Lin Zhaoxu nodded: "Well, what do you think of that "Thunder Poker"?"
Wu Zhao said: "This "Thunder Poker" should be a completely self-created gameplay. I can't judge its potential after only playing for ten minutes, but as far as I am currently feeling, I am cautious about it."
"Its gameplay is somewhat similar to Zajinhua and Stud, but these two kinds of poker are not popular, and their influence in China is far less than that of Doudizhu."
"Zhijinhua relies too much on luck. Everyone's eyes are darkened and it depends entirely on luck, so it's more like a pure gambling without any smart game in it."
"As for Stud, because there is a hidden card and an exposed card, too much information is exposed, so the game skills are seriously weakened, and it is difficult to catch fire."
"The design intent of this "Thunder Poker" should be to take the best of the two. Players can judge the strength of the opponent's cards by the shape of the public cards, and some key information is hidden to make the players fight more fiercely."
“However, it remains to be seen whether such reforms and attempts can be successful. Moreover, this is a brand-new poker genre after all, and all players have to learn from scratch. Even if it really becomes popular, it will take a long time .”
"In this period of time, we can also develop this kind of poker."
Lin Zhaoxu asked: "We also play this kind of poker, so there shouldn't be any legal risks, right?"
Wu Zhao nodded: "There is no legal risk. The new way of playing cards belongs to the 'rules and methods of intellectual activities' and will not be granted patent rights. That is to say, everyone can do it."
Lin Zhaoxu said: "That is to say, according to your judgment, this game will not cause major harm to Emperor Dynasty Chess in the short term, and it is impossible to poach players on our Emperor Game platform."
Wu Zhao thought for a moment and said, "You can say that."
Lin Zhaoxu said: "Then what if this game is promoted on the homepage of the Emperor Game Platform for a month?"
Wu Zhao: "Huh??"
Lin Zhaoxu said: "Some time ago, you know about the bet between Qiu Bin and Chen Mo, right? This game will be listed on the recommended position on the homepage of our Emperor Game Platform for a month."
Wu Zhao frowned and said, "Boss Lin, isn't this an opportunity for the other party to poach us?"
Lin Zhaoxu said, "That's why I asked you how much the impact will be."
Wu Zhao was a little bit embarrassed, thought for a while and said: "Well, there will still be some impact, but it shouldn't hurt the bones. That Chen Mo made this chess and card? Why didn't he promote "My name is mt", But promote such a board game?"
Lin Zhaoxu said, "Just don't hurt your muscles and bones. You don't have to ask about the rest."
Wu Zhao nodded: "Yes, I understand. But Mr. Lin, this guy has a lot of tricks, so you should always pay attention, and don't let him make any more fools."
Lin Zhaoxu said: "Okay, I got it. You should follow up on this matter. This recommendation is nothing, the key is not to let him poach too many players from our Emperor game platform."
Wu Zhao nodded: "Yes, I understand."
Wu Zhao left Lin Zhaoxu's office.
Lin Zhaoxu fell into deep thought.
"You want players but not money? This kid has a lot of ambition."
Originally, Lin Zhaoxu also thought that Chen Mo would use this recommendation to promote "My name is mt". After all, the profitability of "My name is mt" itself is very strong. If you add the blessing of the God Dynasty game platform, it will not be a problem to double the monthly turnover, and it is very likely to approach 50 million.
At that time, Chen Mo's monthly net income will be more than 10 million more.
However, Chen Mo gave up his monthly net income of more than 10 million and chose to promote a board game
This kind of courage is not something ordinary people can have.
Chen Mo's intentions were obvious, and Lin Zhaoxu couldn't have guessed it.
Chess and board games can't make a lot of money, and their profitability is far inferior to "My name is mt". However, the characteristic of chess and card games is that the cost of acquiring users is relatively low. Combined with the newly launched Thunder game platform, this is obviously aimed at grabbing users.
However, this is also a conspiracy, even if Lin Zhaoxu guesses it, it is useless. It is impossible for Dichao Huyu to play tricks or break his promise because Chen Mo is a potential threat. After all, so many people who eat melons are watching.

Don't board games make money
It is true that there is no money to be made in the parallel world, but in Chen Mo's previous life, chess and card games were the most silent and profitable games, not one of them.
The reason for this is that the designers of the parallel world did not think of those twists and turns in the previous life.
However, Chen Mo didn't intend to use this method to make money.
Why don't board games make money? Because players lack the motivation to continue recharging. Rookie players lose all the time, and it is impossible to win with money, and soon realize that this is no different from throwing money. Other games can also buy combat power by charging money. If you charge money in chess and card games, if your card skills are not good, you are becoming a charity gambling king.
And those players with good card skills are not willing to deposit money, because they can completely rely on their own skills to earn beans. Moreover, when the beans of these people reach a certain value, such as 10 million or 100 million, these beans cannot be liquidated or exchanged for money, and they will gradually lose interest in the game.
Therefore, in this kind of chess and card game, money is always in and out, which is a net loss, and most players' desire to recharge is severely suppressed.
It has become a consensus in the industry that chess and card games do not make money.
Tokens in chess and card games, such as Happy Beans, are strictly prohibited from being exchanged for real currency. The law expressly prohibits that all chess and card games that can be exchanged for real currency in both directions are suspected of gambling for profit and are illegal.
Once convicted, not only will the game be completely removed from the shelves, but the developer will even face jail time.
In Chen Mo's previous life, the reason why chess and card games made a lot of money was because most developers avoided legal risks by brushing aside.
For example, currency dealers are established overseas, and the currency dealers exchange game currency for players in two directions, while developers make profits in the form of "pumping".
In the game, game currency transactions between players are realized through the "friend table", while the actual cash transactions rely on the currency dealer platform.
Many chess and card game companies that make a lot of money basically use this model. In some places, chess and card games even rely on tens of thousands of users to complete an annual profit of tens of millions.
And Texas Hold'em is one of the hardest-hit areas. Almost 99% of all Texas Hold'em clubs adopt this model, and the profits are even more frightening.
However, Chen Mo still decided to keep this secret in his heart forever, hoping that this model will never appear in the game circle of this world.
