The office door closed, Ye Tianming took a sip of coffee, and couldn't help but smile as he watched the data on his computer screen continue to grow.
"Not bad, this is a great start."
He did put a lot of effort into developing the game "Jianghu," and encountered many problems along the way, even replacing the core system engine.
But thanks to Ye Tianming's continuous and substantial investment, the product was finally successfully launched and put into public beta testing.
Currently, the situation appears to be quite good.
Within just one hour of going live, the number of online users had already exceeded 500,000.
The original plan was to open 473 new servers, which was twelve in total. Now, the number has been increased to eighteen, and it looks like more will have to be added later.
Fortunately, Ye Tianming had the foresight to prepare enough servers in advance.
Otherwise, if we try to rent one at the last minute, it might be too late.
If players criticize me, I'll lose face.
At the current rate of growth, the number of online players on the first day of the open beta will likely exceed three million.
If things go well, it could reach five million!
It's worth noting that no game in the gaming industry currently boasts a concurrent user count exceeding one million.
The fact that this martial arts game from Ye Tianming's company broke this record so soon after its release is already quite remarkable and worthy of being recorded in the history of the gaming industry.
If he could raise that ceiling fivefold...
That would be even more amazing.
Perhaps in the next ten or even twenty years!
It's not certain that any other game will break this record.
after all;
What does it mean to have more than five million people online at the same time?
It's important to know that Jianghu is an online game.
It's not the kind of fighting game Ye Tianming played in his previous life.
With five million concurrent online users, the game's developer is poised to become a future leader in the industry!
As long as the company doesn't do something stupid.
The future looks very bright!
To put it bluntly, if run properly, his company could live off this one game alone for ten or twenty years.
Wasn't the previous version of Fantasy Westward Journey just such an example?
of course!
The game "Jianghu" is still in its early stages, and it has a long way to go.
Whether it can rival the Fantasy Westward Journey of Ye Tianming's previous life remains to be seen.
But Ye Tianming could only say that he would try his best to reach that level, or even surpass it.
and;
Jianghu will not be the only game from his game company.
In the future, they will develop more great games for the entire gaming industry.
The martial world is just the beginning, not their peak, and certainly not their end!
But now.
Ye Tianming planned to log in and try it out himself first.
With the launch of the open beta of the game "Jianghu", there was a situation in Hong Kong where few young people went out on the streets. Even those young people who once clamored to join gangs have now become obsessed with the game.
He stopped participating in clubs and spent all his time in internet cafes, not wanting to go anywhere else.
Even many successful people from all walks of life have become fascinated by this game.
After all, they are already a small group of people who can make things happen in reality. But even so, they don't actually have many subordinates directly under them. Most employees only know who their company's boss is, but many may never have actually met their boss before they resign.
But it's different in games.
In real life, a business owner can easily create a guild in a game by spending a little money.
If someone truly wants to compete for titles like the Top Ten Gangs and occupy those strategically vital locations, even spending a fortune might not be enough.
But for these successful people, spending hundreds of millions on a game is nothing.
What they truly enjoy is the sense of accomplishment that comes from having a large following.
In reality, your employees may be polite to you on the surface, but behind your back they may call you a jerk.
However, in the game, as long as you give out good benefits, the players in those guilds will call you "guild leader" one after another, and it sounds incredibly nice.
Then, with a single command, hundreds or thousands of players will follow you to conquer cities and territories.
Once you've experienced it, very few people can resist the thrill.
Therefore;
On the day of its open beta launch, the game boasted a peak concurrent player count exceeding 530 million. In its first week, over a hundred players spent millions of yuan on in-game purchases!
Ye Tianming hadn't originally expected to make money from this game.
After all, he has so much money he can't possibly spend it all.
There's absolutely no need to make money by making games.
But these people were all eager to give him money, and he couldn't refuse!
Within a week of the game's release, there were over a hundred whales who spent over a million yuan on in-game purchases, something he had never expected.
And the number of players who spend tens of thousands of yuan on in-game purchases is even greater!
Just from the players' spending in the first week, Ye Tianming has already earned more money than many listed companies could earn in a whole year.
This is only the first week.
Over the next three weeks, the game spread like wildfire, from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. The number of registered players went from tens of millions at the beginning to more than 100 million later!
At its peak, the number of people online at the same time even exceeded nine million!
It almost crashed Ye Tianming's company's server.
Fortunately, Ye Tianming generously added another batch of servers, which was enough to support the influx of so many crazy players.
In the first month of the game's open beta, revenue unprecedentedly exceeded 1.7 billion!
However, Ye Tianming did not spend the money elsewhere.
A portion of the funds was used to develop subsequent game expansion packs, another portion was used to maintain the game's operation, and the rest was almost entirely invested in the development of new games.
The entire company embarked on a major expansion.
The game development team alone has expanded to seven.
Ye Tianming hadn't originally planned to expand so quickly.
But now he has no choice but to expand it.
no way;
He himself has been very busy lately, and even the forensic department had to take a few days off.
Sometimes Ye Tianming himself was speechless when he thought about it.
His original idea was simply to make a game for himself to play, and to make it fun, he also hoped to attract more players to play with him.
I never expected things to escalate to this extent.
it's good now.
Even his time for playing games has been reduced!
Chapter 534: A Club Disbanded Because of Games! It's the era of internet addicts!
The popularity of the martial arts world has exceeded the expectations of many people.
Even Ye Tianming himself didn't expect Jianghu to become so popular, to the point that he suddenly regretted making the game so good, which has kept him very busy.
Fortunately;
The busyness is only temporary.
He is, after all, the big boss, and can delegate many things to his subordinates.
As the boss, his main job is to make major decisions.
So after being busy for a while, Ye Tianming finally had some free time and could play the game properly.
Because he was too busy recently, his game character has fallen behind the progress of the entire server.
Fortunately, Ye Tianming had a solution.
He directly hired several members of dungeon guilds to help him run dungeons, clearing his daily dungeon attempts and handling all the events. That wasn't all; Ye Tianming also spent money to buy up the output of various dungeons.
Especially the incomplete martial arts manuals.
This is what Ye Tianming wanted most, since the only way to learn divine skills in advance was to collect martial arts fragments.
However, the district where Ye Tianming is located is currently the most popular district.
There are six big spenders in this area who have recharged tens of millions of yuan!
There are countless others who have spent millions on in-game purchases.
The entire district is full of whales who spend money to buy incomplete scrolls. Even though Ye Tianming has a lot of money, the output of a district is limited, and he really can't keep up with these whales who bought them in advance.
So Ye Tianming came up with a solution.
He simply let the ghost ninjas he summoned also play the game.
These ghost ninjas have a simple task: to run dungeons every day, clear all their dungeon attempts, and see if they can get lucky and find the martial arts fragments they want in the dungeon completion chests.
Just then, Ye Tianming had scattered these ghost ninjas to collect evil souls.
But now the Reaper's Ring has reached its limit.
