Chapter 1,308 The Destined Madness of the Future
It's Beijing time now, it's April this year, and I feel refreshed in the afternoon. The world's highest online rate of "World of Warcraft" has exceeded 10,000.
Although due to the popularity of "Crazy Farm", the highest online rate reached hundreds of thousands of people, it was just a casual online game after all. In the eyes of most game media and many game companies, although "Crazy Farm" is a substitute for "Second World" It brings in hundreds of millions of dollars in net profit every year, but it's not really a large-scale online game.
The so-called highest online rate is naturally countless.
This is just like the online rates of "Four Evils" and "" are the same. Does it make sense? No! Therefore, most game companies do not recognize "Farm Frenzy"'s record of the world's highest online number of 10,000 people.
Of course, it is closely followed by the record of 440,000 online players of "Virtual Life", also from the "Second World". This is a record that no game company can ignore, and it is also a painful record.
hook.
With thousands of players online, how much money do you make every day? Although "Virtual Life" is a completely free online game, its practice of inserting advertisements into the game has brought richer returns to the "Second World".
Many game companies feel very distressed when they think of the millions of dollars of profits that players of "Virtual Life" make for Lin Feng creator every day.
Even the recognized giants in the gaming industry, or Nintendo, another absolute king in the home game console industry, are extremely jealous of the wealth created by the "Second World" in the online gaming industry.
You know, before Lam Feng appeared, the game industry's usual way of making money was to invest first, then launch it after a long period of time, and finally go public, relying on the absolute quality of the game to attract players to buy the game and make money.
And now.
However, Lin Feng has greatly simplified this money-making model. He only needs to launch a good game, and then after a not too long period of time, it can attract a large number of players through various publicity methods or reward activities after it is launched, and players can Spending money unknowingly and paying for a long time for a game that is not very good.
Compared with the two game modes, Lin Feng's is undoubtedly simpler and easier, and it makes money faster and longer, and it is very easy to generate added value in the game.
You say, faced with this situation.
"Compared to Nintendo" and other companies, how not to be jealous, how not to be envious.
But now, "World of Warcraft" has easily broken this record again,
A game that has only been on the market for just an hour has already exceeded the number of online players in the world.
Thousands of people, you say, how amazing and terrifying this is.
Thinking about the future profits of "World of Warcraft", companies such as "Avatar" and "Nintendo" feel pain, very painful.
Of course, whether it will make money in the future remains to be tested, and companies such as "Nintendo" will not struggle with it now, but it is quite painful to auction tickets for birthdays in a game for 50,000 US dollars.
Not long before Lin Feng returned to the company, an "admission ticket" on "Dingdang.com" was auctioned for a sky-high price of US$50,000. This is undoubtedly the most expensive item sold in all online games. This prop is a one-time use.
It is a consumable item.
But it actually sold for 50,000 US dollars, which makes many game companies feel pain.
Is this the ticket for Lin Feng’s birthday?” When President Peter Moore heard the news, he smiled bitterly.
50,000 US dollars, which is enough to buy all the games that "" has been released since its establishment, but now it only bought a consumable prop of "Second World", a newly released online game.
Faced with this news, Peter Moore didn't know whether he was dead or the world was too crazy.
Of course, not only Peter I.
Moore and others were shocked, and even Lin Feng, the instigator, was also shocked.
50,000 US dollars is enough to buy a ticket to the virtual world in the game. This is really exaggerated. There are only so many rich people in this world, and they are so free! In fact, Lin Feng doesn't even know how much appeal he has around the world now, not to mention that many of Lin Feng's friends will attend this birthday.
Buying a ticket for $50,000, although it is virtual, is definitely not expensive.
After all, $50,000 is not too much to celebrate a birthday with the world's richest and many richest people.
Especially for those rich people, spending $50,000 to buy something to celebrate a birthday with the world's richest people is really a good deal.
"Boss, you are so charming!" Wu Zhaopu sighed.
Lin Feng also sighed.
If I had known this, it would be better for the "Second World" official to sell this birthday coupon.
Think about it, a total of 10,000 seats, 50,000 US dollars per ticket, that’s 10,000 US dollars.
The entire "World of Warcraft" opening fee plus publicity costs are only US$200 million, and now a ticket for Lin Feng's birthday can be sold for US$2, which is really profitable.
Of course, all this is just the tripod.
It is impossible for Lin Feng to really sell tickets, and tickets will not be sold for US$50,000.
