Rebirth 84, starting from fish farming

Chapter 606 Mengwang is not a dream

Hu Dagui suddenly called Lu Changhua after New Year's Day.

"Changhua, I have some good news to report to you. Our cooperation with Monternet has officially started, and it will go online around the Spring Festival."

"Really? So fast?"

Today's Internet companies can be said to be in a state of bleakness.

This year, the stock prices of international Internet companies have plummeted, entering an Internet winter.

Many domestic Internet companies also followed suit and went public in the past two years, especially overseas.

Now I have also encountered a cold snap, and there is a daily limit.

The main reason is that investors are not optimistic about the profit model of Internet companies.

Most businesses use free resources to earn traffic, and then use various forms of advertising to increase revenue.

This old-fashioned profit model has long lost the trust of investors.

And the new e-commerce platform has not yet gained popularity.Relatively speaking, it is still in the cultivation period.

As a result, the stock price also fell.

On the contrary, Haowu.com, which has been steadily improving, is far ahead.

But it happens to be a private company that is not listed on the stock market.

This left investors around the world stunned.

Faced with the mobile company's Monternet plan, many Internet company leaders are not optimistic about it.

why?
Just because the Internet, which uses computer terminals as its main form, has not been popularized yet. How about using mobile phones to access the Internet?

Are you kidding?

Thinking about the various expenses makes one's head spin.

Under such circumstances, what good results can be achieved?

Because many Internet companies are not very active.

On the contrary, the two platforms, Souxin.com and Haowu.com, have been very active and proactive.

As early as a year ago, before mobile companies separated from China Telecom, they actively contacted each other.

After receiving the news this year, they even took the initiative to offer mobile news and convenient life content.

At this moment, mobile phones have the functions of mobile Internet access and mobile mailbox.

Mobile news is still distributed via text messages on a monthly subscription basis.

Free news for six months, after that, it will be charged at a price of one yuan per month.

Ten pieces of news every day.

After internal testing, this business will be opened during the Spring Festival.

At the same time, the mobile versions of Souxin.com and Haowu.com are stepping up their revisions.

Strive to go online on May [-] next year.

Due to current network speed limitations, the revised webpage has removed images and is dominated by text.

Although rough, we strive to create the first impression.

For this reason, the technical department spent all night coding the code, which was equivalent to writing it all over again.

"The test has started now. I will send you the address and you can go and test it too."

"Okay, send it to your phone."

Ding dong, ding dong.

Soon, Hu Dagui sent a text message.

There is a link to the website above.

Lu Changhua fiddled with his mobile phone, and it took him a long time to open a web page.

It is the homepage of Souxin.com.

After more than ten minutes of hard work, Lu Changhua finally entered the news page.

Although the speed of Internet access is tooth-ache, after all, mobile Internet access has a place.

After fiddling with it for more than an hour, Lu Changhua called Hu Dagui.

"Dagui, please immediately send someone to the mobile phone manufacturer to lock the homepage of the Internet to Souxin.com or Haowu.net."

"Why is that?"

"This is the bundling of software and hardware. As long as consumers buy their mobile phones, the first page they open online will be our page."

"Uh, I understand, I'll do it right away."

"Also, let the technology department develop text messaging games for a monthly fee."

"What's the matter with this?"

"This is a play on words."

Lu Changhua explained patiently.

"For example, when the mobile phone enters the game, it will appear in the Novice Village."

"He is a first-level novice."

"Then visit the blacksmith in the village to forge weapons, visit the tailor to sew armor, visit the library, and obtain martial arts secrets."

"This way, he can go out of the village and fight monsters."

"You can level up by defeating a certain number of monsters or gaining experience points."

"When you reach level five, you have to leave the village and travel around."

"Then encounter various events, upgrade to obtain treasures, and kill higher-level monsters."

"Of course you can interact with players after reaching a certain level."

"For example, competing in martial arts, making friends, exchanging gifts, drinking wine, and reciting poems."

"You can also join Jianghu organizations."

“The relationships between different organizations are different.”

“Some are friendly to each other, and some are hostile to each other.”

"And the country."

"Different countries are also friendly and hostile. This relationship can also be converted."

