335. Beat him until it hurts

Cai Zhenyi has worked for many years, and he has long suffered from electronic impotence, and he didn't feel any games anymore.

The essence of the game is nothing more than obtaining data through in-game efforts, and then relying on the data in the game to obtain satisfaction and stimulate dopamine secretion.

Cai Zhenyi can command hundreds of people on weekdays, how many people are busy with him before and after the saddle, and the pleasure brought to him by real power is far better than what any game can provide.

Of course, he didn't have any sense of the game anymore. But when he played the game "Sheep", he was like a dead tree in spring, a long drought and rain, and the shriveled soul second brother actually regained his vitality and strength, and raised his little head slowly and stubbornly.

"Sheep", a small game with simple graphics, simple mechanics, and ungodly content, can make him happily click with his fingers, and let him indulge in the unreal world for a moment after a long time.

When he came to his senses, even he was surprised that he was willing to spend an hour on such a game.

He couldn't figure out why he was so happy and meaningless to remove bricks. He has been exposed to so many games, played a few games of "Sheep is a Sheep", and immediately knew that this kind of game was made to deceive people into watching advertisements.

Say it's hard? That's right. It's not difficult to trick people into using props? How can you watch ads without props?

The harder the game, the more money you make with ads. He even suspected that the game would not be able to be completed at all. If you can't clear the level, you have to watch the ads all the time.

Cai Zhenyi doesn't think from the player's point of view, he thinks from the perspective of a game producer.

According to the general experience in the past, if you want readers to play more games and watch more ads, you generally design the game so that you can only clear it after watching the ads or consuming it.

In order to trick players into continuing to watch ads and spend after clearing the level, the next level will be designed to be difficult to see more ads.

Only by maintaining a reasonable difficulty gradient and at the same time being good and full can players be fooled into playing all the time.

There are now two head match-3 games on the market: one is "Dream Pastoral" made by a foreign company specializing in match-3 games, and the other is "Eliminate Every Day" under Donghuang Seven Stars.

Both games are made with this in mind. Even if they try their best to maintain the player experience, players will still abandon the pit, because the core users of match-3 games are just that.

However, the game "Sheep is a Sheep" does the opposite. Difficult levels? Then don't do it!

Is it hard to maintain players? Then don't maintain it! This arrogant attitude gave Cai Zhenyi the feeling that it was like a joke.

Cai Zhenyi didn't know who the other party designed the game, but he had already pasted it on the other party in his heart

The label of "rookie". Therefore, whether the game is good or not is secondary, and the most fun thing is that this kind of game is not responsible for the difficulty gradient, but it has become the reason for its hot search.

It's a very dark humor. After thinking for a while, Cai Zhenyi called his secretary's phone.

"Within thirty minutes, come to my house to pick me up, and we'll go to the company."

"Inform everyone in the department that the vacation is canceled, and those who can come back should come back to work as soon as possible." Soon, the secretary carried Cai Zhenyi back to the company.

The company's overtime can be said to be commonplace, before he notified the overtime, there were many people still in the company, after the news was issued, no one complained.

For part-time workers, as long as the money is enough, overtime is not a problem.

"Remember the last time I asked you to look it up?" Cai Zhenyi put his mobile phone on the table and said to the secretary with his legs crossed.

"Which one are you talking about?"

"Look at the hot search." Cai Zhenyi was concise and to the point.

"I've also seen the hot search, is it the one with the most difficult mini-game in history?" The secretary hurriedly took out his mobile phone,

"I only saw the hot search, not played." Ran

"The name of the game is 'Sheep'." The secretary was slightly stunned, and immediately said, "Oh! Come to think of it. In this way, this newly established company, the first game was on the hot search, it seems that you did have the foresight, and the company that I paid attention to is really extraordinary. Cai Zhenyi was indifferent to the secretary's opportunity, and he turned a deaf ear.

"It's hard to say yet. Hot searches can also be bought. Cai Zhenyi ordered,

"Check for me, whether those mcN's have accepted their promotion recently, and then ask me if the hot search over there is a purchase." The secretary nodded: "I'll go now." After speaking, Cai Zhenyi pushed his forehead and pondered for a while, picked up his mobile phone, and dialed Gu Yuqing's phone.

As soon as he connected the phone, his gloomy expression just now was swept away, and he looked enthusiastic, like a sunny and cheerful boy, as if he was face to face with Gu Yuqing.

Ran

"Hey, Yuqing! Congratulations! Gu Yuqing's calm voice came from the other side of the phone: "Now I am working, call me Mr. Gu." ”

"Yuqing," Cai Zhenyi insisted, as if he hadn't heard her say,

"Congratulations to the company you invested in, the first game has been successfully launched!"

