Reborn in 2011, 985 missing from two copies

Three months to go!

No, it’s ten months!

The future is mobile. "Candy Crush Saga" was only launched on mobile in November in its previous life. "Happy Fun" has now been launched, ten months ahead and has a huge advantage.

With more perfect product capabilities and terrifying level updates, it will not be a problem to beat "Candy Crush Saga".

"Ten billions of annual revenues are mine!"

A small game, but it has a revenue of tens of billions a year!

Wang Yi would never let go of this big piece of fat.

The first thing he has to do is to kill "Candy Crush Saga" and at the same time, kill all potential competitors.

This kind of game is easy to develop, but also very difficult to develop.

Easy, naturally the game design is simple, the threshold is low, and it is easy to follow the trend.

The difficulty is that this type of game needs to update a large number of new levels every week, and the difficulty, balance, gold level, etc. of the updated new levels must be well controlled!

This is a technology that is alive and well. One mistake may ruin the future.

This requires a stable development team and persistent innovation capabilities.

As for copying? It’s hard to copy!

After all, it is easy to copy the beginning, and it is also easy to copy a hundred levels, but what about five hundred levels, one thousand levels, five thousand levels, and ten thousand levels?

I can’t even copy it!

Candy Crush ("Candy Crush") in the previous life has been updated to more than 15,000 levels...

It is precisely for this reason that there have been many match-3 games in the past, but the ones that have done well and have been profitable for more than ten years are "Candy Crush Saga" and "Happy Match"!

Other products such as "Bingo Xiaoxiao Le" and "Seaside Xiaoxiao Le" were short-lived and went out of business soon.

Wang Yi has made a calculation. As long as "Candy Crush Saga" is defeated, "Happy Match" will have few competitors.

Wang Yi compiled these ideas into an email and sent it to Fang Zhiyuan, the person in charge of the "Happy Xiaoxiaole" project, asking him to make specific plans.

Then I looked at the revenue of "Defend Grapefruit" and found that the global monthly revenue was only about 300 million.

Compared with the monthly revenue of "Happy Xiaoxiaole" of more than 1 billion, it is far behind, but it is still outstanding.

This kind of small game can be considered very successful with annual revenue of 2 to 3 billion. After all, the development cost is extremely low.

Of course, in the later period, the number of users of Changchao will increase dramatically, reaching hundreds of millions, and the number of users and revenue of "Defend Pomelo" will also increase.

Chat + mini-games will also be the new cash cows!

The next day, the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Yi and his parents returned to their hometown to pay New Year greetings.

There was no collective heating in the countryside, so the three old people had agreed to come live in the county town.

But it's a pity that the old man is used to being free in the village. When he goes out, he meets acquaintances, walks around and plays chess, which makes him very happy.

When I came to the county town and moved into a building, I didn't know many people, which made me feel aggrieved.

As a result, I only stayed for half a month and had to return to the village.

Wang Qingzhi and his wife tried every means to persuade them to stay, but after finally staying for another half month, they could no longer stay.

In this regard, Wang Qingzhi and his wife were helpless and could not stop them.

We can only send the old man back to the village and install air conditioning to prevent him from freezing.

Wang Yi couldn't say anything about this.

Not everyone likes the tall buildings in the city.

On the contrary, if you open the windows in the village to look at the mountains and look out into the courtyard, life will be more comfortable and the air will be fresher.

Listening to his parents' words, Wang Yi smiled: "I'm afraid that if you turn on the air conditioner, the old man won't bear the electricity bill, so he won't turn it on even if he can!"

"Yes, that's a problem. They are used to saving." Wang Qingzhi nodded: "I bought two tons of charcoal for your grandparents and grandma's family. I couldn't bear to turn on the air conditioner, so I burned charcoal."

"What if you don't want to burn charcoal?" Wang Yixiao said with a smile.

Wang Qingzhi was silent: "..."

Wang Shulin also sighed repeatedly: "..."

Now the family is not short of money, but the old man is used to saving.

People who came from that era experienced years of not having enough to eat and being extremely poor, and most of them were very frugal.

"What should we do?" Wang Qingzhi was a little confused.

Wang Yi thought for a while: "It's easy to say, I'll let people use photovoltaic power generation and use solar energy to generate electricity, and I won't have to pay the electricity bill in the future. That's fine."

"It's a good idea, but it's not cheap, right? How long will it take to pay back the cost?" Wang Qingzhi couldn't help but said, "It's probably more expensive than electricity."

Photovoltaic prices in 2012 were still very expensive.

But there are some things that can't be helped, and they are reluctant to let the elderly use electricity.

Only with free photovoltaic power generation and no electricity costs would they be willing to turn on the air conditioner every day.

And the equipment money is not a problem at all for Wang Yi.

He simply said: "It's okay. The elderly have few appliances and use little electricity. They can't use many photovoltaic panels."

An ordinary family of three consumes about 2000-3000 kilowatt hours of electricity a year.

The elderly in the village have few appliances and cannot use even 50 kilowatt hours of electricity a month.

In other words, the air conditioner is used more often in winter and summer, and the electricity consumption is 200 kilowatt hours per month. The safe point is calculated based on 300 kilowatt hours of electricity.

With an average of 10 kilowatt hours of electricity a day and Jeju’s average 6 hours of sunshine, 2 kilowatt hours of electricity per hour is enough.

Therefore, only 2KW of photovoltaics are needed to generate an average of 12 kilowatt hours of electricity per day, which is more than 4000 kilowatt hours of electricity a year, which two elderly people cannot use at all!

As for the cost, if you go off-grid, you have to purchase energy storage batteries, which have to be replaced every few years. This is a hassle and the cost is high. It is better to directly choose to connect to the grid.

After being connected to the grid, any unused electricity can be directly purchased by the grid.

More than ten years later, photovoltaic power generation will be saturated, and the purchase price of the power grid has become very pessimistic, and may drop to 40 cents, or even 30 cents.

Calculated based on 4 cents per degree, the payback period is relatively long, taking about ten years.

However, Wang Yi remembers that in recent years, the country has vigorously supported the photovoltaic industry, with subsidies and high prices, and the payback period is shorter, about seven or eight years.

It doesn’t matter if it takes tens of thousands of investment to get the money back in ten or eight years.

The main reason is that it can make the elderly reluctant to use electricity!

After arriving at his grandfather's house, Wang Yi paid New Year greetings to the old man and gave him two big red envelopes: "Grandpa, grandma, happy New Year!"

The second elder smiled from ear to ear: "Xiaoyi, it would be great if you came to pay New Year greetings, why don't you give me a red envelope!"

"A little thought." Wang Yixiao said.

After chatting with the two elders for a while, Wang Yi walked to the altar table in the back room and lit incense sticks.

In my hometown, it is customary to have a family dinner during the Chinese New Year.

At this time, a figure walked in carrying a gift box. It was Zhao Huan, the manager of Shanghai Pudong Development Bank!

"Grandpa, grandma, have a happy New Year!" Zhao Huan walked in carrying large and small bags.

"Happy New Year, Manager Zhao. It's true that you brought so many things." The old man said with a smile.

Zhao Huan chuckled: "They are all bank gifts, given to big customers. Director Wang is our big customer. He doesn't need them, so I just give them to you. There are also coupons for experience, and we will arrange them after the year. Can’t waste it.”

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." The second old man said with a smile.

Some of these gifts are given by banks.

Wang Yi gave Zhao Huan money to buy part of it.
