Chapter 614: Hit the mark with one shot
Future store is a huge success. Everyone can see the necessity and value of its existence.
Everyone knows that the existence of mobile app stores can greatly facilitate users and developers, and can also bring huge profits to themselves.
But even so.
Even the domestic Jiaming Alliance members who compete directly with Future S1 are just imitating the shape.
Why?
The reason is that
it is still difficult for their current mobile phones to be unified. Not
to mention the hardware unification, even the shape unification is impossible.
After all, they were forced to be on the same starting line by Future S1...
Unlike Lin Yao's previous life's Android, after Apple came out and Nokia gradually declined, the Android development team realized the potential of full touch screens and developed functions in a targeted manner.
As long as Jiaming Alliance does not change the underlying things, it will always be able to imitate its shape and patch up the basics.
The domestic Jiaming Alliance is actually considered good.
Although their app store is a beggar's version... but at least they are united and forced to work together, so that the broken house looks decent from the outside.
The app store only has certain functions.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that their app store and Future store are completely different.
And this is why they want to have a new mobile operating system so much.
As for overseas.
The members of Jiaming Alliance are even more mixed.
They can't even come up with a model for the app store...
In this case.
Of course, Linmu Studio can't go to each company to talk and ask them to log in to their mobile phones.
This is completely unrealistic.
So this time, the overseas version of "Day of Reincarnation".
The solution adopted by Linmu Studio is actually very simple, that is - use magic to defeat magic.
As a pioneer of mobile app stores.
When facing the overseas Jiaming Alliance, Linmu Studio adopted the solution of releasing the installation package and then letting users install it by themselves...
This is feasible.
Because the domestic Jiaming Alliance has at least begun to restrict the installation of third-party applications.
But overseas...
nothing has been done.
It's completely a leaky house.
Linmu Studio's move is equivalent to bypassing the entire Jiaming Alliance and pushing games to players.
This is also the reason why a large number of related posts suddenly appeared in major overseas game forums.
This is of course a pleasant surprise for overseas players.
In fact.
The mobile game craze set off by Linmu Studio this year is not limited to China, but only domestic players have fully "experienced" the evolution of mobile games during this period.
As for overseas players.
Because Future S1 is still in its infancy overseas, the coverage is not wide, and the overseas Jiaming Alliance is not as united as in China.
Many times.
Overseas players are interested in mobile games, but they may not have channels to play them.
But Linmu Studio has an unparalleled reputation among overseas players...
Years of blockbuster bombardment.
Plus player activities that can cause huge reactions every time.
All of this makes Linmu Studio's every move attract attention.
And this, of course, also includes the mobile games they announced.
Traditional games.
Overseas players can easily play.
But it takes a lot of effort to play Linmu Studio's mobile games.
But overseas players are very interested.
It's very painful.
Especially some players who can't buy Future S1 are itching to death.
This situation reached its peak at the new product launch conference not long ago.
The good news is that Linmu Studio has launched a new mobile game!
But the bad news is that it seems that it can't be played...
This is what many overseas players who have been playing Linmu Studio's games think.
And now.
The opportunity has finally come...
You can imagine.
After almost a year of holding back, overseas players who are interested in Linmu Studio's mobile games but can't play them feel when they find that "Day of Reincarnation" can be installed by themselves.
It can be said that
domestic players are watching the New Year announcement of "Day of Reincarnation".
Linmu Studio's "Day of Reincarnation" has already opened up the overseas market...
It took less than a day!
Just in this day close to the end of the year.
Linmu Studio suddenly attacked everyone...
Here, everyone is still paying attention to the New Year version update of "Day of Reincarnation".
Over there, the family was taken down...
Really the family was taken down.
This is the case for Jiaming Alliance.
This is also the case for game makers.
Originally, everyone said that they would imitate Linmu Studio's "Day of Reincarnation" and then take advantage of their single channel to use their teaching card drawing gameplay to seize the market, especially the overseas market.
Unexpectedly,
... they acted faster!
And for Jiaming Alliance,
it was even more shameful.
Damn it.
Linmu Studio did not follow the rules of martial arts and directly opened the download without even notifying Jiaming Alliance.
And the users also bought it. They downloaded it
as soon as they said it.
This is equivalent to showing the current gap between Jiaming Alliance and Future S1 in the most direct way.
If the roles were reversed,
Jiaming Alliance really couldn't do this...
If they did this, their heads would be smashed by Linmu Studio...
Although "Day of Reincarnation" landed on Jiaming Alliance, it was also good for them to some extent.
But the lack of harm does not mean that they don't feel ashamed!
In short,
many people feel that
this year
is really unbearable! ! !
Why is Linmu Studio still not quiet!
It's the end of the year.
Why are they still working?
And what do they want to do?
Yes.
What exactly Linmu Studio wants to do
has also become a focus of many peers.
The Spring Festival update of "Day of Reincarnation" can be said to be a routine operation during holidays.
But this sudden attack in the overseas market.
If you say it is not premeditated, no one will believe it.
The question is.
Why did they choose this time point to open the download of the game overseas?
For this reason.
