MTL - Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading-Chapter 20 The surge of the studio
Haicheng University Town, Chunyang Road, Battle Internet Cafe.
This Internet cafe has two floors. There are more than 60 computers on the first floor, which are open to the public.
There are more than 50 computers on the second floor, but they are not open to the public and are specialized in game studios.
Battle Internet Cafe was established in the first few years of online games, and Internet access costs were relatively high. Internet cafe owner Li Hai and second shareholder Li Yang made a lot of money in the early years and bought this building.
In recent years, more and more investors have entered the Internet cafe industry.
Not to mention other places, in their university town, a university adjacent to their Internet cafe, there are no less than ten Internet cafes outside the campus. Competition is fierce, Internet access costs have dropped, and profits are getting lower and lower.
In addition, the proportion of students buying computers is getting higher and higher. If it is not for a lively atmosphere, they seldom go to Internet cafes to surf the Internet.
Make some cash!
Brothers Li Hai and Li Yang often complain.
Therefore, Zhan Zhan Internet Cafe was transformed two years ago.
Dozens of computers on the second floor of the Internet cafe are used as game studios.
The first floor is still open to the outside world as usual, maintaining the bottom line of the Internet cafe.
If the game studio on the second floor is not operating well, you can go back to the Internet cafe.
In 2008, there were two main ways for game studios to make money. One was boosting, that is, helping players upgrade and charging fees. Like the Z way, the upgrade relies on the monsters, and the phenomenon of hanging monsters is particularly common.
The other is to open more game accounts and hang up to play game coins, be a farmer, and sell the game coins to players to earn RMB.
Those who know how to do it go to foreign servers to make money from foreigners, and M yuan is more cost-effective.
At present, they are running two games, one is the very popular Z-way game, and the other is Fantasy Westward Journey.
There are still two Internet cafes like them that have transformed from traditional Internet cafes to studios. There are hundreds of cities and thousands of counties across the country. It is conceivable that there are many game studios.
Of course, not every city or county will have a game studio, but conservatively, there will be hundreds of studios.
Li Hai and Li Yang have been paying attention to new online games. Diablo 3 is the game that Blizzard, the world's top game company, has pushed for this year.
However, progress has not been very good.
Diablo 3's gold withdrawal rate is too low, barely enough to repair equipment, and the money is returned to the game platform. If you go to the elite monsters, it is easy to die. If you die twice, you have to repair the equipment once, which is not worthwhile.
Some time ago, the price of gold coins was relatively high, especially some time ago, a few pieces of gold could not be produced.
So far, they haven't found a suitable way to earn gold, so they just bought three game numbers to try out Pathfinder without investing a lot of money.
"Boss, look at this post, Ma Dan, it turns out that this is how you swipe coins and earn thousands of dollars a day!" Li Yang was browsing the game forum, "This thing is easy to understand, but those who don't know it just don't."
Li Hai came over to look at the post, and the more he looked, the more surprised he became, but after the surprise, the more uneasy he became.
The map and method of gold mining have just been exposed. If they discovered it, of course they had to keep a low profile and make a fortune, how could it be exposed.
"Whether the method of posting is feasible or not, let's try it first, so don't be fooled." Li Hai calmed down and took the test in person.
Half an hour later, Li Hai and Li Yang tested it according to the method of the post, and they can indeed brush gold, and the efficiency is very high.
According to the post, if you buy equipment that increases the gold drop rate, the efficiency will be faster. After calculating, if you can hang up the phone for 24 hours, you can indeed earn six or seven thousand gold coins for one account a day.
The two checked the current gold coin price, 1 gold and 50 cents. The studio was still selling it. The number of sales orders had already been thousands. This was just one of the accounts. There were three or four such accounts listed for sale.
They have been jealous of this mysterious studio from the very beginning, but they have never been able to find a way to make money.
Let's take a look at the price of gold brushing equipment in the game auction house. It is not cheap. Increase the gold drop rate by 30% and sell it for 350 yuan. The higher the drop rate, the more expensive the price.
"Boss, can we do it? One account is three or four thousand dollars a day. If we have dozens or hundreds of game accounts." Li Yang was so excited that he felt the red bills in front of him.
"Second, calm down, okay? Our on-hook software hasn't come out yet, so we can only do it manually, and we have to spend money to buy equipment. What's more, one person can only swipe one account, and two people take turns to swipe desperately for a day. It is very good to be able to brush four or five thousand gold coins."
"The labor cost is low. We can recruit students right away. It costs 50 yuan a day, and many people do it. The initial investment is a bit large, but in just two days, we will earn equipment money, and it will be profitable in the future."
Li Hai was excited by what the second child said. If it was a day later, he would make less money for a day. After thinking for a while, he felt that he was in trouble, and his mind was a little confused. He was also attracted by the amazing profit rate, and it was difficult to calm down.
One pat on the thigh, immediately decided:
"Okay, you can do it, but you have to act immediately, and you will lose thousands of dollars in money an hour later. First, you will immediately buy qualified game numbers to upgrade, recruit people, and take out 25 computers to enter Diablo 3. First, start with the Z-way project personnel. Pick two people, the rest are business as usual, we can't put our whole body into it until we make money."
"Also, you can use your previous game number to buy game currency first, and purchase gold-sweeping equipment."
Li Hai is depressed, this game can't be played multiple times on one machine, at most one machine can be played on two machines, otherwise there is no need to spend money to buy some gold equipment.
But the problem of opening more than one machine has also come. It takes time to upgrade the game number. UU reading www.uukanshu. Com takes up the computer and memory, and increases the workload of management. It is indeed not as convenient and fast as buying gold brushing equipment.
A set of equipment that increases the drop rate of money by 300% is equivalent to opening 3 more game accounts without increasing the drop rate of money, and it will cost more than 1,000 yuan for just three game accounts.
Spending more than one thousand and several hundred dollars has reduced a lot of trouble. Compared with the speed of making money, it is nothing at all. Time is money!
Don't think about it anymore, let's get started!
Three or four thousand yuan for a set of equipment?
Throw money!
Lao Tzu will be able to make a return in a few days, and I am afraid of a woolen thread.

A soft article about Diablo 3's gold brushing was announced, and it was heated up by the navy.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the studio that had been following the game forum to discover this rare opportunity to make a fortune and purchase a lot of equipment.
I can't wait!
For this Diablo 3 game, most studios will prepare dozens of computers to buy gold, and it is normal to have dozens of game accounts, even hundreds of game accounts. Yes, these studios want to create hundreds or thousands of game accounts.
Dozens of game accounts also require hundreds of pieces of gold equipment.
And among so many game studios across the country, the studios that are already optimistic about this game and are ready to invest funds to settle in,
Or have entered Diablo 3, just found a way to brush gold, and are ready to increase investment in the studio.
But they never imagined that there is such a big hole waiting for them to jump in.
After jumping in, he was still ecstatic, and when he found out that the gold coin was rapidly depreciating, it was too late to withdraw, and he was in a dilemma.
