Reborn multinational giant

Chapter 98 Web Game Platform Full Public Beta

From mid-November when Fang Zhe left Anyang and flew to Yangcheng, to the beginning of December, Fang Zhe and Li Yifei have been looking for web tour projects in Yangcheng and Shenzhen to talk about agents.

During the period Fang Zhe went back to Yanjing again, but Li Wen called and said that the company had received an official internal invitation letter from Apple, inviting them to participate in the excellent R&D business seminar held at Apple's US headquarters in mid-December.

Regarding this invitation letter, the executives of Huizhong were full of surprises. The reason was that after communicating with Apple officials to understand the main content and general situation of the symposium, a group of executives of Huizhong were surprised to find that Huizhong was the company that was invited. , The least well-known one, the other companies on the invitation list are all famous names in the game industry, Sega, EA, Ubisoft, gameloft, Activision Blizzard and so on.

The reason for Apple’s invitation is also very simple. The game "Fruit Games" developed by Huizhong Company has performed well since it was launched on the appstore. In mid-October, the game’s revenue and popularity have increased significantly because of the Halloween version update. So far, it has been ranked first in the appstore bestseller list for more than a month, and it is a veritable star game on the appstore.

And Fang Zhe’s purpose for returning to Yanjing halfway is also related to this. He went back to apply for visas and passports. Yes, his company plans to participate in this forum, and his boss is going to the United States in person. I haven't been to Apple headquarters, let alone. How could Fang Zhe not want to go.

At the end of November, Huizhong's web game platform began a comprehensive technical internal test, and the web game platform was officially announced to the outside world. The platform has a separate name, Zhongle, which is the name Fang Zhe wanted to give the company at the beginning. The platform concept is also The sentence taken from an ancient poem: Lele alone is not as good as others.

Fang Zhe and Li Yifei have signed many contracts in Yangcheng and Shenzhen. Among them, there are two unique games, one is called "Legend of Marfa". Just listen to the name. This is a legendary game. Games, and this type of game has always been enduring. It is known as the evergreen tree of the page game industry. Shanda has made a lot of money from it. Many game companies in China also rely on authorized adaptations. Special profit, before Fang Zhe's rebirth, the popular "Blue Moon" was also a variant of this type of game.

Another unique game is "Dang Bo Tang" on 7th Avenue in Shenzhen City. This is a casual game. It can be said to be unique in the current page game field of slg and rpg games, so I signed this game. Li Yifei still had some objections, but under Fang Zhe's strong persuasion, Huizhong still signed the game.

The reason is simple. In the past, this game has opened the market all over the world. At its peak, there were nearly 7 million daily active users, with a monthly turnover of over 20 million, and its current agency fee is only 800,000.

Cheap, it’s really cheap. In the future, the Seventh Avenue company will develop classic web games including "The Divine Comedy" with a monthly turnover of over 100 million. Now the foundation for cooperation is laid, and future cooperation will be more convenient, even, if possible, Maybe in the future Seventh Avenue will be a research and development company under Huizhong.

"Legend of Marfa" used a single generation fee of 1.5 million, which is basically close to the development cost of this game, but Fang Zhe didn't even blink at it, let alone 1.5 million, it was 15 million. If it is won, it is also a steady profit.

In addition, Huizhong has signed a dozen intermodal games with more than a dozen companies. The agency fees for these intermodal games are relatively cheap. The cheapest one, a common slg game on the market, only paid 50,000. Agency fees.

When Fang Zhe and Li Yifei returned to Yanjing in December, there were only more than 200,000 left for the 5 million that went south to the south. Fortunately, the remittance of Apple’s October share in early December has been settled, and Huizhong has become a rich man. the company.

Thanks to the "Fruit Games" topping the best-selling list in mid-October, throughout October, the total turnover of "Fruit Games" exceeded US$2.4 million, which is equivalent to nearly 17 million yuan. Apart from Apple’s share and tax, Huizhong’s The net income exceeds more than 9 million.

This money has greatly eased Huizhong’s current financial pressure, and at the same time, Fang Zhe has money to start drastically for the upcoming public music page game platform and the sole game "Legend of Mafa", as for another sole generation For the game "Dang Dan Tang", Fang Zhe does not intend to promote it on his own platform. Instead, he intends to take the path of social games and promote it on social networking sites.

At the beginning of December, the entire Huizhong company was very busy, and the web game operation department expanded rapidly. From the original seven or eight people to nearly 30 people now, the total number of people in Huizhong also exceeded the 140-person mark. Fang Zhe When Huizhong went south in early November, Huizhong was only in his early 80s. In just one month, the number has nearly doubled. Naturally, office space and resources are becoming more and more tense. Zheng Siwen renovated the upstairs. The progress is getting tighter and tighter.

On Saturday, December 13, the game platform of Zhongle Games was officially tested. On this day, the technical department and operation department of Huizhong Page Game Platform were fully prepared.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, "Legend of Marfa" officially opened for public beta. There are more than 50 server entries on the entire server list.

At this time, Sun Dahai, who had just gotten up in Dacheng, a coastal city in eastern China, had his face unwashed or brushed. He turned on the computer and clicked "Starting Point" on the navigation page. A few days ago, he had just finished reading the starting point. The book "Beast Blood Boiling" is now starting to become a book freak again, so he wanted to go up to the starting point to see if there were any good new novels.

After clicking the "Starting Point" tab on the navigation page with the mouse, the page did not jump to the starting point website, but instead opened a web page with a large background image of a beautiful lady in magical outfit.

"Fuck, garbage starting point", Sun Dahai cursed bitterly. Every time I open the starting point, the website will jump to a certain game interface. Only by dropping the game interface and re-entering can we enter the real starting point official website.

When I was a little white, I still thought that the starting point was hacked. I didn’t know it until I spent a long time at the starting point. It was basically the starting point "black". All users who entered their website would jump to the game interface first when they clicked. , Wait until the second click to enter the official website, "Made, in order to make money, the conscience is eaten by the dog".

Sun Dahai cursed bitterly. The mouse had moved to the cross at the upper right corner, but at this time, Sun Dahai's eyes saw the beauty wearing a purple silk and satin, with a bumpy chest, a pair of purple armor on her full chest In the cold light, the upper right corner marked her profession as a Taoist priest. Sun Dahai stared at the beautiful woman from top to bottom, with exquisite facial features, tall body, white thighs, purple mesh socks and tall tubes. Boots, Sun Dahai swallowed, he felt that he was already a little bit beastly blood boiling!

Move the mouse from the upper right corner to the selection role in the middle of the screen. Sun Dahai chose the purple beauty Taoist priest without hesitation, and clicked to enter the game, "Mad, I just look at it, it's not fun, I will turn it off immediately!"