"Huh? Is it online? Haha, I don't even know, where did you know that? On the other side, Gu Yuqing said very sincerely.

Cai Zhenyi frowned and said with a smile: "You are still pretending, the games are all on the hot search, I don't believe you don't know!" ”

"Hot search? What's the hot search? Gu Yuqing sounded very surprised,

"Then the company's first game is on the hot search? Are you sure? Cai Zhenyi furrowed his brows deeply. He didn't believe it, Gu Yuqing didn't know.

But to say that she knew, it was too similar. But he smiled instead: "I don't have to pretend to be these, we have been in this business for so long, and we all know it, just say it, how much did it cost?" ”

"What cost me?" Gu Yuqing sounded surprised.

"How much did it cost to buy a hot search?"

"Ah, Mr. Cai," Gu Yuqing said politely,

"I only knew that the game was on the hot search today, and you asked me how much it cost me to buy the hot search, didn't you ask Yu Blind?"

"Really?" Cai Zhenyi was very surprised. At this time, the secretary had already come in, saw Cai Zhenyi calling, and waited silently on the side.

Ran

"Mr. Cai, speaking of which, do you want to help?" Gu Yuqing smiled and said,

"You have such a good relationship with Weibo and those social media, isn't it simple to help get two more hot searches?" Gu Yuqing's words were thorny, how could Cai Zhenyi not hear it?

What she means is that buying hot searches is Donghuang Qixing's favorite thing to do, which is a well-known thing in the industry. Cai Zhenyi pretended not to hear it, and pretended to be surprised: "What is this talking about, our strategic cooperation with Weibo is official, and people have hacked us a lot, but they just said that they didn't tear their faces." Gu Yuqing said with a smile: "It's also good to help find your invincible mcN Group to publicize and publicize!" ”

"Hey, how can we have the mcN Group, this is all outside to hack us, you won't believe it, right?" Cai Zhenyi said with a smile.

mcN agency refers to an influencer brokerage company, which is nominally an institution that helps influencers monetize. The Live Guild is considered an MCN organization.

In fact, most mcN companies in China are essentially companies that control the channel of content creators, so as to ask Party A for a price and squeeze the residual value of content creators.

The mcN Group of Donghuang Seven Stars is a higher-level existence - as the largest Party A in the domestic game industry, they control a lot of mcN.

Therefore, in the field of public opinion, Donghuang Qixing is always undefeated, because they have a group of dogs and have a strong ability to bring rhythm.

"Is this black for you? I also think you are very strong and admire the strength of your company. Gu Yuqing said.

"Haha, really not," Cai Zhenyi said,

"By the way, speaking of which, the last time I met your Mr. Chen, I haven't added his contact information yet, so you can push it to me."

"Why do you want his contact information?" Gu Yuqing's tone sounded a little alert.

"Isn't it okay to be friends in the same industry and communicate with each other more?" Cai Zhenyi said with a smile.

Gu Yuqing was silent for a while, Cai Zhenyi

"Hey" twice, the other party didn't speak, and just when he was wondering, Gu Yuqing finally spoke.

Ran

"I thought about it, Mr. Cai, do you want to invest in his company? That's not good, now that I'm a major shareholder, how can I give you my cash cow? If you want to find someone else, don't ask me. Cai Zhenyi sneered: "Your defense is too heavy, too heavy, I don't think so at all." ”

"Shopping malls are like battlefields, how can you do if you don't have a heavy sense of defense?" Cai Zhenyi continued to follow Gu Yuqing's words, and Gu Yuqing continued to respond without being salty, and also reversed Cai Zhenyi's words.

The two of you went back and forth, and after fighting for a while, no one missed a breath. In the end, Cai Zhenyi had to hang up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Cai Zhenyi's expression was very serious, but he was still a little excited under the seriousness. Sure enough, it will be very pleasant to fight Gu Yuqing.

This woman is as cunning as a fox, as cruel as a lion, and sometimes as clever and cute as a cat.

She's seductive. Cai Zhenyi rarely mentions interest in anything, only in the face of Gu Yuqing, he always feels continuous stimulation, and if he is not careful, he will show flaws for the other party to catch.

Every time he confronted Gu Yuqing, he wanted to conquer this woman even more.

"Mr. Cai." The secretary said loudly, he had been waiting on the side for a long time,

"There is no record of this company buying hot searches on Weibo, and they asked, are we going to withdraw this hot search?"

"Withdrawn? No. Cai Zhenyi shook his head, then smiled,

"These guys are really making money at both ends, and they are very black-hearted." A common phrase on Weibo - hot searches are not something they can withdraw if they want to, they are all generated based on real-time calculations, and it takes a lot of operations to pull a hot search.

