129 Gaming Platforms

Theoretically, the game [Temple Escape] is enough to cover most game users, and the same is true for female users. [Zhilong Mystery], which has a particularly strong ability to attract money, should use its ability to attract money to bring enough funds to the future development of the entire Toutiao company.

As Zhou Yujie explained the logical gameplay of [Zhilong Mystery City] clearly and also knew that the concept of the Three Kingdoms needs to be introduced in China, Zhang Yidong thought about it and said: "Mr. Zhou, according to what he said, the development of this game will take about a month."

"Well, you form a team, and you have worked hard during this period. Working overtime to make this game will not be less bonus later. [Temple Escape] can indeed make a lot of profits, which may be enough for the daily operations of Toutiao or AppTreasures, but it is not enough to continue to burn money." Zhou Yujie said.

In the current Internet industry, various applications are gradually emerging. If netizens want to know about an APP, they have to do enough advertising. Toutiao will soon usher in a big trouble, and it needs enough funds to solve this problem.

"No problem, Mr. Zhou, don't worry. I will lead the team myself, and more than a dozen people can handle it." Zhang Yidong said with a smile. He didn't spend a long time on Toutiao, but he also knew that his boss was not a stingy person. When the research and development of [Temple Escape] was successful, without knowing the future results, Zhou Yujie also specially took out 200,000 yuan in cash and rewarded the entire game department team.

Lin Youde, who was standing beside him, frowned. He didn't quite understand what his boss's confidence was, and he put all the company's expansion funds on mobile games. You should know that the probability of such mobile games being popular is too low.

But then I think about it, it seems that 2048 and [Temple Escape] are also very successful, which is really strange.

After a while, Lin Youde was not confused. Anyway, the company is developing very fast now. Even if the new game is not made, it can be introduced to venture capital, and the impact is not great.

Zhou Yujie said: "You can supervise this game and don't participate in it in person. You also know that this game only requires a dozen people. In addition to the unemployed employees who have not yet reported, there are now 60 people in your game department. For the others, I need you to develop a mobile-based game platform."

"Game Platform?" Lin Youde and Zhang Yidong were shocked.

When making games, anyone can do them. As long as you have a million or creative ideas, you can do them. This belongs to the leeks in the stock market.

But it is different to build a platform, which is equivalent to a dealer, and it is a completely qualitative change.

"Don't think complicatedly. We want to be the most ordinary casual game platform. You should all know about Lianzhong and the current QQ game platform." Zhou Yujie asked with a smile.

"I know." The two nodded, and at the same time they probably understood what the boss meant. Zhang Yidong asked: "We want to make a mobile version of the casual game platform?"

"Yes, let's start with the most common chess and card games such as Happy Landlord, Chess, Military Flag, Gozi Chess, Fenqi, Tractor, and 80 points. The same is true for Lianzhong back then, but later it was overtaken by the QQ game platform. You also know what the reason is.

But in the current mobile Internet market, although there are some similar games for mobile versions, they are not a fully integrated platform, and these small companies do not have this traffic to promote them significantly. This is also our opportunity." Zhou Yujie said with a slightly raised mouth:

"We have traffic and can promote it ourselves. More importantly, as long as we promote it, we don't have to worry too much about repeating Lianzhong's mistakes, because we can directly use our mobile phone number to register an account and get rid of users' attachment to QQ numbers."

Internet users are the lazyest. In the early days of the PC era, different games, emails, and web pages had different accounts. This was a very cumbersome behavior for consumers' memories, and users often forget their accounts.

As a must-have software for Internet users, everyone has their own QQ number, and users have a deep memory of QQ number. Therefore, under the QQ traffic, more people choose QQ business. The reason is very simple, and there is no need to remember so many different accounts.

But in the era of mobile Internet, mobile phone numbers are also the best accounts, because one person can be verified by text messages at any time. This is the best way to break one of the monopoly of QQ.

"This is indeed a good project." Lin Youde also nodded and said: "The traffic and profit of the chess and card game platform on the computer are very large. If we can also obtain a certain market on the mobile phone, it will be of great help to control user traffic and obtain profits."

Zhang Yidong thought for a while and said: "It does require a lot of people to develop a mobile game platform similar to Lianzhong. There are also many types of games. With the framework design, I guess it may take two or three months to come out."

"The time is about the same. I don't rush, but don't be too slow." Zhou Yujie said: "There is a requirement that we must save the most traffic. What I hope is that users can use our games with confidence in the traffic state. Other upgrades and updates must be carried out under the WiFi state."

In 2010-15, the price of traffic is very expensive. In addition to the general traffic package, 1M is 10 yuan. If you accidentally turn on the traffic while watching videos, then the user's hundreds of dollars may be gone.

At present, many large companies do not care about this and think that this is the user's own problem. However, Zhou Yujie has long regarded "save traffic for users" as a strategic solution for all the company's products. This item will never change until the traffic becomes a bargain price.

Toutiao also has a strategic solution, which is preloading. According to the user's hobbies calculated by big data, in WiFi, preload dozens of news that users like in advance for users. Once the user switches to traffic or network-free state, Toutiao can continue to watch for a long time. This is also an invisible weapon. Compared with other news APPs, Toutiao not only provides visual communication comfort, but also saves traffic abnormally.

This brings a huge advantage to Toutiao, because many users will check which APPs consume too much traffic through the background. If it is too outrageous or not necessary, they will delete it directly.

"This is no problem." Zhang Yidong agreed.
