American Fortune Life

One of the best and most sought-after games of the year is undoubtedly Fruit Swordsman, which has been on the leaderboard for a long time as the lead game Andy hopes to promote with his crazy phone, becoming almost a must-have for many crazy phone users.

“Previously, game releases relied on physical media, such as engraving on CDs, which forced game R&D companies to rely on game distributors. Selling games digitally now saves the middle ground, and we can truly maximize our profits, believing that the company's profits will be greater in the future. ”

Andy is quite concerned about the total $80 million in "My World" sales, but the net profit is over $10 million. The key is the cost of CD carriers and the fact that game publishers have to split some of their profits as well, which is a bit frustrating.

Look at Fruit Swordsman. It's only been two months since IOS, Saipan is the number one downloader. Although there are currently just over a million mobile phones sold, almost 90% of mobile phones download the paid Fruit Ninja, a mobile game developed specifically for touchscreens.

Love phones in the IOS system alone have made nearly $3 million in profits for the company in two months, and the other versions are slightly worse. After all, the touchscreen is not mainstream, but it's almost $1 million.

A mobile game as simple as this can make so much profit in just two months, and it's still coming, that other Silicon Valley companies have to focus on it when they see the news.

“Boss, our free version has found advertisers through Miss Emily and can only bring us $10,000 a month in advertising revenue.” Blair looked a little weird, "he said to Andy.

“Oh, Hanhua Free Edition, Advertising + Internal Purchase, which is also an impossible thing, they are all spoiled by free resources, they will not pay to download the purchase game, but the game has to be cut yan, take the market first. ”

Andy is also mentally prepared for this. He doesn't do it for free. There will be all kinds of cracking versions of it on the Sky Dynasty Internet. It would be better to add some advertisements and make some money by getting some in-house props. Although the profit is pathetic, it's always meat. Mosquito meat is meat too. There's nothing I can do about it.

And then the Temple Escape development team showed their work, and after a short run, it worked very well, and Andy was satisfied, at least not worse than the previous edition.

Because the most important 3D gaming engines have been solved, the next development will be going faster and smoother, and The Extreme Ski and Super Monkey Ball are doing just as well.

Unexpectedly, Andy's development of Candy Legend has been completed, and just a month after he proposed the program, he is ready to upload it to the APP Store and start selling it.

Well, although the program, the picture is relatively simple, but the most important thing is that the level design is quite laborious, but the development team of the Candy Legend also has a way, the development team of a total of five people will put out two hours each day to gather together to think about the level, if you think about it, you can join the game and let the elite come up with 100 levels in a month, and this kind of thought collision is still not over, their goal is 1000 levels, very ambitious.

Andy had a beautiful picture in his hand, looking at the colors, the image of the birds in different shapes, and the background images to use in the game, and was very satisfied.

“Nice, it's really good, that's what I want. ”

Chanel Dior's nervousness to take over Angry Birds, a project that stands out from many of the company's competitors, has finally eased. To be honest, the company's project teams are a little afraid of this young boss sitting on the throne with a smile.

After all, his boss is too talented and evil, so much detail about the game plan, as a subordinate, the failure to do it again really means incompetence.

“Boss, if you're satisfied, we'll officially start the project next.” Shanir breathed a dark breath of turbidity and said.

“Yes! Details, every detail needs to be Jing Lean, as the company's main game next year, I can't take over the rough making.

Blair, I think we should also hold a new product launch, invite our paid game users to bring them to the scene, invite journalists to help with the publicity, maybe we can sell tickets or something in the future. ”

When you hear the boss, people smile too. Everyone thinks of Jobs who promotes his mobile phone. The so-called Apple New Products Launch is just because Jobs wants to use his reputation to promote the product, but the results are really good. Thus, many technology companies also look at this promotion model.

“Oh, boss, you are much more attractive than Jobs. After all, these games are very resounding and influential in the market right now, and in addition to introducing new products, the presenter is also the focus of everyone. After all, all the game players are curious about the boss, you are the creative director.

Video games are the ninth art in their own right, boss. You can give your thoughts, souls and personalities to the product, like an artist, so that the game is more than just a pastime, giving them temperature and emotion. ”

Blair was so happy with his current position and life that when he first applied, it would have occurred to him that the company would have grown to this size.

Everyone else in the conference room nodded and made Andy laugh, but his mood was incredibly relaxed. He increasingly liked the feeling of control. Surely, money and power are addictive!

“While hand touring is a newly mined gold mine, there is a real desire to deepen the industry and the funding threshold will increase in the future. I will not draw funds from the company, and I want you to work with me to grow the Mockingjay Gaming Company beyond the size of these giant EA companies. ”

In fact, the game company is on the fast track, so long as the game itself is commercially valuable and attractive, the company's profits can be guaranteed. Andy, the owner himself, has no shortage of money, does not draw blood from the company, and ensures that the gaming company has enough money to develop new products and operations, which will double the market value and become the brightest new star in the gaming industry.

At the end of the meeting, after everyone left, Andy didn't stop much, but took the assistants and bodyguards through the hallway and turned to the other building, the Freedom City Software Application Store.

In case Apple develops its own APP trading platform, all of Andy's previous promotional fees to the store have been smashed out, and the results are quite obvious. From the very beginning, only a few APP apps suitable for the IOS system were added to 500 apps within a week of Apple's release of the App Development Package. Although 90% of the apps are free, Free City APP Store has also established a unique position among users of mobile phones.

Over the next period, after investing in promotional costs, the number of IOS-based software applications surged to 2500, and the store's cumulative downloads exceeded 100 million in the previous few days.

Andy also deliberately asked Michael Wright to lead the company to a celebration party, although he was not there, and a video link greeted all the staff.

“Boss, the first month of app sales has been fully accounted for, no leaks have occurred, and every programmer has been paid.” Michael is reporting to the boss who is looking at the data sheet.

“Well, well done, although a little troublesome, the first month was also the first time to build trust with various developers, we must do the service well, our platform is a service provider, don't do that kind of shoplifter thing, do the service well from the beginning, cover these excellent software developers and individuals, even if Apple develops the platform itself, just as a later player and we compete.

When we were in Freedom City, we focused on service, and Apple controlled the hardware, the software, and the platform, and it was a completely closed circulatory system, which inevitably turned out to be a coma, and Jobs had a really ugly picture, and, heh, with a bunch of vampire directors, I was looking forward to their defaults on Freedom City. ”

Andy had that data sheet in his hand, his head raised, his mouth smiled with a mockery, and his eyes glistened with a sly glow.

“Lord Joe, I have prepared a generous package for you, I hope you don't mess with me! ”
