Chapter 511 The plan to turn over 100 million yuan

"Boss, I named this new expansion pack of "Audition" "Audition: Full House"." Cui Mingze put a demo disc into the projector with a smile on his face.

"Now in "Audition: All-Star Lineup", players have more and more virtual stars. On average, each player has 4.7 celebrity 3D simulation dolls and 5.2 sets of clothes." Cui Mingze took out a data table, "

But as the number of celebrities owned by players increases, their consumption power has now reached a bottleneck. If this continues, players will no longer buy celebrity simulation dolls or matching clothes, and the game will likely operate at a loss."

Cui Mingze's words made Wu Zhaopu and others nod their heads. The revenue of "Audition: All-Star Lineup" mainly comes from players buying star dolls and matching clothes, but when players have a certain aesthetic fatigue for it, it will be difficult for players to pay for it.

Money. Besides, there are only so many celebrities that each player likes. It is impossible to like them all, and naturally they will not buy them all. Even if they purchase the image rights of other celebrities, the impact will be limited and the benefits will be even more limited.

At this time, various houses with very different styles appeared on the big screen, including oriental classical ones, western modern ones, and futuristic conceptual ones. They were all kinds of strange, but they were all extremely beautiful, making people feel a sense of fantasy at a glance.

The feeling of ownership.

"Boss, this is the scene of the new expansion pack "Audition: Full House" that I designed. I will add a separate room for all players in "Audition", and after players log in to the game, they will directly

Appear in this personal private room. Of course, we have only designed 256 types of rooms for the time being. The prices of each room are different, from the cheapest 18 yuan a set to the most expensive 888 yuan. Players can choose according to their own financial situation.

The situation is free to choose." Cui Mingze showed a sly smile.

Lin Feng looked at the big screen, thoughtfully.

"Team Leader Cui (after the company merger, Cui Mingze changed from the original head of the No. 1 Game Development Department to the leader of the No. 1 Game Development Team), I am afraid it is not just as simple as letting players buy houses. I think, inside the room

Decorations should also be available for purchase, allowing players to decorate them freely," Lin Feng said.

"Boss, you are smart!" Cui Mingze raised a big finger towards Lin Feng.

"Yes, our No. 1 Game Development Team designed 256 houses this time, but the decorations in the rooms include curtains, tables, chairs, sofas, wallpapers, lighting, TVs, etc. There are a total of 15,238 pieces. Each piece

The price of decorations ranges from the cheapest 1 yuan to the most expensive 88 yuan," Cui Mingze said excitedly.

Everyone was horrified. If this scene from "Audition: Full House" can really attract players to buy it, it will once again create an astonishing profit point. This is far from being comparable to the profit from selling celebrity simulation dolls and clothes. Especially when it comes to decoration.

, is a bottomless pit.

Of course, the only prerequisite is that players are willing to spend money to purchase these scenes.

"Haha, in order to encourage players to buy these virtual houses and virtual decorations, I give all star simulation dolls a 'pleasure value'. If the virtual star's 'pleasure value' is high, the star will automatically make up for the player's mistakes during the game

Operation, and I also added unique dreamy dance steps for each star, and all of this needs the star's "pleasure value" to match. On the contrary, if the star's "pleasure value" is low, not only will he not be able to dance brilliantly,

It will also increase the difficulty of the player's operation. I have added four expressions for each star's "pleasure value": Happy (stars with this status will automatically dance the most gorgeous dance steps, which is marked by a big smile on the star's face.

smiling face), smile (stars with this status can occasionally fix the player's erroneous operations, the symbol is a faint smile on the face of the star simulation doll), frustrated (stars with this status will occasionally automatically dance wrong steps, the symbol is the star doll

Frustrated expression on the face), discouraged (celebrities with this state will frequently make mistakes, and the sign is a reluctant expression)." Cui Mingze said.

"I have modified the preferences of each virtual star doll based on the real information of each star, and I am not planning to provide a guide. Players will explore on their own to find out how to increase the 'pleasure value' of the star." Cui Mingze said with a fist.

After listening, everyone pondered for a while. But after a long time, they had to admire Cui Mingze's idea. These four expressions not only increase the fun of the game, but also add a certain element of game development. Each player needs

By matching the layout of different rooms to please celebrities, this is the development category. But undoubtedly, this is a very interesting idea, and it is enough to attract players to invest. Especially the players of "Audition", most of them are female players.

Fans, this naturally attracts them more. The richer the celebrity's expression, the more attractive it is to players.

However, after such modifications, "Audition" will become less and less like a casual entertainment game. Perhaps it can be developed into an online game similar to "The Sims". Each player plays a unique self in it, and

NPCs are stars and celebrities in the real world. Players can make friends with celebrities and celebrities through various social activities in the game, and become friends, partners, and even lovers.

