Jiang Ning, Yang Erge hot pot restaurant.

As soon as Chen Ba finished ordering, he heard a fierce discussion coming from table No. 7 not far away.

"Brother Zhou, you are mining in the dormitory, what if you are found out?"

"Don't talk nonsense! Where did I mine, I was clearly playing games, and the school had a rule that didn't allow us to play games in the dormitory? ”

"We didn't catch the good time when Bitcoin skyrocketed, but we can catch the Abab coin, and I tell you, this thing will definitely rise in the future......"

Chen Ba turned his head and glanced at it.

The young people who spoke seemed to be college students from the college town next door, but they didn't know which university it was.

But it doesn't matter.

The important thing is that it has only been a few days, and the news that the game "The True Story of Abba can be mined" has been spread so widely? Even college students are secretly digging up Aba coins in their dorms?

"As far as I know, your company should be a game company, right?"

Wang Ya, who took a sip of juice, seemed to have heard the discussion of the young people, so she asked, "Since it is a game company, why did you come up with such a thing as Aba coins?" ”

Chen Ba: "......"

You ask me? How do I know!

Although the game was made by him, the core code was not written by him, how did he know that Tie Hanhan System had a special algorithm in the game?

"It's just a coincidence!"

Chen Ba tried to clear his name: "Aside from this accident, "The True Story of Abba is still a very good public welfare game." ”

"But no one cares!"

"You don't know how many people come for the gameplay of Abba and how many people come for mining, right?"

Chen Ba had nothing to say.

Wang Ya's words are ugly, but it is an indisputable fact, and so far, the game "The True Story of Aba" has millions of players.

Of these millions of players, how many are playing the game?

The answer is hopeless!

There is a special bug in the game "The True Story of Aba", through which a certain amount of "limited NPC Aba" can be produced After the news leaked, almost all the players who poured in in the follow-up came to mine.

Can't ban it at all!

The game is sold on major platforms, and everyone has paid 198 real money to buy the game, so it's impossible for Chen Ba not to sell it to them, right?

By the way.

The number of players in the game is currently about 1.5 million, but the sales of the game exceeded 3 million copies as early as 9 o'clock last night.

Yes, 3 million copies!

Don't ask the number of players around 1.5 million, how can you sell nearly 3 million copies of the game?

At first, Chen Ba, like everyone else, was very puzzled and even puzzled by this sales data, after all, this scene did not conform to common sense.

It wasn't until he asked Xiao Lu to inquire about the information that he realized that just yesterday, after the unit price of a "black market" of an Aba coin exceeded 800 yuan, a large number of regular troops began to enter.

"What is a regular army?"

Wang Ya didn't understand these words very well, so she asked curiously.

"Ordinary players use their own computers to mine, which is too inefficient, and the output is not stable enough, and the regular army refers to those mine bosses who use mining machines in batches."

Chen Ba explained: "They are much more professional than ordinary people, and the mining efficiency of professional mining machines is much stronger than that of home PCs. ”

This is also the main reason why the sales of games have skyrocketed, but when counting the real players of the game, it is nearly half.

Because of this group of mine bosses, they don't buy games one by one, but buy dozens or hundreds of copies as soon as they buy them, and then use them for mining machines.

Of course, because under the same Tianba account, the same game cannot be purchased repeatedly, so they are purchased in bulk through third-party e-commerce platforms such as "TB" or "JD".

"Wait a minute!"

"I have a question, that is, Abba Coin is different from other virtual currencies, and you need to run the game "Abba Story" while mining, am I right?"

"That's right!"

Chen Ba nodded.

This is also one of the main reasons for the "difficult birth" of Abba coin, because there is one more mining condition, that is, the game "Abba Story" must be run.

If you don't run the program "The True Story of Aba", you can't mine according to the algorithm, and you can't get the NPC Aba.

"So how do they use it when they buy so many copies of the game Cdkey at one time? Is it for the same machine? Or open multiple machines? Wang Ya said curiously.

"Just modify the mining machine."

Chen Ba shook his head: "It's really not good, then use the stupidest way to go to an Internet café?" The operation mode of workstation + diskless system in Internet cafes can also be used to mine Aba coins. ”

To be precise, someone has already done this.

