There is a Problem with This Online Game Planning

  Chapter 590 suspected monopoly

  August 20th.

  The new version of WeChat is officially launched.

  In fact, when this version was disclosed, countless users expressed their expectations.

after all. When a piece of software has more than 10 million users.

  The qualitative change has actually begun.

  Many colleagues may not have reacted yet.

  I thought it would be easy for a mobile app to break tens of millions.

  This is also the current trend of mobile applications, especially mobile games, giving them an illusion.

   But actually.

  At this stage, FutureS1 is so hot that the shipment will be close to 20 million.

  Jiaming Alliance has more users, but there are only about 200 million smartphones that can run WeChat.

   This also eliminates many users who are unwilling to try early adopters, and even use smart phones, but because of their early age, they cannot adapt to WeChat.

   And now.

  Weixin has 30 million registered users.

   It can really be said to be half a national-level application.

   This level of application.

  It is still a communication software that users may open every day after downloading and using it.

  A small version update may attract a lot of attention.

   Not to mention such a big version update with great fanfare.

  With so many users, even if only one out of ten people comes out to express their opinions, it is a huge volume of voice.

so.

  When the new version of WeChat officially launched on August 20th.

   Just been online for an hour.

   On the trending search, the topic of WeChat appeared.

   And the people discussing it are everywhere.

  Social media, forums, player communities, and even various WeChat groups, Tianhu chat groups.

   can see the discussion.

   This really exceeded the expectations of many Linmu studio colleagues.

  Probably because the number of registered users of WeChat exceeded 30 million too quickly, so fast that everyone ignored it. What an exaggerated number.

   And in the new version of WeChat.

   The strongest user experience, of course, is the function of making friends with strangers.

   This function did not have a good reputation in Lin Yao's previous life.

   Even in the later stage, it is completely a dispensable function.

  However, when this feature first launched, it was really popular.

  In the beginning, on communication software, most people were looking for someone to chat with.

  Because most users don't have many friends, this is impossible.

   During the development of communication software, even WeChat, it cannot be accepted by everyone immediately.

  Everyone's acceptance of new things is different.

  Maybe many early adopters downloaded WeChat and found it really useful, but I am the only one in my social circle who uses it.

  No doubt.

   This is normal.

  In this case, 'LBS social networking', that is, the social needs of location-based services, was born naturally.

  The circle of friends around me does not use WeChat.

  But with the advancement of the mobile Internet, online life is no longer limited to the PC side, and people can surf the Internet in every location.

  Naturally, some people will want to find someone who can chat at the far end or nearby.

   This is the most fundamental need in human nature.

  Although some people do use this function, they have different intentions.

  However, this is not a problem with the function itself, but that each user uses the function for a different purpose.

   This function cannot be killed with a stick because of this.

   And now WeChat is here.

  The situation is actually the same.

  Users also face the problem that there are not many friends and the chat activity is not high.

   At this time, a function to make friends with strangers such as 'Shake' will be launched.

   An instant hit!

  How popular is this feature?

   Directly let a large number of users who didn't intend to download WeChat, go to download the app instead.

  On the day the new version was released, the number of users went up immediately.

   This is another benefit of this feature.

  That is... many potential users feel that if they download this software, they can chat even if there is no one around them with whom they can chat.

   This greatly promotes the spread of software.

   In addition to this function.

  In the new version of Weixin, there is another change praised by colleagues, that is, the open interface of Weixin.

Currently.

  Users can directly share music, news, food, photography and other news content with friends from third-party applications.

  For example, if a user hears a good song on the Sizhu Yueting platform, he can share it with his friends directly.

certainly.

  This function can be used in very few scenarios at present. The main reason is that there are few applications supported by Jiaming Alliance. FutureS1 is better. After all, Weixin only has an open interface. Whether it can be shared quickly or not depends on the efforts of other software.

  However, currently on FutureS1, the applications that support this function have a very good experience.

