Gu Yuqing rolled her eyes at Chen Ya. Others didn't catch the dirty joke he just made, but she did.

Although she didn't care, she had never dared to make such a joke in front of her before, so she complained about the person in front of her.

If it had been anyone else, she would have been severely beaten in front of her until she couldn't even stand up straight. But Chen Ya's smile looked like spring water, sweet and tinged with a hint of brightness, like the kind of person who had a crush in school but didn't dare to confess it.

The school boy, even the big devil Gu Yuqing, couldn't bear to scold him directly.

Although Gu Yuqing had a good opinion of Chen Ya because of the Appearance Association, her tone was still not polite.

"High output? A game company describes itself as having high output? Unheard of." Gu Yuqing crossed her arms and crossed her long legs.

"Explain it?"

"The current profit model of online games generally has two models, one is the point card system, and the other is free plus in-app purchases." Chen Ya said,

“The essence of the point card system is to sell time, while the free model is to sell data.”

"The point card system has a characteristic. The longer the game operation time, the higher the IP value, and it robs players of their time, resulting in an obvious 28-year-old effect, or even a 19-year effect. Therefore, there are fewer and fewer point-card system games now, and most new

You can only choose free tracks when traveling.

"The current mentality of free games is mostly to sell anxiety. You can get a good gaming experience by charging money. If you don't charge money, you will be someone else's gaming experience. I don't comment on whether this method is ethical, but it is

This model is doomed that the game cannot really reach the public." Gu Yuqing frowned slightly when she heard this: "You haven't said the key point yet."

"Yes, but please listen to me patiently. We can easily analyze and conclude that if we create data discrepancies and force players to recharge, it will cause the user base to shrink; if there are too few payment points, it will make it difficult for the game to operate in the long term.

"So, our game will adopt a win-win model. Our model is that recharge players spend money, and free players build a community, maximizing both the user group and willingness to pay." Gu Yuqingyang

He raised his eyebrows.

According to her experience, nine out of ten people who claim to have discovered a new profit model are unreliable.

And the person in front of him is even more outrageous. What he said is equivalent to denying the model of all games for decades - if you can really have your cake and eat it too, who will be forced to make only one kind of game?

"If you want to have your cake and eat it too, you have to raise a bear that can catch fish. Do you have one?" Gu Yuqing asked with a somewhat sarcastic smile on her lips.

"Yes, this bear's name is Update," Chen Ya said with a smile.

"The experience that the point card system has contributed to the gaming industry is that version updates can increase player stickiness and ensure online time. Therefore, we rely on updated versions to win over users.

"We are a card drawing game. We plan to update a version every 6 weeks and open a new card pool at the same time. This will ensure popularity and payment points at the same time, and use the income from each version to develop the next version to achieve a virtuous cycle.

..." After hearing this, the male consultant sitting next to Gu Yuqing finally couldn't bear it anymore. He turned to ask Gu Yuqing's opinion with his eyes. After getting the agreement, he asked Chen Ya politely: "What do you mean?

You don’t want to make money by creating numerical anxiety, right? Then let me ask you, what mode does your pvp use? Is it direct confrontation or ranking list? How to design the guild?”

"No pvp, no guild," Chen Ya said calmly,

"There are no rankings and no confrontation. These methods will create numerical anxiety, and the game experience of low-level players will become high-level players." The consultant's forehead twitched, and then asked patiently: "You don't have PVP,

It’s another card-drawing game, so what’s the motivation for players to draw cards?”

"Love!" Chen Ya's voice rose a little unconsciously,

"It is the obligation of game producers to design each character to be extremely cute! Players will naturally pay for love!" The consultant rubbed his head with his hands and asked: "Never mind whether it is reasonable to pay for love.

, when you have one version every six weeks, how do you ensure that your values ​​​​do not inflate? Once your values ​​​​inflate, the so-called paying for love becomes completely nonsense, because once the character falls into the strength trap, there is no such thing as cute or unlovable.

"

"We have a very complete mechanism to limit numerical expansion."

"What mechanism?"

"We can design a set of elemental reaction mechanisms. Each character has an element, and these elements will react with each other. For example, ice and water will freeze, thunder and fire will explode. In that case, the character will change

It has become an elemental transmitter. All you need is a reasonable combination, and every character will be useful. There is no strength trap." After hearing this, Gu Yuqing finally became a little interested, put down her legs that were raised high, and sat upright.

The consultant on the side continued to ask: "Even so, the version you said every six weeks is not very realistic. Take Meow, the Pandaren Expedition, and the Mystery of the Burning Legion. These major versions will cause changes in the world. How about you?"

Is there such a high amount of plot expansion?”

"It's very simple, our protagonist is a traveler," Chen Ya said,

"His goal is to travel around the world. There are two or three regions in a country, which means two or three new maps. I designed 7 countries, which is dozens of new maps and new versions." The consultant said: "You plan to operate this game.

several years?"

"The target is ten years." The consultant immediately said: "Thirty-seven, twenty-one, counting your 21 new pictures, that is, 21 versions. In total, it will be updated in less than three years. How can you last until ten years?

