Chapter 161 Soaring Downloads, Lin Yuze: Honey, are you still awake?

"The chairman's app has now been downloaded 140 million times."

Around one o'clock in the morning, Lin Yuze nodded after hearing this.

The number of downloads reached 470 million in five hours, which is quite good. However, if you want to continue downloading, you'll probably have to wait until other promotional activities are in place.

"Okay, this data is quite satisfactory in our opinion. The technical department must keep a close eye on the game. If any bugs appear, they must be fixed immediately and not delayed for too long."

"Understood. Don't worry, the technical department is on duty 24/7. If any problems arise, we will definitely fix them as soon as possible."

Everyone, from top to bottom, takes this game very seriously because if something goes wrong with it, it will have a huge impact on everyone's income. So you can see how much importance these people attach to it.

Lin Yuze left the company around 2 a.m. Before that, he had told Su Rui to rest and not to wait for him.

When they returned to the villa, the living room lights were still on. When Lin Yuze opened the door, he found Su Rui sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper. Lin Yuze was slightly taken aback upon seeing this.

"Why aren't you resting? Didn't I just message you to go to bed early?"

After hearing this, Su Rui glanced at Lin Yuze.

"How can I sleep when you haven't come back? How's it going? Is the data okay?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuze nodded.

"The data is indeed quite good."

As Lin Yuze spoke, he took off his coat and placed it next to the sofa. Then, he sat down next to Su Rui and put his arm around his wife.

"You didn't do something to betray me, so you came back and hugged me, did you?"

"What could I possibly do to betray my senior? At most, I just watched some games and let loose a little?"

Upon hearing this, Su Rui blushed slightly and gently patted Lin Yuze.

"I've noticed that you've become much bolder since we got married. You wouldn't have dared to say this before we got married."

"What? Where? It's because my wife spoils me so much that I can be so unrestrained and direct. The download count has already reached over 400 million. When I left, it should have reached 490 million. I estimate that the download count should reach 1000 million in 24 hours. As for how many people will stay, it depends on the quality. I expect to have specific data by this morning. I hope it's a good start."

"This data is pretty good. At least it proves that your game is quite attractive. As for how many people will stay and play this game, I think it should be pretty good as well."

"Yeah, how are you? Go get some rest, do you want your husband to coax you to sleep?"

At this moment, Lin Yuze glanced at Su Rui's phone, which was running a game—the very game his company had just released. Seeing this, Lin Yuze was slightly taken aback, because in his memory, his senior wasn't the type to enjoy playing games. It seemed she had specifically downloaded the game to support their data.

"I was just feeling a bit bored, so I downloaded this game to play."

At this moment, Su Rui also noticed that Lin Yuze seemed to have discovered that she was playing their company's game, so she quickly explained. After hearing this, Lin Yuze smiled.

"I understand, it must be because my senior wants to support her husband's career, that's why she did that."

In fact, Lin Yuze was quite moved. After all, he had lived two lives and was always in a state of being unloved by his family and relatives. In his previous life, no one was willing to support him from beginning to end. His wife, whom he thought he loved very much, betrayed him cruelly in the end.

Moreover, due to various reforms within the Qin family company, the Qin family treated him somewhat poorly. He never expected to meet such a wife after his rebirth. Lin Yuze was genuinely happy and moved. Having been alone for so long, he truly longed for love.

"Silly boy, you're still my husband. If I don't support you, who else can I support? Really."

After saying this, Su Rui hugged Lin Yuze tightly.

"No matter what happens in the future, we will be husband and wife as one. No matter what challenges we face, we will face them together. And I believe you will be able to do everything you want to do."

"Oh, senior, how about you consider wearing something a little more unique?"

"Then forget it, I'll just say no directly."

"But my senior just said she could let me do anything I want."

"Then this one won't work either."

The two exchanged a smile, everything understood without a word.

Since it was already quite late, the two of them washed up and went to bed. Lin Yuze woke up around 11 a.m. the next day. At this time, there were many messages on his phone, which seemed to be about data. If there was any problem with the game, they would definitely call Lin Yuze. Before going to bed the night before, Lin Yuze had made sure to set his phone to normal so that it would wake him up if a call came in.

At this moment, Lin Yuze opened his phone and checked the data. The download count had reached 1100 million, which was an absolutely phenomenal achievement for a new game from a new company. Sure enough, after the marketing efforts of those other companies began, this number soared.

However, this data is not what Lin Yuze cares about most right now; the data he cares about most is definitely active users.

