Chapter 73: Willing to Gamble and Lose
After "My Name is MT" stood in the top five best-selling mobile games in the official app market, everyone had to admit that this "free game" was really profitable.
Even more than most high-priced buyout games!
Half surprised, half puzzled.
Many designers can't figure it out.,It's obviously just a small game of more than 100M.,The quality is not very high.,Player evaluation is average.,Even if there's an anime to warm up,It's impossible to crush the big channel of the Imperial Dynasty game platform with just one animation!
But "My Name is MT" just crushed "Guardian of the Holy Spring", and it nearly doubled the monthly flow.
The designers who originally looked down on this game have downloaded and studied its success.
And those game media have once again worked overtime because of Chen Mo's game.
On the last day of the month, the contract expires.
The final sales of "Guardian of the Holy Spring" were 890,000 copies, with a monthly turnover of 8.9 million. And the monthly flow of "My Name is MT", Chen Mo also announced, 23 million!
Directly crushed more than twice as much, or even nearly three times!
Soon, the manuscripts of the major game media came out one after another.
"Gambling Results: Chen Mo Wins the Imperial Dynasty Mutual Entertainment!" 》
"My name is MT mobile game, with a monthly turnover of 23 million, ranking among the top five on the best-selling list!" 》
"Revealing the Secret of My Profit Called MT, the Secret of "Free Games"
"The local tyrant throws a lot of money in this game"
"2000 yuan a card? You read that right, it's a free game"
"There is an imperial game platform and loses! Where did the Guardians of the Holy Spring lose? 》
"Qiu Bin has not spoken yet, can he honor the recommended position? 》
"Chen Mo scolded on Weibo, and he has not yet come forward to respond to players' questions"
An "Unfair" Game? 》
"Popular Science: How much income can I bring to the maker by calling MT? 》
Expert Review: A game that makes fun by spending money is not a good game! 》
……
There are manuscripts from all angles, and basically the same as player reviews, with mixed reviews. Some were shocked by the number of downloads and monthly turnover of My Name is MT, while others questioned the game's monetization model.
If this month's turnover is placed in Chen Mo's previous life, it is nothing, "My name is MT" back then was 55 million monthly flow, not to mention the 200 million "Dota Legend" and 3 billion "Glory of Kings".
But the parallel world is different, the mainstream profit model of mobile games here is still to sell sales, if you want to raise the monthly turnover to the level of 20 million, you have to sell 2 million copies of the game a month, even if the unit price is 20 yuan, then you have to sell 1 million copies.
Selling so much in a month is easier said than done!
Therefore, after "My Name is MT" stood in the top five of the best-selling list, many game media were shocked by the revenue of this game, and it entered the top five of the best-selling list in the first month of its launch, and it also entered with a low rating of about 7 points, which can go down in history, okay!
The game of earning money while being scolded is also unique!
With the increasing popularity of "My Name is MT", the name Chen Mo is also known by more and more people.
"Plants vs. Zombies" was also very popular before, with high quality and good reviews, but it was not typical enough. It's also a sell-by-share game, and the idea is really great, but it's nowhere near as surprising as My Name is MT for people in this world.
Free to play.
Unfair, sell combat power.
Earn money while being scolded.
The three characteristics of "My Name is MT" all flaunt their alternative identities for practitioners and players to study repeatedly.
……
The two people who were on the cusp of the storm did not come out to tear up as some people expected.
After the monthly turnover data of "My Name is MT" came out, Qiu Bin posted a Weibo for the first time, the content of Weibo is very simple, only four words: "I am willing to gamble and lose".
And Chen Mo also posted a Weibo.
"Thank you players for your continued love, the blade doesn't need to be sent anymore, I understand very much that everyone wants me to shave more and maintain a handsome image, but I can't get enough in the experience store."
The players were all happy when they saw it, they had never seen such a brazen person! Is that what you were told to shave?
"I've never seen such a brazen designer!"
"Where's the showroom? I'm going to come to the door with a knife! ”
"Every lottery that likes me gets a purple card."
"Urging! When will the third season of the anime be out!! ”
"Still have time to tweet? Don't get out of here to update the Azeroth universe! ”
"The spicy chicken game ruined my youth, cost me money, return the money!"
"Add my friends who play MT, account XXXXXX ......"
There are all kinds of things, but most of them are "blessings" of "sincerity and friendliness".
To everyone's surprise, Chen Mo and Qiu Bin didn't tear up at all, Chen Mo didn't get unforgiving, Qiu Bin didn't admit defeat, and the two sides seemed to pass lightly.
This made many people who had already moved to Xiaomazha and bought melon seed drinks very dissatisfied.
I thought I could have a lively look, but I took off my pants and told me that this was the end of it?
However, dissatisfaction is dissatisfaction, the protagonists on both sides have stopped, and fans can't make trouble anymore, so this matter has come to an end on Weibo for the time being.
What the people who eat melons don't know is that an undercurrent is slowly sweeping the entire game circle.
……
Imperial Dynasty Mutual Entertainment Headquarters.
Qiu Bin handed the resignation letter to Lin Zhaoxu's desk with both hands.
Lin Zhaoxu looked up at Qiu Bin, then pressed the resignation letter and pushed it back.
Qiu Bin was stunned: "Mr. Lin, this ......"
Lin Zhaoxu said: "Isn't it just a recommended position, give it to him." ”
Qiu Bin was a little ashamed: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, I ......"
Lin Zhaoxu waved his hand, signaling that he didn't need to say anything more.
"It's not all bad. At the very least, you've helped the Emperor uncover a potential threat. ”
Lin Zhaoxu stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window next to the desk, looked at the scenery outside and said: "If it weren't for this matter, it might take us half a year or even a year to discover the huge energy of this Chen Mo. ”
Qiu Bin's heart warmed, he originally thought that Lin Zhaoxu would be furious, and he was even ready to resign, but as a result, Lin Zhaoxu was not angry at all.
Sure enough, the people who can single-handedly create such a behemoth as imperial and dynastic entertainment have extraordinary strength and foresight.
Lin Zhaoxu said: "You don't have to worry about the recommendation position, I will ask someone to contact that Chen Mo." ”
Qiu Bin bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”
Lin Zhaoxu came to Qiu Bin: "However, there is still something you need to do." ”
Qiu Bin asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Lin Zhaoxu said seriously: "According to "My Name is MT", I will make another flipping game. ”
Qiu Bin was stunned: "Do it again?" ”
Lin Zhaoxu nodded: "Hmm." If you are worried about the pressure of public opinion, you can publish it without your own name, just find a C-level designer below to hang your name. But this new game has to be up to you, and I hope it will be played to the same level as My Name is MT. ”
Qiu Bin hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Yes, I understand." ”
Qiu Bin put away the resignation letter on the table and left Lin Zhaoxu's president's office.
