Super Tycoon

Chapter 523 The rise of online games

Seeing the popularity of Legend and Miracle, many game companies have also discovered business opportunities. Instead of selling games to those game console manufacturers, or making money by selling game CDs, it is better to learn the network charging model of Zhiduoxing, so that all the money can be earned in your own pocket.

Legend and Miracle developed rapidly last year. After a period of decline, they grew rapidly again this year. It can be expected that the long-term paying users of Legend will exceed 10 million this year, and Miracle also has hope.

If there are 10 million people, and each person buys a 50-yuan time card every month, then the annual income is 6 billion RMB.

What's more, according to calculations, there may be more than 10 million legendary paying players in the Chinese mainland market. Although the performance of the overseas market cannot be compared with the mainland, it is not difficult to have another 10 million paying players.

The two online games may have a revenue of 3 billion US dollars a year, which is amazing!

Many game companies are not so ambitious, and they also know that their promotion efforts are not as strong as Zhiduoxing, but one-tenth of the head office is right?

Even if it is only in the mainland, that is, one million paying players, with an annual income of 600 million RMB, excluding R\u0026D, promotion and operating costs, at least one or two million yuan a year, right?

From their point of view, maybe it doesn't cost that much money to develop a large-scale online game, tens of millions is enough. Of course, for the vast majority of game development companies at this time, they can't even come up with 10 million funds.

It can be financed. Nowadays, there are many venture capitalists who like to invest in the software industry and the Internet industry. Their online games can also attract many investors, mainly because of the game gems of Zhiduoxing Company.

With an example, it is easy to attract investment.

Looking at other people's online games, they are not without popularity. For example, in the Stone Age developed by the island country, after a Chinese company acted as an agent, it also made a lot of money.

They thought about it for a while, and they didn't need to make too many changes, as long as they imitated the plots of these popular online games, and even the images of characters and equipment could be imitated.

In fact, in the mouths of many game developers, when the planning department designs a game character image or a game plot, those developers will be very impatient and interrupt the description of the planner. Just tell me which part of the game is more similar to it. up.

Although it cannot be copied, it is much simpler to make a few changes.

That's why there will be so many homogeneous games on the market in the future. What type of game do you have?

There will be many listings of the same type soon, and the market cannot be monopolized by anyone anyway.

How is it like now, firstly, there are not many game companies, and secondly, there are not so many templates. In addition, some companies want to imitate Zhiduoxing's online games, but they don't have the strength.

Just the design of a map and monsters is not a small amount of work. At the beginning, Zhiduoxing Group used hundreds of people and took more than two years to complete.

Moreover, there are already companies under the Zhiduoxing Group that are making other types of online games, and they all see the potential of online games.

In fact, the number of registered players of Legend and Miracle has already exceeded 100 million at this time, but there are not so many people who are willing to play every day, and the number of people who are online at the same time is also slightly small.

Zhang Yang knows that these two games still have great potential. As long as it is run well, it can bring billions of dollars in profits to the company in the future.

The legend of the previous life really opened the era of Internet games in China. There were also before, but they were far from the popularity of legends.

And in this life, the legend was launched earlier, with better operation, and the game has also been optimized. Moreover, the opening speed of Internet cafes in Huaxia is also faster than in the previous life.

Some people say that the development of Internet cafes is promoted by online games. In fact, it has a lot to do with the improvement of Internet speed, the appearance of Penguin, and the increasingly rich content of web pages. After all, not everyone likes to play games.

But in the Internet cafe at this time, at least half of the people are playing games, and more of them are playing online games, mainly legends and miracles.

Zhang Yang had nothing to do today, so he ran to Jia Tao's Internet cafe. Once you enter the door and lift the thick curtain, you can hear the hustle and bustle inside.

"Fight the fire ant first. The Taoist will give me blood and defense, I can't stand it anymore!"

"Fuck, you come to the mine, fourth brother. I dug out the black iron ore. Someone sneaked up and tried to steal it. Let's kill him instead!"

"Hahahaha, I made a magic shield, and now I'm rich!"

"Fuck, do you know how to play Tm, and you still lost in three-on-two, you adjust the attack mode, you know if your firewall burns to me!"

"Boss, take a bottle of Coke, machine 23."

"Boss, a pack of Hongtashan, Unit 14."

"Boss, a braised beef noodle, soaked with a piece of ham sausage, machine No. 8."

Some were playing games, some were chatting, and some were asking for various things from the bar. The Internet cafe was very lively, and all the seats were already full.

Originally, there were only 30 machines in this Internet cafe, and the place was quite empty, but at the end of last year, another 20 machines were added, and this time it is considered full.

Of course it could be more crowded, but Jia Tao didn't make it that way under Zhang Yang's suggestion. A little roominess makes it easier to get back and forth, and it also puts those surfers in a better mood.

Moreover, the twenty machines are not placed in the lobby, but are divided into small boxes with boards. The Internet access in private rooms is more expensive, but many people still like to use private rooms, especially when they sleep overnight at night.

"Zhang Yang, why are you here?" Jia Tao was delivering a bowl of instant noodles to someone.

"Come and see you kid. Why, I heard that you don't work overtime now? This Internet cafe looks very lively, is it full every day?"

"Hey, it's about the same, except that there are fewer people in the morning. By noon, the seats are basically full quickly. It's the same when the night is reserved."

"I heard that there is a place not far away that is also being renovated, and it seems to want to set up an Internet cafe. But I am all members here, so I don't believe they can snatch it."

There is a milk tea shop downstairs, and his Internet cafe upstairs. I heard that the bookstore on the other side is about to move out, and he plans to rent it out and expand the Internet cafe.

Although he invested 300,000 yuan, he still hasn't made a dime back, but a few days ago someone asked for 500,000 yuan for his Internet cafe, but he didn't agree.

Now this flow of water proves that it is impossible for Internet cafes to lose money. He plans to buy a car next year, so it will be more convenient to go anywhere.

"What games are popular in Internet cafes now? Can someone promote new games?"

"Those are the ones that are popular, mainly Zhiduoxing's. There are also people who come to promote new games, but not many people play them. Who would have thought that so many people play online games, and so many people play them during the Chinese New Year."

"Zhang Yang, is there any small business you don't like?"