"

"Don't worry," Chen Ya said with a smile,

"There are also festivals! We don't just celebrate real festivals, we celebrate virtual festivals. One country designs one festival, and 7 countries have 7 festivals.

"There are 52 weeks in a year, and a total of 8 versions are updated. I count one holiday as one version, which covers the whole year. I celebrate it every year and do new activities every time, so I can achieve perpetual motion!" After that, he added

Said: "Moreover, it is not necessary to release a large amount of content every update. Between every two major versions, there will be some transitional small versions. In short, there is no need to worry about not keeping up with the updated content."

"This..." The consultant was speechless for a moment, but he immediately reacted and patted the table again and asked,

"Even so, your frequency of updating a version every six weeks is not realistic. Where does your production capacity come from?" Chen Ya stared at him for a while, opened the laptop in front of him, turned it over, and faced it.

consultant.

"Here, this is our demo. It only took us six weeks to make this. Take a look." The consultant dragged the laptop over. He is a professional consultant in games. Naturally, he got started with game demos very quickly. It was just simple.

After operating it for a while, my eyes widened.

"This...was this made in six weeks?" The demo Chen Ya handed him was infinitely close to a completed game.

Not only are the characters, actions, and maps very detailed, but there are also light and shadow and day and night weather systems, and there are even some tasks and dialogues.

He could play this demo for a while. Gu Yuqing asked from the side: "How is it?"

"It's...ok, although I don't know what the specific finished product will be."

"I asked about the degree of completion and whether the technical skills are sufficient to update every six weeks?" Gu Yuqing emphasized.

"Oh, the degree of completion is very high," the consultant said reluctantly,

"At least it can prove that their technical level is sufficient for bragging." Chen Ya did not care about his attitude and said with a smile: "You are right, our technical level is very strong, so we will update it every six weeks

There is no need to worry about the frequency." Gu Yuqing stared at Chen Ya with her beautiful eyes and said, "Let me ask you a few questions."

"Speaking."

"Your payment point is mainly the new card pool launched after the update, and you use the money earned to develop the next version. However, this is only an ideal state. You cannot guarantee that every update will be bought by players." Chen Ya nodded.

: "That's true, but after the overall ecosystem is established, the further it is updated, the easier it will be to make profits." Gu Yuqing asked: "You said that your payment points are mainly cute characters, but I see the art style of your demo

I prefer the second dimension. This group of people in China doesn’t have a large audience. Are you sure you will eventually break out of the circle?”

"First of all, let's be clear," Chen Ya suddenly stood up and said

"Se Se is the primary productive force." People sitting on the other side of the long table all looked at him.

"Modern society is a pluralistic society. In other words, it is a world without consensus. Any point of view will be refuted by most people, but only Shise will not.

"Sese brings people together. Nothing can arouse human beings' desire to protect, conquer, and possess more than cute girls and boys...

"So, next, you just need to trust my XP, and it just so happens that my XP is very trustworthy, because I have seen too many cute girls." When Chen Ya said the last words, he kept thinking

Looking at Gu Yuqing, the consultant on the side couldn't hold back. He stretched out his hand and slapped the table: "How presumptuous!"

"Pfft." Gu Yuqing suddenly laughed, making her branches tremble.

"Okay, last question, how much investment do you want to get?"

"100 million," Chen Ya said, staring at everyone in front of him.

"U.S. dollars." After saying this, the air in the room froze.

"100 million US dollars?" The consultant leaned forward and asked,

"You are just a small team of 4 people, and you dare to ask for 100 million U.S. dollars? Do you have any misunderstandings about our Gaoshan Capital?"

"No, there is no misunderstanding. Only you in China have the courage to spend 100 million US dollars in one breath, so I found you." Gu Yuqing stopped laughing, put her hand on her lips, and said: "Okay, you can go out, let's

We have to discuss it behind closed doors for 10 minutes." Chen Ya nodded, turned around and went out.

As soon as the door was closed, a fierce quarrel broke out in the room.

"This guy's idea is so unrealistic! Why not just dream for $100 million?"

"Judging from their plan, it does require US$100 million to support the early development."

"In other words, a small team with no team, no technical accumulation, and nothing comes to us and asks for 100 million. How does such a project pass the review?"

"..." After a long time, the discussion atmosphere in the room gradually cooled down. Gu Yuqing looked at the colleagues beside her and asked coldly: "Is the discussion over?" Everyone nodded in unison, and the consultant beside him was particularly determined.

"What's the result?" Everyone looked at each other for a while, and the consultant said: "It's not very promising."

"What's your opinion?"

"disagree."

"I don't agree either." After several people expressed their opinions one after another, Gu Yuqing nodded and waved: "Since everyone doesn't agree, then let's not pass it." The secretary girl on the side used her seal in her hand to stamp her hand.

On the stack of documents in front of me, I wrote: Fail.

...When Gu Yuqing walked out of the room, she saw the young men squatting there on the bench in the corridor, covering their heads.
