Rebirth of the Evil Life

"World of Warcraft" is finally going to open beta!

Although I experienced a false alarm due to power outage. But in the end, "World of Warcraft" was released into public beta globally.

In 2004, at 9 a.m. on April 28, exactly on time, the login window of "World of Warcraft" lit up, indicating that players could log in to create gods!

"The server is open!" Players around the world who have been waiting for "World of Warcraft" for a long time shouted. They reacted immediately and pressed the left mouse button. According to some media surveys, at this moment, the instantaneous reaction speed of more than the first player to squeeze into "World of Warcraft" is 0.1 seconds, almost reaching the limit of the human body. Even the world's most famous "CS" professional players cannot compete with it. Compared to. For this miracle, I can only say that the game is crazy.

"Alas~~~, the living expenses are in ruins!" While major Internet cafes shouted for the launch of the service, many people couldn't help but sigh. You know, if the server cannot be opened on time today, then they can get 100 yuan in compensation, which is a lot of money for most people who surf the Internet in Internet cafes.

Unfortunately, the 100 yuan compensation is now gone. However, this only made some players who coveted a hundred yuan compensation be stunned for a moment, and then immediately clicked into the game and entered the magical world of "World of Warcraft".

"Boss. Within five minutes, the global online access rate of "World of Warcraft" reached 10 million!" Wu Zhaopu shouted in surprise.

In fact, even if Wu Zhaopu didn't scream, Lin Feng could see clearly. Since the "Second World" moved into the "Light of the Century", the world's tallest skyscraper, in order to stimulate competition between the sexes among the major game development departments, Lin Feng specially ordered people to install a giant stone in the company's leisure hall. The screen lists the global online rates of games developed by the top ten game development departments, and ranks them according to the number of people online. The current number one ranking is "Farm Frenzy", an upgraded version of this extremely simple farm-stealing game, which currently has more than 40 million online users worldwide.

Although compared with the global online rate of 40 million in "Farm", although the 10 million people in "World of Warcraft" are very impressive, there is still a big gap. But you must know that this is only 5 minutes. In 5 minutes, 10 million players around the world have entered "World of Warcraft", which has already broken the world record.

Ten minutes later, on the big screen, the number of online users of "World of Warcraft" had quietly jumped to third place, and the one above it was the 25 million people of "Virtual Life".

When Mike Mowaimi saw this number, he nodded with satisfaction.

Thirty minutes later, on the big screen, the number of online users of "World of Warcraft" exceeded 30 million, jumping to second place.

Everyone in the entire leisure hall was a little stunned.

There can be 30 million people online in thirty minutes. This is a quite terrifying number. You must know that for now, it is not the prime time of the game. Globally, the real prime time should start at 12 noon. At this time, the number of players worldwide will reach its peak. But now it's only 9:30, and there are actually 30 million players online. How many players will be online at 12 o'clock?

Everyone estimated a number and shook their heads when they thought about it. Is it possible that the number of online users of "World of Warcraft" on the first day will exceed that of "Farm Frenzy", which has always been the number one online player? Although "Farm Frenzy" is no longer as popular as it was at the beginning, with a crazy peak number of 6,500 online users, its average number of 40 million online users is still terrifying. Now, it seems that "World of Warcraft" is even scarier. Its momentum is too fierce!

Looking at the growing number of people online, Mike Mowaimi finally couldn't help but grin and smiled proudly. During this period, "World of Warcraft" has been delayed, which has put it under a lot of pressure. After all, other game departments have achieved good results. It can be said that the ability to make money alone is definitely not the same as any of their predecessors "Blizzard" The game is bad. If that's the case, why can you, Blizzard, keep putting off developing games? There's no reason!

Now, "World of Warcraft" has more than 30 million people online in 30 minutes, which is enough for Mike Mowaimi to straighten his back and tell everyone loudly. His delay was all worth it!

"Boss, do you think "World of Warcraft" can surpass the peak number of 65 million online users once created by "Farm Frenzy"?" Wu Zhaopu whispered in Lin Feng's ear.

Lin Feng thought for a while and nodded. In Lin Feng's opinion, this is certain. There are now 30 million people, so it will definitely not be a problem to break 40 million by 12 o'clock, and in the evening, when my birthday party really starts, it will not be a problem to break 65 million. You must know that "World of Warcraft" currently has more than 600 million players, and many of them are here for tonight's birthday party. If you want to get a ticket for tonight's birthday party, you must play an "admission ticket" in the game. The drop rate of this "admission ticket" is less than 0.1%, and there are only 10,000 in the world. Zhang, which means that the system will only drop 10,000 "admission tickets", and they will no longer drop once the amount is full.

