Chapter 28 How to Go Further
Although the technology in this world has developed a lot, and there are many black technologies that Chen She does not understand at all, in the field of Super Dream, some shadows of the game industry in the previous life can still be vaguely seen.
After the online version of Super Dream is officially launched, it is necessary to buy traffic from major channel vendors first.
The so-called buying traffic, on the one hand, is to buy various key recommendation columns and exposure, and on the other hand, it can also directly let the channel vendors direct players to this Super Dream to check the evaluation.
There are many large and small Super Dream channel vendors on the Internet. Although Changye Entertainment Group has achieved a relative monopoly in the field of research and development, it is only a relatively large channel vendor in the field of channels.
Many large chaebols related to network business, such as Tianji Network Group, Avalon Exchange, and even Gaoke Group, whose main business is the research and development of high-tech chips, are involved in channel business.
For Chen She, there is actually no essential difference between these channels, because their charges are roughly the same.
In this case, it is almost impossible for a new Super Dream to become popular on the Internet purely by relying on natural traffic, and there is no such thing as an official recommendation position.
First spend money to buy traffic, then there is the next step.
As for whether the cost can be recovered, it depends on how Mewtwo performs.
In other words, no matter whether the developers of Mewtwo make a profit or a loss, these channel dealers will never lose money.
After these channel dealers get Mewtwo, they will comprehensively analyze the players' game time in this Mewtwo, player feedback and other different factors based on the initial volume results.
They will roughly give a rating. The higher the rating, the more volume they will give.
After all, if the channel dealer launches a hit Mewtwo, they can directly take 70% of the revenue of this Mewtwo, and they are also motivated to vigorously promote some Mewtwo with potential.
When Chen She first knew this number, he thought of the classic line.
Why is it only 70%? 70% belongs to others.
This share is a rule jointly formulated by various online channel dealers. As a Mewtwo developer, you can disobey it. If you have the ability, you can promote it yourself.
After the online version of Mewtwo is launched, the channel dealer will not give very specific numbers, because there are many and complicated data, and the channel dealer does not want to leak these data easily.
Instead, the channel dealers have a very complete evaluation system. This intelligent system can dynamically infer the data changes of this Mewtwo after continuous promotion and continuous volume according to the current data changes.
In other words, based on the comprehensive analysis of factors such as player retention and willingness to pay, the approximate revenue of this Mewtwo in the next week, month or even half a year can be analyzed.
When Chen She was modifying the Mewtwo in "Desperate War", he was able to see the future revenue change trend after a few hours because of the existence of this system.
For Chen She, except that this system made him feel relatively novel, the rest seemed to be no different from his previous life.
It is not only the Mewtwo industry that is like this. In some other places, Chen She also has a very familiar sense of vision from his previous life.
For example, one thing he really wants to complain about is that in his previous life, he saw street gang fights abroad, which were a large number of cold weapons plus a few firearms, and there were not many large-scale gun battles.
And this world is so technologically advanced, with mechanical prostheses and high-tech smart rifles, but street fights are still like this.
It feels like technology has improved, but it has only improved in vain. It seems to have no impact on the daily life of the lower class.
At most, many aspects of daily life have become more convenient, and entertainment industries such as Super Dream have risen several levels.
Chen She speculated that it is possible that the ruling class of this world is maintaining a relatively stable and balanced situation.
Whether it is raising the price of smart guns or maintaining a relative balance between large conglomerates and emerging conglomerates through the "Enterprise Special Law", it is all for the purpose of stabilizing social order.
Are there any top high-tech technologies? Of course there are, but they are only used in a few within the large conglomerates and will never be delegated to the general public.
Otherwise, if street thugs can get a lot of guns and form a very powerful armed force, the world would have been turbulent long ago, and it would be impossible to maintain superficial stability.
It is precisely because of this that Chen She believes that the objective conditions for the rebels to oppose the large conglomerates are not mature.
Are the homeless people and street thugs at the bottom of Dawn City completely in a situation where they can't make a living, can't survive, and will die if they don't resist the large conglomerates?
It seems that there is none.
So even if the rebel organization has developed to a relatively large scale, as long as the big chaebols unite to form a corporate coalition army, it can be quickly extinguished.
Chen She was stunned for a while, and the two online versions of Mewtwo were all online and began to guide the traffic.
The first thing that came out was the Mewtwo rating selected based on the preliminary guidance results.
The rating of "Embers Will Go Out" is C, and the rating of "Wandering in the Garden" is A.
Mewtwo ratings are divided into 5 levels: S, A, B, C, and D, with S being the highest and D being the worst.
Generally speaking, if there is an S-level rating, it means that the initial data is extremely good and there is the potential for a super hit.
Chen She was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the rating of "Embers Will Go Out" was C.
Generally speaking, a C-rated Mewtwo is either a relatively niche Mewtwo or a medium-low quality Mewtwo.
The C-rated Mewtwo has not been completely sentenced to death, which shows that it still has room to struggle.
Because some niche types of Mewtwo are not in line with the public's tastes and have many players dismissed, resulting in relatively low ratings. However, as long as players with corresponding tastes can be identified and targeted push is made, the conversion efficiency will be very high, and Guaranteed to make money.
Chen She was a little nervous at first, fearing that the online version of "The Ember Will Go Out" could turn around, but after thinking about it, this C rating may just be because everyone saw that "The Ember Will Go Out" is a Mewtwo that is quite well-made and has a good style of painting. It is considered unique, so it produces a kind of confusing erroneous data.
The possibility of turning over should be slim.
