Rebirth 2010: I taught Mr. Lei how to make a mobile phone

Chapter 286: Awakening of Nations
middle East.

The prince and his friends gathered together, and the topic of their conversation was the "Ancient War" which would be launched in two days.

"Is there any news from the recharge channel?"

"Bia'an Technology and the publisher have opened a dedicated custom recharge function, which allows users to manually enter the amount."

"Yeah, that's good. This way we don't have to go through as much trouble as during the public beta test."

"Are there any other deployments needed? For example, buying off some players in other regions to serve as insiders?"

"No, in front of money, all conspiracies and tricks are meaningless. I want to let players all over the world know that whoever has more money is the boss in this game."

Korea.

Ancient Wars is the largest alliance in Korea. When several managers were discussing the mid-term development trend,
"President, who are we going to ally with then?"

"Don't be in a hurry. Let's wait and see how both sides move. We can take advantage of the situation and watch the fight from the mountain!"

North America, Europe, South America, Russia, and Southeast Asia are also carrying out corresponding mobilizations, preparing to welcome the arrival of the Awakening of Nations.

But this does not include Japan.

Because of the post "Ancient Wars Prohibited, Beware of Cultural Invasion" that appeared locally, it caused heated discussion among Japanese players.

It analyzes the power comparison and previous grievances between the two sides, and concludes that the other side wants to destroy the spirit of the Yamato nation through the game, which is a naked cultural invasion.

We call on all players not to play any games produced by Bi'an Technology.

Time is like the morning urine of a middle-aged man, it will eventually run out.
March 3, Ancient War
All nations, awaken!
After half a year of polishing by the Xuanwu Studio of Bian'an Technology, the balance of "Ancient War" has become very mature.

Afterwards, overseas players were given two months to familiarize themselves with each server, which was also the time for Xuanwu Studio to optimize and iterate the game.

The characteristics of the various global forces vary, but after calculations and actual testing by numerical experts, the differences are negligible.

The global server of Rise of Kingdoms does not start fighting right away. There is a 2-week development period. There will be a protective shield at the border of each regional force to allow players from all regions to develop on their own. It is equivalent to an arms race.

When the protective shield disappears on March 3, it will be the time for all the major powers to show their true colors. When the borders of the various powers invade each other, will it be a fight? No, it's all about money!

Even with all the preparations, the server reached full capacity just one hour after the launch of Rise of Kingdoms, and people from various regions began to queue up.

Judging from the global data statistics of Ancient War, the number of people in other regions and servers has dropped sharply, and all have gone to the global server.

玩家地区分布数据分析，华夏100万、北美50万、中东10万、东南亚、120万、欧洲80万，日韩10万。

In the Rise of Kingdoms server, there are 390 million players worldwide, with 200 million online at full capacity, resulting in a large number of queues.

This grand scene even surpassed the one after the public beta of World of Warcraft a few years ago.

Players queuing in game forums in various regions are complaining that after so much time preparing, the servers are still so rubbish.

This made the major game publishers that Bian Technology cooperated with around the world feel uneasy. Even though they had repeatedly overestimated how popular the game would be after its launch, they did not expect people to be so crazy.

It just so happened that the number of people in other servers of Ancient War had decreased, so they had to rob Peter to repair Paul, and urgently expanded the server capacity and purchased another batch of servers.

They are racing against time because it's all about money!
The revenue in just one day is equivalent to 10 days for other normal servers.

You have to know that this is only the first day, and nearly half of the players are still queuing outside and haven’t come in.

Take the Middle East as an example. Although there are few people, you don’t have to queue. There are only about 10 people online, but the base of rich people is huge.

One-tenth of the players spend an average of 100 yuan on in-game purchases, which translates to millions of dollars in revenue a day.

It normally takes a week for a normal player to evolve from primitive civilization to the next Stone Age civilization without spending any money, but now it can be done in one day.

This is the result of the civilization in the game being sealed. Otherwise, without this seal, it is estimated that some big guys would have built an interstellar battleship in one day.
The next day, Bian Technology and its publishers were busy issuing announcements, apologizing, and expanding capacity.

Outside the house, Sun Ziwei was busy leading the team, while inside the house, Chen Mo was counting money.

Of course, the money has not been received yet. According to the normal process, the money recharged by the players will be transferred to the account of the game publisher. After the publisher receives the money, it will send a message to the other side that the money has arrived and gold (the recharge currency in the game) can be issued. Both parties will keep financial records to facilitate the final reconciliation, and then make a profit settlement at the end of the month.

But this did not prevent Chen Mo from settling the score.

中东429万、华夏282万、北美221万、东南亚127万、欧洲283、日韩89万。

Add up to 1431 million US dollars, equivalent to 9043 million RMB.

Nearly 1 million in one day!
Of course, this does not include the profit sharing. Except for the Chinese server, other regions need to give profit sharing to the publisher. According to the previous gambling agreement, an average of 5% to 6% needs to be given to the other party.

After the division, there is not that much left, only about 5 million, um, a day!
You should know that this is just a server of one of the mobile games under Bi'an Technology, although this server is very large~
Combined with the revenue of Bi'an's other mobile games at home and abroad, it is not a big problem for Bi'an to have a daily revenue of over 100 million yuan.

Of course, it can’t be compared with China Mobile, which earns hundreds of millions a day, but Chen Mo is already very satisfied.

However, he discovered a problem. There were so many players in the Chinese server, but the recharges were not as much as those in the Middle East. The population difference was so huge, which was unscientific.

Afterwards, Chen Mo went to Sun Ziwei and checked with Xuanwu Studio. It turned out that there was no problem. In the Middle East, the strong are always strong, and there is a serious polarization. Domestic players are mainly steady and cautious, focusing on a common prosperity and all people are soldiers.

