Build a game empire from scratch

"Someone is logging into the game abroad?" Lin You blinked, he was also a little surprised.

In fact, he had guessed that sporadic pieces of equipment had been shipped out of the country.

Because all the mirages produced by him, as long as they are activated and logged in by someone in China, Xiaomeng can track them.

Most of the mirages will be activated within two or three days after leaving the factory, and then bound to the player's Yunmeng account, officially included in Xiaomeng's statistical category.

A few that have been delayed for a long time will also be activated within a week.

After all, Lin You uploads new products so frequently, every week there will be a batch of new products, and more and more each time.

Even if it is a second-hand dealer, it has to be sold as soon as possible, otherwise it will reach a critical point when the mainframe will no longer be scarce, and there will be no profit at all.

But in such an environment, there are still some hosts that have not been activated.

So Lin You guessed that these devices might have been shipped out of the country.

Because the network infrastructure of each big country is developed independently, although it is already connected, there are always invisible restrictions.

On the basis that there is no springboard server in foreign countries, Xiaomeng's ability to play will also be limited. Now it can only collect and analyze public information, and it is impossible to try to track these devices.

Lin You didn't know whether these devices were bought by fanatical foreign players to play games, or whether they were disassembled and reverse engineered by some unknown companies or organizations, trying to crack them.

When Lin You was producing "Journeyman", he lacked experience, and he only wanted to finish it quickly, and he didn't think too much, which inevitably left loopholes.

——If the device cannot be linked by Xiaomeng after it is started, "Journeyman" can be played on a stand-alone without networking.

It's just that it will be a real lonely journey, and you won't meet other strangers, and you won't be able to see the shooting stars of other people's clearance.

After I have worked so hard to clear the level, the shooting star I turned into cannot be reflected in the eyes of thousands of other players.

——This is something that domestic players try their best to avoid. In China, almost no players play "Journeyman" without being connected to the Internet.

However, in foreign countries, if Yunmeng wants to set up a server, it needs to apply for a special license - foreign companies want to set up a server in Daxia, and they also need to obtain a special license.

Naturally, Lin You didn't do that, it's still the same sentence - wait for the mirage to meet the domestic market demand.

Therefore, if foreign players want to play Yunmeng games online, they need to use special technical means-and such means require a lot of technical skills and are expensive.

Therefore, Lin You guessed that even if there are people living abroad, no matter if they are foreigners or overseas students of Xia descent, even if they bought Mirage, they are likely to play "Journeyman" alone.

Now that "League of Assassins" has to be verified online, foreign players don't have to work hard to link to Yunmeng across the country.

"Let him in." Lin You didn't reject this player. In a sense, he was definitely a loyal player.

And because of the existence of Xiaomeng, the game is originally a multilingual version, which will automatically adapt to the player's customary language.

Even because the city environment of the game is more Western-style in the mix of Chinese and Western, foreign players may still be more familiar with it.

——After all, gunfights, hooligans, gun shops, killers, these elements really cannot be put into the social environment of Daxia, it is too inconsistent!

At first, in order to make domestic players more comfortable to play, Xiaochun led the art girls to spend a lot of energy on signs, slogans, signs, etc. where words appear, so that the characters of Daxia and English letters are very harmonious. coexist together.

"By the way, help me cast his game screen, I'll see what this player looks like."

"Okay! Leave it to Xiaomeng!" Xiaomeng stretched out her hand and made a movement of pushing the door.

In front of Lin You, a picture appeared at the same time. In the picture, on an infinite stretch of still water, stood a man wearing black-rimmed glasses and a bushy beard.

——Different from traditional games, when you log in to the interface in traditional games, the server has not received your information, and you have to log in.

But Mirage will be included in the link as long as you start networking.

"By the way!" Lin You suddenly thought of another question: "What's his registered name? And how did he pass the real-name authentication? We don't have any foreigner's identity registration data?"

"Hey." Xiaomeng said with a smile, "Because the master is too kind! So there are loopholes in the authentication process set up, as long as the authenticity of the information cannot be verified due to our reasons, it will be successful by default."

"In addition, this person's registered name is Andrew!" Xiaomeng added, "It should be true information. Xiaomeng knows him. He is a foreign anchor, a very small one!"

"That's it." Lin You thought for a while, let's keep this loophole for now, since there is no harm anyway.

There is Xiaomeng watching in China, players can't fake it, and most people abroad can't buy equipment, so they can only buy games and give him money.

So why refuse someone to send you money?

The bearded player in the picture, making it difficult to guess his age, also began to decorate his virtual house.

Lin You looked a little bored.

Because there are no servers in foreign countries, and only one person is connected to foreign players, the advanced distributed biocomputing technology cannot be used, and the delay for this player to play is not low.

After entering the world of "League of Assassins", it would be better to lower the network requirements.

But the virtual house he is setting up now will be stored forever, and every step will be synchronized to the cloud, so Lin You watched the player build the house with a very high delay, and his blood pressure kept rising.

He looked away at Xiaomeng, and suddenly remembered something, "Xiaomeng, how many accounts does Yunmeng have registered by foreign players?"

Xiaomeng was in a daze for a moment, and got the data: "127,185 people!"

"Then how many of them have purchased "League of Assassins"?"

"91,658 people!"

ah this...

Lin You was very surprised. He did expect that foreign players would buy games and send him money, but he never expected that there would be so many people!

There should be no more than 100 Mirage game consoles that have been transferred to foreign countries. There are more than 90,000 people who bought the game without thinking about it!

Lin You really didn't know what they were thinking, he could only say that it was outrageous that his mother opened the door for Outrageous - Outrageous is at home!

But he quickly thought of another question: "Xiaomeng, how many players in China have not bought a console, but have already bought games?"

"Xiaomeng wants to take a look!" Xiaomeng paused for a moment, and quickly said: "Master, there are already more than 640,000 people!"

"Ah, this..." Lin You didn't know what to say. Are you in such a hurry to send me money?

640,000 people, 500 yuan for a game, so the total is——

320 million!

This... Lin You felt that he had to do something, otherwise he would be really sorry for the money these people paid.

He took out his phone and started editing Lingxi's dynamics.

At this time, Xiaomeng gently pushed his shoulder, "Master, he seems to have given up on furnishing the house and chose to enter the game."

"Okay, wait a minute."

Lin You hurriedly finished writing Lingxi's news, then simply cut out a picture and sent it out with text.

"Thank you guys for your rewards!

But please spend wisely. "

The picture is the picture of the protagonist breaking through the window in the promotional film, and a set of sales data is written in the blank space of the picture:

"As of now, 640,000 people have purchased "League of Assassins" without a host!"
