"Everyone, let's study this game."
"Boss, what game?"
"Battle."
"Didn't we say we were going to make a paid game?"
"After playing this game, I think it's more profitable to make a free-to-play game."
Shi Yuzhu, who had been chased out of the social network by Huanyu Technologies without much effort, stared at Battle on the computer.
Speaking of which, he was very unconvinced.
He became famous very early.
In his early years, he was already famous all over the country.
Although he later went bankrupt, he made a comeback with the help of health supplements.
Originally, he thought that the social network was a very good opportunity. In fact, it was. However, he still underestimated the strength of Huanyu Technologies. Huanyu Technologies announced their entry into the social network field, which also announced their failure.
Shi Yuzhu was a little unconvinced.
However, after studying Huanyu Technologies, he realized that if he wanted to enter the social network field, he would not be successful.
This was not just limited to social networking sites like 51net.
In addition, he could not enter instant messaging sites.
One had to know that in this field, Shi Yuzhu was not the first to be KO-ed by Huanyu Technologies.
Of course, Shi Yuzhu would not be the last.
In the end, he began to consider the game proposed by Chen Yu.
After a period of observation, he realized that although Chen Yu had chased him out of the social network field, the game was a very good idea. Although the overlord in this field was the existence of Huanyu Technologies, Huanyu Technologies only occupied a part of the market.
He had not monopolized this market yet.
At the same time, he did not have the ability to monopolize this market.
There was still a considerable part of the market that Huanyu Technologies did not occupy.
In Shi Yuzhu's research, he realized that online games could not form their own ecosystem. Therefore, he did not have any adhesion.
Players could not play a game until they went bankrupt. They would always play other games.
Moreover, all kinds of players had all kinds of favorite games.
Every game could capture all the players in one fell swoop.
As long as you made a good game, you could make money.
This was a market that everyone could compete in.
This was also a relatively fairer and more profitable field in the internet industry.
For this reason, Shi Yuzhu began to prepare a chargeable game.
He had made a special study of this.
Although there were free games in the market, in general, paid games were more profitable.
However, after he played Expedition, he changed his point of view.
Previously, they thought that fee-based games were profitable because Huanyu Technologies did not make free-to-play games.
It was only after Huanyu Technologies created free-to-play games that he realized what a truly profitable game was.
Just like now.
Shi Yuzhu had spent more than one million yuan on the game just to experience the game in a special way.
However, even if it was one million, he was still not the most powerful player in the game.
At most, he could only be considered as one of the top few.
And this could only be the country that he was from.
"Boss, is there anything fun about this game?"
"There are too many things that are fun to play. You guys can try it out later. You'll know once you experience it. What I want to say now is that this game really knows how to make rich people throw money at it. I suspect that Chen Yu must have participated in the design of the top floor. "
"Boss, what do you mean?"
"Come, let me show you. This is the Nation War System that was developed by Expedition."
"The Nation War System is a competition between countries?"
"Something like that."
Shi Yuzhu nodded. "That's what it sounds like. However, on a deeper level, you'll realize that the competition between countries is not as simple as PK."
"Boss, we're not very clear about it. Can you explain more?"
"Of course. Let's give an example. Take an ordinary gang competition. How would it be fought? In other words, the two guilds would PK on the same map. However, a Nation War is different. A Nation War is not only about PK, but also about resources and people. For example, yesterday, Song Nation and Qi Nation started a Nation War. In order to win against each other, the Kings of the two nations spent nearly five million yuan. In addition to spending on their own equipment, they also spent a series of resources. Moreover, in order to get more people to participate in the Nation War, they even paid salaries to those who participated in the Nation War … In a single war, the resources spent would be in the millions. "
"Also, do you think that it's okay to win against each other? It's not that simple. This game is like the Spring and Autumn Period. There are dozens of countries in the game. Every country has a King, and every King wants to be the Emperor. In order to become the Emperor, one has to be like Qin Shi Huang in history. He has to destroy a bunch of countries before he can unify the world. "
"Think about it. If a Nation War costs so much money, how much would it cost to destroy all the countries?"
It might be an astronomical figure.
Or perhaps, Shi Yuzhu thought that after the game was released, he might not be able to become the Emperor.
One had to know that every King was not someone who could be trampled on easily. Their strength was also very terrifying.
"Boss, are there any Kings who are not interested in the Nation War and let them fight?"
"It's impossible for them not to be interested."
Shi Yuzhu shook his head. "Take a look at the versions of these countries. Where is Qi Nation? It's near Dongshan Province. As long as you choose Qi Nation, a lot of players will be from Dongshan Province. Those who choose Chu Nation will be from Beihu Province. Those who choose Yan Nation will be from Beibei City. Not only does it represent a country, but it also represents a region. Even the ordinary players in the region have a strong sense of belonging. "
As soon as he said that, Shi Yuzhu's subordinates immediately understood.
