"Boss Chen, I think we should start planning for the next MMORPG."
Zou Tao submitted a proposal for the next MMORPG after Legend of Mir broke the 1,000,000 mark.
This piqued Chen Yu's interest. "We only have one MMORPG, so it's a bit too simple. In the future, the MMORPG community will continue to expand. We need to have more games. "
Chen Yu opened the proposal and was somewhat surprised. "A 3D game?"
"Yes."
"Zou Tao, didn't you say you weren't optimistic about 3D games?"
"Boss Chen, I'm not optimistic about Victorious Return. It's not that I'm not optimistic about 3D games. I think 3D games will be a trend in the future."
"Can we make a 3D game with our technology?"
"It's a bit difficult."
Zou Tao was somewhat embarrassed. "Previously, our team in Legend of Mir was formed on a temporary basis. It's possible to make a 2D game, but it's really difficult to make a 3D game. However, Tsinghua University is currently working on a 3D engine. I think we can pull them into our team. "
"I approve this project."
Chen Yu nodded.
However, Chen Yu felt that a 3D game project alone wasn't enough.
In the future, a well-known game company would have at least dozens of games under their belt.
Not to mention Shengda. In the previous timeline, Shengda had over 100 games.
Although many of them weren't very famous, they still released many classics.
In this era where MMORPG was the most profitable, it would be a sin not to make money.
"Oh right, the original Legend of Mir game project team will split off a group of people. We'll develop a casual game. I've already thought of a name. It'll be called Bubble Hall. "
Zou Tao's group of game developers had some skills, but they weren't particularly strong.
Developing a 3D game was too difficult, but developing a few small games was still possible.
Therefore, Chen Yu handed over the Bubble Hall project to the original team in charge of Legend of Mir.
"A casual game."
"That's right. It's mainly targeted at female players and young people. Oh right, Zou Tao, have you played Bomberman before? "
"You mean the one in Little Tyrant where you put a bubble to explode people?"
"Yes, that's the one. I think we can adapt Bomberman into an MMORPG."
"It's possible, but how much will we charge?"
Zou Tao recalled Bomberman: "I seem to recall that it's a level game."
"We can make it into a PVP mode, just like Counter Strike, where we fight in groups of two. As for the fees, this kind of casual MMORPG is different from leveling up MMORPG. If you use a card, it might not be suitable. "
Not long ago, Shengda was a casual MMORPG, but it was still a VS MMORPG MMORPG game.
However, after the agency, there was no more news. Sheng Da had never released the number of concurrent users.
Mmorpg Mmorpg Mmorpg, Mmorpg Mpg.
Mmorpg Mmormorpg Mmormorpg Mmorpg Mmorpg MMORPG.
"Therefore, we won't use point cards. Our game is free to all players."
"Mmorpg.
Zou Tao could not believe it. "Boss Chen, how are we going to make money if it's free?"
"Don't worry, it's not really free. Just like our YY, our YY is also free, but can't we make money from our YY? "
"Are you referring to advertising?"
"Other than advertising?"
"Boss Chen, do you mean we'll charge for props?"
"Bingo."
Chen Yu nodded. "Our model is free + props."
"Everyone can try the game for free. At the same time, if they don't spend money, it won't affect their gaming experience. Of course, if they spend money, the gaming experience will be better. "
"I understand."
Zou Tao was still worried. "Boss Chen, although the free + props model is feasible, what if people don't buy the props?"
"How can they not buy it? Penguin Corporation's QQ Show was bought by a lot of people."
With that said, Chen Yu remembered that YY also wanted to hold a YY show.
Making money was not a big deal, but increasing user retention was a big deal.
Not only could YY Show make money, but it could also increase user retention.
Previously, YY mainly focused on chatting. It did not matter if they did not have a YY Show.
However, it was different now. YY was going to take the social route. How could they not use a YY Show that could increase their vanity?
"Gamers have a higher spending power than other gamers. Although it looks like they can try the game for free without spending money, it's fine. However, in the process of playing the game, other people will show off in front of you with all kinds of flashy costumes and props. It's hard to be reserved. "
Thinking back to his previous life, Chen Yu could not help but spend a few dozen yuan to buy the wings and the Phantom.
It did not matter if you did not spend money, there would always be someone who would.
And there would be many people who would spend money.
Of course, this free + props model could also be suitable for traditional online games where people leveled up and fought monsters.
For example, he could create a free version of the Legend of Mir.
However, it was not time for that yet. There was no need for a free version.
After arranging the second game project, Chen Yu called Li Nan over.
He mentioned the YY Show to Li Nan. Then, Chen Yu asked Li Nan to speed up the development of a series of small games such as Watch Link and Watch Link and Disappear Show.
Currently, QQ Games had lost in the competition with YY Games. However, it did not die. QQ Games and QQ Games had so many people. There were still new players entering every day.
If he wanted to completely destroy QQ Games, he would need to add more firepower.
After giving the instructions, Chen Yu thought about which online games would be more profitable in the future.
League of Legends was one.
However, that was not urgent.
So was PUBG.
That was even less urgent.
CF and DNF were also popular games. That was not urgent.
That's right.
Fantasy Westward Journey.
In terms of the most profitable online games in the country, Fantasy Westward Journey was definitely in the top three.
In terms of the longest lifespan and the most profitable game in the country, Fantasy Westward Journey should be in first place.
In 2012, Fantasy Westward Journey had 2.71 million concurrent players. It shocked many people.
What was even more unbelievable was that Fantasy Westward Journey still maintained the original card-based fees even though there were a lot of free online games at that time. They even increased the price of the Point Card later on. It went from 45 cents per hour to 60 cents.
Just thinking about such a profitable game made Chen Yu's heart beat faster.
In his previous life, Fantasy Westward Journey was released in December 2003.
It was now 2002. There was still a year and a half to go. Chen Yu still had time.
More importantly, NetEase had not started on Fantasy Westward Journey.
They were still focusing on Fantasy Westward Journey 2.
However, time was tight. They only had a year and a half. At most, two years.
If you don't create this game before NetEase, then you won't have any chance at all.
"Xu Bo."
Thinking about Fantasy Westward Journey, Chen Yu thought of the most important person in Fantasy Westward Journey.
"Wang Chang, get a headhunter to poach Xu Bo."
Chen Yu called Wang Chang from the marketing department.
