Chapter eight hundred and forty-six the burgeoning online game market

On the way back, Li Kewen was thinking about what Jester told him when he first returned home.↑,

Go to study in the United States?

According to Jester's identity, of course, this cannot be deceiving him, because there is no need. He wanted to go in his heart, but he knew very little about the United States. Although now with the Internet, he can learn a lot of things from the outside world.

However, it is different now than it is in ten or twenty years.

More than ten or twenty years later, an ordinary person can have a deep understanding of the customs, culture, history, political culture, and other aspects of countries around the world as long as he is willing.

However, it is impossible in this era.

For the United States, at least in this era, I still yearn for Li Kewen. The university that can be recommended by Jester is definitely one of the best universities in the United States. American universities are completely ahead of domestic universities in this era. If you use a relatively accurate word to explain it, there is no comparability.

Li Kewen also told his parents about this. His parents are just ordinary people. Although they have a good job, they are still in the category of ordinary people, and even have a better understanding of the United States than their sons.

"That person really has the ability..."

Li Kewen's mother even suspected this, but his father shook his head and interrupted his mother's question: "The news is reported, and this person named Jester is a great celebrity. Before, because he wanted to meet Kewen, we were also subject to political review. I had inquired about this person at that time. It was amazing. The world's top rich man and his influence in the United States were very great. Even when he came to China, we were all deputy state-level leaders who attended the meeting and greeted him in person..."

Li Kewen's father's words also completely relieved his mother.

Of course, it is impossible for such a person to just talk about it casually.

"Kewen, do you want to go to the United States?" His parents had no choice but to make a decision, so they decided to ask the protagonist of the matter for their opinions.

"think."

Li Kewen said without hesitation.

"money……"

In fact, this is what Li Kewen's parents are worried about. They are just ordinary families and are considered good in China. However, in the capitalist world of the United States, this little money is not enough.

However, Li Kewen quickly explained: "Mr. Li told me that if I was willing to sign a five-year contract with him to work at Mars Entertainment after graduation, he would provide me with all the fees for studying in the United States, and even give me an opportunity to intern at his company at the right time. I also asked about the internship salary..."

Li Kewen said a number to his parents, and then his parents were so surprised that they opened their mouths wide and could not speak.

Because this number is simply out of reach for them.

"Then, his company? What does his company do?"

As Li Kewen's parents, of course, they had to understand this question, and Li Kewen also explained in detail. When they heard Li Kewen say that Jester's company was about making games that were useless in their eyes, they also grew up. Even his mother was extremely surprised to say that this thing can make money?

Li Kewen said with certainty: "It's not only possible to make money, but also to make money."

"Why did he come to you? Logically speaking, people like him will not find you even if they are looking for talents in China. After all, you are a high school student. You are not even a college student..."

This is also what Li Kewen's family is confused about.

In their eyes, although Li Kewen has shown some talent and talent in computer science since he was a child, there are so many people in China. There are too many people with this ability, and their son is a high school student. The other party does not look for students from famous universities, but instead comes to find their son, which is something they really can't understand.

"It can only be said that it was a coincidence that a small thing I made was seen by the other party, and then became interested. Mr. Li happened to be in China during this period, so he decided to meet me."

Li Kewen did not say how he was valued by Jester, and even put him together with his idol Carmack.

However, he was still a little dissatisfied with his parents just because he was just a high school student. So he defended himself: "My parents, can your thoughts not be so outdated in any era? There is still such thoughts. In the field of programmers, Xue Li does not represent anything. For example, the best programmer before Mars Entertainment was a high school student, but he is the god in the minds of countless programmers around the world!"

When Li Kewen's parents heard his son say this, he naturally looked at each other.

While Li Kewen was discussing with his family whether to go to the United States, Jester was also thinking and planning, combining the history that happened in the domestic game market in his mind to think about how he should plan in China.

In fact, the domestic game market has been a deformed market since the day it was born. Under what circumstances can the game market be formed and develop healthily?

He must have two inevitable conditions.

One is the richness of material life, so that people can fully enjoy spiritual food, and the second is that copyright protection must be paid attention to.

Because only when the first point is met will there be a large number of players willing to spend money on the game.

Only by satisfying the second point can the gaming companies survive.

In China, it goes without saying that it is the past, the present, or the future, which is unattainable. If Jester had not been successful in China by releasing his own company's M-Tun RPG game, the domestic game market might still be half dead.

The domestic game market is actually much better than the same period in history. It is said that some companies are preparing to introduce "Net Genesis", which has been operating in China for several years. For example, a game called "King of Kings" made by Wanwan, some companies are also preparing to introduce it. These are the sweetness seen from online games such as Mt Rpg agents by Jester.

