Chapter 186 I Listen to You
This evening, Li Mu and Li Yawei ran around the National People's Congress. They searched several Internet cafes but couldn't find a machine. Every Internet cafe was full, and there were many people waiting in line to start the night at ten o'clock.
In the end, the two found a small Internet cafe with more than ten dilapidated machines in a small alley two kilometers away from the National People's Congress, and played hard until one o'clock in the morning in the dirty environment.
Li Mu mainly wanted to see how popular Legend is now. Now not only are more than half of the people playing this game in the Internet cafes, but the players in the same region and server are also very popular. Li Mu has trained a novice account. It takes a long time to kill a chicken and slaughter a deer. Because there are too many people, the update speed of chickens and deer is far less than the extinction speed of a large group of novices.
Li Yawei's level is a little higher. Now that he has nothing to do, he is digging in the zombie hole by the way, and there are many people who are mining. Sometimes there are people who are mining along the zombie hole.
In addition to the safe zone, there are constant PKs everywhere in the game. There are small-scale team battles. Some people try to grab resources and explode equipment. Some people simply PK for PK. The pk mode of the game is too simple and too direct. To see who is not pleasing to the eye, just go to the **** directly. From the point of view of people's original impulses, the setting of this game is indeed quite enjoyable.
Li Mu was hacked to death by a guy who was one level higher than himself and held an ebony sword for robbing a deer. He went back after resurrection, and was killed by another magician with a fireball when he got there, but he was not angry, mainly because of the program From the perspective of a member, let’s experience the most primitive legend of blood, and also study plug-ins by the way.
The charging plug-in is still in the legal gap in the next two or three years. It is conservatively estimated that there are at least two years of legal life cycle, and plug-in is to make quick money in a short period of time. This kind of business that quickly replenishes cash flow must still be done. However, Li Mu was also more cautious. Now I not only have 3321, but also Makino Technology. I can't come forward when I do plug-ins, and it is most suitable for Zhao Kang to do it.
Let Zhao Kang do it. Li Mu will also not let him take legal risks. He still remembers the time point when the plug-in was criminalized. As long as the notice on the implementation of the special governance of "private servers" and "plug-ins" on January 1, 2004 is officially implemented, it will basically be There is little risk, let alone. Li Mu wasn't going to do it at that time either. It would be a year sooner, or two years later. Even if he gave all the income from the whole country to himself, he would be disdainful.
Although Li Mu only has a million in his pocket now, he definitely has this confidence.
Seeing that Li Mu was being killed in the wild, Li Yawei couldn't help but say, "Brother Mu, come to the mine to find me, I'm not going to mine anymore. Team up to take you to fight zombies."
Li Mu smiled and said, "You better dig your mine first, I'll just play around and get acquainted with it."
One o'clock,
If it wasn't for Li Mu's departure, Li Yawei, who was addicted and fascinated, would like to be able to stay all night long.
On the way to school, Li Yawei was still sighing excitedly: "This game is really cool! Unfortunately, I know it's too late, many high-level players in the district came in just after the server started. Look at the high-level players. Is the samurai equipped yet? The God of War armor is a cool mess, and that purgatory, my God. When will I have that fate!"
Li Mu thought about the same mentality as Li Yawei when he played Legends in his freshman year in his last life. Every day he was thinking about when he could upgrade to another level, when he could get a new piece of equipment, learn a new skill, and more. The attraction of legend is universal in this era and has a huge influence.
When he got to the bedroom, Li Yayi was thinking about the legend at night, and Li Mu, who was sleeping in his lower bunk, was the same.
Li Mu felt that it was time to start developing a commercial version of the legendary plug-in.
The next morning. Li Mu and Zhao Kang made an appointment to meet at Yucheng Garden, and told Zhao Kang that he was going to engage in a legendary plug-in.
When Zhao Kang heard that Li Mu was ready to start, he immediately said excitedly: "I've been following the game Legend recently, it's really hot, almost everyone in our class has an account number, and more than half of them get it every day. Go and play, and every player will use our Legend Overlord 0, although the Legend has not yet charged, but I think now a powerful plug-in, there should also be a market potential for charging."
Li Mu nodded and said, "While other plug-in studios haven't started, I'll quickly develop a commercial plug-in recently."
Zhao Kang immediately said: "After you developed the plug-in this time, just tell me if you have anything to do. You explained the plug-in to me before. I still remember the metaphor you said about selling ecstasy in the disco. Will something break the law sooner or later?"
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "It may be written into laws and regulations in the future, but not yet, but this thing is disgraceful after all."
Zhao Kang then said: "Let me do it, you are so famous now, you can't be contaminated with negative news."
