Chapter 404: Internal Test Start
YY's closed beta has finally started quietly.
Li Mu installed the beta version of the software in his laptop, and he tested it in Yucheng Garden all night.
For this software, Li Mu gave a score of 90, which is very good.
This may be the first software that integrates its own ecology on the Internet. All the eight sections that Li Mu wants are in it, and it has achieved a very good integration with the software itself.
Compared with the current Internet products, the interface UI is very futuristic. The softening of edges and corners, the transition of colors, the display effect of icons, and the design aesthetics of dialog boxes have reached the level of five years later. Today's users shine.
The use is also very smooth. The information dialog box is separated from left to right. The received information is displayed on the left, and the sent information is displayed on the right. This is the basic configuration of instant messaging software in the future, but no company has taken this into account. At the same time, the Internet is still in the era of industrial revolution. Everyone is working hard to develop and manufacture various products, but no one thinks about how to make the products more refined and beautiful.
YY Cartoon Show has also blossomed in the hands of several cartoon designers who have returned from studying abroad. Japan and the United States have a very advanced understanding of cartoon and comic characters. The designers of this design team combine Japanese and American comics. It has developed a large number of cartoon characters and costumes with different styles, which are generally more than one grade higher than the QQ show of the previous life, which made Li Mu greatly admired.
"Miracle MU" has also been tested in private. Although Li Mu has the authority to re-designate the Chinese name for this game, he still retains the name. This game is destined to create miracles.
Different from the low-key secrecy of YY's internal test, the internal test of "Miracle MU" is quite high-profile!
Although people in the industry have long known that Baofeng Entertainment has won the agency rights of "Miracle MU" in China, only a few of them know that this company has a certain capital relationship with Muye Technology, and they know that "Miracle MU" should be on the Internet. The internal test of the national server was launched for half a year, but I did not expect the news of the internal test to be so fierce.
Tieba is almost full of firepower, giving all the promotion resources to "Miracle MU", promoting this online game with gorgeous interface everywhere, and combining with Li Mu's sign-in activities to give away beta accounts, Nokia mobile phones, and laptops , "Miracle MU" announced the first day of the closed beta, the number of sign-ups in Miracle MU Post Bar exceeded 8 million.
This data shocked the peer companies.
At the same time, screenshots of various closed beta games have also begun to appear on the Internet. The graphics of this game are very top-notch in current online games, much stronger than the graphics of "Legend".
However, a game like "Legend" cannot be measured by the screen. However, the game "Miracle MU" is far superior to "Legend" in terms of screen, characters, skills, equipment, and world structure, so as long as it operates well, it surpasses Legend is still very easy.
Because "Miracle MU" caused a sensation on the whole network just after the internal test was launched, netizens paid a lot of attention to "Miracle MU", and Stormwind Entertainment also announced that the game will not be deleted after the closed internal test for 15 days. The public beta will be fully open for registration, but the official did not tell the public when to start charging. Li Mu's idea is to start charging after one month of "Miracle MU" public beta operation.
From the first day of the internal test, every 24 hours, at 8:00 p.m. the next day, the official will announce the nicknames of the 23 winning users, as well as their non-detailed addresses. Take pictures and mail them to users using EMS. Since many users are active users of Tieba, there are a considerable number of fans in Tieba, so no one has any doubts about the lottery. This open and transparent method has attracted more netizens. No matter whether they are interested in the game or not, they will go to the "Miracle MU" post bar to sign in, just click the sign-in button to have the opportunity to get valuable prizes, such a low user cost, even if the chance of winning is very high Low, why not do it?
All the work is progressing in an orderly manner. The two most important things at the moment have already begun to operate officially. Li Mu is also temporarily relieved. He originally decided to spend a few days in school and live the life that a normal student should live. It's to give yourself a break in disguise.
For a long time, the chance of seeing Li Mu in the classroom was lower than that of winning the lottery. Not only the classmates felt this way, but even the teachers felt that way.
When every teacher calls his name before class, he basically has the habit of automatically ignoring the name Li Mu. Li Mu is very famous in the school, and the school leaders love it, the municipal party leaders love it, and the ministries and commission leaders are also highly praised and praised by the most Authoritative media reported one after another that he was known to everyone at the National People's Congress, and teachers also knew that students who can make troubles and make big troubles, it's normal not to come to class, but to let them go to class instead. I feel as awkward as having a leader come to the hall to listen.