But no matter what, "World of Warcraft Basawa Wang" set a world record.
A large-scale role-playing online game, Mkai's record.
"Boss, your birthday starts in 2 hours.
Do you want to take a break first.
eat something? "Wu Zhaopu asked.
Although Lin Feng went to eat at noon, he didn't finish the meal, and it was already afternoon in a blink of an eye.
It's almost time, and Lin Feng's birthday in the game is about to begin. Wu Zhaopu is worried that Lin Feng will faint from hunger.
You know, now for, "The Second Life Ode."
For me, except for Lin Feng, what I want to say is not that important.
"No, I'll just have something to eat, and then I'll go home to eat after finishing this."
Lin Feng smiled and waved his hand.
You must know that Li Zhiyou has prepared a table full of sumptuous dinner for him tonight, and Zi Gong cannot let her down.
Wu Zhaopu also understood this, who made Lin Fengyan so lucky?
People all say "die in the face of the light."
Fortunately for him, it's a miracle that several girls can still get along harmoniously after "king meets king".
Time passed by minute by minute, and soon it was 8 o'clock in the evening, when Lin Feng's birthday was held.
In the meantime, as the time approaches, Lin Feng’s “ticket for birthday” comes.
It has been auctioned for a staggering final price of $70,000.
Spending $70,000 to buy birthday tickets to a series of virtual worlds is really crazy.
Crazy, crazy, these players are crazy! "Nintendo.
President Satoru Iwata shook his head.
After today, who would have thought that a ticket for a virtual game’s birthday game could be sold for $70,000. This is crazy. This world is so crazy.
But what’s even crazier is that instead of feeling distressed that they spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy a basically useless virtual ticket, those players who bought tickets at auction are actually complacent.
What, distressed? No, no, no, not at all.
Although US$70,000 is already half a year's salary for me, being able to communicate with the world's richest people up close and attending a birthday together will be the most glorious moment in my life.
And I firmly believe that tonight will help me far more than $70,000 will help me.
The white-collar player who spent US$70,000 to buy Lin Feng's birthday ticket said in an interview with USA Today.
A bang! This player's words undoubtedly added fuel to the fire, making the already hard-to-find market even more popular.
It can be said that since this player took the photo, the tickets for Lin Feng's birthday have become even more popular. Although the price has not been higher, there is no doubt that all the tickets, thousands of tickets, have been put up for auction.
Even players who had spent money to buy tickets before put them up for auction again. After all, the temptation of money was unbeatable.
However, the biggest beneficiaries are undoubtedly Chinese players.
10,000 four tickets.
Most of them appear in China, and the average price of each one is 10,000 US dollars. It can be said that on the first day of the launch of "World of Warcraft", Chinese players earned 3 to 3 with Lin Feng's birthday tickets. Keep $100 million! Chinese players earned US$300 million on this day. It must be said that this is a quite shocking and terrifying record.
On this day, all the Chinese players who got tickets were undoubtedly smiling.
According to subsequent statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics, on this day, the game "World of Warcraft" was launched on the first day and gave birth to a 100,000 millionaire in China. At the same time, due to the high consumption of this 400,000 millionaire after making money, , directly promotes the future popularity of China's real estate.
You know, on average, these Chinese players earned an average of tens of thousands of yuan each, and most of them chose to buy houses.
Although he is only a player, his sudden choice to buy a house at the same time undoubtedly allowed real estate developers to see the room for rising house prices.
This will also lead to the rise of China's real estate in the future.
Of course, the greater role of this billionaire is to promote the rapid development of online games.
In one day, you can earn hundreds of thousands of RMB. This temptation is undoubtedly fatal and has absolutely fatal attraction.
Think about it, those wage earners who earn 2,000 yuan a month now, working hard, without eating or drinking, can only earn more than 10,000 yuan a year. It takes years of work to earn these players. Money that can be earned in a day.
Instead of doing this, it is better to play more online games. Maybe one day you will be lucky and get a similar ticket, and maybe you will not have to work hard in this life.
This is what most people thought later.
Of course, Lin Feng doesn't know that at the moment. As far as Lin Feng is concerned, the most important thing is the date of his birthday.
This time, players all over the world are crazy about it. If Lin Feng doesn’t do something to make players feel that buying this birthday ticket is worthwhile, then no one will buy it in the future.
Lin Feng’s plan to let domestic players Wu Jicai earn money from foreign players has come to nothing.”
