Chapter 829 Supreme Pursuit

At noon, six people including Wu Di agreed to join Muye Technology on the spot at the dinner table. At the same time, Wu Di said that he would communicate with other team members after returning to Pearl City, and try to persuade as many people to join as possible.

However, beyond Lin Qingya's expectations, Wu Di called himself at night and told himself that six more people were already willing to join Muye Technology.

It turned out that he formed a yy group in the afternoon, and then pulled six relatively core and trustworthy members of Xishanju into the group. The six people here persuaded the six people there, and in one afternoon, they also persuaded all the six people, Let them follow themselves and join Makino Technology without hesitation.

So Lin Qingya took only one day to take down the entire core team of Xishanju. This efficiency made Li Mu speechless when he heard it on the phone.

After praising Lin Qingya's high efficiency without hesitation, Li Mu also began to think about the overall planning of the online game business.

In the future, under the big structure of the game business department of Makino Technology, there will be two subdivided business groups: one is the self-owned game business group, and the other is the agency game business group. The latter is relatively low in technology and requires attention. Being sharp and quick, and having the advantage of Li Mu's rebirth, this work will be easier to advance, but if you want to do the former well, it will be very difficult.

Xu Bo, nicknamed Lao Xu, should be able to handle the structure of the game "Fantasy Westward Journey", and the Xishanju team should be able to handle the structure and development of a martial arts or Xianxia-themed game, with Lin Qingya from various companies. With the game development talents dug, Muye Technology can launch two game development projects in the short term, but these are only two online games that can make money in China.

When it comes to online games, Li Mu has always had a very big regret, that is: Huaxia, as the world's largest online game market in the future, is a pure online game importer. While importing a large number of online games, none of the local online games can Really exported to the world!

Not to mention letting Huaxia Online Games launch a game as popular as World of Warcraft, they don't even have a game that can be exported to the Korean and Japanese markets.

In Li Mu's view, whether it is ancient culture or modern literature, there are many classic IPs in China, among which the world structure is so grand that it is not inferior to World of Warcraft.

However, domestic game companies are really reluctant to make progress. Most of the domestic games are small and broad. No one has really thought about investing enough manpower, energy and material resources to create a truly masterpiece. A model of domestic online games.

Huaxia's online game industry has been accompanied by huge profit temptation from the very beginning, so that many game companies adhere to a development concept: make quick money! Earn a fortune is a fortune! One shot for another place!

Based on this background, Li Mu's summary of China's online game market is four words: "three fast and one short"

Both: fast research and development, fast launch, fast money making, and short lifespan.

Compared with the R&D costs of heavyweight online games that cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars, many game companies in Huaxia can develop a game adapted from a popular IP with millions of funds at most tens of millions.

Of the game development costs, more than half of the funds are used to buy IPs and publicity, and the remaining half of the funds are used for casual development, and then use the popularity of IP to make a round of speculation, attracting a large number of IP fans. In the first few months of operation, the game will be able to pay back the cost, and the rest of the time is almost pure profit.

Due to the shoddy production and low playability of the game, most domestic online games cannot escape a rule: a large number of users gradually abandon the game after playing for a period of time, and the rate of user loss will soon exceed the growth rate.

Before long, the game will face the embarrassing situation of fewer and fewer people and lower and lower profits. On the contrary, online game companies put less and less effort into the game, and the game experience is getting worse and worse. In the end, the entire game is completely shut down and withdrawn from the stage, and the popular IPs are also completely destroyed.

In this industry context, the possibility of Huaxia market wanting to develop a heavyweight online game is almost zero.

Not to mention small companies, even companies like Tengxun that make a lot of money from games every year may not be willing to invest a lot of money to develop a heavyweight online game. On the contrary, the more money they make, the more they become. Be cautious.

Representing successful overseas games and imitating successful overseas games, these two models with low error rates have become the mainstream of Tengxun and other game companies, and the proportion of self-developed is almost negligible.

In Li Mu's view, this is a great tragedy for China's Internet industry, and it is almost the same as the sorrow of China's domestic auto industry. In China's future auto market, most of the brands will be joint ventures, and the remaining domestic brands will basically rely on imitation, It's embarrassing to learn for a living.

Li Mu has this ambition and hopes to have the opportunity to export Chinese culture to the world through online games in the future. The Japanese can integrate the elements of "Journey to the West" into "Dragon Ball" and promote it to the world. Why has Huaxia never had a really effective one? Ways to export "Journey to the West" to overseas markets? If there is a chance in the future, will it be able to create Huaxia's "Journey to the West", as well as martial arts, fairy tales and even fantasy novels like Blizzard created World of Warcraft?

