The rules of Lianlianlian were simple.
As long as two of the same pictures were connected by three straight lines, they could be eliminated.
The rules were easy to learn. Just a few clicks and you would know how to play.
How should one put it?
This game was even simpler than Dou Dizhu.
There were many other ways to play Dou Dizhu, but Lianlianlian only needed to connect two of the same pictures.
If one felt that this game was not fun, then indeed, in the eyes of many people, this game was not fun.
However, for many girls and people who wanted to kill time, it was much more fun.
Especially for girls.
There were very few games suitable for girls to play, although some girls liked to play online games and cards.
However, the number of girls who played online games and played cards was still lower.
However, when Lianlianlian was released, it instantly attracted the attention of many female netizens.
"Sisters, let's play Lianlianlian together."
"Lianlianlian, what is this?"
"You'll know when you click on it."
There was no need to explain at all. You just needed to take a look and you would know.
"Haha, so this is how it is played."
"Fun, fun."
"Let's see who's faster."
Lianlianlian was not a click game. In a sense, it was also an online game.
However, it was not leveling up by killing monsters. It was PK with other netizens. The PK was to see who had the fastest hand speed.
Whoever connected all the patterns in the game first would be the winner.
Moreover, there were all kinds of levels in this game.
Some levels were easy to connect, while others were hard to connect.
In addition, there were all kinds of props in this game. Using these props could achieve unexpected results.
After playing for a while, Lianlianlian conquered the girls.
Since it could conquer the girls, the male netizens who came with the girls were also conquered.
Yes.
That's right.
Girls always cherished babies on the Internet. According to the data, a female player could bring six boys in. Needless to say, on YY's instant messaging system, the boys she brought over were not just six people, but a bunch.
Following the network cable, many male netizens with ulterior motives also entered the room and watched Lianlianlian with them.
Ah, don't the boys feel ashamed playing Lianlianlian?
What did that have to do with anything?
The group of male players was not playing Lianlianlian. They were cultivating relationships with their female netizens.
Moreover, Zeng Xiaoxian's best game in the future was Lianlianlian.
"Zhi Dong, how long will it take to play Lianlianlian?"
"At least half a month."
"Now, let's do our best to create the Consecutive Divination."
"That won't do, Pony. Victorious Return is still in the open beta. There's still a lot of bugs that need fixing."
Ma Huateng almost subconsciously asked Zhang Zhidong to make a copy without even thinking about it.
It wasn't that he didn't want to consider it. After working with Huanyu Technologies for a while, he could see the capabilities of Huanyu Technologies. Moreover, Ma Huateng also went to the internet café to take a look. In just a few days, the girls in the internet café had already started playing Link to Link.
Such a method of attracting popularity was truly terrifying.
If they didn't come up with it as soon as possible, QQ Games would probably lose everything.
"Zhi Dong, no matter what, you have to get him out even if you have to stay up all night."
"F * ck, you're asking for my life."
Zhang Zhidong frowned.
However, he also knew the seriousness of the matter.
"Alright, I'll work overtime to get it done."
Gritting his teeth, Zhang Zhidong decided to go all out.
Unfortunately, although Zhang Zhidong's skills were amazing, he couldn't split himself.
He was in charge of both Victorious Return and QQ Games' technology.
Although this responsibility didn't require him to write line after line of code, as the overall person in charge, it involved a lot of energy.
Imitating YY's Link to Link wasn't a big problem, but Victorious Return really had all kinds of bugs popping up everywhere.
Moreover, they were currently in the open beta. Now that there was a fee, there was a limit to the players' patience.
In the closed beta, if you took a few days to fix the bugs, no one would say anything. But in the open beta, if you didn't immediately fix the bugs, the players would just delete your account and say goodbye. You wouldn't even have time to cry.
As a result, while Zhang Zhidong was pouring more energy into QQ Games, Ceng Liqing and the others pulled him over to deal with these bugs first.
Link to Link could originally be made in 15 days, but looking at the progress of the quest, it would take at least a month.
Well, right now, even a month might not be enough.
Two weeks after Link to Link to Link was released, another simple and fun game from Huanyu Technologies appeared.
It was called Xiao Xiao Le.
Xiao Xiao Le and Link to Link to Link to Link were different methods to achieve the same result.
Players only needed to gather three or more images in the game to remove the pattern.
Whoever eliminated more would get more points.
This was not only a competition of quick eyes and quick hands, but also a little bit of brain power.
This was because there were many patterns in Candy Crush that could be eliminated. Sometimes, only three patterns could be eliminated, but sometimes, four, five, or even hundreds of patterns could be eliminated with a different method.
"Pony, Huanyu Technologies has created another mini-game. What should we do now?"
"Don't get distracted. After we're done with Lianlian, we'll do Candy Crush."
"Then I'm really going to die."
Although Zhang Zhidong was a technical maniac, no matter how much of a technical maniac he was, he wouldn't be able to handle such a large workload.
"Alright, I'll hold on a little longer."
As the chief technical officer of Penguin, Zhang Zhidong didn't even go home. He ate, drank, lived, and slept in the company.
Of course, in order to share the joys and sorrows with Zhang Zhidong, Ma Huateng also went all out to accompany him.
Although Ma Huateng's skills were average, he was very imaginative.
From time to time, when he was developing Lianban and Anipop, he would also add in some other ideas.
"Zhidong, hold on for a little longer."
"Yes, I know."
"Pony, your dark circles are so heavy."
"It's okay. I can hold on. How about you?"
"I'm fine too. I can hold on even more."
Everyone was holding on with their willpower.
Even if the dark circles under his eyes were getting bigger and bigger, it was nothing.
"Three more days, Pony. We can finish Lianban in three more days."
"That's great. Zhidong, you're the best. Take a break."
"I can't take a break. There's still Candy Crush to come."
"Okay."
Although Ma Huateng also wanted Zhang Zhidong to take a break.
But after seeing Candy Crush, Ma Huateng had to harden his heart.
However, while they could harden their hearts, the technical staff of Penguin couldn't help but complain.
They were just ordinary employees. The boss worked day and night, but they couldn't work day and night every day.
It was okay to work for a few days, but for a month or two, even a person made of iron couldn't stand it.
This also caused many programmers in Penguin's technical department to be hospitalized during this period.
But this still didn't defeat Penguin.
Penguin's willpower was so strong.
However, just as they were looking forward to the launch of Lianban on QQ, Huanyu Technologies released a new game.
"Everyone Is Here to Find Fault."
Lianban, Candy Crush, and now "Everyone Is Here to Find Fault."
Huanyu Technologies released three casual games in a row, which instantly stunned Penguin.
Moreover, after "Everyone Is Here to Find Fault," Huanyu Technologies updated a status in the YY game.
There was a sentence written on it:
Always imitated, never surpassed.
