Game company goes bankrupt? I backhand cyberpunk!

The popularity of Pokémon GO far exceeded Lin Yuan’s imagination, because Lin Yuan ignored the enthusiasm of Chinese people to follow suit, especially when Pokémon GO was first warmed up among college students.

The energetic college students boasted about Pokémon Go. Many college students also gained love from Pokémon Go and posted it on campus confession walls and forums, turning it into stories to share with netizens.

A game that allows young people to make more friends, especially when there are a large group of female players among them, the popularity of this game goes without saying.

What's a boy's favorite game? Is it a thrilling FPS, a turn-based strategy development, a casual farming business, or a MOBA with fair competition?

No, what male college students like most is games with many girls. These young guys with hormonal peaks release endless hormones every day, and they are looking forward to a sweet love for them every day. .

Three years of abstinence in high school and a boring life like being in jail have long made them full of yearning for college. But when they got to college, they discovered that finding a partner is not as simple as they imagined. Naturally, love is what these men are looking for. What college students look forward to most.

And why doesn't this kind of thing happen to working people who are troubled by blind dates?

Pokémon Go's emphasis on social interaction, whether it's gyms, alliances, or trading systems, are all designed to allow players to connect with each other. To put it in exaggerated terms, Pokémon Go provides players with It provides a hundred ways to socialize, allowing players to meet new friends and provide a platform for communication. If players do not socialize, they will play Pokémon Go as a stand-alone game, collect illustrations, cultivate Pokémon, and play by themselves every day.

This is not to say that it is not possible, after all, everyone has their own choice, but it means that if the player really plays Pokémon as a stand-alone game, it means that the player really does not need to socialize, he really only Want to be alone.

Therefore, on the first day that Pokémon Go was launched, its popularity shocked game manufacturers across the country.

With 34 million users online after opening the server, what exactly does Nanxing want to do?

Although it is a mobile game, it also has a very popular buff that has just been launched, and it has also been made into a mode that is popular with social young people. It also has the noble super IP bonus of Pokémon. Under the superposition of these factors, various Everyone knows it when the game happens, and it’s not too much to say that Pokémon has an explosive server launch.

If it doesn't explode, that would be too much.

But, but!

Is 34 million online users a bit too exaggerated?

You must know that Overwatch's current users all over the world have not yet exceeded 10 million daily online users. The daily active users have exceeded 15 million, but the daily online users are still far behind!

And what about Pokémon Go? It has reached 34 million since its launch. What is the concept?

This is not the number of daily active online users!

It’s the number of online sessions for that period! During the highest period, 34 million users were online at the same time, which means that most of the young Chinese people are playing this game!

Pokémon Go has completely taken over the mobile game market on the market!

Although players who play mobile games will not just play one game. For those who like to play mobile games, how can they only have one game on their mobile phones? It has to be three models to start with, right?

And this also means that as long as 10% of the players are willing to pay for Elf Stardust, then Nanxing's daily revenue exceeding 100 million will be as easy as drinking water!

At the same time, this unimaginable number of daily online users has also caused many cities to experience unprecedented events.

In the bureau in Beijing, Luo Fusheng was holding a thermos cup and looking out the window from the car. He saw a group of young people with sunny smiles on the street. They were walking in groups on the street and picked up from time to time. Take a photo with your phone and then look around again.

Seeing this scene, Luo Fusheng felt a little funny.

Pokémon Go will bring huge economic benefits. We are willing to build Pokémon Malls and Pokémon Parks. Nanxing will increase the GDP of many cities in the future. Please believe us.

Recalling the words of Nan Xing's young and outrageous chief planner, Luo Fusheng felt that the young man was respectable.

Is it really possible for Nanxing to increase the GDP of multiple cities with one person?

But looking at the scene before him, Luo Fusheng was willing to believe it.

Moreover, many people in the country's management are willing to believe in Nanxing.

After all, Nanxing is not like some Internet companies that are stationed in China but have their butts abroad. It is hard to say whether they pay taxes cleanly. How do you expect them to be patriotic?

But Nanxing is different. Although it has not been able to increase the GDP of many cities, at present, Nanxing has improved the GDP of Los Angeles, created many jobs, and is also a major local tax payer in Los Angeles. .

No wonder Los Angeles supports Nan Xing so much.

Thinking of this, a chuckle appeared on Luo Fusheng's face.

Let's go and check out the location of Nanxing. They have agreed to build a children's park here and provide amusement facilities.