Thinking of this, Lin Feng told Cui Mingze his thoughts.

After hearing Lin Feng's thoughts, everyone was stunned. After being stunned for more than ten minutes, they finally let out an exclamation.

"Boss, you are so talented!" Everyone gave a thumbs up.

If such a game can really be developed, I am afraid it will be welcomed by all players, no, it should be said that it will be welcomed by all people who are eager to meet, interact, and fall in love with celebrities. This is undoubtedly an extremely profitable idea. Of course

, it is also very difficult. For example, the authorization of celebrities is not a simple sale of electronic portrait rights, it involves moral ethics, and there are so many stars and celebrities in the world. If there are fewer stars or celebrities signed, it will definitely not be enough, and there will be too many.

, can the company afford to sign it?

Of course, these are all questions for the future. Now Cui Mingze’s focus is still on “Audition: Full House,” and Lin Feng’s ideas are naturally for the future.

"By the way, Team Leader Cui, regarding the current criticism that "Audition" is the 'first online game for picking up girls' and a 'one-night stand' platform, as a game company, we can't change anything, but we still have a responsibility to remind you."

Lin Feng said.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with the "Second World". Even if the "Second World" wanted to take care of it, it couldn't. However, it was a success and now the "Second World" is the best online game company. Many parents have found that their daughters have

After being deceived in "Audition", I naturally directed my anger at the "Second World". Originally, all this was due to China's traditional education problems. Many parents should tell their children to treat adolescence and early love correctly after they enter adolescence.

attitude. Unfortunately, parents neglected it for various reasons, and they can only blame themselves for causing this tragedy.

Cui Mingze nodded. He really didn't understand this in his heart. In Korea, no, in Western countries around the world, when children grow to a certain stage, they will face the onset of puberty, and parents will educate them on the correct relationship between men and women.

Education. It does not restrict children's love, but only imposes certain restrictions on their intimate behaviors. Although this cannot completely prevent the occurrence of premature sexual behavior, it is enough to allow most adolescents to correctly understand puberty and understand boys and girls.

In China, it seems strange!

Subsequently, Cui Mingze added an announcement on preventing online fraud and online love on the official website of "Audition". As for the effect, only God knows, the earth knows, and no one knows.

Although this announcement made all players look down upon it and basically chose to ignore it. However, the launch of "Audition: Full House" still attracted the attention of all "Audition" players. For increasing the "pleasure value" of virtual stars

", players expressed absolute support. As for the addition of houses and decorations, most players expressed support. Although it costs a lot of money, it adds new fun to the game, and it is also possible to please the virtual stars through different makeup.

It gives all players a sense of freshness and the fun of cultivating the "pleasure value" of stars.

Within just one week of the release of the "Audition: Full House" expansion pack, "Audition" profits reached a new high. In one week, more than 12 million players from various Asian countries purchased a total of more than 11.2 million houses. As for decorations,

120 million pieces were sold, bringing huge profits to the "Second World" that staggered everyone.

In one week, the sales of houses and decorations brought in a total revenue of 920 million yuan. This astonishing profit shocked everyone. No one could believe that "Audition: Full House" would create such astonishing profits.

Even Cui Mingze, who originally conceived of "Audition: Full House", did not expect that the game would be so popular.

In one week, I made 100 million US dollars, which is incredible and exciting.

Luertz and He Guoyuan, who had just joined the "Second World", were even more horrified and speechless. In order to develop CPUs or display chips that lead the industry, their two companies not only need to invest huge R&D expenses,

They also have to bear the high risk of R&D failure, and they also hope that their competitors’ R&D progress will not exceed theirs. Under so many difficulties, the two companies’ annual profits are only a few hundred million US dollars.

"Audition: Full House" is just a bunch of simple data, there is no need to take any risks, and there is no difficulty in developing it. However, such a simple "toy" has made a full US$100 million in one week.

It was too exaggerated. This made the two people and the employees of the two departments look confused, which was beyond their imagination. However, after they woke up, they all felt proud. After all, they now also belong to the "Second World" and belong to the "Second World".

This company that continues to create miracles, they are also proud to join the "Second World".

The industry is not only amazed that "Second World" made $100 million in one week with "Audition: Full House".

China's "First Financial Daily" comments - "Second World" is always creating miracles. It has just acquired "amd" and "ati", making many experts wonder whether "Second World" will lose its way.

"Hand in the most perfect answer sheet. Earn 100 million US dollars in a week. I wonder which online game company can do that! Of course, here, we have to lament that the charm of stars is huge and fans are crazy.