No matter how many downloads you get, if you can't retain any players, it's definitely not going to work, because nobody will be playing your game. So how will you make a profit then? Therefore, what's even more important is active users. If you can reach 1000 million active users, or even 1000 million per day, then your game can truly be called a money-making monster. Want to make as much money as you want? It's just a matter of releasing a few more skins.

The data on active users is now available. According to the company's summary, there are currently 300 million players online at the same time, of which 190 million have been playing for more than two consecutive hours. This is quite a remarkable figure.

Su Rui had also woken up at this time. Seeing Lin Yuze looking at his phone, she leaned closer. This kind of data must be top secret information, but how could she not let her wife see it when she was next to her?

"Your data is already quite impressive."

"Yeah, so now we're just waiting for the right time to start reaping the rewards from the players. Maybe this game will propel us straight into the Forbes list."

"Actually, if this data continues to grow, and your active users reach around 2000 million, you'll already be able to break into the Forbes list, and a pretty high one at that. So, honey, keep it up! Maybe one day your net worth will surpass mine."

"Well, that's probably not realistic. Anyway, I'm determined to live off this woman for the rest of my life, so you can't dump me."

"If I dump you, you're much closer to your family than I am now. If I dump you, my parents might kick me out of the house."

After all, the two of them are now husband and wife, and it's just the two of them here alone, so it's just a joke.

…………

Over the next week or so, this game caused a sensation across the country. It's no exaggeration to say that it's currently the most popular game, with 4600 million downloads. Although it hasn't reached its maximum target yet, it has 2600 million daily active users. These active users log in to the game for more than an hour every day. If you include those who log in to receive rewards, the current user base has reached 3000 million.

"Chairman, we have compiled the sales figures for these skins. The total sales for all of them are 1.7 million."

"We have a total of 11 characters in our game. Currently, these are the three characters that we have found to be the most popular. I think we can continue to design for these three characters and release products for them, such as skins."

This also shows that their initial prediction was quite accurate, because these three people were initially highly rated within the company, and they were made into their core promotional focus. And now it seems that their prediction was remarkably accurate.

"I don't think we can release the skins right away. It would make us look greedy. The game should focus on the storyline from now on. We need to keep more people playing the game. Once they're in the game, there will be many ways to make money in the future. Also, several characters will be released one after another. We've put a lot of effort into these characters, so the storyline absolutely cannot have any problems."

Lin Yuze understood the current situation very well. He felt that making money was important, but the timing of making money was also important. If making money was involved at this time, it would really cause many people to quit the game. Any free game would have the most players. Therefore, when they released this game, they considered things more carefully, and the game's balance was done quite well.

If you spend money on in-game purchases, your overall gaming experience will be quite good. However, if you don't spend money, there's no problem; you can still play the game, although your progress will be slightly slower. This caters to both paying and free-to-play players.

If a game only has paying players, its influence will be relatively low. If it only has free players, its revenue will be greatly reduced. So, a delicate balance must be struck between the two. Unless you can generate tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands in profit from a single player, like some games do, even those games wouldn't dare to say 100% that they don't need free players. If they did, the game would collapse.

"Understood. You've thought things through quite thoroughly. The technical department has already started developing new storylines, and we expect to release the follow-up storylines in about three months."

"Yes, this storyline is very important. It can be said to serve as a bridge between the past and the future. We have already released 15 chapters of game content, which should give players three to six months to enjoy. When we release new content at that time, it will be a seamless transition for us."

Lin Yuze was quite satisfied with the arrangement. He could only say that the technical department was indeed quite dedicated, which explained why Lin Yuze paid them such high salaries. After all, with such employees, one should definitely retain them with high salaries.

"Tell the tech department that they've worked hard over there and that their salaries will increase by 30%."

No matter how much you comfort them verbally, the most important thing is still money. As long as you give them the money they deserve, they will definitely work hard. If you don't give them money and only give them verbal rewards, they will feel uncomfortable to some extent.

"Okay, I understand. We'll go and announce it now."

"Yes, just announce it directly. I'll talk to the finance department."

In fact, the number of employees in their company has increased. Currently, the entire company's game department, animation department, and peripheral design department together have nearly 150 employees, but this number is still not too many.

Many companies have hundreds of thousands of employees when you add them all up. However, such companies are definitely true behemoths. For example, Su Shi Investment Group has nearly 70 employees across its subsidiaries.

It's easy to imagine how huge this company is; it's almost equivalent to the total population of a small county. If you include families, it's like a prefecture-level city. Lin Yuze is far from that number.
