"Oh, my God." Looking at the real-time data in the background, Fang Yunhai was excited and couldn't believe the facts in front of him, he knew that "Wild Story" must be very popular in China, but the enthusiasm of the players was obviously beyond his imagination, how long has it been, more than 180,000 people have entered the game in less than three minutes, this is really crazy, too incredible, although he doesn't know the specific data of other games, but he believes that this has definitely created a record for domestic open beta games to land players at the same time.

Taking a deep breath, Fang Yunshan immediately said to the assistant beside him: "Let the technical department and the technical team of Shuguang Network be ready to deal with the server load operation and emergencies caused by full users at any time." ”

As the top person in charge of Dawning Games, he knows that now is not the time to be excited, and the most important thing now is to ensure the normal operation of the game, so that players who enter the game can get the best trial experience.

"Okay, Mr. Fang." The intellectual assistant wearing rimless glasses replied succinctly, and then turned around and walked towards the technical department, in order to cope with the public beta of "Wild Legends", Dawning Games has recruited dozens of technical personnel in the past period, but considering that the technical department has not been established for a long time, beware of problems in the public beta, after Fang Yunhai's application, Lin Yuquan specially asked Dawning Network, which has the strongest internal technical strength, to dispatch technical personnel to support, and then Pan Hongchang specially transferred a technical team composed of 25 technical elites, Sent to Dawning Game Technical Support.

"I don't know if the boss is still making movies?" Thinking like this, Fang Yunhai dialed Lin Yuquan's phone.

"Oh, has it already exceeded 200,000?" Lin Yuquan had just finished filming today's scene, and immediately smiled after receiving Fang Yunhai's call: "Very good, it seems that Lao Fang's guess about the first day of the public beta can be realized today, but I hope your guess about the official charge operation can be realized, okay." For now, when I get home and have a multi-party conference call, you'll have to do everything you can to keep the beta up and running. ”

"Okay, boss." Fang Yunhai Road.

After ending the phone call with Fang Yunhai, Chen Daoran's phone call also came in, and it was only ten minutes. More than 80,000 players have poured into the Treasure Island server, and the good news has made Lin Yuquan's originally good mood even better.

At this time, the passage of time was no longer a painful torment, but excitement and excitement, and every once in a while good news sounded in his ears.

At 8:10 a.m. Korea time, the number of simultaneous online users exceeded 200,000.

At 7:15 a.m. Kyoto time, the number of simultaneous online users exceeded 100,000.

At 7:20 a.m. Kyoto time, the number of simultaneous online users in Japan exceeded 300,000.

At 7:30 a.m. Kyoto time, the number of simultaneous online users in China exceeded 500,000, and the number of simultaneous online users in Takajima exceeded 200,000. South Korea exceeded 300,000 online at the same time.

At 7:40 Kyoto time, the number of simultaneous online in China exceeded 600,000.

At 7:50 a.m. Kyoto time, the number of domestic simultaneous online exceeded 700,000, and the simultaneous online number of Takajima exceeded 300,000.

At 8 o'clock Kyoto time, the number of simultaneous online users in China exceeded 1 million, and that of South Korea exceeded 400,000 online at the same time

For Lin Yuquan, Dimen Games, and Dawning Games, such explosive data growth is naturally great, but for other online game companies. But it's like a bolt from the blue.

"How many users of our games are online right now?" In the Kyoto Perfect Building, all the executives of Perfect World gathered in the conference room. Paying close attention to the situation of the game "Wild Age", the projector in the conference room clearly displayed the scene after the game landed, Chi Yufeng, chairman of Perfect World, asked Li Tao, the vice president in charge of game operations next to him, with a solemn expression.

""Zhu Xian", "Red Cliff", "Pocket Journey to the West", "Hot Dance Party", several games have experienced varying degrees of user decline, and there are currently about 120,000 fewer than the same period yesterday." Li Tao said with an ugly face.

"This is just the beginning. Looks like we're going to have one more formidable competitor soon! Chi Yufeng sighed.

Hearing Chi Yufeng's words, all the executives present looked extremely heavy, this is indeed just the beginning, after all, "Wild Story" has only started public beta today, and it will be a period of time in the future. There is still a lot of room for growth in the number of users, which means that Perfect World's game users will continue to decline.