Li Mu said: "It's better to be a little more cautious, so you don't come forward directly, especially money, you must not use your real-name account to collect money, then let your team find agents in offline Internet cafes in various places, monthly As soon as the money arrives, it will be withdrawn immediately, and the first half of 2003 will be completed at the most. From the second half of 2003, we will never touch the plug-in business again.”
Half a year before the relevant laws and regulations were promulgated by the state, Li Mu was absolutely sure that there would be no more legal involvement. Should he eat a piece of big fat or he will eat it.
Zhao Kang didn't understand why Li Mu put the plug-in business in the first half of 2003, but he didn't ask in detail. He has been working with Li Mu since the college entrance examination, and he has 110,000 trust in Li Mu.
Li Mu said: "I have recently started to develop, and strive to be online before the end of the month, but this time we have to do plug-in sales ourselves, so we must have our own verification server."
Zhao Kang asked: "How does this process work? The last time we sold add-ons, we sold them in one package to the two guys in Yanjing. I don't know the logic and process of the monthly fee."
Li Mu smiled and said: "The logic is nothing more than the activation code. After the plug-in is developed, its function is locked by a set of verification procedures. This is a necessary part of commercial plug-ins. Otherwise, if you only sell the installation package, you will be a fool. Now, because someone else took your installation package, he can also sell it to other people, so no one with brains will do this.
But when it comes to verification logic, the most appropriate thing is that we build a server dedicated to verification, and then I design a set of activation code generation logic here to randomly generate a large number of long and complicated activation codes in batches, and then give the activation codes to the dealer. , sold to users by them, users open our plug-in, register a fixed account, and then enter the activation code to activate the plug-in. Each activation code can activate a one-month use period, and the function will be automatically closed after expiration. Until he buys the activation code again to activate. "
After a little thought, Zhao Kang understood the logic and asked Li Mu, "Will the user try to crack our activation code?"
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "As long as it's an online program, it can't be cracked. The most direct way to crack a password is the exhaustive method. No matter how long or complicated your password is, it's just a combination of letters and numbers. , I can definitely try it out one by one, but it’s just a matter of time. If I imitate the method of a big company like Microsoft and encrypt it with 20 letters and numbers, then the possibility of combination is estimated to be If there are more than one billion, and I will sell several million activation codes in total, it is amazing, and if several million are counted in one billion times, the probability is so slim that it can be zero."
After he said that, Li Mu smiled again, and the popular science said: "This kind of exhaustive method is actually very easy to prevent. If you don't set a limit on it, an ordinary home computer can repeatedly test tens of thousands of combinations in one second, but if you don't set a limit on it, You can restrict him a little. For example, after the verification fails, you are not allowed to submit again within one minute, then the other party will immediately become miserable. The remaining possibility is that the hacker has cracked it, but this is basically impossible. A powerful hacker would not be interested in such things."
Zhao Kang nodded lightly and sighed: "You know a lot, and I can understand a general idea. Anyway, we will only sell this kind of virtual activation code to the dealer, and then record that he sold a total of How many will do, right?"
"That's right, it's very simple. You take the time to find a server hosting company in the past two days. Now that server hosting does not require real-name registration, you should try to find those computer rooms with the most sparse management."
"Ok!"
Li Mu said: "This time we operate the net income of the legendary plug-in, you are three and I are seven."
Zhao Kang blurted out: "It's the same as last time, what I can do is limited."
Li Mu waved his hand: "This time I'm in charge of all the development, subsequent version updates, and other behind-the-scenes work. The distribution and payment of plug-ins mainly depend on you, so this ratio is so fixed. Many, even if we are brothers, we still have to settle accounts when we encounter money-related matters. Only in this way can we go on for a long time. In addition, if you want to choose people around you to help you, you must be careful when choosing people. some."
Zhao Kang hesitated for a moment, then nodded lightly.
Li Mu remembered the Douban incident and said: "By the way, we will go to Muye Technology at noon on Monday, the contract template is ready, we will sign the contract on Monday, Douban will officially be wholly-owned by Muye Technology, and you will use Douban to exchange 500,000 cash and 5 million from Muye. % of the shares.
But brother, I have to make it clear first. Except for the shares that Baidu and Song Liang invested in cash, the other options I gave, whether the replacement shares of Douban, were all held by me personally. There are certain constraints on the above. As for the reason why I hold it on behalf of me, it is mainly because there will be many rounds of financing in the future. Each financing is a dilution of the shares, so I have to guarantee my right to speak, but you can rest assured At the same time, everyone is equally diluted. "
Zhao Kang said without hesitation: "I will listen to you." (To be continued.)
ps: I won't sing for the third watch today, not counting the one in the early morning, this chapter is the first one.
