Online payment tools are an important infrastructure in the development of the Internet economy. Without this tool, users' original intention to purchase online services will be greatly weakened due to high payment costs.
The direct consequence is that companies operating Internet services will weaken in terms of profits, especially in this era, which is still in the wild period of the Internet and users' paying habits have not yet been developed.
Not many people are willing to pay for Internet services. The few who want to pay have to back down because of the high cost of payment.
The cost here includes not only the direct payment cost, but also the time cost and energy cost. It is commonly known as trouble. Users dislike the trouble and have to give up the service fee they originally wanted to pay.
And now it is impossible to give up those users who are unwilling to pay, because although they cannot directly create wealth for Internet companies, they are an important foundation for the development of Internet companies.
It is precisely because in the early days, no one was willing to pay for such seemingly fake goods and services, so the main source of income for Internet companies in the early days was advertising, and other income besides advertising was not worth mentioning at all.
This is why the first batch of Internet companies that developed basically had portals that were easy to advertise on. In addition to the relatively simple technology, it was because they were very suitable for advertising.
After all, portals are not the entire Internet, but also include other various Internet content providers. What should they do? Just like Tencent in the previous life, it will be difficult for them to obtain large amounts of revenue from advertising.
Therefore, these Internet companies have to enter the field of online games. Only online games can make Internet users willing to pay.
This is why online games play a decisive role in the development of my country's Internet industry.
Even in later generations, many users are willing to pay for Internet content that they are interested in, but online games still occupy an important position.
Although Zhao Yi is now planning to use portals, search engines, online games, and social software to start the first year of the Internet.
For the first two, as long as users start doing it, the income from advertising will definitely not be small, and they will have certain profitability.
Needless to say, online games, as long as the games are done well, they will always be the most powerful tool to attract money, let alone in this era when there are no online games, there is no need to worry about their ability to make money.
You know, in the previous life, he became the richest man in just one or two years with just one game of "Legend". It is difficult to imagine that such a situation is difficult to achieve in other Internet content fields.
But in addition to the above three areas, the chat software that Zhao Yi's Xinghan Technology Company plans to launch will be difficult to make a profit in a short period of time.
Because the basic function of chat software is chatting, it is impossible to charge users for this function, otherwise it will be difficult to attract many users.
Therefore, their source of income can only be obtained from the peripherals of chat software. In view of the special nature of chat software, income from advertising is very limited, because it is impossible to open many advertising columns on chat software.
And if you want to increase your income by selling props that have little practicality now, the effect may not be as good as in the previous life. After all, the current per capita income has not reached the level of the previous life, and you will not pay for such useless things.
So Zhao Yi wanted to first expand the user base of the chat software as much as possible, and then rely on the huge number of users to provide diversion services for other Internet companies and make money in this area.
Such a move would definitely work, but Zhao Yi was not sure when Xinghan Technology Company would be able to maintain a balanced income, but it was always a way out.
Besides, Zhao Yi is not in a hurry to make Xinghan Technology Company make money. He just hopes that Xinghan Technology Company can occupy the domestic Internet social market as soon as possible, and then seize the international market with the development of the international Internet.
As long as there is a large enough market, even if there are not many advertising spaces, you can actually get considerable profits. Moreover, Xinghan Technology Company does not just prepare one instant messaging software, but has developed various different ones around social attributes. product.
It's just that Xinghan Technology Company will be the first to launch instant messaging software on the market. Firstly, this software is relatively easy to use. Secondly, in the early days of the Internet, being able to chat was already a good software.
At this time, users do not have such high requirements. After the number of Internet users increases and user needs become diversified, other social products will be launched one after another.
No matter how well these plans are done, they are inseparable from the Internet payment system. Otherwise, they can only make contributions silently. If you want to get income and make a profit, it is no less difficult than going to the sky.
And how could Zhao Yi forget about the Internet shopping platform? It’s just that he doesn’t have the relevant basic conditions yet. When the basic conditions are met, he may quickly establish related companies.
If you want to develop an online shopping platform, you must have two prerequisites. The first is a relatively complete logistics system. Products purchased by users online must be delivered to users on time, otherwise the user experience will be affected.
The second is that a sufficient number of Internet users are needed. Without users, online shopping has no value. Moreover, users also need to believe that the products they buy online are authentic and guaranteed. A lot needs to be done behind this. Work.
Because of this, Zhao Yi temporarily postponed online shopping and let other companies cultivate Internet users first, and then waited until trading companies established a national logistics system.
After these two conditions are met, it is not too late for Zhao to establish corresponding online shopping platforms again and again, and it is not just one platform, but several platforms to meet different user choices.
Only children will choose between B2C, B2B, and C2C. Adults will choose both, let alone a business owner like Zhao Yi who is not short of money.
In addition to the good development prospects in these aspects, Zhao Yi also wants to allow several of his companies to compete and promote each other's improvement.
