"My sweetheart is a hero of the world. One day, he will come to marry me on seven-colored clouds. I guessed the beginning right, but I didn't guess the ending."
"There was once a sincere love in front of me, but I didn't cherish it. When I lost it, I regretted it. The most painful thing in the world is this. If God can give me a chance to do it again, I will say three words to that girl: I love you. If I have to add a time limit to this love, I hope it will be … 10,000 years. "
"Look, that person looks like a dog."
Some people in later generations commented, why did Journey to the West fail?
Many people said that the plot might be too complicated.
But more people would say that Journey to the West was too ahead of its time.
In this case, Journey to the West, which was broadcast in 1995, failed.
Then, Journey to the West in 2001, let's look back at this movie.
It has become a classic in the hearts of countless people.
If it weren't for this post, perhaps many people would have forgotten about this movie.
When this article appeared, the Journey to the West completely exploded on the Internet.
"I can't love you when I wear the golden hoop. I can't save you when I take off the golden hoop. When I was Sun Wukong, I could protect you, but I couldn't love you. If you want to save Zixia, you have to defeat the Bull Demon King. If you want to defeat the Bull Demon King, you have to become Sun Wukong. If you want to become Sun Wukong, you have to cut off the seven emotions and wear the golden hoop. I'm afraid this is the saddest time in the world. "
"After watching Journey to the West again, I cried."
"I cried too."
At this moment, only the ending song of Journey to the West echoed in the ears of countless audiences.
[The past, the present, the past, will never come again.
Red, fallen leaves, buried in the dust.
The beginning and the end are always the same.
You drift on the horizon, beyond the white clouds.
The sea of bitterness turns up love and hate.
In the world, it's hard to escape fate.
Blind dates, can't be approached.
Maybe I should, believe that it's fate …]
…
"Xu Bo, you're right. For the future of Journey to the West, I agree to this meltdown."
After a week of thinking, Ding Lei finally made up his mind and prepared to remake Journey to the West.
However, when Ding Lei called Xu Bo to the office to announce this decision, Xu Bo's expression was a little strange.
"Xu Bo, do you have something to say?"
"This …"
"What are you talking about? If you have something to say, just say it."
"Director Ding, I don't know if I should go back to the furnace now."
Xu Bo said weakly, his heart on the verge of breaking down.
"What do you mean?"
Ding Lei looked at Xu Bo. "You mean we should hold on a little longer?"
"This …"
"What are you saying?"
Ding Lei was a little angry. "In the beginning, you were the one who said to persist. Later, you were the one who said to go back to the furnace. Now, you're saying to persist …"
He felt that Xu Bo was a little unreliable.
No matter how capable he was, he was too hesitant when it came to making specific decisions.
If he was just a technician, it might not be a big deal. However, if he was given full authority to operate a project, something big would definitely happen.
"Director Ding, you misunderstood."
Xu Bo probably knew Ding Lei's evaluation of him at this moment, so he quickly explained, "Boss Ding, it's mainly because the number of people online at the same time has reached a new high."
"Ah?"
Ding Lei was stunned. "Another new record?"
Didn't they talk about the bottle's shin?
Didn't they say that the game was full of bugs?
Didn't they say that the classes were unbalanced?
"How many have you created?"
"40,000?"
"No."
"Don't tell me it can reach 50,000?"
"No."
"How many?"
"100,000."
When he reported this number, Xu Bo was also a little uneasy.
One had to know that he had been on tenterhooks for the past few days.
Almost every hour, or even every minute, Journey to the West was constantly creating new records.
At first, he thought that there was a bug and that the data was wrong.
However, later on, he found that the data was not wrong. These were all real players.
"100,000?"
Ding Lei was also shocked by the number of people online at the same time.
100,000.
What did 100,000 mean?
Currently, the most popular Legend of Mir only had about 150,000.
Of course, if that was all, it would be fine.
Journey to the West was charged by the point card. Every hour was 4 points, and every point was 10 cents.
In other words, it would cost 40 cents to play Journey to the West for an hour.
If 100,000 people were online at the same time, then 24 hours would be about 10 yuan. The daily turnover would reach 1 million.
In a month, that would be 30 million.
In a year, it would be more than 300 million.
Why the game was so profitable? You would know after doing the math.
"Are you kidding?"
"Mr. Ding, I'm not kidding. This is the real data."
As he spoke, Xu Bo handed the backend number of people online at the same time to Ding Lei.
"I have to take a look at the backend."
"Mr. Ding, please follow me."
Although the data was accurate, Ding Lei was still in disbelief.
If Journey to the West could really break 100,000 players online at the same time, then NetEase would be rich.
"Mr. Ding, this is our backend database."
"Look, the number of people online at the same time broke the high value of 100,000. However, many of them are players below level 7. There are still some who are not charged. If we really charge, it might be slightly lower than 100,000. "
"Even so, we expect that most people will continue to try the game after level 7."
Journey to the West did not charge for players below level 7.
Xu Bo introduced the backend database to Ding Lei.
"Good, that's great. Xu Bo, well done."
Ding Lei clenched his fists. Even though he had seen a lot of money, he was still very excited.
It seemed that taking the game route was the right choice.
Based on this scale, this game alone, after deducting the development cost, operation cost, and promotion cost, could earn them hundreds of millions in a year.
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Ding, but this is not my work."
"Oh?"
"This was promoted by a game website company that we worked with."
Xu Bo then told Ding Lei about "Journey to the West: Love You for 10,000 Years" that 5173 had been promoting online.
After Ding Lei heard about it, he was very impressed with 5173.
"Xu Bo, you did well. Although 5173 played the main role in promoting the game, you were still in charge of the entire operation. You also had a part to play in it. "
"Thank you, Mr. Ding. Then, are we still going to go back to our game? "
"About this …"
Ding Lei had a headache when he heard this.
For the future, Ding Lei had already made the decision to go back to its original state.
However, there were more than 100,000 players online at the same time. If he went back to its original state, he would be scolded to death.
"How about this, we'll operate the game first. I'll get most of the technical staff to help you solve most of the bugs in the game."
"As for the job imbalance that you mentioned, although we can't solve it immediately, as long as we have enough technical staff, we can modify the game while operating it."
"We'll also prepare to release a new version of Journey to the West. Once the new version of Journey to the West is released, we'll move the current Journey to the West. "
"Move the game … Mr. Ding, this is a good idea."
Xu Bo also clapped his hands and praised.
This arrangement could solve the various bugs in Journey to the West and also maintain the current popularity.
Of course, it was easy to say, but the cost was not small.
However, Xu Bo could see that Ding Lei was ready to focus on Journey to the West.
"Oh right, 5173 is very good. Although it's just a game website, their marketing experience is very good. Ask them if they want to join NetEase. "
"You mean to buy them?"
"If they want to. Of course, it's fine if they don't want to. However, we have to maintain a good relationship with them. "
"Don't worry, Mr. Ding. The person in charge of 5173 is very interesting, and I also admire him. We've had a good time working together recently. In addition, we still have 800,000 yuan in marketing fees that we haven't given to him. "
"Only 800,000 yuan in marketing fees?"
"In addition to the 200,000 in advance, it's a total of 1 million yuan."
"1 million yuan is not a lot. Give them 2 million yuan later."
Ding Lei, who had seen a lot of money, did not care about 1 million yuan at all. He said generously.
"What about the finances?"
"Just tell them what I said."
"Yes."