   Many software developers are also happy to provide support for this sharing function.

  Because this is a natural communication channel!

   And this time wechat is being updated.

   There are many other large and small updates.

   Such as Emoji expressions, custom chat backgrounds, etc. Needless to say.

  Users are pleasantly surprised.

compare to.

   On the contrary, the official account function and the QR code social mode.

   At the first moment, there was no big disturbance.

  For the former, many ordinary users feel that they cannot use it.

  The latter, for users who are already accustomed to entering the other party’s WeChat account to add friends, it will take a little time to feel that it is easy to use.

   What also failed to make waves was the overseas version of WeChat, which took the lead in going overseas.

   This is mainly due to the low shipment volume of the overseas version of FutureS1.

but.

   Now that there are no waves, it does not mean that these functions do not exist.

   They're there, they've always been there.

  Users will one day find out what this means.

  Actually, on the day when the new version was updated, some smart people...discovered what the big killer of the official account means.

  …

the other side.

   Peers also discovered the benefits of QR code social networking earlier than users.

  For example, Mou Feng of Tianhu.

   "You open your QR code."

  Mou Feng picked up his FutureS1 and signaled Li Guangsheng to open his QR code.

  Li Guangshang did so, and then raised the phone.

  Mou Feng directly scanned the QR code with the camera, and then looked at the page of adding people that quickly popped up, slightly startled.

"How about it?"

  Li Guangsheng looked at it with his head, then he was slightly taken aback, and sighed: "Is it coming out?"

   "...Yeah, here it comes."

  Mou Feng nodded slowly, then exited the page for adding friends, and opened his QR code again.

   The technology of QR code is actually nothing new here.

   To put it bluntly, a two-dimensional code is to use several geometric shapes corresponding to binary to represent textual and numerical information.

  Then automatically read through image input equipment or photoelectric scanning equipment to realize automatic processing of information.

   This is an open coding technology, and there is no patent or copyright dispute.

  Mou Feng also heard about it, and even had contact with it.

   But this thing has always been used here in the fields of transportation and postal logistics.

  It is generally used to facilitate the staff to track the transportation, distribution and management of goods.

  He never thought that this thing can be used to add friends...

   Still so smooth!

   Actually.

   This thing comes with the rewards of the mobile payment system.

  Lin Yao didn't think of it at the beginning, and thought it would be re-developed.

   But I didn't expect to have it here.

  At the beginning, he said that he would use QR codes to build a new social system.

  Zhong Xiu was dumbfounded.

  Because he didn't even react.

   Not to mention Mou Feng.

  However, although I used it for the first time, I was surprised.

   But Mou Feng looked at his QR code, thought about it carefully, and thought it was reasonable.

  QR code, isn’t it just a coding method for storing information?

  Just put the user’s ID, and its accompanying avatar, nickname and other information into the QR code, express it through the QR code, and then automatically process it and jump to the interface of adding friends...

Before.

  The hardware performance of smartphones is generally low, and scanning codes has high requirements for mobile phone pixels, processors and other related components.

   Probably not yet.

but.

  The times are different now, even the smart phone of Jiaming Alliance can perfectly do this job...

   "Hiss..."

  Mu Feng suddenly took a deep breath.

   Vaguely realized something.

  Although he does not have the overall perspective like Lin Yao.

  But at this moment, he did see a possible future.

   "What are you thinking?" Li Guangsheng asked immediately after seeing his reaction.

  Mou Feng was about to explain.

   But suddenly.

  The voice of Secretary Li Guangsheng came through the open door of the office.

   passed in.

   "Sister Li, have you changed to FutureS1? Add a friend."

   "Okay, what's your WeChat ID?"

   "No, you just open 'Scan' and scan it directly at my QR code...Look, it came out, this is me."

   "Wow, so convenient?"

   "..."

  Mou Feng and Li Guangsheng turned their heads together.

   Completely listened to the conversation outside the door.

   Next.

   "That's what I was thinking about!"