Qi Nation is the best?
Chu Nation is not convinced?
Chu Nation is very powerful, but Qin Nation is not convinced.
Qin Nation is very powerful, but it is no longer the Qin Nation in history. The people of Beibei City are not convinced by Yan Nation.
In the midst of such dissatisfaction, countless battles were waged, and attrition occurred.
In such a back and forth war, the one who made the most money was Huanyu Technologies.
"So, our next game will be a free-to-play game."
"I've already thought of a name. It's called Journey."
Extremely excited, Shi Yuzhu made up his mind.
…
"Boss Zhang, how's the factory?"
"Boss Chen, the factory is secondary. The main thing is a series of equipment."
"Understood. Those equipment are quite expensive. Oh right, do we have a chance to build a photolithography machine?"
"Boss Chen, don't think too much. Let's focus on the OEM side first."
The most important equipment needed for OEM was the photolithography machine.
This was also the key product that was strangled by the Americans in Feng Yu's previous life.
Of course, it was not that the Chinese could not produce the photolithography machine. It was just that their technological level was too far behind.
Other countries were already producing photolithography machines below 10 nanometers, but our country was still working on 100 nanometers.
Think about how big the gap was between 100 nanometers and 10 nanometers.
"Of course we will do the OEM. But Boss Zhang, I think we should also do the photolithography machine."
"Why, Boss Chen? Are you interested in the photolithography machine again?"
"I'm not interested. Since I'm making chips, I'm interested in all the industries in the chip industry."
"There's no need to do all of them."
"Although it doesn't seem necessary, I'm worried that some countries might restrict us."
"This …"
Zhang Rujing understood what Chen Yu meant.
He was in the semiconductor industry, and technology was the most important thing in the semiconductor industry.
Back then, Zhang Zhongmou had used countless methods to stop Zhang Rujing from setting up a factory in China.
TSMC was already like this. In the future, the competition between countries would definitely not be so simple.
"Boss Chen, I understand what you mean. But these things have to be done step by step. Moreover, you see that our OEM business is not good enough. Do you still want to challenge the more advanced photolithography machine? "
"Haha, Boss Zhang, you want me to pay you, right?"
Chen Yu had promised Zhang Rujing 300 million yuan a month. In the blink of an eye, almost a month had passed.
"Boss Chen, this is what you promised."
"Okay."
Chen Yu nodded. "Of course, I'll keep my promise. 300 million yuan a month, right? How about this … Boss Zhang, I'll give you 500 million yuan. "
Recently, Battle Online was very popular on the Internet.
At the same time, the number of people online kept reaching new highs. Battle Online's revenue was also flowing in.
Even though Chen Yu had already thought that Expedition would be a very profitable game, he still couldn't accept it.
But he did not expect it to be so profitable.
Chen Yu counted.
In the first month alone, Battle Online's turnover reached 400 million yuan.
The net profit also reached 360 million yuan.
As for why the profit was so high …
One reason was that the profit margin of online games was very high.
Another reason was that when you made more money, the expenses would not necessarily skyrocket.
For example, the promotion cost of making a game was tens of millions. If one million people were online at the same time, it would also be tens of millions. If five million people were online at the same time, the promotion cost would also be tens of millions.
As for the cost of manpower, it was even less.
360 million yuan plus some money earned from other projects of Huanyu Technologies. Chen Yu had collected 500 million yuan.
Seeing that Center International was also in need of money, Chen Yu was generous and directly added 200 million yuan.
According to this calculation, he only needed half a year to make up for the loss of Center International.
"500 million …"
Zhang Rujing was dumbfounded. "Where did you get so much money?"
The speed at which Chen Yu was earning money gave Zhang Rujing a fright.
He had just spent 10 billion yuan and was still carrying 3 billion yuan in interest.
In the blink of an eye, this guy had earned another 500 million yuan in one month.
This was like robbing a bank.
No.
Even robbing a bank would not make so much money.
"Didn't I tell you before? Make a game."
"You mean the newly released game, Battle Online?"
"Yes, what about it?"
"Making a game can make so much money?"
"You don't know?"
After saying that, Chen Yu said in an extremely tempting tone, "Boss Zhang, how about I take you to make a game? I promise to make money. If you don't make money, I will compensate you."
"That's great."
"However, Boss Zhang, at least give me some benefits if I take you to make a game."
"What benefits do you want?"
"Well, can you give me some more shares of Center International?"
"Get lost …"
Zhang Rujing gritted his teeth in anger.
At the end of the day, this guy wanted to have a controlling stake in Center International.
