Chapter 3: Resurrection from the Dead
I put down my phone and shook my head, what is the resurrection of the dead?
Is there a real saying that the dead will come back to life?
In order to take care of the idea of the rich, I had to define a special case in the game where money can bring people back to life.
But looking back, games are games, and if games and reality are 100% true, will it be possible for our game company to operate for a long time?
Even if a game is good, players will start to lose after playing at a certain stage, and many game companies are very realistic to make a lot of money first, and then say, if you want the game to continue to play forever, you are not tired, and players will be bored and leave these games one day. This requires online game companies to reinvent new gameplay and create new hot spots.
I opened the coding program software at this moment and started writing the city's police and SWAT system.
This can be regarded as a new highlight of the game. In addition to being an ordinary citizen, the player can also appear as an enforcer in the game in the future.
In the early days, the police and SWAT are naturally the NPCs of the game, controlled by the main server, and there will be free players to join in the later stage, after they accept the selection of the police academy and the SWAT, they will become a special group controlled by the player, they can patrol the streets, they can shootout with violent gangs, and they also have the same identity as ordinary players, and they can also return to their homes to find their friends to play after work.
And I also plan to open the vocational admission regulations for several other special industries at the same time.
In this way, there are not only businessmen and students, but also workers and white-collar workers, supermarkets and cinemas, as well as companies that make movies, and entertainment presenters on the radio.
This game will unfold its unique charm in all aspects.
A few days later, the game developer of "Virtual Time and Space", Stone Lida Network Media officially announced that it will open the functions of the twenty-four city classes on the main server on the 28th of this month, and players can join more updated classes to feel the reality of this virtual game.
For a while, radio and television were hyping up the craze for the game to be on the market for more than half a year. This news has undoubtedly given a shot in the arm to many players who are still waiting to see this expensive game.
Lowering the account sale price of the game from 488 to 388, and allowing unlimited people to buy it, depriving the black market of this game of the opportunity to speculate on the price.
As long as you have an ID card, anyone can get a client account for this online game at the game release store.
After logging in to the account, any player can get the game's character's subsistence allowance of 5,000 game coins to start the adventure of this game.
As a result, the game servers of "Virtual Time and Space" had to increase from the previous 200 groups to more than 1,000 groups.
The number of players logging in reached 12 million, and the North American server began to connect with the Chinese server, and the data exchange between the two terminal servers was balanced within two days.
Domestic players can take planes and ships to the North American continent to develop and work in the game. North American players can also come to China for sightseeing, tourism, investment and business.
Moreover, the game of "Virtual Time and Space" has opened the one-to-one exchange network function of game currency, and the real bank card can be converted into the corresponding amount through the game's banking system in the game, and it can be used and consumed immediately in the game.
Early in the morning of the release of the "North American Continent", the "Virtual Space" expansion, there were long queues in front of the game stores in various cities, with at least a few million players waiting for the release of the new game.
This day was also the only day I didn't stay at home, and was dragged by the car of Stone Lida Internet Media to the largest distribution store to sign autographs.
Not far from the store, the police and traffic police began to pull up a prohibitory line a few blocks away.
I had to walk to the vicinity of the game release store with a few bodyguards and staff.
Two wagons loaded with the game are parked in the backyard of the release store, guarded by ten SWAT officers.
A hundred beautiful girls in short skirts from Stonelida Network Media stood in four rows in front of the store.
Facing the crowd on the street, my head was sweating.
With the help of staff and police, I entered the store and sat down at a table inside the door.
The sales manager of Stone Lida Network Media saw that it was already 9 o'clock in the morning, so I cut the ribbon and began to sign the sale.
The staff handed me a box of markers, and I signed them one by one.
The beautiful woman standing in front of the store handed out the game client boxes one by one, and asked the players who bought the game to exchange the number cards in advance for their game client accounts.
Everyone is queuing up to get their account numbers in a very orderly manner. One by one, the players who got the account were shouting excitedly.
The sale work ended until 12 o'clock at noon, and the store sold 20,000 clients, and the last one I signed my name.
I tried to stand up with numb hands and legs, but I was dizzy and fell to the ground all at once.
Surrounded by a group of Stonelida network media staff who were in a hurry.
Anyone who signs 20,000 names in such a scene will do this.
Newspapers and evening news also broke the news with pictures of me fainting on the spot.
Fortunately, reporters were kept out of the hospital.
Some of the nurses and doctors took this item and wanted me to sign it. But they were all blocked out by the bodyguards.
