Rebirth of the Internet: Starting from Games

Chapter 226 Interview

On this day, Chen Hao received a request from Volkswagen Software to invite Chen Hao for an exclusive interview.

Since Century Interactive Entertainment now has a close relationship with Volkswagen Software, Chen Hao was embarrassed to shirk it, so he accepted the other party's invitation.

On March 3, Volkswagen Software Chief Editor Xu Wenhan brought a staff member to Chen Hao’s chairman’s office as scheduled.

It has been more than a year since the two last met.

Although they didn't meet much, the two of them had communicated on the phone a lot before, so they were quite familiar with each other. After some pleasantries.

This interview is mainly related to Century Interactive Entertainment’s previous updates, and I want to know the true thoughts of the initiator.

Before starting the interview, Xu Wenhan showed the questions he wanted to ask this time to Chen Hao in advance, and the latter glanced at them and said there was no problem.

The staff behind Xu Wenhan set up the camera and started the recording equipment. He walked aside and picked up the camera hanging around his neck, ready to take pictures at any time. He was very professional.

The interview lasted about an hour.

After the end, the two reached some consensus on the follow-up cooperation between Century Interactive Entertainment and Volkswagen Software. Xu Wenhan said that he would give feedback to the above and then left.

Two days later, the latest issue of "Popular Software" was released. Now, in addition to the magazine, Popular Software also comes with a CD.

This includes the exclusive interview video with Chen Hao in this issue.

At this time, apart from playing games, other online entertainment methods are still relatively scarce.

Internet literature has just emerged, and video websites have not yet been created because network conditions are not yet available.

Therefore, computer magazines have become one of these people’s pastimes. After consumers buy the magazines, when they get tired of playing games, they read game guides, game reports, and watch videos.

On this day, Lin Xuewen came back from get off work and stopped by the newsstand to buy the latest issue of "Popular Software".

Looking at the computer that was running in the rental house, most of the anime "Naruto" was downloaded on FTP. He now saw that the Chunin exam was about to take place. Xiao Li had just opened the fifth door, which was amazing, and then nothing happened.

I plan to take a look at what is in the popular software CD and try it out.

Half an hour later, after trying some of the game’s promotional videos and trial mini-games, I felt like they were just okay, eh?There is also a video interview at the back.

Originally there was not much to read in an interview, but when he saw that the magazine contained an exclusive interview with the CEO of Century Interactive Entertainment?You have to take a look at this great guy.

Double-click to play, and in the exclusive interview video, a gentle scum wearing glasses appears on the computer screen. Lin Xuewen rubs his chin. The CEO of Century Interactive Entertainment is quite handsome, almost catching up with him.

"From the year before last to now, an online game company has emerged. It has successively acted as an agent or produced a number of popular online games. There are even rumors that the products produced by Century will be high-quality products. Therefore, Dazhong Software is very lucky to invite the directors of Century Zongheng Group this time. Mr. Chen Hao, the director, is conducting this exclusive interview. I also ask Mr. Chen to say hello to everyone."

"Hello, everyone, I am Chen Hao."

"As we all know, Century Interactive Entertainment made a major update a few days ago, which somewhat subverted people's perceptions. There are also character skins for playing games. I wonder how Director Chen came up with this idea?"

"Why did you come up with this idea? I was shopping when I saw all kinds of beautiful clothes on the street, and I suddenly got inspiration. Although life is colorful in reality, the characters in the game are so single. I feel This was not good, so I discussed it with the company employees, and it became natural for the game characters to have skins."

"Can Mr. Chen introduce the significance of game skins to the game?"

<divclass="contentadv">"Good question. In fact, I divide players into two categories, those who spend money and those who don't. Take Three Kingdoms OL as an example. In the past, we could only know it when players played against each other or checked player information. He also has these awesome cards, and he’s a RMB player.