Okay, Luo Bureau.

——————

If Pokémon players in the capital city roam the streets, then most of the Pokémon players in the Magic City are on the Bund.

After all, there are many places in the capital that cannot be entered, and there are many seemingly good places, but they are all places that cannot be set to refresh Pokémon.

As for the Bund of the Magic City, although there are many people here during the day, people come and go and do not stay here. But now, the Bund of the Magic City is full of people, and everyone is looking around with their mobile phones. Looking for the elves that will be refreshed on your map.

In order to avoid the situation where players in densely populated cities may not be able to capture Pokémon due to the excessive number of Chinese users, Lin Yuan made a small but thoughtful design for the Pokémon Go capture system.

That is, except for rare elves and some high-level elves, many basic ordinary elves refresh points will be refreshed every once in a while, but after refreshing the elves at the refresh point, you don’t have to worry about not being able to catch them too late. Because within the refresh time, the elves at the capture point are unlimited, that is, every player can capture them.

There are too many Chinese people. At Shuimu High School alone, Lin Shushu called Lin Yuan more than once and told Lin Yuan to watch the elves refresh every day, but they still couldn't catch them. She complained about how bad the experience was. .

Also, if there are too many players, if we still follow the mode where the elves disappear as soon as they are caught, then what are most players going to play?

Therefore, because of the lessons learned from the university, Lin Yuan specially set up a program when he was in the public toilet, that is, in first-tier cities, six types of elves will be refreshed on the map, with a large number of refresh points, each district. There are several refresh points, and the refreshed elves are unlimited.

Note that the types of refreshed elves are limited, not that the refresh points of the elves are limited.

If there were restrictions on refresh points, it would be a waste of time. Do you really think Pokémon Go players can run from the north to the south of the city to find refresh points?

If you do that, the game will go out of business in a week.

There are four types of elves in second-tier cities, two types of elves in third-tier cities, and only one type in counties and villages.

This design looks very bad at first glance, causing players in different regions to have differences in the number of elves. But if you think about it carefully, cities with small populations do not have as many players as big cities, such as some third-tier cities. The maximum number of players is around a few hundred thousand, but cities like Magic City and Pengcheng must have millions of users, right?

Therefore, in cities where there are not that many players, players will have more opportunities to catch high-level elves and rare elves, which is a disguised form of compensation.

On the third day after Pokémon Go was launched, the revenue exceeded 400 million. After all, the number of users continues to grow. The number of daily online users has declined, but it still remains at 30 million online.

On the third day, a problem that Lin Yuan was worried about emerged, that is, signs of Pokémon Go transactions began to emerge.

And because Pokémon Go requires face-to-face transactions offline, Lin Yuan is very worried that there will be some violent incidents, students, gangsters, and even gangs. If these things cause social panic, then Nanxing Need to take some responsibility.

It sounds excessive. It was obviously not Nan Xing who caused the harm, but Nan Xing is responsible, but this is the reality.

If it really has a big impact, it is possible that Pokémon Go will be forced to be removed from the shelves by then.

Therefore, Lin Yuan needs a trading elf that can withstand players going offline to meet strangers.

After all, the prices of some elves are very precious. With wealth, it is inevitable that some people will become hot-headed.

For example, the most precious Pokémon in Pokémon right now is Pikachu.

Among the tens of millions of players in the country, only 7,000 players own Pikachu. After Nanxing changed Pikachu's refresh settings, Pikachu will now appear randomly in the grass or in some communities.

Because the server has just been launched, even though Nanxing has increased the refresh probability of Pikachu, only a few players still have Pikachu. Although there will be more Pikachu as the game gets later, but at the moment, the number of Pikachu is very small, and Bao There is no shortage of rich players in Kamuo Go. As a result, the current market price of Pikachu is 8,000.

You know, this is just virtual data, and Pikachu is not very good at fighting. The three small ones of Water, Fire and Grass are trained, and their combat power is not inferior to that of Pikachu, but it is because of its cuteness, rarity, and Pokémon animation. The card bonus gives this yellow-skinned mouse a distinguished value.

Eight thousand When Lin Yuan and Feng Shuyun were poor, eight thousand was enough for the two of them for three to four months.

But right now, one Pikachu costs 8,000.

Not to mention that 8,000 is just the lowest price, but now some people are even selling Pikachu to 20,000.

Is 20,000 yuan enough for someone to take the risk?