But for now, there are 30 million players, and the ratio is 3,000 to 1. If you want to get the "ticket", players must get it earlier than other players. If you want to get it earlier, you must enter the game and fight monsters in advance. . Under such comparison, it is not difficult to break through 65 million people.

Just as Lin Feng was speaking, a player revealed the first "ticket".

"Haha, 'ticket', 'ticket', I typed 'ticket', haha, tonight I can become a god and attend Lin Feng's birthday party, and communicate face-to-face with the world's richest people. Haha, I will definitely I want to ask Lin Feng when he will be able to launch those Xianxia online games in China!" The lucky player who was the first to play the "admission ticket" shouted in the Internet cafe.

"You're so fucking lucky. Come on, show me, what is this 'ticket'?" Someone immediately came over.

"Hey, look, it's sparkling. It's a good thing at first glance. Hey, it said there are only 10,000 tickets in the world, haha~~~" The lucky player called up the "ticket" and showed it off to others.

"Hey, brother, which district are you in? Is this 'admission ticket' for sale?" A sharp-eyed person saw the word "tradable" on the "admission ticket" and immediately rushed forward.

"Sell?" The lucky player also saw the word "tradable" on it at this moment, thought about it, and shook his head.

"Brother, do you want an 'admission ticket' soon? I'll give you 10 yuan and you can sell it to me. Look, you can make a god and surf the Internet for 5 hours!" The man wanted to buy it. The player who wants the "admission ticket" takes out 10 yuan.

"No! I only want to buy the opportunity to communicate face-to-face with Lin Feng, the world's richest man, for only 10 yuan. I'm not that stupid!" The lucky player's eyes only warmed up slightly, and he firmly gave up this unattractive temptation.

"Brother, that 20 yuan!" The player bid again.

"Brother, I'll pay 30 yuan!" At this time, another player suddenly came in.

"Hey, buddy, I made the bid first, you don't want to play like this." The man from before suddenly stopped complying.

"Hey, buddy. The one with the highest bid gets it. I can sell it to whoever this brother is willing to sell!" The last bidder said with a smile.

"You want to cause trouble, don't you? Okay, I'll pay 50 yuan!" shouted the previous bidder.

"Hmph, it's only 50 yuan, I'll pay 70 yuan!" The person who made the last bid looked disdainful and immediately added more.

The lucky player looked to the left for a while, then to the right, watching the two people shouting wildly. In just three minutes, the "ticket" in this game was sold to 210. Yuan Zhihuang.

"I'll sell it, I'll sell it to you for 210 yuan!" the lucky player said tremblingly, pointing at the player who made the last bid and was the final winner.

Wow! There was a commotion in the Internet cafe. Buying an "admission ticket" for 210 yuan is too exaggerated! Although the equipment in other games often costs thousands or tens of thousands, after all, this is just a ticket for a birthday party. Is it worth 210 yuan?

Everyone looked at the lucky player who was holding a 210-yuan bill with an excited face and yelled at the network administrator to give him a Coke. Then they looked at the player who bid 210 yuan. They felt that the world was really crazy.

spendthrift! ——The player who just didn't get this "ticket" because he was short of money cursed in a low voice angrily.

Yes, he is indeed a prodigal. The players watching the show looked at the player who paid 210 yuan to buy an "admission ticket" with the same hatred.

spendthrift? ——The player who bid 210 yuan for the "admission ticket" snorted disdainfully.

"You know nothing, you are short-sighted. You have to know whose birthday party this is. This is the birthday party of Lin Feng, the richest man in the world, and there are also Lin Feng's rich friends appearing in the game. Since Lin Feng is in the game If 10,000 tickets are issued to allow players to celebrate their birthdays together, then there will definitely be generous gifts in return. For 210 yuan, I think 2,100 yuan may not be enough to buy a gift from Lin Feng, let alone celebrate with many rich people in the world. This is something money can't buy." - The player who bought the "admission ticket" for 210 yuan said proudly.

Boom! These words were undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, hitting everyone's hearts hard. Yes, Lin Feng has always been generous in his dealings. This time, on his birthday, he will not be stingy. A mere 210 yuan is really nothing? No, I also want to attend this birthday party.

In an instant, all the players who were talking about it stopped talking at the same time and began to frantically fight monsters and explode things in the game, just for the legendary "ticket." And that person just now proudly sold the "admission ticket" for 210 yuan. Players who felt they had made a huge profit were immediately dumbfounded.
