xiaoyu, although there are some differences with Chen Jiayi's prediction. However, now someone dares to shout 700,000 online, which is already very remarkable.

"It's better for Mr. Chen to make a prediction."

At this time, Liu Sichen said to Chen Jiayi.

"Me...... It's better not to say it. ”

Chen Jiayi pretended not to say anything, and lost their appetite. After repeated persuasion by the three of them, Chen Jiayi hesitated and said, "Alas, it's not me who hit you, I'm afraid the data I predicted will disappoint you." ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, you can say it."

Seeing that the three of them were very confident, Chen Jia knew it. The three of them, although they don't know what the Ethereal Journey can be, absolutely know that the Ethereal Journey can't be unpopular.

"Okay, get ready."

As soon as Chen Jia finished speaking, he wrote two pieces of data on the company's drawing board.

"The first day of the public beta broke 350,000, and by the end of this year, it broke 900,000."

This is the number predicted by Chen Jiayi.

The next day, the 17173 game portal broke out a shocking news.

"The author of the ethereal journey, Chen Jia, said wildly, and the test of the terrifying ethereal journey broke 350,000 online at the same time."
