Chapter 167 Very Expansive
The interview lasted about 2 hours. All the tricks Han Lu carefully prepared were resolved by Chen Mo. Not only that, Han Lu felt that he was in danger of being tricked by Chen Mo.
In the end, Han Lu really had nothing to ask, and got up to leave.
"I'm really bothering you today."
Han Lu was also a little puzzled. Although he didn't ask anything, what was going on with this natural feeling?
Chen Mo stood up: "You're welcome, I hope you can write this interview well so that players can experience my love for them."
Han Lu: "...bye."
Han Lu left Chen Mo's experience store and roughly read the contents of his shorthand.
Well, it looks like a lot of content, but in fact there is nothing...
However, this should be considered reasonable, Han Lu suddenly found that she seemed to be very open.
...
Three days later, the manuscript came out.
This manuscript basically faithfully describes what Chen Mo said in the interview. There is no artistic beautification or malicious ugliness. What Chen Mo said, Han Lu wrote it.
It's not that Han Lu doesn't want to beautify, it can't be beautified!
But what surprised Han Lu was that the editor-in-chief was quite satisfied with the draft. Soon, the draft was posted on the Skynet game channel with the title: “Interview with Chen Mo, the creator of Onmyoji: Earning money is just by the way. things".
There is a paragraph that says so.
"When the author asked, is there a unique secret to being the most profitable mobile game designer in China? Chen Mo replied: In fact, making games is not just for making money, making money is just an incidental thing. Making games It is to make players feel happy, to create value for the society, for art, and it is often a loss of money.”
After this article was published, it really caused a frenzy of complaints from players, and it was even forwarded to major forums, websites, and reprinted by many game media.
"It's here again! This cheating editor has raped my IQ with Chen Mo again!"
"Damn it! If I believed it, I would be a fool!"
"'Onmyoji' is more fair? You're not kidding me?"
"Upstairs, there's nothing wrong with what Chen Mo said. Anyway, it all depends on luck, it's fair 2333"
"Fuck, 18-month year-end bonus? Chen Mo is so rich, who knows the recruitment call of Lei Ting Mutual Entertainment? I'm going to sweep the floor for Chen Mo!"
"Upstairs, isn't it a rumor, it's a quarterly award."
"You're so rich, your mind explodes! How can you do this!"
"Chen Mo pays me back my hard-earned money!!"
"It's here again, use salary to create happiness! I've wanted to say it for a long time, this guy is still a jerk, don't look at his conscience when he made "Warcraft" and "Legend of Heroes", and the original form is revealed as soon as he makes a mobile game. It's gone!"
"Yes, I will only play Chen Mo's PC games in the future, and boycott Chen Mo's mobile games!"
"You two upstairs, can you have some snacks? Didn't you force Chen Mo to port the mobile game's operating model to the PC game?"
"Ah? Not really, right?"
"Stop talking,
If it is really transplanted, how can it be fixed! "
"Damn, earning money is just a matter of the way? Income 200 million a month by the way? I take it, why does this person feel uncomfortable all day without pretending to be forceful?"
"Make money by the way, Serent?"
"What did he lose, and we made a profit? Damn it, I just laughed out loud."
"The king of the game world is born!"
...
Other designers were stunned when they saw this interview.
"What the heck? Is this Chen Mo so inflated?"
"What does it mean to sincerely persuade everyone that the mobile card game market is so big that it can't squeeze other people?"
"Mom, what a big breath!"
"Do you really think that "Onmyoji" covers the sky with one hand, and you can do whatever you want with money?"
"I'm not convinced, I'll develop another card mobile game!"
"Don't, calm down, the current momentum of "Onmyoji", whoever hits who will die!"
"I'm so pissed!! This Chen Mo is too jumpy, can someone punish him!!"
"Who can sanction, even "Zhan Mo Jie 2" has not said a word!"
...
The entire mobile game circle was disturbed by "Onmyoji", but Chen Mo was quite happy.
In short, first enjoy the feeling of lying down and earning money.
But what troubles him is that the experience store has become more and more lively recently. Especially on the first floor, many players of "Onmyoji" came all the way here on purpose to worship Kagura and make a wish SSR, which made the experience store often full of people.
Moreover, Su Jinyu is also an assistant and a front desk, and it is indeed a bit too busy.
Before, Chen Mo's idea was to maintain a small team, mainly to develop small and medium-sized games, and accumulate funds. Because the communication efficiency of the small team is more efficient, and the exercise effect for the three assistants is also better.
However, with the popularity of "Warcraft" and the popularity of "Onmyoji", Chen Mo increasingly felt the urgency of increasing the number of staff and improving the working environment.
After all, having Zheng Hongxi and Qian Kun work in an environment surrounded by players every day is a bit tricky.
Moreover, after the explosive expansion of "Onmyoji", Chen Mo has a lot of money in his hands.
The cumulative sales of "Warcraft" so far has reached 5.7 million, and the total income brought to Chen Mo is about 630 million. "Onmyoji" has a monthly income of 260 million. UU reading www.uukanshu.com These two basically become Chen Mo. The bulk of Mo's income.
As for "The Legend of Heroes" and the previous games, the money earned is considered a drizzle, and Chen Mo basically doesn't care much.
Among these games, the research and development cost of "Warcraft" is the highest, plus the full set of CG added later, the cost is about more than 80 million, and the cost of "Onmyoji" is much lower, less than 20 million, and then deducted Aside from the publicity and promotion costs of these games, Chen Mo now has more than 700 million dollars on hand.
Of course, the money here is mainly earned by "Warcraft". At present, the development of "Warcraft" is not bad. Because various RPG maps are constantly updated, there is no obvious decline in subsequent sales. Of course, go to After that, sales will surely decline.
After all, this is an RTS game, there are naturally few players, and Lei Ting Mutual Entertainment’s influence overseas is limited, and its publicity and promotion simply cannot reach the level of Blizzard in the previous life, so the income is lower than its quality.
Fortunately, after the sales of "Warcraft" declined, "Onmyoji" could explode. Chen Mo estimated that the monthly turnover of Onmyoji next month should be even higher, and it is hoped that it will reach the level of 500 million to 600 million.
Chen Mo now has a lot of funds on hand. The average research and development funds for AAA masterpieces on the PC are about 40 million US dollars. From the perspective of money, Chen Mo has already done it.
As for VR games, the research and development cost of VR games is basically 10 times that of PCs. If you want to transplant 3A masterpieces to VR platforms, the cost will start at about 200 million US dollars, which is still a great risk for Chen Mo.
Now, Chen Mo's funds are relatively abundant, and the capabilities of the three assistants are relatively comprehensive. It is time to consider further expansion.