Not only that, but what makes the situation even more grim is that with the success of "Wild Story", it is impossible for Lin Yuquan not to vigorously enter the game industry, as long as he thinks of the other party's big money in the film field, everyone suddenly feels deep pressure.

"As you can see, the quality of the game is very good, coupled with Lin Yuquan's own strong influence, it seems that the situation is far more serious than we originally expected, and I believe that Lin Yuquan will make a big move soon. In order to respond effectively, in addition to finding ways to retain existing users, we must invest more in game development, and the 7 games currently under development will not be adjusted for the time being, given our product line and existing game portfolio, I think we need to realign our strategic planning, and while continuing to develop games quickly in the short to medium term in the future, we also need to focus on strengthening the competitiveness of our core business by investing more resources in longer-term projects. Chi Yufeng said sonorously.

"Yes, but if you want to develop a large-scale game, you will inevitably need to hold a general meeting of shareholders and obtain the consent of the shareholders, and it is estimated that it will be more troublesome to pass at that time." Tang Wen, vice president in charge of game development, frowned.

"You're right." Chi Yufeng said that as a listed company, general decisions are made by the board of directors, and major decisions need to be held at a general meeting of shareholders, but he immediately said resolutely: "But no matter what, we must further improve our R&D capabilities." ”

"How many users of our games are online right now?" In the office of the president of the ninth city, the new president Chen Xiaowei asked.

"The three games have a total of 280,000 users online." Xiao Lei, the director of operations in charge of the game operation business, said bitterly.

"What, 280,000, nearly 200,000 less than usual, why is it so much less, didn't I let you launch a campaign to retain users?" Chen Xiaowei's voice rose suddenly, quite angry, can she not be in a hurry? As the new president, she has just taken over the company. As a game that has contributed up to 95% of the revenue of Jiucheng in the past two years, the loss of "World of Warcraft" is self-evident that the blow to Jiucheng is self-evident, and after "World of Warcraft" ceased operation, the company's revenue in the fourth quarter plummeted. There was a loss for the first time in three years, and the original situation was bad enough, but who knew that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and now it has encountered the strong arrival of "Wild Story".

"The campaign was launched this morning, but the popularity of Wild Tales is so high that our campaign can't retain users at all." Xiao Lei said dejectedly.

Chen Xiao glared at Xiao Lei with annoyance, angry that he would increase the morale of others and destroy his own prestige, but he couldn't help but feel a huge sense of powerlessness in his heart. If Wild Wild is just a poor quality game, then there is no need to worry about the popularity of the open beta today, but obviously, Wild Wild is not such a game, and what else can she do except hope that players don't like the style of Wild Wild? The activities launched for "Wild Legends" have a limit after all, and Jiucheng can make less money, but not lose money.

The same scenario is happening in Shanda, Tencent, NetDragon, South Korea, Japan, and Treasure Island. And the biggest loss among the game companies is undoubtedly NetEase.

NetEase's "Fantasy Journey to the West" is the game with the highest number of simultaneous online players in China, which naturally makes it the online game company that lost the most game users tonight. Compared with the usual loss of more than 500,000, it is shocking.

What made NetEase's management even more angry was that they tried their best to snatch the agency of "World of Warcraft" in the mainland from Jiucheng, due to some reasons, "World of Warcraft" will not be available for a long time in the future, and it is also a Western magic game, during this period. Presumably, a large part of the users of "World of Warcraft" will be lost to "Wild Story", so that after the server is launched, they will inevitably encounter a situation where the users of "World of Warcraft" have declined seriously, and the losses will be extremely heavy.

Lin Yuquan naturally didn't bother to pay attention to the troubles of other game companies. His mind was completely occupied by the succession of good news.

In the end, the highest simultaneous online users in South Korea reached 420,000 on the first day of public beta, 470,000 in Baodao, and the most terrifying was in China, with the highest number of simultaneous online users as high as 1.33 million, almost catching up with many games in a few hours, or even never achieving results.

