Rebirth of the Cyber ​​Hegemony

"I'll go, so I have to go and see?"

If we say that everyone's impression of 5173 is just a virtual equipment transaction.

But gradually, after a large number of game guides appeared, 5173 has attracted more and more attention.

Especially the treasure-hunting strategy in it has attracted many players.

Of course, it doesn't stop there.

After Wang Chang's latest revision of 5173, the newly added game area and the second-level game page have become a gathering place for many players.

Here is the game walkthrough.

You can upload game pictures and videos here.

There are also gaming forums here.

Here you can express your experience in fighting monsters and making gold, and you can also chat with everyone for entertainment.

From the original virtual equipment trading here, from the original just looking at game guides, it has become a game community...

However, although the prospects are gratifying, the funds these days have been spent like running water.

The original 25 for selling equipment bottomed out in a blink of an eye.

Don't think that it only cost 25.

No, these days Chen Yu not only spent 25 on selling equipment, but also spent all of Chen Yu's previous deposits, including the daily profit generated by the website's virtual equipment transactions.

Calculated in this way, Chen Yu spent 50 on the content these days alone.

But now, Chen Yu didn't have much money.

"Brother Jian, how about 17173?"

"There hasn't been much movement on 17173 recently, and their IP streams and PV visits have dropped significantly."

"good."

Chen Yu nodded.

17173 is not the 17173 of later generations.

Now they are just an ordinary website.

Facing 5173's crazy content bombardment these days, the little advantage that 17173 had established before has disappeared.

However, exterminating 17173 is not Chen Yu's ultimate goal.

If you can't live long after killing 17173, then killing 17173 is useless.

"Brother Jian, contact the major game companies, we have to launch an advertising business."

The transaction costs of 5173 virtual equipment alone are far from enough to support the operation of the website.

If he wanted to truly build 5173 into a game portal, he had to launch his main business—advertising.

Correct.

Any portal, their main business is advertising.

It's just that like Xinlang and Sohu, they are aimed at everyone in the country, while 5173 is aimed at gamers.

"Advertising business, how about this?"

"It's actually simple, that is, we advertise these game companies."

"I understand this, the main thing is how much is the advertising cost?"

"Try the water first."

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Yu said, "100 million a month."

"100?"

Zhang Jianming almost fell down: "I'm going, this is too much, and it's still a month."

"Not too much."

Chen Yu shook his head: "You look like a legend. Now tens of thousands of people are online at the same time. Victory Daguang's monthly game revenue is tens of millions, and it may exceed 10 million in the future. Let's take his 100 million advertising expenses and pay him off. not much."

What's more, during this period of time, Chen Yu spent more than 50 yuan on content alone.

If he didn't earn back from these game manufacturers, Chen Yu would cry to death.

It's just a pity that after Zhang Jianming contacted the major game manufacturers, the effect was not ideal at all.

Legend directly refused to cooperate.

As for some other game manufacturers, they are willing to cooperate, but they are only willing to pay tens of thousands of dollars for advertising.

"How many tens of thousands?"

"I'll go, what do these game companies think?"

"Are these game companies so blind?"

Chen Yu was a little anxious.

However, he soon calmed down.

It's not that these game companies have no vision, but that 5173 is not the 17173 of later generations.

The current 5173 has not really made him famous, nor can it be regarded as a real game portal.

Now the main advertising positions of many game manufacturers are not websites, but Internet cafes.

They would rather spend 100 million to hit Internet cafes all over the country than spend 100 million to advertise on the website.

After thinking this through, Chen Yu heaved a sigh of relief.

"Brother Jian, contact them again. No, don't contact Shengda, contact Netease."

"NetEase is only willing to pay 10 RMB for advertising at most."

"I know, just tell them, I will promote them first, and the fee will be charged according to the promotion effect."

"Hey, this is a good idea, I think NetEase will be very happy."

Zhang Jianming also nodded.

First, if you directly ask people for 100 million, it will be strange if they are willing.

On the contrary, they promote first and then charge, and these game manufacturers are more interested.

Chapter 65: Promotion Program

"Netease agreed."

"it is good."

Chen Yu nodded: "From now on, we will start the promotion of Westward Journey."

Netease first started as an email and portal.

As one of the three major portals, NetEase has done well in recent years and even went public in the United States.

It was just an Internet bubble, but it caused heavy losses to major Internet companies.

The worst loss is the Internet advertising business.

At this time, Netease urgently needs to open up another battlefield.

For this reason, Netease turned its attention to online games at this time, and launched its first game, Journey to the West.

It's just a pity that Westward Journey is not as popular as Legend.

Since its launch, Westward Journey's highest peak has only exceeded 1 people online at the same time.

Now, there are only a few thousand people.

There are even rumors that NetEase executives are preparing to redo Westward Journey.

However, now is an opportunity for Chen Yu.

Although Westward Journey 1 is not as good as the later Westward Journey 2, it is actually not that bad.

The reason why the popularity is not high, in addition to a lot of BUG, ​​more is the lack of publicity and promotion.

Besides, if you really want to talk about the game, is the legend really so fun?

No.

There is no best game in this world.

But with more people playing, this game becomes more fun even if it is not fun.

Therefore, this is also consistent with Chen Yu's promotion - to increase the number of Westward Journey players who are online at the same time.

"Still writing soft articles?"

"Correct."

"We're good at this, I'll collect more strategies on Journey to the West."

"No."

Chen Yu shook his head: "We are trying to attract new players, and these strategies are useless to new players."

"Then what should we do?"

"We're doing a wave of beauties."

"Beauty plan?"

Zhang Jianming shook his head to express his understanding.

"Hehe, this one is also simple. You can contact NetEase and say that you are going to make a list of beautiful women in Journey to the West."

"Hey, this is good."

Zhang Jianming's eyes lit up.

Although I didn't know what the beauty plan meant just now, Zhang Jianming knew that it was absolutely extremely attractive to game players as soon as the words "beauty ranking" came out.

"Okay, I'll do it right now."

As the saying goes.

What is the game that most attracts players?

In addition to the game itself, the other is the beauty.

In the previous life, I didn't know how many games became popular because of beauties.

It can be said that wherever there are beautiful women, any place will be popular.

Because Westward Journey is turn-based, it is naturally suitable for beautiful players.

Therefore, Chen Yu's first plan was the beauty plan.

Feedback from NetEase was quick.

After Zhang Jianming talked about the beauty plan with the Journey to the West project department, they issued an announcement in the game.

[From now on, all female players can participate in the Westward Journey Beauty Ranking, and the top ten players will be rewarded with 1000 RMB and won the title of Top Ten Beauties in Westward Journey. 】

1000 yuan is not much.

The key title of the top ten beauties, this is really fatal.

Which beauty does not love beauty?

Which beauty is not vain.

Bearing the title of one of the top ten beauties is definitely more exciting than driving a Ferrari.

"Beauty ranking, wow, I have to participate."

"As a beauty, my wife also participates."

"Oh, return the leaderboard, I'm so shy to say it, but let's participate."

One by one game photos + ID card verification methods were continuously sent to the 5173 forum.