Before Chen Ba just went out, he swiped a post in the Tianba community, and the owner of the poster was an Internet café owner.

Because of the popularity of personal computers and the popularity of smart phones, the business of Internet cafes is very sluggish, and he is also worried about this, and he is about to close down.

Unexpectedly, at this time, someone introduced him to the game "The True Story of Aba" and told him to run this game on all the machines in the Internet café, and he didn't have to do anything, just lie down and collect money every day.

"Guys are crazy!"

Chen Ba smiled bitterly: "Because Aba Coin is a new thing, it has only been born for a few days, so you know, it's very simple to do this now." ”

How simple is it?

It's as simple as an ordinary home computer, and the configuration doesn't need to be too top-notch, as long as it can run 3A masterpieces smoothly, it's almost enough.

On a computer of this level, you only need to buy a copy of the game "The True Story of Aba", and then get stuck in the game and let the algorithm run in the background for six or seven hours, and you can probably calculate an NPC Aba.

"Only one?"

"What are you thinking? I forgot what I said before, as of now, one Aba coin can sell for about 800 yuan on the black market! ”

Chen Ba smiled: "Eight hundred yuan may not have any concept for you, the daughter of a rich family, after all, you have more than eight hundred yuan for a meal." ”

"But you have to know that more than 90% of the country's migrant workers have a daily wage of less than 800 per day. What's more, the money is so easy to come by, you don't have to do anything with a computer and a game, and you can just let the game run in the background. ”

Speaking of which, Chen Ba was also very helpless.

This temptation is too strong, and it is precisely because the temptation is too strong that the college students at table No. 7 not far away, including a large number of netizens, will flock to the entrance.

In just a few days, the game rushed to 3 million sales, and nearly 300 million funds were returned to Tianba Studio.

"It's really true that you say that, the benefits are too considerable, no wonder everyone is going crazy to play "The True Story of Abba now".

Wang Ya sighed: "But if I'm not mistaken, this situation shouldn't last long, right?" ”

"That's for sure."

"Let's not say that the price of Aba is not stable, and there is room for it to plummet if it has the potential to skyrocket. Even if the price is fixed at $800, this frenzy won't last long now......"

Chen Ba saw it very clearly.

Why is it so profitable to mine Aba coins at this stage? Because Aba Coin is a new thing, there are not many people entering the market at this time, so a computer can mine one a day.

But after a while?

Millions of people have already entered, and if nothing else, the production will increase dramatically, and the difficulty of obtaining NPC Abba will also increase indefinitely.

Maybe after a while, the good days of a computer digging up an NPC Abba a day will be gone forever.

At that time, it may take three to four days of continuous digging, or even five to seven days, to dig up an NPC Abba .

Don't ask what the principle is.

The question is that there are more monks and less porridge, and it is limited by the underlying algorithm, because of the bug of the game "The True Story of Aba", there is an "upper limit" on the total number of NPC Aba.

Within Tianba Studio, there was also some discussion and research around this upper limit, and finally Chen Ba himself came up with a rough estimate after looking at the code written by Tie Hanhan's system.

Because of the game's bugs, the total number of NPC Aba will probably remain in the range of 50 million to 60 million.

It's not hard to calculate.

Not only Tianba Studio estimated it, but others, even if they didn't check the source code like Chen Ba, could still estimate an approximate value.

Because there is an upper limit to the output of this thing, it is impossible to produce it indefinitely, so the more miners who participate in computational mining at the same time, the less chance it will be obtained by everyone on average.

Plainly.

The logic of this thing is actually equivalent to a test paper, and there are 100 questions on the test paper. You can solve all these questions, but it will take some time to "deduce".

If you are the only candidate to answer the questions, then you can complete these 100 questions with your eyes closed, after all, no one will rob you!

But if 100 candidates answer the question at the same time, and the same question is answered, whoever gives the answer first will be scored?

That's obvious, rolled up.

If you are not as fast as others, you are destined not to grab this opportunity, and you will end up with much fewer points.