Therefore, Lin Yuan and Li Lin are currently working together to create an auxiliary software for Pokémon Go.

It’s the fifth day since Pokémon Go was launched, and the Pokémon Go bar is already full of transaction posts.

And each post also comes with prerequisites.

Such as - [Pengcheng] offline trading of rare marsupial dragons, add if needed!

Such posts almost fill up the Pokémon Go forum.

Players are also worried that there will be problems with transactions, so offline transactions are conducted in crowded places. Some people even ask to trade in front of the police station.

This situation has also caused some players to complain about Nanxing, thinking that in order to increase the sense of reality, Nanxing's mandatory offline trading wizard settings are really annoying.

This setting is really dangerous!

Regarding this, Nan Xing remained silent.

On the seventh day after Pokémon GO was released, there was a screenshot added to the login interface of Pokémon GO. On the picture of that frame, there was a huge Pokeball Stadium on top, and under the Pokéball was the banner of the venue—— Elf Trading Center.

Six words directly describe the settings of the new function.

When players open it, they will see a series of requirements.

Requirements are as follows--

Players can place Poké Balls on the trading center, and buyers can search for terms such as [Grass Elf] [Fire Elf] [Flying/Dragon/xx], etc. to filter. After finding the elf ball, the buyer can check the elf attributes and then make the purchase. Nanxing will charge a 0.1% handling fee [maintenance/operation]

Note: Nanxing will not intervene in the player's trading market and will never control the elf market. However, it will collect statistics on all the elf's transaction data and calculate the most appropriate average price for players' reference to avoid elf merchants from maliciously raising the market. price.

Once the transaction is successful, there is no way to take it back.

Friendly reminder from Nanxing, in order to avoid offline transaction disputes, elves who are traded face-to-face offline will have the elves locked. The locked elves cannot conduct secondary transactions, so if they are not the elves you are sure to give to a friend, please do not conduct offline transactions.

Be cautious when trading elves, and pay attention when purchasing elves! Friendly reminder from Nanxing, unless it’s a city you can’t go to, try to capture it yourself!

Nan Xing cherishes the reminder! Regional leagues will be provided in the future, and point rewards can be exchanged for rare elves!

A dense row of rules came down.

If you read the whole article, you will find that although Nanxing has built an elf trading center, Nanxing does not support players buying elves on a large scale.

But obviously, Nanxing also knows that because the elves in the north and south regions may be different in various places, the result is that players in some places can only catch their own local elves. If they want other elves, they can only Go and refresh the city accordingly.

Although rare elves are refreshed randomly and have no fixed time, it is precisely because of this that rare elves are precious. The refresh place and refresh time are all random. The result is that there will be very few players who own them.

Therefore, the emergence of the league is to provide players with rare elves that they can own.

Nanxing, I’m really worried about the players!

As for the 0.1 handling fee, well, it is really very small, not even 1%. This is beyond the imagination of all players. You must know that on the current official trading platforms, some even dare to ask for 5%. Handling fee, so Nanxing’s 0.1 handling fee can be said to be really for the maintenance and operation of the software.

Nanxing's heart also made many players feel comfortable.

Nanxing is really thinking about them!

Nan Xing really didn’t want to make money from their pockets!

On that day, many players uploaded their own elves. According to the data reference provided by Nanxing, players in southern cities put the unique basic elves refreshed in their cities on the market. The prices were basically around a few yuan, and they were all in Three or four dollars.

The cute ones can be sold more expensively, but not more than ten yuan.

In a dense row, northern players bought southern players, and then uploaded the northern refresh elves for southern players to buy. There is no difference in price.

Hmm. It looks like switching from left hand to right hand, but the Poke Ball is consumed.

In Pokémon Go, there are two ways to obtain Poke Balls: purchasing and exploring. Poke Balls will be randomly refreshed on the map. Players can look for them every day. If they don’t want to leave, they can buy them directly.

Buying 20 balls for 6 yuan shouldn't be expensive?

In short, this wave of operations by Nanxing not only avoids possible surprises in offline transactions for players, but also allows players to complete transactions in distant places and obtain elves that cannot be obtained in their own region.

There is a feeling that when the players make money, Nanxing also makes money.

What is a win-win situation?

Some people always say that a win-win situation means that I alone win twice, but in the game circle, if the manufacturer wins twice, will the players follow your game?

Therefore, a win-win situation is when the players feel they have made a profit and the manufacturer also makes a profit. This is a win-win situation!
