Chapter 315 The road is right (16)
Chang Ping’s idea is quite simple, but no one has thought of it before.
Games are, after all, an emerging industry in Kyushu, and the predecessors have played a very strong role in taking the lead, so that almost all the newcomers are following in Fang Wai’s footsteps.
Chang Ping jumped out of this framework and came up with another idea, which is to integrate currently popular card types and put them into the game.
It is very simple to make such cards. After all, the rules of traditional cards have been fixed. It does not require planning, and ordinary monks can complete it.
Moreover, this type of game does not have high requirements on the carrier, and bamboo slips can also be played.
In addition, it can play games without carrying any physical objects, relying on the magical network.
Everyone is so busy now, and gathering together usually costs money, but this game can completely allow monks to take time to gather in the game. It is a good tool to kill time.
After listening to Chang Ping’s description, Li Cheng was also a little moved.
After thinking for a while, he said hesitantly: "But I have a question. This game may not be able to compete with Fang Wai's "Kyushu"."
"Why do you want to fight Fang Wai?" Chang Ping asked immediately, "That man is like a mountain. We mortals should not have that kind of thinking. But there is a saying that is good, everything has its destiny, and every game has its destiny. They have their own fans. Many older generations are not used to playing Fangwai games. They prefer traditional chess and cards such as Mahjong Yexi, and our target is these people."
Li Cheng nodded, I feel like Chang Ping is right.
Thinking about it deeply, he found that it was indeed the case. They really didn’t need to compete head-on with Fangwai. They just needed to make a small, beautiful game with their own characteristics.
Following Chang Ping's train of thought, he said: "Interesting, our profit method can be very simple, just sell monthly game cards. Monthly cards for a dozen or so souls every month, and then You can play the game continuously for a month.”
“Okay! Just do it like this”
Li Cheng was intrigued by this business model, and later discovered that Chang Ping was really a talent.
The drinks were served, and the two chatted in the yard until dawn, and then they were shocked to realize that a night had passed.
However, neither of them had any intention of resting. Instead, they immediately started making the corresponding spells and transplanted a mahjong into the bamboo slip that afternoon.
The first game has been transplanted, and the subsequent games only modify the settings of the spells, and they can be copied very quickly.
In less than a day, several mainstream mahjong models have been transplanted, and then they will be promoted.
After posting related game posts on Tao Forum, Li Cheng and Chang Ping soon discovered that the number of players in the game was growing very slowly.
And the stickiness of the game is not high. Most players leave immediately after finding out that it is just an ordinary mahjong game, and not many people care.
Looking at the bleak game data, Li Cheng asked in confusion: "What's going on?"
"I don't know." Chang Ping frowned and said, "I thought we The previous idea was good, and it should make a lot of money.”
“Forget it, it doesn’t matter if it fails, we only have to invest one day.”
< br>
Even though he said this, Li Cheng was still a little unwilling.
Looking at the bleak data, Li Cheng watched the game eighteen times in an hour, but still couldn't figure out why.
Chang Ping looked at the game data and thought for a long time, when his attention was suddenly attracted by a comment.
【You need money as soon as you enter. I am afraid that you are crazy about money in this game. 】
One sentence made Chang Ping think for a long time. To make Paradise City, you need to rely on early settings to attract players, and their game makes people spend money as soon as it comes out, so it really can't retain people.
After thinking about it, he said to Li Cheng: "How about we change to a free model?"
Li Cheng's attention shifted from the data to Chang Ping and asked doubtfully: "How do you say free?"
"It means that the game does not charge money, allowing players to play for free, and they can play however they want. There is only game currency in the game, which needs to be purchased through recharge. And every time we play a game, we They all draw two points as tax for the winner, and no tax for the loser.”
“What if you don’t have game currency and don’t want to top up?”
"Give them some every day, and then open a monthly card, which will give more currency every day. At the same time, open a more advanced game room, where the mahjong base level is higher, and the playing is more exciting. As long as they are still there, then the popularity can be increased. And let more people come in."
"... Something is going on!"
The two began to modify it immediately, and put in the game types such as Pai Gow, and then put the game in anticipation. The download method is put back into the discussion place.
This time, the traffic of the game has obviously increased.
After entering, many players feel that this game is a bit interesting, and they can see all the card types they are familiar with.
Although it can't be used as a meal, it's still good to play with your childhood playmates when you have nothing to do.
And some of the elders in the family have become ghost cultivators, and it is said that they are a bit bored at ordinary times, so just let them play cards.
And the game does not cost money, and the older generation has fun playing it, so it is considered as a filial piety to them.
In less than a day, the number of online players in the game doubled. The unpretentious gameplay attracted a large number of players, and the game also earned five spiritual stones on the day after the modification. .
After being allocated two and a half spiritual stones, Chang Ping repeatedly counted the money on hand twice, then transferred it to "Soul of Heaven" and took a good hit.
After enjoying himself, he looked at the game data and couldn't help but said: "The game is really profitable."
"That's not true!" Li Cheng immediately replied, "Okay, let's continue to update the gameplay."
“Don’t enjoy the enjoyment?”
“It’s too late, the Refining Pavilion quickly followed suit. Others can estimate your game’s profit level through your charging model, number of players, etc., and then It depends on the difficulty of your game whether you want to follow the trend or not. We are just in the middle of the trend now, so it would be a pity not to make more money.”
“Okay, listen to you”
Crazyly updating templates and constantly creating new games, Chang Ping saw that the game's daily income continued to increase, and it gradually showed signs of becoming a popular game.
But this time, he did not blindly expand the scale. Instead, he and Li Cheng continued to improve the experience and prepare for the upcoming follow-up trend.
After all, the gameplay of the game is simple and easy to learn from. The Refining Pavilion quickly set off a wave of craze, but soon killed a large number of followers on the road.
After surviving, their chess and card games also lost two-thirds of their players, but the remaining players are almost all die-hard fans. Playing online every day has become a habit, and they only need to be maintained in the future. .
Currently, Chang Ping and Li Cheng's game has 8,000 people online at the same time every day, and 50,000 people online every day. These people have become their moat and give them the motivation to continue updating.
The daily income can be twelve spirit stones, which may not seem like much, but this is a game for two people, and the money divided every day is quite considerable.
Looking at his income, Chang Ping felt that he had made the right choice.