  Mou Feng suddenly turned around, looked at Li Guangsheng, and said solemnly: "I have a hunch! Next! The QR code will be an important entrance to the mobile Internet!

  Linmu Studio's sense of smell is really too sensitive! QR code! Really a genius idea! We must follow suit! We also want to add a scan function in the app! "

"…I understand."

  Li Guangsheng was stunned for a moment, and then he realized it instantly.

   Actually, it’s not that he understands…

   About mobile games.

  Mou Feng asked him to follow in the footsteps of Linmu Studio.

   Then, Tianhu made a lot of money directly.

Now.

  Mou Feng asked him to follow the footsteps of Linmu Studio again, and he subconsciously wanted to do the same.

  This is a kind of stress response...

  Mou Feng said to keep up with the pace, and Linmu Studio is doing it again.

  No matter what... imitate first, you are right!

this moment.

  His idea is so simple.

   I really crossed the river by touching Linmu Studio...

   And after speaking, he immediately left the office to find someone to take charge of the matter.

  Mou Feng watched Li Guangsheng leave, then looked down at the QR code again.

   fell into deep thought.

  He vaguely felt that things were far from that simple.

   But he really can't think of more...

  …

  Tianhu has been whipped by Linmu Studio for so long, and has become the company with the fastest response.

  And most of the other peers found the QR code function, but they just discovered it.

   Even many high-level colleagues in Linmu Studio didn’t respond as fast as users.

   August 21st.

   Shake and other functions.

  Although the freshness is still there.

   But more users, more new version content.

   Among them, the new QR code social mode is included!

   Just send out your own QR code, and you can add friends?

   This is too convenient! ?

  As more and more users spoke, more and more users noticed this feature.

  QR code identification function.

  It has completely overturned the previous method of adding friends. You need to enter the account number, nickname and other information in the search, and then perform the complicated search operation. It realizes adding friends with one scan, which greatly facilitates the use of users.

   So soon.

  The relevant heat begins to ferment rapidly.

   The QR code became popular in one day!

  At the same time, Weixin relies on its huge user base and its advantages of being really easy to use, so that the QR code is instantly accepted by all users!

  At this moment, the user discovered that making friends can be so easy and free.

   Only need a simple sentence to add a friend.

   Then open the QR code to complete.

   And the same day.

  Weixin’s daily user growth has officially jumped to 100,000.

   Increase 100,000 registered users a day!

   Then the second day, the third day, the fourth day...

   Even increase instead of decrease!

  When this data is disclosed.

  It took a lot of people to react.

  What exactly does the QR code function mean.

   In fact, it is not just a QR code.

  Shake, official account, open interface, Emoji expression, custom chat background and so on.

   These are for many people who have not reacted.

   It was originally just a software update.

  Although it is easy to use.

   But also just an update.

   Available at this time.

  100,000 users grow every day!

  This tm is different...

  Many people realized that WeChat now has 30 million registered users!

   Continue to increase by 100,000 per day.

   When is the head?

  Fifty million... or 100 million?

  A communication software with 100 million users...

   Hiss.

   Is this just a simple communication software! ?

   Come to think of it.

finally.

  Many people have come out of the illusion that the mobile terminal is hot recently, and also from the rapid growth of WeChat in a short period of time, thinking that this is nothing special.

   Admit one thing.

  The emergence of WeChat has indeed subverted people's lives.

  Its rich social functions, easy to use, and rich in functions.

   Indeed, it has achieved an almost monopoly position in social applications!

   Monopoly!

  Among the social apps, the only one that can still be used may be Tianhu Chat.

   But this one can fight, just like a three-year-old kid fighting a top boxer.

   It is indeed possible to fight.

   But even if the kid tried his best, he probably couldn't make the top boxer move a step, right?

   A monopoly social software.

  A game company whose revenue is one block behind the second place.

   Damn it! !

  Unknowingly.