Tianhu, who was originally in the mobile payment market, was building momentum for resources and creating a "safe crown" for its own payment system.
All temporarily put aside the idea of fighting with Linmu Studio and turned to pay attention to their mobile games.
The main reason is that in the field of mobile payment, Linmu Studio ignored them...
and Tianhu, or more accurately, Mou Feng's energy is limited.
If he pays attention to mobile payment, he will inevitably pay less attention to the field of mobile games.
This is inevitable.
And now seeing that Linmu Studio ignores Tianhu in the mobile market and focuses on the mobile game market,
he can only distract himself and temporarily get out of the field of mobile payment to pay attention to Linmu Studio's mobile games.
However.
Although Linmu Studio suddenly attacked.
But then, there were not many actions.
It was just a routine advertisement for the New Year activities of its major games.
Including "Day of Reincarnation".
But that was all...
In fact, they would have the idea of "only this"... It was outrageous.
What else should be done?
The staff of Linmu Studio are also human beings.
They also have to celebrate the New Year.
It's a big New Year.
After Lin Yao finished launching the overseas version of "Day of Reincarnation", she didn't want to move.
Not to mention letting the staff continue to work hard.
And that was all...
"Has there been an increase of one million overseas users?"
Lin Yao asked while sitting in her seat, tidying up the desk and organizing all the work results of this year.
"Yeah."
Mu Wanqing nodded gently, and then replied: "It's been less than 24 hours, and the number of registered users has exceeded one million."
"It seems that the power of the card-drawing mobile game is still considerable."
Lin Yao put a large stack of drawn setting pictures into the file box and clapped her hands: "Then we will have another one million new customers for the Spring Festival event at the end of the year."
"..."
Mu Wanqing's face looked a little strange when she heard this. After hesitating for a moment, she said: "Lin Yao, do you think these one million overseas users, apart from overseas Chinese, will have any misunderstandings about the Spring Festival in our country?"
"What misunderstanding?" Lin Yao paused, then looked at Mu Wanqing curiously.
"For example, the Spring Festival is a card-drawing festival or something?" Mu Wanqing thought about it and replied.
"...No."
Lin Yao thought about it seriously, then blinked her eyes, smiled and said: "Because soon everyone will find that this thing is not divided by country..."
...
The announcement of the Spring Festival event of "Day of Reincarnation" was issued.
Overseas download is open.
Time came to the second day.
While the popularity is still there, Linmu Studio directly announced that the number of overseas players of "Day of Reincarnation" has exceeded one million!
Without the restriction of a single channel,
the number of registered users of Linmu Studio's new mobile game exceeded one million in one day.
At this moment,
the power of their mobile game was revealed.
Most of the peers still think that Linmu Studio's sudden attack was a wave, and there will be no follow-up, and think that it is limited to this.
Finally I came to my senses.
... I was overthinking it.
What will happen if a game expands into overseas markets?
Why expand into overseas markets? Isn't it just to attract more players to play and make more money?
This is the ultimate goal of a game!
And thinking of this.
Competitors have begun to adjust their mindsets.
Some time ago, because of Youmei's new products, because of QR code payment, because of Linmu Studio's various operations... their thresholds are getting higher and higher.
The expectations and precautions against Linmu Studio are also getting higher and higher.
This is a subtle process.
Compared with the QR code payment that set off a war, and compared with the Future PAD and noise-canceling headphones that have been hot searches on social media for several days, the highly innovative new mobile game "Day of Reincarnation" is even a level lower in their eyes.
After all, compared with the first two, the revenue from the game seems to be just a small profit...
In short, their cognition is biased.
Now seeing that "Day of Reincarnation" has attracted millions of users overseas in one day, competitors have finally adjusted their mindsets.
Finally, I corrected my attitude and began to understand this product, which was amazing when it was announced, but after it was announced, it seemed obscure compared to other products of Linmu Studio...
And the best way to understand it.
Of course, it is the game community.
And once you open the game community...
many people are confused.
Eh?
When did "Day of Samsara" have a section in each player community?
When did the separate section of "Day of Samsara" actually compare with the old-fashioned terminal games of Linmu Studio?
And click on the section.
It's even more exaggerated...
[Brothers, the game will be updated on the 25th of the New Year. What event will be held first? Give me a guide! ]
[Is the special level difficult? Can my four-star three-star broken car pass it? [Crying]]
[The four five-star character portraits of the New Year [picture] are really beautiful! And the characteristics seem so practical! Have you decided what to draw? ]
[I'm going to fight for the "sacrifice" during the New Year! Hehehe, the traditional red clothes and bare feet are really XP-boosting, and the characteristics are also good. ] [
The New Year sign-in and activity tutorials are here! 】
【……】
Almost all the players were discussing the New Year event and the new characters.
It was unprecedented.
And this was not a grand event where people would post a thread and chat for a few days.
Instead, there were new people posting every moment.
And as long as someone posted, there would be players replying, and the replies would be hundreds of floors.
What does this show?
The activity of the players... was extremely exaggerated!
This...
As long as the competitors saw this scene, an overlooked question reappeared in their minds, that is - how much money does this game... make?
