An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 173: I almost forgot about the module

Views:

The magic tower is completely popular!

And this time it was not only popular at the game show, the fire seemed to have also burned outside the competition exhibition center.

On the second day of the Shanghai Game Exhibition, the number of visits to the official website tripled, almost to the point of being paralyzed.

Whether they were fans of Yagami or just passers-by, after seeing the hot search entry, they all rushed to the official website of the Shanghai Game Exhibition with curiosity and downloaded the small game of less than 10MB. Let’s see what’s so toxic about this game.

After trying it, players have said that although the game's style looks quite rough, even retro, once you accept this setting, it is surprisingly enjoyable to play

Whether it’s the hard-core game style of being unable to save and dying to the end, or the game difficulty comparable to solving equations, people who have played it twice clearly feel the unique “charm” of this game, which is simply more exciting than 2048. People can't stop.

Regarding the fact that "Magic Tower", a dark horse that suddenly appeared out of nowhere, suddenly became famous, it was not only Zhou Zhenyu who was so angry that he went crazy, but also Zhang Xiang, who was the first to ignite this fire.

To be honest, Zhang Xiang has no grudge against the Demon Tower. His only lifelong enemy is Yunmeng Game.

What really made him angry was Say Ye!

This shameless little bitch actually stole his joke in front of him!

It was obviously him first!

Whether you discover this game among the crowd, or you are the first to "recommend" this game to the audience in the live broadcast room!

However, just because Sun Weiye’s Dogecoin was on the hot search, everyone now thinks that this game became so popular because of Ye Shen’s all-night live broadcast, completely forgetting his contribution in it. .

Okay, Zhang Xiang admitted that he did take advantage of the situation in the live broadcast room to criticize this game, but isn’t reverse poisonous milk not milk

If he hadn't taken the risk of being criticized by black fans to launch the broadcast, this little game that no one cares about would still be squatting in some nook and cranny!

Apart from the furious Zhou Zhenyu and a certain Yunmeng game's top fan, Hao Yun was probably the most enjoyable among them.

Even because the happiness came so suddenly, it made him feel a little unexpected.

After all, whether it was the sudden increase in downloads of Magic Tower or the sudden popularity of a certain big anchor, it was all unexpected for him.

Originally, Hao Yun's plan was that by the end of the third day of the game exhibition, it would be great if a thousand players could experience the Magic Tower. However, he did not expect that it would only be the second day and it would become a discussion on the entire Internet. .

But relatively speaking, it is difficult to say whether such a large number of downloads is good or bad for a game that has not yet been released.

Because there is no special trial version, what players download is basically all the content of the game. Unless there are new content updates in the future, it is difficult to say whether players will pay for the games they have already played.

Especially since this is a small game.

Feeling troubled, Hao Yun called Lin Jun and wanted to hear this guy's bad idea.

However, what I didn't expect was that after listening to his description, this guy not only didn't feel like sharing his worries at all, but actually jumped up from his chair with excitement.

"Boss! That's a good thing!"

Stunned by these words, Hao Yun hesitated.

"...What a good thing."

"How much money can you make selling games! Haven't you noticed? Even for a game like 2048 that has exploded across the Internet, your total income from it so far is less than 5 million. But Shendiao escaped for a month The turnover is already six times this figure! On the contrary, the mobile phone version bought out by the Rice Group is now half the sky popular, and the advertising fees are so low." Lin Jun said sadly.

"You think so," Hao Yun nodded thoughtfully, stroking his chin and continued, "But how can Magic Tower develop an online mode? This thing is a DRPG."

Cooperate to defeat monsters

I always feel that with this change, the Magic Tower will become nondescript.

Lin Jun said with a smile: "Although I don't understand what DRPG is, if we analyze this problem with the thinking of the Internet, you will find that this problem is actually very simple, it is a simple traffic monetization problem!"

What the hell is the difference between this and nonsense.

Hao Yun couldn't help rolling his eyes, holding his phone and continuing.

"Then do you have any good ways to cash in?"

“Be a community!”

Hearing this answer, Hao Yun was slightly stunned.

"Society...community?"

"That's right!" Lin Jun continued excitedly, "We can build an open sharing community around the game Magic Tower to provide players with a space to share strategy progress, game progress, and fan works!"

The moment he heard this idea, Hao Yun's eyes suddenly brightened.

Especially when he heard the word "fan works", a strange but familiar concept suddenly popped out of his mind.

Mod!

That is mod!

How could I forget this thing!

In Hao Yun's vague memory, the mainstream game platforms of the previous generation seemed to be inherently compatible with the "creative sharing" function, allowing players to change the content of the game according to their own needs, and even update the game map for the official.

However, the Dianqu platform in this generation does not seem to have this function and is just a simple store.

Lin Jun's words woke him up.

If you just sell the game, with the capacity of Magic Tower being less than 10MB, it can be sold for five yuan. Even if one million people eventually choose to come back to pay for the tickets, the maximum sales price will be around five million.

What can five million do

Although it sounds like a lot, in fact it is barely enough to cover the expenses of his pig farm for a month.

In this way, there is really no need for him to sell games on the Dianqu platform.

While Hao Yun was planning in his mind how to design this "community" function, Mr. Lin on the other end of the phone was also talking endlessly about his investment philosophy.

“…In the Internet era, mastering traffic means mastering everything!”

“Being able to bring so many game enthusiasts together in one community, whether we directly monetize the traffic, or take a long-term approach to catch big fish, or even simply package the products and sell them together, we can make more money than selling games. !”

"If I weren't busy with the 'Modern Cycling' thing right now, I would have wanted to take charge of this project myself." Lin Jun said with emotion with a hint of unfinished meaning in his tone.

Hearing the words "modern bicycle", Hao Yun suddenly remembered the task given to him by the system, so he asked casually.

"Speaking of which, how is the situation over there?"

Lin Jun said confidently.

"Everything is according to plan!"

Hao Yun coughed slightly and said.

"...I mean, have you spent all your money?"

"How could it be so fast!" Lin Jun smiled confidently and continued in a soothing tone, "Don't worry, boss, although the money will be burned a bit faster according to the new plan I am implementing now, we will not be burned entirely by ourselves. With the money, there is no problem if you hold on until the end of the year or even January next year!”

Hao Yun actually wanted to say that it would be okay to start with our own money, but hearing Jun Lin's confident tone, he swallowed the words that were on his lips.

Mr. Wolong must have already figured out how to lose 20 million, so it would be better not to disrupt his plan.

I hope he can give himself a big surprise when the financial statements come out next month!

After hanging up the phone, Hao Yun walked to the hotel window and looked out the window at the Convention and Exhibition Center, which was just a street away, and the long queue. He couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly.

Today is the second day of the Game Show.

And tomorrow, the third day of the Shanghai Game Show, the selection of the Golden Keyboard Competition will officially begin. Whether we can qualify for the finals or not, we will find out tonight!

"Lin Jun's side should be stable."

"Now it depends on Li Zongzheng's performance."

It is still difficult to defeat a quasi-AAA masterpiece like "Dragon King" with a small game like "Magic Tower", but Li Zongzheng's "Cultivation Simulator" is not without its ability to fight.

At least according to Li Zongzheng himself, there are still many players who gave five-star praise on the spot.

Thinking of this, Hao Yun's heart was filled with excitement, and he was looking forward to tomorrow's game more and more.

No matter whether you win or lose in the end, this exciting game will definitely not let you down!