  Linmu Studio, a game company, seems to have become a technology giant...

certainly.

  Most investment banks in the industry already have an accurate understanding of this fact.

  Linmu Studio is indeed not just a game company, but a technology giant.

  Their path of transformation and growth is legendary.

   What's even more outrageous is that they are still in the transition period, allowing the original game business to maintain a consistent high-speed growth.

   This is the most outrageous.

  And this is also the reason why Linmu Studio's game competitors, as well as players, feel that they have become technology giants without knowing it.

  Because it was really too fast.

   Everything is too fast.

   It’s business as usual in the games business.

Then.

  WeChat suddenly appeared, and then it became a monopoly.

  Now, in many player communities, players are starting to estimate Lin Yao's worth again...

  They had a hunch.

   Their spiritual wives.

   This year's ranking on the rich list will surprise everyone!

   Investors are more concerned about what WeChat, an application with more than 30 million registered users and increasing by 100,000 every day, will bring to Linmu Studio.

   Even many investors hope that Linmu Studio will take it out for financing alone...

Yes.

  YouMedia financing comes first.

   Now investors are hoping that Linmu Studio will come again.

  Game You don't want us to interfere.

Row.

  The other projects can be financed.

  We are willing to invest money.

  Even the new shareholders of YouMedia have such thoughts, and even try to find out what Zhang Youjie has to say.

   It made Zhang Youjie quite speechless.

   As for Linmu Studio, Lin Yao certainly has no idea of ​​financing.

  A mobile phone is a mobile phone, and software is software.

   These are two different things.

but.

  Linmu Studio demonstrated to all investors what WeChat, an app with more than 30 million registered users, will bring to Linmu Studio...

   This day at the end of August.

  WeChat has undergone a small version update.

   Fixed some bugs, and officially added the official news function.

  The so-called official news is to push the hottest news to users every day.

   And when this function is launched, the news pushed on the first day is all news from the official media.

   But the next day.

  In addition to pushing news from the official media, Linmu Studio also promoted the multimedia project "Resident Evil" on the most conspicuous headlines...

  Users, just open WeChat.

   You can see the information about "Resident Evil" on the news account.

  【The whole world will be infected! 】

  【The first preview of "Resident Evil", Lu Xiu is the voice of the heroine Rebecca. 】

   and click in.

  You can directly see the trailer of the movie version of "Resident Evil" released by Linmu Studio.

  In preview.

   Except for the pictures announced at the e-sports festival.

   also announced for the first time the picture of the train and the actor Billy Cohen.

  The entire promotional film is full of suspense and horror.

   Especially at the end.

  Retrospective footage of the classic Resident Evil, when it reappeared in the movie.

   It left a deep impression on all audiences.

   And this is also the first time for Linmu Studio to announce its own work on WeChat.

  Effect...

   Too good to explode!

  Mainly because WeChat users open the software every day, and the official news function is very fresh.

  Suddenly saw the words 'the whole world will be infected'.

   Then click in and see the exquisite CG picture.

   Click to open again.

   Another promotional film full of suspense and horror...

   Whoever read this will not be impressed.

   Originally.

   "Resident Evil", a multimedia project, is only well-known among players.

   After all, the debut was at the e-sports festival.

but.

  Wechat announcement.

   Countless ordinary people also know.

  This made "Resident Evil", which was originally defined as a fan movie, instantly become a popular movie, and it is still a popular popular movie.

   Because of tens of millions of people.

   Whether you want to watch a movie or not is another matter.

   But at least.

  They all know that there is a movie called "Resident Evil" coming out soon...

this moment.

  The power of WeChat is fully revealed.

   Those who know a little bit about the inside story, after calculating the cost of publicity and distribution of this movie, they all took a breath...

certainly.

   In amazement.

   This also brings another topic to the forefront, that is—is WeChat... suspected of being a monopoly?

It is clear.

  Some people don't want to see such a big killer like WeChat, which is in the hands of Linmu Studio...
