Create a great era of e-sports

As early as the Jingzhou Cup, Zhang Yiming came to ask Mo Yu for advice after watching the game. When talking about GAG, Mo Yu said that GAG will become the most popular game in the world in the future. No game can compete with it and will win the championship. , suppress the current world.

At that time, Zhang Yiming thought that he was talking nonsense and scoffed at it, thinking that Mo Yu simply didn't know what to say and was too crazy.

Mo Yu was also young and energetic, so he came up with a bet like a joke.

The content is: Within three years, if the number of users of "Gods and Gods" can exceed 20 million within three years, and the maximum number of simultaneous online users exceeds 1.5 million, then Zhang Yiming will lose, but he will win!

After proposing the bet, Mo Yu came to his senses and told Zhang Yiming not to take it seriously.

As a result, Zhang Yiming lost his temper and actually complied.

After all, judging from the situation at the time, how could it be so easy for a game to have more than 20 million users?

At that time, World of Warcraft, which firmly held the top spot in the country, only had 7.7 million users, let alone more than 1.5 million online users!

It’s simply a fantasy!

To achieve such outrageous data, Zhang Yiming has never seen any game other than Legend that can achieve this.

As a result, it has been less than three years, and GAG has exceeded its goal. The total number of users has reached more than 30 million, and the daily active users are easily several million. The goal was achieved in one go.

When the news was released on GAG's official website, Zhang Yiming recognized it and made up his mind to resign.

This time I came to Jingzhou, not only to personally experience the feeling of watching the game at the Jingjie Center, but also to fulfill my promise.

"Mr. Mo, now that I have joined the company, what kind of work will you arrange for me?" Zhang Yiming asked.

Mo Yu smiled and said, "How about continuing to be a game designer?"

"Designer?" Zhang Yiming thought for a few seconds and nodded: "No problem. Making games is my old profession. What kind of game do you want me to make?"

When he spoke, he looked proud.

Zhang Yiming has been working in the game industry for more than 20 years, from a recent graduate to the chief designer of Tianxing, responsible for the development of many hit games. In this industry, Zhang Yiming can be said to be full of confidence.

Among the few failures, apart from the one he made just after graduation, the one that was most difficult for him to accept was the MOBA developed after GAG - "Battlefield"!

He played the same game, but in the end he lost completely in the war with GAG. His data was only a fraction of GAG's, which made him feel ashamed.

"As long as I don't continue to make MOBA games, I'm confident in any genre."

Zhang Yiming is extremely confident.

Unexpectedly, Mo Yu said: "What I want you to make is a MOBA!"

"???"

Zhang Yiming was stunned when he heard this and hesitated: "MOBA?"

"right!"

Mo Yu didn't hesitate.

"I can't!" Zhang Yiming immediately refused: "No one in the world can do as well as you in making MOBA games, right? A GAG Invincible World can be said to contain all the essence of MOBA games. There is no other game." Comparable.”

Before joining the fishing game, it was easy to say that I could still look at the problem with the attitude of looking at the enemy. I thought that no matter how good the enemy was, it was just illusory and a castle in the air. Sooner or later, it would fall through.

But now that he has joined the fishing game, he has instantly transformed into GAG’s loyal licking dog.

joke!

GAG is number one in the world, who dares not to admit it?

All kinds of data are laid out and thrown directly in your face. Even if you don’t recognize it, you have to accept it!

It is already ranked number one in the domestic rankings. In other countries, it is no less impressive. Even if it is not number one, it is still at the forefront of the local rankings.

Even with the influx of new users every day, the number of players is still continuing to rise. There is no stopping momentum at all, and there is a strong tendency to break through everything!

Mo Yu didn't expect that he could refuse so simply. After thinking about it, he said: "GAG is indeed very powerful, but I also have an idea for a very powerful MOBA game."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yiming said flatly: "Impossible!"

“GAG has already made a great MOBA game, there can’t be a better MOBA than it!”

“I think there is absolutely no need for the company to develop another MOBA game. Let’s not talk about whether it can be compared to GAG. Even if it is produced, it will compete with the company’s similar games, steal its own users, lose both sides, and let others laugh. It is not worth the gain. !”

Zhang Yiming couldn't help but said sincerely: "Mr. Mo, if you spend money to continue to make MOBA, it is a waste of money and is not conducive to the development of the company at all. But if we make MMORPG, then I am very confident. When I was at Tianxing, I took charge of the development I have created a number of 3DMMORPGs, and I can say that I have all the various gameplays at my fingertips. There is no obstacle. As long as you give people money, you can make an online game that is not inferior to any MMORPG in half a year at most. But if you want to make a MOBA.”

"Sorry, I'm not confident!"

Zhang Yiming shook his head.

He also told the truth without hiding anything.

Anyone familiar with his resume knows that when he was at Tianxing Games, he led the team to preside over the development of many 3D online games. Some of them have long since disappeared, but there are still a few that still have a lot of players and are at the top of the rankings. They are popular every year. Bringing considerable profits to Tianxing.

A game manufacturer once poached him and offered him a high annual salary plus dividends just to poach him back to make 3D online games.

As a result, Mo Yu now wants him to do MOBA, which in Zhang Yiming's opinion is simply a waste of resources and overuse of talents.

Zhang Yiming admonished: "Mr. Mo, you may not know that the three games developed by me - Mahakala, Blasphemy, and Mechanical Era - are still frequent visitors to the top of the rankings. Every year, I give Tianxing Games Bringing hundreds of millions of profits, but now you want me to do MOBA, it’s the wrong position!”

His attitude was extremely sincere, and in his words, he was truly thinking about Mo Yu.

Mo Yu heard this but said helplessly: "Money is certainly important, but what I want to do is not only make money, but also e-sports. MOBA is the most common type of e-sports event, and GAG covers a large group, but it does not Covering it all, there’s still room for MOBA game development out there waiting to be occupied.”

"And when it comes to making money, online games may not be the most profitable games. In a few years, that will be the era when you can make money with your eyes closed!"

Mo Yu is talking about the era of mobile games a few years from now.

In an era when mobile games are booming, except for a few PC games, which other games can compete with mobile games?

It’s easy to make tens of millions of dollars a month, and it’s not uncommon to make billions or tens of billions. Countless manufacturers, big and small, can make a lot of money just by relying on a mobile game.

The most important thing is that mobile game development is very simple.

As soon as some original games came out, other companies saw that they could make money, so they immediately changed the graphics, and then announced that it was a new game under the company's umbrella. However, there were always players who bought it, and they simply made money while lying down!

Zhang Yiming sneered twice and ignored him completely.

"We'll talk about the future later. Anyway, if you want me to do MOBA, you can do it! If you lose money if you don't do it well, just don't blame me!"

Anyway, it’s 3-0, so I can play! Only the all-Chinese class can defeat Da Fei, any Korean is unreliable! Damn it! Mad!
