my app store

Chapter 22
Of course, Shen Yi wants his software to flourish everywhere. It is best to install his software on everyone's computers and mobile phones just like his own app store.

The only businesses that can make money now are the role of the computer housekeeper and the game that collects money. As for the comics, they have just been released, so there is no rush.

So far, that is, on Tuesday, he has earned 20 yuan from the Spark Computer Manager.

He is still fighting alone, deceiving his relatives and friends, his opponents, and netizens across the country.

Recently he discovered a very wonderful thing.

That is, my own game always has a certain period of time, the purchase volume soars, and the fluctuation is very large.

At 6 o'clock the sales volume was 240 units, at 7 o'clock 450 units were sold, and it just jumped back and forth.

When he looked at these accounts that purchased a large number of games, they were all surprisingly consistent, so he guessed that someone bought them uniformly.

There is only one possibility, and that is that Internet cafes are buying the game.

So he ran to the Internet cafe near the school to check out the situation.

He discovered one thing, the computer housekeeper he made has been installed in all Internet cafes.

Moreover, the Internet cafe also fully installed the genuine version of "Guangling's Bizarre Adventure", so he was very happy and asked the owner of the Internet cafe about the situation.

"Boss, how many people like to play this "Guangling's Bizarre Adventure" you're pretending to play?"

The owner of the Internet cafe is idle all day long, and the customers always turn to the network administrator for their needs.

Now seeing someone talking to me, I replied enthusiastically:
"There are quite a lot of people playing these days. I also found out about the Xinghuo computer manager before I found out that there is such a game."

"This game is not bad, I just installed everything on the computer."

"A lot of people have come to play this game recently."

"You seem to have more than 100 computers here?" Shen Yi looked at the size of this Internet cafe.

The owner of the Internet cafe smiled: "Yes, I only spent 500 in total, which is not expensive at all, and I bought all the images of that computer housekeeper."

"It's a pity that I didn't buy any of them. I asked the network administrator to buy them one by one, and I paid them when they were done."

Shen Yi really didn't expect that there would be such an Internet cafe owner.

Maybe his sudden surge in sales has something to do with the owners of these Internet cafes?
"This image isn't of much use. Just buy one."

"Hey, you don't know, my own home computer often has rogue software and advertisements, and I can't even turn them off."

"The computer I use cannot be shut down to clear the data, so this software has helped me a lot. As soon as I was happy, I bought all the computers in the Internet cafe."

"That's it." Shen Yi probably understood that his game seemed to be very popular in the market, and many Internet cafes thought this game was cheap, so they directly installed it.

In this way, many people who did not buy this game can spend money to play in Internet cafes.

Is this his loss?
No, because most of those who come to Internet cafes to play games do not have computers around them, or are unable to purchase them.

Even if they don't come to the Internet cafe to play, they won't buy this game.

As long as word of mouth is established, those who can't afford games now and can only come to Internet cafes for free, will be potential users in the future.

So the behavior of Internet cafes is the same no matter what.

He chatted with the Internet cafe owner for a while, and visited several Internet cafes next to the school, and found that those Internet cafes also had Spark Computer Manager and games installed.

But except for the network administrator and the boss's computer, no one bought a new image.

This is normal, because it has no real effect on the computer, just looks good.

However, it is worth celebrating that all these Internet cafes have installed "Guangling's Bizarre Adventure".

Shen Yi returned to his dormitory. He did not choose to go to class, but started working on the computer again: translating the game.

Due to limited energy, he only intends to translate into English, and does not consider other languages.

He has already contacted Steam and is planning to launch the game on Steam.

Steam is a relatively large foreign game platform that generally sells paid games and software.

But Shen Yi felt that Steam was a mess in Zhuxia, and the experience was very poor!
It's still the same in 2021, without much progress.

Moreover, there is no similar platform among Zhuxia's local enterprises. This is an opportunity!
The games they cooperate with are usually [-]-[-], and Steam takes [-]% of the game price.

