But that was data from the R&D module. Han Ming didn't know if there would be such a large number of concurrent users in reality.
After all, the entire game "World" is in 3D, and there are a lot of first-person perspectives and character interactions.
If Han Ming were to design and build the game server himself later, and optimize it with a ray printer, and then set up a high-bandwidth hosting room.
The number of participants could potentially be increased, but since we're currently in the testing phase, this task will be handed over to Liu Debao.
There is still a lot of room for expansion in the game, which is also a test for Liu Debao's team. Let's see if those "geniuses" can deliver a satisfactory answer.
Han Ming has been keeping his schedule packed these past few days.
During the day, he would go to the factory to help Liang Jianxing and the others build houses.
Han Ming wasn't a bricklayer and couldn't lay bricks, so he could only do things like carrying buckets of mortar, which he considered as a laborer.
In his spare time, he would go outside the workshop to supervise the painting work on the exterior walls.
Because Dong Xiaolu gave him 300,000 yuan, this money also relieved the pressure of building a house for the small factory.
Considering that server hosting would require additional costs, Han Ming didn't dare take more than 50,000 yuan and gave it to Liang Jianxing to pay for building the house.
Now, Han Baili, the father, has basically handed over the factory to Han Ming. He can't possibly let Uncle Liang foot the entire bill for building houses on his own factory.
Even if it's not much money, you still have to give a token amount.
So, ignoring Liang Jianxing's refusals, Han Ming forced the money on him. He even said that the remaining construction costs would be paid to Liang Jianxing with interest.
Liang Jianxing scolded Han Ming for being too formal.
The newly built house will not only serve as a studio for the game team, but also as accommodation for those few people.
Han Ming simply didn't have the means to rent them any more housing.
So when expanding the office building, they simply divided it into sections and built four two-story buildings behind the office building.
This expanded the original two-story office buildings in the front to four. With the addition of four dormitory buildings in the back, it looked neat and tidy, and basically met Han Ming's current needs.
As for the construction progress, it's not a big problem. We can just add some construction workers. Anyway, the weather is good in the summer, and we can work in the morning and evening, so it shouldn't delay the construction schedule too much.
When he got home in the evening, Han Ming spent the rest of his time designing game servers, except for having long phone conversations with Dong Xiaolu.
The server data scanned a few days ago has been integrated and upgraded by the R&D center, and now a brand new server diagram has been generated.
Based on this printing technology, the machine's performance is estimated to be at least 80% better than that of a regular machine.
That means a single machine can support around 9,000 players in "World".
Han Ming originally planned to optimize the server's operating system as well, but then he thought about creating a complete system right now.
If the maintenance personnel in the server hosting room don't know how to operate it, wouldn't that cause trouble? So, we opted for the traditional Linux.
Han Ming's plan was to launch the first batch of games as single-player versions, and if the market response was good, then launch the online version immediately afterward.
We still need to figure out how to build the first batch of game servers that online games urgently need.
To ensure a better gaming experience and increase the number of players, at least 20 servers are needed.
Ten units were deployed as a cluster to the China Telecom line, and another ten units were deployed to the China Unicom line.
With around 200,000 players online, "World" can be considered a pretty good game.
As for users in other markets around the world, Han Ming has no way to consider that right now; he can only wait until the game is gradually accepted by people.
The key is that you can only go abroad after you have made money yourself.
Han Ming had considered renting machines directly from game server providers, but after calculating the costs of renting and hosting the machines, the 200,000 yuan he had was far from enough.
It seems I need to speed up the construction of this game server.
Five days had passed since Han Ming returned from Dongning City. That evening, after returning home from the factory, he received a call from his girlfriend.
He said he would come to Xiaqiao tomorrow to report to Han Ming and officially become one of Han Ming's employees.
Han Ming was overjoyed to hear this; he had finally found his girlfriend, and his husband-and-wife business was now officially established.
Dong Xiaolu also brought good news: the business registration for Super Ray Digital Entertainment Company has been officially approved.
Han Ming had been waiting for just this, and upon hearing that the result was in, he was overjoyed.
Dong Xiaolu isn't around right now. If she were, he would definitely pick her up and kiss her passionately.
Han Ming asked Dong Xiaolu about her schedule for tomorrow and then planned to pick her up from the station.
After ending his call with his girlfriend, Han Ming received another call from Liu Debao. Liu Debao said that the game's official website had been completed and was currently undergoing internal testing.
In addition, the game's refinement work is still ongoing, and the team is working day and night to ensure that the game will be released on October 1st.