"And this thing, the further you get to the back, the harder it gets. In the front, you may be able to calculate a few by digging casually, but the back is not so simple. ”

When Chen Ba said this, he said with emotion: "Seriously, when I was designing this game, I didn't expect it to end up like this. ”

Family, who knows?

He just wants to escort his TGA annual award with the blessing of special themes.

Who knows, the game has actually created a new virtual currency!

Who would have thought that?

Because of this, Tianba Studio was named and criticized by the superior department, saying that they didn't study well, and they had to have a sense of social responsibility and spread positive energy.

Thanks to the special theme of "The True Story of Aba", otherwise this game would probably be banned from playing by the higher authorities.

Thinking of this, Chen Ba was also sweating profusely.

Before the release of "The True Story of Aba", he announced that he would donate half of the proceeds of the game to set up a special public welfare fund to help people with disabilities.

This move was originally to create a good image and reputation, and to create momentum for the award. Unexpectedly, it was his move that saved the life of "The True Story of Aba" in the end.

It can be said that ......

If it weren't for the special theme of "The True Story of Aba", with a layer of public welfare game jacket, combined with the image of "income donation" created by Tianba Studio in advance, this game would 100% follow in the footsteps of "GTA5".

"Is it so scary?"

"You don't understand!"

Chen Ba shook his head and said: "Virtual currencies like Bitcoin are very sensitive in China, and "The True Story of Aba" can survive and not go into exile in overseas markets, all relying on the golden body of public welfare games to save their lives." ”

Of course, the game was saved, but the trade in the "Aba coin" was severely cracked.

That's why just now Chen Ba used the "black market price" to measure the value of an Aba coin. Because in addition to the shady black market, Aba really has no public trading channels at present.

"This is also to crack down on the black industry, virtual currency, not to mention a game of drumming and passing flowers, and there are a lot of dark sides behind it."

Chen Ba said awe-inspiringly: "Therefore, our Tianba Studio actively cooperates and also cracks down on the trading behavior of Aba coins. ”

Wang Ya: "......"

Okay, good, so positive!

If she didn't know what kind of person Chen Ba was in private, she would have believed this.

"Ahem, eat, eat!"

As the mandarin duck pot he ordered began to be served, Chen Ba didn't want to talk more about this topic, and hurriedly beckoned Wang Ya to start moving chopsticks.

Today's meal is his treat.

Mainly to thank Wang Ya for helping him match him and meet a top designer in Jiangning who is engaged in interior decoration.

Lao Chen wants to redecorate the house, because there is no children's room now, and it is not convenient to take care of grandchildren in the future. And the interior layout is not good, anyway, there is no shortage of money to redecorate.

"By the way, if your house is renovated, where will you live during this time?"

"Lao Chen went back to his hometown to play for a while, and by the way, he visited his father and fellow villagers, as for me, the company has a room."

Chen Ba is not worried about this problem at all, the Tianba headquarters is such a big building, can there be no place for him to sleep?

Besides, if you really don't have a place to live, then buy another house!

"My dad meant to let you come to live in my house, anyway, my villa is very big, and my dad is now living in the hospital, my mom is away all the year round, and there are a lot of empty rooms at home."

"Huh?"

As soon as Chen Ba heard this, the chopsticks in his hand were almost unstable, and he said with embarrassment: "Isn't this an impact?" ”

Lao Wang lives in a VIP room in the hospital, and Mrs. Wang is away all the year round, so isn't Wang Ya alone in Lao Wang's house?

This...... Lonely men and widows living under the same roof will inevitably make people think about it!

Chen Ba didn't expect that Lao Wang would take this opportunity to put forward such a suggestion of "luring wolves into the room", he was really tired of living in the hospital, and wanted to finish the scene as soon as possible?

Thinking of Lao Chen's good manners, he suddenly said that he wanted to redecorate the house, Chen Ba couldn't help but suspect that these two old things wouldn't be colluding, right?

But then again......

Lao Wang is so thoughtful, should he arrange for a nanny to give him food and medicine when he moves in, and hug his grandson just after he is discharged from the hospital?

The more Chen Ba thought about it, the darker his face became, and he felt that this promise made his life very unsafe!