Previously, the company's monthly revenue was just over 20 billion, and with the stimulus from this global service, it should not be a problem to break the 30 billion mark.

The other side is different now than it was before. A few people could feed the whole family, but now, all you can see are money-eating beasts.

Not to mention chips, with Xiaomi's joint sharing, the annual cost is at least 10 billion.

Now there is a new member, cloud computing, with a minimum annual revenue of 20 billion.

Chen Mo also asked Xu Chaojun to recruit a team of algorithm experts to develop an intelligent recommendation algorithm.

WeChat currently has a massive amount of user data and information. Through big data and intelligent recommendation algorithms, such as subsequent push of content, articles, advertisements and other data of interest, this also requires an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Other miscellaneous products such as Bi'an Mobile Assistant, WeChat, etc., if you add them all up, they are all priceless "money-losing products" at the moment.

In fact, he has two big plans that require more funds, and chips are just one of them.

Chen Mo turned over the page marked with SpaceX in the notebook in his hand. The next page was the key development route of WeChat that was previously recorded.

According to previous plans, each business was not developed independently, but was linked together by Chen Mo.

For example, after communicating with Zhang Xiaolong and Chen Tong, he decided to bring in self-media users into WeChat official accounts and cooperate with Sina Weibo and Baidu to provide content sharing and search services.

WeChat users obtain content, self-media users obtain revenue, Sina Weibo and Baidu gain an additional traffic entrance, and it is a win-win situation for all parties.

Especially since Bi'an has offended the two Ma brothers one after another, Chen Mo has to pull in a few allies to form alliances.

The WeChat mini-program open platform aims to create an ecological closed loop similar to the Apple Store, in which cloud computing will also play a complementary role.

In addition to the existing projects such as scan, QR code, and technology iteration.

WeChat is now like an advanced RTS game, developing on multiple fronts and making progress in parallel.

At present, the size of the entire WeChat team is about 400 people, including the 200 old members of Guangyan and new members after expansion, which is fully capable of handling such a work arrangement.

Especially Zhang Xiaolong strictly follows the project process of the other side, does things in advance, prepares fully, and thinks clearly before taking action. Although the cycle of each project is a bit longer, about half a year, steady and solid progress is the result that Chen Mo wants!
After looking at the performance of the legitimate son, Chen Mo looked at the data of the illegitimate son.

Yesterday was not only the opening date of the global server for "Ancient War" Rise of Nations, but also the day of the public beta of "The Legend of Jianghu" by Wanxie Technology.

In fact, Chen Mo had thought about it before, whether to stagger the public beta dates of the two games. Later he thought that the game types are different and the styles are also different.

In order to be rigorous and avoid assumptions, Chen Mo asked the technical staff to check the overlap of user groups between the two. It was only 20%, so it didn't matter.

Martial arts card-drawing mobile games still have a large player base, and all thirty servers were full on the first day.

On the first day of public beta, the number of users exceeded 10, the proportion of paying users exceeded 10%, and the daily revenue exceeded one million.

On the first day, you will receive SSR Linghu Chong, on the second day, you will receive the unique Dugu Nine Swords, and on the third day, you will receive the bound knight SR Tian Boguang. The original price was 1880 Yuanbao (crossed out), but now the first deposit only requires 6 Yuan, which is still very attractive.

Two players came online, Chen Tong attacked, leading the navy on the other side to set the pace.

The main idea is to export culture overseas, that we have an obligation to do national justice, that the greatest heroes serve the country and the people, that the products of the other shore must be high-quality, that the other shore is the leader of mobile games, etc. They even translate foreign reports after polishing them through journalism and repost them on Weibo and major forums.
Chen Tong was only responsible for lighting the fire, and there was no need to fan it. Netizens sensibly cooperated spontaneously to form public opinion.

As a result, after the report that was basically in line with the facts was spread by a large number of netizens, it became more and more mysterious, and even a report said that Bi'an was the eternal god of Chinese mobile games. Chen Mo was shocked when he saw it. Only a mage could bear this title, and Bi'an was not blessed enough to bear it for the time being.

Later, he rarely spoke out on Weibo, "Thank you for the recognition of the majority of players. The Other Shore just wants to provide players with fun games, just like the slogan of the Other Shore game says, to create happiness with heart.

In fact, I really hope that our partners can develop together. After all, a single flower does not make spring, but a hundred flowers in full bloom make the garden full of spring.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chun Manyuan arrived. Perhaps it was because it could not stand the monopoly of one company in the other side, or perhaps it was coveting the huge profit pie of mobile games.

Tencent and Alibaba jumped out one after another to promote the event. The former announced that it would hold the UP3 Tencent Games Annual Conference in Beijing on March 21, and even released an official poster to warm up the event.

The latter is also unwilling to be left out and announced its entry into the mobile game field, and will bring new works to meet the players in the second half of the year.

Many netizens who were watching the fun began to add fuel to the fire, "Oh my god, Tencent's flying dragon hits the face, how can the other side defend against this wave?"

"Eh? Didn't Mr. Ma say he looked down on those who make games? How could he go back on his word?"

"How dare you, Mr. Ma, to question me so casually!"

Being able to snatch food from the other side's mouth is also their ability. Chen Mo has always welcomed such healthy competition and market selection. Players use their own actions to show whether the game is good or bad.

Chen Mo might be a little apprehensive about three horses in one stable, but the power of two horses, especially in mobile games, is simply not enough.

Chen Mo, who has been a thief for a thousand days and never guards against thieves, went straight to find Li Jianchao.

"Brother Chao, there is another important mission coming up and I need you to come. I am worried about the others."