As for "Wandering in the Garden", this Mewtwo has received an A rating, which means that there will be a certain tilt in the recommended resources, and it is absolutely no problem to make a small profit.
After all, this Mewtwo is somewhat similar to "Castle Escape", and the gameplay is relatively simple. It is not a big investment or big production. Giving it an A rating already shows that its various data are very good-looking.
Lin Luxi also showed an expression of joy on her face, obviously the result was better than she expected.
Next, just wait patiently for changes in the predicted data!
Chen She looked at the two gradually changing curves of Mewtwo's estimated data on the display screen.
On the whole, it is a trend of rising first and then falling. After all, most Mewtwo's data will rise rapidly after it is first launched, and then it will drop again when players get tired of playing.
But the same trend of rising first and then falling, the slope of the rise and the magnitude of the decline, as well as the highest point it can reach, or whether there are any special fluctuations in the middle, are the fundamental differences in the data between different Chaomeng.
It can be clearly seen that the early climbing speed of Mewtwo in "The Ember Will Go Out" is very slow, and the slope is also very small. It climbs to a relatively high point with difficulty and then slowly descends.
This shows that the system has judged that as a C-rated Mewtwo, "The Ember Will Go Out" will not have large data fluctuations.
That is to say, to satisfy the taste of a very few players, it can be said that it is relatively weak from beginning to end.
The curve of "Wandering in the Garden" is very different. The early growth rate was extremely fast, which was simply exponential growth.
The subsequent falling speed is not very steep and is relatively gentle, indicating that this is a Mewtwo that is easy to explode and has relatively long-lasting stamina.
Lin Luxi was very surprised: "Mr. Chen, look at it. The data curve of Mewtwo in "Walking in the Garden" is the best curve. It shows that it spreads quickly and becomes popular very quickly. At the same time, the subsequent decrease in popularity will not be special. Suddenly, there’s a certain vitality to it in the later stages.”
"You said that this Mewtwo can make a lot of money for us with a small gain. Judging from the current data trend, it can indeed complete this task successfully!"
Chen She was also very happy, as a stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
He was originally very worried. If "Wandering in the Garden" was also sold out, he would be deeply worried about his situation.
Now it seems that although the income of "Wandering in the Garden" is higher than he expected, this section is actually easy to handle, as long as he finds a way to spend it.
On the one hand, it is to strengthen the daily training of the resistance soldiers, and there will be a certain profit gap in the OEM business; on the other hand, it is to find an excuse to repair the prosthetics and refurbish the weapons and equipment of the resistance soldiers, which is also a huge sum of money. Not a small expense.
In other words, Chen She achieved his goals perfectly in both games, losing one and making a profit, and finally maintained a dynamic balance!
Chen She breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the estimated data has come out, he can feel relieved for the time being.
"You should continue to keep an eye on the data. If you have anything, please report to me at any time."
"I'm a little tired, I need to go back and take a rest."
Chen She has been worried these past few days and his sleep quality is not particularly good. He plans to go back and catch up on his sleep.
Lin Luxi nodded immediately: "Okay, Mr. Chen, I'll take care of everything!"
…
Not long after Chen She left, Zhao Zhen and Zhang Sirui arrived.
Although they all have their own things to be busy with, it is obvious that the success of these two Mewtwos is directly related to the future military expenditure of the resistance, and they also attach great importance to it.
Zhao Zhen asked: "What are the statistics of the two Mewtwos?"
Lin Luxi answered truthfully: "Mr. Chen has indeed studied the design method of Chaomeng with great concentration, and the performance of "Wandering in the Garden" is very outstanding. At present, we make preliminary judgments based on the system data trend, and we should be able to make considerable profits."
"The profit from "Wandering in the Garden" is enough to cover all the research and development funds for "The Ember Will Go Out", and there is even a surplus."
Zhao Zhen and Zhang Sirui were also very happy after seeing the data change curves of the two Mewtwos.
At least there was no tragedy like the one at the beginning of "Desperate War".
After taking a closer look at the data curve of the dying ember, Zhao Zhen frowned slightly: "Why did you spend so many resources on this Mewtwo? It's a bit of a waste."
Lin Luxi explained: "Mr. Chen insists that this Mewtwo still has room to be saved, and it is worth investing some resources to have a chance of turning around."
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly. Although he did not agree with this behavior, after all, Mr. Chen had already proved his game design talent with two Mewtwo games: "Desperate Battle" and "Walking in the Garden".
It is understandable to be stubborn about the Mewtwo in "Embers Are Going Out".
Zhang Sirui stroked his chin, looked at the data curve of Leisurely Walk, and said with some regret: "Although this data curve is not bad, after all, the actual money earned is not that much. Considering our OEM business, there will be some profit losses due to the reduction of working hours. In this way, there is no essential change in funds."
"After working for a long time, we only made such a little more profit. At this rate, when can we achieve our goal?"
"Is there any way to make the data of Mewtwo in "Leisurely Walk" reach a higher level , become a super hit? Is it useful to continue to pile up the volume? "
Lin Luxi shook his head slightly: "It doesn't make much sense, because the system has already helped us calculate different purchase results, and the one displayed now is the best choice. "
"If you want to further increase your profits, the only way is to use some means to create a phenomenal super dream viral spread effect. Let it become popular in a larger range and even form a trend. "
"But this is too difficult and can't be done by spending money. "
Hearing this, Zhao Zhen and Zhang Sirui looked at each other, and it was obvious that they thought of the same thing.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Zhen said: "In this case, the person we didn't use in "Desperate Battle" can be used now. "
Zhang Sirui nodded: "I'll contact him now! "
