When the three founders saw such a message from a player, they felt that all the efforts were worth it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info is like an author, there is a group of readers who patiently wait for his updates every day, and feel the joys, sorrows and sorrows with the characters in his novels, which is the greatest reward.

In fact, the game's data has far exceeded their expectations, and sometimes they don't even believe that the current data is their own game, for fear that it will be a flash in the pan.

However, after a few days of testing, they finally decided to bring up the time of the game's charge at the meeting.

"As you can see, the current data of our game has changed dramatically. I'm sure that none of the games currently being tested can compare to our War of the Three Kingdoms. Everyone knows the content of the previous agreement, so I now called Jian Hao to the conference room in advance and held this meeting with us. "Every night when Wu Kang is free, he will take the plan provided by Jian Hao to study. The more I researched, the more I felt that Jian Hao was not a simple person, and it would definitely not hurt to recruit him into his partnership team in advance.

Of course, Li Wei and Fan Zhiyi have no problem, they even have a dream-like feeling during this time, obviously their game is already on the edge of the cliff of life and death, but now it has become a game with very good data.

"I think it's time to charge for the game, our game is already a finished product, and even judging from the recent response, it's not too much to call it a boutique." Li Wei was a little excited, he was the director of operations, and only when he really charged did he really enter the main battlefield.

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time, and I really want it to come soon." Fan Zhiyi is also impatient.

"What about your opinion, Jian Hao?" Wu Kang looked at Jian Hao, who was silent beside him.

In fact, at this time, Jian Hao's thoughts drifted far away, and he thought of a game in his previous life, which could be said to be popular all over the country when it was hyped, and was known as the enlightener and pioneer of "adult" online games in China. The agency Haihong used 30 million yuan in publicity money to popularize the essence of "sexual innuendo" to Chinese players.

The Korean developer also seems to be well versed in marketing and publicity, and a large number of exquisite game posters, animations, music, etc. have been overwhelming, and the concept of its masterpiece has been brought to the extreme, and even overshadowed the limelight of the absolute masterpiece "Lineage 2" of the same period.

On the day of the test, it even broke the online record, with a peak of hundreds of thousands of people online. However, due to the quality and operational problems of the product itself, players were quickly lost. In fact, this game is a half-finished product to put it mildly, attracting players' attention with the gimmick of "adult online games", but not working on the content of the game itself.

Now Jian Hao's modified "War of the Three Kingdoms" does not have this problem, and the game itself has been tested for a long time, and the content of his own modifications has been repeatedly verified by the market, and it is not a problem to put it into market operation.

"No problem, we can slowly roll out expansions while we operate." Jian Hao's speech was very simple and expressed what he meant.

The four of them discussed the next details in the meeting, but the most important thing was to determine that the official charge time of the game was set at August 25, and the level of free game characters was set at 25, which is the most addictive level for players.

At present, the charging model of online games is still relatively backward, and it relies more on game point card sales channels, which will share part of the profits. Although Alipay has not yet appeared, it will come out soon, and if nothing else, in October 2003, Taobao will launch Alipay service for the first time.

However, it is estimated that it will be a few years before Alipay matures, and troublesome things like operation are fortunately Li Wei, and his connections in this area have indeed played a great role, making the operation of his game much smoother.

After deciding on the date of the charge, Flame Team Software Development LLC began its own promotion. In the past, it was mainly promoted within H Province, but this time it is promoted nationwide.

Although the promotion is not as strong as that of a company that specializes in operation like Shengda Company, it is very good to be able to promote the publicity to most Internet cafes at this time.

Another reason for the promotion during this time period is known only to Jian Hao himself, that is, there is a very strong online game that will be tested in the second half of the year, that is, "Fantasy Journey to the West".

Xu Bo, who once gave birth to another legend in the game industry, later became a gold medal game producer.

The original name of "Fantasy Journey to the West" was "Cinderella", and its "Wind Soul" engine was completed by the rewrite of "Journey to the West 1". Xu Bo was only a customer service staff at Journey to the West 1 at the time, and in the game industry, the conversion of the identities of game customer service and developer is actually not so easy.

Since Xu Bo was the customer service staff of "Westward Journey 1" at the time, he often faced the player's reaction to the game most directly, and he himself had been playing this game, so his understanding of the game can be said to be proficient. According to rumors, he submitted dozens of pages of revisions to the planning team at the time, and although it was not adopted, it was enough to show his love for the game at the time.

Later, it was precisely because of this attitude and love that Xu Bo basically made drastic changes in "Journey to the West 1", and there was a preliminary model of "Fantasy Journey to the West" in the future. At the beginning of the game project, because it was an unplanned project, there were only three people at the beginning.

This is very likely, after all, the engine has only been partially rewritten, and the plan has not completely overturned the previous gameplay structurally.

It was this project that later made Netease and, of course, Xu Bo himself.

However, even the reborn Jian Hao did not expect that after the first wave of advertisements for "War of the Three Kingdoms" was launched, it was sniped by Shengda Group.

Another Korean game "Eternal Legend" represented by Shengda also carried out overwhelming publicity on the second day of the promotion of "War Three Kingdoms", and the time of the public beta was the same day as "War Three Kingdoms".

Zhou Qing, R&D director of Shengda Group, will basically observe the latest movements of Yanzhi Software Development Co., Ltd. at any time, and for such a company that does not give him face, once there is a chance to fall into his hands, he will definitely take revenge.

When he saw the promotion advertisement of "War of the Three Kingdoms", he immediately contacted Chen Youcai, the director of operations of Shengda Group.

After that, this decision was made, and the game "Eternal Legend", which was supposed to be launched in December, was pushed out in advance, hoping to use this game to snipe at the Flame Team Software Development LLC, which was once reluctant to be acquired. It also took this opportunity to alert other small entrepreneurial teams and show the strength of Shengda Group's giants.
