Chapter XXVII
After Fang Xiao returned to the dormitory, he sent a copy of the scanned text of the statement to the forum, then turned off the computer, picked up the broom, and began to clean the dirty room......
He kept busy in his hands, and his mind kept turning, taking what he had seen, heard, and learned in the past few days as a reference, repeatedly thinking and summarizing what he had seen, heard, and learned in his previous life, and pondering in which direction he should develop.
In the past few days after the crossing, he was very confused and passive, everything he did was arranged by others, he went to Sacred Heart High School for an interview, which was arranged by his "father", and went to the twilight bar for an interview, which was arranged by Jordan, what he wanted to do, what he wanted to do, what he should do, he had no bottom at all, and he didn't have a definite plan.
As a crossing party, Fang Xiao has many choices, he can be a gold medal producer like Li Zongsheng, a self-written and self-singing king singer like Jay Chou, a songwriter who plays the world like Huang Zhan, or a wandering singer......
No matter which one he chooses, he can have no worries about food and clothing, and live a very nourishing life, when a person has no pressure to survive and no obsession in his heart, he will be at a loss. How good is it to go with the flow......
This is like a rich idler who already has a house, a car and a wife, and suddenly wins 5 million, what should this money be used for? Buying a new car? Investment fund? Or start a company? It seems to be all right, but none of them seem to be necessary......
While Fang Xiao was working, he let all kinds of thoughts fight and fight in his mind, those thoughts that were not firm enough were killed one after another, and only two were left in the end.
One is to use the songs in your mind to be a star, pick up girls, and be an entertainment celebrity......
One is to use the songs in your head as capital, start a company, and be an entertainment tycoon who knows his word......
The two thoughts fought back and forth, and after fighting to the extreme, they both fell in a pool of blood and merged into one.
After washing more than a dozen pieces of clothes and hanging them to dry, Fang Xiaoti's back pain and legs were weak, and he was sweaty, and the cold symptoms of headache and brain fever seemed to have healed without medicine.
Fang Xiao is an otaku with a ** personality, he doesn't like to socialize, and he doesn't like to show up as a public figure, so after crossing over, he subconsciously resisted being a star, and wanted to develop behind the scenes. However, tonight's permitted move made him understand a truth, that is, when you are afraid, you can insist on yourself, ignore the requirements of others, do whatever you want, don't like the spotlight, you can go to the show without going out of the show, and it's useless to force anyone.
In that case, why not do it both at the same time, and do it together?
After he figured out the joints, his thoughts flowed through and all kinds of inspirations followed.
You can go to a TV audition, but it seems to be the off-season for the draft lately...... It doesn't matter, you can post a single directly...... Records can also be released through crowdfunding...... When you become famous, you can set up a company and use the fan economy to promote online music radio stations......
Since the main music is in the short term, every song in my memory must be put to good use.
Fang Xiao found a pen and a piece of paper, and wrote down the names of the music he had been making up in the past few days in chronological order - "Nanping Evening Bell", "Scene in the Rain", "Let Tears Turn into Acacia Rain", "Change 1995", "Rose Rose I Love You", "Glass", "Love and Love Wine".
Then he began to evaluate one by one, ready to take out one song and post an online single to test the waters.
"Nanping Evening Bell" and "Rose Rose I Love You" already exist in the world, PASS......
The style and lyrics of "Scene in the Rain" are very old, and unless it is overhauled, it should not be popular, PASS......
"Let Tears Turn into Lovesick Rain" is a 2005 song, the lyrics are simple, catchy, and now singing should not be outdated, there is a potential for popularity, you can consider it......
"Change 1995" should be renamed "Change 2005", and I don't know what kind of lyrics Qin Fengyi wrote, PASS......
"The Glass" only plays the tune, retains the lyrics, and there is room for use, and this one is too feminine, PASS......
As for "The Wine Brewed by Love", the video of singing and begging to roll the sheets on that rainy night has accumulated a lot of popularity for himself, and singing it should be the easiest to become popular, is it to sing it yourself, or sell it to permission?
Fang Xiao tapped the table with a pen, and after thinking for a while, he showed a smile - the licensed band doesn't have a lead singer yet, why don't we all cooperate, they accompani, and I will be the lead singer?
The all-girl band doesn't have any gimmicks, and if they wait any longer, the covers will be flooded......
Discuss it with her tomorrow......
Fang Xiao thought for a while, and after planning the route for the future, he stood up and stretched, ready to sleep, and at this moment, a gust of wind blew on the balcony with the door open, blowing up the paper with the name of the song written on it, and landed on the ground that had just been mopped.
Bending down to pick it up, crumpling it up casually, and throwing it towards the trash can, the moment he threw it, he saw two figures huddled together, and then an inspiration crossed his mind like lightning.
1995…… 1+9=10…… 9+5=14…… 1014…… 2048……
"2048"!
Fang Xiao excitedly made a boxing move into the air, wasn't this the shovel that dug the first pot of gold?
