Chapter 36: The Fruits of the Harvest
How many players are there in the whole of Huaxia?
In 2013 alone, the number of Chinese players has reached 517 million, exceeding the 317 million population of the United States, of which 147 million are core players, 27% of players play games for one hour a day, 9.7% of players pay for games, and the consumption of core players accounts for 70% of the revenue of the game industry.

It's 2016 and that number is only going to be more, not less.
Of course, in this number, there must be the majority of those who play online games, and mobile game players also account for half of the country, and there are not many people who really love stand-alone games and are willing to pay.
However, due to the large base, this so-called small number is definitely tens of millions of levels, not to mention that the platform compatible with "Mountains and Rivers Refining Immortals" spans three major markets, which is extremely attractive to mobile game players.
Just like Chu Ye predicted at the beginning, as long as the Chinese people can make a high-quality game full of sincerity, and domestic players who are used to playing shoddy production, the energy that can burst out will scare everyone.
is like "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage", which created a miracle in the film industry.
Sure enough, in just one afternoon, more than five million faiths were contributed!
In this number, the fiction side also occupies a pivotal position, producing at least one-third of the faith, and almost all the players who rushed to support it were transformed into fans of the novel.
A novel generated by a million faiths, is it idle?
It is foreseeable that after this wave of popularity brought by the game has passed, the novel side will become a stable source of his faith, because the game will always get tired of playing, but the novel can be serialized for more than a year, and the stamina is huge.
At 8 p.m., the time of all eyes arrived.
As soon as "Mountains and Rivers Refining Immortal Map" was opened for purchase, the servers of various download channels were blown up!
Although the major cooperative platforms have been prepared for this, they are still taken aback by the crazy enthusiasm of players, you know, this game is only 130M!
If the network speed is a little faster, it will be down in tens of seconds, and it can be crowded to this point?
They hurriedly asked technicians to add download channels to handle hundreds of thousands of simultaneous downloads.
Chu Ye and Zhao Yunpeng have been in front of the computer since dinner, and when they saw the crazy skyrocketing sales statistics at this moment, their faces were smiling, and their spirits were more and more excited.
As of 12 p.m., sales in just four hours have reached a staggering seven million!
Even if it is all counted as the 2D version of 49 yuan, this means 350 million sales.
After deducting the transaction tax, channel sharing, and the operating costs on the side of Moyun, the net profit that Chu Ye can get is ...... More than 200 million.
It's an insane number, but everyone knows it's just the beginning.
It was a night of miracles, and there were too many sleepless people throughout China.
Seven million players who bought the game had no sleep.
Staying up late to witness the grand occasion of the game media people sleepless.
Chu Ye, who became a billionaire, had no sleep.
Zhao Yunpeng, who has gained fame and fortune, has no sleep.
Liu Mingcong and other "developers" have no sleep.
Xia Lingfei, who can "buy, buy, buy" to her heart's content, has no sleep.
This night only belongs to "Mountains and Rivers Refining Immortals"!
The next morning, the game's sales exceeded 11 million, and the faith in Chu Ye's hands had exceeded 20 million.
As he expected, the double fans of the novel and the game can explode with double faith, and the extra part is because of the hypnotic properties of the two works, which has led to the generation of many hardcore fans, and even hundreds of believers.
This means that Chu Ye has become an intermediate illusionist.
The point is that the believer's contribution to the faith is too strongly directed to be taken away by the fantasy generator, but will be stored directly in his mind and can be called up at any time.
Therefore, the reason why aliens do not engage in religion is already coming out: they are worried about creating "gods" and eating themselves!
Chu Ye tried it, and the believer's faith could not be used directly like ordinary beliefs, because the purity was too high, they appeared a little viscous, and they needed to be "burned" to activate in order to release energy.
It can be said that the purity of this kind of belief is not far from the spiritual power that a believer like Xia Lingfei has worked so hard to condense.
As for the effect, it is undoubtedly amazing.
The speed of his brain was increased tenfold in an instant, and many details that he usually ignored were clearly visible, unlike the belief that he had exchanged for luck before, there would be many inspirations in his mind, and he couldn't help but think about some deep-seated questions.
The origin of the universe, the meaning of life, the value of life, the responsibility of social individuals, and the form that a higher civilization should have...... These questions, which do not usually arise, have surfaced one after another.
What followed was a frenzied hunger, not a physical hunger, but a spiritual thirst for knowledge, urging him to read and absorb the precious intellectual wealth of human civilization.
He finally understood what Cheng Xuan meant when he said that the belief in his works was biased towards the "intellectual" aspect.
This kind of belief is simply poisonous, and it makes him feel extremely shallow,
Philosophy? I don't understand!
Computer science? I don't understand!
Quantum physics? I don't understand!
Music? I don't understand!
Painting? I don't understand!
Now it seems that more than 20 years of wasted time have not learned anything, it is simply ignorant!
Guarding the treasure mountain without taking it upon oneself is a shameless crime!
Fortunately, there were very few beliefs used in the experiment, only a few hundred points, and this feeling lasted for a while before quickly dissipating.
Otherwise, once you are driven by that desire to devote yourself to learning, you will have to move the wisdom of the entire human civilization into your mind before you can stop!
But it's really fascinating.
It's like becoming an omniscient wise man, interpersonal relationships, career development, life planning, everything is so clear and clear, but it is also so boring, as if there is nothing in the world that can stump you, and you can't help but explore a deeper field.
"No wonder Cheng Xuan has become like that, it seems that he has been poisoned by faith." Chu Ye pinched his chin and muttered to himself, sitting at the venue of the World Mobile Game Conference, looking very absent-minded.
Because he used the health management function to "add BUFF" to himself, although he didn't sleep all night, his spirit was better than ever.
At this time, the meeting host on the rostrum looked at Chu Ye with a smile, stretched out his hand to him, and said, "Before moving on to the next agenda, please allow me to congratulate Mr. Chu Ye from the Galaxy Studio of Moyun Technology. Just now, China's first game "Mountains and Rivers Refining Immortals", which won a full score on IGN, has sold 15 million copies, and has received rave reviews from players and media. ”
Warm applause suddenly rang out in the venue, and domestic game developers cast admiring and envious glances at Chu Ye one after another, and most of them were proud of empathy.
Because, the World Mobile Game Conference invited a lot of foreign gamers, and every time this meeting was held in previous years, my heart was empty and lacking in confidence!
But at this moment, there is really a feeling of raising eyebrows.
The vast majority of them are really out of love for games to join the industry, and they are very happy to witness the birth of a new boutique game and gain market recognition.
What's more, many of them have also bought the game, and have been completely convinced by its excellent quality and exquisite rhythm.
As for IGN's claim that it collects black money, after the majority of players played this game, the rumors were self-defeating.
Now the evaluation of this game on the Internet is really one-sided, and on major mobile game platforms, five-star reviews account for 99%.
This situation usually only occurs in games with few downloads, but "Mountains and Rivers Refining Immortals" breaks the convention.
"Thank you all for your encouragement and support." Chu Ye got up, smiled and bowed around.
However, at this moment, a strange situation appeared, everyone's movements and expressions were all frozen, motionless, forming a static picture.
He was the only one who was as usual, and it was a feeling of being abandoned by the whole world, and it was terrible.
Chu Ye took a deep breath, the smile on his face dissipated, and immediately burned the faith contributed by all the believers, suppressing the nervous and uneasy emotions in his heart.
Here it is, landlord, no, the aliens have come to collect the bills!