It's so rare to be so clean, I still want to go back to my own home.
The text message rang, and on the day of the sale, Stone Lida Network Media put 15% of my income into my account.
On this day, 5 million copies of the game client were sold in China alone, and 7 million copies were sold in North America, each selling for $69, or $480 million.
291 million RMB and 72.45 million US dollars, plus 50 million US dollars for designing chapters of new games in North America, went into several of my accounts at the same time.
In just one night, I became a super-billionaire.
And Stone Lida Network Media gave me an extra Lamborghini sports car and four bodyguards.
And as the game producer and network operation CEO of "Virtual Time and Space" in China, I still have an annual salary of 20 million US dollars or 140 million famous coins.
This is still the profit brought by the first new client, and the profit generated by the later player recharge is constantly rolling in.
And the campaign to launch the new version of the client has not ended, and it will continue forever.
It is estimated that the number of players will increase by more than 30 million online games, which is currently ranked No. 1 in China.
That's more than fifteen times the two million people in the game's closed beta.
Of course, adding server units will also require a lot of investment, but this cost is only a drop in the bucket.
Stonelida Network Media, which was originally going to face bankruptcy, is now fat because of this game that represents me.
So Stonely, the boss behind Stonelida Network Media, although he has a daughter who is almost thirty years old and not very slender, he has wanted to hint at this red line several times.
Fortunately, after I saw the 120-kilogram jade photo of the "beauty", I threatened him with heroic perseverance and several suicide methods, and he reluctantly gave up.
At least the medical examiner didn't have a chance to see the programmer who was suspected to have been run over by a road roller.
Ten days after the sales frenzy had passed, I quietly lurked out of Bali and returned to my villa.
After closing the doors and windows, my four bodyguards slept in the living room with my four dogs all day.
For this purpose, I also specially added two group sofas.
A high-voltage power grid and surveillance cameras were added to the courtyard walls.
In addition, I bought a Sand Eagle pistol through a channel and put it in a drawer in front of me.
It's time for me to go inside and see what Virtual Time Games look like these days.
At this time last year, I came out of a domestic game company that had gone out of business, and I found several game companies that were closed.
The reason is very simple, I don't have a higher programmer education certificate, and self-taught people don't count as academic qualifications, so I was forced to go back home and use the remaining change to buy a lot of programming software books and old computers, and write the first scene of this "Virtual Time and Space" game by myself in a dilapidated house.
Fortunately, Stone Lida Network Company used to promote food, but Chinese people have not liked sweets very much in recent years, and in addition to the economic take-off of the Chinese in recent years, the middle of every white-collar worker is also rising.
Everyone is popular to lose weight. So Stone Lida Network Food Company had no way out, and when looking for a sales partner on the Internet, I saw a game merchant solicitation notice called Li Cheng.
After the boss of Stone Lida Network Company played this game, he felt very real and exciting, and opened several sets of server internal tests, unexpectedly, players began to increase more and more, in the first half of the internal test, free registered players reached 700,000 people, and there were several game companies who found this good game, and wanted to buy it at a high price from him.
Stoneley saw a business opportunity and immediately switched to Stonelida Network Media, where he made a lot of money when several wealthy kids used a lot of money to play the beta version of the game.
So when the official public beta was announced, a client was priced at 488 yuan. This is a very expensive online game in China, but in today's world, when the second generation of rich people in China has a lot of money and no place to spend, there will be no fewer people who invest a lot of money in virtual games, so this game is constantly being hyped up in the rich more than rich.
Rich people not only have brand-name sports cars in reality, but they can also drive supercars and bubble beauties in the game.
And in this virtual world, they are not afraid of the police arresting pornography, gambling and drugs.
So it's not for nothing that rich people love this game.
They spend money to buy freedom and arrogance.
So the game that the rich entered at the beginning, because a client's account can be sold for a lot of money, and many poor players have also intervened in this world, using the game characters to sell to eat, and the game has become popular, and the number of people is increasing.
White-collar workers are also involved in a large number of them, and they have become the main player group of this game, because they have a certain social foundation, and they are not short of money, and they can also simulate business and make friends in the game, and many white-collar workers who do not have friends of the opposite sex also plan to meet more people in the game.
Because this game is highly realistic and very open, this is the characteristic of the game that is a big hit.
After the incident in which the rich man was knocked over with a gun by a beautiful killer, more game crowds poured in.
They also want to experience the thrill of stabbing with a gun in the game.
They want to experience the virtual life of the virtual world.