Of course, if you want to be on a hot search, you also need it

Actions. All in all, you have to add money.

"And then?" Cai Zhenyi continued to ask.

"All the mcN we have communication channels have checked themselves, and none of them have received the promotion task of this company," the secretary said.

"They don't seem to be issuing tasks through mcN."

"Hmm." Cai Zhenyi said.

"However, we just received another message," said the secretary.

"There is a well-known mobile game account, the owner of "I Love Mobile Games", saying that this company has contacted them." Ran

"Oh?" Cai Zhenyi was interested, but after thinking about it, he said,

"Let's not talk about this for now, let's get my colleagues in touch with this company first."

"Do you want to invest in them?" The secretary asked.

"Hmm."

"You're so decisive." The secretary exclaimed, and then immediately went to work. Gu Yuqing didn't give it, it didn't mean he wouldn't take it.

If he doesn't take it, others will take it, and it is on the hot search, and those manufacturers with strong expansion tendencies must be targeted.

…… On the other side, Gu Yuqing hung up the phone and turned her head to look at Chen Ya.

"You need to know that even if I don't give it now, they'll find you later." Chen Ya said: "Then let them wait and find it later." Cai Zhenyi didn't know that Gu Yuqing and Chen Ya were together-if he knew, his nose would definitely be crooked-just now he asked Gu Yuqing for Chen Ya's contact information, and Gu Yuqing actually asked Chen Ya's opinion.

Chen Ya's opinion is, fuck it, don't see.

"You're really not going to join the Seven Galaxy? If you add it, you can have an annual salary of 10 million! ~" Gu Yuqing blinked her eyes and said deliberately.

"Really? However, if I bet on the Seven Galaxy, won't I be able to help you complete your bet? Chen Ya replied flatly, his eyes still staring at the screen.

Gu Yuqing looked at his face with an unchanged smile, and his hand suddenly grabbed his hand, and his fingers were interlocked and clenched tighter.

"Jingle bell ......" Chen Ya's mobile phone rang in time, Chen Ya let go of her hand and answered the phone. Cai Zhenyi's voice came from the other side.

"Mr. Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time, do you remember me? Last time we met at the club......"

"Mr. Cai?" Chen Ya said briefly.

"Good memory, good memory," Cai Zhenyi sounded enthusiastic,

"Then I'll make a long story short, now our company is very interested in your game studio, so I'm here as a representative and want to invite you to ...... "齗."

"Are you looking to invest in our company?" Chen Ya asked.

"Well, it depends on how we talk about it, and we have a lot of forms of cooperation."

"No need." Chen Ya said. The other side obviously didn't expect him to refuse so simply, and said, "Do you want to meet and make a decision?" ”

"I said I didn't have to." Chen Ya said,

"My studio is currently well-funded and running well, and I have no intention of accepting investment for the time being." Cai Zhenyi's tone sounded a little playful: "Are you sure you have plenty of funds?" Mr. Chen, you have to know that the business field is unpredictable, and it is very likely that you will need funds immediately. ”

"Thanks, I'll get back to you when needed." Ran

"Hehe," Cai Zhenyi rolled his eyes in his heart,

"Mr. Chen, I have to remind you that not all studios have the opportunity to talk to me directly like this, I will give you this opportunity, I hope you cherish it."

"Thank you." Chen Ya said lightly,

"Can I hang up?" Cai Zhenyi held back a breath of fire, when it came to this, he would lose his identity if he replied again.

"Snap" hung up the phone. Hearing a busy sound from the other party, Chen Ya threw the phone back on the table.

On the side, Gu Yuqing looked at him indescribably and stretched out a thumbs up.

"You're awesome." …… On the other side, Cai Zhenyi, who threw his mobile phone on the table, was also annoyed.

He sat in his office, with several of his subordinates standing next to him. He drew up all the contracts, but he didn't expect Chen Ya to be so faceless.

Moreover, the speakerphone he opened just now, the conversation was heard by everyone around him.

"Mr. Cai," the secretary on the side hurriedly spoke, wanting to ease the awkward atmosphere.

"Shall we give this company a knock?"

"Yes, it's time to knock and knock," an employee on the side continued.

"This stunned young man, he hasn't hit a wall, he has to teach him how to mix in society."

"Hmm." Cai Zhenyi frowned, he was in a bad mood and didn't talk much,

"It's going to be beaten."

"How?" The secretary asked,

"Removed their hot search?" Ran

"The price is too high, and you can't deal with this kind of small fish and shrimp," Mr. Cai said.

"Just let the head number of the mobile game you just mentioned do it."

"Remember, with the least amount of money, beat him to the point of pain."