He used to write applications, not game development, and after crossing over, he also checked, in this world, there have long been things similar to classic mini-games such as "Tetris", "Pac-Man" and "Bubble Dragon", so he didn't think much about games, and now, a few numbers reminded Fang Xiao of a mobile game before the crossing.
In February, before the crossing, there was a video called Threes! The game was put on sale on Apple's APP store, and the simple and innovative gameplay was unanimously sought after and praised by players and the media, and was also officially recommended by Apple, and soon became popular.
《Threes! The development is not simple, it took two independent game designers a year and a half to design, and the development log alone wrote more than 40,000 words, but it is a small and beautiful game, and the difficulty of development lies in the innovation of the gameplay, not in the program itself, so a few days after it was put on the shelves, a copycat of its game "1024! A few days later, a nineteen-year-old programmer spent a week synthesizing the two games and copycating them again to make "2048".
In Threes! 21 days after its release, "2048" was also on the shelves of Apple's APP store, in the first week of its release, it entered the top three of the game download list in the United States, and soon swept the world, in China and Europe have entered the top five of the download list, in just ten days, whether it is the ios version or the Android version, the number of downloads has exceeded 10 million, it can be said that it is popular in the world, everyone sees people playing, and it is addictive to playing, on the subway, on the bus, in the office, in the bathroom, Everywhere you look, you're swiping your fingers to make up the number of words.
The similarity between the two worlds in the past and present lives is very high, a popular game that closely follows the times in the past life, there is no reason why it is not popular in this life......
"2048" does not involve advanced algorithms, nor does it have too much code, and it is open source itself, so when it became popular, almost overnight, various mutated versions, such as the constellation version, Jin Yong version, dynasty version, luxury car version, etc., sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, Fang Xiao used more than an hour in his previous life to change a female singer version to entertain herself, so it was plagiarized without any difficulty, the only obstacle, It was that he needed to figure out the differences in programming between the two worlds first.
In my previous life, I was a programmer and my deputy was a guitarist, but in this life, I am a guitarist and my deputy is a programmer, which is not bad......
As a code farmer, staying up late is commonplace, Fang Xiao was completely sleepy at this time, he turned on the computer again, searched, and sure enough, there was no game similar to "2048".
Finally let me find the key to make a quick fortune!
Close the browser, click on the software programming and development tools that were good yesterday, Fang Xiao compared those computer books, and began to plagiarize "2048".
When the day was exposed, Fang Xiao finished his work and successfully got "2048" out, but it's only a beta version, the program is no problem, you can play, but the interface is not beautiful enough, it needs to be fine-tuned, and this is only the computer version, if you want to transplant it to a smartphone, you still need to toss it again, after all, the mobile phone operating system in this world is not ios or Android......
Manipulating the mouse, testing and playing a few rounds, it was very smooth, and there were no bugs, and then Fang Xiao stopped and began to think about how to use "2048" to make money.
In the previous life, Threes! is charged, $2.99, $1.99 on sale, and 2048 is free, there are free to play, who is going to spend money? So when "2048" came out, "Threes! has become a tragedy of "getting up early in the morning and catching up with a late set", which has gained a good reputation, but has not gained much money.
Or something like Threes! The same, pay for downloading, before the copycat version appears, how much can you earn......
Either like the various variants of 2048, it's free to download, with built-in ads or paid items......
It's a dilemma!
In the era of big data, when there is enough reference information, it is possible to judge which model is better in advance, but as a crossing party, Fang Xiao knows very little about the mobile game market in this world, and he cannot make an accurate judgment.
However, Fang Xiao didn't dwell on it for long, he has now figured it out, crossing is crossing, ability is ability, he is not an all-rounder, don't think about playing a single machine and eating alone, what he is not good at, he should be handed over to professional talents to do, he only needs to focus on the field he is good at.
Since you can't make the right choice, find someone to work together to make the cake bigger, and you may earn a lot more than you can earn by eating alone.
A game developed by an obscure developer must spend money to promote, otherwise it will be difficult to get ahead, and in the previous life, "2048" could be popular, and it was "Threes! laid a good foundation, and Threes! can be favored by the media and Apple officials because its developers are well-known in the industry.
Fang Xiao is not famous, so he has to spend money, in his previous life, if he wanted to brush a game to the top 100 of the Apple APP store, it would cost about 30,000 US dollars, although there is no Apple in this world, but the mobile phone market pattern is about the same, and the promotion fee should not be much different.
Fang Xiao has no money to do market research, let alone promotion, so finding someone to cooperate is the best way, because "2048" is very easy to be copycated, so once it is released, it will have to spend money on marketing, quickly become famous, cause a sensation, grab that oral soup to drink, so as to make a lot of money, if you bury your head in playing a single machine, there is a chance that you will repeat "Threes! became the front wave that died on the beach.
I wonder if I'm not interested in this game?
Or can she help introduce an interested buyer?
No way, the scientific and technological level of the two worlds in the past and present lives is too close, "2048" is a game with a very low programming threshold and pure creativity to win, Fang Xiao really doesn't dare to hold it in his hands for too long, and now he only has permission to be such a rich and business-savvy friend, although Zhao Zihao is also a rich second generation, he seems to prefer to enjoy life......