Li Mu felt that as long as he was willing to let go of utilitarianism and use his ingenuity to build and polish products, there was absolutely a chance to achieve this goal. I was afraid that all practitioners would focus on profit and only want to make quick money. In that case, It will never be possible to make a game like World of Warcraft.

Huaxia is a big country, how big is the gap between technology and industry and Western countries. Li Mu, an ordinary person, can't talk nonsense, but when it comes to the ability to tell stories, Li Mu thinks Huaxia is definitely one of the top ethnic groups, and there is no shortage of good people. The story, what is lacking is only the people who present the story with heart.

Li Mu is willing to cultivate his own game R&D team from now on, so that his team can continue to improve, to keep up with the game R&D teams of Japan, South Korea, and western developed countries. If Muye Technology has the strength in the future, Li Mu is willing to send people from his game team out. Studying in those game companies overseas is also willing to use high salaries to attract overseas game developers to join in.

First build a top team, and then provide enough financial support. On the premise of putting aside utilitarianism, as long as you dive in, you will be able to develop at least one heavyweight game that can be exported to the world.

Perhaps one day in the future, it will no longer be "World of Warcraft" that is popular all over the world, but China's fantasy and immortal-themed online games. Architecture, but the magnificent background of Chinese culture...

This goal is still far away for Muye Technology at the moment, but now, Li Mu has regarded this as his highest pursuit of the online game business!

...

The specific policy of "computers entering the city" has not been released yet; Makino's work is orderly, blogs are being developed, and game teams are being formed; Taobao's operations have been on the right track, and Taobao Logistics has entered the stage of site selection for the construction of procurement and logistics bases. , Liu Yongdong is running around the country with the logistics team; Zhao Kang has also begun to take over the project of the chain Internet cafes, Yanjing's busy work can finally come to an end temporarily, and Li Mu finally has the opportunity to breathe a sigh of relief.

But it's only a temporary sigh of relief, because there are big battles to be fought in every link. Li Mu is like a belligerent in a shopping mall, and countless wars against different enemies have been planned in his mind, and even fight against different enemies. I can't even count it with my fingers.

Because of his debt to Zhao Ziqiu, Li Mu deliberately asked Li Ziwei to book a flight to Hangzhou tomorrow afternoon for himself and Wang Yuenlang, and at the same time, he booked two luxurious suites in the best hotel in Hangzhou, one for himself and one for himself. to Wang Yuen Long and the others.

After instructing Li Ziwei, Li Mu called Zhao Ziqiu.

It was already night, Zhao Ziqiu received a call from Li Mu, and his voice was very happy, and he came up and asked, "Why did you think of calling me today?"

Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "I miss you, and it's not very busy today, what are you doing?"

"I miss you too." Zhao Ziqiu said with joy in his voice, "I just lay down after taking a shower and was just about to read a book when you called."

Li Mu couldn't help but wanted to tease her and asked, "Tell me, what do you think of me? I'll see if it's the same as me."

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Ziqiu was quiet for a moment, his voice suddenly lowered, and he said softly, "I was thinking about the night I spent your birthday with you..."

Birthday night? Isn't that the night Zhao Ziqiu gave herself as a "gift"?

Li Mu couldn't help laughing and said, "There is a little girl who seems to be thinking... Spring?"

"How can there be..." Zhao Ziqiu snorted, and after a while, she gathered up her courage and said, "I just thought about it. Who told you not to come to see me in Hangzhou for so long, and the school will start in half a month."

Li Mu originally wanted to give her a surprise when she landed tomorrow, but she couldn't hold back what she said at the moment, with a tone of guilt and love, and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't do well enough, I booked a ticket for tomorrow, five in the afternoon. I got to Hangcheng around 1:00 pm, and someone has already booked a room at Hilton. Do you want to take me to taste the delicious food of Hangcheng tomorrow night, and then accompany me to bed sheets at the hotel in the evening?"

The simple Zhao Ziqiu asked subconsciously, "What does rolling the sheets mean?"

Li Mu smiled: "It's just two people hugging each other and rolling around on the bed..."

"Rogue..." Zhao Ziqiu grumbled angrily, and then said sternly: "Mom kept telling me to ask you to come to Hangcheng, she said she wanted to invite you to dinner, and Dad kept saying that he wanted you to come to Hangcheng to meet him. ,so……"

After Zhao Ziqiu finished speaking, without waiting for Li Mu to answer, he hurriedly added: "It doesn't matter if you don't want to see them, I'll tell them."

Li Mu hurriedly said, "Why don't I want to see you? Tell your uncles and aunts for me, and say that I will go to Hangzhou tomorrow and invite them to dinner in the evening."