Anyway, the life and death of the people below has little to do with him. In the end, he is the profiteer. This is one of the reasons why Zhao initially established several companies in one field.
However, before establishing an online shopping platform, Zhao Yi hopes to meet some conditions first, and the online payment system is one of them.
As for why the online payment system should be incorporated into Xinghan Technology Company, there are mainly the following reasons:
First, the profitability of Xinghan Technology Company in the early stage was not strong. Give them a business that is easier to cash out and let them realize their self-hematopoietic function as soon as possible, so that Zhao Yi can worry less.
Second, he hopes to build the accounts of Xinghan Technology Company into the entire Internet user platform. In the future, if other companies want to quickly develop users, they only need to access the user platform of Ninghan Technology Company.
This has two major advantages. The first is that it is convenient for Internet users. Most of them can use one account and have smooth access to the Internet world without having to remember so many accounts.
The second benefit is that Xinghan Technology Company can become an Internet hub, allowing its large user base to create value for them, and it also facilitates advertising cooperation between Xinghan Technology Company and other companies.
As for whether advertising on social products is profitable, there is no need to go into details here. Just look at Facebook to find out.
After learning about the situation of "Audition", Zhao Yiyou followed Manager Li to the development team of "Legend" to learn about their development status.
In fact, Zhao Yi himself had never played the "Legend" game in his previous life. When he was in school, he had no money to play this kind of thing, and he didn't even have money to go to an Internet cafe to surf the Internet.
It was only after I started working that the "Legend" private server remained popular for a long time, and many people were still playing it. Especially when online live broadcasts were popular, there were still people who became big anchors because of playing the "Legend" private server.
It was when Zhao Yi watched the live broadcasts of those anchors at that time that he saw and understood some of the legends from previous lives. To be honest, at that time, Zhao Yi really didn't understand that there were still people playing such a bad game.
Now in this era, my thoughts are different. Although I still think this game is too bad. In addition to killing monsters, it is killing monsters. The character models are also ugly. The only bright spot is the exaggerated weapons and equipment.
But these things may be the most popular in this era. Those high-end online games may not be understood by netizens at this time, and they are not as enjoyable as this simple and crude game.
So the current game is also called "Legend", but the difference from the previous "Legend" is also very obvious. At least the graphics are much better than the previous game, and it is definitely more conscientious than them.
In addition to the pictures, there is the background of the story. Because I didn’t know much about "Legend" in my previous life, I only knew Shabak. The SB anchor at that time, who yelled at Shabak all day long, once made Zhao Yi feel He has mental problems.
Therefore, it is impossible to copy the story background of the previous life. We can only ask the people in the game project team to come up with another story background.
Just like Zhao Yi now, he controls a character with nothing but sex. In Novice Village, he catches those livestock to practice leveling, because with the character's current combat power, he can only do these tasks.
After finally reaching level 5, I was finally able to leave the novice village. I also had an ax in my hand and wore shabby clothes that had exploded. Then I looked for wild beasts in the forest to kill.
When the level reaches level 10, you can finally explore some secret realms. The secret realms are full of little monsters. Zhao Yi relies on his movements to kite these little monsters to death.
Just keep grinding and grinding, and finally reached level 15. These little monsters also broke out some more powerful equipment. These equipment are obviously different from the previous ones, that is, they can be upgraded with props.
Of course, weapon upgrades cannot be too complicated, otherwise players who are not smart may not understand it, so they upgrade equipment in two dimensions.
The first is to upgrade the equipment, which can improve the overall attributes of the equipment. The second is to punch holes, so that the equipment has one or more attributes.
The equipment released by these little monsters in the secret realm can only upgrade stars and do not have attribute holes. If you want equipment with attribute holes, you can only kill the bosses in these monster secret realms. The more powerful the boss, the more attribute hole equipment you can get. The probability is greater.
For example, in the secret realm just now, Zhao Yi encountered a certain number of mobs, and the mini-boss came out. With his deft and precise movement, he killed the mini-boss, but he didn't get any good equipment, so he had bad luck.
Later, I killed several small bosses one after another, and finally obtained some decent equipment. After killing a certain number of small bosses, the big boss finally appeared. It’s just that the big boss is much more powerful. Just relying on positioning is not enough. .
In the end, Zhao Yi was defeated. Although he did not die, he still left the battlefield with a trace of blood. If the big boss is not killed, it will exist for a period of time. During this period, Zhao Yi must upgrade his equipment and improve his combat power, and then come back again. Challenge the big BOSS.
However, the little money I got from picking up gold coins could not upgrade the equipment on my body to the full level, let alone some attribute holes, which required gems to drill holes.
Zhao Yi, who had no money, went to mine. Isn't it familiar? These programmers have the same brains and the same way of thinking as those programmers in previous lives.
