Chapter 827: I Know a Hammer (Asking for Votes)
"Boss, you are so happy, do you already know?" Su Tong was surprised when he watched it on the side, the boss had just woken up, how could he seem to have known everything.
"Got it?" Lin Dong didn't know why.
"'Jedi Eats Chicken' has already been reviewed." Su Tong took out a document and faxed it half an hour ago.
"Uh~uh~uh" Lin Dong didn't swallow a bun.
Su Tong hurriedly handed Lin Dong's soy milk to him, which was regarded as saving the life of the wizard master.
"Mr. Lin, don't you know?" Su Tong couldn't figure it out, you didn't know what kind of fun you had early in the morning.
I know a hammer.
"When did it happen, why did it suddenly pass the trial." Lin Dong drank soy milk and finally recovered.
Auror, the elite of the wizarding world, the greatest wizard king in this world, if he chokes to death by buns, then he will be a dead man.
And it's also a vegetable bun.
"The audit conclusions that I just got this morning are ready to go online." Su Tong handed over the document.
Lin Dong flipped through the document and saw the seal that made him dazzle.
It's not easy to get the version number of this game from the cat factory, on the one hand, it's the nationality of the game production team, and the content of the game.
Logically speaking, there is almost no chance of passing the trial.
But this is a cat factory after all, and there are constantly various departments to greet and intercede, and after being beaten back for the first time, the cat factory provides two modified versions, one for internal sales and one for external sales.
In particular, the improved version of the internal is very sincere, at least within the psychological line of the audit body.
In the end, "Jedi Chicken" passed the review, got the version number, and can be sold on the meow game platform.
Deceptively simple.
In fact, it is the result of many efforts.
The batch of awesome people in the Blue Hole worked overtime for several all-nighters, and I almost died of exhaustion.
"Mr. Lin, everyone admires you very much, before there were some peers outside who said that you spent a billion yuan, and as a result, you bought a game that could not pass the review, purely to eat and support, now it seems that they are all wrong, whether this game can make money or not, at least it shows your eyesight and courage." Su Tong never patted the boss's sycophants, she just conveyed mechanically.
She connected with the company's video in the morning, and it was basically a compliment.
"To prevent addiction, especially this kind of game content that is both guns and kills, if there is really any social news, we will be in big trouble." Lin Dong breathed a sigh of relief and began to put obstacles in the way of this game, which was said to be a hit.
A considerable number of players in the game are children, and if you cut this piece, you don't believe that it can still become popular.
"I will convey your meaning to Director Xu Changlong." Su Tong nodded very seriously.
"How's the platform doing now?" Lin Dong now regrets making this game platform very much, just as Jack regrets establishing Ahri's father.
"I'm sorry, I'll connect you with Mr. Xu and Mr. Li now."
shouldn't say it herself, or don't know enough about it, Su Tong rarely oversteps her bounds, she made a phone call, skillfully operated, and Xu Changlong and Li Changwei appeared on the computer screen.
Celebrations can be postponed, and the boss is more important.
Lin Dong looked at the few buns that were left, and finally decided to say while eating.
No matter how bitter it is, it can't be bitter, and it can't be wasted.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Lin wants to know how the meow tour platform is doing now?" Su Tong conveyed the question.
"Mr. Lin, now there are 1,327 games on the meow game platform." Xu Changlong knows it well.
"Where's Steam?" Lin Dong asked.
"From the data I have available, in 2016, there were 4,207 games released on Steam, which is 38% of all Steam games at that time. This is a huge leap from the 2,964 games released in 2015 and the 1,772 games released in 2014. In 2013, only 565 games were released on Steam. ”
"We've only just started, and we have 1,327 games?" Boss Lin was taken aback.
"Mr. Lin, in fact, thanks to your insistence on being a platform, I have been thinking about one thing recently." Xu Changlong said with emotion: "In the past, I always felt that piracy ruined the stand-alone machine, and some of the recent phenomena of meow games made me understand that it is actually the channel that determines the survival of the game." ”
"I ...... that I insisted on being wrong, and I regret it."
"The old channel distribution model restricts the development of stand-alone games from many directions, stand-alone games and personal computers are bound, directly limiting their own user groups, so that users without computers have become non-target groups, and the distribution model I did before has seriously increased the cost and scheduling difficulty...... "Xu Changlong feels that he has been in this industry for so many years, and he is not as thorough as Mr. Lin, a layman.
Users are lazy creatures, in addition to being cheap, they will also covet convenience.
Pirated disks can be installed with one click, but genuine games have to lose CD-key, engage in registration, and even keep the disc inserted when playing.
And what eventually kills pirated CDs is not genuine consciousness, but network downloads.
The Internet has eliminated discs with a better experience than piracy, and players can get the game without even having to leave the door.
So, what is the way out for a single machine?
It's the platform!
It is the platform that Mr. Lin insists on.
A few years ago, when online games and mobile games ruled the world, there were some signs of revival in domestic stand-alone games.
In 2015, Steam supported Huaxia currency payment, which directly changed the distribution model of domestic stand-alone games.
In fact, foreign single-player games have survived and developed to this day, on the one hand, because of the existence of the console platform, and on the other hand, because of Steam.
Steam has two characteristics that make it extraordinary:
First, the whole process is networked.
Second, the game can be purchased online.
Players can not only buy online, but also exchange game ideas and recommend games here.
Through the centralized distribution of the Steam platform, users can simply and directly complete the process of "finding" - "paying" - "downloading" - "game".
Small game studios get the opportunity to publish at a low cost, users get convenience, and it's much easier to pay.
Of course, Steam didn't really make it to China.
The benefits of stand-alone games in China are not the greatest, and most of the games that have risen on Steam are foreign games.
At most, Steam treats Huaxia as a market.
After the meow game was launched, it quickly won a group of stand-alone studios and paying player groups with a channel fee far lower than that of Steam, as well as strong promotion.
As Xu Changlong said, Meow You now has 1,327 games.
Among them, 1191 are domestic games, and the rest are imported from abroad, and the quality is generally far inferior to Steam, but the quantity is close to the level of Steam in 2014.
This is definitely an excellent result for a new platform.
"What I admire most about you is that the platform has made some small studios that are struggling to make ends meet make a profit, and we have also made a good profit from it." In the end, Xu Changlong slapped another.
