Chapter 15 Missing a shining point
At four o'clock in the afternoon, a red Ferrari was parked at the entrance of the experience store.
Zhao Zihao got out of the car and looked at the main entrance of the experience store: "Wow! This experience store is quite small, but it was caught by this kid Chen Mo."
Lin Mao rolled his eyes: "Don't you have several such a large store?"
Zhao Zihao said, "Hey, it's all my parents', what does it have to do with me? Chen Mo has earned this by himself, it's different. Let's go and take a look inside."
The two of them called Chen Mo and waited for Chen Mo to come and open the door.
Zhao Zihao was wearing a white T-shirt on the upper body, jeans on the lower body, and a pair of sneakers on his back. If he hadn't just gotten out of the Ferrari, no one would have believed that he was a rich second generation.
In fact, his outfit is quite expensive, but I don’t know why it feels much different from street stalls when wearing it.
Lin Mao dresses more formally, with short-sleeved shirts and casual pants. Moreover, he is usually calm, so he looks more reliable.
The door is open.
"Come on, come in." Chen Mo welcomed the two of them in.
Zhao Zihao walked around the first floor twice and looked at the layout inside: "Yes, Chen Mo, this store is really good. I will call you the Internet cafe owner Chen Mo in the future."
Chen Mo Yile: "Stop making trouble, this is a serious experience store."
Lin Mao turned around with some envy: "The things here are all matched by the organizer? It's really good. I still don't have my own experience store."
Chen Mo said: "You go to participate in a competition, too."
Lin Mao smiled: "Oh, I haven't been there before. It's too difficult to win the championship. The main reason is that the audience's tastes are quite strange. Last time I participated in the competition, the game I made was of good quality, but the audience didn't buy it and got the second place. Where do you think I can reason with it?"
The three of them chatted for a while and found a nearby restaurant to have dinner.
There were only three of them in total, and they couldn't eat too many dishes. Although Zhao Zihao was rich, he was not very particular about eating. He ordered five dishes casually and ordered two bottles of beer, and chatted while eating.
"Zhao Zihao, how is your studio doing recently?" Chen Mo asked.
Zhao Zihao picked up the food and said, "It's just like that. I didn't expect to make money. I just played games with me anyway. If I meet someone I can't beat in the game, I'll call people and beat them up in groups."
Lin Mao said: "Look at your promising prospects."
Zhao Zihao said angrily: "Why would I raise these people? Isn't it just to be a thug for me?"
Chen Mo said: "Then you must not be domineering in the game?"
Zhao Zihao shook his head: "Hi, I've been so angry that I have been talking about these two days.
Chen Mo asked, "What's wrong? Is it bullied in the game?"
Zhao Zihao said: "The VR game that I just released recently is the foreign "Earth Online". I have been playing it recently, and this game almost made me angry to death."
Chen Mo asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Zihao said: "Don't mention, the designer of this game is sick! I tell you that everyone who enters the game is born directly on the street, and they only cost 500 yuan. Everyone has to work and make money like the real world!"
"Did you say I am playing your game to experience the life of a working person? As a result, I can't even charge you if you want to make money!"
"What's most annoying is that you always have the kind of pen to tease you, deliberately seeking trouble, but you beat him and the police arrest you. I always fight, so I want to call my younger brothers. As a result, these people are not born in the same city as me, so I have to take the train!"
Chen Mo was happy: "Is this too real?"
Lin Mao sighed: "This foreign designer is amazing. Can you make such a game?"
Zhao Zihao said very dissatisfiedly: "Hey, it's amazing, but I always think this designer is sick? What are the benefits of disgusting players? Is it not good to do something with this technology?"
Chen Mo said: "It's a bit unreasonable. I have experienced things countless times in reality. What's the point of experiencing them again in the game?"
Zhao Zihao continued: "And, this game has money and nowhere to spend. You can't buy anything with recharge. You have to make money by yourself! You keep cracking down on private transactions and ban the account if you find it. This makes me feel so frustrated that I don't want to play it anymore."
Chen Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, wait for me to make a game for you to spend money to buy combat power directly. You can enjoy it as much as you want."
Zhao Zihao laughed: "Really, Chen Mo, then I'm just waiting for you to spend money on combat power! I won't say anything at that time, I will charge it for one thousand yuan first!"
Chen Mo smiled and said, "One thousand dollars? One thousand dollars I can guarantee that you can die a little dignified in the game."
"Ah?" Zhao Zihao was stunned, "Is it still less than one thousand yuan? The internal test qualification of "Earth Online" is only sold for more than five hundred yuan."
Chen Mo lowered his head and took a sip of tea: "Okay, you'll know then."
Lin Mao said: "Hey, it's too far. Zhao Zihao, what specific business is your studio doing now? How many players are there?"
Zhao Zihao thought for a while: "Players. That's right. Our company is a studio. We don't directly manage the guild. Only the guild presidents have players in their hands. We are still separated by a layer."
Lin Mao asked: "Then how many presidents can you reach? When I make the game, can I attract some users for me?"
Zhao Zihao said: "It depends on how much you want. I know about a dozen presidents, and there are about a few thousand players together. It is a bit difficult to rely on this little person to support your game's income, but it is okay to just support the scene."
Lin Mao sighed: "The independent games I made are not easy to promote, and they are niche. They are not optimistic about those channels and have too few resources."
Zhao Zihao said: "Can't you just hang the application market directly?"
Lin Mao shook his head: "No one pays attention to the application market, and no users see it."
Zhao Zihao thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll ask you then, and try to find a way to make the game popular for you. If it really doesn't work, at least give you the data to be more beautiful. By the way, Chen Mo, do you have any suggestions?"
Chen Mo said: "I haven't seen your game yet."
Lin Mao took out his cell phone and handed it to Chen Mo: "Look at it, the completion rate is about 80%.
Chen Mo took the phone and clicked on the independent game that Lin Mao was developing.
After playing for five minutes, Chen Mo knew it.
This is a horizontal level-passing game, which uses the European medieval packaging, and the theme is the clichéd story of the knight saving the princess, as well as the boss battle plot that defeats the evil dragon.
In Chen Mo's opinion, various designs are actually quite good among D-level designers, but they still have some flaws.
Although all aspects are acceptable, it is difficult for players to pay for money. Even if this game is priced at 10 yuan, players should consider why they want to buy it.
The plot, gameplay, art, and all are good, but there is nothing particularly outstanding.
Chen Mo thought for a while and said, "I think you may have a misunderstanding in thinking."
Lin Mao asked: "What misunderstanding?"
Chen Mo said: "I think there is something wrong with your positioning. You are indeed a niche when you are making independent games, but there is actually no need to position your own game as a niche game in your own positioning."
Zhao Zihao scratched his head: "What does it mean? It's a bit tangled. Chen Mo, please explain it clearly."
Chen Mo said: "It can be seen that your stand-alone mobile game has put in all aspects, but you are doing it completely according to the standards of niche games, that is, you are just targeting the small group of players who like this theme, and the number of these players is not enough to support the sales of this game."
Lin Mao was a little puzzled: "But, isn't it just about targeting the needs of the target players?"
Chen Mo said: "I mean, you can expand the target player group to put it bluntly, you need to let more people play your game."
Lin Mao asked in confusion: "It's simple, I know this too, but how can I let more people play?"