Then Zhao Yi bought a hoe from the grocery store, wandered to the mine, and dug diligently. There are many kinds of mines. Once he dug gold ore, he made a fortune and became rich in an instant. handsome.
If it's ordinary stones, coal mines, iron ores, etc., it won't be so good. You'd better keep working hard, young man, your happy days have not come yet.
Fortunately, Zhao Yi was lucky. In a short period of time, he dug out two gold ores in succession. After buying them, he got enough money. Then he directly upgraded the equipment stars to the maximum and still had some money left, so he bought it. Two first-level gems to fill the attribute holes.
After everything was ready, Zhao Yi came to the secret realm just now. Fortunately, the time had not expired. The big boss was still strolling around leisurely, apparently unaware that his good days were over.
Looking at this big boss playing with snake skin, Zhao Yi was obviously much more confident than before. Throwing a skill up marked the beginning of this duel.
There is no need to describe the process in detail. Anyway, under Zhao Yi's rogue position, although he was scratched a few times by the big BOSS's skills in the middle, he still managed to survive. The big BOSS who was playing with snake skin finally fell down.
A big BOSS of this level does not deserve to have a name. It can be said to be a nameless person, and it took Zhao Yi a lot of time to kill this nameless person.
After Zhao Yi reached level 30, the difficulty of the secret realm also increased a lot. Although the mobs were still like locusts, although there were many of them, their brains were not very good and they were easier to deal with.
It's just that when it comes to the big boss, it's not easy, because the big bosses in the secret realm at this level have begun to have names. For example, the one he is dealing with now is Zhang Yuanbo, one of the Five Plague Messengers.
Just by looking at the names, he knew that there must be four other plague gods that were similar to this big BOSS. Zhao Yi had no interest in continuing to explore. Just such a plague god took half an hour to finally kill him. Killed.
Then there was a big explosion all over the ground, with colorful flowers and glittering gold spread on the ground. It really gave people a huge sense of satisfaction. At least Zhao Yi had a sense of accomplishment, let alone others.
Then there were upgrades and challenges all the way, and Zhao Yi finally reached level 99, and finally began to challenge the Jade Emperor, which is the current version of the ultimate BOSS.
Since it is the ultimate BOSS, and he is also the Jade Emperor, the Lord of Heaven, how can he successfully challenge it casually? In the game settings, it requires many people to attack it together.
But now that it is a test server, it is impossible for so many people to attack. In addition to the high damage and wide skill range of the Jade Emperor, what is even more depressing is that he actually has 99 lives.
In other words, you need to kill him 99 times before you can truly kill this BOSS. Fortunately, every time you kill him, you can explode some equipment, and each resurrection also takes a few minutes.
During this time, players need to replenish their status, and those players who died also have time to run over.
It's just that the reborn Jade Emperor is not a simple rebirth. Every time he is reborn, the skills and attributes he releases are different, and he is not simply repeating the previous routine.
This brings great difficulty to the players. They must understand the specific situation of the Jade Emperor after each resurrection in order to be able to arrange different professions in a targeted manner and carry some targeted props.
Players who can play the game to this level have already broken away from being new and have a sense of cooperation. Therefore, the subsequent BOSS emphasizes cooperation more and more, and the Jade Emperor is the pinnacle of this awareness.
Not to mention other things, just to remember the skill attributes and other information of each resurrection, you need to take out a notebook and record it in detail. It is basically impossible to just rely on your brain to memorize it.
Although Zhao Yi had no problem with his operation and his equipment was okay, he still lost to the Jade Emperor and died gloriously without taking out his first life.
It is impossible to kill a boss like this by relying on one's own ability. This is no longer just about dexterity. There must be enough people, tacit cooperation, and reasonable props. Only under such circumstances can it be possible to kill him.
But Zhao Yi also has a hidden attribute that is incredible, and that is GM. As long as he has the identity of GM, is there a BOSS that he can't defeat
So Zhao Yi directly gave himself an invincible attribute, stood in front of the Jade Emperor, and killed the Jade Emperor with one blow, killing the Jade Emperor completely with 99 swords.
After the Jade Emperor finally fell, he found that the entire map was filled with light, and the game system also used large golden characters to announce the good news to the whole server.
In this way, the sense of satisfaction will be overwhelming. Being able to kill the Jade Emperor means that they are the top people in the server and the top gaming guild.
Because it was Zhao Yi who killed him alone, a complete top-level suit immediately appeared. After Zhao Yi picked it up and put it on, it was already so cool that Zhao Yi felt very cool. Then It’s just really cool, really cool.
As long as he puts on this suit and walks in the main city of the game, he will definitely be the brightest kid in the whole process. When other people look at him, they can only pay attention.
I just don’t know if I dare to go out into the wild after wearing this set of equipment. After all, the 1% drop rate is no joke. (End of chapter)
