Chapter 721 The second pot of gold

In the evening, Chen Mo moved an IBM desktop computer with ultra-high configuration in 2001 to Wan Xuebing.

Wan Xuebing touched the desktop computer, his eyes glowing green!

"I'll go, 512mb of memory, Pentium 3 processor..."

"This costs at least 30,000 yuan, right?"

Chen Mo smiled and said: "If a worker wants to do his job well, he must first sharpen his tools."

"By the way, have you played MapleStory?"

Wan Xuebing said proudly: "Of course I have played it! I played it as soon as the closed beta started! When there was no recharge system at the beginning, I topped the first place in our district!"

"That's great!"

Chen Mo asked Wan Xuebing to turn on the computer and start talking about his needs to the "MapleStory" game interface:

"I need you to make a plug-in like this..."

After Chen Mo finished describing his needs, Wan Xuebing said nonchalantly: "That's it? Just wait, I will make the first version for you tonight!"

Chen Mo sighed in his heart, he is worthy of being the number one hacker in the future!

If it were done by Ma Teng and his group, it would take at least a week for more than a dozen people to make this plug-in!

"Brother Chen, you made a cheat, how do you want to make money? Do you want to make your own account and make money?" Wan Xuebing even had the energy to ask Chen Mo questions while typing the code.

In fact, during the internal testing of "MapleStory", Xixi Plug-in Studio had already established a plug-in industry chain.

Production and development, channel distribution, testing and maintenance, terminal sales, every link has to make money. Not to mention that Chen Mo has no ability to establish a channel network that sells millions of copies a month. Even if there is a ready-made network in front of him, the profit If you divide it evenly, if you sell millions of copies a month, it would be great if you can get 30%.

In 2001, the payment method was very single. Internet payment had not yet been developed. Jack Ma had not even built a payout platform, let alone various convenient payment software.

Therefore, the current payment bottleneck in the Internet era is very big. Even for online games such as Chen Mo's "Legend" and "Journey", point card sales have to rely on offline sales channels in countless Internet cafes across the country, and there is no way to achieve online transactions. .

At present, most plug-ins are sold on a monthly basis.

And the sales terminals are all in Internet cafes!

Plug-in distributors will develop cooperation with Internet cafes across the country, just like Internet cafes sell physical point cards on behalf of others, providing monthly passwords for the plug-ins they sell on behalf of themselves, so that players can directly purchase plug-in monthly passwords at Internet cafes.

If he were not taking exams and transforming into Mo Chen, with just one phone call from Chen Mo, Shan Ji could directly open up the sales channels of Internet cafes across the country and become the sales leader in the plug-in industry in one fell swoop!

But now, he is Mo Chen, and he only has himself and Wan Xuebing, how can he possibly open up nationwide channels? It’s simply a fantasy!

So Chen Mo had already planned.

He plans to open a 7-day free trial period directly after the plug-in is developed.

Although online payment is not yet open, in this era of savage growth of the Internet, the spread of free things can be said to be the speed of light!

This plug-in I made is the most powerful plug-in effect of all "MapleStory" in the previous life!

In actual use, the function and speed are more than ten times that of Xixi plug-in. At the same time, it treats users as internet novices and creates products that even a fool can use!

The effect of comprehensive use must be to beat Xixi's plug-in!

It's free and easy to use. No matter how hard Chen Mo tries to promote it, users will have no reason to spend money on inferior products.

In this way, he will have a huge impact on Xixi plug-in studios and other sporadic plug-in studios.

Chen Mo's method is actually very damaging. It is like ruining the pot at the very beginning and directly abolishing the stable plug-in sales ecological chain that has been established. It is just like Chen Mo's Moxiang Security Manager before, which directly provides free anti-virus. It is a routine that has destroyed countless anti-virus software such as Yinshan.

Once a plug-in studio like Xixi Plug-in that already has a business model encounters a crisis, they will definitely not sit still and wait for death. After all, with sales of hundreds of millions a month, no one will watch it slip away from their fingertips.

In this case, there are only two choices before them: 1. Immediately develop a more powerful plug-in than the one made by Chen Mo.

2. Find cooperation with Chen Mo.

The possibility of the former is infinitely close to 0!

How can Wan Xuebing's programming skills, coupled with Chen Mo's solution that integrates the advantages of all plug-ins from the previous life, be comparable to this group of unprofessional plug-in developers?

Then, the only choice they have is to cooperate with Chen Mo!

At this time, Chen Mo would directly ask Xixi Plug-in Studio to buy out his plug-in and let them sell it through his existing channels.

In fact, in the long run, if you want to make more money, you still have to engage in sharing cooperation.

But how much profit can the plug-in make?

The total channels across the country are worth 1 billion!

If it weren't for the assessment, Chen Mo wouldn't even bother to look at this low-end business!

Moreover, what Chen Mo knows is that in the future, Xixi Plug-in Studio will be arrested by the police because it brought down "MapleStory" and offended domestic companies.

Chen Mo is still in the assessment period, so of course it is impossible for him to be implicated because of this.

It was three o'clock in the morning that day.

Chen Mo was still sleeping when he heard the doorbell ding-dong-ding-dong.

"It's done! Brother Chen, I've done it!!! Hehe!"

Wan Xuebing proudly pulled Chen Mo to look at the cheat he had made.

Chen Mo used it and the effect was really awesome.

"This plug-in, I call it "MapleStory King" v1.0 free trial version! "

Chen Mo nodded and praised: "Well done!"

After a pause, Chen Mo continued: "But Xiao Wan, I have to tell you something. Is there anyone who pulls the boss up at three o'clock in the morning to look at the product? If I didn't have a good temper, I would have to blow your head off! "

Young Wan Xuebing stuck out his tongue, rubbed his head in embarrassment and said with a smile: "Boss, this is my first profitable product. I'm not very excited about it! You must pay attention next time!"

"You go back to sleep, and I will optimize the plug-in."

Chen Mo said angrily: "Let's sleep! Now I can't sleep at all!"

"You go optimize the product, and I'll find some trolls to promote it online."

Chen Mo turned on his computer and went to one of the most popular forums for "MapleStory" and posted a post: "I am a student and my family is poor. I beg you GG and MM to introduce a free plug-in for "MapleStory"!"

It is indeed the most popular online game in Daxia.

Even in the early hours of the morning, as soon as Chen Mo's attractive post was posted, it immediately received hundreds of hits:

"What do you want to do? Today's plug-ins are quite expensive, how can they be free?"

"The word begging is quite interesting!"

"Students, just study hard and play online games!"

"I do know of a free plug-in, but the function is so poor that there is not much difference between using it and not using it."

"Just go to sleep, you will have everything in your dreams."

"..."

In short, most of the replies were mocking Chen Mo for dreaming.