They take away 10 yuan for 3 yuan, and 100 yuan for 30 yuan.

Maybe it is too black-hearted in the eyes of some people, but this is the norm in the industry.

Therefore, when Shen Yi was making games, he was determined to seize the domestic steam market.

Shen Yi was working when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Is there anyone there?"

Shen Yi was surprised for a while, he had never heard this voice before, it was very strange.

So he asked defensively: "What's the matter?"

"I want to find Mr. Shen Yi."

He opened the door, only to see a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes standing at the door.

This man is slightly fat, with a crew-shaven head, and a smile that seems to be born on his face, looking very kind.

"Hello, let me introduce myself. I am the HR manager of 720, Sun Xiao."

"Mr. Sun, I am the Shen Yi you are looking for. If you have anything to do, please sit down first." He opened the dormitory door and moved Du Yingjie's seat over.

"I've heard of Mr. Shen Yi's name for a long time. I didn't expect the real person to be so handsome. He really is a hero from a young age."

"Wonderful, you know me from the Xinghuo computer manager, right? In fact, I'm just an ordinary employee in Xinghuo Studio, not a hero."

When Sun Xiao heard Shen Yi's modest words, the smile on his face became more obvious.

"I wonder why Mr. Sun came to see me this time?" Shen Yi asked next.

"I'm here to find out about your Xinghuo Studio. We want to invest in Xinghuo Computer Butler."

"Well, then you may be disappointed, I can't make decisions about Xinghuo Studio."

"That's okay. Wouldn't it be enough to have the contact information of Spark Studio? I remember that Mr. Furuta Raku, who specializes in writing code, is a college student like you, right?"

"That's right, he is indeed a college student, but he has stopped going to school a long time ago. His talent for programming is quite monstrous, but he has long been hired by a company with a high salary."

"In Xinghuo Studio, I'm just a small person responsible for plot planning, material acquisition and posting on the Internet." The expression on Shen Yi's face gradually became serious.

"As for the name of this company, I'm sorry, I signed a non-disclosure agreement, I can't tell you, and I won't disclose other information."

"Can't you contact your company's executives?"

"Sorry, we seem to be competitors. I will report your request upwards. As for the high-level decision to cooperate with you, that's another story."

Sun Xiao couldn't hear it, but he still left his contact information and wanted Shen Yi to let him know.

He and the boss were right as they expected, this was indeed a mysterious company.

Otherwise, it is impossible to achieve such high-quality and fast updates with only a few people on the developer list.

Maybe Gu Tianle's code name is a group of very good programmers.

No programmer can write a program without bugs. It seems that the programmers at Spark Studio don't have any.

Not only is there no BUG, ​​but also when 720 and Xinghuo computer manager are opened together, 720 cannot take away Xinghuo's authority.

And Xinghuo has already prepared a response to being targeted!
But what is their purpose of hiding their heads and tails?

Could it be that you are doing something illegal?

Although Sun Xiao was well prepared for this trip and wanted to pry something out of Shen Yi's mouth, Shen Yi told himself very firmly that he had signed a non-disclosure agreement.

It seems that this trip is going to return in vain.

Before leaving, he glanced at Shen Yi's open computer.

C++, Maya, unity, what does he, a little guy responsible for posting, use so many software for?
When Sun Xiao left, he seemed to see a strange light flashing in Shen Yi's eyes.

After seeing off Sun Xiao, Shen Yi lay quietly on the chair.

Why hide it?

It's very simple, let your competitors figure out your situation, then you will be in a passive state.

It is difficult for an enterprise to deal with an enterprise, and it is also difficult to deal with a studio, but it is difficult to deal with a person...

I wonder what those immoral guys can do.

But Shen Yi said that Xinghuo was developed by a big company, and he tried his best to create a mysterious image of this company, so the other party would be afraid.
