I'm almost a Muggle

"Boss, do you already know that you are so happy?" Su Tong was surprised to see on the side. The boss just woke up, but it seemed that he already knew everything.

"What do you know?" Lin Dong didn't understand.

"The Jedi Chicken Eating" has passed the review." Su Tong took out a document and faxed it half an hour ago.

"Uh~uh~uh" Lin Dong didn't swallow a bun.

Su Tong quickly handed Lin Dong's soy milk to him, which saved the wizard's life.

"Mr. Lin, don't you know?" Su Tong couldn't figure it out. You didn't know what you were having fun early in the morning.

I know a hammer.

"When did the matter suddenly pass the trial?" Lin Dong drank soy milk and finally recovered.

Aoluo, the elite of the wizard world, is the greatest wizard king in the world. If he is choked to death by a bun, he will be devastated.

And it's a vegetable bun.

"The review conclusion that I got this morning is now available for online." Su Tong handed over the document.

Lin Dong opened the document and saw the seal that made him dazzling.

It is not easy to get the version number of this game from Cat Factory. On the one hand, it is the nationality of the game production team and the game content.

Logically speaking, there is almost no possibility of passing the review.

But this is a cat factory after all, and various departments keep saying hello and pleading. After being beaten back for the first time, the cat factory provided two modified versions, one for sale internally and the other for sale externally.

Especially the improved version is very sincere, at least within the psychological line of the review agency.

Finally, "Jedi Chicken Eater" passed the review and obtained the version number, and can be sold on the Meow You platform.

It seems very simple.

In fact, it is the result of efforts from multiple parties.

The batch of Blue Hole was great, worked overtime for several nights, and almost exhausted.

"Mr. Lin, everyone admires you very much. Some colleagues outside said that you spent 100 million yuan, but they bought a game that cannot be reviewed. They were just full. Now it seems that they are all wrong. Whether this game can make money or not, it at least shows your eyesight and courage." Su Tong never flatters her boss, she just conveys it mechanically.

She videoed with the company in the morning, and basically praised it.

"We need to do anti-addiction, especially this kind of game content that is both gun and kill. If there is any social news, we will be in trouble." Lin Dong sighed and began to set obstacles for this game that is said to be a hot seller.

A considerable number of players in the game are children. If you cut this piece, you will still become popular if you don’t believe it.

"I will convey your meaning to Director Xu Changlong." Su Tong nodded seriously.

"How is the platform doing now?" Lin Dong regrets making this game platform now, just like Jack regrets establishing Ali's father.

"Sorry, I'll connect you with Mr. Xu and Mr. Li now."

Su Tong rarely interferes with what she shouldn’t say or doesn’t understand enough. She called and operated it skillfully, and Xu Changlong and Li Changwei appeared on the computer screen.

Celebration can be postponed, and the boss is more important.

Lin Dong looked at the remaining buns, and finally decided to eat them while talking.

No matter how hard you are, you cannot be a stomachache or waste.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Lin wants to know how the Meow You platform is now?" Su Tong conveyed the question.

"Mr. Lin, there are 1,327 games on the Meow You platform now." Xu Changlong knew it well.

"Where is steam?" Lin Dong asked.

"From the data I got, in 2016, there were 4,207 games released on Steam, accounting for 38% of all Steam games at that time. This is a huge leap compared to the 2,964 games released in 2015 and the 1,772 games released in 2014. In 2013, only 565 games were released on Steam."

"We just started, we had 1,327 games?" Boss Lin was shocked.

"Mr. Lin, thanks to your insistence on building a platform, I have been thinking about something recently." Xu Changlong said with emotion: "In the past, I always felt that it was pirated that destroyed the stand-alone player. Some recent phenomena in Meow Games made me understand that actually determine the survival of the game is the channel."

"I..." I insisted on it wrong, I regret it very much.

"The old channel distribution model restricted the development of stand-alone games from multiple directions. Standalone games and personal computers were bound, directly restricting their own user groups and allowing users without computers to become non-target groups. The distribution model I had done before, which seriously increased the cost and scheduling difficulty..." Xu Changlong felt that after working in this industry for so many years, he was not as thorough as Mr. Lin, a layman.

Users are very lazy creatures. In addition to being cheap, they are also greedy for convenience.

Pirated disks can be installed with one click, but genuine games require CD-key to register, and even plug in CDs when playing.

The thing that ended up killing the pirated CD was not genuine, but downloaded online.

The Internet has killed the CD through a better experience than pirated versions, and players can get the game directly without even having to go out.

So, what is the way out for stand-alone?

It's a platform!

It is the platform that President Lin insists on building.

A few years ago, when online games and mobile games dominated the world, domestic stand-alone games actually showed signs of revival. Looking back now, it is actually the same result of channel updates.

In 2015, Steam supported Huaxia Coin payment, which directly changed the distribution model of domestic stand-alone games.

In fact, foreign stand-alone games have survived and developed to this day, on the one hand, because of the existence of the console platform, and on the other hand, because Steam.team has two characteristics that doom it to its extraordinaryness:

First, the entire process is connected.

Second, you can buy games online.

Players can not only buy online, but also exchange game experiences and recommend games here.

Through the centralized distribution of the steam platform, users can simply and directly complete the processes of "finding", "paying", "downloading" and "games".

Small game studios have gained the opportunity to release at low cost, users have gained convenience, and the difficulty of payment has been greatly reduced.

Of course, Steam has not really entered China.

The benefits of Chinese stand-alone games are not the biggest, and most of the ones that emerge on steam are foreign games.

Steam at most regards China as a market.

After Meowyou went online, it quickly won a group of stand-alone studios and paid players through channels far lower than Steam and strong promotion.

As Xu Changlong said, Miaoyou now has 1,327 games.

Among them, 1,191 are domestic games, while the rest are imported from abroad. The quality is generally far inferior to Steam, but the quantity is close to Steam's level in 2014.

This is definitely an excellent achievement for a freshman platform.

"What I admire most about you is that the platform has made some small studios that are not enough to make ends meet, and we have also made good profits from it." Xu Changlong finally flattered again.
