Chapter 1194: Zhong Yu's Conjecture
"Chairman, I suddenly have a discovery and conjecture, I don't know whether to talk about it or not!" Seeing that Boss Jia was looking at the data seriously, Zhong Yu suddenly said a little nervously.
"Say, I said I shouldn't talk about it, does it really make you stop talking?" Boss Jia rolled his eyes and said.
"Hey, hey!" Zhong Yu laughed dryly, "Chairman, I found that in the future, online games may be the future of the game industry, online games will develop into a pillar industry in the entire game industry, and it is also the most profitable game type, and the future game industry belongs to the era of online games!" ”
"Oh!" Boss Jia's expression was slightly surprised, then he raised his head, looked at Zhong Yu and said, "You go on!" How did you come up with this decision? ”
"Yes!" Zhong Yu saw that Boss Jia was interested, and immediately became even more excited, "I came to this conclusion by counting our income on "Diablo Online"! ”
"We now have 1 million registered players for our game, and the average monthly login time for these players is about 58 hours."
"And our average price of point cards is about $1 for 2 hours, so our income on point cards in these two months has approached $60 million!"
"Excluding maintenance costs and operating costs, Diablo Online has contributed more than $50 million in net profits to us in two months, which is a very scary number. And now that the number of registrations for the game is still increasing, and the point card revenue is still increasing, then there will be at least $300 million in net profits in a year. ”
"That's pretty close to Diablo's revenue."
"But now, the sales of "Diablo" have been reduced from one million monthly sales at its peak to only tens of thousands, and according to our calculations, there may only be less than 10,000 sales per month in the future, or even hundreds of sales, and the life span of "Diablo" is almost over."
"But "Diablo Online" is different, because we can continue to add patches to the game, update new game content, expand the fun of the game, according to comprehensive calculations, the game life of "Diablo Online" is at least 5 years or more, so that we can continue to earn a lot of income."
"So I think that online games are king in the future, although I can't see it now, but sooner or later he will have more than single-player games." Zhong Yu said loudly.
"Not bad!" Boss Jia nodded, in 1997, an era when a single machine was still king, this trend could be seen, Zhong Yu was indeed a top talent.
"Do you have any specific plans?" Boss Jia asked again.
"Yes, that is, now we are going all out to develop the online game industry and imitate the model of "Diablo"!" Zhong Yu immediately said: "We now have a large number of high-quality game IPs in our hands, which can be adapted into online games. ”
"Pokemon, in particular, is the most suitable game to change into an online game, so I applied to set up a special team to develop Pokemon Online and create an online game version of Pokemon."
"As far as I know, many Korean game companies are ready to move, and many Korean companies have begun to develop online games similar to Diablo Online, and once they withdraw from the market, it will have a big impact on us."
"So we have to walk on two legs and start the research and development of "Pokemon Online" at the same time, as long as the two games of "Diablo" and "Pokemon" are online games at the same time, it is equivalent to holding black and white swords in our hands, and we can completely dominate the global online game market!" Now with the increase in the number of people, what makes Zhong Yu even more happy is the number of people who pay
"Pokemon Online!" Boss Jia's expression is a little weird, in his previous life, because of Nintendo's stubbornness about online games, there has never been an OL version of "Pokemon".
Of course, the games of Nintendo in later generations can basically be played online, but there are no serious online games, and they are all additional online battle functions developed after purchasing the original version of the stand-alone machine.
I have to admit that in some things, Nintendo, a game company, is far superior to many game companies in the world, such as Nintendo's tireless and striving for perfection in games.
and sticking to the bottom line of single-player games, in an era when almost all game companies are online games, only Nintendo can stick to its original intention.
Even Boss Jia has to admire this.
So even in his previous life, Boss Jia had never played "Pokemon OL", and naturally the idea of turning Pokemon into an online game naturally did not pop up in his head.
Until today, it was brought up by Zhong Yu.
As a gamer, Boss Jia instinctively wanted to refuse. Turning Pokemon into an online game, isn't this ruining the purest part of your heart?
But as a capitalist, Boss Jia smelled an amazing smell of copper.
If "Pokemon" is an online game, it must be an unimaginably huge amount of income, such as "Pokemon GO", which swept the whole world in the previous life, which is a game event that can make all the mainstream media in the world, even Yang Ma also report it, and it's all money!
"You go and try it!" Boss Jia knocked on the table, "But you can't rush, you must carefully develop and make the best version of the online game." I'm going to review it myself, and if I'm not satisfied, then don't even think about it! We must be accountable to all Pokemon players! ”
"Yes!" Zhong Yu said loudly.
——————————
"Huaxia is really the most suitable market for online games in the world!" After Zhong Yu left, Boss Jia flipped through the latest report and whispered to himself.
Zhong Yu was obsessed with the amazing data of the global online game market, so he didn't notice the content of the Chinese online game market in this special report on online games.
In this report, when "Diablo Online" was just open beta, the players from Huaxia were only about 300 people, which was an insignificant small wave in the entire world server.
No, these 300 people are all players of Daqian Internet Cafe.
However, by the time of the formation of this report, the total number of dormitory players on the Huaxia server had exceeded 6,000, and the total number of online players at the same time exceeded 2,000.
What does this mean, it shows that the online game market in China has increased 20 times in just two months.
In the hands of Boss Jia, there is also a report sent by Bilibili, saying that they have received 9 businesses in two months, that is to say, 9 newly opened Internet cafes across the country have taken the initiative to find Bilibili, hoping to buy the authorization of Bilibili's Internet café management system.
This is still found in the initiative to find Bilibili Internet cafes, those Internet cafes that do not plan to buy Internet café management systems, and Internet cafes in preparation, the number is even more.
Boss Jia can be sure that in the whole 97 years, even if there is no big step, the Internet café will definitely start to burn in the whole of China like a spark, and the online game industry in China will also enter an amazing development speed from 97 years.
Legendary, this mythical game, will once again show his amazing ability to develop.
So much so that even after more than 20 years, there will be a large number of celebrities, carrying machetes in their hands, saying "If it's a brother, come and cut me"
"We are true legends"
"Dragon Slayer Knife, click to send"
Of course, with Boss Jia, there should be no legends in this era.
In fact, compared with the golden age of online games in the future, this era is actually the real golden age of online games, because there is only one online game in China, and this is only this era!
"It seems that online games and Internet cafes are going to be laid out immediately!" Boss Jia finally muttered to himself.
