Metropolis: I’m Really Not A Prodigal Son

Why did Jia Shoufu call this idea crazy?

Because the idea is called fighting fire with fire.

Aren’t the two games Legend and Miracle popular?

Jia Shoufu wants to buy more games and add them to the mouse game platform.

Because there are only so many gamers out there.

Having one more game is equivalent to dividing the crowd.

But with one more game in Mouse Game, a large part of the cost will be added.

Including labor, servers, etc.

Wouldn't this indirectly cause losses?

Jia Shoufu suddenly thought that stand-alone games could also be placed on the mouse game platform.

It has built-in archiving, online and other functions, and can also be dispersed to wave players.

For example, "Diablo 2" by Storm Company is a very classic game.

It can be played online or stand-alone, and there are also shooting games such as the famous "CSS Life".

Jia Shoufu was determined and called Chang Shengyang to the office.

"The Mouse gaming platform should be upgraded."

Chang Shengyang was stunned, "Upgrade? Mr. Jia, what do you mean?"

"After the upgrade, it will be divided into two areas: stand-alone and online game 09."

Chang Shengyang asked: "Mr. Jia, I can understand the agency for online games, but why do you even want a single-player area?"

Because many stand-alone games in China are now cracked.

You can play it by downloading it for free from many websites.

Mr. Jia's purchase of stand-alone games is a waste of money.

Before Jia Shoufu could speak, Chang Shengyang suddenly understood.

"Mr. Jia, do you want to buy those stand-alone games that can be played online?"

Because there are many players playing such games now, and they basically play them on the LAN of Internet cafes.

It is almost impossible to compete with others on the Internet.

Jia Shoufu nodded and said: "You are only half right."

"You need to buy online games, and you can also buy games that don't require online play."

"Of course to differentiate it from other platforms."

"You could get some achievement badges or something."

"For example, in the game, for how many enemies you kill, you can get corresponding medals."

Chang Shengyang listened a little confused.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Mr. Jia, what you mean is that all stand-alone games."

"We can all buy them and put them on the Mouse Platform."

"Then we will design some achievement systems so that players can complete the game once they reach it."

"This achievement system can be in the game or on the platform."

Jia Shoufu said approvingly: "Yes, that's what I mean."

Chang Shengyang said: "Mr. Jia, we have purchased so many stand-alone games, are they free for players to play, or are they charged?"

Jia Shoufu originally wanted to make it free.

As soon as the idea came up, it was rejected by the system.

Obviously, the system cannot allow this purely free method.

“There is a fee, but it can be free for a limited time, or you can set a discount.

"For example, get a 10% discount, or several discounts."

Chang Shengyang asked: "Would the game manufacturers disagree?"

"You can buy the Chinese copyright of the game, and then we can set the price freely."

"Mr. Jia, then this is a pure loss-making business, because these games are pirated.

"Who would spend money to support the genuine version? Even if they have those achievement systems, they are of no use.

Jia Shoufu was stunned. Previously, she had just thought of buying stand-alone games to distract players.

Why didn't I expect that piracy is rampant in China, and I will definitely lose money if I buy a stand-alone game.

This is a great opportunity!

Unexpectedly, Chang Shengyang would also give good advice.

"Buy, I will give you 100 million US dollars, and everyone at home and abroad will buy those anti-game masterpieces.

Chang Shengyang was immediately dumbfounded.

Is Mr. Jia crazy for spending 100 million US dollars to buy games?

“Can the money be used to represent new games?”

Jia Shoufu said nonchalantly: "Anything is fine, but I want you to complete the upgrade of the mouse game platform within four months."

Chang Shengyang suddenly felt pressure rushing towards him.

The completion of the platform upgrade means that it will take four months to fill up the game library.

"Mr. Jia, isn't the time a bit short?"

Jia Shoufu asked, "How about I only give you three months?"

Jia Shoufu understood what Mr. Jia meant, "Four months is enough, that's enough!"

Then Chang Shengyang immediately left Mr. Jia's office.

For four months, the company is still not allowed to work overtime, which is a mouse game.

But it's a very serious task.

He must put this matter on the agenda immediately.

Buy games when it’s time to buy games, and development platforms when it’s time to buy games.

Next it’s Tiger 360’s turn.

He briefly chatted with Xu Liang for a while.

I am still very satisfied with the current situation of Tiger 360 Company.

Because there is only his department, there is no prospect of making money at all.

The main job now is to provide good logistics for Penguin Technology, Yak Search, Mouse Game and Rabbit Payment.

While responsible for the security of these subsidiaries online, they also carry out physical attacks offline.

At the same time, Tiger 360 also has the highest salary among all subsidiaries.

The reason is very simple. Most of China's network experts have been recruited by Tiger 360.

As for Dawei Tianlong's Lao Huang, Jia Shoufu was really surprised.

He never expected that he would be a second-rate dealer.

Unexpectedly, he was able to lead the powerful Tianlong, Shi Yiqu and Taobao Kai dismounted.

After calling him to the office, Jia Shoufu asked him in detail.

How he convinced the bank to cooperate with Rabbit Payment.

When Lao Huang said that it was mainly his own contribution, Jia Shoufu was shocked.

Jia Shoufu saw Lao Huang looking at him with admiring eyes.

I really want to tell him that it's just a beautiful misunderstanding.

When I first created Anti-Addiction, I just wanted to reduce some income from mouse games.

I didn't expect to be honored.

Of course, these words can only be hidden in my heart, because even if I say them, Lao Huang won't believe them.

Jia Shoufu gave him another US$50 million.

Continue to advertise Dawei Tianlong.

The reason is very simple, Yiqu and Taobao still exist.

Therefore, we must continue to seize the market.

Jia Shoufu roughly learned about all the subsidiaries.

Suddenly I realized that the size of the company is now much larger than before.

It seems not so suitable to rent this office building.

How about building an animal group industrial park?

Bringing all subsidiaries together?

You can ask the secretary to communicate with the relevant departments.

See if we can get a piece of land approved or something.

Just as he was thinking about the building, the secretary walked in and said: "Mr. Jia, I have made an appointment for you with Wang Zhongkui.

"When is it convenient for you?"

Jia Shoufu asked: "When will he be here soon?"

"tomorrow morning."

"Okay, let's make an appointment tomorrow morning.

Wang Zhongkui was coming, and Shoudang was really a little excited.

If Wang Zhongkui agreed to cooperate, he would even think of a name, and it would be called Antelope Culture. .