Obviously.
There is definitely no official answer to this question at present.
They can only guess on their own.
And as long as they read the forum carefully, they can easily come to a conclusion...
There are really many players with five-star characters!
However.
There is not much time left for them to guess and react.
Because the New Year event is about to start.
Soon.
They don't have to guess.
Because "Day of Reincarnation" will truly show its power as the source of all evil...
...
On the 25th day of the lunar year.
Various departments of Linmu Studio began to take holidays one after another.
And the New Year version of "Day of Reincarnation" was officially opened.
In the first hour of the update,
700,000 players chose to update the new version as soon
as possible .
Yi Wenwen was one of them.
He had been waiting for the new version to be updated early, and was also one of the first users to update the game.
As soon as the update was downloaded,
she immediately curled up on the sofa, with excitement on her face, and opened the game.
Ding ding ding...
the logo of Linmu Studio appeared.
Then after a short load,
the login was completed.
The main page of the game appeared.
The main page of the New Year version of the game has been greatly changed.
The biggest and most conspicuous change is of course the character portrait.
The portrait of the New Year version has become a girl wearing a red traditional costume and barefoot.
She is looking at the player with a gentle and gentle temperament.
It is the new five-star character this time - 'Sacrifice'.
Yi Wenwen knew this a long time ago.
But when he saw the portrait, he still felt very surprised.
Because compared with the ordinary version, the character portrait has more elements.
There are many more light and shadow embellishments, and the surrounding candlelight shines on the characters, and even changes.
Across the screen.
He could feel the production staff's dedication...
"..."
Yi Wenwen couldn't help himself when he saw this scene. After signing in mechanically, he immediately opened the card drawing page.
Then, he used the card drawing crystals he saved this week to draw ten cards.
Exciting music sounded.
Ten meteors shot up from one end of the city.
Among them,
a golden meteor was particularly conspicuous...
Yi Wenwen was slightly startled when he saw this scene, then opened his mouth and looked at the golden light.
Then.
Thump thump thump thump thump -
the sound effect of five segments of stars emerging sounded.
"The old master replaces the new, the new peach replaces the old talisman."
Accompanied by the lines.
The girl who had just seen on the homepage appeared on the screen.
When Yi Wenwen saw this, he quacked like a duck with its neck pinched, and then stood up suddenly as if his butt was on fire.
"Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!"
He held the tablet and suddenly laughed.
Even from a distance, you can feel his happiness.
"What's wrong with you!? Did you find a girlfriend?" A female voice came from the kitchen.
Then, she said something like, "You're just like a big shot, you don't even come to help me. A dog is more useful than you. You can't find a girlfriend."
Yi Wenwen's laughter stopped abruptly and he finally calmed down. He sat down again and didn't dare to provoke his mother who was eager to have a grandchild.
However,
he still didn't hide the happiness on his face.
At this moment,
he wanted to say that he really found a wife!
But he didn't dare...
In fact, he knew better than anyone that this was just a string of data.
Whether it was a portrait or a card.
Moreover,
he had actually drawn five-star characters many times.
But even so, every time, he would still be excited about drawing the character he wanted...
This game is like magic!
Not to mention that he got the character he wanted after ten free draws!
The games of Linmu Studio are really magical!
"Screenshots, screenshots."
Yi Wenwen laughed foolishly for a while, and then immediately took screenshots with great interest, ready to show off on the forum later.
How could I not share this situation with my fellow players?
...
In the end,
Yi Wenwen's post
still didn't cause any waves.
Because on the twenty-fifth day of the lunar year, all the player communities and the "Day of Reincarnation" section were full of screenshots of card draws.
Some said they were unlucky, while others said they got it right away.
It was very lively.
Of course,
for the colleagues in Linmu Studio, this was not lively, but terrifying...
Shit.
It was really full of screenshots of card draws.
There were four or five pages of them.
And they were increasing every moment.
Of course, it is not denied that some players used the rewarded crystals.
They also know that the rewarded crystals in this game are actually not small.
In their opinion, it is even too much.
But.
Did all these users really use the rewarded crystals?
Obviously it is impossible...
After all, what is the probability of getting a five-star character?
Then... How many users have recharged at this moment?
Moreover, the game has just been launched and the New Year version has just been launched. How many users will choose to recharge next?
The most important thing is.
This game... how much money can it make?
No one can answer their questions.
Linmu Studio can, though.
But they choose not to say it, and no one can force them.
However.
Even if there is no official answer.
Most of the peers have also noticed that the money-making ability of this game must not be underestimated, and it must be... terrifying.
Because that very night.
Inexplicably.
A topic called [One Shot to the Soul] appeared on the hot searches on social media.
And the One Shot to the Soul mentioned in the topic is exactly the card drawing gameplay of "Day of Reincarnation"...
Logically speaking, this kind of game topic is difficult to be on the hot searches on social media.
However, this topic has come to the ninth place by relying on the discussion of players...
Why is this happening?
All competitors know it well.
Damn!
Because everyone participated in the card drawing!
The money-making ability of the card drawing game has begun to appear in front of everyone.
And this is not the end!
