Chapter 71: It's over, Do You Want to Go Back to the Furnace?
"My crush is an unparalleled hero. One day he will step on a seven-colored cloud to marry me. I guessed the beginning but I can't guess the ending."
"I once had a sincere love in front of me. I didn't cherish it. When I lost it, I regretted it. The most painful thing in the world is this. If God can give me a chance to do it again, I will Say three words to that girl: I love you. If you have to add a deadline to this love, I hope it is... 10,000 years."
"Look, that man looks like a dog."
Some people in later generations commented, why did the big talk about Journey to the West hit the streets back then?
A lot of people said that the plot might be too complicated.
But more people will say that the big talk about Journey to the West is too advanced.
That being the case, in 1995, the big story "Journey to the West" was broadcast on the street.
Then, in 2001's Westward Journey, let's go back and watch this movie.
He has become a classic in the hearts of countless people.
If it wasn't for this post, maybe many people would have forgotten about this movie.
When this article appeared, Dahua Westward Journey completely detonated the Internet.
"I can't love you with the golden hoop, and I can't save you without the golden hoop. When I was Sun Wukong, I could protect you but I couldn't love you. If you want to save Zixia, you must defeat the Bull Demon King. You must become Monkey King, and if you want to become Monkey King, you must cut off the seven emotions and put on a golden hoop, which is probably the saddest time in the world."
"I re-read the big story Journey to the West, and I cried."
"I cried too."
In the ears of countless audiences, at this moment only the ending song of Journey to the West echoed.
【Before, now, past, never again
Red, fallen leaves, long buried, in the dust
Begin and end always, never change
You are floating in the sky, outside the white clouds
bitter sea, turn up love and hate
In this world, it is hard to escape fate
Blind date, it is impossible, close
Or should I, believe, be fate...]
...
"Xu Bo, you're right. For the sake of the future of Journey to the West, I agree to return this time."
After a week of thinking, in the end, Ding Lei made up his mind and was ready to redo the story of Journey to the West.
However, when Ding Lei called Xu Bo to the office to announce the decision, Xu Bo's face was a little weird.
"Xu Bo, do you have anything to say?"
"this……"
"What this or that, if you have something to say, say it quickly."
"Mr. Ding, I don't know if I should go back to the furnace now."
There was some collapse in his heart, Xu Bo said weakly.
"What's the meaning?"
Ding Lei looked at Xu Bo: "Do you mean to persist?"
"this……"
"What?"
Ding Lei was a little angry: "In the beginning, you said that it was you who persisted. Later, you said that it was you who came back. Now you say that you persist..."
He felt that Xu Bo was a little unreliable.
Regardless of his ability, he was too hesitant to make a specific decision.
It might be fine if it's just a technician, but if you give him full power to run a project, it must be a big deal.
"Mr. Ding, you misunderstood."
Probably also aware of Ding Lei's evaluation of himself at this moment, Xu Bo hurriedly explained: "Mr. Ding, the main reason is that the number of people online at the same time as we talked about Journey to the West recently hit a new high."
"what?"
Ding Lei was stunned: "Has it hit a new high again?"
Didn't you say bottle shank?
Isn't that a lot of bugs in the game?
Isn't it about career imbalance?
"How many have been created?"
"40000?"
"no."
"Is it still possible to reach 50,000?"
"no.
"
"How much?"
"100,000."
After reporting this number, Xu Bo was also a little uneasy.
You know, he has been frightened in recent days.
Almost every hour, even every minute, Dahua Westward Journey is constantly hitting new highs.
Originally, he thought it was a bug, and the data was wrong.
But it was later detected that there was no error in the data, and these were all real players.
"100,000?"
Ding Lei was also intimidated by the number of people online at the same time.
100,000.
What is the concept of 100,000?
The most popular legend at present is only about 150,000.
Of course, if only that was the case.
Dahua Westward Journey is billed by point card, 4 points per hour, and 1 cent per point.
That is to say, it takes 4 cents to play a big talk about Journey to the West for an hour.
If it is 100,000 online at the same time, then 24 hours is about 10 yuan, and the daily turnover will reach 1 million.
In a month, that would be 30 million.
In one year, it is more than 300 million.
Why the game is so profitable, you can figure it out.
"You are joking?"
"Mr. Ding, I'm not kidding, this is the real data."
With that said, Xu Bo handed Ding Lei the monitoring form of the number of people online at the same time in the background.
"I have to look backstage."
"Mr. Ding, please come with me."
Although the contents of the form were true, Ding Lei still had some doubts.
If this is a big story, Westward Journey can really break 100,000 simultaneous online, then they will be released by NetEase.
"Mr. Ding, this is our background database."
"Look, our concurrent online users exceeded the high value of 100,000 before. However, there are many players below level 7, and there are still some who are not charged at present. If the real charge is made, it may be slightly lower than 100,000."
"But even so, we expect that most people will continue to play after level 7."
Dahua Westward Journey level 7 was free of charge before.
Facing the background database, Xu Bo introduced to Ding Lei.
"Okay, great, Xu Bo, well done."
Grabbing his fist, even Ding Lei, who had seen big money, was extremely excited.
It seems that the game route is the right one.
If it is calculated on such a scale, this game alone, excluding development costs, operating costs, and promotion costs, can earn them hundreds of millions a year.
"Xie Ding always praised, but in fact this is not my credit."
"Oh?"
"It was promoted by a game website company we cooperated with."
Xu Bo spoke out about the story of "Journey to the West: Love You Ten Thousand Years" that 5173 has been hyping on the Internet in recent days.
After hearing it, Ding Lei greatly appreciated the 5173.
"Xu Bo, you did a good job. Although the 5173 has played a major role in promotion, you are responsible for the entire operation, and you have a share in it."
"Mr. Xie Ding. Can we return to our game?"
"This is..."
Saying this, Ding Lei also had a headache.
For the sake of the future, Ding Lei himself has made a decision to return to the furnace.
But now there are more than 100,000 people online at the same time. If this is restored, it will not be scolded to death.
"In this way, operate first, and I will draw most of the technicians to solve most of the bugs in the game for you."
"As for the career imbalance you mentioned, although it can't be solved at once, as long as we have enough technical personnel, we can completely transform while operating."
"In the future, we will also be ready to launch a new version of Dahua Westward Journey. Once the latest version of Dahua Westward Journey comes out, then we will transfer the current Dahua Westward Journey."
"Transfer... Ding, this is a good idea."
Xu Bo also applauded.
Such an arrangement can solve all kinds of bugs in Westward Journey, and secondly, it can maintain its current popularity.
Of course, this is easy to say, and the price is certainly not small.
But Xu Bo could see that Ding Lei was ready to focus on the Westward Journey.
"By the way, that 5173 is very good. Although it is only a game website, its promotion experience is really good. Ask them, do you want to join NetEase?"
"You mean acquisition?"
"If they want. Of course, if they don't. But we have to have a good relationship with them."
"Don't worry, Mr. Ding, the person in charge of 5173 is very interesting and I appreciate it very much. We have cooperated very happily during this period of time. In addition, we still have 800,000 promotion fees to him."
"Only spent 800,000 promotion fees?"
"In addition to the advance of 200,000, the total is 1 million."
"One million is not much, so give them two million later."
Ding Lei, who had seen a lot of money, didn't put 1 million in his eyes at all, and said very proudly.
"The financial aspect?"
"Just say what I said."
"Yes."
Xu Bo nodded excitedly.