Of course, this has something to do with the fact that "Wild Wild" is now too well-known in the world, and there must be many people who enter the game purely because of the three words "Wild Wild" and his own influence, and are not real gamers.

In addition, "Wild Story" is not likely to be liked by all players, many players only like martial arts games, and only like casual games.

Therefore, the number of people who are online at the same time during the open beta period is a completely meaningless number, and for a game with a fee-for-the-hour, the number of paying users after the official operation is valuable, which is different from a game with a fee for items.

"Boss, it's not early, just keep an eye on us, you can rest early!" Fang Yunhai said that on the first day of the public beta of "Wild Record", they, the chief leaders, naturally had to keep an eye on the whole process.

"Well, okay, on my behalf, I would like to express my condolences to all the employees who are fighting, and you will each hold a celebration banquet on a later day, I am filming, so I will not participate this time, but I will tell you that after the official operation, as long as the number of people online at the same time as you predict, I will personally invite everyone to dinner, if the results are better, then vacations and salary increases are not a problem." Lin Yuquan smiled.

"Okay, boss." "No problem, boss." "Boss, don't worry."

"Then I'll be working hard for you tonight." After the end of the multi-party conference call, Lin Yuquan sent a message to the second daughter, and followed him out of the room and walked downstairs.

"Are things going well?" Mother Lin, who was watching TV on the sofa, heard Lin Yuquan's movement downstairs, turned her head and said with a smile.

"Of course, it went very well." Lin Yuquan smiled.

"That's good, I'll give you a hot dish." Mother Lin got up from the sofa with a smile.

"No, I'll do it myself." Lin Yuquan hurriedly said, although there is a nanny at home, but the second elder, like him, likes a more private space, so he will let the nanny leave as soon as dinner is over.

Lin Mu smiled and shook her head: "Okay, you can do it yourself." ”

After dinner, taking a bath, chatting with the second daughter on the phone, and thinking about tomorrow's shooting plan, Lin Yuquan lay down to rest.

As for the European open beta of "Wild Stories", which will start soon, there are other people watching, so let's talk about it tomorrow morning!

Ten minutes after the start of the open beta, 200,000 players poured into the European server of "Wild Wild", and then the highest simultaneous online users in Europe reached 1.49 million, which is higher than that in China.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand that although the total population of Europe is far less than that of China, due to the more developed economy, its computer penetration rate is much higher than that of China, which makes the number of gamers in Europe in turn much higher than that of China.

The novel and movie "Wild Story", as well as he himself, also have a very high popularity in Europe, even so, in order to achieve better results, the promotion and marketing cost of "Wild Story" in Europe alone is as high as 30 million US dollars, and the global promotion cost is 60 million US dollars.

Because of this, "Wild Wild" was able to create an astonishing number of simultaneous online numbers as soon as it was open beta.

However, it's not surprising that Lin Yuquan can't help but be excited about this, no matter what, this is a good start, and the more players you attract during the open beta period, the more likely it is to create good results after the official operation.

"Boss, congratulations, the open beta of "Wild Tales" last night was super hot." "Director Lin, congratulations." "Director Lin, congratulations, more than 1.3 million users were online at the same time on the first day of public beta, which is incredible."

As soon as Lin Yuquan arrived on the set, he was immediately congratulated by the crew, and at this time, the East Coast of the United States, far across the ocean, had already begun the open beta of "Wild Story".

And the situation of "Wild Story" in the open beta in the United States has naturally become a hot topic between filming for the crew.

"1.27 million? Very well, on my behalf, I would like to express my condolences to all of you. After learning that the highest number of people online at the same time in the United States, Lin Yuquan still did not feel strange, and some were just excited, although the population of the United States is much smaller than that of China, but also due to the computer penetration rate, the total number of online gamers in the United States is not much less than that of China.

Just when Lin Yuquan was busy with the filming of the movie, the data released by various companies on the official website and the news released on their own initiative naturally triggered a bombardment of the media, and in the boiling of gamers and the shock of game companies, more and more players poured into "Wild Story".

The Los Angeles Times concluded its report by mentioning that "Wild Stories has once again created myths, made history, and has never had an online game in open beta so crazy, and this is not the end, in fact, the real myth has just begun." (To be continued......)