Lu Changhua's words were spitting, and Hu Dagui was confused. "Wait a minute. Boss, you are one, and I will break my leg if I run away. I think you should write it down, and I'll have someone perfect it before doing it."

"Uh……"

Lu Changhua was stunned. He said it in vain.

"Okay, I'll write an outline and you can find someone to perfect it."

Lu Changhua took out a pen and paper and wrote down the game mode in his memory.

Wang Yao was also very curious when she saw that her husband rarely wrote so seriously.

Lu Changhua handed her what she had written and asked her to give her opinions.

After reading this, Wang Yao shook her head and said, "I don't understand this, but it seems quite attractive."

"Really?! Haha, this is my opinion."

So, Lu Changhua faxed these few pages.

Hu Dagui took it in his hand and tasted it carefully.

Then I hired the company's game designer.

Let them perfect the game.

The Spring Festival in 2001 was relatively early, with New Year’s Eve falling on January 23rd.

From the looks of it, it is impossible for this word game to be launched during the Spring Festival.

The main form of word games at this time is still turn-based games.

In other words, when player A launches an attack on player B, corresponding text appears on player B's phone.

"You were repulsed by player A using the Kang Long You Regret method and lost 15 blood points."

"What do you choose, escape? Fight back?"

Player B makes a choice based on his or her own strength.

If you choose to escape, text will be displayed on player B's side, "You have fled and your reputation in the world will be reduced by 20 points."

At the same time, text is displayed on player A's side, "The opponent player B has escaped, and you have won a big victory!"

"Reward ××××."

If player B chooses to fight back.

Then, Player B displays "Retaliation means, boxing, swordsmanship, Taoism."

According to the specific items selected by player B, specific exercises, etc. will appear.

This is A's action, B's reaction, and then A's reaction, step by step.

Rather than being a game, both parties can take actions at the same time and hurt each other.

Many people are familiar with this turn-based game.

Back in the 90s, many stand-alone games were turn-based.

Later, a large number of turn-based games also appeared in online games.

Nowadays, on mobile phones, these text games have no pictures, only text, and turn-based games are the most suitable game form.

Before the Spring Festival, Hu Dagui perfected this word game.

He also sent the game format, story content, and various rules to his boss for Lu Changhua to check.

"I don't care about these specific contents. Just do it. If you need to test it, let me know."

"By the way, are you coming back this year?"

"The company is on holiday until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, so of course I have to come back."

"Well, tell me the specific itinerary, and I will pick you up then."

During this period of time a year ago, Lu Changhua was very happy when he learned that Souxin.com and Haowu.com had become mobile partners, and he was even more active in purchasing new year goods.

In fact, Lao Lu, the Wang family, the Hu family, and the Han family all felt that it was Lu Changhua and his wife who made trouble every year, and they felt a little sorry.

They studied it and purchased this year’s New Year’s goods.Of course, Lu Changhua has to provide the funds.

Wang Yao had no objection to this proposal.

This way the funds can be easier.

But Lu Changhua feels that this matter cannot be left to others, otherwise, there will be no feeling this year.

Just when he was about to prepare new year's goods, Han Ying, Hu Dagui, and Wang Lu all called and said that Lu Changhua and the others would not be preparing this year, and that the three of them would handle everything.

The old people have no opinion.

Lu Changhua has been running the business for so many years, so he deserves a year off.

"Do you really want to prepare New Year's goods?"

Lu Changhua asked.

"Is this still fake?"

Hu Dagui grinned and said: "No matter how well Beining develops, it still doesn't have the capital, right? The capital also has the most comprehensive New Year's goods. Don't make any profit on this matter. Wu Yue and I are in charge."

"Okay, as long as Wang Lu and Han Ying think it's okay, you can do it."

Lu Changhua said helplessly.

"What? You still don't want to?"

Hu Dagui joked.

"It's not that I'm unwilling. I also know that the capital has all the New Year's goods, but it's not easy to transport them back."

"Don't worry, we've already discussed it. We've chartered a few trucks, so you can just drive them!"

"Oh, Hu Dagui has also learned to take responsibility!"

Lu Changhua said with emotion to Wang Yao.

"I've grown up too!"

"That's right, my son is nine years old and he has just grown up!"

"This is also their intention."

"I know it costs them money."

"Since they can propose it this year, it means they have the ability. Let's not worry about it."
