Zhou Shu smiled slightly, turned the notebook in front of him, clicked on an email with the mouse, and then pushed the screen towards Li Qing again: "See for yourself."
Li Qing looked at the email.
This is an email from the "Legend of Legend" studio owned by Illusion Company.
From its launch in June to December this year, in less than six months, the number of simultaneous online users of "Legend of Blood" has climbed from zero at the beginning to 400,000 now!
Note that this refers to the number of simultaneous online users!
The email mentioned that the number of registered users of "Legend of Hot Blood" has approached tens of millions. As of yesterday, the number of registered users was approximately 8.5 million.
This is an extremely majestic number, an astonishing and amazing number!
It may be difficult for you to understand what 8.5 million means, but what you can understand is that according to statistics, as of November, the number of Internet users in China is only a little bit higher than tens of millions.
In other words, 80% of Internet users across the country have experienced the baptism of "Legend of Hot Blood" in just six months!
This is a terrifying speed of transmission.
This is the highest number of people online for Legend so far.
It is no exaggeration to say that at the moment, three of the four online game players are playing Legend.
And in some Internet cafes in second- and third-tier cities, there are all legendary players.
Nowadays, when many people mention the word online game, they also refer to "Legend of Blood".
"Stone Age", which exploded in popularity in the first half of the year, has now gradually withdrawn from the stage of history. Although "Stone Age" can be seen occasionally in some large Internet cafes, more of it is still the cry of "Legend of Blood".
There is no doubt that "Legend of Hot Blood" was a success!
Before "Legend of Hot Blood", the domestic impression and positioning of online games were still slightly vague.
Before this, including "Stone Age", there were only a handful of well-known online games in China, and they would never exceed double digits.
But last month, this number quickly rose to fifty.
In other words, in just half a year, as the popularity of "Legend of Blood" increased, domestic online games began to explode.
Among them, Huaqing Technology, which has a stake in Li Qing, also quickly sent people to follow suit after seeing the prospects of "Legend of Hot Blood" and went to South Korea to buy the game. Among the fifty new online games, two of them came from
Huaqing Technology.
It can be expected that in the future, online games will appear in larger quantities.
It can be said that it is precisely because of "Legend of Hot Blood" that many investors have been inspired.
It is precisely because of "Legend of Hot Blood" that this market has gradually begun to receive the attention and cultivation of capital.
Of course, capital is profit-seeking, and all sources of attraction come from the money-attracting ability of "Legend of Blood."
"cough!"
When he saw the numbers on the books, Li Qing almost choked on his own saliva.
He looked up at Zhou Shu in surprise: "Is this... a mistake?"
"It's not wrong, it's just that you haven't been paying attention." Zhou Shu smiled and said: "I was also scared at first, but after careful inquiry, I found that this is the truth, without any exaggeration."
Li Qing calmed down and returned his gaze to the screen.
From the time it was launched in June to September, the quarterly report of "Legend of Hot Blood" was still barely profitable. In the first month, due to the initial launch of the product, various benefits and benefits were unscrupulously presented to attract players, so it suffered a loss that month.
Seven hundred thousand.
Fortunately, in the second month, the company turned a profit and "Legend of Blood" made a profit of 300,000 yuan for the first time.
This is already an extremely great number. Even "Stone Age" cannot make a profit in the second month, and it is still as high as 300,000 yuan.
But by the third month, the profit figures had undergone a huge change, and the profit in a single month actually reached two million!
Although the profit of only one million yuan in the entire quarter was not worth mentioning to Li Qing, it greatly stimulated and inspired the entire online game market.
At the same time, it attracted Zhou Shu's attention.
Under Zhou Shu's instructions, Legend Studio also started monthly financial reporting.
So, when the October financial statements came out, everyone couldn't sit still.
"11.6 million..."
Li Qing swallowed, his eyes filled with shock!
Damn it, it’s a money grab!
Even though he had already predicted it, Li Qing still couldn't believe it when he saw this number.
"Sometimes I wonder how you discovered this game."
Zhou Shu glanced at the speechless Li Qing, and while making tea for himself and Li Qing, he said: "You have never been to South Korea, and it seems that you have never played online games, but you are like a prophet, you just know
There is such a game, so you can’t wait to send people to South Korea to negotiate for agents, and then implement a counterattack when everyone is not optimistic..."
"Do you know that your sense of smell is really scary?"
Zhou Shu continued: "After the financial statements were made public in October, hundreds of domestic capitals expressed their concern for this game, and dozens of them began to invest in this circle. Last month, there were already 40
Several online games were launched at the same time, but they all thought it was a fortune. They felt that this industry, like "Stone Age", would only be popular for a while, so the game was very rough and they were ready to make a fortune.
Just leave. They did make a fortune, but compared to our monthly share of 11 million, it is too small. Some people may lose all their investment because of this."
Li Qing came back to his senses and murmured: "They are all short-sighted fools. In a market of one billion people, the big waves wash away the sand. The winner is the one left behind in the end."
After saying this, Li Qing continued to look down.
When November's financial profit figures appeared in front of his eyes, Li Qing felt like he was about to stop breathing.
"Twenty-one million and two million..."
Oh my god!
Li Qing stood up suddenly, his face flushed, and his breathing became rapid: "In November, there are 10 million more than October?"
"Um."
Zhou Shu smiled slightly: "You were filming the MV abroad at the time. I didn't have time to inform you that starting from the end of October, due to various reasons such as publicity, or because of word-of-mouth among users, the number of registered users of "Legend"
There was a huge growth, with nearly five million registered users added in less than fifty days.”
After a pause, she said slowly: "Don't be too happy too early. The profit figures for the first two months of this quarter are indeed exciting, but at the beginning of this month, cheats began to appear frequently in various servers. Now Jia Cunrui's
Bian Zheng is working day and night to fight against these plug-ins, and for this purpose he has also recruited a lot of computer talents from home and abroad on a large scale."
"Plug-in? What kind of plug-in?" Li Qing calmed down and asked.
"You don't seem surprised?" Zhou asked in surprise.
"It's not surprising. There are always cheats in games, especially for such a popular game. It would be a disaster if there were no cheats."
Li Qing forced a smile and said: "Isn't "Stone Age" also full of cheats? It's all the same."
Zhou Shu nodded and said: "That's true. In fact, starting from the beginning of last month, the staff discovered that there were plug-ins in various servers. However, at that time they all thought it was just a simple hang-up and did not pay special attention to it. However,
By the end of last month, attack-accelerating plug-ins began to appear, and by the beginning of this month, smart PK plug-ins had been extended.”
Li Qing rubbed the corners of his eyes and asked with a headache: "What did Jia Cunrui say?"
"Of course it's a full blow."
Zhou Shudao: "In addition, the studio also recruited top computer talents and conducted server tracking on the IP addresses of users who used plug-ins. However, in the end, it was discovered that these plug-in users were just ordinary users. The ones who actually developed plug-ins were
There is someone else."
"Have you called the police?" Li Qing asked.
"The police were called, but the police didn't care."
Zhou Wei said helplessly: "Unless we can catch the hacker group behind the development of the plug-in, they have already achieved huge profits with this plug-in. In the past two years, the country has been stricter on the Internet. Once these people are caught, they will
They will be sentenced. They also understand this, so they hide it very secretly. Even if we conduct fishing and tracking, the ones who appear in the end are always some unsuspecting third parties. The real mastermind behind the scenes is difficult to catch." -