Now it’s convenient, you can see a certain economic strength through game skins.Firstly, game skins are good-looking and add freshness to players; secondly, they show a certain economic strength; thirdly, they are different from others. They are the same as everyone else. When playing games, players must be different and show their personality, so the skins are given such meaning. "

"However, recently I have heard some players complain about timeliness. For example, a skin has different validity periods of 7 days, 30 days, etc. I wonder if Director Chen has anything to say?"

"Everything has two sides. It depends on how you look at it. The permanent price of a set of skins does seem expensive to everyone, but you get what you pay for. For example, the exquisiteness of a general's skin is directly proportional to the energy spent on designing the artist. Yes, the workload may be several times that of the ordinary default skin.

Therefore, you can also see that the prices of skins are not the same. They are all fairly calculated by algorithms based on the exquisiteness of the picture and the cost.

You can regard the 7th day as a trial package. The price is very cheap and usually only costs a few yuan. It is like falling in love before marriage. After confirming the relationship, both parties will try it out and be satisfied within 7 days. Then they can continue to be together until a certain moment. Decide to get married (permanent term), otherwise you can stop the loss with a small cost.

Of course, our official website also has previews of all skins, so you can plan ahead. Here is a friendly reminder to all players: Consume rationally and avoid impulsive consumption~

In fact, to put it bluntly, this thing is similar to the current domestic real estate. The country has previously introduced corresponding mortgage policies for buying houses. With a small down payment, you can own a house of your own in advance and enjoy corresponding services.But few people do this at present. This is a deep-rooted concept problem that requires everyone to slowly change. "

Speaking of this, Chen Hao paused, adjusted his glasses, stared at the camera and said, "In fact, domestic housing prices are generally rising. The above policy is very good. It might be a good thing for everyone to change their minds."

"Last question, did Mr. Chen just graduate? Why didn't he choose to work in a company like ordinary people, but instead came up with the idea of ​​starting a business and becoming his own boss? And it's also a game?"

"Of course I read it because of the rise of online games. Just kidding, because you can only make big money by being a boss. As for why you choose games? Of course it's because I like playing games. I call myself a senior and avid game fan. There is also a nickname for Game Encyclopedia in my hometown.

And games can bring joy and happiness to people. In today’s increasingly cruel real world, people need a virtual safe haven, so Century Interactive Entertainment emerged.

In the game world, you can do what you want, a brave man, a knight, a traveler. You can choose to fight monsters, play cards, and enjoy the scenery. Here you have friends, masters, and apprentices. My partner has everything you want.

As our company's Solgen said, create happiness with heart, Century Interactive Entertainment is responsible for making games with heart, and the majority of players are responsible for happiness. "

Lin Xuewen, after reading it, I can feel that the other party is still very candid, and what he said about the game makes some sense.

But what do you mean if you don't even give me the beta code for a martial arts OL?

However, he scoffed at the other party's suggestion of encouraging mortgage purchases. Although he could afford 20 with his whole family's efforts, the current house prices in Shanghai are basically around 5000, so he could barely make a down payment here. What about the follow-up?

Assume that within 20 years of the loan, he will pay back about [-] yuan a month. His current monthly salary is only about [-] yuan. After paying off the loan, it will only be enough to eat and drink, not even enough to buy clothes and watch movies. Oh, and I have not taken into account the rent and mortgage. He couldn't even pay the rent after buying a house.

It seems that Mr. Chen, a wealthy man, doesn’t know how hungry a man is when he is hungry. He has long since abandoned his vulgar taste. He has to drink the northwest wind to listen to him.

It's better to wait until you have saved enough money before considering buying a house. Besides, I don't even have a girlfriend, so there is no need to rush to buy a house.

He shook his head, Lin Xuewen, Lin Xuewen, you think too much.

What a hard day's work.

He put on his headphones, opened the World Travel Platform and the YY Online Game Essentials Set, started the Three Kingdoms OL game, and played two games to relax before going to eat.

If he doesn't play games every day, he feels that his day is incomplete, that something is missing, and that he has nothing to lose.

For him, gaming has become as integral a part of his daily life as eating and sleeping.
