Different from the tension in the apocalypse, the development in the current world has been stable. For emerging Internet technology companies like Futureman Technology, the government's attitude is still supportive, and it has given the green light to Jiang Chen in many aspects.
Of course, the reason why the local government's attitude is so friendly is naturally related to the hundreds of millions in taxes paid by Futureman every month.
Who would dislike having a money-making machine at home? It’s full of political achievements. Not to mention how long has Future Human Technology been established? If it continues to develop, there is no guarantee that a major Internet company that is not inferior to Penguin will be born during his tenure.
On the other hand, as the number of users of Future People 10 continues to expand, domestic users have exceeded the 200 million mark, and foreign users who have downloaded the multi-language version have also exceeded the 400 million mark.
Since the rise of Future People 10, business elites from all walks of life have also keenly smelled the smell of money, and various letters of intent for cooperation have come like snowflakes. Xia Shiyu is also very busy with this, because the company chairman always disappears from time to time
Even laymen know that the Internet era is an era where traffic is king. This can be seen from the operation of O2O model software such as Bibi Taxi and mobile food delivery. In order to attract traffic, operators even spend a lot of money to lose money.
However, Futureman 10 does not need to spend money. After all, no one can beat it in the field of artificial intelligence and performance enhancement. For the time being, there is no company qualified to compete with Futureman Technology in this field. Users have only one choice.
It is precisely because of its monopoly position in acceleration services and battery optimization services that after operating free services for 2 months, Futureman Technology shamelessly changed these two services into paid items. New users will receive a two-month free trial period, but in the third month, if they want to continue to enjoy these two services, they must spend 10 yuan to upgrade to VIP1 users.
In short, if you want to own a smartphone configured for 1,000 yuan and enjoy the speed of a smartphone configured for 2,000 yuan, just pay the monthly rent of 10 yuan honestly.
Will anyone pay for expedited services? The answer is obviously yes.
Imagine that the original mobile phone could not run games and software that could not be carried. Because of the accelerated service of Futureman 10, your phone will no longer be as hot as a fire stick just because you play a game, and you no longer have to plan for battery power while watching a movie. Can you still endure the same mobile phone experience as before?
10 yuan per month. This is much cheaper than replacing a new phone.
Of course, when this fee-based project was first launched, there was a lot of yelling and scolding on the forum. Users who have not recharged VIP have said that this is a fraud. When they downloaded it, they had no idea that this thing would charge a fee. Some people even threatened to express it. If there is a fee, delete Xiaobai.
However, these rhythmic people are only a small group after all. Although there are many users, there are only a few IPs. You can guess that they are the trolls hired by some boring guy.
Many paying users who have upgraded to vip1 are on the side of Future People Technology, saying: "Is 10 yuan a lot? Can you have a meal?" "Service is not an obligation. There is so much nonsense, no need to delete it quickly. , don’t lower the average IQ of netizens.”
The views of users who have not yet paid are relatively dull. As long as the service is worth the price, they don't mind spending money. Mobile phones are affordable. Do you still care about this mere 10 yuan
But are those clamoring people really willing to delete Future Man 10
The number of domestic users who upgraded to VIP1 that month exceeded 200 million, killing QQ members instantly with a terrifyingly high payment rate. The market has already given the answer.
As for the overseas market, it is relatively flat.
Since they are used to paying for genuine apps, and it is true that cracked versions cannot be found online, most users accept the monthly rent of US$2.
Just a membership program in the software has brought billions of monthly revenue to Futureren Technology.
Such a terrifying ability to attract money once again shocked the big guys on Wall Street, and also made those venture capitalists who had not been able to get a chance to beat their chests and feet with regret, although Jiang Chen had never said that he would bring in venture capital.
It is a great honor that Jiang Chen has become the only man from China to appear in the Wall Street Journal twice in a row within half a year.
On the other hand, compared to the amazing performance of Future Man 10. Although the response to the "New Era" mobile game was mediocre, it also achieved impressive results.
First of all, the number of players in "New Era" has exceeded 50 million, and the number of people online at the same time is approaching the 10 million mark.
A series of profit channels such as the expansion of the auction house's fashion warehouse will quickly realize the value of IP. Good gameplay makes the user stickiness amazing. Nowadays, if you just take the subway or walk around a university classroom, you can basically see the exquisite game graphics of "New Era".
The game editing function provided by Yao Yao is very powerful. Basically, any creativity you can think of can be realized in the game. Now the New Era project team has expanded to 40 people, of which more than 20 are specifically responsible for the expansion of game content. Some people are responsible for the art. Specialized in designing character fashion models; some people are responsible for scripts, writing story plot copy tasks, etc.
Both the game content and gameplay have received rave reviews. After some warm-up, the overseas version was released as scheduled.
According to Xia Shiyu's report, the number of foreign players has exceeded 80 million and is growing steadily.
Although the monthly revenue of 200 million is still a bit inferior to that of the Future People 10 project, it is still ahead of its peers.
You know, this is a net income of 200 million, not some monthly turnover of 200 million.
Although the monthly revenue of many mobile games can exceed 100 million, due to many factors such as R&D operation costs and bad debts, if 30% of the monthly revenue can be converted into actual revenue, it is considered very profitable.
A mobile game with a monthly revenue of 200 million is simply a miracle.
In view of the popularity of this game, many large game guilds have also settled in "New Era", and small game guilds have also sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. The popularity of games has naturally driven the development of related industries.
Such as game live broadcasts, such as professional competitions
Many third-party platforms came directly to the door, hoping to cooperate with Futureman Technology on the game "New Era". In this regard, Futureman Technology has also opened its door and treats every potential collaborator with a welcoming attitude.
"Sohu hopes to cooperate with us on Future Man 10 and "New Era", and jointly establish a new live broadcast platform with "New Era" as the main game."
"What do you think of this proposal?" Jiang Chen said lazily, leaning on the sofa.
"It is difficult to recover costs in the short term, but it will help expand the influence of "New Era" and enhance user stickiness."
"Then it's up to you."
As if she expected Jiang Chen to say this, Xia Shiyu, who was sitting in the office, couldn't help but raise her forehead.
"Okay, in addition, the Daimler Group is divided. The representatives sent by this homophonic group have arrived in Wanghai City and hope to negotiate with us on cooperation issues. Due to the special status of the other party's representatives, for the sake of etiquette, we can only be represented by You came forward to negotiate in person."
"Daimler Group?" Jiang Chen was stunned. He had never heard of the name.
Xia Shiyu on the other end of the phone was also stunned for a moment.
"Isn't the Maybach S600 you drive a product of the Daimler Group?"
Sweat, I made a fool of myself
Jiang Chen scratched his cheek in embarrassment. He really didn't know much about cars.
"Ahem, who's here?" In order to cover up his embarrassment, he decided to change the topic.
"Carmen Rothschild.".