The American "Fortune" magazine also commented - when the "Second World" acquired "amd" and "ati", I originally thought that Lin Feng would enter the hardware industry to challenge the existence of "Intel", but unexpectedly, it exceeded all expectations again.

Unexpected. A profit of 100 million US dollars a week. I think this is much faster and easier than making hardware. But what will this magical Chinese bring after acquiring "amd" and "ati"?

What kind of changes? We will wait and see. But "Intel", you really have to be careful. He is coming.

Taking advantage of this craze, Cui Ming launched the second expansion pack of "Audition: Full House", which added the ability of virtual stars to move in the game. The virtual stars will randomly perform in the room purchased by the player.

Some activities, such as turning on the TV, listening to the radio, being in a daze, or sleeping. Although they are just a few extremely simple actions, they already have a faint flavor of "The Sims" in them.

The launch of this new expansion pack has further stimulated players' pursuit of "Audition: Full House". Most players also spent money to purchase it in order to see their favorite stars and move freely in the virtual room.

More decorations. Many players even turn on the computer and log in to the game for no other reason than to sit in front of the computer, watch their favorite celebrities, and wander around in the houses they personally designed for them.

It was just one afternoon, and there were quite a few such players. There was even an Internet cafe, and half of the players got on the computer, just sitting in front of the computer and watching the celebrities walking around casually. People who didn't know it thought they were watching a movie for the first time.

At the shooting site, still pictures are being taken.

After seeing this scene, Lin Feng decided to add a new "intimacy value" to "Audition: Full House" and opened a small farm in the game where all players can plant flowers.

As well as various fruits, the harvested flowers and fruits can not only be used to decorate the house, but also can be used to please celebrities and increase their favorability (intimacy value) towards you. As the favorability (intimacy value) increases, players can interact with you.

Celebrities become "strangers, familiar faces, acquaintances, ordinary friends, good friends, old friends", etc. When the relationship between the player and the virtual star progresses, the attributes of each virtual star will show the relationship between the player and each virtual star.

The current “relationship” of virtual stars.

This also makes the players of "Audition: Full House" even more crazy. Becoming friends with their favorite stars is undoubtedly everyone's wish. Although it is impossible in reality, it can become a "reality" in virtual reality. Many

The player even personally went to Shanghai and the "Second World" headquarters to send a banner to Lin Feng and thank him for fulfilling his dream.

In response, Lin Feng smiled and told all players on the official website - although I am a businessman, what I sell is not games, but dreams.

This sentence has also become the advertising slogan of "Second World" in the future. When all players play games under "Second World", they all say the same thing - I am not playing a game, but a dream!

The craziness of "Audition: Full House" is still going on, but Cui Mingze has followed Lin Feng's suggestion and is preparing to adapt it into a large-scale online game similar to "The Sims", but I'm afraid it will be called a "virtual community" at that time

It's more relevant. In this "virtual community", players play themselves, and the NPCs inside will be virtual stars. Players can make friends with virtual stars, dance, play games, etc.

But what are the prospects? No one knows, but Cui Mingze has begun to step up development.

Of course, as for the authorization of virtual stars and celebrities in the game, everyone can only hand over this important task to Lin Feng and let Lin Feng negotiate with stars and celebrities around the world.

At this point, return to the "Second World" conference room.

"Captain Qiu, how is "Swordsman Love: Loyalty to the Country"? Lin Feng asked expectantly. Although "Audition: Full House" makes money, it is just a casual entertainment online game and is more popular with female fans and gamers. It is overwhelmingly popular.

Most male players have no love for him. As for the male players, most of them just do it to pick up girls. The so-called money spent is also to pick up girls. What really attracts male players are still large-scale role-playing online games or first-person shooting online games.

"Boss, as of today, "Swordsman Love: Loyalty to the Country" has a total of 12 supercomputers and a total of three game servers, which can accommodate a total of 600,000 online players (each server can accommodate 200,000 online players)

.So far, it has basically remained at full capacity of 600,000 online." Qiu Xin said with both amazement and pride.

There has never been any online game like the "Swordsman Love: Loyalty to the Country" developed by him that can keep the server at full load.

During work, the server login button of "Swordsman Love: Loyalty to the Country" is always gray, and the server status is always full, which makes players who want to play the game jump in haste. Especially those who hang up due to unexpected situations such as power outages and disconnections.

Players who quit the game were so anxious that they almost used a hammer to hit the culprits who caused them to go offline - the Electricity Bureau and China Telecom.

Lin Feng nodded at this. "Swordsman Love: Loyalty to the Country" is so popular, which is also what he expected. 200,000 players are playing on the same server, a huge map that can accommodate millions of players, and unique upgrades
Chapter completed!