Although the material life in China is still far from abundant, because of the operation method of online games, which cannot be pirated, this kind of game has a large market.

Only such games can exist in the domestic market.

In fact, in the original world of Jester, more than ten or twenty years later, many domestic players even formed a convention that they believed that online games are real games. Under this abnormal cognition, the real stand-alone game market is difficult to rise.

In fact, the great success of the game type mtrpg is not only inspired by these people in China.

For example, Koreans learn very quickly. It is said that there are several domestic companies that are also discussing agency introductions with Korean game companies.

It is now 1999, and it is the beginning of the explosion of the domestic online game market.

Some people in China are even thinking about whether we can also make our own M-Touch RPG, such as martial arts style games that are completely different from these popular European and American fantasy styles?

Or is it a turn-based m-touch rpg with a completely different turn-based combat style from the real-time combat brought by Darkness?

In this era, people are thinking about these things and trying them.

In fact, in this era, only money is the only thing that has money. Having enough understanding of the game industry is not too difficult to make an online game that can make money. The real difficulty lies in the layout of sales channels. Don’t think that online games do not need sales channels.

Although online games are free to download on the client.

However, in this era when online remittance does not exist and online banking does not exist, game companies can only make profits by selling physical point cards. It is very difficult to lay out a complete point card channel.

Of course, Jester didn't need to worry about this problem, because he expected this step when he formed a company with his sister-in-law in China a few years ago.

Therefore, he put laying such channels first at that time, which was much more important than making money.

In the original history, the two puzzles that can make the game type of mtrpg shine brightly are "Network Genesis" and "Diablo". However, in this era, these two puzzles have been completed by Mars Entertainment, so by this time, it is time to bear fruit. Just like in the United States, eq is about to be developed and will be officially released soon.

Judging from the feedback from the test, many people are optimistic about the prospects of this game.

Many people even predict that this will be a game that can attract paid players of 200,000 or even 300,000 yuan.

There are also many companies in China who are ready to go. They are now in the sunny industry. Jester is naturally unwilling to fall behind. However, during this period, Mars Entertainment Headquarters did not have any special experience to participate in this initial strangle battle that was destined to be extremely tragic, because in Jester's view, such initial strangle battle is meaningless.

Moreover, in the European and American markets, at least before O was released, the influence of mtrpg was far from comparable to that of console video games.

So, Jester was considering whether to set up a specialized development department for Mt Rpg game development in China. The types of games developed can also be limited to martial arts styles. Because of the fantasy style games, the domestic ones are much worse than those in foreign countries. In terms of cultural identity and understanding, they are far inferior.

However, the martial arts style is unique in China and is also loved by domestic players.

Although the domestic stand-alone market is weak and soft, there have been several well-made martial arts-style games in recent years. Although there are masterpieces like "Sword and Demon" that can be successful in Europe and the United States, a game called "Sword and Love" made by a studio called Xishanju can make many domestic players extremely passionate.

Of course, although these players who like this game play pirated versions.

Although because of Jester, Daewoo's Legend of Sword and Fairy did not achieve the lofty status in the original history.

However, in the final analysis, the Legend of Sword and Fairy is still a qualified game in this era, and is not as good as those truly top-notch works. For example, the gap between it and "Sword and Magic" is obvious. However, in this Chinese P-game, especially the Chinese RPG games, some people still like the second-rate work "Sword and Fairy".

Therefore, at least the popularity of martial arts style in China is unquestionable.

Jester thought about this matter aside, and then found Fu Zan and talked about it to him. As the head of domestic affairs, Fu Zan naturally agreed with Jester's proposal.

In fact, he also saw the huge market that online games may exist in China in the future, because everyone knows that stand-alone players are only dead ends in China, and the Internet is likely to be able to take a completely different path. At least in the eyes of several domestic studios in Mars Entertainment, they need to focus abroad at the beginning of making games.

Because only when games can succeed in the country can they survive.

"Build a new studio with the purpose of developing online games mainly based on martial arts themes." Fu Zan kept thinking about the new instructions given to him by his boss just now. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was feasible.

Because as a Chinese, he knows that any gamer like him has a dream of martial arts.

Whenever they play "Bad Gate" and "Exotic Soul-Supering Song", countless people have sighed, why can't we make such martial arts rpgs?

Although they also have excellent works such as "New Swordsman Love" and "Sword and Magic Record", this is far from enough.

In addition to the great market prospects that online games must exist, it is foreseeable that this newly established studio may really be able to achieve some results to make gamers who like this game style. The lack of it is that they are going to make a fun game.

Before, Fu Zan was talking about the acquisition with Xishanju.