Li Mu's performance in class is relatively low-key. He usually finds a corner to sit down. Most of the time, he lowers his head and fiddles with his mobile phone.
This afternoon during a public class, someone suddenly patted Li Mu on the shoulder from behind. Li Mu turned his head and saw that it was Dong Ai, who had not been seen for a long time.
The current Dong Ai looks much more mature than before. Whether it is hair style or makeup, there are some capable women in the workplace. Li Mu looked at her in surprise and asked in a low voice, "Why did Sister Ai come to listen to the freshman year? Public Courses?"
Dong Ai gave him a white look: "Pretend to be confused, I'm almost graduating, I'm here to find you!"
Li Mu asked curiously, "Why are you looking for me?"
Dong Ai said angrily: "Why do you think I'm looking for you? You leave all the 3321 matters to me, and you don't care about asking yourself. Now I'm busy all day long and have to come back to prepare my graduation thesis. I just heard that You're here, I'm here to arrest you."
Li Mu was ashamed: "You are really powerful, and it only took me ten minutes to come here."
Dong Ai pouted and said, "Go, sneak out through the back door, I'll tell you something."
Li Mu also felt that turning his head and chatting with her like this in class was not a good influence, so he nodded and walked out of the seat with a cat on his waist, and out of the classroom through the back door.
When the two left the teaching building, Dong Ai said to Li Mu, "It's the way it is now, 3321 has been launched in Yangcheng and Shenzhen, and these two cities have already overwhelmed our team. 3321 is popularized in major cities. With our current manpower and scale, it will take at least one or two years. We now have an idea to cooperate with 211 and 985 universities across the country, and the school will be responsible for the local operation of 3321, but the contact Several colleges and universities have implicitly expressed that they want to get some practical benefits, but the colleges have scruples, thinking that we are a non-profit organization, and they directly benefit from us, which will affect their public image."
Li Mu smacked his lips and said, "This means that they don't want to volunteer to help, they want money and face, and they don't want to take the money directly, right?"
Dong Ai nodded: "It basically means that."
Li Mu said: "If you feel that there is a need for rapid expansion now, then negotiate a periodic contract with these universities. During the contract period, they are responsible for helping us operate 3321 locally, and we are responsible for donating 30% of the commission to the school. , Let the school set up an education fund, the specific control of the funds is up to the school, and we will not intervene, in this case, even if there is a problem of misuse of the fund within them, it has nothing to do with us."
Dong Ai sighed: "It's still your smart mind, I've been thinking about how to reach a tacit understanding with them, and at the same time don't cause unnecessary hidden dangers with us. I'll understand when you say this, in the name of the education fund. We don't care what we do with the money to the school."
Li Mu said with a smile: "Sometimes it is necessary to be flexible. If the university is willing to do this, he will actively promote it without a penny of benefits, but if he wants to seek profit, you need to give them a little bit of it. However, we can’t operate illegally by ourselves. With this 30% commission, we can exchange it for a blank market and the remaining 70% of the commission. This money is in our hands and becomes our student fund, which can really serve public."
Dong Ai said: "I was just about to ask you about the issue of our student aid fund, although we still maintain the frequency of weekly student aid activities, and support the student team to carry out in-depth student aid activities at the same time two to three times a week. But the speed of our spending is still too slow, and now there are more than 30 million in cash on the account, and I don't know what to do with it."
Li Mu was also taken aback when he heard it: "More than 30 million? How many?"
Dong Aidao: "Yes, now that the four major cities have started business, the total capital of the student aid fund will continue to increase in the future. If we still insist on the strategy that the student aid must be distributed to the students, the money will continue to roll in. The more there are, the more people in society will doubt it.”
After listening, Li Mu nodded lightly: "Yes, when you have less money, you can control every money very carefully. If you have more money, if you want to control it so finely, the labor cost will be too high."
Dong Ai also said: "I think so too. We are a non-profit organization, and the scale of employees should not be too large. If it is too large, it will be extremely bloated internally, and the operating costs will be high, making it easier to be questioned by the outside world."
Li Mu thought about it seriously, and said, "Well, before September this year, we will spend 30 to 40 million yuan to plan a nationwide student aid program, which is only aimed at impoverished areas and poor families who are admitted to college. High school graduates, how to do it specifically, you want to come up with a plan."
